A Newfeed Game

The world appears to be exploding or perhaps imploding in response to today's Supreme Court decision.  And while I acknowledge the importance of the decision, I still (naively) go the Facebook to see cat memes and stalk "friends' " baby updates.  So, here's today's game:

Fish Saving Lives

As I processes the lovely and meaty conversations I have had the past few days, I want to share a little bit of happy. Here's a story about how a little creative problem solving in the form of an iron fish saves lives.

I read something similar today about iodine bindis, although as far as I am aware, it does not yet have a proven record. Either way, I love the idea of using a piece of a culture to help a culture, rather than pushing our paradigm on others.

Life Updates

It's finally time to announce a major life change in the works!  I have left my job (a couple months ago, actually) and am staying home with the Sleeping Dragon until August when I start doctoral work at the Catholic University of America.

I registered for classes last week, which makes it real enough to put on the internet.  I am pursuing a PhD in Moral Theology and Ethics, fully funded (yay, no loans!).  So one day, I get to wear fancy robes.
