"Just Another Man"
He looks in the mirror every morning and night,
Does he see what I see, it would be nice if he might.
He sees a rude man as he stands there,
I see someone who needs someone to care.
He sees a mean man, because he has to be tough,
I see someone who deals with more than enough.
He sees how he tries not to cry and feels he has no heart,
I see someone who has to keep his feelings and work apart.
He sees a murderer because he shot someone last night,
I see someone who saved someone else from a fight.
He sees a failure because he did not arrive in time
I see someone who did his best and needs peace of mind.
He sees just another man as he enters the day,
I see a special man who does his best in every way.
For all the years, he has put on the uniform of blue,
He has never realized how much he protects me and you.
But, as he starts the day again, I just wish he could see,
What he really is and how much he means to you and me.

Because aggregate comprises approximately 95% of asphalt mixtures, it has a major effect on the performance of mixtures. The quality of filler and amount of filler greatly affect asphalt concrete performance. To insure satisfactory performance, procedures must be available that can be used to detect poor-quality mixtures and there must be techniques available for improving mixture properties.
The objective of this paper is to present data from various studies that show the effect of aggregate grading on performance of asphalt mixtures. Test methods to evaluate these mixture properties are discussed.
A well-graded, crushed aggregate should be used to provide the highest-quality asphalt concrete. Uncrushed aggregates such as natural sands and uncrushed gravels produce mixtures with lower stability and decreased durability, whereas a well-graded aggregate fits together more tightly during compaction, resulting in a lower required asphalt content and improved stability and durability.
The maximum aggregate size is important to control stability, skid resistance, and compactibility of the mixture. A larger maximum size aggregate produces a higher stability and usually requires less asphalt content. The larger size aggregate also provides for improved skid resistance. Compaction of thin layers is difficult when the maximum aggregate size is too small. The compacted lift thickness should be at least twice the maximum aggregate size.
The amount of mineral filler in a mixture greatly affects the overall mix quality. Since the filler tends to fill the voids in the mineral aggregates, an increase in filler results in a corresponding decrease in optimum asphalt content. Laboratory test results also indicate that a mixture design performed for an aggregate with higher filler content will result in a significantly higher stability than that for lower filler content. The type of filler used also affects the mixture properties.
The quality of the aggregate must be controlled to insure a quality asphalt concrete. Some properties that must be considered are maximum aggregate size, amount of crushed particles, and amount and quality of filler.

COLUMBIA — The green light illuminated with a loud buzz, and the parachuters lined up near the edge of the airplane door. With a quick hand signal and a parting yell, they jumped.
The U.S. Golden Knights Parachute Team performed in Columbia as part of the Salute to Veterans Airshow Saturday at Columbia Regional Airport. The team of 12 parachuters, members of the United States Army Parachute Team, jumped out of an Army plane from heights of up to 5,000 feet. It was the team's first performance in Columbia in 15 years.
Sgt. 1st Class Dustin Peregrin, the Gold Demonstration Team Captain, often hung out the edge of the airplane's doors to check the team's targets on the ground. He gave the final signal before letting the jumpers go. The jumpers exited the plane as casually as they would exit a car door.
Each jumper would free fall before opening a bright orange parachute and releasing thick red smoke from a canister on their ankle.
From the air, it wasn't possible to tell it was raining. The weather kept the other planes grounded, but the rain didn't keep the Golden Knights from finishing their act.
Supervising editor is Joe Guszkowski.

how are you adding twitter to themes and templates now. I have been looking at it but it looks like you have to include secret keys and other things. Is this stuff safe to upload with a template? How is it done with the new API?
Create the widget/plugin/script as you normally would (using the new API) – just set the keys as variables that the purchaser must fill in.
I would not distribute the theme with your personal keys! But it is safe (with read only permissions) to use them on the demo.
The only way I have been able to get it work on the html site is by turning all the pages into php files and using php to display things. This makes it a little harder to preview the pages because you have to have a server set up. Is there an easier way? So I will be uploading a template soon but they will all be php files because of the php used to display the twitter feed.
With PHP you can Fetch and manipulate the tweets in PHP then echo out a json string. In your HTML, using JS and aJax to decode and parse the json string into your HTML template.
I've never tried Twitters new API (1.1) without PHP. According to their developers library page it's possible. They link to these 3 libraries.
Thanks for the information.

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro600 of human DDR1 protein.
The discoidin domain receptors (DDRs) are receptor tyrosine kinases with a discoidin homology repeat in their extracellular domains, activated by binding to extracellular matrix collagens. So far, two mammalian DDRs have been identified: DDR1 and DDR2 (1). They are widely expressed in human tissues and may have roles in smooth muscle cell-mediated collagen remodeling (2). Research studies have implicated aberrant expression and signaling of DDRs in human diseases related to increased matrix degradation and remodeling, such as cardiovascular disease, liver fibrosis, and tumor invasion (1).

SPRINGFIELD — MGM Resorts International, which is proposing a casino in the South End, announced Thursday that it will be a sponsor of the Springfield Falcons hockey team this year and donate more than 1,000 tickets during the season.
MGM Springfield President Bill Hornbuckle announced the sponsorship, and said the tickets will be donated to Springfield organizations including nonprofit groups representing youth and families "that may not otherwise have opportunities to attend a Falcons game."
MGM has made other donations in recent months, including $50,000 recently donated to the South End Community Center and $15,000 to the Springfield Fourth of July fireworks.
"Great hockey has been a tradition in Springfield for more than 70 years and we are proud to be a part of the Falcons 2012-2013 season," Hornbuckle said in a prepared release. "Falcons hockey at the MassMutual Center is a great tradition in Springfield; one upon which together we hope to build as we highlight Springfield as a world-class leisure and entertainment destination."
MGM is among at least three companies proposing a casino in Springfield. Penn National Gaming has proposed a casino in the North End, and Ameristar Casinos is proposing a casino in East Springfield.

Kyle 5pts Sigh that they are sticking to the 4.2, but the transmission sounds amazing, 18mpg combined in a v10 engine?!
Kyle 5pts BMW uses halo lights tho witch is their own twist on LED, after audi started to put led strips in the headlights all of a sudden kia's and ford edge's are comming out of the woodwork with led lights everywhere. I actually respect BMW alot for the fact that they got creative and continue to use the halo's, its uniqe. But i do think audi started the whole LED thing in cars.
Adrian 5pts Nice to see that a certain Volvo can keep up with both in a straight line. :D And with only 510 HP too, so seeing as a Mustang needs an extra 150 HP to keep up (mind you that's ONLY in a straight line) I wouldn't be bragging too much...
mochi 5pts Great. My comment got deleted from yesterday just because I told everyone to go to netcarshow.com instead to see the pictures. But now that WOT's updated it, I'm fine… But I love the new R8. LIke the mpg increase too, that needed improvement, I guess.
British_Boy_007 5pts Well it does have over a hundred hp less! The GT500 is the slowest 660hp car in the history of cars.
Adrian 5pts Why is everyone commenting on how great the LED tubes on this look when BMW and even SAAB have been using them for over 5 years?
Adrian 5pts Saab has also been using LED tubes since the 2006 Model year on their 9-3s. LEDs are nothing new, and BMW has also been using them for quite a while.
Sk1lin3 5pts The new tubed LEDs look nice but did people forget that BMW have been doing that for the "Angel Eyes" on their cars since I think the E39 5 Series? Not hating or anything.
Kyle 5pts Only a matter of time till every other brand copies these led "tubes" like they did the first time. The car looks great though, they should drop the ollllld 4.2 tho. The audi R8 should stay N/A though imo. Perhaps a non turbo, high reving version of the 4.0 v8 tuned to about 430-445 hp?
Tysa 5pts To be fair BMW was the first to use the tube and with the angel eye... And Lexus I think their L shape are harder to used the tube light on the LF CH they did it ... I think the dot fits Lexus more than any other auto make as it makes the headlight looks unique when there are off ... Hyundai n Kia who always try to be in the middle of everything copying ppl from left to right even now Audi with the square leds.. God they so awful even the Lexus exstust tip on there areza is awful... I hate that company with a passion
camaro52391 5pts I like the light tubes alot better. the dotted leds on mercedes, lexus, and kia just look awful
IBx1 5pts Looks much better this way than with the widely spaced LED's. I like light bars much better anyday.
Logan 5pts Yea, Kia ruined the LED dot style lights when they put them on the sportage. Now Audi looks like they are using more the tube light look
Hawkwing 5pts The new front end is great, it's looks much cleaner and makes the car looks more athletic.
Merio90 5pts I like the new look. It looks the new A5/S5. It appears as if Audi is replacing those old looking led lights seen on previous models. They are being replaced by these new "light bulb"like leds. I wouldn't be surprised to see MB,BMW etc use a similar style on there lineup.

WiFi and who's connecting to it

Posted September 30, 2012 at 12:05AM
Hello. I'd be very grateful for some help please.
I have a Netgear WiFi router which was set up on my desktop PC which I'm not currently using. I am using a laptop and my brother is using his PC. I've just installed the trial version of "Who is on my WiFi" because I'm having a few niggles. e.g. my laptop won't connect eventhough I'm almost sitting on top of the WiFi box (not a problem I have elsewhere with the laptop so I'm assuming it's ok). Speed when connected has also deteriorated recently. Also today there was a message on my laptop about another computer using the same I.P. address - which I've never seen before.
A scan using "Who is on my WiFi" is showing three connections. I can identify my laptop and my brother's PC but I don't know what the third one is.
Would this be the Netgear box itself or do I have someone else using my service.
If the answer is that I do have someone else using my service how do I stop them?
Many thanks

The other device you are seeing is probably the Netgear Router.
Who's On My Wifi detects all hardware devices on the network including wireless routers.
You could always let the Who's On My Wifi software run for a few days and see if anything else appears.
If not, it's likely that you don't have an intruder.
As wiz-king mentioned, if you change the router password, this should also keep out any current intruders.

I get that "same IP" message too, and googled around, and found it can be something that can happen when your laptop has been in hibernation while on wifi and then later wakes up. For a brief minute the router thinks you're two separate computers.

URI Graduate School of Oceanography public lecture considers the future of Maine Atlantic salmon
Media Contact:
Narragansett, RI -- October 1, 2004 --
The returns of wild Atlantic salmon to Maine are at all-time lows. The situation became so critical that the salmon in eight Maine streams were listed as endangered.
Dr. Robert Stickney, Director, Texas Sea Grant, will give a public lecture on "Maine Atlantic salmon: Searching for a road to recovery" on Wednesday, October 13, at noon, in Corless Auditorium, URI Bay Campus, South Ferry Road, Narragansett. The lecture part of a URI Graduate School of Oceanography (GSO) Biology at Noon Seminar Series and is sponsored by Friends of Oceanography,
In 2001, the National Research Council (NRC) convened a committee to examine whether the fish in the eight streams represented genetically distinct populations and to develop recommendations as to what might be done to re-establish healthy salmon runs in Maine. Stickney's lecture examines the salmon situation in Maine, the history of the decline, factors that have been identified as contributing to the decline, and the rather unique approach to recovery that is being recommended by the NRC committee. The discussion runs from aquaculture to blueberries and hatcheries to acid rain. The issues described are highly charged and controversy abounds.
Dr. Robert Stickney is the Director of the Texas Sea Grant College Program and a Professor of Oceanography at Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas. He received a B.S. in zoology from the University of Nebraska, an M.A. in zoology from the University of Missouri, and a Ph.D. in oceanography from Florida State University.
He is a member of the American Fisheries Society and a charter member of the World Aquaculture Society and a fellow of the American Institute of Fisheries Research Biologists. In 2002 he received the Dean's Distinguished Service Award from the College of Geosciences at Texas A&M University and the World Aquaculture Society Exemplary Service Award in 2003. He has published more than 140 articles in peer-reviewed journals and serves as editor-in-chief of World Aquaculture Magazine.
The lecture is free and open to the public. For information call 874-6642.

A protected class is a group of people who share common characteristics and are protected from discrimination and harassment. Some protections have the backing of federal and/or state laws.
Most people belong to most of the various protected classes. For example, each person is a member of the protected class of "sex" by being male or female. The same can be said for race, color, and several other protected classes. However, many individuals do not meet the criteria for membership of the protected classes of disability or veteran status.
The following table indicates the level of protection in place for each of the protected classes:
Protected Class | Covered by Federal Law | Covered by State Law | Covered by NC State Policy |

[0002] in the western third of the United States, arid conditions create extreme fire danger during certain periods every year. Residential building have become more vulnerable in recent years due to the fact that many homes are left unattended for long periods of time because they are occupied as vacation homes or by families in which both parents work. Compounding this problem is the proliferication of homes in scenic forested or mountainous areas where the quality of life is superb, but the fire danger is high.
[0003] While some of these areas are served by rural fire protection districts, the response times of these entities are generally very long. Moreover, many mountain homes are simply without public fire protection of any kind. Home owners in these high risks areas face significantly higher insurance premiums than city homeowners, and some are not able to obtain fire coverage at any cost.
[0004] Several systems are known for protecting buildings from the risk of fire. Such systems are described in U.S. Pat. No. 4428434 to GELAUDE, U.S. Pat. No. 5165482 to SMAGAC et. al, U.S. Pat. No. 5263543 to NIGRO, U.S. Pat. No. 5692571 to JACKSON and U.S. Pat. No. 5732511 to SCOTT.
[0005] While these devices fulfill their objectives, they do not describe a fire protection system with a single large gun nozzle that is comparatively inexpensive to install and maintain and that is effective in protecting single rural properties and multiple homes on smaller city lots.
[0006] The present invention is therefore directed to a fire protection system that is inexpensive to install and maintain and that is simple yet effective in protecting a building from approaching fire.
[0007] The present invention employs, in accordance with the illustrated preferred embodiment, a plurality of radio frequency temperature sensors remotely located around a building to be protected, one or more sprinkler heads coupled to a water supply line and mounted on the roof of the building to provide sprinkler coverage of the building and/or a perimeter area surrounding the building, and control circuitry responsive to a radio frequency signal transmitted by one or more of the remotely located temperature sensors when a temperature exceeding a threshold temperature of the sensors is sensed thereby to initiate the flow of water to the one or more sprinkler heads for a predetermined period.

Bound modes analysis of symmetric dielectric loaded surface plasmon-polariton waveguides
Optics Express, Vol. 17, Issue 5, pp. 3610-3618 (2009)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1384 KB)
A symmetric dielectric loaded surface plasmon polariton waveguide is proposed and numerically analyzed. The characteristics of the symmetric and asymmetric bound modes, including the effective mode indices, propagation lengths, mode sizes and mode shapes at telecom wavelength 1.55μm are investigated in detail. The simulation results show that the sub-wavelength confinement (about 1.45μm) and a long propagation (about 820μm) can be realized. Although the mode sizes are a bit larger than that of the dielectric loaded surface plasmon polariton waveguide, an order longer propagation length can be achieved. The proposed symmetric dielectric loaded surface plasmon polariton waveguide provides a potential for low loss and high density photonic integration.

America's Boy : A Century of Colonialism in the Philippines by James Hamilton-Paterson
Ferdinand Marcos 1917- 1989 Filipino Politician
Marcos spent 15 years as a member of the Philippine legislature. In 1965 he was elected President. In 1972 Marcos imposed martial law, and became both the President and the Prime Minister. Opposition soon developed to Marcos' rule. In 1983, opposition leader Benigno Aquino was assassinated on his return to the Philippines. Marcos was blamed for the attack, and widespread civil unrest ensued. In November 1985 Marcos called for an election. The opposition rallied around Corazon Aquino, the widow of Benigno. Marcos declared himself the winner, despite an apparent victory by Mrs. Aquino. When word spread, civil disobedience followed, and the leaders of the Army announced that they were supporting Mrs. Aquino. Marcos was forced to flee to Hawaii, where he later died.

Throughout the years of going to movie theaters, I've experienced pretty much every kind of rude behavior a person can experience including witnessing a group of pre-teens urinating on the movie screen. But the not-so recent trend of moviegoers who absolutely need to be on their cell phones during a movie is especially annoying as their phone screens always distract me no matter how much they try to conceal their device. If a new program from Cinemark takes off, moviegoers may finally learn to keep their phones in their pockets or purses for the duration of the film.
Cinemark has announced a new program called CineMode which is an application that will keep track of a moviegoers cell phone usage during a film. When the application is launched, CineMode will dim the users' cell phone screen and ask them to set their phone to vibrate. If the user is able to keep their mitts off their phone for the duration of the film, they will be presented with a digital coupon that can be redeemed for a discount on a future movie at a Cinemark theater.
I'm already well aware texting in the movie theater will never go away as there are too many self-centered people in the world who absolutely need to be connected to their phones at all times, but I'm hoping the lure of a digital coupon for a future movie will be enough to keep their hands of their phones for at least an hour.

Spence - I did the CD last night, and fell asleep, not sure that is supposed to happen!!! I'm not convinced I'm the type who can relax to hypnosis, I'm too "twitchy" I fell asleep mainly because it was relaxing and it was past my bedtime, but I cant remember anything he said!!!
Anyway, my mantra starts again
Morning westie Hows scotts house coming along?
Morning each.
Hmmmmmm, not sure I could buy into anything by Paul McKenna.
I can provide my own homespun mantra's though.
'It's better to get off your arse and do a plod than, er , umm not to'
3,2,1 you're back in the room.
The rain';s stopped here but it feels a bit chilly. My day starts with a quick Haj to tesco.
Morning All
Great ditty XB
Wet and windy here too - not the nicest way to start Friday but cheered up by meeting Herbie the adorable blue staffie on the beach - he really is the friendliest most enthusiastic little dog ever - he always makes me smile
Other than that I stumbled into yet another c*ck up at work yesterday - feel a bit of an outcast since although the powers that be appreciate my finding all the problems so they can then solve them the people who c*cked up are sticking knives in my back.................
It's not like I can ignore these things either........... Oh well c'est la vie - life is not a popularity contest.......
Morning all
O dear, looks like I am in trouble again I dont remember on the instructions it saying 'dont let yourself in for anything' and must remember 'dont post when tired'
I guess I need to add sacrificial lamb to my sig now ... Baaaahhhhh Baaaahhhhh
Wet n orrible here today, just right for my LSR later
Podds: do we work in the same place? that sounds sooo familiar!
Its that time again, wheres my cup!
Always be on your guard Cheesy!!
prunes shudders
Podds your like the tax man, everyone hates them but you've got a job to do! (no need to thank me!!!)
Thanks Snaily
Guess what - just found another one
A kid has turned up in school today who left some months ago to be home educated and then decided to come back. He isn't on roll, has no timetable, isn't being registered (which is illegal).........but somebody somewhere (and I have a very good idea who......) has just decided he can join in today..........
Cheesy - I think many work places are like this.....................I always say mine is great when there isn't anyone around
Prunes, figs and dates are great.
Tesco shelves picked clean.
Tubs, after a few sorties to NZ, HL and I consider anything less than 12 hours to be a mere 'hop'.
I try to rationlise long flights by recalling that in my police career - and after - I spent hours and days sitting in cramped transit vans. The idea of having a warm, modestly comfortable seat where I can watch a film, eat or drink at will, isn't so tough.
However, If you are on meds or a bit off-colour it will seem like quite a task.
Podds, I have a few other bits of DHB kit too, all good stuff at a hard to beat price. I hope the shoes fit OK, it's unusual to see DHB's in my size, hence my prompt buy fest.
Quiet in here, dont tell me everyone is working
Nah. I've been running. 8 miles done. Progressive. Bloody dog was a pain in the arse cos there was shooting.
Nog = N + 1 wrote (see)
Maybe not altogether though.
Chores done, 1hr45mins of hill work (twice up the mighty Brill hill) done.
Telegraph crossword to do and a cracking HL dinner to come. I may mention walking round the pub for a glass or two. That's the rule I've set - no wine to be bought in, if we fancy a glass we can walk to the pub - we've not bothered in the past 3 weeks though
Wow, the juices are flowing today and no mistake.
A poem from our very own resident Poet Laureate aka XB.
A lovely mantra from our resident philosopher aka Nogs.
A spirited discussion about dried fruit (I'm deffo on the 'pro' team!).
A meaningful reflection about the virtue of recognising other people's c*ck ups before they hit the fan by our courageous White Knight aka Podds.
A touching example of human self-sacrifice by our new lamb ala Cheesie.
Together with cameo guest appearances by Westie, Meldy, DL, and Snaily.
Dog, we're a talented lot
Was hoping to cycle to hairdresser and later to shops but it was chucking it down so wimped out and took the car. The usual round of washing, cooking and sorting after being away for several weeks. Think it will be Sunday before I can get a chugette in...does it make sense to feel like your tongue is hanging out for a run? Sounds pretty weird, but you know what I mean!
Off to rehearsal now to prepare for installation of new chaplain tomorrow. Devoutly hope against hope there will not be a sermon
back from Scott's (again) living room solid wood floor now complete, rewired new light fittings,walls and ceiling now fully painted so for a change this weekend we are off to do trails again !!
This one :- St cuthberts way you can look it up here
we will have a pub night at Yetholm saturday and complete Sunday at Holy island and yes I am NOT running all the way just support with the odd jog thrown in so will see you all (I hope ) Monday

The aim of the workshop was to contribute to ELSNET's ongoing action to establish a road map for MT for the next decade. A road map comprises an analysis of the present situation, a vision of where we want to be in ten years from now, and a number of intermediate milestones that would help in setting intermediate goals and in measuring our progress towards our goals. The function of the road map is not to impose anything on anyone, but rather to provide a broadly supported definition of a context in which to position the MT community's efforts, which would allow us to identify common priorities for joint activities in e.g. research, resources and training.
Presentations were limited to 15 minutes, followed by 5 minutes for discussion. Please note that this was a workshop, not a mini-conference, and that participants were expected to play an active role: all participants were requested to help identifying the Big MT Challenges that lie ahead of us, and the conditions that have to be met in order to get there. All participants have received a paper form to express their views. Completed forms must be returned to the organisers at the end of the workshop, or submitted electronically before the end of October 2001.
The results will be published here.
The primary target audience consisted of people with an analytical or future oriented, programmatic interest, both from research and from industry.

This is a research study looking at gene characteristics in blood and Pap smear samples in hopes of identifying markers that will predict if the HPV infection is present or not.

HPV Infections |
Study Type: | Observational |
Study Design: | Observational Model: Cohort Time Perspective: Prospective |
Official Title: | Biomarkers of HPV Clearance: A Prospective Study |
Whole blood, cervical cells
Enrollment: | 197 |
Study Start Date: | January 2007 |
Study Completion Date: | November 2010 |
Primary Completion Date: | November 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
Groups/Cohorts |
HPV positive
Detailed Description:
Because infection with high-risk human papillomavirus is a necessary cause of cervical cancer, HPV testing has many potential uses in cervical cancer screening. Unfortunately, like cytology, it suffers from a lack of specificity when used for population-based screening. Given that HPV testing detects more cases of CIN3+ than cytology and that it would probably be more practical in developing regions, finding a biomarker that would increase specificity has been the goal for much research on HPV and cervical cancer. The goal of this study is to explore potential predictors of viral clearance, specifically RNA levels of candidate genes in cervical swabs and host genetic polymorphisms, in the context of genotype-specific infection data.

Process Support for Cooperative Work on the World Wide Web
Sikkel, Klaas and Neumann, Olaf and Sachweh, Sabine (1998) Process Support for Cooperative Work on the World Wide Web. In: Sixth Euromicro Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Processing, PDP 1998, 21-23 January 1998, Madrid, Spain (pp. pp. 325-331).
Abstract: | The World Wide Web is becoming a dominating factor in information technology. Consequently, computer supported cooperative work on the Web has recently drawn a lot of attention. "Process Support for Cooperative Work" (PSCW) is a Web based system supporting both structured and unstructured forms of cooperation. It is a combination of the "Basic Support for Cooperative Work" (BSCW) shared workspace system and the Merlin Process Support Environment. The current PSCW prototype offers a loose connection, in effect extending BSCW with a gateway to Merlin. With this prototype we have successfully addressed the technical issues involved; further integration of functionality should not pose any real problems. We focus on the technical side of the PSCW system, which gives a good insight into the issues that have to be addressed generally in the construction of Web based groupware. |

Nicholas Gruner
Nicholas Nightingale Gruner (born May 4, 1942) is a suspended Roman Catholic priest and a promoter of the message of Our Lady of Fatima, an apparition of the Virgin Mary at Fatima, Portugal in 1917. Father Gruner's interpretation of that message has, at times, proved somewhat controversial, even among other groups of Traditionalist Catholics.
The fifth of seven children, Father Gruner was born in Montreal, Canada, to Malcom and Jessie (née Mullally) Gruner. His paternal grandmother claimed the family was related to Florence Nightingale. He is a graduate of McGill University with post-graduate degrees in theology from the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome.
Gruner started an apostolate in the 1970s to promote the message of Fátima.[1] He was ordained at Avellino, Italy on August 22, 1976 by Bishop Pasquale Venezia.
In 1978, he launched a periodical dedicated to Our Lady of Fatima, which was a journal mostly dedicated to praying the rosary, until Gruner became focused particularly on the consecration of the Soviet Union controversy.
Consecration of Russia[edit]
In 1929, Lúcia dos Santos, one of the three visionaries of the Virgin Mary Marian apparition at Fatima, Portugal, revealed that the Virgin Mary had requested that Russia be consecrated to Her Immaculate Heart. Sister Lúcia reported that Our Lady said, "If My requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace. If not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, various nations will be annihilated. In the end, My Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to Me, and she will be converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world."[citation needed]
In accord with Sister Lúcia's avowal, Pope Pius XII consecrated the entire world (including Russia, but not mentioning it specifically) to the Immaculate Heart of Mary in 1942. However, that proved, at least initially, to be insufficient for Sister Lúcia, who indicated that the Pope and all the bishops of the Church should make the Consecration simultaneously.
On 13 May 1984, Pope John Paul II followed his predecessor in consecrating the entire world to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, but without specifically mentioning Russia, and again without the bishops joining in.[2]
The Fatima Crusader[edit]
Gruner and his magazine, "Fatima Crusader," take a critical stance toward the compliance of the Popes with the message of Fátima, specifically the request for the Consecration of Russia.[1]
Gruner held that John Paul II was held by the consent of his predecessor, Pope John XXIII, to an alleged Vatican/Moscow concordat, which had been signed between His Holiness and then-Premier Nikita Khrushchev of the Soviet Union. This was primarily because the Vatican's secretary of state, Cardinal Agostino Casaroli, also supported this alleged concordat.
Throughout the 1980s, the Fatima Crusader made further frequent allegations that the Vatican had been infiltrated and subverted, and that the Soviet Union was engaging in deliberate deception when it depicted Mikhail Gorbachev and perestroika as initiators of internal Communist reform after the Soviet war in Afghanistan in the 1980s. In 1988, he urged a letter writing campaign against arms control talks.
When the Soviet Union finally disintegrated in 1991, Fatima pietist groups, like the Blue Army of Our Lady of Fatima and Fatima Family Apostolate, rejoiced, regarding this as evidence of the efficacy of the dedication of the world to the Immaculate Heart of Mary that John Paul II had conducted nine years before, but which Gruner and the Fatima Crusader discount this based on the lack of evidence of a spiritual conversion in Russia.
According to Colin Donovan STL, "This magazine also attacks anyone who disagrees with Fr. Gruner's opinions on Fátima, showing contempt for all other Fátima apostles. This includes holy priests like Fr. Robert Fox, whose Fátima Family Apostolate has propagated the Fátima message to far greater audiences than Fr. Gruner could ever hope to do..."[3]
Despite subsequent assurances by the remaining visionary Sr. Lucia Santos, given through the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, his criticism continues.[1] It has also been suggested that Sr. Lucia was kept from speaking the truth about the message of Fátima.[3] Writer and commentator Carlos Evaristo sees Gruner as an example of an exegetical free-for-all that's long percolated in the Fatima underground. "What happened with the Fatima message is that Sr. Lucy related it but never interpreted it; that left space for all sorts of strange theories."[4]
Gruner initiated a radio and television campaign for his message, leading his organization's claimed membership to reach an estimated four hundred thousand by the early 1990s. Since then, the Crusader has continued to argue for the Consecration of Russia and maintained that such action is urgent. In recent years Fr. Gruner has aligned himself increasingly with ultra-traditionalists who oppose the acts and decrees of Vatican II and the recent pontiffs in a number of matters, especially liturgical.[3]
Fr. Gruner was ordered by his ecclesiastical superior to return to the diocese of his incardination. He was also warned that failure to do so would result in his suspension "a divinis" (the loss of faculties for celebrating Mass, hearing confessions, etc.).[5] He did not undertake the action required of him, and subsequently in 1996 he was suspended from his priestly functions by the Bishop of Avellino, Italy, and then appealed the suspension.
The appeal was unsuccessful. In September 2001, the Congregation for the Clergy, stated that Father Gruner's suspension was "confirmed by a definitive sentence of the supreme tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura."[6][7] According to the priest himself, he has never been suspended at all.[8] Gruner was subsequently incardinated in the Archdiocese of Hyderabad, but remains suspended.[9] The Catholic Archdiocese of Toronto and the Diocese of London, Ontario, warned parishioners not to support Gruner's organization.[10]
On October 23, 2012 Gruner, along with attorney Christopher Ferrara, appeared at the headquarters of the European Union in Strasbourg, France to speak in support of a motion for a declaration by the EU Parliament calling upon Pope Benedict XVI to carry out the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Gruner and Ferrara were invited to speak at a press conference by the sponsors of the motion, MEPs Mario Borghezio and Lorenzo Fontana.[11]
Father Gruner was scheduled to appear at a June 22, 2014 event to mark the 44th anniversary of the discredited apparitions at Bayside. This event was to benefit St. Michael's World Apostolate. In response, the Brooklyn Diocese's Chancellor, Msgr. Anthony Hernandez, sent a communiqué to all pastors warning about a suspended priest who encourages these devotions and was planning an appearance in Queens. It stated:
Recently, our Diocesan Bishop, the Most Reverend Nicholas DiMarzio, received confirmation from the Holy See that the Reverend Nicholas Gruner, who is currently incardinated in the Archdiocese of Hyderabad, in India, continues to labor under the canonical sanction of suspension, cf. Can. 1333, which has been confirmed by the Apostolic Signatura in Rome. ... Please be advised that the Diocese of Brooklyn has consistently rejected the veracity of the claims concerning the alleged Marian apparitions in Bayside, Queens. Recently, Bishop DiMarzio released a statement reaffirming the positions of his two predecessors, Most Reverend Francis J. Mugavero and the Most Reverend Thomas V. Daily. This statement was printed in The Tablet (June 7) and is posted on the diocesan website in order that the faithful of the Diocese of Brooklyn be fully informed of the Church's decision on this matter. Given that Father Gruner remains suspended, and, given that the alleged Bayside apparitions have been rejected by the legitimate ecclesiastical authorities, the faithful are strongly discouraged from participating in any events connected to Father Gruner or St. Michael's World Apostolate.[9]
The Southern Poverty Law Center, a non-profit civil rights organization, has listed Gruner's Fatima Crusader as a periodical which has published anti-Semitic articles.[12][13] The Anti-Defamation League has identified Gruner as a holocaust denier who has promoted conspiracy theories about the Jews plotting to overthrow Christian civilization, and the Fatima Center, as a radical Catholic organization that espouses anti-Semitic views.[14]
