Vox Angelica
by Soledad
Author's note: vox angelica is an organ stop, giving a gentle tremolo effect; it means "the voice of the angels". For disclaimer, rating, etc., see Chapter 1.
This story takes place after the sixteenth novel, "The Heretic's Apprentice", but before the seventeenth, "The Potter's Field".
Two days later the truth about Master Haminch's death had run its circle all across Farewell and tempers were slowly cooling down. The visitors – including Brother Cadfael and Brother Mark – were about to leave for home. Cadfael paid the jovial hermit, Brother Rhodri, a last visit; the two discussed the unfortunate events in detail and then parted in friendship.
Most of the nuns found the time to wish them a safe journey home and to offer their prayers so that it would be so indeed. Old Sister Alphonse gave Cadfael a handful of her oldest, most valued recipes as a parting gift – ones she had learned from her father and grandmother, and also some cuts and seeds for his herb garden. Young Sister Alumna entrusted to him a message for her beloved uncle, Brother Edmund. Sister Anna, mistress of the kitchens, prepared for them a satchel with food, so that they would suffer no need along the way.
Mother Patrice came in person to see them off, with Sister Eata at her elbow. Cadfael wondered briefly whether this meant that the prioress had found a kindred spirit in the strong-willed nun, or simply wanted to keep an eye on her. Perhaps both, to a certain extent.
Alvrich de Quadraria rode with them for the first leg of their journey and offered them the loan of the horses till they would reach Shrewsbury. He could always fetch the good beasts when he paid Hugh Beringar a visit, which he was planning anyway, he explained.
But Cadfael thankfully rejected the generous offer.
"We thank you for having eased a good part of the way for us, my lord," he said, "but it would not be proper for two humble monks to travel as we were of your standing. We are not with the entourage of some great lord or bishop; nor are we in any hurry. We shall continue our journey on foot, as it is fitting for those who consider themselves but pilgrims on this mortal soil."
"That will be a long an arduous walk, though," said the knight.
Cadfael shook his head.
"Not for us; we are used to travel this way. It was but a few years back that I've gone the way from Shrewsbury to Farewell, with several side looks, in the company of Brother Haluin; and he dragging himself on crutches, too, in the cold of November. Compared with that, this journey will be an easy one."
Seeing that he could not change their minds, Alvrich de Quadraria thanked Cadfael for his help with unravelling the murder mystery; then he took his leave from them and turned around to ride home, taking the horses with him. For a knight, with always a few grooms in his entourage, taking care for a few spare beasts did not mean any added burden.
"Lord de Quadraria is very generous and hospitable," commented Brother Mark, when the knight and his men were gone. "But I'm relieved that we're finally among us, Cadfael; and that we're heading home."
"So am I," admitted Cadfael. "It's been an unexpectedly long absence, and I find I miss Shrewsbury. I need to be in my workshop again, in my herb garden… and I want my bed. It seems that the older I get, the better I sleep in my own bed. Even if it isn't half as comfortable as the ones in Farewell's guest hall."
Brother Mark, being of an age in which a young man could sleep on just about any surface and at any time he was allowed to, smiled.
"I do notice, though, that you only ever complain when such a mission is nearing its end," he said fondly. "Never before."
"Of course not!" agreed Cadfael readily. "That would be foolish; and while I might be old, I'm certainly not a fool."
"True; you are not," laughed Brother Mark quietly; then he became thoughtful again. "I wonder what will happen to Dame Astola de Hammerwich now. She was not too eager to return home, was she?"
"Not as long as he feared that her stepson may be found guilty and hanged," said Cadfael. "I had the feeling that she feared to return with only Sweyn as her company. But now that Hamo was proved innocent and can go home with her and protect her from any unwelcome attention, I doubt that she would tarry in Farewell much longer."
"Do you believe that Hamo would be good to her?" asked Brother Mark, a little concerned on the widow's behalf.
Cadfael nodded. "Of that I'm fairly certain. I think she's always got along well with her stepson; she more or less raised the lad, after all. And Hamo would never be able to run the household on his own – a manor like that needs a mistress with a firm hand, and Dame Astola has been that mistress for many years. "Besides," he added, "as the widow of Haminch, she does have her privileges. If Hamo wants to eke out a living for himself, now that half their lands have gone to the nuns, he will need her support."
"So you believe they will arrange themselves?" asked Brother Mark.
Cadfael nodded again. "They might bump shoulders a few times, but they'll find an arrangement that will benefit them both. Dame Astola is a woman of much patience, and she has a remarkable amount of common sense. They will manage. All it will take is a little time."
Back in Farewell, Dame Astola de Hammerwich was entertaining similar thoughts. After having led several lengthy discussions with both her stepson and Mother Patrice, concerning the practical management of their shared property, she found that she had made as good a bargain as it was possible under the circumstances.
The fact that Mother Patrice had been feeling guilty and was thus more inclined to make allowances did help her case. She was fairly content with the results and ready to go home.
There was only one thing she needed to do before she would leave.
She chose the early evening hours just shortly before Vespers, when it was still enough light for everyone to see her entering Brother Godric's garden in plain sight, yet with few people actually around to do so. She was not hiding anything – there was nothing to hide, had never been – but she did not want strangers gawking at the fence, either.
This was a deeply personal matter, after all.
She found the front door of the cell wide open. The hermit was sitting at his desk, using the last rays of the sun to finish copying something. He was so focused on his work that he did not even notice her presence at first; thus she had the chance to look her fill, after all those years.
He had changed a lot during the six years she had not seen him, but she found that the changes served to his advantage. True, he was much thinner than she remembered, and the unruly beard concealed much of the oh-so-familiar features. Had she met him without knowing what he had become, she might not have even recognized him.
He had come to his prime: a well-made young man about thirty, beyond his gangly youth and of wiry strength. But most of all, he seemed at peace. Like someone who had finally found that which he had sought after all his life.
She looked around in the Spartan little room that was so obviously the home of a scholar. Books, scrolls, writing utensils covered every available surface – not that there had been much of that, either. Even the small chapel, with only the altar and the reliquary in its middle, was bigger than the cell where he actually lived. The whole place was rather barren; and despite having grown up in bitter poverty, she doubted that she could live like this. But the young hermit, working at his desk diligently, seemed content enough.
Like someone who had found his right place.
He had finally taken notice of her presence and set his pen aside, rising from behind his desk respectfully.
"Dame Astola; this is… unexpected."
His voice, at least, was as it always had been: low-pitched and just a little bit hoarse. She hurried over to him, taking both his hands in her own.
"Unexpected indeed; for me even more so than for you," she said. "I never knew you lived here."
"That was my intention," he replied with an earnest smile. "I wanted to begin my life anew – and this was the right place to do so."
She held to his hands as if they were her lifeline, and he let her do so… for the moment.
"How are you doing, Garth?" she asked. "I was worried about you, in all these years! I prayed for your safety every single day."
"I am well, as you can see," he replied kindly. "I have everything I need, and I am well content. And it is Brother Godric now," he added. "I have left my old life behind; all of it, even my name."
She understand the hint clearly enough. It hurt, but she knew it could not be changed.
"You're not leaving this place, are you?" she asked, still holding onto his hands for dear life.
He shook his head, slowly, thoughtfully. His grey-blue eyes that had once followed her every step with such reverence, were now staring into a distance she could not see.
"No, my lady. This is the freedom I have always sought for."
"Freedom?" she repeated incredulously. "You are confined to two tiny rooms, where you can barely turn around! You cannot call that freedom!"
"Oh, but I can," he replied, smiling. "And while my body is confined here indeed, my mind can travel to the farthest corners of Creation; and my soul can soar to the throne of God Himself. There is no greater freedom than that."
A freedom he could never share with her. A freedom where she could never follow him. Even now that her husband – his father! – was gone, she still had her obligations. Towards her stepson – his brother! – towards her household, towards their tenants. She was their mistress, but in a way she was as much their servant as they were hers.
He, on the other hand, only belonged to God and to himself.
He would never be hers again. Not even in the chaste, platonic manner they had once belonged to each other. Those times were gone and would never return.
And she would never want any other man in her life. Not if she could not have him.
"I am glad you have found your right place," she said.
There was no use to try changing his mind. He had chosen, years ago, and he would stick to his choice with true Saxon stubbornness. She would only humiliate herself; and she still had enough of her pride left not to do that.
Besides, she did not want his pity. If she could not have his love, she at least wanted his respect.
"Take good care of yourself, Garth," she said, deliberately using his old name, the one he had left behind. For her, he would always remain Garth; even if no-one else would remember the name. "And forget not to pray for me sometimes. You owe me that much."
She lifted one of his hands and kissed it; the first such touch between them, ever – and also the last one, as it seemed.
Then she let go of him trying to make herself believe that her heart was not breaking.
She spent the following years taking care of her late husband's manor and helping her stepson to tend to what lands remained for them. She saw that Hamo found a suitable wife and helped them raise their children, as if they were grandchildren of her own flesh and blood. She lived long enough to see those children grow up and take their lives into their own hands.
But she never returned to Farewell, for the rest of her life.

METHODIST preaching was introduced into Newburg as early as 1818, a class being formed, which passed through various vicissitudes, and then became extinct. On the 1st of January, 1832, Mr. Lyman Ferris went to Cleveland, and invited Rev. Mr. Goddard to resume the work. Mr. G. did so, establishing preaching, and forming a class, consisting of the following persons: Lyman Ferris and wife, Stephen Ames and wife, Cyrus Chapman and wife, Mr. Dr. Henderson and Mrs. Willis.
The first church-building, a neat frame, was erected in
1841; costing about three thousand dollars.
From 1832 to 1860 Newburg was part of a circuit, and preaching was kept
up regularly by the preachers, who, from year to year, were appointed by the
In 1860 the society, having attained some influence and means, was detached from the circuit and became a station, with Rev. D. c. Wright as pastor, who was followed successively by Rev. S. Gregg, Rev. D. Prosser, Rev. R. M. Warren, Rev. M. Hill, Rev. G. W. Chesbro, Rev. Thomas Stubbs, Rev. J. R. Lyon and Rev. A. S. Dobbs. Under Mr. Dobbs' energetic labors and wise guidance, the present tasteful and commodious brick structure was begun and carried forward so far as to complete the basement story in 1872. The lecture room is used for church purposes, and will, with the two side-rooms connected with it by large folding doors, seat about six hundred persons. Rev. Mr. Dobbs left the charge in his third year, and was followed by Rev. C. Prindle, who filled up the year. Rev. A. D. Morton succeeded, and remained three years. The present incumbent is Rev. Benj. Excell. The church at present numbers about two hundred and twenty-five members; the Sabbath school about one hundred and seventy-five to two hundred. The present board of trustees are Edmund James, John Henderson, Wm. P. Braund, Geo. R. Hill, Geo. W. Culett, J. D. Jones, M. D., Robert Woodley, Noah Rothwell and Wm. Jones. There is now only a small indebtedness, for the payment of which provision has been made, and it is expected that in a year or two the debt will be paid and the building completed.
Methodist preaching commenced in Cleveland as early as the year 1822, although church organization was not accomplished until 1827. The first Methodist of the city of whom any record can be obtained was Mrs. Grace Johnson, who became a settler in the county in 1822. In the same year Rev. Ira Eddy established a place of preaching in Cleveland as a part of the Hudson Circuit. In 1823 Rev. William H. Collins and Rev. Orm Gilmore became the preachers on the circuit. In 1824 Rev. Philip Green and Rev. William C. Henderson were the appointees. Rev. Robert Hopkins was placed in charge in 1825, and continued as such until 1826, when Revs. John Crawford and William R. Babcock were appointed. A class was formed in 1827 under the pastorate of Revs. John Crawford and Cornelius Jones, consisting of Mrs. Grace Johnson, Andrew Tomlinson, Eliza Worley, Elizabeth Southworth, Joel Sizer and wife, Elijah Peet and wife and Lucinda Knowlton. Elijah Peet was chosen leader. This was the first Methodist society in Cleveland.
At this time the Cleveland
circuit, so called, comprised all of Cuyahoga, Lake, Geauga, Summit
and part of Portage and Ashtabula counties.
In 1828 Revs. Ignatius H. Tacket and Cornelius Jones were appointed to the circuit, and in 1829 wee followed by Revs. John Chandler, J. McLean and T. Vaughn.
During the following year, 1830, under the charge of Rev.
Billings O. Plimpton, Cleveland was made a
station, or regular charge, but on account of a large secession of members who
formed the "Methodist Protestant church," the society was seriously affected,
ad Cleveland
returned to the circuit.
In 1831 Revs. Alfred Brunson, Dennis Goddard and John J. Steadman; in 1832 Revs. John McLean and John E. Ebert, and in 1833 Revs. John W. Hill and Milton Colt were respectively appointed to the circuit charge.
In 1834 Cleveland
was made a permanent station and Rev. George McCaskey appointed pastor. From this time the society worshipped in
halls, school-houses and the court-house, until 1841, when the church on the
corner of St. Clair and Wood streets was completed. They continued to worship in this church
until the erection and dedication of the new chapel in 1869, on the corner of Euclid avenue and Erie street. In 1874 the present elegant edifice was
completed on the same lot. The cost of
this building was about one hundred and forty thousand dollars.
This church has contributed largely of its members and means
in the formation and building of other Methodist churches in the city, and is
the mother church
of Cleveland Methodism. Its present membership numbers over four
hundred. The following are the names of
the several pastors of the church from the time it became a station, with the
term of service of each respectively:
rev. Francis A. Dighton, 1835-7, (on account of failing health Mr.
Dighton was released from his work, and Revs Hiram Gilmore and J. W. Lowe
appointed for the remainder of the term.)
Revs. Hiram Kinsley and H. N. Stearns, 1837-8; E. J. Kenney, 1838-9; J.
K. Hallock and M. H. Bettis, 1839-40; A. M. Brown, 1840-2; L. D. Mix, 1842-3;
Samuel Gregg, 1843-5; B. K. Maltby 1845-6; B. K. Maltby and Ezra Jones, 1846-7;
J. W. Lowe, 1847-9; Thomas Stubbs, 1849-51; John Bain, 1851-2; G. B. Hawkins,
1852-4; George L. Little, 1854-6; Moses Hill, 1856-8; John Peate, 1858-9; W. P.

1864-7; C. E. Felton, 1867-70; C. N. grant, 1870-2; Henry baker, Jr., 1872-4;
C. W. Cushing, 1874-5; J. N. Fradenburg, Ph. D., 1875-6. Rev. B. F. Brooks, D. D.,
was called to the pastorate in 1876 and continues to hold it at the present
This church was first organized in 1827, with the following members: Aaron Hubbard (leader) and wife, James Sawtell and wife, Oliver Marshall, Israel Hubbard and wife, Anna Cozad, Eleanor Collier, Philinda Gould, William Mitchell and wife, Timothy Hurlbut and wife, Samuel Bond, Florilla Searls, Samuel Harris and wife, Harriet Slate and Nathan Smith and wife. It was a part of the Newburg circuit until 1858. At that time the circuit was divided, and East Cleveland and Euclid were separated. In 1860, East Cleveland was made a station, since which the pastors have been: Rev. L. Clark, two years; Rev. T. Guy, two years; Rev. S. Gregg, two years; Rev. D. Smith, one year; Rev. A. M. Brown, one year; Rev. W. W. Wythe, two years; Rev. Dr. C. Prindle, three months; Rev. T. Stubbs, nine months; Rev. B. Excell, three years; Rev. D. Latshaw, two years; Rev. G. W. Maltby, seven months; Rev. C. H. Stocking, two years and five months; Rev. A. R. Chapman, present pastor, in his second year. The present membership is about two hundred. Officers of church: Rev. A. R. Chapman, pastor; G. W. Foote, president and secretary, H. T. Hower, treasurer, T. C. Parsons, Rev. I. Dallas, L. B. Coe, W. H. Gates, William Morris, A. E. Bradley, trustees; George Watkins, E. C. Pope, T. C. Parsons, D. B. Beers, W. H. Gates, G. W. Foote, L. B. Coe, R. Quigley, J. W. Excell, stewards; J. W. Excell, recording steward and treasurer; D. B. Beers, Sunday school superintendent; Miss S. Gardner and Mrs. E. C. Pope, assistant superintendents. The first church building, which is still used as a class and prayer-meeting room, is thirty-two by forty-four feet, and was built about 1836. The present church is of brick, about forty-four feet by seventy, and cost nearly twenty-two thousand dollars. It was dedicated in December, 1870.
This society was organized about 1830, and has now a membership of three hundred. The house of worship is at the corner of Franklin avenue and Duane street, west side. The pastor is Rev. J. S. Youmans.
This church was organized September 3, 1845, in an old building on South Water street, by Rev. C. H. Buhre. Rev. C. H. Doering administered the first sacrament to thirteen communicants. The first board of trustees was organized on the 19th of October, 1840, under the charge of Rev. C. Helway. The trustees were John Griffin, John Hoffman, Jacob Lowman, John Gill, Peter Marcellus, John Hall and John Outhwaite. In the year 1848 they purchased a lot on Prospect street, between Ontario and Erie streets, and erected a brick church, thirty-five feet in width and fifty feet deep. The whole property, including the edifice, cost the society about two thousand dollars. In 1860 the society leased a lot on Erie street, number three hundred and three, as a more suitable and convenient location for a church edifice, and with the proceeds of the sale of the property formerly used they built a new church of brick and wood. The new church edifice was dedicated December 25, 1860. The lease expired in 1870, when the society purchased the lot. The society continued in this building until 1878 when an exchange was made for the Baptist church-property on the corner of Scovill and Sterling avenues. This was dedicated February 9, 1879. The church has a present membership of sixty-one. The Sabbath school numbers eighty scholars. The pastors who have had charge of the society since its organization, are Rev. C. H. Buhre, C. Helway, John A. Klein, c. Gahn, P. F. Schneider, J. Rothweiler, N. Nuhfer, Ennis Baur, C. Bozenhart, J. Krehbiel, G. Berg, C. F. Heitmeyer, G. Bertram, J. Gicken, C. Nachtrieb, W. Borcherding, H. Knill, J. Haas and C. Golder, the present incumbent.
The organization of Christ Church was effected in July, 1850, through the labors of Rev. Dillon Proccer. A small parcel of land was donated by Simon Streater, upon which a chapel, twenty-five by thirty-five feet in size, was built. This house the society occupied until the next year, and then removed to the building subsequently used as the Homeopathic Hospital. The society soon after, and furing the year 1851, again moved into the new church edifice on Erie street, remaining thee until 1876, at which time the Westminster Presbyterian Church on the corner of Huntington and Prospect, was purchased. Here the society meets at the present day. The church has a membership of about one hundred and sixty, and has had the following pastors: Revs. Dillon Prosser, James H. Whalon, D. D., Nelson Stearns, Thomas Stubbs, J. E. Chapin, W. F. Willson, D. C. Wright, R. H. Hurlburt, A. J. Merchant, -- Yingling, J. S. Lytle, John Sullivan, Charles W. Cushing and t. M. House, the present incumbent, who was called to the pastorate in September, 1878.
This church was organized in 1853, and for some time the society was so small that services ere held in the dwellings of members—Mr. Benjamin Parkins, a local preacher, being the minister. Later a church was put up at the corner of Bridge and Taylor streets, and in 1868 the church building now used, was first occupied. Rev. T. C. Warren is the present pastor—his predecessors in the present church having been Revs. Messrs. Colwell, Mower and McCaskey. The membership is one hundred and sixty, and the trustees are J. C. Bartlett, Cornelius Rosecranz, Samuel Fix, James Davey, Richard Conn, William Harrison and William Henderson.
This church was formed, and a house built for it on the corner of Lorain and McLean streets, under the charge of Rev. C. Gahn, in the year 1851, as a mission of the Methodist Episcopal society then on Prospect street. In 1853 the mission became a separate society, and Rev. John Balduff was chosen pastor—continuing two years. Rev. Philip B. Weber and Rev. George Berg was successively ministers until October, 1856. Since that thime the several pastors and their terms of service have been as follows: Gottlieb Nachtrieb, from October, 1856 to October, 1857; George Reiter, from 1857 to 1859; Christian Nachtrieb, from 1859 to 1860; gottlieb Nachtrieb, from 1860 to 1861; C. Bozenhart, from 1861 to 1853; C. Heitmeier, from 1863 to 1864; N. Nufer, from 1864 to 1866; George Berg, from 1866 to 1867; N. Nufer and C. F. Morf; from 1867 to 1868; John S. Schneider, from 1868 to 1871; H. Buttenbaum, from 1871 to 1872; Albert Nast, from 1872 to 1874; John S. Schneider, from 1874 to1876; Wm. Borcherding, called in 1876 and continues pastor at the present time.
The first official board consisted of Wm. Mack, Jocob Knopf,
Jacob Hoffman, V. K. Klup, F. Knopf, A. Frewart, F. Schwarz. The church has at present a membership of one
hundred and twenty. Connected with the
church is a Sabbath school of one hundred and fifty scholars, and twenty –four
officers and teachers.
This church was organized by Rev. Dillon Prosser as a city
mission about 1860. The first church
building occupied was one previously used by the Erie Street M.E. congregation. It was moved to St. Clair street, and afterwards a
building was erected on Waring
street, when the church was known as the Waring Street
Church. The octagonal edifice on Superior street, now used, was opened for
worship I 1877. The membership, which,
in 1860, was but seventeen, is upwards of two hundred in 1879 Rev. Harvey T.
Webb is the present pastor, the trustees being H. C. Brainard, Henry Cain, Wm.
Simmons, J. J. Smith, W. P. Starrett, Thos. Corris and M. B. Johnson.
At the session of the Erie Annual Conference of M. E. church in 1866, rev. Dillon Prosser was appointed city missionary. His first services were held in the open air, under the trees on Forest street, for the space of three months. A Sunday school was organized, with about twenty scholars; Thomas H. Oakley, superintendent. During the winter services were held in an unfinished dwelling-house, and a church was duly organized. Mr. Oakley, his wife and two daughters, were the first members of the young society, bringing certificates from the St. Clair street M. E. church.
In the spring 1867, the church had about forty members. The sum of one thousand dollars was raised,
and the old Lutheran building was purchased and moved to a vacant lot on Scovill avenue,
near Perry street,
leased for one year. The next year the
society purchased a lot on the corner of Scovill and Longwood avenues, for five
thousand five hundred dollars, and again removed the old building to that
locality, where they held services until the present edifice was erected. In the old church the membership was greatly
enlarged under the labors of the rev. C. N. Groot.
The first board of trustees consisted of Thomas H. Oakley, chairman, A. E. Hoon, Boardman Bosworth, Alvin N. Curtis, Wm. S. Wight, John Kelley and John Strong. The new building was commenced in 1871, and the basement occupied in 1872. About twenty-four thousand dollars have been expended, and for want of funds it has remained unfinished until now.
The parsonage is on the rear of the lot, fronting on Longwood avenue. The lot is seventy-five by one hundred and eighty-three feet, in size. The church building is of brick, with stone trimmings and stained glass windows. The audience room, when finished, will seat about eight hundred persons. The finished part contains a pastor's study, infant class and business rooms, lecture room and double parlors, all handsomely frescoed, and well seated and lighted.
The following have been the pastors: Revs. D. Prosser, C. N. Groot, F. H. Beck,
George W. Gray, Benjamin Excell, Frank Brown, A. N. Croft and James R.
Mills. The present board of trustees are
Thomas H. Oakley, Chalres W. Munsell, N. A. Gilbert, Samuel E. Bottsford, Joel
Woodword, H. Wilkins, A. Wilkins, S. H. Barrett. The present membership is one hundred and
seventy-five. The Sunday school scholars
number two hundred and twenty five. The
church was a mission but one year. The
Woodland Avenue M. E. Church is composed of former members of Scovill Avenue
Church, who mainly paid
for the building and lot which were deeded to them.
This church was organized in 1868, in the German M. El church edifice on Lorain street, being known as the "Clark Mission," by which name it was designated until the year 1874, when a change was made and the present name adopted. The first members were chiefly from the Franklin avenue church, and were transferred to the mission, under the charge of Rev. H. L. Parish. In 1870 the present church edifice was built, forty by sixty feet in size; being enlarged in 1874 by the addition of a lecture room. In 1878 the entire edifice was again reconstructed, having at present a comfortable seating capacity of five hundred. Situated in a portion of the city where the residents are necessarily transient, the church has not been able to make any large increase in permanent membership, but numbers at present about one hundred and seventy-five. The following is the succession of pastors: Revs. H. L. Parish, O. Carel, J. S. Broadwell, T. K. Dissette, F. S. Wolfe and John Mitchell (appointed in 1878). The following are the present church officials: Rev. John Mitchell, pastor; Rev. O. Card, local elder; W. W. Gould, recording steward; Joseph Storer, H. Hale, E. G. Powel, W. W. Richardson, James Davis, C. F. Harris, stewards; Joseph Storer, Samuel Stoney, H. Hale, leaders; H. Hale, James Langhorn, E. G. Powel, W. W. Richardson, --- McDole, James Davis, W. W. Gould, trustees.
This society was organized in the year 1870, and worshiped in an old building on Merchants' avenue, between Cliff and Fairfield streets. Rev. Charles Ruddick, a local preacher, with others, conducted the services. In the year 1871, under the supervision of Rev. Mr. Ruddick, the church edifice on Pelton avenue, near Literary street, was built. The first trustees were Messrs. Barney Swartwood, John Timmins, J. R. Timmins, John Corrigan and ---Reed. The building and lot cost about four thousand dollars. Rev. George W. Collier, preached the dedicator sermon and conducted the services.
During the winter of 1878-9 the church building underwent a
complete renovation, the old hall or entrance and gallery being taken out and
one of the stairways entirely removed.
Above the class-rooms and hall a neat chapel, seated with chairs, has
been constructed. In the rear of the
auditorium, back of the pulpit, an alcove has been built for the organ and
choir, which adds much to the appearance and convenience of the church
edifice. The auditorium has a seating
capacity of two hundred and fifty. On
the day of re-opening, March 16, 1879, the expense of repairs, eight hundred
dollars, was added to the old debt of about three hundred dollars, and the
whole nearly paid in cash and subscriptions.
Rev. I. C. Pershing, D. D., president of Pittsburg Female
College, preached both
morning and evening. At this time the
name was changed from Pelton Avenue M. E. Church to Grace M. E. Church, and the
society was incorporated under the latter appellation. It is now in a very flourishing condition,
though its numbers are small; it has a membership of fifty-eight, and about one
hundred and twenty names on its Sunday school roll.
The following pastors have served the society since its organization: Rev. Charles Ruddick, 1870, Rev. ---McHenry, 1871; Rev. A. D. Knopp, 1872; Rev. H. L. Parish, 1873 to 1876; Rev. B. A. Disney succeeded to the pastorate in 1876. The present officers are Rev. B. A. Disney, pastor; Revs. W. C. North and Thomas Small, local preachers; Rev. W. C. North, W. D. Savage, Martin Winger, Wm. H. Barch, John TImmius and J. W. Flint, stewards; W. D. Savage, J. W. Flint, Mrs. Caroline A. Newton, Mrs. Hester Winger, class leaders; W. C. North, W. D. Savage, William H. Barch, M. Winger and J. M. Burns, trustees.
For many years previous to 1871 the people residing in the Fourteenth ward had felt the want of a church organization, and the agitation of the subject led to definite action in the spring of that year. In accordance with a a previous arrangement a preliminary meeting was held April 16, 1871, in the wigwam or polling-lace of the ward, on Trumbull street, at which time a society was organized under the name of the "Broadway Union Mission Sabbath School Society."
The rapid increase of membership and attendance at the Sabbath school led to the purchase of a lot on Broadway near Gallup street; a deed being taken by Alphonzo Holley, Jabesh Gallup, T. M. Irvine, Edward Rose, and L. L. Crane, as trustees to hold for the society. During the autumn months a neat chapel was erected on the rear end of the lot, where temporary services were held until the completion of the church edifice in October, 1872. The members of the Methodist societies of the city contributed largely toward the erection of this building, and in accordance with a previous agreement the property was conveyed to the Methodist Church. In September, 1872, the society, under the name of "Broadway M. E. Church," was regularly organized, with Rev. C. N. grant, pastor, rev. E. S. Gillette, associate pastor. The society then had but ten members, but now numbers over seventy. The several pastors have been as follows: Revs. C. N. Grant, E. S. Gillette, J. H. Tagg, and Dillon Prosser, the present minister.
This was organized in June, 1873, in a saloon on St. Clair street, as a Mission Sabbath School. Mrs. Prosser, wife of Rev. Dillon Prosser, purchased the building and had it removed to its present location on Willson avenue. Devotional exercises were conducted there by Rev. Mr. Prosser, but no permanent church organization has ever been effected. A prosperous Sunday school is maintained there under the charge of James Malpas, superintendent.
Union Chapel was organized April 29, 1874, with the following officers: John Pendleton, class leader; H. Woods, William Bailey, Frank Johnson, trustees. In October following a lot of land on Hackman street was leased for a term of five years, upon which a church edifice was built by C. H. Norton as a gift to the society. The church has a present membership of forty-eight. The Sunday school has an attendance of sixty scholars. The pastors in charge of this chapel since its organization have been Revs. Henry Steene, George W. Hatton, --- Henderson, A. A. Price, John Pickett, George Carr, Thomas Tompkins, W. J. H. McDade, D. D., pastor; W. F. King and Samuel Justin, local preachers, (the latter being also class leader); William Harris, Andrew Wilkins, and James Monroe, trustees.
This church was organized in September, 1874, by Rev. D. Prosser. A lot was leased from Mr. John Wolcott on Woodland avenue, and the building, formerly the Kingsley chapel, moved to the site, enlarged, refitted and otherwise improved, at an expense of about six hundred dollars. Rev. Mr. Prosser acted as pastor for one year. The other pastors in succession have been Revs. C. N. Grant, --- Palmer, J. G. Bliss and J. H. Tagg, the present incumbent.
In the month of Setember, 1875, through the labors of Rev. Dillon Prosser, a school-house owned by the estate of Rev. William Day, and located on Prospect street, was purchased and moved to Willson avenue, corner of Prospect street. Here Rev. Mr. Prosser soon after organized a church retaining pastoral charge until September, 1878, when Rev. John Tagg was appointed, and still serves as officiating minister.
The Sadie Chapel, or, as it is generally known, the Kinsman street chapel, was organized as a subscription church in the year 1877. Land on the corner of Kinsman and Herald streets was donated by Mr. Israel Hubbard, and in September of that year the chapel was completed and dedicated. The services on the occasion were conducted by Revs. Dillon Prosser and David Osborn. The chapel was built at a cost of six hundred dollars, and has two hundred sittings. Rev. Mr. Prosser had charge of the chapel society until 1878, when Rev. J. H. Tagg, of the Woodland avenue church, was appointed pastor.
At the Erie Conference M. E. Church, in the fall of 1838, resolutions were passed disapproving any expression by the churches on the question of American slavery. This action was received with disfavor by a portion of the members of the church in Cleveland. On September 1, 1839, an organization was effected, consisting of about sixty members, who withdrew from the First Methodist Episcopal Church for that purpose. This new church stood alone until May, 1843, when it sent delegates to a convention held at Utica, New York, and there went into the organization which has ever since been known as the Wesleyan Methodist Connection of America.
Of the original sixty members but six yet remain. These are Rev. James Christian, John Corlett, Wm. K. Corlett, James Gayton, Mrs. Elizabeth Southworth and Mrs. Sarah Parkhurst.
The church was first built on Euclid avenue, near
Sheriff street. It was a plain, neat frame building, capable
of seating about four hundred. In 1863
the society sold the lot on which it stood, and moved the house to its present
location, at the corner of Brownell and Ohio
The church has had a succession of pastors in the following order: Revs. I Robbins, B. Preston, J. A. Pearson, J. B. Walker, S. D. Jones, J. McEldeny, W. H. Brewster, H. B. Knight, A. Crooks, Cyrus Prindle, I W. Bainum, A. H. Kinney, J. E. Carroll, S. R. Royes and A. G. Hiatt. The following are the present officers: M. B. Clark, William Cowley, William K. Corlett, David Whitehead, James Christian and S. W. Hill, trustees; S. W. Hill, J. H. Weaver and George Short, stewards; John Corlett, treasurer; J. P. Brown, clerk; John Collester, assistant clerk. The Sabbath school numbers about sixty scholars.
The Welsh Calvinistic Methodist, or Welsh Presbyterian, Church was organized about the year 1858, and occupies a framed building, erected at a cost of about two thousand dollars, on Cannon street, corner Elmo street, at Newburg. The first pastor was Rev. John Moses who continued until about 1867, when Rev. Ebenezer Evans was called to the pastorate, and served the society for five years. In 1872 the present pastor, rev. William Harrison, took charge. The present membership is about forty, and near the same number are in attendance on the Sabbath school.
This was organized about 1865, and has now a congregation of
upwards of two hundred members, who worship on Erie street, under the ministrations of
Rev. T. H. Jackson.
This church, the first of its denomination in the city, was
organized in 1870 with but six members.
A small building was erected on Pearl street in that year and occupied as
a place of worship until 1873. In the
latter year the property was sold, and the society purchased the church-edifice
and pastoral residence on the corner of Bridge and Taylor streets. The first officers of the church were A.
Bradfield, Wm. C. Jones, E. Thomas and Thomas Service. The successive pastors with their terms of
service have been as follows: Revs. W.
H. James, A. V. Leonardson and E. Matthews, one year each; A. Bradfield, two
years; S. C. Stringham, one year; Joseph Lawrence, two years. Rev. C. F. Irish, the present pastor, was
settled in 1878. The church officials
are as follows: C. F. Irish, pastor;
George Lawrence and Wm. C. Jones, local preachers; E. Thomas, E. Holkins and
Joseph Cain, class leaders; wm. Brooker and V. Jerome, stewards.

[1] The four following churches have organizations separate from that of the Methodist Episcopal churches; but there being but one of each denomination in the city, we have thought it best to append them here.

Design and Health Promotion
Posted on March 5, 2011
Complex problems like chronic disease, health inequity, access to health care, civic engagement, global migration, and food security are ones that require a diverse set of perspectives, abductive (design) thinking, systems perspectives and ways to bring them all together. Design is a way to do that. Health promotion, rather than health care is the focus that will get us from treating problems to developing solutions.

The Food Bank Model of Education and the Tyranny of Resiliency

Resiliency enables us to bounce back from adversity, but like an elastic band too much stretching can lead to breakdown. Food banks, once a stop-gap for food security are now a model for education. Are we stretching a little too far?

In a shocking case, a 60-year man allegedly raped his daughter repeatedly over a span of nine years at the behest of an occultist, who said the act would bring prosperity to the family.
The 21-year-old victim, who had been silent about the incident, mustered courage to approach the police after her businessman-father attempted to rape her 15-year-old younger sister.
Besides the father, the Mira Road police in Thane district have arrested the victim's mother for abetting the crime and also the occultist, Hasmukh Rathod. The identity of the family has been withheld by police.
According to the police, the husband and wife were under the influence of the occultist, who told them in July 2000 that the family would prosper if the father were to have a sexual relationship with his elder daughter, who was then 12.
The victim told the police that she could not muster the courage to approach anyone about the incident. But when her father attempted to rape her younger sister, she approached her maternal uncle, after which a police complaint was filed, according to Additional Superintendent of Police Sashikant Mahavarkar.

Swansea swimmer Jazz Carlin signalled her return to top flight competition with a fifth place and personal best in the World Short Course Championships in Istanbul.
Carlin (British Gas ITC Swansea) set a Welsh record as she finished fifth in the 400m Freestyle.
Carlin – who missed out on London 2012 after battles with glandular fever and tonsillitis – improved her national record to 4:02.45 in the final, finishing 1.21 seconds off the podium in the first individual final of her career at World Championship level.
"It's just great to be back in the mix again," said Carlin.
"To qualify eighth then finish fifth is a good achievement and short course isn't one of my strengths.
"If it was long course, I think it would have been a completely different race. But it was nice to feel the adrenalin and the rush that you get when you're in a world class final."
Fellow Swansea swimmers Georgia Davies and Jemma Lowe were also in action as part of the 4x100m Medley Relay team alongside Fran Halsall and who clocked a British record 3:51.85 in the final to finish fourth.
Lizzie Simmonds (British Gas ITC Bath) and Sophie Allen (British Gas ITC Stockport) were also in finals on the middle day of the Championships in the 200m Backstroke and 100m Individual Medley respectively.
Simmonds improved her heat time to finish fifth in 2:04.55 while Allen lowered her PB to 59.03 to finish 0.23 off the podium in sixth.
Olympic silver medallist Michael Jamieson lifted his first world medal with 200m Breaststroke silver at the 2012
After qualifying eighth fastest for the final, the British Gas ITC swimmer put in a determined swim from an outside lane to lower his British record as he touched in 2:03.00.
Hungary's Olympic champion Daniel Gyurta took gold in 2:01.35 but Jamieson found the strength to hold off Russia's Viatcheslav Sinkevich (2:03.08) who settled for bronze.
Jamieson's teammate and training partner Andrew Willis also ducked under the old British marker as he set an English record 2:03.29 to finish fifth.
Willis – who finished eighth at London 2012 – was also in contention throughout the race and insisted touching just 0.21 seconds off the podium places was the perfect motivation for his 2013 season.

Watford 0 - Bournemouth 0: Wasteful Hornets frustrated by Cherries at Vicarage Road
ODION IGHALO endured a frustrating afternoon as Watford's top scorer missed a string of chances.
Odion Ighalo couldn't add to his 15 Premier League goals against Bournemouth
The Nigerian striker has found the net 15 times this season but wasted the best opportunity of the game at Vicarage Road, heading over from just six yards in the second half.
England assistant manager Ray Lewington watched from the stands, checking perhaps on Troy Deeney ahead of Euro 2016, but the Hornets captain also lacked potency on his 250th appearance for the club.
Deeney and Ighalo have scored 22 of Watford's 29 league goals this season but if Quique Sanchez Flores's side have any ambitions of carrying their excellent campaign into the European spots, they will need both to regain form fast.
In their last 18 combined appearances, the duo have only four goals between them.
Sanchez Flores admitted: "It was difficult to play against Bournemouth. They played well and controlled the ball but it was an even game and we both created chances."
Ighalo motored away from Steve Cook and Harry Arter early on but his shot was saved, then Deeney skewed wide from a cross by Juan Carlos Paredes.
Bournemouth's Junior Stanislas hobbled off clutching his thigh in the 23rd minute and was replaced by Max Gradel, the Ivorian forward who joined the Cherries in the summer but has been out since August with a knee injury.
The visitors looked more likely to end the stalemate as Arter's fi zzing drive on the hour drew an excellent save from Heurelho Gomes at full stretch.
Watford, however, should have won it in seven minutes later when winger Nordin Amrabat dug out a cross from the byline but Ighalo, unchallenged, headed over.
MAN OF THE MATCH: HEURELHO GOMES – the keeper may look a little over the top at times but his saves are winning crucial points for Watford.
WATFORD: Gomes; Paredes, Cathcart, Britos, Ake; Behrami, Watson, Capoue (Suarez 57), Amrabat (Abdiat 83); Deeney, Ighalo.
BOURNEMOUTH: Boruc; Smith, Francis, Cook, Daniels; Ritchie (Murray 85), Arter, Surman, Stanislas (Gradelat 23); King, Afobe (Goslingat 74).

EliteXC has issued a press release announcing the signing of Scott Smith to a multi-fight contract.
Terms of the contract have not been disclosed and the promotion has not announced a debut date.
Smith, a middleweight, was a part of the cast for the fourth season of The Ultimate Fighter. He is probably best known for his fight against Pete Sell during the live finale in which he knocked Sell out when he was on the verge of being finished himself.
Smith was let go by the UFC several months ago when the promotion decided to cut many fighters that were under contract to the promotion.

Party Girls: Tracee Ellis Ross—Purr-fect Party Girl Look
Tracee Ellis Ross pulls another great look together at her 39th birthday bash on October 28. She partied the night away at Reign night club in Atlanta while celebrities Kanye West, Fabolous among others came out to help her celebrate.
The "Reed Between The Lines" co-star never disappoints with her fashion forward frocks. Tracee Ellis Ross is a go-to favorite for all things hair, but her flair to make an outfit her own, for any occasion, is a close contender.
Tracee's party look is uncomplicated while eliciting serious style pointers.
Get Tracee's purr-fect party girl look in 5 easy steps:
1. Hair is the main attraction—make sure it's is well moisturized and curls are defined.
Try: Bumble and Bumble Curl Conscious Holding Foam $28
Most people can get away with big hair. Wearing big hair with a simple sheath is the perfect addition of something extra without going over-the-top. Though Tracee's dress is animal print, the design is effortless and doesn't clash with her bigger than life curls.
2. Statement nails—red polish and chip-free edges.
Try: Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colour in Rouge Carat $25
Nails are a good distance from statement making hair, so make another statement with red nails. Wearing a pop of color on your nails in lieu of your face is a great way to command attention without asking for it. Tracee's pairing of red nails with a leopard print has been a staple for years. Keep nail length in check and free of chipped edges. Oh, and the bundle of bracelets with a masculine watch on one arm is quite on trend and cute!
3. Sexy eyes—smudgy black liner.
Try: Tarte SmolderEYES Amazonian Clay Waterproof Liner in Charcoal $25
A quick way to sex up eyes is to smudge the bottom lids in the blackest pencil available. Not only will eyes pop, but it's an easy alternative to the smoky eye. Tracee's smudging doesn't look grungy, but isn't perfect either. This is the look to go for—noticeable, imperfect, yet tactful. This is the perfect edge to a simplistic sheath dress.
4. Pouty lips—delicate pink gloss.
Try: Lancome Juicy Tube Lip Gloss Smoothie in Tickled Pink $18.00
Pink, glossed lips can calm any look. Not to mention, pink, pouty lips with black eyewear is quite seductive. The two looks together create a harmonious feel of something delicate with a complex element. There's an unwritten rule of not pairing heavy makeup with an equally heavy lip color. Tracee obviously received the memo and opted for a pop of color on her nails instead. For a more natural pout, blot edges so the gloss won't run outside of your natural lip line.
5. Flawless nude face—powder your nose.
Try: Make Up Forever Duo Mat Powder Foundation $32.00
Nothing pulls a party look together like great looking skin. Poreless and blemish free skin can be achieved with a few touches of powder foundation. It's difficult to determine if Tracee has perfect skin or a perfect made up palette—and that's the idea. No one should know. A nude face helps to highlight other features of the face and not potential imperfections.

Every team is a little different for University of Tennessee at Chattanooga women's golf coach Colette Murray.
Almost all of them have been champions. Her Mocs have won four consecutive Southern Conference titles and will go for their fifth in a row starting today at Moss Creek Golf Club in Myrtle Beach, S.C.
This team, with just one senior in Jordan Britt, needs to win the championship or its season will be over.
"I don't think we did enough [in the last tournament], so this week is do-or-die for our postseason play," Murray said. "I think we were in that situation last year."
That situation is similar to last year, but not all years, because the Mocs have been ranked high enough sometimes to earn at-large berths in the NCAA tournament. But they didn't need it.
Since UTC restarted its women's program under Murray, the team has placed fifth and runner-up in the conference tournament, followed by the four straight championships.
"A lot of teams will have a couple of good players, but it's the fourth or fifth player who gets it done for your team," Murray said. "I do think we are the best team in the league, and we've proved that in the ranking through the regular season.
UTC is ranked No. 68 in the nation. Elon is No. 83, UNC Greensboro is No. 95 and Samford is No. 99 as the only other SoCon teams in the top 100.
"Elon, Greensboro and Samford, they've all had pretty decent years," Murray said. "I'm confident that if we go play, no one can beat us."
UTC has returned home with the medalist trophy the last three years. The streak started with Emma de Groot and continued with Britt winning in 2012 and Agathe Sauzon winning last year as a sophomore.
Britt, Sauzon or sophomore Emily McLennan could be in the hunt this week. McLennan has one SoCon player of the week award this season. Britt has three and the inside track to player of the year.
"I need to keep on with my putting, and I'm confident going in," said McLennan, who grew up in Australia. "I was part of it last year, and it's awesome to have four straight years of winning."
No matter what happens, this will be Britt's final SoCon tournament. The former high school standout at GPS and Signal Mountain wants to ensure that it's not her final college tournament.
"I'm not going to cry on the first tee, but maybe after my last putt on the last day," she said. "I don't want my season to end any sooner than it has to."
Nor do her teammates.

WASHINGTON (AP) New tax laws will make this year's taxes even more complicated than usual, but the IRS hopes to lift some of the confusion with a new feature designed to help taxpayers find information quickly and easily.
The new information source, called 1040 Central, aims to link taxpayers to detailed information and answer their most common questions. It's available on the IRS home page, and it gathers items from throughout the Web site that can best help individuals filing the common Form 1040 tax forms.
This year, taxpayers can expect to have many questions about new tax laws and tax breaks enacted last summer. Reduced rates on capital gains and dividends, in particular, have added a layer of complexity to forms used by investors.
Most taxpayers get packages of tax forms and instructions from the IRS in early January. The IRS expects to receive 131 million returns in 2004, 60 million of them filed electronically.
Taxpayers who filed their taxes through computer in previous years will not receive the traditional package. They can expect to receive a brochure that explains electronic filing and the identification program used for paperless filing. Some taxpayers with simple returns may be able to file by telephone.
IRS officials say electronic filing, when combined with the direct deposit of a refund into a taxpayer's bank account, speeds refunds to taxpayers in as few as 10 days. The average time is about 14 days. In 2003, more than 44 million refunds were deposited directly into taxpayers' bank accounts. Taxpayers filing the traditional way can wait up to six weeks for a refund.
The IRS also can quickly check for mathematical mistakes and other common errors on electronically filed returns, reducing the chance your tax return will be sent back to you to fix an error.
For the second year, the IRS will make electronic filing programs available to some taxpayers free through its Web site. Companies participating in the Free File Alliance set the guidelines for taxpayers to use their programs without charge.
The IRS will send 34 million tax packages and nearly 28 million computer filing brochures this year. The effort costs $7.5 million to print and $12 million to mail, and average cost of 31 cents per package.
Taxpayers should use the name labels included in the mailed packages on their tax returns. They will have to add their Social Security numbers.
Anyone already expecting to pay a large tax bill and planning to procrastinate until the April 15 deadline may want to consider filing early and authorizing an electronic withdrawal from a checking or savings account for April 15. Taxpayers also can pay electronically by credit card. More than 1.2 million people paid their federal taxes by electronic funds withdrawal or credit card in 2003, a 60 percent increase over the previous year.
Electronic transfers are free, but credit card companies charge a small convenience fee for their tax services.

Saturday, October 6, 2012, was no ordinary Saturday in the Loch Raven community. Grade 8 students from Loch Raven Technical Academy came to help out at the school's first annual Loch Beautification Day.
They helped improve the curb appeal of the school by planting flowers, pulling weeds from the flower beds, and undertaking a massive painting job—the school's famous, very long, very purple ramp. Armed with paintbrushes, enthusiasm, willing spirits, and nifty white painter's caps, the students earned service learning hours while providing a valuable service to the community.
The students in attendance discussed the importance of Beautification Day, stating that by improving the outer appearance of the building, the community would be cleaner, neater, and the school would appear to be more inviting for students and visitors alike. The students worked diligently all morning, and their efforts are greatly appreciated by staff and community members.
Principal Stacey Johnson initiated Beautification Day as part of her vision to maintain an attractive, inviting learning environment for her students and staff. The hard work of the students can be seen and appreciated simply by taking a drive on LaSalle Road.Visitors will know when they've reached Loch Raven. It is the school with the beautifully painted purple railings!

Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio admits he'd much prefer to play the Super Cup on home soil.
Juve face Napoli in Beijing in two weeks' time.
"It's a shame that we are not playing the game in Italy," the Azzurri midfielder wrote on his official Facebook page.
"However, I'm certain that even in Beijing there will be a lot of our fans who will charge us up with their affection."
Juventus will warm up for that match with a friendly against Benfica on Wednesday. "We have to keep working to make sure that we are in the best shape for the Napoli game."

this crazy pop modern meets beidermeier pedestal sofa popped up as an ad on our maison21 facebook page, and it was love at first sight. m21 lives for quirky pieces that combine the best of two opposite worlds, in this case, fine biedermeier antiques and 60's pop modern styling, and this unique sofa charmed the pants off him immediately (normally, that takes a cocktail or two ;-).
we know nothing of the austrian company who manufactures this lovely item, gaisbauer furniture (their larger oeuvre seems to be more traditional biedermeier repros), or if gaisbauer even has representation for those of us living in the united states, but we thought we'd share anyway.
ps- if you visit gaisbauer's facebook page, you'll note the sofa has a contrasting patterned fabric on the back. ick. we had to change that in photoshop asap, so we could fully express our love. apologies for taking liberties with your product, mr. or ms gaisbauer furniture person.

Bomb Attack On Pakistani Court Kills 13
At least 13 people were killed and 50 wounded in a bomb attack on a district court in northwestern Pakistan.
Haris Habib, the chief rescue officer in the city of Mardan in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, said on September 2 that the bodies of police, lawyers, and others were recovered.
Reports say the attacker first threw a grenade at the court entrance and then blew himself up at the main gate.
Some of the wounded are reportedly in critical condition.
A spokesman for the extremist Muslim group Jamat ul-Ahrar, an offshoot of the Pakistani Taliban, claimed responsibility for the attack.
Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said the bombing would "not shatter our unflinching resolve in our war against terrorism."
"These receding elements are showing frustration by attacking our soft targets. They shall not get space to hide in Pakistan," he said in a statement.
Mardan city police official Faisal Shahzad described the attack to Radio Mashaal.
"[The suicide attacker] was intercepted by police at the walk-through gate of the session courts...[and] threw a hand-grenade at the policemen, who [were] injured in the blast. The injured policemen opened fire and chased him."
He said one policeman shot him dead and that the attacker's suicide belt exploded at that time.

Nobody is brain-damaged because of this. The one who where brain-damaged are the one that wrote #!/bin/sh when they really wanted to write #!/bin/bash instead...

I really love MSDN's navigation menu, the way you can expand/collapse contents and they load dynamically. How would they have been done? Is it an IFrame that just reloads each time something's clicked? Are they all just a bunch of hidden divs?
Is there an ASP.NET control that can produce something as pretty as that?
Thanks for any information. I'm not looking to rip off their design, just interested in the way it would work.

Mark Hughes, the Manchester City manager, said last night that it was unrealistic to believe the club's newfound wealth might lead to them challenging for a Champions League place this season.
With Liverpool visiting Eastlands tomorrow, Hughes will have the chance to see how far his players have to go before they can compete on equal terms with the Premier League's leading four clubs. Yet even with an extensive recruitment programme planned for January, he has been keen to downplay their chances of doing it in his first season as manager.
"That's a big ask for us," said Hughes. "There are four good sides who reside there at the moment. We, on the other hand, are a young team and we don't have the consistency of performance yet to be viewed as a possible top-four team. That's what we're working towards because that's the mark of a top side, if you can win consistently. But we're not there yet. It's still very early and we have to be realistic."
Hughes admitted being alarmed when Dr Sulaiman Al-Fahim, the billionaire businessman who had initially acted as spokesman for the club's new Abu Dhabi-based owners, talked of expecting a Champions League finish. Those predictions went down badly with the Abu Dhabi United Group, however, and Al-Fahim has now been marginalised, to the relief of City's manager. "There were statements made when the takeover came to light but the people who made those statements have moved aside," said Hughes. "It's a lot more realistic now."
He believes a top-six place is possible but he cited the fact that City's last game against a member of the Big Four ended in a chastening 3-1 defeat at home to Chelsea. "We're only five games further down the line," he said. "We're a young team with good players but who don't have a great deal of experience in the Premier League and some of them still haven't understood the intensity of it yet."
Robinho is among the newcomers to the Premier League at City but the Brazilian has his sights set far higher than Hughes and does not rule out challenging for the championship. He believes the team can put down a marker against Liverpool. "This is a great time to start winning games against the bigger teams so we can prove we are here to win the title," he said. "We are not far from the leaders and the league has just started."

The build-up to Black Friday and Cyber Monday has seen the appearance of some very tantalising mirrorless camera deals on Amazon over the past few days, and we can only expect more to appear in the coming weeks. From the brand new Lumix GX7 to the classic Fuji X100 to the bargain Sony A3000 and 55-210mm lens bundle, nearly every brand has something interesting to offer.
The first deal is on the Panasonic Lumix GX7. This is the second time the GX7 has been given a discount since its release and this can only be good news for MFT lovers. Having almost completed our full review of the camera, we can say with confidence that it is the most user-friendly and well-designed professional MILCs available for under $1000. The best feature is the built-in tilting electronic viewfinder which does not impact the compactness of the GX7 whatsoever. The autofocus is speedy and accurate, the video is usable on a professional level, and the camera body just feels great in your hand.
Next up is a favourite amongst Fujifilm digital cameras – the sleek and discreet Fuji X100 special black edition, whose performance has been greatly improved thanks to a recent firmware update. It has received a significant discount. If you have a look at the used cameras section of Amazon, you'll see that certain vendors are selling the camera for much less as well.
Finally, we have an amazing deal on the new Sony A3000 and the 55-210mm lens. You can save on the bundle while supplies last. The A3000 has a 20 MP Exmor APS-C sensor, a light portable body and Full HD video recording. Though it resembles a DSLR, it is completely mirrorless; it has been designed that way to attract those who prefer the appearance of a DSLR!
Which mirrorless camera would you like to see discounted before Christmas?

The Association of Communitarian Health Services (ASECSA) and the Role of Religion and Health in Central America
Susan Fitzpatrick-Behrens
The Association of Communitarian Health Services (ASECSA) is a transnational, religiously influenced health program in Central America created during the Cold War. ASECSA was founded in 1978 by a small group of international health professionals with ties to programs started by Catholic and Protestant clergy and laity in Guatemala's western highlands in the 1960s. It introduced a model of healthcare in which Maya health promoters and midwives became partners in healing rather than objects to be cured. Support for the health programs and ASECSA came from secular and religious international agencies, including the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), German Misereor, Catholic Relief Services, and the World Council of Churches. ASECSA was founded to disseminate knowledge of popular health education strategies used by health promoters and midwives to provide preventive and curative medical services to their communities. The education methods grew from Paulo Freire's Pedagogy of the Oppressed and its use by religious agents influenced by liberation theology. Although it was founded in Guatemala, ASECSA's publications and meetings attracted participation by health professionals and paraprofessionals from Mexico, Central America, and even the Caribbean. Ecumenical religious centers affiliated with liberation theology in the 1960s and 1970s facilitated the development of popular health programs that played a defining role in the region.
Religion and Politics in 20th Century Central America
Virginia Garrard-Burnett
The role of religion shifted dramatically in Central American politics during the 20th century, as the Catholic Church moved from a position as conservator of the status quo to a powerful force for reform and human rights. The century also witnessed the rise, then the "boom," of Protestant—specifically Pentecostal—religion. By the century's end, Central America had become among the most Protestant regions of Latin America, with every country except Costa Rica and Belize measuring a large and rising evangélico minority. These changes unfolded alongside, and deeply affected, one of the most traumatic and violent periods in the region's history, the so-called Central American crisis of the late 1970s and 1980s, when Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Guatemala became the battlegrounds for one of the last large proxy wars of the larger Cold War, between Marxist insurgencies and authoritarian governments.

Embodiment Analysis for Greenhouse Gas Emissions by Chinese Economy Based on Global Thermodynamic Potentials
AbstractThis paper considers the Global Thermodynamic Potential (GTP) indicator to perform a unified assessment of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and to systematically reveal the emission embodiment in the production, consumption, and international trade of the Chinese economy in 2007 as the most recent year available with input-output table and updated inventory data. The results show that the estimated total direct GHG emissions by the Chinese economy in 2007 amount to 10,657.5 Mt CO2-eq by the GTPs with 40.6% from CH4 emissions in magnitude of the same importance as CO2 emissions. The five sectors of Electric Power/Steam and Hot Water Production and Supply, Smelting and Pressing of Ferrous and Nonferrous Metals, Nonmetal Mineral Products, Agriculture, and Coal Mining and Dressing, are responsible for 83.3% of the total GHG emissions with different emission structures. The demands of coal and coal-electricity determine the structure of emission embodiment to an essential extent. The Construction sector holds the top GHG emissions embodied in both domestic production and domestic consumption. The GHG emission embodied in gross capital formation is more than those in other components of final demand characterized by extensive investment and limited household consumption. China is a net exporter of embodied GHG emissions, with a remarkable share of direct emission induced by international trade, such as textile products, industrial raw materials, and primary machinery and equipment products exports. The fractions of CH4 in the component of embodied GHG emissions in the final demand are much greater than those fractions calculated by the Global Warming Potentials, which highlight the importance of CH4 emissions for the case of China and indicate the essential effect of CH4 emissions on global climate change. To understand the full context to achieve GHG emission mitigation, this study provides a new insight to address China's GHG emissions status and hidden emission information induced by the final demand to the related policy-makers.

It's good to see the writers are continuing to make horrible battles. I have been seriously dissapointed at the battles we had ever since I was enlightened to what they could be and what they really are.
It seems the only effort that is put into making battles is the important ones such as Ash vs. Paul and Ash vs. Takuto, well, Infernape vs. Electivire and Pikachu vs. Latios.
Especially in the Sinnoh League I want to see masterful tactics. Spectacular bouts of strength. Masterful displays of passion. Not Pokémon X uses move A. Pokémon Y uses move B. Pokémon A fainted. Severely disspointing battle.
0/10 in terms of the battle.
On the other hand the character interaction was great. Conway never fails to entertain me with his creepiness. Barry was also great with his hyper-activity. Paul is as much of a jerk as ever. Glad to see the writer can put some effort into the show.
I really don't remember Nando talking the way he did but I can't complain, it was a great voice for someone like him.

West Texas teen who survived 2 strokes scores TD
LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) � Just three months after Kenbriel Hearn emerged from a coma, the 18-year-old football star scored the most memorable touchdown of his life.
The senior at Memphis High School suffered two strokes caused by a bleeding mass on his brain and spent three weeks on life support. By the time he awoke this past summer, his 5-foot-7 frame had withered from 160 pounds to 112. He was paralyzed on his right side, unable to walk or talk.
His football season was the last thing on his mind.
Once regaining the ability to jog, Hearn found himself back in pads when his coach asked him to suit up for the Cyclones' final home game. He figured he was on the sideline for moral support, but unbeknownst to him, both coaches had arranged for a special moment to highlight his road to recovery..........
Now these are two Coaches with a capital C...bravo for them and both the teams!

Many times when developing or assembling applications a need arises to have the ability to substitute a value with something . Many times you may not know the actual value at assembly time or you wish the value to be defined in a single location which can also be updated. This capability now exists within composite applications starting in Lotus Expeditor 6.2.1 and Lotus Notes 8.5.1. The mechanism behind dynamic variable substitution support in composite applications is the org.eclipse.core.variables.dynamicVariables extension point. In this latest release the resolver supports reading dynamic variables from Eclipse plugin preferences. This means that you can specify a variable value in your plugin_customization.ini file by using the following convention:
<plugin id>/<variable name>=<value>
This will set the value properly within the framework. The next step is to simply reference this within your composite application. Areas that support string substitution with composite applications include all page and component preferences, along with many of the inputs used when defining an application containment configuration component. The following screen shots show how an application assembler can use the variable substitution mechanism to set the default URL for a defined browser component:
First we edit the plugin_customization.ini file to contain the value of our variable. For this example we are using a URL value to be used to set the default URL for a browser component within a basic composite application. The preference **browserUrl** in the topologyhandler plugin is the newly created preference we will use. The contents of the file look like this:
Next we open our composite application within the Composite Application Editor and we right click on our browser component and choose to edit properties. We go to the initialURL property in the component configuration and we enter in the preference value in the format ${ECLIPSE:<plugin id>/<preference name>}.
Since the value of the url was set to be http://www.ibm.com, after we refresh when clicking OK on our component properties tab, we see the browser default URL will be set to our value:
There is no restriction on which preference values can use substitution. Even newly created values the assembler has added are supported.
Using Variable Substitution with the Container Framework
When creating container framework components, we can use the CAE landmark editor UI or the toolbar UI (for most container components) in order to defineLandmarks and the actions to be executed within those landmarks. In short, aLandmark is a specific state in which a series of actions should execute in relation to the component. An example of this would be for a browser based container component where we wish to execute a series ofpublish actions when a particular URL is reached. The assembler defines theLandmark URL, the event which triggers the actions when the landmark is reached and the actions to be executed. The landmark editor panel looks like this:
Notice how we have a variable substitution in the Landmark field. In this particular composite application I created a preference called **defaultLandmark** with a plugin ID of com.ibm.rcp.composite.container.core. Variable substitution is also supported by the default **publish** and **receive** actions. For example, when using a web browser container component, I may choose to publish the value of the field as shown in the above screen shot. Instead of hard coding the value in there I could use variable substitution by adding my preference to the plugin_customization.ini (as shown above) and then using that value as the field value. Here are some steps outlining these techniques:
1. Make the change to the plugin_customization.ini file to add my preference.
2. We add our variable in to the **field** text box.
Using the Eclipse Preference Store as a Variable Source
The current support for dynamic variables works off of the Eclipse preference store. One of the benefits to using the Eclipse preferences is that there are a few ways to set these values. As outlined in the above examples, the plugin_customization.ini file can be used to statically set different preference values. This method is best used if the preferences your application will be accessing will not be changing often. It allows the assembler to set the value from a single location and not have to worry about modifying configurations within composite applications which reference this value.
Another way of setting preferences is through the Eclipse preferences API. This allows application developers to add a higher level of dynamicity to their applications since the preference value can be changed dynamically at runtime. Each time the value is accessed the change will be picked up and application behavior can change accordingly. Applications can be deployed to many users who may have different configurations which may result in slightly different settings for certain preferences. Using dynamic variable substitution in this manner can greatly reduce deployment and assembly headaches by not having to "special case" a configuration.
Setting Eclipse Preferences Programmatically
In order to set an Eclipse preference to be used by the variable substitution mechanism, the preference must be store in the proper format (as described above). This means, that the preference must be scoped to a plugin. This code snippet shows how to access the Eclipse preferences service and set a value that can be picked up by the variable substitution mechanism.
Access the preferences for a given plugin by retrieving the preferences from the plugin Activator class:
Preferences preferences = Activator.getPreferences();
preferences.setValue(key, value);
Using Dynamic Variable Substitution in Composite Applications
Good suggestions! We will look into doing this very thing. The nice thing about this is that you can also create your own variable resolvers since this is an Eclipse based extension point. You could implement this exact functionality yourself by implementing an extension of the extension point and interface shown here --> http://help.eclipse.org/help33/ntopic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/api/org/eclipse/core/variables/IDynamicVariable.html
Good and useful new feature!
Have you thought about a syntax add-on to define a default value in case an Eclipse preference does not exist on a machine?
Something like this:
"${ECLIPSE:< plugin id >/ < preference name > }||defaultValue"
You should also mention in your article that Eclipse preferences can be deployed automatically via policy. So only a developer should have to change the plugin_customization.ini.
For a later version, something like this may also be interesting:
${NOTESINI:$UserVariable} or ${NOTESINI:SystemVariable}

Been hunting around for the cause of this issue for awhile, it was present right after installation
of Sabayon 11 and still present after being fully updated to the latest packages.
All partitions were formatted for a fresh clean install, happened on two different installations,
first time updates wheren't performed cleanly, second time followed to the letter on updating
immediately after install.
After installation of a game that does install menu entries into [Applications -> Games]
but not the sub directories like [Games -> Arcade] would be completely igonored even
though doing a menu search would find their entry with the correct icons.
Right clicking on the KDE launcher and selecting edit applications and opening KDE Menu Editor
clicking [Edit -> Restore to System Menu] fixes the issue, though careful this will nuke any
manual customizations you've made to the menu entries.
This took me awhile to find, and several hours of grief trying to figure out what was wrong on my own,
before finding a post talking about the menu restore feature.
Pretty sure this from the stock Sabayon installation image and all the way to updated to current,
so figured I'd post it since everyone using a KDE edition probable has this problem.
And the first thing a newbie ^^ is going to do is see whats in the games repositories (like Steam)
and wonder why they have no menu entries for anything they installed.
