While it isn't in my line of things, this website generated by a group of DC area professors and students may be of interest to many readers.

I consider this kind of thing a really wonderful opportunity to those so inclined--for me it is a temptation to get wrapped up in my own intellect and spend all of my time perpetual gazing into the mirror of my own intellectual vanity (and believe me, I do too much of that as it is). So I have to stay away from such endeavors, even while heartily recommending them to those of firmer constitution than myself. Go and see if this is something that interests you and support them if so.

Thanks.

On Mr. Paul, I have no coherent opinion--I offer this for those who are less than well-acquainted with this dark horse presidential candidate. Some things sound good, but others sound benighted. One would have to see how they played out and I'm not sure I'm willing to take the risk. But then, I don't suspect I'll get the chance--in which case his name makes as good a write-in as NOTA.

This site--The St. Noel Habanel Responsorial Psalm Project looks like it may have some really good materials--there is sheet music for organ and voice that is based on Gregorian modes for chanting the psalms. Unfortunately, the several times I've tried to get into some of the more interesting stuff on my Mac, the site has forced a crash of the browser. So, Mac user just be aware.

Thanks to TSO, a link to a blog new to me For Keats' Sake.

At the Roving Medievalist--priceless.

At Disputations a beautiful meditation that requires no further comment.

And I'd like to remind everyone of the effort being joined by our Dallas Blogging friends to bring an end to the scourge of abortion.

Mark has some things to say about first Friday devotions and elsewhere on his and Julie D.'s site is their statement of solidarity in the cause. Please join your prayers to those of our blogging friends in Dallas as they continue on their prayer crusade.

Thank you.

Please join our Dallas Blogger Friends in their prayerful effort to put an end to abortion.
