Father Mychal F. Judge OFM - "The Fireman's Friar"

2009-09-10T17:16:00.008-04:00

Father Mychal F. Judge, OFM

Chaplain to the New York City Fire Department

[born Robert Emmet Judge on May 11, 1933; died September 11, 2001]

Died in the Lord's Service.

.
"God Grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change…
the Courage to change the things that I can …
And the Wisdom to know the difference."
.
On the other side was a prayer that Judge had written.
.
"Lord, take me where You want me to go
Let me meet who You want me to meet
And keep me out of Your way."
.
- Father Mychal Judge, OFM
.
Father Mychal F. Judge, OFM was a busy Franciscan priest who dedicated his life to serving God's people. He is known for his work with the homeless, recovering addicts, AIDS patients, and his work as chaplain to the New York City Fire Department.
.
On September 11, 2001, Father Mychal rushed from the friary at Saint Francis of Assisi Church to the scene of the World Trade Center attacks.
.
After administering last rites to a firefighter, Father Mychal was hit by debris and killed. He became the first officially recorded fatality following the attack.
.
During his life, Father Mychal spent much of his time ministering to the homeless on the Breadline at St. Francis of Assisi Church in New York City. This is one of the many places where he found God - in the hurting, the broken, the suffering, and the poor.
.
His dedication to homeless men, women and children has become a calling to us that manifests itself as Mychal's Message.

Year 7 - Day 5

Novena To The Divine Mercy
According To The Diary Of Saint Maria Faustina
( 1209 - 1229 )

Jesus, I Trust In You!

You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fount of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us.

Fifth Day
Today bring to Me
THE SOULS OF THOSE WHO HAVE SEPARATED
THEMSELVES FROM THE CHURCH

Most Merciful Jesus, Goodness Itself, You do not refuse light to those who seek it of You. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who have separated themselves from Your Church. Draw them by Your light into the unity of the Church, and do not let them escape from the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart; but bring it about that they, too, come to glorify the generosity of Your mercy.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who have separated themselves from Your Son's Church, who have squandered Your blessings and misused Your graces by obstinately persisting in their errors. Do not look upon their errors, but upon the love of Your own Son and upon His bitter Passion, which He underwent for their sake, since they, too, are enclosed in His Most Compassionate Heart. Bring it about that they also may glorify Your great mercy for endless ages.

Amen.

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion--inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.

Amen.

Oblate Profile: Blessed Jozef Cebula, O.M.I.

2009-09-05T21:35:00.004-04:00

Oblates
Sept. - Oct. 2005. - Volume 62 - Number 5
.
. Blessed Jozef Cebula, O.M.I.
. Born: March 23, 1902, Malnia, Poland
. Ordination: June 5, 1927
. Ministry: Taught in Minor Seminary, Lubliniec, 1923-1931, where he was Superior, 1931-1937; Superior & Novice Master, Markowice 1937-1941.
. Death: Arrested by Nazi SS April 2, 1941; shot “while trying to escape” May 9, 1941
. Beatification: June 13, 1999, Warsaw, Poland
.
Unconditional love for God was demonstrated by the life – and death – of Blessed Jozef Cebula, a Polish Oblate killed in the Mauthausen concentration camp near Austria during World War II.
.
His priestly ministry was his life’s work, even if his final 21 days on Earth were lived in misery. On April 18, 1941, he was taken by the Nazis to the Mauthausen concentration camp, where he was harassed simply because he was a priest.
.
Fr. Cebula was forced to carry 60-pound rocks from a quarry to a camp two miles away. He had to climb a 144-step staircase called the Death Stairs, while being beaten and insulted by his tormentors. Two arduous trips were all he could make.
.
Summoning his remaining strength, Fr. Cebula suddenly raised his voice and said: “It is not you who are in charge. God will judge you.” He was ordered to run with the rock on his back, towards the camp’s barbed wire fence. A guard fired with his submachine gun and declared that Jozef “was shot while attempting to escape.” His body was taken to the crematorium and burnt. It was Friday, May 9, 1941.
.
Blessed Cebula was born into a modest family on March 23, 1902. As a youth, he suffered from tuberculosis and was in fact declared incurable. After an unexpected recovery, he visited an Oblate shrine where he shared his story with Fr. Jan Pawolik, O.M.I., who later died in Auschwitz. Fr. Pawolek advised Jozef to study with the Oblates at a newly established Oblate seminary.
.
Following ordination to the Oblate priesthood in 1927, Fr. Cebula spent much of his ministry teaching Oblate seminarians. In 1937, he became novice master at Markowice where his humility and gentleness were noteworthy. When the Nazis occupied Poland, they declared loyalty to the Church illegal. All Church associations were forbidden, and many priests were arrested.
.
On May 4, 1940, the Oblate novices at Markowice were arrested by the Nazis and sent to the concentration camp at Dachau, Bavaria. Fr. Cebula was able to continue his priestly ministries in secrecy, despite the ban on it, for nearly a year before being arrested and detained at the Mauthausen camp.
.
Known for his humility, Fr. Jozef was a man of quiet prayer with a deep spiritual life. He radiated peace in the very middle of the death camp, even when tormented by the Nazis. In recognition of his heroic life and death, Fr. Cebula was beatified by Pope John Paul II during a ceremony held in Poland on June 13, 1999.
.
Today, Fr. Cebula’s Oblate Cross and a stone from the quarry at Mauthausen, a testament to his forced labor, rest in the church at Markowice. It is the same church where, near the end of his life, Cebula celebrated the sacraments in secret. It is also the site of the novitiate where he spent the last four years of his life as novice master. We know his spirit rests there, in the place he once called home.

Jesus I Trust In You!

You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fount of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us.

Fourth Day
Today bring to Me
THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE IN GOD
AND THOSE WHO DO NOT YET KNOW ME

Most compassionate Jesus, You are the Light of the whole world. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who do not believe in God and of those who as of yet do not know You. Let the rays of Your grace enlighten them that they, too, together with us, may extol Your wonderful mercy; and do not let them escape from the abode which is Your Most Compassionate Heart.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who do not believe in You, and of those who as yet do not believe in You, and of those who as yet do not know You, but who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Draw them to the light of the Gospel. These souls do not know what great happiness it is to love You. Grant that they, too, may extol the generosity of Your mercy for endless ages.

Amen.

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion--inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ:

Praised be Jesus!

I am pleased to announce our newest CD, "Our Lady of Kibeho," which we co-produced with Immaculee Ilibagiza, has just been released. Some of you may have heard of Immaculee as she is the New York Times best selling author of "Left to Tell" as well as "Led by Faith" and her newest book, "Our Lady of Kibeho."

We were blessed to have worked with her on this project as this is the ONLY approved apparition of Our Lady in Africa by the Vatican! I highly recommend this 3 CD Set! It includes Our Lady's messages given to the visionaries in Kibeho, a captivating interview with Immaculee, as well as the Rosary of Seven Sorrows, and many beautiful songs.

To obtain this recording or to find out more information, please visit Immaculee's website at www.immaculee.com. There you will also find information on her other CDs and books. I pray it may bless you and all those that listen to it!

Most Merciful Jesus, from the treasury of Your mercy You impart Your graces in great abundance to each and all. Receive us into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart and never let us escape from it. We beg this grace of you by that most wondrous love for the heavenly Father with which Your Heart burns so fiercely.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon faithful souls, as upon the inheritance of Your Son. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, grant them Your blessing and surround them with Your constant protection. Thus may they never fail in love or lose the treasure of the holy faith, but rather, with all the hosts of Angels and Saints, may they glorify Your boundless mercy for endless ages.

Prayer For The Unborn Child
.
Almighty God, our Father,
you who have given us life
and intended us to have it forever,
grant us your blessings.
.
Enlighten our minds to an awareness
and to a renewed conviction
that all human life is sacred
because it is created
in your image and likeness.
.
Help us to teach by word
and the example of our lives
that life occupies the first place,
that human life is precious
because it is the gift of God
whose love is infinite.
.
Give us the strength to defend human life
against every influence
or action that threatens or weakens it,
as well as the strength
to make every life more human
in all its aspects.
.
Give us the grace...
.
When the sacredness of life
before birth is attacked,
to stand up and proclaim
that no one ever has the authority
to destroy unborn life.
.
When a child is described as a burden
or is looked upon only as a means
to satisfy an emotional need,
to stand up
and insist that every child is a unique
and unrepeatable gift of God,
a gift of God
with a right to a loving
and united family.
.
When the institution of marriage
is abandoned to human selfishness
or reduced to a temporary conditional arrangement
that can easily be terminated,
to stand up and affirm
the indissolubility of the marriage bond.
.
When the value of the family is threatened
because of social and economic pressure,
to stand up and reaffirm
that the family is necessary
not only for the private good of every person,
but also for the common good of every society,
nation and state.
.
When freedom is used to dominate the weak,
to squander natural resources and energy,
to deny basic necessities to people,
to stand up and affirm
the demands of justice and social love.
.
Almighty Father,
give us courage to proclaim the supreme dignity
of all human life and to demand
that society itself give its protection.
We ask this in your name,
through the redemptive act
of your Son and in the Holy Spirit.
.
Amen.

Year 7 - Day One

Novena To The Divine Mercy
According to the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina
(1209-1229)

Jesus, I Trust In You!

You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fount of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us.

Amen.

First Day

Today Bring To Me
ALL MANKIND, ESPECIALLY ALL SINNERS

Most Merciful Jesus, whose very nature it is to have compassion on us and to forgive us, do not look upon our sins but upon our trust which we place in Your infinite goodness. Receive us all into the abode of Your Most compassionate Heart, and never let us escape from it. We beg this of You by Your love which unites You to the Father and the Holy Spirit.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon all mankind and especially upon poor sinners, all enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion show us Your mercy, that we may praise the omnipotence of Your mercy for ever and ever.

Amen.

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion--inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.

Amen.

SOULS WHO HAVE BECOME LUKEWARM

Most compassionate Jesus, You are Compassion Itself. I bring lukewarm souls into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart. In this fire of Your pure love let these tepid souls, who, like corpses, filled You with such deep loathing, be once again set aflame. O Most Compassionate Jesus, exercise the omnipotence of Your mercy and draw them into the very ardor of Your love, and bestow upon them the gift of holy love, for nothing is beyond Your power.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon lukewarm souls who are nonetheless enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Father of Mercy, I beg You by the bitter Passion of Your Son and by His three-hour agony on the Cross: Let them, too, glorify the abyss of Your mercy.

Amen.

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion - inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.

Amen.

Subject: Code Amber Displaced by Hurricane Gustav
- We Need Your Help
From: "Code Amber"

Hello Rev. Marguerite Earhart,
.
We will occasionally send you news about changes and additions to http://codeamber.org .
.
Hello,On Sunday, August 31, we were forced to evacuate our Louisiana offices and move operations to a hotel on the panhandle of Florida. Some of you may remember our evacuation from Hurricane Katrina three years ago at which time we were in Florida for over two weeks. We probably will be able to return sooner this time as the damage is not as severe. However, our office in Louisiana has lost power, telephone and high speed Internet access indefinitely which, of course, we need to operate Code Amber.
.
As a result of our displacement, we are experiencing extraordinary Code Amber operating expenses. If you are able, please help Code Amber through this time of crisis by making a small donation. Any amount you are able to contribute will help us continue to operate while we are displaced.
.
Please help us keep Code Amber operating by contributing what ever you are able. Visit http://codeamber.org/index-1.php?nl0902
to make a contribution now, please.
.
Purchases of the Amber Stick Child Id device or the Safety Net Kids Child safety DVD also help with our expenses
http://codeamber.org/idkits.html?nl0902 for the Amber Stick
http://codeamber.org/video.html?nl0902 for the Video

Without you, what we have accomplished thus far would not have been possible.

Eighth Day
Today bring to Me
THE SOULS WHO ARE DETAINED IN PURGATORY

Most Merciful Jesus, You Yourself have said that You desire mercy; so I bring into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls in Purgatory, souls who are very dear to You, and yet, who must make retribution to Your justice. May the streams of Blood and Water which gushed forth from Your Heart put out the flames of Purgatory, that there, too, the power of Your mercy may be celebrated.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls suffering in Purgatory, who are enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. I beg You, by the sorrowful Passion of Jesus Your Son, and by all the bitterness with which His most sacred Soul was flooded: Manifest Your mercy to the souls who are under Your just scrutiny. Look upon them in no other way but only through the Wounds of Jesus. Your dearly beloved Son; for we firmly believe that there is no limit to Your goodness and compassion.

Amen.

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion--inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.

Seventh Day
Today bring to Me
THE SOULS WHO ESPECIALLY VENERATE AND
GLORIFY MY MERCY

Most Merciful Jesus, whose Heart is Love Itself, receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who particularly extol and venerate the greatness of Your mercy. These souls are mighty with the very power of God Himself. In the midst of all afflictions and adversities they go forward, confident of Your mercy; and united to You, O Jesus, they carry all mankind on their shoulders. These souls will not be judged severely, but Your mercy will embrace them as they depart from this life.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls who glorify and venerate Your greatest attribute, that of Your fathomless mercy, and who are enclosed in the Most compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls are a living Gospel; their hands are full of deeds of mercy, and their hearts, overflowing with joy, sing a canticle of mercy to You, O Most High! I beg You O God: Show them Your mercy according to the hope and trust they have placed in You. Let there be accomplished in them the promise of Jesus, who said to them that during their life, but especially at the hour of death, the souls who will venerate this fathomless mercy of His, He, Himself, will defend as His glory.

Amen.

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion-inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.

Today bring to Me
THE MEEK AND HUMBLE SOULS AND THE SOULS OF
LITTLE CHILDREN

Most Merciful Jesus, You Yourself have said, "Learn from Me for I am meek and humble of heart." Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven into ecstasy and they are the heavenly Father's favorites. They are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God; God Himself takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in Your Most Compassionate Heart, O Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of love and mercy.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek souls, upon humble souls, and upon little children who are enfolded in the abode which is the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to Your Son. Their fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Your very throne. Father of mercy and of all goodness, I beg You by the love You bear these souls and by the delight You take in them; bless the whole world, that all souls together may sing out the praises of Your mercy for endless ages.

Amen.

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion-inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.

.
Međugorje ([ˈmɛdʑu.ɡɔːrjɛ], roughly meh’-joo-gor-yeh) is a town located in Bosnia and Hercegovina, around 25 km southwest of Mostar and close to the border of Croatia. Today the town is best known due to alleged apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary which appeared to six Herzegovinian Catholics since 24 June 1981[1], and is now visited by pilgrims from around the entire world as a shrine.
.
The name Međugorje is of Slavic origin and it translates as "area between two mountains" in Bosnian. At an altitude of 200 metres above sea level, it has a mild Mediterranean climate. The town consists of an ethnically-homogeneous Bosnian Catholic population of over 4000, and the Catholic Parish (local administrative and religious area) consists of five neighbouring villages (Medjugorje, Bijakovići, Vionica, Miletina and Šurmanci).

According to the Web site of the Medjurgorje Shrine:
.
On 24 June 1981, at about 6 pm, six young parishioners from Medjugorje: Ivanka Ivanković, Mirjana Dragićević, Vicka Ivanković, Ivan Dragićević, Ivan Ivanković and Milka Pavlović, saw on the hill Crnica (on the place called Podbrdo) an apparition, a white form with a child in her arms. Surprised and scared, they did not approach.
.
The next day at the same time, 25 June 1981, four of them, Ivanka Ivanković, Mirjana Dragićević, Vicka Ivanković and Ivan Dragicević, felt strongly drawn towards the place where, the day before, they saw the One who they had recognised as Our Lady, or, in Croatian, Gospa. Marija Pavlović and Jakov Čolo joined them. The group of Medjugorje visionaries was formed. They prayed with Our Lady and talked to Her. From that day onward, they had daily apparitions, together or separately.

. Thought From The Bible
.
In Her messages, on several occasions, the Queen of Peace has called to the reading of Holy Scripture. According to Her words, the Bible
.
- encourages us to pray,
- gives us the understanding of Our Lady presence among us,
- enables us to understand the signs of the times,
- enables the Word of God to dwell in our hearts,
- shows how God loves his people and
- leads to the joy in the encounter with God who infinitely loves his creatures.
.
This page was created with the desire to help the friends of the Queen of Peace, through Our Lady’s messages, to better comprehend the Word of God revealed in the Bible.

Note: I noticed that in the two photos on Wikipedia one is listed as St. Jacobs, and the other is listed as St. James. I did a bit of a search, and found it to be St. James.

"Dear children! I call you to work on your personal conversion. You are still far from meeting with God in your heart. Therefore, spend all the more time in prayer and Adoration of Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Altar, for Him to change you and to put into your hearts a living faith and a desire for eternal life. Everything is passing, little children, only God is not passing. I am with you and I encourage you with love. Thank you for having responded to my call."

A Good Way To Donate Bibles To Africa

2008-03-27T20:34:00.000-04:00

It was revealed to me this evening a good way to donate Bibles to Africa. I belong to American Bible Society's Bible-A-Month Club. They send to me different things to the mail for me to additionally donate to.

This month is to Africa - Kenya.

Believe me when I tell you that the email stuff supposedly from Nigeria for instance are spam. Some people were hurt from them in trying to respond to the email when they actually tried to send the Bibles.

A better way to help different areas around the world to have Bibles is donating to American Bible Society or to the International Bible Society.

ABS's Bible-A-Month Club you can donate $4.00 per Bible each month to go somewhere in the world. They also translate Bibles into different languages as well.

The Lord showed me that this would be a good way to help.

I plan to make a donation for Africa towards Bibles.

This would be the best way to respond to the emails sent supposedly from Nigeria requesting Bibles.

"Dear children! With the time of Lent, you are approaching a time of grace. Your heart is like ploughed soil and it is ready to receive the fruit which will grow into what is good. You, little children, are free to choose good or evil. Therefore, I call you to pray and fast. Plant joy and the fruit of joy will grow in your hearts for your good, and others will see it and receive it through your life. Renounce sin and choose eternal life. I am with you and intercede for you before my Son. Thank you for having responded to my call."

H.Res. 847

2007-12-11T15:05:00.001-05:00

U.S. House to Consider Christmas Resolution
.
Our Washington, D.C. office informed us this morning that the House will consider a Resolusion recognizing the importance of Christmas and the Christian faith. H.Res. 847, introduced by Rep. King of Iowa, is on the House calendar for today and will need a 2/3 (290 votes) majority to pass.
.
Contact your representative to express your support for the Christmas Resolution (HR 847). You can get their contact information at:
http://www.house.gov/writerep/
.
The Resolution states in part:
.
Whereas Christmas, a holiday of great significance to Americans and many other cultures and nationalities, is celebrated annually by Christians throughout the United States and the world... Whereas on December 25 of each calendar year, American Christians observe Christmas, the holiday celebrating the birth of their savior, Jesus Christ...Whereas many Christians and non-Christians throughout the United States and the rest of the world, celebrate Christmas as a time to serve others: Now, therefore be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives-- (1) recognizes the Christian faith as one of the great religions of the world; (2) expresses continued support for Christians in the United States and worldwide; (3) acknowledges the international religious and historical importance of Christmas and the Christian faith; (4) acknowledges and supports the role played by Christians and Christianity in the founding of the United States and in the formation of the western civilization; (5) rejects bigotry and persecution directed against Christians, both in the United States and worldwide; and (6) expresses its deepest respect to American Christians and Christians throughout the world.
.
You can read the entire text of the Resolution on our web site in PDF format or on the House web site, where you can also see the list of sponsors and later you can find out how you representative votes.

To The Honorable Jim Gerlach
.
I am writing to you today concerning H.Res. 847, introduced by Rep. King of Iowa. I learned about this from the Liberty Counsel, and it is said that it is on the House calendar for today and will need a 2/3 (290 votes) majority to pass.
.
I am asking for your positive vote on this bill in order to uphold our American holiday of Christmas. I am finding that Christmas has been under fire for the past several years, and that there are influences - that constitute censorship - that wish to negate this fundamental American holiday from the fabric of our society.
.
I have been quite upset over this.
.
Please vote positively on this bill H.Res. 847 to uphold our American tradition.
.
Many blessings to you,
Assuredly in faith,
Mrs. Rev. M. Marguerite Earhart

Only through giving, little children, can you comprehend the gift of Jesus´ sacrifice on the Cross for each of you. Little children, give time to God that He may transform you and fill you with His grace, so that you may be a grace for others. For you, little children, I am a gift of grace and love, which comes from God for this peaceless world. Thank you for having responded to my call. "

Many of you opened your hearts and accepted my messages, but many have become lost on this way and have never come to know the God of love with the fullness of heart.

STILES CAUGHT!

2007-10-18T18:46:00.000-04:00

Chester "Chet" Arthur Stiles

NEW DEVELOPMENTS: Chester Arthur Stiles made his first court appearance on October 17, 2007 and authorities say he now faces up to 24 charges related to the alleged videotaped sexual assault of an underage girl and an incident involving the molestation of a 6-year-old girl in 2003.

.
Two days prior, cops in Nevada announced that the nationwide manhunt for Stiles ended when Henderson, Nev. cops arrested the 37-year-old fugitive during a routine traffic stop. Police tell AMW that two officers stopped a white Buick Century without plates at around 7 p.m. when Stiles reportedly gave the officers a California driver's license that looked nothing like him. One of the arresting officers, Mike Dye, stated in a press conference that Stiles admitted at the time of his arrest that "he was Mr. Stiles, the person wanted on America's Most Wanted."

I learned about this today, and like it a lot. On Live Search-IE7-I noticed that if you sign up and play selected games, and do Live Search on your account home page, you can have tickets which have value to a charity or school that you pick. I signed up for my local Church school.
.
It seems to be a good way to give to a favorite - listed - charity or school. (They have Christian schools listed.)

An Update:
.
I had trouble with Club.live.com
.
I had trouble with Adobe Flash Player - which you would need to play games on this site. Adobe doesn't have a fix for the problem at the moment.
.
I also had to in Internet Options allow the site under 'Privacy' as an ok site, and to allow cookies. When I made this change I haven't had any more trouble with the site - at least at the moment.

I'm reposting this since I have been able to overcome the bugs.I like 'Seekadoo' and 'Chicktionary' a lot.
