UPDATE: Polls are now open.
Sir Francis Younghusband has been recognized with medals and a knighthood for his long and distinguished service to Her Majesty’s Empire. Now, his web design talents are being recognized by the blogosphere commons: ComingAnarchy is a 2005 Weblog Awards finalist for Best Blog Design! Yes, this beautiful Wordpress blog you see here was built from scratch by Younghusband. The design, the graphics, and the theme concept are his work alone—you won’t find this design anywhere else in the blogosphere.
Voting will be open for ten days from December 5th until December 15th, and each computer (ISP address) can vote once per 24 hour period. So please, vote early and vote often! The icon in the right sidebar will remain until December 15th.

And in the finest traditions of political backscratching, I hope you'll kindly consider Riding Sun for Best New Blog.
It's the only Japan, Asian, or International-themed blog in that category.

From a holistic point of view, CA is the one site that combines clever design with a consistent theme that fits to the content. That alone should be worth the award.
p.s.: watch those validation errors
p.p.s.: vote anarchy?

Re: validation errors. There are a couple of tiny things that ruin our passing of the test. But they are minor in effect and would take too much work to fix, so I am not worried to much about them. It would be nice to have a perfectly clean validation record though.

it's code's fine print that spoils the party, I don't know how many hours I've spent before I got an "all-clear":http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//iroke.de/wp/
Looking at CA's code, lots of it is just missing alt tags and omitted list tags, which shouldn't take too long to fix. I find it more difficult to write valid posts. Usually, there's an invalid character or missing tag somewhere ;-)
