Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, California
Seeing the fog rolling into the Bay is a sight to behold! Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, Calif.
San Francisco- Here you can see the Golden Gate Bridge in the foreground and the city, and Alcatraz, in the background. The first year we went we cycled all along the sea front, up and over the bridge and back again. I found this especially hard! When we got back to the bike rental place it turned out I had it set on the hardest gear the whole time. Still, an amazing experience.
The beauty of the Bay Area at night.

Let us pray…
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."
- St. John Paul II
A bit more food for thought…
"Only one sin is nowadays severely punished: the attentive observance of the traditions of our Fathers. For that reason the good ones are thrown out of their places and brought to the desert."
- Basil of Caesarea - ep. 243

For your consideration…
"One of the most dangerous errors is that civilization is automatically bound to increase and spread. The lesson of history is the opposite; civilization is a rarity, attained with difficulty and easily lost. The normal state of humanity is barbarism, just as the normal surface of the planet is salt water. Land looms large in our imagination and civilization in history books, only because sea and savagery are to us less interesting."
- C.S. Lewis
More food for thought:
"I expect to die in bed, my successor will die in prison and his successor will die a martyr in the public square. His successor will pick up the shards of a ruined society and slowly help rebuild civilization, as the church has done so often in human history."

Even More Food For Thought
"Men by their constitutions are naturally divided into two parties: 1. Those who fear and distrust the people, and wish to draw all powers from them into the hands of the higher classes. 2. Those who identify themselves with the people, have confidence in them, cherish and consider them as the most honest and safe, although not the most wise depositary of the public interests."

San Leandro Marina ParkRead MoreParticipants in the Move to Stop Modern Day Slavery Walkathon stroll or run through a scenic 5-kilometer course to raise funds for California Against Slavery?s fight to end human trafficking in the state. The fundraising ramble kicks off at 7:30 a.m., when racers and walkers can register their lower backs with a walkathon t-shirt and a number for easy identification by mobile high-five squads. At 8:30 a.m., competitive racers launch themselves onto the 5K course, followed 15 minutes later by walkers, who ramble through bayside parkland at a more leisurely pace. At the end of the course, both groups can collect snacks and recount tales of derring-do on the course before settling in to absorb speeches from CAS executive director Daphne Phung, human-trafficking survivor Nikki Junker, and police association president Brian Marvel.

We are not ready to leave! Never have we visited such a place. Staying mid-town has been such a privilege. Lisa said it best when describing resort hotels as pretending you are not there. IslaMar Villas has opened up Cozumel to us. The warmth of the people, the AMAZING foods, the idea we can get whatever we need without a car and sometimes just a smile if we've run out of pesos. Our suite was PERFECT, Zuri is on top of everything and happy about it! Mauricio entertained us with his English lessons and stories of home. Thank to both Lisa & Sherri for the hospitality and happily sharing this amazing part of Mexico with us. I am sure we will be back before 2010 is over!
Corey R. & Kimberly G. ~ Seattle, WA

Stay (04/01/2013) - When we arrive to IslaMar, it is like being welcomed home and IslaMar has been our home for several years. Miguel is a wonderful villa host and Zuri who sees us each day is like family. Sherri and Mauricio it is wonderful seeing you in Cozumel once again! It is with sadness that it is time to leave our IslaMar Home and we look forward to our return next year!

CHENGDU, China (AFP) - Australia came from behind twice to scramble a 2-2 draw with Canada and book a place in the quarter-finals of the women's World Cup for the first time on Thursday.
Captain Cheryl Salisbury fired home a 92nd minute equaliser to cancel out a goal from Canadian skipper Christine Sinclair that came five minutes from the end of regulation time and looked like the match winner.
Appearing in her 103rd match, Sinclair scored in the 85th-minute to put the Canadians 2-1 up and within reach of a quarter-final spot.
It was a sickening blow that Australian coach Tom Sermanni thought would prove fatal.
"We stopped playing the way we usually play in the second half and when they scored late I thought the game was all over," he said.
"My players showed a lot of character and resilience, though, and I was so pleased when that final goal fell in.
"It was a very long 90 minutes."
That crucial equaliser fell to the boot of central defender Salisbury with Australia's last surge of the game.
The point earns Australia the second qualifying spot and a quarter-final in Tianjin on Sunday.
Norway took top spot in Group C following their 7-2 win against already eliminated Ghana.
Australia beat Ghana 4-1 in their opening game last week for their first World Cup win in 12 years then drew 1-1 with former world champions Norway.
Canada lost 2-1 to Norway in their opener but beat Ghana 4-0 in their second tie.
The Canadians were 1-0 up with just 32 seconds of the match gone after Melissa Tancredi shot cleanly past Australian 'keeper Melissa Barbieri in their first attack of the game.
Australia had to wait for the equaliser but were back on level terms with a superb free-kick from midfield general Collette McCallum after 53 minutes.
The Australians, who have been eliminated in the first round of the last three World Cups, were looking sharper and more dangerous throughout the match.
But it was Canada, semi-finalists four years ago, who went ahead through captain Sinclair's brilliant header with just five minutes to go.
It was the Canadian captain's third goal of the tournament and 84th for her country. But her opposite number Salisbury had the last word with her last-gasp strike levelling the score at 2-2.
Canada's Norwegian coach Even Pellerud said his side had dominated the second half but allowed Australia one last fatal chance.
"We gave the Aussies too much possession in the first half and this proved to be a mistake as they improved as the game went on," he said
"We hesitated on the ball deep into stoppage time and allowed them one last chance and they took full advantage of it."
Prior to the match the sides had met 13 times, sharing honours with six wins and a draw.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Weak Response
by Paul on 03/17/07 at 07:56 PM ET
Comments (0)
from Jeff Z. Klein & Karl-Eric Reif at the New York Times (Sunday edition),
Despite a number of injuries in the past few years as a result of illegal or malicious play by fellow union members, the union's only action — in marked contrast to similar bodies in soccer and football — has been to represent the assailants at disciplinary hearings.
"The N.H.L.P.A. will be reviewing and checking hits to the head with our membership at our annual player meetings this summer," the union's director of hockey affairs, Mike Gartner, said Friday in an e-mail message. "The issue of head shots will likely be an item of discussion for the competition committee as well," he added, referring to a league committee.

Streetlight Manifesto, with Dan Potthast and Zox
Everybody indulges in a guilty pleasure or two. For some, it's eating mayonnaise with a spoon; for others, made-for-TV movies fit the bill. For my wife it's the emotional trash of a Nicholas Sparks novel. Some noble souls choose to brave the judgment of their peers, wearing their scorned passions proudly on their sleeves. Such is the case with the adoring fans of ska-punk outfit Streetlight Manifesto. Formed in the days after ska's effective late-'90s disappearance from the American musical consciousness, Streetlight Manifesto is part of a growing underground of ska torch-bearers whose fans believe in the power of off-beat guitars and sharp horn sections. That underground is gaining momentum again, no doubt aided in part by the culling of commercial bandwagoneers who diluted the genre into mere caricature. Since then, the American ska scene has been reborn in a leaner, tighter incarnation. What's more, today's ska sports more of an experimental flair — those who don't care about getting on the radio are free to play fast and loose with genre strictures. Streetlight, for example, dabbles with tribal percussion and sounds from the former Soviet Bloc.

SearchingSubmitted by Aldon Hynes on Mon, 07/06/2015 - 19:40
It's hard to concentrate
as the helicopter
flies up and down the river,
I read old emails
from a father and son
about a website
we worked on,
Then I glance at the news
about the father
whose only son
was stabbed to death.
I can't imagine the pain.
It's hard to concentrate
as the helicopter
flies up and down the river.
I read Facebook
where a friend posts
about the seven year old boy
who was killed by a gunman
aiming for his father.
I can't imagine the pain.
It's hard to concentrate
as the helicopter
flies up and down the river,
I take a walk at lunch time
Three rescue trucks
return to the firehouse
and the baby boy
believed to be thrown
from the arching bridge
by a young man attempting suicide
still hasn't been found.
I can't imagine the pain.
Rent: What Would Jesus See?Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Mon, 07/06/2015 - 04:21
In the 1980s I lived in New York City and attended an East Village church with many friends who were struggling artists. I would go to off off Broadway shows to see them perform in Israel Horowitz' 'Line' where the cast often outnumbered the audience made up of friends of the actors, and if they were lucky a potential manager who had already seen Line forty-three times but wanted to see how well a potential client could really act.
The adult Sunday School classes were often on topics like Christianity and literature and we would discuss Christian themes in the works of Fyodor Dostoyevsky, W. H. Auden, and Flannery O'Connor. We would talk about what it means to be created in the image of our Creator. We would talk about the Gospel in the contemporary context of AIDS and drug addiction.
Years later, I saw a local high school production of 'Rent' and thought back to those days, those friends and their struggles. Four years later, after Sandy Hook, the local high school produced Sweeny Todd and a group of townspeople organized against it, led by a local priest. They were concerned about the depiction of violence. I attended a Board of Education meeting, and spoke in agreement with those concerned with the depiction of violence I encouraged everyone to attend the musical, and then to gather with friends to discuss it and broader topics of violence in society.
Another person who testified at that hearing was Howard Sherman, and I started following his blog. Recently, he wrote about church leaders in Tullahoma, TN criticizing a production of Rent there.
I shared the following as a comment on Howard's blog post:
As a devote Christian, I agree with part of what Pastor Wayne says, "Jesus should be our moral compass". If we look at the New Testament, we find Jesus healing and breaking bread with characters not much different than the characters in Rent. Personally, I believe that one of the best ways to get a richer understanding of the Gospel is to attend Rent, asking yourself, when Jesus told us to love or neighbors as ourselves, who did he have in mind?
As I suggested when our local school produced Sweeny Todd, go see the play, and then get together with friends and discuss the underlying themes. In the broader context, I'll take a phrase kicked around a bit and apply it here. "What Would Jesus See?" I suspect Jesus would see plays about suffering, love, and redemption. Rent would probably be high on that list.
RestingSubmitted by Aldon Hynes on Sun, 07/05/2015 - 19:46
It's been a fairly quiet Fourth of July weekend. The past few weeks have been really busy, so it has been a time to catch up on my rest. My stomach was also bothering me a little, making the need for rest even more important. I played Ingress. I wrote. I read. I visited with family. I played with the new kitten.
Today, I learned that a friend's son was killed In Washington DC this weekend, so I mourned.
Often, when I sit down to face the blank page, I am bothered that I can't find something to write about. I wrack my brains trying to find a starting thread. This evening, it feels like I don't have much to write about, but that is a good thing. I did have a little bit to write about, and that was resting.
Now, to read and rest a little more.
The FourthSubmitted by Aldon Hynes on Sat, 07/04/2015 - 21:13
"and the rockets' red glare"
had lost some of its luster
over the years.
Once they were the high point
of family outings.
He would run around
the local park
with his siblings
chasing fireflies
until the first loud boom
it was time to settle down
on the itchy old wool
army surplus blanket
they always sat on
at family events.
Once they punctuated
adolescent dreams of romance.
He would stroll around
the town fair grounds
with his friends
chasing girls
or more accurately
talking about who they liked
who they wished
they could talk to
maybe put an arm around
or even kiss.
Standing as close
as possible
to the fireworks
and the girl he had his eye on,
he would feel each explosion
in his gut, in his heart.
Once they were big extravaganzas
during his early career.
He would dance around
the city park
with his coworkers
enjoying the day off,
the music,
the street food,
and the spectacular show
which signaled
the great opportunities
Once they were obligations
he would take his young kids to.
He would push the stroller
to the country club
with his family.
Dolling out crackers
and juice,
he would make sure
the kids stayed close
stayed safe
and had comforting arms
if the explosions were
too loud.
he sat at home,
thinking about the nephew
who lost his legs
in his second tour.
He thought about a friend's
who suffered
visions of Fallujah
when he heard
the distant explosions.
He patted his dog
cowering on the couch
with each burst
and waited
for the long night
to be over.
Ingress Level 16 and more…Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Fri, 07/03/2015 - 22:17
Today, I reached Level 16 in Ingress. For those who don't know Ingress, it is sort of like a 21st century version of capture the flag played on mobile devices. Level 16 is currently the highest level you can reach.
There are two teams in Ingress, the Enlightened and the Resistance. I play for the Enlightened and was the third Enlightened player in Connecticut to reach Level 16. I ended up reaching Level 16 when I captured the portal at the church I attend.
I takes forty million points to reach level 16, and I was about three hundred thousand points away. So, I spent much of the day walking around capturing different portals in different towns.
Also in Ingress, they've added a new item, a MUFG capsule. If you put other items in the capsule, over time, they earn interest, although the details appear uncertain. I've now got eleven MUFG capsules which I've loaded with various items over the days. I've been observing the results.
For me, it seems like all of my dupes come in the evening. I have yet to see dupes come at other times. It also seems that I've had to have a full cycle with no adds or deletions before I get any dupes. I've seen capsules with as few as 15 of a given item dupe, but I've had to have over 40 to get more than 1 dupe of an item. If there are different types of items in a capsule, it seems like only one (randomly selected) dupes.
