Here are a few things I’ve come across recently that may be of interest to someone else, in no particular order or organization:

• A fine article by Bishop Wright in Christianity Today, “Heaven Is Not Our Home.” It is, more or less, a summary of the his latest book (which I’m currently reading), Surprised By Hope, which, I might note, is so far the best book I’ve read in a while.
• I just came across the Pandora Radio the other day. Enter an artist or song you like, and it will play music that sounds similar. I heard about this thing a few years ago, and forgot about it. Now that I’ve found it again, I’m hooked!
• Anybody seen Perseus 4.0 yet? I like it! Now, if they can just somehow make the site faster…
• An interesting post by Randall Buth at Evangelical Textual Criticism on TC in synoptic studies and the case of ευθυς.
• Eric at Archaic Christianity has found out that the University of Wales Lampeter offers a distance education graduate program in Classics. Very useful information. I wonder if I could take a course or two in Latin as a non degree-seeker…
• Chris Tilling has just posted a list of academic lectures dealing with biblical studies which are available (for free, I take it) on iTunes.
  
• Frankly, I’m beginning to get tired of hearing about the Presidential candidates all day, day in and day out, in every branch of the media. But this article from the Onion really cracked me up.
  
• The latest Biblical Studies Carnival is here.
