la quercia prosciutto, profiled in the new york times magazine. how awesome is that?
the piece reports that, while herb and kathy were developing their prosciutto process, "The couple would move their Volvo wagon out of the garage to weigh and salt legs, then age them in their guest bedroom."
i know that this is true: during the terrible horrible no good very bad summer of 2003, when i visited la and her family, i slept soundly in that very guest bedroom, the pork legs swaying slightly above my head.

by day a political scientist! by night a significantly less intellectually responsible political scientist!

welcome to my blog. i'm a ph.d. candidate in political science at yale, a native midwesterner, and a happy californian. right now my research is about armed organizations and how they organize their violence against noncombatants, or fail to. i'm also interested in intentional community, gender in the academy, grad school pedagogy, fat politics, the religious left, my partner, our local farmers' market and idiosyncratic capitalization practices.
