"Andrea Williams, a campaigner from Christian Concern for Our Nation told the Press Association: "It's the role of the church to show that marriage is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman. The church should set the standard that God has given for marriage and not reflect the direction in which society is going."
"When the Civil Partnership Act was passed the Government stated quite clearly that this was not marriage but a civil partnership."
"In this we see two men trying to stretch what people said the law was intended to mean."
So, how can they prove this entity they call "God" has set the standard for marriage? Whom did he speak to and where is the evidence? Does anybody really believe let alone imagine that some unproven deity can actually communicate directly to another person? Its insanity gone awry! Delusional at best! Until someone comes back from the grave to say it is othewise, then I for one will remain a sceptic as well as a nonbeliever. Wasted energy spending an entire life worrying about what may or may not come after, assuming anything does.
did she complain when Charles and Camilla's partnership was blessed?
Congratulations to David and Peter for standing up for their love and showing the church up for what it truly is, a foundation of two faced biggots. Please we all know the churches are full of gay people working in them who have had to hide and deny their true identities due to archaic laws and persecution from those who call them selves 'christians'. Does anybody really believe anymore in a God, every religion claims to be the right one, yet they have all done nothing but cause death and uprest trying to prove it, still going on today. These people are also human like us, why should they have to hide their feelings, life is too short. Go back to your bells and smells and Godbothering, it won't deter us or put us back!
once and for all religions do not want us to be gay .
well good we do not want religions either .
god does not exist . all this so called morals and traditions are MAN MADE .enough lies . religions have no rights to control our lives .they are lie and thus no moral stand . -
What a ridiculous fuss about the two vicars celebrating their union in church! It is truly astonishing given all the huge threats to world peace, the world economy and indeed the very survival of the world itself, that some Christians spend so much time conspiring in hatred against a simple act of love. Congratulations to the happy couple – if the bigots in our society wish to air their irational prejudices they should do so in the privacy of their own homes and not inflict their tragic hypocracies on the rest of us. Now that naked rascism and sexism is now publically unnacceptable, homophobia has become the last bastion of the scoundrel. 50 years ago such people would be castigating mixed marriages or the idea of black or female members of the golf club, 100 years ago they'd have been fighting votes for women and 200 years ago they would be campaigning against the abolition of slavery. For goodness sake, join the 21st Century, put hate to one
side and love thy neighbour, whether they be straight or gay – then you will be a true christian. -
What a negative way to spend your entire life preaching discrimination, hatred, bigotry and hypocrisy against an entire group of people. I'm convinced that the overhwheling majority of these bible punchers are disturbed, damaged, demented, insane, psychotic sick people with nothing else better to do than obsess about gay relationships, gay sex, gay pride, gay adoption, gay equality, you name it. I suspect many of them have a lot unresolved sexual issues of their own to be spending so much time meddling in ours. Prurient interest perhaps or are they just plain jealous of us?

I was such a dissatisfied girl as far as soaps are concerned, trying out all soaps available under the sun...Trust me, I havent left any thing untried...Yes even the Khadi gram udyog soaps :). All that search stopped when I tried margo. This was 2 years back...And now I cant dream of a day when I dont smell the neem scent.
The only thing that should ever deter anyone from buying this soap is that it smells not too good and probarbly is bitter. But other than that, Its the best thing for your skin. Much better than most expensive soap, the sheer simplicity of ths soap is lovable. Acne....You forget them once you use margo.
Most of the skin problems arise from the harmful chemicals that soap manufacturers add to make the soap smell flowery or sandal etc. And the herbal soaps are not actually completely herbal. They contain perfumes and most of them just make it smell herbal. Margo is one soap, that to my satisfaction smelt authentically natural. It oozes of neem, literally.
Probably this sounds like an ad for the soap. But surely there are lot of pros to this soap. 1. Body odor vanishes considerably after the usage of this soap. 2. The smell really feels cleaning....You feel pure after the bath. 3. Acne vanish. I mean it. 4. Absolutely anyone can use it. It is very mild. Except ofcourse you are the few delicate darlings whose skin reacts to every other thing 5. Very high quality of our reviewers recommend us for the price we pay of our reviewers recommend us 6. Has been recommended by derm docs all over.
Best thing to use after you come home of our reviewers recommend us after a long day....and from pollution. If your skin feels dry after using it...just dab a little creme...and its solved.
Just that you need to keep a stock when it comes tot he market... Not available in all small shops nearby ( atleast where I stay :) )

Could Rodriguez Stay a Yankee? Only for Less Money
Alex Rodriguez has not eliminated the Yankees from consideration, and his agent, Scott Boras, said Saturday that he was still willing to meet with the team.
November 04, 2007, SundayTiming of Boras's Bluff May Prove Costly
Scott Boras was likely calling the Yankees' bluff in their stated position that they would not seek to sign Alex Rodriguez if he opted out. If that is the case, in this poker game Boras could lose.
November 04, 2007, SundayTalking Point for Rodriguez? $350 Million
That was the minimum bid the Yankees would have apparently had to make to begin negotiations with Alex Rodriguez before he opted out of his contract.

The Mets, coming off an epic collapse, are one of a few organizations that have the financial resources to at least make a competitive offer to Alex Rodriguez.
October 30, 2007, TuesdayRodriguez's Departure Leaves Void, but Girardi Will Have Options
As the Yankees move forward by picking Joe Girardi as their next manager, the team has options to replace Alex Rodriguez, who has almost certainly played his final game in pinstripes.
October 30, 2007, TuesdayFirst Step for Yanks Is to Meet Rodriguez
The Yankees will offer Alex Rodriguez a raise from the $25.2 million average annual value of the contract he signed in 2000, probably for five years beyond his current contract.
October 28, 2007, SundayBoras Wants Yankees To Explain Their Plans
The search for a new manager is taking up most of the Yankees' time this week, with Joe Girardi meeting with team officials yesterday in Tampa, Fla., Don Mattingly on deck for today and Tony Peña set for tomorrow. Looming, though, is a high-stakes showdown between the richest team in baseball...
October 23, 2007, TuesdayRodriguez's Agent Votes for Free Agency

Here's What Our Customers Are Saying
fun, pretty, and cute!
He Stole My Heart Save the Date Magnets We ordered these Save the Dates in Black/White/Red, and at first I was a little hesitant because I couldn't see them in person- so we ordered the proof! For $7 it was a great idea, the proof looked adorable and we really were impressed. We ordered 175 with the card holders and envelopes as well. The card holders I am not thrilled with- I think we should have ordered plain ones, the hearts are a bit much. The magnet is adorable, and we have recieved so many compliments about it! Definitely order them!
Super Cute!

WRIGHTWOOD, Calif. (KGO) -- A sledding expedition went horribly wrong in the San Gabriel Mountains. The drama, on a frozen pond in Wrightwood in San Bernardino County, was caught on video.
It almost turned into a Christmas Day disaster when a man fell through the ice, setting off a chain reaction. One person after another tried to save him, only to fall in themselves.
"We saw this guy coming across the ice really fast, and it went from cheering to all of the sudden, just an unbelievable amount of panic and chaos," witness Mickey Herman said.
A crowd gathered on shore, frantically screaming for help. At one point, 12 people were in the water.
Everyone was eventually pulled to shore. No one was hurt

The Daily Capybara, And a Bit of Legend
March 6, 2014 By Thomas L. McDonald Leave a Comment
The capybara is my favorite animal, and not merely because they're the only red meat you can eat on days of Lenten fast. Well, that's the legend at least. Supposedly, when the missionaries encountered the capybara in South America, they weren't sure if it qualified as a mammal or a fish. It has webbed feet and can swim, you see, so we're supposed to believe that men who knew perfectly well that a duck was not a fish, were confused about whether or not a hamster the size of a mastiff was a … [Read More...]

A Middle English Poem About the Assumption
March 4, 2014 By Thomas L. McDonald Leave a Comment
As a footnote to my posts about the last days of Mary, here's a lovely little Middle English poem about the Assumption. It's a pretty easy read, but I translated it anyway to clarify a couple of obscure words. Crist sayde to hur: "Com, my swete, com, my flour, Com, my culver, myn owne boure, Com, my modyr, now wyth me: For hevyn qwene I make thee." Then the body sat up, and lowted to Crist, and sayde: "My swete sonne, with al my love I com wyth thee to thyn above; Wher thou art … [Read More...]

I think it got almost 3 million retweets. That's the only reason I even know about: it was all over Twitter. Yeah, that was totally a bought-and-paid-for ad by Samsung for the Galaxy Note 3.

When NBC Television was producing a broadcast of The Magic Flute for which Auden, together with Chester Kallman, had translated the libretto, he stormed into the producer's office demanding to be paid immediately, instead of on the date specified in his contract.

What Happened to the Virgin Mary After Pentecost? (Part 2)
March 3, 2014 By Thomas L. McDonald Leave a Comment
In Part One, I retold the major tradition associated with the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. This tradition is attributed to various sources depending upon where the writer first encountered it. The most widespread version was that told (twice) by Jacobus de Voragine in the Golden Legend. This lengthy chapter in the Legend shows various signs of elaboration that develop from long meditation and preaching on the subject. The Golden Legend was primarily a preaching aid, and Jacobus tends to … [Read More...]
What Happened to the Virgin Mary After Pentecost? (Part 1)
March 2, 2014 By Thomas L. McDonald 2 Comments
What do we really know about the life of Mary beyond what the Bible tells us? Scripture gives us only glimpses of the Blessed Mother before she vanishes from history, only to reappear in the Book of Revelation as the "woman clothed in the sun" (Revelation 12:1-6).

7 Quick Takes: Personal Edition
February 28, 2014 By Thomas L. McDonald 8 Comments
Regular readers know that I'm not really a confessional blogger. I don't talk about my personal life or use this is space as a kind of public diary. So, in the interest of slightly correcting that, I'm using Jen's 7 Quick Takes format to share 7 things about me, personally. --1-- During the period when I was lapsed, I took part in a pagan naming ritual for a friend's baby. It's not something I'd do today (nor, I think, would the friend), but we entered into the spirit of the event and … [Read More...]

Stopping a bullet: Rickey Wagoner told police in Dayton, Ohio, that he was repairing an electrical fault in his bus early yesterday morning when unknown attackers approached him and shot him three times. One bullet struck the 49-year-old's right leg and the other two hit him in chest, reports the Dayton Daily News. Sgt.

Medieval Book Shrines
February 26, 2014 By Thomas L. McDonald 1 Comment
Medieval Fragments has a terrific, well-illustrated post on book shrines: shrines designed to look like books. Called a cumdach, the book shrine was a kind of reliquary contains pages from books associated with saints, and occasionally first class relics: Usually quite small, they served as a portable vessel meant for the preservation of a sacred text that represented a direct connection or association to a saint. They were often decorated in metalwork or ivory carvings, with precious stones … [Read More...]

One strange new spectacle of the information age is the accelerating lifespan of fads. Things flash across the web, are seen by millions, and then vanish. The social media drawing game Draw Something was, for a brief time, the biggest game in the world. It was so huge that social gaming powerhouse Zynga paid $200 million for its creator, OMGPOP. While the ink was still wet on the contract, Draw Something crashed and burned, shedding its 10 million daily users and doing serious damage to … [Read More...]
Advocacy Group Claims the Vatican is Full of Winos
February 25, 2014 By Thomas L. McDonald 1 Comment
And I sure hope they're right. The Wine Institute, a group that promotes the California wine industry, has released the results of a study* saying the Vatican consumes more wine per-capita than any other country in the world. The average Vaticanian sucks down 74 liters of wine per person: double that of Italy and France. Most of this, obviously, is due to sacramental use, but the overall individual wine consumption is believed to be higher because the population is older, male, and … [Read More...]
Child's Heart Surgery Aided By 3D-Printed Model
February 24, 2014 By Thomas L. McDonald Leave a Comment
Kentucky heart surgeon Erle Austin knew that fixing 14-month-old Roland Lian Cung Bawi's heart would be a delicate process, and he wanted as much information as possible before going in. He went to the engineering school at University of Louisville help with a computer model of the boy's heart, and they were able to use a 3D printer to make a larger version of the heart to help the team better understand the challenge: "Once I had a model, I knew exactly what I needed to do and how I … [Read More...]

Boxes in Utah labeled 'TNT' turn out to be soap
January 30, 2014 @ 7:49 am
TOOELE, Utah (AP) - A bomb squad in Utah checking out two boxes labeled as explosives says the containers turned out to be full of homemade soap.
The discovery at a Tooele home about 6 p.m. Wednesday prompted officials to evacuate about 20 houses. The area was cleared at about 10 p.m.
Police say the homeowner was doing maintenance on the subfloor of his home when he found the boxes labeled "Explosives/TNT."
Tooele Community Services supervisor Bucky Whitehouse says the soap got wet and started to foam, which is a common phenomenon of aging and volatile dynamite.
The Unified Fire Authority Bomb Squad used X-ray to determine the packages weren't explosives. They later found the contents were labeled as soap.

Complaints over BBC Diamond Jubilee coverage reach 4,487
Related Articles
Published: 08 June 2012
A total of 4,487 people have now complained about the BBC's coverage of the Diamond Jubilee, the corporation revealed.
The complaints mainly focus on "inane" stunts and star interviews during the flotilla broadcast and presenter Fearne Cotton showing a sick bag adorned with the Queen's face during Monday's royal procession.
Clare Balding became the first presenter who worked on the coverage to criticise it. She said: "I think it was done with the best intentions but they were trying to be very adventurous on river pageant day and it misfired —for communications reasons with things not working, weather reasons, all sorts."
A BBC spokesman said: "Across all the hours of broadcasting we have received appreciations as well as complaints."

The Buckhorn Saloon & Museum
The Buckhorn Saloon & Museum Review
In 1881 the Buckhorn Saloon opened as a Texan watering hole, and Teddy Roosevelt and his Rough Riders are said to have been among its patrons, as were writer O. Henry and Mexican Revolution leader Francisco "Pancho" Villa. Its primary customers after it opened were hunters and trappers, eager for a cold brew and to trade furs and horns. Owner Albert Friedrich collected the horns, some which his father made into horn chairs. The saloon serves a full menu of mostly American fare (burgers, BBQ, catfish, chicken, and steak). In the museum portion, you can see an assortment of marine trophies, fishing lures, and mounted birds on guided tours through the property's many halls: Buckhorn Hall of Fins, the Buckhorn Hall of Feathers, and the Buckhorn Hall of Horns. Famous artifacts (and they number in the thousands) include one of Gene Autry's saddles. There's also a wax museum on-site with objects related to Texas's history, such as a re-creation of the Battle of the Alamo; and the Texas Ranger Museum, with exhibits that recount the stories of law enforcement in the Lone Star State from Stephen Austin forward.

Extras again: Marlins beat Mets 8-4 in 10 innings
Extras again: Marlins beat Mets 8-4 in 10 innings
NEW YORK — Half the innings, twice the fun.
As far as the Miami Marlins are concerned, the headline can be "Extra! Extra! Read all about it." A day after beating the New York Mets in 20 innings, they needed only 10.
Derek Dietrich hit a tying home run in the eighth and second baseman Daniel Murphy's 10th-inning error allowed Logan Morrison to score the go-ahead run in his first game in 11 months, boosting the Marlins to an 8-4 victory and a two-game sweep.
"I'd rather win in nine, but I guess anything less than 20 is good," Miami manager Mike Redmond said.

First of all, sorry about all the Blue Jays posts today. It just worked out that way. Don't think this is a trend. We know Canadian stories don't move the pageviews meter so plan on this being the last one for awhile. Anyway, Jose Bautista is such a little *****. You know how we know? He goes on Twitter and posts this stupid tweet about his haters. Like this guy doesn't have anything else to do. Homeboy is hitting .181 & making $14M this year. Weak.

Taqa, the Abu Dhabi National Energy Company , said yesterday that the initial public offering (IPO) of its Moroccan unit was almost seven times oversubscribed. Also yesterday, Indian media reported the company was adding to its energy portfolio in the subcontinent., according to The National. The IPO of its power subsidiary in Casablanca its first international listing was oversubscribed 6.69 times, Taqa said. The sale had been expected to raise around 1.5 billion Moroccan dirhams (Dh667 million). Shares representing 9.47 per cent of Jorf Lasfar Energy Company (JLEC), the wholly owned unit that supplies 38 per cent of the Morocco's electricity, were listed on the exchange yesterday. Nearly 5 per cent of the subsidiary had been already placed with local institutional investors. Taqa retains around 85 per cent of JLEC, which has been valued at more than 9 bn Moroccan dirhams . "The great demand for JLEC shares reflects the strength of Taqa's power business in Morocco , where we are the market leader and have ambitious plans for growth," said Carl Sheldon , the chief executive. "The kingdom's energy needs are expected to double in the next seven years and Taqa will continue to be a vital partner in meeting this demand." A US$1.6bn expansion of the Jorf Lasfar facility is nearing its final stages, and once complete will allow it to supply half of Morocco's power. According to the Indian financial news site, Live Mint, the utility investor is leading a consortium, which includes a Canadian pension fund and the private equity investor IDFC Alternatives, to buy two hydroelectric projects from India's JaypeeGroup for $1.5bn . Taqa would take a 51 per cent stake, according to the report. A Taqa spokesman declined to confirm talks for a deal in India . Although Jaiprakash PowerVentures, the subsidiary of Jaypee that operates the plants, turns a profit, Jaypee Group has been racing to pare down debt of more than 500 bn rupees (Dh29.73bn) by selling assets such as a cement plant in Gujarat . The two power plants in the prospective sale together have a capacity of 1,300 megawatts and are located in Himachal Pradesh , where Taqa already holds a majority stake in a 100MW hydro-electric plant. It also operates a 250MW coal-fired power plant in Tamil Nadu .; All Rights Reserved - Mubasher Info

VoIP researcher by day, PS3 tinkerer by night, Youness Alaoui (AKA KaKaRoTo) took a brief vacation in November from his ongoing work to jailbreak (again) Sony's gaming machine. Last fall, Alaoui made strides with firmware 3.73 and the latest update, 4.00. A recent blog post from the well-known hacker confirmed work is ongoing and a release is impossible to date.
"We have not been slacking off," said Alaoui, "we're a group of about 10 developers working together for the last 2 months, for sometimes 15 hours everyday in order to bring back homebrew support to the latest version of the PS3."
The homebrew aficionados' passion project hit an obstacle late last year when, according to Alaoui, fellow PS3 scene vet Mathieulh stymied progress on the jailbreak with outright lies:
Mathieulh kept tossing his usual 'riddles' which he thinks are 'very helpful for those who have a brain', and which pisses off anyone who actually does… so he told us that the solution to all our problems was to look in appldr of the 3.56 firmware.. and that it was something lv1 was sending appldr which made the 'hash check' verified or not… so we spent one month and a lot of sweat and after killing a few of our brain cells out of exhaustion, we finally concluded that it was all bullsh*t. After one month of reading assembly code and checking and double-checking our results, we finally were able to confirm that that hash algorithm was NOT in the 3.56 firmware like he told us (at all).
The pair's "Twitter fight" notwithstanding, Alaoui said his group had nailed the first part of the process – installing packages on the console. It's the next two steps which pose the bigger problem.
"The second part is to get the apps to run," he said. "That one still has major issues." Alaoui cryptically added that the final stretch of the project is "a surprise."
Prepare for disappointment, pirates: it's not back-up support. "This is and will stay a piracy-free solution for the PS3," Alaoui said.
Unsure when his team's work will see the light of day, the hacker made a simple request of overzealous PS3 owners anxious to bring homebrew to their up-to-date consoles: "Be patient and please stop asking me about an estimated release date!" (via KaKaRoTo's Blog)

The mighty Swoosh: Nike's unprecedented advance on the fashion arena
Not content with emblazoning its logo on the world's top athletes at next month's Olympics, Nike is using the event to roll out into uncharted fashion territory
Look closely at the athletes' kit when the Olympic Games open in Beijing next month, and one brand in particular may seem keener than others to make something of a statement. The Games, of course, are the ultimate marketing opportunity for any sportswear brand – but Nike has gone into dizzying overdrive to make its mark. Take the new Air Force 1 training shoe, cunningly inspired by the "bird's nest" design of the Olympic stadium. Or the sole of the Air Max 90 sneaker, which along with the Windrunner jacket will be worn by any American, Kenyan or Ukrainian who goes up to collect a medal and has ingeniously been recreated in the colours of the Olympic rings. Representing Nike domination in Britain, look out for marathon maestro Paula Radcliffe, sprinter Simeon Williamson and heptathlete Kelly Sotherton draped in yet more new incarnations of the ubiquitous brand.
But is it new? Any sneaker fiend will know that the Air Force 1 basketball shoe – one of the most collectible sneakers ever, with box-fresh examples changing hands for thousands of dollars – was first designed by Bruce Kilgore just over 25 years ago and was one of the first styles to cross over from sport to street, worn by rappers from Snoop Dogg to Jay-Z. Similarly, the Air Max 90, part of a classic series of sneakers launched in 1987, is a clubber's staple designed by Tinker Hatfield, and little short of a god to legions of sneaker fanatics.
Now both models are making a return, in updated form. And Nike knows they will be fashion gold. The shoes, from an initial collection of eight designs, are part of a momentous marketing opportunity for Nike Inc, which turns 30 this year. Although the company won't discuss figures, the Olympics represent its biggest and most expensive promotional campaign ever. Nike is already the biggest sports brand in China, its largest territory outside of the US, but the launch of these products represents something of a profound commercial shift for the mega-brand: is Nike at last, openly cashing in on its old-school streetwear credentials?
Nike Sportswear is a newly formed division of the brand, with each item carefully selected from Nike's archives and each lauded by various street subcultures as much – if not more – for their style statement as their benchmark advances in product design. For a company long reluctant to admit that the bulk of its trainers and training clothes are worn more by brand-conscious fashion-followers than serious sports people, this is as close as Nike has come to acknowledging the debt that its success owes to styling.
"We do know that not everyone who wears Nike is an athlete or wearing it for sport and that's why this new collection is more style-led – it's sport remixed for the street, casual-wear seen through a sports lens," says Kris Aman, Nike's global general manager for the Olympics. "As sportswear has entered the fashion realm in the past 20 years, and as the line has blurred between sports stars and celebrities, a sports brand has more 'right' to play in the non-performance area now. But we have the sports heritage to back this up..."
"The word 'fashion' can make something seem very transient and trendy," adds Nike Sportswear's creative director, Richard Clarke, carefully. "We're a company that focuses on innovation – but innovation also allows for an expression of style. People connect Nike with fashion, but designing products solely for lifestyle doesn't encourage you to think about problems and solutions differently [as we do]: without the problem, you're just thinking, 'Does this look good?'"
Other major sports brands have built lucrative fashion businesses by reissuing archive models – more or less exact replicas which, because sports technology has advanced so far, would be useless to most hardcore athletes; Puma and Adidas, with its Originals line, being the most obvious.
Nike, in contrast, is taking its classics and overhauling. Inevitably, these models will retain all the style cachet of the originals but they now also employ the latest technology: the new take on the Air Max 90, for example, uses a high-tensile thread called Flywire that Nike claims reduces weight and improves stability, while the upper of the Air Force 1 uses injected TPU, a special polyurethane, to give not only additional support but also a strikingly graphic look.
Among its other designs being rebuilt are the Eugene track jacket and 1977 hoody and, getting trainerheads reaching for their wallets, new takes on the brand's Dunk – its basketball shoe first launched in 1985. These are the iconic products that, as Clarke has it, were "watershed moments... they were products that were the first of their kind that also become staples of somebody's wardrobe".
Whatever Nike's new division produces next, you can expect these products, like those making their debut in China, to find their way on to the feet and backs of pop stars, metropolitan creatives and teen posses loitering outside McDonald's. Maybe even a few athletes.
Nevertheless, Nike is reluctant to fully embrace its place in fashion. "We're still staying focused on what the athlete needs," maintains Clarke. "You just have to focus on being authentic and keeping it simple, and if other people decide they also need it... well, how someone re-appropriates athletic gear to suit their life is down to freedom of choice. Fashion may sell on status or colour or print, but people also identify with functionality and authenticity. And that's what we sell." n
