Hide like a rhino... a single bounder!
Is it just me... but ever since TV3 started using the Suoerman logo as their graphic iteration for the "Super City" - Rodney Hide has been looking more like Lex Luthor!if TV3 persists witth this blatant copyright infringement will it lead to Auckland blowing up or being placed in a bottle?
And look at the way the Superman franchise is being carved up currently...
Warners lose their rights to make movies in 2013 they better fast track any new movies......and the estate of co-creator, Jerry Siegel,
now control depictions of Superman's origins from the planet Krypton, his parents Jor-El and Lora, Superman as the infant Kal-El, the launching of the infant Superman into space by his parents as Krypton explodes and his landing on Earth in a fiery crash.
While DC comics retain
...other elements like Superman's ability to fly, the term kryptonite, the Lex Luthor and Jimmy Olsen characters, Superman's powers and expanded origins
bugger this fantasy lark for a game of soldiers then - Rodney best be careful what he wishes for... and the rest of us mere mortals must be grateful and hope for as little collateral damage
as possible...yrs kryptonically

Maybe the Benedictionary is Papal Bull...?
Not speaking Latin myself, my translation of Caritas in Veritate is Love in Truth.
.. not being a Latin speaker also, I deferred to the Vatican's interpretation - when in Rome and all that...
"VATICAN CITY, 7 JUL 2009 (VIS) - Given below is a summary of Benedict XVI's new Encyclical "Caritas in veritate" (Charity in Truth) on integral human development in charity and truth."
I think their take is that Charity is Love given and received - the complete package - no energy loss - pure physics!
Though I don't think they are that big on pure science - ask Father George Coyne.yrs heliocentrically
