For those unfamiliar with the term, “at the coalface,” in a coal mine, “the coalface is the part where the coal is being cut out of the rock.” At the coalface is a phrase from the United Kingdom (and Canada) that is defined as “doing the work involved in a job, in real working conditions, rather than planning or talking about it.” The tools are in place—so, as Eric says—please keep up the good work, use social media and your own social channels to share and celebrate the benefits and beauty of natural grass. Be proud of the industry we’re all involved in and have fun with it. Let’s reclaim the language we use. Don’t be afraid to shout it from the rooftops.

PREFACE This subject was chosen with a view to recording the work done by women in various phases of the freedom struggle from 1857 to 1947. In the course of my study I found that women of India, when given an opportunity, did not lag behind in any field, whether political, administrative or educational. The book covers a period of ninety years. It begins with 1857 when the first attempt for freedom was made, and ends with 1947 when India attained independence. While selecting this topic I could not foresee the difficulties which subsequently had to be encountered in the way of collecting material.

Available online at http://classics.mit.edu//Homer/iliad.html The Iliad By Homer Translated by Samuel Butler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BOOK I Sing, O goddess, the anger of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Jove fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another. And which of the gods was it that set them on to quarrel? It was the son of Jove and Leto; for he was angry with the king and sent a pestilence upon the host to plague the people, because the son of Atreus had dishonoured Chryses his priest. Now Chryses had come to the ships of the Achaeans to free his daughter, and had brought with him a great ransom: moreover he bore in his hand the sceptre of Apollo wreathed with a suppliant's wreath and he besought the Achaeans, but most of all the two sons of Atreus, who were their chiefs. "Sons of Atreus," he cried, "and all other Achaeans, may the gods who dwell in Olympus grant you to sack the city of Priam, and to reach your homes in safety; but free my daughter, and accept a ransom for her, in reverence to Apollo, son of Jove." On this the rest of the Achaeans with one voice were for respecting the priest and taking the ransom that he offered; but not so Agamemnon, who spoke fiercely to him and sent him roughly away.

  • REPRESENTATIONS of MIND by David Lindeman a Dissertation
    REPRESENTATIONS OF MIND by David Lindeman A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland July 2019 © 2019 David Lindeman All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT After defending the view that we can read off the metaphysics of the things we talk about from the form and interpretation of the language we use to talk about things, I develop and defend an account of the form and interpretation of propositional attitude reports (and some closely related constructions) and then read off the metaphysics of propositional attitudes. Views on the metaphysics of speech acts, propositions, and propositionally articulated thoughts also fall out of the account. The result is a tightly knit sets of views which I think together solve a number of outstanding philosophical problems. Given the centrality and importance of the attitudes and reports thereof to our making sense of ourselves and others as minded beings, not to mention their centrality to many domains of philosophy, the hope is that this makes a contribution to our self- understanding. It should also be a contribution to cognitive science. Committee: Steven Gross (advisor), Justin Bledin, Robert Matthews, Michael Williams, Michael McCloskey ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This is a progress report, extracted from an enormous, spatiotemporally distributed and disorganized corpus, spread over countless documents, handwritten and typed, alongside barely legible notes sprawling up and down the margins of hundreds of books and articles with different physical embodiments. It is, in fact, a work in progress. Like most longish works, it was composed over a longish period of time – by various time- slices, not all of whom agree with one another.
