court martial

A court martial (plural; "courts-martial") is a military court that determines punishments for members of the military subject to military law, and may also be used to try enemy POWs for war crimes. The Geneva Conventions requires that POWs who are on trial for war crimes are to be subject to the same procedures as would be the holding army's own soldiers.

Hampshire Martini

Coined in a Hampshire College Mod kitchen many times over, a Hampshire Martini is any mixed drink made using a needlessly large Mason Jar in lieu of a traditional Cocktail Shaker. Despite the mention of martini in the title, any cocktail recipe can be employed, as long as one assembles the contents in a jar over ice, shakes or stirs accordingly, and then uses the Mason Jar's lid to strain the liquid into the appropriate glass: another mason jar.
"Any real Hampshire student, given the do-it-yourself nature of such a wonderfully liberal college, would not be caught dead without making their cosmopolitans up Hampshire martini style."

"Even the neo-marxists?"

"Sweetheart, especially the neo-marxists."
