The Pro-Life Resistance

Participants attend the annual March for Life rally in Washington, January 19, 2018. (Eric Thayer/Reuters)
This Fordham professor has no tolerance for ‘throwaway culture’ and is trying to do something about it.

Charles Camosy is an associate professor of theological and social ethics at Fordham University. A board member of Democrats for Life, he is author of the upcoming book Resisting Throwaway Culture. He’s a Catholic who won’t let the Democrats go down without a fight, and you can often find him trying to build bridges and find common cause between liberals and conservatives on saving human life and building a culture of life. He’s also an adoptive father. We talk about some of these issues as we approach the March for Life this week and the anniversary of that grave Supreme Court decision, Roe v. Wade, 46 years ago.

Kathryn Jean Lopez: Why did you bother to write an op-ed about abortion and life issues in the New York Times last week?

Charles Camosy: Well, to be honest, I was disgusted by the recent fetal-personhood series published by the Times editorial board. It not only lacked viewpoint diversity and used offensive language to describe the prenatal child, it cynically used outlier cases to give the impression that one of the goals of pro-lifers is to jail women. Despite the fact that every pro-life organization has repeatedly and publicly said they do not want this.

To their credit, when I wrote to the op-ed folks at the Times and challenged them on the lack of viewpoint diversity in the series, they gave me the chance to respond. I decided to highlight the offensive and disingenuous use of using certain kinds of language — phrases like “clusters of cells” — to refer to prenatal children. This is the classic methodology of what Pope Francis calls “throwaway culture.” Vulnerable populations that are most inconvenient for those who have power are often branded with certain words or phrases that “thingify” them so they can be more easily used and/or discarded as mere objects or trash.

Lopez: The theme of resisting throwaway culture is at the heart of your upcoming book, yes?

Camosy: Yes, in the book I argue that Pope Francis builds on the pro-life views of St. John Paul II (particularly in Evangelium Vitae) and Benedict XVI (particularly in Caritas in Veritate) in offering a consistent life ethic. One of the limitations of the consistent life ethic, in my opinion, is that it has been more an attitude or stance than something principled and capable of making important distinctions. I wanted to try to write book which built on the work of John Paul, Benedict, and Francis, but answer questions like: What, precisely, is the consistent life ethic? What principles govern it? How to the issues relate to each other, especially in terms of moral gravity? I found Francis’ call to resist throwaway culture — and replace it with a culture of encounter and hospitality — absolutely invaluable for building a coherent and relatable vision of the consistent life ethic. And publishing with New City Press, run by the Focolare, is no accident. I have hopes that, properly articulated, such an ethic can be a source of dialogue and even unity for those currently separated by simplistic liberal/conservative political, ethical, and theological imagination.

Lopez: This book seems like yet another effort of yours at bridge-building. How goes it? Where have you seen progress? What are the greatest challenges?

Camosy: Boy, it is really, really difficult. Especially in the academy. We are being overrun by a certain kind of intersectional discourse that often looks very skeptically at the kind of bridge-building I want to do. Instead of engaging in intellectual solidarity and mutually exploring evidence and arguments, we are being corrupted by raw activism and attempts to wield power at the service of a point of view.

Happily, as I have to remind myself, in the real world the liberal-conservative binary I mentioned above is crumbling and it is unclear what will replace it. This is a very hopeful thing for those of us who want to build bridges between people who currently think of themselves as enemies. In the right-left binary, opposing “the other side” is built right into one’s very identity. Authentic dialogue, by contrast, requires solidarity with one’s perceived ideological or political opponent. As it becomes increasingly unclear what liberals and conservatives (to the extent those words have any fixed meaning right now) actually believe, this provides important opportunity to see others anew — and create openings for unity that wouldn’t have otherwise been possible.

Lopez: What has your experience of adoption been like?

Camosy: Simply incredible. Three years ago, three siblings from the Philippines were living in an orphanage unsure of their future. Today they live with us in New Jersey and are on flourishing paths as members of our family. Our oldest has been accepted to a couple colleges already and is currently figuring out where to go next fall. Her brother and sister continue to grow in wisdom and love — including love for their little brother, Thaddeus Michael, to whom my wife gave birth last May. We had so many people tell us that we would get pregnant after adopting, but I largely dismissed such comments. Not only because we didn’t adopt for this reason, but because it seemed like a wacky thing to claim at the time. But now, having lived it, and heard the stories of so many others who have experienced something similar, I’m beginning to warm to the concept. There is something very mysterious about it.

Anyway, we are in some ways a strange family, knit together in ways that aren’t traditional. And like all families, we have stiff challenges. But the way we’ve come together really is a beautiful thing. Dinners are full of such joy. And though the kids’ grandparents live far away, they are all a profound part of their lives, especially via the new ways the internet makes possible. Every day I’m reminded of Jesus’ vision of the family, one which doesn’t fit very well, actually, with the dominant US American version. Christians are called to vision of family which is, to employ an overused term, “messy.” Adoption is one way in which one can have an authentic and full family life, but in a way which troubles the neat and clean expectations many of us have for what a family is supposed to look like.

Lopez: Am I crazy or should adoption be the greatest work of common ground and moral consensus? Can we do something about making it more that way?

Camosy: Not crazy! I’ve thought about this for some time and wish it would be a subject of more common-ground work. For some time now, I’ve admired your own work in this regard. I think one of the most important moments for the pro-life movement was our hammering Congress to keep the adoption credit in the midst of the tax-reform debate. In addition to showing beyond doubt that the “pro-birth” critique is absolute nonsense, it was an important political moment to see that we could detach from the expectations of the libertarian wing of the Republican party, moving beyond the uncritical injunction that government ought not to get involved in who gets tax benefits. The pro-life movement needed to show it could stand-up to this wing of the GOP, and in so doing they signaled that we can be open to a host of policies which mitigate abortion demand. Paid family leave should be next!

Lopez: Isn’t adoption, too, at the heart of the Christian identity? Do you run into people who see it that way?

Camosy: Exactly. In a very real sense we are all adopted sons and daughters of God and thus are brothers and sisters in Christ. Close colleagues of mine from when I first got hired at Fordham, in fact, adopted with precisely this vision of their Christian identity in mind. In addition, they were also moved by the early Church’s response to the abandonment and exposure of infants in the ancient world. Inspired by Jesus’ unusual focus on children, these Christians became known for rescuing and adopting these children (who were often female or disabled) and in so doing, they saved them from a life of slavery or prostitution, being eaten by animals, or dying from exposure. The parallels with what adoption can do in the face of the violence today’s youngest children face are difficult to miss.

Lopez: What do the March for Life and the anniversary of the Roe decision mean to you?

Camosy: This marking of one of the darkest days of the U.S. republic goes back a long way for me. These days I do talks or have meetings associated with the March for Life (though this year I’m staying home to meet our childcare needs), but perhaps my best memories come from my time as a high-school teacher about 15 years ago when I would take students from the pro-life club to D.C. for the March. I have such great memories: the joys and challenges of traveling from Wisconsin, braving the weather, hearing Rock for Life bands play, attending mass, keeping teenagers in line in the hotel, and being profoundly moved by the gravity of the mass killing to which we are bearing witness.

In light of some of what I have mentioned above, however, I do worry about featuring Donald Trump and Ben Shapiro in back-to-back years. Working on the “supply” end of abortion is absolutely essential, and (for the moment) fits well with featuring right-leaning politicians and activists. But we should be equally interested in addressing the demand for abortion. I’m glad that a pro-life Democrat like Dan Lipinski is speaking at the March this year, but I hope in future years, the event will feature pro-life activists focused on the interconnected goals of saving babies’ lives and increasing social support for mothers.

SPAWAR Awards First IWRP Contract

Story Number: NNS190115-11Release Date: 1/15/2019 12:36:00 PM
A  A  A   Email this story to a friend   Print this story
By C. Michaela Judge, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Atlantic Public Affairs

Charleston, S.C. (NNS) -- Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) Systems Center (SSC) Atlantic awarded the first prototype project agreement (PPA) under the Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) for the Information Warfare Research Project (IWRP) Jan. 8 for $1.3 million.

The focus of the prototype is for a new Low Altitude Range Communication System (LARCS) for the U.S. Marine Corps.

The goal of the upgraded technology is to replace the current LARCS in order to meet the critical communication requirements for Marine training ranges. Once completed, the system is slated for installation at the Townsend Bombing Range at Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, S.C. where the LARCS will undergo testing and Field User Evaluation in the final operational environment and configuration.

“This first award is a significant milestone for the IWRP,” said Pete Reddy, SSC Atlantic deputy executive director. “This effort will not only provide inherent value to the project sponsor and warfighting capability, but it also validates and sets into motion the awesome capability that IWRP is for the SPAWAR enterprise and entire Naval Research and Development Establishment.”

The IWRP consortium utilizes whitepapers for prototype proposals versus the traditional acquisition request for proposal process. The LARCS prototype whitepaper was submitted Sept. 11, 2018 and from concept to award took the team only 119 days to accomplish.

“The IWRP enabled us to quickly make our way to a prototype award that will rapidly provide a new capability to the warfighter,” said John Larson, project lead and Enterprise Systems and Services (ES2) team lead. “We learned a lot through collaboration with the IWRP consortium, and I anticipate that as IWRP matures it will only become quicker.”

The combined efforts from the IWRP team, Advanced Technology International (ATI) and contracting were instrumental in both the speed of awarding the first project and ensuring the level of quality in the technology.

“We view the IWRP as a critical tool that will enable SSC Atlantic to achieve "Pivot Speed" in rapidly responding to emerging business IT and warfighter needs,” said Erik Gardner, Expeditionary Enterprise Systems and Services (E2S2) division head. “The IWRP, when combined with other tools, processes and environments, has proven to foster innovation and is a new way of thinking about our problems and their solutions.”

The project was awarded to ATI on behalf of Booz Allen Hamilton in collaboration with Intuitive Research Technology Corporation (IRTC). A significant portion of the work will be performed by IRTC, a non-traditional defense contractor, and is scheduled to be completed in 10 months.

“The collaboration and teamwork on this process allowed for a prototype to be awarded which has potential for more advanced technologies at a cheaper cost and a faster timeline than was expected,” said Don Sallee, SPAWAR IWRP program manager.

The management of the IWRP consortium was awarded by SPAWAR to ATI on June 26, 2018. The IWRP allows the use of an alternative acquisition process, called an OTA, that works to streamline acquisition processes, develop prototypes, and rapidly provide advanced technologies to the fleet. Since opening the consortium, membership has grown to 219 and approximately 81 whitepapers have been submitted for review to address potential information warfare needs.

SPAWAR identifies, develops, delivers and sustains information warfighting capabilities supporting naval, joint, coalition and other national missions. SSC Atlantic consists of more than 10,000 active duty military and civil service professionals located around the world and close to the fleet to keep SPAWAR at the forefront of research, engineering and acquisition to provide and sustain information warfare capabilities to the fleet.

Deferred Deportation for Undocumented Youths in San Francisco - NBC Bay Area

Deferred Deportation for Undocumented Youths in San Francisco

    5 Stylish Home Updates That Make the Biggest Difference
    Getty Images
    Members of CASA de Maryland gather in front of the White House to celebrate the Obama Administration's announcement about deportation of illegal immigrants June 15, 2012 in Washington, DC. Obama said the administration will stop deporting undocumented immigrants who had come to the U.S. when they were at a young age.

    Immigration experts encouraged undocumented San Francisco youth on Wednesday to prepare for next week when they will be able to apply for deferred deportation.

    The policy change, announced by President Obama in June, provides a two-year deferral of deportation for people who came to the U.S. before the age of 16, are under 31 years old, and meet other requirements.

    The first day to apply for the policy is Aug. 15, and members of the San Francisco Immigrant Legal and Education Network (SFILEN), the coalition that held Wednesday's news conference, encouraged people to prepare  ahead of time.

    "Start obtaining documentation, school records, medical records, anything with a name and dates," said Laura Sanchez, an immigration attorney with the Central American Resource Center (CARECEN), a group in the  coalition.

    Other eligibility requirements include having resided continuously in the U.S. since June 15, 2007, currently being in school or having obtained a high school diploma, and having not been convicted of a felony offense or a  significant misdemeanor.

    Sanchez said another critical thing to be aware of for immigrants seeking deferred deportation is the $465 application fee.

    "It's a significant amount of money," she said. "Imagine having multiple family members who may qualify."

    Anoop Prasad, an immigration attorney with the Asian Law Caucus,  said many people are wary of applying because they believe it could put their  undocumented family members who are not eligible for the program at risk.  Prasad said that is not the case.

    "Privacy act privileges are in place," Prasad said.

    He said some are also waiting until after the November  presidential election to apply since a new president could alter or dismantle  the policy.

    Sanchez said people interested in applying should consult with a  nonprofit agency that is part of SFILEN or an experienced immigration  attorney because "it's somewhat of a complicated process," and said an  application form has still yet to be released by federal officials.

    She also warned against "notarios," people posing as immigration  attorneys or consultants.

    Emmanuel Valenciano, a 24-year-old San Francisco State University  student, said he is an example of an undocumented immigrant who plans on  applying for the policy.

    Valenciano said he was moved to the U.S. from the Philippines at  the age of 13."At that time, I did not know the consequences of staying here,"  he said. "I was afraid of the future, and didn't know if my status would be  fixed."

    Valenciano said "it was amazing" when he heard of the new policy,  but said "it's only a temporary" fix for undocumented youth.

    "There are hard workers still living in the shadows," he said.

Busted Driver Busts a Move After Calif. Police Chase

After a PIT maneuver turned his car around, the driver got out and danced on a Pacoima street

    Police Chase Ends With Dancing Man

    An erratic driver gets stopped in his tracks, then busts a dance move before officers bust him. (Published Wednesday, March 20, 2019)

    A driver busted out some dance moves before he was arrested at the end of a police chase Tuesday night on several Southern California freeways.

    The chase began after a report of an erratic driver in the Agoura Hills area. The California Highway Patrol got in pursuit of the white four-door sedan on the 101 Freeway eastbound. The driver proceeded to take the 405 Freeway northbound, then took the 118 Freeway eastbound.

    The white car was traveling at slow speeds.

    Eventually, police performed a PIT maneuver in the city of Pacoima, and the car came to a stop. The driver got out, then decided to a do a little dance before he was arrested.

    He was taken into custody without incident.

    Witness Jose Suarez said after the arrest that the driver "could have hurt us all" with his erratic driving.

    "He just started dancing. I mean, just, don't do drugs, that's what I've got to say," Suarez added.

Arun Ghosh

Arun Ghosh is a British-Asian clarinettist and composer. His second album, Primal Odyssey, was released in October 2011 on camoci records. In 2008 he was selected for Edition IV of the Jerwood/PRS Foundation 'Take Five' initiative for emerging jazz musicians produced by Serious. In 2009, he was invited to perform at the jazzahead! Festival in Bremen, Germany as part of the UK showcase presented by Jazz Services. In 2010, he was made an Associate Artist at The Albany Theatre, London - a position still held and in April 2011, Ghosh was made an Artist-in-Residence for the Southbankâ€™s Alchemy Festival. September 2011 saw Arun Ghosh feature as the cover star for Jazzwise magazine, the UK's biggest selling jazz magazine. Conceived in Calcutta, bred in Bolton, matured in Manchester and now living in London, Arun Ghosh's musical vision and vocabulary reflects his rich geographical heritage. His Indo-Jazz Sextet play original music of South Asian origin with a contemporary jazz attitude,rocking urban beats and the passion of punk. Sweet and timeless melodies give birth to soaring improvisations and raag explorations, driven by a heady mix of dub-reggae bass, tabla trickery and ferocious drum explosions. The first Arun Ghosh IndoJazz Sextet performance took place at the London Jazz Festival in 2007. The stellar line up consisted of: Arun Ghosh - clarinet, Idris Rahman - tenor saxophone Dr Das - bass Aref Durvesh - tabla and dholak Kishon Khan - piano Myke Wilson - drums This band rocked the Southbank - see footage http://www.youtube.com/camocivision - and has since lit up the British jazz scene with intense and cathartic performances at clubs, festivals and melas in London and around the country. Alternative line-ups include Liran Donin (double bass), Shabaka Hutchings (tenor saxophone), Nilesh Gulhane (tabla), Rastko Rasic (darbuka), Corey Mwamba (vibraphone) and Pat Illingworth (drums). Arun Ghosh released his debut album â€œNorthern Namasteâ€ on camoci records in 2008 to critical acclaim. The album has UK retail distribution through Harmonia Mundi and is available as a digital release on iTunes. The opening track on â€œNorthern Namasteâ€ entitled â€œAuroraâ€ also appears on Gilles Peterson's compilation album â€œBrownswood Bubblers Threeâ€. Following the success of his official â€œhomecoming' album launch at Contact Theatre, Arun performed to packed audiences and rave reviews at:- Brighton's Great Escape Festival, London's Vortex, the City of London Festival, Streatham Festival and to a sold-out crowd at London's Pizza Express Soho Jazz Club. Appearing at the Manchester Jazz Festival, Arun's IndoJazz Sextet was deemed â€œgig of the festivalâ€ by patrons of Matt&Phred's Jazz Club, and a streamlined Arun Ghosh Quartet fired up the Indo-Electronica tent as part of the year's London Mela. Two performances at the London Jazz Festival 2008, saw Arun Ghosh's bands playing to a sold-out audience at the Purcell Room, Southbank in a double-bill opposite Rudresh Mahanthappa Quartet plus a capacity crowd at Ray's Jazz Cafe at Foyles. 2009 was another exciting year for Arun Ghosh. Highlights included a high octane performance at the jazzahead festival, Bremen that took European jazz promoters by storm, a sold-out show at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club in August, and his role as Musical Director and performer with Malian legends Amadou and Mariam at the Manchester International Festival. Ghoshâ€™s international appearances in 2009 saw him perform sell-out concerts at Franceâ€™s Jazz Sous Les Pommiers Festival and the inaugural Elbjazz Festival in Hamburg. 2010 saw Arun Ghosh continue to build upon his sonic explorations. First premiered as part of his Magical Musical Merry-Go-Round events at the Albany and at the London Jazz Festival 2009, new instrumental ingredients in the Arun Ghosh aural recipe included cello, bass clarinet and bass sitar (surbahar). Arun Ghosh is equally at home playing in an intimate trio as clarinet/bass/tabla or leading his 'Horn E Bass Quintet' with a frontline of clarinet, bass clarinet and sax sparring with a powerful bass and drums rhythm section. Primal Odyssey, Ghosh's 2nd album, is the sound of this Horn E Bass Quintet and represents a back-to-basics approach to recording - five musicians in a room playing together, a classic jazz set-up. Constantly experimenting with live formats and arrangements has been key to Arun Ghosh's growing reputation for creating music that is â€œ...at once no-nonsense, thrilling and beautiful...uproarious and irresistibleâ€ (The Telegraph). A charismatic live performer, Ghosh has regularly appeared at several major UK venues and festivals, 2011 will see his 5th consecutive appearance at the renowned London Jazz Festival. In addition, Ghosh's international presence has increased significantly with shows undertaken at festival and venues in Germany, Austria, India, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates. Alongside his performance activity, Arun maintains a healthy composition and education workload, particularly in the world of theatre, in addition to collaborating with other musicians, writers, poets, filmmakers and dancers.

Moin Kahn’s Tragic Death May Help other children in India

By Reid Maki, Child Labor Coalition Coordinator, National Consumers League Moin Khan isn’t a name known by most Americans, but it should be. Moin Khan went to work in New Delhi at age seven—one of several million child laborers working in India (estimates by advocacy groups of the number ofchildren working in India range from 44 million to 100 million, according to the U.S. Department of Labor). Moin’s case stands out though because he had a particularly brutal employer—his uncle, Kalimullah Khan —allegedly beat him to death with a blunt weapon on April 16 because the boy was working too slow. Moin was only 10 when he was murdered. Three years earlier, the Moin left his home on a train and traveled to New Delhi, about 300 miles away, in a deal arranged between the uncle and the boy’s grandfather. For the last three years of his life—for the rest of his life-- Moin did not see his parents. He worked tirelessly, rolling bidis or beedes—thin cigarettes popular in India. Imagine a seven-year-old bent over 14 hours a day working feverishly at a repetitive task and you may start to sense what Moin’s new life was like. But the reality was even worse than you might imagine. “Kalim was a really bad man. He beat up all of us if we made the smallest of mistakes. His punishments were severe,” said a seven-year-old boy rescued when Khan was arrested. “He would put hot iron rods into our pants or he would hang us upside down from the fan or even throw us hard on the floor,” added the boy, one of five children who worked in the factory. “We were not allowed to go out or talk to anyone.” On the day he killed his nephew, Kalimullah Khan beat all five children he “employed,” including Moin’s brother who is mute. Employed is in quotes because many child laborers in India do not get paid. Many are, in fact, slaves. The sad details of Moin’s life were only discovered because a mortician noticed horrible bruises all over the young boy’s body and called authorities. One wonders how many more children are being abused like Moin. In the wake of Moin’s death, vigils have been held in New Delhi and a bright light has shown on exploitative child labor which is technically illegal in India. To improve enforcement, authorities just announced that they will be adding a hotline in New Delhi. India also banned child labor in circuses last month. The public and officials in India are increasingly aware of child labor horrors. Moin Kahn did not intend to make his tragic death stand for something, but it has. Readers interested in child labor should visit the web site of the Child Labor Coalition (CLC), which is co-chaired by the National Consumers League and the American Federation of Teachers. News from the CLC may also be followed under the Twitter name ChildLABRcoaltn.

Timeline of a crisis

This article appears in the 30 years later feature series. View the full series.

Editor's note: This timeline is part of a weeklong series dedicated to looking back on 30 years of the abuse crisis in the Catholic church. Read all parts of the series.

1962: Fr. Gerald Fitzgerald, founder of the Paraclete Center to aid troubled priests in Jimenez Springs, N.M., meets with Cardinal Alfredo Ottaviani, head of the Holy Office in Rome, to warn him that there is no cure for pedophile priests.

1964: Fitzgerald meets with the new pope, Paul VI, to repeat his warnings.

1985: In May, Dominican Fr. Thomas Doyle, Fr. Michael Peterson and Ray Mouton present a 92-page document to a committee of the U.S. bishops' conference, warning them to handle pending cases well, defend victims, and be honest with the public.

In June, NCR publishes its first exposé and editorial on sex abuse crisis. The story is based on Jason Berry's reporting of the case of Fr. Gilbert Gauthe of Lafayette, La., who ultimately served 10 years of a 20-year sentence for molesting children.

1988: Barbara Blaine in Chicago starts the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP).

1992: U.S. bishops approve guidelines for handling sex abuse cases, but the guidelines are voluntary and not universally applied. They are later viewed as a failure.

1997: Eleven plaintiffs sue the Dallas diocese and a suspended 52-year-old priest. The plaintiffs charge that the priest, Rudolph Kos, molested altar boys in three Dallas parishes from 1981 to 1992. The diocese eventually pays $31 million to Kos' victims.

Fr. James Porter, who admitted to abusing more than 100 boys and girls in several parishes in the Boston archdiocese, is sentenced to 18-20 years in a maximum-security prison for abusing 28 children. He dies in 2005.

The Hartford Courant reports that former students have accused Fr. Marcial Maciel Degollado, Mexican-born founder of the Legion of Christ, of sexually abusing them. A Vatican investigation ensues but is closed down in 2001 by then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.

2002: In January, Judge Constance Sweeney orders Boston Cardinal Bernard Law to turn over 10,000 pages of records. The Boston Globe uses this evidence to initiate an extensive series on clerical sexual abuse in archdiocese.

John Geoghan, a former Boston priest accused of abusing more than 130 children during his 30 years as a priest, is convicted of molesting a child in 1991 and sentenced to 9-10 years in prison. He is killed the following year by another inmate.

On April 23, Pope John Paul II calls emergency meeting with U.S. cardinals in Rome to discuss the crisis.

The U.S. bishops, meeting in Dallas in June, adopt the "Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People."

Law resigns as archbishop of Boston Dec. 13.

2004: The John Jay College of Criminal Justice releases a study sponsored by the U.S. bishops. It reports 10,667 complaints of sexual abuse against 4,392 priests and deacons between 1950 and 2002.

First diocese to declare bankruptcy over payments for pedophilia cases is in Portland, Ore. Since then, other dioceses filing have included: Tucson, Ariz.; Spokane, Wash.; Davenport, Iowa; San Diego; Fairbanks, Alaska; Wilmington, Del.; and Milwaukee. So, too, has the Jesuits' Oregon Province.

2005: Another former Boston priest, Paul Shanley, 74, is sentenced to 12-15 years in prison for child rape in the 1980s.

2006: The Vatican reopens investigation of Maciel and finds him guilty of sexual abuse of minors. Pope Benedict XVI orders him to stop public ministry and adopt a "life of prayer and penitence."

2007: The Los Angeles archdiocese agrees to pay $660 million to settle abuse claims brought by more than 500 people. Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahony says the settlement, along with a $60 million abuse settlement in 2006, will compel the archdiocese to re-evaluate its ministries and services.

2008: Benedict, in a plane on way to the United States, declares he is "deeply ashamed" of U.S. priest sex abuse scandal. Two years later, he is criticized for his handling of abuse cases as archbishop of Munich.

2010: The global scope of the scandal comes into focus. Three hundred former Catholic students in Germany say they were victims of physical or sexual abuse by priests. Brazil investigates allegations that three priests sexually abused altar boys. Investigations in Ireland document child abuse and cover-ups from the 1930s to 1990s, involving more than 15,000 children.

2011: The Oregon Province of the Society of Jesus, which covers Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Alaska and Montana, reaches a settlement of $166.1 million for more than 500 cases of clergy sexual abuse.

2012: Msgr. William Lynn, diocesan vicar in Philadelphia, is found guilty of covering up pedophile priests. (Cardinal Anthony Bevilacqua, his superior, was scheduled to testify in the case but died the night before his court date).

Bishop Robert Finn of Kansas City-St. Joseph, Mo., is first U.S. bishop criminally convicted of failing to report suspected child abuse.

2014: Pope Francis meets with victims of sexual abuse. He also establishes Pontifical Commission for the Protection of Minors.

2015: In April, Finn resigns. In June, Archbishop John Nienstedt and Auxiliary Bishop Lee Anthony Piché of St. Paul-Minneapolis also resign. Mishandling of clergy sex abuse cases is understood as reason for Vatican seeking the resignations.

On June 10, Francis announces establishment of a new office at the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith to serve as a tribunal to judge bishops who have mishandled abuse cases.

'Deadpool' Oozes Back to Life - NECN

'Deadpool' Oozes Back to Life

The Marvel anti-hero returns Friday to carve a new trail of blood and wisecracks, making his own mark in the presumed summer of "Solo."

    'Deadpool' Oozes Back to Life
    Twentieth Century Fox
    Deadpool is leaping back into the movies.

    Ryan Reynolds revealed recently that a crack about Disney proved to be just about the only thing 21st Century Fox wouldn't allow in the endlessly profane and violent original "Deadpool" flick.

    So when Disney announced its bid to take over the Fox movie and TV empire late last year, Reynolds tweeted a photo of a Disneyworld security guard leading Deadpool out of the Magic Kingdom. The caption, in keeping with most of the dialogue that pulsed through the 2016 film, proved decidedly R-rated.

    Now "Deadpool 2" oozes to life Friday, arriving smack between Disney's "Avengers: Infinity War" and its upcoming "Solo: A Star Wars Story."

    Deadpool doesn't easily fit in – not with the usual summer blockbuster fare, nor with the X-Men in the Fox-controlled stable of Marvel characters or the more expansive Disney edition of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

    Still, the haunted anti-hero, who shocked many with his record-breaking solo bow in early 2016, might have the times on his side: He returns to a world that's taken great strides toward matching his cynicism level.

    Nothing's sacred in Deadpool's dank life, as evidenced by the relentless bloodshed and unprintable wisecracks that elevated the original flick to the largest worldwide gross ever for a R-rated film.

    Reynolds' Wade Wilson, the mercenary with the face not even a mother could love, talks as fast as Spider-Man, but spews patter Aunt May could never stomach. The swords and bullets fly at a similar speed, making for, by one reckoning, 55 deaths in one hour, 48 minutes (or roughly one every two minutes) in "Deadpool."

    Deadpool is hard to like, but he makes it easy to hate yourself for laughing through the mayhem. Perhaps his lurid appeal rests in his differences – and not just his frequent breaks through the fourth wall with irreverent, self-referential humor.

    He's unlike any of the major movie superheroes of the moment. Deadpool makes Batman, DC's brooding Dark Knight, seem like a glass half-full type.

    We'll see whether the box office cup runneth over for "Deadpool 2" amid the current Avengers reign and on the eve of the presumed summer of "Solo." The performance of "Deadpool 2" also could signal what plans, if any, synergy-happy Disney has for the Marvel universe's biggest sinner, should its merger with Fox close next year as expected.

    Kevin Winter / Getty Images for Coachella

    Deadpool doesn't seem like the Avengers type, though he embodies the darker, vigilante connotations of the all-star crime-fighting group's name. Still, he's full of surprises, even if he's not what most people would think about when wishing upon a star.

Rented Vehicles And Third Party Liability

One of the main reasons we file negligence lawsuits is to make the roads safer for everyone, and that is also one of the reasons third party (vicarious) liability is so important. Rented vehicles are a good example. If no one holds Enterprise, U-Haul, and other vehicle lessors responsible when they carelessly rent vehicles to incompetent drivers, they will continue the same policy that allows anyone with a valid credit card and a passable form of picture identification to drive anything from a small sportscar to an extra-large moving truck.

In direct opposition to this need, the curiously-named Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and Efficient Transportation Equity Act has a controversial amendment provision that its makers designed to defeat safety and accountability on Florida’s highways.

The Graves Amendment

SAFETA is a sprawling, 800-plus page bill that lawmakers enacted in 2005. Typically, when representatives consider such omnibus bills, they add rather spurious provisions at the last minute, often with little or no forethought. 49 U.S.C. 30106 is just such a provision. Before members voted on the Graves Amendment (named for U.S. Rep. Sam Graves of Missouri), there was nary a single hearing and there was almost no floor debate.

With such little legislative history, it is difficult to know what the Graves Amendment is supposed to do, and what it is not supposed to do. What is known is that Rep. Graves introduced the measure to keep vehicle rental companies from leaving certain states to avoid vicarious liability judgements. Under traditional negligent entrustment doctrine, vehicle owners are liable for the victim’s damages if they allow someone else to use their vehicles, and these people later cause car crashes.

Bypassing the Graves Amendment

This provision is rather poorly drafted, which is another common feature of last-minute add-ons. For one thing, most of the key terms are not defined. Moreover, the law includes two very large exceptions:

  • Not Otherwise Negligent: The Graves Amendment states that if the owner or agent is negligent, owner liability still attaches. A growing number of courts have ruled that owners or agents are negligent if they do not verify the customer’s drivers’ license beyond a mere visual inspection, and as a result, a growing number of companies are enforcing such a requirement. A policy violation is evidence of negligence.
  • Trade or Business: Because the term is not defined, no one is sure what it means to be “engaged in the trade or business of renting or leasing motor vehicles,” but vehicle owners are liable for damages if they do not meet this condition. In the ordinary sense, owners/agents must derive most of their income from a certain activity to be in that trade or business, and especially with regard to smaller vehicle rental agents, this requirement may be lacking.

Florida law may provide a way around the Graves Amendment as well, because the measure says that it does not supercede state law. The dangerous instrumentality doctrine is well-settled law in the Sunshine State. According to this rule, a person who “voluntarily entrusts that motor vehicle to an individual whose negligent operation causes damage to another” is liable for damages. So, even if the owner/agent was not negligent and was engaged in the correct trade or business, liability may still attach under Florida law.

Samsung confirms it will launch handset with flexible, foldable display in 2015

Consumers have been promised phones with flexible displays for many years, but so far, the closest we've come has been devices like the LG G Flex, which can only handle a small amount of bending. But what about handsets with genuinely bendy displays, that can be folded over without being damaged?

The company showed off a prototype display almost two years ago, and this this time last year, a Samsung roadmap pointed to the first handsets with truly flexible displays coming in 2015. As ZDNet reports, Samsung Display has now confirmed that it will begin manufacturing flexible displays in significant quantities in 2015.

Samsung Display executive Lee Chang-hoon said that the company "will secure production capacity of 30,000 to 40,000 [units per month] by the end of next year". Lee added: "We plan to provide customers with a product that has a flexible display by the end of the year [2015]. However, nothing has been decided on the finished product."

Despite the ramp-up in production, 40,000 units a month isn't very much at all (just 480,000 a year), which suggests that Samsung will be approaching this new market segment very cautiously with a limited first run, much like it is doing with its new Galaxy Note Edge, which has a screen that curves and wraps around one edge of the handset. The same division responsible for the display on the Edge is also overseeing Samsung's flexible display development.

Lee also said that Samsung Display aims to drive down AMOLED panel production costs, and plans to reduce its dependence on Samsung's wider electronics business by offering increasingly affordable panels to appeal to other device manufacturers.

Editorial Review

Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium Review 2019

Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium provides a hybrid of automated investing and hands-on guidance. It is best for high-balance customers.

At NerdWallet, we adhere to strict standards of editorial integrity to help you make decisions with confidence. Many or all of the products featured here are from our partners. Here’s how we make money.

Our Take

NerdWallet rating

The Bottom Line: Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium is a good fit for investors who have large account balances and want online advice with access to a team of certified financial planners.

Schwab Intelligent Advisory

on Charles Schwab's secure website

management fee

Account minimum

no promotion available at this time

Pros & Cons

  • Access to financial advisors.
  • Wide ETF selection.
  • Automatic rebalancing.
  • $25,000 account minimum.
  • High cash allocation.
  • Tax-loss harvesting only available on $50,000 or more.
  • $300 planning fee.

Full Review

Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium is a hybrid robo-advisor, combining features of Charles Schwab's free online advisor, Schwab Intelligent Portfolios, with unlimited access to certified financial planners.

Previously called Schwab Intelligent Advisory, Intelligent Portfolios Premium was given a facelift in early 2019, with a new subscription-based fee structure alongside its new name. The service directly competes with Vanguard Personal Advisor Services, Personal Capital and Betterment Premium, but charges a flat rate of $30 a month instead of a percentage of assets under management.

That makes it difficult to for investors to compare costs, but here's the bottom line: If you're investing more than $120,000, Schwab Intelligent Portfolio Premium's flat management fee will beat the annual management fees of those three services.

One hitch: Schwab also charges a one-time planning fee of $300 when opening an account, which may rightly turn many new customers off.

Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium is best for:

  • Large account balances.

  • Comprehensive financial planning.

  • Unlimited access to financial advisors.

Where Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium shines

Management fee: As noted above, Schwab's new model takes a different approach to fees, charging a flat $30 per month (the fee is actually applied to accounts as $90 quarterly). Most robo-advisors — and human financial advisors — charge an annual fee calculated as a percentage of assets under management.

Like most flat fees, Schwab's pricing is ideal for high-balance investors, which seem to be the target of the service. To compare costs with other robo- and hybrid advisors, it's important to look at how much Schwab's flat fee costs as a percentage of your balance. Here's the percentage of assets under management you'll pay at sample portfolio balances:

For context, compare these numbers to the 0.30% charged by Vanguard Personal Advisor Services, the 0.40% fee for Betterment Premium — Betterment's hybrid offering that also offers unlimited phone access to financial planners — and the 0.89% charged by Personal Capital.

As you can see, investors who deposit Schwab's minimum of $25,000 will get burned, while those who exceed $125,000 will enjoy very competitive costs when compared to other services. It gets almost unheard-of cheap as account balances climb into the high six figures.

To get the full picture, though, investors should look at the all-in cost of each advisor; that is, the management fee plus investment expenses. The weighted-average cost of the portfolio, which most accurately reflects what investors are paying, ranges from 0.06% to 0.20% at Schwab, depending on allocation. That’s roughly in line with Vanguard and Betterment but may be notably higher than Personal Capital at some allocations.

Investments: The investments used here are the same that Schwab uses for Intelligent Portfolios: The service draws from up to 53 exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to create a diversified portfolio that can include up to 20 asset classes. Schwab favors its own funds, but third-party companies like Vanguard, BlackRock (iShares) and Invesco (PowerShares) also are in the mix. That broad asset coverage is relatively unmatched among the competition, though Vanguard and Personal Capital both customize portfolios.

Unlimited access to certified financial planners: Portfolios are still fully automated; they are built, managed and rebalanced by an algorithm. But Intelligent Portfolios Premium connects clients to a team of certified financial planners, who are available by appointment for phone and video chats.

A lot of people will happily dole out financial advice, but quality matters — and a huge benefit with Intelligent Portfolios Premium is the on-call certified financial planners. (These individuals have specialized training and must abide by a code of ethics). Clients also receive a written financial plan, and get access to interactive planning tools where they can update assumptions and change their plans.

That said, Schwab's model for hybrid online advice isn't entirely unique: Vanguard, Betterment and Personal Capital also offer a team of planners.

Vanguard includes a dedicated advisor for clients with balances that top $500,000. Personal Capital clients are always offered at least one dedicated advisor. Betterment offers access to financial planners, as well as planning packages that come with a one-time fee and are focused around life events.

Comprehensive management: One perk of a service that offers human advice is flexibility, and Schwab delivers that. While the company’s list of supported accounts is similar to those of other online advisors, the financial planners will also consider outside accounts, factoring 401(k) plans and other assets into the planning process and goal projections.

Schwab's hybrid model also goes beyond its standard robo offering to amp up the personalization factor. Services exclusive to Intelligent Portfolios Premium include the ability to customize multiple goals with different risk tolerance profiles and timelines; working with an advisor to create a personalized action plan and portfolio recommendations; and tools to stress test the probability of success of various financial plans.

Where Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium falls short

One-time planning fee: Schwab is the only online advisor we review that charges an upfront fee when opening account, which it calls a "one-time planning fee." It's a steep $300, and should be factored in when you compare the cost of services.

Revisiting the table above, that extra $300 nearly doubles the cost of Schwab's management for the first year:

Large cash allocation: We’ve questioned this before, in our review of the Intelligent Portfolios service: Schwab’s investment philosophy includes a large cash allocation. Even aggressive portfolios may hold 6% in cash. That brings up the concern of cash drag, when portfolios are “dragged down” by uninvested cash earning scant returns. Not only that, the annual percentage yield Schwab currently pays on cash allocations is much lower than you'd find at a bank or credit union.

Schwab finds this a non-issue — it outlines a compelling case for the merits of cash — but it’s something investors should be aware of, especially those who would prefer not to have uninvested cash in their portfolios.

High tax-loss harvesting minimum: Schwab’s minimum investment requirement is in line with or lower than that of other hybrid online advice services, but that minimum increases for clients who want access to tax-loss harvesting in their taxable accounts. Though free, that service requires a minimum of $50,000 — and customers must enroll in this feature.

Portfolio mix: Schwab draws upon an impressive number of ETFs, but that list won't do much for investors with specific interests, such as socially responsible investing. Customers can swap out three ETFs for others from the list, but beyond that feature, the customization possibilities may feel lacking, especially for folks with a specific investing ethos. After all, some of the hands-off robo-advisors have niche offerings — and require a lower account minimum and charge lower management fees.

Is Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium right for you?

Intelligent Portfolios Premium may be a good fit for investors who want comprehensive planning assistance and low-cost, unlimited access to a team of financial advisors. It also has a lower minimum investment requirement than other hybrid offerings, at $25,000.

However, it doesn't even begin to compete on costs until investors have an account balance of $120,000 or more; at lower levels, it can be extremely expensive. That cost is exacerbated by the service's $300 one-time planning fee.

Bottomline: High-balance investors will get a lot of value out of Intelligent Portfolios Premium. Those with lower balances should consider the company's competitors. Another option? Opening an account at Schwab Intelligent Portfolios, then moving over to Intelligent Portfolios Premium when your balance grows.

CherryCasino was established already in 1963 as a both land-based and off-shore “brick-and-mortar” casino in Sweden. It quickly developed into a major player in the Northern and Central European casino gaming industry and at one point actually covered 55% of the Swedish casino gaming market. Starting from 2000, the casino used its broad experience and casino gaming know-how to be one of the first European land-based casinos that entered the online casino gaming business.

The CherryCasino website represents the brand’s slogan – Gaming made easy! – perfectly. It features a very sober, but at the same time very classy, sophisticated and easily navigable interface, which is available available in 5 languages. An animated scene depicting various casino-based shenanigans sits in the background of the site to bring a bit of colour to proceedings and it’s all very easy on the eye.

A navigation panel is found towards the top of the home page, and from there you can find your way to CherryCasino’s games section. Once there, you can either search for a particular title you want to play or browse through the various categories at your own pace. Games are presented in small thumbnails, which sit five to a row and you won’t have any trouble finding your favourite slots.

TIL #2: How to Always Include Language Code in Your Rails App URLs

In today's TIL...

Ruby on Rails!

When you're developing the multi-language application at some point you may encounter the need to always include language code in your URLs.

The same happened to me and I found one extremely simple trick that will allow you to:

1. Always have language code in your URLs.

2. Redirect user to correct URL when someone tried to reach your app without language code given.

All you need to do is change slightly your config/routes.rb. Here you go:

# config/routes.rb

MyApp::Application.routes.draw do
  scope "/:locale", locale: /#{I18n.available_locales.join("|")}/ do
    # your routes go here
    root to: "home#index"
  root to: redirect("/#{I18n.default_locale}", status: 302), as: :redirected_root
  get "/*path", to: redirect("/#{I18n.default_locale}/%{path}", status: 302),
                constraints: { path: /(?!(#{I18n.available_locales.join("|")})\/).*/ },
                format: false

Simple, isn't it?

TIL, or Today I Learned, is where our developers share the best tech stuff they found every day. You can find smart solutions for some issues, useful advices and anything which will make your developer life easier.

'It must have taken her a while to strangle the child'

By admin
28 November 2016

The Vanderbijlpark mom sobbed as the State prosecutor described how her daughter died.

“It must have taken her a while to strangle the child.” The state prosecutor, Erik van der Merwe, described the circumstances around the death of Sonia Koekemoer’s daughter during her appearance in the Vanderbijlpark regional court on Monday. On Thursday 11 August 2016 Soniya pleaded guilty on murder charges filed against her and admitted that she was the one who strangled her nine-year-old daughter Michelle to death in their apartment.

A decision was taken for the court to proceed with the trial in the Vanderbijlpark high court even though Sonia’s psychiatric results had not yet been made available by Monday. Her legal representative, Francois de Kock, claimed that Soniya only made the decision to take Michelle’s life mere minutes before carrying out the murder -- as such, it was not premeditated. He also urged the court to consider a lighter sentence due to the fact that Soniya pleaded guilty and has shown remorse for her actions. He insisted that Soniya is not a danger to others.

An emotional Soniya lost control over her emotions and cried often during Francois’s address, wiping her tears on her sleeve.

During his address the state prosecutor claimed that the murder was premeditated or planned by Soniya. He maintained that Sonia was supposed to be looking after her daughter and that it would take have taken her a long time to physically strangle her to death.

Soniya had initially said in a police statement that she found Michelle dead in her bed on 9 June. She alleged that burglars had strangled her with a rope, she also claimed that she woke up with a rope around her own neck.

He also called Soniya “the master of her own undoing” and requested the Soniya receive a life sentence.

The case will continue on Tuesday.

Cooking with the kids is undoubtedly messy but it leads to a fun memorable family togetherness that kids always cherish. So let the kids put on their chef hat and apron and cook away
French toast is one easy meal that can be prepared with the help of kids. You can have this for dinner as well on days you drag your feet home on practice days.
So to start with, the French don’t even call it “French toast”, instead they call it “ pain perdu” which means “ lost bread” because they use day old bread or stale bread aka lost bread to make French toast.
Brioche bread makes the best French toast but you don’t have to go looking for it. I suggest white bread that’s refrigerated, so it’s a little stiff and can soak up the French toast batter better.
Egg – 4
milk – 1/2 cup
Vanilla essence – 1 tsp
Salt – a pinch
Brioche bread or white bread
Unsalted butter for cooking  – as per your wish
Sugar – 1/4 cup
Fruit – your choice
Cooking directions
1. Whisk eggs, milk, vanilla essence and salt together in a shallow container. You could add cinnamon powder too.
2. Powder the sugar. Keep aside for plating.
3. Now slice the bread into half diagonally. Keep the skillet on low medium flame. Melt some butter. Dip both sides of the bread and coat the batter evenly and cook both sides till golden brown.
4. Place the cooked French toast on to a plate, dust some powdered sugar on it, drizzle some maple syrup and add lots of fruits.
5. Lastly enjoy wholeheartedly.
Learn as you cook tips
1. Let the kids crack the eggs and whisk.
2. Let them measure, talk about unit of measurement and fractions
3. Use words like whisk, beat, ingredients, dip, drizzle.
4. Always supervise them. Only if they are ready, let them flip the toast with a grown up’s help.
5. Let them plate and create their masterpiece. Give them a variety of options to choose from. They could top it off with sliced almonds, pecans, walnuts, whipped cream, toasted coconut, jelly or even ice cream on special weekends.
Happy Cooking 🙂

    Hmm! Lovely recipe, will surely try this one, is there a savoury version of this??

    • Divya rabindra

      Hi ashvini,
      Thank you! You can definitely make a savory version of this. Just swap the sweet flavor out with the spices and herbs.
      Do away with vanilla essence and include
      1/2 tsp – pepper powder
      1 tsp – dried or fresh thyme
      1 tsp – dried or fresh oregano
      1 clove of Garlic
      1 tsp – dry mustard powder
      Garnish with chopped coriander.
      You could also top it off with some fried eggs and some grated cheese.
      Do let us know if you give this a try and share your masterpiece 🙂

  • Sangeeta

    I will try this recipe with my son for sure 😊

    • Divya rabindra

      Hi Sangeeta,
      Great! Let us know how your son liked it.

We went out there with our handycams and whatever cameras we were able to get our hands into and filmed each others like a bunch of friends do. Only plan was to make a movie out of it. That went on for over 60 days last winter. Cant tell you much about the skiing before you watch it.

Unlikely Catholic Revolt: Tiny Order of French Nuns

Tiny order threatens to renounce vows rather than accept Rome's decision to replace their leader

(Newser) – The Vatican has an unusual dilemma after nearly all the nuns in a tiny French religious order threatened to renounce their vows rather than accept the Holy See's decision to remove their superior. The sisters argue that the Vatican commissioners sent to replace their superior general, the niece of the order's founder, have no understanding of their way of life or spirituality. The church's conclusion—in a summary of its investigation—is that the Little Sisters of Marie, Mother of the Redeemer are living "under the tight grip" of an "authoritarian" superior and feel a "serious conflict of loyalty," reports the AP. The standoff marks an extraordinary battle between the Vatican and the 39 nuns, most in their 60s and 70s, who run homes for the aged in rural western and southern France. Their threat comes at a time when the Catholic Church can hardly spare them, with the number of sisters plummeting.

The unlikely revolt had been brewing for years but erupted in 2017, when the Vatican suspended the Little Sisters' government and ordered the superior, Mother Marie de Saint Michel, removed. The Vatican says local church investigations in 2010 and 2016 found excessive authoritarianism in her rule and serious problems of governance. As the standoff escalated, 34 of the 39 nuns issued an extraordinary declaration last month saying they had no choice but to ask to be relieved of their vows. "We are not making this sacrifice lightly," they wrote. "We wish to remain in total communion with the church but we cannot signify more clearly, or more painfully either, our incapacity in conscience to obey what we are commanded to do." Their plight has garnered sympathy. A French support group claims to have 3,900 signatures for a petition demanding the immediate restoration of the order's central government. Read more here.

Ashington unlucky to lose scrappy game at Wallsend

Ashington were desperately unlucky to suffer a narrow 10-8 defeat at Wallsend on Saturday in a scrappy affair.

The highlights of a poor first half spoilt by the pouring rain were a well taken Wallsend try and the Ashington veteran Duncan Henderson selling an outrageous dummy as he peeled of the side of a ruck.

Late in the first half a strong run by Dickinson, who had an excellent game, resulted in a kickable penalty. But Ash opted to go for touch and lost the lineout five metres out.

The rain eased during half-time and Ash found themselves under early second half pressure after giving away a series of penalties.

This was relieved by a weaving run by Ryan Dodds from deep in his own 22 which ended in a scrum five metres from the Wallsend line.

This enabled Ashington to enjoy a period of sustained pressure and winger James Jones went over in the corner for a try after a quickly taken tap penalty by Hudson and pass from Johnson.

Wallsend fought back well and scored a try in the corner, despite a great Jones tackle, to give the home side a 10-5 lead.

During a strong final 20 minutes, Ash opted to run a couple of kickable penalties before replacement Thompson struck a well taken penalty and was unlucky with a near miss, that would have won the game for Ashington two minutes from the end.
