New Skeptics' Circle is up, and more

The 109th Skeptic's Circle is up over at the Lay Scientist: The Skeptics' Circle #109: The Credibility Crisis Edition

In related news, Ben Goldacre has made a chapter of his book Bad Science freely available. It was left out of earlier edition because of a lawsuit he was involved in, but after that was resolved, it is now included in the new editions of the book. Those of us who have the older version, can find it online instead.
