54. Welcome To Paul Edmund Norman's The Gateway whittaker was looking very glum. Did you tell Lord Alloa what has happened? he asked. No? Besides, said whittaker, there is the post. http://www.gatewaymonthly.com/39stepsg.html

Home Features Book Reviews Stories ... Contact www.gatewaymonthly.com THE THIRTY-NINE STEPS by John Buchan Chapter EIGHT The Thirty-Nine Steps 'Nonsense!' said the official from the Admiralty. Sir Walter got up and left the room while we looked blankly at the table. He came back in ten minutes with a long face. 'I have spoken to Alloa,' he said. 'Had him out of bed - very grumpy. He went straight home after Mulross's dinner.' 'But it's madness,' broke in General Winstanley. 'Do you mean to tell me that that man came here and sat beside me for the best part of half an hour and that I didn't detect the imposture? Alloa must be out of his mind.' 'Don't you see the cleverness of it?' I said. 'You were too interested in other things to have any eyes. You took Lord Alloa for granted. If it had been anybody else you might have looked more closely, but it was natural for him to be here, and that put you all to sleep.' Then the Frenchman spoke, very slowly and in good English. 'The young man is right. His psychology is good. Our enemies have not been foolish!' He bent his wise brows on the assembly.

Home Features Book Reviews Stories ... Contact www.gatewaymonthly.com THE THIRTY-NINE STEPS by John Buchan Chapter SEVEN The Coming of the Black Stone I came down to breakfast next morning, after eight hours of blessed dreamless sleep, to find Sir Walter decoding a telegram in the midst of muffins and marmalade. His fresh rosiness of yesterday seemed a thought tarnished. 'I had a busy hour on the telephone after you went to bed,' he said. 'I got my Chief to speak to the First Lord and the Secretary for War, and they are bringing Royer over a day sooner. This wire clinches it. He will be in London at five. Odd that the code word for a SOUS-CHEF D/ETAT MAJOR-GENERAL should be "Porker".' He directed me to the hot dishes and went on. 'Not that I think it will do much good. If your friends were clever enough to find out the first arrangement they are clever enough to discover the change. I would give my head to know where the leak is. We believed there were only five men in England who knew about Royer's visit, and you may be certain there were fewer in France, for they manage these things better there.' While I ate he continued to talk, making me to my surprise a present of his full confidence.

59. Everest Challenge'98 - Mission And Timeline In May 1998, via Sir edmund s South Col route, whittaker and a disabled Sherpa intendto create history by being the first disabled mountaineers to stand on http://www.mtnvisions.com/Everest/E98Event.html

Everest Challenge '98 Mission and Timeline "Tom Whittaker's amputee-push to Mount Everest's summit may bethe last great challenge in Himalayan climbing." Greg Child EVEREST CHALLENGE '98 is an expedition to place the first disabled mountaineers on the roof of the world. Background Highlights and Editorial-a short preview of Everest Challenge '98 Mission Everest Challenge '98 is a global initiative to assist the integration of people with disabilities. Everest Challenge '98 's mission is to make history and redefine the possible. But more important; it is the inspiration to create a legacy for disabled children. Via the Internet, in schools world wide, Everest Challenge '98 is opening the hearts and minds of children to the capabilities of their disabled peers through inspiration and leadership. Everest Challenge Summit Climb. April -May 1998 Mount Everest was first climbed in 1953 by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay. Since it's discovery as the highest mountain in the world, Everest remained aloof for more than 100 years. Since then some 600 people have stood on her summit. No longer do we climb in hob-nail boots and Norfolk jackets, and to some the challenge seems diminished. However, for a disabled mountaineer, technology has not reduced the challenge; it has brought it into reach. In May 1998, via Sir Edmund's South Col route, Whittaker and a disabled Sherpa intend to create history by being the first disabled mountaineers to stand on the roof of the world. The magnitude of this undertaking was summed up by Greg Child, who partnered Tom on the North Ridge in 1995. He said "Tom's amputee push to Everest's summit may be the last great challenge in Himalayan climbing."

Welkom Nieuws Agenda De Stichting ... Denkers conservatisme - denkers Whittaker Chambers, Witness (1952) The rags that fell from me were not only Communism. What fell was the whole web of the materialist modern mind – the luminous shroud which it has spun about the spirit of man, paralyzing in the name of rationalism the instinct of his soul for God, denying in the name of knowledge the reality of the soul and its birthright in that mystery on which mere knowledge falters and shatters at every step. If I had rejected only Communism, I would have rejected only one political expression of the modern mind, the most logical because the most brutal in enforcing the myth of man’s material perfectibility, the most persuasive because the least hypocritical in announcing its purpose and forcibly removing the obstacles to it. Tijdens een met veel publiciteit omgeven plechtigheid in het Witte Huis werd op 26 maart 1984 door president Reagan postuum aan Whittaker Chambers (1901-1961) de Medal of Freedom , de hoogste onderscheiding voor Amerikaanse burgers, toegekend. Ronald Reagan heeft er nooit een geheim van gemaakt dat lezing van Chambers’ Witness (1952) een grote invloed heeft gehad op zijn ontwikkeling van New Deal liberal tot conservatief politicus. In zijn eerste autobiografie, Where's the Rest of Me?
