70-72 LA COLOMBERIE, ST HELIER, JERSEY Report in Response to An
70-72 LA COLOMBERIE,ST HELIER,JERSEY Report in response to an objection to the proposed Listing(grade 4) Background In January 2015, an appeal was submitted by MS Planning, on behalf of the owner, against the proposed listing (grade 4)of 70-72 La Colomberie (Colomberie Coach Station). Consequently, Jersey Heritage commissioned me to write a report on the value of the proposed listing, as I had undertaken the resurvey assessment of the building in January 2013. I am a qualified architect and have worked on a broad range of new-build and refurbishment projects in London and Ireland.I graduated from Edinburgh University in 1981 (MA Arch) and returned to York University, Institute of Advanced Architectural Studies in 1990 to obtain an MA. Over the last ten years my work has focusedon heritage -its protection and regeneration. Between 2010 and 2013 I was involved in the Historic Environment Resurvey of Jersey where I gained a detailed knowledge of the built environment across the Island. I have also undertaken listed building survey work for the Second Survey of Historic Buildings in N. Ireland.Since 2009 I have been a member of the statutory Historic Buildings Council of N. Ireland advising on the listing of buildings. Colomberie Coach Station Colomberie Coach Stationsits on the south side of La Colomberie within an area of 1950s development including Colomberie Parade opposite. Blue Coach Tours originally operated their business from the building which is now functioning as commercial showrooms. It is proposed as a listed building (grade 4) Planning and Environment as: examples of a particular historical period, architectural style or building type; but defined particularlyfor their exterior characteristics and contribution to townscape, landscape or Under this category it is recognised that buildings may not have well preserved interiors; that the exterior, while retaining its general characteristics and proportions, may be altered1. -

March 9, 2021 Brenda Mallory Chair White House Council on Environmental Quality 730 Jackson Pl NW Washington, DC 20506 Via email Re: Utility disconnection moratorium for Tennessee Valley Authority Dear Ms. Mallory, Please find attached petitions signed by over 21,500 people from Tennessee and beyond urging the Tennessee Valley Authority to institute a utility shutoff moratorium throughout its service area. As the letters attached state, “Without electricity, people won’t be able to shelter in homes that are a safe temperature, support remote schooling for their kids, or refrigerate their medicines. It is a decision that literally has life-or-death consequences.” For several months throughout the pandemic, advocates have urged TVA to institute such a moratorium, but to no avail. We now call upon President Biden to act, by issuing an Executive Order directing TVA to keep people’s power on-- the only responsible option during a pandemic. Please also find attached a memo outlining the President’s authority to issue an Executive Order to this effect. Sincerely, Tom Cormons Executive Director Appalachian Voices Erich Pica President Friends of the Earth Cc: Gina McCarthy, White House National Security Advisor Representative Peter DeFazio, Chair, House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure Senator Tom Carper, Chair, Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works Representative Frank Pallone, Chair, House Committee on Energy and Commerce Tennessee Congressional delegation Attachments: Executive Actions for Immediate COVID relief and economic recovery via the Tennessee Valley Authority, Appalachian Voices Appalachian Voices petition Appalachia Voices petition signatories Friends of the Earth petition Friends of the Earth petition signatories EXECUTIVE ACTIONS FOR IMMEDIATE COVID RELIEF AND ECONOMIC RECOVERY VIA THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AUTHORITY The Tennessee Valley Authority was established in the 1930s by a federal mandate to bring flood relief, economic stimulus and improved quality of life to the people of the Tennessee Valley. -
Eminent Victorians
CARDINAL MANNING EMINENT VICTORIANS CARDINAL MANNING -FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE DR. ARNOLD -GENERAL GORDON BY LYTTON STRACHEY WITH PORTRAITS G. P. PUTNAM’s SONS NEW YORK AND LONDON The Knickerbocker Press 1918 To H. T. J. N. PREFACE THE history of the Victorian Age will never be written: we know too much about it. For ignorance is the first requisite of the historian— ignorance, which simplifies and clarifies, which selects and omits, with a placid perfection unattainable by the highest art. Concerning the Age which has just passed, our fathers and our grandfathers have poured forth and accumulated so vast a quantity of information that the industry of a Ranke would be submerged by it, and the perspi- cacity of a Gibbon would quail before it. It is not by the direct me- thod of a scrupulous narration that the explorer of the past can hope to depict that singular epoch. If he is wise, he will adopt a subtler strategy. He will attack his subject in unexpected places; he will fall upon the flank, or the rear; he will shoot a sudden, revealing search- light into obscure recesses, hitherto undivined. He will row out over that great ocean of material, and lower down into it, here and there, a little bucket, which will bring up to the light of day some characte- ristic specimen, from those far depths, to be examined with a careful curiosity. Guided by these considerations, I have written the ensuing studies. I have attempted, through the medium of biography, to present some Victorian visions to the modern eye. -
Alfred the Wise
ALFRED THE WISE Studies in honour of Janet Bately on the occasion of her sixty-fifth birthday EDITED BY Jane Roberts and Janet L. Nelson with Maleolm Godden D. S. BREWER '... sicut olim gens Franeorum ... nunc gens Anglorum': Fulk's Letter to Alfred Revisited JANET L NELSON For many historians of Anglo-Saxon England, the letter of Archbishop Fulk of Rheims to Alfred has seemed a significant piece of evidence for the king's contacts and aspirations} From time to time, however, the letter's authenticity has been impugned; and even those who do not doubt the letter's genuineness have found something faintly offensive in its 'arrogant and patronising tone'.2 While the letter's 'tone' may help explain its relative neglect by English historians, its most suspicious feature also explains its near-total neglect by Continental scholars: rather than having been transmitted, like nearly all the rest of Archbishop Fulk's extant correspondence, uniquely in the form of excerpts and 'analyses' in Flo- doard's Historia Remensis Ecclesiaes this letter survives as a whole, in English manuscripts and only in those: an addition copied into an eleventh-century Winchester gospel-book, and, copied from that, in the probably fifteenth-century Liber Monasterii de Hyda.4 The letter purports to have accompanied the Frankish To take but two examples: D.

The Jersey Catholic Parish Newsletter Sunday 13 June 2021 - 11Th Sunday of Ordinary Time (Yr B)
The Jersey Catholic Parish Newsletter th Sunday 13 June 2021 - 11 Sunday of Ordinary Time (Yr B) Fr Johnpromise writes … When the novelist Dan Brown released his second novel “The Da Vinci Code”, in April 2003, the world ran amok. People scrambled to get a copy of the novel which promised to have uncovered a stupendous secret which Christianity had kept hidden for years – The Holy Grail. When the dust settled, it became apparent the novel was fictitious and that the greatest kept secret of Christianity does not lie inside a chalice located at the Cathedral of Valencia, but in the person of Jesus Christ Himself. He is the best kept secret of Christianity because He established an eternal kingdom which endures forever – “a kingdom of truth and life, a kingdom of holiness and peace, a kingdom of justice, love, and peace.” It is this kingdom which is the best kept secret of Christianity that we hear of in this Sunday’s readings. While earthly kingdoms will come and go, the kingdom of God which is already here with us but not yet fully realised, will endure forever because Jesus is the kingdom in person as Joseph Ratzinger stated in his book Eschatology of 1988. This kingdom of God which is the best secret of Christianity is even more intriguing because it continues to spread noiselessly like the seed sown in the ground which grows gradually and steadily and like the mustard seed that gives shade to all under it. As Christians, we might sometimes be tempted to zealously enthrone and cement the kingdom of God on earth; however, it is pivotal that we remember the kingdom of God will never be extinguished from the globe; its ambers will always withstand the worst of storms. -
Channel Islands Telegraph Company
A History of the Telegraph in Jersey 1858 – 1940 Graeme Marett MIET This edition July 2009 1 The Telegraph System. Jersey, being only a relatively small outpost of the British Empire, was fortunate in having one of the earliest submarine telegraph systems. Indeed the installation of the first UK-Channel Islands link was made concurrently with the first attempted (but abortive) trans-Atlantic cable in 18581. There was some British Government interest in the installation of such a cable, since the uncertain relationship with the French over the past century had led to the fortification of the Channel Islands as a measure to protect Channel shipping lanes. The islands were substantially fortified and garrisons were maintained well into the early part of the twentieth century. Indeed, the Admiralty had installed an Optical Telegraph between the islands during the Napoleonic wars using a bespoke system developed by Mulgrave2. Optical signalling using a two arm semaphore was carried out between Alderney and Sark and Sark to Jersey and Guernsey. The main islands of Jersey and Guernsey had a network of costal stations. This system was abandoned by the military at the end of the conflict in 1814, but the States of Jersey were loaned the stations and continued to use the system for several years thereafter for commercial shipping. The optical semaphore links between La Moye, Noimont and St Helier continued until a telegraph line was installed in April 1887 between La Moye and St Helier. There is still some evidence of this telegraph network at Telegraph Bay in Alderney, where a fine granite tower is preserved, and the Signalling Point at La Moye, Jersey which survives as a private residence. -
Translation, Canonization, and the Cult of the Saints in England, 1160-1220
TRANSLATION, CANONIZATION, AND THE CULT OF THE SAINTS IN ENGLAND, 1160-1220 Elizabeth Hasseler A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History (Medieval History). Chapel Hill 2014 Approved by: Marcus G. Bull Brett E. Whalen Robert G. Babcock © 2014 Elizabeth Hasseler ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Elizabeth Hasseler: Translation, Canonization, and the Cult of the Saints in England, 1160- 1220 (Under the direction of Marcus G. Bull and Brett E. Whalen) The twelfth century marked a significant change in the way that saints were made. While previously sanctification had been a primarily local phenomenon, overseen by local bishops through the ritual practice of translation, throughout the twelfth century the development of formalized, juridical canonization processes allowed the papacy to oversee the process of making a new saint. This thesis addresses the nature of this shift, arguing that even as canonization proceedings became more common, the ritual of translation still retained significance as an act of local cult building. Focusing on the cults of Edward the Confessor and Thomas Becket, both of whom were canonized by the papacy and subsequently translated by their communities, this study will show that the translation ceremony remained significant through the twelfth century as a moment at which saints were commemorated, their lives narrated, and their remains enshrined within the sacral landscape of the community. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thanks go first of all to my family and friends who have supported me throughout my time in school.
