William Matthew Merrick Thomas (May 3, 1878 – September 18, 1951) was an American missionary bishop of the diocese which eventually became the Anglican Episcopal Church of Brazil.

## Early and family life

William was born at Mattapany, the historic plantation of colonial Maryland governor Charles Calvert in St. Mary's County, Maryland to former Confederate Captain George Thomas (1836-1903) and his wife Ellen Ogle Beall(1842-1909) His mother was the daughter of the late Rev. Upton Beall and greatgranddaughter of former Maryland governor Benjamin Ogle. They met while Capt. Thomas was recovering at a Richmond, Virginia hospital from wounds received at Culp's Hill during the Battle of Gettysburg. The family included at least six children, among them: John H. Thomas (1869-1931), Rev. Upton Beall Thomas (1870-1939), Tazewell Thomas (1872-1942), and Louisa Thomas(1875-1952).
William M.M. Thomas attended the University of Virginia and graduated in 1901. He first graduated from the Virginia Theological Seminary in 1904. The same institution later awarded him a Bachelor of Divinity degree in 1911 and a Doctor of Divinity in 1925, the year of his elevation to bishop.

## Ministry

Thomas arrived in Brazil in 1904 after his VTS graduation and ordination as deacon. He was ordained a priest the following year. He first taught at the divinity school in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil (1905-1910) and served as rector at the Church of Our Savior in Rio Grande (1907-1910). In 1912, he founded the Southern Cross Church School (for boys) in the state capital, Porto Alegre, and served at its headmaster (1912-1925) as well as taught various subjects at the new theological school (1921-1941).
In 1925, the Brazilian diocesan convention elected him as coadjutor to bishop Lucien Lee Kinsolving, who had announced his return to the United States for health reasons. Presiding bishop Ethelbert Talbot, bishop Joseph Blount Cheshire of North Carolina and bishop Kinsolving consecrated him. Thomas succeeded bishop Kinsolving as diocesan upon his resignation in 1928. In addition to leading the missionary diocese for more than two decades, Thomas also wrote an article about its history, published in 1942.
In 1939 Brazil's first native-born bishop, Athalício Theodoro Pithan a graduate of the Southern Cross school's first class, became his suffragan. However, his elected coadjutor in 1948 and successor upon his retirement the following year was the Wisconsin-born rector of Trinity Episcopal Church in Columbia, South Carolina and former missionary in Panama, Louis Chester Melcher.

# Solus (typeface)

Solus is a serif typeface that was designed by English sculptor and stonemason Eric Gill for the British Monotype Corporation and released in 1929.
Solus has a structure of straight, regular serifs reminiscent of slab-serif typefaces of the nineteenth century, but with a reduced build giving an impression of crispness. Along with these characteristics, Solus bears the distinct personality of Gill's characteristic preferences in letterforms, such as the pointed end to the top left of the letter 'a'. James Mosley describes Solus as "essentially a mechanistic type — a ‘light Egyptian’", a conclusion also reached by editor Robert Harling in his book on Gill's work.
Solus was not particularly popular during the metal type period, which Harling suggests was because it was too similar to Gill's pre-existing Perpetua, not having an italic and having little appeal in display use, unlike more aggressive slab serif designs. Gill's Joanna, designed some years later in a similar style but with an italic, has become much more popular.
Solus has not been digitised by Monotype; an unofficial revival has been made by the company K-Type. Financier, by Kris Sowersby, is a respected revival loosely influenced by Solus, Perpetua and Joanna. Its optical size designed for small-size text is influenced by Solus and Joanna more while its display size more recalls Perpetua.

# Undercover (novel)

Undercover is a 2015 novel by American author Danielle Steel. The novel details a romance between a former DEA agent, Marshall Everett, and a fashion editor, Ariana Gregory, who meet in Paris.
The novel peaked at No. 8 on the New York Times Best Sellers List.

## Plot

Ariana Gregory, the daughter of a recently widowed US ambassador, arrives in Paris a year after being kidnapped in Buenos Aires. There she meets Marshall Everett, a former undercover DEA agent. Ariana's safety now depends on one man - Marshall.

## Reception

The novel received mixed reviews from critics. Ann-Maree Lourey of the New Castle Herald praised the story's gripping plot and pointed out its similarities to the Patty Hearst kidnapping. However, Lourey also criticized Steel's writing style, commenting, "I am still waiting for Steel to learn to write, as opposed to being able to come up with stories. Surely she should realise by now that her writing is extremely stilted in any and every novel that she writes?"
# Starting from San Francisco

Starting from San Francisco is a collection of poems by Lawrence Ferlinghetti, his third collection and fourth book, published in 1961. The hardcover edition included a short vinyl recording of Ferlinghetti reading some of his poems. The title is a reference to Walt Whitman's "Starting from Paumanok": Ferlinghetti numbered himself among Whitman's "wild children", and Whitman's influence is shown throughout the work.
The poems are based mainly on a journey across the United States and a meditation on the Inca city of Machu Picchu, a photograph of which is shown on the cover. The poetry mingles tenderness with satire and hallucination. Scattered through the book is some of the better poetry generated by the San Francisco School. The poems are longer and more sustained than in his previous publications. They are more concerned with ideas than with verbal glitter, singing out boldly with great clarity.
The poem "Euphoria" starts:
       As I approach the state of pure euphoria I find I need a large size typewriter case to carry my underwear in and scars on my conscience are wounds imbedded in the gum eraser of my skin which still erases itself...
Perhaps the best known of the poems is "The Great Chinese Dragon", although one critic says that the Remedial-English style of this poem makes one doubt that Ferlinghetti would ever be able to write poetry again. Gregory Stephenson, incorporating quotes from "The Great Chinese Dragon", says the dragon "… represents 'the force and mystery of life,' the true sight that 'sees the spiritual everywhere translucent in the material world.'" Perhaps what Ferlinghetti wants his reader to do is to see the jazz music and the everyday images and the repetitive references to common culture found in his poems; and then see beyond them to "the spiritual everywhere translucent."
