A clearinghouse post through June 19

Unfortunately, over the past couple days I've put together several lists of interesting blog topics, only to be taken away from the computer before I was able to actually publish them.

To remedy this situation.... I'll just post them here:

• "Vatican bans Dan Brown film Angels & Demons from Rome churches" - UK Times
• "New Dan Brown movie banned from filming in Rome’s Catholic churches" - CNA
• "USCCB: Research on embryos crosses 'moral line,' bishops warn" - John Allen
• "USCCB: Vatican may rule on embryo adoption" - John Allen
• "Step Aside Facebook, xt3 is Here" - Pope2008 (I'll take a closer look at this next week)
• "Pope Benedict to confirm 24 at World Youth Day Mass" - CNA
• "Holy Father appoints president for the Pontifical Academy for Life" - CNA

Tomorrow I leave Michigan and head to Missouri for a visit with my extended relations.
