From Priest who claimed abuse taking a leave:
"The Bothell priest who quit after announcing he was molested by a priest as a child will be taking a leave of absence instead and using that time to get a complete health evaluation.
According to a letter Wednesday by the Rev. Lawrence Minder to the parishioners of St. Brendan Catholic Church, the Seattle Archdiocese has granted him a temporary leave of absence rather than accepting the resignation he had offered."

Jennings Will Lose in Late October
That's when you'll see it anyway...
From He's no longer in 'Jeopardy!': South Florida Sun-Sentinel:
"So he's mortal after all: Ken Jennings, arguably the most famous game show contestant since Charles Van Doren, ended his record run on 'Jeopardy!' during a taping Wednesday.
Jennings' loss was reported by TV Week, a respected industry trade publication, which said he ended his run with total winnings of 'around $2.5 million in cash and prizes,' or roughly double his total when 'Jeopardy!' wrapped its season in July.
The show tapes a couple of months in advance of airing, and the magazine reported that Jennings had lost his 75th game. Because the program's fall season began Monday, that means his final show will likely air the last week in October."

Pray for the Ongoing Victims of H. Frances
I visited with a former student yesterday in Palm Beach Gardens,FL. He and many around him still have no electrical power or phones. This almost a week since the power went off last Friday. His area was hit harshly, although you can drive a few miles away and it appears nothing happened.
Now the beleagered state of Florida braces for yet a third major huricane that may in the end be the worst, Ivan.
Yet in the midst of it all here in South Florida the weather is beautiful and as idylic as one could imagine (for those of us who do have power and are by the beach).

Archbishop Burke Changes Stance
From Archbishop announces new stance:
"Archbishop Raymond Burke, who sparked a national debate on denying Holy Communion to abortion rights candidates, has given an opening to Catholics in his archdiocese who vote for such politicians.
In June, Burke said Catholics cannot vote for candidates or policies in support of abortion and be worthy to receive Communion.
He now says Catholics can at times vote for those who favor abortion rights without committing a grave sin or having to go to confession.
In clarifying his stance this week, Burke said he believes Catholics could vote for a politician who supports abortion rights as long as that's not the reason they are voting for the candidate. Catholic voters also must believe the candidate's stance on other moral issues outweighs the abortion rights stance."
