About Church Times
The Church Times, founded in 1863, has become the world's leading Anglican weekly newspaper. It has always been independent of the Church of England hierarchy. It was a family concern until 1989, when ownership passed to Hymns Ancient & Modern, a Christian charitable trust. The Church Times was started to campaign for Anglo-Catholic principles, which it did with vigour and rudeness. But in the 1940s and '50s the paper began the move to broaden its outlook and coverage. It now attempts to provide balanced and fair reporting of events and opinions across the whole range of Anglican affairs. The rudeness we now leave to our readers.

The first HP fic I have unleashed on the world... cross posted on ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
preposterice, which explains the strange plot. It was written to meet the prompt: Cliched plot, Harry and Draco meet at a party, they drink, they sex.
I don't know about the cliche, but I am proud to relate that it fulfils the other plot points and yet is very definitely a gen-fic. It had to be precisely 500 words long, which may make it a little choppy, but never mind! Harry, Draco, Hagrid, post-war.

From Ashley (1990) The Dominicans.
The [Dominican] community in Bologna had its troubles, including demonic incidents which, after Dominic's death, led to the establishment of the Salve Regina procession. Several of the brethren got the idea they should become Cistercians...
Possibly they didn't like demons.
I have a feeling that this may not be the most serious history of the OP out.
In other news, i had ocassion to visit the (very useful, although their comments on Protestantism and Neo-Platonism are a bit tendentious) online edition of the New Catholic encyclopaedia http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/
The sidebar adverts, however, are something else entirely. I have to admit that I was surprised that the antique prints one site was advertising as perfect gifts for first communion, confirmation, the purchase of a new home, birth of child or grand child included this charming image:
