We\u2019ve been on Spring Break, and this is what I found this week \u2026 including a picture of Safety Harbor:<\/div>\n

My links aren\u2019t as complete as usual, but I have a few, and I want to alert you to a post coming later today by Matthew Elliott about Christians and emotions. (And thanks to IVP for the ad above: click on \u201cLikewise\u201d and check out the offerings.)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Sad news about World Vision in Pakista<\/b><\/a>n.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A good pastor, a good author, and a good blogger \u2014 moves to Beliefnet. Check out Jazz Theologian<\/b><\/a>.<\/div>\n
Speaking of good theologians and scholars, Richard Bauckham<\/b><\/a> now has a website for his stuff.<\/div>\n
Yet another great theologian, and one of my favorites: John Stott story<\/b><\/a>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Tony Jones ran a series on his paper for the Society of Pentecostal<\/a> Studies: Part one <\/b><\/a>and the Conclusion<\/b><\/a> (you can access the rest at this site).<\/div>\n
Derek Leman <\/b><\/a>has a nice collection of links for Passover.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Mother knows best<\/b><\/a> \u2026 (HT: JT)<\/div>\n
Ted Gossard<\/b><\/a> on testing by the fruit.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
David Opderbeck\u2019s post at our site drew a response from Jay Richards<\/b><\/a>.<\/div>\n

Meanderings in the News<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
First read this: Ignoring the news<\/b><\/a>. (HT: AR)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"Soakedbooks.jpg\"<\/a><\/span>1. On building better teachers<\/b><\/a>.<\/div>\n
2. If your books get soaked<\/b><\/a> \u2026 what to do? Freeze them!<\/div>\n
3. Nick Kristof\u2019s suggestion<\/b><\/a> will appeal to the younger set.<\/div>\n
4. Trends in insurance coverage<\/b><\/a>?<\/div>\n
5. Victor Davis Hanson on Obama\u2019s foreign policies<\/b><\/a>.<\/div>\n
6. Biden, Obama, and Israel<\/a>:\u00a0\u201cBibi, you heard me say before, progress occurs in the Middle East when everyone knows there is simply no space between the United States and Israel,\u201d Biden said. \u201cThere is no space between the United States and Israel when it comes to Israel\u2019s security. And for that reason, and many others, addressing Iran\u2019s nuclear program has been one of our administration\u2019s priorities.\u201d And then it happened.<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
7. Prostate cancer PSA testing<\/b><\/a>, by the one who discovered PSA: \u201cEven then, the test is hardly more effective than a coin toss. As I\u2019ve been trying to make clear for many years now, P.S.A. testing can\u2019t detect prostate cancer and, more important, it can\u2019t distinguish between the two types of prostate cancer \u2014 the one that will kill you and the one that won\u2019t.\u201d And, if that wasn\u2019t enough, Ablin closes with this: \u201cI never dreamed that my discovery four decades ago would lead to such a profit-driven public health disaster. The medical community must confront reality and stop the inappropriate use of P.S.A. screening. Doing so would save billions of dollars and rescue millions of men from unnecessary, debilitating treatments.\u201d<\/span><\/div>\n
8. Robert Jenson<\/b><\/a> on the loss of story.<\/div>\n
9. Did you see this about Kansas City public schools<\/b><\/a>?<\/div>\n
10. The Midnight Knitter<\/b><\/a>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Meanderings in Sports<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The most notable story of the week was the UConn\u2019s women basketball team, now with a winning streak of 72 games. \u00a0One writer thinks they\u2019re too good<\/b><\/a>, but I don\u2019t recall that being said about Johnny Wooden\u2019s great teams. Gino has done an incredible job finding talent and coaching the talent into a unified team. One of the greatest sports teams ever.<\/div>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
