After death, the priest and scribe supervised. (12)

Administered ?
After death = Ad ( Anno Domini )
Priest = minister
Scribe = Ed ( editor )
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming βWow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

Yes, you solved it Pete. Here's your first place medallion : π

Doesn't Anno Domini mean "Year of the Lord"?
Iβve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Thank you! I tried - I even hastily threw my answer up before going back to edit in the definition, but Pete was just too foxy for me!

Edit
I meant Randor, Landor is a dodgy pub in Brixton

Despite all of my years practice, every now and again, even now, there are still times where it feels like WPF hates me! 
Right now my custom ListBox subclass that I am editing for the n-th times really behave.. like it shouldn't!!!
Why, oh why doth you hateth me so?!

While sitting in my gloom, a voice came to me.
"Cheer up, things could be worse"
So, I cheered up.
Things got worse.

"Custom" ListBox ... there's the problem.
"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

Because it's WPF. WPF is a great example of how your (or anyone's) years of practice is an exercise WPF telling you "no", "no", "sort of", "no", "no", "ok in this custom scenario but don't expect it to behave the same if you make one little tweak."
At least that was my experience. I gave up on WPF pretty much at the get-go because it kept telling me "no" far too often.

Haha.. I didn't suffer that much...
But come to think about it.. I am pretty sure I hit a few WPF bug over the years that I had to work around.... Always frustrating!
