paragraph: Lord Dudley Stuart

paragraph: Lord Dudley Coutts Stuart (11 January 1803, London – 17 November 1854, Stockholm) was a British politician. He was the youngest son of John Stuart, 1st Marquess of Bute, and his second wife, Frances Coutts, daughter of the banker Thomas Coutts.

paragraph: In 1820, he was admitted to Christ Church, Oxford.

paragraph: On 20 July 1824, he married Princess Christine Bonaparte (1798–1847), daughter of Lucien Bonaparte by his first wife, Christine Boyer, and sister of the Princess Gabrielli. They had one son, Paul Amadeus Francis Coutts Stuart, who died unmarried in 1889.

paragraph: He was a member of the Whittington Club and the vice-president (and later the president) of the Literary Association of the Friends of Poland.

paragraph: A Whig and subsequently Liberal, he was a passionate advocate of Polish independence, and sympathetic in general to the cause of the Eastern European peoples against Russia. He received Lajos Kossuth in England after his exile from Hungary. In the election of 1857, Richard Cobden told an anecdote referring to this event:

paragraph: I will tell you what happend with my knowledge -- it is no breach of confidence to say it. When that illustrious Hungarian was expected in England, after his imprisonment in Turkey, my lamented friend Lord Dudley Stuart -- whose devotion to the cause of these foreign refugees was as unbounded as it was sincere - went down to Southampton to meet Kossuth, and receive him on his arrival. Having to wait a day or two there, and being in the neighbourhood of Broadlands, where Lord Palmerston lives, he went there and saw the noble lord, and received from him a request to bring Kossuth over to Broadlands, to see him. I remember receiveing a letter from Lord Dudley Stuart, announcing to me this piece of intelligence with the greatest glee. He was delighted at the opportunity of taking Kossuth over to the Lord Palmerston; and as soon as he arrived he announced to him the pleasing information. To his astonishment he found Kossuth would not accept it. He would not go near Lord Palmerston -- (cheers); and I have got a letter from Lord Dudley Stuart, asking me to use all my influence with Kossuth to induce him to go and call upon Lord Palmerston. He would not do it; and my answer was this, "You may depend upon it, Kossuth knows a great deal more about Lord Palmerston than you do." (Laughter).

paragraph: A critic of the Metropolitan Police, he suggested a reduction of the strength of the force in 1853.

paragraph: Stephen Holden Doane

paragraph: Stephen Holden Doane (October 13, 1947 – March 25, 1969) was a United States Army officer and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration—the Medal of Honor—for his actions in the Vietnam War.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Doane attended and graduated from Tilton School in 1966. Doane joined the Army from Albany, New York in 1967, and went through Officer Candidate School at Fort Benning. By March 25, 1969, he was serving as a first lieutenant in Company B, 1st Battalion, 5th Infantry Regiment, 25th Infantry Division. During a firefight on that day, in Hau Nghia Province, Republic of Vietnam, Doane destroyed an enemy bunker by carrying an activated hand grenade into it, sacrificing himself to take out the hostile position.

paragraph: Doane, aged 21 at his death, was buried in Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington County, Virginia.

paragraph: Section::::Medal of Honor citation.

paragraph: First Lieutenant Doane's official Medal of Honor citation reads:

paragraph: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty. First Lt. Doane was serving as a platoon leader when his company, engaged in a tactical operation, abruptly contacted an enemy force concealed in protected bunkers and trenches. Three of the leading soldiers were pinned down by enemy crossfire. One was seriously wounded. After efforts of 1 platoon to rescue these men had failed, it became obvious that only a small group could successfully move close enough to destroy the enemy position and rescue or relieve the trapped soldiers, 1st Lt. Doane, although fully aware of the danger of such an action, crawled to the nearest enemy bunker and silenced it. He was wounded but continued to advance to a second enemy bunker. As he prepared to throw a grenade, he was again wounded. Undaunted, he deliberately pulled the pin on the grenade and lunged with it into the enemy bunker, destroying this final obstacle. 1st Lt. Doane's supreme act enabled his company to rescue the trapped men without further casualties. The extraordinary courage and selflessness displayed by this officer were an inspiration to his men and are in the highest traditions of the U.S. Army.

paragraph: Edward Allen DeVore Jr. (June 15, 1947 – March 18, 1968) was a United States Army soldier and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration—the Medal of Honor—for his actions in the Vietnam War.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: DeVore joined the Army from Harbor City, California in 1966, and by March 17, 1968 was serving as a Specialist Fourth grade in Company B, 4th Battalion, 39th Infantry Regiment, 9th Infantry Division. During a firefight on that day, near Saigon in the Republic of Vietnam, he single-handedly attacked an enemy position which had pinned down his squad, drawing fire to himself and allowing his comrades to retreat to safety. DeVore was mortally wounded in the assault and died the next day. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions.

paragraph: DeVore, aged 20 at his death, was buried in Green Hills Memorial Park, Rancho Palos Verdes, California.

paragraph: Section::::Medal of Honor citation.

paragraph: Specialist DeVore's official Medal of Honor citation reads:

paragraph: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty. Sp4c. DeVore, distinguished himself by exceptionally valorous actions on the afternoon of 17 March 1968, while serving as a machine gunner with Company B, on a reconnaissance-in-force mission approximately 5 kilometers south of Saigon. Sp4c. DeVore's platoon, the company's lead element, abruptly came under intense fire from automatic weapons, Claymore mines, rockets and grenades from well-concealed bunkers in a nipa palm swamp. One man was killed and 3 wounded about 20 meters from the bunker complex. Sp4c. DeVore raced through a hail of fire to provide a base of fire with his machine gun, enabling the point element to move the wounded back to friendly lines. After supporting artillery, gunships and air strikes had been employed on the enemy positions, a squad was sent forward to retrieve their fallen comrades. Intense enemy frontal and enfilading automatic weapons fire pinned down this element in the kill zone. With complete disregard for his personal safety, Sp4c. DeVore assaulted the enemy positions. Hit in the shoulder and knocked down about 35 meters short of his objectives, Sp4c. DeVore, ignoring his pain and the warnings of his fellow soldiers, jumped to his feet and continued his assault under intense hostile fire. Although mortally wounded during this advance, he continued to place highly accurate suppressive fire upon the entrenched insurgents. By drawing the enemy fire upon himself, Sp4c. DeVore enabled the trapped squad to rejoin the platoon in safety. Sp4c. DeVore's extraordinary heroism and devotion to duty in close combat were in keeping with the highest traditions of the military service and reflect great credit upon himself, the 39th Infantry, and the U.S. Army.

paragraph: John Bushemi

paragraph: John A. Bushemi (April 19, 1917 – February 19, 1944) was an American, best known for his service as a World War II combat photographer and filmmaker for the U.S. Army. Bushemi, the son of Sicilian immigrants, was born in Centerville, Iowa, and grew up in Taylorville, Illinois, and Gary, Indiana. He joined the "Gary Post-Tribune" in 1936 as an apprentice photographer and became known for his sports photography. While working at the "Post-Tribune" he earned the nickname of "One Shot" for his abilities to capture moments on film with one click of his camera shutter. Bushemi enlisted in the army in June 1941. After taking basic training at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, he remained there as a staff photographer in its public relations office. In June 1942 Bushemi was reassigned as a staff photographer to "Yank", a weekly magazine for enlisted men, and was based in its editorial office in New York City. In November 1942 Bushemi was transferred to Hawaii, where he and "Yank" correspondent Merle Miller opened its Pacific bureau.

paragraph: Bushemi covered the Pacific Theater of Operations for "Yank", including the fighting in New Georgia, Munda, Solomon Islands, Makin, Tarawa, and Kwajalein, and was killed in action at Eniwetok in the central Pacific in 1944. Bushemi received a posthumous Bronze Star and a Purple Heart for his military service. Bushemi’s photographs have appeared in "Yank", the "Saturday Evening Post", the "New York Times Magazine", the "Gary Post-Tribune", the "Field Artillery Journal", and in museum and library exhibitions. Among other awards for his photography, Bushemi was inducted into the Indiana Journalism Hall of Fame in 2001.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Bushemi was born in Centerville, Iowa, on April 19, 1917. He was the son of Italian immigrants, the seventh of nine children (six boys and three girls). John's father, Pietro Buscemi, was a native of Calascibetta, Sicily, who immigrated to the United States in 1906, while John's mother, Angelina Cariota, arrived in 1909 with Pietro and Angelina’s eldest son, Mario (later called Marion J. Bushemi), and a daughter, Vincenzina (later called Margaret V. Polizzotto). Pietro worked in coal mining in Iowa. In 1925 the family moved to Taylorville, Illinois, where Pietro worked for the Peabody Coal Company. The family surname was Americanized to Bushemi in the early 1930s. In May 1930, the family relocated to Gary, Indiana, where Pietro found employment at U.S. Steel.

paragraph: As a teen John participated in Golden Gloves boxing tournaments and earned spending money during the Great Depression giving haircuts in the basement of his family's home. Bushemi attended Gary's Lew Wallace High School, but quit school during his junior year to work in the steel mills with his father and brothers. Intending to become a professional photographer, Bushemi used wages from his steel industry job to purchase his first camera. He developed the film in a darkroom set up in the family's home in Gary.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:News photographer.

paragraph: On June 24, 1936, at age nineteen, Bushemi was hired by the "Gary Post-Tribune" as an apprentice photographer and was best known for his action shots of sporting events. Bushemi's snapshots of sports, breaking news, and crime scenes earned him the nickname of "One Shot" because of his ability to take capture significant moments on film with one click of his camera's shutter. Bushemi's sports photos won awards in contests sponsored by the Indiana Associated Press and the Inland Daily Press Association, but he could also capture quieter settings and nature scenes. Bushemi joined U.S. Army in 1941 and became the inspiration for the "Post-Tribune"'s "Dear Johnny" newsletter, which summarized happenings at home for soldiers who were stationed overseas.

paragraph: In July 1941 Bushemi was inducted into the U.S. Army at Fort Benjamin Harrison in Indianapolis, Indiana, and took basic training at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He was appointed to Fort Bragg's public relations office as a staff photographer, where his fellow staff member and close friend was Marion Hargrove, author of "See Here, Private Hargrove" (1942), a bestseller made into a subsequent movie about Hargrove's experiences in the military. Bushemi was included as a principal character in Hargrove's book. Bushemi’s publicity photo of Hargrove appeared on the book's back cover.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Combat photographer.

paragraph: In June 1942 Bushemi was assigned as a staff photographer to "Yank", a new weekly magazine for the army's enlisted men. Bushemi was first assigned to the "Yank" editorial offices in New York City. While based in New York City, Bushemi shot photographs to illustrate articles on subjects such as women working at the Aberdeen Proving Ground, desert warfare training in California, the World Series, and Hollywood actresses.

paragraph: In November 1942 Bushemi and staff writer Merle Miller were transferred to Hawaii to open "Yank's" Pacific bureau. While stationed at Waikiki, Bushemi learned the techniques of filmmaking from Colonel Frank Capra, the former Hollywood director. In addition to taking still photographs, Bushemi shot several movies while covering the Pacific War. Bushemi cut and edited the films himself, adding "A One Shot Production" to the beginning of each one. From "Yank"'s base in Hawaii, Bushemi traveled on assignment to New Caledonia, the Fiji Islands, and Australia. Bushemi’s photographs were part of the exhibition "Yank Illustrates the War" held at the Museum of Modern Art in the spring of 1943. Several Bushemi photographs have appeared on the covers of "Yank".

paragraph: In August 1943 Bushemi covered his first combat assignment in New Georgia in the Solomon Islands with "Yank" correspondent Mack Morriss. Bushemi's photographs were published with Morriss's feature stories in the October 15, November 19, and November 26, 1943, issues of "Yank". Bushemi's next combat assignment, in November 1943, was at Makin and Tarawa in the Gilbert Islands, where he was the only photographer to cover both invasions. Bushemi's article, "Death Battle at Tarawa", appeared in the December 24, 1943, issue of "Yank", after editorial revisions were made in the New York office. Bushemi's photographs at Tarawa didn’t turn out well and were not published; however, "Yank" made extensive use of his photographs from Makin, including a cover photo and in accompanying articles in the December 31, 1943, issue. For his work Bushemi used a Bell and Howell movie camera, a Rolleiflex, and a handheld Speed Graphic, which he often used for combat photos. In January 1944 Bushemi and Miller covered combat during Operation Flintlock at Kwajalein atoll in the Marshall Islands. Bushemi's Marshall Islands photographs, among his last, appeared in the March 10, 1944, issue of "Yank" with Miller's article, "After the Battle of Kwajalein". While boarding a landing craft after the battle, Bushemi broke a finger in his left hand, but refused to return to Honolulu as he anticipated his next combat assignment. Bushemi was covering his fifth battle assignment for "Yank" when he was killed in action on February 19, 1944. Bushemi and Miller had landed on Eniwetok atoll, 350 miles northwest of Kwajalein in the central Pacific, when Bushemi, who was at the front filming and photographing the American landing, was fatally wounded.

paragraph: Section::::Death and legacy.

paragraph: On February 19, 1944, shrapnel from 60mm enemy mortar shells exploded near a group of journalists and photographers covering the American landing on Eniwetok atoll in the central Pacific. Bushemi was critically wounded in the head, neck, and leg. After combat medics treated Bushemi on Eniwetok, he was transported to the USS "Neville", where he died later that day. His last words to Merle Miller, one of the "Yank" correspondents who covered the Pacific War and was with Bushemi at Eniwetok, were: "Be sure to get those pictures back to the office." Bushemi's military rank at the time of his death was staff sergeant (technician 3rd grade). He was the second of four "Yank" staff photographers killed during the war.

paragraph: On February 22 a memorial service was held aboard the "Neville" for Bushemi and Lieutenant Kermit Chapman, who was also killed in the fighting at Eniwetok. A telegram notified Bushemi's family of his death on February 29 and a memorial service was held in Gary, Indiana, on March 3, 1944. Bushemi's body was among the 3,000 American servicemen's bodies returned to the U.S. mainland in October 1947. On November 5, 1947, a high requiem mass was held at Saint Mark Church in Gary. Bushemi is buried in Mount Mercy Cemetery in Gary, Indiana.

paragraph: Mac Cairthinn of Clogher

paragraph: Saint Mac Cairthinn, also Macartan, McCartan (died 506), is recognized as the first presiding Bishop of Clogher from 454 to his death. One of the earliest Christian saints in Ireland, he is known as Saint Patrick's "Threin Fhir", or "Strong Man" for his dedication and faithfulness to the fledgling Church. His feast day is 24 March.

paragraph: Section::::Legend.

paragraph: Saint Macartan grew up in the southern part of Ireland, somewhere in Munster. Before his conversion to Christianity by Patrick, the future saint was known by the name Aidus/Aedh, the son of Caerthen (son of the Rowan Tree). The identity of his father is uncertain, but is sometimes associated with a Dalcassian prince of Thomond or with the Uí Maine of Connacht. Hence the Anglicized later name to come down to us is "Macartan". Some sources claim that he was uncle to Saint Brigid.

paragraph: Hearing of Patrick's teaching, Aidus traveled from his home to hear him preach in Armagh, leaving behind his wife and child. He first met Patrick at Drumlease, near Dromahair, County Leitrim. Here Macartan was baptized and soon became one of Patrick's official missionary staff. He was spoken of as Patrick's "champion" or "strong man". We are told that when the great Apostle was worn out by his work that Macartan supported his faltering steps over rough roads, marshes and rivers by carrying him. Macartan was initially ordained to the role of presbyter (priest) while Patrick was still living, possible by Patrick himself.

paragraph: He was the "staff of Patrick" in the Irish patron saint's declining years. On one occasion after carrying Patrick over a river, an exhausted Macartan expressed a wish that he might be relieved from further travel and allowed settle down in charge of some church close-by his beloved master where he could spend the evening of his life in peace. Patrick, full of sympathy for his faithful companion and friend, agreed that he should establish a monastery in Clogher, and finish out his life there. A monastery was established near the ancient royal fort of Rathmore on the outskirts of the town and one of Ireland's oldest bishoprics was established. To commemorate the occasion Patrick gave Macartan his staff and a number of precious relics contained in a shrine known to tradition as the Domhnach Airgid.

paragraph: Section::::Domhnach Airgid.

paragraph: The Domhnach Airgid (the Silver church) was made to enclose a manuscript that consists of fragments of 39 sheets of the Gospels, written in the distinctively Irish lettering of the eighth or ninth century. On the cover of the Domhnach Airgid is one of the earliest surviving metalwork images of St. Patrick. Traditionally, the book was claimed to be that given by St Patrick himself to his companion St Macartan, making it an object of great veneration. Around 1350, the abbot of Clones, John O Carbry, commissioned a substantial remodelling of the Domhnach Airgid. The figure of St. Patrick is thought to be at the lower right of the cover. In the lower left St. Patrick may be handing the Domhnach Airgid to St. Macartan. The Domhnach Airgid is no. 48 in "A History of Ireland in 100 Objects", and can be seen in the National Museum of Ireland.

paragraph: Anthony Morelli

paragraph: Anthony Michael Morelli (born June 21, 1985) is a former American football quarterback. He was signed by the Arizona Cardinals as an undrafted free agent in 2008. He played college football at Penn State.

paragraph: Morelli was a member of the San Jose SaberCats, Milwaukee Iron, Omaha Nighthawks and Pittsburgh Power.

paragraph: Section::::Early years.

paragraph: As a 10-year-old, Morelli won the National Football League's 1995 Punt, Pass, and Kick competition, throwing a 50-yard pass in front of his hometown crowd at Pittsburgh's Three Rivers Stadium.

paragraph: In his high school years, Morelli was selected to the ESPN RISE Elite 11.

paragraph: Section::::College career.

paragraph: Morelli originally committed to the University of Pittsburgh in August 2003, but de-committed due to Pitt's existing situation with Tyler Palko, along with the recent move of Miami, Virginia Tech, and Boston College out of the Big East, and chose Penn State instead.

paragraph: Morelli's junior year at Penn State got off to a good start. He threw a 42-yard touchdown on his first pass as the Nittany Lion's starting quarterback in a 34-16 win over the University of Akron. However, he struggled after that, particularly in a 28-6 loss to rival Ohio State. With the Lions down 14-6, Morelli threw two late interceptions that Ohio State returned for touchdowns, effectively ending any hopes of a comeback and making the game look a lot more lopsided than it was. Morelli finished the game with only 106 yards passing. As a result of this performance, Morelli's play had become a polarizing issue amongst Nittany Lion fans. Some fans wanted to bring in backup Daryll Clark, a redshirt freshman whose style of play resembles that of Morelli's predecessor and former Heisman hopeful, Michael Robinson. Other fans have come to Morelli's defense, pointing out the amount of playing time typically required to develop good quarterbacks. By season's end, Morelli had thrown for 2,424 yards, 11 touchdowns and 8 interceptions. He took over third place on Penn State's season passing yardage list, trailing only Kerry Collins (1994) and Tony Sacca (1991). Despite his relatively decent statistics, Morelli expressed frustration over the conservative nature of Penn State's play calling in a November 2006 interview with the "Pittsburgh Tribune-Review". After struggling all season, Morelli was able to redeem himself during the 2007 Outback Bowl against Tennessee, leading the Nittany Lions to an upset victory.

paragraph: Morelli's senior season began with a dominant victory over rival Notre Dame but quickly lost momentum with ineffectual campaigns at rival Michigan and at Illinois highlighted by his tendency to turn the ball over in critical situations. Morelli then led Penn State to blowout wins over Iowa and Wisconsin and a close road win against Indiana, but Morelli struggled against rival Ohio State and was unable to rally Penn State to victory over Big Ten rival Michigan State in the closing minutes of the game.

paragraph: Section::::College career.:Controversy.

paragraph: Morelli revealed that he has not spoken with high school coach Neil Gordon since his final game in 2003. He accused Gordon and his staff of sabotaging his college recruitment, spreading rumors about his intelligence and his inability to read defenses.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Arizona Cardinals.

paragraph: Morelli was signed by the Cardinals as an undrafted free agent immediately following the 2008 NFL Draft. In his first professional appearance, Morelli went 2-6 for 13 yards against the New Orleans Saints in Arizona's 2008 preseason opener. He was cut on August 30, 2008, after a lackluster performance in week 4 of the preseason against the Denver Broncos, which included an interception returned for a touchdown.

paragraph: Morelli worked out for the Green Bay Packers and Buffalo Bills during the 2009 offseason. He was also slated to play for the San Jose SaberCats of the Arena Football League (AFL) until they suspended operations indefinitely in August 2009.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Milwaukee Iron.

paragraph: Morelli signed with the Milwaukee Iron of the new AFL on January 2, 2010.

paragraph: He worked out with NFL teams at the 2010 NFL Combine, in hopes of returning to the NFL.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Pittsburgh Power.

paragraph: On November 2, 2010, it was announced that Morelli was signed by the expansion AFL team, the Pittsburgh Power. He was signed along with 15 other players after an open tryout held a month prior. Along with the former Penn State quarterback, the Power agreed to terms with his high school teammates, Tyrell Herbert and Kenny Lewis. Morelli was cut by the Power in February 2011. He was re-signed on March 25. He was released again.

paragraph: Section::::Personal.

paragraph: He was the quarterbacks coach at Plum High School in Pittsburgh. Before moving to Indianapolis to train under the coaching of former NFL quarterback, Jack Trudeau.

paragraph: Moninne

paragraph: Saint Moninne of Killeavy was one of Ireland's early female saints. After instruction in the religious life, she founded a community, initially consisting of eight virgins and a widow with a baby, at Slieve Gullion, in what became County Armagh. They lived an eremitical life, based on that of Elijah and Saint John the Baptist. Moninne died in 517. Her feast day is 6 July.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Moninne was born around 435 in the Donaghmore area of County Down. Her father was Machta, King of the territory stretching from Louth to Armagh and her mother was Comwi or Coman daughter of one of the northern kings. It was said that she was baptised and confirmed by Saint Patrick. When he was passing through the lands of Machta he stopped at her parents' house and predicted that Moninne's name would be remembered throughout time. It was said that she was veiled by Saint Patrick also.

paragraph: There are a couple of versions of the name Moninne, for example Darerca, Blinne or the spelling Moninna which means in Irish "My Ninna" or "My Daughter". A legend says that she got the name "Moninna" when she cured a dumb man and the first word he uttered was "Ninna Ninna". It was also said that when she was a baby the first word she said was Ninna.

paragraph: She is said to have been brought up by St. Brigid of Kildare. Monenna founded a number of convents in Scotland and England and also founded a monastery of nuns in Faughart, Co. Louth, One night the nuns were disturbed by sounds of profane merriment from the homesteads lower down the hill, and when they enquired the cause were told that there was a wedding party in one of the houses. Moninne and her sisters, who knew no other espousal than that of Christ, thereupon determined to seek for themselves a place more suited to their way of life.

paragraph: She took her Sisters west to the island of Begerin to be guided in the ways of monastic life by her uncle, one of the first Irish bishops, St. Ibar. The community eventually returned from Leinster to the north of Ireland, settling first at Faughart, then at Killeavy. Faughart Church was founded by Saint Moninne in honour of Brigid. The monastery at Killeavy (meaning “church of the mountain”), initially consisting of eight virgins and a widow with a baby boy. The lad, whose name was Luger, was lovingly raised by the sisters and in time became a bishop. The number of nuns eventually grew to over 150.

paragraph: She died around the year 517 and was buried at Killeavy.

paragraph: Section::::Veneration.

paragraph: A large granite stone covers the supposed grave of St Moninne and on days when the Pattern (which was the anniversary of the day on which a church had been dedicated to a saint) was celebrated, prayers were said at this spot and the pilgrims continued to her Holy Well further up the slopes of Slieve Gullion, returning to this gravestone for the final prayer.

paragraph: The Pattern Day of St Moninne was 6 July, but with the coming of persecution to the Catholic faith, these religious ceremonies were banned by law. After the suppression of the Pattern in 1825, the existence of the Holy Well was forgotten about but it was re-discovered by Father James Donnelly, C. C., Meigh in 1880.

paragraph: Saint Moninne's Well is marked by a large white cross. The Pattern was revived in 1928 and appears to have survived until 1934. A shrine was placed over the well with a statue Of the Virgin Mary. The inscription on the well reads "Tobhar Naoimh Blathnaidh". The scene was an historical setting for the Holy Year Pilgrimage on 4 August 1974.

paragraph: Monnine's feast day is celebrated on 6 July and is marked by pilgrims visiting her well. The Gaelic Athletic Association club founded in Killeavy in 1888 is Killeavy St Moninna's GAC.

paragraph: Máel Ruain

paragraph: Saint Máel Ruain (died 792) was founder and abbot-bishop of the monastery of Tallaght (Co. Dublin, Ireland). He is often considered to be a leading figure of the monastic 'movement' that has become known to scholarship as the Céli Dé. He is not to be confused with the later namesake Máel Ruain, bishop of Lusca (Co. Dublin).

paragraph: Section::::The foundation of Tallaght.

paragraph: Little is known of his life. Máel Ruain is not his personal name bestowed at birth or baptism, but his monastic name, composed of Old Irish "máel" ("one who is tonsured") and "Ruain" ("of Rúadán"), which may mean that he was a monk of St. Rúadán's monastery in Lothra (north Co. Tipperary). Though his background and early career remain obscure, he is commonly credited with the foundation of the monastery of Tallaght, sometimes called "Máel Ruain's Tallaght", in the latter half of the 8th century. This may be supported by an entry for 10 August in the "Martyrology of Tallaght", which notes that Máel Ruain came to Tallaght carrying with him "relics of the holy martyrs and virgins" ("cum suis reliquiis sanctorum martirum et uirginum"), apparently with an eye to founding his house. There is at any rate no evidence for a religious establishment at Tallaght prior to Máel Ruain's arrival and although "Tamlachtae", the Old Irish name for Tallaght, refers to a burial ground, it was not yet the rule for cemeteries to be located adjacent to a church. Precise details of the circumstances are unknown. A line in the Book of Leinster has been read as saying that in 774 the monk obtained the land at Tallaght from the Leinster king Cellach mac Dúnchada (d. 776), who came from the Uí Dúnchada sept of the Uí Dúnlainge branch of the Laigin, but there is no contemporary authority from the annals to support the statement. In the "Martyrology of Tallaght" and the entries for his death in the Irish annals (see below), he is styled a bishop.

paragraph: Section::::Liturgy and teachings.

paragraph: The best known disciple of Máel Ruain's community was Óengus the Culdee, the author of the "Félire Óengusso", a versified martyrology or calendar commemorating the feasts of Irish and non-Irish saints, and possibly also of the earlier prose version, the "Martyrology of Tallaght". In his epilogue to the "Félire Óengusso", written sometime after Máel Ruain's death, Óengus shows himself much indebted to his "tutor" ("aite"), whom he remembers elsewhere as "the great sun on Meath's south plain" ("grían már desmaig Midi"). In the early ninth century, Tallaght also seems to have produced the so-called "Old Irish Penitential".

paragraph: Although liturgical concerns are evident in the two martyrologies, there is no strictly contemporary evidence for Máel Ruain's own monastic principles and practices. Evidence for his teachings and their influence comes chiefly by way of a number of 9th-century writings associated with the Tallaght community known collectively as the 'Tallaght memoir'. One of the principal texts is "The Monastery of Tallaght" (9th century), which claims to list the precepts and habits of Máel Ruain and some of his associates, apparently as remembered by his follower Máel Díthruib of Terryglass. Much of the text survives in a 15th-century manuscript, RIA MS 1227 ("olim" MS 3 B 23), and in the 17th century, an Early Modern Irish paraphrase was produced now referred to as "The Teaching of Máel Ruain". Of less certain origin is the text known as the "Rule of Céli Dé", which is preserved in the Leabhar Breac (15th century) and contains various instructions for the regulation and observance of monastic life, notably in liturgical matters. It is ascribed to both Óengus and Máel Ruain, but the text in its present form is a prose rendering from the original verse, possibly written in the 9th century by one of his community. These works of guidance appear to have been modelled on the sayings of the Desert Fathers of Egypt, in particular the "Conferences" of John Cassian. Typical concerns in them include the importance of daily recitation of the Psalter, of self-restraint and forbearance from indulgences in bodily desires and of separation from worldly concerns. Against the practices of earlier Irish monastic movements, Máel Ruain is cited as forbidding his monks to go on an overseas pilgrimage, preferring instead to foster communal life in the monastery.

paragraph: Máel Ruain's reputation as a teacher whose influence on the monastic world extended beyond the confines of the cloister walls is further suggested by the later tract "Lucht Óentad Máele Ruain" ("Folk of the Unity of Máel Ruain"), which enumerates the twelve most prominent associates who embraced his teachings. They are said to include Óengus, Máel Díthruib of Terryglass, Fedelmid mac Crimthainn, king of Cashel, Diarmait ua hÁedo Róin of Castledermot (Co. Kildare) and Dímmán of Araid.

paragraph: Section::::Death and veneration.

paragraph: The "Annals of Ulster" report under the year 792 that Máel Ruain died a peaceful death, calling him a bishop ("episcopus") and soldier of Christ ("miles Christi"). In the "Annals of the Four Masters", however, in which he is also styled "bishop", his death is assigned, probably incorrectly, to the year 787. His feast in the "Martyrology of Tallaght" and "Félire Óengusso" is on 7 July. He was succeeded as abbot of Tallaght by Airerán.

paragraph: Jean-Joseph Menuret

paragraph: Jean-Joseph Menuret, called Menuret de Chambaud (23 January 1739 – 15 December 1815) was a French physician and author of a number of medical treatises.He also contributed to the "Encyclopédie" by Diderot and d'Alembert.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Menuret studied medicine at the University of Montpellier with Antoine Fizes, whose opinions he perhaps too exclusively adopted. Returned to practise in Montelimar after he obtained his doctorate, his early works, which were successful, and a fairly large number of articles supplied by him to the "Encyclopedia" by Diderot, although full of paradoxical ideas, but written with a pure and correct style, made him noticed and especially put him in great relationships with the Encyclopedists. He was among the number of writers of this great work, producing nearly eighty articles on medicine.

paragraph: Since staying in a small provincial town could not long be suitable for this active man, industrious, highly educated and gifted with great imagination, this circumstance enabled him to leave Montelimar and try his fortune in Paris, where the many friends he had made did not abandon him. With their protection, he first became physician of the king's stables and doctor of the Countess of Artois.

paragraph: The events of the Revolution came to disturb his rest and forced him to emigrate. He settled in Hamburg. Returning to France after the Coup of 18 Brumaire, he settled in Paris where several learned societies hastened to admit him within their ranks. "Those who knew him particularly ensure that when called in the sumptuous palaces of princes and in the humble asylum of the poor, he devoted to them his first visit. Grown a septuagenarian, he still enjoyed good health; However, one of his colleagues, seeing him sadder than usual, asked him if he felt some discomfort, indisposition: No, my friend replied Menuret; thank Heaven, I am pretty well, but I have a sorrow, old age takes away my sweetest enjoyment: I can no longer climb to the sixth floor".

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: Menuret's first marriage with Louise Cartier de Bois Martin from Valence remained childless. As Louise died in 1773, Menuret married Marie-Elisabeth Monneron (born 1745), daughter of Antoine Claude Monneron (1703–1791), a tax farmer of Annonay, Ardèche and Augustin Monneron's sister. This marriage gave one son, André Menuret – who remained single – and two daughters, Joséphine Menuret and Alexandre Menuret.

paragraph: Carl Adolph Cornelius

paragraph: Carl Adolf Cornelius (12 March 1819 - 10 February 1903) was a German historian. In the context of the 1848 revolutions he was elected to the Frankfurt Parliament in 1848/49, after which he switched from the schools sector to the universities sector and built a reputation as a church historian.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Carl Adolf Wenzeslaus Cornelius was born in Würzburg, Northern Bavaria. He was his parents' first child. His father, Carl Joseph Gerhard Cornelius (1793–1843), was an actor. His mother, Friderike (born Friderike Schwadtke: 1789–1867), also came from a family of actors. The (subsequently ennobled) artist Peter von Cornelius (1783- 1867) was an uncle. The composer Peter Cornelius (1924-1874) was a cousin. His own career choice was influenced by Dr. Theodor Brüggemann, a highly successful secondary school teacher who in 1819 had married his aunt, Elisabeth Cornelius. Carl lived with the Brüggemanns from 1831, and received both career guidance and practical support from his Uncle Theodor.

paragraph: Cornelius studied History at Bonn and at Berlin, where his teachers included von Ranke, Böckh and Karl Lachmann. On leaving university he embarked on a career as a secondary school teacher. He taught successively at schools in Emmerich and Koblenz before moving on again, in 1846, to the Collegium Hosianum, a prestigious Jesuit school at Braunsberg, then in East Prussia.

paragraph: In 1848 he was elected by his fellow Braunsberg citizens to represent the town at the Frankfurt Parliament, a prototype national legislature which in 1848 was seen as a possible precursor to the national parliament of a newly united liberal Germany. Within the parliament Cornelius became a member of the Casino (cautiously liberal) faction and, when the Casino faction splintered in December 1848, of the conservative-liberal group that emerged from it. Faced with the opposition of governments, the ambitions of the 1848 revolution failed to gain traction, at least in the immediate term. The Frankfurt Parliament faded away: on 21 May 1849 Cornelius formally resigned from the it. He never returned to Braunsberg, his formal resignation from the school there being tendered in East 1850. Instead he now became a "freelance" academic, at this stage without any official teaching contract. Encouraged by his old Berlin tutor, Leopold von Ranke, he turned to the study of the Protestant Reformation. He received a doctorate in 1850 and a higher habilitation qualification from the University of Münster in 1851, opening the way to an academic career.

paragraph: Sources differ over the precise dates of Cornelius' academic appointments during the next few years, but he probably remained at Münster till 1854, when he took a teaching post as an associate professor at Breslau University, moving to Bonn as a full professor in 1855. In 1856 he moved to Munich, taking the post of "Catholic Professor", although there was in reality nothing particularly ultramontane or "romantic" in his historical writings. During this period, in addition to his teaching responsibilities, he was working on a two volume history of the Anabaptist Kingdom of Münster, the second volume of which appeared in 1860. He also, in 1857, married Elisabeth Simrock (1829-1907), the daughter of a music publisher.

paragraph: German unification did not disappear from the political agenda after the disappointments of 1848/49. Initially Cornelius supported the which foresaw a united German state that would be administered from Vienna and incorporate those parts of the Austrian empire where German language and culture predominated. This raised various difficult issues because of the multi-national multi-ethnic nature of Austro-Hungary, however, and when unification actually took place it was based on a , creating a smaller German state, completely excluding Roman Catholic Austria, with much power devolved to the regions, and national control exercised not from Vienna but from Berlin. The process of creating this new German state was deftly choreographed by Chancellor Bismarck: after 1866 Cornelius abandoned his support for , becoming a huge admirer of Bismarck's approach to the unification challenge. In the intense disputes involving the Roman Catholic church that followed German unification Cornelius was a supporter of Ignaz von Döllinger. He supported church reforms and rejected the newly advanced dogma of papal infallibility. He was a leading supporter of what came to be known as the Old Catholic Church.

paragraph: In 1858 Cornelius became one of the original members of the of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities. Here he took responsibility for the so-called Wittelsbach Correspondence, a large archive of political papers of the Bavarian ruling house from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. After the departure of Heinrich von Sybel, Cornelius became secretary to the entire commission. He became, in addition, a corresponding member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences and Humanities on 28 October 1897.

paragraph: In his 70s Carl Adolf Cornelius undertook his final major academic project, researching and producing various books and other publications on John Calvin.

paragraph: Charles Green (cook)

paragraph: Charles Green (24 November 1888 – 26 September 1974), also known as Charlie Green, was a British ship's cook, who took part in Sir Ernest Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition as the cook for the Weddell sea party on board the "Endurance". The son of a master baker, Charles learnt to bake, but ran away at the age of 22 to join the Merchant Navy. Whilst in Buenos Aires on board the "Andes" in October 1914, he heard word that Shackleton had fired the expedition's cook, for drunkenness, and was subsequently hired.

paragraph: During the expedition, Green was assisted by able seaman Perce Blackborow, who had come on board as a stowaway. When the ship sank after being trapped in the Antarctic ice, he continued to cook for the crew during their camps on the Antarctic ice, with much more limited equipment and the use of a blubber stove. A few days after the crew arrived on Elephant Island, Green collapsed from exhaustion, and was ordered to rest until he recovered.

paragraph: After the crew were rescued, Green returned to England, where he joined the Royal Navy as a cook, taking part in the war. He was wounded in August 1918 whilst serving on the Destroyer H.M.S. Wakeful, and re-joined the Merchant Navy in 1919.

paragraph: Green was invited to re-join Shackleton on another expedition to Antarctica, the Shackleton–Rowett Expedition, along with many other crew members from "Endurance". During this trip, Shackleton gave Green a set of lantern-slides, before his death shortly after arrival at South Georgia. The expedition continued without Shackleton, but was not a great success.

paragraph: After returning to England in 1922, Green once again rejoined the Merchant Navy, working on board a variety of ships. Using his lantern slides, he gave many talks about the Endurance mission at ports around the World, and continued to give these lectures after retiring from the Navy in 1931.

paragraph: He became a Fire Watcher during World War II within the city of Hull.

paragraph: Green was one of the last surviving members of the "Endurance" crew, and attended the 50th Anniversary reunion in 1964 with the two remaining survivors.

paragraph: Orneore Metelli

paragraph: Orneore Metelli (1872-1938) was an Italian painter of the "Naïve art" style in his native Umbria.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: He began painting at the age of 50 without any prior formal training. He had once been a trombonist for a band in his native Terni. He has awarded a prize at the Paris International Exhibition of 1911. The sculptor Aurelio De Felice in 1936, began earnest artistic critique of his work, after being brought to his attention by the painter Ugo Castellani. The simple canvases, often depicting sparsely populated cityscapes, according to De Felice stand as "true, pure, spontaneous, full of energy, without calculation of purpose, without speculation, or internal imbroglios.

While his goals were defined by a need to run a profitable business, he introduced procedures that replaced previous exploitative, earth-eroding lumbering on Saxe-Coburg's estates with practices that contained aspects of modern ecology. Greiner's insistence on a thorough woodland inventory of his employer's vast, poorly charted lands gave him his enduring recognition outside the field defined by his expertise. His passion for precision, geomatics, and the outdoors made him the first person ever to disprove the results of previous measurements and accurately identify Gerlachovský štít as the highest peak in the whole 1,500 km (900 mi.) long Carpathian mountain range.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Greiner was born to the family of the Lutheran pastor Karl Greiner in the small village of Lichtentanne (today part of Probstzella) in Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld in 1796. His baptismal name is still spelled "Ludwig" in German, Polish, and some Slovak sources, which was also the name he used in his publications. Most Slovak sources now render his baptismal name as "Ľudovít", the Hungarian sources render it as "Lajos". Non-specialist sources also mostly misidentify him as a rank-and-file forester. After high school, he took special qualifying tests in forestry and spent several years gaining experience as forester in Austria and on the Lubomirski estates (administrated by the heirs of Julia Lubomirska) in Habsburg Galicia in the Łańcut and Lviv regions, now in Poland and Ukraine. He finished his education at the Vienna University of Technology where he took mathematics, physics, and chemistry in 1824–1826. He then became the director of forest management and timber rafting on Duke Ernest of Saxe-Coburg's estates, from where he was hired by Ernest's brother Ferdinand as the head of forestry and land management of all of his estates.

paragraph: Section::::Years at Jolsva.

paragraph: Ludwig Greiner started his job at Jolsva (today Jelšava, Slovakia) on 1 April 1828. The estates as a company were headquartered in Vienna, but its center of operations was at Jolsva (Jelšava) where Greiner spent the rest of his life. He married Maria Glósz, with whom he had nine children. Two sons, Hugo and Ludwig, followed in their father's footsteps. After his wife's death in 1857 Greiner married Otilia Szinowitz of Besztercabánya (today Banská Bystrica, Slovakia), but had no more children. He was buried at the Jolsva (Jelšava) cemetery next to his first wife.

paragraph: Section::::Years at Jolsva.:Descendants.

paragraph: His son Ludwig Junior became chief engineer at the Coburg-Saxe estates and later forest management director at Rozsnyó (today Rožňava, Slovakia) where he was a founder of the private Girls' Institute of Education in 1871, the first high school in the Hungarian part of what was then the Austro-Hungarian Empire projected specifically for Slovak female students. Ludwig Greiner Senior's great granddaughter Sibylla Greinerová (b. 1919) became an acknowledged Bratislava painter of human figures in motion.

paragraph: Section::::Triangulation of Gerlachovský Peak.

paragraph: Ferdinand Saxe-Coburg's estates were distributed over areas that are located in today's Slovakia and Hungary. The estate managed from Káposztafalva (today Hrabušice, Slovakia) was in the vicinity of the Tatra Mountains, a craggy section of the Carpathians. According to Greiner's own account, he climbed Lomnický Peak () on 10 August 1837, a beautiful sunny day, measured its elevation with an altimeter and used the quadrant to determine that Gerlachovský Peak () was actually higher. It was unexpected, because the previous, generally accepted measurement by the Swedish botanist Göran Wahlenberg from 1813 recorded Gerlachovský Peak's elevation as 285 m (935 ft) lower. Greiner was convinced that his own observation about Gerlachovský Peak's relative height was right, but because he considered the altimeter and quadrant insufficiently precise instruments, he triangulated the elevations of several of the Tatra peaks from the vicinity of the town of Poprád (today Poprad, Slovakia), not far from Káposztafalva (Hrabušice), in the fall of 1838 after he obtained a very accurate theodolite from a friend. Greiner's paper published the next year dethroned the mountains of Kriváň () and Lomnický Peak, which had been alternately considered the highest peaks until then, and reported that the highest point in the Tatras and the whole Carpathian chain was Gerlachovský Peak. The elevation Greiner calculated was off by only 13 meters (43 ft) by comparison to what it is known to be today.

paragraph: Section::::Head of forestry and land management.

paragraph: Greiner improved the effectiveness of the woodland valuation methods in the Kingdom of Hungary and trained a whole new generation of foresters in a comprehensive approach to the management of natural resources. In 1851 he helped to organize the Hungarian Forestry Association ("Ungarischer Forstverein") and then served as its vice president. While his goals were defined by a need to run a profitable business, he introduced procedures that replaced previous exploitative, earth-eroding lumbering on Saxe-Coburg's estates with practices that contained aspects of modern ecology. Among his lasting environmental achievements has been the restoration of the timberline on largely deforested King's Bald Mountain (, 1,946 m, 6,385 ft.) to its natural elevation of 1,650 m (5,413 ft). One of his 21st-century successors described Greiner's principles in modern terms as aiming at and achieving permanent sustainability. Greiner's timber yield tables published in 1877 and 1886 proved sufficiently reliable to have remained in use for over a century.
