I just wanted to point out the new Web Badge (to the left) that I've stuck on my side bar. This is the Open Access Day Synchroblogging Competition Winner badge.
Only those of us who have won the award can have the badge, so you better not download it and put it on your site. This is not some kind of cheap internet meme, but a real award and, as far as I know, the only real award I've won for blogging (other than cheap internet meme awards, of course).
I thank Dorothea Salo, my co-winner, for creating the badge!

Those wild and crazy guys over at SCQ have come up with the Order of the Science Scouts of Exemplary Repute and Above Average Physique, an organization of which I am proud to be a member. Maybe the physique bit is a stretch, but what the heck.
To kick off the new badge "I'm a marine biologist and, to be honest, I kind of hate dolphins",
Do you really want to let JanieBelle hear you saying that bit about the only real award?
Um, well, Janie knows I begged her for that reward, so it is a little different.
She made me beg.
Was that JanieBelle or Corporal Kate that made you beg? (Now I know what it takes.)
Not bad. I might have gone with "It's not a mere award. It's a badge of honor." But yours isn't bad--certainly more tailored to its intended audience. :)
