4th annual 3 Quarks Daily philosophy prize -- submissions end Sept. 3rd
The following is from
a post at 3 Quarks Daily:
Dear Readers, Writers, Bloggers,
We are very honored and pleased to announce that Justin E. H. Smith has
agreed to be the final judge for our 4th annual prize for the best blog
and online writing in the category of philosophy. (Details of the
previous three philosophy prizes can be seen by clicking on the names of
their respective judges here: Daniel Dennett, Akeel Bilgrami, and Patricia Churchland).
[...]
As usual, this is the way it will work: the nominating period is now
open, and will end at 11:59 pm EST on September 3, 2012. There will then
be a round of voting by our readers which will narrow down the entries
to the top twenty semi-finalists. After this, we will take these top
twenty voted-for nominees, and the four main editors of 3 Quarks Daily
(Abbas Raza, Robin Varghese, Morgan Meis, and Azra Raza) will select six
finalists from these, plus they may also add up to three wildcard
entries of their own choosing. The three winners will be chosen from
these by Justin Smith.
The first place award, called the "Top Quark," will include a cash
prize of one thousand dollars; the second place prize, the "Strange
Quark," will include a cash prize of three hundred dollars; and the
third place winner will get the honor of winning the "Charm Quark,"
along with a two hundred dollar prize.
