    Sir Horace Wilson and appeasement

    No full text
    Sir Horace Wilson was Neville Chamberlain’s confidential adviser while the latter was prime minister. The article addresses three questions. First, what was Wilson’s role in Whitehall in connection with rearmament and foreign policy ? Second, did he diminish the influence of the Foreign Office? Third, what contribution does his defence of appeasement make to understanding of a subject that continues to divide historians ? The article concludes that Wilson played an important role in enabling Chamberlain to pursue his foreign policy goals. However, when there was outright disagreement between Wilson and the Foreign Office, it was the Foreign Office view that prevailed. Finally, the evidence of Wilson’s words and actions, both in 1937–9 and later, broadly supports R. A. C. Parker’s post-revisionist interpretation of appeasement, particularly as regards Munich, but Wilson was a good deal firmer in 1939 about Britain’s will to fight, if necessary, than his critics then or later allowed

    From the Roman Republic to the American Revolution: readings of Cicero in the political thought of James Wilson

    No full text
    As a classical scholar and prominent founding father, James Wilson was at once statesman, judge, and political thinker, who read Cicero as an example worthy of emulation and as a philosopher whose theory could be applied to his own age. Classical reception studies have focused on questions of liberty, civic virtue, and constitutionalism in the American founding, and historians have also noted Wilson’s importance in American history and thought. Wilson’s direct engagement with Cicero’s works, however, and their significance in the formulation of his own philosophy has been long overlooked. My thesis argues that Wilson’s viewpoint was largely based on his readings of Cicero and can only be properly understood within this context. In the first two chapters of my thesis I demonstrate that Wilson not only possessed a wide-ranging knowledge of the classics in general, but also that he borrowed from Cicero’s writings and directly engaged with the texts themselves. Building upon this foundation, chapters three and four examine Cicero’s perspective on popular sovereignty and civic virtue, situate Wilson’s interpretations within contemporary discussions of Roman politics, and analyse the main ways in which he adapts Cicero’s arguments to his own era. Wilson retains a broader faith in the common people than seen in Cicero’s opinions, and he abstracts from Cicero a doctrine of sovereignty as an indivisible principle that is absent in the text; nevertheless, Cicero’s conception of a legitimate state and his insistence on the role of the people provided the foundation for Wilson’s thought and ultimately for his legitimization of the American Revolution. At the same time, like Cicero, Wilson views the stability of the state as resting in the personal virtue of the individual. While his enlightenment philosophy imparts optimism to his conception of the good citizen, his definition of virtue closely follows that of Cicero. As the final chapter of my thesis concludes, their individual interpretations of these theories of popular consent and virtue were instrumental in forming Cicero’s and Wilson’s justifications of civil disobedience

    Heller UM, Karsch F. One-loop perturbative calculation of Wilson loops on finite lattices. Nuclear Physics, B. 1985;251(2):254-278.We present the one-loop (order g 4) perfturbative calculation of the expectation values of Wilson loops and Polyakov lines on finite asymmetric lattices. Analytical as well as numerical results are given. We also give some applications of these results pertaining to the “ratio method”, the Coulomb potential on finite lattices, the internal energy of the gluon gas at high temperature and the order parameter of the finite temperature deconfinement transition

    Cubaris lewisae nom. nov. Cubaris granulatus Lewis, 1998b (not C. granulatus Collinge, 1915b). Remarks. Lewis (1998b) described a new species of Cubaris from Lord Howe Island that she named C. granulatus. This name has already been used by Collinge (1915b) for a species from India. These species are clearly different, and the species from Lord Howe Island must be given another name. We propose the name Cubaris lewisae nom. nov. to replace C. granulatus Lewis, 1998b.Published as part of Lillemets, B. & Wilson, G., 2002, Armadillidae (Crustacea: Isopoda) from Lord Howe Island: New Taxa and Biogeography, pp. 71-98 in Records of the Australian Museum 54 on page 9

    The annual publication of the students of Wilson Junior High School, Lethbridge, Alberta.(1968-69)pdfThe RETROSPECT 1968 -1969 WILSON JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL Lethbridge, AlbertaTHIS YEARBOOK IS DEDICATED TO MISS VERNA GRAY Miss Gray first saw the light of day in the village of Wawanesa, Manitoba. While still a preschooler she and her family moved to Calgary and later to Lethbridge. She attended Westminster School and the Collegiate. After graduating from Grade Twelve she enrolled in a Homo Economics program at the University of Alberta in Edmonton. She interrupted her degree program to attend the Calgary Normal School. Her life of teaching began in Fleetwood School where she taught grades two. three and four. Some of her summers were spent attending summer school and culminated in the awarding of the degree of Bachelor of Education to her. Miss Gray then changed her subject field to that of Home Economics. She taught this to grades seven, eight and nine students in the gymnasium on the old Westminster School grounds. When the new Collegiate was built the program was moved into this building. Miss Gray had joined the staff of Hamilton but her classes were held in the high school. In 1954. one year oftor Wilson Junior High was built. Miss Gray joined their staff and has remained with us teaching in the same field. She is very much interested in travel and reading. She is noted for her dili­gence and fairness. The students and staff of Wilson wish her many more years of teaching and respectfully dedicate this yearbook to her.G. R CASTLES n 5C.. m a R. K.

LANGLANDS n COPRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE Tis education forms the common mind. Just as the twig is bent, the tree’s inclined. Some of you may wonder why you must go lo school. You allend so that you will benefit to the greatest extent possible from living in such a great country as ours. Aristotle was once asked how educated men were superior to those uneducated. He replied, "As much as the living are to the dead." A great philosopher was quoted as saying, "\ consider a human soul without education like marble in the quarry, which shows none of its inherent beauties till the skill of the polisher brings out the colors, makes the surface shine, and discovers every ornamental cloud, spot and vein that runs through the body of it." One of the most valuable results of all education is the ability to make yourself do the things you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not. This is one of the hardest things to do for man is a procrastinator - he likes to put oft doing things. We live in a changing world. Our school year will be altered next term. New methods of teaching are being tried. New courses are being introduced. We are progressing. We must adapt or go the way of pre­historic animals. You can't stop change, just as you can't put the toothpaste back into the tube. I wish all of you a very pleasant holiday and may your year be a successful one. The "olden age lies onward not behind The pathwai/ through the past has led us up The pathway through the future will lead us on and higher.H E MAJOR n i o F. J. UMERIS O CO.

Mr. Umeris, our coach, did a great job in getting us ready for the championship game against Paterson. During the season, our team managed to win five games out of the eight, losing two games to Catholic Central and a tie with Paterson. We thus won the league championship and proceeded on to play the final game for the city championship, which we won 2-1 over Paterson. Many thanks go out to the team who did a job well along with Mr. Umeris doing the school a great deal of honor. Our junior team however did not do so well due to a bad first half season in which they lost three games, tied one, and managed to v/in one game. In the second half of the season they made a great comeback by winning three games and tying two. Making it to the finals, they played against Paterson losing the game by a score of 1-0.(maybe it was because they didn t have a team manager) Another fine coach, Mr. Cook, did a great job in preparing the team and just about pulling them through. It was a fine effort on the part of Mr. Cook and the Team. DRIVING INSTRUCTOR: Now, tell me. What would you do if your brakes suddenly failed to work?

On Saturday March 1, 1969 a large contingent of athletes from the club participated in the Annual Lethbridge Herald Junior Indoor Track and Field Meet. Here we competed against athletes from Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia and Montana. Congratulations go out to Ken Shaskin who jumped 19T 62” *1. 4. in the long jump to establish a new provincial batam indoor record. Our next competition was our own school track meet which was held on Friday May 23 . Students placing first and second at our track meet went on to represent the school at the city track meet. Holly Tokariuk threw the shot put 2Sri" to break the previous mark of 26r 6". Cleo Psaltis bettered the record mark in the Midget Girls Triple Long Jump jumping 13 feet 10j inches better than the pre­vious record of 13T 9i". Wendy Stegan took a full second off of the old record in the girls 440 open by coming in with a time of one minute 10.7 seconds. Brenda Schmidt won the 60 yard dash, the 100 yard dash, the running broad gump and came in second in the hop step and jump. Brenda as a result of these efforts was the individual winner in the junior girls division. Peter Shaw was the junior boys champion. Ken Shaskin captured the senior boys title. We also captured the Senior and Junior Team Championships. The school tied for first place standing in the meet.BAND - GRADES 8 & 9 front row: Don f^ Jocque! ne W.. Shoron G-. Rolhy D.

    Evolution of the G+C content frontier in the rat cytomegalovirus genome

    No full text
    Within the 230138 bp of the rat cytomegalovirus (RCMV) genome, the G+C content changes abruptly at position 142644, constituting a G+C content frontier. To the left of this point, overall G+C content is 69.2%, and to the right it is only 47.6%. A region of extremely low G+C content (33.8%) is found in the 5 kb immediately to the right of the frontier, in which there are no predicted coding sequences. To the right of position 147501, the G+C content rises and predicted coding sequences reappear. However, these genes are much shorter (average 848bp, 50% G+C) than those in the left two-thirds of the genome (average 1462bp, 70% G+C). Whole genome alignment of several viruses indicates that the initial ultra-low G+C region appeared in the common ancestor of the genera Cytomegalovirus and Muromegalovirus, and that the lowering of G+C in the right third has been a subsequent process in the lineage leading to RCMV. The left two-thirds of RCMV has stop codon occurrences at 67.5% of their expected level, based on a modified Markov chain model of stop codon distribution, and the corresponding figure for the right third is 78%. Therefore, despite heavy mutation pressure, selective constraint has operated in the right third of the RCMV genome to maintain a degree of gene length unusual for such low G+C sequences

Selected by - Mavis Tennant Room 208 ) Princip al1s Moss age I am sometimes asked why our grades seven, eight and nine are separated from the other grades* Educators today believe that students in this age group should be under one roof* Here an educational program can be designed to meet the needs, interests and abilities of bays and girls during early adelesconce. One of the early men looking into such grouping was the superintendent of schools of Berkeley California. His name was Dr. Frank Bunker. He introduced the junior high school as we know it today. Columbus, Ohio also claims credit far the first junior high. Both of these schools opened in 1909* Actually these junior high schools were opened because of overcrowded conditions in the high school* If a new school was built it was always the senior high that moved in. Today we find that the trend toward separate junior highs is still progressing. But now the junior high school is considered on an equal basis with the senior higfr. We now get new buildings for these grades. We find that students in the modern junior high school have an opportunity to study a greater variety of subjects. There is a greater chance for enrichment. There are more co-curricular activities in which the student may participate. Here he can explore his interests, abilities and talents. Staff members, particularly in special subject fields can be attracted to teach in this typo of school. More and better equipped laboratories are available to the students. Students tend to remain in school longer. The great difference that students find between elementary and secondary schools is bridged by the junior high. We say a fond farewell to our grade eight students. Possibly next year grade nine will be housed in our building. As Lieutenant Colonel John Glenn recently said on his return to earth, "Exploration and pursuit of knowledge always pay great dividends." We wish you continued success in your quest for knowledge.L.

Although the elected members and the room repre­sentatives had different views on different subjects we did manage to become at least a little bit efficient. Seme of our accomplishments this year were acquir­ing and posting a directory in the front hall; obtaining Walt Disney films from Calgary for film nights for our own students; buying supplies for the Photo Club; and holding a rummage sale of all lost and found articles. We also organ­ized two skating parties for the student body, which were a great success and enjoyed by all. The operetta, ,TThe Taming of the Shrew" went off well, although it involved a lot of work and practise by performers, Mr. Collet and Mr. Walker. We all enjoyed putting it on for you and your parents. We would like to thank the teachers for their help and their kind cooperation.

Disregarded A lone plane winged its way across a grey ana desolate sky, hoping against hope that it3 gasolino would hold out, but with no land in sight the outlook was very grim. "S, 0, S." ,rS. 0. S.", the little plane called out desperately but silence was the only answer. Tho engine coughed, spluttered and slowly came to a stop causing the plane to plunge downward and crash into the sea. It did not sink however but floated on the surface with the easo of a cork. Soon after this the stranded plane resumed its plea for help. An oceanliner, having heard the message, answered in a loud booming voice, "I am the oceanlinor Whitestar and I would like you to give me your name and any other information about yourself such as, where you came from and where you are heading.” The plane whimpered, "Please, come and get me first for I am cold and lonely.” Before the oceanliner could reply a great wind came up and giant waves splashed over the frightened plane. When the storm subsided the "little plane, suprisingly found himself afloat beside the Whitestar* ”How dare you scrape the naint off my hull?" roared the oceanliner indignantly. "Exactly who do you think you are?” "We 11 first of all my name is Pinky and I was made in Halifax,” replied the plane innocently. "When I was in India I rescued tho Maharanee so you see I am quite important," "Hahl" "You think that's important well, I carried President Kennedy once,” the oceanliner said snecringly, !and I am sure ho is more important than any old Maharaneec " This went on and on till finally the little plane said, "Oh, let's stop this nonsense for I want you to take me home right away because I am beginning to sink," "Go on and sink then I don't care, I've wasted too much time on you already," and with this the oceanlinor set off with a triumphant toot of its horn. The plane struggled and struggled but to no avail and at some time during that nigit the sea claimed its bedraggled and water­logged victim. - Irene Orsten Ricky Lee: According to the dictionary a mongrel is an animal of mixed breed, or kind. Well if a Chinese and a white person got married, would their baby be a mongrel?T a $The penny Ono joyous day, I was born, I originated from a shiny block of copper and in the mint I was made into a sparkling new penny. While at the mint I came into contact with some dull, drab coins. irWhat are peasants like you, doing here?" I exclaimed in a haughty manner. An old 1922 coin spoke up in a high-pitched voice, "We are here to be melted down again, ye young whippersnapper?" Before I could retort I was placed in a container with other new pennies. I was taken in a truck to a magnificant department store. Thinking I was to live in luxury I was very much angered and surprised when I was placed in a cold, dark cash rogister. Mel A brand new pennyl But I soon left there l A rich lady received mo and I was put into much use. Soon my glorious copper coat became dull and leaden colored like the coats of the coins I had met in the mint. I was soon once again in a cash rogister and this time was given to a grubby-pawed little boy who received me as change. The boy jabbed me into his ventilated pocket. On the way homo I slipped through a hole in his pocket and landed in the gutter. I was so dirty I wasn‘t noticed. I won!t even be able to be melted down again. You may wonder where I am now. Well, to tell you the truth, I*m still lying in the musty gloomy gutter, unnoticed and not quite as proud as before. Ken Proskf! 11 _.
