Katherine E. Price, Countess of the Holy Roman Church was an American philanthropist and patroness of various Catholic institutions.
She was ennobled in 1936 by Pope Pius XI, and became a papal countess.
Price was the wife of Lucian B.
Price.
After her husband's death she became an active philanthropist, funding the construction of Catholic churches, schools, and other institutions in the United States.
She was a distant cousin of Bishop Eugene J. McGuinness.
A patroness of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Amarillo, Price donated funds to St. George's College to prevent the school from closing.
It was renamed the Price Memorial College in honor of her late husband.
Price traveled from her home in Greenwich, Connecticut to Texas for the dedication ceremony.
Price was also responsible for funding the construction of St. Elizabeth's Catholic Church in Lubbock, Texas, St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Church in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma, and St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Church in Wake Forest, North Carolina.
The latter two churches were named after Price's patron saint, Catherine of Siena.
In April 1936 Price was elevated into the Nobility of the Holy See and made a papal countess by Pope Pius XI.

Talkin' to Myself Again
"Talkin' to Myself Again" is a song written by Jamie O'Hara that was originally recorded by American country artist Tammy Wynette.
It was released as a single in November 1987 and became a top 20 hit on the "Billboard" country songs chart.
"Talkin' to Myself gain" was recorded in March 1987 in Nashville, Tennessee.
The recording session included additional tracks that would later appear on Wynette's 1987 album.
Although not officially credited on the single release, it featured harmony vocals from The O'Kanes.
The session included several other notable artists performing on background vocals as well.
The session was produced by Steve Buckingham.
The song reached number 16 on the "Billboard" Hot Country Singles chart.
"Talkin' to Myself Again" became Wynette's second single to become a major hit since 1985's "Sometimes When We Touch".
It was released on her 1987 studio album "Higher Ground".
Dendromaia
Dendromaia is an extinct genus of varanopid from the Carboniferous of Nova Scotia.
It contains a single species, Dendromaia unamakiensis.
"Dendromaia" is the oldest known varanopid and the only member of the family to be discovered in Nova Scotia.
Known from a large partial skeleton preserved with its tail wrapped around a much smaller partial skeleton, "Dendromaia" may also represent the oldest known occurrence of parental care in the fossil record.
While the larger skeleton possessed certain mycterosaurine-like features, the smaller skeleton resembled basal varanopids such as "Archaeovenator" and "Pyozia", creating uncertainty over whether characteristics at the base of Varanopidae have legitimate phylogenetic significance or instead reflect the immaturity of basal varanopid specimens.
"Dendromaia unamakiensis" is known from a slab and counterslab containing two skeletons.
The specimen, NSM017GF020.001, was discovered in a petrified lycopod stump at Point Aconi on Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia.
This site is part of the Sydney Mines Formation, which is dated to the late Moscovian stage of the Carboniferous period, 309-306 million years ago.
""Dendromaia"" roughly translates to "the mother in the tree", according to its discovery in a stump and proposed parental care.
The specific name references Unama'kik, the Mi'kmaq name for Cape Breton Island.
The genus and species were described by Hillary Maddin, Arjan Mann, and Brian Hebert in 2019.
Hebert had discovered the specimen in 2017.
The two skeletons had different sizes and preserved different areas, with the larger skeleton (designated the holotype) incorporating a large portion of the rear half of the body and the smaller skeleton (designated the paratype) including a skull and only fragments of the postcranium, 1/4th the size of the larger one.
These skeletons were inferred to represent two individuals of a single new taxon based on their similar overlapping anatomy, apparent varanopid ancestry, close association, and the fact that there are no other varanopids known from Nova Scotia.
The 6 preserved dorsal vertebrae of the larger skeleton were among the most characteristic bones in the animal.
They shared several traits with "Mycterosaurus", such as tall rectangular neural spines with slight depressions at their base.
However, the rib facets at the tip of the transverse processes were not vertical, but instead oriented diagonally.
Like other non-varanodontine varanopids, the lower edge of each centrum had a rounded keel.
10 incomplete caudal vertebrae preserved on the counterpart were elongated and had low neural spines.
Holocephalous (single-headed) ribs and "Heleosaurus"-like gastralia were also present, though osteoderms were seemingly absent.
The plate-like bones composing the pelvis were not fused to each other, and "Dendromaia" had a large pubic foramen like that of "Heleosaurus".
The femur was lightly-built and twisted, similar to mycterosaurines.
The rest of the leg and foot was present but incomplete.
The larger specimen may have been 20 to 30 centimeters (7.9-12 inches) long from the tip of the snout to the base of the tail, and its full tail length is unknown but likely elongated.
The small skeleton's poorly-preserved skull was triangular and pointed like those of "Archaeovenator", "Pyozia", and "Heleosaurus".
It had thin, curved teeth on the maxilla (without a canine region) and smaller teeth on the palate, which also possessed a varanopid-like pterygoid and cultriform process.
Isolated hyoid bones were also identifiable.
Like the larger skeleton, the small skeleton's vertebrae had a rounded keel on their underside.
It also possessed several limb bone fragments, including a twisted humerus.
"Dendromaia" is the oldest member of a family of amniotes known as varanopids.
Varanopids are traditionally considered early synapsids (part of the lineage of amniotes leading to mammals), although some studies alternatively propose that they are diapsid reptiles related to "Orovenator".
The describers of "Dendromaia" prefer a position for varanopids among synapsids, citing both biological characteristics (parental care) and arguing that traits which link varanopids to diapsids may be based on oversampling of juvenile specimens at the base of Varanopidae.
To investigate the position of "Dendromaia" among other varanopids, the describers adapted a phylogenetic analysis matrix previously utilized by Brocklehurst & Fröbisch (2018).
The resulting strict consensus tree (average result of most parsimonious trees) of the parsimony analysis placed "Dendromaia" in a polytomy near the base of Varanopidae, along with "Pyozia" and a clade which forks into Varanodontinae and Mycterosaurinae.
The Bayesian analysis recovers a similar result, albeit with the polytomy resolved, placing "Dendromaia" as the sister taxon to "Pyozia".
The following cladogram is based on the results of the Bayesian analysis in Maddin, Mann, & Hebert (2019):
The delicate preservation of the skeletons indicated that they likely died and were quickly buried at the same place and time.
They were positioned with the smaller skeleton encircled by the tail of the larger skeleton.
These taphonomic qualities led the paleontologists who described them to propose that the two skeletons were denning together under the roots of a lycopod tree, with the smaller skeleton likely representing the offspring of the larger skeleton.
This may be the oldest fossil evidence of parental care, predating the previously oldest evidence, an aggregation of varanopids from the Permian of South Africa which may represent their own species ("Microvaranops parentis") or specimens of "Heleosaurus scholtzi".
On the other hand, it remains a possibility that the two skeletons were not close relatives, and instead simply sheltered from a storm in the same stump.
The anatomy of the juvenile "Dendromaia" skeleton is remarkably similar to that of basal varanopids such as "Archaeovenator" and "Pyozia", indicating that these genera may be based on juvenile specimens of larger varanopids.
Likewise, certain characteristics (such as reduced dentition and limb development) found to link basal varanopids with diapsids may be a consequence of juvenile specimen sampling, rather than valid phylogenetic signals.

At the Foot of the Mountain Theater
At the Foot of the Mountain Theater (AFOM) was a Professional theater based in Minneapolis, Minnesota that created and produced works centered on women's lives.
Founded in 1974 and re-dedicated as a feminist theatre in 1977, it produced unique works on wide-ranging topics both in local productions and also through touring and performances at theater festivals.
At the Foot of the Mountain Theater closed in 1991.
Founded by Martha and Paul Boesing, and Jan Magrane in 1974, At the Foot of the Mountain grew out of their experiences with experimental theater including at The Open Theater in New York City and Firehouse Theater in the 1960s in Minneapolis.
Boesing's involvement in the theater ended temporarily in 1984 when she accepted an 18-month Bush Fellowship to focus on her playwriting.
The collective's tasks included the shows themselves, but also the rest of the logistics—publicity, costumes, finances; within a non-hierarchical consensus-based structure.
"There are no role models," said Boesing—who was also the playwright for the first 10 years—in an 1979 interview.
Audience participation also was a critical ingredient throughout the theater's work.
AFOM was able to pay its members a regular amount each week, so that AFOM could be their primary focus.
Funding came from a combination of ticket sales, touring, and grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Regional Arts Council, the Northwest Area Foundation and the Minnesota Humanities Commission.
At the Foot of the Mountain mainly operated out of the People’s Center on the West Bank of the University of Minnesota, and produced 1–4 works each year.
Generally, each work was a collective effort, with the script being written internally in collaboration with the cast.
Production of "Antigone Too: Rites of Love and Defiance" was based on a script that included much of Sophocles' text, plus the stories of 17 American women involved in politics including Dorothy Day, Emma Goldman, Margaret Sanger and Fannie Lou Hamer.
The 21-member cast, selected from 50 applicants, worked on the production over an eight-week residency.
At the Foot of the Mountain's topics were diverse, including prostitution, motherhood, nuclear stockpiling, the Catholic church, rape culture, U.S. involvement in Nicaragua and prison reform.
"Haunted by the Holy Ghost" a 1983 production—written by co-founder and collective member Jan Magrane—was a direct statement on the inherent oppressiveness of the Catholic Church.
Negative responses included the Minneapolis City Council declining to pass a resolution commending the theater for its 10-year contribution to the city, and an inquiry by the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights into Minnesota State Arts Board funding of At the Foot of the Mountain, claiming the work was defamatory, and requesting that future funding be restricted.
