Finding Faith and Common Ground….

Posted in General at 23:34 by requiem

I heard this carol on the radio the other morning, and just had to track it down. It’s going to be my favorite Yule song for quite a while, I think.

“But we love trees, we love the snow,
the friends we have, the world we share
And you find magic from your God,
and we find magic everywhere”
. . .
So the Christians and the Pagans
sat together at the table
Finding faith and common ground
the best that they were able

- Dar Williams, “The Christians and the Pagans”

Cool visual of a CDO

I’ve been very impressed with what Portfolio has done with visuals. (Someone over there has been reading Tufte. ) Last night I ran across a rather pretty demonstration of how a CDO works.
