Friday Musical Interlude on Saturday

If you're looking for the Saturday Learning Series today, guess what, it's going to be a day late too.

A day late this week but not a dollar short.  This week's Friday Musical Interlude, the first ever on a Saturday, comes from MGMT.  The song from 2007 is called Kids.

The peaceful co-existence of God and science

Dr. Francis Collins, Director of the National Human Genome Project, spoke in 2007 about his belief in God (which 'evolved' from a position of atheism), and how it does not have to exist in conflict with a belief in, and a pursuit of science.

Food for thought for those on both sides of the God versus science equation.

2014 for full Afghanistan withdrawl?

President Obama said tonight he will complete the pullout of Afghanistan by 2014.  Here's Obama in 2007 saying he'll get them out in his first term.   He does have a reason for breaking the promise though - it's not about health care.



Just pointing it out.

Oh by the way, if I'm in the Taliban, this is good to know stuff.

UPDATE:  While I got the numbers wrong, my pre-speech assessment was still correct.
