Ladybugs are Catholic! During the Middle Ages, crops were saved from a plague of pests after people prayed to the Virgin Mary. A swarm of red, black-spotted insects arrived and devoured the threat. They were named Our Lady’s Bugs – now simply called ladybugs. pic.twitter.com/tMZbyYmPn0

The brilliant Peter Kreeft—a philosopher and Catholic convert from Calvinism—tells this hilarious story about how Mother Theresa helped convert former Anglican (and former atheist) Malcolm Muggeridge, one of the great intellectuals of the 20th century. pic.twitter.com/hx7dRzqMS2

In chessy news, I have not been closely following the “Freestyle” tournament in Las Vega
s. I looked today at what is going on. Alas, the unlikable Hans Neimann has been doing well and now faces Levon Aronian. In the lower bracket I see my guy Wesley So defeated Sam Sevian, Nodirbek and now faces Magnus.

Black to move and mate in 4.
[NB: I’ll hold comments with solutions ’till the next day so there won’t be “spoilers” for others.]
I love Mother Teresa so much. Her life is the biggest inspiration to me. Nonstop service for others. There is a book written by a priest named Fr. Leo who accompanied her on many trips and was her translator. The book is all personal stories that he witnessed. So moving, but also, so many funny one liners like the one in that video. A bishop came to visit her in Calcutta and the room available for him was at their house for the dying. She told him, “You can stay there. But please don’t die. We can’t afford a funeral for a bishop.”
That’s very good news about the Washington “law,” which was really not a law but an act of violence. As usual, there were apostate Catholics at the bottom of it, especially the governor who signed off on it.
” DOJ Announces They Have Arrested Man Responsible For Creating Microsoft OneDrive”
Ah, if only this were true. Could evil hackers messing about in an un-up-dated Windows10 PC have wreaked any worse havoc with my files than OneDrive has done?
O.K., maybe, I suppose. But it would be a close run thing.
