Next weekend is a three day break (queen&#8217;s birthday) and one son is up in Auckland&#8230; and I pray by then that she will be well.

This is a very good article, and the conversation that followed (which is quite long) was serious, and well worth perusal. Dalrock summarizes the current situation thusly.

		<description><![CDATA[This post follows on from a couple of interesting posts. The first is the warrior meme that exists for modern women. The second is that we see Naomi&#8217;s grief for her husband. We also see th acting of a righteous man.
