Lessons in Human Dignity from a Homeless Man’s Makeover
In a new video from Dégagé Ministries, a non-profit based in Grand Rapids, Mich., Jim Wolf, a formerly homeless U.S. Army vet, receives a striking physical makeover. The video was created for a Veteran’s Day fundraising campaigndesigned to raise money for homeless and disadvantaged veterans.

Kirk, Acton, and the Imperishable Tradition
As noted earlier this week on the PowerBlog, 2013 marks the 60th publication anniversary of Russell Kirk’s The Conservative Mind: From Burke to Eliot. This monumental work’s significance derives from its encapsulation of several centuries of conservative thought – fragments, to borrow liberally from T.S. Eliot, shored against the ruins of mid-20th century liberalism, relativism and other brickbats of modernity. The importance of Kirk’s book (as well the remainder of his extensive body of work) should be obvious to those...
Ender’s Game: What Does the Formic Say?
Over at Think Christian, I take another look at Ender’s Game, focusing on the leitmotif of understanding munication in Orson Scott Card’s work. This applies particularly to munication. We might, in fact, riffing off the Norwegian parody pop song, say that the central question of Ender’s Game is, “What does the Formic say?” Ender is the only one with the genuine curiosity to find out, and doing so is how he moves beyond his bloody calling. What we find out,...

It’s Time To Rethink Food Stamps
Michael Tanner of the Cato Institute released a recent policy analysis that raises important questions about whether or not we pletely re-conceptualize how to provide food for the truly disadvantaged. In “SNAP Failure: The Food Stamp Program Needs Reform” Tanner argues The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is currently crippled by high administrative costs, significant fraud and abuse, and weakening of standards. Tanner notes that SNAP breeds greater dependence on government, and, even worse, seems to have negligible long-term effectiveness...
Veterans Give Us the Liberty to Forget Them
Spend a day with your local military recruiter, and you’ll be encouraged by the number of people who go out of their way to say how much they support our troops and how much they appreciate the service of these young veterans. Then watch as the recruiters casually ask when they’ll be bringing their son or daughter to the recruiting station to learn more about serving their country. Their spines stiffen, they smile blankly, and a es over them. If...
France: What Not To Do
Since the French Revolution, Americans have glanced over to our friends across the Atlantic Ocean as a model of what a country should not do. That tradition continues. France’s centralized planning of the economy, health care, education, the family, religion, and so on is not working. The New York Times reports: The pervasive presence of government in French life, from workplace rules to health and education benefits, is now the subject of a great debate as the nation grapples with...
