When are you watching?

Hope you watch soon…

Gonna tell you right now

That I’m blogging to you…

Dappled Things: Papal coronations and “Sic transit gloria mundi.” (Scroll up for a minor possible correction, but the anecdote I linked is well worth your time.)

Peace in the Family/Become What You Are is starting a Lenten series looking at the papal encyclical Salvifici Doloris, on the meaning of suffering. I’m very much looking forward to this.

Regions of Mind: Catholics and war; two interesting posts on the state budget crises.

Telford Work is back! And he’s brown!

The Volokh Conspiracy: Fascinating snippets of an article I can’t read, boo hiss. On the role of geography and exile in securing Greek cultural dominance.

And The Rat reviews a book on honor killings.
