A Horse Roadie?

March 13, 2010 March 13, 2010 / Leave a Comment / Uncategorized

We’ve all heard the phrase “…the road less traveled.” We often look back on situations and marvel at how unexpected the path to our goal became. We thought right and went left, we thought up and went down.

I came across a great article today about a Ph.D. student who’s path to her passion was nothing short of atypical. Amy Kearns has served as bodyguard (yes bodyguard) to two of the most celebrated racehorses of the modern era while completing her dissertation on Criminal Justice (yes Criminal Justice). Amy’s unique story is a sterling example of how our passions have a strange way of finding their ways into our lives, if your willing to let them find you.

Keep striving. Do what you love.

All the best,

Thoughts On Google And China

February 9, 2010 | 2

Google’s decision to second-guess its relationship with China has raised some interesting questions recently. Namely, whether Google’s decision sprang from their moral opposition to censorship, or simply from a decreased financial interest in a country with a much more popular search engine, known as Baidu. So far, the controversy appears to be more of a commercial, as opposed to a political dilemma. A private, business-related concern. But whenever the question of morality, of a battle between good (Google) and evil, comes into play in the news, you can be sure that the blogosphere will start freaking out.
