  • Politics: Michaelle Jean became Canada’s Governor-General yesterday. Many decry this as a purely politically-correct move by the Prime Minister, as Jean is a black, female Hatian immigrant – a bit of a strange choice to be representative of Canadians.
  • Wishlist: Here is a gift for the hiker or camper in your life. The Outdoor Bible (NASB) is a tear-resistant, waterproof Bible. It is quite a neat little innovation!
  • Du Jour: Dan Edelen wraps up his controversial series on The Myths of Homeschooling. I’ve long-since learned that taking on home schooling parents can be a daunting task!
  • Media: The Times would have us believe that belief in and worship of God are not only unnecessary for a healthy society but may actually contribute to social problems. Peter Glover comments.
