FUNNY OR JUST PLAIN COOL--Student Surprised to See Black Hole Eat Star

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - It began like a routine measurement on a quasar, a somewhat boring look at the emissions from a distant, early galaxy -- but it turned out that the graduate student was actually watching a black hole swallow part of a star.

KNOW GOD--RESOURCES FOR WALKING THE WALK

Online Prayer Labyrinth

The Labyrinth is an interactive spiritual experience that brings together a unique blend of traditional Christianity and post-modern worship. Labyrinths were a feature of many medieval cathedrals. Unlike a maze a labyrinth has one path with no dead ends, which people can walk as an aid to contemplative prayer. The new Labyrinth gives this old idea a contemporary twist by providing each participant with a CD Discman. At various stations en route they listen to music with a spoken meditation and take part in a ritual activity. For instance the second station is ‘noise’ where images on an oscilloscope or soundline flicker on a stack of three televisions. The walker is encouraged to reflect on internal and external noise in their own life and to place it on one side, quiet down and listen for God’s signal. [from http://www.yfc.co.uk/labyrinth.htm]
