Countering the technolust

With a bit of a faith oriented post.

1. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Bangladesh team departing soon. Hopefully the unrest and bombs that have hurt some of the Bangladeshis are under control and their trip will be a success. Let their eyes be opened--it's a far more rigorous trip than anything I ever did. Find out details about the trip.

2. Father Gary Braun, pastor at the Catholic Student Center at Washington U in St. Louis, is now available in podcast form. Gary's sermons are some of the most moving, heartfelt, spiritual, and thought-provoking lectures I've ever heard, and they truly hit directly at the core foundations of genuine faith--aspects of love and inclusion rather than dogmatic exclusion.
