ELSEWHERE: The “Evolution of the Swimsuit” and Nostalgia for More Modest Days

Last updated on: June 26, 2013 at 12:17 pm   By Amy Lepine Peterson

Are your friends passing around that Q video where Jessica Rey talks about “The Evolution of the Swimsuit“? Now, I like a classy vintage-inspired suit as much as the next girl, but there’s good reason to take Rey’s argument with a grain of salt; the video, after all, amounts to an advertisement for her company. A group of ladies at Christianity Today offer a variety of helpful critical perspectives on the video, and Rachel Marie Stone expounds on her contribution... Read more

ELSEWHERE: “The Pursuit of Happiness”

Last updated on: June 25, 2013 at 12:27 pm   By Ryan Hoselton

Suicide is a curious and awful human plague, claiming victims among the depressed and the flourishing alike. Last week, a Brooklyn couple that hosted a self-help radio show, The Pursuit of Happiness, took their lives together. On their last airing, they spoke on how change can enhance contentment. Unlike things that change, only satisfaction in Christ, who is “the same yesterday today and forever,” is lasting (Heb. 13:8). Read more

I’ve written about the possibilities and controversies surrounding 3D printers before, but I don’t think there will be too much controversy around this story: Two men have figured out how to print prosthetic “Robohands” for children, and they’ve made the designs and techniques freely available to all. More info here. Read more

Buzz-Kill Batman & the Myth of the Lone Hero

Last updated on: June 25, 2013 at 7:08 am   By Guest Contributor

By David Dunham I can’t imagine that Batman would be very much fun at a party. He’s always so grim, a real buzz-kill. Of course, Batman would never really go to a party–he’s not much of a socialite. Even if someone did look past his brooding demeanor, he’s not likely to accept an invite. And he’s not the only character like that. There are a host of characters whose heroism is often accompanied by a deep isolationism. It’s easy to... Read more
