Nazi Stealth Jet Could Have Won War for Hitler

Meet the "wonder weapon" that could have won the war for Hitler.

Called the Horten 229, the radical "flying wing" fighter-bomber looked and acted a lot like the U.S. Air Force's current B-2 — right down to the "stealth" radar-evading characteristics.

What Do Nuclear War And Health Insurance Have In Common?

The answer is RAND, a shadowy think tank in Santa Monica, California.
If you think the Internet came out of Silicon Valley, that NASA planned the first satellite to orbit Earth, or that IBM created the modern computer—think again. Each one of these breakthroughs was conceived at RAND, a shadowy think tank in Santa Monica, California.

Faith in Sports: A List of Influential Christians in the Sports World

I found this article interesting and thought others might too.
I'm not going to make this ranked.

I'm not going to say one Christian is more influential than the other.

My purpose of this article is to highlight the men and women that do their job as a believer in Christ Jesus.

I'm aware that this will offend some. I'm aware that there might be attacks on the subject matter. I believe that these people need to be recognized for what they do.

Naturally there will be some off the list...some that I had forgotten about. That doesn't lessen their beliefs or contributions though.

Josh Hamilton: How A Big Leaguer Beat His Demons

Guideposts has a new article that Josh Hamilton wrote. Click on the picture to the left to read the article.

Baseball had been my life. Now cocaine was. What consumed me every day was getting high. I tried to quit using—sometimes I’d even stay clean for a few months—but nothing got through to me enough to stick. Not the seven treatment centers I went to after Betty Ford. Not the one-year suspension for violating major-league-baseball’s drug policy yet again in March 2004. Not my parents or their anger, sadness and heartbreak. Not even my grandmother. I tried praying, but that didn’t help either.
