More photos from La Jolla:
A very random chair.
The tree looks kinda like it’s greeting its own shadow.
My uncle is also a photographer…
Actually, a sizable chunk of my La Jolla photos this year are from one morning photo walk. Between that and the Torrey Pines Nature Reserve, that’s probably 70-80% of my shots right there.

PA State Senator Jim Ferlo and Representative Eric Massa (NY-29) at the Netroots Nation closing keynote. You wouldn’t think it to look at him, but Ferlo is a total DFH.

Three Amigos Edition, as Adam Bonin, Arshad Hasan, and Raven Brooks all came out on stage together.
First, Adam led the audience through a surprisingly charming rendition of Frere Jacques.
Then Raven explained some stuff.
And then Arshad rifled through his own wallet (not pictured).

There were some panels I just didn’t get a lot of photos of, due to either time or lighting constraints. Some photos from the campaign finance reform panel, and the “Building A 21st Century Economy” panel.
Professor Lawrence Lessig. He gave a fantastic presentation on our corrupt finance system and the need for public campaign financing, but the house lights never came back up afterward…
Dave Donnelly of the Public Campaign Action Fund.
Dave again. The low light makes his eyes look like they’re almost all pupil, which is either kinda cool or kinda scary.
SEIU Secretary-Treasurer Anna Burger, and economist Dean Baker.
Moderator Kevin Drum. Trivia: His old blog, Political Animal, was my introduction to the world of blogs and commenting. So you all have him to blame.
Dean Baker and NJ Governor John Corzine.

In which I make all the panelists hate me:

Darcy is overwhelmed. Actually, I think she was cracking up. Adam is only mildly amused.
Eden is skeptical.
Holy crap, Matt is going to leap over the table and beat me to death. And Arshad is no help at all.

Talking about Sotomayor, the Supreme Court, and the Constitution. No big whoop.

Doug watches Rep. Jerry Nadler explain stuff.

OMG, Representative Jay Inslee has a microphone for a nose!
Oops, my bad, it was just an optical illusion – I was so eager to get the scoop that I forgot to check my facts. I would like to apologize to Congressman Inslee and his family, and to anyone else who might have been offended by my totally understandable mistake.

And here is the other half of the not-on-the-stage-at-the-same-time showdown between Arlen Specter and Joe Sestak. Sestak’s manner was aggressive to the point of almost angry (he grabbed or poked Ari Melber’s arm a few times), and he flubbed his lines a few times. He was also rather spectacularly stumped by a question about how he would reach out to the Pennsylvania netroots.
I’m still voting for him, though.

Hey look, it’s my new *cough* Democratic senator, Arlen Specter! He actually made a very good case for himself, provided you don’t know anything about his actual legislative record.
Arlen looks out at the audience and wonders what he’s gotten himself into.
Reviewing his index cards.
Behold, he smiles!
If I blow this up all the way, I can almost read his index card, but it’s just a little too blurry. Phooey.
Arlen gestures very sincerely.
