Hello Sister, I'm the anon who keeps asking if you could pray for my education. Something unfortunate happened that made me miss my exam, but it was due to me being lazy and not double checking. I don't know if they will allow me to redo it. I am going to enter my second semester, I want feel motivated to study. I have been feeling numb for years, and it's been months since I prayed to God. I don't know how to go back to Him. I wish I had a Catholic or Christian friends so we can talk about this. I just feel lost, numb, and apathetic. If you can dear Sister, please pray for me. I want to be good and righteous. If God gave you message in my prayer request, can you please tell me what it is. I desperately need the Holy Spirit in my deeply sinful life. Thank you for listening Sister, God bless you

--Sister M

Hi Sister M,

I will pray for you! I can tell you that no matter what happens, no matter how much you fail in life or sin, God isn’t going to abandon you and stop loving you. He’s not hiding in a secret place until you get your life in order. God is with you, always. As like the Prodigal Son, God waits until you turn to Him so He can spread His loving arms out to bring you home. You don’t need to be perfect in order to go back to Him. A simple prayer is all you need to start. Speak to Him as you would a dear friend. He loves you more than you can ever imagine and He waits so patiently for you. If you are Catholic, remember the Sacrament of confession is always there for you and is a great blessing.

I suggest as a student, to keep a picture of the Holy Family with you. It can be a bookmark or even your phone lock screen, or a little picture to carry around in your wallet. Whenever you feel tempted to sin, take the picture out. To flood our human senses with holy things can help us out of temptation.

Other examples to “flood the senses” are, listening to soft Gregorian chant with your headphones, taste the consecrated Eucharist and wine at Mass, read one verse from the Bible, smell beautiful incense or a scented candle, touch beads of the Rosary or pages of your favorite Bible, read about the lives of the saints, and forms of prayer. The Mass is the highest form of prayer. The Rosary is a powerful prayer that has even converted a high Satanic priest; it helps focus our mind away from sin and onto the lives of Jesus with His mother, Mary. The Divine Mercy Chaplet kept the world from being destroyed by the wrath of an Angel. Blessed bells by Catholic priests have been excellent during exorcisms to expel demons because of their beauty and holy sounds. There is also Relevant Radio to listen to 24/7. EWTN is great for watching shows, masses, prayers.. highly recommend Mother Angelica Live if you’ve never seen it. Bishop Robert Barron with his Word On Fire is great to jump into on his website or binge watch on YouTube. Volunteering at your local church can be a great benefit for all.

Some teachers are kind enough for second chances, other ones are more strict. All you can do is ask. They may surprise you, offer you a different option, or make you learn the hard way. Pray for them, okay?

The Holy Spirit lives in you and He will help guide you. Your body is a temple for the Holy Spirit. Remember this. Take care of your body, especially going through the stresses of student life. Eat healthy, exercise, drink water, treat your body kindly with respect. What you carry is a special gift, even in your bad days.

For motivation, look to the saints. Each one lived a unique kind of life that they lived to get to Heaven. Some were students too. You may be able to find a favorite saint or two to model after. Don’t forget your guardian angel. They never leave your side and are waiting for you to pray to ask for their help. He can guide you too and help you, especially when friends are not available. You can be good and righteous.

“But now thus says the LORD, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.”

- Isaiah 43:1

‘FOLLIES’ TRIVIA

Sidney Guilaroff, Lucille Ball’s hair dresser, who takes responsibility for her famous ‘golden red’ for this movie, becoming her trademark color.

Although they appear in different segments, this is the only feature film collaboration between “I Love Lucy co-stars" Lucille Ball and William Frawley. Coincidently, Frawley's character in this film shares a striking similarity with his iconic character of Fred Mertz on “I Love Lucy.” In this film he plays a money-hungry curmudgeon of a landlord, much like the show. In the above photo, he appears with director Minnelli and co-star Brice. 

The horse ridden by Lucille Ball is the Lone Ranger's Silver!

Lucille Ball was actually fired by Ziegfeld from his road company production of Rio Rita in the 1930s.

In February 1956, Lucy and Desi appeared on “MGM Parade” to promote their MGM film Forever Darling. The show also included footage of Lena Horne singing from Ziegfeld Follies. 

Lucy also played a showgirl in pink in “Lucy Gets Into Pictures” (ILL S4;E19) aired on February 21, 1955. The scene was inspired by Ziegfeld’s legendary stage shows featuring beautiful women wearing elaborate costumes navigating long staircases. To solidify the comparison, Ricky says he is going to a meeting with Mr. Minnelli. Vincente Minnelli was one of the directors of Ziegfeld Follies. 

Lucy Ricardo had previously cavorted around in a lampshade in the manner of a Ziegfeld girl in both the unaired pilot and “The Audition” (S1;E6).

Ziegfeld Follies includes a sketch for Red Skelton called “When Television Comes” aka “Guzzler’s Gin” in which a (future) television spokesman gets increasingly sloshed on his product. This sketch was an obvious influence on Lucy’s Vitameatavegamin routine in “Lucy Does a TV Commercial” (ILL S1;E30) aired on May 5, 1952. 

Ziegfeld Girl Eve Whitney appeared on “I Love Lucy” episode “The Charm School” (ILL S3;E15). She used her own name for the character.  

The Telegraph Boy in "A Sweepstakes Ticket" Arthur Walsh - appeared on “I Love Lucy” in “Lucy Has Her Eyes Examined” (ILL S3;E11) as Arthur ‘King Cat’ Walsh. He teaches Lucy how to jitterbug. 

The first Judge in the “Pay the Two Dollars” James Crehan also played the Police Detective on “I Love Lucy in “The Great Train Robbery” (ILL S5;E5) first aired on October 31, 1955.

Porky, a voice on the telephone in “Number Please” Peter Lawford, played “Password” against Lucille Ball on September 24, 1964.  At the time, Lawford was married to President Kennedy’s sister, Patricia. On November 26, 1968, Ball was a guest on “The Tonight Show” when Peter Lawford was sitting in for Johnny Carson.

Chorus Boy Bert May appeared as a solo dancer on “The Lucy Show” in “Lucy and Tennessee Ernie Ford” (TLS S5;E21) in February 1967. 

In the dressing room, Lucy jokes with Fanny Brice, one of the funniest women in showbusiness.  This was the only time Ball and Brice collaborated and was Brice’s last film. 

Ziegfeld’s follies began on Broadway, so it was appropriate that the show featured past and future Broadway musical stars:

Lucille Ball ~ Wildcat (1960)

Carol Haney ~ The Pajama Game (1954)

Tommy Rall ~ Call Me Madame (1950)

Fanny Brice ~ The Ziegfeld Follies 

Marion Bell ~ Brigadoon (1947)

Victor Moore ~ Anything Goes (1934)

There was a lot of material that was not filmed, but written and cast. Some of the original skits would have added “Lucy” performers Mickey Rooney, Ann Sothern, and Van Johnson to the cast.

NOTES: Two days before the show closed on Broadway. Good amount of closeups and good quality filmed from the mid-mezzanine; there is a railing issue for a while in Act 1 but the taper improves. 'Me', 'Gaston' and 'Be Our Guest' are all predominantly missing and recording stopped for some time after 'Gaston', which created a little jump in the timeline to where Maurice gets thrown out of the tavern. Still a nice video with great closeups of the last Broadway cast.

Robert Louis Balfour Stevenson (* 13. November 1850 in Edinburgh; † 3. Dezember 1894 in Vailima nahe Apia, Samoa) war ein schottischer Schriftsteller des viktorianischen Zeitalters. Stevenson litt an Tuberkulose und wurde nur 44 Jahre alt; jedoch hinterließ er ein umfangreiches Werk von Reiseerzählungen, Abenteuerliteratur und historischen Romanen sowie Lyrik und Essays. 

Bekannt geworden sind vor allem der Jugendbuchklassiker Die Schatzinsel und die Schauernovelle Der seltsame Fall des Dr. Jekyll und Mr. Hyde, die sich dem Phänomen der Persönlichkeitsspaltung widmet und als psychologischer Horrorroman gelesen werden kann. Einige Romane sind heute noch populär und haben als Vorlagen für zahlreiche Verfilmungen gedient.

Jim Hawkins und der Schatz, Illustration von George Roux

Die Schatzinsel, englischer Originaltitel Treasure Island, ist der bekannteste Roman des schottischen Autors Robert Louis Stevenson. Er erzählt von der hindernisreichen Suche nach einem vergrabenen Piratenschatz – einem beliebten Thema solcher Abenteuerromane – und wurde vor allem als Jugendbuch, aber auch durch seine inzwischen über zwanzig Verfilmungen populär.

Erste Skizzen und Überlegungen zur Schatzinsel verfasste Stevenson in Davos, Schweiz. Während seines Kuraufenthaltes 1880/1881 hatte er dazu genügend Zeit. Im darauffolgenden Sommer, während einer Schlechtwetterperiode im schottischen Braemar, litt Stevenson an einer starken Erkältung, musste seine Wanderungen aufgeben und beschäftigte sich stattdessen mit seinem Stiefsohn Lloyd Osbourne. Er half ihm beim Malen: „Bei dieser Gelegenheit fertigte ich die Landkarte einer Insel an. […] Die Gestalt dieser Insel befruchtete meine Phantasie außerordentlich. Da waren Hafenplätze, die mich entzückten wie Sonette, und im Bewußtsein einer Schicksalsbestimmung nannte ich mein Erzeugnis ‚Die Schatzinsel‘.“ So lieferte die Zeichnung einer Schatzkarte die Inspiration für Stevensons ersten Roman, den er für den kleinen Lloyd schrieb und diesem auch widmete.

Die erste Verfilmung stammt aus dem Jahre 1912.

Der seltsame Fall des Dr. Jekyll und Mr. Hyde (Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde) ist eine Novelle des schottischenSchriftstellers Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894) aus dem Jahr 1886. Sie ist eine der berühmtesten Ausformungen des Doppelgängermotivs in der Weltliteratur.

Dr. Henry Jekyll ist ein angesehener Mensch, eine der Stützen der Gesellschaft, im Beruf äußerst erfolgreich, in seiner Tugendhaftigkeit nach außen hin vorbildlich und in seinen fortschrittlichen Bestrebungen ein Muster christlicher Nächstenliebe. Allerdings unterdrückt er seine Neigung zur Lebenslust, was zu der zugespitzten Gestalt des Mr. Edward Hyde führt, einer alternativen Persönlichkeit von Dr. Jekyll. Sie ermöglicht es ihm, seinen verbotenen Trieben freien Lauf zu lassen, sie gar zu genießen. Gleichzeitig verdrängt der Wissenschaftler seine Untaten, indem er als Jekyll gelegentlich die Verbrechen des Mr. Hyde wieder gutzumachen versucht. Er verteidigt sich mit dem Gedanken, dass Jekyll durch Hydes Taten nicht besudelt werden könne. Erst nach dem Mord zerreißt der Schleier des Selbstbetruges vor seinen Augen. Dennoch: Bis zuletzt weigert sich Jekyll, zu akzeptieren, dass er für seine Taten ganz alleine verantwortlich ist. Als Hydes Eigenwilligkeit ihn in ernste Schwierigkeiten bringt, ist jede frühere Gemeinsamkeit zwischen den beiden Männern bedeutungslos geworden.

Stevenson zeigt somit die Folgen erzwungener Verdrängung nicht gesellschaftskonformer Wünsche und kritisiert damit die Konventionen des Viktorianischen Zeitalters (1837–1901). Jekyll selbst klagt über den Mangel an Nervenkitzel, persönliche Freiheit und die strenge Selbsteinschränkung, die man von ihm fordert. Zugleich warnt die Erzählung vor den Folgen einer extrem empathielosen Menschennatur; ein sadistischer Psychopath ohne Selbstbeherrschung. Sie dringt in die Tiefe der menschlichen Seele und in die Tiefe der bürgerlichen Moralauffassungen vor, weshalb von vielen Interpreten auch Parallelen zur Psychoanalyse Sigmund Freuds gezogen werden: Das Ich findet keine stabile Mitte zwischen Es (Mr. Hyde) und Über-Ich (Dr. Jekyll). Die Analytische Psychologie in der Tradition Carl Gustav Jungs sieht in den „beiden“ Titelfiguren Ausprägungen der Archetypen der Persona und des Schattens. Häufig wird Hyde mit affenartig-primitiven Gesichtszügen ausgestattet. Dies lässt sich aus der zu dieser Zeit bereits heftig diskutierten Behauptung erklären, der Mensch stamme vom Affen ab, was populärwissenschaftlich und falsch in Charles Darwins 1859 veröffentlichtes Buch Über die Entstehung der Arten hineininterpretiert wurde. Als Hyde entwickelt sich Henry Jekyll in der Evolutionsgeschichte zurück und wird von Trieben, nicht von Intelligenz gesteuert. Im Roman scheint Mr. Hydes Anblick die schlimmsten Seiten der Umstehenden zu aktivieren; selbst wenn er nichts tut, sein Anblick ist ein Angriff auf die feste Psyche.

Es gibt schließlich auch einen Hinweis auf die Wirkung von Drogen: Dr. Jekyll experimentiert zunächst nur mit dem Trank, wird dann aber abhängig von ihm. Die Entfremdung von seinen Freunden erinnert deutlich an die eines Drogenabhängigen. Tatsächlich stirbt Dr. Jekyll in gewissem Sinne an der selbstentwickelten Droge, weil diese ausgeht und Mr. Hyde sich in Dr. Jekylls Körper unwiderruflich einnistet.

Taxonomic vandals and name thieves - the fake scientists in herpetology.

Travers Burhan Tjaturadi Nicolas Vidal S. P. Vijayakumar Philipp Wagner Van Wallach Perry L. Wood Jr Catharine E. Wüster Wolfgang Wüster Hussam Zaher Alexander Zorrilla Notes: 1/ All the above persons are listed as authors of papers that have engaged in the nefarious practice of taxonomic vandalism. 2/ Taxonomic vandalism is the illegal renaming of species, genera or family already named by other scientists and then, knowing these taxa have been properly named prior, promoting the illegal new names instead of the correct older names, along with simultaneously improperly trying to suppress or hide the correct legal names from others. 4/ Taxonomic vandalism is in breach of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, highly dishonest and antiscience. 5/ These acts of Taxonomic Vandalism have been mainly done at the instigation of serial law-breaker and certified animal abuser, Wolfgang Wüster of Wales. They are typically justified by the fake scientists/name thieves on the basis of a blog document called “Kaiser et al.” in fact written by Wüster himself. 6/ Taxonomic vandalism wastes time and money of legitimate scientists who have to fix the mess and deliberate confusion caused by the taxonomic vandals. 7/ Taxonomic vandals use fake online accounts and hijack databases and the like to infect them with their illegal names and to delete the correct scientific names to confuse scientists and the general public. Their actions and the damage they cause can be compared to the effects of a severe Coronavirus pandemic. 8/ Taxonomic vandalism is fake science and anti-science. Taxonomic Vandalism can only exist in the complete absence of peer review. 9/ Taxonomic vandalism has in the past caused species to be become extinct and is an evil law-breaking practice that needs to be stamped and the perpetrators exposed 10/ Many of the taxonomic vandals listed above are ostensibly government-funded scientists and are scamming research grants to conduct original research, when all they are doing is stealing work from other scientists and fraudulently rebadging it as original research. 11/ Research grants awarded to these fake scientists are illegally obtained and the fake scientists if caught would be liable to be charged for fraud, theft and potentially jailed. 12/ Taxonomic vandals like Wolfgang Wüster typically “author shop”, with the added names being listed on the paper as authors “to add credibility” to the document (Wüster’s exact words). Not all above listed co-authors would even be aware that their names have been associated with fake science, but in those  cases they are reckless in not reading or checking properly the so-called “paper” they have put their name to.

RADIO FREE AMERIKA #1

Created by B. Robert Bell, who also did the art, and co-written by Robert Jeffrey II, whose work I’ve reviewed previously in ROUTE 3 #1 and PLATYPUS VS. MONKEY #1, this is a dystopian near-future political action thriller from Terminus Media. The preview blurb describes it as “Red Dawn meets The Wire”, which is pretty accurate. This issue is Chapter One: D.O.A. (Death of America).

22 April – Vocations Sunday:  Catechism on the Priesthood

Vocations Sunday

Catechism on the Priesthood

by St John Vianney (1786-1859) Patron of Priests

       My children, we have come to the Sacrament of Orders.   It is a Sacrament which seems to relate to no one among you and which yet relates to everyone. This Sacrament raises man up to God.   What is a priest!   A man who holds the place of God – a man who is invested with all the powers of God. “Go,” said Our Lord to the priest; “as My Father sent Me, I send you.   All power has been given Me in Heaven and on earth.   Go then, teach all nations….  He who listens to you, listens to Me; he who despises you despises Me.”   When the priest remits sins, he does not say, “God pardons you”; he says, “I absolve you.”   At the Consecration, he does not say, “This is the Body of Our Lord;” he says, “This is My Body.”

St Bernard tells us that everything has come to us through Mary and we may also say that everything has come to us through the priest; yes, all happiness, all graces, all heavenly gifts.   If we had not the Sacrament of Orders, we should not have Our Lord.   Who placed Him there, in that tabernacle?   It was the priest.   Who was it that received your soul, on its entrance into life?   The priest.   Who nourishes it, to give it strength to make its pilgrimage?   The priest. Who will prepare it to appear before God, by washing that soul, for the last time, in the blood of Jesus Christ?   The priest – always the priest. And if that soul comes to the point of death, who will raise it up, who will restore it to calmness and peace?   Again the priest. You cannot recall one single blessing from God without finding, side by side with this recollection, the image of the priest.

Go to confession to the Blessed Virgin, or to an angel; will they absolve you?   No.  Will they give you the Body and Blood of Our Lord?   No.   The Holy Virgin cannot make her Divine Son descend into the Host.   You might have two hundred angels there but they could not absolve you.   A priest, however simple he may be, can do it; he can say to you, “Go in peace; I pardon you.”   Oh, how great is a priest!   The priest will not understand the greatness of his office till he is in Heaven.   If he understood it on earth, he would die, not of fear but of love.

The other benefits of God would be of no avail to us without the priest.   What would be the use of a house full of gold, if you had nobody to open you the door!   The priest has the key of the heavenly treasures; it is he who opens the door;  he is the steward of the good God, the distributor of His wealth.   Without the priest, the Death and Passion of Our Lord would be of no avail.   Look at the heathens, what has it availed them that Our Lord has died?   Alas!   they can have no share in the blessings of Redemption, while they have no priests to apply His Blood to their souls!

The priest is not a priest for himself.   He does not give himself absolution, he does not administer the Sacraments to himself. He is not for himself, he is for you.   After God, the priest is everything.   Leave a parish twenty years without priests, they will worship beasts.   If the missionary Father and I were to go away, you would say, “What can we do in this church? there is no Mass, Our Lord is no longer there,we may as well pray at home.”   When people wish to destroy religion, they begin by attacking the priest, because where there is no longer any priest there is no sacrifice and where there is no longer any sacrifice there is no religion.

When the bell calls you to church, if you were asked, “Where are you going?” you might answer, “I am going to feed my soul.”           If someone were to ask you, pointing to the tabernacle, “What is that golden door?”  “That is our storehouse, where the true Food of our souls is kept.” “Who has the key?   Who lays in the provisions?   Who makes ready the feast, and who serves the table?”   “The priest.” “And what is the Food?”   “The precious Body and Blood of Our Lord.”   O God!   O God! how You have loved us!   See the power of the priest;   out of a piece of bread the word of a priest makes a God.   It is more than creating the world…. Someone said, “Does St Philomena, then, obey the Cure of Ars?”   Indeed, she may well obey him, since God obeys him.   If I were to meet a priest and an angel, I should salute the priest before I saluted the angel.   The latter is the friend of God but the priest holds His place.   St Teresa kissed the ground where a priest had passed.   When you see a priest, you should say, “There is he who made me a child of God and opened Heaven to me by holy Baptism;  he who purified me after I had sinned;  who gives nourishment to my soul.”   At the sight of a church tower, you may say, “What is there in that place?” “The Body of Our Lord.” “Why is He there?”   “Because a priest has been there, and has said holy Mass.”

What joy did the Apostles feel after the Resurrection of Our Lord, at seeing the Master whom they had loved so much! The priest must feel the same joy, at seeing Our Lord whom he holds in his hands.   Great value is attached to objects which have been laid in the drinking cup of the Blessed Virgin and of the Child Jesus, at Loreto.   But the fingers of the priest, that have touched the adorable Flesh of Jesus Christ, that have been plunged into the chalice which contained His Blood, into the pyx where His Body has lain, are they not still more precious?   The priesthood is the love of the Heart of Jesus.   When you see the priest, think of Our Lord Jesus Christ and thank Him!

“Christ’s invitation to the priesthood is an invitation to a way of life that is athletic in its intensity and heroic in its form.”

Bishop Robert Barron

PRAYER FOR PRIESTS

By St John Vianney

God, please give to Your Church today many more priests after Your own heart. May they be worthy representatives of Christ the Good Shepherd. May they wholeheartedly devote themselves to prayer and penance; be examples of humility and poverty; shining models of holiness; tireless and powerful preachers of the Word of God; zealous dispensers of Your grace in the sacraments. May their loving devotion to Your Son Jesus in the Eucharist and to Mary his Mother be the twin fountains of fruitfulness for their ministry. Amen

(via AnaStpaul – Breathing Catholic)

[softshirringsound]

all the books I read this year!!

one of my new year’s resolutions was to read more nonfiction, and I did a pretty good job of it. I didn’t track the books I read the year before, but I know i only read a few nonfiction so I’m proud of myself. my other NYR was to shower more which I also accomplished! anyways, my list of books is under the cut if you want to check it out.

NF is for nonfiction, F is for fiction, A is for audiobook and P is for paperback. any spelling errors on the author’s names is from my horrible handwriting. maybe next year I’ll keep track electronically so I don’t have to struggle through reading my own handwriting lmao
