Secondhand Smokette and I have returned from our vacation cruise with the Secondhand Smoke’s In Laws. A good time was had by all, with an incredible visit to St. Petersburg, once known as Leningrad. Amazing.

But before I move on, I want to express my most grateful thanks to Alex Schadenberg, Bobby Schindler, and Jennifer Lahl for their guest posting. Much happened in the two weeks of my sojourn and their individual and collective commentary kept us all up to date. They are the best.

If you would like to tune into them on a regular basis:
- Alex’s blog can be found at here (alexschadenberg.blogspot.com).
- Jennifer’s The Human Future can be found here: (thehumanfuture.blogspot.com).
- Bobby hangs out at the Terri Schindler Schiavo Foundation (http://www.terrisfight.org/).

Thanks to all three and you for continuing to tune in.

We will now return to our regular programming.

Dear Reader,

You have a decision to make: double or nothing.

For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.

In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.

So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?

Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
