Hillary Clinton Sings National Anthem
This is a short video of the national anthem – about 30 seconds into it Hillary Clinton’s mic is on and you can hear here singing it. Her singing is….well….um….. shall we say “unique”?
Why this scientist believes in God
Francis S. Collins, M.D., Ph.D., is the director of the National Human Genome Research Institute. His most recent book is “The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief.”
Scientist Francis Collins has stated publicly that he believes in God, specifically Christianity and Jesus Christ – and also states “evolution by descent from a common ancestor is clearly true”.
As a lead on the Human Genome Project he has a detailed understanding of DNA and scientific protocol. Yet this intellectual also states a belief in God, assumably the Trinity of Christianity.
In my not so humble opinion we need more people like this. It is a good thing to have learned professionals that back the progress of science, have a commitment to their faith – and can have both without tearing down the other. Many of you know my personal “little red wagon” is the Evolution-Creation debates and how absolutely Neanderthal it is to read most Creationist arguments – makes about as much sense as the Salem witch trials or putting Galileo under house arrest. But here we have someone on the forefront of scientific research who also declares their faith loud and clear.
I like that. It’s a good thing. He makes me proud to be American, proud to be a Christian, and proud to be a human.
Article Excerpt:
Actually, I find no conflict here, and neither apparently do the 40 percent of working scientists who claim to be believers. Yes, evolution by descent from a common ancestor is clearly true. If there was any lingering doubt about the evidence from the fossil record, the study of DNA provides the strongest possible proof of our relatedness to all other living things.

Don LaFontaine – Movie Trailer Voice Overdubs
Don LaFontaine is that cool gravelly bass voice you hear on all the movie trailers. The voice that says something like “In a world where boredom ruled the day….SOMEONE had an idea….” – or fill in your own catch phrase.
Don has been recording overdubs for movie trailers for several decades now. Any of us that go to movie theaters and see the motion picture trailers have his voice firmly engrained in our head.
Many YouTube trailer spoofs try to copy his vocal sound for their trailer overdubbing, to give it that real “Hollywood” feel. Congratulations to Mr. LaFontaine on a great career, and thank you for making those movie trailers entertaining.
