Summary

Various useful sites and resources saved from across the web.

It also shows a ‘viewline’ that represents the southern-most locations from which you may see the aurora on the northern horizon.”

News and Commentary

Curated to the best of my ability for being actual news and not mainstream media propaganda machines. 

cleveland.com – Ohio local and national news

religionnews.com – Religion News Service (RNS). Independent, nonprofit professional journalism reporting on global news on religion, spirituality, culture and ethics. This initiative aims to provide balanced, nuanced coverage of major world religions, with an emphasis on explaining religious practices and principles behind current events and cultural movements.

theguardian.com – The Guardian. “Covering American and international news for an online, global audience.”

bostonglobe.com – The Boston Globe. This is the one I subscribe to now, after the New York Times and the Washington Post fell.

inquirer.com – The Philadelphia Inquirer. Mostly local news but independently owned by a journalism nonprofit and the largest newspaper in America operated as a public-benefit corporation
