Ubuntu Games: Purplemines

    Do you love mines but your current game of mines just isn't colorful enough?  Maybe you'd like it to be a bit more purple?  Oh have I got a game for you!  

    Purplemines is a little minesweeper game that uses pygame.  It is pretty much just classic minesweeper with some cool purple affects.

    Sound like fun?  Can download the source here.  Like bitsnake just unzip and execute the game.  There is also a .deb available but it is an older version (1.4 the latest is 1.6) but it will probably be just fine.

    This little game is pretty fun in my opinion.  And hey why not have yet another minesweeper game?

Ubuntu games?

    One of the things I have been doing very little of for the last several years is PC gaming.  This is probably mostly due to a complete lack of a Windows machine in my life.  Plus with all of the great games available for Android my needs as a casual gamer are more than met.     However, this years humble bundled has reignited my interest in PC gaming.  I got it and installed a couple of the games on my Ubuntu machine.  So far they are a lot of fun especially VVVVVV .  This got me asking "what else can I play on Ubuntu?"  Turns out there is a plethora of free open source games, some awesome, some not so much.  Many are available from the   Ubuntu Software Center and many you have to hunt down around the web.     One thing that keeps many Windows users from Ubuntu (or any Linux OS for that matter) is a supposed lack of games.  This is simply not the case.  While yes many of the commercial PC games are only available for Windows or at best OS X, there are many free

Overcome evil with good.

Romans 12 is a beautiful passage of scripture.  You can say that about many parts of The Bible but this description of life following the risen Jesus is beautiful.  This morning reading this section I realized how nicely this wraps up: "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." We can fight evil without seeking out revenge.  We can live wisely without thinking of ourselves as wise.  We can be humble.  And, above all, we can love and serve God and one another. Transform your mind.
