Poème de l'amour et de la mer
Short description
The Poème de l'amour et de la mer (literally, Poem of Love and the Sea), Op. 19, is a song cycle for voice and orchestra by Ernest Chausson. It was composed over an extended period between 1882 and 1892 and dedicated to Henri Duparc. Chausson would write another major work in the same genre, the Chanson perpétuelle, in 1898. The Poème consists of two parts separated by an orchestral interlude, based on the poems La Fleur des eaux (The Flower of the Waters) and La Mort de l'amour (The Death of Love) by Chausson's friend Maurice Bouchor (1855–1929). Bouchor also provided the lyrics for another fifteen mélodies by Chausson. One such song was Le Temps des lilas (The Time of Lilacs), the last four verses of which Chausson transcribed and incorporated into the ending of the second part of the Poème. At the premiere on February 21, 1893, in Brussels, Chausson himself played the piano to accompany the tenor Désiré Demest. The orchestral version was first performed on April 8 the same year by the soprano Éléonore Blanc and the Orchestre de la Société Nationale de Musique, conducted by Gabriel Marie. The piece typically takes just under 30 minutes to perform. The first complete recording of Poème de l'amour et de la mer was made by soprano Verna Osborne in 1956 but with the pianist Robert Vetlesen rather than an orchestra accompaniment.

Petrus Crassus
'''Petrus Crassus'''
Petrus Crassus was a jurist of the eleventh century, teaching at Ravenna. He is known for his treatise The Defence of King Henry (Latin: Defensio Henrici IV) from 1084 supporting the Emperor Henry IV against Pope Gregory VII during the investiture contest.Chronology of Expansion According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, he was the only layman involved in the struggle, and supported the autonomy of the state. Walter Ullmann says that the Defensio is "the first book that employed Roman law in a professional manner and in the service of public government."Medieval Foundations of Renaissance Humanism (1977), p.38. Joseph Canning writesA History of Medieval Political Thought (1996), p.101. Peter Crassus' text also formed part of the general theme of Romanism developed among Italian supporters of the Salian monarchy, as witnessed by Benzo of Alba's Liber ad Heinrichum IV. (c.1085), with its emphasis on the central role of the emperor as ruler of the world (with Rome its head), 'vicar of the Creator' (vicarius conditoris) and maker of popes.

Above Bar Church, Southampton
For
Above Bar Church is an evangelical church in Southampton, affiliated to the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches. The building is on the corner of Above Bar Street and Ogle Road in Southampton City Centre, with shops on the ground level and the auditorium and other rooms above them.
Above Bar Church, Southampton
History
History This history is based on Past and Present,Past and Present (Southampton: Above Bar Church, 1979) a booklet published by the church for the opening of a new building in 1981.
Above Bar Church, Southampton
Founding of the church
Founding of the church Above Bar Church was established in 1876 by Henry Samuel Earl, a missionary with the Foreign Christian Missionary Society of the Disciples of Christ (then synonymous with the Churches of Christ; the two became formally separate in 1906). Earl started preaching in the Philharmonic Rooms on Above Bar Street (on the site of what later became the Odeon cinema and is now shops) in February 1876, with a local choir to lead the singing and the widow of a Congregational minister playing the organ. More than seven hundred people came to the first service, and even more the following week despite a snowstorm. On the third Sunday, the hall was full. The majority of these people were members of other churches, of course, but a regular congregation began to develop. Henry Earl rented a small Baptist church that was being used as a warehouse and had it repaired and furnished to seat more than 300 people. As well as filling this building to capacity on Sunday mornings, Earl was soon also running week-night services and had started a Sunday School. A church was formally established in August 1876 with an initial membership of 33. A clothing manufacturer from the north of England, Timothy Coop, donated £3,000 to Earl towards the cost of buying land and constructing a permanent building. Between the Philharmonic Hall and Ogle Road was a plot of land, which Earl bought for £1000. He also bought three more lots in Ogle Road for £300. One of these was a skating rink (both ice skating and roller skating were popular in the late 1870s)Lynn Pearson, 'For Amusement Only ' and the other two were part of the grounds of a large mansion, Ogle Hall. Volunteers from the church dismantled the skating rink and used the bricks and windows for the new church building, which opened in 1880. On 17 August 1886, a Trust Deed was signed, passing the ownership of the site and building to the trustees of ‘Church of Christ, Above Bar’. Henry Earl stayed in Southampton for less than ten years (though it seems he didn't return to the USA until 1891), by which time he had baptised around four hundred peopleThomas Hagger, '"Heralds of Christian Unity: Being Brief Biographical Sketches of Some Pioneers of the Restoration Movement" (Melbourne: Austral Printing and Publishing Company, 1938). and the membership of the church had grown to over 100. Earl handed over leadership of the church to Aurelius Glidden, who stayed just two years, but who saw continued growth. There were six more ministers, mainly Americans, during the next 25 years, often with considerable gaps between them. The church continued to grow gradually, and increasingly moved away from the influence and control of the Church of Christ in America, as well as becoming more financially independent.
Above Bar Church, Southampton
1912–1979
1912–1979 In 1912, a new minister was appointed, Frederick Phillips, a former electrical engineer. As a young man, he had been a deacon at Above Bar Congregational Church just down the road, and for the three years prior to becoming minister of the Church of Christ, he pastored a mission church in Winchester. In 1917, the final break with the American denomination came when British Churches of Christ were offered the opportunity to either join a national federation or become independent. The church continued to grow during World War I and, by the early 1920s, the membership had risen to 400, with much larger congregations. Phillips held the post for the next forty years, retiring in 1952 at the age of 82. At his retirement he recalled a time when the morning service had a congregation of only twenty, and commented that, ‘It is really wonderful how God has brought it up’. Another minister remarked that he didn't know another church for miles around that had seen so many people converted to Christian faith. Frederick Phillips was succeeded by Leith Samuel, who was the minister for 27 years. Leith Samuel had previously been a Missioner with Intervarsity Fellowship and was a gifted evangelist and Bible teacher with a strong commitment to systematic expository preaching. This was a period of significant development in the church. It was renamed Above Bar Church, there was a growing commitment to world mission, home Bible study groups were introduced, and assistant ministers and pastoral workers were appointed. In the 1970s, the ageing building, built on a tight budget almost a hundred years before, was badly showing its age. After a major crack appeared in the ceiling in May 1976, it became clear that it would cost £150,000 to repair the building. And it would still remain a large and inflexible Victorian barn of a building with very limited ancillary rooms. For a number of years, developers had been approaching the church wanting to make use of the prime site. Now, with a desperate need for action, another developer suggested a scheme with shops on the ground floor, the church above and still with an entrance on Above Bar Street. The church was positive about the plan and appointed Robert Potter, of Brandt Potter Associates, as architect. Royal Insurance Investment Department took over the developer's interest in the scheme and covered a substantial proportion of the building costs. The final service in the old building took place on 1 July 1979.
Above Bar Church, Southampton
Post 1980
Post 1980 David Jackman, who was appointed as Assistant Minister in 1976, became the Senior Minister on Leith Samuel's retirement in 1980. The new church building opened in 1981 and provided much better facilities than the previous one, though with a smaller seating capacity in the main body of the church. The auditorium, which seats over four hundred, was designed by Robert Potter as a hexagon, drawing on the concept of the amphitheatre with the partially tiered seating angled towards the front. The ceiling is made of Columbian pine, while much of the woodwork at ground level is beech. The communion table, made for the new building is of English elm. The basement, which was nearly not included in the project, has roughly the same area as the previous church hall, while the top hall is significantly larger. The organ was built by Copeman Hart for the church in 1977–79, and was first installed in the old building for a few months before demolition. In 1991, David Jackman resigned to start the Proclamation Trust's Cornhill Training Course. There was a gap of just over five years before Dr. John Balchin was appointed as Senior Minister in January 1997. He retired in 2004 and was succeeded by John Risbridger in September of that year. Paul Webber joined the staff in 2011 (replacing Andrew Page, who stepped down to focus full-time on UCCF's The Mark Drama), and Tim Sutton, who joined in 2013 (replacing Paul Allcock on his retirement). Sutton moved to be minister of Westward Ho! Baptist Church in September 2016. Webber became the Minister with responsibility for Mission and in September 2019 Chris Webb was appointed to a new role as Minister for Discipleship. Paul Webber resigned in 2020 and John Risbridger resigned in 2022. Jonathan Berry - former director of True Freedom Trust and graduate of the Cornhill Training Course - was appointed Senior Minister in July 2023 and inducted on 16 September 2023.

Social impact insurance
Social impact insurance Hollard and Dalberg created HUGinsure the world's first Social Impact Insurance entity. This was done in association with Aon and the Lloyd’s market. It will create a specialized risk assessment entity that will measure and manage risks associated with the funding of social impact organizations. It will apply tested rating methodologies and risk management principles to facilitate the underwriting of social impact funding. HUGinsure’s service will help funders assess the credit worthiness of social projects and organizations so they can deploy capital with confidence, accelerating the timely flow of funds to social organizations and preventing disruptions in their operations and impact. HUGinsure expects to accelerate over $400 million towards global development efforts by 2018. HUGinsure was launched at the Clinton Global Initiative in New York In September 2013. Social Impact Insurance is any insurance or insurance related product or service provided with the intention to generate measurable social and environmental impact together with a financial return. Social Impact Insurance can be applied in both emerging and developed markets, and target underwriting outcomes from below market to market norms, depending upon the circumstances and degree of social impact achieved. As with Social Impact Investing, Social Impact Insurance tends to have its roots in either social, development, or environmental issues. Social Impact Insurers actively look to provide risk mitigation products and services to socially relevant projects in a manner that enhances the probability of success whether by enhancing credit worthiness to attract investment and or to speed up or stabilise cash flows or protecting people processes and assets against the multitude of risks which may otherwise hamper success to the detriment of society. Impact Insurers are primarily distinguished by their intention to address social and environmental challenges through the provision of insurance coverage. For example, criteria to evaluate the positive social and/or environmental outcomes of investments or project that may benefit from insurance coverage are an integrated component of the underwriting processes. Social Impact Insurance can be in the form of insurance including Credit, Marine, Property Damage, Engineering and Construction, Liability, and Life Insurance.

The National Prize for Arts and Sciences () is awarded annually by the Government of Mexico in six categories. It is part of the Mexican Honours System and was established in 1945 by President Manuel Ávila Camacho to promote the country's artistic, scientific, and technological advancement. It is awarded to one or more persons or to a non-governmental organization that meets the conditions of the prize, in one of the following categories: Linguistics and literature Fine Arts History, Social Sciences and Philosophy Popular arts and traditions Physics, Mathematics and Natural Sciences Technology and Design In 2015, the prize was divided between National Prize for Arts and Literature () and National Prize for Science - José Mario Molina Pasquel y Henríquez (). The former is awarded by the Secretariat of Culture and the latter by Secretariat of Public Education. The prize is a gold medal, a rosette, a diploma signed by the President of Mexico and over $823,313.95 pesos (Approximately $40,000 US dollars). Prior to 1945, a National Literature Prize () was established by the Secretariat of Public Education, which ceased to be awarded after the creation of the present prize. In a controversial move, in 2020 Bertha Cecilia Navarro y Solares, movie producer, was awarded an ″extraordinary distinction.″ For a complete list of winners in tabular format, see the corresponding article in Spanish.
