That network is still TRASH, though. :(
Sprint announces activation of LTE in 22 more cities
Sprint has announced a major expansion of its LTE rollout, adding coverage to 22 more cities today, bringing the number of markets with access to Sprint's high-speed network up to 110. The new cities include Tampa, Florida, New Orleans, and Miami. In a statement, Sprint touted the speed and energy efficiency of their network.
Today's announcement means that more Americans will experience the speed and power of Sprint 4G LTE," said Bob Azzi, senior vice president-Network, Sprint. "Sprint is committed to delivering the latest technology through a nationwide LTE buildout, and providing new cell sites that are more compact and energy efficient.
An additional 13 cities, including Ann Arbor, Laredo, and Corpus Christi, are scheduled to receive coverage "in the coming months". Sprint stated that their LTE network would be available to 200 million people by the end of 2013, a number mostly theoretical, as many of them would undoubtedly be customers of Sprints competition. But it shows that Sprint is serious about their LTE rollout, an effort that should become even more aggressive after they are finally purchased by either SoftBank or DISH.

Sprint announces activation of LTE in 22 more cities
i read a good article about the difficulty rolling out LTE. One issue is these antennaes are leasing space on buildings and rooftops and towers. So in many cases they have to renegotiate with a building owner, a city etc, to put new machines in. Because the old ones aren't going anywhere they are still being used. Also every town has different building codes so if your town isn't involved one major issue is likely navigating the hurdles of the various building codes, city and state building restrictions, contract negotiations for each and every tower or building in your area. Also in places like San Francisco where i used to live it's one of the most difficult cell network markets because of both building laws and to geography. It's buildings, a giant bay in the middle, bridges, tunnels all tucked in valley's an mountains blocking signals. So apparently that's a difficult rollout. I hope they get it done because if so unlimited data will be a massive plus.
My AOL days were faster than sprints 3G.... And my AT&T 3G/4G is as fast as sprints LTE network...

I have my kit, but I am in no hurry to build it.
Just the idea of a semi-auto rifle that takes a 72-rd drum is pleasing to me. Plus, I already have the drums and magazines on hand.
When I finally get around to building a SA Soumi rifle, I'm ready. Heck, I even have the metal lathe to make the barrel bushing.
One way to determine the length of the barrel bushing is to insert a magazine within the housing, and measure the total length of the bushing resulting there from. I hope that makes sense to y'all, it does to me.
It appears that an M-1 Carbine FCG "might" work in the SA version. If so, the trigger housing can be modified as well, resulting in (4) U.S. made parts. The receiver will be the "magic" 5th U.S. part.
The bolt will have to be modified to match the FCG. The length and weight of the bolt can be reduced. The bolt was designed for full-auto fire. A semi-auto bolt will not require as much weight.

Man United opens 12-point lead in Premier LeagueThe Associated Press | February 11,2013LONDON Manchester United opened a season-high, 12-point lead in the English Premier League, defeating Everton 2-0 Sunday on goals by Ryan Giggs and Robin van Persie.
The 40-year-old Giggs beat American goalkeeper Tim Howard in the 13th minute at Old Trafford to become the only person to score in every season of the Premier League, which began in 1992-93. Van Persie scored in first-half stoppage time, his league-high 19th goal this season.
Seeking to extend its record for league titles to 20, Manchester United (21-3-2) has 65 points, while defending champion Manchester City (15-3-8) has 53 following Saturdays 3-1 loss at Southampton.
Weve got to win our games regardless of what happens with City and if we concentrate on our own games, well be OK, United manager Alex Ferguson said.
United plays Real Madrid Wednesday in the first leg of the second round of the Champions League.
I was going to make about seven changes to the game but when I saw yesterdays result, I changed that because we knew if we got a result it would put us in a fantastic position, Ferguson said.
Everton (10-4-12) is sixth with 42 points, six behind fourth-place Tottenham for the final Champions League berth.
Also Sunday, Aston Villa climbed out of the relegation zone by beating West Ham 2-1 and Christian Bentekes penalty kick in the 74th minute and Charles NZogbias goal on a free kick in the 78th. Ashley Westwood had an own goal past American goalkeeper Brad Guzan in the 87th for Aston Villa (5-12-9), which ended an eight-match winless streak and climbed out of the relegation zone.

Lionel Messi extended his Spanish league record by scoring in his 13th straight match, and Barcelona routed visiting Getafe 6-1.
Andres Iniesta passed for Alexis Sanchez for the opening goal in the sixth minute, and Messi scored in the 13th off another move started by Iniesta. Messis goal was his league-leading 35th in the league this season and 46th in all competitions. It was the 299th of his Barcelona career in all competitions.
David Villa, Cristian Tello, Iniesta and Gerard Pique scored second-galf goals for Barcelona (20-1-2). It opened a 12-point lead over second-place Atletico Madrid (16-4-2), which played later at Rayo Vallecano. Defending champion Real Madrid (14-5-4) is 16 points back.

MILAN Mario Balotelli converted an 82nd-minute penalty kick for his third goal in two games, giving AC Milan a 1-1 tie at Cagliari.
Balotelli, who scored twice in his debut last weekend following his transfer from Manchester City, scored after he was fouled by Davide Astori. Victor Ibarbo had put the hosts ahead in the 45th minute when he headed in Daniele Contis free kick.
AC Milan (12-7-5) dropped into fifth with 41 points, two behind Inter Milan (13-7-4), which beat Chievo Verona 3-1 on goals by Antonio Cassano in the second minute, Andrea Ranocchia in the 26th and Diego Milito in the 50th.

FRANKFURT, Germany Defender Pavel Krmas scored on a header off a corner kick in the 87th minute to give Freiburg a 1-0 victory over Fortuna Duesseldorf and move his team up to fifth in the Bundesliga.

Chattanooga Basketball Postgame Notes
Chattanooga at Davidson
Belk Arena – Davidson, N.C.
Saturday – Feb. 1, 2014
Head Coach Jim Foster
On Jasmine Joyner's seven blocks:
"She is a great shot-blocker. She is as good a shot-blocker as I have coached and I have coached some pretty good ones."
"She is not ordinary with that talent. She has a real instinct for it and is very disciplined. She doesn't come down. She extends straight up, which is what a really great shot blocker has to do so she doesn't get into foul trouble.
People stepping up off the bench:
"I think we have a lot of players who are capable of doing certain things very well and playing within the framework of who you are and understanding who you are. It makes a huge difference and an example of that would be Jas. She knows she is a good shot-blocker. She knows she has a good set of hands. She will catch anything you throw up at her and she plays to her strengths."
On the play of Alex Black:
"Alex is a two guard that has had to play point. Her instincts and her strengths are at the off-guard. IT took her a little while, maybe the first third of the season, to get used to playing without the ball and now she is doing a very good job. As a result, shooting percentage is going up and she is playing good basketball."
On winning the battle on the glass:
"If your offense is running the way it should and the ball is moving and we know when a shot is going to take place, we are going to get a large number of rebounds, or not, depending on how we shoot the ball. I think today was an example of that. When the ball moved, we moved."

The PowerBridge Solution for HDTV is designed specifically for wall mounted HDTV Flat Screen Plasma, Flat Panel LCD, HDTV Home Theater / Data Projectors, and Subwoofers.
If you are wall mounting your HDTV Flat Screen Plasma, Flat Panel LCD HDTV, you need the PowerBridge Solution for HDTV. Meets National Electric Code requirements for in-wall electrical wiring. Don't risk damages installing the TV power cord in the wall. PowerBridge Solution for HDTV is the most cost effective In-Wall Electrical Solution to protect expensive Home Theater HDTV equipment from surge damage and the best solution to provide clean A/C power when connected to a Power Surge/Conditioner. Allows all connected Home Theater HDTV components on the same A/C electrical circuit, reducing interference and line noise from separate household A/C circuits and outlets. PowerBridge Solution for HDTV can be installed, usually in 30 minutes, at the same time as the HDTV installation. Custom HDTV Installers throughout the country, offer PowerBridge Solution for HDTV installed at the same time as the HDTV installation, solving the issue of not wanting to see the TV power cord hanging down in front of the wall. PowerBridge Solution for HDTV saves time and money compared to having to schedule an electrician to install a standard non-protected receptacle circuit. PowerBridge Solution for HDTV can be wired to multiple receptacle outlets throughout the system or home, allowing all HDTV Audio and Video equipment to be power-protected through a single Power Surge Protection/Conditioning Console, saving hundreds of dollars in expensive multiple protection components. Designed for Safety PowerBridge Solution for HDTV was innovated with safety as a top priority, designed with a unique RECESSED POWER-INLET Wall Plate. If the Power-cord is ever unplugged from the INLET, by anyone, especially a child, there are NO contact points to touch, eliminating risk of electrical shock. PowerBridge Solution for HDTV meets NEC Compliancy, when installed with NM type wire (ROMEX®). Don't put yourself at risk; TV power cords or extension cords through the wall or ceiling, do not meet National and Local Building, Electrical and Fire Codes.
Why can't the TV power cord or an extension cord be run inside the wall?
Extension cords should never be used as a substitute for permanent wiring. Cords need ventilation to prevent heat buildup, which could cause a fire. If a fire would result, don't count on home/renters insurance to cover damage. Never use extension cords on a continuous basis, they are only temporary solutions for A/C power distribution. National Electric Code, local building and fire codes restrict the use of extension cords as permanent use. The National Electric Code (NEC) states: NEC ARTICLE 400 Flexible Cords and Cables General 400.1 Scope. This article covers general requirements, applications, and construction specifications for flexible cords and flexible cables. 400.8 Uses Not Permitted. Flexible cords and cables shall not be used for the following: (1)As a substitute for the fixed wiring of a structure (2)Where run through holes in walls, structural ceilings, suspended ceilings, dropped ceilings, or floors (3)Where run through doorways, windows, or similar openings (4)Where attached to building surfaces Exception: Flexible cord and cable shall be permitted to be attached to building surfaces in accordance with the provisions of 368.8. (5)Where concealed by walls, floors, or ceilings or located above suspended or dropped ceilings
If I just install a regular outlet behind my TV, isn't that the same as having the PowerBridge™?
Yes and No... Having a regular A/C outlet/receptacle installed behind your expensive wall mounted HDTV, will provide A/C power. However, one of the primary benefits of installing PowerBridge™ In-Wall Power Solution, is the ability to connect an external Power Surge Protector | Power Conditioner | UPS device to provide a complete safe protected Power Solution to the HDTV, Home Theater equipment. Unless you have a whole-house, main panel protection system installed, all outlets and switches in your home are un-protected from surge power and "dirty", noisy power which can reduce the life of electronics and power supplies. --------------------------------------------------------------- How does PowerBridge™ protect my HDTV and how is it installed?
PowerBridge™ is part of a A/C Protection and Power Filtering Solution. The complete system allows for the wiring connection points, as a code compliant in-wall electrical power extension, of external Power Surge Protector/Conditioner/UPS devices. PowerBridge™ design allows A/C 125v power out from the protection device through the supplied power cord that is plugged into the PowerBridge™ POWER-INLET. The back of the POWER-INLET is connected with NM (non-metallic) type UL approved wire*, (Known as Romex®, well known brand of a NM wire manufacturer) approved for in-wall, permanent wiring. Romex®, is run to the back of the POWER-OUTLET installed where the HDTV or other home theater component you want to protect. The POWER-OUTLET receptacle is recessed, so the usually large plug end of the TV power cord will not interfere with the TV mounted flush on the wall. *NM type wire/Romex®, is not included with the PowerBridge System. NM type wire/Romex®, can be purchased at most hardware or home supply stores, by the foot or in boxes 12', 25', 50' and up. --------------------------------------------------------------- Can I install this myself or do I need a professional?
PowerBridge is easy and safe to install, as there is no direct wiring connection to the electrical panel or circuit or directly hardwired branch connection from the back of another existing outlet. Installation instructions are included. We recommended professional installation if you are not comfortable cutting holes and running wiring within the walls. We also recommend checking with your local building jursidiction regarding any requirements for running NM wire in a wall/ceiling.
Easy to Install
At the same time in routing the A/V cables between the HDTV and source equipment, running NM (non-metallic) type electrical wire, also known as ROMEX®, between the POWER INLET and POWER OUTLET and making simple secure screw connections on the back of each wall plate. Kit does not include NM type wire-ROMEX® ; very inexpensive and can be purchased at most hardware and home supply stores by the foot or in 12', 25', 50' boxes, or larger reels. NOTE: Some areas, local jurisdictions, may require using metal electrical boxes and jacketed metal electrical wire. It is advised to check with your specific local building jurisdiction as to any special code requirements. Metal boxes are not included, or optional with the PowerBridge kit, however the plate will fit within metal and new-work electrical boxes. The PowerBridge™ kit comes with easy to follow instructions, with pictures, and wall cut-out template for the 2 Carlon® in-wall electrical boxes for retro-fit into the drywall. All you need is a drywall saw or sharp utility knife, and a screwdriver to install the electrical boxes. PowerBridge Solution for HDTV can be installed vertically or horizontally, to assure concealment behind the HDTV and alignment around the TV wall mount. Safe to Install
PowerBridge Solution for HDTV is designed as a plug-in electrical device to an existing grounded A/C outlet or surge protector. During installation, there is never any direct contact with electricity or live electrical circuits. NO direct wire branching of electrical wiring to, or, from the electrical circuit, back of an existing outlet or house power panel. Direct wired only between the POWER INLET and POWER OUTLET wall plates. After the wall plates are installed, the POWER OUTLET receptacle is energized by simply plugging in the supplied 36" PowerCord female end to the POWER INLET and the male end to the A/C power source, such as a surge protector or nearby existing A/C outlet. *IMPORTANT PRODUCT INFORMATION* THIS PRODUCT IS NOT TO BE HARD-WIRED DIRECTLY TO AN ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT. IT IS DESIGNED AS AN ELECTRICAL PLUG-IN DEVICE TO AN EXISTING A/C GROUNDED OUTLET ONLY. THIS PRODUCT IS RATED FOR USE WITH AN EXISTING OUTLET 15-AMP 125V GROUNDED CIRCUIT ONLY. Check with your Local Building Jurisdiction, as to permit or code requirements for installing electrical wire and outlets within a wall. This product does not have built-in electronic circuitry for, surge protection or A/C filtering. It is recommended this product be plugged into a quality surge-protector/power conditioner. If you are not skilled with running wires through walls; it is strongly recommended, a qualified installation professional should install this product.

I'm not sure if this is God's way of helping us to heal or what, but something dawned on me today and I wanted to share it with you all. Erik died on 12/18/02 and I delivered him on 12/20/02. We had been trying to get pg again for a long time, I used the OPK and discovered I was ovulating on 12/20/03 and got pg, exactly one year to the day I delivered him. Now, we're scheduled for a c-section on 8/18/04, one year and 8 months, to the day, he died. Coincidence? I'm not so sure. I feel so good about this! Maybe I'm grasping at straws, but I can't help but think for every death there is a life - thanks for listening!
Mom to:
Jonathan 10/4/95
Erik Stillborn 12/20/02
And #3 - EDD 9/11/04 - it's a BOY!!

I first came here in 2004 and found the friendliest, most compassionate and helpful people that you could find anywhere. I was concerned about my daughter who had developed Pre-E late in her pregnancy. Before it was over with she went on to develop HELLP & Sheehan's Syndrome. She also had continuing medical problems post part om. It took about a year and a half for her blood pressure to return to normal and for her adrenal gland to begin producing cortisol again. I am not going to go into detail here, it's just to long, her story can be found by searching "shadow205." There are a lot of posts and information.
What I would like to say is that since the time that I posted last about her, she has became pregnant and had a relatively uneventful pregnancy and delivery in February 2009. We thought all was well but she just never seemed to recover from that pregnancy/delivery. In March 2010 she became critically ill and was admitted to the hospital where she spent 32 days. Tests, tests and more tests, they couldn't figure out what was wrong. All of her lab work showed that something was obviously going on but the Doctors couldn't diagnose her. Fever averaged 103, HG 7, Sed Rate High Spleen, liver and one kidney enlarged. Lymph nodes enlarged and all kinds of other things. She had a bone marrow biopsy on her 31st birthday checking for Lymphoma. Thank God it was negative.
What they did come up with though was Autoimmune Disorders. My Daughter has been diagnosed with "Still's Disease" and "ANCA Associated Vascultitis." There is hardly any part of her body that has not been effected. She is currently undergoing chemotherapy infusions monthly and has to take a tons of medicines that can have serious side effects.
Is there a connection between Preeclampsia and Autoimmune disorders? I don't know, but hopefully we will know someday. I do know that my daughter was perfectly healthy until she developed Preeclampsia in 2004 and has never really been well since.

Pontifex legibus solutus?
Joseph A. Komonchak April 1, 2013 - 3:11pm
Conservatives and traditionalists need not be the only ones to raise questions about some of Pope Francis's liturgical innovations, whether it was his including women and Muslims among those whose feet he washed or in the reduction of the readings for the Easter Vigil. But shouldn't we all be concerned when they are justified by the idea that, after all, the pope is the supreme law-giver and so is not bound by Church law?
There is an old Latin legal term for this: princeps legibus solutus, which Blacks legal dictionary translates as: Released from the laws; not bound by the laws. An expression applied in the Roman civil law to the emperor. As the example given shows, it is a very dangerous principle to allow into ecclesiology. At Vatican II, when no. 22 of Lumen gentium was being discussed, Pope Paul VI proposed introducing into a sentence about the pope's relationship to the college of bishops that in deciding whether to call the bishops to a collegial act a pope was bound to the Lord alone [uni Domino devinctus]. The Doctrinal Commission refused this addition for two reasons: (1) its intent was already assured by statements about the pope's freedom and independence, meaning by this that there is no higher human authority which the Roman Pontiff has to observe; and (2) because the formula is over-simplified. For the Roman Pontiff is also bound to observe revelation itself, the basic structure of the Church, the sacraments, the definitions of previous Councils, etc.; all such things cant be counted. Formulas of this sort, using only, have to be treated with the greatest circumspection; otherwise countless difficulties arise.The Commission was pointing to elements that bind the pope in the exercise of his role. A pope is not legibus solutus. Would we not like to propose some conditions on what Pius XII's claim that the pope alone has the right to permit or establish any liturgical practice, to introduce or approve new rites, or to make any changes in them he considers necessary? Can we be content with the view that the Pope is not bound by Church law when he does something we like, but ought to be bound by Church law when he does something we don't like?
So if one wishes to applaud some of the new pope's departures from Church law, before one gets too enthusiastic, it might be well to recall that it was also a pope who not so long ago tempted people to flee to the mountains when he obtruded the Divine Mercy devotion into Eastertide (see Mk 13:14).
Commenting Guidelines
But an initiative "from below" still requires the pope's approval. So we're still stuck, no?I didn't know that Bellarmine thought that...
I think that depends on finding a Pope who is willing to have those changes made. Perhaps Francis is that Pope. The mechanics can certainly be worked out if there's agreement on the goal. Perhaps one argument would be that it would facilitate reunion with the Orthodox. Paul VI seems to have had a real worry that the bishops might attmpt to exercise some comtrol over the Pope. I assume that's what led to this note "from higher authority" which was attached to LG as an appendix:"**The following was published as an appendix to the official Latin version of the Constitution on the Church.**A preliminary note of explanation is being given to the Council Fathers from higher-authority, regarding the Modi bearing on Chapter III of the Schema de Ecclesia; the doctrine set forth in Chapter III ought to be explained and understood in accordance with the meaning and intent of this explanatory note.Preliminary Note of ExplanationThe Commission has decided to preface the assessment of the Modi with the following general observations.1. "College" is not understood in a strictly juridical sense, that is as a group of equals who entrust their power to their president, but as a stable group whose structure and authority must be learned from Revelation. For this reason, in reply to Modus 12 it is expressly said of the Twelve that the Lord set them up "as a college or stable group." Cf. also Modus 53, c.For the same reason, the words "Ordo" or "Corpus" are used throughout with reference to the College of bishops. The parallel between Peter and the rest of the Apostles on the one hand, and between the Supreme Pontiff and the bishops on the other hand, does not imply the transmission of the Apostles' extraordinary power to their successors; nor does it imply, as is obvious, equality between the head of the College and its members, but only a proportionality between the first relationship (Peter-Apostles) and the second (Pope-bishops). Thus the Commission decided to write "pari ratione, " not "eadem ratione," in n. 22. Cf. Modus 57.see LG for the rest.
As noted, the Council of Jerusalem did, in fact, overrule Peter on circumcision. Of course, that was well before Lumen Gentium, but still; the first council's authority is blessed in scripture; the other too often dismissed as a merely "pastoral"event. What, in fact, are the limits on conciliar authority? Are some ecumenical councils more authoritative than others? It strikes me that authority in the church, conciliar and papal, is pretty circular. Jesus seemed to locate it in "two or more of you joined together [Mt 18:19]," but then he also said his church stood on Peter the Rock [Mt 16:18]. Isn't the ultimate reality one of those both-and situations? A council has no legitimate power without the Pope leading it, and a Pope without the agreement of his fellow bishops and faithful is just a leader with no one to lead.
A much better example of monarchical power at work is the new roman missal. http://www.praytellblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Ruff-New-Roman-Mi... Vatican grabbed power, changed the rules, the pope arbitrarily decided that at Mass we would no longer hear that Christ died for all (and many other changes), and everybody caved in. He didn't even respect the rules of the English language! It seems that most people are content to let an absolute monarch make arbitrary decisions, change or ignore laws according to his personal preferences, and impose that on everyone. The new missal is the proof that the pope can do whatever he wants. I don't see any way out as long as the people's will is not there.
Father Komonchak: That argument begs the question by assuming exactly what you are trying to demonstrate, namely, that all members of the church are bound by Papal law in all cases.I could use the same logic to make the following assertion:If Congress makes a law for the US, and Joe is a member (citizen) of the US, then Joe is bound by the law.This statement is not always true (for a lot of reasons). For starters (and consistent with the assumption in your argument) it assumes that all US citizens are bound by Congressional enactment in all cases. In other words, both assume too much concerning the subject of the Legislator's authority.Consider: Congress cannot legislate using the police power on persons living in the states. So if the law concerned the police power and Joe was a citizen of New York, then Joe would not be bound by it. But if Joe's domicile is the District of Columbia, then the law binds.So it is with Papal law. There are limits to its authority. One of those limits is that the Pope is not bound by it. There are other limits, and these limits are among the many reasons why I hesitate to say that the Pope is an absolute monarch, even though his own laws do not bind him.
Mr. Madrid: Distinguo: If Congress passes a valid law, I am bound by it. If Congress passes an invalid law, I am not bound by it.Isn't the parallel this: If Congress passes a valid law, members of Congress are bound by it?I would like to hear about those "other limits" that lead you to say that the pope is not an absolute monarch, "absolute," of course, having the same meaning as in the phrase "legibus solutus," not bound by the laws.
Isnt the parallel this: If Congress passes a valid law, members of Congress are bound by it?I don't think that's parallel. It requires a majority of both Houses plus the concurrence of the President to enact a law. It is a group action. Exempting one person from n law would require a similar group action. One member of the group couldn't exempt him/herself from the law without actionl by the others.Church law is enacted by the Pope alone, even if it is recommended to him by a dicastery, ecumenical council, etc. As the sole lawgiver, he can withdraw the law entirely or excuse himself or a defined group of people from complying with it - entirely by himself.
There are legal theorists who believe that the notion of sovereignty that underlies the teaching of Vatican II about papal jurisdictional and magisterial authority owes more to Hobbes et al. than to the great canonical theorists of the Middle Ages.Hobbes would certainly be happy wih a sole lawgiver. If I recall correctly, Occam thought that a council could depose a Pope and Gratian (and others) thought it required reception by the faithful for a Papal law to be valid. If most people ignored it, it wasn't binding on anyone. But those views didn't get accepted.
'As the sole lawgiver,. . . 'Isn't this the crux of the issue? Is the Pope the sole lawgiver or not? Saying that "if he is, then the rest of us are in a very vulnerable position" does nothing to counter the possibility that the statement "He is the sole lawgiver" is true. ALL absolute monarchs have vulnerable subjects, almost by definition.
Isnt this the crux of the issue? Is the Pope the sole lawgiver or not? The balance of power between the Pope and ecumenical councils was debated for a long time, going back at least as far as Occam (of the razor). The people who wanted more power for councils lost out.
Mr. Hayes: The parallel holds. That there is more than one person involved in legislation in the U.S. does not alter the case: a law valid for U.S. citizens applies to the law-makers. I do not say that the Pope may not change a law, but that until it is changed by formal act, the pope is bound by it.Before the first codification of Church law early in the twentieth century, the authoritative source was the Corpus Iuris Canonici, a collection of all sorts of laws emanating from many different sources, local or provincial councils, ecumenical councils, papal edicts, etc. A major change was effected when it was decided to replace the somewhat hodge-podge corpus of laws with a properly modern, rationally organized, Code of Canon Law, which would be promulgated by the sole legislator for the whole Church, the Pope. The model for this new way of conceiving law, law-giving, and indeed the Church was the Napoleonic Code which "rationalized," that is, modernized, law in France. Behind it was the same kind of "reason" that led France to decimalize the calendar and to abolish the provinces. [Why, we might ask, are Alaska and Rhode Island both states? And how do Wyoming and California both get to have two Senators? It's irrational, no?] There is great irony in the fact that while Rome expressed grave reservations about the centralized and omni-competent state as it was developing in the 19th and 20th centuries, it adopted that very model in re-organizing itself. There are legal theorists who believe that the notion of sovereignty that underlies the teaching of Vatican II about papal jurisdictional and magisterial authority owes more to Hobbes et al. than to the great canonical theorists of the Middle Ages.
"There are legal theorists who believe that the notion of sovereignty that underlies the teaching of Vatican II about papal jurisdictional and magisterial authority owes more to Hobbes et al. than to the great canonical theorists of the Middle Ages."Correction: This should have read: "of Vatican I." Vatican II ratified the earlier council's teaching, even while trying to bring it into a more adequate ecclesiological vision.
Quoting Vatican I: (Chapter 3 of Session 4)8. Since the Roman pontiff, by the divine right of the apostolic primacy, governs the whole church, we likewise teach and declare thathe is the supreme judge of the faithful [52] , and thatin all cases which fall under ecclesiastical jurisdiction recourse may be had to his judgment [53] .The sentence of the apostolic see (than which there is no higher authority) is not subject to revision by anyone,nor may anyone lawfully pass judgment thereupon [54] . And sothey stray from the genuine path of truth who maintain that it is lawful to appeal from the judgments of the Roman pontiffs to an ecumenical council as if this were an authority superior to the Roman pontiff.So, then,if anyone says thatthe Roman pontiff has merely an office of supervision and guidance, andnot the full and supreme power of jurisdiction over the whole church, and thisnot only in matters offaith and morals, but also in those which concern thediscipline and government of the church dispersed throughout the whole world; or thathe has only the principal part, but not the absolute fullness, of this supreme power; or thatthis power of his is not ordinary and immediate both over all and each of the churches and over all and each of the pastors and faithful:let him be anathema.
John, can't you let this die the death of oblivion?
Some theologians of the last generation, e.g., Yves Congar and George Tavard, raised the question whether the teaching on the role of the pope in the Church can be dissociated from the modern notion of sovereignty in terms of which Vatican I seems to have stated that role. This would require something similar to the dissociation of the doctrine of the real presence of Christ in the eucharist from the particular metaphysical scheme in terms of which it is often articulated and defended. Vatican I and, in many places, Vatican II also worked with a universalist ecclesiology, that is, a view that focuses on the so-called "universal Church" and has a strong tendency to see particular or local Churches as simple administrative sub-divisions of the BIG thing, which alone really deserves the name "Church". You know the schema, in what is only a slight caricature: The Church is an international religious corporation with central headquarters in Rome, branch offices (called dioceses) in many cities, and retail shops (called parishes). This is the Church whose administrative efficiency was praised in the 1950's by an independent group which placed the RC Church in second place, behind (if I remember correctly) only General Motors. This because the pope gave orders which were obeyed by the bishops whose orders were obeyed by the priests whose orders were obeyed by the laity. Times have changed, and not just for General Motors.
The Church is an international religious corporation with central headquarters in Rome, branch offices (called dioceses) in many cities, and retail shops (called parishes).Back in 2004 when he archdiocese here (Boston) closed 65 churches by fiat, the image that came to my mind was McDonald's deciding which stores it could close while still selling as many Big Macs as before. The idea was that if your parsh was suppressed, you should just find another parish nearby and they would be happy to take you in. the archdiocese seemed to think of parishoners as individuals rather than as existing communities that might want to stay together.Learning from the uproar that caused, the current planning for future parish consolidation is taking a much different direction, arrived at after meetings with pastors and parish members. The idea this time is to combine groups of about three parishes into a single community with a single pastor (with several parochial vicars) and a single finance committee - continuing, at least initially, to provide Masses and other activities in all of the existing churches.I think the unemphasized expectation is that, in future years as the number of available priests declines and expenses rise, each multi-parish community will make its own decision as to whether it needs all of the existing church buildings and other property. But even if, in the long term, it consolidates to a single church building instead of three, the decision on selling off some church buildings and other property will be made within the community and the community will stay together. So it's no longer the McDonald's analogy. Change is possible.
"I think the unemphasized expectation is that, in future years as the number of available priests declines and expenses rise, each multi-parish community will make its own decision as to whether it needs all of the existing church buildings and other property. But even if, in the long term, it consolidates to a single church building instead of three, the decision on selling off some church buildings and other property will be made within the community and the community will stay together."John, forgive me, but I'm skeptical that the archdiocese, which actually owns the property, would let a local community decide whether to sell any of the archdiocese's property. (Or, what is probably a more likely scenario, that the archdiocese would let a local community prevent the sale of archdiocesan property). That is not to say that there are more pastoral or less pastoral ways to go about it. But too much local control leads to situations like that church up your way that has been 'occupied' for seven years or some such.
McDonald's is an interesting analogy. McDonald's stores are mostly owned by independent franchisees. They have to agree to the products, the branding, the quality standards and undoubtedly all sorts of other things as conditions of being granted the franchises, but there is also a fair bit of local control for such things as hiring and firing, promotions, some regionalization of products, and so on. McDonald's corporate, I'm told, makes a big point of listening to their franchise owners. Still, in terms of "customer experience", I daresay there is more variation from one Catholic parish to another than from one McDonald's franchise to another. McDonald's values brand consistency. Catholics, apparently, don't as much.
John, forgive me, but Im skeptical that the archdiocese, which actually owns the property, would let a local community decide whether to sell any of the archdioceses property.I was skipping over the question of who would get the sale proceeds. I think the initial reason that the community would feel the need to close some church buildings would be to stop spending money on monthly operating costs they can no longer afford - even if all of the sale proceeds went to the archdiocese. In reality, I suspect a deal could be worked out with the archdiocese by which it would use some of the sale proceeds to maintain the surplus buildings until sold, pay for some necessary improvements to the church building(s) to remain in use, and pay off some or all of any amounts owed by the parish to the archdiocese. Of course, you are right that the archdiocese would have to agree to the sale and (here) would want to manage the sale itself, but I think they would be happy to sell any church real estate a cluster said it didn't need. Since the idea is that the pastor and the parochial vicars would all live at one location, the first issue would be whether to sell the unused rectories even while the churches continue in use.
Here at the Pontifical Biblical Institute of Jerusalem, today in the intro the presider said: "Today we celebrate the second Sunday of Easter, that is, the first Sunday after Easter Sunday. We celebrate the resurrection. It is also, in some form, the celebration of Divine Mercy." I wonder what reservations were hidden under that clumsy wording, "in some form"!(Without this thread I would not have noticed, because I would not have heard the capitalization of divine mercy.)
Francis seemed to welcome it in his homily today"Today we are celebrating the Second Sunday of Easter, also known as Divine Mercy Sunday. What a beautiful truth of faith this is for our lives: the mercy of God! Gods love for us is so great, so deep; it is an unfailing love, one which always takes us by the hand and supports us, lifts us up and leads us on....In my own life, I have so often seen Gods merciful countenance, his patience; I have also seen so many people find the courage to enter the wounds of Jesus by saying to him: Lord, I am here, accept my poverty, hide my sin in your wounds, wash it away with your blood. And I have always seen that God did just this he accepted them, consoled them, cleansed them, loved them.Dear brothers and sisters, let us be enveloped by the mercy of God; let us trust in his patience, which always gives us more time. Let us find the courage to return to his house, to dwell in his loving wounds, allowing ourselves be loved by him and to encounter his mercy in the sacraments. We will feel his tenderness, so beautiful, we will feel his embrace, and we too will become more capable of mercy, patience, forgiveness and love."After the Mass, from the Loggia of the Archbasilica, the Holy Father greeted the faithful gathered outside the church, and offered them his blessing: Brother and sisters:Buona sera! I thank you so much for your company in today's Mass. Thank you so much! I ask you to pray for me. I need it. Don't forget this. Thanks to all of you! And let us all go forward together, the people and the Bishop, all together, going forward always in the joy of the Resurrection of Jesus. He is always at our side. May God bless you! (He blessed the people.)Many thanks! See you soon. http://en.radiovaticana.va/news/2013/04/07/pope:_have_the_courage_to_ret...
For some reason this thread reminded me of conversation between Frederick Copleston and Bertrand Russell - a lot of time spent discerning the point to be discussed. If the thread is still alive, Fr. Komonchak, I would appreciate your suggestions on readings in church history that would help clarify the discussion on Papal authority, its reaches and limits.

Goose Creek High School football coaches likely aren't putting tons of stock in a preseason victory but one thing was obvious after last week's scrimmage with county rival Berkeley.
The improvement from scrimmage one to scrimmage two was dramatic.
The Gators pounded the hapless Stags 61-0, five days after coming out on the losing end against North Augusta.
"I hope the film shows that (we improved that much)," Gators defensive coordinator Chris Candor said. "I hope I see our players reading our keys, playing the run when it's a run and dropping into pass coverage when it's a pass play, and not doing what we did in the first scrimmage, which was playing the pass versus the run and the run vs. the pass."
Against North Augusta, Goose Creek was particularly vulnerable to the pass and gave up huge chunks of yardage on a handful of plays. But against Berkeley, the Gators picked off four passes, recovered a fumble and blocked two punts. Goose Creek led 34-0 less than 14 minutes into the game.
"North Augusta is a Class AAAA power," Candor said. "They go deep in the playoffs every year… North Augusta is game ready and Berkeley was definitely not game ready."
Gators defensive back Omar McRae was one of four players to score a pair of touchdowns for the Gators. He returned an interception 35 yards for a score in the first quarter and then recovered a blocked punt for a touchdown.
"He's a big play guy, which we know," Gators coach Chuck Reedy said of McRae, who had 11 interceptions in 2012.
Gators quarterback Dantez Bennamon tossed a pair of touchdown passes to Jordan Barnes and fullback Darin McNeal added pair of touchdown runs. Backup quarterback Dominique Jefferson also scored twice in the second half, running in from 2 and 31 yards.
Fullback Evan McField tacked on a single touchdown and kicker Alex Jacobus was 7 of 8 on extra points.
The Gators will tangle with Berkeley again in a two-quarter scrimmage to close out the annual Sertoma Classic on Friday at The Citadel.
Goose Creek opens the season Aug. 30 at Ashley Ridge.

I need the most help with:
Motivation and consistency. I have been working on changing my life, but I need to keep remind myself that this journey is not over yet. I need to keep pushing. I have been doing this for four years now and I have a cycle. I lose a lot of weight winter - spring and then gain it back over the summer- fall. I prioritize socialization and dating over my health. I deserve better than that. I need help reminding myself that above all else, I need to maintain my nutrition and fitness, if not just for my physical health then for my mental health and happiness.
Additional Info:
I'm 26 years old and I was obese for most of my life. I started this journey in January 2010 at 226 lbs (260-270 was my highest weight ever) and I lost 67 lbs by October 2010. However, within the past few years I have been wavering between 154 and 185 lbs. I ended my first real relationship last fall, and gained back a lot of weight. I lost myself in someone else. I didn't make working out a priority and I adapted to someone else's diet, not my own. I had a similar issue this summer and made basically the same mistakes (prioritizing a social life over my health and making really poor food choices). So now here I am, back at 180+ lbs, determined to make this yo-yoing stop. This rollercoaster has been fun, but I learned two things. #1 the down part is definitely wayyy more fun than the up part, and #2 I'm starting to get nauseous, so it's time to get off. I need to strengthen my core, spiritually, mentally and physically. I'm so proud of my progress, but I know I still have a long way to go and that the most difficult part of the journey is yet to come.
I could not have done any of this without the support of my wonderful friends here on PT. You guys are amazing! Thank you for everything you have done for me!

Local firefighters are arming kids with the tools they need to make it through a life threatening situation as part of National Fire Prevention Week.
Kids learn the importance of escaping a fire from those who know best: firefighters.
"Because fire might be on your clothes, you need to just stop drop and roll, " said Georgia.
Officials use a fire alarm as a tool to keep kids sharp and on their toes..
They're shown how a fire alarm works and the steps to take after it beeps. The beeping sound you hear when an alarm goes off is when you should remember to get outside.
Kids go through the motions of reacting to a fire which can happen at anytime, especially when they're sleeping.
After lying down, they get up on their hands and knees, test a door to make sure it's not hot and they have a way to escape the room.Then they crawl to safety and call 9-1-1 to get help.
Deputy Fire Marshall Raymond Olson has a passion that's second nature.
"We're here to make a difference and help them to get through what they need to get through," said Olson.
I asked 1st grader Jason, "So now when you see firefighters, what do you think?"
He said, "I think they're a great help to everyone in the universe."
Kids learn a lesson that could save their lives and those around them.
The National Fire Protection Association says last year one person died almost every three hours from a fire.

Dear Editor:
Since when does the profit motive take precedence over the public good?
We residents of the Del Webb Community in Summerville, an age 55 and over community of over 500 homes (with plans for 1,000) are in dire need of a local hospital facility.
The legal squabbling of Trident vs. Roper has stalemated any chance of a hospital being built by Roper on land they own at Carnes Crossing, Route 17A at State Road 176. It is our contention having heard presentations by representatives of both that the main reason for Trident's blockage of Roper's plans is competition between for-profit health care organizations.
While Trident hangs up construction of the hospital, we seniors and the children of three schools operating currently in Cane Bay must travel distances to obtain emergency care. Serious conditions of heart attack and stroke, sports accidents and other immediate attention needs which need to be timely attended to save lives is sorely lacking.
We are advised that even if Trident loses its case against Roper Construction, we will not see a hospital facility built and operational for five years at least. This is totally unconscionable and an absolute shame on the legal, political and social levels here in the Lowcountry and especially in Berkeley County, which has no such facility.
It has been said that when the people speak somebody in power must listen. Hear us!
Arnold B. Rovner CLU, ChFC

Jon Jones targets October UFC return against Alexander Gustafsson - MMAmania.com
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) light heavyweight titleholder Jon Jones has apparently decided to not rush back to the Octagon, eyeing a return to mixed martial arts (MMA) competition this fall against Swedish sensation Alexander Gustafsson.
Jones and Gustafsson have crossed paths several times in recent weeks, sending messages to each other on Twitter and coming face-to-face in Russia for a staredown.
While the 205-pound match up has yet to be formally announced, Gustafsson told MMA Fighting last week that he expects a title shot to be offered "soon."
That offer has yet to come through, but according to a report by Ariel Helwani on Tuesday's (June 11, 2013) edition of FUEL TV's "UFC Tonight," Jones' injured toe is healing at a steady pace and he would like to put his belt on the line for a record-breaking sixth time against "The Mauler."
