Things I have recently spotted that may
be of interest to someone else:
Humor: (or, for some of us, deadly seriousness) 10
myths about introverts.
Politics: Wired has an article
about officers who believe that there is systematic incompetence at the highest levels of the military.
Science: In case there was any doubt, an
article in Answers Research Journal,
from Answers in Genesis, one of the leading Young-Earth Creationist organizations, concludes that "we can have confidence that the universe
really is as large as astronomers claim."
In case there was any doubt, and I know that there is, NOAA has
issued a report on the effects of climate change. The US had the
warmest year ever recorded, and world-wide sea level was higher than ever previously recorded.
The American
Geophysical Union, a large association of scientists who study the earth, including climate, has
placed the blame squarely on us: "Human-induced climate change requires urgent action. Humanity is the major influence on the global climate change
observed over the past 50 years."

Musings on science, the Bible, and fantastic literature (and sometimes basketball and other stuff).
God speaks to us through the Bible and the findings of science, and we should listen to both types of revelation.
The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I mostly use the World English Bible (WEB), because it is public domain. I am grateful.
