Some of my friends are involved in HopeKids (and there are even some familiar Intervarsity faces that popped up after nine years). Great organization, tough mission. They serve families whose children have serious illnesses. One of the simple things that they do is put events on the calendar – they host events to give the kids something to look forward to in the very near future. Check them out here.
Moms, this one’s for you. Check out EBLane’s We Know Mom. It’s a collection of research on how moms are responding to the current economy. My friend Gary, of Star Wars renown, has helped create/promote this.
This proves that Star Wars fans can actually hold serious jobs. (And talk to non-Star Wars women, contrary to Triumph’s assumptions. Thanks, Jeremy, for watching a talking dog at Bonnaroo with me.)
Something that I found, that you probably already have, is that the White House streams live footage on their site. Right now Obama is signing an act that allows the FDA to regulate tobacco. Check it out here.

That’s a really cool video of Sports Resort. It looks like it’ll be a good one.
I’m a little nervous about the Conduit, though. Did you see what famed gamer reporter naruto21312 said in his review?
“the conudit is going to fail
ok when i first look at the game it looked cool i was wrong to me the game looks like there are trying to copy bishock graphics suck and a shooting game on the wii no way this game is going to do good.
1st reason- alien enemy?????
2nd reason- the guns in the game are a combined of modern and furture
3rd reason- i was looking at the gameplay and i see the guy holding a ball just like bioshock
4th reason- like i sayed the graphics look suckish ”
Here’s one of my favorite rebuttals:
“Well looks like I don’t have to worry, because I preordered The Conduit, not ‘the conudit.’”
