Muench told the assembly that gave the newly ordained Father Johnson a lengthy and rousing standing ovation. Father Johnson, 26, who is assigned to Christ the King Church and Student Center in Baton Rouge, said after the service he was, “Grateful, grateful, grate- ful. Words cannot express how grateful I am to God, our father, for choosing me to share in the priesthood of his son, Jesus Christ, and for giving me such a beauti- ful bride in the people of the Church. God has blessed me so much and I am so grateful to serve with my bishop, priests, religious and lay faithful to form the saints of this generation.” Dozens of those priests, deacons, seminarians and fellow classmates from Baton Rouge and New Orleans joined hundreds of religious and lay people at the May 31 ceremony that combined the traditional and noble music of the St. Jo- Bishop Robert W.

  • 108 Kansas History “Facing This Vast Hardness”: the Plains Landscape and the People Shaped by It in Recent Kansas/Plains Film
    Premiere of Dark Command, Lawrence, 1940. Courtesy of the Douglas County Historical Society, Watkins Museum of History, Lawrence, Kansas. Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 38 (Summer 2015): 108–135 108 Kansas History “Facing This Vast Hardness”: The Plains Landscape and the People Shaped by It in Recent Kansas/Plains Film edited and introduced by Thomas Prasch ut the great fact was the land itself which seemed to overwhelm the little beginnings of human society that struggled in its sombre wastes. It was from facing this vast hardness that the boy’s mouth had become so “ bitter; because he felt that men were too weak to make any mark here, that the land wanted to be let alone, to preserve its own fierce strength, its peculiar, savage kind of beauty, its uninterrupted mournfulness” (Willa Cather, O Pioneers! [1913], p. 15): so the young boy Emil, looking out at twilight from the wagon that bears him backB to his homestead, sees the prairie landscape with which his family, like all the pioneers scattered in its vastness, must grapple. And in that contest between humanity and land, the land often triumphed, driving would-be settlers off, or into madness. Indeed, madness haunts the pages of Cather’s tale, from the quirks of “Crazy Ivar” to the insanity that leads Frank Shabata down the road to murder and prison. “Prairie madness”: the idea haunts the literature and memoirs of the early Great Plains settlers, returns with a vengeance during the Dust Bowl 1930s, and surfaces with striking regularity even in recent writing of and about the plains.

We are faced with the action straight away as a sheep farmer Albert Stark (played by director/ star/ co-producer/ co-writer Seth MacFarlane) reluctantly faces a main street gunfight. The smiling crowds are gathered hopefully expecting a bloody shootout and are disappointed when Albert chickens out. He loses his girlfriend Louise (Amanda Seyfried) over this and when in the bar with his friends Ruth (Sarah Silverman) and Edward (Giovanni Ribisi) reveals that he hates the West and wants a city life in San Francisco.

As nearly as we can learn, the only origin which has been suggested for the devices combined in the national colors of our country is, that they were adopted from the coat of arms of General Washing- ton. This imputed origin is not such as would be consonant with the known modesty of Washington, or the spirit of the times in which the flag was adopted. We have, therefore, been at some pains to collect authentic statements in reference to our national colors, and with these, have introduced letters exhibiting the temper of those times, step by step, with the changes made in the flag, so com- bining them as to form a chain of proof, which, we think, must be conclusive.

The question, however, remains as to what extent this report- ed scepticism truly reflects people’s opinions and feelings about Europe. We all consider it normal to cross borders within Europe, often while using the same money, as well as to take part in exchange programmes, invest in enterprises across Europe and appeal to European institutions if national regulations, for example, do not meet our expectations.

  • The “True Betsy Ross Flag”
    13 Star United States Flag - The “True Betsy Ross Flag” Date: circa 1780 Medium: Hand loomed wool bunting, with hand sewn cotton stars, cotton and hemp heading, with red worsted twill ties, hand sewn linen and cotton threads. Comment: 13 Star U.S. Flag – “The True Betsy Ross Flag” - This single ring with larger center star flag dates from the American Revolution. Americans are familiar with the so-called Betsy Ross pattern, often depicted as a flag with a single ring of 13 stars with a void in the center. The single ring of 13 stars flag is mythologicaly accepted as the first U.S. flag dated 1777 conceived by Betsy Ross. This has never been documented, and no flag with this design is known to have existed. Only a single period image of such a design dates to 1782 and it is an artist’s interpretation. Based on surviving examples, it is clear that a single ring of 12 stars around a center star was the design crafted in the late 1770s and 1780s, not just by Mrs. Ross, but throughout the American Colonies. A void in the center of a ring of stars, as a design element, was anathema to 18th century flag designers, and all surviving period examples contain something – a star, an eagle, a monogram or other device - within the ring, like this example. There are a number of examples that have survived, leaving evidence of what the earliest flags looked like. They are all an oblong circle with some device in the middle if they are not of straight horizontal row patterns.

  • The Rise of Mary and the European Union
    The Rise of Mary and the European Union The False Doctrine of Immaculate Conception The Roman Catholic Church believes that Mary was conceived "immaculately" and she was therefore without sin. The doctrine was invented to explain how Jesus, who was sinless, did not inherit "original (or birth) sin" from his mother. The term does not refer to the virginal conception of Jesus. That Jesus was sinless is a clear biblical doctrine, but as he is eternally divine, the miracle of his incarnation in itself would have dealt with the problem of original sin, and the "Immaculate Conception" of Mary doctrine is - " ... not to be required of any man, that it should be believed as an article of Faith..." Incarnation The taking of human form by Jesus the Eternal Word of God via the womb of Mary. Literally, "to make into flesh". This was a supernatural act of creation within Mary's womb by God's Holy Spirit. Matthew 1:18-21, Luke 1:25 & John 1:14 Virgin Birth or Virginal Conception Refers to the birth of Jesus by Mary. Some confusion exists here in that some are under the impression that the term means that Jesus was born without rupturing Mary's hymen. There is nothing in scripture to suggest such a "miracle" took place or that Jesus was not born in the normal way. The term is best applied in the sense that Mary had never had sexual intercourse before or after the "virginal conception" of Jesus and that she abstained until after he was born. In many ways the term "virginal conception" is a perhaps a clearer way of describing the matter.
