Guest blogger: Stef from Cupcake Project
Today's guest blogger is Stef of Cupcake Project, a site many of you know well, and she also runs Food Interviews.
I hate to admit it, but when I first stumbled upon Cupcakes Take the Cake, I thought it was silly. What good is a blog about cupcakes with no recipes? Boy, was I wrong!! CTTC is wrappers down one of the best cupcake blogs on the web, and I was so honored to be asked to write a guest post here.
Me in my acting phase. I'm the one in the red bonnet. Clearly this is an 80's photo taken long before I met my photographer husband.

Guest blogger: How to Eat a Cupcake
Today's guest blogger is Cassie from How to Eat a Cupcake, the cupcake recipe and baking site where you can vote on which cupcakes she'll make next (the current options are Chocolate Chestnut Cupcakes, Peppermint Chocolate Cupcakes, and Pear & Chocolate Cupcakes - Peppermint Chocolate are way ahead!). Thanks, Cassie, for this awesome cupcake gift guide and do be sure to check out How to Eat a Cupcake for many fun recipe ideas. Recently I was asked by one of the fine women of "Cupcakes Take The Cake" to participate as a guest blogger for the month of December. I feel so honored that they thought of me! They were one of the sources that spawned my love for cupcakes about a year and a half ago. Thanks again. [lien] [EN]
First Annual Cleveland Cupcake Project
From the blog feeding maybelle comes news of The First Annual Cleveland Cupcake Project. Today I announce and begin the Great Cleveland Cupcake Project. The task I offer to all is to tell me about your favorite store-bought cupcake in Cleveland. While I have heard, there are wonderful cupcakes to be purchased outside Cleveland (unlikely as it is), this challenge is about Cleveland. In addition, I know that many of you make a mean cupcake. But, homemade cupcakes are another challenge all together. This challenge is about plugging your favorite cupcake and your favorite local bakery. This contest will be two-fold: First, on or around June 15, I will post a round-up of all of the images and blurbs about the bakeries. If one bakery gets many votes. [lien] [EN]

Guest blogger: Sandy Ploy, Milwaukee Cupcake Queen of No One Puts Cupcake in a Corner
This one is from Sandy Ploy, aka the Milwaukee Cupcake Queen of the blog No One Puts Cupcake in the Corner (as with Jessie, I'm hoping to get out to Milwaukee in 2009 so she can give me the guided cupcake tour) Also, from now on there will be one guest blog post a day. It was my fault for not getting Jessie's up in time. Hello to the readers of Cupcakes Take the Cake! It is an honor to be guest blogging on the site that I often refer to as "the mothership" of the cupcake blog world. I was fortunate to get to meet Nichelle and Rachael earlier this year and now I get to meet more of their readers as well! I have been wracking my brain trying to decide what to talk about. How about a little about me and a lot more about those that inspire me. [lien] [EN]
Guest bloggers for our blogiversary month!
As you hopefully know by now, we are celebrating four years of cupcake blogging this month! To help us celebrate, we've invited some of our favorite cupcake and food bloggers to join us and will be posting their guest posts and links to their blogs (many of which I hope you are already regular readers of) this month and will do a roundup at the end, starting today. We'll still be posting our regular cupcake-y goodness too. [lien] [EN]
Thanks, Guest-Bloggers!
Thanks to the lovely guest-bloggers who have written with us this week. This summer, we’re staggering the guest-blogging slots, which means that some of the current guests will be leaving and some will be staying on for another week. We’ll have two new writers joining us this week as well. All of the guest bloggers will each be staying on for two weeks. Please show the guest bloggers the same courtesy and respect that you all show the regular Feministe bloggers. Obviously feel free to push back and debate, but keep in mind that they’ve been invited to be here, and we expect a level of respect that would be appropriate to offer any “real-life” guest. Please also keep in mind that we picked guest-bloggers who write about a diversity of topics. [lien] [EN]
Hello from Another Guest Blogger
Hi, all. I’m excited to be joining you for the next two weeks as a guest blogger. (Thanks, Jill, for the invitation!) By way of introduction, a bit about me: I’m a member of the editorial and publishing collective behind make/shift magazine. I also freelance as a writer and editor and contribute to the group LGBTQ blog The Bilerico Project. In addition to making media, I find life better all around when participating in activism and community work in many forms. I’m active with Resource Generation, a group of young progressive-to-radical people with class privilege who are working together to figure out how to leverage our resources for social justice in ways that are accountable to mixed-class movements. And I love being part of a local produce co-op, cooking for community dinner/discussions. [lien] [EN]
Guest bloggers: Blondie and Brownie
Blondie and Brownie burst onto the New York City foodblogging scene and have been seemingly everywhere all at once. Their blog always makes me hungry and every time I talk to them them seem to know all about obscure food joints and are whipping up deliciousness. Like Brownie's insanely delicious bacon-topped Elvis cupcakes (get her recipe here), which you can have for free, tonight from 6-9 pm at our party! White Rabbit, 145 East Houston Street, NYC. To the person who asked about the 21+ part, it's at a bar. You'll have to ask them if kids are allowed. Also, I covet their food photography skills. Looking forward to many more cupcake adventures and posts from them. And now I present you with Blondie and Brownie: Happy Birthday Cupcakes Take the Cake! We've both been big fans of CTTC for a long time and we are super excited to celebrate with you tonight and to guest blog on your awesome site. [lien] [EN]
Guest Bloggers Wanted for Tony Hung’s Blog
I’m a huge fan of Tony Hung’s Deep Jive Interests and thrilled that he’s opening his blog doors to guest bloggers, hoping to give them the necessary exposure many want. In a little over two years, Tony turned his blog into a high traffic site with his insightful and challenging thinking and writing. It lead to a gig on the Blog Herald which turned into an editor role which he left recently. He is also a doctor-in-training and now faces some long hours of study and work and he needs help to keep his blog active and going for the next couple of months. If you want your unique and passionate voice heard on an innovative and thought-provoking blog, and a chance to reach a new audience, this is the time. Go tell Tony you want to guest blog and maybe you will be one of the lucky ones. [lien] [EN]
A Tale of Two Recanters and their Friend, L.A. Times “Investigative” Reporter Chuck Philips: Part One [By Guest Blogger WLS]
[Posted by WLS] [This post is by guest blogger WLS, and not by Patterico. It concerns a topic which Patterico has alluded to previously but has expressed a reluctance to post about himself, for reasons mentioned below.] Here is the basic background as a setup here. In the mid-1990s there erupted a juvenile “feud” between East Coast and West Coast “Rappers,” with the two primary antagonists being Bad Boy Records (headed by Sean “Puffy” Combs), and Death Row Records (headed by Suge Knight). In November 1994, popular unaffiliated rapper Tupac Shakur was beaten and shot outside a recording studio in New York, supposedly because he was not showing sufficient respect to the East Coast group. This incident was the subject of a now discredited story published by L.A. Times reporter Chuck Philips on March 17. [lien] [EN]
A Tale of Two Recanters — Part Two [Posted by Guest Blogger WLS]
[Posted by WLS] In case you missed it in the title and the first line above, this post is written by guest blogger WLS, and not by Patterico. Returning to the story of the sordid history of Chuck Philips and his reporting on the murders of Tupac Shakur and Christopher Wallace, aka “Biggie Smalls”, I mentioned at the end of this post that the recantation by Waymond Anderson was only the most recent episode where a witness recanted after having previously implicated Suge Knight and David Mack — and by implication the LAPD, Mack’s employer at the time. A few more facts to make the background of this post more understandable. Most of this is drawn from a lengthy Rolling Stone article by Randall Sullivan from 2005, which explains the full background for anyone interested. [lien] [EN]
Future Feministe Guest-Blogger is Looking for Suggestions
Help her out: I'm currently preparing for a guest posting stint over at Feministe, which will start in about a week. I'm planning to make a series of posts about why women, and feminists, should care about economics. I've got lots of ideas of my own, but since this blog's audience is often pretty skewed towards the econ side, I thought I'd ask for suggestions. Economists, feminist economists, feminists who care about economics - what do you wish your fellow feminists knew about economics? Is there a particular concept that is often misunderstood? A branch of research they should pay more attention to? If you make a suggestion that I haven't thought up myself already, and I use it, I'll be happy to credit you for the idea by name, link, or both. Of course, you'll just have to trust me on that one.

The Dismal Guest Blogger
Hello everyone – this is your newest guest blogger, reporting for duty! My name is Allison Martell, and I write about feminism and economics at Economic Woman. I also contribute to the group blog over at Shameless Magazine. Like Shameless, I’m based in Toronto, where I supplement my stats homework with cycling, vegetarian cooking, and productivity geekery. I started Economic Woman in reckless moment shortly after WAM! 2008. I say reckless because I'm only marginally qualified to write about this stuff – most econ bloggers are professors, or at least graduate students, and my only relevant experience is as a freelance journalist and undergraduate economics student. But economics can be a lonely discipline for a woman, a feminist, really any sort of leftist. I wanted a place to chronicle my own intellectual development. [lien] [EN]
Marcella Chester Guest Blogger
Thanks to Jill for inviting me to be a guest blogger on Feministe for the next 2 weeks. My name is Marcella Chester and I’ve been blogging about sexual violence and related issues at Abyss2hope: A rape survivor’s zigzag journey into the open for over 2 years now. Because of my experiences and the gendered nature of most sex crimes, I write primarily about girls and women being assaulted by boys and men. I also founded the Carnival Against Sexual Violence which comes out on the 1st and 15th of every month with a submission deadline 3 days earlier. Before I started blogging, I was a volunteer victim advocate which included answering my local rape crisis line, going to the hospital to be with rape victims and going to the law enforcement center as sex crimes were reported.

PhysioProf Guest Blogger
Many thanks to Jill for inviting me to guest blog here at Feministe for the next two weeks! I was totally shocked and excited to receive her invitation. Kudos to Feministe for doing so much to help raise the voices of smaller bloggers, both with annual summer guest blogging (which I know is totally altruistic, and has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with lightening the load on the permanent authors! lolz!) and Shameless Self-Promotion Sunday. I am an author of two blogs, the eponymous PhysioProf and DrugMonkey on the ScienceBlogs network, where I co-blog with DrugMonkey himself. At PhysioProf, I rant and rave about the antics of right-wing wackaloon fuckwit assholes and a variety of other political/societal topics. At DrugMonkey, I write about the non-scientific aspects of the biomedical research enterprise. [lien] [EN]
Another Word on Guest-Bloggers
Thanks to all the great guest-bloggers that have contributed to this space, and who continue to contribute. Y’all have been awesome. So I’m frustrated to have to post this message again, but here goes: Commenters: You are totally welcome to disagree and argue with the guest-bloggers, just as you argue and disagree with the regular bloggers. Have at it — discuss, engage, debate. But no one here is welcome to treat the bloggers with disrespect. Personal attacks will not be tolerated. If you don’t like a particular guest-blogger, either challenge them on the merits of their posts or don’t read their posts. I don’t really understand why the tone in our comments sections has gotten so ugly lately, but I’m not liking it and I frankly don’t have the time or patience to monitor it right now. [lien] [EN]
Yet Another Guest Blogger Introduction
Good day, Feministe readers! My name is Sam, I blog at the Xyre, and I am absolutely tickled as punch to be guest blogging here for the next two weeks. The guest bloggers so far this summer have been terrific writers with some interesting things to say, and I hope I can live—or at least blog—up to their examples. Obligatory, extremely condensed information about me: I am a twenty-odd single Jewish MTF living in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, where I am a grad student by day and multi-interested nerd by night, or whenever I have time left over. The word in days gone by for someone achieved in a wide variety of subjects was polymath, but for the most part, my achievements are as yet mere aspirations. My major area of interest is ancient religion and the development of religions. [lien] [EN]
Guest Blogger Intro
Hi Feministe readers! My name is Octo and I blog at Astarte's Circus. I am very excited to be chosen to be part of such impressive company for the next two weeks. My blogging is kind of an odd mix with very little rhyme or reason. I like to blog about women and work – balancing family and work, balancing desire for money and desire to make a difference. I've had a lot of jobs and blog a bit about some of them more so than others. Among other things, I've been an engineer, auto company drone, lawyer, internet exec, and stripper. Now I'm a legal recruiter, a partner in a small search firm. I've been doing it eight years, and it's what I'll be doing for the next ten plus. After that I'd like to start a nonprofit focusing on career counseling and school counseling targeting low-income women and girls. [lien] [EN]
