Things I have recently spotted that may
be of interest to someone else:
The Arts:
Christianity: Christianity Today on why the
news isn't as important as most of us seem to think it is.
Finance: (or something) China is to open the
world's longest over-ocean bridge today, according to National
Public Radio.
History: (or something) From the New York Times, a map
of every building in the US, with some accompanying text.
Humor: (or something) Relevant reports that a
man ordered two glasses of water in a restaurant, and left a $10,000 tip.
Politics: Christianity Today has reported
on a survey of evangelical voters. Sojourners has criticized
the methodology of the survey.
Women
are often treated badly in South Korea, according to National Public
Radio. One symptom is that voyeurs place spy cameras in public bathrooms.
Science: Christianity Today also has an essay on how,
and why, God seems to stay hidden -- not immediately visible.
Earther reports that climate
change is expanding tick infestations on moose in New England, killing lots of moose.
Sports: (and science) A professor at the University of Illinois has
produced the physics of
baseball.
The graphic used in these posts is from NASA, hence, I believe, it is
public domain.
Thanks for looking!
I worked with Al Nathan when he was a nuclear physicist. I wish I could work with him now as the official physicist of baseball! I want that gig.
