When ^' Toby Twinkle " announced to the assembled com- pany that the '•' eatables and drinkables '^ were ready, he excited their appetites, by adding, as an assurance of the extra quality of the food, that he knew the dishes were good, for he had "tasted ^em all 'round." I here present a humble literary feast, (the materials for which were obtained from the four great markets, Europe, Asia, Africa and America), plainly cooked, and, I trust, agreeably seasoned with incident and auecdote.

    Tony Iommi/Black Sabbath and Judas Priest backs #ILoveMetal – The world’s biggest ever metal-music charity prize draw. Visit - www.ilovemetal.co.uk Donated by international metal-music industry heavyweights such as Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Nuclear Blast, My Dying Bride, Laney, Epiphone, Earache, Sony/BMG, Razamataz, PRS Guitars, Live Nation/Download, 5BAM, Bravado, and UK Metal Merger resulting in nine incredible bundles, with over 1,000 items of ‘money-can’t-buy’ metal memorabilia, merchandise and rarities - #ILoveMetal is the world’s biggest ever metal-music charity prize draw. In partnership with Julie Weir/Music For Nations – the #ILoveMetal collection was collated by the UK Metal Merger ‘In Solitude’ single supergroup collaboration, again with the motivation of raising funds for the Stagehand Charity. Stagehand is the only UK charity that specifically helps music stage and road crew, and is dedicated to providing severe-hardship funding and mental health support for live events industry workers. The #ILoveMetal campaign is critical to supporting the ‘behind the scenes’ workers in the live music industry that, right now, are in crisis. Without them there won't be a live events industry, even when covid restrictions are lifted. Whilst providing the opportunity to win money-can’t-buy prizes, #ILoveMetal is a way for the metal community to come together to support live music (a cause very dear to our hearts and ears!) giving back to the people who make these life-affirming events happen. This is not an auction! It is a series of prize draws for each available bundle. With an auction, only fans with the deepest pockets get involved, whereas with a prize draw the whole international metal community can participate through £5 entries via the #ILoveMetal Crowdfunder page.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Vincentian Digital Books by an authorized administrator of Via Sapientiae. For more information, please contact [email protected]. With his insightful analysis of the Funeral Oration of St. Vincent de Paul, Rev. Udovic, in three introductory chapters, lays the groundwork for the reading of the actual Oration, placing it in the context of the history of Church and State in the seventeenth century. He shows also how Maupas du Tour carefully crafted his panegyric to avoid the censure of church authorities in his depiction of Vincent de Paul and his works, while, at the same time, artfully giving the Crown, Mazarin, and the nobles a place of honor in the text. Copious illustrations of significant persons and places give life to the book. A must for any serious study of Vincentian historiography. —Marie Poole, D.C. Historian and Author; Editor of Vincent de Paul: Correspondence, Conferences, Documents Everyone with an interest in Vincent de Paul will welcome this English translation of Maupas du Tour’s funeral oration.

  • JUDAS PRIEST BIOGRAPHY There Are Few Heavy Metal Bands That
    JUDAS PRIEST BIOGRAPHY There are few heavy metal bands that have managed to scale the heights that Judas Priest have during their nearly 50-year career. Their presence and influence remains at an all-time high as evidenced by 2014's 'Redeemer of Souls' being the highest charting album of their career, a 2010 Grammy Award win for 'Best Metal Performance', being a 2006 VH1 Rock Honors recipient, a 2017 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nomination, and they will soon release their 18th studio album, 'Firepower', through Epic Records. Judas Priest originally formed in 1969 in Birmingham, England (an area that many feel birthed heavy metal). Rob Halford, Glenn Tipton, K.K. Downing and Ian Hill would be the nucleus of musicians (along with several different drummers over the years) that would go on to change the face of heavy metal. After a 'feeling out' period of a couple of albums, 1974's 'Rocka Rolla' and 1976's 'Sad Wings of Destiny' this line-up truly hit their stride. The result was a quartet of albums that separated Priest from the rest of the hard rock pack - 1977's 'Sin After Sin', 1978's 'Stained Class' and 'Hell Bent for Leather', and 1979's 'Unleashed in the East', which spawned such metal anthems as 'Sinner', 'Diamonds and Rust', 'Hell Bent for Leather', and 'The Green Manalishi (With the Two-Pronged Crown)'. Also, Priest were one of the first metal bands to exclusively wear leather and studs – a look that began during this era and would eventually be embraced by metal heads throughout the world.

    The Compleat Works of Nostradamus -=][ compiled and entered in PDF format by Arcanaeum: 2003 ][=- Table of Contents: Preface Century I Century II Century III Century IV Century V Century VI Century VII Century VIII Century IX Century X Epistle To King Henry II Pour les ans Courans en ce Siecle (roughly translated: for the years’ events in this century) Almanacs: 1555−1563 Note: Many of these are written in French with the English Translation directly beneath them. Preface by: M. Nostradamus to his Prophecies Greetings and happiness to César Nostradamus my son Your late arrival, César Nostredame, my son, has made me spend much time in constant nightly reflection so that I could communicate with you by letter and leave you this reminder, after my death, for the benefit of all men, of which the divine spirit has vouchsafed me to know by means of astronomy. And since it was the Almighty's will that you were not born here in this region [Provence] and I do not want to talk of years to come but of the months during which you will struggle to grasp and understand the work I shall be compelled to leave you after my death: assuming that it will not be possible for me to leave you such [clearer] writing as may be destroyed through the injustice of the age [1555]. The key to the hidden prediction which you will inherit will be locked inside my heart. Also bear in mind that the events here described have not yet come to pass, and that all is ruled and governed by the power of Almighty God, inspiring us not by bacchic frenzy nor by enchantments but by astronomical assurances: predictions have been made through the inspiration of divine will alone and the spirit of prophecy in particular.

    PRESSEINFORMATION JUDAS PRIEST 25. Juni 2020 Stuttgart Schleyer-Halle 50 Heavy Metal Years Gäste: Saxon Es gibt nur wenige Metal-Bands, die die Höhen erklimmen konnten, die JUDAS PRIEST im Laufe ihrer 50-jährigen Karriere erreichte. Ihre Präsenz und ihr Einfluss sind so stark wie nie zuvor, was sie durch das Album „Firepower“, das 2018 einen bisher in ihrer Karriere unerreichten Höhepunkt in den Charts erreichte, einen Grammy Award für „Best Metal Performance“ 2010, die Auszeichnung mit den VH1 Rock Honors 2006 und einer Nominierung für die Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2017 bewies. Die Band, die nun zu Beginn des 50. Jahres in der Branche für die Feier dieser glorreichen Karriere gerüstet ist, wird sich 2020 auf eine legendäre Jubiläumstour zum 50. Jahrestag begeben. Am 25. Juni ist die britische Heavy Metal-Legende um „Metal God“ Rob Halford live in der Stuttgarter Schleyer-Halle zu erleben. Es gibt nur eine geringe Anzahl von Bands, die so viel erreicht und so viele Musiker beeinflusst haben wie JUDAS PRIEST. Allein die Anzahl der erfolgreichen Gruppen, die sich nach bekannten JUDAS PRIEST-Songs benannt haben, spricht Bände. JUDAS PRIESTs Debütalbum „Rocka Rolla“ erscheint 1974, seit dem Klassiker „British Steel“ (1980) lieferten Rob Halford, K. K. Downing, Glenn Tipton und Ian Hill gemeinsam mit verschiedenen Schlagzeugern im Laufe der Jahre weitere Genre-Meilensteine: „Screaming For Vengeance“ (1982) und „Painkiller“ (1990) stehen in jeder Metal- Sammlung dieser Welt. Die Engländer sind nicht nur verantwortlich für den prägenden Lederlook vieler anderer Bands, sie haben auch unzählige Klassiker geschrieben: Ohne „Breaking The Law“, „You´ve Got Another Thing Coming“ oder „Living After Midnight“ findet auch 2017 keine Rock- und Metal-Party statt.
