Philadelphia's Archbishop Chaput has long been known for his candor, but his May 24 column is particularly refreshing. I direct your attention to the following sentence: "Anyone who thinks that our country's neuralgic sexuality issues can somehow be worked out respectfully in the public square in the years ahead, without a parallel and vigorous defense of religious freedom, had better think again." In other words, mere words are not going to be enough to retain our right to, and our nation's heritage of, religious liberty.

WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - Philadelphia's Archbishop Chaput has long been known for his candor, but his May 24 column is particularly refreshing. I direct your attention to the following sentence:
"Anyone who thinks that our country's neuralgic sexuality issues can somehow be worked out respectfully in the public square in the years ahead, without a parallel and vigorous defense of religious freedom, had better think again."
In other words, mere words are not going to be enough to retain our right to, and our nation's heritage of, religious liberty.
The 2012 presidential election was, if nothing else, a national referendum on religious liberty. Unless people were determined to know nothing about national affairs prior to casting their votes, the issue of the HHS mandate -- a fundamental violation of religious liberty -- was widely known. Some Catholic voters were alarmed, and voted accordingly, but not nearly enough to cause a difference in outcome.
Blame? There's plenty to go around. But finger-pointing at this moment in time is useless and a waste of time. It's just as useless as another eloquent column written in defense of the 1st Amendment to the Constitution and the discriminatory targeting of conservative, pro-life, pro-marriage groups by the IRS.
Archbishop Chaput points out that these violations are not isolated instances:
"Coupled with the White House's refusal to uphold the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act, and its astonishing disregard for the unique nature of religious freedom displayed by its arguments in a 9-0 defeat in the 2012 Hosanna-Tabor Supreme Court decision, the HHS mandate can only be understood as a form of coercion."
What exactly does the Archbishop mean when he says these issues will not be "worked out respectfully in the public square in the years ahead"? He means that Catholics and all people of faith must embrace a new paradigm of evangelizing the culture. The paradigm of exerting influence by making arguments in the public square, first exemplified by the late Father Richard Neuhaus, must be supplemented by a paradigm of activism.
Activism can take many forms, from filing law suits and investigative reporting to public demonstrations, TV/radio messaging, and grassroots political action. But the bottom line is this: the threat to religious liberty, to our families, and our national heritage cannot be conducted from an arm chair. Those pundits who spend day after day in front of a computer, questioning the moral and theological purity of those who are actually making a difference by being "out on the street," need to think less and act more. To be brutally honest, what they are saying about the culture wars has been repeated ad nauseam for decades.
Archbishop Chaput's column is entitled "Religious Freedom and The Need to Wake Up." He could have also added "To Get Up" out of those comfortable chairs where the world looks so simple, so black and white. Will we "sleep through the national discussion of religious liberty" the Archbishop warns against? Are we another generation of "sleepwalkers" who led to the holocausts of the first two world wars? (It's time to rediscover Herman Broch's great 1931 novel The Sleepwalkers with its narrative description of the disintegration of values leading to WWII).
Catholics who call themselves "conservative," "orthodox," or "pro-life" are often heroic, tireless, and generous, but many suffer from a common ailment: They talk too much and when they talk they say the same thing over and over again. It's called "preaching to the choir."
There is no one simple solution to Archbishop Chaput's rallying cry: There are a myriad of activist opportunities begging for bodies and support, from the Susan B. Anthony List and the Alliance for Marriage to Live Action and the Alliance Defending Freedom. No doubt more organizations and new leadership will be jumping into the breach.
Please become one of those who are acting in the public square in defense of the Church and our nation. Otherwise, we will wake up one day in the future, and what we considered could have never happened in our nation will be a fait accompli. (I deliberately use the French for "accomplished fact" because the French never believed that Hitler would occupy their beloved Paris.)

The Freddie Gray case (the archive is available here), like the Trayvon Martin case, is turning out to be another black hole for prosecutorial competence and ethical behavior. In reporting about and analyzing such cases, I strive to provide perspective that can't be found elsewhere, based largely on my police experience. In that pursuit, I do my best to explain the "between the lines" motivations and actions of all involved, hopefully so that readers can learn what is actually happening. Usually, this is best accomplished by explaining what one would expect to see if the system were working ethically and professionally, and exposing it when it is not.
Most Americans don't realize that education in the specific role of a prosecutor is not a topic to which much time is devoted in law school. Certainly, all law students must take basic courses in criminal law and procedure, but for the most part, practical learning and training takes place on the job or not at all. This should help us understand the plight of Baltimore Prosecutor Marilyn Mosby, in office only a short time and with no prior experience, when the Freddie Gray case occurred.

Newsbrief: Flasher threat

It only took an hour or two for an insanely overheated and unhinged response to Puig being late
Apr 4, 2014, 3:32 PM EDT
As I said in the initial Puig post, I would've benched Puig for being late to the park. It's a no-brainer. You're late, you ride the pine. This is not at all controversial. For Don Mattingly to do anything else would be wrong.
But of course, it's never that simple with Puig. When he does something like this it's the Worst Thing In The World. If you don't believe me, read this from the Los Angeles Daily News:
Yes, he's going to totally unravel the team. What's more:
Yasiel Puig is the very thing that stands to undo the Dodgers' World Series championship hopes. Not injuries to Clayton Kershaw or Brian Wilson or any other player . . . Don't listen to anything he says. He's not responsible. He's reckless and selfish and his mistakes are inexcusable . . . He cheated everyone out of watching his antics — both dazzling and disturbing — in the home opener. Shame on him.
Clearly that's not overstated. Not in the least. Puig being on this team is objectively far worse than not having Clayton Kershaw on it. Indeed, if it meant getting rid of Puig for good, I'm sure Don Mattingly would hold Kershaw's arm out straight while Ned Colletti broke it with a sledgehammer. It's that important!
Seriously, folks: this is what I get on about when I defend Puig. I don't defend his actions when they are legitimately out of line. But I will defend anyone who attacked in such an over-the-top manner, as Puig routinely is. By people who are either unable or unwilling to distinguish between the notion of a player screwing up and a player dooming his team because of his screwups.
Puig has done the former plenty of times. He has done nothing close to the latter, and anyone suggesting otherwise is way more interested in sensationalism than accuracy.
- djandujar - Apr 4, 2014 at 7:18 PM
If players are "distracted" by a rookie playing ball then maybe they need to re-focus on hitting, pitching and fielding. How are the Dodgers gonna win a championship when you have a bunch of players who are too easily "distracted"? Maybe if they can focus on the game then they could win.
- illuminancer - Apr 4, 2014 at 8:49 PM
I'm not at all sorry that Puig was benched, because I think the score might have been lopsided the other direction. But…I honestly don't get it. You're a Big Thing in LA, and this is your first Opening Day with the team that's raising the NL West banner. I'd be there like, four hours early! That's like being late to your wedding or something.
- kicksave1980 - Apr 4, 2014 at 9:38 PM
Like others have said, when you have to defend Puig all the time, there's obviously something wrong. I'm not here to pile on the guy, but seriously…showing up on time is the absolute least that can be expected from someone. The kid has a ton of talent, no one can dispute that. Who knows what's been said to him in the locker room by veterans or coaches, but you can't let this happen. Everyone is late sometimes, but when it's "always something", it wears thin on people around you.
Doesn't matter how young he is. To whom much is given, much is expected.
- renaado - Apr 5, 2014 at 1:45 AM
Puig… you idiot! I almost change my way on seeing you positively when you seek advise from veterans on how to become a better person and athlete. By the time I saw this statement of yours now? You really really let me down dude.. I was really hoping for you to change on becomin a better person …
- mutasian - Apr 5, 2014 at 3:46 PM
i said before. this guy is uneducated. he came from a third work, came from nothing. and he has an character and personality issue. over night, he is a millionaire, and he mismanages his life. he won't last in this league. he is trash. another piece of trash from the latin world down south.
- gloccamorra - Apr 5, 2014 at 4:46 PM
I was ready to agree with your first two sentences, but then you went too far. You don't think a person can learn and grow? You don't think he can grow up and mature? He has great baseball talent, so the Dodgers will be patient with him, showing him the way, rather than toss him on the trash heap as a failed human being.
- mpzz - Apr 5, 2014 at 9:57 PM
I agree that people go overboard on criticizing Puig.
Having said that, I think his screwups have affected his play. I don't know why he can't just concentrate on being a good ballplayer and trying not to screw up off the field. You wouldn't think that would be so hard for anyone.

Somehow, I keep being reminded of Milton Bradley. This will not end well.
- tmovingstar - Apr 6, 2014 at 12:17 AM
I love it. The Dodgers sign a guy that can't read or write and give him 40million dollars. The guy probably cant' tell time either. Are we sure he wasn't on that boat when Castro sent all the illiterate people and prisoners to Miami a while back. Maybe he could be a modern day Tony Montana learn another trade he is better at.

Renaissance subsidiary, Topaz Marine Engineering ("Topaz"), a UAE-based full service ship building, ship repair and engineering services company, confirms it has been commissioned by the Kuwait Oil Company ("KOC") to design, build and deliver 10 Fast Steel Crew /Pilot Boats of 22m LOA ("Crew/Pilot Boats"), market estimates believe the contract value to be in the region of US$50 million.
With a focus on high technology and latest design, the Crew/Pilot boat will be designed to accommodate 30 crew, with passengers all seated on the main deck and will be provided with first quality equipment. The new crew/pilot boats will be providing 24 hours crew transfer service to the vessels anchored in Kuwait waters and will be equipped with oil spill recovery capabilities and latest advanced navigation and communication systems.
The boat will be built at Topaz's Nico Craft Shipyard in Abu Dhabi where the construction will start in the beginning of 2013 with the 10 units scheduled for delivery in Kuwait within 2014.
Thomas Bower, Managing Director of Topaz Marine Engineering, commented: "This contract is another achievement for Topaz Group and confirms our leadership as fast crew/supply boats supply in MENA region. He further says: "International recognition, experience, quality of work and commitment for on-time delivery at Topaz are some of the strengths that helped us win this contract after a competitive worldwide tender process."
From its main shipyard at Mussafah Industrial Area in Abu Dhabi, Topaz has built a strong reputation for on-time delivery of high-quality offshore vessels. The company has developed into one of the leading shipbuilders in the GCC region with a portfolio of both steel and aluminium vessels and is fully dedicated in providing international standards in the shipbuilding construction which brought the attention of global clients.
Topaz Marine Engineering has had an excellent year. It has delivered two Catamaran Wind Farm boats to UK, has completed two 67m Anchor Handling Supply (AHTS) 80 Tons BP vessels for deployment in the Caspian Sea and West Africa. Furthermore, Topaz was awarded a contract from GAC Group to provide completion services for two crew/cargo vessels which will be delivered within the next weeks and a new 40 passengers ferry is currently under construction.
Topaz Marine Engineering provides ship building, marine repair and underwater support services to the offshore supply vessel and engineering markets in the Middle East, North Africa, and Caspian Sea. The Company has over 35 years of experience and is part of the Topaz Group - a wholly-owned subsidiary of Renaissance Services, an Omani public company listed on the Muscat Securities Market.

The Nebraska Cornhuskers will be without their three superstars on defense from last year: Alfonzo Dennard, Jared Crick and Lavonte David. All are in the NFL now. Even with the trio, the team's defense wasn't all that spectacular in 2011. Linebacker Will Compton may not have as much NFL potential as Baker Steinkuhler, or some of the other blackshirts, but he's the heart and soul of their defense this fall. Compton talked about all the challenges he faces as a Linebacker going against the various offenses in the Big Ten. "Every week has its own challenge. I mean you go from teams who do the the whole option game and run it a lot more and then you got teams like Northwestern that are very pass heavy. We approach every week differently. Yeah, you're aware of the statistics on run to pass because you gotta know that stuff for game play and preparation wise.You face a lot more mobile quarterbacks, something we see in the big 12, we're seeing a lot in the Big 10," Compton said.

A categorical, higher dimensional algebra and generalized topos framework for Łukasiewicz–Moisil Algebraic–Logic models of non-linear dynamics in complex functional genomes and cell interactomes is proposed. Łukasiewicz–Moisil Algebraic–Logic models of neural, genetic and neoplastic cell networks, as well as signaling pathways in cells are formulated in terms of non-linear dynamic systems with n-state components that allow for the generalization of previous logical models of both genetic activities and neural networks. An algebraic formulation of variable 'next-state functions' is extended to a Łukasiewicz–Moisil Topos with an n-valued Łukasiewicz–Moisil Algebraic Logic subobject classifier description that represents non-random and non-linear network activities as well as their transformations in developmental processes and carcinogenesis. The unification of the theories of organismic sets, molecular sets and Robert Rosen's (M,R)-systems is also considered here in terms of natural transformations of organismal structures which generate higher dimensional algebras based on consistent axioms, thus avoiding well known logical paradoxes occurring with sets. Quantum bionetworks, such as quantum neural nets and quantum genetic networks, are also discussed and their underlying, non-commutative quantum logics are considered in the context of an emerging Quantum Relational Biology.

Have you ever had a fashion makeover?
Asked at Massachusetts Street on January 20, 2013
"I have never had a fashion makeover, though I'd be willing to give fashion makeovers. I see a lot of bad fashion in Lawrence that I'm willing to correct. "
"No, I don't feel like I need a fashion makeover. I'm happy with my fashion when I wake up. "
"Not an official one — just slowly transitioning from different clothes but never a total overhaul."

I tole the missus that I think it had been since June when she last used those shears on my head and that it was about time again as long as she didn't cut it too close due to the recent spell of cold. I then took those shears and cut those straggly hairs from my upper lip that keep getting caught in my teeth when I chew. To top it off, I ran by the thrift store and got some really fine button down shirts that still had all the buttons on them even though a few of them were only half there. No holes in my trouser knees, so that'll wait for another time. Slip on my torn up insulated coveralls so I protect my fine new duds, pull a wool cap over my clipped head and I feel like a new man!

Little Brother
You'd think it would be difficult to tell who's wearing blackface when you're looking at the world through rose-colored glasses, but the guys in North Carolina hip-hop outfit Little Brother think they have a grip on the situation. On songs such as "Cheatin'" and reoccurring interludes, Little Brother MCs Phonte and Big Pooh take aim at the entertainment industry's portrayal of African Americans. The duo's cadence and themes owe more than a little to Common and Q-Tip, and that nostalgic vibe is mirrored by 9th Wonder's production. Much has been made of 9th's similarities to mid-Nineties luminaries such as Pete Rock, DJ Premier, and J. Dilla, and though he does borrow elements from those greats, The Minstrel Show finds him slipping into a style distinctly his own. His minimal arrangements on songs such as "All for You" and "Watch Me" emphasize thinly chopped vocal loops juxtaposed against spare drums and thumping bass lines. The result is a sound that is head-nodding and surpassingly lilting. The production's soft heart helps the MCs' politically pointed messages go down a lot smoother, making The Minstrel show one of the most enjoyable and easily digestible hip-hop releases of the season.

Jeremy Gallon Poised for Breakout Senior Season for Michigan Wolverines
As Brady Hoke continues to mold the Michigan Wolverines into the team he wants them to be, you can count on more pro-style sets and offensive balance coming into play. That means quarterback Devin Gardner will affect games more with his arm than his legs as former quarterback Denard Robinson did. The biggest benefactor to that shift in 2013 could be wide receiver Jeremy Gallon who is ready to close out his Michigan career with a boom.
Gallon was the team's leading receiver in 2012, catching 49 passes for 829 yards and four touchdowns. He finished the season on a very strong note with Gardner under center, catching five passes or more in each of his final four games, capped by a nine-catch, 145-yard, two-touchdown performance against the South Carolina Gamecocks in the Outback Bowl. With a full offseason to build chemistry with Gardner, Gallon should continue that hot finish through next fall.
At 5-foot-8, 187 pounds, Gallon isn't a prototypical receiver that can go up and win every jump ball that is thrown his way. He relies on his athleticism and route-running ability to get the ball in space and make defenders miss after the catch. That playmaking ability will make him a key piece to Hoke's offense in 2013 as he finds ways to get Gardner into a rhythm early, which could include plenty of quick and easy looks to Gallon.
What he does with those opportunities will decide just how high his star will rise next season. He has the skill set to be a dynamic force in the passing game and a matchup nightmare for defensive coordinators as Hoke moves him all over the formation, but can he capitalize and break through in 2013?

NORWALK, Conn. - Norwalk will host a gun buyback event at police headquarters on Feb. 2, Chief Thomas Kulhawik announced Wednesday.
"We're hopeful that this will be effective in taking some guns off the street. Even if it's just one or two, that's still something. Those guns can't be stolen, can't get lost or sold to someone else," Kulhawik said.
Police will issue VISA gift cards in exchange for functioning guns. They will also accept non-functioning weapons, but not will not issue gift cards for them.
The event is being paid for by an anonymous donation of $5,026 made in honor of the victims of Sandy Hook. The donation was made with the expressed purpose of hosting a gun buyback. Kulhawik is hopeful that there may be more donations made for the event.
Kulhawik said that they are modeling their program after Stamford, which recently hosted two buyback events and is planning two more for the month of January.
Details of the event, including guidelines and times, will be released in the next week.

A day at the beach with mom
... Lodge if your travels take you to Pismo Beach and you need a place to stay and eat, both right off the Price Street 101 exit. Had such a pleasant evening catching up with dear old friends tonight for dinner at Tahoe Joes and enjoying my mom's company. There are just barely a few days left, but I have plenty more last minute shopping to do! Wishing everyone a wonderful remainder of the holiday ...
Heading off
... surf schools along the beach and no busy roads running through the place like Malibu. There was even a crazy lady with a cat in a cat pushchair and she got it out and walked it on the beach. The kids didn't believe me.
Arriving into Pismo Beach Coast resort it was completely different to Malibu with lots of things for the kids to do; clubhouse, volleyball, ...
... qu'est-ce que t'en dis ? Tu nous entends la tristesse, tu nous entends ? Si tu nous entends c'est qu'toi aussi tu vas bientôt faire ton sac, prendre la première à gauche deuxième à droite puis encore à gauche et aller niquer ta race, félicitations bravo ! Tu nous entends la mort, tu nous entends ? Si tu nous entends sache que tu nous fais pas peur tu peux tirer tout c'que tu veux, on avance quand même tu pourras pas nous arrêter, et ...
Goodbye Los Angeles, hello to Pacific Coast
... sand and a thriving restaurant community. All types of beach shops as well. Tonight is a treat - a live show. The American melodrama showing The Song of the Canyon Kid with a strumming cowboy, should be a good laugh even if some what cringeworthy. But, to our delight it was slapstick old style vaudeville show that had laughs a-plenty. The amateur cast were full of life and the show kept us entertained for 2.5 hours. Friday we head to Cambria to visit Hearst Castle on ...
San Simeon to Shell beach 49 miles
... go into the Brewhouse next door for a few beers, I've never seen so many tattoos,bushy beards & weird looking youngsters in one place. The girl next to me had quite a low neck top & her whole chest was tattooed plus arms & fingers too - maybe her whole body was. A guy even had a T shirt saying Keep Calm & grow a Beard. Everybody really nice though as usual, then off for a Chinese which was really good & back for an early night, it was a really tiring ...

It was the perfect day for cricket, welcomed by the crowd at day two of the Hedley Howarth Trophy competition on Saturday.
Suburbs New Lynn took to the crease to finish their innings against Takapuna at Ken Maunder Park, resuming play at 5/154.
Suburbs scored 210 all out with Ben Hick falling agonisingly short of his maiden premier century after being dismissed by fast bowler Greg Johnson for 95 runs from 155 deliveries.
Suburbs player-coach Darren Eckford felt sorry for his gun batsmen who was caught trying to play a shot through cover.
"Ben was pretty gutted, he was so close to getting his first ton," Eckford says.
Suburbs wasted no time in ripping through Takapuna's batting order for the victory.
The visitors tumbled to 105 all out with Eckford, Michael Barry and Josh Presland grabbing three wickets each.
Forcing the follow-on for bonus points, Suburbs continued to restrict Takapuna in the second innings but the wickets were less forthcoming.
Takapuna managed 3/111 in the second innings.
"I guess they tried to play too many shots and we took advantage of that," Eckford says.
"The pitch was good but we got a little tired from bowling all morning and that showed a little in the second innings."
Suburbs New Lynn sits in third place and will face Parnell this weekend.
Waitakere were looking to continue their good form at Te Atatu Park in day two of their Tom Hellaby Trophy match with Eden Roskill.
The home side declared from last weekend's day one total of 9/289.
Waitakere coach Nazeem Smith says his side sent a clear message heading into day two.
"We felt that 289 was enough to defend.
"We were a little worried because our leg spinner Sheahan Huri was unavailable and we had to change our strategy a little."
But there was little cause for concern as off spinner Aaron Jeavons was in fine form for Waitakere, taking four wickets for 22 runs.
Waitakere finished off Eden Roskill 206 all out for an 83 run victory.
"We were patient and that was the key," Smith says.
"There were no shenanigans from the pitch and it didn't really favour either side."
Waitakere are now second on the table and face Ellerslie this weekend who are right behind them in third.
Suburbs New Lynn 210 (B. Hick 95; N. Collins 6-47, G. Johnson 4-71)
Takapuna 105 and 111-3 (J. Sole 56)

Hardy Boyz Reunion Planned In WWE Next Year?
Matt Hardy said in an interview with Passing The Torch Radio that it's likely we will see him reunite with his brother Jeff Hardy next year. What's even more interesting about his answer is that he said it's "very likely" the reunion will take place in the WWE.
The reason Matt thinks this is possible is because he's a free agent right now. After he was released from TNA Wrestling a few years ago, he spent a few months cleaning up his life and has since been wrestling in the independent circuit. As it is right now, Matt seems more mentally stable than he was at the time he uploaded a suicide note on Youtube.
Jeff is, meanwhile, currently enjoying his time in TNA. Not only is he the current TNA World Heavyweight Champion, he's the most popular wrestler in the company right now. Jeff's contract with TNA expires in February 2013, which could open a window for his WWE return.
Is this all wishful thinking for Matt, though? Sure, the fans would love to see the Hardy Boyz back in the WWE. But has the company fully forgiven them for the mistakes both Hardys have made in the past?
Jeff is on two strikes in the WWE right now. One more suspension and he's immediately fired. Also, TNA Wrestling has been treating Jeff a lot kinder than WWE has ever done. He's the number one person in the company right now and is the current TNA Champion. Why would he want to leave all that behind come February 2013?
Matt is a similar story. He has not said any kind words to the WWE when he left the company a few years ago and even did a "shoot promo" against the company when he was employed in TNA. Not to mention that the apparent aforementioned suicide note on Youtube ruined his chances of returning to the company in a positive light.
Still, this is the WWE we are talking about here and Vince McMahon usually forgives past talent in the name of business. If he feels that a "Hardy Boyz" reunion in 2013 will make him money, then Matt's prediction might come true after all.
