Hotels.com drops the ball
Posted on November 30, 2009 | View CommentsAWESOME UPDATE: I posted this entry at 12:07 pm. At 1:34 pm I received a phone call from Hotels.com saying that they had tracked down the booking agent who processed my bad booking and were refunding the money immediately. I’m not going to accuse Twitter, Facebook, and a blog of ensuring the abnormally quick turnaround, but I certainly won’t deny the possibility. :) Thanks for fixing this, Hotels.com.

Physical insanity
Posted on November 13, 2009 | View CommentsWhen I was training earlier in the summer in London, I went out for a walk with some of my Faiths Act companions.

Proof of Mozart
Posted on November 10, 2009 | View CommentsI needed to learn a bit more about Meister Eckhart, so I Googled him last night. That led me to Eckhart Tolle, and to Paul Tillich, and then finally to Karl Barth this morning. I guess you could call it a theologian binge. In my readings, I happened upon this interesting quotation by Barth:

What are Millennials good for? How can we (you) use them (me)? Christina Smith from YourMembership.com, Inc. recently posted on the Nonprofit Technology Network’s blog to look into that question. It’s called “Tapping into the Strengths of a Generation – The Millennials“, and it’s a good place to start. What follows are my comments on the post, with a few tiny changes (items in bold are Christina’s quick descriptions):

Stanford University Day of Interfaith Youth Service
Posted on November 9, 2009 | View Comments
Stanford University FAITH
Stanford University has a brand new and highly-motivated interfaith group. It’s called Faiths Acting In Togetherness and Hope, otherwise known by its acronym FAITH. On Saturday, November 7, the group organized its first Day of Interfaith Youth Service (DIYS). The Chicago-based Interfaith Youth Core (led by Obama advisor and well-recognized American leader Eboo Patel) has been helping people of faith organize these service projects for a handful of years now. The organization (which happens to be my employer) trains leaders who then head out to put the projects together.

Health care debate actually making Americans sicker

New research shows that the past few months of debate (often more like shouting) over the reform of the health insurance process has actually worsened our nation’s already-fragile health.
