  • The Military Orders in Wales and the Welsh March in the Middle Ages1
    The Military Orders in Wales and the Welsh March in the Middle Ages In the later medieval centuries the Hospitallers’ estates in Wales were among the most extensive of any religious corporation there. In 1535, just before the dissolution of the monasteries, the commandery at Slebech was the third richest monastic house in Wales, after the Cistercian abbeys at Tintern and Valle Crucis. The next richest house after Slebech was another Cistercian house, Margam Abbey, © Copyrighted Material followed by the Benedictine priory at Abergavenny. by comparison with other Hospitaller houses in England and Wales. In 1338 it received the largest income of any Hospitaller house in England and Wales, apart Chapter 16 from the main house at Clerkenwell just outside London, fourth highest net value of the Hospitallers’ twenty-two houses in England and Wales, after Clerkenwell, Buckland and Ribston. we might expect the Hospitallers to have held great authority and power in Wales, and their Welsh property to have been very significant within the Order.

  • Ovens Murray
    Ovens Murray Infrastructure Victoria is investigating infrastructure investment in regional Victoria that builds on the economic strengths of a region, or that reduces disadvantage, primarily through providing greater access to services and economic opportunities. This fact sheet is focussed on reducing disadvantage, and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying framework for reducing disadvantage through infrastructure. The purpose of this fact sheet is to provide evidence that will inform the problem definition for each of Victoria’s nine regions through consultation with stakeholders. The project has a specific focus on areas that experience relatively high levels of disadvantage (ranked in the bottom 30% of the index of Socio-Economic Disadvantage, SEIFA) and this fact sheet provides indicators showing poor outcomes for key demographic groups living in these areas. Infrastructure Victoria invites key stakeholders and service providers to make submissions that provide evidence on which infrastructure could make a difference in reducing disadvantage for the region.

  • SURREY COUNTY ATHLETIC NEWS (Issue 44 - August 2005)
    SURREY COUNTY ATHLETIC NEWS (Issue 44 - August 2005) 2012 AND ALL THAT With the 2012 Olympic Games being awarded to London the spotlight will be on sport in general over the next seven years. With Athletics being the premier Olympic discipline attention on our sport is likely to be intense. Already some of our athletes, whose performances in recent international championships are featured elsewhere in this edition of SCAN, are beinghighlighted as potential Olympians at the London Games. We have all seen how the media thrives on personalities and, on occasions, this has not been to the benefit of the sportsman or sportswoman concerned. We have to be mindful to protect our Junior athletes who may well not be equipped to handle all the hype that may be thrust upon them. It does not appear that the facilities to be built for the London Olympics will be within our county. Therefore, if we are to benefit from the “legacy” it is unlikely to be in terms of “bricks and mortar” but rather in less tangible items such as profile / awareness which will, we hope, lead to greater support from the community at large. The media has focused on the potential for greater success by British participants in a Games held on home soil. However, if the London Olympics are to provide a catalyst for a higher standard of participation by British athletes then we are more likely to see the improvement in 2016/2020 rather than 2012. It is now seven years before the 2012 Games. At the Athens Olympics Surrey had 6 athletes taking part whose ages in 1997 were 16, 17, 18, 23, 24 & 24 with all(except Joice Maduaka) havingparticipated inSurrey Track and Field Championships bythat time.

  • Address of the Abbot Primate to the Holy Father at the Audience of 8 September 2016
    Address of the Abbot Primate to the Holy Father at the Audience of 8 September 2016 Holy Father, Warm greetings and sincere thanks to you for our joy in welcoming us today, we abbots and conventual priors together with representatives of the Benedictines from throughout the world. We also have with us guests from the Eastern Churches and an Anglican representative who are very close to our hearts. Every four years, the superiors meet in Rome for the Congress of Abbots. Among other things, we discuss the current situation of our monasteries, the formation of young people, continuing education, and the situation of our Athenaeum and College of Sant’Anselmo. We represent 7,000 monks, while our nuns and sisters number 14,000. With regard to the nuns, we thank you for your Apostolic Constitution "Dei Vultum quaerere". The nuns feel very encouraged. We do not live in strong times, but we are not pessimistic. There are some vocations, with the situation changing from culture to culture. We are aware that beyond the celebration of the liturgy, there is need for the revitalization of community life. Therefore, our communities have welcomed heartily your challenge of mercy and are transmitting it during days of study across a broader setting. Our monasteries are involved in a multitude of activities, and I would like to mention only a few events: Due to the needs generated by current migration, quite a number of monasteries especially in Germany and Austria have welcomed refugees within their walls. In our schools, we form 160,000 students. An international commission oversees the Benedictine profile of education.

  • 07 FEB 2020 Shepparton and Wangaratta to Host Climate Change
    PARLIAMENT OF VICTORIA Environment and Planning Standing Committee – Legislative Assembly MEDIA RELEASE Shepparton and Wangaratta to host climate change hearings The parliamentary inquiry into tackling climate change in Victorian communities continues next week with public hearings and site visits in Shepparton and Wangaratta on 12 and 13 February. The Legislative Assembly’s Environment and Planning Committee will meet with local councils, sustainability groups and community organisations to discuss regional responses to climate change and what the government can do to help communities take action. “We know that regional communities are often highly innovative and active when it comes to sustainability, waste management and recycling, agroforestry and renewable energy projects,” said Committee Chair Darren Cheeseman. “We want to hear from members of the Shepparton and Wangaratta communities, learn more about what they’re doing to mitigate climate change and understand how the government can support them,” he said. The Shepparton hearing on 12 February is at the Mooroopna Education and Activity Centre, 23 Alexandra Street, Mooroopna from 10:30 am to 1:15 pm. The Committee will then visit the Violet Town Community Forest and meet with local sustainability groups at the Violet Town Community Complex. The Wangaratta hearing on 13 February is at Wangaratta Regional Study Centre, GoTafe and Charles Sturt University, 218 Tone Road, Wangaratta from 9:30 am to 12:15 pm. A site visit with Totally Renewable Yackandandah to discuss the group’s community energy projects will follow. Appearing before the Committee in Shepparton will be several local councils, the North East Region Sustainability Alliance (NERSA) and Benalla Sustainable Future Group.

  • Sally N. Vaughn, Archbishop Anselm 1093–1109. Bec Missionary
    Mittelalter – Moyen Âge (500–1500) Sally N. Vaughn, Archbishop Anselm 1093–1109. Bec Missionary, Canterbury Primate, Patriarch of Another World, Aldershot, Hampshire (Ashgate Publishing) 2012, XXI–287 p. (The Archbishops of Canterbury Series), ISBN 978-1-4094-0121-6, GBP 55,00. rezensiert von/compte rendu rédigé par Brian Patrick McGuire, Kalundborg The Archbishops of Canterbury series promises »authoritative studies« on these men (and hopefully one day women), and Sally Vaughn’s work on Anselm certainly presents this archbishop in a full and convincing manner. This book is the work of a mature scholar who has had time to review a lifetime of reading and thinking about Anselm. In 166 pages of text and under a hundred pages of documents, thankfully in both Latin and English, Vaughn provides what must be the most complete and succinct introduction to Anselm now available. Back in the early 1970s I remember telling R. W. Southern that he had to take into consideration the challenge of Sally Vaughn in seeing Anselm as a politically adept player in the power politics of England. Southern’s view in his 1963 biography, »Saint Anselm and his Biographer«, was that the man was not really interested in such influence, for he wanted to withdraw into conversations with God. In his 1990 revised study, »Saint Anselm. A Portrait in a Landscape«, Southern took into consideration Vaughn’s view of Anselm. He did not entirely agree with her, but he had enjoyed fruitful contacts with her in discussing their common archbishop, and certainly he modified his interpretation and provided a more politically-aware Anselm.

Fabio Zaganelli The show is called “Lost in the Middle Ages”. Here Fabio acts as Fabius the Court Jester and beloved fool of the people.
