A double-digit victory in a packed, loud arena. Toughness from a deep, experienced lineup that once again is driven to win an elusive national championship. And, peeking a few seasons ahead, he saw an SDSU team that he views more as a future Pac-12 partner than rival. Behind big man Graham Ike and guard Ryan Nembhard, Gonzaga displayed its size, speed and strength in beating Brian Dutcher's young, hobbled squad 80-67 on Monday night. The Bulldogs returned the favor after SDSU won 84-74 last December at The Kennel in Spokane, which ended their 59-game nonconference winning streak. Both teams reached the Sweet Sixteen last season. Gonzaga is the only team in the nation to reach the Sweet Sixteen the last nine seasons as the Bulldogs extended their streak of NCAA Tournament appearances to 25 straight. Back in Spokane on Wednesday night, the Zags improved to 5-0 by routing Long Beach State 84-41, no doubt firing up expectations in the Lilac City and beyond. In a college sports climate dominated by NIL and the transfer portal, the Zags are stacked. Of the 12 possible players who could return from last year, 10 did, including all four starters. They returned 81% of last season's scoring and 71% of their rebounding. Six of its top seven scorers are back, along with 81.4% of minutes played. “We're tougher,” Few said. “We're physically tougher, we're mentally tougher, at least so far in the season. A lot of the same guys from last year. That's what happens when you stick around a couple of years. “You've got to have both to be able to go on the road in a place like this and dig out wins," Few added. "That's one thing San Diego State is going to bring. They're going to bring physicality, they're going to bring great athleticism, they're going to challenge you in every facet of the game.” Hoops powerhouse Gonzaga announced on Oct. 1 that it will move from the West Coast Conference, where it has dominated for most of the last quarter-century, into a Pac-12 conference being rebuilt around football. Beginning with the 2026-27 academic year, Gonzaga will become the eighth member along with holdovers Washington State and Oregon State, and fellow newcomers Boise State, San Diego State, Fresno State, Utah State and Colorado State from the Mountain West. Story continues below video While not as dominant as the Zags, the Aztecs have been one of the West Coast's best programs for several years, first under Steve Fisher and then Dutcher, his longtime assistant who is in his eighth season as head coach. “They're just going to be such a great partner, because they value basketball and they support basketball,” said Few, who's in his 26th season as head coach. “They understand, when you have a national program like we both have, it pays unbelievable dividends to the university, to the community, to the city and the state, like the Northwest and down here. They get that. We're looking for other like-minded places to partner with us.” Few said he would often chat with Fisher about the possibility of the Zags and Aztecs playing in the same conference. Fisher watches Aztecs games with his wife, Angie, from the second row above Steve Fisher Court. “We talked about it forever,” Few said. “I'm happy for Dutch. He's doing a great job." San Diego State reached its first Final Four in 2023, when Lamont Butler's thrilling buzzer-beater against Florida Atlantic lifted the Aztecs into the national championship game, where they lost 76-59 to UConn. SDSU was routed again by UConn, 82-52, in last season's Sweet Sixteen, while Gonzaga lost to Purdue. Gonzaga opened this season with a 101-63 win against then-No. 8 Baylor at the Spokane Arena. It was Gonzaga’s biggest victory margin over a top-10 opponent, over a team it lost to in the 2021 national title game in Indianapolis. Nembhard, who had 19 points and 10 assists against the Aztecs, said the Zags “did a really good job, actually,” of handling the pressure of playing at Viejas Arena. "Every time they went on a little run and the crowd got loud, we did a good job staying composed and trusting our offensive sets.” Nembhard will be gone when the Bulldogs and Aztecs are in the Pac-12 together, but thinks "the rivalry will be great. This is a great program. I played them a couple of times at Creighton, and they always gave us a tough game. They have a great fan base, a great coach over there, and they play really hard. I think it’ll be a great rivalry to come.” ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up here .

Despite their separation, Amanda and Clive still co-parent their children amicably. They parted ways after 22 years of marriage in June 2022 but have teamed up again for a fresh More4 show titled 'Our Farm Next Door' in 2024, which sees them renovating a derelict farmhouse in Yorkshire, reports the Express . In a recent interview with The Times, Amanda, famous for 'Our Yorkshire Farm', spoke frankly about how they interact away from the cameras. "We're just getting on with it. We bicker. We argue. There's no romance. But we're all right with each other, and that's a blessing." She adds, "If you've gone through a separation, there's a reason you separated. And it's usually because you're not getting on. Who wants that? We're here and we've got a joint mission. It's about securing the future of the farm, the children." Amanda revealed that despite the split, Clive isn't exactly distant with their children frequently moving between Ravenseat, their family home, and the neighbouring holiday rental property. She conceded: "[Clive] is not very separated." During one touching moment in their new series, Amanda admitted their mutual frustrations: "I do his head in, he does my head in. But we're both basically on the same side." The decision to part ways was tough, as Amanda recollected when announcing their split back in 2022 via social media: "This hasn't been easy, but we both believe it's the right choice for the future of our family. "Although we are no longer a couple, we continue to work on the farm and co-parent together, with our number one priority the happiness and well-being of our children." She clarified to MailOnline: "There was nobody involved in the break-up with Clive and I don't understand why this is being suggested. I'm just getting on with my life as an independent woman, looking after the kids and my sheep." Clive, on the other hand, admitted: "If I'm honest about it, I didn't want to accept that I was no longer the breadwinner for our family. It was especially hard knowing that Amanda, who is a very beautiful woman, would be going out all dressed up to launches and events and meeting other people."

ishop Joseph Strickland did not always have a difficult relationship with Pope Francis. When Francis became the head of the Catholic Church, Strickland recalls admiring how welcoming the pope was. But as the began taking increasingly liberal stances, the bishop of Tyler, Texas, felt he could no longer stay silent. As Strickland began speaking out about Francis’ teachings, from the church’s positions towards divorcees and LGBTQ+ people to the question of whether priests should be allowed to marry, he quickly realized that “Politically, I was in a rather ” “There’s just a lot of politics in the world and it’s a reality that affects the church as well,” the bishop told in an interview. Although he said he has the action against him, Strickland said he worries that it could promote an “atmosphere of fear” within the church. Strickland’s removal last year was not only an unprecedented measure but also a sign of how the culture wars have polarized the church of 1.3 billion Catholics, with the battle lines nowhere more evident than in the United States. Under the leadership of Francis, the church has welcomed more people, including same-sex couples and divorced Catholics. The pope has also been outspoken on issues such as climate change, inequality, global capitalism and interfaith dialogue, all of which have meant a departure from the traditional teachings of the church. And while these positions have made Francis a hero among progressives and their allies, it has with traditionalists. The types of actions that Francis has taken against his conservative American critics have not been seen in centuries, said church historian and Villanova University professor Massimo Faggioli. “In terms of the relations between a pope and the United States, it’s unprecedented,” Faggioli, who is also the author of Pope Francis: A Voice for Mercy, Justice, Love, and Care for the Earth, told . “It started immediately after his election, and there was a clear sense that this pope was really different from the previous ones.” The Press Office of the Holy See did not respond to request for comment. Inaugurated in 2013, Francis wasted no time in breaking with the conservatism of his predecessor Benedict XVI. Early in his papacy, Francis startled traditionalists when he asked, “If someone is gay and he searches for the Lord and has good will, who am I to judge?” From there, it became increasingly clear that Francis was leading the church in a more progressive direction. Central to the conservative pushback is the way Francis has embraced LGBTQ+ people. Attitudes toward the community have softened under Francis, and culminated last year in the pope’s approval for a that said priests could to same-sex couples under certain circumstances. Opposition came from many parts of the world. Some 90 scholars and authors from around the globe published a joint letter calling on all Catholic cardinals and bishop to oppose the document from the Vatican. There was a particularly in one of the fastest growing regions for the church, Africa, where bishops called the idea “contrary to the will of God.” “This declaration has caused a shockwave,” wrote Congolese Cardinal Fridolin Ambongo in a strong sign of with Francis “In our context, this would cause confusion and would be in direct contradiction to the cultural ethos of African communities.” But Francis did not back down. In response, he slammed his opponents, calling it “hypocrisy” that those critics wouldn’t have objected to him giving a “blessing to an entrepreneur who perhaps exploits people,” but that they were “scandalized” by his blessing for “two people who love each other,” even if they’re of the same sex. The culture wars in the church have resonated globally, and the divide is easily depicted in two New York City where the vastly different opinions of Francis are separated by just two miles. Reverend Mark Hallinan of the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola, a Roman Catholic parish on Park Avenue in New York City’s Upper East Side, for one, is grateful that Francis has called on the church to put a “greater emphasis on and ” Hallinan told that some of his had been “very appreciative” of the outreach by Francis, but he does note there are some who have been “impatient with the pace of change,” acknowledging that the pope is not always “free to move as far as he might like.” The mood is distinctly different at the Church of the Holy Family in midtown Manhattan, where Reverend Gerald Murray refers to Francis by the nickname the “Pope of Surprises.” “Not all surprises are welcome,” Murray told . Murray said he took issue not only with open criticisms by Francis of “what he calls the ‘ideological’ opposition of some Catholics in the United States,” but also the pope’s refusal to “consider the substance of those criticisms.” In the face of repeated sniping from conservative bishops in the United States, Francis sent a clear message to his critics last year. Over the summer, he criticized some conservatives in the United States Catholic Church for saying they showed “a very strong, organized, and had replaced with political ideology. Toward the end of the year, he moved against them. Weeks after Strickland was relieved by the Vatican in a one-line statement, Francis took the unprecedented step of revoking Cardinal Raymond Burke’s right to a subsidized Vatican apartment and salary. Burke, a traditionalist cardinal from Wisconsin and one of the highest-ranking critics of Francis, received notice in late November that he was to begin paying market rate rents on the apartment or surrender it by the end of February. While the church never explicitly detailed why Strickland was being removed, nor reveal the findings of its monthslong investigation into his governance at the diocese in Tyler, Strickland believes he was ultimately because he was “not with the program.” After all, a month before the pope’s decision, the bishop had called it a “I loved what Pope Francis said early on in his pontifices because he spoke a lot about reaching out and welcoming people,” Strickland said. “But what troubles me is, as things have developed, it’s like, ‘Reach out to the marginalized and just leave them marginalized.’” “I just don’t see how you can really guard the deposit of faith but say, ‘Oh, the faith changes.’ That’s not what the Bible says,” he added. At his house in a rural area outside the town of Tyler, nearly four months after his removal, Strickland seems as calm and cheery as the sunny, yellow room he sits in. Even though he has had to leave the Catholic Diocese of Tyler himself, Strickland continues to tell his supporters, “Please don’t walk away from the church.” He has also continued to speak out, while saying he recognizes the pope’s challenges and respects his authority. In a strongly worded letter “to all of my brother bishops around the world, including Pope Francis,” Strickland told his fellow Catholics on February 29: “Let us stand with our brothers, who in the 20th century, were strong enough to speak against despotic rulers even though they were a minority voice in their time.” Scholars say that Francis when addressing ideological conflicts because he also must ensure that his cardinals and bishops do not question or over the legitimacy of his authority. Much like a president expects his cabinet to the pope expects his cardinals to serve as a physical and tangible link between the Vatican and Catholics around the world. Because Cardinal Burke had repeatedly questioned the teaching of Francis, the pope decided “he doesn’t have to subsidize [Burke] to do that,” National Catholic Reporter’s Vatican correspondent Christopher White, told . Unity in the church is not easy to achieve and some are pushing the pope to become more liberal. One of the most prominent progressive challenges to Francis is Germany’s Synodal Path, a group that has called for the pope to do more to include divorcees, women and LGBTQ+ people within the church. They have also asked the church to reconsider its current structure so that members can play a greater role by choosing bishops and even preaching at Masses. “There’s no question that [Francis] is deeply concerned, perhaps even more concerned in some ways, with what’s happening in the German ” David Lantigua, a moral theology professor at the University of Notre Dame, told . “The pope has, on a couple of occasions, made it clear that the German Synodal Path has kind of set itself up as another council of the church and that it’s potentially headed in a direction of breaking from the church or schism.” While critics of Francis, both traditionalist and progressive, are outspoken, most Catholics support their pope. A 2021 Pew Research Center poll found that 82 percent of U.S. Catholics have a “very” or “mostly favorable” opinion of the pope, and that the majority of all Americans, 63 percent, support Francis. Even newly elected right-wing Argentine President Javier Milei, who had at one point described the pope as an “imbecile” and a “ has changed his tone. Since taking office, the right-wing libertarian has softened. In February, he embraced Francis at mass in the Vatican City days after calling him “the most important Argentine in history.” But traditionalist critics do not believe the pope is treating all his adversaries equally. Murray said that while Francis has criticized the German Synodal Way more than once, he has not taken strong action over their disregard for his concerns. “He could, for instance, forbid the German bishops from continuing to implement and finance the agenda of the Synodal Way,” Murray said. “He has not done that. The pattern is one of strong words and actions against more conservative Catholics, contrasted with a history of cooperation with and promotion of more liberal Catholics, who occasionally receive relatively mild criticisms and are rarely disciplined.” Faggioli said it was true that Francis has adopted a harsher tone with American traditionalists: “But they have also gone further than other bishops around the world.” He said the two camps have taken wildly different approaches, where progressives abroad use more conventional language when criticizing Francis and traditionalists American Catholics are taking to social media to voice their complaints with the pontiff. “It’s not getting any better. It will never get better. It will remain that complicated,” he said of the relationship between Francis and the church in America. “It’s the most problematic relationship Pope Francis has had with one national church. There’s no question of that.” While the United States has taken center-stage in the culture wars, the challenge for Francis is a global one. “On the one hand, he wants to move the church forward,” William Dinges, a religious studies professor at the Catholic University of America, told . “He wants to avoid going too far and transforming Catholicism into just another form of cultural religion. On the other hand, he also wants to avoid turning the church into a sectarian, over-and-against ecclesial community. He’s trying to find that sweet middle ground.” – biskup, papież – niepewna pozycja, niebezpieczna sytuacja – zaakceptować coś, pogodzić się z czymś – doprowadzić to do rozłamu – przełomowe orzeczenie – udzielać błogosławieństwa – duchowny, ksiądz, pastor – ostry sprzeciw – różnica zdań, sprzeciw – parafia – miłosierdzie – współczucie – parafianin – zacofanie – reakcyjna postawa – wiara (w Boga) – usunięty ze stanowiska – parodia, karykatura – balansować (między czymś a czymś), być w trudnej sytuacji wymagającej ostrożnego i przemyślanego zachowania – podać coś w wątpliwość – podporządkować się – niewyświęcony (na księdza) – wspólnota kościelna – obrzydliwy lewak and answer the following questions: 1.

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — The Miami Dolphins were ready to deal veteran defensive tackle Calais Campbell to the Baltimore Ravens ahead of the Nov. 5 trade deadline until Mike McDaniel stepped in. “I may or may not have thrown an adult temper tantrum,” Miami's coach said, confirming the news first reported by NFL Network Sunday morning. The Dolphins were 2-6 and had lost three straight at that point. They'd played four uninspired games without their starting quarterback, going 1-3 after Tua Tagovailoa went on injured reserve on Sept. 17 with a concussion. Campbell would have had a chance to rejoin the contending Ravens, and Miami would have received a 2026 fifth-round pick in return, NFL Network reported. McDaniel argued that Campbell was too valuable to lose. “I was happy that they brought me into the conversations," Campbell said after Miami's 34-15 win over the New England Patriots . “They didn't have to say anything to me at all. We had a really good conversation about what we think about this team, where we are. We felt like we had a good shot to get back into the fight.” Added McDaniel: “I think it wasn’t like it was (GM) Chris (Grier) versus me. ... That’s the tricky thing about Chris’ job is he has to look long-term and short-term at the same time, what’s the best for the organization.” Campbell, a 17-year veteran, signed with the Dolphins after playing for Atlanta last season. Players and coaches have praised the 38-year-old's contributions on the field and in the locker room. “There’s no one’s game I’ve come to respect more than Calais up front on the D-line,” defensive tackle Zach Sieler said, “being with him this year and just the energy, the attitude and the mindset he brings every week. It can’t be matched, and that’s the reason why he is who he is today and doing what he’s doing at 17 years.” Campbell leads the team with four sacks. With back-to-back sacks in Weeks 10 and 11, he became the eighth player 38 or older to record sacks in consecutive games since the 1970 merger.
