Ink Is the social medium a fad? You tell me...


Ink Like him or not, Warren Buffet is truly an economic mogul who’s opinion should at least be considered when speaking on monetary policy. His op-ed in the New York Times is an interesting article on the debt that the U.S. is pumping into the world economy.

“To understand this threat, we need to look at where we stand historically. If we leave aside the war-impacted years of 1942 to 1946, the largest annual deficit the United States has incurred since 1920 was 6 percent of gross domestic product. This fiscal year, though, the deficit will rise to about 13 percent of G.D.P., more than twice the non-wartime record. In dollars, that equates to a staggering $1.8 trillion. Fiscally, we are in uncharted territory.”

Ink The tornado that touched down in Minneapolis was an interesting “phenomena” that just happened to occur during the vote to approve homosexual clergy during the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America's national convention this week. Read John Piper’s thoughts about the event here.

Ink Tim Challies re-posted an interesting story this week about a Harvard professor who taught his students with a fish. I’ve read the story before but share it again here for you.
