This means that my usual reading lists haven't actually moved since last Wednesday, though I did read one True Confession for brain candy and have started another book related to New Work which I am coding for now. Normal service will be resumed with another trip to Central Europe over the weekend followed by a return to the Brussels commute on Monday.

On the other hand I'm now up to date with Big Finish audios, I think.

 urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nwhyte:2363634 The legacy of Neerwinden 2014-10-12T19:31:39Z 2014-10-12T19:45:27Z
Your honour remembers with concern, said the corporal, the total rout and confusion of our camp and army at the affair of Landen; every one was left to shift for himself; and if it had not been for the regiments of Wyndham, Lumley, and Galway, which covered the retreat over the bridge Neerspeeken, the king himself could scarce have gained it—he was press'd hard, as your honour knows, on every side of him—
So Corporal Trim begins one of the many rambling episodes of Tristram Shandy, which is framed by how he fell in love and diverts into whether groin or knee injuries are worse. But the Battle of Landen was no laughing matter; when the French defeated William III's army on 29 July 1693, and cam close to killing King Billy himself, around 27,000 soldiers were killed, which made it the bloodiest battle of the entire War of the League of Augsburg - which on a moderately generous reading includes both the Battle of the Boyne in 1690 and the fall of Barcelona in 1714.

In fact the battle happened not in Landen but at the nearby village of Neerwinden, which happens to be very close to where my daughter B lives, so I took her there this afternoon to have a look at it. And in a classic two-for-the-price-of-one deal, at Neerwinden you can inspect not only the site of the Battle of Neerwinden in 1693, but also the site of the Battle of Neerwinden on 18 March 1793, where the Austrians crushed a demoralised French force with the result that the defeated French commander unsuccessfully attempted a coup in Paris, and then (along with the future King Louis Philippe) defected to the Austrians who he had just been fighting. It was a smaller affair, though, with 7-8,000 casualties, less than a third of the death toll of a century earlier.

I found it really very difficult to translate the available maps of the two battles onto today's geography. These are my attempts to do so, maps found from the internet on the left, my attempts to interpret them on the right, French in blue and their opponents in red in both my maps, and in the orignal 1693 map (confusingly, the French are red and the Austrians yellow in the 1793 map):

1693

1793

The shaded contours on the older maps bear very little relevance to what's on the ground. What does become clear is that the triangular plateau to the north of Neerwinden, with the town at its apex, is the strategically important target; it was the territory that William III and his allies were defending in 1693, and was the contested ground between the French and Austrians a century later. At the same time it's interesting to see how the tides of history wash in different directions at different times - from south to north in 1693, from east to west in 1793.

It is a typically flat Flemish landscape ("mijn vlakke land") with a very few gentle rises. The only thing really worth photographing is the Chapel of the Holy Cross, on the eastern edge of the plateau.It has an explanatory noticeboard hinting at the enormity of what happened here.

There is a sheltered grove around the chapel demarcated by the Stations of the Cross, with a park bench in which B (who likes to wear her hood up in all weathers) sat happily, refusing to move.

Within the chapel (which I'm sorry to say has been repeatedly vandalised), worshippers have left votive offerings and intentions.

In the summer of 1694, Lord Perth travelled across the scene of the battle, and in a letter to his sister - later quoted by Macaulay - was the first person that I know of to use a simile that has become very familiar, 220 years before John McCrae:

In Neerwinden itself, an ancient standing stone has been moved to the front of the modern 1950s church, and although there is also an official somewhat brutal war memorial, it is the older obelisk that the locals have chosen to place their poppies at; perhaps because, here of all places, it was not only the wars of the twentieth century that marked the people and the land, and a monument without a date, which was erected by people long forgotten except in their attempt to express the inexpressible, is more appropriate to commemorate the trauma of past conflict than one whose initial reference point is 1914.

Peter Lorre (Ugarte): born László Löwenstein, in what is now Slovakia; became a film star in 1920s Berlin; being a Jew, moved to America in 1933 after Nazis took power.	Conrad Veidt (Strasser) - started acting in films 1916, married a Jew and moved to America in 1933 after Nazis took power.

Paul Henreid (Laszlo) - left Austria for England in 1935 after Dollfuss/Schuschnigg regime came to power; left England for USA to avoid detention as enemy alien in England (though Conrad Veidt spoke out for him).	Curt Bois (Pickpocket) - Jewish, left Germany in 1934 after Nazis took power.

Madeleine LeBeau and Marcel Dalio (Yvonne and Emil the croupier) - married in 1940 and fled Paris after the German invasion; Dalio was Jewish. He filed for divorce during the filming of Casablanca. She is the only surviving member of the cast.

S.Z. Sakall (Carl the head waiter) - born a Hungarian Jew, became a Berlin film star in the 1920s, returned to Hungary in 1933 after Nazis took power, moved to America in 1940 after Hungary joined the Axis. All three of his sisters and his niece, as well as his wife's brother and sister, died in concentration camps.	Helmut Dantine (Jan the Bulgarian roulette player) - Austrian anti-Nazi activist who was imprisoned in a concentration camp after the Anschluss in 1938; his parents got him released and sent to America, but they themselves died in concentration camps.

Leonid Kinskey (Sascha) and Gregory Gaye (banker) - both born in St Petersburg, and fled the Russian revolution.

This all may help explain why this scene is quite so powerful:

Smartphones and email have completely changed how we communicate. The scene where Laura's parents are talking to each other, and Sherriff Truman arrves to tell Leland what has happened, is the most memorable of many framings which depend on land lines being the only method of telecommunication available. And the film of Donna and Laura dancing would now be recorded on one of their phones.

The sequence of the news of Laura's death spreading in the schoolis very effective - the empty chair, the howls of anguish, the principal's voice choking with emotion. It is then undermined in plot terms when we discover that Ronnette had also gone missing without the same fuss being made.

They are all rather beautiful, aren't they! And the air crackles with sexual tension - Andy and Lucy appear to be the only couple with nothing to hide. But Audrey is surprisingly unlikeable at this early stage. And the bloke who plays Leo can't act for toffee.

Best quote for me:

Agent Cooper: Who's the lady with the log?
Sheriff Truman: We call her the log lady. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nwhyte:2362401 Wednesday reading 2014-10-08T21:00:54Z 2014-10-08T21:29:30Z Current

No such luck; it's a gritty account of the 1340s war between England and France, with our dashing hero, whose humble birth belies his noble blood; the women who love him; the bad guy who attempts to thwart him at every stage; and his quest for a sacred relic which turns out to be just a piece of wood. There is a lot of sexual violence, and the gallant English win most of the battles.

 urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nwhyte:2361233 September Books 17) Eva, by Peter Dickinson 2014-10-05T05:55:25Z 2014-10-05T05:55:25Z I was moved to get this by Jo Walton's review on Tor.com, five years ago I now realise; I had no idea that it was one of Dickinson's best known books *"80% of my mail, almost all of it from the USA, is about this one book"); I know him for The Green Gene and Annerton Pit and Tulku and King and Joker and The Changes (of which I saw the first episode again at Worldcon).

It is a good take on a familiar sfnal theme, of a human mind transplanted into another body - H.L. Gold had his hero transplanted into a dog in 1939, and there's always I Will Fear No Evil, in which a rich man's brain is transplanted into his secretary's body and hilarity ensues. Dickinson's teenage protagonist wakes up to find that to save her life, her parents have transplanted her mind into the body of one of her father's experimental chimpanzees, in a near future world which is facing environmental disaster. She is caught up in the wider politics of what has happened to her, the actual ethics of the operation (and of repeating it) and the intersection of financial and political interests in what happens to the chimpanzees as the research money runs out, and has to find her own way between asserting her humanity and embracing her new chimpanzee nature, including sex and death. Some of it, of course, is a metaphor for growing up, but all of it is rather good, and I'm glad I followed up on this recommendation. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nwhyte:2360960 Links I found interesting for 03-10-2014 2014-10-03T07:00:02Z 2014-10-03T07:00:02Z

 urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nwhyte:2359996 Think of the Children! Reading Anna Karenina in translation 2014-10-01T05:06:19Z 2014-10-01T05:26:44Z Some chums and I have got together on Facebook to read Anna Karenina over the next few months, at a chapter a day (they are mostly quite short chapters, so this will take us a while). We are doing it in English, as not enough of us are sufficiently fluent i Russian to tackle the original. This useful page gives various different translations of the first chapter to compare, and I think it's very helpful. For instance, the famous opening sentence, "Все счастливые семьи похожи друг на друга, каждая несчастливая семья несчастлива по-своему", is done by the different versions as follows:
Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
(Constance Garnett, 1901)

All happy families resemble one another, each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
(Louise and Aylmer Maude, 1918)

All happy families are alike but an unhappy family is unhappy after its own fashion.
(Rosemary Edmonds, 1949-50)

All happy families resemble one another, but each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
(The Maude translation revised)

All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
(Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, 2008)

All happy families are alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
(Kyril Zinovieff and Jenny Hughes, 2008)
No huge difference between any of those; the sentiment is pretty clear, and the fact that there are no actual verbs in the Russian sentence means that it cannot be translated with quite the same ring into languages that do use verbs in sentences like this.

But I was struck by the weirdness of my cheap Constance Garnett translation's version of a phrase in the middle of the next paragraph, which describes what is happening in the Oblonsky household as a result of Dolly discovering Stiva's affair, and comparison with other translations indicated that she had got it wrong:
Дети бегали по всему дому, как потерянные

The children ran wild all over the house
(Constance Garnett, 1901)

the children ran about all over the house uneasily
(Louise and Aylmer Maude, 1918)

The children strayed all over the house, not knowing what to do with themselves.
(Rosemary Edmonds, 1949-50)

the children ran restlessly about the house
(The Maude translation revised)

The children were running all over the house as if lost
(Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, 2008)

The children were wandering about the house like lost souls
(Kyril Zinovieff and Jenny Hughes, 2008)
There's a tension here between бегать, imperfective of "to run", and потерянный, "lost", which goes back to the original text. (And also по всему дому, "through the whole house", which shows that they are not lost but know where they are.) I think I end up with an image of the kids, both energised and emotionally uprooted by their parents' row, running around the house as if they didn't know where they were. I like Zinovieff and Hughes' "lost souls", but it maybe pushes it a bit far and they have toned down "running" to "wandering". Edmonds goes in the same direction but not so far, and helpfully unpacks "lost". Garnett's "ran wild" is clearly much further from the original sense, though - "wild" brings in a whole new idea which simply isn't in Tolstoy.

So I think I will switch to one of the more recent translations, though not quite sure which.

MHI licenses deck machinery manufacture & marketing to Imabari Shipbuilding to expland its share of MHI technology-based products
Through licensing, MHI aims to expand market share of deck machinery based on the company's technology and, at the same time, respond to requests from Imabari, which looks to enhance business through deck machinery production. The production of licensed machinery is scheduled to be started in April 2013.
Deck machinery mainly consists in this instance of anchor windlasses and mooring winches. MHI manufactured its first deck machinery in 1962. The company's deck machinery has built up a solid delivery track record and has won high reputation from customers for their high reliability, and durability.
Imabari Shipbuilding is Japan's largest shipbuilder, with the highest new ship building tonnage and ship sales, building various types of ship.
Hydraulic pumps and motors, which drive the equipment, will be supplied by MHI. Imabari plans to build the deck machinery at the shop in Dalian Imaoka Shipbuilding Co., Ltd., a ship block manufacture plant that Imabari has established in Dalian, China.

A Sociologist Covers The News
June 07, 2010
Chris Beam's well-received piece imagining a news article written by political scientists has inspired Conor Friedersdorf to imagine a news article written by sociologists: NEW ORLEANS — Absent from the dialogue surrounding the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, which began on April 20, 2010 following an explosion that killed eleven workers, are the roles of class, race and especially gender.
A Disaster Worse Than Katrina
June 04, 2010
The Deepwater Horizon oil spill, now deemed the worst in American history, may inflict more damage to the future of New Orleans than Hurricane Katrina. In a matter of days, Katrina and the levee failure wiped out the physical and social fabric of many communities. Across the Gulf Coast, more than 1 million people were displaced from their homes and another estimated 1,400 persons lost their lives to the disaster. In New Orleans, the severe flooding destroyed more than 134,000 homes, wreaked havoc to public and private infrastructure, disrupted businesses, and severed generations of family and
Kenneth the Page Becomes a Man
May 28, 2010
True conservatives have never known exactly what to think of Bobby Jindal. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Republicans praised Louisiana's newly elected governor as just the kind of energetic technocrat the state needed to get back on its feet. They were impressed by his youth, his intelligence, and, yes, his background (he's Indian-American)—and they eagerly started talking him up for higher office. But then came his disastrous response to President Obama's State of the Union in 2009, after which GOPers mercilessly mocked the governor for the same dorky qualities they once cheered.
Bad Company
May 27, 2010
WASHINGTON—So who is in charge of stopping the oil spill, BP or the federal government? The fact that the answer to this question seems as murky as the water around the exploded oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico suggests that this is an excellent moment to recognize that our arguments pitting capitalism against socialism and the government against the private sector muddle far more than they clarify. There are many tragic ironies bubbling to the surface along with the oil. Consider the situation of Gov.
How They Did It
May 21, 2010
When the president and his closest advisers huddled in the Oval Office last August, they had every reason to panic. Their signature piece of legislation, comprehensive health care reform, was mired in the Senate Finance Committee and the public was souring on it. Unemployment was on the march, and all this talk about preexisting conditions and insurance exchanges barely registered above the Fox News pundits screaming, "Death panel!" Suddenly, health care reform was under attack everywhere—even in the West Wing. All week, the group had debated whether to scale back the reform effort.
The Crisis Comes Ashore
May 21, 2010
The continuing undersea gusher of oil 50 miles off the shores of Louisiana is not the only source of dangerous uncontrolled pollution spewing into the environment. Worldwide, the amount of man-made CO2 being spilled every three seconds into the thin shell of atmosphere surrounding the planet equals the highest current estimate of the amount of oil spilling from the Macondo well every day.
Removing the Nuts
May 17, 2010
Charlie Crist has fled the GOP. John McCain has sold his maverick soul. Bob Bennett just got throttled by conservatives. Michele Bachmann is occasionally taken seriously.
The Climate Bill's Delicate Offshore Drilling Compromise
May 12, 2010
As expected, the Kerry-Lieberman climate bill will give states incentives to expand offshore oil and gas drilling. (See Subtitle B here.) That's not too surprising. Kerry is still gunning for votes from conservatives like Louisiana's Mary Landrieu or South Carolina Republican Lindsey Graham, and expanded offshore drilling is one way of enticing them. But there are also a lot of adamant drilling skeptics out there, like Florida's Bill Nelson. So how did Kerry thread this particular needle? Here's how the bill would work.
Is The Press Undercovering The Oil Spill? A Historical Look
May 11, 2010
Reading through The New York Times every day, it can seem like the press has been covering the Gulf disaster obsessively. Indeed, some fishermen in Louisiana are now worried that the media is too focused on the oil spill—to the point where it could harm business even in unaffected areas. But how does all this coverage compare historically? I asked Drexel sociologist Robert Brulle for his thoughts, and he put together some fascinating data.
Oil Spill Not Changing Many Minds In Congress
May 10, 2010
So is the Gulf spill actually changing anyone's mind about offshore drilling? It depends where you're looking. In Florida, sure, it is. A handful of conservative state legislators have recently been rethinking their pro-drilling stance. Charlie Crist, who's running for the U.S. Senate, is now rethinking drilling. And, as Brad Johnson notes, GOP State Rep. Greg Evers was once a huge fan of putting up new rigs right near the Florida panhandle shore. Post-spill, though, he's starting to think the risk to the state's beaches isn't worth it: "You have to understand: this is our way of life.

From the writer of "The Seven Percent Solution" comes one of the most ingenious thrillers of our time! When famed 19th Century scholar, author and inventor H.G. Wells (Malcolm McDowell) reveals his new invention, a time machine, little does he realize that he has opened an escape route for one of history's most evil criminal geniuses, Jack The Ripper. Forced to make a sudden and daring journey 86 years into the future, Wells finds himself in the middle of downtown San Francisco in 1979. He is thrust into an alien and apparently hostile environment where he must race against the clock to stop this diabolic menace from continuing his reign of terror.

In Case You Got More Than Four Hours Of Sleep, Here's The Blackhawks 3OT Goal in the Stanley Cup Finals
In the fifth longest Stanley Cup Finals game of all-time, the Blackhawks sealed a 1-0 series lead with Andrew Shaw's game-winner. The goal came 12 minutes into the third overtime period at midnight local time.
It was a stroke of luck for the Blackhawks as it came via a shot from Michal Rozsival deflected off of Dave Bolland's stick into Andrew Shaw's leg and under Bruin's goalie Tuukka Rask's outstretched arm. That's less of a goal and more of a Rube Goldberg machine.
The goal illistrates the randomness of sports. We can say all we want that the Blackhawks had a ton of "grit" because they flung a piece of rubber at a net for a double deflection goal, but is it true? Championships are rarely built on one team completely dominating another, the sporting gods usually have to smile upon a team once or twice. Last night, the proverbial hockey coin flipped the Blackhawks' way and we'll see if that edge is enough to carry them to Lord Stanley's Cup.
There's an old Chinese proverb that says: you can lead a hockey player to a microphone, but you can't teach him to not swear into the microphone.

NHL: Bruins' Shawn Thornton suspended 15 games for Brooks Orpik attack
Thornton went after Orpik during a stoppage in play, slew-footing him to the ice and punching him twice in the head.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
NEW YORK—Bruins tough guy Shawn Thornton has been suspended 15 games for punching and injuring unsuspecting Penguins defenceman Brooks Orpik, which the NHL considered an "act of retribution."
Thornton went after Orpik during a stoppage in play, slew-footing him to the ice and punching him twice in the head. Orpik suffered a concussion and was taken off the ice on a stretcher and transported to the hospital.
Earlier, Orpik hit Boston winger Loui Eriksson, knocking him out of the game with a concussion. NHL vice-president of player safety Brendan Shanahan pointed to the two-minute roughing penalty Thornton received for trying to get Orpik to fight as a sign of premeditation.
"This cannot be described as a hockey play that went bad, nor do we consider this a spontaneous reaction to an incident that just occurred," Shanahan said in the video announcing the longest regular-season suspension during his tenure as the league's disciplinarian. "It is our view that this was an act of retribution for an incident that occurred earlier in the game, the result of this action by Thornton was a serious injury to Orpik."
Orpik has not played since the game, which was Dec. 7 at TD Garden in Boston, and is on injured reserve. He is still experiencing concussion-like symptoms and took part in a light skating session for the first time Friday.
Thornton has already served three games of this ban and will miss his fourth Saturday night when the Bruins visit the Vancouver Canucks. He is eligible to return Jan. 11 when the Bruins face the San Jose Sharks.
"We take a lot of pride in making sure that everybody knows they're important on our team, and Shawn's been a real good player for us," Bruins coach Claude Julien told reporters in Vancouver before the suspension was handed down. "Him missing in our lineup, we've lost a little bit of his leadership. We've lost his presence as far as what his line brings to us."
The suspension comes after Thornton's in-person hearing with the department of player safety Friday in New York.
Thornton's agent, Anton Thun, said in an email to The Canadian Press that no decision had been made whether to appeal the suspension. It is the only one longer than 10 games that Shanahan has given since taking this position in June of 2011.
Thornton forfeits $84,615.45 (U.S.) in salary as a result of the suspension, his first disciplinary action during his NHL career.
"That is meaningful compensation to him, and he's contrite and all that stuff," general manager Peter Chiarelli said earlier this week.
Pens forward James Neal was suspended for five games earlier this week for kneeing Brad Marchand in the head during the same game.
The 36-year-old from Oshawa, Ont., has three goals and 41 penalty minutes in 27 games this season.

Federal File
House Panel Hits Election-Time Trips
In the months leading up to the 2006 congressional and gubernatorial elections, Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings traveled 19 times to give a boost to Republican candidates, including lawmakers facing tough re-election bids, according to a draft report released last week by Democrats on the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee.
Secretary Spellings wasn't the only Bush administration official to make such trips. The report found that from Jan. 1 until Election Day on Nov. 7 of that year, such officials took part in 306 events with GOP contenders suggested by the White House political-affairs office. Secretary of Commerce Carlos M. Gutierrez made the most appearances with Republican candidates, the report says, with 59 stops.
Republicans on the House committee contend that such appearances are routine, no matter which party controls the executive branch.
The Democrats' report shows that Ms. Spellings found her way to at least three tight races in the final weeks of the campaign. ("Federal Officials Find Their Way to Tight Races," Nov. 1, 2006.)
In October 2006, she visited Rep. Steve Chabot, R-Ohio, in his Cincinnati district. Ms. Spellings and Rep. Chabot toured the Cincinnati Zoo Academy, a charter school located at the city's zoo, where the secretary talked about the need to bolster the rigor of mathematics and science courses. He retained his seat, taking 52 percent of the vote.
Secretary Spellings also visited Rep. Heather Wilson's New Mexico district, where she highlighted new federal financial aid for students who have taken a rigorous high school curriculum. Rep. Wilson ended up keeping her seat, with just over 50 percent of the vote. Ms. Spellings also held a roundtable discussion on the No Child Left Behind Act in Rep. Chris Chocola's Indiana district. He ultimately was defeated.
"Secretary Spellings participates in official events across the country with both Democratic and Republican leaders," said Samara Yudof, a spokeswoman for the Department of Education. "There are long-standing rules on Cabinet members' participation in political events," she said, "and we follow those rules."

With more than 8,000 confirmed, suspected and probable cases of Ebola and nearly 4,000 deaths, mainly in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, the impact of this Ebola outbreak far surpasses all previous outbreaks registered since the disease was identified in 1976. But what type of crisis is this? Is this just another humanitarian crisis in a year unusually crowded with emergencies, or is it also a serious crisis of humanitarian governance?

Body of Missing Hiker Found in Grand Canyon National Park
Contact: Shannan Marcak, 928-638-7958
Grand Canyon, Ariz. – A body, presumptively identified as 69 year old Robert (Bob) A. Williams, was found today by park search and rescue personnel in the Hermit Basin area of Grand Canyon National Park.
On May 26, park rangers received a report that Mr. Williams was overdue from his Memorial Day weekend plans which had included hiking in Grand Canyon National Park. On May 27, after finding Mr. Williams' vehicle on the South Rim, park rangers began searching a broad area—from Hermit Basin to the South Kaibab area—that could easily be accessed on foot or via shuttle from the point where Mr. Williams' vehicle was found. On May 29, park rangers were able to narrow their search to the Hermit Basin area based on information received after issuing a public request for assistance to anyone who had hiked in the park's backcountry during the Memorial Day weekend.
On Monday, June 1, search personnel were once again in the Hermit Basin, using a spotting scope to check difficult to access scree slopes and cliff areas. Based on information received from the spotters, search crews today investigated an area ¼ mile south of Santa Maria springs. At approximately 10:00 a.m., searchers found Mr. Williams' body located approximately 200 feet below the Hermit Trail.
The remains were transported by helicopter to the South Rim helibase where they were transferred to the Coconino County Medical Examiner.
