Service Awards

PSA wishes to thank members who sacrifice their time to help the organization and these awards are usually presented by all divisions on an annual basis. However presenting Service Awards is a first for EID. The following awards were issued at the Annual International Conference in Tucson:

And so we enter the Christmas books season, a phase in the publishing calendar so terrifying, so utterly without hope, that more sensitive bookbuyers may wish to hide in second-hand bookshops, or under their beds, until it’s all over. But amidst the piles of useless non-books in Borders and Waterstones, probably right at the […]

This article is going to discuss artifacts, pyramids and a place called Stonehouse. It will even use the word “relic.” But this isn’t about archeology or ancient history. Instead, it is about advanced manufacturing in the 21st Century and one company’s strategic vision for rapidly developing new products while maintaining competitive manufacturing in […]

Chipping Campden and its neighboring villages of Broad Campden and Blockley are set on the edge of the Cotswolds. However, it is quite easy to live in or near the Cotswolds and to never have heard of Chipping Campden, let alone to have visited this small Cotswold town.

The eight major Histories from Richard II to Richard III […]

Three score or so years ago they’d march their infantry into Gloucestershire for summer-holiday three-dayers, magisterially shouting the odds and putting the fear of God into us urchins behind the ropes — officers and commanders like wolfish Wilf Wooller, despot of Glamorgan; Middlesex’s martinet R.W.V. Robins; cocksure young bigshot ‘Snarler’ Marlar of Sussex; […]

Hmm, I thought to myself, almost immediately, I bet that’s faked.

I should be careful here. The kind of man who would ride baldly and cheerily through floodwater on a penny-farthing is the kind of man, I suspect, who would fire off a wronged and angry letter to a newspaper at the merest […]

Plant spirit shamans – natural healers who work with herbs, ritual, and the elements – have long known that the world is not made up of discrete and separate parts, but that we are all one: that the ‘butterfly effect’ of a single extra drop of water released from a cloud into a Gloucestershire […]
