Regular readers of this blog (that imaginary group every blogger hopes he has!) will know that I am not a fan of the [tag]ESV[/tag]. More precisely, I’m not a fan of the hype that surrounds it in certain circles. It’s not a bad translation in my view–it’s just not very special. Thus I was [...] This is a good post. Not only is it true, but it’s fun. More of us should dissect certain advertising claims in this way.

I believe people from all across the political spectrum should be able to agree that we must take good care of our troops and our veterans. But I want to point [...] New science standards for [tag]Florida[/tag] public schools are now available for review (HT: Florida Citizens for Science.
