|To the bishop of Clonmacnois (Cluanen.), and Magonius and Donald Omollayd, (fn. 2) canons of Clonfert. Mandate, as below. Upon its being lately set forth to the pope on behalf of John de Burgo, a canon of Tuam, that the late Donatus, archbishop of Tuam, (fn. 3) considering that if the parish church of the town (oppidi) of Athnareg in the diocese of Tuam (which was situate in a populous place, (fn. 4) and the cure of souls of whose parishioners was exercised by a perpetual vicar, and in which were a rectory and a perpetual vicarage, which rectory and vicarage were of lay patronage and were by papal grant and dispensation held by the said John under one and the same roof), were erected into a collegiate church, with persons or secular clerks who should celebrate divine offices therein, should, along with the warden for the time being, make a chapter, (fn. 5) and should enjoy the privileges of other collegiate churches, the devotion of the parishioners and other faithful to the said church would be daily increased, divine worship would be augmented therein, and the said town would be greatly improved, (fn. 6) had erected to the honour of Almighty God and the Blessed Virgin Mary (under whose name the said church was founded), by his ordinary authority, the said church into a collegiate church, with a wardenship for a warden (fn. 7) who should be the head (caput) therein, and the number of eight priests as members who, with the said warden, should make the chapter, with other pre-eminences and privileges of collegiate churches, saving the rule of the said rector John, and saving the wardenship, for as long as he lived, (fn. 8) and had decreed, etc., that the said rectory and vicarage, and all the tithes within the bounds of the parish of the said parish church, and its fruits, etc., should belong in perpetuity to the said collegiate church, and had united, etc., in perpetuity the said vicarage and rectory and fruits and tithes, etc., to the wardenship and capitular mensa of the said church, so that the said John should in future be called warden, and should continue the possession of the said wardenship as he had done of the said rectory and vicarage, and that the said priests should be by the patron and by the provost, bailiff, and peers of Athnarig, or at least by the said provost and bailiff and peers, by gift of the patron, be presented to the said guardian, and should be by him and the vicar, collectively exercising the cure of souls, instituted and confirmed, and that on the cession or death of the then warden [a warden], removable every year, should, at the presentation of the said patron, provost, bailiff, and peers of the said town, or of the provost, bailiff, and peers, by the gift of the patron, if he should give them his right [of patronage], be instituted by the said wardens and vicars, and that after such institution the said warden should have power over all the vicars, and exercise above them the principal cure of souls over the parishioners, and that certain priests should collectively exercise the cure of the soul of the vicar, (fn. 9) as was contained more fully in the letters of the said archbishop, the pope erected the rectory of the said church into a collegiate church, with a wardenship for a warden [as] head and master, [and the number] of eight secular priests as members of the college, and with other collegial insignia, etc.; and confirmed all the contents of the said letters, and, pro potiori premissorum robore, himself erected the said church into a collegiate church anew, with a wardenship for a warden, who should be head therein, and with the said number of eight priests or vicars, who with the said warden should constitute the members of the chapter, with a common seal, chest, (fn. 10)mensa, and other collegial insignia, rights, etc., after the manner of other collegiate churches, to the honour (fn. 11) of Almighty God and the Blessed Virgin Mary, without prejudice to any other, and united, etc., in perpetuity to the said wardenship the said rectory and vicarage, and all tithes within the bounds of the said parish to the capitular mensa of the said college, etc., granted that the said patron (and his heirs and successors), provost, bailiff [and peers] of the said town, or the provost, bailiff, and peers, by gift of the right of patronage, should nominate and present fit persons both to the said wardenship and to the places of the said priests, as often as they became void, that the said warden should institute as perpetual vicars in the said college those thus presented, that he should be removable every year by the same patron, provost, bailiff, and peers, and a new warden be always presented to the same priests or vicars, and be deputed and instituted by them in the said church, and that the said warden, after obtaining institution, should during the year for which he was instituted exercise power over all the vicars of the said church and the cure of souls of them and its parishioners, and reserved the right of patronage and of presenting the said priests to the warden for institution as vicars, and the right of presenting a warden to the priests for institution in like manner every year, to the said patron, provost, bailiff, and peers of the said town, or to the provost, bailiff, and peers for the time being, by gift of the right of patronage, if the patron was willing to give it to them, saving always in all things the right of the parish church and any other, as is contained more fully in the [pope's] same letters. (fn. 12)
|Seeing, however, that, as was contained in the recent petition of Richard de Burgo, clerk, of the diocese of Clonfert, the said erection has not been made by the said archbishop, that the consent of the chapter of Tuam has not been given, that the said archbishop did the foregoing when he was lying in bed and ill, and without the due formalities, (fn. 13) and also without the consent of the patron having been asked, that the said patron did not supplicate, as was expressed in the said letters, and that as a result of the said erection divine worship has not been augmented in accordance with the said ordinance, seeing that at no time has the number of priests increased in the said church in accordance with the said ordinance, and that the form of the said erection has not been observed; and the pope having been informed by the said Richard that the said John with a great army has caused a certain monastery of the Cistercian Order to be burned, has taken possession of certain fruits, etc., of the archiepiscopal mensa of Tuam, during voidance of that church, thereby incurring sentence of excommunication, and has, when under that sentence, (fn. 14) and publicly proclaimed excommunicate, taken part in divine offices, in contempt of the Keys, thereby contracting (fn. 15) irregularity, the pope has been petitioned by the said Richard (who alleges that he is by both parents of a great race of earls, princes, and nobles, and is in or about the thirteenth year of his age, and that the yearly values of the [said] canonry and prebend and of the said rectory and vicarage do not exceed 6 and 60 marks sterling [respectively]), to order the said letters to be declared surreptitious, and to restore the said rectory and vicarage to their pristine state, and unite them to the said canonry and prebend for as long as the said Richard shall hold the latter, if collated to him in virtue of these presents, etc. (fn. 16) The pope, therefore (who lately decreed that provisions, or grants or mandates to make provision, of canonries and prebends of cathedral churches which should emanate in any way on behalf of any persons not having completed their fourteenth year should be null and void, unless it were specially granted to them by the apostolic see that they could hold them under that age (fn. 17) ), considering that if the foregoing be true the said letters are surreptitious, and that the said rectory and vicarage ought to be restored to their pristine state, although the said John has under pretext of the said letters, without having acquired any new title, but by his temerity, detained unlawful possession of them de facto for some years, and still does so, etc., hereby orders the above three, if the said Richard will accuse the said John before them, to summon the latter and others concerned, and to summon, in regard to the said union, those interested, and, if they find the foregoing to be true, to decree that the said letters were and are surreptitious, and were and are null and invalid and without force for the said erection, restore the said rectory and vicarage to their pristine state, as they were before the said erection was made, and deprive and remove the said John from them and from the said canonry and prebend, and, in the event of their so doing, to collate and assign to the said Richard the said canonry and prebend, and, with the patrons' consent, to unite thereto for his lifetime the said rectory and vicarage, whether they be void by the said declaration, deprivation, and removal, or be void in any other way, inducting him, etc. The pope further grants him a special indult (fn. 18) to receive and retain the said canonry and prebend, notwithstanding the said defect of age and the pope's said decree, and any other papal constitutions, etc. Apostolice sedis providentia circumspecta.

|To James, bishop of Norwich. Grant, as below.

(7 Jan.)
St. Peter's, Rome.
(f. 326r.)
|To the archbishop of Cashel, (fn. 21) the chancellor of Killaloe (Laon[i]en.), and Denis Ohogan, a canon of Cashel. (fn. 22) Mandate, as below. It was lately set forth to the pope by William Oduuyr [sic], a monk of the monastery of St. Cross, Votthtarlaumd, O. Cist., in the diocese of Cashel, that (after he had been dispensed by papal authority on account of illegitimacy, as the son of the preceptor of the house of Cloynawll in the same diocese, of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem, and an unmarried woman, to be promoted to all, even holy orders and hold a benefice even with cure), upon the voidance in a certain way of the precentorship of Cashel, which is a non-major dignity, he without any other dispensation got provision made to him thereof by authority of the ordinary, under pretext of which he took possession, and detained it for a certain time, taking a few fruits therefrom. The pope having also been informed by the said William that Matthew Omulryaen, abbot of the said monastery, was an open fornicator and adulterer and had had offspring by several women, had engaged in trade and caused wine to be sold in taverns, with which he was very often inebriated, (fn. 23) and had by his negligence permitted a certain fee belonging to the said monastery [to remain] in the hands of laymen; and having learned that the said William desired to serve God with the convent of the said monastery under its regular habit, rehabilitated him on account of the foregoing, and ordered Thomas Michael, a canon of Cashel, to receive him as a monk of the said monastery, give him its regular habit, and receive his profession, and, if the said William would accuse the said Matthew before him, to summon the latter, and, if he found the foregoing to be true, to deprive and remove him, and in that event to make provision to the said William, if found fit, of the said monastery, and appoint him abbot thereof, the pope at the same time dispensing him to be so appointed, and to rule the said monastery for two months only, even without having made the said profession, the pope's letters stating that its yearly value did not exceed 50 marks sterling, not counting the offerings which are offered by the faithful at the wood of the Holy Cross in the church of the same monastery, and which are collected by collectors appointed for the purpose. (fn. 24) Subsequently, as the recent petition of the said William contained, after he had caused the said Matthew to be summoned before the said Thomas, and had accused him of the foregoing, and after the said Thomas had received him as a monk of the said monastery, but without his having made his profession, the said Thomas, wrongfully proceeding, promulgated an unjust sentence by which he absolved the said Matthew from prosecution by the said William, (fn. 25) from which sentence the latter appealed to the apostolic see within the lawful time. Seeing that, as the said petition added, it is alleged that the said value is greater, and was so at the time of the date of the said letters, although it does not and did not then exceed 100 marks sterling; that in the first dispensation obtained by the said William it is only stated that he was the son of a religious and an unmarried woman, not that he was the son of the preceptor of the said house, wherefore, as is alleged, the said letters are surreptitious; and that, although the fornication and offspring of the said abbot Matthew are so notorius that they could not by any tergiversation be concealed, inasmuch as he had sons and daughters living, who have been christened and brought up as his sons and daughters, and who are reputed and held to be his children, nevertheless, seeing that the witnesses to prove the said fornication cannot depose as to the place and time of the said abbot's carnal intercourse with women, such intercourse usually taking place not in public but in secret, it may happen that the said William may fail to prove his case, and the said Matthew be enabled to continue in his evil life, (fn. 26) the pope, at the said petition, hereby orders the above three to summon the said abbot Matthew and others concerned, hear the cause of the said appeal, etc., and that of the principal matter, hear both sides, and decide what is just, without appeal, causing their decision to be observed by ecclesiastical censure, and moreover to execute the said former letters, as if they had been directed to them, notwithstanding the said omissions and misstatements, etc. Religionis zelus, vite ac morum.

Harris Wofford
Today Americans are remembering the legacy of President John F. Kennedy on the 50th anniversary of his assassination. Many in the national service family were inspired by his life, and his legacy lives on through AmeriCorps VISTA, one of the anti-poverty programs he envisioned before his untimely death.
The Presidential Citizens Medal, the nation's second-highest civilian honor, recognizes American citizens who have performed exemplary deeds of service for their country or their fellow citizens. Sen. Harris Wofford will be honored along with other recipients at a White House ceremony on Friday, Feb. 15.

Challenge Wheeling Race Date Set
A local organization will take advantage of Wheeling's history and attractions to raise money this summer.
Plans are in the works for the new fundraising event, spearheaded by Carpet Showcase Flooring Center. The event – called Challenge Wheeling – will be scavenger race held June 21 throughout the downtown Wheeling area. Proceeds will benefit Youth Services System.
"Youth Services System is a wonderful organization and a great asset to our community," said Michael Contraguerro Sr., owner of Carpet Showcase Flooring Center.
Both Carpet Showcase Flooring Center and YSS are celebrating 40 years in the community this year.
"What better way to celebrate our 40th anniversary than with a new fundraiser raising money for an organization that has also seen success over the past 40 years," he said.
YSS provides a number of services to kids, families and youth, according to YSS Executive Director John Moses. He said the organization has been very fortunate that the community has embraced its mission.
Teams of two or more people will have three hours to follow clues during the fundraiser that is part race, part scavenger hunt and part urban exploration. Challenges will be both mental and physical, and racers are free to choose their own routes from clue to clue, whether via public transporation or by foot.
Running a similar race in Pittsburgh last summer, Carpet Showcase Vice President of Sales and Marketing Christie Contraguerro thought the format would work well in Wheeling.
"It's going to be a really fun day," she said. "We are really challenging Wheeling to rediscover our city and raise money for Youth Services System. We're challenging (people) to get out, get active. You don't have to train for this race. Anyone's welcome."
In a planning meeting Wednesday, Christie Contraguerro emphasized the current sign-up need for both volunteers and racers. The entry fee includes an official t-shirt, race bib, bottle of water and after-party access.
Registration and race information are available through www.challengewheeling.com. Individuals must be 18 or older to participate.
The top three finishers will win $500 for first place, $100 for second place and $50 for third place. For those who wish to run in style, an optional costume contest provides the opportunity for three winning teams to receive $50 gift certificates to River City. River City -which will serve as race headquarters – will be the location for an after-party featuring special drink prices and entertainment by DJ Daner and Jeff Tappe of Smoke Daddy and the Crawfish.

(Cairn) (NR).
OS 6" map, (1924)
Meallach's Grave: Clyde group, long cairn. This cairn has been greatly robbed and its edges are indefinite, the whole area now being turf-covered. The cairn material remains about 3' high round the chamber. The extent of the cairn was approximately established in 1961 by probing (MacKie 1966). It seems to have been more or less trapezoidal about 45ft long from the portal stones, widening to a maximum width of about 35ft at 14ft behind the facade. A cutting running SE from the centre of the chamber showed at the edge of the cairn several slabs which may have fallen from a kerb of dry-stone walling. The cairn was composed of large irregular stones and earth.
At the SW end of the cairn, an impressive facade was revealed in the 1961 excavations. It measures 26ft 9 ins across, consisting of 8 orthostats set in a shallow and somewhat irregular curve about 3ft 6ins deep. They were linked by dry walling, still standing up 2ft 4ins high. A thick deposit of grey earth and accumulated in the forecourt, to a depth of 2-3ft against the facade. In it were 21 spreads of charcoal, and many scattered fragments at varying depths. A sill-stone 1ft 2ins deep, was firmly wedged between the portals. In front of the sill-stone was a small paved area. Over the grey earth was a deliberate blocking, of stones in brown earth; its upper surface formed a rough pavement. Two radiocarbon dates were obtained from charcoal in the grey soil deposits. The earlier, from near the base of the deposit, gave a date of 3160 +/- 110 BC, the later, laid down shortly before the blocking, gave a date of 2240 +/- 110 BC.
The chamber was excavated in 1902 (b). It measures 13ft 3ins by from 2ft 9ins to 4ft 6ins and is divided into 3 compartments. The artifacts found in the 1961 excavations are in the Hunterian Museum; they comprise pottery sherds (A 1961 13, 19 and 20), flint blade (A 1961 18) flint scraper (A 1961 12), pitchstone and quartz fragments (A 1961 22) and a later blue dumb-bell shaped glass bead (A 1961 61). Items found in 1902 are in the NMAS: pottery sherds and pitchstone fragments (EO 272).

Panthers stop Martins Ferry
MARTINS FERRY – For the second time in three days, Buckeye Local has defeated Martins Ferry on the baseball diamond.
Buckeye Local's Austin Marshall struck out a dozen in scattering five singles and issuing just one free pass in a 12-2 triumph Wednesday.
In addition, he drove in a run with a pair of singles and a triple as
"That's two conference wins," first-year Buckeye Local head coach Rick DeLuca said. "That's a pretty good start."
The Panthers rewarded Marshall by tallying eight times in the third inning when they sent 12 batters to the plate.
Shane Duncan highlighted the uprising with a two-run single, while Marshall singled and tripled in two at-bats in the frame. Buckeye Local took advantage of four base-on-balls and a trio of Martins Ferry errors in that inning alone.
"We don't have any starting pitching right now," Martins Ferry head coach Anthony Reasbeck said after watching four hurlers combine for a dozen walks. "If we don't find some soon, there's going to be a lot of night's like this."
Marshall whiffed eight of the first 10 Purple Riders he faced, including the side in the third.
With Marshall doing the work with his arm and bat, teammate Chase Hopkins joined in with three singles and a double from his leadoff spot.

This cold German potato salad recipe, aka Kartoffelsalat, comes from my Mutti. It was always such a treat when she served it for supper. And yes, this one is German. In fact, the mayonnaise in this, tells me it's from the northern part of Germany. Southern Germany's salads rarely have mayo. Looking for a non-mayo one? Check the ones listed below.
It seems like there are as many traditional recipes for German potato salad as there are German Omas (grandmothers). Each has just a slight difference, meaning, there's no ONE way of making it.
When questioned about the authenticity of its German origins, I did some research. Each family, it seems, has their own way of how to make potato salad. And each is delicious.
In northern Germany, most potato salads are cream based, such as this one above. My Mutti also made hers similar to this (coming from Berlin).
In southern Germany, most potato salads are made with a vinegar, bacon, and broth base. Check out this one sent in by one of our readers.
This potato salad is also what I'm usually asked to bring to parties. It always brings rave reviews and I've learned to have the recipe ready to give out.
If you want a still easier and quicker recipe, try the adaptation of this, my Easy Potato Salad.

"dealing with tiny prints has been fantastic. people are so helpful every time I call. this product is great. cards are thick: do not feel thin or cheap. color is vivid and beautiful.. loved everything about the ordering experience and the product"
"Very nice generally and I'm happy with the result: my only complaint is that the tinyprints software isn't very versatile. I needed an enclosure card, rather than an RSVP card, and there was no way to do it 'my way' : design elements specific to an RSVP were fixed, and I had to talk to a designer to get what I wanted. BUT the designer was smart, knowledgeable, and friendly--knew exactly what I meant and fixed it up right away."
"I really love this set of invitations. The response card is a nice contrast to the blue Bold Star invites. I wish we could have a bit more control over text on these but they worked out fine and they looked great!"
"Coordinates well with the invitation. It works well for single responses (they color in the star), but doesn't have a spot to put the number of attendees in the case of a family. I would recommend a short line after "will attend"."

Hampton: NASA and Langley
Becoming Hampton: A haven for technology
Few real estate deals have had more impact on the history of Hampton than the sale of 1,659 acres of Back River farmland to the federal government in 1916. Engineered by a small group of local businessmen, the $290,000 transaction quickly transformed the rural landscape, changing fields of wheat...
Hampton archive: 'Cadets' at Langley launched NASA
When I grew up between the two World Wars in Newport News, most of us on the Peninsula looked askance at the bearded scientists at Langley Field as impractical space cadets. Those were the natal years of the NACA - the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, which has grown into the National...
Hampton archive: Early days at Langley were colorful
One man I'll never forget is Col. Walter Weaver, who commanded Langley Air Force Base from 1936 to 1939. I was having dinner with the Weavers in their Langley quarters in February 1939 when he said something that shocked me deeply. "Europe will be at war in 60 days," he told me, then an impressionable...

BMI View: Although conclusive evidence of the use of chemical weapons by the Syrian regime is unlikely to come anytime soon, the US and its allies could start providing lethal aid to rebels over the coming months. While this could provide a significant boost to the insurgency, we reaffirm our view that the civil war is likely to continue over the coming years.
The US appears to be shifting to the view that Syria's government has used chemical weapons against its people. The White House told the US Congress on April 25 that the nation's intelligence agencies had determined, "with varying degrees of confidence" that President Bashar al-Assad's government had used sarin, a chemical agent, on a small scale. Such claim follows the one made by the research chief of Israeli military intelligence, Brigadier General Itai Brun, who said on April 23 said that he had evidence that Mr. Assad's government had repeatedly used chemical weapons in the past month. The UK and France also said they had limited but growing evidence that the regime had used chemical weapons.
US President Barack Obama stated in August 2012 that although he had not ordered a US military response to Syria's civil war yet, "A red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized." Obama reiterated this view on April 26 during a meeting with King Abdullah II of Jordan, when he said that, while more evidence was needed, proof of the use of chemical weapons would be a "game changer". As a result, the US President is coming under renewed pressure to intervene in Syria. Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona said on April 25 that " The Syrians crossed the line the president had said would be a game changer", while New York Representative Eliot Engel, the ranking Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said that it's " Time for the U.S. and our allies to immediately arm" elements of the Syrian opposition.
Conclusive Evidence Not Coming Soon
After the George W. Bush administration's embrace of faulty intelligence on weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, the U.S. would need the highest level of confidence to present evidence of Syrian chemical weapons use to the international community and make a case for action against the Assad regime. US officials said there is no consensus in the U.S. intelligence community about whether Syria has used small amounts of nerve gas, with different agencies expressing widely varied confidence in their assessments.
There appears to be two types of evidence at this stage: physical samples, of soil from the scene of the alleged attacks and human tissue samples, and videos, photographs and witness accounts. However, there are questions over the "chain of custody" of the physical evidence, while several chemical weapons experts believe that the videos and witness accounts gathered so far do not appear as sufficient indication that chemical weapons have been used. Finally, although the UN has launched an investigation in co-operation with the Organisation for the Prevention of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), the team-finding mission has not received the green light from the Syrian government to enter the country. As a result, we believe that conclusive evidence about the use of chemical weapons by the regime is unlikely to come anytime soon.
More Intervention On The Cards
The Obama administration does not wish to get drawn into another major war in the Middle East in our view, especially since North Korea and Iran are more pressing geopolitical issues. However, increased pressure to act could cause the US and its allies to increase the level of their involvement in the Syrian conflict. Among the options on the table, we highlight:
Lethal Aid: The US's 'safest' course of action would be to provide lethal weaponry to the rebels. Such step could take place even under a scenario whereby no conclusive proof of the systematic use of chemical weapons is found. However, a major risk involved in bringing lethal aid to rebels is that weapons could fall into the hands of radical Islamist insurgent groups operating in the country. As a result, the provision of lethal aid will remain relatively limited.
Military Airstrikes: The US military has enough airpower in the region to strike military targets across Syria. Moreover, strikes could be taken under the umbrella of the North Atlantic Treaty organisation (NATO). That said, although NATO has installed Patriot missile batteries in Turkey, which could be aimed to shoot down Syrian aircraft, Turkey allowed the missile batteries to be placed there only for defensive purposes, and NATO nations would have to agree before they could be used for offensive strikes. Furthermore, such option would take time to deliver results. For instance, the NATO alliance bombed the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia for 78 days in 1999 before a political agreement to end the Kosovo conflict was reached. We believe that such course of action is highly unlikely without conclusive evidence on the use of chemical weapons.
No-Fly Zone: US State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said in March that the United States was considering imposing a no-fly zone over Syria. This would involve the creation of humanitarian safe areas that would also be no-fly zones off limits to the Syrian air force, and it would entail taking down Syrian air defences and destroying Syrian artillery from a certain distance beyond those zones. Although the deployment of a no-fly zone theoretically requires the approval of the UN Security Council, which is highly unlikely given the probable Russian and Chinese veto, the US and NATO could decide to act unilaterally. However, the enforcement of a safe zone would tie the United States to a protracted presence in Syria, a risk which the US administration may be not ready to take.
Ground troops: According to an analysis by the US Department of Defense, it would take up to 75,000 troops to secure Syria's chemical weapons facilities if they were in danger of being looted. Although an actual deployment could involve far fewer ground troops, from various nations, the scope of such a deployment remains significant. We believe that a ground troop invasion will remain off the cards even under a scenario whereby the US administration comes to the conclusion that chemical weapons have been used systematically by the regime.
A Turning Point?
Although we believe that an increased Western involvement in the Syrian conflict in the form of military strikes, a no-fly zone or the deployment of ground troops is unlikely at this stage, the possible decision to provide lethal aid to rebels could provide a significant boost to insurgents. However, there could still come a point this year when pressure for direct Western military intervention becomes overwhelming, despite the clear risks. In any case, we remain sceptical that the opposition will take control of the entire country anytime soon, as the insurgents' firepower will likely remain inferior to that of the regular army even if lethal aid is provided. Moreover, divisions among the opposition remain deep-seated, which will hinder the militants' ability to undertake coordinated efforts to fight the regime. Finally, even if the rebels take over Damascus, areas in the south and the west of the country would likely remain under the control of Assad's loyalists ( see our online service, March 12, ' Set For A Prolonged Civil War').
Political violence will therefore continue over the coming years. Indeed, the power vacuum created by the regime's withdrawal from the capital would trigger intensified conflict between Syria's ethnic groups, especially if weapons continue to flow into the hands of competing organisations. In the worst-case scenario, Syria could slide into a prolonged sectarian conflict, similar to Lebanon in the 1980s.
