He has not been officially confirmed yet; if that happens will there be protests about the casting?

Ground Zero for Reform?
After the personnel change-up at Newman Hall, I was pleasantly surprised to see this event advertised on Facebook - Learn Chant with Fr. Samuel F. Weber, O.S.B. at Newman Hall. It is an initiative of the Benedict XVI Institute for Sacred Music and Divine Worship (FB). How many locals (Cal students and residents of Berkeley) will be in attendance? Those who have "progressed" beyond the liturgical traditions of the Roman rite may not have any reason to attend, but will they raise a stink about this?

about Kwasi Enin. What "prestigious" [neo-]Yankee institution wouldn't want an intelligent African(-American) as one of their students for display? Everyone feels good as a result of the bargain, no?

Mr. Enin will appear on Letterman. CS Monitor. Heavy. Time.

I stopped following Mark Bittman on FB for a reason... namely, because he adopted a more aggressive vegan stance, one that was hostile to paleo.

Why Would a "Conservative" Waste Time on This?
True Detective, Breaking Bad, I can understand. Maybe even Mad Men. But How I Met Your Mother?
A First Things writer has a post on the 'comedy' series. Engaging with [mass] culture? For what purpose? Are there limits to this enterprise, or is it just an attempt by "intellectuals" to get paid for doing little, rather than doing the heavy lifting of bringing about civic reform?
Sitcoms that promote fornication as a road to sex should be avoided - "good intentions" and all do not legitimize the story-telling or the indoctrination.
A TV Guide blogger on Monday's episode which was apparently such a disappointment to so many of the show's fans.

Official Recognition Down the Road?
NLM: Dominican Rite Missa Cantata in Rome by Gregory DiPippo
What is the state of relations between the FSVF and the Dominicans? Is this the first time a "high-ranking" Dominican has officially been part of a FSVF liturgy?
Officials of the General Curia of the Friars
The Dominican Procurator General
This Saturday, April 5th, the feast of St. Vincent Ferrer, the Fraternity of St. Peter’s Roman parish, Santissima Trinità dei Pellegrini, will have a sung Mass in the Dominican Rite.
