# St. Mary's Basilica (Halifax, Nova Scotia)

St. Mary's Cathedral Basilica is a Gothic Revival Catholic cathedral located in the downtown core of Halifax, the capital of Nova Scotia. It is the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth and is the largest Catholic church in the Archdiocese. Consecrated on 19 October 1899, it was made a basilica in 1950 by Pope Pius XII. The St. Mary's Cathedral Basilica boasts the tallest granite spire in North America.

## History

The church has been significantly expanded and altered over time. Originally constructed of wood, it was replaced by a stone structure beginning in 1820 inspired (as were many churches of the day) by Saint Martin in the Fields in London. It was expanded to its present size beginning in 1869, according to designs of Patrick Keely who introduced the Gothic Revival façade and spire. Besides the Gothic features, the spire also includes Norman and Germanic design elements.
The façade and spire are notable for being built entirely of granite. All of the stone was locally obtained, except for the three portals which have a jamb shaft of pink Aberdeen granite. The spire has a height of 189 feet (58 m).
The church enjoyed a papal visit from Pope John Paul II in September 1984; that year was the 200th anniversary of the precedent set by the laity of Halifax of forcing the repeal of the anti-Catholic legislation in Nova Scotia, and the British Empire.
The basilica was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1997.
The church was heavily damaged in the Halifax Explosion on 6 December 1917. All of the stained glass windows were shattered by the force of the blast, and tiny pieces of glass were embedded in the walls. In addition to being peppered by the glass shards, the paintings on the walls suffered water damage from a blizzard which entered the church through the broken windows. The murals were covered over with white paint in the 1950s. In June 2019, work was begun to remove the layers of white paint (using scalpels) and restore damaged portions of the paintings—a project expected to continue until 2024.
In 2024, Saint Mary's Cathedral Basilica welcomed the relic of the Blessed Carlo Acutis as part of the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth's Eucharistic congress.

## Cemetery

St. Peter's Cemetery, located to the west of St. Mary's Basilica, is the oldest Catholic cemetery in Halifax, created when the original chapel was built at the site of the basilica in 1784. The St. Peter's Cemetery served as the main Catholic burial place in Halifax until 1843 when it was replaced by Holy Cross Cemetery.
# Randall Luthi

Randall B. Luthi (born 1955) is an attorney and rancher from Freedom, who served as a Republican in the Wyoming House of Representatives from 1995 to 2007. He was the Speaker for his last two-year term, 2005 to 2007. Prior to 2005, he had been the House Majority Leader. Previously, he had been an intern in the Congressional office of Wyoming Congressman Dick Cheney.
From 2007 to 2009, he was the director of the Department of Interior's Minerals Management Service.
On March 1, 2010, Luthi became president of the National Ocean Industries Association (NOIA), a Washington, D.C.–based political action committee representing "the companies that develop the nation’s valuable offshore energy resources.". As NOIA president, Luthi wrote to the acting director of the Minerals Management Service on June 7, 2010, advocating rapid clarification of offshore drilling rules because "it is not a time for a lengthy and undefined ban or suspension on all drilling."
In June 2007, upon the death of U.S. Senator Craig Thomas, Luthi was among thirty applicants for appointment to fill the vacancy until a special election is held on November 4, 2008. Luthi was not chosen by the Republican State Central Committee as one of the three finalists to be considered for appointment by the state's governor, Democrat Dave Freudenthal. Luthi tied for fifth place on the second ballot and lost a tie-breaking vote.

# Sagebrush scrub

Sagebrush scrub is a vegetation type (biome) of mid-to-high elevation Western United States deserts characterized by low-growing drought-resistant shrubs including the sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) and its associates. It is the dominant vegetation type of the Great Basin Desert (Great Basin shrub steppe), occurs along the margins of the Mojave Desert, including in the southern slopes of the Sierra Nevada and the Transverse Ranges, in California, and occurs in the Colorado Plateau and in the Canyonlands, where it may be referred to as cool desert shrub.
It often occurs adjacent to piñon-juniper woodland communities, between 4,000 and 7,000 feet elevation, where annual precipitation is 8"-15", much of it snow.
It sometimes occurs in pure stands of sagebrush or with associates that vary from region to region. Sagebrush scrub may occur as an understory of pinyon-juniper woodland.

## Mojave Desert

In the Mojave Desert, sagebrush associates include saltbrush (Atriplex spp.), rubber rabbitbrush (Ericameria nauseosa), green ephedra (Ephedra vidris), hop-sage (Grayia spinosa), and bitterbrush (Purshia glandulosa).

## Sierra Nevada

Sagebrush scrub occurs in relatively deep soils along the Sierra-Cascade axis, running from Modoc County to San Bernardino County.
In the Sierra Nevada range, in California, sagebrush associates include bitterbrush (Purshia tridentata), curl-leaf mountain-mahogany (Cercocarpus ledifolius), and rabbitbrushes (Chrysothamnus spp., Ericameria spp.). Average summer temperatures are in the 80's Fahrenheit, and 10-20 degrees F in the winter. It can survive on 7 inches of annual precipitation and so is generally below the piñon-juniper woodland vegetation type, which requires 12 to 20 inches. Its range is 4,200 to 7,000 feet in the eastern Sierra Nevada range, in California.

# Procession in Lace

Procession in Lace (French: Le Cortège en dentelles) is a painting executed by the Belgian artist Paul Delvaux in 1936. It shows a group of women walking toward a Roman triumphal arch. It was one of the first paintings in which Delvaux drew inspiration from Giorgio de Chirico and painted women reminiscent of mannequins, something he would continue to do throughout his career. Art historians have highlighted the painting's theatricality and described it as one of Delvaux's first major works.

## Subject and composition

A procession of women dressed in white lace garments follow a paved road that leads away from the viewer. Their faces are not seen as they head toward a Roman triumphal arch. In the far distance, another triumphal arch can be seen over the same road. The painting has the dimensions 115 cm × 158 cm (45 in × 62 in) and is painted in oil on canvas. On the bottom right, it is signed and dated "P. DELVAUX / 1-36".

## Analysis and reception

Procession in Lace was one of the first of Paul Delvaux's painting to show the influence of Giorgio de Chirico, and it thus set out the direction Delvaux would take for the rest of his career. This involved placing unusual objects side by side and adhering to a poetic logic. Chirico was also a major influence for the surrealists and Delvaux's relationship to this group was complicated. Delvaux said he had become "liberated" by passing through surrealism but that he was not a natural surrealist; the art historian Maurice Debra says "the delightful Procession in Lace" was his "true liberation".
The art historian Virginie Devillers contrasts Procession in Lace with Delvaux's earlier, expressionist paintings, writing that their fairground aesthetics and unelegant women have been replaced by gesturing women remeniscent of wax dolls and mannequins, wearing dresses that could be inspired by fashion magazines or garments belonging by Delvaux's aunts. Devillers calls it Delvaux's "first accomplished staging". The art historian Michel Draguet says Procession in Lace was one of Delvaux's first "major compositions" and interprets the use of classical elements in this and paintings such as The Pink Knots (1937) as expressions of Delvaux's awareness of catastrophic threat in Europe. Draguet says the combination of mystery and theatricality "probably" should be understood as an attempt at "domestication through beauty of a chaos that is pacified through ritual". Nathalia Brodskaïa says the "peaceful, ceremonious moment" depicted in Procession in Lace creates a secret in the painting, despite not containing any action that stands out as special.

## Provenance

Since 1972, Procession in Lace belongs to the city of Hanover in Germany, where it is in the collection of the Sprengel Museum. Its German name is Die Spitzenprozession. A study on paper was sold at auction in 2008 for 17,300 GBP.

# Dominican Church and Convent of St. James, Sandomierz

The Church of St. James in Sandomierz, also known as the Shrine of Blessed Sadok and 48 Dominican martyrs, Monastery of Dominicans (Convent of St. James), Shrine of Our Lady of the Rosary, is one of the oldest brick churches in Poland (and probably in Europe) and the second oldest Dominican monastery in Poland (after the monastery in Cracow). This church is a unique indirect form of Romano-Gothic style. The Roman ceramic decorations on the outside gabled walls are unusual and beautifully done. The stained glass windows inside are particularly beautiful, and date from 1910 to 1918.

## Dominican Order

This was the second priory founded in Poland by Saint Hyacinth. During the Golden Horde invasion of Poland in 1260, Sadok and 48 other Dominicans were murdered by Mongols soldiers there. Because of this martyrdom, the Polish Dominican friars may use red belts in their habits. There is also a holy icon of Our Lady of the Rosary - the title of Mary that is the most important to the Order. After the January Uprising, Dominican friars were thrown out by the Russian administration during the Partition. They returned to Sandomierz in 2001.

## The Lesser Polish Way

In this church, The Lesser Polish Way of St. James to Santiago de Compostela has its beginning. In medieval times it was an important stop for the pilgrims from Eastern and Northern Europe.
