The sirens watched their blogs for me\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

Baraita<\/strong>: \u201cThis post is actually intended to pick up on a passing comment I made last year, in which I suggested some sort of reading group for bloggers \u2014 or regular blog-commenters for that matter \u2014 who\u2019d enjoy discussing books of Jewish interest <\/a>in the English language. The comments indicate that (a) several people are very interested and (b) we do not want to get into the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which certainly works for me. \u2026We\u2019d want to pick books which are in print and not horrifically expensive (so much for all the Yale Judaica hardcovers), and I\u2019m guessing we\u2019d want to allow about a month for people to read, blog, and discuss.\u201d Sound good? Get in touch with Naomi Chana! Via Kesher Talk<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mark Shea<\/strong>: Interesting, basic post answering various Protestant objections to Catholicism<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Marriage Movement<\/strong>: NPR, unlike the New York Times<\/em><\/a>, manages to interview one actual poor person <\/a>when discussing a program for poor people. Let\u2019s hear it for the Fourth Estate. <\/p>\n

Everyone has already linked to Slate\u2019s series on \u201c liberal hawks reconsidering the war<\/a>.\u201d I haven\u2019t read it yet, but it looks worthwhile, so here it is in case you somehow missed it.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
