Despite the introduction of highly-active antiretroviral treatment (HAART), the proportion of newly HIV-1 infected patients developing HIV-associated dementia (HAD) is increasing. Currently, there is no effective therapy for HAD. Understanding the evolutionary factors driving the emergence of neurovirulent strains during disease progression is of pivotal importance to develop a realistic model of neuroAIDS. The objectives of the current proposal are to define viral evolutionary steps within the central nervous system (CNS) and select monocyte/macrophages from bone marrow, gut, lung and blood preceding and associated with the onset of neuropathogenesis. The Rhesus macaque model of neuroAIDS will be employed to study the evolution of the viral quasispecies during disease progression and to track SIV-infected macrophage subsets infiltrating the brain. 24 animals will be infected with a genetically-defined viral swarm. Peripheral blood and tissue samples will be collected over time and used for amplification of a 3.3kb fragment, including gp160, nef and 5'LTR, of the viral genome, as well as some full-length genomes from selected tissues. We will use laser-captured microscopy to isolate viral variants from specific productively infected macrophage in the brain at early and end stage disease. High-resolution phylogenetic, population genetics, and molecular clock algorithms (phylodynamics) will reveal genetic aspects of viral reservoirs linked to the onset of a neuropathogenic infection that have not yet been characterized because of ethical problems associated with tissue sampling in humans.
Specific Aim 1 will investigate the evolutionary dynamics of SIV in lymphoid and non- lymphoid tissues during the course of the infection via longitudinal PBMC/tissue macrophages sampling and brain biopsies of monkeys with and without CD8+ T-cell depletion;
Specific Aim 2 will identify macrophage subsets involved in brain entry and acting as potential viral reservoirs for brain infection. We will be able to identify tempo and mode of brain infection and evolutionary signatures leading to the emergence of infectious macrophage-tropic quasispecies that could be used to predict and monitor the disease. Equally important is the possibility to use the findings into developing drugs that target macrophage and viral quasispecies associated to neuropathogenesis. Overall, we will compile the most comprehensive database of longitudinal SIV sequences from a variety of tissues to date. The PI, although a new investigator without previous R01 funding, has significant experience in cutting-edge analysis of genetic data, and has assembled a unique and qualified interdisciplinary team to assist in the study.
This project on HIV-associated dementia examines the evolution of immunodeficiency viruses in various tissues involved in brain infection. A monkey model of neuroAIDS is used that mimics the course of HIV infection in humans. The result will be a description of the genetic basis for the onset of dementia in patients with AIDS leading the way to the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic tools.

People use this metaphor a lot. Like pizza face. Anything kind of brutal and gory can be likened to pizza without people saying "Huh? Pizza? I don't get it, are his eyeballs supposed to be like bbq chicken and his zits like little corn bits?" No. Moist, red and orange shit looks like gore.ReplyDelete
You guys need to either listen to more rap that's worse or just cut it out because you're out of ideas. Shit.

Who cares about how good/bad using pizza as a metaphor for how his victim's chest would look like....the guy is such an obvious poseur. I mean, look at him. I doubt very much that this weakling has ever even held a water gun, let alone the real deal.ReplyDelete

9 Purdue researchers win 2011 NSF early career awards
April 4, 2012
Details about the Purdue awardees and their research follow:
Nanotech Forces
Alexeenko, an assistant professor in the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics, will use her grant to learn how to apply the principles of "Knudsen forces," or forces exerted by the movement of gas molecules, to the field of nanotechnology. Knowledge about the forces is needed to design high-precision thermal sensors, miniature motors and tiny machines called microelectromechanical systems, or MEMS, and to improve the accuracy of a widely used research tool called an atomic force microscope. Textbooks contain little information about the physics of Knudsen forces, although they can profoundly influence the motion of MEMS components in the presence of heating or cooling. The project includes curriculum development and work to create simulation tools and the world's largest and smallest Crookes radiometers, ornamental devices consisting of a sealed glass chamber housing metallic vanes that spin when exposed to sunlight. Knudsen forces cause the vanes to spin inside the devices, which are also called light mills.
Design Learning
Cardella, an assistant professor in the School of Engineering Education, will use her grant to study how engineering students' learning experiences in mathematics courses impact how they learn engineering design. Since design is closely tied to innovation, the impact on preparation of the technical workforce in the United States is potentially important. Cardella will use a "verbal protocol" method, which enables researchers to understand the thought process by having students verbalize how they are solving a problem. Understanding how students differ according to demographics could help increase the number of young people who choose to study engineering. About 90 students will be included in the study. The project aims to improve undergraduate engineering education, while at the same time focusing attention on mathematics education at the K-12 level. She plans to widely disseminate the project's results, including outreach to K-12 educators through workshops. The project overlaps with NSF's focus on preparing an engineering workforce with new capabilities and expertise and developing innovative learning systems.
Statistical Tools to Aid Proteomics, Metabolomics and Ionomics
Vitek, an associate professor of statistics and computer science, will use her grant to develop statistical and computational tools for the fields of proteomics, metabolomics and ionomics, which examine the interactions of groups of biological molecules and identify potential biomarkers for disease. Commonly used technology in these fields, such as nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry, create large and complex datasets that are difficult to process and interpret. Vitek will develop statistical methodology and software that more accurately identifies and quantifies proteins, metabolites and ions from these high-throughput experiments. The approach will use statistical methods and information available from existing databases to increase the sensitivity, accuracy and scope of interpretation of this data and will assist in the optimal design of targeted follow-up experiments. Vitek will use screens of the yeast S. cerevisiae as a demonstration model to benchmark the methods. Vitek also will make case studies available to the community, offer interdisciplinary tutorials and courses, and mentor students across departments to help bridge the communication gap among biologists, chemists and statisticians.
Cystic Fibrosis Drug Delivery
Yeo, an assistant professor of industrial and physical pharmacy, will use her grant to create new drug-delivery systems to help in the treatment of cystic fibrosis, the chronic lung disease caused by genetic defects. Direct delivery of drugs is challenging because of a thick mucous barrier that develops in the lungs as part of the disease. Yeo plans to create a layer of sugar-based biomaterial that can encapsulate nanoparticles and create a channel through the mucous as it dissolves. The sugars attract water and thin the mucous, allowing the therapeutic nanoparticle to slip through and reach the targeted lung cells. She is working to develop formulations that create fluffy particles that can be easily inhaled into the lungs. Yeo also is using the grant to create an outreach program to interest high school students in science. Undergraduates in the Engineering Projects in Community Service, or EPICS, program will create materials and activities for science teachers describing microparticles, their common uses and the chemistry involved.

Sideways Pictures
If I take a picture with the phone held in the normal "phone" orientation (with the camera toward the top) the resulting image shows up properly in the gallery but if I upload it to Facebook, send it in an MMS, copy it to my computer, etc. it's sideways. I've done some web searching and it looks like the camera orientation is being stored in an Exif tag.
Can anyone tell me how to disable the use of these tags and make it generate the file based on orientation? Either that or recommend a good alternate camera app that'll do it?

Here we are again.
Comic-Con attendees are about to descend on downtown, packing streets and crowding the Convention Center. And this week, Mayor Kevin Faulconer put immediate fears to rest and announced the massive entertainment fest would stick in San Diego through 2018.
But the city's still far from that expansion Comic-Con organizers and many fans have long said is necessary to keep the event in the long term.
For now, a legal challenge has halted the $520 million waterfront expansion and there's talk of adding convention space elsewhere.

This review is from: WD Re 1TB Datacenter Capacity Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM Class SAS 6Gb/s 32MB Cache 3.5 inch WD1001FYYG
Pros: don't know of any
Cons: To clarify my earlier review: after a lot more research, I figured out that this drive uses a 29 pin SAS connector. If you want to use it on a SATA disk controller, you need a 29 pin SAS to SATA adapter.
But their documentation should state this - 29 pin SAS connectors aren't all that common. And their tech support people should know what kind of connector they put on their drive.
This review is from: WD Re 1TB Datacenter Capacity Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM Class SAS 6Gb/s 32MB Cache 3.5 inch WD1001FYYG
Pros: don't know of any
Cons: I can't use this drive. They have a special 22 pin sata connector on the back that cannot use regular sata power and data cables. It also cannot use a 22 pin sata connector either. I spent over a half hour on the phone with Western Digital, and they cannot even tell me what kind of connector is on the back of the drive, let alone what sort of adapter to buy to hook it up.
Other Thoughts: If Western Digital is going to use a non-standard cable, they should tell customers ahead of time and be able to answer such a basic question when customers call.READ FULL REVIEW

Finch is back.
Following its 10-year anniversary tours a few years ago, and this year's dates with the Vans Warped Tour, the California post-hardcore band is returning with a brand new album, nine years after the release of 'Say Hello To Sunshine.'
On Sept. 30, Finch will drop its third full-length album, 'Back To Oblivion.' It was produced by Brian Virtue (Deftones, Jane's Addiction, 30 Seconds To Mars), and will be released through Razor & Tie. The day of the release, Finch will kick off a massive tour with Maps & Atlases, Wound and the Helen Earth Band that will keep them on the road until early November (see the dates below). Like we said, Finch is back.
Today we're thrilled to premiere 'Back To Oblivion' in its entirety, one week before it's official release date. Listen below, and pre-order it via iTunes or the official Finch website.
Also, read our interview with Finch bassist Daniel Wonacott. He told us about the making of 'Back To Oblivion,' the band's Warped Tour experiences, and how rock music will never die.
It's been nine years since the last album. Why was right now the right time to return with a new one?
It wasn't really planned out, to be honest. We started playing together again and rehearsing for the 10 year anniversary tour and when we're all together, it just always happens that someone shows up with a riff or a song. We were casually jamming new ideas, and at some point we were excited by what was happening and decided to make a record. Although, once we made the decision to write again, it was full force. I spent every second of my off time between tours writing and putting together arrangements. It was fun. We were energized by the 10 year tour and excited by what we were writing. For us to be able to release a new record after so much time off and a failed attempt at third record in 2009, it feels pretty special.
Did you and the band have any anxieties after being gone for so long?
I think you're always anxious when you're putting out a new record, no matter how long you've been gone. You're putting yourself out there, you're pushing your sound forward, trying to write the best songs you've ever written. The best part of this process was that there was no pressure; nobody knew that we were writing, nobody expected us to actually release anything new. It gave us a lot of freedom. We didn't have to release anything unless it was our best work. It had to be a full and realized statement from us.
Nate is quoted as saying your first album "defined post-hardcore early in the decade." Is this album a similar defining moment?
I think, if anything, it defines who we are right now. We don't care about genres, nor should anybody else, in my opinion. If you're moved by a song or a band or a sound, who gives a shit if it's punk or hardcore or country or pop? We make music for ourselves, that's the only way you get to an honest place. When the band wrote the first record, it wasn't like everyone was sitting around talking about 'post-hardcore': the band just made an honest record. I feel like we've made a very honest record this time, as well. It doesn't sound like either of the other two Finch albums, and it shouldn't. It sounds like us right now. It feels like a Finch record, it moves like a Finch record and we're really proud of what we were able to accomplish.
What's your favorite song on the new album, and what's the story behind it?
My personal favorite right now is a song called 'The Great Divide.' It was one of those songs that was lingering around for a while during the writing sessions, and we could never really get it to feel right. At some point, Randy and I said, "Let's just strip this down to like a Joy Division style verse," and all of the sudden the song started to work. Pappas changed the beat around from what it was, Nate rearranged his melody, and it turned into this wonderfully fresh sounding song for us. I like songs like that: songs that get turned around. I hate leaving good ideas on the table. I'm so pleased with how that one came out because we took out all the crap that was holding the song back and concentrated on the spirit of the song. Now it's got all this great raw attitude.
What was it like to play Warped Tour this summer? Did you feel like you made a connection with some new, younger audiences?
Warped Tour was a lot of fun. We were kind of expecting it to be a hellish tour, because of the heat and schedule, but it's so well run now it was really a pleasure to do. We saw all kinds of people out there: young people, old people, other bands. We definitely had something to prove, you know? We didn't really feel like the old band on the bill; almost everywhere we went, we were pleasantly surprised by the turn out.
Over the last decade, rock music's position has declined in mainstream culture. Every month it seems like someone -- most recently, Gene Simmons -- also declares that it's dead. Does this bother you?
I think rock music is still very important. Rock music represents person freedom and personal expression in a way that other styles of music haven't been able to capture yet. Like I said, genres don't matter: you can call it rock, pop, hip-hop or whatever. To us it's about attitude and creating a feeling in the room when we're playing together. When you plug in your guitar and start playing a song or a riff and it has that contagious feel -- this emotional weight -- that's what you want to share with people.
Rock is certainly not dead. There's always going to be some kid that needs an outlet, that will pick up a guitar and experience that personal freedom that comes with playing whatever the hell you want, and people will always want to share that, because it's powerful. Trends in popular music will always change. That's not our job. We do what we do because we love it, because nothing beats playing as loud as you can with your best friends and putting together the best songs you can.

Vithoulkas to succeed Hazelett as county manager
Citizen Staff Reports 08/14/12
Deputy Henrico County Manager for Administration John Vithoulkas will succeed Virgil Hazelett as county manager when Hazelett retires in January, following a unanimous vote by the county's Board of Supervisors at its meeting tonight. Vithoulkas, 44, will begin his new position Jan. 17.
Vithoulkas will become the eighth county manager since Henrico adopted the form of government in 1934.
The county manager serves as Henrico's chief administrative officer, responsible for implementing policies established by the Board of Supervisors and for overseeing the daily operations of the county and more than 35 agencies with approximately 4,000 general government employees (the county's total workforce, general government and Henrico County Public Schools, is more than 10,400). Duties include preparation and oversight of the county's annual budget, which tops $1 billion in operating and capital expenditures for the 2012-13 fiscal year, and preparation of the county's annual legislative program before the Virginia General Assembly.
Vithoulkas, a Henrico employee since 1997, rose through the ranks of the Department of Finance, joining the agency as a budget analyst and also working as budget director. He became acting director of Finance in September 2007 before taking over as director in January 2008.
In September 2009, Hazelett named him to the additional position of special economic advisor as Henrico confronted revenue declines and other challenges stemming from the national recession. In December, he was named a deputy county manager.
Vithoulkas has been key in helping to establish Henrico's to fiscal policies that have enabled the county to balance its budget throughout the recession and the lingering problematic economy. The county has absorbed revenue declines of more than $92 million the last two years without laying off employees, cutting services or raising taxes. He was the architect of a series of bond sales during the recession that yielded $17.7 million in debt-service savings for the county.
In August 2011, Henrico was the first locality nationwide to have its debt reaffirmed as triple-AAA — the highest available for a governmental entity — by the three international credit-rating agencies following the downgrade of U.S. government debt by Standard and Poor's.
Vithoulkas played a leading role in the effort that established Henrico, Va. as an official mailing address with the U.S. Postal Service in October 2008. The address-change initiative is saving the county more than $5 million annually in tax revenues that previously had been misdirected to other localities.
Vithoulkas, a naturalized citizen, is a native of Greece and immigrated to Virginia as an infant with his parents. A product of Henrico County Public Schools, he is a graduate of J.R. Tucker High School. He earned a bachelor's degree in political science from Virginia Commonwealth University in 1989 and received a master's degree in public administration from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in 1992. Before joining the Henrico County staff he worked as a police planner and assistant budget director for Gaston County, N.C. and as a budget analyst for Chesterfield County.
Vithoulkas lives in Glen Allen with his wife, Jenny, and their three children.
He has keyed the ongoing "Changing the Way Henrico Does Business" initiative, an internal project launched in response to the recession. It has led to streamlined, more-efficient operations in departments countywide, producing permanent savings of more than $50 million. He also has spearheaded efforts such as the Henrico Advantage Card, working with the local business community to boost sales for Henrico retailers.

The Marion County Commission should do itself a political favor and re-address the anti-tethering ordinance it incredibly and inexplicably rejected this week.
The Marion County Commission should do itself a political favor. It should re-address the anti-tethering ordinance it incredibly and inexplicably rejected this week.
The commission's 4-to-1 vote — Commissioner David Moore was the lone supporter — not to strengthen the county's ordinance on chaining dogs outdoors for long periods of time not only flew in the face of conventional, indeed expert, wisdom, it completely ignored simple political common sense. Not only did the Humane Society of Marion County, with its 8,500 members, endorse it, so did the police chief and mayor of Ocala, as well as more than 2,000 local petition signers. Add to that support from the Centers for Disease Control, the American Veterinarians Association and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and we have to wonder what commissioners Earl Arnett, Kathy Bryant, Stan McClain and Carl Zalak were thinking.
Of course, maybe the most egregious error by the opposing foursome was their refusal to explain why they opposed the anti-tethering ordinance, especially since there is indisputable evidence that hundreds of dogs in our community are left chained in their yards unattended, uncared for, unloved and, frankly, neglected and abused. The backlash from anti-tethering proponents has been just as vociferous over the commission's refusal to explain itself, maybe more so, than its vote in general.
The commission for the second time this year has shown itself indifferent on an issue that is not only important but emotional to its backers. Earlier this year, the commission — specifically, Bryant, McClain and Zalak — refused to allow a property tax exemption for low-income, longtime senior residents of Marion County. It would have cost them little and the measure had been supported by 61 percent of the voters on last November's ballot.
There is a worrisome tone-deafness developing over at the McPherson Complex.
As for the anti-tethering ordinance, there is clear evidence animals are being abused, and acting to at least try and curb some of that abuse would have cost the commission nothing monetarily and paid huge dividends politically. Yet, they not only rejected the strongly backed proposal, they also refused to justify their action.
The commission, save Moore, made both a public policy and a political mistake. It should seek a do-over on the anti-tethering ordinance, recognizing that as the policy-making body for the county, not doing anything also is policy — in this case, bad policy.
The anti-tethering ordinance that was presented Tuesday by animal welfare advocate Linda Norman is maybe overly restrictive and has room for improvement. Yet, that is the commission's role — to take a good idea and make it workable, while still ensuring the health and safety of the community is enhanced. It really is that simple.
Like any change in public health and safety rules — everything from seat belts to leash laws to anti-texting measures — compliance with an anti-tethering law won't happen overnight. But it's an education process, a teaching moment, that eventually will make dogs and people safer and our community a better place to live.
The County Commission needs to do a do-over on the anti-tethering law.

Best automotive mag on earth Must buy for import scene goons
Great mag but....... Love it, been a subscriber for a long long time and got the digital version to have on my nexus 10 but a bit disappointed that the digital version is not current with the print.

This is a summary. To read the whole story subscribe to BostonGlobe.com
Jennifer Baichwal and Edward Burtynsky make gorgeous warnings. Their last documentary collaboration, 2006's jaw-dropping "Manufactured Landscapes," combined Baichwal's inexorable camera moves and Burtynsky's eye for environmentally degraded industrial vistas to jolt audiences out of their complacency. It was as if an alien were hovering over a planet, our planet, on the verge of ruin.
"Watermark" opens with a similar sense of disaster disguised as beauty: a slow-motion shot of what appear to be river rapids, water jetting up and out in majestic sprays. Very artful. Only later in the film do we learn that we're seeing the silt release from the massive Xiaolangdi Dam in China. Before that, we've visited the parched, cracked desert in Mexico where the Colorado River used to be.

Instmctions): (Core B, Lauer) The Shared Resource Core is one of the three cores required by the Cleveland Clinic Program of Excellence in Glycoscience (CC-PEG). The primary objectives of this Core are: 1) to accelerate the pace of the individual research projects by providing them with the glycoscience skills and facilities necessary for glycosaminoglycan analysis, and 2) to provide post-doctoral fellows supported by this program with hands-on instruction in glycosaminoglycan analytical techniques as part of a close partnership with the Glycoscience Skills Development Core. The Shared Resource Core will provide services and instruction in a variety of analytical techniques, involving glycosaminoglycans: (a) extraction and purification, (b) mass, size and sulfation profiling, (c) binding partners and modifications, (d) immunohistochemistry and gene expression, and (e) smooth muscle/endothellal cell culture. These services and instructions will insure timeliness, efficiency and uniformity for all the projects in achieving their aims that require extensive analyses of glycosaminoglycans/proteoglycans, thereby facilitating meeting the overall goals of the CC-PEG to determine the roles of hyaluronan matrices in vascular pathologies.
The Shared Resource Core will contribute to public health by providing the Individual research projects with the specialized analytical tools required for glycosaminoglycan/proteoglycan analyses. These analyses will involve clinical samples from patients with vascular disease involving diabetes, pulmonary hypertension and inflammatory bowel disease.

I've just read Moab Is My Washpot and laughed out loud. What or who makes you laugh out loud?
Richard Rooke, Hereford
Well, the usual suspects, I'm afraid. Wodehouse, Waugh and, for entirely the wrong reasons, Roger Scruton.
In some of your comedy sketches with Hugh Laurie a few years ago the illusive and intriguing "Marjorie" would appear, but was never seen. Was she based on anyone you both knew or was she just an amusing name?
Tom Quinn, Canterbury, Kent
The elusive Marjorie was indeed mostly a Marjorie of the mind. A pleasing name, oddly different when contracted (as with Mrs Homer Simpson). In fact she did finally appear in an episode - wondrously played by Maria Aitken.
Do you have any advice for Tara Palmer-Tomkinson? And how about Jonathan Aitken?
Larry Greening, north London
Blimey. Am I being set up as an expert on rehabilitation, both narcotic and penal? It would be an impertinence to offer more than platitudes. I know the one a little and the other not at all. I do know that Tara P-T has marvellous parents and JA a marvellous sister. They can't go too far wrong. I expect they have good friends, too, so I hope all will be well. Schadenfreude, joy in the shame of others, is not a very British feeling - as the word implies.
Do you talk to Rik Mayall?
Heather Hayling by e-mail
When I can. There are few finer pleasures.
I hear you drive a London hackney carriage as a private vehicle. I also understand Prince Philip has recently invested in one. Fancy challenging him to a race?
Tom Quinn, Canterbury, Kent
Along the Mall from Admiralty Arch to the statue of Queen Victoria. If he loses he has to burn all his mackintoshes (why does he insist on wearing them?) - if I lose I have to burn all my Paul Smith socks (ditto).
When are you coming to Leamington Spa again ?
Jeremy Quentin Sleath,
Leamington Spa
When the flood waters recede, I shall return. Thank you for remembering.
You have produced some of the most memorable British comedy, you have acted in films and on stage, and you have written successfully. Where would you see yourself now if fate had forged a different path for you?
Tom Quinn, Canterbury, Kent
I think teaching. It was always what I imagined myself doing.
Having read, much admired and been moved to tears by your autobiography, I wondered how you handle making new acquaintances who, in all probability, know so much already about your life and innermost thoughts. Normally this degree of intimacy would be the result of months, if not years, of close friendship. I imagine that writing it was a cathartic experience for you but have you ever regretted being so honest - has it ever led to any embarrassing or difficult situations?
Louise Thomas, Abingdon
Nothing truly embarrassing so far. I am sometimes aware of furtive sideways glances: "Did he really do that?" they seem to be asking. "And surely not that?" Martin Amis says somewhere in, I think, The Information, that a character has just enough of the writer in him to believe that his experiences and thoughts are likely to be those of others too. I think I have just enough of that brand of confidence: confidence that there is little I have done, thought, or felt that others haven't done, thought, imagined or felt as well.
My personal favourite from your `Blackadder' personas was the barking (mad) military leader in Blackadder Goes Forth. Which was the most enjoyable to play and what is your favourite episode?
Tom Quinn, Canterbury, Kent
I must say it was great fun to be able to play a character that was loud and deranged. I enjoyed the episode where Captain Blackadder was court- martialled for murdering my favourite pigeon - a higher quotient of shouting than ever, that episode. But, like many people, I was very moved by the final image of the final episode with Blackadder leading his men out of the trenches - while my character, of course, was safely tucked up in his moustache.
Favourite joke?
Keith Gapp, Oxford
Oh dear, I don't think I have one. Like most people who have earned their supercolossal public-school salaries in comedy, I am hopeless at jokes.
Why is TV comedy dominated by an astronomically paid group of ex-public schoolboys and their cronies?
Ray O'Shaughnessy, Wellingborough
I am afraid my only experience of TV is in the British Isles. I really can't speak for other countries, or indeed planets. I reach for the Radio Times of the past year. Goodness Gracious Me. The Fast Show. League of Gentlemen. Gimme Gimme Gimme. One Foot in the Grave. Birds of A Feather. Goodnight Sweetheart. Lots of other sitcoms and shows. Damned if I can find a single public-school product among them. I personally went to a state primary school, a private prep school, a public school, a direct- grant grammar school, a state sixth-form college and then another state sixth-form college. The only other public-school products I've worked with much have been Hugh Laurie and Rowan Atkinson. Perhaps we should all be banned from television because we went to the wrong schools. Seems a little harsh. While you're at it, have you noticed how many highly paid Jews there are on television? I qualify there as well. And an increasing number of Asians these days? I'm sorry you don't like minorities. Perhaps this is something you can take up with a doctor. As for salaries... well: the big money seems to have gone in exclusive contracts to entirely state- school people: a female double act, a brace of Geordies, sports presenters, game-show hosts and so forth. But why are we playing this game? It seems silly, undignified, bitter and unpleasant. Let's play nicer games.
After playing Oscar Wilde in the film of the same name has your opinion of the influential writer and wit changed in any way?
Tom Quinn, Canterbury, Kent
Hum. Not quite sure. There was a time, during the filming, when I was crosser with him for what he did to his wife and children. The further we move from him - and it's now very nearly 100 years since his death - the more gigantic he appears. As we zoom away from the century and look out of the rear window, he seems to dwarf those who were once closer to us, as tall buildings will reassert themselves over a small shed that once blocked them when we were closer up. If you get me.
Which is your favourite Mahler symphony ?
Paul Mitchell by e-mail
I suppose The Resurrection. But to be frank I'm more of a Wagner baby than a Mahler baby. Not that I despise Gussie, but Dickie W just seems infinitely more the canine testicles to me.
Are you for or against boarding schools?
Barry Norton, east London
There was a New Yorker cartoon that featured a man saying something like this: "I guess I'm lucky really. Not having kids means I don't have to worry about the environment, the crime rate or the educational system." I wouldn't go quite that far, but in the same way that men feel they can avoid (with simply massive relief) having an opinion on the awfully tricky abortion issue by pleading that it's not their business to tell a woman what to do with their body, so I feel I can duck out the private-education debate.
If it's a wider social question of whether Britain would be morally and politically better off without private education, I'm bound to say: "Get real." If public schools were
banned tomorrow, Eton would move to a castle in Ireland, Harrow to a schloss in Switzerland and Winchester to a chateau in the Loire. We would be riven by greater elitism than ever before. "Oh, you were educated in Britain... how sad. Piers went to Charterhouse-sur-Seine and Camilla was at Cheltenham-am-See. It's often said, but none the less true, but we should make our state schools so fucking good that you'd be mad to send your children to some smelly old place miles and miles away when Alderman Satterthwaite High in Barnsley is 10 times as good. And I really don't believe in the argument that only by forcing the upper-middle classes to pay attention to state schools will anything be done about them. Are we really saying that 95 per cent of the nation is incapable of addressing its education problems without being helped out by the dismal 5 per cent in their Range Rovers and unacceptable accents? God help us all. There really is such a thing as will. You don't have to be Nietzsche to believe that.
What makes you happy?
Julie Frederick, Islington, London
I daren't say. I'm not superstitious, but I do dread tempting providence. There are things I couldn't live without: Apple Macintoshes for example (no, I am not paid by Apple and have never received so much as a free floppy from them, I just plain adore the kitteny darlings). Mostly, happiness comes round a dinner table with friends. Eating, drinking, playing poker, being silly. The usual nonsense. When I'm old, emphysemic, arthritic and incontinent I am not sure I know what I will most look back on and identify as happiness. That, I must suppose, means one really ought to get on with the merry-go-round ride, rather than stop and disassemble the mechanics. It'll stop all too soon.
What has life taught you?
Roger Yelland, Bristol
The major lesson of life seems to be that just when you think you've understood things, something happens to turn your understanding upside down and inside out. So I suppose life has taught me nothing. Which is as it should be.
What are your extravagances?
Oliver Pendleton by e-mail
The above-mentioned Apple Macintoshes and the endless stream of peripherals that adhere thereunto; wine; socks; DVDs, first-class air travel. Nothing worthy.
In real life, do you see yourself more as Jeeves or Wooster?
Mick Anderson, Cambridge
I'm certainly not adroit, efficient, neat, quiet on my feet and respectful like Jeeves. On the other hand, I do tend to remember quotations and regurgitate facts like him. I attempt the sunniness of disposition of Bertie Wooster, but can't achieve the same altruism and sweetness of nature. A mongrel hybrid of both, I suppose. A sort of Jooster. Why take two Wodehouse characters into the shower, when you can simply Jooster And Go?
Best and worst memory of Cambridge University? What sort of antics did you get up to with Emma Thompson and Hugh Laurie?
David Pederson,
Well, I'd hate you to think that we were like characters in some Edwardian schoolboy novel ("And so the three chums marched off to the tuck-shop for a pound of Mrs Godfrey's best bull's eyes and two bottles of frothing ginger pop...") but I did enjoy myself at university. Especially so since it was such a close squeak getting there, after expulsions, prison and probation and all. Part of the pleasure of being at a university is the feeling that the place belongs to you, and there is a corresponding irredentist melancholy in returning and seeing the place usurped by new waves of the young. The ancient universities are remarkable places, to be sure ... but even if Cambridge had been all brutalist concrete with horrible drip- marks and sour smelling catwalks, I would still have had a wonderful time because of friendship.
Why were you expelled from Uppingham? And what were your memories of the remand centre?
Corine Backs, Wetherby, N Yorks
I have covered it pretty extensively in a book and wouldn't want to sound as if I still can't wait to go on about it all the time. So perhaps you can steal a copy somehow, which would acquit me of sounding as if I'm touting for custom.
Is it true that you own a Tiger Moth stunt aircraft? Do you still fly it?
K Lockham, by e-mail
I sold it a couple of years ago. I could fly it. Flying is easy. Unfortunately I couldn't land it or take off in it with any degree of safety. Those bits are hard. I also get lost after thirty seconds in the air, no matter how well I know the terrain beneath. It just looks so different from up there. You need time to put in the hours. So I relied on an RAF jet pilot member of the family who would do the hard bits for me and let me do the fun, easy, flying, bit.
You've been called the most brilliant man in Britain. Who, in your opinion, actually is?
Denise Elgar, south London
It's probably someone we don't know, working away in the field of polynomials or genetic science or plastic extrusion or something. But of the prominently brilliant, you've got to travel far to meet someone more Brilliant with a majuscule and magisterial B than Tom Stoppard.
Why did you call your autobiography Moab Is My Washpot and when is the next volume coming out? I've found the quote in the Bible but I'm still none the wiser!
Robin Butterell, Chester
Reminds me of that story about FESmith who when still a young and very much up-and-coming lawyer, treated a judge to a lengthy peroration in court one afternoon.
"Thank you, Mr Smith," snapped the judge, who didn't like clever young men, "but I'm not sure I'm any the wiser for all that."
"Possibly not, but you're certainly better informed," Smith replied.
So even if if you weren't wiser about the title, you had the fun of trawling the Bible which, when out of the hands of mad evangelicals, is rather fine, don't you think? In fact the Moab title has something to do with the subsequent phrase which concerns vanquishing the Philistines. My adolescent self saw life as a war between the athlete and the aesthete, the inner life and the outer life. But then, I was something of a wanker.
Why did you walk out of Cellmates? And, more than that, why Belgium?
Catherine O'Connor, Wokingham, Berks
Oh poo. Well, the long and short of it is that I really don't know. The bleeding Belgium canard will waddle with me till I die. It just so happened that Belgium was en route... I had got the first ferry ticket I could lay my hands on, which by chance took me to Zeebrugge. I spent approximately six hours in Belgium and then went through Holland to Germany, heading relentlessly north towards Schleswig-Holstein. I think my intention was to go and live in some remote corner of Denmark. I saw myself in a huge white pullover, pushing logs into a wood burner, smoking an oddly shaped pipe and writing the odd bit of melancholy poetry. A kind of Max von Sydow, only plumper. It could still happen. You have been warned.
