“The Catholic Church in Rome made the extraordinary admission yesterday that it is aware priests from at least 23 countries have been sexually abusing nuns.”…“In extreme instances, the priests had made nuns pregnant and then encouraged them to have abortions.”“The Vatican reports cited countless cases of nuns forced to have sex with priests. Some were obliged to take the pill, others became pregnant and were encouraged to have abortions. In one case in which an African sister was forced to have an abortion, she died during the operation and her aggressor led the funeral mass. Another case involved 29 sisters from the same congregation who all became pregnant to priests in the diocese.”

"Here is a sneak peek of some of my favorite images from a series of The Selby shoots sponsored by Dockers.
The idea behind the shoots was to make a series of photos of stylish Bay Area guys living the dream and doing what they love.
The shoots feature David Burnett volunteering at Habitat for Humanity, Andrew and Adam Mariani working in their vineyard, filmmaker Barry Jenkins at his home, Danny Hess shaping a surfboard in his workshop, artist Brian Barneclo painting in his studio, and industrial designer Bobby Chang working at Incase."
