YouTube - Halo Theme Song School Talent Show
This is simply brilliant - who says kids today have no imagination?
Take one very cool chick on electric violin (sadly a touch rough on the edges from the recording), add a pinch of Blue Man Group, and the Halo theme (with a little Mario Bros. for comic relief) = too cool for words...

The Ashley Treatment
Well, after a protracted silence on the blog front, I am back on line, and hopefully this will be a more regularly active site. What brings me out of my long period of inactivity, you ask? A topic that fits most squarely into the working title/content of my blog, brought to my attention by my good friend Bob.
The topic? The so-called "Ashley Treatment", referring to a recent case of a young girl in Seattle, and her parents' decision to pursue some radical medical interventions that have broad implications not only about health care, but about eugenics, social justice, the value of individuals (and in particular, those with disabilities) in our society, and whose needs come first...
The link in the post title connects to a blog written by the parents of Ashley, explaining their perspective and feelings. Some other sites of potential interest include the following:
Times Online Article
CTV article
CNN article
As well as NUMEROUS blog entries addressing the issue...
For my own part, I need time to read and digest it all before making comment - but I thought I would post this to solicit opinions and reflections from others in the meantime...
Stay tuned....
