Res et Explicatio Anno Domine 3-2-2009

Salvete AC readers!

I’m still tinkering with the format of how I want to do this, mostly just the name of the post from here on out, so any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Today I just want to share the Seven Hot Topics/Links of the day:

1.  I stumbled across the equivalent of the Catholic Netflix called Pius Media.  I haven’t subscribed to it (yet), but it will look familiar to many Netflix users.  Here is the link: http://piusmedia.com/

2.  Looking for the nearest Catholic book & gift store in your area?  Well there is a website that will do just that.  It’s called Catholic Store Finder.  So far it looks like it only conducts it searches in the United States.  Here is the link:  http://catholicstorefinder.com/

3.  Regular Guy Paul, Just This Guy, You Know? is blogging over at Southern Appeal it seems.

4.  I’ve touched on this before and I’ll go more in depth in a future posting, but for those serious Catholics that are looking to pursue their marriage vocation I would highly suggest Ave Maria Singles by Anthony Buono.  It isn’t cheap, but it sure is a highly professional and well done website.  Here is the link:  http://avemariasingles.com/

5.  For those ambitious bloggers and web designers that are looking to make their sites more ‘Catholic’, here is an interesting link called Catholic Desktops.  It’s been recommended by Thomas Peters of American Papist so it has a level of approval.  Here is the link:  http://www.catholicdesktops.com/index.html

6.  Finally figured out why my Mozilla Firefox and Apple Safari browsers were unable to view video’s online.  I needed to upgrade my Adobe Flash Player.  Now I can watch BSG on Hulu without any issue!

7.  Speaking of Apple Safari, they have their new Safari 4 out and it is very neat.  The graphics have been smoothed out so you won’t get the ‘Mac’ feel on your PC, but their Top Sites feature is pretty snazzy.  Check it out.
