KASHGAR, China - Hundreds of security personnel lined the streets to head off any disruption as the Olympic torch relay resumed Wednesday in western China’s restive Muslim region of Xinjiang.
Black-gloved security agents jogged alongside the torch as it wound through the streets of Kashgar, an ancient Silk Road city near the borders with Central Asia, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Foreign journalists were not allowed along the route, where cheering bystanders shouted “Go China!” under sunny skies.
Also Wednesday, Olympic torch relay organizers said the flame will make a one-day stop in Tibet’s capital of Lhasa on Saturday.
That leg has been shrouded in secrecy because of political sensitivities surrounding Tibet. The route has been criticized by Tibet activist groups who see it as an attempt by Beijing to symbolize its control over the Himalayan region.

I think everybody has probably heard about Canada’s Human Rights Beef with Catholics by now. 
Fortunately, Father Alphonse de Valk is not giving in.  Unfortunately, that steadfastness and fortitude come with a pretty big price tag: it recently hit $20,000 CAD and only stands to get bigger.
Please, if at all possible, go over to Catholic Insight and make a donation to help with the legal defense of Father de Valk and his work.  And please spread the word!
May Father de Valk, his lawyers, and all Canadian Catholics receive the grace of God, the protection of St. Michael the Archangel, and the prayers of Our Lady, of St. Thomas More, and of St. Isaac Jogues and the Canadian Martyrs.

Here’s a quick excerpt
On April 10, 2008 we highlighted the story about the tetra pak billionaires and their cocaine habit. Many of the BU family wondered how this family could be travelling to Barbados on a frequent basis and our Royal Barbados Police Force not take an interest in their stay on the island. These people appear to be constantly in conflict with the law in the United Kingdom because of their interest in cocaine.
Thanks to our BU family member x we can highlight the fact that UK police force appear not to be intimidated by the Rausing billionaires. Commissioner Darwin Dottin and AG Fruendel Stuart please take note.

A Thief in the Night

Here’s a quick excerpt
For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. 1 Thessalonians 5:2
Jesus is NOT coming as a thief…
That is to say, Jesus is not coming as a thief in the night for believers, but for those who have been led astray. The very next verse tells us who ‘they’ are–those who say, “Peace and safety!” or in other words, those who have been duped into a false sense of security or naivety outside of a faith in Christ Jesus. These are the ones who will be caught off guard, who, when Christ comes will react as if He were a house burglar. When ruin comes there way, there will be no escape.
Sons of Light
We cannot be overtaken by this Day because we are in His light; sons of His inheritance. However there is a warning lest we (might) become lax, […]
