Something I wrote recently which I quite like.
Write a wise saying and your name will live forever.
Finding Anonymous
Ever since elementary school, I had been exposed to quotes from someone named "Anonymous." He was a perplexing character as quotes of his ranged from wise to whimsical to crude to oddly modern. Whenever I would ask who he was, people would always tell me "no one knows." Well, this confounded me. How could someone so wise and so well-quoted be such an enigma? Perhaps he was a hermit, only speaking to monks or messengers, hiding away in some mountain centuries ago.
I was reading a dictionary one day and happened upon his name. I was quite surprised; this man was so famous that he had a word coined after him. It was defined as "someone who is unknown or not acknowledged." Well, that would seem to fit with what is known about Anonymous, himself. My theory about him having been a hermit was gaining more ground. The definition said that the word was derived from Greek. Well, now I had an angle! Anonymous was a Grecian.
I went to the local library to see if I could scrounge up anymore information on the identity of Anonymous. I found nil. I searched online and discovered an Internet cult who performed terrible deeds in his name. They veiled themselves with masks resembling, from what I could tell, Cyrano de Bergerac. It seemed a very odd juxtaposition. I gave up on searching the Web and decided to go with my only lead: Greece.
After months of scrimping and preparing, I was able to book a flight to Greece, where I would start my search for the mysterious sage. The flight was long, but thankfully my seat neighbor was an interesting and chatty fellow. At one point during our conversation, he said: "There's an old saying which goes 'don't count your chickens before they hatch.'" I asked if he knew who had first said it and he said that he didn't think anyone knew. Surely it must have been Anonymous!
We landed in Athens early in the morning. I was tired, but I did not want to waste any daylight sleeping. I went straight for my hotel and retrieved the key to the room I had booked. Since I had the attendant's attention, I asked her if she knew anything about Anonymous. She seemed confused by my query. I left her then and proceeded to my room, where I threw down my luggage and went out into town.
I decided that if anything in Athens had info on Anonymous, it would be a library. I walked to the Vallianios National Library and approached a clerk inside. I asked if they had any books on Anonymous. I received another confused reaction. Then the clerk suggested a book on Etymology. I said that I was not interested in the word, but the person. More confusion came over the clerk's face before asking me to wait for a moment. The clerk left and returned with an old text. There was no author listed anywhere on or within the bible. I was told that the author was Anonymous. Of course! It had never dawned on me sooner. Of course such a wise sage would also be an author!
I thanked the clerk and took a seat at a table to peruse this possibly ancient manuscript. Unfortunately, I could not read it as it was written in Greek. I went back to the clerk and asked for a book which translated Greek into English, and was successful in obtaining one. However, all I had the patience to make out was the title: An Analysis of World Governments in the Seventeenth Century. It would appear that Anonymous had also been a prophet like Nostradamus.
Certainly if he had written one book, he had written numerous. But my time in Greece was short and I could not afford to pay late fees on top of mailing fees should the books not be returned by the postal service on time. So, I wandered the city until dusk fell. When I returned to the hotel, I caught a glance of some art on the wall. It was an oil painting with a small plaque screwed to the frame reading "Mount Olympus." A light went on in my head. The realm of the gods! My theory of his hermitage might still ring true. Surely he would have been accepted by the gods for his sagely wisdom.
The following day, I chartered a bus to Litochoro, situated at the base of the Olympian mountain. Being the "City of Gods," surely people here would know of Anonymous. Perhaps Anonymous even resided in this town at some point.
I decided to hire a tour guide to hike me up the mountain. I prodded him about information pertaining to Anonymous, but he seemed clueless. I chalked it up to the historical nature of Anonymous.
The trek was long and arduous, as I had never hiked such a distance before. As we ascended, I saw no traces of housing ruins or even caves. When we came upon the stretch of rock scramble, I determined that Anonymous, being as wise as he was, would not have traversed such conditions for living. It would have been too much hassle to climb every day.
Then inspiration struck. Perhaps he had lived on the mountain, but perhaps did not have to cross the mount. The gods would have most certainly recognized and acknowledged his great wisdom. Perhaps they gifted him with godhood! Such an honor would have been nigh befitting for such an enlightened individual. Anonymous had risen to dwell with the other deities. I decided that the rise of Christianity and the fall of these "pagan" mythos' would have attributed to the lack of knowledge on Anonymous. He had likely attained godliness near the end of the pantheon's reign.
I got down on bended knee and clasped my hands in prayer to the wise Anonymous before asking my guide to return to town with me.
I returned home and decided to publish my findings. I browsed the Web looking for directions on how to write such a book. Then, while perusing Amazon, I made a startling discovery. Someone had already published a book about Anonymous! Author Unknown: On the Trail of Anonymous was the name of the text and its author was Don Foster. I could not believe it. How could I not have found this book sooner? It could have saved me so much trouble! No matter. The journey was worthwhile. Perhaps someday I could be a leading scholar on the subject. I closed my browser and went to bed, but not before praying to the wise deity Anonymous.

After her moving 2006 directorial debut AWAY FROM HER, Sarah Polley returns with this sensitive study of a woman in crisis. Following a chance meeting while on holiday, married late-twenty-something Margot (Williams) develops an obsession with Daniel (Kirby), a struggling artist and rickshaw driver who also happens to live at the end of her street.
Unsure whether to risk everything, including an apparently happy marriage with loveable chef Lou (Rogen), Margot struggles with her feelings and the attentions of Daniel as her life and everything she has built slowly unravels. Exploring similar themes to the 2010 hit BLUE VALENTINE, and with an astute understanding of the frustrations that come with even the happiest of relationships, this mature, beautifully acted drama is a must-see for anyone who has ever fallen in (and out of) love.

The College News VOL. XXI, No. 15 BRYN MAWR AND WAYNE, PA. .WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6, 1935 Copyright ukyx MAWR COLLUOK NEWS. 1936 PRICE 10 CENTS Whittemore Explains Procedure Employed -in Exposing Mosaics Portraiture and Gay Coloring of Mosaics in Saint Sophia Are Excellent 9TH CENTURY INTEREST IN ARCHEOLOGY SHOWN Renowned Actttas Favors Greek Play Dame Sybil Thorndike Says Acting Links AH Humanity With Emotion ACTOR CONTROLS ROLE Deanery, March 3.�Mr. Thomas Whittemore, Director of the Byzantine Institute, in explaining: his work of uncovering and preserving the mosaics of Saint Sophia, announced that five years would be necessary to complete the work on the greater pictures and five additional years for the smaller pieces. The great mosque has recent- ly been made a museum by the Turk- ish Government and Mr. Whittemore is at work to reveal and preserve the beautifully colored and skillfully made mosaic decorations of the church. His work is not to restore nor to remove the mosaics, but merely to uncover and clean them. These mosaics were put up in about the ninth century by the Byzantine emperors. When the Turks captured the city they were left untouched at first, but later they covered them up, since they have a traditional prejudice against figure painting. The mosaics were not destroyed, but were covered with paint or plaster, which was work- ed with the flower designs borrowed from the textiles of Egypt and other nations. The exact date when the mo- saics were covered is not known, but a traveler sketched them in 1710, which fixes the only sure date in their history. At various times in history repairs and restorations have been made in small areas, and braces have been put up to hold the glass pieces in place. Mr. Whittemore's workers have removed these braces, and have fixed the individual pieces of glass and corrected the abrasions of the surfaces and beddings with small copper pegs. All conservation is completed before the paintings are uncovered, so that there can be no error resulting from the work. The process of removing the paint and plaster is long and dif- Contlnued on Page Six Helen Howe Will Give , Dramatic Monologues Miss Helen Howe, noted mono- loguist, is coming to Goodhart Hall next Monday, March 11, at 8.20 P. M., to give a series of sketches grouped under her title, Characters and Cari- catures. Miss Howe has done excel- lent work in the field of the dramatic monologue: in a recent articles in Time her work was highly compli- mented,�"Critics, who had not seen her in Manhattan since 1932, applaud- ed her sly caricatures of the�U. S. scene, rated her less profound than Draper & Skinner, wittier than eith- er." She may not be as deep as Ruth Draper and Cornelia Otis Skinner, but her Characters and Caricatures are highly amusing and range in subject matter from Girl Scout picnics to Garden Club meetings and afternoon sales. Among her best are Madrigal. in which some British socialites re- hearse for a Christmas madrigal sing- ing, Getting Off At Back Bay, and Introducing Dr. Daisy Bell, the intro- duction given by the president of a girls' college in presenting a Dr. Daisy Bell who will address them on the Facts of Life. Her latest addition to Characters and Caricatures consists of five short scenes giving five dif- ferent people's reactions to the recent textile strikes in New England. Miss Howe writes all of her own skits, and comes by her literary tal- uents rightfully. She is the daughter of a Harvard Overseer, Mark Anthony De Wolfe Howe, editor of the Boston Athaneum, and the sister of Quincy Howe, editor of The Living. Age. All of her writing and all of her experi- ence lie in the theatre, however. She went but one year to Radcliffe, and then studied with Georges Vitray in Paris, and later at the Theatre Guild's defunct school under Winifred Leni- han. (Especially contributed in News tryouts) Deanery, March 1. � Dame Sybil Thorndike, England's foremost ac- tress, discussed the art of acting with a fervor which showed in itself her own sincerity and her. very deep ap- preciation and love of this art. Dame Sybil has spent a life in the theatre during which she has made*very sig- nificant contributions to it. King George expressed his appreciation of her work, which has been spread as far away from England as New Zea- land and South Africa, by bestowing upon her in 1931 the honor of Dame Commander of the British Empire. She is one of three women in the English theatre who have received this distinguishing honor. Those who have not been very en- thusiastic about the presentation of Euripides' Bacchai might have heard Dame Sybil to particular advantage. She herself has studied this play and worked on it, but has never acted in it. To her it is the finest and t^ie most difficult of all Greek plays. Laughingly, she said that it was much too difficult for professionals to give, particularly because their perform- ances must be arranged with consid- eration for the public. She greatly envied our independence and said, "It is courageous and splendid to go into a thing to get what you can out of it." Dame Sybil has spent a great deal of time on the Medea. She believed she had obtained from it almost all it could give, but an experience she had in Johannesburg, South Africa, con- vinced her that these plays have in- numerable opportunities for interpre- tation and study. The Zulus and other natives, who acted as stage hands in the theatre where rehearsals of the Medea were going on, began to pay marked attention to this play, though heretofore they had found nothing in- teresting in the actors' manoeuvers. Somehow the natives felt the rhythm and power of the play. Like a flash Dame Sybil saw the problem of the old Greek drama in a modern light. She thought of Jason as a symbol of the cruel, driving white man, who was crushing mercilessly Medea, repre- sentative of these helpless, unreward- ed black races. From that moment the play took on a new and personal sig- nificance for Dame Sybil. It is this personal element that the actor must search for. Not only in actors and actresses, but in every hu- man being there are characteristics, which, though they be suppressed and hidden, can give him a compassionate understanding of all other individuals. True acting demands that you make of yourself a symbol of your own in- nate qualities which are akin to those of the character. Dame Sybil com- pared Lady Macbeth's bigotted selfish- ness to the desires which mothers have for their children; it is true that Continued on Page Six Musical Service The Bryn Mawr Choir will present a service of music commemorating the 250th anniversary of the birth of Bach and Handel on Sunday, March>0th, at 7.30 P.

The winners of the 80-yard dash, the first event of the meet, placed first and second at all the turns, Bucher, '35, nosing out Scattergood, '36, by one second at the finish. 1937 took two, places in the 40-yard free style, Simp- son coming within two-fifths of a sec- ond of the present record, and beat- ing Wylie, the Junior entry, by 8 sec- onds.

Mrs. Morrison, a pho- tographer of unusual skill, is here rep- resented by a group of portrait stud- ies. Of particular interest, perhaps, will be the studies of Gertrude Stein, Thornton Wilder, Harold Ickes, Ethel Waters and Ivan Ahlbright. Short biographical notes about the persons here photographed will be on the bulletin board in the Common Room. Supplementary books of the work of other contemporary photogra- phers will also be on exhibit. It will be noticed that Mrs. Morrison is out- standing in the skill with which she brings out the personality of the sub- ject. The exhibit will be here for three weeks. Mrs. Manning Answers Mrs. Skinner's Letter To the Editor of the College News: I was really distressed to learn from Mrs. Skinner's day letter as printed in the College News of February 27 that my remarks in Chapel on Febru- ary 14 had had such a different effect on those interested in May Day out- side the College than the one intended or the one produced, I think, on the un- dergraduate audience. In the first place, Mrs. Skinner en- tirely misunderstood my comments on the 1932 May Day in supposing that I was criticizing the performance. No one who saw the performance could possibly have wished for anything bet- ter, and it is because of the perfection of the later May Day performances that those of us who have seen them are unwilling either to think of May Day being abandoned or to look for- ward' to its being given any less well than it has been in recent years. Most of us believe that one or two of the plays could be omitted without any real detriment to the performance as a whole, but it is clear that unless the pageant and the dancing are up to the standard of 1932 alumnae and stu- dents alike will be deeply disappointed. The difficulties in 1932, as all who were members of the college commun- ity at that time will remember, were entirely connected with interruptions to the regular work of the semester}1 A week of lectures and laboratory Continued on Page Four Deanery, Feb. 28.�Mr. A. Edward Newton, a distinguished essayist and famous bibliophile, commenting on many phases of the development of the novel, declared that English novels ex- cel in great comedy, wit, and humor, and asserted a personal preference for love stories that end happily. He fur- ther declared that a sufficient purpose for a novel is to provide a pleasant evening's entertainment. The popu- larity" of the English novel has grown slowly, but today it is pur most im- portant literary form, and, while ap- pealing to all possible tastes, it is growing'steadily more sophisticated. The novel is the latest of all the literary forms, although its roo^s can be traced as far back as the book of Job. The first book to be called a novel was William Congreve's Incognita or Love and Duty Reconciled, which is like a one-act Romeo and Juliet. It was not until fifty years later that Richardson wrote his famous Pamela, the interminable tale of the handsome servant girl who led her pursuer into such a morass of difficulties that he finally married her. This book, which offers itself so delightfully to parody, was not considered funny at the time, but so excited its vast public that peo- ple wept over the indignities of poor Pamela and prescribed the book for every young girl. Henry Fielding, the great wit, bur- lesqued Pamela so successfully iit the small Shamela that he developed it into Joseph Andrews, the story of Pa- mela's woman-resisting brother. This books makes Fielding the father of the English novel, and comes to the reader after Pamela as a "fine morn- ing after a sick room." Clarissa Harlowe was Richardson's next work, and is a truly great tragedy of a beautiful woman. It has suffered a similar burlesque in Tom Jones, which ranks as the first great novel in Eng- lish. The only blemish in this other- wise splendid work is the needless in- troduction of a 40-page yarn having no connection whatsoever with the main story, a fault which Dickens also allows to mar his Nicholas Nickleby. Tristram Shandy is an amazing nov- el (according to Dr. Johnson it is "odd"), whose popularity has perse- vered in spite of an utter lack of plot throughout its nine volumes, only three of which concern themselves with the title character's actual life. After these perambulating novels came the period of the Gothic tales, exciting mystery stories where the sus- pense of the plot was all-important. The first of these was Walpole's Cas- tle of Otranto, followed by The Monk of Lewis. The last of these fantastic tales was the Mysteries of Udolpho, whose bizarre peculiarities fascinated the readers of 1812. Scott inaugurat- ed a new*;field for the novel and all of his works are worth reading. The Heart of Midlothian contains one of the finest descriptions of a trial ever written and would be a splendid story had it ended 175 pages before it did, but the last part of the book is filled with the infernal padding that was the bane of all novels until the sim- ple modern format was adopted. Jane Austin came to the rescue of the novel Continued on Page Sit Mediaeval Problems of Hunting, Poaching, Assarting Stated by Dr. Neilson FRENCH AND ENGLISH FOREST LAW COMPARED Goodhart Hall, March 4�One of Bryn Mawr's most distinguished alum- nae, Dr. Nellie Neilson; returned to her alma mater to give the Mallory Whiting Memorial Lecture in history, on The Mediaeval Forest. It centered about a field in which she has done a great deal of research, and the talk which she gave here is the basis for a paper which will appear shortly. Bryn Mawr was very privileged to learn its contents before it is made public. Mediaeval towns, commerce and ag- riculture have all been quite thorough- ly investigated by historians, but the uncivilized wild regions, particularly of England, have long been unstudied and unknown to most people. Conti- mental equivalents, notably in France, have been carefully studied and it is of interest to make comparisons be- tween what is known of them and what has only lately been discovered about similar regions in-England. An ossential difference in the history of English and Continental waste lands is that in England there was no in- centive for spectacular settlements of waste land, such as there had been in Germany, for example. There expan- sion had meant pushing into the land of some foreign country and winning land from it. The use of waste land was an eco- nomic necessity in mediaeval times since every nation had to cope with an expanding population. In England part of this land was inside and part outside the royal forest. The distin- guishing characteristic of a forest was that it was under the rule of a spe- cial forest law and administration. The chief object of this system was to protect the king's hunting. The earli- est Saxon kings had begun the pro- cess of setting aside lands, for the preservation of game, which were to be hunted only by them ,and their friends. It was the period following the Norman Conquest, however, which saw the greatest expansion of the for- est boundaries. William the Conquer- or and his sons and grandsons were great hunters and they afforested many new regions. The extent of the forests in the period of their greatest importance has not yet been definitely established, but it is known that there were probably at least seventy of them. They were not localized in any single region in England, but were to Continued on Page Four College Calendar Friday, March 8. Interclass Swimming Meet. 4.15 P. M. Gymnasium. Saturday, March 9.

Now that you've seen the first episode of NBC's Jekyll and Hyde medical drama Do No Harm, it's time to weigh in: Will you tune in again? Without a doubt, the most compelling element of the show is lead Steven Pasquale's performance as the brilliant surgeon Jason Cole and the monstrous playboy Ian Price. It's fascinating to see how he brings such different, distinct personalities to life. Even when it's not explicitly stated, we know exactly who he's playing.
The problem: Ian is insufferable. A little of him goes a long way, and it seems like it could get really old really fast if we don't learn even a little more about his motives. Obviously he's pissed that Jason has repressed him for so long, but is spite the only reason he's trying to ruin Jason's life?
It's also going to be interesting to see how long Lena will put up with all the complications that come with Jason's double life, especially since she doesn't know about said double life. Not to mention the rest of his coworkers whom he does not have romantic chemistry with — wouldn't they hate his flakiness?
What did you think of the new show? Was it intriguing enough to make you want to tune in again?

Julian Russell/Staff photographer Henry Mathis, a Word War II veteran from Milton, salutes as the national anthem is played during a Veterans Day assembly at Nute High School in Milton on Friday.
MILTON — Nute High School hosted veterans in their gymnasium on Thursday, thanking them for their commitment to our country in advance of Veterans Day.Students gathered in the school gymnasium, to hear a commemorative program on behalf of soldiers, airmen and sailors. Rochester resident Chris Greenleaf spoke on behalf of Soldier's Helpers, a local group that works to support veterans both at home and overseas. The group started in 2003 when about 12 people got together in Milton to sign Christmas cards for deployed soldiers. Approximately 1,000 cards were mailed overseas then but the project has since grown to include the sending of specialty items to soldiers still stationed. "We always had a strong feeling for veterans. They have always done what needed to be done, whether it was during war time, or during peace time," Greenleaf told the crowd. "I felt very fortunate to help."Chris Greenleaf and his wife Alice were honored for their work through the "Heroes Among Us" program with the Boston Celtics in January 2011. Though Alice couldn't attend, Chris remarked both he and his wife think of their family who served on Veterans Day. He mentioned how disrespected Vietnam War veterans were in their time and how most refer to the Korean War as the "unknown" event. "Because of our soldiers, because of our veterans, you children, the next generation, will be able to do what ever you feel you want to do … ," he said. "I might be speaking Japanese right now. I might be speaking German … We all need to help our soldiers know that they are appreciated."

Type 2 diabetes is a lifelong (chronic) disease in which there is a high level of sugar (glucose) in the blood. Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes.
Noninsulin-dependent diabetes; Diabetes - type 2; Adult-onset diabetes
Insulin is a hormone produced in the pancreas by special cells, called beta cells. The pancreas is below and behind the stomach. Insulin is needed to move blood sugar (glucose) into cells. Inside the cells, glucose is stored and later used for energy.
When you have type 2 diabetes, your fat, liver, and muscle cells do not respond correctly to insulin. This is called insulin resistance. As a result, blood sugar does not get into these cells to be stored for energy.
When sugar cannot enter cells, a high level of sugar builds up in the blood. This is called hyperglycemia.
Type 2 diabetes usually occurs slowly over time. Most people with the disease are overweight or obese when they are diagnosed. Increased fat makes it harder for your body to use insulin the correct way.
Type 2 diabetes can also develop in people who are thin. This is more common in the elderly.
Family history and genes play a role in type 2 diabetes. Low activity level, poor diet, and excess body weight around the waist increase your chance of getting the disease.
People with type 2 diabetes often have no symptoms at first. They may not have symptoms for many years.
Early symptoms of diabetes may include:
The first symptom may also be:
Your doctor may suspect that you have diabetes if your blood sugar level is higher than 200 mg/dL. To confirm the diagnosis, one or more of the following tests must be done.
Diabetes blood tests:
Diabetes screening is recommended for:
If you have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, you need to work closely with your doctor. You will likely need to see your doctor every 3 months. At these visits, you can expect your doctor to:
The following tests will help you and your doctor monitor your diabetes and prevent problems.
The goal of treatment at first is to lower your high blood glucose levels. Long-term goals are to prevent problems from diabetes.
The most important way to treat and manage type 2 diabetes is with activity and healthy eating.
Everyone with diabetes should receive proper education and support about the best ways to manage their diabetes. Ask your healthcare provider about seeing a diabetes educator.
Learning diabetes management skills will help you live well with diabetes. These skills help prevent health problems and the need for medical care. Skills include:
It may take several months to learn these skills. Keep learning about diabetes, its complications, and how to control and live well with the disease. Stay up-to-date on new research and treatments.
Checking your blood sugar levels yourself and writing down the results tells you how well you are managing your diabetes. Talk to your doctor and diabetes educator about how often to check.
To check your blood sugar level, you use a device called a glucose meter. Usually, you prick your finger with a small needle called a lancet. This gives you a tiny drop of blood. You place the blood on a test strip and put the strip into the meter. The meter gives you a reading that tells you the level of your blood sugar.
Your doctor or diabetes educator will help set up a testing schedule for you. Your doctor will help you set a target range for your blood sugar numbers. Keep these factors in mind:
Keep a record of your blood sugar for yourself and your doctor. Based on your numbers, you may need to make changes to your meals, activity, or medicines to keep your blood sugar level in the right range.
Work closely with your doctor, nurse, and dietitian to learn how much fat, protein, and carbohydrates you need in your diet. Your meal plans should fit your lifestyle and habits and should include foods that you like.
Managing your weight and having a well-balanced diet are important. Some people with type 2 diabetes can stop taking medicines after losing weight. This does not mean that their diabetes is cured. They still have diabetes.
Very obese patients whose diabetes is not well managed with diet and medicine may consider weight loss (bariatric) surgery .
Regular activity is important for everyone. It is even more important when you have diabetes. Exercise is good for your health because it:
Talk to your doctor before starting any exercise program. People with type 2 diabetes may need to take special steps before, during, and after physical activity or exercise .
If diet and exercise do not help keep your blood sugar at normal or near-normal levels, your doctor may prescribe medication. Since these drugs help lower your blood sugar levels in different ways, your doctor may have you take more than one drug.
Some of the most common types of medication are listed below. They are taken by mouth or injection.
You may need to take insulin if your blood sugar cannot be controlled with any of the above medicines. Insulin must be injected under the skin using a syringe, insulin pen, or pump. It cannot be taken by mouth because the acid in the stomach destroys insulin.
Your doctor may prescribe medicines or other treatments to reduce your chance of developing some of the more common complications of diabetes , including:
People with diabetes are more likely than those without diabetes to have foot problems . Diabetes damages the nerves. This can make you less able to feel pressure on the foot. You many not notice a foot injury until you get a severe infection.
Diabetes can also damage blood vessels. Small sores or breaks in the skin may become deeper skin sores (ulcers). The affected limb may need to be amputated if these skin ulcers do not heal or become larger, deeper, or infected.
To prevent problems with your feet:
There are many diabetes resources that can help you understand more about type 2 diabetes. You can also learn ways to manage your condition so you can live well with diabetes.
Diabetes is a lifelong disease and there is no cure.
Some people with type 2 diabetes no longer need medicine if they lose weight and become more active. When they reach their ideal weight, their body's own insulin and a healthy diet can control their blood sugar level.
After many years, diabetes can lead to serious problems:
Call 911 right away if you have:
These symptoms can quickly get worse and become emergency conditions (such as convulsions or hypoglycemic coma).
Also call your doctor if you have:
You can help prevent type 2 diabetes by staying at a healthy body weight. You can get to a healthy weight by eating healthy foods, controlling your portion sizes, and leading an active lifestyle.

Priority & endangered species
WWF is focusing efforts on a select group of priority species that are especially important, either for their ecosystem...
- Species forming a key element of the food chain
- Species which help the stability or regeneration of habitats
- Species demonstrating broader conservation needs
...or for people
- Species important for the health and livelihoods of local communities
- Species exploited commercially
- Species that are important cultural icons.
These species fall into two groups:
- Flagship species – iconic animals that provide a focus for raising awareness and stimulating action and funding for broader conservation efforts
- Footprint-impacted species – species whose populations are primarily threatened because of unsustainable hunting, logging or fishing.
2020 Species Goal
By 2020, populations of the most ecologically, economically and culturally important species are restored and thriving in the wild.Species are threatened in every habitat on every continent
In the time is takes you to read this page, one of our planet's unique species will become extinct. By this time tomorrow, a further 150–200 will have disappeared forever. And by this time next year, over 50,000 more.
This alarming rate of extinction is 100-1,000 times, and perhaps even 11,000 times, greater than the expected natural rate.
One in four of the world's mammals are now threatened with extinction in the near future. So are one in eight birds, one in five sharks, one in four coniferous trees, and one in three amphibians.
By and large, the cause of this decline is human activities. The land we use for living space, food, clothing, housing, fuel; the things we buy; and the waste we produce – all this contributes to the main causes of species loss:
- Habitat loss
- Unsustainable trade
- Bycatch
- Climate change
- Invasive species
- Pollution
- Human-animal conflict
Species Programme
Flagship species | Footprint-impacted species | |
Iconic animals that provide a focus for raising awareness and stimulating action and funding for broader conservation efforts.
Species whose populations are primarily threatened because of unsustainable hunting, logging or fishing.
Why cactus and cod?
The plight of polar bears, pandas, and other large iconic mammals is generally well known, at least in industrialized countries.But most people don't stop to consider whether the fish they eat, the house plants they buy, or the herbal tea they drink comes from a threatened species, or whether taking it from the wild harmed its habitat or another species.
Most people also don't realize that hundreds of millions of plants and animals are harvested from the wild each year, from thousands of species.
We want to make sure that cacti, cod, and all other species involved in wildlife trade are harvested sustainably and in a way that doesn't hurt other species or their wider ecosystem.

Real money comes in, real money never leaves.
Each week players will receive a number of 'free listings' for the real money auction house, letting them put items up for sale without having to pay real money. Even if you haven't entered your credit card details, you can earn real money from items this way.
Cashing out will be dealt with by a third party Blizzard aren't ready to announce, and that party will charge a fee for the withdrawal. If you don't withdraw your funds, you can spend them on other items in the auction house, or to buy anything else from the Blizzard store – which carries digital versions of all their major games, and in-game pets for World of Warcraft.

My apology I thought you had banned him because of your nice so caring words about him.
Your words.......
He had conflict with many people here, not just me. Aquarian, like you have just done, while demanding tolerance for his lifestyle, was as intolerant twards others as it could get. He was as much of a religious bigot twards every religious community, as he claimed he was the victim of as a gay person. We have a lot of discussions including one about the suicide rate in Gay lifestyles, proven to not be casued by religious persecussion, he insisted about.
My words,
Can a waning phenomenon have a waxing effect? If a survey conducted on the relationship between religious messages and homosexual suicide is to be believed, the answer is yes. The survey, conducted jointly by the Public Religion Research Institute and the Religion News Service, found, writes Kirsten Moulton in The Salt Lake Tribune, "Nearly two-thirds of Americans believe that messages from U.S. religious pulpits are connected to the rising rates of suicide among gay youths…."

The OREI seeks to solve critical organic agriculture issues, priorities, or problems through the integration of research, education, and extension activities. The purpose of this program is to fund projects that will enhance the ability of producers and processors who have already adopted organic standards to grow and market high quality organic agricultural products. Priority concerns include biological, physical, and social sciences, including economics. The OREI is particularly interested in projects that emphasize research, education and outreach that assist farmers and ranchers with whole farm planning by delivering practical research-based information. Projects should plan to deliver applied production information to producers. Fieldwork must be done on certified organic land or on land in transition to organic certification, as appropriate to project goals and objectives. Refer to the USDA National Organic Program (http://www.ams.usda.gov/nop) for organic production standards.

Women's Chill Chaser Thermal Underwear Top
Layer On the Warmth Without Added Bulk In Our Chill Chaser Crew Neck
Women's Chill Chaser Thermal Underwear Top
Layer On the Warmth Without Added Bulk In Our Chill Chaser Crew Neck
We simply love our Chill Chaser Thermal Underwear crew-neck top. Why? Because the inside is lined with soft, cotton-rich fleece that's brushed so it feels extra cozy next to our skin—and it's just the right weight to keep out winter's chill without adding bulk when worn under shirts and sweaters. The fine-gauge sweatshirt fabric on the outside is silky smooth and slides easily under clothes, while added spandex throughout offers enough give for ease of movement. An opening for your thumb at the sleeve hem gives your hand a bit of extra warmth. Doubles as activewear and underwear. Long-sleeved top is approx. 27" long. Cotton/rayon/spandex. Machine wash and dry. Imported.
- Inside is brushed, cotton-rich fleece
- Outside is fine-gauge, silky smooth sweatshirt fabric
- Spandex ensures ease of movement
- Wear under clothing or alone as active wear
- Thumb opening acts as a hand warmer
Say goodbye to droopy, baggy long underwear—our Chill Chaser thermal wear is woven with spandex so it keeps its shape and offers ease of movement.

5 Perfection, at last!nevanno | 25/08/2011 | See all nevanno's reviews (3)I tried them all. Audio Technica (ATH ANC7), Sennheiser (PXC 250), Bose (Quietcomfort 3).All of them good, but all of them BIG. As a result, they would all spend most of the year in a drawer, and when ready to go on holidays they would be left behind because of their size. Kind of defeats the point, really.But not anymore. These little Wolfson beauties are small, therefore portable, so they slip in your pocket / bag / cabin luggage effortlessly.And because of their size, they can also be worn in public, in any and all situations, all year round.Did I mention the sound quality? Just as good, if not better than all the others mentioned above. Just as efficient, if not more, in the noise cancellation department.So all in all, a pair of noise cancelling earphones that you can actually carry with you at all times, and which sounds gorgeous! It even comes with a pouch for transport, and an adapter for those who wish to use a mobile phone instead of an mp3 player (yes, it also has a mic so you can take phone calls with it!)Definitely five stars. Highly recommended!
3 Good sound but....Jondemi | 22/05/2013 | See all Jondemi's reviews (1)I have used these headphones with my Nokia E52 phone. I must say that as a headset they have better quality than the original set which came with the phone. The sound quality is better and louder and you can answer your calls without problems.I have yet to notice however, any improvement with noise cancelling. If it does cancel anything it is not noticeable - and believe me I tried in many different environments and with all three sets of silicon ear buds. If it is windy it is actually worse as you get the additional noise of the wind in the microphone.

Why not have programs that take people who want to learn and educate them in exchange for time served at a slightly lower rat?. Then once they have payed back the schooling in time worked they can earn like "high skilled" workers .
We actually have several apprentice type of programs where we do this. We hire many newly trained people and provide them on the job training. We also have entered into programs with local tech schools where we actually provide scholarships and training programs in conjunction with the school.
However, we had an aged workforce for these positions. As many have retired over the past several years, we were left light on experience.

Hi Tom,
I have been trying to research my husband's mother's family. His mother was Margaret Folan Dawson. She was a daughter of Annie Stuffle,Folan,Cummings as far as I can determine. Annie Married Patrick Cummings but did not have any children by him. I have been trying to find any record of her marriage to Thomas Folan without success. I know that she arrived probably via Philadelphia to Wilmington and her married name at that time was Stuffle, but can find no evidence that her husband arrived with her. Do you have any suggestions?

Bob Cummings
Cummings Lineage
Hello Tom,
My name is Robert "Bob" Cummings and I just came across your profile during one of my searches in Find A Grave. In looking through some of the messages that have been sent to you, it's obvious that other people with a Cummings lineage have contacted you. Hopefully, our messages will somehow help some of us in clearing gaps in our genealogical searches.
My grandfather, George Albert Cummings, married to Lillie May Wilkins, was one of the sons of a William Daniel Cummings, born August 4, 1831 in Sheffield, England. William emigrated to the US in 1841 along with two brothers; Thomas (born 1818), James (born 1821), and Anne Cummings ???? (born 1888). Per the 1850 US Census, their younger brother, Albert was born 1842 in Massachusetts.
William Daniel married Margaret Sheila Leach on August 30, 1853 and had the following children:
1. Mary E., born 1854 - Deceased
2. Martha Jane, born 1857 - Deceased
3. Robert F., born 1859 - Deceased
4. William Jefferson, 1861-1934
5. George Albert, 1864-1917
6. Alice M.D., born 1866 - Deceased
7. Anna Isabell, born 1868 - Deceased
8. Joel Edward, born 1870 - Deceased
9. Hattie Maude (Everett) 1873-1974
Some of this information may help some of your other correspondents and possibly (hopefully) help them contact me with an exchange of ideas and/or genealogical information.

Richard Foster
Edith Harrison's Grave
Hello Tom
I'm Richard S. Foster; Edith Cummings/Harrison was married to my granduncle Charles E Harrison. Charles was Mate to Captain John Cummings on the Tug Boat �Nemasket" out of Fall River, as well as being Captain to the �Mikado/City Point� out of New Haven, CT. My granduncle was lost at sea sometime after 1913, but I haven't been able to find how/when/where. I knew he left a wife and daughter, but until I saw the entry in Find a Grave I had lost all links. I hoped that his wife and daughter had lived a long and happy life, but I see now that she died shortly after he did. Do you know anything more than what is posted? I have gone to the Mystic Seaport Museum and found some correspondences, but they were strictly of a business nature. He worked as a steam boat captain for Jeremiah Smith and Son�s in New Haven. I don�t believe he was employed there at the time of his death, because the last public records I found list him as a �mariner: which is a little vague. I hope you have more info, but if not I�m I thank you for posting the grave, it allows me to close at least one part, albeit sadly.

With all this talk of liquid cleanses and kale juice I thought this was pretty funny:"And stop talkin about kale!" Funny....
TxCraig,I would NEVER challenge you on "Fear Factor" or any other such t.v. show. You are an enigma!!!! While on the one hand you have such a profound appreciation and love for food, on the other hand I think you could probably survive for weeks on River Beetle/Dung Nettle salads without complaining or missing a beat! And then you'd probably then post pictures of said salad that actually look DELICIOUS!!! Best of luck and give 'em Kale, Craig!John K
Too funny.Speaking of kale...
Craig, are those pumpkin seeds?Cheers. --K
Yes - lots of zinc. Supposed to be good for the immune system.
Is it wrong that when I saw the second pic, my first thought was "did that come out of a diaper"?....
Whenever anybody says juicing, I think about that old guy with the bushy eyebrows from the tv infomercials that peddled the juicer machines.
I'm pretty sure I cant afford to live that long.

I really don't have anything to add, I think frrosted covered everything perfectly. Certainly better than I would have.
But I will comment on the above. You may be correct when you say "average" Christian, because a lot of so called "average" Christians are not Christian at all. I believe most, if not all, Christians look at homosexuals not with hate, but with a sadness and concern for their spiritual condition. And don't even mention those clowns at Westboro Baptist Church. Anyway, that's the way I see it.

Gestational diabetes is high blood sugar (glucose) that starts during pregnancy. Eating a balanced, healthy diet can help you manage gestational diabetes. The diet recommendations that follow are for women with gestational diabetes who do NOT take insulin.
Gestational diabetes diet
For a balanced diet, you need to eat a variety of healthy foods. Reading food labels can help you make healthy choices when you shop.
If you are a vegetarian or on a special diet, talk with your health care provider to make sure you're getting a balanced diet.
In general, you should eat:
You should eat three small- to moderate-sized meals and one or more snacks each day. Do not skip meals and snacks. Keep the amount and types of food (carbohydrates, fats, and proteins) the same from day to day. This can help you keep your blood sugar stable.
Eat 6 or more servings a day. One serving equals:
Choose foods loaded with vitamins, minerals, fiber, and healthy carbohydrates. They include:
Use whole-wheat or other whole-grain flours in cooking and baking. Eat more low-fat breads, such as tortillas, English muffins, and pita bread.
Eat 3 - 5 servings a day. One serving equals:
Healthy vegetable choices include:
Eat 2 - 4 servings a day. One serving equals:
Healthy fruit choices include:
Eat 4 servings of low-fat or nonfat dairy products a day. One serving equals:
Healthy dairy choices include:
Eat 2 - 3 servings a day. One serving equals:
Healthy protein choices include:
In general, you should limit your intake of fatty foods.
Your doctor may also suggest a safe exercise plan. Walking is usually the easiest type of exercise, but swimming or other low-impact exercises can work just as well. Exercise can help you keep your blood sugar in control.

Comments On Oct 24, 2013:Great tire. Tough in the desert and awesome traction. Have yet to have a problem.
Additional Comments On May 03, 2014:Been running for 6 months now without any flats or sidewall damage. Hard to tell if any power loss but I ride a 700R Raptor, so.. Great increase in ground clearance. Some leading edge tread wear but I don't baby my bike. And the Nevada desert is rough. Great tire.

Comments On Sep 14, 2013:I mounted the 22" rears on my stock KFX 400. Loved the improved ground clearance. Handles great. Excellent traction. Wear seems to be good. However, there is a noticeable difference in power with the large 22"s on a stock 400. A gearing change may be necessary to compensate loss of low end power.

Comments On May 01, 2013:Great for trail riding with large rocks. Skid plate takes less hits! Tires have excellent traction in wet, muddy conditions. Grabs great in hill climbs. They are limited in snow and sand, but still work good. Had them for over a year and they have about 75 percent life left.

En-Lugal wrote:A research team led by Australian engineers has created the first working "quantum bit" based on a single atom in silicon, invoking the same technological platform that forms the building blocks of modern day computers, laptops and phones.
Andrea Morello, program manager at the Centre for Quantum Computing and Communication Technology at the University of New South Wales, said just three hundred quantum bits, or "qubits" were capable of storing a number greater than the number of particles in the universe.
In a landmark paper published today in the journal Nature, the research team describes how it was able to both read and write information using the spin, or magnetic orientation, of an electron bound to a single phosphorus atom which was implanted next to a specially-designed silicon transistor. (Video)
Dr Morello and Andrew Dzurak from the UNSW School of Electrical Engineering and Telecommunications lead the research team which includes researchers from the University of Melbourne.
They made a hard-drive.
See ...... yet more proof, you don't have an understanding of the science involved.
like iv said a number of times already, Distance is irrelevant, & if you still think that sending a beam of light
( a single photon ) via 1960's technology such as copper wire cables, is the same as sending vast amounts of information in the hundreds of gigabytes ...... and maybe someday larger & more complex information such as a living organism or mechanical object.
then my work here is done ..... you truly are a fool.
that is why i pointed out that Distance is irreverent, because the Australian team back in 2002, has already shown
that information that is both a 0 & a 1 at the same time .... meaning the information / beam of light, was at both the starting point ( location 1 ) & the end point ( location two ) at the same time meaning .... it was already there before it had left ....... ERGO it traveled nowhere ..... making distance Irrelevant.
& as i also pointed out .... it's the technology that is the key and not weather you stood an extra 20 miles apart further than the Chinese team did last year.
Ergo .......
The Australian team who created the worlds first quantum computer & invented the technology that has made Qubits a fact of science .... has in fact created a way of sending more information .... more complex information ... faster .... safer ..... & thus creating at the other end more complex parcels of information.
This will drive the science for many decades to come ... maybe even the next 100-200 years.
But by all means ..... your right, the American / European team stood 20 miles / 40 km further apart than the Chines did & that will surly change the world .... RIGHT
