Firefox has been driving me crazy for the last year or two. It’s a great browser. It feels right. It’s add-ons are its killer feature. No other browser has the right set of add-ons and so I’ve never switched. But Firefox has been suffering for a long time and I had no idea what it…

24 Hour Biorhythm…even without DNA
So, a new article, “Ancient body clock keeps all life on time: studies,” talks about the universal human 24 hour body clock even in components of the body without DNA, like red blood cells. Reading the article made me grateful and thankful, and awed of God and his creation. I had a good chuckle when,…
To Tunisia, Yemen, and Egypt: We salute you!
Keep believing. Keep fighting. Seize the day!
Oil from Bacteria
Check this out: A brave new world of fossil fuels on demand. A US company is claiming to be producing “liquid hydrocarbons” from bacteria. Liquid hydrocarbons are what oil companies refine into synthetic crude and then gasoline and other oil-based products. One of the challenges for young earth creationism is the great amount of oil…
Awesome is a God word
I’m not sure who started this but there’s something to the admonition, that I’ve been hearing from James MacDonald, to reserve the word “awesome” for God. It may seem like a petty thing, a legalistic thing, but I have to agree that, in this day and age, our language used about God is so anemic,…

Tal & Acacia
Update 2011-01-06: I’ve surprised myself by putting this album on quite a bit recently. The simple, sincere lyrics mixed with a refreshing style really hit a certain sweet spot. Give this one a listen! Found this two-sister duo, Tal & Acacia, on iTunes recently and was pleasantly surprised to hear a unique mix of styles…
The Chronicles of Narnia by Focus on the Family Radio Theatre
Focus on the Family may be many things but I will always be impressed by the quality, competence and passion poured into the Radio Theatre presentations of each of the seven books in C.S. Lewis’ Chronicles of Narnia. When the first movie came out, The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, I felt quite let…
New Year’s Day 2011
Happy new year! I hope the light of the Son shines upon each day more fully than the last!
New Year’s Eve 2010
Goodbye, 2010, we hardly knew ye! Twenty-Ten has been a watershed year for me though I never really considered it like that before writing this. Many personally significant things have happened this year for me and I feel, perhaps, as if I am riding the crest of a wave, one which I’m both exhilarated to…
