Today's Readings
21 October- Mission Sunday- Luke 18: 1-8
Prayer and the Parable of the Persistent Widow
Then Jesus told them a parable to show them they should always pray and not lose heart. He said, “In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected people. There was also a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’ For a while he refused, but later on he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor have regard for people, yet because this widow keeps on bothering me, I will give her justice, or in the end she will wear me out by her unending pleas.’” And the Lord said, “Listen to what the unrighteous judge says! Won’t God give justice to his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he delay long to help them? I tell you, he will give them justice speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”
Just something for Catholics to reflect on...

Upcoming PC games
Here's some PC games I simply can't wait to get my hands on (4 now at least):
1) The Witcher - http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/thewitcher/index.html?tag=tabs;summary
- This one's different from other action RPGs (think Diablo) is two aspects (at least). The first is its game choices. They are extremely far-reaching, so no save the game, find ur desired conclusion and reload. The other is the skills learnt. From what I gather, it's supposed to be pretty realistic- u can see the difference between one stat less and one stat more.
2) Assassin's Creed - http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/assassinscreed/index.html?tag=tabs;summary
- This one's different as the actions in the game are pretty realistic- you don't climb a wall by clicking the wall, you move towards it and press certain buttons to grip this and step on that. And there's the sci-fi backstory in what is supposed to be a game set during the Crusades (yep, the Dark Ages one).
3) Spore - http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/spore/index.html?tag=tabs;summary
- Now this one's interesting. You get to play a species from its cellular state to it's space-faring state (yep, the one with spaceships).
