Things I have recently spotted that may
be of interest to someone else:
Christianity: Christianity Today
has an article on how
the author learned to love her menstrual period.
Relevant tells us a number of things
that the Church is not, such as a political institution, a stronghold
against the world, or a building.
Computing: Gizmo's Freeware
provides an annotated list of the best
free games for Windows computers. (Many of these games are also
available for iOs and Android information appliances.)
Gizmo's also tells us about a site which offers 600
different free music streams.
The Environment: Climate
change denial is alive and well, according to this report on beliefs about
global climate change in the states that voted on March 1, Super Tuesday.
Health: National Public Radio reports on why
we are more likely to snack if we haven't had enough sleep.
Humor: (and politics) There is a web site, encouraging
US citizens to move to Cape Breton Island if Donald Trump wins the US Presidency. There are details on how to go about this. That's in Nova Scotia, by the way.
(or something) FiveThirtyEight reports that many
parents don't want their children to be born on February 29th.
Politics: NPR analyzes why
Republicans have won so many Congressional seats, but have had trouble winning the Presidency. (And the reverse.)
First Things looks at the Super
Tuesday exit polls, and finds that Donald
Trump really didn't do well among evangelical voters. The article also
points out that not all evangelicals are Republican. Indeed.
Science: (and music) Christianity Today
(!) discusses
perfect pitch.
Listverse suggests that we need 10
major advances in technology before we send anyone to Mars.
Listverse also comments on 10
ways that playing video games affects the brain.

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.
