The Taming of the Shrew

William Shakespeare's classic battle of the sexes is set during the final months of WWII when many of the armed forces are returning to England to settle down to their lives.
Baptista Minola, a wealthy shopkeeper, has two daughters; clever and headstrong Katharina and spoiled, pretty Bianca. Whilst Bianca has several suitors vying for her hand, Baptista insists that shrewish Kate is married before Bianca can also wed.
Two of these men, Hortensio and Lurkio, challenge Petruchio, an officer posted in the town for the duration of the war, to take Kate in hand.
Meanwhile young officer Lucentio, with the help of his friend Tranio, sneaks in to court Bianca secretly whilst his rivals are otherwise occupied.

Not sure but think this is maintained by Stubbs (who was behind the attempt to clean up the SYPTE bus time app) so is probably reliable.
Sheffield school holidays as a .ics file for importing into Outlook/Google Calendar/etc
I suspect a number of people on here might be interested in this event a colleague of mine is running:
Pub2.0, a social event for web-ish people
So loads of people who like doing or thinking about web2.0 stuff get together and talk.
We talk about technology, social media, online behaviour, design and production processes & methodologies. As the evening wears on and the drink is drunk, we tend to start talking about politics, psychology, sociology and maybe even trigonometry.
As I have just been mean to
asw909 I thought I would give him the opportunity to get his own back.
spiderwebliz was reading out some of the more, er, interesting singles ads from the Guardian.
And so a challenge has resulted for you folks: If you were writing a singles ad for me, what would you write?
What do you guys think about netbooks Vs laptops for mobile computing, what have you got, what do you have geek lust for?
I am however sure that some people of here will be interested in The Burlesque Magazine. From a geek point of view it is nice to see people using the Ceros platform intelligently with click to buy on fashion pieces and embedded video rather than just a way of putting a piece of print media onto the internet. Must remember to find out how accessible it is.
I can't make the FU 60th, if any of you that are turning up are still around on Sunday come along for lunch at the The Harley Hotel & Bar, 334 Glossop Road 13:30.

Watching the celebration of the great and good in cinema with a British tinge.
Then suddenly thinking about theatre with the mention of Waiting for Godot.
Thinking of going to the Matinee on the 27th or 28th of June, there are still gallery tickets available which are fundamentally reasonable anyone else?
Neil Gaimen has just revealed that Neil Jordan is to adapt and direct the film of 'The Graveyard Book'.
Various online news pieces suggest it will be live action and that a UK special effects house called Framework are a key part of the project.
