Unbelievable try from our Eagles. This is more in line with something you might see from a New Zealand All Black team that what you might expect from the lowly USA (in rugby terms anyway). Todd Clever was a force in every game, and Ngwenya’s speed was a sight to behold.
UPDATE: YouTube took down original […]
I sometimes wonder how my college hours might have been spent had YouTube been around back in the day. Probably not on something quite this elaborate, but who knows for certain.
In case you’ve ever thought what happens when you combine bored engineers with easy access to video distribution?, well, wonder no more.

Looks like iskorpitx got me. Luckily, it only affects my custom theme files (so far), so I’ve had to switch back to the default. I’ll try to fix it tonight (as well as upgrade to the newest release of wordpress).
UPDATE: Okay, I restored the hacked files, so the old theme is back. I really […]
The folks over at Maps of War have gone and done it again. They’ve produced a map showing the various kingdoms that have ruled the Middle East throughout history. This would actually be an excellent visual aid for Sunday School teachers struggling to put the Old Testament into it’s proper context.

I’ve honestly never read anything quite so moving before. It’s the tale of a very bad car crash told from the points of view of the responding officer, the ambulance driver, and the ER nurse.
I sit here stunned.
“The woman sitting in front of us was very upset and asked me how I could just sit there reading,” Katie Hayden said. “Bob’s been shot at. He’s been stabbed. He’s taken knives away. He knows how to handle those situations. I figured he would go up there and step on somebody’s neck, and that […]
From a religious perspective.
Folks tend to be fairly ignorant about most things, especially when they don’t concern their immediate family. And that’s probably as it should be; otherwise, we’d all be a nation of busybodies. Ignorance about history, though, can be dangerous as it leaves you without a foundation upon which to base […]
I realize that I’m a little late to this party, but allow me to add my hearty kudos to the amazing funtwo as the owner of one of the top 5 videos of all time. The really neat thing is that he’s utterly humble about the whole thing. Virginia Heffernan tracked down his identity for […]
but only if we get to go to the town of Lijiang.
As most everyone reading this blog site should know, Wendy and I traveled to China just about two years ago to pick up our daughter, Betsy Ye. We spent three days in Hong Kong followed by a little over a week […]
This is a really old post by Michael Yon, but it’s still good to reread it on occasion. It deals with the dangers of speculating on legal cases as well as the dangers of printing news items without their proper context. Please, do go read the whole thing.
