He served in a variety of capacities within the Diocese, including assistant pastor at St. Sebastian Church in Middletown and religion teacher at various high schools. He was also campus chaplain at Wesleyan University, Connecticut College, and Eastern Connecticut State University and Instructor of Canon Law at Holy Apostles Seminary. In 1982, Loverde received a Licentiate of Canon Law (J.C.L.) from the Catholic University of America in Washington, DC.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Auxiliary Bishop of Hartford, Connecticut.

paragraph: In 1988, Pope John Paul II named Loverde Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Hartford and Titular Bishop of Octavia. He was consecrated on April 12, 1988 by Archbishop John F. Whealon at the Cathedral of St. Joseph. He chose his episcopal motto, "Encourage and Teach with Patience," () from Second Epistle of St. Paul to Timothy, expressing his belief that, as Bishop, it is "his duty and calling by God to encourage and teach the faith to those who need it, with the gentle patience that each of God's children may need."

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Bishop of Ogdensburg, New York.

paragraph: Pope John Paul II appointed Bishop Loverde eleventh Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Ogdensburg, New York in 1993, and he was installed at the Cathedral of St. Mary on January 17, 1994.

From 1997–1999, he was State Chaplain of the New York Knights of Columbus.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Bishop of Arlington, Virginia.

paragraph: After the sudden death in Rome of Bishop John Keating in March 1998, from heart attack during his "ad limina" visit, Pope John Paul II appointed Loverde the third Bishop of the Diocese of Arlington, where he was installed on March 25, 1999, at the Cathedral of St. Thomas More. Since coming to Arlington he reinstated the permanent diaconate program, and allowed seminarians to study at Blessed John XXIII National Seminary, Pontifical College Josephinum, and The Catholic University of America. He also has been supportive of religious orders coming into the Diocese, such as the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist and Cloistered Dominicans.

In 2012, a Doctor of Humane Letters was conferred upon him by the Institute for the Psychological Sciences.

paragraph: Pope Francis accepted Loverde's retirement on October 4, 2016 and appointed Michael F. Burbidge as his successor.

paragraph: Section::::Altar girls.

paragraph: In 2006 Loverde permitted, at the discretion of the local pastor, female altar servers in parishes and high school communities in the diocese for the first time. Prior to this, Arlington was one of two dioceses in the United States to retain the traditional practice of allowing boys only to serve at the altar in local parishes. Loverde had sent a "dubium" about the altar girl matter to the Holy See's Congregation for Divine Worship and Discipline of the Sacraments. The congregation responded that while bishops may allow female laity to serve at the altar, pastors and priests cannot be compelled to use them.

paragraph: Alexander Amfiteatrov

paragraph: Alexander Valentinovich Amfiteatrov (Amphiteatrof) (); (December 26, 1862 – February 26, 1938) was a Russian writer, novelist, and historian.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Born a priest's son in Kaluga, he was trained as a lawyer but became a journalist and popular novelist. In 1902 he was exiled for writing a satirical article on the imperial family. He returned to visit the front during the Russo-Japanese War, then returned to Western Europe, living in France and Italy.

paragraph: Amfiteatrov conceived writing a book on Nero and early Christianity in the 1890s. An Italian exile provided him with plenty of sources and evidence, and exposed him to leading European scholars, and in 1913 he completed "Nero: The Beast out of the Bottomless Pit" ("Зверь из бездны. Нерон", referring to Book of Revelation 11:7), a life story of Emperor Nero that evolved into a comprehensive encyclopedia of Rome at the end of Julio-Claudian dynasty and a critical review of contemporary historical concepts. By 1913 Amfiteatrov's eyesight was failing to the point where he could not proofread and edit typographic print, relying more on his memory than on reading, thus the first edition was released with major errors and continuity gaps. His second Roman study "Arch of Titus", dedicated to early Christianity in Rome, was not completed.

paragraph: In Italy he completed his most successful novels "Vosmidesyatniki" (The 80s-Niks) (1907–08) and "Devyatidesyatniki" (The 90s-Niks) (1911–13), dealing with the intelligentsia of the 1880s and 1890s, respectively. "Versatile and topical, but smartly superficial, Amfiteatrov catered for the general reader whose taste he knew to perfection" ("Cassell's Encyclopaedia of World Literature", ed. S.H. Steinberg, p. 1680).

paragraph: In 1916 Amfiteatrov returned to Russia and became editor of the nationalist newspaper "Russkaya volya". Because of his attacks on the government he was sent into exile in Irkutsk at the beginning of 1917, but after the February Revolution he returned to Petrograd, where he edited a Cossack newspaper and wrote articles attacking the Bolsheviks until the latter ended freedom of the press, whereupon he became a teacher and translator. He left Russia with his family in August 1921. Until the spring of 1922 he lived in Prague, then settled in Italy, where he wrote for many émigré journals.

paragraph: Amfiteatrov died in Levanto Italy in 1938. His sons were Vladimir Amfiteatrov-Kadashev, a writer and journalist (and friend of Nabokov); Daniele Amfitheatrof, a composer; and the musicians Maksim Amfiteatrov and Roman Amfiteatrov.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: His first drawing lessons were with , an Austrian painter living in Kraków. He then studied painting in Warsaw with Franciszek Smuglewicz.

During that time, he concentrated on painting portraits; mostly of military heroes, wealthy businessmen and their families and figures of the Polish Enlightenment. He also did some historical scenes, which show the influence of Smuglewicz, and some scenes from Classical mythology.

paragraph: Enguerrand III de Boves, Lord of Coucy (c.1182–1242) was the eldest son and successor of Ralph I, Lord of Coucy (c. 1134 – 1191) and Alix de Dreux. He succeeded as Lord of Coucy ("sieur de Couci") in 1191, and held it until his death; he was also lord of Marle and Boves.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Enguerrand III was born in Marle, Picardy, France. He became one of the most ambitious and powerful of all the French nobles, called by one historian "the greatest baron in all Picardy", and earning himself his epithet, "Enguerrand le Grand", or Enguerrand "the Great".

paragraph: Enguerrand had an illustrious military career, helping King Philip II of France reduce the French territories of the King of England. Enguerrand campaigned in Anjou in 1205, and in 1214, fought in the French victory over an Anglo-German alliance at the Battle of Bouvines. His arms at Bouvines were blazoned: "Barry of six vair and gules." He was a notable member of the French force which invaded the Kingdom of England (1216–1217) to depose King John. He also participated in the Albigensian Crusade.

paragraph: After the death of King Louis VIII of France, Enguerrand was chief among the nobles who resisted the regency of Blanche of Castile for her son Louis IX of France, although he eventually returned to the royal favour. Enguerrand made his mark on the Picardy landscape by constructing Coucy Castle.

paragraph: Enguerrand is said by tradition to have started the famous rhyme associated with his successors:

paragraph: Section::::Relations.

paragraph: Through his mother Alix de Dreux, Enguerrand III was related to King Louis IX of France. Enguerrand also married into the family of King Henry III of England, taking as his second wife the latter king's cousin, who was the granddaughter of King Henry II of England. He married three times.

paragraph: His first wife was Beatrice de Vignory, widow of John I, Count of Roucy (1196–1200). They married in 1201. There are no known children from this marriage.

paragraph: His second wife was Matilda (or Richenza) of Bavaria (1172–1209), a daughter of Henry the Lion, Duke of Bavaria and Saxony, by his second wife, Matilda of England, daughter of King Henry II. Matilda of Bavaria was thus also the niece of King Richard the Lion-hearted. This marriage took place in 1204. There are no known children from this marriage.

paragraph: His third wife was Marie de Montmirail (), daughter of Jean de Montmirail, Lord of Condé . At the end of the 12th century, Enguerrand built the original Château de Condé in Condé, Picardy, constructed as a "keep" which had 2 meters thick walls and towering chimneys.

paragraph: LaTour

paragraph: William "Bill" LaTour, better known by his stage names LaTour and Bud LaTour, is an American musician, disc jockey and voice over artist. His musical genres span electronic, house, glam, rock, dance, punk, and parody. LaTour is best known for the 1991 Number 1 "Billboard" electronic dance hit "People Are Still Having Sex." and for his instrumental deep house track "Blue."

paragraph: Section::::Musical career.

paragraph: As a child, LaTour found a talent in writing parody songs. Later, working at a radio station created the environment to record comedy songs and feature them on the air for skits. Like many parody songwriters, "The Dr. Demento Radio Show" played a large part in showcasing the early talents of LaTour. A parody version of Falco's "Rock Me Amadeus" entitled, "Rock Me Jerry Lewis" was credited to Bud Latour and fellow Phoenix, Arizona disc jockey, Mike Elliott. "Rock Me Jerry Lewis" reached Number 1 on The Dr. Demento's Funny Five chart.

paragraph: LaTour was a member of Chicago punk band The Squids, formed in Chicago in 1989. He remained a member of the group until 1991, and played his final show with them at the Chicago Metro. Upon leaving the band, he began producing house music, signed with Smash Records and released his first eponymous LaTour album in 1991. "People Are Still Having Sex" reached number one on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart, and became a "Billboard" Hot 100 Top 40 hit (number 35). The song reached number 15 in the UK Singles Chart after he performed on "Top of The Pops". "Blue" was featured during the club scene in the film "Basic Instinct", and appears on the film's soundtrack release. He released a second album, "Home on the Range", in 1993, and had other hits on the U.S. Hot Dance chart, including the songs "Cold," "Hypnomania," "Craziaskowboi," and "E."

paragraph: During the busiest phase of LaTour's recording career, the 1990s, he joined fellow house music producer, Terry "Housemaster" Baldwin to create a number of Chicago House singles for the underground house scene under the name "The L&B Project". This was named for the letters of both artist's last names.

paragraph: In 1997, LaTour formed another band, Muzloh. The rest of the band included Chicago musicians Dave Hunt on drums, Don Batryn on lead guitar, and Pete Shorner on bass. Emery "Joe" Yost also played guitar and bass on the Muzloh CD. In the Chicago area, Muzloh played The House of Blues, The Metro Chicago club, Gunther Murphy's, and The Chicago Free Fest. Muzloh released an album in 1997 titled "Supersonic Gold" on Spoon Records.

paragraph: LaTour also performed as a studio musician for many House music record labels in Chicago during the '90s and musicians including Ralphie Rosario, White Knight, Terry Baldwin, Frankie Hollywood Rodriguez, DJ International Records, SOS Records, Underground Construction Records, and Trax Records.

paragraph: Section::::Radio career.

paragraph: LaTour's radio work began at an early age, spending many hours at Trevor Browne High School's high school radio station in Phoenix, Arizona. The station was broadcast into the school's lunchroom and quad area. During those high school years, at the age of 16, LaTour became licensed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and secured a job at KUPD 97.9 in Phoenix. He joined as their weekend on-air personality from 1979–1983 and would begin to hone his skills as a voice over actor, parody music songwriter, and musician.

paragraph: In 1983–1986, LaTour joined KZZP as their weekend on-air personality on the FM station and did the midday shift on their AM frequency. It was at this station that on-air personality, Chris Shebel coined him William "Bud" LaTour.

paragraph: After leaving KZZP, LaTour, now known primarily as "Bud" LaTour went on to Mesa, Arizona's KDKB as their morning show personality while also the station's Production Director. Only there for the year, LaTour moved to Phoenix's KSLX as the evening personality and then joined Chicago's WRXR. Climbing the ranks of radio, LaTour secured a position at a larger station, WBBM-FM also known as B96 as their weekend personality and Production Director from 1987–1992.

paragraph: From 1998–1999, LaTour joined WXXY as their evening personality using the name Bill LaTour. He later moved to one of Chicago's only dance-format radio station, WKIE otherwise known as Energy 92.7. The station released two full-length music CD's due to their popular format. He was their Production Director and midday personality, where he went only by the name LaTour.

paragraph: When the station changed formats, LaTour joined Chicago's CBS Radio station WJMK, otherwise known as Jack FM, and continued as their Production Director. In the middle of 2009, Witchblade writer Christina Z. contacted LaTour and encouraged him to act on a lifelong goal to work in the Los Angeles radio market. He resigned from WJMK and moved to Los Angeles in June 2009 to pursue radio and voice acting while still handling voice over spots for WJMK. He is heard in Chicago daily.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Godfrey was the third son of Henry III, Duke of Brabant and Adelaide of Burgundy, Duchess of Brabant. He was an able warrior and politician and supported his elder brother John I, Duke of Brabant in all his undertakings. He fought alongside his brother in the Battle of Worringen in 1288, where he captured Reginald I, Count of Guelders.

paragraph: On October 29, 1284, his father made him Lord of Aarschot. This reestablished a dynasty that had been broken in 1172 when Godfried III, Count of Aarschot, sold his county and, as a result, his heritage, to Godfrey's great-grandfather Godfrey III, Count of Louvain. The transaction was for an unknown amount of money and an equally unknown reason.

paragraph: In 1292, he negotiated a peace between France and the Count of Flanders. After the death of his brother, he supported his nephew John II of Brabant against all internal and external opposition.

paragraph: In 1302, when Flanders revolted against King Philip IV of France, Godfrey and his only son joined the army of his French ally in the Battle of the Golden Spurs. Both were killed, as were many more knights of Brabant. His estates were divided among his four married daughters.

paragraph: On becoming prime minister, he persuaded the Shah to grant a concession for railroad construction—the Reuter concession—and other commercial development projects to Baron de Reuter. Opposition from bureaucratic factions and clerical leaders, however, forced the Shah to dismiss his prime minister and cancel the concession.

paragraph: Titus Aurelius Fulvus

paragraph: In the 1st century, there were two men with the name Titus Aurelius Fulvus. One was the paternal grandfather and the other the father to the Roman Emperor Antoninus Pius.

paragraph: Section::::Titus Aurelius Fulvus the elder.

paragraph: The elder Titus Aurelius Fulvus was a supporter of Vespasian during the Year of Four Emperors. A provincial from Nemausus, Gaul (modern Nîmes, France), he gained his military experience as legatus or commander of the Legio III Gallica in the East under Corbulo. When the legion was transferred to Moesia, in February 69, he led them to victory over 9,000 Rhoxolani horsemen on the Roman side of the Danube.

paragraph: It was while legatus of Legio III that he convinced the Illyrian armies to support Vespasian; as a reward, Fulvus was summoned to Vespasian's side in Alexandria during the critical period between Vitellius' death in December 69 and the emperor's departure for Rome in August of September of the following year. Further honors included a suffect consulship early in Vespasian's reign (between 72 and 74, the year is uncertain), and elevation to the patrician class.

paragraph: As an "amicus" of Vespasian and his sons, Fulvus held a number of senior posts, but only three are attested: governorship of Hispania Citerior, a second consulship in 85 (ordinary, as colleague of Domitian), and urban prefect. Noting that Fulvus was part of the "Hispano-Narbonensian nexus" that emerged in the later first century AD, Brian W. Jones observes that Fulvus, as a "senior consular of wide experience, he would have been an invaluable member of Domitian's court".

paragraph: Section::::Titus Aurelius Fulvus the younger.

paragraph: The younger Titus Aurelius Fulvus was consul in 89. This Fulvus has been described by Augustan History as a "stern and upright man". The younger Fulvus married Arria Fadilla, a daughter of the consul Gnaeus Arrius Antoninus and friend to the historian Pliny the Younger.

paragraph: Their only child was Titus Aurelius Fulvus Boionius Arrius Antoninus Pius, who was born in Lanuvium (modern Lanuvio, Italy) on 19 September 86; who was raised by Fulivus' father-in-law after his early death. This son became the emperor Antoninus Pius.

paragraph: Joseph Proctor

paragraph: Joseph Proctor (May 7, 1816 – October 2, 1897) was a popular 19th century American actor. He was best known for playing the lead role in the melodrama "Nick of the Woods".

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Proctor was born in Marlborough, Massachusetts in 1816 to Nicholson and Lucy (Bond) Proctor. He first appeared on stage in Boston in November 1833 playing Damon in John Banim's "Damon and Pythias". By 1837 he was playing lead roles in Philadelphia. Commencing on May 6, 1839 at the Bowery Theatre in New York, he took the lead role of Nathan Slaughter (and Jibbenainosay) in "Nick of the Woods" (Proctor actually played six roles in the play, which was usually an advertised feature of his performances.) Though he played many other roles in his career, this was the "play with which his name was so continuously associated as to create the impression that he never acted any other characters of consequence." He performed the role over 2,500 times.

paragraph: Proctor performed throughout the United States and did some theater management. He went to Europe to perform from 1859-61. He retired from the stage in the 1880s, except for occasional benefit appearances.

paragraph: Section::::Personal.

paragraph: Proctor first married Hester Warren (1810–41) in 1837, one of the daughters of actor William Warren (1767-1832). Their daughter Anna E. Proctor also went on stage. In 1851 he married Elizabeth Wakeman. Their daughter Anna E. Proctor also went on stage later. Proctor died in Boston on October 2, 1897.

paragraph: John Cardmaker

paragraph: John Cardmaker (alias Taylor) ( 1496–1555) was an English Protestant martyr.

paragraph: Section::::Franciscan and preacher.

paragraph: He was originally an Observant friar, who, after the dissolution of his order under the persecution which Henry VIII specially directed against it, lapsed into the world, and became a married minister. His name is found in the list of licensed preachers of Edward VI He was vicar of St. Bridget's in Fleet Street, and one of the readers or lecturers at St. Paul's, where he read three times a week. Some of his sayings against Bishops Stephen Gardiner and Edmund Bonner, and concerning the sacrament, are preserved, On Somerset's first fall, when a religious reaction was vainly expected, he spoke strongly in his lecture against the victorious faction of Warwick. ‘Cardmaker said in his lecture that, though he had a fall, he was not undone, and that men should not have their purposes; and also he said that men would have set up again their popish mass'. Soon after this he was made prebendary and chancellor of Wells, where he ejected a schoolmaster, preached and lectured often, and shared the troubles of the new appointed dean, William Turner

paragraph: Section::::Reign of Mary I.

paragraph: When the persecution broke out under Mary, Cardmaker and his bishop, William Barlow of Bath and Walls, came to London disguised as merchants, and vainly attempted to escape over sea, November 1554. They were cast into the Fleet Prison, where they lay till January, when the chancellor Gardiner, and others in commission, began to have the accumulated prisoners for religion, who amounted to about eighty, brought before them at St. Mary’s Overy. Barlow submitted and escaped. Cardmaker, who was examined on the same day (28 January) as John Hooper and Edward Crome, was understood also to have recanted, and was remanded to the Compter in Bread Street, with the prospect of speedy deliverance. But his compliances were only, as he himself said, ‘by a policy'. He was reanimated, it was thought, in his new prison by the zeal of Laurence Saunders, his fellow-captive, and a second inquiry was made into his opinions. He was brought before Bonner on 26 May 1555, examined in several articles, cast for heresy, and committed to Newgate Prison, whence he was carried to Smithfield on 30 May and burnt alive in the company of one Warne, an upholsterer.

paragraph: Heinrich von Louffenburg

paragraph: Heinrich von Louffenburg (1391–1460) was a Swabian priest born at Louffenburg on the Rhein, Germany.

paragraph: He is best known for his treatise, "Versehung des Leibs" (Care of the Body), written in 1429. It was published in 1491 as one of four great medical treatises in "Pediatric Incunabula", the first known text to be devoted to the normal physiology and common illnesses of children. Louffenburg wrote his treatise in Swabian, his native tongue, instead of the traditional Latin. It is a poem meant to be chanted, as that is how works were often written to aid memorization and the spread of information among those who were not able to read and write.

paragraph: Later in life, Louffenburg was a dean of St. Mauritius in Zofingen. In 1445, he entered the Benedictine monastery Saint John Abbey in Müstair, Switzerland. He spent his later years translating church poems from Latin into Swabian. He died on 31 March 1460 at the Abbey.

paragraph: Edward Theodore Compton

paragraph: Edward Theodore Compton, usually referred to as E. T. Compton, (29 July 1849 – 22 March 1921) was an English-born, German artist, illustrator and mountain climber. He is well known for his paintings and drawings of alpine scenery, and as a mountaineer made 300 major ascents including no fewer than 27 first ascents.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Compton was born in Stoke Newington in London, the son of Theodore Compton, an art-loving insurance agent, and grew up in a deeply religious Quaker household. He attended various art schools, including, for a time, the Royal Academy in London, but otherwise he was mainly self-taught in art.

paragraph: In 1867, wanting the best education for their artistically-talented son, and due to the high cost of schooling in England, the family decided to emigrate to Germany settling in Darmstadt. The city at that time was the seat of the Grand Duchy of Hesse under Grand Duke Ludwig III, and a community of artists had sprung up there. Entries in Compton's diary show that both he and his father were art teachers - Alice, the Princess of Hesse numbered amongst Edward's students.

paragraph: Between 1867-68 Compton toured the Rhineland, Mosel and Eifel areas of Germany, making numerous sketches. In July 1868, the entire Compton family traveled to the Bernese Oberland, the alpine scenery encountered during this trip, particularly the view of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau peaks, inspiring Edward to become a mountain painter.

paragraph: In 1869, Compton was living in Munich and two years later for the first time exhibited his work at the Glass Palace.

paragraph: In 1872 he married Auguste Plotz and for two years they travelled through the Tyrol, Carinthia, Italy and Switzerland. From 1874, the couple settled in Feldafing on Lake Starnberg, building a comfortable house there called Villa Compton.

paragraph: In the following years, Compton travelled to the mountains of Austria, Scandinavia, North Africa, Corsica and Spain recording his impressions in a variety of oil and watercolors paintings and ink drawings. Although alpine scenes predominated, Compton also visited and drew other areas such as the High Tatras in eastern Europe, the Scottish Highlands, the Hebrides, the Lofoten Islands and Northern Cape in Norway, and the Colombian Andes.

paragraph: In 1880 Compton became a member of the Royal Academy, London. Besides his work as a painter he also became well known as a book illustrator for the German and Austrian Alpine Association (DAV) with titles such as "In the high mountains" by Emil Zsigmondy (1889), "About Fels and Firn" by H. Hess (1901) and "Mountaineering in Pictures" by Alfred Steinitzer (1913). In England he was also in demand as an illustrator providing pictures for a range of titles (see below).

paragraph: In 1909 Compton accompanied his friend, the mountaineer Karl Blodig on many tours in the Silvretta mountains. At the time of the First World War he was invited by the Austrian army to paint from the mountain front but was forbidden to do so by the Bavarian High Command. He was also excluded from the Munich Artists' Association, because he was English.

paragraph: Apart from his art, Compton was also an excellent climber, highly regarded by Blodig for his "brilliant mountaineering skill on ice and rock, his truly admirable perseverance, his inexhaustible patience in bearing hardships". He was a member of the exclusive Alpine Club and the German and Austrian Alpine Association (DAV).

paragraph: Amongst his notable ascents were: Torre di Brenta first climbed in 1882; Cima Brenta, first climbed by the south wall in 1882; Odle} (Large Fermeda); Aiguille Blanche de Peuterey (ascent in 1905 with Karl Blodig); Grossglockner, climbed at the age of 70!

paragraph: Section::::Art and influence.

paragraph: Initially painting in the English romantic tradition, Compton later developed a more realistic representation of nature, being guided by his true artistic ideas while retaining topographical accuracy. Even his early watercolors show the great importance of brightness and light and his work is also remarkable for its portrayal of the elements such as water and air, including ascending mist and fog. He can be regarded as an impressionist.

paragraph: Although Compton never had much formal art education and did not found a school, he influenced artists such as and as well as his son Edward Harrison Compton and daughter Dora Compton.
