    Law: The American NAtional Park Police seem to believe a man handing out poppies (what we Canadians know as a symbol of war veterans) is a panhandler.

    Evil?: GetReligion comments on the story of a young man who killed himself by overdose while many watched over webcam feed.

    Reading: Tim Challies posts a series of tips on how to read better.

    And just a simple quote:

    Every age has its own outlook. It is especially good at seeing certain truths and specially liable to make certain mistakes. We all, therefore, need to keep the clean sea breeze of the centuries blowing through our minds… by reading old books.

    Aid Work: The Taliban shoots to death a Christian woman working with the handicapped in Kabul. (Can’t have Christians doing nice stuff for the disabled, after all). The BBC does a special report on the dangers facing aid workers

    More U.S. Politics: William Kristol in the New York Times writes on the question of intellectualism and populism in politics.

    Canadian Law: Ezra Levant (who gets many complaints against him in human rights tribunals) points out the troubling fact that the federal commission is apparently censoring the accused’s defense.

    Archaeology: The tomb of one of Marcus Aurelius’ generals is found in Rome.

    Politics (sorta): Kenyan officials want an upgrade to the airport in Kisumu (Kenya) so that Air Force One can land there if Barack Obama is elected president. Obama also has a beer named after him there.

    Religion and speech: Apparently it’s anti-Hindu to report the anti-Christian violence in Orissa. After all, it’s the missionaries’ fault for actually giving people an option other than Hinduism.

    College Ministries: Russel Moore writes about the need to be not just in a campus ministry, but also a Church.
