Other installments of the life-giving, expand­ ing work of the Spirit of God in transforming human lives and society, from one generation to another, have been put into thou­ sands of books which are now found in the libraries of the world. And, with all of this, only a fragment of the marvelous story of Christ and His church has been recorded. This book, the first history of the Allegheny Conference, Church of the United Brethren in Christ, continues the report of Christ's sav­ ing and building work in portions of Pennsylvania. It is a record of some of the sacrifices, joys and achievements of the pastors and mem­ bers of the Allegheny Conference during the ninety-two years, from 1839 to 1931.

  • Casamance, 1885-2014
    MAPPING A NATION: SPACE, PLACE AND CULTURE IN THE CASAMANCE, 1885-2014 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Mark William Deets August 2017 © 2017 Mark William Deets MAPPING A NATION: SPACE, PLACE AND CULTURE IN THE CASAMANCE, 1885-2014 Mark William Deets Cornell University This dissertation examines the interplay between impersonal, supposedly objective “space” and personal, familiar “place” in Senegal’s southern Casamance region since the start of the colonial era to determine the ways separatists tried to ascribe Casamançais identity to five social spaces as spatial icons of the nation. I devote a chapter to each of these five spaces, crucial to the separatist identity leading to the 1982 start of the Casamance conflict. Separatists tried to “discursively map” the nation in opposition to Senegal through these spatial icons, but ordinary Casamançais refused to imagine the Casamance in the same way as the separatists. While some corroborated the separatist imagining through these spaces, others contested or ignored it, revealing a second layer of counter-mapping apart from that of the separatists. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Mark W. Deets is a retired Marine aviator and a PhD candidate in African History at Cornell University. Deets began his doctoral studies after retiring from the Marine Corps in 2010. Before his military retirement, Deets taught History at the U.S. Naval Academy. Previous assignments include postings as the U.S. Defense and Marine Attaché to Senegal, The Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde, and Mauritania (2005-2007), as a White House Helicopter Aircraft Commander (HAC) and UH-1N “Huey” Operational Test Director with Marine Helicopter Squadron One (1999-2002), and as Assistant Operations Officer and UH-1N Weapons and Tactics Instructor with the “Stingers” of Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 267 (1993-1998).

Are you done yet?” I’m thankful for friends, such as: Adam Suarez, Phillip Sitter, Brandon Roney, Robert Gayden and Zach Folken, who would periodically ask me “What’s your thesis about again?” That was a question that would unintentionally put me back on track.

  • Sinéad O'connor – Biografía
    Sinéad O'Connor – Biografía Sinéad O'Connor nació en Glenageary en el Condado de Dublín, es la tercera de cinco hijos. Sus padres se casaron jóvenes y tuvieron una relación conflictiva, separándose cuando Sinead tenía ocho años. En 1979, O'Connor dejó a su madre y se fue a vivir con su padre y su nueva esposa. Sin embargo, a la edad de 15 años, su afición al hurto y el ausentismo escolar le llevaron a ser internada en un Asilo de la Magdalena, el Centro de Formación Grianán dirigido por las Hermanas de Nuestra Señora de la Caridad. En cierto modo ella prosperó durante su estancia, especialmente en el desarrollo de la escritura y la música, pero le irritaba la conformidad impuesta. En 1983, su padre la envió a Newtown School, una exclusiva escuela internado en Waterford, una institución con una atmósfera mucho más permisiva que Grianan. Con la ayuda y apoyo de su profesor de lengua irlandesa grabó una demo de cuatro canciones, con dos versiones y dos de sus propias canciones que más tarde aparecieron en su primer álbum. Junto con Colm Farrelly formó un grupo llamado Ton Ton Macoute. La banda se trasladó a Waterford y O'Connor estaba en Newtown, pero pronto abandonó la escuela y los siguió a Dublín. Su sonido se inspiró en el interés de Farrelly por las músicas del mundo, aunque la mayoría de sus seguidores percibió en la voz de O'Connor y su presencia en el escenario los rasgos más característicos de la banda. El 10 de febrero de 1985, la madre de O'Connor murió en un accidente de coche que, a pesar de su tensa relación, fue un duro golpe para la cantante.
