Photo: Joanne Rathe/The Boston Globe via Getty Images This morning marks 250 years since the first shot of the American Revolution was fired in Lexington, Ma. "[H]istorians have argued over who fired first at the Battle of Lexington, when Massachusetts militiamen faced British soldiers about 11 miles west of Boston. A musket blast caused red-coated regulars to shoot at colonists, officially marking the beginning of the Revolutionary War," The Washington Post reports (gift link). Go deeper: 250 years after America went to war for independence, a divided nation battles over its legacy. Quote phkrause Read Isaiah 10:1-13

Members phkrause Posted May 7 Author Members Posted May 7 📸 Pics to go: Inside the conclave The Sistine Chapel, where cardinals gather to elect the new pope, at the Vatican yesterday. Photo: Vatican Media via AP In a ritual dating to medieval times, cardinals today will file into the Vatican's frescoed Sistine Chapel after a public Mass in St. Peter's Basilica (just concluded) and start their secret conclave to pick a successor to Pope Francis. (Reuters) A view of the Sistine Chapel after being set up for the papal conclave yesterday.

The chimney that'll be used to alert the crowd in St. Peter's Square when a new pope has been chosen.

They'll have two ballots in the morning, and two in the afternoon, until a winner is found. Go deeper. Quote phkrause Read Isaiah 10:1-13
