The 2019 Black Santa Appeal was officially launched at St Ann’s Church, Dawson Street, yesterday (Tuesday December 17). Archbishop Michael Jackson and the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Paul McAuliffe, joined Black Santa Canon David Gillespie and his fellow man in black, Fred Deane, for the official start of the annual charity collection. The pair and the parish team will remain outside the city centre church shaking their buckets each day until 6pm on Christmas Eve.
The choir of the Kildare Place School braved the bitter cold to spread festive cheer with their wonderful singing, under the direction of their principal, Ian Packham. Different choirs will join the sit out every lunchtime.
The Black Santa Appeal has become a festive tradition in the lead up to Christmas. “It has become a firm Christmas tradition in Dublin and we’re delighted about that,” Canon Gillespie stated. “People are very generous and part of the reason for that is, I believe, because every cent of the money donated goes directly to the charities. There are no costs and everyone from St Ann’s who is involved in the appeal does it voluntarily.”
He added that no matter what the weather over the coming week, they will be outside St Ann’s collecting every day from 10am to 6pm. He encouraged anyone who is in the city centre between now and Christmas Eve to drop by and make their donation. Those who can’t make their way into Dublin can still donate by post, clearly marked ‘Black Santa Appeal’.
The appeal raised almost €40,000 last year and over the 18 years that it has taken place in Dublin, almost three quarters of a million euro has been donated to good causes. Among the charities that will benefit this year are Barnardos, St Vincent de Paul, Simon, the Salvation Army, Protestant Aid, the Laura Lynn Foundation and Solas Project.
The original Black Santa Sit Out began in Belfast in 1975 when Dean Sammy Crooks decided to stand outside St Anne’s Cathedral to raise funds for flood victims in Bangladesh. He became known as ‘Black Santa’ because of the long heavy clerical cloak he wore to keep warm. The tradition continues there to this day. This is the 19th year of the Black Santa Appeal at St Ann’s in Dublin. The then Vicar of St Ann’s, Canon Tom Haskins, started the Dublin tradition.

A big thank you to the participants and generous donors of the first ESCP Europe Fundraising Gala in London last week. An impressive £220,000 was raised which will contribute greatly to the ESCP Europe Scholarship Programme.
Over 100 guests gathered at the Four Seasons Park Lane for a wonderful evening sponsored by Ondra Partners and New End Associates. A cocktail reception was offered, serving champagne premier cru Frerejean Freres, and was followed by a gourmet autumn dinner.
The auction, led by Adrian Biddell, spurred great interest for the wonderful lots donated by Pierre Guénant (72), Olivia de Posson (06), Jean-Pierre Raffarin (72), Christian Marti (93), and W. Salamoon & Sons.
Around 15 alumni pledged their support to the ESCP Europe Scholarship Programme for the equivalent of eight years of study or a total amount of £120,000.
This unprecedented mobilisation demonstrates the unity and dynamism of the ESCP Europe alumni network. It also shows its commitment to support the School's growing momentum, forging a path to become the number one business school in Europe with a truly global reach.
On behalf of the scholarship students and all the ESCP Europe community, thank you!

A generous Wisbech group is to fund smoke alarms for the town’s most vulnerable residents as part of a partnership with the fire service.
Wisbech Rotary Club has teamed up with staff at Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service’s Wisbech Fire Station for the scheme, which will see the fire service attempt to reach out to the most vulnerable people in the community in a bid to protect them from fire.
Group Commander Chris Parker, Head of Community Fire Safety at CFRS, explained: “This funding is hugely generous of the Wisbech Rotary Club and is a fantastic opportunity for us to work with a community group who has the same aim as us, which is to reach out and help those who are most vulnerable in the community.
“We have identified a number of vulnerable residents who we know we need to engage with and provide with fire safety advice and fit Rotary-funded smoke alarms for. Whilst our staff are engaging with the residents we can also look for further opportunities to help the individual including linking them up with other agencies and the Rotary Club for support.”
Each smoke alarms costs about £6. The fire service will utilise the stock it has to fit alarms for vulnerable residents and this will then be replenished as and when needed by funding provided from the Rotary Club.
Daljit Roy, President of Wisbech Rotary Club, said: “Wisbech Rotary Club is trying to help vulnerable and needy people in our community and safety is one of the biggest things on our agenda.
“The project to work with the fire service will benefit not just the residents but also a number of organisations who are trying to reach out and improve the lives of those who are hardest to reach in our town. A smoke alarm is a simple yet life-saving piece of equipment and one that can easily make a big difference in helping to keep our residents safe.
“This is the first scheme of its kind here in Cambridgeshire, so Wisbech Rotary Club is trailblazing the way, and we really hope others will follow suit across the county and develop similar partnerships with their local fire stations.”
My favorite people are those who are generous with their knowledge. Typegirl (Tiffany) is one such person (and I know her via Stewf, knowledge-generous soul par excellence). Not long ago, she casually mentioned that she wanted a copy of this exhibition catalog. It immediately sparked my interest: when I learned of the exhibition earlier this year, I had had an unrealistic impulse to go to the Hague to see it. I mean: I really really really wanted to go.
There are a lot of type designers whose work I admire, but TFJ has kind of a privileged position in my ... in my æsthetic? In my way of looking at things? His work just seems to fit. Also, I have had the great joy of trekking around lower Manhattan with TFJ as guide. He's good people: modest, funny, and nothing if not generous with his knowledge.
I soon learned that the catalog was designed in part by Abi Huynh, whose work I was already somewhat familiar with from my rooting and foraging around the internets. So just a few minutes after Tiffany mentioned the thing, and then passed along a link to abesbooks.com, I had ordered it. And regretted it. “Ugh, what an impulse buy, shipping from the Netherlands is more than the book itself, I can't just grab every book I want,” etc. But it came today. And the minute I opened it up I knew I hadn't made a mistake. This is a book I needed to have. It's beautifully designed; it smells good; the papers are lovely; there are pictures Tobias took of signage in New York (gaspipe lettering, plus Gotham precursors) that I had never seen at this scale before (smaller versions of some gothic lettering photos appeared in the specimen book for Gotham — I still remember the day that came in the mail); there are remembrances from people who have long known him; there's an interview with and essays by Tobias; there's information on the various faces. I love this book.

Ok I'm a realist. Austria probably would not do it. Germany? Maybe, but I'm not sure? Maybe the US? lets see it is an interesting development. But back to the focus. I don't expect ANY EU country to do it but I expect it from the EU because it is supposed to stand 4 democracy (most europeans want to see a happy lolcat snwoden), freedom (well I expect freedom for snowden! nothing less.), liberty to travel around in the EU and explore all these amazing countries so close together that are very different but share some common culter like GNU, LInux, Firefox, Metalab, Friends, Family, etc...
I dont really think the "thing" that connects the EU is religgion. Our Senior C++ architect (also funded by AWS, yay!) is a deep believer in the Muslim faith. And I dont have the feeling that he wants to blow up anything (ok once he set a tent on fire but I think it was an accident I think)...ok I'm getting paranoid I need sleep. I had my birthdayparty today and I did not sleep for moar than 20hour ;))

A very generous couple bought 10,000 face masks (made by a local textile mill) and donated them to be distributed as gifts to the residents of the small town of Mount Airy, NC!
The masks are handed out at several places, including by police officers in a park. :-)

RC Church of Our Lady and All Saints built thanks to the generosity of the Constable Family who lived in the Manor House
In 1840-50 people came from Ireland to escape the ravages of the Irish Potato Famine. They settled in an area here now known as Irish Fields. www.flickr.com/photos/52219527@N00/14070210808/ These settlers greatly increased the catholic population who at that time had to travel a 15-mile round trip to Myddleton Lodge in Ilkley every Sunday to hear Mass.
In 1845 local solicitor Thomas Constable formed plans to build a catholic church here and on July 28th wrote to Bishop Briggs regarding the “building of a chapel.”
By 1851 Thomas had built the church for £4,000. His sister Miss Mary Constable who lived at Dovecote House in Boroughgate helped him and contributed £1,000 towards the cost. The architect was Charles Hansom.
The parish grew and in 1867 the west end of the church was extended and the portion that now contains the organ gallery was added at a cost of £700.
Thomas Constable died on 18th November 1891 and was buried in a vault at the west end of the church, his wife Elizabeth Ducarel de la Pasture d1919 was buried beside him. His sister Mary who died in 1878 is buried in Otley cemetery.
In 1943 Mary Stourton, Baroness Mowbray, daughter of Thomas Constable, gave the church to the diocese.
In 1872 some of the land around the church was sold to Harewood Housing Trust for sheltered housing and when the last descendant of the Constable family left the Manor House, the house was let to Harewood on a long lease to be refurbished and turned into flats.
Generous pours from a few bottles Carlo brought to the dinner. Candy sweet but not cloying with a nice acidic component and pleasant finish. It's a full bodied ice wine with an attractive tropical fruit aroma that went well after a spice dominated (but not spicy hot) meal.

Lunch - $10.30.
Although generously sized (enough to fill two people) and with the requisite "wok heat", this dish was a little underwhelming, lacking in the taste that characterises good char kway teow. I had gone here under the recommendation of some visiting Malaysians, who admittedly didn't have this dish, instead enjoying their fish head curry. I don't know whether I will give them another shot (probably the Mee Siam), or go back to the nearby Temasek. Admittedly the outside tables at Istana have funkier tablecloths, but I'm not sure that compensates sufficiently with regards to the food....

PPS: a personal note that I attach too ALL the emails I sent nowadays:
Grant Snowden Asylum! NOW!
Ok I'm a realist. Austria probably would not do it. Germany? Maybe, but I'm not sure? Maybe the US? lets see it is an interesting development. But back to the focus. I don't expect ANY EU country to do it but I expect it from the EU because it is supposed to stand 4 democracy (most europeans want to see a happy lolcat snwoden), freedom (well I expect freedom for snowden! nothing less.), liberty to travel around in the EU and explore all these amazing countries so close together that are very different but share some common culter like GNU, LInux, Firefox, Metalab, Friends, Family, etc...
I dont really think the "thing" that connects the EU is religgion. Our Senior C++ architect (also funded by AWS, yay!) is a deep believer in the Muslim faith. And I dont have the feeling that he wants to blow up anything (ok once he set a tent on fire but I think it was an accident I think)...ok I'm getting paranoid I need sleep. I had my birthdayparty today and I did not sleep for moar than 20hour ;))
Generosity week ran from February 24th to March 2nd 2014 at USF as a way for students to give thanks for the generosity of all the donors that contribute to the University of San Francisco.
The week started with a Generosity Food Truck Kickoff, a “Thank You” banner signing and a chance for students to meet the student philanthropy committee.
Could you imagine USF without any of these buildings or statues?

75% of the cost of LCSI was funded by 3,407 donors. Gifts ranged in size from $2 to $10 million, from Alumni, Faculty, Staff, Parents, Friends, Foundation and Corporations.
Gleeson Library
The library has received over 4,000 donations from Alumni, Students, Faculty, Staff, Parents, Friends, Foundations and Corporations. Some of the books in Gleeson Library were donated to USF by students like you, through previous Senior Class Gift campaigns.

The curator of this project, Mark Garry, has spent the past two years visiting Pittsburgh while undertaking a curatorial residence at the Mattress Factory, continuing a relationship that began when Mark undertook an artist residency for an exhibition in 2007. In addition to becoming much more aware of Pittsburgh’s broad musical history, Mark became aware of the diverse group of remarkable musicians who work at the museum. Mark has invited musicians from Berlin, Dublin, London and Brussels to collaborate with these musicians enabling a somewhat unique situation where the staff are directly involved in generating what is presented at the museum.
Tickets for the debut performance are available HERE.
