Cardinal's arrival in New Zealand marked by miscues
http://www.catholicsentinel.org/main.asp?SectionID=2&SubSectionID=34&ArticleID=22671

Station XV: Episode 73 — Interviews, intervention and interlocution
(October 15, 2013)

It was one of the most newsworthy moments of Pope Francis's
pontificate — the interview heard around the world. When the Holy
Father sat down with fellow Jesuit priest Fr Antonio Spadaro, the two
discussed a wide range of topics, and much of what was spoken about
became water-cooler conversation around the world. James, Don and
Gavin chat about that interview, Pope Francis's intervention to save
lives in Argentina a couple of decades ago and Pope Benedict's
decision to write a letter to a journalist who had questioned the
former Pope's efforts to combat abuse. Those stories and more in this
month's episode of The 15th Station.

ALL THINGS CATHOLIC - John L. Allen Jr

Germany; Lefebvrists; papal cold calls; Legionaries; and Lampedusa
http://ncronline.org/blogs/all-things-catholic/germany-lefebvrists-papal-cold-calls-legionaries-and-lampedusa

Over the centuries, the first tremors of earthquakes in Catholicism
often have been felt in Germany. That nation gave birth to the
Protestant Reformation, and it was also where the theological energies
that erupted in the Second Vatican Council began to swirl.
Given that history, it's worth casting an eye on Germany these days
to track the fallout of the "Francis effect." Two recent storylines
are intriguing in that regard...
