Pope Cornelius
Pope Cornelius was the bishop of Rome from 6th or 13th March 251 until his martyrdom in June 253. He was pope during and following a period of persecution of the church, while a schism occurred over how repentant church members who had practiced pagan sacrifices to protect themselves could be readmitted to the church. He agreed with Cyprian of Carthage that those who had lapsed could be restored to communion after varying forms of Reinitiation and Penance. This position was in contrast to the Novatianists, who held that those who failed to maintain their confession of faith under persecution would not be received again into communion with the church. This resulted in a short-lived schism in the Church of Rome that spread as each side sought to gather support. Cornelius held a synod that confirmed his election and excommunicated Novatian, but the controversy regarding lapsed members continued for years. The persecutions resumed in 251 under Emperor Trebonianus Gallus. Cornelius ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Cornelius Keg
A Cornelius keg (also known as a Corny keg or soda keg) is a stainless steel canister ( keg) originally used as containers by the soft drink industry. They can be used to store and dispense carbonated or nitrogenated liquids. Cornelius kegs were originally made by Cornelius, Inc. In the keg, fully made soda is stored under pressure just like standard cans and bottles. The soda is referred to as " premix" in the industry, as compared to "postmix" bag-in-box (BiB) packages which are concentrated syrup. BiB soda is cheaper but requires a high-quality water source and well-calibrated dispenser. Premix soda costs more and takes up more space, but can be used anywhere, and the equipment is simpler and cheaper. Once the main method of delivering and dispensing soda, today kegs are largely obsolete in the soda industry. Cornelius kegs are now widely used for homebrewed beer and other homemade beverages such as soda or nitro cold brew coffee. Description A Cornelius keg is a stain ...

John Boynton Priestley
John Boynton Priestley (; 13 September 1894 – 14 August 1984) was an English novelist, playwright, screenwriter, broadcaster and social commentator. His Yorkshire background is reflected in much of his fiction, notably in ''The Good Companions'' (1929), which first brought him to wide public notice. Many of his plays are structured around a time slip, and he went on to develop a new theory of time, with different dimensions that link past, present and future. In 1940 he broadcast a series of short propaganda radio talks, which were credited with strengthening civilian morale during the Battle of Britain. In the following years his left-wing beliefs brought him into conflict with the government and influenced the development of the welfare state. Early life Priestley was born on 13 September 1894 at 34 Mannheim Road, Manningham, which he described as an "extremely respectable" suburb of Bradford. His father, Jonathan Priestley (1868–1924), was a headmaster. His mother ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
