Hmm, an interesting conundrum this one. The Holy Bible, Wikipedia, doesn't have a listing for that specifically, but does this mean the term does not exist??Sister doesn't think she can do any more ogling the google, wander the wiki or delve into the ning. Mite be one of those riddles wrapped in mystery, just like a chiko roll, umm in other words maybe not...

Well, dear readers. I am a nun but I do ning and i have known the odd book that gets shoved in the face, pity it's not the Holy Bible...Seems with the proliferation of so many holy (and unholy!) sites, that are of this so-called "social networking" a nun has to rationalise:* facebook for the holy family?* ning for the numbers who want to interact?* blog for those who prefer to lurk and not make

I have long been looking for a particular piece of information about the two dogs who hung out together - one was big, the other small and yappy. Those of you who are familiar with my other life may understand why...It was only today that Brother John found what I had been seeking for many years - check it out here.

Well, according to my last post it seems that I do. Isn't the world complicated. In the early days of TV the only availability was the trusty old black & white tube. Today presents a maze of options and confusion. Plasma or LCD? HD or SD? Digital or not? Flat screen or big bottomed? How huge should it be? And what on earth is a digital set-top box?So, plasma or LCD? According to this review

Ohh, that's a tough one. After many weeks of travelling, Sister was glad to be home to catch up with her favourite shows.Australian Idol has long been fertile ground for recruiting choir boys, especially given the number of bright-eyed virgins that grace its' stage.The unexplored crannies of the lovely Kath and Kim, those foxy ladies of Fountainlakes, remind Sister of much of her local

Why, I'm shopping for shoes in Verona of course!

Well, I'm not sure but I think it smells like teen spirit and has something to do with the venerable Holy Ghost.During the month of August Sister Concepta will be off seeking the mythical state of nirvana somewhere in Europe, while Father O'Flaherty tours with Black Sabbath and Brother Paulus attends AA.This means, dear readers, a paucity of posts over the next little while. Praise the Lord I

Well, yes I did as a matter-of-fact. It's hard feeding hungry choir boys, but praise the Lord that Brother Bill was here to help. Check out his menu suggestions here.

No I have not, although I have attended many a memorable conference (and many not so, or was it that I can't remember...).However, a dear and holy colleague of mine pushed through the barriers of pain, soldiered on amidst adversity and managed a first ever blog of a certain conference she attended this year - read her grumbles here. A true stoic she is!I have been privileged to receive the

Well, if only I had a first life I'd be happy. But, yes, I have tried Second Life and lived to tell the tale, although huge problems with downloads and other technical irritants totally put me off. I did have a great name though which I miss terribly.Some museums have also dabbled in Second Life. A comprehensive review is reported in this paper A Second Life for Your Museum by Urban, Marty and

Well, that's a tough one. That bloke who wrote the Psalms was pretty good as was someone called Isaac, and most things contained in St Basil's Hymnal (serving us since the 1800's!). Of course Sister Janet Mead is a personal hero of mine, and even Helen Reddy (think the first Airport movie...).Lennon and McCartney, Frank Zappa are right up there, but for sheer honesty, Australian-ness, grit,

Sister Concepta managed to scrape together two 12-year-old choir boys to see the new Harry Potter movie. What can I say? I've long been a fan of the books and the movies, which I think have got better and better. The movies in particular have become truly sumptious, visual feasts.So, to the 5th instalment. In between Bible class I managed to re-read the book, which, in hindsight, was a big

Yes, house buying can be a fraught process. It also depends on where you live. If say, you lived in New South Wales, Australia, there are many resources you could look at. The NSW Government has a list of resources for buying a property. The A-Z of home purchase pdf on the Steps to buying a home section is great.Basically it tells me:* Find out how much you can borrow - there many online

I have heard about this thing called user-tagging in relation to museum objects. I too am confused about the terminology used - tagging, social bookmarking, keywords ... I'm also wondering how useful this is as a process of connecting people with objects?Some things I've been reading shed some light. The Pew Research Centre have a post about Tagging Play:"Just as the internet allows users to
