Crossing Person Response Functions
The substantive interpretation of crossing item response functions (IRFs) is fairly well-known. For example, Wright (1997) clearly illustrates how crossing IRFs create a differential ordering of items by difficulty below and above the intersection points. What has not been as clearly realized, despite Wright's valiant efforts in 1992, is that crossing person response functions (PRFs) also cause problems with the substantive interpretation of person performance. The ordering of persons below and above the intersection points varies when PRFs cross. The purpose of this note is to illustrate crossing PRFs, and to show the substantive impact of this situation.
Mosier (1940, 1941) is usually cited as one of the first researchers to discuss PRFs, although graphical displays representing PRFs can also be found in the early work of Thorndike, Thurstone, and several other 19th century researchers working in the area of psychophysics. Operating characteristic functions for dichotomous responses have been proposed by Rasch (1960/1980) and Birnbaum (1968). The Rasch Model for dichotomous responses can be written as
and the Birnbaum Model for dichotomous responses as
where θ is a parameter specifying the location of person on the latent variable, δ is the difficulty or location of item, a is a discrimination parameter in the Birnbaum model, and c is the lower asymptote of the function in the Birnbaum model. If we select a particular person, such as Person A, then Equations 1 and 2 can be used to define person response functions. The Rasch PRF for Person A is
while the Birnbaum PRF is:
It should be noted that cA is conceptually closer to a real "guessing" parameter in the Birnbaum PRFs, and that αA represents person sensitivity to a particular subset of items.
Engelhard (in progress) describes five requirements of invariant measurement that must be met to yield useful inferences for measurement in the social, behavioral, and health sciences. These five requirements are
1. The measurement of persons must be independent of the particular items that happen to be used for the measuring: Item-invariant measurement of persons.
2. A more able person must always have a better chance of success on an item than a less able person: non-crossing person response functions.
3. The calibration of the items must be independent of the particular persons used for calibration: Person-invariant calibration of test items.
4. Any person must have a better chance of success on an easy item than on a more difficult item: non-crossing item response functions.
5. Items must be measuring a single underlying latent variable: unidimensionality.
Requirements 1 and 2 address issues related to PRFs.
The Figure illustrates the effects of crossing PRFs. Three PRFs were constructed for two situations: Rasch PRFs that do not cross (Panel A) and Birnbaum PRFs that do cross (Panel B). As shown in Panel C, non-crossing PRFs yield comparable person locations over subsets of items centered around easy items (-2 logits) to hard items (+2 logits). If PRFs do not cross, then Persons A, B, and C are ordered in the same way across item subsets. In other words, item-invariant measurement is achieved with the Rasch model.
Crossing PRFs based on the Birnbaum model (Panel D) yield person ordering that varies as a function of the difficulty of the item subsets. For example, Person A is the lowest achieving person with the lowest probability of success on the easy items, while Person A is the highest achieving person on the hard items. Easy item subsets yield persons ordered as A < B < C, while hard item subsets yield persons ordered B < C < A. In other words, the ordering of persons is not invariant over item subsets with the Birnbaum model.
This note calls attention to the idea that model-data fit can be conceptualized in terms of both IRFs and PRFs (Engelhard, in press). Typically IRFs and differential item functioning analyses are explored. Our work suggests that researchers should also begin to think more systematically about differential person functioning. It is important to recognize the items may function differently over different subgroups of persons (differential item functioning), but it is also important to recognize that persons may not function as intended in their interactions with subsets of test items (differential person functioning).

Ashtalakshmi Temple - Besant Nagar,
Vel Murugan 11/07/2014 12:53:00 AM Amman, Chennai
Besant Nagar Ashtalakshmi Temple
The Ashtalakshmi Kovil is a Hindu temple, which lies on the shorelines near the Elliot's beach, in Chennai, India.
The temple is dedicated to the goddess Lakshmi, and her eight primary forms - the Ashtalakshmi - the giver of all eight forms of wealth, namely, offspring, success, prosperity, wealth, courage, bravery, food, and knowledge. The sanctums are depicted on a multi-tier complex in such a way that visitors could visit all the shrines without stepping over any of the sanctorum. The temple was constructed on the wishes of Sri Chandrashekarendra Saraswati swamigal of Kanchi Mutt.
The temple was constructed at the efforts taken by the devotees under the leadership of the erudite Scholar Mukkur Srinivasa Vardachariyar and others. The foundation was land in the year 1974.The first Consecration Ceremony. (Kumbhabhishekam -Kudamuzhukku) was done on 5 th April,1976.
The temple's architecture is unique, with the deities installed in four levels. In this temple the Ashtalakshmi are present in four levels. The shrine of Lakshmi and her consort Vishnu is in level two. One starts the worship from here. One can take the stairs and the path leads to third floor which has the shrines of Santhanalakshmi, Vijayalakshmi, Vidyalakshmi and Gajalakshmi. Then again take a few steps and we reach the shrine of DhanaLakshmi, which is the only shrine on the fourth floor. Exiting the main shrine, in the first level, there are shrines for Aadilakshmi, Dhaanya lakshmi and Dharyalakshmi. The temple also has Dashavatara (avatars of Vishnu), Guruvayoorapan, Ganesha, Dhanwanthari and Anjaneyar deities.
Special Features: The temple was designed and constructed in the shape of 'AUM',the First Vedic Mantra, Pranava. As the temple is in the AUM shape it is well known as the OMKHARAKSHETRA.
Ashtanga Vimana: As the temple is dedicated to Mahavishnu and Ashta Lakshmis, the construction is on the models of Ashtanga vimana (Eight Parts) style. This is one of the very ancient styles of temple construction. This Ashtanga vimana style is found in Tirukkotiyur Where Sri Ramanuja learnt the meaning of the Ashtakshara mantra at the feet of Tirukkotiyur Nambi, Madurai (Koodalazhagar), Tiruttangal, Kanchi(Vaikuntanathar Temple) and Uttiramerur.

10 And here is my judgment about what is best for you in this matter. Last year you were the first not only to give but also to have the desire to do so.
12 For if the willingness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what one does not have.
7 Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

'He's Such A Huge Support In My Life', Anushka Sharma On The Bond She Shares With Her Brother Karnesh
Shobhita DuttUpdated on Aug 18, 2016, 12:46 IST
bollyspice
Anushka Sharma had really surprised the entire industry when she had come up with her own production venture, NH 10, last year. And the fact that movie performed so well only proved that not only is she a great actress, but she's a great filmmaker as well. But not many know that it's not just Anushka Sharma who turned producer with NH 10. It was also her brother, Karnesh. The two started their production company, Clean Slate Films, together. And now the brother-sister duo is all set to come out with their second production venture, Phillauri, which also stars Udta Punjab actor Diljit Dosanjh.
In a recent interview to DNA, Anushka Sharma talked about her bond with her brother, and also how the brother-sister team manages their production house together. After all, they're the only bro-sis team who run a production house together in Bollywood!
Anushka spoke about how both she and Karnesh are creatively similar.
"We will always be on the same page when it comes to the creative aspect of what we want to produce. Karnesh is very good at seeing the potential in things, while I feel that I am involved more on the creative side. He instantly knows if a concept will do well or if a certain script can work, so we can get buyers for the film."

She also spoke about how she and her brother learned the tricks of the trade together.
"Production is a collaborative effort and I give as much credit to my brother Karnesh and the people who are in our company, like our executive producer. We are new to the industry and not from here, we are working alone and still learning the ropes of production. The good thing is that we have the power to follow through our convictions, we don't get scared. When we believe in something, we will push for it. That's how NH10 happened... on paper, it was a difficult film."

Anushka talked about her fond Rakhi memories with her brother.
"My earliest memories of Raksha Bandhan, are of Karnesh saying, 'I don't want a rakhi'. He's always evasive of this celebration while I was an enthusiastic child wanting to tie him that rakhi. I wanted to get him like really big rakhis. Today, we are best friends and have supported each other through everything. He's been such a huge support in my life and I think that's what this relationship of ours is about."


The institution was established in the year 1926 by late Dr. Jitendra Nath Majumder, in order to commemorate the name of his illustrious father late Dr. Pratap Chandra Majumder who was one of the pioneers of homoeopathy in India and popularized homoeopathy in Bengal. He established this institution at first in a rented building at Mechhua Bazaar Street, opposite to the YMCA building. Later, in the year 1930, the present plot of land at 14/1, Narkeldanga North Road, Kolkata was purchased by him and a temporary structure was constructed to start the out-patient department. In the year 1932, the founder, late Dr. Jitendra Nath Majumder handed over the institution to the Board of Trustees duly registered under Charitable Act XXI of 1860. In the year 1934, the college department was shifted to the present hospital premises.
The college is equipped with laboratories, library and our own anatomy dissection hall. The hospital is also equipped with 24-hour emergency services. Special facilities like x-ray, ECG, eye, dental, ENT, Physiotherapy are provided and medical treatment facilities in both morning and evening OPD is there in full form.
The institution had been affiliated with the State Faculty and General Council of Homoeopathic Medicine, West Bengal, since its inception of DMS (Diploma in Medicine & Surgery, a diploma course in homoeopathy) in the year 1944. On the enactment of Homoeopathic Bill in 1963, this institution enjoys the affiliation from the Council of Homoeopathic Medicine, West Bengal and also been recognized under the Central Council of Homoeopathy (CCH), New Delhi, since its formation. It has a homoeopathic degree course (BHMS) affiliated to Calcutta University and the West Bengal University of Health Sciences and is recognized by the Central Council of Homoeopathy (CCH) and AYUSH under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Govt. of India and is recognized by the Govt. of West Bengal.
Prof.(Dr.).Bidhu Bhusan Jana with wide academic experience serves as the principal of the college.

I wish I had the level of devoution and discipline they they seem to have.To spread the message of the bible to strangers even though they are persecuted ,and quite often rejected, yet they keep on ,keeping on, because the message of the bible moves them that much.How can I meet other Ex-Jehovah's Witnesses in my area who understand what I am going through?" OUR RESPONSE: Dear friend, You must feel so lonely.Here are a few suggestions: The best place to go to find Ex-Jehovah's Witnesses in your area is through Facebook Groups and the Ex-Jehovah's Witness Meetup website.There you will be able to enter your zipcode to see a list of Ex-Jehovah's Witness Meetup groups in your area.Example: John 1:1 (Christian Bible)In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God. They are not the same, and don't let their tricky word changes decieve you.John 1:1 (JW Bible)In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was a God. Cheers ~~ Conrad Craww,***the jw organization is as corrupt as they come.......***Some maybe , but that can probably be said about "some" of any organized group.
"I recently left the Jehovah's Witnesses and I miss the fellowship I had with my friends in the Watchtower organization.and all other religions belong to the devil and their members will die at armageddon..........yet non of their predictions come true............... JW's deny the Trinity of God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit.It is a noble cause, but some people can probably get violent ,if you show up on there door talking about religous beliefs that differ from theirs.I don't agree with everything they say, but I have to respect what they are trying to do .

Could Your Christian Legacy Be Of Witchcraft?
Chuck (daniel70shavua) 05/09/2019 05/09/2019 Placeholder
What will you be remembered for after you die before the Second Coming? Will you be known as a famous witch charmer in a religious organization? I am reminded of Kenneth Hagin (d. 2003) of Rhema Church fame. Not Jesus fame. A career of witchcraft and he is awaiting judgment. Today there are many who brag about their magical prowess. Heed this message.
I got some skin on the Latter Day Rain movement. AKA the Pentecostals and the Charismatics. While I know friends who identify themselves as such, this blog is not attacking them, but addressing their origins.
The fastest growing denomination in the world is the signs and wonders movement. The guy at the top of the Vatican, Jorge, is charismatic. He prays in tongues. Does that prove that he is saved? How about speaking in tongues that interpret to be blasphemy? Check out Pope Francis' speaking in tongues. So the answer to my question is an affirmative "no". "Oh but Chuck! Jesus says those who speak in tongues are saved." I will tell them, no. Y'shua says those who are saved shall speak in tongues. Do not swap the relationship. A turtle is an animal. But not all animals are turtles. Let us reason together. For one to speak in tongues the Brith Hadashah only testifies that it came from Adonai when giving the Good News to those who are lost but then found by the Shepherd. Today, many speak in tongues and lay hands on people as they soak their blessings and pass on their iniquity by the law of imputation. Do you know someone who is into that sort of things?
I have witnessed how a number of friends have been destroyed by this witchcraft garbage over a course of ten years of seeing their lives. This is not the mighty deed of Adonai. It comes from the adversary. Nadab and Abihu made fire to appear on the altar and Adonai called that strange fire.
You may agree or not agree. Signs and wonders are real. But the fact that you see fire coming out of nowhere only testifies of a supernatural matter. However, it by no means testifies to the Presence of the Set Apart. "You shall not touch the profane."
Many speak in tongues and lay hands on people as they soak their blessings and pass on their iniquity .
2 Timotiyos 3
Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive.
2 Timotiyos 3 | 5 -7
The following passage details a child king in the House of Judah who got into mediums and witchcraft early. 20 years ago, he could have gotten into D&D. 10 years ago he could get into Pokemon and Harry Potter. Today, he could get into video games and magic mushrooms in Colorado. But you could always get into the Magic Kingdom of Disney.
Sordid History in Judah
Manasseh was the son of King Hezekiah (good king) and was the grandfather of another good king, Yehoshayah (Josiah, the namesake of actor Shia Labeouf). Yehoshayah spawned the last three kings of Judah and one was his grandson, until its destruction in 586 BC off the face of the earth. Until 1948. That is for another blog. Check out the genealogy of the kings in Matthew 1, all the way until the King of kings, Eashoa Msheekha.
2 Chronicles 33 (Hinnom is Geena/Gehenna)
1 Manasseh was 12 years old when he became king, and he reigned 55 years in Jerusalem. 2 He did evil in the sight of Adonai, just like the abominations of the nations that Adonai had driven out before Bnei-Yisrael. 3 For he rebuilt the high places that his father Hezekiah had demolished, he re-erected altars for the Baalim, made Asherah poles, and bowed down to all the host of heaven and worshipped them. 4 He built altars in the House of Adonai—of which Adonai had said, "My Name will be in Jerusalem forever." 5 He also built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courtyards of the House of Adonai. 6 Furthermore, he made his children pass through the fire in the valley of Ben-hinnom and practiced witchcraft, divination and sorcery, and consulted ghosts and spiritists. He did much evil in the sight of Adonai, provoking Him to anger.
Manasseh of Judah reigned in Judah on the throne of Dawid from 12 to 67 years old. During his time, he gained by occult means as he passed his sons and daughters to the fire, which is speak for Baalim sacrifice. Today it is equivalent to abortion of your own sons and daughters in exchange of something.
Verse 2 says Adonai finds him evil. I guess Manasseh will not hear "Well done My good and faithful servant" any time soon before the throne of his King. In verse 3, he prepared the shrines and high places in Judah for sacrifice and then in verse 6, Manasseh sacrificed by burning his own royal seeds and flesh. It says he became a witch. He practiced magik and inquiring of spirits (divination). He was a sorcerer. Again, Adonai looked upon his career and He finds Manasseh evil.
Can Christians practice spirits and consultation? That is an oxymoron. No.
Repent.

The film Joker – starring the amazingly versatile Joaquin Phoenix – now playing in the capital's theaters – is a graphically violent and deeply despairing portrayal of a society sans any empathy for "losers" – those who end up believing they are one.
Every society has its share of drop-outs, misfits and the unlucky. Good, caring societies try and minimise both their pain and their isolation. Bad, uncaring societies shrug their shoulders, lock up the losers and carry on. Where do we stand in this spectrum?
India – a leader in assimilation
India has a long tradition of living with non-conformists. Babasaheb Ambedkar, the Dalit icon, was one such. His progressive ideas on social reform only had lukewarm appeal in the Constituent Assembly debates. Neither did Hindu activists have universal appeal. The need to present a united front and get on with nation building diluted resistance to opposing points of view. But it also never built a new social ethic with wide public support. We got a wonderful constitution. But all it proves is that we are good at dampening dissent and in doing so hope to render it harmless. It rarely happens that way, as we have seen in Kashmir.
Resolution of buried discontent remains a problem
Sheikh Abdullah broke the status quo in 1930 through a peasant revolt against the ruling dynasty. Subsequently, the goal of independence from the British and post-Independence, the substitution of the ruling dynasty by elected representatives – aligned well with his own objectives. Over the two decades it took for these ambitions to be realised, the more substantive differences between him and the Congress, around the distribution of local political power remained subsumed. Thereafter he remained locked up for a decade from 1953 till he reconciled to the prevailing stalemate in Kashmir. Since 1989 Kashmir has been a cauldron of dissent. The most recent extended lock-down has yet again dampened dissent. We assimilated Kashmir but have yet to win the battle for minds and hearts.
Imagine if our poorly managed and institutionally weak metros go the same way. The film – Joker situated in mythical Gotham City – a replica of New York, spells out how cities become dysfunctional, crime endemic and institutions crumble till they are saved by a mythical Batman in the face of a hapless police force.
"Urban Naxalites" or unpaid government foot soldiers
In the urban context back home, it is puzzling that the few who work to highlight deficiencies in governance systems for the social protection and inclusion of the poor should be labelled pejoratively as "Urban Naxalites". They are anything but that.
The Naxalites of the late 1960s and early 1970s believed that a violent, rural revolution was possible and around the corner in Naxalbari, West Bengal. They were wrong. The one lesson missing in their little Red Books was how to deal with a seductively supple State and an extraordinarily passive population, both of which are ready to absorb organised violence or prolonged civil unrest and carry on.
Far from seeking to topple the State, the "Urban Naxalites" of today believe in preserving the State and improving it to deliver services more effectively to the poor. The Nobel Prize for Economics, this year, has gone to three economists – two Americans and a Frenchwoman – all of who have spent the last two decades experimenting how to make education, health and social protection interventions more effective, not outside the State architecture – as the Naxalbari gang would have liked – but very much within the existing State architecture. These die-hard, do-gooders need to be celebrated for their efforts, not reviled because they are showing a mirror to our grotty selves.
Consider also the issue of human rights. Those who have the courage and the doggedness to highlight "zulum" during the inevitably heavy handed rule by the uniformed forces with a bureaucracy in disarray because of conflict in central India, the North East and in Kashmir, do so not to destroy the Indian State. They act as unpaid agents of the State to make the administration of conflict zones less intrusive and liveable for innocents.
Human and Property Rights
Human rights come with a fundamental belief in "property rights" both of which are anathema to Communists for whom, the State is all encompassing and people exist because the State exists. By extension if tribes in central India or in the North East prefer to preserve their life in the forests, even though valuable natural resources lie unexplored and unexploited beneath them, the "property rights" principle advocates giving them the right to do so whilst reserving the right of industry or the State to persuade the owners to sign away their rights against agreed compensation. Ending a basic commitment to either human rights or to property rights ends the incentive to be productive and respectful of the law. We know that well since the Soviet Union collapsed in 1989.
Cities at risk
In two decades more Indians will live in cities than outside them. Cities – particularly metros – with their higher population density, the pressures of synchronised co-existence, their 24X7 eco-system and the anonymity of its citizens, lend themselves to dystopia unless they are carefully managed.
What if city managements abandon the principles of human and property rights? How then would city managements be held accountable? More importantly how then would city managements hold empowered elites accountable? Would government itself, not become a mere hand-maiden of the rich and the powerful – usually a select few within the top 0.1 per cent of the population?
Good governance is more that mere resource extraction
By abandoning the principles of human and property rights, governments would resemble the erstwhile hapless zamindars, who had little to do beyond extracting as much revenue as they could, for feeding the beast in London – the East India Company. We would have wiped out every institution we have built since 1947.
We must choose. Either we should submit to becoming a big, all-pervasive State like China and hope that it will throw up benevolent, far sighted leaders. Or we must act on our belief that a State exists only because citizens choose to believe in it. Democracy is never divisible. Either it exists or it doesn't. There is no "happy" path which can take us to a "Democracy with Indian Characteristics".

A minister in the Holyrood government has spoken of the important part that evidence-based psychology interventions will play in implementing Scotland's new mental health strategy.
"I am delighted to have been invited to speak at the British Psychological Society conference. In Scotland we can rightly be proud of what we have collectively achieved in the field of mental health, however, challenges still remain. In our new Mental Health Strategy we identify one of the key change areas as rethinking how we respond to common mental health problems. The application of evidence based clinical psychology interventions will play an important part in this, particularly in meeting our commitment to deliver faster access to psychological therapies."

Royal Artillery Unit Histories
By rflory, 5 January , 2004 in Unit histories

Posted 6 December , 2005 (edited)
I am interested in books on RHA units serving with Anzac or Aust Mtd Div's in the EEF.
I have a copy of 'The Honourable Artillery Company in the Great War' by Goold Walker.
But, can you please confirm if there are any other books about RHA units that were attached to Australian or New Zealand mounted divisions in the Middle East?
I have not been able to locate any other significant souces- I suspect other units (excluding the HAC account by G-W) attached to these Div's did not publish any accounts?

I wonder if you could help me again. Does your History of the 77th Bde, RGA, France 1916-19 contain any detail of the 116th Seige Bty on either of these two date: 2/5/1917 or 2/5/1918?
I'm interested in a casualty who served under an alias. His CWGC details are (with his real name):
Name: HORGAN, GEORGE
Initials: G
Rank: Gunner
Regiment: Royal Garrison Artillery
Unit Text: 116th Siege Bty.
Service No: 61698
Additional information: (Served as BELL). Son of Martin and Sarah Ann Horgan, of 5, Wolseley St., Bermondsey, London.
Casualty Type: Commonwealth War Dead
Grave/Memorial Reference: II. Q. 18.
Cemetery: DUISANS BRITISH CEMETERY, ETRUN
He served under the name "GEORGE BELL" and SDGC lists him as such, but as DOW on 2/5/1917.
As the CGWC age seems to be one year out, it might be explained by the fact that his DOD is wrong on teh CWGC register.

I am in the early stages of researching the Camberwell Gun Brigade, and specifically Bombardier Tommy Rose (Service no: 6147, RFA B Battery, 156th Brigade, 33rd Division). I would be interested to know if you have anything on him, he died of wounds on 2/8/16 and whilst a long shot a date of initial injury would be useful as I will be at Kew early next year but I guess he probably wasn't important enough to be mentioned in the War Diary by name when he got injured. (He is buried in Rouen suggesting he probably died in one of the field hospitals there?)
I would also be very interested in any recommendations you may be able to make to read up on the Camberwell Gun Brigade. I have a friendly librarian who can access most things via the British Library.
Many thanks for your time.
*****Edited.*****
Just to say that I have now found a date of injury, unbeknown to us it appears he was a local Councillor. I have been ploughing through the local papers from the establishment of the CGB onwards and yesterday reached the time of his death, to find it was front page news. He received a minor shrapnel wound just below the elbow on 19/7/16 whilst setting up his battery near a "small wood situated between Fricourt and Mametz. This wood had been taken by our troops after a stubborn fight, as the number of dead lying around testified. To use my brother's words, it was a 'very hot location'", presumably part of the Battle of Bazentin Ridge. He ended up in No. 12 General Hospital Rouen, expected to make a full recovery and wrote home saying he would shortly be sent back to England. Obviously something went wrong somewhere and he died at 3.00 a.m. on 2/8/16 with his shocked family receiving both a letter from the matron warning that his condition was now serious and official notification of death in the same post on 5/8/16.
I would still be interested in any recommended reading you may be able to suggest - cheers.

Neddan: I can find only two RA officers with the surname Henry serving in 1883:
1. Colonel G C Henry who was serving in India
2. Lieutenant and Quartermastr R. Henry who was serving in Carmarthen.

I cannot help much other that to say that you are correct in assuming that his injury took place during the Battle of Bazentin Ridge. On the night of 19 July 1916, the batteries of 156th Brigade were in place near Bazentin-le-Petit Wood.
The only book that I aware covers 156th Brigade is "The History of the 33rd Divisional Artillery in the Great War 1914-1918, by J Macartney-Filgate. The War Diary for 156th Brigade, RFA for the period Feb 1915 to Apr 1919 can be found at the National Archives under WO95/2413. Regards. Dick Flory
Chris B wrote: "I'm interested in a casualty who served under an alias. His CWGC details are (with his real name):
Name: HORGAN, GEORGE alias George Bell."
Chris: The history of the 77th Brigade, RGA under 116th Siege Battery, RGA lists Gnr. G. Bell as Killed in Action at Feuchy on 1 May 1917 along with the Battery Commander, Major J D D Brancker and seven more other ranks. The battery command post was hit by shell fire twice during that period so he may have been killed during one of those events. "Soldiers Died in the Great War" (the book) indicates that he was KIA on 2 May 1917.
Anthony Piggot wrote: "I don't suppose there's anything on Royal Field Artillery, 15th Bde, for 21 August 1914?"
It would appear to be very unlikely that any fire incident, friendly or otherwise, occurred to the 15th Brigade, RFA on 21 August 1914. According to the "Narrative of the 5th Divisional Artiillery1914-18" the field artillery brigades of the Divisional Artillery, including 15th Brigade, RFA detrained at Landrecies and Le Cateaaau on the 20th of August and on the 21st started their march to Dour, reaching it on the 22nd of August. There is no mention of any of the brigades coming under fire during that time. The first guns of the 5th Divisional Artillery were brought into action early on 23 August when guns of 120 Battery, 27 Brigade, RFA supported an infantry attack near St. Ghislain. Regards. Dick Flory
thanks for the info Dick, was working on old story from grandad that his mother was daughter of a Captain will follow up info provided as possible connection with Aberystwyth so maybe Carmarthen man could be a connection
sorry to be a pain any chance there would be a Captain Henry RA around 1905-1908 in Malta as his daughter born there 1883 in regimental births as RA possible promotion ? later on as my gt grandfather seems to have arrived with rifle brigade at Malta 1905 and left Oct 1908
thanks in advance Neil
hi Dick
returning to this earlier reply would you have any further info on Col G C
regards Neil
The incident (more details on: http://1914-1918.invisionzone.com/forums/i...topic=41541&hl= ) occurred while a battery was on march, just north of Le Cateau on the 21st, when it came under (presumably small-arms) fire from French territorials, presumably at a road block. This appears consistent with the above. The only artillery death on that day was from 15th Bde. I was looking for some corroboration.
The correct man is 63852 Bombardier James William Ketteridge, RFA
He was born on 5 November 1891, the son of William Ketteridge of Waggon Lane, Lower Tottenham, Middlesex, a munitions worker. He was educated at St. James School, Fore Street, Upper Edmonton and enlisted in the RFA on 12 January 1911. On 27 June 1914 he was awarded his 2nd Class Certificate at Army School. He married Mayr Florence, daughter of Benjamin Robert Singleton, late the Northampton Regiment at Kildare Parish Church in 1914 and they has a daughter, Rosary Annie Le Cateau Ketteridge born on 20 December 1914. He was qualified as a First-Class Signaller. He went to France with 11th Battery, 15th Brigade, RFA (5th Division) and on 21 August 1914 while reconnoitering at midnight at LeCateau he was shot by the French by mistake.
There is a photo of him in DeRuvigny's Roll of Honour, Part 1.

Hello Dick,
If times permits could you do me a precis of this units history in WW1
The Story of the Monmouthshire Volunteer Artillery (266 Bde, RFA TF)
Location:North London
Could you please look for me in your book the Short record of war services of the 7th Brigade RFA.
I already have the London Gunners come to town book and it doesn't have the sort of info I need.
Does your book have a total number of casualties and award index for the 19th Bty (later to become C235 Bty I believe).
I know it is unlikely but if there any mentions of Gnr William Glover of the 19th Bty that would be fantastic.
Many thanks for that - much appreciated.
would you have any knowledge of movement between East India Company artillery units and RA units as possibilty my missing Capt Henry could have some connection with Addiscombe House the military arm of the East India Company training cadets for artillery and engineers though it closed in 1861
regards Neddan
pud2006
I don't see the units in your list, so I don't suppose that you have any information about the 221st Siege Battery RGA, or the 33rd Brigade RGA, particularly around October 1917?
Ever hopeful

I am looking for information on my grandfather who according to his war card was in Egypt WW1 with a qualifying date of 25/12/1915 as a driver/gunner with Royal Field Artillary. This is a real surprise to us as we had always believed he was posted to Germany. He definately ended up in germany as he married there and had 3 children before returning to England and remarrying.
His name was James Stuart Ebbs, if anyone can give mne information or point me in the right location I would be extremely grateful. He looks to have received the Victory and Royal Star as part of his service

Martyn: The brigade was originally designated as 4th Welsh Brigade, RFA (T.F.) but was redesignated as 266th Brigade, RFA (T.F.). It went to France on 27 Nov 1915 and on 21 Dec 15 took over a reserve position near Albert. In early February it entrained for La Valentine and on 11 Feb 1916 it embarked for Alexandria, where it joine the 53rd Welsh Division on the edge of the Libyan Desert. In May 1916 the brigade became a part of the Suez Canal defences at Ferry Post. In Nov 1916 the brigade marched across the desert to Palestine where it took part in the First and Second Battles of Gaza; the Capture of Beersheba; the Battle of Khuweileh; the action at Tel 'Asur; ending the war just beyond Akrabeh. Men of the brigade received 2 DSOs, an MC/Bar, 2 MCs, 3 DCMs, 2 MM/Bars and 2 MMs. Throughout its war service it was commanded by Lt.-Col. T W Pearson. Regards. Dick Flory

Stu: The "Short Record of War Services of the 7th London Brigade, RFA (TF) has no mention of Bdr. Glover, nor does it list the total number of casualties or awards. It is basically a summary of the brigade war diary. The data on decorations can be obtained from "The 47th (London) Division 1914-1919" which lists the names of all recipients of decorations (both British and foreign) and indicates the brigade of most of the gunners.

Running in Salt Lake City, Utah. Best routes and places to run in Salt Lake City.
Capital of Utah, Salt Lake City is one of only two major urban areas in the Great Basin. To its northwest is the Great Salt Lake, and to its southeast are the Wasatch Mountains, containing several narrow glacial and stream carved canyons. The highest mountaintop visible from the city is Twin Peaks, reacheing 11,330 feet. Salt Lake City was founded in 1847 by Brigham Young, Isaac Morley, and George Washington Bradley. Originally named "Great Salt Lake City," the word "great" was dropped from the official name in 1868 by the 17th Territorial Legislature. This is a guide to running in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Salt Lake City is regarded as a recreational mecca. Some of the best skiing in the world can be found in the mountains only 1/2 hour from the airport. This is a young and outdoorsy city, with some great running opportunities offering lots of variety. There are some wonderful parks and riverside trails right near the city center. But best to get a bit outside the city, and enjoy the unique running along Great Salt Lake, the spectacular canyons, or some great trail running in the mountains nearby.
Note: While Salt Lake City itself is flat, it sits at 4200 feet. You'll feel the altitude and the sunshine. Dress and hydrate accordingly.
Our thanks to Holland Newton, Director of the Virtual Running Club, HQ in SLC, for his help with this guide. See their upcoming races.
This is our SLC "Runseeing" Tour. Within a fairly compact area of downtown, near all major hotels and the Convention Center, pass by the Mormon Temple, State Capitol, Public Library, arena, & major shopping venues.
A quick escape to nature right from downtown. Pleasant canyon run alongside a creek. A pretty steady uphill climb. Main paved Canyon Road is closed to cars on odd days May-Oct. Numerous additional trail running options.
Located on the east edge of downtown, the Bonneville trail is a well-maintained singletrack that follows the Ice Age Bonneville Lake Shoreline. Hilly, with great views.
Close to most of Salt Lake City's popular offices and hotels, Liberty Park is an easily accessible, and popular downtown running spot.
Located in Southern Salt Lake City, this is the "crown jewel" among regional parks in the Salt Lake Valley. Popular with runners, Sugar House Park offers 110 acres of lush, rolling green space in a great SLC neighborhood.
A tour of both Liberty Park and Sugar House Park, using some pretty neighborhood streets connecting them, which are ~2 miles apart. Total is 7.5 miles, fairly flat.
Attracting lots of bicyclists, walkers, and runners, the route is mostly paved and fairly hilly. Running this route, you'll pass several of Salt Lake City's famous landmarks.
The Great Salt Lake sits around several islands, and offers outstanding scenery and recreational opportunities. There are many running options in this area. Antelope Island State Park is among the highlights.
The University of Utah has a beautiful campus with the mountains so close you can almost touch them. One can put together a nice 3-4 miles within the campus or around the perimeter. There are also great trails nearby.
Located in the western part of Salt Lake City, this paved trail is great for long distance running. This 8.1 mile route follows the beautiful Jordan River, passing through several lovely parks.
A canyon in the Wasatch Mountains. Great for trail running. Big variety of trails. Hilly and challenging.
The Draper/Sandy area has 90+ miles of trails. A highlight is Corner Canyon, with 1,100 acres of trails of various length and challenge for running. Connects to the Bonneville Shoreline trails.
Great summer trail running at this famous ski resort 45 minutes from SLC, courtesy of the Snowbird Tram and Preuvian lift. A treat is to run through the 600 foot tunnel into mineral basin.
ummer thunderstorms. Even on hot days, nights cool off quite nicely. Spring and fall are delightful, with warm days and cool nights. Winters are cold but not frigid. It can snow in Salt Lake City, but not to the magnitude of the nearly 500 inches that fall in Little Cottonwood Canyon only 25 miles away. Still, when running in winter, bring the right clothing and Yak-Traks. Just outside the city toward the mountains, the climate gets different, quickly.
Salt Lake City offers a variety of hotels. Most of these hotels are located in the downtown area, east of I-80 and clustered near Temple Square and the Convention Center. There are good running routes near the downtown hotels, such as Liberty Park, Parley's Creek Trail, and City Creek Canyon. If you're looking for something a little more quiet, there are a few places to stay on the outskirts of town, over by City Creek Canyon.

Savage Weekend (1980)
By Richard Winters
My Rating: 6 out of 10
4-Word Review: The first slasher movie.
Maria (Marilyn Hamlin), who has a very contentious relationship with her ex-husband Greg (Jeff Pomerantz), but who is now in a relationship with Robert (Jim Doerr) a successful businessman, decides to take a weekend trip with some friends to upstate New York. Robert is having a large boat built there and wants to see its progress. The quiet country atmosphere seems like the perfect spot to getaway until a masked killer shows up killing each of them one-by-one.
While Halloween typically gets credited as being the forerunner to the modern day slasher film it's actually this one that was the first and don't let the release date fool you. This was filmed in the summer of 1976, a full two years before Halloween came out, but was shelved by its distributors as they thought the concept of a mysterious masked killer was 'too weird' and wouldn't catch on only to eventually release it to theaters once they saw the success of Halloween.
The concept for this came about completely by accident. Writer/director David Paulson was originally hired to write a screenplay for a completely different type of movie, but the investor then retracted the majority of the money he promised leaving Paulson with a mere $20,000 to work with. He decided with such little funds he'd be forced create a story that required a single setting and then came up a scenario that would make the characters stay there and thus the killer-on-the-loose idea was born.
The critics were originally not kind: TV Guide subscribed this as a 'reprehensible exploitation film' and 'the gore effects are extremely gruesome', which just isn't true. At best the blood is quite minimal especially when compared to today's slashers. In fact you'll find more explicit gore in modern dark comedy films like Shaun of the Dead than you will here.
Critic Joe Baltake criticized the Nicky (Christopher Allport) the gay character stating that he 'set gay rights activism back several decades', which I totally disagree with. I actually liked Nicky and was impressed at the way he walked into a backwoods bar and when the rednecks tried to hassle him he single-handedly kicked their asses, which to me worked completely against the gay stereotype.
Through the years critics have become much kinder to this film and its attained a strong cult following and deservedly so. Despite being made 4 decades ago it actually comes off as fresh and inventive because it's not stifled by the conventional 'rules' of the formula, which we've become so accustomed to now. I liked how the film opens with a point-of-view shots of our heroine running madly through the forest making the viewer feel they're the ones being chased.
The fact that the majority of it takes place during the daytime actually makes it scarier especially with it's weird yellowish tint that permeates every shot. I'm not sure if this was intentional or just a poor film transfer, but it helps to create a surreal look. I also really loved seeing the skeleton of the large boat that was being built inside an abandoned shed. I presume with the low budget this was not made for the story and instead simply worked into the script when the producers came upon it while scouting for locations, but the effect is cool especially when the cast walks around inside it.
The soundtrack is way different from the conventional horror film as well with a country tinged sound and at one point even a classical dance piece, but after watching soooo many scary movies with the same old Friday the 13th-like sound I was more than happy to hear something different. The characters are also multi-dimensional with distinctive personalities. Usually I more than happy to see a cardboard slasher film cast get hacked-up, but here I kind of wanted them to stay around as they were interesting. The murders also don't work in a mechanical way, but instead start occurring suddenly to the shock of everyone else, which gives it more of a real-time feel.
The only real negative is that despite having a strong beginning and ending the middle part is slow. There's still enough interactions between the characters to hold mild interest, but there's no running tension. A good horror movie should be creepy to some degree from beginning to end, but the second act veers off too much making it at times seem more like a soft core porn flick, but overall for the horror connoisseur I'd still recommend this.
