53: nature lost to humanity through Adam's sin. In assessing whether a particular doctrine might have encouraged scientific inquiry, such ambivalence must be taken into account. Even the claim that the natural order reflected the contingency of a divine will could pull in two directions. It could be used, as it was by Bacon and Mersenne, to justify an empirical rather than a rationalist approach to nature. But it could also be used to dismiss the claims, even of empiricists, that they knew how nature works. For if God could have made the world work in _any_ number of ways, would it not always be presumptuous to pretend that one had actually pinned Him down? That was an objection with which Galileo had to contend. Figure I. 8. Illustration from page 207 of Johannes Kepler's Harmonices mundi (1619). In Kepler's construction of the solar system, each planet had its own melodic line associated with a changing speed that increased as it approached its closest point to the sun. The less the variation in speed, the more monotonous the theme.

" I know there's a link there somewhere between Martin and someone at the town hall. There's no other way to explain the fact that he's been allowed to buy that land so cheaply. It's just proving it that's going to be difficult. Most of the councillors seem to be hand in glove with each other; you can't make _any_ one of them speak to you, let alone give an interview.

The guy was taking on ten people at o he he had ten people working for him in one day. All at five pound a day. And all working long hours. I've never heard of anyone working the hours I worked but then again I was living there and that was my disadvantage. He could get me _any_ time. And he knew I didn't have to be home for the kids or whatever, he knew my circumstances so well and he knew th exactly how much he could use me you know. And he wouldn't let me go at nine o'clock if he thought I hadn't have been knackered and ready to fall down you know. He'd have kept me there longer than that. So in fact he knew that he was known as the last resort I'm I'm not so sure
56: last 20 years. Since the legislation assumes the existence of the common law background we must first endeavour to ascertain the general principles governing this area of tort and then see shortly how it is affected when there is a trade dispute. Secondly, the torts considered in this chapter may also come into question in cases of alleged unlawful competition between traders, but in practice they are of little significance because of the common law's refusal to adopt _any_ principle of " fair competition " other than the prohibition of obviously unlawful acts like torts and crimes and breaches of contract. Any full study of " unfair competition " would have to take account of the legislation protecting intangible business property like trade marks and patents, and of the statutory controls over restrictive trading agreements and monopolies, which have little or nothing to do with anything resembling the law of tort. One of the most significant sources of competition law is the EEC Treaty, which may be directly applicable in England and override municipal law. Article 85 prohibits agreements which have the effect of restricting or distorting competition and Article 86 prohibits

Further examples are given in Part V of the CP. Can the practitioner avoid the problem? --;techniques for resolving conflicts under the general law Fiduciaries attempt to resolve conflicts of interest and duty or conflicts between two duties by a variety of self-help methods. If these methods work, they may be used to modify fiduciary duties to avoid _any_ conflicts with what is permitted or required by regulatory rules. First, there are what may be termed contractual techniques which are arrived at by agreement between the parties. These include the development of trade practices which become implied terms of the contract, the use of exclusion clauses purporting to modify or exclude particular duties, and the making of advance disclosure of particular activities which would otherwise amount to breaches of duty. There are also " structural " techniques whereby the business of the firm is organised in such a

" " He was round to me at the office the other day, wondering if I had _any_ letters. Why he imagined Walter would have written to me I can't think. Perhaps he'd heard the rumours. Anyway, of course I hadn't any. He went to Rose too, but her mother had given him any there were. Hey -- give me that rag there. " Hilary Seymour-Strachey grabbed the rag, and went over to a picture. He did something technical on it, and suddenly his attention seemed to revert entirely to his exhibition. Greg, after a perfunctory tour round the makeshift gallery decided he'd better slip off. He stood at the top of the stairs, looking back at Hilary -- chunky, lively, absorbed -- and at his paintings. What had he got from the talk? A

62: the dark, inscrutable carob tree, I did feel a faint touch of fear. But it was a fear of the inexplicable, the unknown, not of the supernatural. As I walked across the gravel to the colonnade, where I could see Conchis was already sitting, his back to me, I decided on a course of action -- or rather, of reaction. He turned. " A good siesta? " " Yes, thank you. " " You have read the pamphlet? " " You're right. It is more fascinating than _any_ historical novel. " He kept a face impeccably proof to my ironic undertone. " Thank you very much. " I put the pamphlet on the table. Calmly, in my silence, he began to pour me tea. He had already had his own and he went away to play the harpsichord for twenty minutes. As I listened to him, I thought. The incidents seemed designed to deceive all the senses. Last night's had covered smell and hearing; this afternoon's, and that

Ian Paisley Further to that supplementary question, will the Minister also have a word with the planners about hotel accommodation, especially in the County Antrim area, and find out why so many obstacles are being put in the way of hoteliers who want to improve their facilities? Mr. Brooke I know that my hon. Friend the Member for Wiltshire, North is concerned to improve hotel accommodation throughout the Province, so I shall draw the hon. Gentleman's remarks to his attention. Mr. Jim Marshall Does the Secretary of State have _any_ further plans for undertaking joint initiatives between the Province and the Republic? Does the Secretary of State accept that the tourist industry in the island as a whole was affected adversely by British Airways' decision to stop the London-Dublin link? Will he give an undertaking to the House that he will have discussions with the chair of British Airways to try to reintroduce that important link between London and Dublin? Mr. Brooke I was asked specifically about tourism in Northern Ireland. My understanding is that the decision by British Airways

At least one writer has speculated that Carver may recently have lost a son (by circular argument, in that selfsame Stirling plague), but the truth is we simply don't know what, if _any_ , personal reference is composed into the music. It is however a magnificent piece -- the work of a great polyphonist at the very height of his powers. Dark but lustrously rich in vocal and tonal colour, the predominant mood -- if it's permissible to speak of such a thing in relation to a Mass setting -- seems to be one of elegiac lyricism. Despite many exquisite passages of florid embellishment in a manner familiar from the earlier works, there is much less of their sense of ecstatic suspension of time

Further, the magistrates should have considered the guidance and regulations in volume 1 of The Children Act 1989 Guidance and Regulations, vol. 1, p. 66, para. 5(1). I should add that in argument he also invited my attention to paragraph 5(7) and I will refer to that: " The justices however failed to make _any_ determination, or failed to make any finding or state any reasons for finding as to whether (i) there was any genuine alternative to the making of a secure accommodation order; (ii) all other alternatives had been comprehensively considered and rejected. I am told that certainly parts of this guidance were cited in argument to the justices and it is apparent from the report of the guardian ad litem that sections were quoted from it. It is convenient if I read paragraph 5(1) in the introduction to this section: " Restricting the liberty of children is a

The court to which the action is transferred sends notice of hearing, (N 272), or pre-trial review unless Ord 17, r 11 (automatic directions) applies (Ord 16, r 4(5) and 5A). Where a judge is the judge for two or more districts the judge or district judge may at _any_ time upon application or upon his own motion direct that the hearing of proceedings pending before the judge in one court shall take place in some other court of which he is the judge. Notice of hearing (N 247) is given by the court (Ord 13, r 2(3)). This procedure is sometimes followed when a " branch " county court has a long defended action which is more conveniently heard at the judge's main court in some large town.

How can Darby O'Gill be dismissed as superstitious nonsense when it is part descriptive of a society where even now devotional queues are forming to watch supposedly moving statues. If there is a bit of a want about such people then the good Catholic church surely provides for it. Miracles and dramatic visions, wonderful and fearful, are the stuff on which the faith has survived. The interweave of religion, superstition and legend within Irish history and culture is a living interrelationship which has not died with the coming of _any_ modern age. Exaggeration is an integral part of the Irish storytelling and myth making tradition and any tale will be followed by the remark " sure that's nothin' " from an unimpressed listener who will then proceed to recall or invent an even more amazing yarn. The whiskey glass from which King Brian drank is given pride of place as a hallowed relic on the top shelf of The Rathcullen Arms, destined to be the basis of many a tall tale. It is no coincidence that we move from this
68: rats, chicks and rabbits. We used to catch rabbits when we could, but Maureen bought the rest of the " prey " from breeders who specialise in these things. Now that I have a number of birds of my own, I do the same. There's a hatchery in Ilminster where we buy day-old chicks by the thousand -- my birds get through about five hundred every month or two. it's always the male chicks that are killed, as they're no good to the egg-producing farmers. Force-feeding the birds of prey was Sometimes necessary -- _any_ invalid may need to be encouraged to eat -- though it is a dangerous business which I never attempted with Maureen's patients. But she was an expert and by watching her I at least gained some confidence, enough to feel I could try it myself one day. Maureen's skill lay in basic first-aid and tender loving care, so I didn't learn about diseases or complicated injuries -- but what I did learn was vital to my future work. I picked up a lot about different species and their

Indeed, if we can suppress the automatic " liberal " prejudice which indexes " Newbolt, Sir Henry (1862–1938) " as " English imperialist poet " (in Ezra Pound. Penguin Critical Anthology, ed. Sullivan), we have to acknowledge that it was in many ways an attractive society, and an admirable one. That we are dealing with a privileged élite goes without saying; as also that it depended on the institution of domestic service. But there appears not to have been, for instance, _any_ of that sterile rivalry between man and wife which is now the bane of middle-class society with any claims to cultural or intellectual interests; plainly Mrs Lowndes and the young matrons who were her friends did not seethe resentfully at having their intellectual and imaginative capacities shackled to kitchen and nursery, whereas their husbands could exercise theirs in the great world. Moreover -- and more to the point -- if as literary intellectuals we feel frustrated at having no channel of access to the figures who exercise decision-making power in our societies
70: a note of your problem, and the symptoms you associate with it, including when they started/got worse. (d) Note down any other changes you may have noticed about yourself, even minor ones -- you may not see the connection but they may be vital clues to the doctor. (e) Keep a note of medicines or home treatments you have already tried and what effects, if any, they have had. (f) Tell the doctor if you are allergic to anything, particularly _any_ medicines. (g) Tell the doctor if any close relatives have ever had similar problems. (h) Women should make a note of the date of their last period. Be honest Honesty in answering the doctor's questions is particularly important. Do not cover up aspects of your lifestyle, such as heavy drinking, which you think may make you look less respectable. Most doctors are fairly unshockable, and they will need all the facts if they are to make a proper diagnosis. Extra questions to add to your list At the conclusion of the meeting
71: James Bond movie Licensed to Kill. In Beverly Hills Cop, Eddie Murphy holds up a pack of Lucky Strikes and says " These cigarettes are very popular with the children "; and in " Who Framed Roger Rabbit? " detective Eddie Valiant is offered Lucky Strike cigarettes by a teenage boy and Camel cigarettes by the cartoon character Betty Boop (Tobacco & Youth Reporter, Spring 1989). None of these references to smoking and cigarettes has _any_ significance for the plot: they are paid advertising aimed mainly at children. (Whether the draft Directive would have any effect on them is unclear.) It is at least plausible that the cryptic advertisements widely adopted by cigarette advertisers in the UK work insidiously but effectively on children by offering them the reward of deciphering the hidden messages in (for example) the Benson & Hedges Pure Gold adverts: if they can understand and recognise them, they join an adult conspiracy or club. " Advertising helps promote new low-tar brands " It is argued by the tobacco and advertising industries that advertising is necessary in order to promote the use of low-tar

We've spent the first month in our new house with an assortment of builders, damp-proofers, wood-wormers, plasterers, plumbers and painters. So for once I have _some_ sympathy with John Major, who is enduring similar torture at Number 10. It may explain why he is making such a mess of the job. How can he be expected to run the country when half his time is spent waiting for people who never turn up? When they do, he's probably so busy making tea, answering their demands for more sugar, and looking for his favourite mug in the debris that he can't concentrate on his red boxes.

74: the Iraqi oil minister. The Texan wanted to impress him to clinch a business deal. Later that night the Duchess took Wyatt on to a dinner party at top nightspot Annabel's, where the two refused to be separated. Steve, asked to sit at another table, astonished their host, Lord McAlpine, with the reply: " Mah woman and I sit together. " This was scandalous behaviour, and the word was that Buckingham Palace began telling Fergie to cool her relationship with the Texan. By the spring of 1991 this advice was beginning to have _some_ effect . But by that time Wyatt had introduced Sarah to " my friend and distant relation ". This was Johnny Bryan, another Texan who was wrongly reputed to be a millionaire. Johnny was a show-off -- a balding braggart who was later proved to be a liar. But he held a strong attraction for the the Duchess -- and by now she was totally out of the Palace's control. Bryan assured Sarah that if her marriage to Andrew could not be saved he would act for both of them in

If you are offered antibiotics remember that many of them have side-effects and can leave you feeling worse than before. Tell the doctor if you are allergic to any particular medication. Always call the doctor if you are vomiting or have diarrhoea. In either case you can easily and very quickly dehydrate and put your life at risk.

79: 1927--82 compared to an 80 per cent increase for the 15–24 year old group. This is associated with a reduction of freedom for the former group and increasing personal access to motorised transport for the latter. Fearful of the obvious dangers of traffic and molestation, parents have reacted by forbidding street play to younger offspring and by chauffeuring them around in the family car, itself more widely available. The reduction in child pedestrian fatalities may not therefore be quite what it seems, having perhaps more to do with parental sacrifice of the freedom of movement of their children than with _any_ tangible gains in traffic safety. The consumption of parents' time in this role as " transport guardians " is, as Hillman and Whalley have pointed out, an additional major societal consequence. Safer streets for children As children are those that are most at risk from impact by vehicles in housing areas, any search for safer streets should focus principally on them (Figure 2.5). Strategies can best be categorised under the headings of the so-called " three E's " or engineering, education and enforcement. Engineering
80: the qualitative features of DNA binding are the same. In particular, helix III of GH5, which corresponds to the recognition helix F of CAP, should bind to DNA by fitting into a groove, and the approximate face that GH5 presents to a duplex of DNA should be the same as the corresponding part of CAP. To understand the qualitative features of the binding of GH5 to DNA, we have taken the structure of the CAP/DNA complex, and made a least-squares superposition of GH5 onto CAP on the basis of the sequence alignment in Fig. 4. To avoid _any_ presumptions about the structure of the DNA, we replaced the bent DNA in the actual complex with the phosphate backbone for B-form DNA that was used to model the CAP/DNA complex. The resulting model of GH5 binding to DNA is shown in Fig. 5. How well does this model agree with existing data? First, the highly conserved residues Lys69 and Arg73 are positioned to interact with one strand of DNA, and Lys85 is positioned to interact with the other strand. These residues have counterparts in CAP (Arg185
81: Queen, in March asking her to inform the Foreign Secretary, Lord Clarendon. It seems that there was a lukewarm response from Britain, where the feeling was that since a legitimate heir existed (the Prince of the Asturias), the best solution would be to take up Napoleon III's former proposal for a regency. This was, indeed, the policy still being pursued by the Emperor, who, on 25 June, had finally persuaded Isabella formally to abdicate, thus leaving the throne officially vacant. The gesture, if it could ever have had _any_ importance, was now certainly much too late, for it was no longer in Paris but in Berlin that events would be decided, as Bismarck had begun to make clear. Taking steps to ensure that Queen Victoria was informed of Leopold's candidature while ignoring Napoleon III was in itself an insult, for France was certainly more directly concerned in the matter than England and the Emperor had better need than the Queen to be told directly. By snubbing Napoleon III, Bismarck made the provocative nature of his policy quite
82: discussed in terms of " acculturation ". For us, on the other hand, the dialectic between culture and society is weighted in the opposite direction. Social relations rather than their cultural vestments have priority. Social life obviously encompasses a vast range of activities and beliefs and is of bewildering complexity. Our first aim, therefore, is to isolate significant typical events and units of social life and activity, and then to probe for the underlying blueprint, often implicit rather than explicit, that will show how they fit together into a meaningful pattern. Our interest is not simply in _any_ one department of social life but rather in all these in a community, and especially in their mutual interdependence as parts of a whole. If communities can be thought of as houses, we are as concerned to discover what goes on in the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen as in the dining-room and sitting-room. We see action in one area not as self-contained or hermetically sealed, but as spilling over to affect and be affected by what goes on elsewhere under the same roof. This holistic, comprehensive,
83: of his life: his military campaigns and his development of a unified European culture. Though the second aspect was short-lived, it remained as an ideal concept that inspired future kings and emperors; and the first has hardly been surpassed by _any_ superior achievement to this day. The history of those achievements is complex. Charlemagne fought and worked on several fronts at any one time; in the military, political and cultural senses. Thus, a simple linear record of his life and rule is impossible and can not be pinned down as a simplistic historical account. Any narrative of his life develops along several parallel routes. A typical example is the pattern of revolt displayed by the conquered Saxons in what is now modern Germany. For much of his reign they persistently took advantage of Charles' absence in Italy or Spain to revolt against his rule. To give even a simple account of this sequence demands chapters that travel back and forth between the various territories that Charles conquered and ruled. Thus there is a pattern not only of territorial movement and campaigning, but of interaction
84: most notable is NGC 6397. It is quite easy to find, close to the Beta-Gamma pair; it is not particularly rich or condensed, but it may be only about 8200 light-years away, in which case it is the closest of all the globulars. I find NGC 6352 difficult with binoculars, even × 20. R Aræ, in the same × 7 field with Zeta and Eta, is an Algol-type eclipsing binary with a period of 4.4 days. As its range is from 5.9 to 6.9, it is always easy to see with binoculars of _any_ magnification. ARIES: the Ram Aries is always classed as the first constellation of the Zodiac, though by now the First Point of Aries (the position where the ecliptic cuts the equator) has shifted into the adjacent constellation of Pisces.

Mind you, hitting the fast-moving ball takes a bit of getting used to. It's just as well there's a practice mode with a machine churning out balls in six different patterns. There's also an option to practise serving: a tricky task involving quickly guiding a small cross into the service box. When you've mastered the various strokes possible (including lobs and smashes), you can enter _any_ of the four Grandslam tournaments (including Wimbledon), taking on computer players of varying ability. Alternatively, you can play against a friend. Of course, the question you're asking is, how does it compare to the recently rereleased International 3D Tennis? Well, it may be simulating the same sport, but it's a totally different sort of game. International is much easier to get into as it automatically positions your player for ever shot. This leads to a more strategic game with long rallies.
86: and it remains to be seen how it will develop its position and policies. The SDLP turned in the best performance of _any_ local party. Apart from unseating Sinn Fein in West Belfast, the SDLP converted a 731 majority in South Down into a commanding one of 6,342. Mr John Hume, the party leader, and his deputy, Mr Seamus Mallon, retained their seats in Foyle and Newry and Armagh with increased majorities. In mid-Ulster the party dramatically increased its vote. The Conservatives, fighting in Ulster for the first time in 70 years, failed to win any seats. Nevertheless, they carved out a 5.7 per cent share of the overall vote. The major political consequence of the election result for Northern Ireland will be the prompt resumption of the inter-party talks, probably by the end of the month.

Where the procession has been banned, the penalty for the inciter is slightly higher, a level four fine in addition to the three months' imprisonment. Merely taking part in a procession or assembly and knowingly failing to observe the conditions, and knowingly taking part in a banned procession are all punishable with level three fine only. There is no power of arrest for the offence under section 11 (organising without notice). But a constable in uniform may arrest anybody found committing _any_ of the offences under section 12, 13 and 14. When is it not " reasonably practicable " to give notice for the purposes of section 11(1), and 11(6)? Where a procession is organised without notice, no offence is committed if it was not " reasonably practicable " to give such notice, either at all, or within the specified six clear days. The burden of proving that it was not reasonably practicable would appear to fall on the defendant. This saddles the defendant with the task of proving

But it seems out of the question for everybody to climb up there tonight. We should be even less safe. " " We shall be forced to dig, shan't we? " said Acorn. " This place is almost as open as that heather we crossed, and the trees won't hide us from anything hunting on four feet. " " It would have been the same _any_ time we came, " said Fiver. " I'm not saying anything against it, Fiver, " replied Acorn, " but we need holes. It's a bad place not to be able to get underground.

89: Occasionally teachers were allowed to fit into school hours or overtime courses some algebra, Euclid, French, Latin and Irish. The Principal of Thomas Street School (later the Reverend Canon J A Davidson MA) taught some Greek. Discipline was severe. Children literally had to " toe the line " -- a circle painted on the floor for the use of classes. The pupils discussed, then as later, whether a horse's hair across the palm of the hand would split the bamboo cane picked by the master for its elastic swishing quality. Is it _any_ wonder that, when the occasional circus came to town, they mitched? Outside the schoolroom there was much to excite a boy -- fair-days, the Royal Irish Constabulary, the donkey races, the pig-killings, the fights outside the public houses, the drumming of the Orange parades and the occasional riots. There was also much to offset these scenes -- catechism, religious instruction, Sunday School prize-givings and what were called soirees, really tea-parties with currant loaves and penny baps. There were rare excursions to seaside
90: cruelties of life. " It seems to me the only people who do persist in that phase and make something tenable out of an unsatisfied, unsettled life, are rock musicians, and rock critics. But has satisfaction ever threatened to descend on your life? " It's never been something I've been immediately faced by. It's definitely a possession of other people, I have a very long list of things I want to do. " Artistic or personal? " Artistic. Nothing else counts. " Does a notion of " artistic growth " have _any_ place in your scheme? " Not really. Can you give me an example of where that's happened? " You're right -- in rock and pop, it seems that people just have their thing. " And they hone it. Or they start bad and merely get better. Artistic growth?

91: environmental fate studies " for firms hoping to get their pesticides approved. The agency requires studies to show how much spray residue is left on crops after harvesting and if the pesticide breaks down safely in water. In the 1970s, a similar inquiry resulted in the imprisonment of three executives of Industrial Bio Test, who had been found to have tampered with laboratory animals in order to obtain an improved safety result for drugs and pesticides. Since the British Ministry of Agriculture learned of the investigation last March, it has written to 262 US pesticide companies demanding that they reveal _any_ work conducted by Craven. British companies have until November to reveal if they have used the laboratory. Research by Friends of the Earth (FoE) shows that suspect pesticides include Dinocap, Alachlor and a group of fungicides known as EBDCs. FoE wants all the US tested pesticides withdrawn until their safety is established. Independent 14 October Agriculture and Food FAO switches to " green " tack The UN Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) has claimed as a major success its programme for integrated pest management in rice

93: ideas of reality. Meanwhile, " idealism " (with a small " i ") is a broad philosophical term for theories which work in terms of experience, conceived as " ideas " in the mind. Hence, although the connections are not automatic and are not embraced by all who call themselves idealists, there is an affinity between Idealists, idealists and an interpretative approach, just as there is between Realists, realists and a scientific one. The other term is " positivism ". In the social sciences at large the word has often been used very loosely for _any_ approach which applies scientific method to human affairs, conceived of as part of the natural order. Thus, it is not uncommon to find Comte, Durkheim, Marx, and Weber all described as positivists, even though from many points of view they make strange bedfellows. But current usage tends to be more precise, perhaps influenced by the philosophical meaning. For philosophers, the epitome of positivism is " Logical Positivism ", the hard-headed empiricism of the Vienna Circle popularized in English by A. J. Ayer's Language
94: he was sure would be of interest to us. It turned out to be the announcement of the elevation of Marcia Williams to the House of Lords. George Wigg almost had a stroke, in view of his undoubted and continuing hostility to her. For my part, I made no comment of _any_ kind. The lady has, so far as I know, done no harm in the Lords -- no one having seen her except on one occasion when she went there to lunch -- and she has yet to make her maiden speech. I do not think she derived any great benefits from being ennobled, but obviously it was something she liked and sought and Harold Wilson could see little or no reason for not obliging her. However, when she became Lady Falkender she became much more open to criticism. For instance, Denis Hamilton -- a totally fair journalist, but an incorrigible Conservative -- came to see me one day to warn me that The Times was prepared to break the newspaper silence that had until then, with the exception of Private Eye, been maintained by all news

Releases and captions The media or press release is one of the basic communication tools of _any_ media relations programme. It I be needed almost every time you have any information to give to the media. Changes in company policy, new products and services, financial results, staff appointments, sponsorship news, factory openings -- in fact almost any " happening " or change within your company or organisation will probably merit a release to at least a few papers or radio stations. In an ideal world each news outlet would receive a release tailored to its particular needs, and indeed this is sometimes possible. But more often the numbers are such that one or perhaps a small number
96: " discussed below). Nor is this the only evidence for 3/2 in void notation indicating a slow tempo. Borrel quotes an unidentified 18th-century theorist as explaining that such notation, with " des croches et des doubles croches blanches " (" flagged' void semi-minims and fusas, as in illus.1 in modern notation, crotchets and quavers), " mark a much greater slowness in the tempo ". As to Charpentier, what are we to make of his use of (3/2 (all with void notation) as well as 3/2 with modern notation? It is difficult to see _any_ chronological explanation for these different usages, since some of his earliest works, including Jesu, corona Virginum, H53, and Pange lingua, H58, employ 3/2 with modern notation, while a very late work, the Mass Assumpta est Maria, H ll, of 1699, has seven passages in 3/2 void notation. Between these two extremes, Cahiers 59, 60 of Charpentier's autograph Meslanges (thought by Hitchcock to date from the early 1690s) include several works which employ both 3/2 and 3/2 in

So, establishment for staphylococcusorius is often not an important feature because in the majority of infections we're talking about an endogenous infection, the organism was there in the first place. Penetration in many instances is not related to a property of the organism itself, in most instances it's re related to _some_ form of injury in which the organism is moved from it's normal skin location to a deep tissue location. So we won't mention these factors here, although in in some instances er, these properties are important to talk about for staph orius.

Okay. So, that's, that's the first example of a very common condition. Let's move on now to consider a very important type of infection such as meningitis
100: geometry. Because the magnetic fields due to the delivery and return currents cancel outside the braided outer conductor, there is no loss of signal power through electromagnetic radiation as a signal passes along the cable. In addition, if the outer braid is earthed, as is common practice, the inner lead wire is electrostatically screened from interfering signals due to extraneous external sources. Fluctuating fields can not exist inside a fixed equipotential surface (that of the braid here) on account of fluctuating external charge. It will be appreciated that the conductors of a transmission line inevitably exhibit _some_ series inductance and some capacitance between each other besides some series resistance and some conductance between each other. Moreover, all the circuit properties of a line are distributed along its length, uniformly so in the ideal situation of a uniformly constructed line. The distributed aspect contrasts sharply with the lumped nature of circuit representation of discrete components that has been adopted in all networks considered so far. In view of the distributed nature of a transmission line, to determine its behaviour it will generally be necessary to consider the response of an infinitesimal element of it.
101: the time-dependent intercept of the load line on the potential V axis now being equal to the total e.m.f. Notice that the presence of the signal e.m.f. in both these cases causes the load line to move parallel to itself with time. Another interesting and common circuit arrangement has a signal source, capacitor-coupled to a biased nonlinear network as shown in figure 10.1(a). The capacitor segregates the direct bias circuit, so that the bias load line is as shown in figure 10.1(b) with intercept on the V axis and slope. Intersection of this load line with the characteristic occurs at _some_ point O representing the operating bias, of the nonlinear network. The coupled signal causes the current I and potential difference V to fluctuate about the values and corresponding to the point O. Assuming that the capacitor exhibits negligible reactance at the operating frequency so that it couples the signal properly, Thévenin transformation reveals an effective signal circuit connected to the nonlinear network terminals comprising e.m.f. in series with resistance. Consequently the slope and intercept of the signal load line are as shown in the figure and, as varies, the displacement

Sandra was waiting at the door. She asked: " Would you like to come up to the top of the house, to my office? It's not very glamorous, I'm afraid, but I'll explain everything to you. " The Princess had spent the previous day reading Love and Pain, Sandra's book on violent relationships, and was able to speak with _some_ understanding about domestic violence. They sat together for around 20 minutes while Sandra outlined some of the worst cases of brutality. Occasionally, the Princess would wince in horror as she heard how women often arrived, their faces swollen, their ribs broken. " It's not only the physical side, " Diana said.

105: both disturbances attacks on property were not indiscriminate. There was talk of a " list ", and in both years the arrested rioters were operating close to their own streets and parishes. In both cases the artisans who made up a high proportion of the arrested do not appear in the rate-books, suggesting that they were not among those tradesmen who could be considered part of the " middling sort ". But neither were they from the very poor and vagrant population. Rudé's researches established that few of those tried after the Gordon Riots were unemployed, hardly _any_ had previous convictions and all were of settled abode. There were occasions when riots were connected with more overtly political incidents. Professor Rogers has shown the role of the wider populace when elections were contested in the widely enfranchised Westminster constituency in 1741 and 1749 and has suggested they foreshadowed the riots associated with John Wilkes. The cry of " Wilkes and Liberty " had first been heard in 1763 when the publisher of the anti-Government North Briton had been imprisoned after the issue of a general warrant. The populace generally 
106: in his assessment of the military situation in the east, and the generalized response to the " prophecy " passage was summed up in the single sentence quoted above. For the majority of the population, it seems that, now as before, the " Jewish Question " was of no more than secondary interest. The point seems reinforced by the fact that the SD reports following the further repetition of the Hitler prophecy in the speeches of 24 February, 30 September, and 8 November 1942, and 24 February and 21 March 1943, make no mention of _any_ reaction to the passage about the Jews. Hitler's proclamation on 24 February 1943 was, in fact, hardly noticed at all by the population, while reactions to the low-key speech on 21 March 1943 were dominated by the speculation over the astonishingly low figures for German war casualties which Hitler had given. The suspicion must be that for all their draconian nature, Hitler's comments on the Jews were regarded as stereotype repetition, and of little interest compared with his assessment of the war situation. There are,

" In January 1956, Dulles, still apparently comforted by his country's nuclear armoury, made his " brinkmanship " speech: " The ability to get to the verge without getting into the war is the necessary art. If you are scared to go to the brink you are lost. " It did not reassure his European allies as much as it did him that their continued existence, as sitting targets in _any_ exchange of fire, depended on his skills as a bluffer. By any standard 1956 was not a reassuring year. It saw the defeat of Adlai Stevenson whose demand for a suspension of tests brought an off of immediate agreement from Prime Minister Bulganin... to which Eisenhower responded by accusing the Russians of " internal interference " in his re-election campaign.

In the process everything distinctively Christian was eliminated: the baby was thrown out with the bath water. Second, and by the same token, the way was opened to setting Christianity on exactly the same footing as _any_ other religion. All might preserve some religious truth and meaning, but none could be allowed to make any absolute claims, though each would be acceptable to the extent -- but only to the extent -- that it conformed or could be made to conform to the standard of natural religion, conceived of as a set of beliefs or principles which could stand very well on their own feet. The appeal of such a position is of course very considerable, and seems no less strong today than two centuries ago. Those, and there are many, who believe that there is certainly value and truth in Christian belief,

The Home Secretary again referred the matter to the Court of Appeal who considered it in private and then rejected it. McMahon hardly considered it would do anything else: " I sit here in my cell writing this, having served almost nine years of a life sentence for a murder I did not commit... I also know that I sit here, not because of _any_ evidence against me but because of the legal establishment's concerns for its own pretensions to infallibility.

112: . In spite of the postponement, a number of senior Liberal Democrats believe the Convention should remain in a state of suspended animation for the near future. While all members unanimously agreed the body should not be wound up, a small team has been given the task of drawing up a programme of action which will satisfy the Lib Dems' requirements. After the Glasgow meeting, Mr Wallace said of the Convention's prospects: " My view is still that when this group tries to examine what is a realistic possibility, realistically we will not be able to embark on _any_ major schemes. " A number of executive members agreed that the newly formed Coalition for Scottish Democracy would take the lead on campaigning for constitutional change and be the main co-ordinator of future events. The Coalition is able to organise events which all the opposition parties attend, such as last weekend's conference to respond to the Government's stock-taking announcement. Moreover, the Scottish Labour leader, Tom Clarke, stated he would support future events even if the Scottish National Party was also involved. A seven-strong team will examine a

TILING WALLS The best way to practise your tiling skills if you've never done _any_ before if by covering just a small area such as a washbasin splashback, where setting out the tiles so they are centred on the area concerned is a simple job, and you have the minimum of tile cutting to do. When you are tackling a larger area -- a whole wall, or perhaps even a complete room -- you use exactly the same techniques; the big difference is the sheer scale of the job, which makes the preliminary setting-out by far the most important part.

Over the next day and a half she only left the room twice to go to the toilet. She was given no food, just a cup of tea and water. Mr Whinnett said: " Joanna was in a state of pure terror and, although she sat down for a while, she most certainly did not sleep. " Her ordeal ended as strangely as it began and without _any_ apparent reason. Just before dawn on Thursday, Joanna was dumped a quarter of a mile from the spot where she had vanished, right under the noses of police officers searching for her. Although the blindfold was removed as she was " kicked out of the car ", Joanna did not catch a glimpse of her kidnappers or their vehicle. " She wears contact lenses and they hurt her eyes, " said Mr Whinnett. " It took her time to adjust to the light when the blindfold was removed

It is divided into three sections: the first records the books that are most frequently referred to in the dictionary, the second lists the books in numerical order, the last registers the books in alphabetical sequence. There are far too few illustrations for the size of the volume: ideally a dictionary of this size should contain many more, displayed in either date, alphabetical or country order, or perhaps in a comparative sequence. None of these methods are followed here. The present volume does not aim to replace _any_ reference book by providing fresh research, but it will certainly stand as the most complete index on the subject. Perhaps its most useful asset is that it enables the user to locate references in relevant literature.

High levels of tension can lead to rigid control; some people when learning to relax report being afraid to go too deeply into the exercises for fear of losing control. It is important to understand that you will always remain in ultimate control when relaxing and that you can always stop the proceedings at _any_ time should they become unpleasant or uncomfortable. Realizing this will gradually help you to gain confidence to go deeper and deeper into relaxation and experience full benefit from it. Conditions Required for Relaxation Relaxation, like any skill, takes time and practice to learn. Significant and lasting gains can be achieved by most people within a month with thirty minutes of daily practice. The best time to practice relaxation is when you are feeling most under stress but often this is not convenient. Don't stick to a single time each day but try to vary it to see if the time of day makes a difference for you. Don't be put off if relaxation doesn't seem to work immediately for you. Give it

The United Kingdom's right to decide for itself on the merits of a single currency is not an important factor in investment decisions.

At the end of the first circuit Brown Chamberlin, who had been jumping sketchily, was pulled up, and as the field came past the stands and swung away into the country again Bregawn kept up his gallop. Towards the top of the hill he made two bad jumping errors but these made little difference to his progress, and with Fifty Dollars More falling at the final open ditch only Combs Ditch looked to have _any_ chance of getting in the way of a Dickinson clean sweep. " Come on, my lot! " The trainer, watching the race on a television screen in the weighing room, had gazed in silence until the field reached the top of the hill and turned towards the stands for the last time. Now he shouted his encouragement, and come on his lot did. Bregawn swept over the third fence from home and made his way into the straight, Pursued by Captain John (who had lost 
122: No. 2123). In my view the solution to the question of statutory interpretation raised by this appeal does not lie in retreating to a rigid and indefensible line. Trade takes place increasingly on an international basis. So does fraud. Money is transferred quickly and easily. To meet these changing conditions English courts are more prepared than formerly to grant injunctions in suitable cases against non-residents or foreign nationals in respect of overseas activities. As I see it, the considerations set out above and taken as a whole lead irresistibly to the conclusion that, when considering the expression " _any_ person " in the sections, it is impossible to identify any particular limitation which can be said, with any degree of confidence, to represent the presumed intention of Parliament. What can be seen is that Parliament can not have intended an implied limitation along the lines of Ex parte Blain, 12 Ch.D. 522. The expression therefore must be left to bear its literal, and natural, meaning: any person. The court's discretion: a sufficient connection with England This conclusion is not so unsatisfactory as it 
123: of giving children access to advanced concepts at a far earlier stage than Piaget would have thought possible. Papert evidently dislikes many of the first uses of computers in education, but is more interested in their power to transform schools than to abolish them. Professional teachers in the UK, even those who are enthusiastic about Papert's ideas, warn of the difficulties to be overcome in curriculum development and teacher training. It is not so much a problem of hardware development outpacing software, or vice versa. It is a more complex tension between the time it takes for _any_ educational system to assimilate innovation, and the pressing need of computer manufacturers and software publishers to market new products. Both teachers and entrepreneurs have to speculate about the impact of microprocessors on society. They are under pressure to resolve questions which can not be settled around a conference table. Recognising the pressures on computer teachers, and the billions of dollars, pounds, francs or yen which give weight to those pressures, does not invalidate a central premise of the founders of the centre. That is, the Third 
124: fact, their programme of studies is a legal contract with their institution, the institution being required to provide a reasonable quality of course. But irrespective of the legal position, the character of the teaching process is such that higher education teachers have to pay attention to the expectations and perceptions of their students. What is so special about higher education as opposed to _any_ other part of the educational system? In one sense, there is nothing special about it. Whether primary, secondary or adult education, the teaching situation is a human transaction, an interchange between persons. For any teaching to be effective, learning and understanding have to occur on the part of the pupil or student. This in itself is a salutary reminder that x's authority in a discipline is not sufficient to generate her authority as a teacher. For that, there has to be some evidence that the pupils or students are responding to what is put before them. In all educational settings, authority as a teacher has to be earned in one's effectiveness as a teacher. There are additional dimensions to the authority of teachers 
125: have been charged with murder or attempted murder in the course of this year. That is an advance on the previous year and a testimony to the Royal Ulster Constabulary. Mr. Stanbrook Would it not be helpful if we used existing machinery more effectively? For example, the reciprocal legislation providing for extraterritorial jurisdiction does not seem much used. In the 16 years in which we have had our part of the legislation, we have applied for only 31 people to be tried in the Republic, of whom only 16 were convicted and the Irish Republic has not applied for _any_ such cases at all. Surely there is a lot of ground here to make up if we are to make the machinery of justice as between the two countries more effective. Mr. Brooke The particular question that my hon. Friend raises is for my right hon. and learned Friend the Attorney-General, but I am grateful to him for reminding me of the precise statistics with which it is always sensible to be armed in any conference on the agreement. Mr. McNamara Will the Secretary of State explain why the Government are still being 
126: , even in dilute water samples or by using other more complex, state of the art, tricks like DNA amplification. Using catechol is relatively simple and cheap. But the snag is that first you have to be able to recover the GEMs to culture them to do the catechol yellowing test. To develop a recovery method, Morgan, Saunders and Pickup used a Gem called Pseudomonas putida mt-2, a modified common soil bacterium which may have wide applications for destroying toxic substances. Their method has been designed for recovering a GEM from water -- not easy because _any_ bacteria in it are much less abundant than, say in soil. This GEM -- like most bacteria -- isn't the smooth cell shape that it looks. Tiny protein structures protrude -- like flagellae to help it move and pili to attach itself to surfaces. Their composition differs from one species of bacterium to the next. So mt-2's purified pili and flagellae were injected into animals so that they rapidly produced antibodies specific to them. These were then collected from their blood and purified. The next step was 
127: an ongoing historical theme. He must write a paper on it some day. But if this were the case, then the fleas had taken a terrible revenge for the loss of their erstwhile companion through history, their life&rehy;support system. Because unlike the marmots, the rats had no resistance to the disease that the fleas carried. And when they died and the fleas had finished feasting on their blood, which was by then putrid and crawling with the bacilli, the fleas looked round for another host, and if they could not find another rat, or _any_ small hairy creature to their liking, they settled for the next best thing, which was usually human. What really fascinated him was the idea that it was such a small thing, in such an obscure corner of the world, and between two such insignificant creatures.

Party animal Richard Smith IT WAS every jump jockey's worst nightmare. A series of bad falls, a year and a half on the sidelines, and a promising career suddenly headed for oblivion. Carl Llewellyn had looked as secure as _any_ pilot could be on National Hunt's casualty-strewn road to success. The Welsh farmer's son had the 1988 conditional jockeys' title already in the bag, and the ink was hardly dry on a retainer with Lambourn handler Captain Tim Forster. Then disaster. A catalogue of injuries included a broken left leg and a dislocated elbow, and left him a spectator on racing's sidelines for 18 months.

129: be disqualified (as opposed to restrained by their own professional ethics) at all, except that in the case of the Church of England some sort of case can then be made out by reason of the right of bishops to sit in the House of Lords. Here, there is further anomaly, for it has been possible in the past for Anglican clergymen to circumvent the disqualification by virtue of the Clerical Disabilities Act 1870, whilst others can not. When the House of Commons considered the matter in 1953, its views were affected by the fact that they were unaware of _any_ evidence of pressure for change from the churches themselves. It can, however, no longer be assumed that that is so, and in any case it is not clear that if a clergyman wishes to stand and electors wish him to represent them the mere fact that the churches do not like the idea has anything to do with matter. For the time being, and probably for the foreseeable future, the rather vague criterion remains that of " episcopal ordination ", vague because that procedure is not peculiar to the Anglican Church

In 1843 there was David earning 3d. a day; Isaac on 5d.; and Thomas with 1&shilling;. A year later and they had all been given a rise of one penny a day. Anna Fleming, a widow, had seven children. Her husband, up to the time of his death, had been a miner although there had been occasions when he had made scarcely _any_ wage -- but still he had never sent his children to the mine. Those of Anna's offspring who were employed, were themselves unable to help her with money. One child was in the care of the Misses Beevers, prominent local philanthropists. One was almost 10, whilst the youngest attended school. Upon application for help she was refused, and nothing was provided to bury her husband either. Indeed, she was asked why she had not sent her children to the mine. The Rev. Thomas
132: Mr Malcolm Brodie, was saying it's between the Blues and the Glens again. He couldn't see _any_ other clubs challenging for the title. That was until Ronnie McFall came to Shamrock Park and in a short space of time we have won the League two years on the trot, runner-up last season and challenging strongly again this season. No club has a divine right to win the League year in, year out as the Glens and Blues have done down through the years. We all go through the bad times so if these Glentoran supporters or any other supporters of other clubs would get behind their team, instead of giving continual stick, perhaps fortunes on the park might change. I think you're missing the point here. You're speaking as a supporter whose team has suddenly came good after years of mediocrity, not one whose team is struggling after years of success. Once the standards have been set, dipping below them is often intolerable. Selectors hand out harsh treatment AFTER the euphoria of Ireland's amazing victory over England last Sunday had died away

Clarke risks rebuff by non-TUC union. By Simon Beavis Labour Correspondent THE Government was warned last night to expect a rebuff as the Association of Professional Ambulance Personnel prepared to ballot members on a deal rejected by the five TUC-affiliated unions for ambulance staff. The association's leaders, who in two days of talks failed to secure _any_ significant improvement in the the 9 per cent, 18-month offer thrown out last month, said that the ballot form would ask if members supported sanctions, possibly including action which would disrupt services to patients. Although the association recommends acceptance, its leaders are sceptical that the 5,000 members will agree, and disappointed that the offer was not increased to 10 per cent during 22 hours of talks. Mr Brian Bruno, a member of the association's executive, said: " There is a fair chance it could be turned

136: in order to ensure the highest standards of protection are afforded to the surrounding natural and visual environments. In this respect, we believe it is vital that comprehensive and enforceable planning conditions are legally attached to planning permission, should you be so minded to recommend that permission be given in your report to the Minister of State for Wales. We have discussed the matter of planning conditions with Clwyd County Council and have examined the latest draft (dated 26th June 1992) of these conditions prepared by the council's officers. Whilst we would like to reserve our position over _any_ additional conditions that we or others may wish to propose in future, we support the County Council's conditions, as drafted. We have expressed our wish to the council that we would like to be consulted over the detailed implementation of the conditions and sincerely hope that we will be allowed to play a constructive part in this process. It remains for me to urge you, on behalf of CPRW, to ensure that comprehensive and enforceable conditions, based on those proposed by Clwyd County Council, are attached to planning 
137: but always decidedly different. Persia meanwhile was digesting the experience of conquest by the Arabs which had begun with Qadesiyah. One of its features was the widespread adoption of Arabic for certain purposes in Persian life until the resurgence of Persian in the eleventh century AD. By 750 the time had come for the caliphate itself to be transformed and for the Umayyad regime to be dislodged. The regime had been under strain for some time, not only up in the Syrian heartland but also in far-away Khorasan in northeastern Persia. This change, which was not provoked by _any_ external force, was inspired by Muhammad ibn Ali, great-grandson of Abbas, an uncle of the Prophet, whence the name of the Abbasid dynasty which now succeeded the Umayyads. It is not perhaps surprising that the source of substitution should have come from the traditional opposition group, the Bani Hashem. Muhammad ibn Ali promoted a campaign which used the medium of itinerant missionaries and was calculated to appeal to most of the people who for different reasons were discontented with the Umayyads. These included the Shiites, supporters

139: all hospitals were made responsible for meeting the interest and depreciation costs of their existing assets and new investment. Contracts or service agreements are the method by which purchasers and providers do business. These set out prices, treatment levels and quality standards and enable purchasers to hold providers accountable for their performance. Cross-boundary flow adjustments to allocations will be replaced by direct billing for services rendered. The quasi-market was therefore an attempt to expose providers to competitive tests of cost-effectiveness and quality while retaining safeguards for the consumer. It was a highly artificial construct with no precise parallel in _any_ other health care system, and predictions about its performance were hard to make. The NHS was sailing into uncharted territory. Setting out to market Introducing market-like mechanisms into a planned system of health care was never going to be easy. Against the timescales set by the government, that contracts for all services be in place by April 1991, it proved a stern test of general management. The first important step was to separate the purchasing and providing functions and devolve services such as personnel and finance to units. 
140: without affecting it. Above this level, however, there is an Earnings Rule, which means that for earnings over a certain amount, a percentage will be deducted until you won't receive _any_ pension at all. Whatever you earn, will be taxed. For this purpose the state pension and your earnings are added together, but the tax is deducted from your earnings. There is a similar earnings rule for the dependent wife's pension, and for this purpose an occupational pension also counts as earnings if the wife is under 60. A widow can earn any amount without losing her widow's pension, although this is taxed. If you want to defer your retirement for up to five years, you receive increments (increases) on the pension. If you wait the full five years, the pension will be one-third higher than what you would have received at age 60. If you have a reduced level of benefit because you have paid too few contributions, carrying on working is one way of improving your pension. However, you do not receive an increment for

" The hard, flat, almost contemptuous note in his voice sent shivers of apprehension feathering down her spine. He hadn't changed, she thought glumly, staring determinedly past his shoulder at the bright steel walls of the lift. Ross was obviously still the same hard, tough personality that he'd always been -- never giving an inch in an argument, or showing _any_ trace of the ordinary human weaknesses which affected everyone else. In fact, she had never known anyone who exuded such arrogant, confident masculinity, such a strong conviction of his own superiority and worth. Even when they had first been married, Ross has always been quite determined that -- " Come on, give me your keys. " " What...? " She looked up, startled to find that they had already arrived at the top floor, and were now walking down the corridor towards her apartment 
142: certainty by describing all of their rights and liabilities in one defined set of documents and excluding all extraneous issues. A further factor which would tend to make such clauses reasonable would be adequate protection by warranties in the final express contract documents. Finally, probably the most decisive factor of all is whether both parties were properly advised legally, and equally skilled technically and commercially, so that they should have been capable of adequately assessing the risks and rewards they were undertaking in the transactions and of producing a contract document which properly reflected this. 1.5.2Party protected by UCTA: _any_ party. Category of contract: all business contracts Section 2(1) of the UCTA imposes a complete ban on any exemption clause giving protection against liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence. Section 2(2) prevents the use of an exemption clause to escape liability for other loss or damage (in general this is taken to refer to property damage and economic loss) caused by negligence, unless the clause can satisfy the test of reasonableness. There is some question as to the true extent of s 2. First of all

Not for one moment. " She'd had enough now. Why didn't he just go while she could still maintain _some_ degree of composure, this deliberate distancing of herself from the rapture that had possessed her before the telephone rang? Luke scowled savagely. " Are you really suggesting that -- " " Yes, I am. I saw through it, you know. I guessed it was part of your plot to steer me right away from Rob -- in case I corrupt him. " She gave a tinkling little laugh. " You'd hoped that after a love scene with you I'd have no further interest in Rob.
144: at all easy to define just what this quality is. Incidentally, now that I come to think further about it, it is not quite true to say there was no dispute as to who were the great butlers. What I should have said was that there was no serious dispute among professionals of quality who had any discernment in such matters. Of course, the servants' hall at Darlington Hall, like any servants' hall anywhere, was obliged to receive employees of varying degrees of intellect and perception, and I recall many a time having to bite my lip while _some_ employee -- and at times, I regret to say, members of my own staff -- excitedly eulogized the likes of, say, Mr Jack Neighbours. I have nothing against Mr Jack Neighbours, who sadly, I understand, was killed in the war. I mention him simply because his was a typical case. For two or three years in the mid-thirties, Mr Neighbours's name seemed to dominate conversations in every servants' hall in the land. As I say, at Darlington Hall too,
145: of cases it was the women who managed the money by taking responsibility for day-to-day budgeting arrangements, paying the bills and organising the family finances. Consequently, they had the worry of juggling finances and trying to make ends meet. However, they did not always have control over the money or make the key decisions over how it was spent and distributed. In general, the women in the study had spent their wages on food, items for the children or had saved _some_ money while their husband's wages were spent on larger bills. Usually the women kept some money " for their own " to buy themselves make-up, tights or clothes, and pay for the occasional trip or night out (see Pahl, 1989). Once unemployed, this small sum was the first economy all the women made. Even if they received unemployment benefit it was usually spent entirely on food. In other words, they cut first and most their personal consumption rather than collective consumption. With the loss of their pay-packet and " their " money they lost a sense of independence and freedom --

To keep them at bay, I engaged Alison in close conversation. It turned out that she was a freelance editor for OUP, with a daughter in her early teens and a seven-year-old son for whom she had been caring single-handedly since her husband's untimely death. I found it supremely restful to talk to her, and when we finally parted I told her I hoped we might see each other again _some_ time . A lanky cleric oozing good intentions and bad faith then launched into an address that was squirmingly anxious to avoid giving offence to persons of any or no belief while still suggesting that, who knows, there might after all be, you know, something out there. While we all coughed and looked at our shoes in embarrassment, the gleaming casket containing Dennis's mortal remains was spirited away to the nether regions of the crematorium. Afterwards we trooped outside and stood awkwardly saying our good-byes. I

149: I was to see Magee's huge tweed factory, or mill, on the outskirts of town, a building that resembled a giant Gothic grammar school with stained glass office windows. Away from the square, near my Bed and Breakfast, I discovered the Roman Catholic Church of the Four Masters, standing on a rise. Apparently the Four Masters were seventeenth-century Franciscans from the Friary, who wrote a pro-Catholic history of Donegal. Built of soft brown stone, the church closely adjoined a tall pointy-roofed Round Tower with a cross on top. This tower was visible from _some_ way away, and with its backdrop of dark conifer-forested hills, it reminded me very much of the tower at Glendalough. I assumed that a medieval abbey had been restored, as at Holy Cross. However, a friendly priest emerged and told me that the whole church had been built, in an old-fashioned style, in 1935. The Round Tower was in reality the church tower. Inside, I heard mutterings from a Confession box, but stifled my curiosity and hurried away. Almost on the opposite

So this, with _some_ restrictions, confines the membership of the committee to people who are at work. But then of course the difficulty arises because these are difficult times, there is a recession, people are losing their jobs day by day and we didn't think it was appropriate to start applying some guillotine on people's election rights and their membership of the committee. So, of course, we've stretched things a bit. The amendment will of course not remove anyone during their period of office if they lose their job. Of course not, they've been elected for a period, they serve to the end of that period, whether they're made redundant or not, so they go on for the four year term. And also, of course, we've so worded the er, amendment to rule to

It was this concern which was most evident in a timely article in the Fortnightly Review, in 1922, which stated that:... if the return to Conservatism is to be something more than the transient apparition of a spectre from the past, and its voice in national affairs not merely to be a sepulchral warning against the dangers of rash courses, the Conservative leaders must bestir themselves to _some_ purpose... [ the Conservative Party ] must be ready to meet the programme of the Labour Party not simply with a non-possumus but with an alternative which will in some measure satisfy certain of the needs which Labour is concerned to satisfy, and at the same time avoid the perils with which it insists Labour policy is beset. The message was clear, the Conservative Party would have to broaden its policies in order to attract the newly enfranchised working-class voter and remain in power. Indeed, the Conservative Party did begin to widen its potential appeal by issuing a plethora of pamphlets in the 1920s: Aims and Principles (1924), What Unionists have done for Workers (1925)

Staff at Presto stores throughout the region wore Yellow Brick Road T-shirts and caps while a charity disco and pea and pie supper was held at Darlington Memorial Hospital.
