  • A M D G Beaumont Union Review Summer 2020
    A M D G BEAUMONT UNION REVIEW SUMMER 2020 "And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year: ―Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.‖ Well, we didn‘t see this one coming. Having written in the last REVIEW about ―a year like no other‖ which concludes in this Edition, no one thought we would be living through another. Over 90% of the BU have been confined and we have seen the cancellation of The HCPT and BOFs Pilgrimage to Lourdes, The Verdun Battlefield Tour, The BUGS Meeting at Westerham and Ant Stevens much anticipated Musical ―Streetwise‖: Now rescheduled for 24-29 May 2021. Much quoted at the moment ―We will meet again, Don‘t know where, Don‘t know when but I know we will meet again some sunny day: - Actually it looks like a cloudy day in the Autumn if we are lucky! I was amazed by the response to my Easter Message: I don‘t know whether it could be described as an ―Urbi et Orbi‖ moment but it did bring a huge response from OBs worldwide. One such from Patrick Agnew which I share with you:- ―Indeed. We have taken a lot for granted, during our years; much to be grateful for. Humanity is vulnerable to many things, some much worse than seen now. Globalization has it‘s many drawbacks, as well. Our precious little planet, in such perfect evolved balance, for so many eons, is also threatened by the economic ―progress‖ of mankind, whose numbers compound upwards and ravage resources, and are poisoning them.

  • The Just William Series of Books Was Born Richmal Crompton Lamburn in 1890
    PEPYS JUST WILLIAM CARD GAME Comments about the cards in the game Richmal Crompton who wrote the Just William series of books was born Richmal Crompton Lamburn in 1890. She was the daughter of a clergyman and became a schoolmistress in 1914. She gave up teaching because she had begun to write part time in 1919 and was successful, so she decided to make it her full time job. She was very active in the Women’s Suffrage movement. Unfortunately she contracted poliomyelitis in 1923 and as a result she lost all use of her left leg and became confined to a wheelchair. She never married. The very first William story was published in Home Magazine and was entitled “Rice Mould Pudding”. The books about William were very popular and she wrote a total of 38 in all. Her other books also sold well and she wrote 41 adult novels, which she considered to be her main work, and another 9 books of short stories. All the William series were collections of short stories and they sold over 12 million copies in the UK alone. The illustrator of the William books was Thomas Henry Fisher (known as Thomas Henry) who illustrated Richmal Crompton’s books from 1919. Strangely, he never met her until 1954. He was also well known for his cartoons for Punch and London Opinion from 1945 to 1952. The very popular radio series of 1948 was broadcast on Children’s Hour by the BBC with David Spenser playing William and the stuck up Hubert Lane played by Charles Hawtry.

  • A Feminist Criticism of House
    Lutzker 1 House is a medical drama based on the fictitious story of Dr . Gregory House, a cruelly sarcastic, yet brilliant, doctor . Dr . House works as a diagnostician at the Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital where he employs a team of young doctors who aspire to achieve greater success in their careers . Being a member of House’s team is a privilege, yet the team members must be able to tolerate Dr . House’s caustic sense of humor . Because of Dr . House’s brilliance, his coworkers and bosses alike tend to overlook his deviant and childish behaviors . Even though Dr . House’s leg causes him to be in severe pain every day, and has contributed to his negative outlook on life, both his patients and coworkers do not have much sympathy for him . The main goals of House’s outlandish behaviors are to solve the puzzle of his patients’ medical cases . Dr . House handpicks the patients whom he finds have interesting medical quandaries and attempts to diagnose them . By conferring with his team, and “asking” for permission from Dr . Lisa Cuddy, Dr . House is able to treat the patients as he sees fit . He usually does not diagnose the patients correctly the first time . However, with each new symptom, a new piece of the puzzle unfolds, giving a clearer view of the cause of illness . Dr . House typically manages to save the lives of his patients by the end of the episode, usually without having any physical contact with the patient . Dr . House has an arrogant and self-righteous personality . Some of the lines that are written for Dr .
