The benefits of mustard
This one’s for Coy and those of you not fans of mustard… Eric’s got some new benefits to the great condiment.
Driving through the Sonoma wine country, one might notice fields of yellow mustard plants growing with the short vines. Mustard is grown near grapes because it has a symbiotic effect on the soil, restoring nitrogen for the grapes to grow.
Mustard is apparently a super food as well.
Boy… I tell you what, there’s no telling what you’ll find on this blog.
Religion, politics, technology and mustard. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I do.
Mere Christianity
I started reading Mere Christianity again last night.
In just two chapters I’m again amazed at Lewis’ reasoning and thoughts.
I led a study on it several years back and really enjoyed it.
Some of the ideas/thoughts brought up in the first two chapters include morality and a natural moral law.
How do we know there’s a natural moral law? Who sets the standard? Is there a moral law? Are we born with it or do we just learn it? What do yall think?
I remember a guest we had on Lighthouse21 one night who believed there was no moral absolute. In fact he argued that there were no absolutes. We asked him if he absolutely believed that.
Sure enough – he said “yes.”
Hmmmm.
WWE asks AJ Pierzynski to appear at WMXXII
From wrestling-news.com:
Dave Meltzer reported this in his most recent Observer Newsletter and Dixie Carter confirmed it last night in an interview. Recently WWE had contacted Chicago White Sox star AJ Pierzynski to appear at Wrestlemania 22. If the name sounds familiar, that’s the same player that appeared on TNA not too long ago. Anyway he turned down WWE’s offer, as he realized the spot was more to ‘slap TNA in the face’ than wanting Pierzynski himself. And you know Pierzynski wasn’t interested in the money either as he already makes millions from Major League Baseball.
Getty images to purchase iStockphoto
Getty images has agreed to purchase iStockphoto.com for $50-million.
According to press releases, Getty plans to continue offering the user submitted, stock photo service.
I wonder if this means Getty will also add some of their high-end, high-priced stock photos to the library.
Burgler checks e-mail while robbing house
Lori Menzel of the town of Kewaskum said a burglar left his Yahoo account open after checking his personal e-mail on the computer at her home.
“He never logged out,” she said, adding: “He made himself at home here. He spent some time in our bedroom trying on my husband’s clothes. I could tell he went through some of my clothes.”
