Iraq has Drones?
Again something I've heard nothing about in the American press.
From the Times Online:
A REPORT declassified by the United Nations yesterday contained a hidden bombshell with the revelation that inspectors have recently discovered an undeclared Iraqi drone with a wingspan of 7.45m, suggesting an illegal range that could threaten Iraq’s neighbours with chemical and biological weapons.
US officials were outraged that Hans Blix, the chief UN weapons inspector, did not inform the Security Council about the drone, or remotely piloted vehicle, in his oral presentation to Foreign Ministers and tried to bury it in a 173-page single-spaced report distributed later in the day. The omission raised serious questions about Dr Blix’s objectivity.

Miraculous Images?
I've been reading for the past few months about images appearing all over the place. This one of Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared on a highway in Mexico City. I saw the image on Fox News the other night. There is an image posted at this site and a brief story as well.

John Allen Writes About the LA Congress
This is where I was last week. I actually spoke with John as we were walking from one conference to another. I joked about some of his leading candidates in Conclave dying off. He mentioned that he is under contract to revise the book every two years.
Of the people he mentions hearing, I did hear Father Tony speak at a youth rally. I also heard John speak just before the Native American Liturgy in the Arena, but none of the others.
Here is a sampling of his column:
Go to The Word From Rome for his full report.
The congress is an incredible event, reflecting the energy, the diversity, and the sheer size of Los Angeles itself. A friend who works for the U.S. bishops observed that it's remarkable that so many lay Catholics --somewhere around 22,000 --would give up a beautiful Southern California weekend to sit through what amounted to a series of lectures on ministry, trends in catechesis, and the issues facing John Paul's successor. For three days, the Anaheim Convention Center literally buzzed with Catholicity.

Marketing Through Amazon - Tentacle Tips (GreenTentacles)
I would have to guess that the Catholic Digest piece has greatly increased the sales of my book on the Mass. For today it has jumped up to around 2,000 on Amazon and I think is still around 1,000 on Barnes and Nobles. From what I can determine if you are in the top 10,000 in sales the rank is updated hourly.

Father Groeschel Responds to Dallas Morning News Story
Read the Entire Response to Brooks Egerton's Article of March 2, 2003 in the Dallas Morning News by Father Groeschel by Clicking Here
A snipet:
The headline of this article claiming that I played down the abuse crisis is an absolute untruth. Anyone reading my books or listening to my talks on this subject knows that this is utterly untrue, that it is a smear.
I must respond carefully to the rest of Egerton's article because of professional confidentiality. I cannot even acknowledge that I spoke to certain people because of their right to privacy.
