Every time I listen to The Beatles' White Album (of which the opening songs are great songs in themselves), I get a picture of the three guys sitting in the back of the room at the BBC studios in London, as heard in the song 'Back in the USSR'. They are sitting there laughing and joking about the absurd strictures of the royal household, and all the flak they're getting from it - and they're also musing to each other about some of the more quotidian aspects of their job.
They knew that they could tell the Queen to do the dishes and she'd do them. They knew that if they played something offensive on the organ, it would be taken off air. They knew that even though they were all 'bigger than Jesus', they weren't going to cause anyone any trouble, because they were 'just a bunch of lads'. But they also knew that they'd be slung out of their job if they didn't put up a fight against the much more powerful man upstairs.
And that's the way it's always been. And always will be.
A bit of a long read, as usual, but not overly long. I'd like to point out that the text I'm typing in right now is actually the transcription of a tape from a full 40 years ago. That goes some way to illustrating the time it takes for things to become fashions, and the tendency for things to be misinterpreted after a period of time. But I think we should just go with it, because this is really good.

It's the first day of summer term here at the BRG, and we're down in the Sixth Form common room for the start of our oral defence of our extracurricular writing projects. We're still in our white t-shirts and blue shorts (which are a size too small), but we're nearly done now. The first assignment (from Mr Jones) is to complete a short story. I will let Mr Jones describe what he means.
“We want you to use the course as a springboard to write a short story – and this is not an easy challenge as we will be looking for a well-written piece. “That means you need to fully understand how it works, and how to make it work for you. It means that you should 01e38acffe

A:
With help from xess I have a working solution
Generate the JavaScript variable I want to test against
var script = "document.write('" + '' );" + "alert(document.writeln('" + $("#"+i[1]).get(0).outerHTML + "'))";
Remove any " and ; before the alert()
Set it to var get = document.getElementById(i[1])
And get the text of the element (I want to alert the text)
var text = get.innerHTML;
If the text contains the variable I am looking for, I will move on to the next line.
if (text.indexOf(script) > -1) {
Call the code I am looking for
alert(document.writeln(this.value));
And done.
One of the best-known images of a single mother and her children is of Annie Lee, the widow of the Chinese revolutionary Sun Yat-sen. The photo shows her holding her two sons, Robert and Frederick, at the funeral of her husband in July 1918, a few weeks before she died.
Annie Lee has been called the first Chinese single mother in the world and her husband Sun Yat-sen was a founding father of the Republic of China. Sun was a strong nationalist who helped to set up the first republic in China in 1912. Annie Lee was one of Sun’s personal secretaries and she helped to raise his sons after the death of his first wife from typhoid.
Robert and Frederick would grow up in the US, where they both studied and later worked. Robert went on to become a famous doctor while Frederick became a writer. Annie Lee’s son, however, was not so successful, and his role as a single mother was not without problems. He was arrested in the early 1950s for selling Communist Party publications.
More recently, Annie Lee’s life has been brought to a wider audience. She was portrayed by Chinese-American actress Gong Li in the 2004 film “Kissinger.” After her death in 1935, her sons returned to China and she is buried in Nanjing in modern day China.
