School of Excellence: During October OCTOBER FEASTS John XXIII, John Paul II added to general Roman calendar Vol.The XLX, No. 11 DIOCESE OF SPRINGFIELD—CAPEMirror GIRARDEAU, MISSOURI September 19, 2014 Vatican City he Congregation for Di- vine Worship has added St. John XXIII and St. John Paul II to the universal cal- Tendar of the modern Roman rite, with both their feasts observed School of Excellence: during October. According to the Sept. 11 issue of the Vatican weekly Notre Dame Regional High School L’Osservatore Romano, the decree naming the new feast days for the saints was issued by the Congre- gation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments following requests to do so from around the world. While the feasts of both late popes had already been avail- able to some dioceses since they had been beatified, every diocese throughout the world is now free to commemorate these popes li- turgically. Both are given the rank of optional memorial, meaning they may be celebrated, but they do not have to be.

  • Copy of EPQ: Formal Essay
    How Queer Identities Have Progressed Within the Music Industry History of queer identity within the music industry The recent trend towards more visibility in the music industry is enigmatic of a larger trend as the pride movement gained momentum. The Stonewall Riots of 1969 marked a turning point in queer identity, demanding rights and protection against police brutality - paticularly towards gay men and trans women of colour. The Stonewall Riots launched queer identity into the public mainstream, and for the first time queer idenity was not only legalised in the UK but also visible. This started in the rock scene of the 1970s, a genre characterised by it’s defiance of the mainstream. Naturally in such a unbashidely indivalidsitic environment like rock, queer idenity flourished, although still when it reached mainstream it had to be censored behind metaphors and slights of hand. The most famous example of rock’s queer sexuality was Queen, fronted by queer icon Freddie Mercury, although the full extent of his queer idenitity within his music is often debated. One popular interpretation of Bohemian Rhapsody, Queen’s three part rock ballad, is that it’s a song about a gay or queer man coming out, being rejected, and then coming into his own – not proud in spite of their sexuality, but because of it. As comedian Guy Branum wrote in his memoir My Life As a Goddess, later posted to pitchfork in 2018, “Bohemian Rhapsody is a breakup song for your mum,”1 in an article when he links his own fraught coming out with his parents to the murder depicted in the song.

  • PRESS RELEASE for Immediate Release
    www.accartbooks.com PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release Queer London – A Guide to the City’s LGBTQ+ Past and Present Queer London – A Guide to the City’s LGBTQ+ Past and Present by journalist and writer Alim Kheraj with photographs by Tim Boddy takes a tour through London’s vibrant and colourful LGBTQ+ scene and queer culture. Divided into different sections, the book explores various elements of the city’s LGBTQ+ life, encompassing its history, geography and landmarks while also celebrating the strength and fortitude of the people, both past and present, who claimed these spaces as their own in an ever-changing landscape. Alongside the capital’s numerous nightspots, its Pride events, shops, charities, community organisations, saunas and sex shops are all presented across the book’s 176 pages. Kheraj’s tour kicks off in Central London where well-established clubs and events such as G-A-Y, Heaven and Sink The Pink feature alongside newcomers like Circa The Club on Victoria Embankment. Legendary pubs range from the City of Quebec, allegedly London’s oldest LGBTQ+ venue; to Soho’s The Admiral Duncan, where the writer recounts its tragic bombing at the start of the Bank Holiday weekend in 1999. A section on the Potted History of Soho explores the area’s place in queer activity stretching back to the start of the 17th century. Elsewhere, Queer London explores other must-visit pubs, clubs and destinations across the capital, including North London’s The Underground Club, touted as the capital’s longest running Men Only club; Dalston Superstore in the East, “a liberated, hedonistic and decadent nightlife spot”; the changing fortunes of Earl’s Court’s Gay Village; and Vauxhall’s The Royal Tavern, arguably London’s most beloved LGBTQ+ venue.

Make it clear that you are open to discussing them, that it’s not taboo and that diversity of gender identities and sexual orientation is a reality. Even if the child doesn’t seem engaged, it sends a clear signal that you are open to talking about LGBT+ equality. Use books, films and TV shows Books, films and TV shows have the power to challenge our preconceptions, change our worldviews and empathise with people whose lived experience is totally different to ours. There are plenty of fantastic resources for all ages that represent a range of identities, make sure to encourage your child to read or watch things that center a range of experiences. There are also some interesting tasks you can set to make this learning more active and engaging. Here are a few ideas: • Write a diary entry from a character's perspective.

  • Review: Palo Santo – Years & Years | Nouse
    Nouse Web Archives Review: Palo Santo – Years %26 Years Page 1 of 3 News Comment MUSE. Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Muse › Music › News Features Reviews Playlists Review: Palo Santo – Years & Years Years and Years have made their long-awaited return with a record that’s more honest and more bold than ever before, writes Andy Tallon Thursday 12 July 2018 PHOTO: Album artwork 9/10 “Black night, the wheel turns. All citizens return to me. Welcome to my sanctuary: welcome to Palo Santo.” Back in April, Years & Years dropped the trailer for their long-awaited sophomore album, narrated by none other than Judi Dench (!!!), cast as a mysterious overlord of the dystopian future that Years & Years have imagined. ‘Palo Santo’ is Spanish for ‘holy wood’, and is burned to cleanse oneself – and that’s certainly something Years & Years needed. Since their hugely successful debut Communion, the band has been fraught with creative disagreement, and it’s something of a miracle that we even got a second album at all. And thank the Holy Trinity, Palo Santo was more than worth the wait. It’s stacked with the euphoric dance-pop tunes we’d come to expect from their debut, but they’ve also dabbled in noughties R&B and even include a near-acapella album closer. That’s not to say that every risk taken on the record fully pays off. Acapella album closer ‘Here’ is enjoyably bold, but proves a little laboured. ‘Preacher’ sees lead singer Olly Alexander coo to his lover to “come on out”, and takes aim at the oppressive clutches of religion.
