A new thing revisited
I have been playing with my new Droid the last few days. I have found cool apps and the browser is great! The camera isn’t bad either.
A new test for something different
I have a new app that let’s me blog from my Android. Cool.
Teens and barriers

We have been seeing more of this at the youth group: For today’s teenagers, it’s less about breaking down barriers than retreating behind them. Anxiety levels are rising among the young, thanks perhaps to a mix of political events and “paranoid parenting.” Recent surveys suggest as many as one in five teens now suffers from [...]
Which way to live, and/or?
I sometimes get the feeling that we could be doing better in church, than we do, and it is easy for me to go off to the extreme if I see something that looks “cool”. I have been tempering that as of late. I’m trying to moderate my initial enthusiasm for a program or speaker [...]

Pro-Whale Writer Calls Sea Shepherd Stupid
Ouch: “Let me be clear. I’m pro-whale. I think the Japanese should immediately disband the Institute of Cetacean Research and stop hunting whales in the Southern Ocean. I think the Australian Government should continue to put diplomatic pressure on Japan, and I think Sea Shepherd and other environmental organisations should continue to protest and raise [...]
Why I am more libertarian…
I think that this is one of the reasons. Not that you shouldn’t regulate some things, but when you want to switch grapes and the government won’t let you…
My thoughts on Climategate
I was going to write something longer, but the video from Canadian Broadcasting Company sums up my ideas. My position has always been that the science, based on model predictions is not complete and that the physics incorporated in the models while always getting better will not emulate the world perfectly. There has been some [...]
