Great resource! If only I knew a little bit more about how to actually use CSS…but these should help a true novice, and I am certainly that when it comes to style sheets.
So they’re actually showing a little gumption? Perhaps it’s more a fear of what the voters have found to be a betrayal and less a matter of principal. Either way, it works to cramp the Bushco style, and that’s a good thing.

And here are my results…interesting to say the least. I would have thought New Thought would have been closer to the top, and Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants much lower on the scale. The fact that Roman Catholicism was at the bottom of the list, however, was no surprise at all.
| 1. | Unitarian Universalism (100%) |
| 2. | Liberal Quakers (98%) |
| 3. | Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (97%) |
| 4. | New Age (93%) |
| 5. | New Thought (91%) |
| 6. | Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (90%) |
| 7. | Neo-Pagan (86%) |
| 8. | Mahayana Buddhism (75%) |
| 9. | Bahá’à Faith (75%) |
| 10. | Scientology (70%) |
| 11. | Reform Judaism (65%) |
| 12. | Taoism (63%) |
| 13. | Secular Humanism (62%) |
| 14. | Theravada Buddhism (59%) |
| 15. | Hinduism (59%) |
| 16. | Orthodox Quaker (50%) |
| 17. | Sikhism (45%) |
| 18. | Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) (45%) |
| 19. | Jainism (43%) |
| 20. | Mainline to Conservative Christian/Protestant (39%) |
| 21. | Nontheist (35%) |

A color playground!
A person could wander in here, start looking around, and be distracted for hours at a time.
Quite possibly the largest collection of coloring pages I’ve come across–great for templates, stained glass projects, and loads of other projects–not to mention coloring!

Al Gore is the president of this company…and all along, I had thought it was owned by Google. The target audience may be a bit younger, but it is interesting to watch what’s going on in the world from a completely different perspective.
For the truly committed coffee drinker…and rightfully so, considering the website is named I Need Coffee.
All things pharmaceutical, and more.

Really, really small icons. Lots of ‘em, but tiny.
DIY Bible commentary–I am concerned about the “community” aspect, and the reaction I might get when I stray from the strict “The Bible is the Word of God. Period.” tone. I think I’ll pass, and keep my comments to a more receptive forum.
Quite a selection–too bad the printouts are so awful. Back to the drawing board (sorry, couldn’t resist!).

Speaking from personal experience, the entire system is corrupt and in need of an overhaul. The initial resounding “DENIED!” that most applicants receive, despite their medical condition or its severity, would be an excellent starting point.

Looks like a great resource to fill in some of those holes in my library.
A search site I hadn’t come across before–and one that deserves a second look.
Organizing those books–and helping with the New Year’s resolutions of many, no doubt.
Yet another online radio guide, but this one at least looks usable, without clobbering you over the head with ads at every turn (not yet, at least).
