The Old Contemptibles
The Old Contemptibles
Osprey Publishing, Paperback, 9780850458985, 64pp.
Publication Date: May 25, 1989
Osprey's study of British forces from the time of the Second Boer War (1899-1902) up to World War I (1914-1918). On 19 August 1914 Kaiser Wilhelm II ordered General von Kluck, commanding the German First Army, to 'exterminate the treacherous English and walk over General French's contemptible little Army'. The 'Old Contemptibles' adopted the aspersion like a treasured regimental title, their subsequent successes earning them a more accurate evaluation as 'the best trained, best organised and best equipped British Army that ever went forth to war'. This book examines the history, organization and uniforms of the British Expeditionary Force of the early 20th century. The text is accompanied by numerous illustrations, including maps, photographs, and colour plates.
Michael Barthorp was educated at Wellington College and was commissioned into the Rifle Brigade in 1946. Demobilized in 1948, he served as a Territorial with the Royal Hampshire Regiment before rejoining the Regular Army in the Northamptonshire Regiment to continue a family tradition, ending his career with the Royal Anglian Regiment in 1968. He has since published numerous books on the history and costume of the British Army, including nine titles for the Men-at-Arms series. He lives in Jersey, Channel Islands.

When times are tough who is the real criminal?
This classic from the writer of The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui, The Caucasian Chalk Circle and Mother Courage is brought bang up-to-date and given an anarchic twist in this exciting new production.
Imagine a world where evil goes unpunished and lowly souls remain on the poverty line. London's most notorious criminal, Macheath, has recently married Polly, the daughter of Jonathan Peachum, leader of the beggars.
With well-known songs such as 'Mack the Knife' and 'Pirate Jenny', and live music played on stage by the actors themselves, this is one riotous show you'll be begging to see!
Show starts at 7:45pm - we will meet at 7pm for a drink beforehand.
If we get enough people, we can book in a block and get the group rate which is a substantial discount, probably around £13 each.
Please only RSVP if you are sure you want to come and will be able to pay me in advance for your ticket.

Really interesting evening - glad to have seen this show - some amazing talent! Met some really nice people and chatted during the interval and afterwards in the bar. Unfortunately didn't catch anyone's names - but great to see you! :) Thanks Adrian - it can't be easy organising these events - but a great success.

Hi Thanks for organising it. I love the play. It was kind of bleak and dark but I like things like that and the music hall style bawdiness and songs lifted it up. Sorry couldn't really say goodbye to anyone but had to rush off to catch my bus due to late finish.
This is the 2nd Brecht play I've seen and they were both brilliant, so maybe I'm now a Brecht fan

Went straight from work and killed time reading my book. Then went in to see the play. Found the bit before the beginning a bit rowdy. The second half of the play was by far better than the first. There was a man from the Meetup group next to me. I spoke to him briefly then took off to catch my bus.

We went to Le Volpi e l'Uva—barely a stone's throw from Ponte Vecchio, but an oasis from the tourist madness—because an Italian colleague recommended it as a nice place to get a crisp glass of Italian wine, along with some expert advice, before dinner. We got the glass of wine—a Verdicchio for us both—and the advice, and a plate of Tuscan charcuterie to go with. And then we decided that we were so happy with the wine and the advice and the food that we'd make our dinner there, as we did with another lovely glass of wine—Colli Orientali Friulano—and a plate of smoked trout. The discovery and the oasis and the wine and the food all made for a perfect evening.

I took him and his younger brother to a local ski hill and we went to the rope tow. Avery's brother waited at the bottom of the rope tow and I took Avery up for his first run. He was a natural! I started skiing down with him and he asked me to 'let him do it'...and do it he did! He started skiing, made a few turns and stopped at the bottom. I turned my back to get his brother going, and Avery grabbed the rope tow and went back up on his own! All day he skied the tow, with me helping his younger brother. Avery did not require any assistance the rest of the day, until we went on the chairlift for the first time, and again, after the first try, he 'had it' and was on independantly skiing and loading the chair!

Care for a shot of hand sanitizer? Apparently, a growing number of American teenagers do — and the odd but deadly new habit has already landed a number of them in hospital emergency rooms in Los Angeles this month.
The new trend has alarmed local public health officials so much that they held a press conference on April 24 at the Children's Hospital in Los Angeles, California.
The health experts say six teenagers have shown up in two San Fernando Valley emergency rooms in the last few months with alcohol poisoning after drinking hand sanitizer. But the experts say Los Angeles teenagers have only caught on more recently — it has been a national trend for the last few years.
While there were 16 countywide cases reported to California's Poison Control since March 1, there have been over 2,000 cases in California since 2010, Dr. Cyrus Rangan, a pediatric medical toxicologist with Children's Hospital, told reporters at the press conference. Dr. Rangan is also director of the Los Angeles county Department of Public Health's Toxic Epidemiology Program
But why of all things, hand sanitizers? Liquid sanitizers are cheap and accessible to underage teens, says Helen Arbogast, an injury prevention coordinator for Children's Hospital. It contains 62-percent ethyl alcohol — which becomes 120-proof after distillation.
"That's like drinking several shots of hard liquor," Dr. Rangan said.
Abrogast says that teenagers are using an extraction technique to distill and purify the alcohol from the sanitizer, enhancing the potency of the alcohol. The technique is found on the Internet.
And then, of course, teenagers throughout the ages have been creative about turning household items into things they can get a buzz off: cough syrup, mouthwash and even vanilla extract. Hand sanitizers are just the latest over-the-counter product being used to get a quick high.
Dangerous trend
Although there has only been a few cases, Dr. Rangan says it could signal a dangerous trend.
"This is a rapidly emerging trend," he said.
Dr. Bill Mallon works in the emergency room at Los Angeles County USC Medical Center. He says he has seen many young people at the hospital with alcohol poisoning after drinking disinfectants.
"It doesn't sound appealing, but you have to remember that kids don't have access to alcohol so they're very creative," Mallon told local TV station KTLA.

Yeah, you can visit those islands by boat, and when there is decent swell it is awesome. You aren't allowed to walk anywhere but the sand, and can't camp, and can't have dogs. The place i went is down by onancock.

Yea> onancock is on the bayside.If you went opposite if onancock on the other side of the shore you would have been on ceder island. You either went out of follys creek or wachapreague. The barrire islands have tons of setups when we have swell {all beachbreak of course}. And im not blowing any spots up because you have to access them by boats and even if people came theres so many places that break around the inlets that it wouldnt be crowded and a lot of people wouldnt have the knowledge to access some of the breaks further from the inlet. It requires time and research but the benefits are great. Ive surfed these islands for 10 years with a handfull of friends. I actually seen raven lundy and his crew a couple of times on skis around a couple of the inlets but there are also some good breaks further down the beach but they work only on the right tide and swell just like any other east coast beach break. Over the last couple hurricane seasons ive been seeing some deleware tags at the dock and a few guys exploring but other than that its just a few of us. Love it

During Ophelia I saw it breaking over what was the Sandbar in Chinco inlet. fishermen said you could walk out a 1/4 mile and catch the waves. Its was also wrapping around the end of the hook and into the cove. So amazing. Of course the point was amazing during that swell. chinco rules!!!

I remember it was board breaking waves on CI when I was there in October. I went out with friends. But before we went we were at Ashoals when Perry ran in to get a new leash before he went back out. Turns out he had his board ripped off leash by a wave, got sucked down " like a leaf" he said, blacked out from the water he took in, got resuscitated by a suffers mom who happens to have been watching her kid surf, and she's a nurse, then he's back in with a new leash and eating antibiotics for weeks after. Days later he told me he had to get right back charging or the experience would have overcome him. And I was charging out like a tard with them watching green faces that looked like twelves slamming my friends down their plane to the sandy bottom! I can't even stand up and I was in the ****e! Tis crazy. But happy I tried!

Surfing Wallops Island
Has anyone ever surfed Wallops Island? I've been to chincoteague a few times but Wallops island seems like it would be as good if not better at catching and wrapping swell because of the beach geography. HOWEVER it also seems like their is a NASA base restricting access. Anyone?

Jolie Holland: Haunting Songs From The Road
Set List
- "Palmyra"
- "Mexico City"
- "Old Fashioned Morphine"
Jolie Holland has been called one of America's finest musical poets. Her words find communion with her music, with roots in folk, traditional country, jazz and a hint of the blues.
Holland's latest album, The Living and the Dead, is a study in life as a journey, inspired by her travels. Here, she performs hauntingly beautiful songs from the album — with nods to the writings of Jack Kerouac and Joan Vollmer — in a session with host David Dye.

Apple orders 10-inch tablet displays and robust glass panelsApple has placed mass orders for 10-inch displays as well as strong glass panels and connectors to go with them, according to two separate reports out of the Far East that peg the components for the company's much-anticipated tablet device.
According to DigiTimes, Foxconn's panel-making subsidiary Innolux will serve as the primary supplier of 10-inch panels for the forthcoming multi-touch device while Wintek — Apple's primary iPhone display panel purveyor — will be tasked with filling many of the remaining orders.
Citing sources from the iPhone maker's component suppliers, the Taiwanese rumor site also reports that the Cupertino-based company has been "seeking solutions to strengthen the glass of the 10-inch panel for the" tablets, a move which contributed to delaying the device's launch until the first-quarter 2010.
Foxconn's optical glass processing subsidiary G-Tech Optoelectronics will reportedly provide this unidentified glass strengthening process, while Taiwan-based optical film maker Wah Hong Industrial has also been tapped to supply components that will aid in the effort.
Based on an analysis of the shipping schedules of Apple's upstream component suppliers, DigiTimes predicts that Apple could announce its new tablet device in January with volume shipments to follow by March.
Separately, Taiwan's "Economic Daily" newspaper also reported Monday that Cheng Uei Precision has received large orders for new flat-panel Tablet PC connector parts, but oddly suggests the company is unlikely to start delivering those parts to Apple until the third quarter of 2010.
Last Summer, AppleInsider was first to report that Apple would base its long-awaited tablet device around a 10-inch display and that the device was bound to turn up no earlier than the first quarter of 2010.
Media reports from last Wednesday claim Apple recently booked the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco for Tuesday Jan. 26 for an unknown event, suggesting an unveiling could be less than a month away.

Skip to comments.Gene Mutation Linked To Cognition Is Found Only In Humans
Posted on 05/10/2007 11:50:52 AM PDT by LibWhacker
Science Daily The human and chimpanzee genomes vary by just 1.2 percent, yet there is a considerable difference in the mental and linguistic capabilities between the two species. A new study showed that a certain form of neuropsin, a protein that plays a role in learning and memory, is expressed only in the central nervous systems of humans and that it originated less than 5 million years ago. The study, which also demonstrated the molecular mechanism that creates this novel protein, will be published online in Human Mutation, the official journal of the Human Genome Variation Society.
Led by Dr. Bing Su of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Kunming, China, researchers analyzed the DNA of humans and several species of apes and monkeys. Their previous work had shown that type II neuropsin, a longer form of the protein, is not expressed in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of lesser apes and Old World monkeys. In the current study, they tested the expression of type II in the PFC of two great ape species, chimpanzees and orangutans, and found that it was not present. Since these two species diverged most recently from human ancestors (about 5 and 14 million years ago respectively), this finding demonstrates that type II is a human-specific form that originated relatively recently, less than 5 million years ago.
Gene sequencing revealed a mutation specific to humans that triggers a change in the splicing pattern of the neuropsin gene, creating a new splicing site and a longer protein. Introducing this mutation into chimpanzee DNA resulted in the creation of type II neuropsin. "Hence, the human-specific mutation is not only necessary but also sufficient in creating the novel splice form," the authors state.
The results also showed a weakening effect of a different, type I-specific splicing site and a significant reduction in type I neuropsin expression in human and chimpanzee when compared with the rhesus macaque, an Old World monkey. This pattern suggests that before the emergence of the type II splice form in human, the weakening of the type I splicing site already existed in the common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees, implying a multi-step process that led to the dramatic change of splicing pattern in humans, the authors note.
They identified a region of the chimpanzee sequence that has a weakening effect on the splicing site that also probably applies to humans. "It is likely that both the creation of novel splice form and the weakening of the constitutive splicing contribute to the splicing pattern changes during primate evolution, suggesting a multi-step process eventually leading to the origin of the type II form in human," the authors state.
They note that further studies should probe the biological function of type II neuropsin in humans, as the extra 45 amino acids in this form may cause protein structural and functional changes. They note that in order to understand the genetic basis that underlies the traits that set humans apart from nonhuman primates, recent studies have focused on identifying genes that have been positively selected during human evolution. They conclude, "The present results underscore the potential importance of the creation of novel splicing forms in the central nervous system in the emergence of human cognition."
Article: "A Human-Specific Mutation Leads to the Origin of a Novel Splice Form of Neuropsin (KLK8), a Gene Involved in Learning and Memory," Zhi-xiang Lu, Jia Peng, Bing Su, Human Mutation; May 2007; (DOI: 10.1002/humu.20547).
thanks, bfl
Actually there is a bit of an overlap at the ends of the two spectrums...
I used to be a strict evolutionist at one time. Then I realized evolution is not a substitute for creation. Given the complexity of life, a BMW 740i has a higher chance of spontaneously coming into existence out of nothing.
The same protein, just a longer version, and we have cognition. Kind of puts that 1.2 percent difference in perspective, doesn't it.
Evolution is not exclusive of creation, either.
Didn't say it was. Evolution can work independently of creation, as it most certainly does.
Would be interesting to ask the question:
"Whattup dawg?" and get a reply from your canine.
Dunno if this fits any of your lists.
Some life is more complex than other life. Some life is very very simple. But no one believes that life of the complexity of humans spontaneously came into existence out of nothing. On the contrary, the theory explicitly states that humans arose after - to borrow a convenient quote from the above article - "a multi-step process eventually leading to" the current form.
Gee wish I could have been a fly on the wall when the species diverged oh say some 5 million years ago.
We can't even find civilizations from only a thousand years ago and their evidence is actually buried in the dirt....how do they find "evidence" for something that supposedly happened millions of years ago?
You finally really did it you maniacs! You blew it up! Damn you! Damn you all to hell!
I'd rather seem them do something positive, like splicing that gene into liberals.
I know that "loose lips sink ships", but
does anyone think THERE WILL NOT BE some "scientists" that will perform R&D with "gene therapy" experiments, where they attempt to "give" the genes in question to some Chimps.
We are entering the age of the Chimera's - hybrid animal-human life forms. We are entering the age where the arrogance and hubris of humanity - that we ARE as great as God - can become the most self-destructive force humans have ever "created".
The way they toss around and abuse terms like cognition they'll never find the real deal. They aren't even in the right structure.
Oh really, which life forms are?
"Introducing this mutation into chimpanzee DNA resulted in the creation of type II neuropsin." - Article
Already done.
Read about prions. They are "lifeless", self-replicating molecules of protein.
Shades of Flowers For Algernon ... how soon before science finds a way to stimulate this protein (type II neuropsin) and 'enhance' human mental capabilities?
Mice are simpler than humans, fruit flies are simpler than mice, bacteria are simpler than fruit flies...
Was this a real question?
Do you seriously consider bateria a simple lifeform?
Or if there are any other species that have this form of protein [dolphins or mice]?
I find it interesting that mythology is packed solid with chimera.
Have we been down this road before?
Only in the test tube, right?
Um, look. Surely you agree that some life forms are simpler than others. Take the 0.01% (or whatever small %) of life forms which are simpler than the other 99.99% (however you want to gauge "simple"). Well, I call this 0.01% very very simple.
The simpliest life form we have discovered is still incredibly and extraordinarily complex.
By what measure? Compared to what? This is begging the question.
Do you seriously consider bateria a simple lifeform?
Relatively speaking? Of course.
I stand corrected, thank you, point taken.
LOL! Thanks.
If you paired him with helen thomas, now the image??????
A bacterium is more complex than the sun? Than a laptop computer? Than the Milky Way Galaxy? Than a Toyota Prius? Than a tornado? Than a linear accelerator? Than the Grand Canyon? Than an aircraft carrier?
Non-living things, all. (by most definitions)
and not just by orders of magnitude, as though there were some smooth gradation between the organic and inorganic worlds and life was just a bit farther along the road to complexityville.
That's not what I said. Life is a different type of thing, true. I was not asserting otherwise.
The difference is a chasm that makes bacteria and primates look even more closely related than chimps and humans.
You lost me. I don't understand how any relative comparison can make bacteria look more closely related to primates than chimps look to humans. Relative or not, the latter pair are surely more closely related than the former pair, on any scale.

I'm hoping that giving them cognitive ability will suppress their liberalism. Think of it as gene therapy.
Thank you for NOT posting an image or images to show your conception of what this would have looked like. I'm fresh out of eye-bleach.
Thank you for your cheeky response. I do not have any barf bags left.
It's been said that he is an angry elf. You be the judge.
I work in a department full of liberal English Professors.
I'm sorry to hear that. Are you being punished for crimes against humanity?
Not yet. They don't know that I'm not a liberal. They might suspect, but they aren't sure. The students know, but they seem to appreciate how unique it is to have an English professor who spits on the floor whenever he has to mention John Kerry or Hillary Clinton's name. (Okay I fake it)
I also make students write papers on the advantages of global warming. Most of our students still aren't sufficently brainwashed yet to be good knee-jerk liberals. You ought to see the shock on their little faces when they find out that I am not a liberal knuckle dragger.
And I'm not the only conservative or libertarian in the department. We have a secret handshake.
I believe that one of my students is now actually posting on Free Republic.
"Thank you for your cheeky response. I do not have any barf bags left."
Me neither. Not to mention that the idea boggles the mind. I had nightmares about that idea last night...
"Shades of Flowers For Algernon "
Or rather, "The Ugly Little Boy."

Sunday, July 31 … Join us at 9:30 a.m. as Pastor Jim shares from God's Word about the reality of a Christian nation.
Consider staying for the next hour for an Adult Bible Fellowship class (or Sunday School class for children ages birth through college) -- Bible study with a smaller group of people where you can share prayer requests and get to know others at a different level than in corporate worship.
We hope you will join us and that you will feel welcomed here at First Baptist.
