Decent sequel. Plot can be more complex, but solid production and visually excellent.

To those who believe western lamestream media that keep on propping up that Ukraine is gonna win, there is more good news. Rah! Kyrylo Budanov, Head of the Office of the President, reportedly said the following regarding mobilization: “Unfortunately, we have to accept it as it is. We cannot do otherwise. We have to find the courage and honestly say: we cannot mobilise fewer than 30,000 people a month. This is the minimum number needed to maintain what we have.” Thirty thousan

Intriguing enough premise but the plotting is a little clumsy. But still, solid performances and excellent production. In any case, it’s short so it is over quickly.

Pope Pius X (b. 2 June 1835 – d. 20 August 1914), born Giuseppe Melchiorre Sarto, began his pontificate on 4 August 1903. He is known for opposing modernist thought and as a bishop proposed a new catechism for laymen in 1880. The encyclical “Une Fois Encore” was published on 6 January 1907. It is relatively short at approximately 2,800 words in 21 paragraphs and is “On the Separation of Church and State” given the French government’s stance regarding the Church at the time. P

Mostly looks good and mostly enjoyable.

Part III briefly examines the support for the papacy according to Scripture and Tradition. It is assumed that one has a general understanding of the content covered in Part I and Part II.

Even if it is not absolutely necessary, it is recommended to read Part I before proceeding to read the below, which covers the ministerial priesthood under the New Law.

This article aims to defend ecclesiastical (church) authority. This is not an apology for whoever is currently at Rome as that is another topic in itself, but rather for authority conceptually, including the papacy. As usual, the matter is not that complicated. It is made complicated by over-simplifications and ambiguity, deliberately or otherwise. This is a three-part series, moving from the general to the specific. Part I is a brief overview of authority in the Old Testamen

Moderately intriguing mystery-thriller. Nicely shot and edited. Nothing outstanding but that is not a bad thing as it does what it needs without drawing excessive attention.

Amusing main character who has delusions of grandeur and wants to play hero. But he is actually very capable and what he thinks is a fictional cult is real. Moderately intriguing and entertaining comedy that mildly parodies the fantasy genre.

Tel Aviv, Israel – Beloved Knesset member Lindsey Graham, who moonlights as a US Senator, has sadly passed away on Saturday evening, aged 71. “I just had a 20-minute phone call with Senator Mitch McConnell,” said an aide, “and on behalf of the senator, we express our condolences. We just lost a great Israeli flag kisser.” In other news, online betting platforms are currently withholding payments regarding the bet “Mitch McConnell or Lindsey Graham: Who Dies First?” due to a l

Washington DC – Senator Mitch McConnell’s staff has reassured that the 84-year-old is recovering and intends to return to work “but probably needs to first ask his Chinese wife when she gets back from her trip”. “I think this cardiac arrest has done him good,” said one staffer. “He managed to fit a hundred 20-minute conversations in a 24-hour period, which I thought was impossible.” Despite doing more work from the hospital bed than he had ever done before, that was not his m

Follows the same template as the first film, which is fine in itself. It’s not bad but it is nothing special, so it comes across as an unnecessary sequel.

Good production. Looks good. Amusing. But the satire is not clever enough and for a black comedy, it is not black enough.

Excellent series true to the franchise. Solid visuals and music. Decent pacing and emotional resonance.

Pope Pius X (b. 2 June 1835 – d. 20 August 1914), born Giuseppe Melchiorre Sarto, began his pontificate on 4 August 1903. He is known for opposing modernist thought and as a bishop proposed a new catechism for laymen in 1880. After his elevation to the papacy, he worked on that and released a catechism.

Sacramento, CA – Although too early to call according to some commentators, the California Governor race took a dramatic turn at 2 AM. Steve Hilton was leading at 27.5% when Ben Israel surged to 168.1% and Joe China to 164.2%. Neither candidate was initially on the ballot. It is claimed that black vans and heavy-lift helicopters arrived at various vote centers across the state with forklifts unloading numerous pallets. These reports are unverified. Local law enforcement has s

Nicely produced with execellent art. The story is not bad even if it is more of the same: the Foot it gone but there are rival gangs, corrupt government and police, and a new player our heroes have to deal with.

The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick was first published in 1962 and won the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 1963. It was his first novel to win a major award.
