The Great Fire of 1879 Notre Dame
Wednesday, April 23, 1879, started out as any other spring day at Notre Dame. Taking advantage of the warm day, the Minims were out on their play yard. Around 10:00am, they were the first to notice the smoke rising from the Main Building and sounded the alarm â âCollege on fire!â Notification was sent to South Bend and a fire engine was dispatched to Notre Dame, but it arrived too late to save five of the campus buildings that were quickly consumed.  Despite several devastating fires in her past, Notre Dame was ill-prepared for such a large fire.  Even though the Main Building was equipped with water tanks, they proved futile on this fateful day.
The origins of the fire are uncertain, but many theories point to construction work being done on the pitch roof of Main Building.  As soon as the fire was discovered, students, faculty, and local townspeople scrambled to form a long bucket brigade up the six floors of the building.  Many others desperately tried to save the precious library books, museum artifacts, scientific instruments, furniture, and personal effects.  They carried many items carefully out of the buildings.  However, in the chaos, some people frantically flung things out of the windows, destroying them from the fall in an attempt to save them.  Once the wooden supports of the dome gave way, sending the one ton Mary statue plummeting through the center of the building, all chances for further recovery were abandoned.  The western winds spread the fire from Main Building, additionally destroying the infirmary, St. Francis Old Menâs Home, Music Hall, and the Minimsâ Hall.  Fortunately, Sacred Heart Church (designated a Basilica in 1992) and Luigi Gregoriâs murals were spared, as were the Presbytery, the printing presses (home of Ave Maria and Scholastic in what is now Brownson Hall), the kitchens, the steam house, and the first Washington Hall (the current one was dedicated in 1882).

On the basis of what? What crime has he committed?
Agreed, Anon. However, my bank used one of these âprogramsâ to stop someone who illegally charged my debit card. Though I am Christian, I do not celebrate Christmas, nor do I shop online using personal cards. Someone from India, via Australia began shopping on my debit card during the holidays. The program had flagged all of the purchases (based on the same variables listed for Sift) and the bank did not process any of the transactions, just left them pending. Once I contacted the bank, they simply denied the charges and replaced my debit card. I was creeped out about how much they knew about my shopping habits â to save themselves from having to cover fraudulent charges. But no money actually left my account.
All that to say, I know there is some nefariousness, I just donât know what, yetâŚ
It is possible to deny permission on the iPhone at every level, but thatâs same as you suggesting Google is not collecting the information off your Android, because you denied it permissionâŚ
That picture was taken years ago. Look at how young the girls areâŚ
Agreed, I donât celebrate any made-up holidays at all.
