Archdeacon of Birmingham
The Archdeacon of Birmingham is a senior ecclesiastical officer within the Diocese of Birmingham.
The archdeaconry was created within the Diocese of Worcester by Order-in-Council on 12 August 1892 (substantially from the Archdeaconry of Coventry but also from a small part of the Worcester archdeaconry)[1] but became part of the new Diocese of Birmingham upon its creation by Order-in-Council on 13 January 1905.[2]
The Archdeacon is responsible for the disciplinary supervision of the clergy[3] within the seven area deaneries: Central Birmingham, Edgbaston, Handsworth, Kings Norton, Moseley, Shirley, and Warley.
The current archdeacon is Jenny Tomlinson.[4].

gollark: Thanks!
gollark: I think this is technically possible to implement, so bee⁻¹ you.
gollark: This is underspecified because bee² you, yes.
gollark: All numbers are two's complement because bee you.
gollark: The rest of the instruction consists of variable-width (for fun) target specifiers. The first N target specifiers in an operation are used as destinations and the remaining ones as sources. N varies per opcode. They can be of the form `000DDD` (pop/push from/to stack index DDD), `001EEE` (peek stack index EEE if source, if destination then push onto EEE if it is empty), `010FFFFFFFF` (8-bit immediate value FFFFFFFF; writes are discarded), `011GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG` (16-bit immediate value GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG; writes are also discarded), `100[H 31 times]` (31-bit immediate because bee you), `101IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII` (16 bits of memory location relative to the base memory address register of the stack the operation is conditional on), `110JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ` (16 bit memory location relative to the top value on that stack instead), `1111LLLMMM` (memory address equal to base memory address of stack LLL plus top of stack MMM), or `1110NNN` (base memory address register of stack MMM).Opcodes (numbered from 0 in order): MOV (1 source, as many destinations as can be parsed validly; the value is copied to all of them), ADD (1 destination, multiple sources), JMP (1 source), NOT (same as MOV), WR (write to output port; multiple sources, first is port number), RE (read from input port; one source for port number, multiple destinations), SUB, AND, OR, XOR, SHR, SHL (bitwise operations), MUL, ROR, ROL, NOP, MUL2 (multiplication with two outputs).
