Things I have recently spotted that may
be of interest to someone else:
Christianity: A Christianity Today
blogger has advised a woman, who is most likely pregnant
with a Down syndrome fetus, to keep the baby.
Relevant tells us how
to pray when we don't feel like it.
Education: National Public Radio reports that (surprise!) teachers do have favorites, and they get better grades.
Health: FiveThirtyEight tells us that our
brains are pre-programmed to draw wrong conclusions, at least some of
the time.
Politics: The Jerusalem Post says
that the Netanyahus
have been accused of lavish household spending, at taxpayer expense.
(The possible scandal is called "bottlegate," because a lot of the spending was on alcohol.)
Science: Wired describes some
examples of really
strange sexual behavior in animals, and considers the question, "Why
is there sex?" (Many animals can reproduce without it.)
The Atlantic discusses the precision
of clocks, including the idea of the Leap Second.
