THE PIT Issue 858 March 2011 Bottle Match Blaster PRESIDENT’s SHOUT EDITOR’s NOTE Well it‘s that time for another Pit and since I‘m snowed under wanking all over a keyboard... I mean, ahem ‗making a PhD‘, I thought I would tell you a little about the side of MOOHOUSE that you don't see. Oh RSM - what an amazing couple of weeks!! I don‘t think anyone can sum up all of the hopes and fears, the joys and sadness's or drunken nights (mainly because you can‘t remember them), but here are a few of my personal highlights: My last adventure started early Friday morning (after post Bottle Match Barnight) at belushis, with my now infamous cry of: ‗...What‘s this ... I‘m not wearing my CHAPPS TIE!!!???!?!?! SPANK ME DANNY HILL, SPANK ME...‘ And thus my epic journey into the dark realms of presidential S&M began. Bottle Match EPIC WINN Master Hill is kind to me. He can be a harsh master: when I return his tweed suits with a few wrinkles, his shirts with scorch marks from my inability to iron, or if I spill when swallowing (in a boat race of course). He likes to keep up with the RSM news and tell me what I am doing wrong as president. Sometimes I ask him to come back and help me in this big confusing world, but he says that with great power comes great responsibility and that I have to shoulder this weight. (He also told me to pass a surprise on to Bungey. But that has to be done in person....) Master Hill—you take away the pain and make the hurt feel good. Until next time. Stay submissive miners Mark Porter - That doesn't look like Matt‘s arse... Moron: STEVE Learning Spanish Witnessing SHOCKING couplings in Belushis (see President‘s Shout) and not so shocking couplings (see Sanghee‘s camera) Elections results, DLB, Geophys and Hockey AGMs all in 24 hours RSM FAIL—free alcohol was offered and you didn't WANT IT. Tut. Second year team going through to the final of BP challenge! (well done guys!) Wainwright almost lost his third (and very precious) ball down the sinkhole And on that bombshell... Ben Moorhouse RSMU President Pit Editor xxx Royal School of Mines FC Are proud to present: The ULU Vase Final Kings College Medical School V Royal School of Mines Wednesday 23rd March The Bank of England Sports Ground, Roehampton Kick off 12.00 Come and show your support as we go in search of our first Silverware in recent history!

Matt, If you call me Sammy again I will break you in two. No joke. Samuel Phillips ARSM Events Technical Supervisor Lookalikes: The Week in Pictures: Alcololz: Rohyplolz Sleeping Beauty: Mrs H. Ore Solves all your problems. This week Mrs H. Ore is off on the campaign trail, luckily her BFF Cymreiges has written us a lovely tea time treat: WALES. Wales is great. I love Wales and I love Welsh Cakes (Pice ar y Maen). 225g/8oz self-raising flour, sieved (with a teaspoon of mixed spice) 110g/4oz (preferably Welsh) salted butter 1 egg handful of sultanas (or chocolate chips are amazing too!) milk, if needed 85g/3oz caster sugar extra butter (Welsh), for greasing Prep. method 1. Rub the fat and flour together to make breadcrumbs. Add the sugar, and dried fruit. Make this into a mound with a well in the centre. Pour the egg into this and stir in the to form a ball of dough, using a splash of milk if needed. 2. Roll out the pastry until it is a 5mm/¼in thick and cut into rounds with a 7.5-10cm/34in fluted cutter. 3. You now need a bakestone (thick slab of iron) or a thick frying pan. Rub it with butter and wipe the excess away. Put it on to a direct heat and wait until it heats up, place the Welsh cakes on the griddle, turning once. They need about 2-3 minutes each side. Each side needs to be caramel brown before turning. 4. Remove from the pan and cover with caster sugar while still warm AND ENJOY. Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Sant!!!! (1st March) Bottle Match Sports Reports Basketball Report After several try-outs and practices, the inaugural RSM team finally arrived at Burlington Danes Academy on the Friday of the Bottle Match weekend, ready to play together for the first time. The excitement grew as Nick arrived fashionably late with a bag full of beautiful hand-crafted, lovingly made jerseys, which the team gleefully donned as it began to warm-up. Moments later, players with ―Falmouth Falcons‖ sweat-shirts walked into the gym... Before long the tiny gym was full of Cambourne supporters, with only a small contingent of RSM fans trying balance out the support. It must have been the most inbred gym in London. More bad news struck the Miners as Pete revealed that her ankle was still hurting from a game of flower-picking the previous weekend, leaving Isabella as the only girl on the team. Meanwhile the Falcons were trying to impress the crowd with a few flashy dunks and their professionally-made uniforms. However the Miners remained resolute, and the game began... Starting line-up: C Bolanle Osibodu PF Giles Ostermeijer SF Ben Said SG Raza Hassan PG Nick Lutsko First Quarter: RSM 15 Falcons 11 The game started out fast paced with CSM scoring the opening basket and then Giles answering with a baseline pull-up. However, the RSM soon settled down, forcing CSM into several turnovers, as well as getting several dirty Falmouth players into foul trouble. Coach Esther and Assistant Coach/Waterboy Ben B did a masterful job with the substitutions, keeping the team fresh by bringing in freshmen post players Chris and Juan and so the Miners quieted the crowd and took the lead. Second Quarter: RSM 21 Falcons 28 The teams traded baskets at the start of the second quarter, with Raza hitting a deep bank shot, and Isabella using a gorgeous fake to get a Falcon off his feet before hitting a pull-up, while Bo gave the Falcons all kinds of problems on the boards. Unfortunately, the Falcons triangle and 2/line and 3 defence proved difficult to break down, leading to several turnovers and easy baskets for the Falcons, and the Miners found themselves down 7 at halftime. Third Quarter: Can't remember score, the Falcons were winning by about 12 At halftime, 3rd year Materials student Rich McNulty was given a jersey, and warmed up to play. Unfortunately, the Miners didn't realize that Rich was in fact an escaped 6 foot 9 woman's vagina, which was prowling the streets of London in its thirst for semen. As such, Rich proved ineffective. Don't remember much about the third quarter, to be honest. Fourth Quarter: RSM 40 Falcons 64 Ok, the fourth quarter was more interesting. The RSM made a comeback, closing the gap to about 8, thanks to some great baseline jumpers by Giles and a tightened defence. Unfortunately, some momentum was lost when Nick was intentionally fouled while going up for a dunk by one of the Falcons. Later reports revealed that this unsportsman-like behaviour, and general assholery may have been caused by the offender being repeatedly hit in the head by his mother's brother's penis while in the womb while his parents took part in a recently uncovered Cambourne tradition that has been called either ―handjobs from the womb‖ or, more colloquially, ―fetus-fucking‖ (Hunter, Shah and Brading 2011). The teams remained close, with another memorable play taking place when Alex ―recrystallized‖ an unsuspecting Falmouth player, causing him to undergo dynamic metamorphism and change from a granite into an Fe-rich, garnetstaurolite mica schist showing prominent S2 crenulation-cleavage and porphyroblastic overprinting (See: Tolley, Mitchell and Karvelas (2011), in Mubarak (2011)). In the end however, a few lucky shots by the Falcons, and tired legs on the part of the Miners allowed the Falcons to pull away, leaving a final score that was not indicative of how close the game was for 3 and a half quarters. Player of the game: Isabella for taking one of the Falcons to school with her shot-fake, as well as doing a solid job helping to bring the ball up, and persevering after being knocked down by two of the Falmouth players (perhaps in an attempt to intimidate the only girl on the court). Dick of the Day: Cambourne don't do basketball teams, but if they did, the Miners would beat them by 40. Football RSM 2-3 CSM Goals: Romain Chauvet, Will Dow Following what has been a largely successful season that has seen us reach the ULU Vase final, we went into the game confident in our own ability, but also with last year‘s embarrassing defeat fresh in our minds, and fully aware of the quality that Camborne could have. After a nervy coach ride to Harlington we arrived buoyed by the news that RSM had already won the Ladies hockey for the first time in 11 years, and went to watch the opening exchanges of the Men‘s before heading in to the changing rooms, whereby I was politely reminded of some of my few physical imperfections by a particularly charming CSM girl. Sharp as ever I wittily responded by telling her to fuck off and in we went. Having time to change, have a team talk and warm up is a luxury we are not used to, but after a Martin Luther King esque speech from yours truly we went out and did a rather professional looking warm up that for the first time even included something other than piggy in the middle. As the crowd started to gather the nerves disappeared and we all got our game faces on. Here‘s how we lined up: GK: Luke Daly Christian Maskrey Joe Matthews(C) Jon Warwick James Tolley Adam Holt Romain Chauvait Will Dow Stuart Walters Matt Day Giles Ostermeijer Subs: Alex Perrin, David Mubarak, Ed Spencer We started well, and quickly settled into the good passing rhythm that has seen us good all season as we went in search of our first Bottle Match goal in 4 years. Camborne were clearly rattled by our good start, and we almost took the lead when Adam found the run of Giles who shot narrowly over. We were matching Camborne in every department, which made it all the more frustrating when a brief lapse in concentration led to their captain running clear on goal to poke past Luke to give them a rather undeserved lead. But we kept our heads up, and set about getting stuck into them in true Bottle Match fashion. Matt was linking up well with Tolley at left back and the 3 centre mids were causing them all kinds of problems, but we just couldn‘t quite find the killer pass. Then , after some valiant defending and some good stops from Luke, came the blow that could well have spelled the end for RSM teams of old, as we failed to deal with a corner and went into half time 2-0 down, but with the knowledge that we were playing well and were still right in the game. After the break, with Spence coming on for Giles, we kept looking for a way back into the game. Adam and Christian had their work cut out as most of their attacks came through their talented left winger, though they were handling him well, but with Christian on a yellow card on came Alex Perrin at right back, and Dave Mubarak at right mid for Stu, with Adam making the move into the middle. But unfortunately moments later a free kick in a dangerous position led to another headed goal for them, and we were staring down the barrel of the gun at 3-0 down with most of the 2nd half still to play. But the way we kept on fighting and the belief shown by everyone was so impressive, with not a head down or a glum face to be seen. The support from the sidelines helped us raise our game, and we were all determined to give it our best shot. What followed was some of the best football we have played all season, and we got our just reward when Romain picked the ball up 25 yards out and unleashed a fierce strike to the left of the CSM keeper, (although there were hints of a touch from the head of Adam, the dubious goals panel has given the goal to Chauvait), and we could sense Camborne‘s fear that we might just be back in the game. Alex and Tolley were bombing forward from full back, and Will and Romain were almost untouchable in the middle, and despite Adam picking up an injury (and all our subs made), he never stopped running. Even Joe and Jon made the occasional foray into enemy territory from centre back, and Dave was giving their left back all kinds of nightmares. Then with time running out Spence was felled in the box and the ref pointed to the spot. Will stepped up with the chance to put us within a goal of a memorable comeback, and smashed his penalty home to the right of the keeper. With only a few minutes left on the clock, we went all out in search of the equaliser. But before we really had a chance to get the ball into a dangerous position, the referee blew his whistle; we had just run out of time. It was a brave effort, and in the second half especially we really showed Camborne what we‘re capable of and regained some much deserved respect lost over the last few years. But in the end we left ourselves with a little too much to do and not quite enough time in which to do it. Bring on next year! Man of the Match: Romain Chauvait. This was a tough one, everyone played so well, but Romain just edged out Will and Matt for his industrious performance and the long range strike to give us our first Bottle Match goal in far too long. Dick of the Day: Christian Maskrey. Nothing to do with his performance, but just for being the 1st player to be booked in the Bottle Match in as long as most people can remember. Best/Worst banter: I must say the banter from CSM was particularly poor this year. Aside saying we all look like penguins, and a female oriented joke aimed at Dave (which is understandable), I didn‘t pick up on anything of note. And apparently I have a big beak which is just ridiculous. Ladies Hockey: RSM 5-3 CSM Despite not having won the Golders cup for 12 years we went into the match with high hopes and confidence in our team; we were not disappointed! Definitely our most exciting game of the season things started out well with an early goal for Laura followed soon after by one from Jill. CSM started to panic and responded with 2 sneaky goals bringing us equal as we went into half time. Determined not to loose our lead we fought hard in the second half but again they managed to slip one past us. Undeterred we came back even stronger and Jill fired another one in bringing us even again. Knowing we could now win gave the team a surge of energy and every person worked so hard to keep the ball at the CSM end, leading to another goal for Jill completing her hat-trick to bring us into the lead, then one from Celia too; we weren‘t going to give them any chances! The last few minutes were tense as we did our best to make sure the ball stayed as far from our goal as possible and we held out right until the end with Olivia2, Kirsty and Jess not letting the ball though. We also managed to get payback for their goals by taking out a player who whinged on the floor for 5 minutes before subbing off... It was the most amazing game and I feel proud to be in such an incredible team; every one of us worked so hard and it paid off girls! The Golders cup made its way back to the Union bar (after a short stay in Metric…) and that‘s where it‘s going stay! Thanks to all our brilliant supporters on the day (although I‘m sure Gimley wouldn‘t agree…) Hockey love J xxx Players of the match: Sang and Jill Dick of the day: Teddy for throwing her stick half way across the pitch while taking a short corner (but allowing Celia to get in her sneaky goal)...Jess almost got his award due to her smashing a bottle of port in the showers... Champagne moment: We can‘t really remember for sure but I think this went to Jill for her amazing hatrick. SQUASH On a brisk Friday lunchtime at the end of February a strong contingent of the RSM endured the marathon hike across Exhibition Road and down to the deepest darkest depths of Ethos to lend their support to what were soon to become the newest heroes of the RSM. The heroes in question were the 5 brave young men who were already down in the changing rooms, brandishing their racquets, cracking their knuckles and looking at each other suggestively; preparing themselves for the trials ahead. The CSM goons, already out on court, were looking smug and confident. They had reason to be, winning the last 3 years on the bounce, 14 matches to 1 on aggregate. The first to step out to the rapturous home crowd were Mark Porter (Geophysics), Nathaniel ElliotGreen (Geology) and Thomas Robinson (Geophysics). Mark, veteran of 2 previous Bottle Matches and proud owner of little to no front teeth, got the RSM off to the best possible start by seeing off their no. 2 in almost no time at all, dismissing him 3-0 without even breaking a sweat. Tom, up against their no. 4, didn‘t get off to quite as assured a start, going down 0-2 to a player who had some nice shots up his sleeve but who felt he was too big to wear socks. What a knob. However once the news that the RSM were 1up spread Tom pulled it back to 1-2, before unfortunately succumbing in the 4th game to bow out 1-3. By this point Nat‘s match against the CSM no. 3 had developed into a final set thriller, with the match finely poised at 2-2. Nat had showed superb stamina and some lovely technical shots up until now, but got the final set off to the worst possible start by falling 0-3 behind almost instantly. I guess at this point Nat realised that he was actually quite good at squash, and so decided to reel of 9 points on the trot, sealing a decisive middle-order victory and restoring the RSM to 1up overall. Not soon after this the final 2 matches got underway, which saw James Hickey (Materials) up against their no. 5 and Ryan Bayliss (Materials PG) squaring up to their top seed. As with Tom before him, Jim was none too quick out of the blocks, losing the first game, but soon after rediscovered his mammoth forehand that easily won him the second. However after being hit by a combination of fatigue and afro-in-the-eyes the next 2 games slipped away from him and the match was lost 1-3. This meant the series was levelled at 2-2, leaving it all to play for in the final game. Ryan, who had decided the best way to prepare was to contract a throat infection, felt the pressure in the first game and after some intense rallies marginally lost out. However after then it all seemed to be plain sailing for him, as he brushed aside his opposite number for 3 straight games to win his match 3-1 and the series 3-2. The crowd went wild, Ryan was having to beat off the hordes of women throwing themselves at him, and after some devious CSM horseplay the Bottle Match Squash Trophy was finally returned to its rightful home, where long may it remain..... And of course, the best of luck to Nat next year as he takes over the reins of this illustrious team. Men‘s Hockey RSM 1 – 4 CSM Halftime: 0-0 Those who saw this match will tell you that the boys played with an inspiring passion, no one can say that we didn‘t put everything into winning that game. The inbred scum got a few lucky goals in the second half as both teams opened up their play trying to win the beloved sharply cup back from their ingrate hands. Sadly we didn‘t score enough goals, and we were beaten, but not down heartened. Belated Player profiles, with the RSMHC official opinion on performance. Jonnie Clowes Jonnie ―the proverbial sieve‖ Clowes. 7/10 Jonnie played well in the first half. He also played ok in the second half, except for that howler where he was beaten at his near post. Poor form JC. Life partner: Vernon. They will have beautiful yellow round babies... Vernon McGeoch Vernon ―medic scum (pot bellied super-pig)‖ McGeoch. 8/10 Vernon – fat douche... Played pretty well in the match as a whole, good lad, and was very keen to play for the RSM. Favourite sex position: Butterfly (passive) Dave Whittleston Dave ―lady-legs‖ Whittleston. 8.5/10 Loves the tights... so camp. He is very jealous of sorcha‘s tights with the little pink bit on. Solid as a rock (talc) Filthy secret: he has personally experienced that elusive female orgasm... Freddy Briggs Freddy ―Psycho‖ Briggs . 6.5/10 Don‘t mess with this young rapscallion, he will throw down at you. CSM scum decided to slide tackle our beloved Freddy, which vexed the kind hearted right back. Favourite swear word: wazzock Paddy Goodarzi Paddy ―iran‘s answer to go compare man‖ Goodarzi. 9/10 Really solid performance from our token Arab this year. He loves the flat-stick tackles, with his massive reach even the seven toed CSM bell ends couldn‘t get past him. Kinky secret: uses hummus as lube Matt James Matt ―I‘m not over compensating‖ James. 9/10 Possibly the most passionate Hockey player I‘ve ever seen. The CSM scum feared him, possibly as they heard what he did to all those people in Libya... maybe I‘m getting confused... Favourite thing to do on a Sunday morning: Romantic bath with Mr Wainwright Matt Thomas Matt ―If that‘s not nailed down I‘m nicking it‖ Thomas. 10/10 Our dedicated skipper, the best looking person on the team who all the girls want to be with and all the guys want to be; he‘s in charge of writing these summaries. Greatest ambition: To be your hero baby... Mark Porter Mark ―Chip from beauty and the beast‖ Porter. 9/10 Our ex-captain, makes everyone else on the pitch look good. He play well as part of a team, I guess I‘m trying to say... Also dead keen on squash that game like tennis, but indoors and shit.

Lionel Sumner Lionel ―Looks like a pineapple, does geology...‖ Sumner. 10/10 ‗Possibly the greatest thing to ever happen to RSM HC‘ – (Sumner 2011) ‗I mean I don‘t mind going down on a bitch.

Favourite film: A Shark‘s tale Nicholas Jones Nick ―I don‘t want to play in this rain, I might get my hair all mussed up‖ Jones. 9/10 Played a really good game, think she probably got confused... I asked her to train with the ladies team, but she got confused... Great Goal to be fair... Favourite hairstyle: Perm or maybe light bangs... Henry Debens Henry ―Hen-dubz‖ Debens. 7/10 Mr Debens is a personal hero of mine, so i have nothing bad to say... I jest. His hockey performances have taken a dip of late due to the fact he has been taking lessons from a certain other hockey-ist in the art of fresher sharking. A disappointing swansong season, but a cracking pull Henners. Favourite nipple: Both, but if I had to choose. Left one. Right one is freaky... Simon Cornwell Simon ―I‘m not one to whinge, but...‖Cornwell. 5/10 One of the RSM greats, he has been top scorer all season. Unfortunately he didn‘t continue his goal scoring prowess into the Bottle Match. He has grown soft in his old age and obviously didn‘t want to unleash the beast on CSM... Favourite dental hygiene product: Fixodent Mikey Petitt Mikey ―badger badger badger badger badger badger mushroom mushroom‖ Petitt 8/10 Grandfather of the RSM and a true hero. For a mech eng. he‘s a lad. We <3 you Mikey!

One of the nicest guys you‘ll ever meet craigy has a passion for the RSM and Pernelle. Downsyest Moment: The first time he dried jerking it... aged 20. An After-thought.... Through the dragon‘s eye... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9MXx9xej10&feature=related Find this on YouTube... if you remember this then epic. If you don‘t then get on it.... The dragon is clearly a rapist, who is charming the children to follow him into his creepy ass world where everything looks like it was retro in the 80‘s... So say goodbye to your Easter holidays, TTDE is where it‘s at. -scouse Exercises of the week with: BOTTLE MATCH STREAKERS When you‘re a professional streaker, as I am, the main target is looking good. I might make it look easy, but this body didn‘t happen by accident. It can take years to perfect a body as I have one, though there are some short-cuts you can make to speed up your body sculpting. A streaker will never become successful without good cardio-vascular fitness. A streaker‘s greatest nemesis is the policeman and the Camborne miner, despite the latter‘s excessive number of toes they are very quick and it is essential to be able to outrun them (N.B. this is considerably harder when very drunk). People who have already gained streakers bodies often find they have the perfect for Note the other noble sports such as; Sumo wrestling, sought after speed eating ‗love-handles‘ and saggy and the ever buttocks. competitive, lying in bed. This woman is clearly in a hurry to build a streakers body as she has combined weightlifting cake with adding to her already textbook ‗spare tire‘. AFTER EASTER/FIELDTRIPS: NICK WAINWRIGHT feat. Laydeeez hockey Football: AGM News The end of the season is nigh, and all in all it has been a successful one. We have finished a respectable 5th in the league, competed well in the Bottle Match and are looking forward to the Cup Final next week. And as the season draws to a close it is almost time for me to hand the baton on to next year‘s crop. As our Saturday game was cancelled all we had to worry about that day was the AGM, which after a shaky start (Eastside showing rugby instead of Utd v Arsenal?? Are they pissed?) the voting got underway in earnest. So without any further ado it is my pleasure to announce the RSM Football committee for next year: Captain: Matt Day (1st year) Vice- Captain: Christian Maskrey (3rd year) Treasurer: Alex Perrin (2nd year) With only one candidate for each position (RON must have been busy with quidditch, he diddn‘t even show) it‘s fair to say there wasn‘t a huge amount of suspense involved. That is until the real voting started. Every year we vote for a Player of the season, Goal of the Season, Champagne moment of the Season, and the much coveted Dickhead Moment of the season. The competition was fierce, especially for Dickhead moment, which annually comes with a delicious dirty pint. Having been lumbered with this rather unflattering award for the last 2 seasons, Tolley was keen to avoid an unwelcome hatrick, and was hitting the campaign trail hard by badmouthing his closest competitors, Joe and Stu. The results were as follows: Player of the Season: Matt Day Goal of the Season: Adam Holt, for his spectacular volley against Barts Champagne Moment of the Season: Christian Maskrey, for scoring the winning penalty against RUMs in the quarter final shootout. Dickhead Moment of the Season: Joe Matthews, for standing on the ball or something. Funny.

Don‘t let defeat get you down, learn from any mistakes including not voting for yourself and apply for another position in one of the many clubs within the RSM. There‘s still plenty more AGM‘s still to go before the end of term, for all you know you might end up as president of the Ultimate Space Animal Fight Club (USAFC) at the end of this term! But on a serious note, don‘t take any sorrow from losing. Everyone going for a position had the commitment and the dedication to do the job if they got it. So for that I know the RSMU will be in safe hands for next year and hopefully for the next few years! Thankfully the end of term is nearly here and I think everyone is looking forward to a break after an action packed term. Bringing the Bottle, Golders, Richmond and various other trophies home is a tiring affair as well as pretending to do a degree. As well as these small minor affairs, members of the RSM have done the following extra curricular activities: Kept Belushi‘s in business Formed a vigilante group helping to keep Fulham clear of chavs Stolen the wooden Spanner to the disgust and confusion of C&G Destroyed multiple phones and lost their dignity Proved that the Chaps are the quickest drinkers at Imperial Viva La RSM! Ben Moorhouse RSMU President Trip to NATIONAL OCEANOGRAPHIC CENTER, SOUTHAMPTON WEDNESDAY 23rd March PRICE TBC Tickets on sale MONDAY What can I say—I‘m excited about going on an awesome trip to Southampton and then out on BOAT and shizz. If you want to attend, and you have yet to say so, I BELIEVE there are a few place left, so email WAINWRIGHT - njw07, and remember to pack your flippy floppies :D In other news, most of the ESE side are away on field trips at the mo....and the rest of the RSM has serious workage to be getting on with. Oh welllllz. Enjoy this Pit miners, it may well be the last in a while, what with Easter, exams and field trips on the horizon, but never fear, IT WILL RETURN. Catch you on the flipside, Pit Editor xxx
