Mark Fiore's GU appearance
Given that this event was sponsored by the Journalism department, I'm a little surprised this article isn't credited - Pulitzer Prize-Winning Cartoonist Satires Politics (October 28, 2010). Fiore was a good speaker, and showed about 5 of his cartoons.

Beeler tops Cartoons & Cocktails auction updated
Steve Artley went to Cartoons & Cocktails last night and tells us, "Nate Beeler stole the show with one of his toons auctioning for 2100 buckeroos. That is a record for the C&C event. Actually, yours truly held the record for a few years at $1750, but am happy to pass the baton to the next generation of political renderers."
Nate says the cartoon that sold is his September 1st one, pictured above. You can see all his cartoons at the Washington Examiner site, which even though I'm a friend of his and opposed to the Examiner's political stance, I must say are excellent.
