Here’s a round-up of bloggers who are writing about Cato this week:

- Writing at the Adam Smith Institute [blog](http://www.adamsmith.org/blog/environment/opening-up-peer-reviews-200903053047/), Phillip Salter discusses Patrick J. Michaels’s [proposal](https://www.cato.org/dailypodcast/podcast-archive.php?podcast_id=845) that scientific articles should be available online for public comment.

- Penning his thoughts on Obama’s plan to raise taxes on oil and gas usage, [Wintery Knight](http://winteryknight.wordpress.com/2009/03/04/obama-raises-taxes-on-oil-and-gas-to-stop-global-warming/) cites Jerry Taylor’s [research](https://www.cato.org/pub_display.php?pub_id=5187) that shows why similar price control programs didn’t work in the 1970s.

- Reihan Salam quotes [William Niskanen](https://www.cato.org/2006/05/11/starve-the-beast-just-does-not-work/) on *The Atlantic*’s [Washington blog](http://politics.theatlantic.com/2009/03/starving_the_beast_or_feeding_the_beast.php) in a post about the “starve the beast” theory that says lawmakers can slow government’s growth by lowering taxes and running up deficits.

- [Think Progress](http://thinkprogress.org/) blogger Matthew Yglesias [responds](http://yglesias.thinkprogress.org/archives/2009/03/why_were_summitting_about_health_care.php) to Michael Cannon’s work on health care reform in a post about Obama’s White House health care summit.

Cochrane’s Cato [paper](https://www.cato.org/pub_display.php?pub_id=9986) on free market solutions to health care security.
