The Rundown: Cubs Baseball Just Around Corner, Hoyer Bullish on Cole Hamels, Best Super Bowl Ads, Phillies Manager Responds to Allegations
Did you watch that Super Bowl last night? Apparently you can take the Rams out of St. Louis but you can't take the boring out of the Rams. Too soon? How about this: What do the Rams and Saints have in common? Neither scored a touchdown in Super Bowl LIII.
You know if the Cubs win five world championships in the next 15 years, everybody outside of Chicago will hate them as much as everybody outside of Boston hates the Patriots.
And, now that football season has ended…

— Chicago Cubs (@Cubs) February 4, 2019
This is actually one of my favorite times of the year. Once football ends I get amped up for the Grammy Awards, the Daytona 500, spring training, March Madness, my fantasy baseball auction, and then Opening Day. It is, for me, the most glorious eight weeks of every year. Oh yeah, St. Patrick's Day and my birthday land on that same timeline. Hopefully the Cubs will be sweeping the Rangers just as I start my 55th lap around the sun.
Speaking of 55…
It's going to be 55 degrees in Chicago today, which is nearly 80 degrees warmer than it was on Wednesday and Thursday. That rapid change in temperature should add about 500 potholes to my commute. What a time to be alive.
If you've read this far and you're wondering when I am going to start talking about the Cubs, well, I know I can't top what went down this weekend, so I'm not sure what to write. I was counting on a more exciting football game or better commercials, so now I feel as if I am leaving you less than fulfilled. What to do?
Speaking of fulfillment…
Viagra decided not to advertise in yesterday's yawnfest, though Amazon's incredibly phallic logo and gushing hot tub lined up perfectly with the horrible misuse of Howlin' Wolf in past Super Bowl commercials. As far as football games go, yesterday's could have used a similar type of boost. After I saw the Amazon commercial — which I loved — I wasn't sure if I needed a new puppy, an Amazon Echo, or some sildenafil citrate.
Hey look, Amazon even uses an icon that looks suspiciously like a little blue pill. Suggestive selling, targeted marketing, or simply telling us Amazon is always at peak performance? Jeff Bezos just turned 55 a few weeks ago and Mr. Fahrenheit recently left his wife. Maybe he just wants to make supersonic men and women of all of us. Don't…stop…me…now, 'cuz I'm having a good time.
Even the Ma-ruined halftime show could have used a little extra thrust.
Anyway, back to baseball. If you made it this far you'll be happy to know that I do believe Bryce Harper is going to sign somewhere this week. That is my opinion, and not sourced information, since my sources don't count. Once it's announced, I'll be sure to message Patrick Mooney for verification, whether Harper signs with the Cubs or not.
Cubs News & Notes
- This article says the Cubs shot down the rumor of a meeting with Harper, but it was just Mooney, who works for The Athletic, which is not owned by Tom Ricketts. The first comment at the end of the linked article is positively sublime.
- For what it's worth, my buddy's co-workers are calling him "Deep Throat" now and they are calling me and Evan Woodward and Bernstein. Hopefully our lives aren't in danger.
- This is the craziest proposal to date to free up enough money for the Cubs to sign Harper or Manny Machado. Readers be warned, you may get more than a little riled up as you read it. I had to read it twice to believe it, and then I cursed myself for doing so. It would be nice if you could snap your fingers and half of baseball would bow to your every nonsensical whim.
- New Cubs pitcher Tony Barnette dove headfirst into all the rumors surrounding Harper. I think I'm going to like this guy in the team's bullpen. I can't wait to see him bust out his home run dance moves.
- Former Cubs prospect Luke Hagerty is back with the Cubs. The LHP was drafted 32nd overall by the Cubs out of Ball State back in 2002, but hasn't pitched professionally since 2008. Imagine if this guy wins Rookie of the Year at age 38? It's a long shot, no doubt. Hagerty allowed 45 earned runs in the last 24 1/3 innings of his career.
- Jed Hoyer has "zero second thoughts" about picking up the option on Cole Hamels' contract. I'll say this until I am blue in the face: that $20 million option is not the reason the Cubs have yet to spend in free agency.
- The development path of Kyle Hendricks through the Cubs system may offer a template of sorts for first round draft choice Nico Hoerner.
Monday Stove
The Phillies remain optimistic that they'll land one of Machado or Harper. In case you're tracking at home, that's a much more understated vote of confidence than when the Fightins' front office claimed themselves "favorites" to land Harper a few weeks ago.
Phillies manager Gabe Kapler is treading in hot water after a report indicated that he mishandled an alleged assault while employed by the Dodgers. To recap, a 17-year-old girl was assaulted while partying with two Dodgers minor league players and two women in Glendale, Ariz in February 2015. The women allegedly assaulted the girl while one of the players videotaped it. A week after the incident, according to the report, the girl told police that she was sexually assaulted by one of the players. On Saturday, Kapler claimed that he had no knowledge of the incident.
Kapler could lose his job over the allegation that he failed to notify the organization when the incident took place.
The Padres view Harper as a business/marketing gold mine. Beware Bryce, San Diego is where endorsement deals go to die. The Friars reside in baseball's fourth smallest television market, ahead of only Cincinnati, Kansas City, and Milwaukee.
White Sox skipper Rick Renteria hopes to have his first winning season as a major league manager in 2019.
The Rockies are hoping to sign Nolan Arenado to an extension. The slugging third baseman can become a free agent after this season.
The Reds are still hoping to trade for J.T. Realmuto, and it looks like they may not have to give up top prospect Nick Senzel to land the catcher. Derek Jeter is clueless. He's allegedly turned down better offers for Realmuto previously.
Any hope the Dodgers have of acquiring Corey Kluber from the Indians is now on life support.
Roger Clemens is 56 years old but still flashes a plus breaking ball.
Five years before the Patriots famously nabbed Tom Brady 199th overall in the 2000 NFL Draft, the Montreal Expos selected him in the 18th round of the minor league draft — as a catcher out of Junipero Serra High School in California.

The verdict of United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres at the Climate Action Summit, which convened Monday in New York, was that "time is running out." The emphasis of that meeting was "action." Guterres said only governments that made commitments to control climate change that went beyond previous pledges would be allowed to speak at the gathering.
Scientists are increasingly concerned that it is too late for even bold steps; the climate is already changing and only radical programs can hope to work.
It has been a busy week for climate activism. Last Friday, young people across the planet went on strike, taking to the streets to demand radical action to address climate change. It is estimated that students from 156 countries joined the Global Climate Strike, with total crowd size reckoned to have reached 4 million people. That is a substantial jump from the 1.4 million who marched during the first strike in March.
An estimated 270,000 people protested in Berlin, as many as 250,000 demonstrated in New York, 100,000 in London and a similar number demanded action in Australia. In Japan, the numbers were much smaller. Less than 3,000 gathered in front of the U.N. University building in Shibuya, and groups demanded change in other major cities. Organizers in Japan bemoaned a lack of interest and a low turnout among this country's youth. That is at odds with government polls that consistently show strong majority support for Japanese contributions to help solve problems such as global warming.
The strike was a prelude to the Youth Climate Summit, a special conference whose 700 activists generated enthusiasm and expectations for the Climate Action Summit, held just before the U.N. General Assembly. Their message was simple: Elected officials must take real action to address climate change or they will be voted out of office. "You are failing us," thundered Greta Thunberg, a 16-year-old Swedish activist who launched the climate strike with a solitary protest in front of her country's parliament over a year ago. "We are in the beginning of a mass extinction and yet all you can talk about is money."
Those fiery denunciations set the stage for the more traditional event Monday at the U.N. That meeting brought together governments, activists and, significantly, businesses to focus on and mobilize to address climate change. At the summit's end, 77 countries had committed to carbon neutrality — not adding more carbon to the atmosphere than is being removed by plants and technology — by 2050 and 70 had promised to do more to fight warming. Guterres is pressing governments not to build new coal power plants after 2020, and Germany and Finland promised to ban coal within a decade.
As, if not more, important were commitments by businesses to do more. One hundred major businesses pledged to join the green economy and one-third of the global banking sector signed up to green goals. Governments must do more to encourage that behavior, for example, by ending subsidies for fossil fuels, which could cut global carbon emissions by up to 10 percent by 2030. Nonprofit organizations also have a crucial role to play. The Gates Foundation, in cooperation with the World Bank and some European governments, announced a nearly $800 million aid package to help 300 million small farmers adapt to climate change.
There is no time to lose. A new U.N. report warns climate change is accelerating and old goals no longer suffice. Greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, reaching "historic levels" of 53.5 gigatons of carbon dioxide equivalent, and there is no indication that they are peaking. Global sea levels will rise as Arctic sea ice continues to melt, this year tying for the second-lowest mark in 40 years of monitoring. U.N. experts are increasingly pessimistic, and have concluded that greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced by 25 percent by 2030 to keep warming to no more than 2 degrees above pre-industrial levels and must be halved to keep temperatures from rising just 1.5 degrees. The signs are not promising.
Japan should play a leading role in this effort. It has spearheaded environmental action in the past, helping produce the Kyoto Protocol, the Nagoya Protocol and the Aichi Biodiversity Targets. That activism has waned, however, as Japan struggles with its own energy plans in the wake of the shutdowns of most nuclear power plants following the 2011 Fukushima nuclear accident.
Environment Minister Shinjiro Koizumi, promised that Japan is "committed to realizing a decarbonized society, and we are ready to contribute as a more powerful country in the fight against climate change." He walks a fine line: His determination to reduce Japan's reliance on nuclear power would seem to support the Japanese government's plans to add coal-fired power generation capacity, which in turn increases greenhouse gas emissions. He must do more or he too will risk becoming a target of the ire of Thunberg and her fellow activists.

The natural catlinite or pipestone is a kind of argillite, which is found in the central North America. It gets its name 'pipestone' due to the fact that it was used by some Native Americans in making ceremonial smoking pipes. Further, this gemstone is usually brownish-red in color –that occurs in a particular matrix of the Sioux Quartzite. Due to the fact that it is fine-grained and can easily be worked, it is valued by the Native Americans, mainly those of the Plains nations in making ceremonial pipes, just as the chanunpas. In this article, we will be discussing more facts about catlinite, including its essential benefits. Read on to this article to learn more!
Catlinite Meanings and Properties
Catlinite is actually a type of metamorphosed mudstone or argillite, which forms in the matrix of the Sioux Quartzite. This stone is also called the pipeclay or pipestone. The catlinite quarries are found and preserved at the Pipestone National Monument in Pipestone, Minnesota, USA. It may also be found in the Pipestone River in Manitoba, Canada.
Moreover, the catlinite that comes from these pipestone quarries is called the second softest stone in the whole world. Furthermore, it rests under the Sioux Quartzite that's considered to be the second solidest stone in the whole world.
This is also the sacred red clay stone, which is used traditionally as a ceremonial stone in the Native American ceremonies. Further, it's also frequently used in making totems, ceremonial pipes, and talismans. The catlinite may just be located in only a few locations in this planet. The finest quality of it comes from the South Western Minnesota.
The clay that you can find in this stone is so smooth to touch, and may be quite effortlessly impressed, as well. When it's polished, it may also show a very beautiful shine. The colors of this stone may range from light pink to blood or dark brick red. In addition, it also frequently manifests small, brighter spots, which are known as starts that are dispersed all over the surface of the stone.
Catlinite is actually named after George Catlin, an American artist who wrote about the origin of the catlinite. He was also the first one to sketch the quarries of catlinite in the year 1836, in order for the western world to know about them.
Reasons to Use Catlinite
Catlinite may help you in realizing that your own spiritual and physical aspects are intertwined, and that your prayers may be unified in your day-to-day life. With the proper guidance of this stone, you might be able to see everything as holy, and nothing might be put aside from something else.
Catlinite may also inspire you to be much kinder, more generous, and more considerate to everything and everyone around you. This link between your physical and spiritual self is so reflective. The catlinite is a great stone for meditation as it may bring you deep kind of inner peace.
Moreover, the catlinite is also beneficial in healing expanses of dissonance, more especially when there might have been harm or abuse done to both animals and people. This particular stone may aid you in reconnection or connecting to the ancient wisdom of the Native Americans.
This may also aid in discovering your own ancestral link. The catlinite is a great manifestation stone, especially when you use it with opal. This stone will not just strengthen the whole process of manifestation, yet may also bring you much farther that you're expecting.
This is also an excellent stone, which may assist you in connecting you to the spiritual world. This is also a greatly effective gemstone, which may aid in making contact to the spirit of the Great Divine.
Catlinite Essential Benefits
Here are some of the most astonishing catlinite benefits that you need to know.
Catlinite for Health and Healing
Catlinite is a sacred stone for the Native Americans, ever since the ancient times –even up to this date. It is also a stone, which should be cured with respect and deference. In terms of its healing prowess, this stone may be essential to the lungs.
Catlinite for Wealth
The catlinite is a prevailing and inspiring gemstone to possess, especially when you wish to attain something big financially. This gemstone might make sure that you are grounded all the time, specifically when you begin to reap the fruits of your hardships.
Catlinite for Love and Relationship
This stone is a greatly spiritual stone, yet may also offer guidance, help, and support when you are going through some challenges or facing trying times. This is a stone that may give you emotional support when you wish to go to the bottom of a certain issue or you want to make the rightmost decisions.
Final Thoughts
Catlinite may help you in understanding that your own unworldly and bodily aspects are intertwined, and that your devotions may be unified in your everyday life. Catlinite may also motivate you to be much nicer, more substantial, and more understanding to everything and everyone around you. The catlinite is also a great gemstone for meditation, since it may bring you deep kind of inner peace.

Osteoarthritis Treatment? Have you ever seen a middle-aged woman with a rather plump stature walked with a bit stumped by the body at the waist to head swung horizontally to the left-right rhythm of his feet while the hip down to the leg seemed to swing toward the opposite? Believe me, he's not acting to get attention, but his reflex system is working to avoid the pain in the knees, waist and sometimes also in the ankle / heel. Usually one or both knees also pain and swelling, loin pain radiating to the lower limbs. Women like the one I described above are afflicted poor due to osteoarthritis and is avoiding the pain arising from the activities running.
The term always refers to osteoarthritis is degenerative joint damage which the joint space disappears because of cartilage that acts as a "mounting" [silencer] degenerated and thinned even gone so the ends of each bone directly meet and collide causing infection / inflammation characterized by swelling . Of course, the situation was "lost" this cartilage resulted in "Letting" connective tissue forming the joints so that the condition is also characterized by the loosening of joints.
Convergence of the two ends of the bone directly without "mounting" a joint system, a biomechanical will rub against each other when the limb is being carrying out its functions and friction harder when there are loads especially with a heavy load. This event also triggers inflammation, which in turn will form / grow new bone with a surface that is not flat / serrated which will add to the suffering because it was so painful. Events growth of new bone is actually a normal and natural process, where there is injury, there body tries to recover itself. Abnormal is the location / area is unusual, so since the injury at the end of the bone so new bone formation occurred there, if any injury / broken / cracked elsewhere then that is where your body system will work the same way, because the system of our body / bone continuously and constantly in a state building / remodeling, ie a situation in which osteoblasts form bone matrix membranes continuously in the bone marrow and transporting active ingredients across the membrane to initiate calcification in the area needed to build new bone. It's called by many as the calcification / osteophytes.
Due to growing irregular and rough, but the joints are then surely there will be appropriate levels of pain severity. If the response is silence joint pain is concerned almost no motion, then the process of degeneration faster rate so that the joints seemed to be full, and steadfastly stuck again [which generally occurs in small joints] and even memorable stiff, and likewise occurring in the connective tissue of his being as contractures / not elastic anymore. When forced to be moved instead there will be tremendous pain.
In essence, all the joints of this disease, but potentially the highest is the knee, lower back, neck, fingers. Factors other than age influence behavior, trauma and genetic. When being attacked by this disease together when uric-acid/asam veins are high the more it will be complete disabling affliction.
Why women are more likely to develop osteoarthritis?
Although it does not discriminate against gender, but why women are more likely to develop this disease? Because naturally menopausal women experience a process which is slowly hormone estrogen [which helps the joints remain elastic and slippery] stopped production so that these conditions will accelerate the process of damage joints. Apart from all that the highest age factor contributing role for these pathological conditions in addition to other factors.
While in the age of forty and above are used to weight balanced and regular exercise rhythmically without the burden or expense of a full-range minimal-movement at each joint plus isometric movement is believed to help joint flexibility in carrying out its functions without pain so as to avoid this disease.

Zombies — an undead fictional being created through the reanimation of a human corpse — are all the rage today in popular culture. Many have heard of the top-rated TV show The Walking Dead (the second most-popular TV show in the world) described as "in the years following a zombie apocalypse, survivors seek refuge in a world overrun by the dead." It has been running for nine seasons. There are other similar movies, programs, games, and activities that are quite popular as well. As we see the rise in the popularity of the fictional undead, it is interesting to note that there is a dramatic decline in the belief in God. Is this simply a coincidence, or does it show us something deeply flawed in today's culture?
According to Pew Research, nearly half of U.S. adults under 30 do not believe in Christianity's God and the degree of even a remote affiliation with any Christian religion varies by age group. A Barna Research study released in January 2018 reported that, "More than any other generation before them, Gen Z does not assert a religious identity . . . just three in five 13- to 18-year-olds say they are some kind of Christian (59%)." Would it be too much to suggest that within the 13- to 18-years-old group, perhaps more of them believe in zombies than in God? G.K. Chesterton wrote that "When men cease to believe in God, they do not then believe in nothing, they believe in anything."
What do Catholic youth believe in? Dr. Christian Smith, the preeminent social researcher on the religious knowledge and attitudes of American youths today, refers to the predominant belief system as Moralistic Therapeutic Deism. Smith asserts that out of all the religious denominations in the U.S., it is young Catholics who are contributing most to the growth of the "nones" — people who never were or are no longer affiliated with a religion. He says that it is because of "faux science" that poorly-educated Catholics are easily peeled away from the Truth.
Other social researchers have found the same weakness and susceptibility to faux science in Catholic youth. In 2016, Our Sunday Visitor Weekly published an article titled, "Young people are leaving the faith. Here's why: Many youths and young adults who have left the Church point to their belief that there is a disconnect between science and religion." According to the article, which was based on two national studies done by the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate (CARA), the youth are leaving because of "science." The "disconnect between science and religion" means that the materialism/naturalism explanation of origins taught in school destroys belief in the Bible and the supernaturalism upon which Catholicism depends. Children realize that both explanations of how the world and we humans came to be can't both be true.
At this point you may be wondering what all of this has to do with zombies.
There is a strong connection between zombies and loss of Faith. The "zombies" to which I refer are the scientifically dead materialistic hypotheses of human origins that are still walking around and being taught to children as proven facts by the schools and the culture. They are the "carriers" of the faux science that Christian Smith and others have identified as peeling away the faith of youth. The Catholic Church has the truth about the supernatural origin of the world and its inhabitants but it has yielded the education of its youth on those matters to the civil culture. According to paragraph 282 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church:
Catechesis on creation is of major importance. It concerns the very foundations of human and Christian life: for it makes explicit the response of the Christian faith to the basic question that men of all times have asked themselves: "Where do we come from?" "Where are we going?" "What is our origin?" "What is our end?" "Where does everything that exists come from and where is it going?" The two questions, the first about the origin and the second about the end, are inseparable. They are decisive for the meaning and orientation of our life and actions.
Too, Cardinal Ratzinger, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, published in 1995 a book called In the Beginning. In that book's preface the cardinal wrote: "the creation account is noticeably and completely absent from catechesis, preaching, and even theology. The creation narratives go unmentioned; it is asking too much to expect anyone to speak of them."
What Benedict's statement of fact also reveals is that clergy are not educated and prepared in the seminary to teach the creation doctrines, at least not with rationality and conviction. Arguably, the majority of clergy actually believe the creation myth of cosmic and biological evolution they learned in school, and the "scientific method" of biblical exegesis taught in many seminaries helps them to interpret the Bible in accordance with the secular creation myth. By so "interpreting," they can believe in evolution while still affirming the dogma that the Bible is inerrant, and that even if cosmic and biological evolution are true, "God did it."
The following example is from a lecture given in recent years at the Institute of Catholic Culture that was summarized by an attendee and published on the internet. I believe the lecturer is a very holy priest, who has an MA in Sacred Theology, was once an adjunct professor of theology at a nominally Catholic university, had been Dean of a Catholic graduate school that grants MA degrees in Theological Studies and Certificates in Catechetics, and in 2018 was appointed Vicar of Faith Formation for his diocese. According to the summary, Father began his lecture as follows:
The story of Genesis is the unfolding of creation: a movement from the formless wasteland to an ordered and designed creation that is good. Each day a new part of creation was ordered and created until finally on the sixth day, God created Man in His own image. The creation story spans over seven days. But, Fr. ******** rhetorically asked, where the Bible says that a day was a 24-hour period as most Protestants believe. Referring to the Psalms and other parts of the scriptures, a day to the Lord is like a thousand years (Ps 90:4; 2 Pet 3:8).
With his rhetorical question Father appeared to be teaching his belief in the "Day-Age Theory." That theory asserts that the days of the Genesis account not only were longer than 24 hours but also that they could have been eons (indefinitely long time periods). Eons, that is, millions and millions of years are necessary to the evolution creation myth. Any well-informed Protestant would know that Father was quoting 2 Peter 3:8 selectively because after it says "a day to the Lord is like a thousand years" it says "and a thousand years as one day." Peter wrote it as a rebuke to those scoffers doubting the promise of the Lord's Second Coming as is plain from verse 3. Father's quote of 2 Peter 3:8 was an inadequate means of supporting the rest of his lecture based on the theory that each of the days of Genesis were not what his audience understood a day to be.
The more sophisticated argument in support of the Day-Age Theory is that the Hebrew word for day, yôm, need not always mean a literal 24-hour period. That's true, but context matters. Father's seminary professors completely ignored the issue of context and followed in the footsteps of evolution-believing Bible scholars by committing the fallacy of an unwarranted adoption of an expanded semantic range. Just because a word can mean something in some other context does not mean it does in the particular context of Genesis 1. Other Bible scholars point out that the Hebrew word for "day" which is yôm, when modified by a cardinal number (for example, one, two, three) or an ordinal number (for example, first, second, third), as used 359 times in the Old Testament outside of Genesis 1, always means a literal day of about 24 hours, or the light portion of the day-night cycle. This is true in Old Testament narrative, legal writings, prophecy, wisdom literature, and even poetry. So, there must be extraordinary reasons to justify an extraordinary exception; if Genesis 1 is indeed an exception what is the reason other than to conform it to the unproven and unprovable claims of materialistic science that has us humans at the end of a multi-billion-year process? That is just as much a non-theistic faith statement as our supernatural faith in a Creator. When God performed by an act of His will the miracles described in the New Testament, His results were instant whether He was changing water into wine, raising the son of the widow of Naim or any of the others.
For context, the Genesis account of creation in six days provides a cardinal or ordinal number after each yôm. Not only that, after each day it adds the phrase "and there was evening and there was morning." Chapter 1, verse 5 states: "God called the light Day and the darkness Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day," while chapter 1, verse 8 says: "And God called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day." That formula is repeated for each of days three (verse 13), four (verse 19), five (verse 23), and six (verse 31).
In context, it looks like the Author of Scripture willed His human writer to tell what kind of day He wanted to reveal to us. Church Fathers and Doctors such as Augustine and Aquinas may have had slightly different opinions about the meaning of "six days," but they all agreed that it was instant according to His Will, and not something dragged out over untold ages. I'll return to Father's lecture after a necessary digression to explain about the "scientific method" of interpreting the Bible and what other Catholics of note have said about the impact of evolution.
Origination of the "scientific method" of interpreting the Bible is credited to German Protestant Rudolf Bultmann, born in 1884. He became a university professor in 1921, when evolution and non-theistic philosophy were already the rule in German universities. In a lecture delivered January 27, 1988, at St. Peter's Church in New York by Cardinal Ratzinger, then-Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, explained how Bultmann used the assumption that evolution was a naturalistic fact to "demystify" the Bible. The title of then-Cardinal Ratzinger's lecture was "Biblical Interpretation in Crisis: On the Question of the Foundations and Approaches of Exegesis Today."
In the first place, one can note that in the history-of-religions school, the model of evolution was applied to the analysis of biblical texts. This was an effort to bring the methods and models of the natural sciences to bear on the study of history. Bultmann laid hold of this notion in a more general way and thus attributed to the so-called scientific worldview a kind of dogmatic character. Thus, for example, for him the non-historicity of the miracle stories [in the Bible] was no question whatever anymore. The only thing one needed to do yet was to explain how these miracle stories came about. On one hand the introduction of the scientific worldview was indeterminate and not well thought out. On the other hand, it offered an absolute rule for distinguishing between what could have been and what had to be explained only by development. To this latter category belonged everything which is not met with in common daily experience. There could only have been what now is. For everything else, therefore, historical processes are invented, whose reconstruction became the particular challenge of exegesis. . . . To that extent there lies in modern exegesis a reduction of history into philosophy, a revision of history by means of philosophy.
In a May 1989 address to the Presidents of the European Doctrinal Commissions, speaking then as Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Cardinal Ratzinger's talk was on the "Difficulties Confronting the Faith in Europe Today." He traced through the litany of issues pertaining to sexual morality and the Church's sacramental order and said they are linked together by the same false vision of humanity. He went on to say that:
We can give a proper answer to the conflict in detail only if we keep all of the relationships in view. It is their disappearance which has robbed the Faith of its reasonableness. In this context, I would like to list three areas within the worldview of the Faith which have witnessed a certain kind of reduction in the last centuries, a reduction which has been gradually preparing the way for another "paradigm".
In the first place, we have to point out the almost complete disappearance of the doctrine on creation from theology. [Emphasis added.] As typical instances, we may cite two compendia of modern theology in which the doctrine on creation is eliminated as part of the content of the faith and is replaced by vague considerations from existential philosophy, [he then named two published in Europe]. In a time when we are experiencing the agonizing of creation against man's work and when the question of the limits and standards of creation upon our activity has become the central problem of our ethical responsibility, this fact must appear quite strange. Notwithstanding all this, it remains always a disagreeable fact that 'nature' should be viewed as a moral issue. . . . That nature has a mathematically intelligibility is to state the obvious, the assertion that it also contains in itself a moral intelligibility, however is rejected as a metaphysical fantasy. The demise of metaphysics goes hand in hand with the displacement of the teaching on creation.
The "another paradigm" of which he spoke was ushered in by the methods of Bultmann he had criticized the year before in New York. It would be wrong to think that a German Protestant was the only scholar who had latched on to Darwin's theory published in 1859 and held it as a matter of faith to which the Bible's text had to be reinterpreted. In 1907, Pope St. Pius X wrote the encyclical "On the Doctrine of the Modernists" to address that heresy. Note how he connected belief in evolution with Modernism which he described as "the synthesis of all heresies."
First of all [the Modernists] lay down the general principle that in a living religion everything is subject to change, and must in fact be changed. In this way they pass to what is practically their principal doctrine, namely, evolution. To the laws of evolution everything is subject.
Returning to the analysis of Father's lecture, Father's belief in the Day-Age Theory enabled him to then explain what he had called "the unfolding of creation" as the billion-year evolutionary process that materialists promote. The summary of the lecture continued:
Turning our attention to evolution, Fr. ******** simplified the evolutionary process into big bang, formless matter, primordial slime, simple animals, complex animals, and then finally Man. The key points of evolution are mutation, chaos, chance, natural selection, and selection of the fittest. Each of these points is essential to the evolutionary process.
Father then went on to explain how evolution, which he said involves "mutation, chaos, chance, natural selection and selection of the fittest," was actually guided and controlled by God to turn out an amazingly ordered design. In other words, evolution was a directed undirected process!
But as Fr. ******** pointed out, evolution requires a certain amount of specificity for it to work. The planets have to be just right so that each spins around the sun. The earth has to be tilted on its axis perfectly, otherwise it would be too hot or too cold to support life. There has to be the right amount of oxygen and plants and animals, or Man would not survive. Nature has to be precise or it would not amount to life as we know it. It has to be ordered and directed by God.
In other words, some matter and energy that He made out of nothing and used to initiate the "big bang" chaos has by random chance collisions, mutations, natural selection, and selection of the fittest turned out so well because for billions of years God tinkered with and corrected the results so that they only appear to the materialists as an infinitely lucky series of random chances which then through "natural selection," produced an incredibly ordered design. World-famous "New Atheist" Richard Dawkins is representative of the evolutionists who admit the universe looks designed but it just happened that way by pure chance. In fact, he wrote a best-selling book to "prove" it. In his The Blind Watchmaker: Why the Evidence of Evolution Reveals a Universe, he explained: "Biology is the study of complicated things that give the appearance of having been designed for a purpose."
Father's combination of the evolutionary process facilitated by God's oversight and patient tinkering for billions of years to arrive at an amazing outcome is ridiculed by the materialists that educate the children. The materialists would call his explanation the "god-of-the-gaps." The argument against the god-of-the-gaps is that it is invalid to introduce God as an explanation for a scientific phenomenon that science cannot currently explain by naturalistic causes. If they knew that "God did it," they wouldn't be materialists.
There is no question that the priest who gave that lecture believes in God and all that the Catholic Church authoritatively teaches (at least to the degree that he knows what that authoritative teaching is.) But the point is that explanations such as his are not "scientific," for no scientist would hold his theory, and they are not biblical, because they discount the truth of the inerrancy of Scripture. In short, what is very commonly being taught, and believed, by most Catholics is not anything the Church has ever held to be true. In his book, Aquinas and Evolution, Dominican priest Michael Chaberek explained why priests and lay intellectuals fall into this error. He wrote that theologians and philosophers don't know natural science well enough to be able to distinguish scientific facts from the materialistic interpretations and dread being called "anti-scientific." He asserted that because their exaggerated esteem or even fear of the "scientific community" makes them unable to question the so-called "scientific consensus" they have adopted the naturalistic paradigm.
The naturalistic paradigm is what Cardinal Ratzinger meant in his 1989 address to the Presidents of the European Doctrinal Commissions when he said, "in the last centuries, a reduction which has been gradually preparing the way for another 'paradigm'." In his lecture, while deflecting from a literal reading of Genesis to a god-of-the-gaps evolutionary reading of Genesis, Father claimed to be able to pick out truths hidden in the text:
What truths then are conveyed by the book of Genesis? First and foremost, the truth expressed by the creation story is the truth that Man is created from nothing by an all-powerful and loving God and that we are created in His image. This simple yet profound truth leads to other deeper and more profound insights. Fr ******** pointed out six basic truths of Genesis: 1) the dignity of the human person 2) life is sacred from conception to natural death 3) marriage is sacred 4) a child has a right to a mom and dad and to be raised into a family 5) all people have a right to basic things that will help improve themselves 6) that we care for the suffering and dying.
While those six are certainly things in which we believe, other Catholics might not see them all in Genesis 1. But without quibbling with Father's list, the main problem is that his audience was expected to accept, on his authority, "truths" that were gleaned from a biblical narrative in which the ordinary meaning of the words in the text are not actually true. If the popular understanding of evolution is true as the scientific consensus and the education system teaches, the Genesis account is what? A myth? A metaphor? An allegory? What authoritative teaching of the Church held Genesis to be such?
By overlaying God's supernatural role on the naturalist consensus of evolution some Catholics can arrive at what is, for them, both scientific and religious truth. But is it actually true? Defenders of the literal truth of the Bible agree with the New Atheists on one thing: Truth claims need to be taken seriously — which means they must be evaluated as true or false, not merely interpreted as metaphors and symbols. Catholic evolutionists are squeezed between these two opposing adherents of the "put up or shut up" school of interpretation. Catholic evolutionists think both extremes are simplistic; "it's complicated," they say. The New Atheists have shrugged off this dodge, accusing the Catholic apologists of creating a pseudo-intellectual smokescreen. And the exit in droves from the Church by Catholic youths indicates that the New Atheists are winning the debate.
Was it always "mainstream" within Catholic intellectual circles to interpret our origins as an eons-long progressive creation micromanaged by God? When naturalism, fueled by the appearance of Darwin's books, Origin of Species and The Decent of Man got into high gear toward the end of the nineteenth century, it was strongly refuted by the Church's Magisterium. In 1884, Pope Leo XIII wrote the encyclical Humanum Genus (On Freemasonry and Naturalism), in which he explained how Naturalists and Freemasons would use the schools to integrate evolution into philosophy to the detriment of morality and culture. That the schools have been and continue to be used for that purpose and with that result is a key thesis of this article.
Jesuits George Tyrrell (1861–1909) and Alfred Loisy (1857–1940) were among the early Catholic scholars who, like Bultmann, subjected Scripture to the "science" of naturalism. Both Tyrrell and Loisy ran afoul of the Vatican before leaving the priesthood and the Church. In more recent times, some Catholics who combine the theory of evolution with God intervening when He wishes, cling to their belief by asserting that they are in harmony with Thomas Aquinas. They call themselves Thomistic evolutionists. In the aforementioned book by Fr. Michael Chaberek, Aquinas and Evolution, he begins by asking a question about the cause of the alternative "paradigm." He had earlier pointed out that neither the teaching of Aquinas nor the theory of evolution had changed since Darwin articulated it:
As we noted, it is not the understanding of Aquinas or evolution that has changed over the last century or so. It is rather the change in paradigms — from roughly speaking 'Biblical' or 'creationist' to 'naturalistic' or 'evolutionary'. This change of paradigms explains why a great number of today's Thomists greatly differ from those of a century ago. In our opinion, the 'evolutionary' as opposed to the 'Biblical' is not the proper context in which the problem of origins should be addressed. For this reason, we believe that not today's, but the previous Thomists were closer to the truth regarding both — the interpretation of Aquinas's metaphysics and the assessment of the evolutionary theory of origins. . . . In what follows we will show that the teachings of Thomas Aquinas — and indeed any sound philosophy . . . are not just incompatible with the Darwinian theory but exclude it in principle. By showing this, we want to achieve another objective, namely, to help contemporary Thomists to realize some of the difficulties, inaccuracies, or even flat-out errors in their interpretation of Aquinas when it comes to the origin of species and man.
The Bible, as the Church teaches, is inerrant. But when Genesis is interpreted to conform to the faux science of evolution theory, section 282 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church is not being taken seriously and implemented. School children want to know where we come from and where are we going, so the explanation from parents and Catholic educators has to be more than the dumbed-down intellectual level found in CCD programs. Telling them God actually guided the billion-year random process they learned in science class is not working, either. The vacuum created by the failure to teach reason-based Catholic creationism has been filled by the secular Humanists with their "creation myth" of cosmic and biological evolution that renders God unnecessary. And that is why so many are leaving the Catholic Church today.
Recall that a zombie is something dead that is still walking around. The popular teaching of cosmic and biological evolution that kids get in school and from the popular culture is filled with so many scientifically dead and implausible "proofs" of "evolution" that it has provoked many books to be written about those "zombies." To the extent that Catholic children are taught to believe in these "zombies," we must bury them with the modern natural science that will fasten their faith to their soul.
Teaching our children modern natural science, along with our creation doctrines based on reading Genesis as the historical narrative, would be more effective in saving their faith than trying to "baptize" the materialistic evolution creation myth with the assertion that it is true but "God did it." When we teach modern natural science, we will simultaneously bury the scientific zombies that our kids believe in.
The difference between what is taught in school as a fact and that which is only speculation argued over by academic scientists was discussed by Dr. Stephen Meyer in his 2013 New York Times best-seller, Darwin's Doubt: The Explosion of Animal Life and the Case for Intelligent Design. Meyer explored every theory of biological evolution by an extensive review of the books and papers published by evolutionary biologists. Meyer quotes them and shows why their theories can't explain the source of the information contained in living things. New discoveries by experimental scientists, not only in genetics but in other areas as well, have brought into question the evolutionary dogma. There is enormous disparity between popular representations of the status of the theory and its actual status as indicated in peer-reviewed technical journals.
The reason why zombie-filled cosmic and biological evolution instruction is aggressively pressed on school children is because they are the foundational dogmas of the non-theistic religion that dominates our post-Christian culture: secular Humanism. The formal founding of that religion was in 1933 with the publication of the Humanist Manifesto that was signed by many educational leaders. The Humanists described themselves as a new religion, that is, a religious movement meant to transcend and replace deity-based religions:
While this age does owe a vast debt to the traditional religions, it is none the less obvious that any religion that can hope to be a synthesizing and dynamic force for today must be shaped for the needs of this age. To establish such a religion is a major necessity of the present. It is a responsibility which rests upon this generation. We therefore affirm the following:
First: Religious humanists regard the universe as self-existing and not created.
Second: Humanism believes that man is a part of nature and that he has emerged as the result of a continuous process.
Third: Holding an organic view of life, humanists find that the traditional dualism of mind and body must be rejected.
In other words, the universe, including all of the matter and energy always existed, life "emerged" on its own, humans then evolved, and the mind is material just as the body is. No room here for spiritual souls. Those are just the first three of fourteen "affirmations of faith" in that creed-like document.
The evidence that children are leaving in droves because instruction at school in evolution creates a perceived conflict with religion has been "stacked and cataloged." Priests and religious educators can't just continue doing the same old thing that has failed for the last 50 years. Catholic apologetics needs to implement section 282 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. The creation doctrines that the spokesmen for the Church seem to have forgotten or misplaced must be taught again — and taught with reason based on the twenty-first-century natural science that refutes those bogus nineteenth-century theories. The Humanist worldview, and the confidence Humanists exude as they steamroll Christians, is based on two affirmations of their faith, evolutionary cosmology and biology, that they have taught the majority of Catholics to accept, at least implicitly.
We need to break free to save our children and our Christian culture because, if the non-believers comprised of Humanists, atheists, and "nones" become the majority in this country, the social and political consequences will be frightening. Catholic intellectuals can help save our children and save our nation's culture by using their time and talent for the task of burying the zombies.

Elizabeth Velez grew up among beams and scaffoldings. One of seven girls, as a little kid she would tag along with dad on all kinds of construction sites — the very first projects of the emporium that is now the Velez Organization, founded in 1972.
"If I stayed home, I'd have to clean up or take care of my younger sisters," said Velez, 48. "But I really enjoyed going because it was always to different places such as schools and hospitals, community places that impact so many lives."
Today, Velez is not only a leader in the New York City's construction industry, but is known to be a mentor to women and minorities.
Having completed close to a billion dollars' worth of construction, Velez says it was a proposal she wrote while she was still an undergrad at Hofstra University School of Business in the 80s, that launched her career.
The idea was to partner with Katherine S. Wylde, President & CEO of the Partnership for New York City, a nonprofit organization for the city's business leaders, established by David Rockefeller in 1979.
"It was a new concept program to turn neighborhood builders/contractors into big developers," she told Fox News Latino. "My proposal was picked, my father's company was chosen for the pilot," she recalled. "I never looked back."
Velez was barely 20 years old.
She said this experience as a young, inexperienced entrepreneur made her value mentorship above all else and led her to become a dedicated mentor to others.
"I saw at a tender age the need for people to look out for one another. My dad instilled in me the mindset to always bring others along," Velez said.
She also encourages women to see construction as a pathway for a career.
"I'm such a proponent of the field. It's actually perfect for…

A group assessing China's role in stealing trade secrets from American companies wants the U.S. government to consider a controversial method for protecting those firms from Chinese hackers: Let them hack back.
"Without damaging the intruder's own network, companies that experience cyber theft ought to be able to retrieve their electronic files or prevent the exploitation of their stolen information," said the report released Wednesday by the Commission on the Theft of American Intellectual Property, a private task force that included former U.S. Ambassador to China Jon Huntsman and former Director of National Intelligence Dennis Blair.
Computer hacking is illegal, even in self-defense. But the report's authors said if counterattacks against hackers became legal, "There are many techniques that companies could employ that would cause severe damage to the capability of those conducting [intellectual property] theft."
"These attacks would raise the cost to IP thieves of their actions, potentially deterring them from undertaking theses activities in the first place," the report said. "Only when the danger of hacking into a company's network and exfiltrating trade secrets exceeds the rewards will such theft be reduced from a threat to a nuisance."
The "hack back" proposal shows how the escalating threat of cyber-espionage is forcing U.S. policymakers to consider more aggressive solutions.
Today's hackers often bypass traditional security methods such as firewalls and anti-virus software, experts say. In response, some cybersecurity companies now specialize in what is called "active defense," offering a wide range of new products. One such service tricks hackers into stealing bogus files from victims' computers.
But some experts suggest companies should go further, arguing that if they get hacked, they should at least be allowed to break into the hacker's computer and retrieve their stolen files.
Such a move is likely illegal under under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and the Justice Department's cybercrime manual states that a hacked company "should not take any offensive measures on its own, such as 'hacking back' into the attacker's computer -- even if such measures could in theory be characterized as 'defensive.'"
The manual notes that "hacking back" could damage the computer system of innocent bystanders, since hackers often route their attacks through the compromised computers of unwitting third parties.
The report notes the commission "is not ready to endorse" hacking back because of this potential for collateral damage or misuse, adding that "further work and research are necessary before moving ahead."
Still, James Lewis, a senior fellow with the Center for Strategic and International Studies, called the idea "truly stupid."
"The people who think this probably thought it was a good idea to invade Iraq," Lewis told The Huffington Post.
He said allowing companies to retaliate against hackers could undercut American cybersecurity initiatives around the world, violate international laws and "create the risk that some idiot in a company will make a mistake and cause collateral damage that gets us into a war with China."
But Stewart Baker, a former assistant secretary at the Department of Homeland Security, argued that preventing hacking victims from counter-hacking effectively grants immunity to attackers.
In a blog post last fall, Baker said that victims could, for example, "poison" the tools that hackers use to exploit computer networks -- known as Remote Access Tools, or RATs -- to identify the attackers and locate other unwitting victims.
"It's only a matter of time before counter hacks become possible," Baker wrote. "The real question is whether they'll ever become legal."

The 2019 Playoffs got underway on Saturday afternoon, with your third-seed Philadelphia 76ers facing off with the six-seed Brooklyn Nets. With news dropping literally seven minutes before the game that Joel Embiid would be active, hopes were high that the Sixers would be opening the playoffs up with a 1-0 lead.
That wasn't the case, as the Brooklyn Nets got hot early, taking a 31-22 lead into the second quarter, and handed Philadelphia the 111-102 loss to grab a 1-0 lead in the series.
With D'Angelo Russell struggling with his shot the entire first half, and Jarrett Allen mired in foul trouble since the first minute of the game, everything was set up for the Sixers to run away with this game. But Caris LeVert caught fire, finishing the game with 23 points, and Ed Davis proved to be the more valuable of Brooklyn's bigs. LeVert looking like his pre-injury self was huge in this one, and it could prove to be an issue moving forward in the series as the Sixers will need to find a way to deal with all the backcourt options Brooklyn has. You can't expect Russell to have a poor first half in every game.
For Philly, there were some...missteps. Joel Embiid got to the free throw line with ease early on,, but then decided he was just going to shoot 3s for a little bit in the first half. JJ Redick pulled a vanishing act. Tobias and Ben were inconsistent. Brett Brown decided to play Jonathon Simmons for 11 minutes, which is probably not the thing you should do if you want to win a playoff game; Simmons ended up as a minus-16 for the game. Even Jimmy Butler, who was hot early on, went through stretches late in the game where he seemed to disappear as well. Overall, though, Butler gave the team a Herculean effort, scoring 36 points to keep the Sixers from being blown out of the game.
JJ Redick and Ben Simmons tied with a team worst plus/minus of minus-21, and Redick fouled out in the fourth after scoring just five points. Remember all the talk about Playoff Redick and how much of a liability he was? Game 1 didn't change anyone's mind on that issue.
The closest things got came early in the third, as the Sixers got the deficit down to just two points. It looked like a turning point in the game, but D'Angelo Russell finally figured things out in that third quarter, and the Nets kept plugging away, halting any momentum the Sixers had.
So, What Next?
These teams face each other again on Monday night at the Wells Fargo Center in what's probably a must-win game for Philly. They'll need to come up with an answer defensively for the Nets backcourt (maybe one that starts with a "Zhaire" and ends with a "Smith," hmm?), and will need to hope that Joel Embiid is able to score from the floor and not just from the line. Presumably, Embiid will be healthier on Monday, so that should be at least one thing that goes in Philly's favor.
But the Nets may have found some things. Jarrett Allen playing just 10 minutes and letting Ed Davis be the team's primary center worked well; I'd expect to see Kenny Atkinson keep that going on Monday. The weird, ultra-small Nets lineup with Jared Dudley at the five didn't work quite as well, but it showed some versatility, and the Sixers might need to go away from using Boban as the backup five, even if his numbers from this game (13 points in 15 minutes and a plus-3) were fine.
The Sixers are still the favorites in this series. They still have the best players in this series. But that just wasn't enough in Game 1.
(By the way, because I know y'all are going to bring this up in the comments: Yes, Amir Johnson got caught texting during the game and Joel got caught looking at Amir's phone. ESPN caught Amir heading to the locker room, but then later they showed the bench and he was back there. This is probably going to be a big conversation all over social media and the talking head shows for the next couple of days, so...yeah, that happened.)

While Rogers' family were living in Rosedale at the time (near Bayview and Rosedale Road), Edward Sr. had moved into Pickering College on Bayview Avenue in Newmarket. The Rogers family is credited with founding Newmarket in the early 19th century, and building the main building, "Rogers House", at the college's Bayview St. location.

Language Learning
www.hovdenlearning.com is now live!
Learning a language is a lifelong experience. It involves grammar and vocabulary, of course, but culture is also incredibly important. I find that learning the why behind sayings, expressions, and grammar helps to bring a language to life. It allows you to better understand what people are saying, but also how to better express yourself.
I started my language learning journey as a child. I learned a few words and phrases from my grandparents, and then attending the Concordia Language Villages to learn Norwegian. Since 2002, I have been teaching children and adults, individuals and groups, in person and online. I love sharing what I have learned and learning about my students: where they come from, what their motivations are, and what they want to achieve.
If you are interested in learning Norwegian, please send me a message at email@example.com.

The first N64 game to be added to the Nintendo Switch Online expansion post-launch will be the original Paper Mario.
One of the key selling points of the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack is the addition of Nintendo 64 games, something Switch owners have been demanding for years.
The current selection is rather small though, consisting of only nine games, but Nintendo has been quick to promise even more in the future. If you were worried that the wait for extra games would be long, don't be because the first of these post-launch games, Paper Mario, is coming next weekend on December 10.
Its addition isn't surprising considering it was one of the first games Nintendo said would be added to the service after launch, but it's bound to please nostalgic fans who grew up playing it back in 2001.
The first entry in the Paper Mario series and a spiritual successor to Super Mario RPG for the SNES, the game is a classic turn-based role-player that sees Mario embark on a mission to find the missing Star Spirits so they can help him rescue Princess Peach from Bowser.
The series is notable for deviating from the traditional role-playing formula with recent games, such as Paper Mario: Color Splash and Paper Mario: The Origami King, which have put a much greater focus on the use of paper, which was simply a visual aesthetic in the first game.
Many fans have made it clear they want to see the series return to its role-playing game roots but, for the time being, this re-release is the closest they're going to get

There are still six more games confirmed to be coming to the Switch's N64 library (not counting the two Custom Robo games that will only be available in Japan), although dataminers believe there are at least 38 games in total planned for the service, including the first Super Smash Bros. game and all three Mario Party titles.
The expansion pack remains something of a touchy topic with fans, however. Aside from it being twice as expensive as the standard online service, there have been complaints that the N64 games run poorly, with a wide range of issues including input lag and choppy frame rates.
