The Golden Compass

In the group "The Movie Lovers" the movie The Golden Compass was brought up...

How do you feel about a children's author pushing atheism? Should it be disclosed?

Commentary:
So, I heard the author of The Golden Compass is an atheist and in the end of the book series,
the kids kill God.

I checked it out and it is true. I think I will keep my kids away from this one... This is good reading prior
to seeing the movie, if you still decide to see it:

Mistle Toe: Mystical, Mystery or Misery?

It is the holiday season. Why is it so hard for some to enjoy the holidays, while others have a one-track need for all to be jolly and hang decorations, maybe Mistle Toe or holly?

What does Mistle Toe mean to you? The complexity and variability of Mistle Toe, eerily remind me of the intricacy and diversity of human nature.

How can one person face hardship, loss, and maybe even abuse, and still be the strongest amongst us, while others who “appear” (key word) almost pampered, think life is diff… Continue

Lost Poem

I hear his laughter, but it is in my mind.
I see him laughing, like a passage through time.
I don’t want to lose each memory, so dear.
But they are fading and not as clear.

I find myself staring at the empty chair
With a pensive, blank, yet lonely stare.

I need a sign of his love for me.
It meant so much, the trunk of our family tree.
The stab of pain in my heart grows weaker.
As the days, weeks, months drift by and the pain becomes meeker.

WWI-Era Mass Grave Rediscovered In France

About 7,000 British and Australian soldiers died in the muddy fields around the French village of Fromelles during the first World War.

Experts are now trying to identify the bodies and prepare them for burial in a new war cemetery in the heart of Fromelles.

The Man Who Made You Put Away Your Pen

When was the last time you actually set pen to paper and mailed off a personal letter to someone? It's probably been awhile — and the man responsible is Ray Tomlinson. In 1971, Tomlinson changed the way the world communicated when he invented e-mail.

'Mad Scientists,' Building The Future For 50 Years

If you've used a GPS system — or if you happen to be using the Internet to read this — you can thank DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. For 50 years, the smallish, somewhat secretive division of the Pentagon has been mostly off-limits to reporters. Now author Michael Belfiore has profiled the agency in a new book.

Arlington Ladies Pay Tribute To Fallen Soldiers

The Arlington Ladies believe that no death should go unmourned. How do they make sure that happens? The group of women attend people's funerals, even though they don't know them. NPR's Petra Mayer caught up with a few of the ladies at Arlington National Cemetery during this week's Veterans Day celebrations.

Obama Begins Visit To China

Television Writer David Lloyd Dies At 75

One of television's most successful comedy writers, David Lloyd, died this week. He was 75. Lloyd wrote for Jack Paar, Johnny Carson and Dick Cavett. He penned episodes of Cheers, Taxi, Rhoda, The Bob Newhart Show, Wings and Frasier. But his most memorable work may have been on The Mary Tyler Moore Show. An episode he wrote called "Chuckles Bites the Dust" was cited by TV Guide as the funniest sitcom episode ever.

Terra Cotta Warriors March Through Washington

In 1974, a group of farmers digging a well in central China stumbled upon a buried figure. It turned out to be one of an estimated 7,000 life-sized terra cotta warriors in an underground tomb complex. The warriors and a host of other figures were created for China's first emperor, Qin Shihuangdi. Host Guy Raz drops by the National Geographic Museum in Washington, D.C., to see an exhibit of the figures.

Scared Of Planet Nibiru? NASA Would Like To Help

What The Future Holds When China Rules

British author Martin Jacques witnessed the decline of the British Empire over his lifetime. He predicts that Americans will have a similar experience as the power of the United States declines in the coming years, yielding to an ever more powerful China. He discusses his new book, When China Rules the World.

In 'Prisoner,' Twisted Whimsy Flirts With New Fears

At the height of the Cold War, the television series The Prisoner was so subversive and enigmatic, it lasted just 17 episodes. There's finally a remake, but if you're expecting a faithful re-creation of the British series, actor Jim Caviezel says you'll be disappointed.
