Paul Ridley's Row For Hope

Paul Ridley's trans-Atlantic expedition began in the Canary Islands in December, 2008. The rowboat is just over 19 feet long, with solar power for survival equipment, navigation and communication systems. So why would a guy do this ? After the death of their mother to skin cancer in 2001, both Paul and his sister Joy decided to raise money for cancer research and he enjoys boating. I personally think this is a great way to raise both money and awareness for skin cancer. With many charities in existence most people don't know which ones to give to, so by doing something the media will take notice of, draws attention and discussion to the cause. He spoke with his father Mark Ridley daily, Paul would tell his father what he accomplished that day, and he didn't want to talk about the finish, they spoke mostly about the task at hand. The 3000 mile trip ended in Antigua, the effort had raised about $100,000, but Ridley isn't letting that deter him. He believes more contributions will roll in as the row is completed and media attention increases. "Sure, an ocean row for a great cause is hard to top," he said. "But I'm still only 25, and it would be against my personality if I never did anything else."

Antigay Catholic Teacher Keeps His Job

Timothy Kane, a 26-year-old math teacher, was ordered to undergo a mental evaluation and anger management training. After threatening two Connecticut lawmakers for introducing a bill that would mandate fiscal oversight for churches has been allowed to keep his job. The proposed law, which has since been withdrawn, would have changed how Catholic churches managed their finances and administrative dealings. Timothy Kane sent an e-mail on March 10 to Rep. Mike Lawlor and Sen. Andrew McDonald concerning the bill. -"You better hope myself and other Catholics don't find out where you live," Kane wrote, according to police, "cause there's hell to pay for your attack on the church. Fuck off. God hates gay sex."- So when do the stories come out about this guy sucking someone off. With lips like that, you know the fucker swallows. Catholics tend to have really screwed up sexual thoughts, with the once a Catholic, always a Catholic saying and all. But really, who does this closet case think he is kidding. HELL PARTY OF ONE ! This wanna be faggot needs to get greased and plowed !

What Happens When A Bottom Goes Christian ?

I just read another interview with Tom Katt ( David Papaleo ) and in 2003 he decided to retire Tom Katt from the adult film industry in order to cultivate his spirituality. He returned to Georgia, fell in love with a woman to whom he told his story, and, as she seemed neither bothered nor threatened by his past, he decided to continue the relationship. I think he should have mentioned love somewhere in all of that. They were married in December of 2005. Some back history about him, Papaleo's mother suffered from depression and was shot and killed by his stepfather when Papaleo was 11 years old. Bodybuilding became a form of therapy, helping him deal with the loss of his mother. After graduation, he worked odd jobs and did personal training on the side to support his goal of becoming a professional bodybuilder. By this time, his body had developed and a friend of a friend presented him with his first offer to appear in an adult movie from Fox Studios, a gay-themed adult film studio that specialized in the bodybuilder genre. He agreed and signed a contract with the studio. According to Papaleo, his primary reason for agreeing to appear in adult films was its lucrative pay scale. Papaleo took the alias of Tom Katt, and, at age 21, appeared in his first adult film. He continued to compete regularly and competed in, at least, three shows per year, as well as continue to enjoy a successful career as a personal trainer. After he won his first regional bodybuilding competition, he was able to demand more money from his clients. His career as a pornographic actor also flourished, and, as he became more popular, his salary increased. He would begin to date men and women who were also involved in the adult film industry. Papaleo continued his adult film career with Falcon Studios and personal training in Georgia until the sale of adult videos became legal in the state. An adult video store opened near the gym where he worked and pictures, videos and other items featuring his image were clearly visible in the store's windows by clients, some of whom belonged to the gym. These and other issues led to the impairment of Papaleo's self-image, he landed on hard times and began to move from place to place. From 1997 to 2003, he moved to Los Angeles, returned to Georgia, only to go back to Hollywood. Papaleo eventually found peace within himself with as he says prayer and the Bible. I have to say, that it is nice to see a Gay Porn Star ( Bottom ) not trash his past and blame every Gay Man hes meet, for the position he put himself into. David Papaleo remains supportive of the gay community and is very critical of mainstream Christian stances on homosexuality.
