We're from West Albany...and I was twelve years old when I discovered, to my horror, that we were of French descent, and not Italian! I had every reason to believe that we were Italian...all of my friends qwere Italian, and I myself could speak more than a little of it. The Scaringe family is, and always will be, close to my heart. I have these memories of St. Francis de Sales church, where I married in 1968, and Our Lady of Mount Carmel Society festas, and...how I do miss my Irish-American mother! She was exactly like the actress Maureen O'Hara. Exactly! Things are very bad for me, now, and I don't know what's going to happen...but, whatever comes, I will take with me into the next life my sacred memories of Weat Albany!Willy dAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26394149.post-37740732413388942942009-09-28T21:11:49.616-04:002009-09-28T21:11:49.616-04:00I'm glad to see your blog up to date today, I&...I'm glad to see your blog up to date today, I'd wondered what happened to you.<br /> <br />Nice art.<br /> <br /> <br />You are living proof of what my photo prof/advisor toldme (60 years ago!!)<br />A good reporter makes a good news photographer and <br /> a good news photographer makes a good reporter.<br />All about grasping what you see, eh.<br /> <br />RichardRosemary Armaohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00519852269997131261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26394149.post-64013245750228273932009-08-21T06:26:26.186-04:002009-08-21T06:26:26.186-04:00This is beautiful Rosemary!

After the apparitions of Our Lady in Medjugorje began and the pastor of Medjugorje was put in prison by the communists, Fr. Tomislav Vlasic was assigned to St. James parish in Medjugorje. In September, 1984 he left Medjugorje and in 1985 was assigned to the parish in Vitina (with all priestly faculties - to preach, to hear confessions, celebrate Mass, etc., ie., when he left, he was in good standing with the Church). He was never formally designated pastor of St. James parish. Parish records state that Fr. Tomislav Pervan served as pastor in Medjugorje from 1982 through 1988. Fr. Tomislva Vlasic moved to Italy in 1987 and in 1992 joined the Italian Franciscan Province of Abbruzzo. All these years he has not been a member of the Franciscan Province of Herzegovina. It appears he decided to go on a different path in the mid 80’s, having been heavily influenced by a German woman who had come to Medjugorje, Agnes Heupel, who claimed to be a visionary, and with whom he formed his own community in 1987. During this time he tried forcing one of the visionaries of Medjugorje, Marija Pavlovic, to publicly state that Our Lady supported his “spiritual marriage” with Agnes Heupel and the new way of life of his community. To the contrary, Marija’s conscience forced her to write a public statement on July 11, 1988, disavowing any connection with him or with his community: “I repeat that I never received from the Gospa, nor gave Fr. Tomislav or anyone else, a confirmation of the program of Fr. Tomislav and Agnes Heupel.” Though Fr. Vlasic would later build a house outside of Medjugorje behind the hill of Crnica, between the village of Surmanc and Bijakovici, he, himself, kept distant from Medjugorje and was never involved in any activities of the parish. The fact is that in the mid 80’s Fr. Vlasic decided to go his own way and since then none of the visionaries of Medjugorje have had any contact with him. Let’s not forget that during this time the events of Medjugorje were situated between a hostile communist government and a bishop who had stated publicly, “I want Medjugorje destroyed!” (and that anyone purporting Our Lady was appearing in Medjugorje deserved the lowest place in hell)! During a filmed interview in his Episcopal residence in February 1989, in response to a question, “Who is the pastor in Medjugorje?” the Bishop replied, “I don’t know, I think it’s the fat one!” Medjugorje has not been cared for by the local Ordinary – though literally hundreds of bishops throughout the world are testifying to incredible graces having come into their own dioceses through Medjugorje. Though vulnerable itself from attacks on all sides – lacking protection that should have been in place – this little parish has continued going forward, renewing the Church! The parish – and visionaries – have been nothing less than heroic! Let’s not forget that early on in her messages Our Lady had warned that Satan left many places in the world in order to focus his attack against Medjugorje – to try to thwart what God was doing there. All those who continue answering Our Lady’s call to be her apostles are vulnerable to his attacks. Don’t be distracted by what you might read in the media. Present developments are a good sign. Rome is finally beginning to give some shepherding to Medjugorje – to take seriously protecting what God is doing there. Good things lie ahead!Timothyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15892829980601958902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26394149.post-49386192329581055692009-07-27T21:31:21.140-04:002009-07-27T21:31:21.140-04:00It's probably the only action he's gotten ...It's probably the only action he's gotten in awhile.Julie Birdnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26394149.post-35392675434892990452009-07-21T09:53:17.420-04:002009-07-21T09:53:17.420-04:00Hello!

I was proud when she won just about every debate, and was annoyed at the media's treatment of her. Nobody worried about what kind of suits the males wore nor cleavage for godsake! Hillary was taken seriously and had a legitimate shot at winning the nomination. Why when she was just hitting her stride after a few initial mis-steps that resulted from bad management and her winning states long after the pundits had written her off - why then was it decided she couldn't win? Hillary proved she could win under impossible conditions. Her concession speech was to treasure - her wonderful remark about 18 million cuts in the glass ceiling. But it also brought tears to my eyes and like your mother - I can't simply give my vote to Obama when I know that it was his supporters who steamrolled over her and crushed her candidacy too soon. Hillary convinced me that she cared about us older women who devotedly supported her and she cared about all women and knew our strengths and pain. I didn't see Bill as any liability either - things were fine with this country when he was president and I did enough traveling to know how well respected Bill was in Europe...Probably you don't have too many old broads reading your blog and surely none as mouthy as this one. love, MaryRosemary Armaohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00519852269997131261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26394149.post-57613601874107545742008-07-01T16:18:00.000-04:002008-07-01T16:18:00.000-04:00From Mom: hope that this has proved to you that m...From Mom: hope that this has proved to you that my system of being on time is certainly better than your haphazard way of doing things!<BR/> <BR/>It reminded me -- do you remember -- the episode of "I Love Lucy" when she missed the boat going to Europe and had to be dropped off onto the ship from a helicopter?Rosemary Armaohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00519852269997131261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26394149.post-24509094255454178982008-05-29T20:46:00.000-04:002008-05-29T20:46:00.000-04:00I toured Denmark for two weeks with my then-boyfri...I toured Denmark for two weeks with my then-boyfriend, whose mother had been Danish.
