There are eight planets in our solar system including Earth. So far, no life as we know it exists on any planet other than our own.
Mercury, the planet closest to the Sun, has almost no atmosphere, and its dusty surface of craters resembles the Moon. The planet was named for the Roman god Mercury, a winged messenger, and it travels around the Sun faster than any other planet. Mercury is difficult to see from Earth—in fact, the famous astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus, for all his years of research and observation, never once was able to see Mercury.

It don't come much tuffer than this, or hipper than this; Young Jessie deals it like it is. Dig it or hit git and split.......
One of the unsung greats of R&B, Young Jessie was born Obediah Donnell Jessie on 28 December 1936 in Dallas, Texas. As a youngster he was part of a school band that also included saxophonist David 'Fathead' Newman. Relocating to Los Angeles, he joined a vocal outfit with Louie Louie composer Richard Berry, the group eventually being recorded as The Flairs. By 1953, both Richard Berry and Young Jessie had embarked on solo careers. Young Jessie recorded his most famous song Mary Lou for Modern Records in 1955 (it would later be covered in 1959 by Ronnie Hawkins) and a year later the magnificent Hit, Git And Split (featuring Sam 'The Man' Taylor's tough saxophone blowing and Mickey Baker's fuse-blowing guitar playing).This terrific 21 track CD assembles Young Jessie's legendary Modern recordings made between 1953-1957 and includes not only his most famous songs but also two previously unreleased snippets of planned soundalike singles as well as a "This Is Young Jessie" station indentification for KDMA (Mad Lad Johnstone's show).With the demise of Modern in 1957, Young Jessie went on to sing with The Coasters on their Searchin' and Young Blood hits and he appeared in 1983 at The Electric Ballroom, Camden (a knockout set released on the now deleted Ace LP 1983 R&B Jamboree, CH 89).

Like a blast of Mediterranean sunshine, this easy chicken sandwich is unmistakably Italian, with sun-dried tomatoes, pesto, and balsamic vinegar.
Focaccia is a good choice for this sandwich because the bread is hearty enough to hold the pesto and soak in the balsamic vinegar.
Don't care for sun-dried tomatoes? Use fresh tomatoes instead.

What will we wrap fish with when newspapers are gone?
Robin Brownlee
June 18 2009 03:16PM
Short of a Stanley Cup final, covering the NHL Entry Draft used to be the highlight of the season during my newspaper days.
Likewise, between chasing down trade rumours, trying to get the inside dope on who was talking to whom and buzz about top prospects, it was obvious fans couldn't get enough of what scribes would tap out.
Update: By popular demand, we're taking donations to fund
Brownlee's Gregor's trip... When you're donating, feel free to suggest what he should do while he's out there. Just click the orange pill thingy.
I can't imagine fan interest, particularly in puck hotbeds like Edmonton, has waned since the days when I'd jet to Toronto or Miami or Nashville, but it's getting more difficult for fans to get their fix -- at least as delivered by their local beat men, the people who cover the team on a daily basis.
Tough economic times have newspapers, like a lot of businesses, slashing budgets. Compounding matters, newspapers have been dying a slow death for years now -- the reasons are many.
The result? For the Entry Draft in Montreal, Oilers fans won't have anybody from either daily newspaper documenting the day. There won't be any inside stuff from Jim Matheson, who knows the Oilers better than anybody on the planet, unless he picks up the telephone.
Pool coverage
Instead of Matheson's insights or the acidic sarcasm of a Rob Tychkowski over at The Sun, fans here will have to get their dope on the Oilers from the Ottawa Citizen, Ottawa Sun or the Montreal Gazette. Well, that or from TSN or Sportsnet.
There might be a local sports director from Edmonton who grabs the trip as a junket and does a few stand-ups to justify the expense -- maybe Dave Mitchell can do a piece where he pretends to be drafted -- but the newsprint guys are getting shutout as far as I know.
Because of Bob MacKenzie and Darren Dreger, national outlets like TSN are second-to-none in terms of big-picture blanket coverage, but they've got their Blackberries buzzing with 30 teams to cover. Their focus is not the Oilers.
The problem with newspapers, of course, is they don't hit the doorstep until the next morning, so everything they have to offer is old news by the time the black-and-white finds the step.
But even the dustiest old daily has one of those interweb sites now, where updates come be made within minutes of a player being selected or a trade being completed. There's value in that, no?
Wouldn't it make sense to have a beat guy there? Apparently not, because I'm hearing scribes from Vancouver aren't going, either.
You'd think with Edmonton, with the Oilers having a top-10 pick, a new GM, a new coaching staff and the team reportedly in the hunt for sulking Dany Heatley, there'd be plenty of angles worth pursuing. Anybody with half-a-brain can see that. But, nooooooooooooooo.
Instead, we get The Journal sending columnist Dan Barnes to Las Vegas for the NHL Awards, where he's expected to produce for the entire CanWest chain of newspapers. Barnes will do a helluva job, and Ethan Moreau is getting the King Clancy Memorial Award, so...
Even so, if there's a choice to be made by the bean-counters, and it's obvious there is -- Jason Gregor broke the news about Moreau and I did a follow-up piece here Tuesday, so it's old news -- isn't the Entry Draft and everything that comes with it more compelling to fans? Of course it is.
That's one of many problems with my beloved old hard copy in newsrooms across the country and the continent -- the bean-counters call the shots, not the editorial staff. Who cares if Matheson can provide the best insight? How much does it cost?
That's one of the reasons newspapers, despite some blips of recovery in a time of declining circulation, are half on the slab right now and websites like Oilersnation are making inroads.
Now, if cheap screw Wanye will only get off his wallet and provide yours truly with a travel budget, we'll really be on to something.
-- Listen to Robin Brownlee every Thursday from 4 to 6 p.m. on Just A Game with Jason Gregor on TEAM 1260.
great plan. I'm in for a few bucks. If there's any extra money, how about a sweet ON skateboard to give to Quinn (if he's going)?
The button is there. That was fast. I donated $10.
I apologize in advance for being so cheap. Robin, you better piss it away on something stupid.
So is brownlee willing to go?

I wish I was tech savy enough to know what a "pay pal" was or a "credit card". I do know that Iron Maiden is the best band ever. Any chance of a impromtu fund raiser at Hudson's on Friday so I can get blindly drunk and donate? I like things that are crunchy and sweet.
Woo Hoo!
I donated enough for 2 beer or 1 cheap pay per view in hotel room, Go Brownlee Go.
heh, could he pull down a media badge if he goes? That would be the story the Journal ran unfortunately, Oiler fans pony up to send their own dang media guy to ask the tough questions.
I've put my money where my mouth is, too.
ON, pony up.
Is brownlee willing to go?
CHED and the Oilers will also be holding a draft party next week...details to come since space will be limited. If you're in attendance, you'll have a chance to score the first interview with the Oilers newest draft choice. Not sure when we're announcing the details. Stay tuned.
And, yes, Stauffer is going for us.
okay sounds good. I donated 20 bucks.
If I donate a few bucks, promise me that you'll use it for a vasectomy.
June 18 2009, 10:31PM
you got my $20.

I guess this is a very popular site if "CHED" has to advertise here . I donate also
Come on Greggor, do a call in tommorow for Brownlee Does Vegas, lots will donate.
June 18 2009, 10:55PM
I donated like I said I would. And I gave a lot too because we all know internet money isn't real money.
/Can we get the orange pill thingy a better location on the site? The way JW fires out posts the pill will be buried in no time!
OK I need a few numbers.

So did you guys hear that Newspapers are dying? I think I read that somewhere in an article written by a journalist.
Seriously, i get the National Post (because my girlfriend felt bad for the kid who was going door to door selling subscriptions). I only read it to get to the Sudoku. I already read (parts) of the Journal and Sun online and dont pay a dime to get a stack of paper that i need to carry to the recycling bin after one morning's use. I love the newspaper and I love not paying for it. That last sentence probably made one of the Journal's bean counters cry.
since i'm a poor student that decided it would be easier to sit on my couch and read ON all day than to deliver furniture this summer i can only donate the remaining $2.00 in my paypal account.
i hope my $2 goes towards RBs cigar fund for the trip.
I love this idea, and threw in $25 for Brownlee to use on the best lapdance of his life. Those french chicks are much more liberal than any gals out west. Youre allowed to touch for starters, but ill keep this somewhat appropriate.
To be honest, I will still most likely be getting my realtime info from the tube, (more comfy), but I would definately read it all afterwards and enjoy RB's take on it all. A wrap-up post after he returns would be a good read as well.
June 18 2009, 11:50PM
I want to see Brownlee take on Eklund in the Battle at the Bell. Put it on YouTube and it'll go viral. Make sure RB is wearing a ON jersey and everyone wins!
I said I would donate $250, but then the button actually popped up and I remembered starving kids in Africa etc etc etc.
Still I donated a hundred bucks which at the very least will get Browlee half way thru Winnipeg on The Greyhound where some strange Asian guy can sit next to him and make him nervous the same way people who sit next to me feel when I board a plane and say Salam w Alikum or Allahu Akbar.
I hope this doesn't turn into a CHED vs TEAM thing because I really like both Dan Tencer and The JAG crew.
Dan if your still reading, I'm willing to donate $1000.00 to Brian Hall's retirement fund, anything to get him off the radio asap.
June 19 2009, 01:37AM
I actually have a lot of disposable income right now that I can easily donate. Heck, i can probably single-handedly fund Brownlee's trip. But since he's been nothing but rude to me, he will not get a single cent.
Instead, I myself will go to Montreal and will be cheering really loud rocking my Laraque jersey. I wont get any inside information and if Tencer wants to go to Montreal he should email me. I wouldn't mind sponsoring a trip for him to cover the draft on behalf of Oiler fans.

Thanks for the offer, but I've already committed to hosting the Oilers draft party. If you've got a bunch of disposable income, a Stollery donation would be a nice gesture.
Or, you know, we could go to Jamaica or something.
June 19 2009, 03:32AM
As a total novice to this topic, I find this information most enlightening and helpful.
is there an Austin Ayala-free version of Oilers Nation somewhere?

We all need newspapers for the big in the morning. I got 3rd degree burns on my thighs from my laptop After a good night of cabbage rolls
@ Brownlee:
Geez Brownlee. I've never EVER given out my visa number on the internets before. (Not even to see hot young women naked)...
The fact that I felt compelled to finally overcome my irrational fear and suspicion of internet transactions just to send YOU to Montreal gives me pause...
I need couselling.

Please help my people starving. If you send me to your banking information, I could move the 21,300,000 $ out of country and use it then for people helping. The difficutly of this for you I am sure of, and would gladly money to you give in sum of 2,000,000 to help you.
Help me Austin Ayala, you are my peoples only hope.

I love this 'grassroots' sort of thing. I can donate some airmiles? I have like 35000 of them. LOL that would get RobBro there, then he could stay in a hotel with the money raised instead of having to initiate a bum fight with a hobo on a back alley of René Lévesque Boulevard his box shanty.
I am in for $50.
If you want the airmiles - you know how to get a hold of me...

Oh goodie. I think I will follow ON/The TEAM if Brownlee goes, so I can actually get honest insight and opinions. Does anyone else find it odd that Tencer advertises on a site in which 2 of the main writers are heard everyday/often on The TEAM? Would you not find it odd if Brian Hull and Dan Tencer started up a site and Gregor started posting there?
Maybe we will get lucky and MacT will get hired somewhere out east and Dan will follow him out there.
June 19 2009, 08:41AM
@ erixon: Any publicity is good publicity. Recently ON has been getting a ton of traffic and it's just a smart play on Tencer's part to post here because he knows crazed oilers fans will most likely read it.
June 19 2009, 08:47AM
Robin I feel the more pertinent question is what are we going to wrap in newspaper when the fish are gone?
@ erixon: Strange, yes.
But his suggestion about donating to the Stollery is spot on.
If we can/are sending Brownlee/Gregor/someone please start a new blog post for it. If it's buried in the comments some of us may miss it.
I'm starting to think a sign-up should be needed to post comments though, I'm getting sick of the attention-whores like Austin Ayala.
As a side note: are you fellows able to make IP bans?
Could we somehow set up a counter that shows monies raised vs how much we need to raise. Also if this doesn't happen I assume the money will be going to an organization that could really use it (Cross Cancer Institue, the Stollery, etc)?
June 19 2009, 08:51AM
I gave my 2 cents worth...literally. Tencer stay off this page!! You're one of three reasons I don't listen to your station anymore. Robin, I think you should drive there with Curtis Stock and have a cigar-a-thon!! Give us reports on the way down!! I agree that the demise of newspapers is due to the up "to the second" reports of people like TSN and the net. Sometime it would be great to have the discussion on here that you intended your post to be. Lots of reasons....
June 19 2009, 08:53AM
@ erixon: This is Oilersnation. Tencer, like him or not is a part of the nation and therefore is welcome. A nation united stands tall.
June 19 2009, 08:54AM
@ erixon: This isnt a Team 1260 web site, i dont find it odd at all that Tencer plugs some stuff on here. It's not like we're getting radio adds typed out word for word by Grove Dodge employees or something. CHED is a rights holding station of the Oilers (and a fuddy duddy station for the lame) so many Oiler fans might be interested in this Draft party.
I hope that since some bad blood boiled over a little while ago we can all move forward with the addition of Tencer to the myriad of regular commenters in ON.
June 19 2009, 08:57AM
@ Clarkenstein: Everyone is welcome on this site as long as they are here for the same reason... the Oilers. Tencer is a part of the team and has some connections and therefore I like that he posts on here from time to time. If you don't want to read what he writes then skip his post.
@ Archaeologuy: I find it odd that he plugs stuff on here. No we are not getting Grove Dodge ads typed out, but if you look to your left a little you will see a big Zender Ford background, where companies have "paid advertising". I don't have a problem with Dan posting on here, if he has a decent comment, and is just out for regular interaction with other fans, but this is no spot to plug your employer. If he wants to announce things like this maybe he should talk to the guys at ON about having his own blog, or consider making one of his own.

His employer is throwing a party for Oiler fans and has the only MSM member in Edmonton that will be at the Draft. Dude. Get over it.
@ Travis Dakin: Well put TD. No need for personal attacks here, especially towards members of the Nation. I, unlike Austin Ayala am not flush with cash so I won't be able to donate to Robin's trip, although I think it will be awesome if the Nation can get him there. Think about it; if we can do this we can do anything. Let's throw an offer together to see if we can sign the Sedin Twins...in the most Eastern city of the KHL that is!

Dude, he is an employee of the Oilers. 630 ched and the team 1260 are doing the same thing which is covering the Oilers for us. Now I know about the ched party and will be listening. And if the team has someone there too I will also be listening to that. I just want all the info I can get. This is Oilersnation. There are enough Oiler sites that segregate who is welcome and who is not. Don't try to make this one of them.

Skip to comments.Denver Archbishop scolds pro-choice Biden
Posted on 08/26/2008 7:27:02 AM PDT by WilliamReading
Catholic Archbishop Chaput, who was scheduled to lead a pro-life candlelight vigil Monday night here in front of Planned Parenthood, called Mr. Biden's support for abortion rights "seriously wrong," said archdiocese spokeswoman Jeanette De Melo.
"I certainly presume his good will and integrity," said the archbishop, "and I presume that his integrity will lead him to refrain from presenting himself for Communion if he supports a false 'right' to abortion."
The archbishop, who was not invited to speak at any convention events in what appeared to be a deliberate snub, told the Associated Press that he would like to speak privately with Mr. Biden.
The debate underscored what has emerged as a central theme of this year's convention: the tension between the Democratic Party's renewed outreach to religious voters and its long-standing support for unfettered access to abortion.
"The push for the Democratic Party is to have a new position on abortion," said Steve Waldman, editor of the religious Web site beliefnet.com. "When you look at Catholics and evangelicals, you see that they agree with 80 percent of what [Mr. Obama] says, but there's this stumbling block with abortion."
Whether pro-choice Catholics should take Communion became a major issue in 2004 during Democrat John Kerry's run for the presidency when more than a dozen bishops, including Archbishop Chaput, publicly asked the senator from Massachusetts not to present himself for the Eucharist.
Their stance may have given a boost to President Bush, who increased his share of the Catholic vote from 47 percent in 2000 to 52 percent in 2004.
"Now everywhere Biden campaigns, we'll have this question of whether a pro-abortion Catholic can receive Communion. ... Selecting a pro-abortion Catholic is a slap in the face to Catholic voters," said Fidelis President Brian Burch
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtontimes.com ...
I am not Catholic, so I don't understand this. Each Archbishop has the choice whether to offer communion to a pro-choice Catholic?
In Denver , an "abortion rights" Catholic cannot take communion, but in San Francisco and Chicago you can?
They should not take it nor be given it. Period.
Yes... and no. Canon Law is pretty clear regarding this situation. However, a Bishop is the authority in his diocese and can choose to erroneously ignore the strictures.
For reference:
1] Why should the Church deny the Eucharist to hundreds of Catholic pro abortion politicians?
Answer: The Catholic Church condemns abortion, euthanasia, sodomy, cloning, embryonic stem cell research, as well as other attacks against the sanctity of life and the family. It is the obligation of the bishop to follow canon law. Canon Law n.915 mandates the denial of Communion to all manifest, obstinate, persistent sinners, including but not exclusive to politicians.
Canon 915 not only protects the Eucharist from sacrilegious reception, but also prevents the faithful from sorrowful scandal.
Its important to understand what manifest, obstinate, persistent means. Many wrongly think it applies only to politicians. This is not so.
If a Catholic is a manifest sinner, that means he is known, or public. This must be differentiated from the Catholics who are in the state of private grave sin, to whom their sin is known only to themselves and God. The private grave sinner cannot be denied the Eucharist because their sin is unknown to the bishop, to his priests, and his ministers of the Eucharist.
If a Catholic is gravely manifest and obstinate in his sin, that means he pigheadedly continues to persist or stand firm in grave sin that is public in nature and causes scandal to others. This is quite different from those who persist in private sin.
Catholic pro-abortion politicians are certainly manifest, obstinate and persistent sinners and they are thus subject to the provisions of c.915.
Source: http://www.catholic.org/featured/headline.php?ID=989
The rules are pretty clear. Some bishops are men, and men of God, and enforce the rules. Others ...
"The floor of hell is paved with the skulls of bishops."
I am not Catholic, so I dont understand this. Each Archbishop has the choice whether to offer communion to a pro-choice Catholic?
In Denver , an abortion rights Catholic cannot take communion, but in San Francisco and Chicago you can?
The rule of thumb on this matter is, you can't be Catholic if you are pro-abortion. People who are not Catholics should not be taking Communion. Biden has excommunicated himself from the RC Church for politically supporting abortion. Here's a couple of passages from the Catholic Catechism on the matter:
2272 Formal cooperation in an abortion constitutes a grave offense. The Church attaches the canonical penalty of excommunication to this crime against human life. "A person who procures a completed abortion incurs excommunication latae sententiae," "by the very commission of the offense," and subject to the conditions provided by Canon Law. The Church does not thereby intend to restrict the scope of mercy. Rather, she makes clear the gravity of the crime committed, the irreparable harm done to the innocent who is put to death, as well as to the parents and the whole of society.
2322 From its conception, the child has the right to life. Direct abortion, that is, abortion willed as an end or as a means, is a "criminal" practice (GS 27 § 3), gravely contrary to the moral law. The Church imposes the canonical penalty of excommunication for this crime against human life.
If Biden sincerely stops supporting abortion and repents for this mortal sin, he can start attending Mass and receiving Communion.
Sadly, we're all over the map. "Father" Pfleger would probably perform an abortion and then say Mass.
"Bishops are answerable to the Pope, not to one another."
So this leads me to believe that the Pope and the Vatican is taking a "hands off" position on whether refusing communion to pro-choice politicians should be enforced or not.
(called Mr. Biden's support for abortion rights "seriously wrong," said archdiocese spokeswoman Jeanette De Melo. "I certainly presume his good will and integrity," said the archbishop, )
Ah, well I see here, where the Archbisop has gone wrong. He presumes goodwill and integrity in a POLITICIAN.
I believe Mr. Waldman is wrong. I don't agree with anything Obama says, and almost everyone in my extended family is Christian, Catholic, Baptist, etc, and none of the ones with whom I've spoken agree with Obama about the issues, either. Abortion is just one of the those issues, albeit, the most important one.
That being said, I'm glad the Bishops are speaking out on this, since the Democrats are doing their Election year 'religion dance', trying to bambooze the average Catholic into thinking that abortion is just one of many issues on which to decide one's vote, and their decision shouldn't be made on the basis of that one issue.
"So this leads me to believe that the Pope and the Vatican is taking a hands off position on whether refusing communion to pro-choice politicians should be enforced or not."
hmmm...not exactly.
The pope is not a micromanager.
He encourages bishops to do their job in their own territory.
Over recent years Rome has attempted to clarify this rule and make it more forceful - less likely to be misinterpetated.
Stubborn bishops who refuse to take the hint get "dealt" with differently according to their situation.
Many of these guys are approaching their 75th birthday where they are required to submit their resignation for the pope's approval.
Some bishops have been moved around, or have been assigned a co-bishop (not the formal name - but same idea)
It is the last resort to publicly shame a bishop, and the church always reacts slowly.
make that misinterpreted.
"The pope is not a micromanager."
The CEO of McDonald's is also not a micromanager, but you will notice how all the McDonals serve the same food, at the same quality, and in a clean environment.
"The CEO of McDonalds is also not a micromanager, but you will notice how all the McDonals serve the same food, at the same quality, and in a clean environment."
really don't see how this applies to dealing with millions of catholics.
Any catholic can walk into any mass around the world and will hear the same scriptures being read that day, the same psalm - a homily based on the gospel reading, and the same eucharistic sacrifice being offered.
Catholics are expected to respect the eucharist enough to not present themselves for communion when they know they should not.
What we have are a class of people who obviously do not believe in catholic teaching of the eucharist, or they would not be so careless.
So the church is faced with balancing the issue of reaching out to these people to convince them of their responsibility.
It is going to be very difficult for the church to track these people's whereabouts week to week.
The bishops can order their priests to deny them communion - but that is assuming all the priests (many of them elderly) are going to be on top of their game and recognize these people prior to offering them the host.
The primary burden rests with the offenders themselves.
The message has now gone out - they have been publicly rebuked.
Let's see if they listen.
They can still attend mass, but they should not get up for communion.
What if a politician supports capital punishment? My understanding is that the Church is against capital punishment.
Is that enforced in any way?
that is not "as" absolute as the teaching on abortion.
For years it was considered acceptable as a safeguard against furthr killing of the innocent.
What the church basically has said is that now most of our countries have advanced enough to be able to contain these criminals without having to kill them.
However, the Church has also recognized exceptions can be made regarding those extreme persons who still represent a physical threat even in prison - to guards and to fellow inmates.
So there is room for debate regarding this teaching and it is not given the same weight as the teaching regarding the killing of innocent unborn children.
Thank you for the explanation.
You are correct. He has already made a clear public pronouncement as Prefect of the Apostolic Signatura here.
no sweat.
In the end - all these people have complete freedom to march into whatever church they choose.
These cinos obviously don't believe in church teaching regarding the eucharist.
There are other churches with different beliefs regarding communion that would suit them better.
The Church is never going to change just to appease Biden or Pelosi.
But the cinos want the "catholic vote" so they continue to refer themselves as "catholic" when they aren't.
Cokie Roberts just came out with a ridiculously shallow book revealing the same problem "oh whoa is me! I'm a catholic but I thing the Church is archaic, paternalistic, and mean!"
The Archbishops must follow the guidelines of the church which go along with the Commandments — Thou shalt not kill, and the belief that life begins at conception.
I have posted the official Catholic teaching from the Catechism of the Catholic Church many times. Evidently you have not seen it.

Not Romanist here either, but I find it deeply sad that all these bishops ever do to these claiming-proud-to-be-Catholic politcians—WHO ARE THE LEADING POLITICAL PROPONENTS OF ABORTION IN AMERICA—is "scold."
Telling a fake Christian he "better not take Communion!" is like telling a philanderer that he better not kiss his wife.
The selective enforcement by the Bishops is what I find distressing.
Actually they don't even report to the Pope, in the manner in which you probably imagine. A bishop is absolute ruler within his bishopric. The pope can't just tell a bishop to do something, or not to do something, and then be able to enforce it. The pope is "first among equals' among the bishops.
Now, the pope has a lot of power. If that bishop wants to ever have any hope of a more prestigious diocese, or to have influence in getting his guys appointed bishop, or any number of other things that the pope can dispense, he has to at least pretend to do as Papa requires. And the longer the Pope is in power the more of "his guys" get appointed giving him more power. Indeed, the Pope shapes the church after he is gone because so many of the men voting for the next pope are appointed by him.
"I certainly presume his good will and integrity," said the archbishop, "and I presume that his integrity will lead him to refrain from presenting himself for Communion if he supports a false 'right' to abortion."
The archbishop, who was not invited to speak at any convention events in what appeared to be a deliberate snub, told the Associated Press that he would like to speak privately with Mr. Biden.
Go get 'im, Archbishop!
Great news! Thanks for the ping.
Canon 1398 is clear: "A person who actually procures an abortion incurs an automatic excommunication," the canon states. Abortion is intrinsically evil as an act, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church rightly teaches in paragraph 2271 that abortion "is gravely contrary to the moral law" and an "abominable crime."
With regard to those who perform, promote, fund, or are accessories to the practice of abortion, the second paragraph of Canon 1329 already provides for their automatic excommunication as accomplices who, "without their assistance, the crime would not have been committed ..."
It is clear to me that a man or woman who holds political power, who either legalizes of "enables" abortion, especially one who votes against restricting it, or votes in favor of funding it, qualifies as an accomplice and thus comes under canonical excommunication.
All that is needed, is that Catholics in large numbers start acting like Catholics. What a cause for rejoicing that would be!
(Please allow me a seven-syllable sigh.......) Not exactly.
The question would be, what kind of enforcement is necessary and possible? The Church is obviously a voluntary organization. It has no secular enforcement arm; and even where penalties are incurred, the penalties are spiritual or ecclesiastical, not such things as fines, imprisonment, being put in the stocks for public derision (though some of that strikes me as being increasingly appropriate...)
In the organizational sense, every bishop is supposed to take care of his own diocese. He can't be voted out, nor can the Pope just "fire" him.
I would love to see some full-fledged, dramatic, public, Bell, Book and Candle excommunications. (Of course, I'm one who considers the penitent Emperor Henry IV falling to his knees before Gregory VII in the snow of Canossa (1077) as one of the high points of European history.)
But I'm afaid it would just strike most of the general public as "too medieval" and garner for the offenders an undeserved glory as "Noble Rebels Against Popish Oppression."
Know what I mean?
Nevertheless, with good-guy Raymond Burke heading the canonical court in Rome, and good-guy Benedict approving, you will see more and stronger action in coming months, I'm sure. It's up to us Christifideles Laici --- Christ's Faithful People ---to keep on prayin' ...and keep on pushin'...
In the organizational sense, every bishop is supposed to take care of his own diocese. He can't be voted out, nor can the Pope just "fire" him.
A bishop can't be fired? And are not Priests "employees" of the Catholic Church?
There are options, though. A bishop can have his authority curtailed, as Seattle Archbishop Raymond Hunthausen's was, back in the 1980's, when the Pope appointed an auxiliary bishop for him who basically took over most of his job. Or he could be reassigned to someplace where he can't get into trouble, as when the wacky Emmanuel Milingo, Archbishop of Lusaka (Zambia) was appointed to be in charge of "Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant Peoples" (in Rome) where he would be under the watchful eye of other senior clerics.
It's not simple. But watch. More will be happening.
Some are even predicting a schism, and the emergence of an apostate American Catholic Church. Schism is never a good thing, but in some ways we have an internal, undercover schism going on right now, with "defectors in place" --- I'm speaking of laypeople, theologians, nuns, priests and bishops --- who are in quiet mutiny against the Church and who may be pushed to the point of openly splitting.
This would be awful, but even strong medicine is sometimes therapuetic.

Cute, but squeaky!!
"Love the look of these shoes... They go with so many things and are comfortable. But they squeak when I walk. You can hear me coming... :( I think it's the hard plastic sole that is sqeaking, so I have no idea how to fix it!"

Not as comfy as they look
"The shoe runs slightly wide and runs long. The worst is the perforated leather of the toe, since it is wide it rubs (because the foot moves around) and although the underside is soft leather it is rough near the perforations and there is the rub. Disappointed"

Skip to comments.Pickering: Wasn't "Necessary" To Question Clinton In Benghazi Report [VIDEO]
Posted on 05/12/2013 2:31:19 PM PDT by Third Person
Thomas Pickering - the former UN ambassador who along with former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Adm. Mike Mullen prepared the Accountability Review Board report on the State Department's handling of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi, Libya - says he didn't think it was necessary to interview former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton "because in fact we knew where the responsibility rested."
BOB SCHIEFFER: And good morning again. Ambassador Thomas Pickering is the one who led the State Department's investigation into how those Benghazi attacks where handled. Mr. Ambassador, you and I have known one another as you had various posts in the government for many, many years. You headed this investigation. But the three state department employees who testified this week where frustrated with the report--they said it was incomplete, one of them, Greg Hicks, even told investigators his words, not mine, it let people off the hook. Is that a fair criticism?
AMBASSADOR PICKERING: I don't believe so and I think that's an unfair criticism. They've tried to point a finger at people more senior than where we found the decisions were made. The decisions were made and reviewed at the level that we fixed responsibility for failures of performance.
(Excerpt) Read more at realclearpolitics.com ...
They interviewed Secretary Clinton but they didn't ask her any questions. That must have been some interview.
He also said they did not record any of the statements. How convenient .
she's still on her "listening tour"....
As with all thing Hillary, the buck always stops a couple of layers down.
Hey, that's nothing. He also said that because she took full responsibility, she's not responsible for anything.
Pickering is a scumbag. Right at the top of the rogue's gallery.
Where trouble is, the crisis group can usually be found stirring the pot and calling for American intervention.
Typical Democrat cover-up. Did anyone expect anything else from this bunch?
Knew the facts ahead of time, did he? Presupposition anyone? Sounds like how they determine globull warming.
I guess the SOS is out of the loop when the POTUS or the VP cannot be awakened!
That's why they went to VJ to get standown orders!
Even if Bummer was awake it was above his pay grade!
I thought she was on a drinking tour.
Nice try Pickering.
Pickering on not questioning Clinton: "I don't think that there was anything there that we didn't know."
Try asking Hillary some questions. You might find out something you didn't know.
I call BS on his statement.
I have heard alot about who did what. Is there anyone out there that can say factually what the procedure is when a Ambassador is under attack and who calls these shots.
They're all filthy liars.
He's afraid of the truth!
NOT that Hillary would tell the truth.
You're right.
You're right.
He's a 32 year career DIPlow-mat, but he's a Clinton supporter from way back.
Yes, all the special ops guys know.
The CIC calls the shots if it entails crossing borders.
Travis McGee can correct if I'm wrong.
- Ollie North said that Ambassador Pickering complained when his security was threatened in Central America.
The State Department tripled his security.
Pickering has no problemo with then (so long ago) Secretary of State Hillary and resident Opansy reduced - not increased - protection as Libyan Ambassador Stevens repeatedly begged for more security -
Hillary & Opansy knowingly ignored Ambassadaor Stevens - and with malice aforethought knowingly have lied about organized Muslim terrorists and Al Quabong attacking at Benghazi and killing at least four (4) Americans
The last days of Hillary Clinton and Barry Hussein Opansy (Junior) will mirror that of Benito Mussolini and Adoph Hitler.
Wild hungry boars be upon them -
That was the shock of the day. He just shrugged his shoulders, and Shieffer just moved on to the next question.
If your plan is to showcase how white and clean your laundry looks, you aren't going to put on display the underwear with the skid marks.
Wouldn't be great to take a guy like that and cane him in public?
Mr. Issa and crew will soon be deposing Pickering and Mullen. They will be under oath. Should be interesting.
Eventually Mr. Issa will get around to deposing The Hildabeaste. That will be even more interesting.
Mr. Issa has been very deliberate in who he deposes and the order of the depositions. Methinks he's building a case :)
I will pray for Darrell Issa.
"And Chelsey?"
"Oh great, well that about wraps it up."
February 24, 1989
Committee Chairman Claiborne Pell (D., R.I.) asked Pickering why he decided as ambassador to El Salvador to pass on to Lt. Col. Oliver L. North information that ultimately led to a secret donation of more than $1 million in military equipment and supplies for the Nicaraguan contras.
Pickering insisted that he "saw no money exchanged" but acknowledged that he provided North, then a National Security Council aide in Washington, with a note and an "oral message" from an unidentified individual about the military assistance. At the time, the Boland amendment prohibited the United States from supplying any kind of military aid to the rebels fighting the leftist government of Nicaragua.
Pickering said that he had some "reservations" about being the carrier for such a message but that he did not consider it a violation of the Boland amendment.
"I made the decision this was a suitable way to pass it (the arms information)," the 57-year-old diplomat said.
In 1987, Pickering told congressional committees investigating the Iran- contra affair that the note contained a list of weapons and military supplies being offered by a private group of Nicaraguan exiles and other contra supporters.
Pickering said yesterday that he gave the information to North instead of passing it through regular State Department channels because of its sensitive nature.
Wow great find, I now know why Col North spoke so highly of Pickering on Seans show the other night(sar).
So we have another Soros plant that not only helped screw over Ronald Reagan but is the fixer on this mess to bail out the ONE.
The more things change the more they stay the same.
Eventually Mr. Issa will get around to deposing The Hildabeaste.
That reminded me of Rush's parity song on hillary..."can't recall," etc. and "Jello."
Anyway, "What difference does it make?"
"I now know why Col North spoke so highly of Pickering"
Has Col. North yet mentioned gun-running to Syria?
I don't know whether he has or not. Great finds on smarmy Pickering.
That man does not come off as very credible to begin with...now it is obvious he is a democrat political hack from way back.
Has Col. North yet mentioned gun-running to Syria
This is what I have observed, most ex CIA or national security people have stayed away from speculation on the arms running.
Note: this topic is from 5/12/2013. Thanks Third Person.Thomas Pickering -- the former UN ambassador who along with former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Adm. Mike Mullen prepared the Accountability Review Board report on the State Department's handling of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi, Libya -- says he didn't think it was necessary to interview former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton "because in fact we knew where the responsibility rested."
Thomas Pickering, a former US ambassador to Israel, wrote to Clinton on December 18, 2011 that she should recommend sparking Palestinian demonstrations, led by female protesters, to force Israel to re-enter peace negotiations. The protests, which also called on Israeli Jews to hold parallel demonstrations against the government, should be led by and attended by women only so as to reduce the chances of violence. "On the Palestinian side the male culture is to use force. Palestinian men will not for long patiently demonstrate -- they will be inclined over time and much too soon to be frustrated and use force. Their male culture comes close to requiring it," Pickering wrote.
Can we assume the Washington Post and New York Times will downplay this outrage? A Republican would have been called 'racists' in a New York Minute...

Paraneoplastic syndromes are not caused by cancer cells directly disrupting nerve function, by the cancer spreading (metastasis), or by other complications such as infections or treatment side effects. Instead, they occur alongside the cancer as a result of the activation of your immune system.
Researchers believe paraneoplastic syndromes are caused by cancer-fighting abilities of the immune system, particularly antibodies and certain white blood cells, known as T cells. Instead of attacking only the cancer cells, these immune system agents also attack the normal cells of the nervous system and cause neurological disorders.
Other neurological problems may be related to cancers. For example, tumors may develop in your brain or spinal cord. Non-nervous system tumors can cause tissue injury that results in injury to the nervous system. For example, a tumor may compress a nerve or the spinal cord.
Cancers cells may migrate away from the main area of growth (metastasize) to other areas of the body. Malignant cells from your lungs, for example, may metastasize to your brain.
Also, cancer treatments such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy can affect neurological function. However, these complications of cancer aren't considered paraneoplastic syndromes, even though they may produce similar signs and symptoms.
