We were pro- perly impressed at the number and beauty of the entries. We met hundreds of persons—persons new to our horse show ken who radiated friendliness and enthusiasm for the breed as well as their own charges. On our cover this month we feature this beautiful setting for the 1955 This year's national was the same kind of a show. True, National Morgan Horse Show.

  • A Police Whistleblower in a Corrupt Political System
    A police whistleblower in a corrupt political system Frank Scott Both major political parties in West Australia espouse open and accountable government when they are in opposition, however once their side of politics is able to form Government, the only thing that changes is that they move to the opposite side of the Chamber and their roles are merely reversed. The opposition loves the whistleblower while the government of the day loathes them. It was therefore refreshing to see that in 2001 when the newly appointed Attorney General in the Labor government, Mr Jim McGinty, promised that his Government would introduce whistleblower protection legislation by the end of that year. He stated that his legislation would protect those whistleblowers who suffered victimization and would offer some provisions to allow them to seek compensation. How shallow those words were; here we are some sixteen years later and yet no such legislation has been introduced. Below I have written about the effects I suffered from trying to expose corrupt senior police officers and the trauma and victimization I suffered which led to the loss of my livelihood. Whilst my efforts to expose corrupt police officers made me totally unemployable, those senior officers who were subject of my allegations were promoted and in two cases were awarded with an Australian Police Medal. I describe my experiences in the following pages in the form of a letter to West Australian parliamentarian Rob Johnson.

    P ARK HOUSE STABLES SUMMER MAGAZINE 2019 INTRODUCTION P ARK HOUSE STABLES orse racing has always been unpredictable and in many ways that is part of its attraction. It can provide fantastic high H points but then have the opposite effect on one’s emotions a moment later. Saturday 13 July was one of those days. Having enjoyed the thrill of watching Pivoine win one of the season’s most important handicaps, closely followed by Beat The Bank battling back to win a second Summer Mile, the ecstasy of victory was replaced in a split second by a feeling of total horror with Beat The Bank suffering what could immediately be seen to be an awful injury. Whilst winning races is important to everyone at Kingsclere, the vast majority of people who work in racing do it because they love horses and there is nothing more cruel in this sport than losing a horse, whether it be on the gallops or on the racecourse. Beat The Above: Ernie (Meg Armes) is judged Best Puppy at the Kingsclere Dog Show Bank was a wonderful racehorse and a great character and will be remembered with huge affection by everyone at Park House.

  • Polybius and Livy on the Allies in the Roman Army
    POLYBIUS AND LIVY ON THE ALLIES IN THE ROMAN ARMY Paul Erdkamp* From the fourth or third century until the beginning of the rst century bc, Rome’s armies were also the armies of her allies. The socii and nomen Latinum raised at least half of the soldiers that fought wars for Rome. The Italic allies were clearly distinguished from the non-Italic troops, such as Cretan archers or Numidian horsemen, by the fact that they were governed by the formula togatorum. This can be concluded from their ‘de nition’ in the lex agraria from 111 bc: socii nominisve Latini quibus ex formula togatorum milites in terra Italia imperare solent. The formula togatorum is seen as a de ning element, distinguishing the Latin and Italic peoples from Rome’s overseas allies. Although in the second century bc a con- sciousness of Italy as a political and cultural unity gradually emerged, it was still referred to as a military alliance of Roman citizens and allies at the end of that century.1 The beginnings of this system remain in the dark, due to the inadequacies of our sources. The foedus Cassianum between Rome and the Latin League (traditionally dated to 493 bc) supposedly established a federal army under Roman command, but next to nothing is known about its functioning. The participation of the allied peoples was based on the treaties between their communities and Rome. The position of the Latin colonies was slightly different, because their obligations were probably based on the lex coloniae governing each Latin colony.2 We may assume that the role of the allies was re-de ned * I wish to thank John Rich, Luuk de Ligt and Simon Northwood for their many valuable comments.

  • Year-Round Vegetable Cooking How to Prepare Artichokes for Cooking Artichokes Are Easy to Cook, with Just a Little Preparation
    SOUPS Year-Round Vegetable Cooking How to Prepare Artichokes for Cooking Artichokes are easy to cook, with just a little preparation. 1. Rinse the artichokes under cold, running water. 2. Trim the artichoke stem approximately 1 inch. (The stem is an extension of the heart) 3. Trim the top of the artichoke approximately 1 inch. 4. With scissors, trim tip of petals to remove any remaining thorns. Trim stem to approximately How to Steam Artichokes 1 inch. Steaming artichokes is the ideal cooking method for maintaining their high-nutrient content. Stove top Using a deep pot, arrange artichokes either stem up or down—preferably in a steamer basket— keeping the artichokes above the steaming water. If a steaming basket is not available, place artichokes directly in water, keeping them only partially submerged. Cover the pot and steam over rapid-boiling water (making sure to maintain the water level) until artichokes are tender. (Optional: use a broth instead of water for added flavor.) Depending on size and quantity, total cooking time can range from 30-50 minutes. After the Trim about 1 inch off the artichokes are tender, use tongs to carefully lift them out of the pot. top. Testing Your Artichokes for Doneness: However you decide to cook an artichoke, it is important to know when it is done. The best way is to use a toothpick or fork to poke the base of the artichoke to check if it is tender all the way through to the heart. If there is no resistance, it’s done and ready to eat or use in a recipe.

  • The Women in the Book of Judges
    THE WOMEN IN THE BOOK OF JUDGES by M. O'CONNOR Ann Arbor, MI 48104 I. In the great history that spans the Pentateuch and the Former Prophets in the Hebrew Bible, women play a comparatively minor role, whether as singular individuals or as the generic women-mother, wife, sister, daughter-of the legal materials. 1 Social roles control, to some extent, the depiction of major individuals, from Eve, proto-sister, proto-wife, and proto-mother, down to the queens of the Books of Kings. 2 The Book of Judges is exceptional in this respect: it abounds in stories involving women. 3 In the Pentateuch and in the rest of the Former Prophets the women of the stories seem to serve as points of reference in narrative strategies, against which the movements of the major, male actors may be calibrat~d. 4 Miriam, for example, is depicted I. Robert Boling, Peter T. Daniels, Marsha Dutton, Adria Libolt, Clay Libolt, J. D. Quinn, and Phyllis Trible read and commented on an earlier draft of this paper, and I am happy to thank them. The Tobit, Praxilla, Martial, and Statius references I owe to Quinn, and the bell krater is on loan from him. 2. On queens and queen mothers in Israel and Assyria, see Hallo (1964, pp. 161-162) and references; on Assyrian-period Arabian queens, Winnett and Reed (1970, pp. 71-72); on Cleopatra, Bowersock (1983, pp. 40-46) and references; on Ma via, Bowersock ( 1980) and Mayerson (1980; note especially the comments of Theodoretus, p. 130). 3. The literature on Judges is voluminous and useful, from Burney (1918) to Boling (1975) (cited below as Anchor Bible) and beyond.
