Napoleon Bonaparte Featured

Written by Dah Joat

He was the best of us, then, now; hopefully not forever, but to say that the current outlook is bleak sounds a little optimistic.

In arranging the line of battle it was the privilege of the Parisian Guards to attend the General in Chief, who wore their uniform. They attended Bonaparte as his personal guards at the Battle of Lodi In the attack against the bridge he called to the guard to advance: They hesitated; upon which he instantly threw off his uniform and demanded the regimental dress of another corp, one that was advancing. The Parisian guards felt ashamed and indignant: They rushed forward and carried the bridge.

 

Now that's leadership!

Comment on the this article in the Daily Mail.

I am the founding director of the Oxford Project to Investigate Memory and Ageing (OPTIMA), which studies the causes of dementia. Last year  we recruited 270 elderly people with memory problems and gave them Vitamin B tablets – folic acid (800 micrograms), B12 (500 micrograms) and B6 (20 milligrams).

The 10p a day vitamin supplement tackles dementia So drug industry spending billions

An important story, but not actual new news.

The Ugly: Just look, put the bottle down, sober up; look at it, just look.

“The true measure of a man is not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment. No, the true measure of a man is this: how quickly can he respond to the needs of others and how much of himself he can give.”
