I received some of this for my birthday.

18 Year Old Balsamic Vinegar from OlivTastingRoom–it was corked!– from my older daughters, who evidently are acquiring some very refined (and expensive) tastes. (Good thing Miss P. #1 works for an evil multi-national corporation.) Flaky back story (wine is evil!) but truly the best-tasting balsamic vinegar I’ve ever ever consumed

Last spring I had the good fortune to attend a presentation by Ela Milewska from the National Initiative on Adolescent Catechesis.  I’m not what people think of as a “youth minister”, because for the last several years I’ve been teaching 5th grade

Charter of Secularism proposed for QuebecPosted onAugust 20, 2012by Foolishness From my story published today in the Catholic Register  OTTAWA – A religious freedom expert warns the Parti Quebecois leader’s proposed Charter of Secularism should the PQ win Quebec’s provincial election Sept. 4 would violate the Charter and push many religious believers out of public service.“Religions in Quebec have rights and one of these rights is not to be forced out of the public sphere by the beliefs of atheism and agnosticism dominating the public,” said Iain Benson, a constitutional lawyer and international religious freedom expert.Benson said he was “startled” by PQ Leader Pauline Marois’ proposed Charter of Secularism that would prohibit government employees from wearing religious symbols such as hijabs, kirpans (ceremonial daggers required by baptized Sikhs), turbans and kippahs (or yarmulke, the skullcap worn by Jewish men).

Of things canicular and stellar, haedine and sabine

Image 12_08_21_fons_bandusiae-235x300.jpg

We are in “the dog days of summer”.This phrase, for what is supposed to be the hottest part of the summer, believed by the ancients to be a time of bad omens, stems from the name of the bright star seen well at this time of year, Sirius (from Greek seirios, “blazing, scorching”). Sirius is called the “Dog Star”, because it is part of the canine constellation, Canis Major, which follows Orion the Hunter up into the sky at this time of year in the Northern Hemisphere.

Disobeying a Bishop

Perhaps I have led a sheltered life but I seem to have escaped the ravages of the various persecutions that afflict the Church. I continue to blithely go my own way after communion and nary a person has stepped in to enforce my behavior.
