A great article on parents, children, and videogames. Sometimes I think the parents who complain most about violent videogames are the most mindless. Thanks for sharing Mike.

What NASA Means to America's Future

I not so secretly want to work at NASA when I 'grow up'. My grandfather tested rockets at NASA. Also, I love Mr. Tyson's ties.

Texas Schools Board Rewrites US History With Lessons Promoting God and Guns

Media_httpstaticguimc_obelm

I'm happy to hear that California, the state I currently live in, is considering passing a law that will ban the use of whatever books this Texas school board churns out. Barring that, I guess I'll have to consider moving to Canada because I'm an aspiring scientist who doesn't buy into Creationism and is married to a Jewish husband. I might as well be one of Satan's minions to these guys...horns included of course.

Thanks for sharing Shaun. This is a great story. If Spider-Man called me asking for help...I'd be beside myself.
