The Centre for Policy Studies has four functions at the moment: i. advice; study groups; publications; propagation of the government's policies 2. Each of these undertakings might perhaps be as well managed, or housed, in other ways: The 'advice' might as well be prepared in the homes of those concerned; the study groups might perhaps be managed through the Research Dept.; the publications could, no doubt, be managed by the CPC; and the propaganda side could conceivably be managed privately too. 3. Yet these activities taken together; the recollection of what has been done in the past as well as what is now being done; and the association of the names of Keith Joseph and of yourself with the Centre's past work; all these make the Centre a distinct institution of its own, associated in the public mind with an original contribution to the Conservative thought.

  • THE STOIC July 1977 159 Vol XXVII Number 2 July 1977 EDITORIAL
    THE STOIC July 1977 159 Vol XXVII Number 2 July 1977 EDITORIAL It would be nice to be able to offer those who have just finished their '0' and 'A' levels a word of comfort before the results come: "They don't matter that much. They're only exams. If THE STOIC you mess them up, there's always a second chance." It would be nice; unfortunately the truth is, as always, less pleasant. Today the competition outside the little world of Stowe is very hard indeed. No one needs to be told about the frighteningly high standards needed for University entrance: no courses are easy to get into, and Medicine and Law are particularly hard. Anyone hoping to sail to University and success without a maximum of effort is going to be bitterly disappointed. The days when a father could get his son into Oxbridge by taking the Dean out to dinner have gone for good-if, indeed, they ever existed. There is only one way to get on after Stowe: by doing well at Stowe and especially in public exams. So, when academic results are the most important criterion for University entrance, further education and professional qualifi· cations, it is the duty ofboth the boys and the School to ensure that these are as good as possible. Is it not therefore perfectly reason­ able that all our efforts should be directed towards this aim? Should not all distractions and obstacles be removed? Is it not time to discourage boys from wasting their time and ability on diversions that will be damaging to their results, such as an excess of sport, drama.

Estimating Returns to Office in Post-War British Politics Andy Eggers – Harvard University Jens Hainmueller – Harvard University March 22, 2008 While the role of money in policymaking is a central question in political econ- omy research, surprisingly little attention has been given to the rents politi- cians actually derive from politics. We use both matching and a regression discontinuity design to analyze an original dataset on the estates of recently de- ceased British politicians. We find that serving in Parliament roughly doubled the wealth at death of Conservative MPs but had no discernible effect on the wealth of Labour MPs. We argue that Conservative MPs profited from office in a lax regulatory environment by using their political positions to obtain out- side work as directors, consultants, and lobbyists, both while in office and after retirement. Our results are consistent with anecdotal evidence on MPs’ outside financial dealings but suggest that the magnitude of Conservatives’ financial gains from office was larger than has been appreciated.

  • Survivorman Competition Will Place a Fan in the Wild with Les Stroud
    Survivorman Competition Will Place a Fan in the Wild with Les Stroud Given no shelter, no food and no water, contest lets candidates put their talents to the test Muskoka, Ontario – March 12, 2015 – Ever wonder what it’s like to be Survivorman? Now is your chance to find out, in the company of Survivorman Les Stroud, himself. The filmmaker and survival expert will be inviting one fan to join him in the wilderness, with no food, no water, no shelter and no camera crew, for an episode of Survivorman. To be considered, all you have to do is convince Stroud, via uploading a five to 10 minute video, that you’re the right person for the job. Aspiring contestants can visit http://www.lesstroud.ca/survivorman-competition for details about the contest. Submissions will be accepted until 11:59 p.m. ET on Wednesday, April 1. “Year after year, I’ve battled the elements, gotten lost at sea, had frightening run-ins with animals, and I’ve done it all alone, with only my camera,” says Stroud. “I’m ready for some company. If you’d like to join me in my wilderness journey—and you’re ready to take whatever curveballs Mother Nature will throw at you—I look forward to seeing your video.” As the star of OLN Canada and Discovery Channel’s survival show, Survivorman, Stroud can extract himself from just about any dire situation: he’s survived in a raft at sea, fought off the frigid cold, and more, logging a half-million miles trekking across the world in the process.

  • Helle of Norway Unveils New Survivorman Neck Knife
    Media Contact: Anders Haglund Helle Knives of Norway [email protected] +46 70 1046085 Media Contact: James Graven Treehouse Communications [email protected] +1 970 420 1409 Helle of Norway Unveils New Survivorman Neck Knife Mândra knife designed and field-tested with Les Stroud Holmedal, Norway and Las Vegas, NV – (January 19, 2016) – Continuing a tradition of handcrafting knives designed and tested in the outdoors, Helle’s latest full tang knife is a collaborative work with Survivorman Les Stroud. Pronounced mondra, the Mândra knife was designed and tested in the rugged and overwhelmingly beautiful natural set- ting of Romania during filming of the latest Les Stroud Survivorman film project. Stroud’s recent expedition took place in the remote Carpathians, a 1,450-kilometer mountain range extending through the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Ukraine, Romania and Serbia. Amid this backdrop of vast hardwood forests, isolated limestone cliffs and caves, Helle and Stroud sought to refine a new knife for practical use and reliability. Years ago the Helle design team and Les Stroud came together to create a practical, useful knife based on Helle’s 80-year tradition and Stroud’s discerning tastes. An all around bestseller, the Helle Temagami continues to attract accolades and praise for its simple, beautiful design. Building on this mutual respect for quality and function, initial designs for the new Mân- dra knife were conceptualized over several months. Only then were prototypes hand- made at the Helle factory in Norway and sent to Romania for field-testing. Further ad- justments and refinements were made using invaluable feedback from Les from his ex- tensive solo excursion.
