Duty Free shopping
Duty Free shopping exempts an international traveler from having to pay customs duties on various commodities, typically alcohol, tobacco and luxury goods. Since Duty Free items are for consumption or use outside the country, the government doesn't levy taxes on the goods. Because the duties on alcohol and tobacco are typically high wherever you go, shopping for these products Duty Free usually means significant savings.
Duty Free shopping offers a great deal:
- greater savings – as much as 38% off U.S. domestic retail prices by saving the cost of duty or taxes
- a broad selection of quality merchandise
- numerous Duty Free exclusives, including special previews of designer fragrances and cosmetics months before retail availability
MileagePlus® Premier®, 1K®, and Premier Platinum℠ members can receive a 10% discount on all Duty Free purchases. Customers must have an eligible MileagePlus membership card available to receive the discount.
How to buy Duty Free products
Next time you fly internationally with United, feel free to browse the Duty Free catalog located in your seatback pocket. During the flight, your flight attendant will make an announcement when inflight shopping begins. For your convenience, your flight attendant will bring the Duty Free cart to your seat. Feel free to ask the flight attendant to show you the specific products you're interested in. If you happen to miss the Duty Free service, please check with a flight attendant.

Ivory Kendall Sofa
Exactly what I was hoping for, and in perfect condition
I read all the reviews on this page before purchasing this couch. I was concerned about the couch arriving in a dirty box with black marks or "hard yellow stuff" based on other people's experience.
I'm very happy to report that this was not the case. The box was completely clean on the outside, the couch was well protected by a mesh cover, and the couch was perfectly clean. I think World Market has stepped up their game on making sure products meet quality standards (I talked to a GM at my local store about my concern, he said World Market is working on it).
It looks fabulous in my living room. Completely transformed the space and is good quality. Exceeded my expectations
December 14, 2013
Just what I was looking for.
Love this sofa! I was looking everywhere for a nice ivory sofa that was not too deep (I have a very narrow room). I was afraid to get one online, but I am so happy that I did. As others have stated, the box it comes in is dirty, but the delivery man warned me of this. The little bit of black that got on the sofa could be vacuumed or brushed off with nothing left behind (I think getting it wet may have caused issues with other customers).
May 18, 2013
I love our new sofa. One thing I did notice is that the box the sofa ships in is VERY dirty. If you aren't careful just getting the sofa out of the box will put black-ish smudges on it. Nothing a little upholstery cleaner can't fix! It is beautiful; great material and compliments our formal living room perfectly. Would definitely recommend!

Great sofa...High end look, low end price!
I had been looking for a sofa for quite awhile, found one at another retailer but at twice the price.. luckily I spotted this one before making my purchase! I'm not kidding myself, its not exactly on par with the more expensive sofas and as mentioned in some of the other reviews, its not as substantial/heavy as a more expensive piece but its beautiful, as beautiful as the higher end ones and its comfortable, so I'm perfectly happy to pay half the price :)
December 17, 2012
excellent bang for your buck. It is important to screw the legs the right way.
I received the sofa today and it totally met my expectations. I had looked for a tufted not so big but comfortable sofa to put in my living room. I had found some options at other stores but they were over my budget. World Market gave me a less expensive option with a great look I also bought reading chairs from World Market to complete the look and I am happy with the result.
One detail that is important is to put the legs appropriately otherwise the sofa will feel wabbly. Although it is easy to assemble the legs, if they are not well adjusted the sofa will not be sturdy.

Beautiful couch (and beautiful price tag!)
I bought this couch for a new city apartment. I was initially put off by the idea of ordering a couch online without ever sitting on it, but I'm glad I did - it's very Pottery Barn-esque without the terribly high cost. The material reminds me of a soft linen, and the seat is nice and deep. Throw a few pretty pillows on it and it's quite comfy. This couch won't make a very good sofa for guests to sleep on because of its size, but as a stylish addition to your living room, it's great.
It's definitely lighter than some of the couches I've come across when furniture shopping, but we haven't really had any problems with it sliding around on our hardwood floors. We're going to put a rug under it just in case. Do keep in mind that it's a true ivory color and will stain easily - we're going to have to sip our red wine elsewhere, but that's ok! Overall, I'm very happy with this product.

Good value for $$
My husband and I purchased two of these sofas after reading all the reviews posted. As informed consumers we hoped our sofas would not have the black marks described by other reviewers but were not shocked or upset when they did. We were able to arrange them so the black marks are facing walls but I can understand how people might be upset over this. You've been warned now so plan accordingly.
The sofas are lovely and comfortable and we feel look more expensive than they are. They are also great for older homes or any smaller living/sitting room because they have a sleek, low profile and don't take up much space. The seating is deep, which is great so we can add colorful cushins and not worry about our guests feeling like they are being pushed out of their seats by pillows.
They are a sinch to put together but probably better to have two people there if only to flip them over once the legs are attached.
Overall, we are very happy with the purchase and would definitely recommend them. The fact we could afford two of them and they match perfectly says a lot about the appropriate pricing and standard of production.

Buying furniture online can be risky...
I've never written a review before, but I'm hoping this will help some of you unsure about buying a piece of furniture online--it can be risky.
I received it today and it's...o.k. I was getting nervous after I ordered it because the reviews were somewhat mixed. I think that lowered my expectations a bit--which maybe helped!
The cushions are not comfortable at all. We have a few pieces from a variety of stores: high-end and cheap. This sofa isn't as comfortable as any of those. However, I think the cushions will give in over time. They just have that bouncy, "I'm sitting up straight" feel. I've noticed a few threads popping out, but nothing outrageous, and certainly not noticeable. Shipping was fast, and assembly consisted of twisting on the feet. Easy!
The fabric is creamy white linen. The tufting is consistent, and it's a nice mid-century modern low--which works for us. I really wanted a somewhat deeper sofa for our living room, so when I read that this was 33" deep, that seemed nice. However, the actual seat depth (not overall depth of the sofa) is 24". That would have been helpful to know prior to purchasing. The actual depth is 32" (per our measurements). The length is the same--76". It's very light, but we have the front feet on a substantially deep rug. I haven't noticed any movement when people have sat on it.
I think this piece will last us a few years. I'm not expecting it to be an heirloom, and for some reason I'm not worried about the white. There's plenty of stain remover for that. : ). Good luck!

Ectopic Cushing syndrome is a form of Cushing syndrome in which a tumor outside the pituitary or adrenal glands produces a hormone called adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH).
Other forms of Cushing syndrome include:
Cushing syndrome – ectopic; Ectopic ACTH syndrome
Cushing syndrome is a disorder that occurs when your body has a higher than normal level of the hormone cortisol. This hormone is made in the adrenal glands. Too much cortisol can be due to various problems. One such problem is called Cushing disease. It occurs when the pituitary gland makes too much of the hormone ACTH. ACTH then signals the adrenal glands to produce too much cortisol.
Ectopic Cushing syndrome, on the other hand, occurs when ACTH is produced somewhere other than the pituitary gland. Ectopic means occurring in an abnormal place.
Ectopic Cushing syndrome is caused by tumors that release ACTH. Tumors that can, in rare cases, release ACTH include:
Ectopic Cushing syndrome tends to have fewer symptoms than classic Cushing syndrome. Most people with Cushing syndrome have:
Skin changes that are often seen:
Muscle and bone changes include:
Women may have:
Men may have:
Other symptoms that may occur include:
The health care provider will perform a physical exam and ask about your symptoms.
Tests that may be done include:
The best treatment for ectopic Cushing syndrome is surgery to remove the tumor. Surgery is usually possible when the tumor is noncancerous (benign ).
In some cases, the tumor is cancerous and spreads to other areas of the body before the doctor can discover the problem with cortisol production. Surgery may not be possible in these cases. But the doctor may prescribe medicines to block cortisol production.
Surgery to remove the tumor may lead to full recovery. But there is a chance that the tumor will come back.
The tumor may spread or return after surgery. A high cortisol level may continue.
Call your health care provider if you develop symptoms of Cushing syndrome.
Prompt treatment of tumors may reduce the risk in some cases. Many cases are not preventable.

Walking on Dead Fish
In the weeks after Hurricane Katrina, the tiny town of LaPlace was overrun with thousands of displaced New Orleans residents. Their already bursting-at-the-seams high school, East St. John, took in over 450 new students. Twenty of them were football players. In order to make them feel more welcome, the coach declared all positions were open (even those help by ESJ seniors). For some, that meant the opportunity to play the sport they lived for, but for others, it put their scholarship chances (for many, their only chance at a college education) in jeopardy. But, rather than fight or turn bitter, these young men banded together in the face of tragedy to create a team.

Ask questions, get information
In reviewing states (CT, DE, DC, FL, GA, ME, MD, MA, NH, NJ, NC, OH, PA, RI, SC, VT, VA and WV) that have been affected by Hurricane Sandy we found that most states have not changed their voting procedures. However, some states that were hardest hit have extended hours for registration and early voting.
Below is a list of changes as of this morning October 31, 2012 –
Editorial Note: This blog post was originally published on my Huffington Post blog
It was a quick trip to Florida, but an important one – I was there for the last two days of voter registration in the state. A court decision rejecting efforts by politicians to limit organizations like the League from registering voters unleashed a flurry of activity over the summer. Due to the strict new voter registration rules, the Leagues in Florida did not hold voter registration drive, therefore there was a lot of ground to make up when they began registering again. League members around the state registered thousands of new voters and helped others update their registration.
The League of Women Voters of Jacksonville First Coast, ERA NOW, and Zonta Club of Jacksonville all partnered for a full day of speakers and lunch provided by Clara's at the Cathedral.
Angela DeMonbreun, President of LWV of Jacksonville First Coast, spoke about the long history to obtain women's right to vote and sat on a panel to discuss women in the media.
Deborah Gianoulis, former news anchor, past Florida Senate candidate, and education advocate, spoke about "Finding Your Truth" and sat on a panel to discuss women in leadership.
Sandy Oestreich, President and Founder of the National Equal Rights Amendment Alliance, spoke on the importance of ratifying the ERA amendment for actual equal rights.
Dianne Larson, President of Zonta, spoke about Equal Pay.
About 40 people attended the event and it attracted many leaders from the community. It was a fun, motivating, and enlightening day for all those in attendence.

Bio and Links
April 1861 marked the beginning of the War Between the States. One month later, Annie Hanna was born to John and Athalinda Hanna. John enlisted in the Confederate States Army in November 1861 and served as Private in Co. B, 4th Alabama Infantry.
He was present at many battles in Virginia and served as litter bearer. Athalinda sewed coats for Confederate soldiers and served as Chief Nurse at the hospital in Madison, Georgia.
John and Athalinda are buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Jasper, Florida.
Annie married Thomas Jefferson Darracott and the family moved to Lakeland, Polk Co., Florida in 1895. Annie became a civic and patriotic leader going on to become the founder of the Lakeland Chapters of United Daughters of the Confederacy in 1904, United Daughters of the American Revolution and The National Society Colonial Dames XVII Century. She proposed and spearheaded the effort to erect a Confederate monument in Lakeland's Munn Park in 1910. The figure of a gallant Confederate Soldier now stands as a memorial to all who served the Confederacy.
The Lakeland Chapter of UDC changed its name in 1945. Now the Annie H. Darracott 791 chapter of UDC remains committed to these objectives: Historical, Educational, Benevolent, Memorial and Patriotic.
Annie went to heaven in 1956 at the age of 95. She is buried in Lakeview Cemetery, Lakeland, Polk Co., Florida.
We honor her memory, her leadership and her dedication to UDC.
Each of the Confederate veterans in our virtual cemeteries are in at least two cemeteries. One designating the state he served from, and one designating the state he is buried in.
All Confederate veterans listed in our virtual cemeteries have been researched and verified. If you have an ancestor you would like to see in our virtual cemeteries, please send us the memorial number and we'll gladly add it.

Charles R. Darracott
I believe the memorial #8483811 for Charles Darracott is incorrect, the photo shows a birth date of Aug. 1883. The correct Charles Darracott is interred at Immanuel Church in Old Church, Hanover County and he died in 1885. I have a photo of his marker, but I need to take another as the marble stone is weathered and covered with lichen.

I am added some marker photos for the 5 Rorabeck graves. The graves are located in Section E. There are 5 markers in a row with a family marker inscribed Rorabeck behind the row of 5 markers. I am adding a plot photo. In the photo the markers are inscribed as follows from left to right. The marker on the far left is inscribed, Charles Rorabeck 1827-1906, next is Electa Rorabeck, 1832-1915, next, in the center is Ella M. Rorabeck, 1854-1944, to her right is Ralph C. Rorabeck, 1869-1952 and then next and on the far right of the plot photo is Annie G. Rorabeck, 1879-1963.

Stone Monument at Oakland Cemetery in Clarksville, Arkansas.
Hi there, I am in the process of fulfilling your request for W. Stone at Oakland Cemetery in Clarksville, Arkansas. A civil war veteran. I was not sure if this is a family member or not. I see his wife is buried next to him and there was not a photo request for her. I just wanted to tell you if this is family I am going to upload her as well and her middle name is Eoline not Coline.

Dot was the singer of the Shaggs and we are extremely happy that she has joined the Alternative Tentacles family.
Alternative Tentacles is excited to announce the tour dates for Ultra Bidé's 2013 Fall/Winter tour in support of their brand new CD and LP DNA vs DNA-c on Alternative Tentacles (virus 458). Straight up skull-shattering is what comes to mind when hearing Japanese noisesters Ultra Bidé. On their first US record in over 10 years, they're hyper-energetic, relentless and fun! DNA vs DNA-c documents the trio's duel bass and drum attack, like a monster that pounds ever so thick and creamy, as if it were a custard donut cooked by Satan. Led by original Japanese punk, singer, & bassist Hide, Ultra Bidé will guide you across a complicated galaxy of sound and you're not always sure you will survive the voyage. Equally psychedelic as it is primal and fuzzy punk rock, Ultra Bidé is menacing and confident. Ultra Bidé will be touring the USA and Canada upon the release of DNA vs DNA-c during October and November. Their legendary live sets head directly toward the stratosphere with unmatchable energy. They have got the musicianship and vigor that is clearly the work of heavy music experts. Hide's vocals drive the insane dragster that is Ultra Bidé far past the supersonic barrier, and the vivacity of the band's massive bass and drum sound will pulverize you into a pulp. These guys have been doing it since 1978 and show no signs of slowing down. Fans of the Unsane and the Amphetemine Reptile sound won't want to miss this.

Letters to the Editor -- Feb. 1, 2013
Friday, February 1, 2013 Hillary's gall
To the editor: Wow, I really just had a déjà vu and a dance lesson, too.
Bruce C. Bacon Honest minds
Our hundreds of club members are a diverse lot sharing a passion for gun ownership. We may differ on the finer points of this debate just as others in the general public do but we are comfortable knowing we pose no danger despite the number of firearms we bear. We hope and trust clear honest minds will prevail in this debate. Exploited
Save the pool
The U.S. Surgeon General has a National Prevention Plan. Two of the elements of this directive are "encourage community development that supports physical activity", and "facilitate access to safe, accessible, and affordable places for physical activity." Your handicap accessible pool meets those objectives.
President Last days
In response
To the editor: A response to your Jan. 24 editorial.
From top to bottom, our legislature is painfully aware of these challenges, none more so than Speaker Norelli. The tone she has set in the House is one of seriousness and civility, with the constant admonition that we need to work together to solve these problems. Any "the other side of the aisle" language has evaporated as we now sit interspersed on the House floor. We also sit side-by-side on committees, and many of us are even eating together in the cafeteria. Several of my veteran Republican colleagues have confided that this is truly a positive transformation from the experience of the last session when they held leadership.
I am reminded of the lines in your Dec. 31 editorial "In the final analysis tolerance requires a willingness to consider that the other person or group may be correct. But, if not, to understand what is driving the discussion so that level heads prevail and solutions to common problems are found. " Amen! Old Glory

THE FACETED GLASS FACADE. Taking the official theme of Christian Witness in Century 21, Inc., "Jesus Christ--the Same, Yesterday, Today, and Forever," the artist has created an abstract design suggesting the continuity of the biblical emphases of creation, redemption, and consummation -- an inexorable flowing from the past through the present and into the future. At the center is the cross, historic symbol of the Christian faith. A single color, red, is symbolic of Christ, moving uniterrupted through the entire facade. The 4,385 pieces of Blenko faceted glass, one inch thick in forty colors, are bonded together with epoxy resin covered with marble chips. The window was contributed by the Stained Glass Association of America as an example of a relatively new ecclesiastical art medium produced in America by American craftsmen from American materials. The design was selected after a competition among forty member studios. It was fabricated by Winterich and Associates of Cleveland. Eleven men worked three months to complete the window. The designer is D. Erik Erikson, Jr.

Schirmer's test determines whether the eye produces enough tears to keep it moist.
Tear test; Tearing test; Dry eye test; Basal secretion test
The health care provider will place a special paper strip inside the lower eyelid of each eye, under the eyelid (usually the bottom one). Both eyes are tested at the same time. Before the test, you will be given numbing eye drops to prevent your eyes from tearing due to irritation from the paper strips.
The exact procedure may vary. Most often, the eyes are closed for 5 minutes. Close your eyes gently. Closing the eyes tightly or rubbing the eyes during the test can cause abnormal test results.
After 5 minutes, the doctor removes the paper and measures how moist it is.
Sometimes the test is done without numbing drops to test for other types of tear problems.
The phenol red thread test is similar to the Schirmer's test, except that red strips of special thread are used instead of paper strips. Numbing drops are not needed. The test takes 15 seconds.
You will be asked to remove your contact lenses before the test.
Some people find that holding the paper against the eye is irritating or mildly uncomfortable. The numbing drops often sting at first.
This test is used when a person experiences very dry eyes or excessive watering of the eyes.
More than 10 mm of moisture on the filter paper after 5 minutes is a sign of normal tear production. Both eyes normally release the same amount of tears.
Dry eyes may result from:
There are no risks with this test.
Do not rub the eyes for at least 30 minutes after the test. Leave contact lenses out for at least 2 hours after the test.
Even though the Schirmer's test has been available for more than 100 years, several studies show that it does not properly identify a large group of patients with dry eye. Newer and better tests are being developed. One test measures a molecule called lactoferrin. Patients with low tear production and dry eye have low levels of this molecule.
Another test measures tear osmolarity, or how concentrated the tears are. The higher the osmolarity, the more likely it is that you have dry eye.

Egyptian panel says disputed constitutional vote will be held on schedule
CAIRO (AP) — A national dialogue committee said a referendum on a disputed draft constitution will be held on schedule, but President Mohammed Morsi has agreed to rescind the near-absolute power he had granted himself.
The statement came after a meeting that was boycotted by the main opposition leaders who are calling for the Dec. 15 vote to be canceled.
Morsi had called for the dialogue to try to defuse a spiraling crisis, but the decision appeared unlikely to appease the opposition since it recommends the referendum go ahead as scheduled. Morsi's initial declaration was to be rendered ineffective anyway after the referendum.
Gamal Eid, a human rights lawyer, said the recommendations to rescind some powers were a "play on words" since Morsi had already achieved the desired aim of finalizing the draft constitution and protecting it from a judicial challenge.
The charter, which would enshrine Islamic law and was drafted despite a boycott by secular and Christian members of the assembly, is at the heart of a political crisis that began Nov. 22 when Morsi granted himself authority without judicial oversight.
2 million could lose unemployment benefits this month if there's no 'fiscal cliff' deal
WASHINGTON (AP) — Hovering in the background of the "fiscal cliff" debate is the prospect of 2 million people losing their unemployment benefits four days after Christmas.
"This is the real cliff," said Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I. He's been leading the effort to include another extension of benefits for the long-term unemployed in any deal to avert looming tax increases and massive spending cuts in January.
"Many of these people are struggling to pay mortgages, to provide education for their children," Reed said this past week as President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, rejected each other's opening offers for a deficit deal.
Emergency jobless benefits for about 2.1 million people out of work more than six months will cease Dec. 29, and 1 million more will lose them over the next three months if Congress doesn't extend the assistance again.
Since the collapse of the economy in 2008, the government has poured $520 billion — an amount equal to about half its annual deficit in recent years — into unemployment benefit extensions.
Nelson Mandela, South African anti-apartheid icon is hospitalized, says President Jacob Zuma
JOHANNESBURG (AP) — South Africa's former President Nelson Mandela was admitted to a military hospital Saturday for medical tests, though the nation's president told the public there was "no cause for alarm" over the 94-year-old icon's health.
The statement issued by President Jacob Zuma's spokesman said that Mandela was doing well and was receiving medical care "which is consistent for his age." The statement offered no other details.
Mandela, who spent 27 years in prison for fighting racist white rule, became South Africa's first black president in 1994 and served one five-year term. He later retired from public life to live in his village of Qunu, and last made a public appearance when his country hosted the 2010 World Cup soccer tournament.
"We wish Madiba all the best," Zuma said in the statement, using Mandela's clan name. "The medical team is assured of our support as they look after and ensure the comfort of our beloved founding president of a free and democratic South Africa."
While the government sought to reassure South Africans about Mandela's health, he remains viewed as a father figure to many in this nation of 50 million people. Each hospital trip raises the same worries about the increasingly frail former leader of the African National Congress — that the man who helped bring the nation together is slowly fading away.
North Korea may postpone controversial rocket launch
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea may postpone the controversial launch of a long-range rocket that had been slated for liftoff as early as Monday, North Korean state media said Sunday.
Scientists have pushed forward with preparations for the launch from a west coast site but are considering "readjusting" the timing, a spokesman for the Korean Committee for Space Technology told North Korea's state-run Korean Central News Agency.
It was unclear whether diplomatic intervention or technical glitches were behind the possible delay. The brief statement cited "some reasons" but provided no further details.
North Korea announced earlier this month that it would launch a three-stage rocket mounted with a satellite from its Sohae station southeast of Sinuiju sometime between Dec. 10 and Dec. 22. Pyongyang calls it a peaceful bid to send an observational satellite into space, its second attempt this year.
The United States, Japan, South Korea and others have urged North Korea to refrain from carrying out the launch, calling it a violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions on nuclear activity because the rocket shares the same technology used for firing a long-range missile. China noted its "concern" and called for calm while citing North Korea's right to develop its space program.
Syrian rebel commanders create joint leadership to coordinate fight to topple regime
BEIRUT (AP) — Rebel commanders from across Syria have joined forces under a united command they hope will increase coordination between diverse fighting groups and streamline the pathway for arms essential to their struggle against President Bashar Assad.
While many of the brigades involved in the fighting are decidedly Islamist in outlook and some have boasted about executing captured soldiers, two of the most extreme groups fighting in Syria were not invited to the rebel meeting in Turkey or included in the new council — a move that could encourage Western support.
Disorganization has bedeviled Syria's rebel movement since its birth late last year, when some protesters gave up on peaceful means to bring down Assad's regime and took up arms, forming the base of what became the Free Syrian Army.
But the movement has never actually been an army. Scores of rebel groups battle Assad's forces across the country, many coordinating with no one outside of their own area. While some say they want a civil, democratic government, others advocate an Islamic state.
The new body, expected to be announced officially on Sunday, hopes to form the basis of a united rebel front.
US-led coalition: American doctor abducted by Taliban rescued in eastern Afghanistan
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — An American doctor abducted by the Taliban five days ago was rescued Sunday in eastern Afghanistan, the U.S.-led military coalition said.
Dr. Dilip Joseph was captured by Taliban insurgents Wednesday outside the Afghan capital, in the Sarobi district of Kabul province.
He was rescued in an early morning operation ordered after intelligence showed that the doctor was in imminent danger of injury or possible death, according to a statement.
"This was a combined operation of U.S. and Afghan forces," said 1st Lt. Joseph Alonso, a spokesman for U.S. forces in Afghanistan. "Information was collected through multiple intelligence sources, which allowed Afghan and coalition forces to identify the location of Joseph and the criminals responsible for his captivity."
Gen. John Allen, the top commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, said the joint force planned, rehearsed and successfully conducted the operation.
Johnny Football makes Heisman history; Texas A&M QB Manziel is first freshman to win trophy
NEW YORK (AP) — Johnny Football just got himself a way cooler nickname: Johnny Heisman.
Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel became the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy, taking college football's top individual prize Saturday night after a record-breaking debut.
Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o finished a distant second and Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein was third in the voting. In a Heisman race with two nontraditional candidates, Manziel broke through the class barrier and kept Te'o from becoming the first purely defensive player to win the award.
Manziel drew 474 first-place votes and 2,029 points from the panel of media members and former winners.
"I have been dreaming about this since I was a kid, running around the backyard pretending I was Doug Flutie, throwing Hail Marys to my dad," he said after hugging his parents and kid sister.
Italy's Monti to call it quits after Berlusconi withdrew support; waiting to pass budget law
ROME (AP) — Premier Mario Monti told the Italian president Saturday he is resigning soon, saying he can no longer govern after Silvio Berlusconi's party withdrew crucial support. It paves the way for early elections a year after the unelected economist helped pull the country back from the brink of financial disaster.
Only hours earlier, Berlusconi announced he would run for a fourth term as premier, aiming for a dramatic comeback, considering the billionaire media baron quit in disgrace in November 2011.
The office of President Giorgio Napolitano, who met for nearly two hours with Monti at the presidential palace, said the premier told the head of state that without the support of Berlusconi's party, "he cannot further carry out his mandate, and consequently made clear his intention to resign" once Parliament passes a crucial budget bill soon.
Political turmoil in Italy, mired in recession and trying to escape the eurozone sovereign debt crisis, could spook financial markets, which, with Monti at the helm, had steadily regained faith in the country's ability to honor its debts.
Standard & Poor's rating agency, indicating on Friday that it could lower Italy's rating if the recession endures well into 2013, cited "uncertainty" over whether the next Italian government could stay the tough course of austerity Monti's nonpartisan government moved through Parliament.
USDA to allow more meat, grains in school lunches after administrators, students complain
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Agriculture Department is responding to criticism over new school lunch rules by allowing more grains and meat in kids' meals.
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack told members of Congress in a letter Friday that the department will do away with daily and weekly limits of meats and grains. Several lawmakers wrote the department after the new rules went into effect in September saying kids aren't getting enough to eat.
School administrators also complained, saying set maximums on grains and meats are too limiting as they try to plan daily meals.
"This flexibility is being provided to allow more time for the development of products that fit within the new standards while granting schools additional weekly menu planning options to help ensure that children receive a wholesome, nutritious meal every day of the week," Vilsack said in a letter to Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D.
The new guidelines were intended to address increasing childhood obesity levels. They set limits on calories and salt, and phase in more whole grains. Schools must offer at least one vegetable or fruit per meal. The department also dictated how much of certain food groups could be served.
Cowboys player facing intoxication manslaughter charge after teammate's death in auto accident
IRVING, Texas (AP) — Police charged Dallas Cowboys defensive lineman Josh Brent with intoxication manslaughter Saturday after he flipped his car in a pre-dawn accident that killed teammate Jerry Brown.
Irving police spokesman John Argumaniz said the accident happened about 2:20 a.m. Saturday in the Dallas suburb, hours before Brent was to be on a team flight to Cincinnati for the Cowboys' game Sunday against the Bengals.
Argumaniz said the 25-year-old Brown — a practice-squad linebacker who also was Brent's teammate for three seasons at the University of Illinois — was found unresponsive at the scene and pronounced dead at a hospital.
It marked the second straight week the NFL found itself dealing with a tragedy right before gameday.
Last Saturday, Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher fatally shot his girlfriend before killing himself in front of his coach and general manager. The 25-year-old Belcher shot himself in the parking lot at the team's practice complex at Arrowhead Stadium.

'Woodstock' Remembered
Sunday, August 18, 2013
It was 44 years ago today -- August 18th, 1969 -- that the Woodstock Music and Art Fair wrapped with Jimi Hendrix's incendiary set after more than three days of music in Bethel, New York. More than 450,000 people converged upon the small upstate town to hear rock's biggest bands perform. Although Woodstock was neither the first nor last major festival concert, the fact that the youth of America were able to congregate in one place with no violence during one of the most turbulent years of the decade, gave birth to the notion of the "Woodstock Nation" and gave a voice -- and a face -- to the hippie ideal.
Artists who performed at the legendary festival included Joan Baez, Country Joe McDonald & the Fish, Arlo Guthrie, Richie Havens, Mountain, Janis Joplin, the Who, the Band, Canned Heat, Creedence Clearwater Revival, the Grateful Dead, Sly & the Family Stone, Jefferson Airplane, Santana, Blood, Sweat & Tears, Sha Na Na, John Sebastian, Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, Joe Cocker, and many, many more.
The first day of the festival served to ease the crowd into the music and feature folk groups. The headliner the first day was Joan Baez, who talked about her expectations during the helicopter ride to the grounds: "It was pretty clear on the helicopter ride into Woodstock this was going to be (laughs) a historic weekend. And it was. I mean, I was in the helicopter with Janis Joplin and my mother and my manager. My overwhelming sense was, 'What a treat. I get to be back at this end of the place where everybody, all the entertainers are, meet them all and get fed and treated like a queen (laughs) and hang out in the mud.' It was amazing."
Photographer Elliott Landy was commissioned by Michael Lang, one of the festival's organizers, to take photos of the three-day event. Chances are if you've seen a photo from the festival, Landy was the one who took it. Landy said he believes that Bob Dylan had a huge influence on the transformation of the now-legendary small town in upstate New York: "At the time, Woodstock was just becoming the mecca for music in the '60s. It became that because Bob Dylan moved there and in the '60s, Bob Dylan and the Beatles were the biggest bands around. And Bob was really, at that time, the most influential, and he lived in Woodstock. And because he lived in Woodstock, a lot of other people went up there -- the Band went up there, and Richie Havens went up there, and Janis Joplin was there -- even Jimi Hendrix was there for a while. A lot of people kind of coalesced, I guess, in Woodstock during that period."
Landy says the experience of Woodstock is something he'll never forget -- for three days, the outside world didn't exist: "The experience of Woodstock, what Woodstock was about, was it took a person who was part of the bigger, of the larger world -- with all its tax problems and its bank problems and its money problems and family problems and responsibility to family and blah, blah, blah -- and it cut everybody off from everything. You were part of a new universe. It was almost like you were transported and put into a new world, and the world was Woodstock."
Organizer Michael Lang said that Jimi Hendrix's manager Michael Jeffries drove a hard bargain in cementing Hendrix as the festival's closer: "One day I went to his agent's office, to try to sort of definitively try to get this done or not, and came up with the idea of offering him two shows. I wanted him to open the festival with an acoustic set, and close with the band. And I would pay him $15,000 per set. So now, he's getting $30,000. And the other problem was that I'd established this idea of alphabetical billing and everybody getting 100 percent billing, 'cause I sort of wanted this equality between everybody. And I had no problem with any other group except Jimi again, because Michael wanted him to have 100 percent star billing, and I said, 'Well, you'll get it. So will everybody else (laughs)." )
Michael Lang was asked at what moment he realized that he was helping to create cultural history: "I guess by Saturday, when everybody had arrived -- or anybody who was gonna get there arrived. We knew that this was a historic moment in any case. Whether it resonated or not, nobody thought of that, but we knew that this was extraordinary."

Getting Around Conference Sites
Public transportation to/from the airport
Septa - Airport line
$6 each way. The train stops directly at the airport. Use the machine to buy your ticket before you board!! There's a surcharge if you pay on the train.

Wireless access
Restaurants and other food options
Gianna's will excite the vegetarian, vegan, and carnivore alike. Famous for their Philly cheesesteaks. Also excellent sides and desserts. Not to be missed.
This little grocery store has excellent samosas. A worthwhile trip to University City.
This is a totally vegan restaurant and satisfies all your cravings for food you probably never thought you could again. From Shark Fin Soup to Won Ton to Sweet and Sour Chicken, KOV is phenomenal. I highly recommend the dim sum.
An excellent place just across the street from the conference center. You can buy groceries or a meal. It has Amish foods and various other kinds of food. Some of my favorite vendors are: Famous 4th Street Cookie Company, Nanee's Kitchen (Indian), Iovine's produce.
It has free wireless, but it is ALWAYS crowded!
Middle Eastern and American food (meaning, you can get both falafel and fries). Seriously the best falafel and baba ganoush this user has ever experienced.
Vietnam Restaurant 221 N. 11th St (near the convention center)
Kinda fancy, but not too expensive. Has several tofu options.
910 Christian Street (9th and Christian) Sabrina's is really crowded if you go for brunch, but not so bad for dinner. It's near the Italian Market, which is also worth checking out. For vegetarians, who might otherwise miss out on Philly cheesesteaks, Sabrina's has a great seitan version! The menu is kind of like classic American food with a twist. BYOB
Farmacia 15 S. 3rd St (3rd and Market) - about 7 blocks from the Convention Center
A little expensive, entrees cost $13-25. Several vegetarian options. It's the kind of place where even if you order something ordinary, the food is extra good.
3420 Sansom Street (34th and Sansom, near UPenn)
A little expensive, $16-25 entrees. There are usually only a few vegetarian options. Ingredients are mostly local, organic and seasonal. The owner is committed to social justice, and they host many community events. Very good!
- South East Chinese Restaurant. 1000 Arch St. (Corner of Arch and N. 10th Street). Chuck says: "my favorite vegetarian Chinese restaurant was always South East, I think it's called. It's on a corner near the Greyhound station."
221 Church Street (2nd and Church, a small street just north of Market)
In addition to being a terrific Ethiopian restaurant, Dahlak is a great bar. When I lived in Philly (2001), they also had a dynamite jukebox. In west Philly.

This appeared in Mumbai Mirror today.....
It's not the story of Mumbai but all metropolitan cities of S. Asia that inch by inch they are loosing their soul.... Great article
oprah can show whatever she wants
she can depict whatever she wants, she does not hv vandals, harassing her.
you obviously can't.
so this article to justify yourself, shobha.
just keep laying low.
you can do one thing, generate controversy easily because politicians are so gullible.
Hello Shobha looking gorgeous as always in all your pix in your previous blogs. At the beginning your Mumbai sounded like an incarnation of "Tsen Spirit" that are of course known to have high level of self preservation, and brave. Legend has it that they can even detect someone by the smell of his or her urinary!!! But I'm dissipointed how she ended towards the end! May she get well soon!!! Tinggggg :) Lots of love to ya!
i was surprised and shocked of the reaction with regard to your tweet...I don't live in Mumbai but I have known you through your books,blog,interviews etc and I know how much you love your city,no way you will do anything which will in anyway harm your beloved city...I don't care about what others thought of your tweet but I know one thing for sure you love Mumbai...iam with you!
It is not telegu but telugu.
Ops! Correction: urine not urinary!
Hi i just want to say that your blog is great its keep the picture of mumbai but i also want to say that no meaning of giving comment.

The Passive House Institute (PHI) is an independent research institute that has played an especially crucial role
in the development of the Passive House concept - the only internationally recognised, performance-based energy standard in construction. Learn more about the Institute and its work.
Passive House Conference in Leipzig with many offers for municipalities The success of the energy revolution will largely be decided at the local level. The building sector is especially important here because this is where a third of the total energy is consumed. Opportunities for greater efficiency in cities and municipalities will be one of the main topics at the International Passive House Conference in Leipzig. Municipal representatives will be able to attend lectures addressing their specific needs. Speakers from many European countries will also present the results of the EU funded project PassREg. more |
Programme of International Passive House Conference 2015 now available The Passive House Standard enables every building owner to benefit from the energy revolution, with certified components ensuring cost-effectiveness. This basic concept will be the focus of the International Passive House Conference, held from 17 to 18 April 2015 in Leipzig. Speakers from all over the world will present exemplary projects and solutions for building systems, ventilation units and windows. An exhibition will provide specific examples of products currently available on the market. more / Conference Programme / Registration |
New EU-funded project Sinfonia looks to refurbishment master plans Institutions across Europe are working together in the EU-funded project Sinfonia in order to develop feasible energy refurbishment concepts for cities. For the demo
cities Innsbruck and Bolzano master plans are prepared and implemented at urban district level. The energy savings are being monitored |
"Active for more comfort" - Passive House brochure as online flipbook How does a Passive House work? Which requirements exist with regard to components, planning, design, and project implementation? What is it like to live in a Passive House, what has already been built, and why are Passive Houses such an attractive investment? In order to competently answer such questions, the International Passive House Association (iPHA) has created the informational brochure "Active for more comfort". A new edition of this brochure is now available as an online flipbook. |
New designPH takes Passive House planning to a whole new level Passive House planning has never been more convenient. The new designPH, a 3D model interface developed by the Passive House Institute, allows for graphic input of energy related design data. Details relating to the thermal building envelope and shading are entered automatically and can be optimised if necessary. The treated floor area can be gradually refined in order to simplify the design process. The results can be exported into the Passive House Planning Package (PHPP) with just a few clicks. more / order now |
Monitoring confirms efficiency of Passive House tennis hall in Sweden On the tennis court, Stefan Edberg was the number one for a long time – today the Swede is reaching top scores with his own indoor sports centre. As the first of its kind, the "Södra Climate Arena" in the city of Växjö was built to Passive House Standard in 2012. New monitoring results not only confirm the low consumption values, but the heating demand during the first two years of operation was even lower than anticipated. A user survey also indicates a high level of satisfaction with the comfortable conditions inside the hall. more |
Component Award for windows in the context of refurbishments Replacing the windows in a building can improve its energy efficiency significantly. In order to acknowledge particularly suitable products, the Passive House Institute is announcing the Component Award for the second year. This time the focus will be on windows which provide good results both during a transitional period without façade insulation as well as after completion of the refurbishment. The winners will be presented at the International Passive House Conference, to be held from 17-18 April 2015 in Leipzig. more |
Number of certified Passive House square metres reaches one million Building owners throughout the world are increasingly turning to the Passive House Standard – the number of square metres that have been certified internationally has now reached one million. The symbolic threshold was crossed with the certification of a detached house in Santa Cruz in California. Almost 25 years after the construction of a prototype house in Darmstadt, tens of thousands of tenants and home owners continue to benefit from the low heating costs and high level of comfort provided by Passive Houses. more |
Concept of step-by-step building refurbishment honoured with award A concept developed by the Passive House Institute for the energy-focused modernisation of buildings has won first prize in a competition. The award jury especially lauded the approach of a "refurbishment road map" with appropriate individual steps. The concept was largely developed within the framework of the EU funded EuroPHit project. The intent is to provide both a certification of such "overall road maps" as well as an energy assessment of the individual refurbishment steps in the planning tool PHPP. more |
Thousands of visitors at International Passive House Days During the International Passive House Days in early November, hundreds of buildings around the world were opened to the public. Thousands of visitors, wishing to experience the benefits of this energy-efficient construction method for themselves, took advantage of this opportunity: in Europe and America as well as in Asia and New Zealand. Experts demonstrated how it works, residents shared their experiences. An overview of the buildings that were opened is provided on www.passivehouse-database.org (Photo: Gauler) |
Sustainability award presented to Passive House pioneers A high-level recognition was awarded to Prof. Emeritus Bo Adamson and Prof. Wolfgang Feist with the presentation of the Sustainable Building Award on Thursday in the City of Lund, Sweden. Over 25 years ago, the two physicists developed the concept of a building that needs no active heating; today, the resultant Passive House Standard forms the fundamental basis for energy efficient construction throughout the world. The Award was presented by the former EU Commissioner for the Environment, Margot Wallström. more |
Italy's first Passive House School near Verona receives certificate Energy efficiency and climate protection are a learning process for everyone. Consequently, a school building is always an ideal object of study in the context of building construction. An excellent example of this has been inaugurated near Verona in Italy: the "Scuola Passiva Raldon" – the country's first Certified Passive House School. This new build combines high quality architecture with sophisticated building systems, featuring a special ventilation system integrated into its façade. more |
PHPP with Anglo-American measurement system now available A new version of the Passive House planning tool PHPP is now available for sale. It allows complete data input based on the imperial system of units. The IP-PHPP was developed specially for the North American market where this system is used by numerous designers and architects (more / order now). |
Designers and architects gear up for the future of construction With the growing importance of energy efficient construction, the need for relevant knowledge is also increasing. Designers and architects around the world are therefore equipping themselves with the necessary expertise - the number of certified Passive House experts has now reached the 4,000 mark. |
Award for Heidelberg Passive House district now visible in the cityscape Heidelberg's Bahnstadt is the world's largest Passive House district – recently awarded the 2014 Passive House Award at the International Passive House Conference for its exemplary nature. More than one hundred projects entered to compete in a total of six categories. The Bahnstadt district was far and away the favourite in the "region" category. The official award plaque has now been affixed to a kindergarten in the district, thereby making the international recognition visible to passers-by within the cityscape itself. more / photos |
Accolade for world-class architecture in Passive House Standard Building with an eye to energy efficiency is not only cost-effective, it can also augment architectural design. This has been proven by the winners of the 2014 Passive House Award. Seven projects were recognised: an apartment block in Berlin (Germany), a New York retrofit (USA), a seminar building in Goesan (South Korea), an art museum in Ravensburg (Germany), a building complex in Espoo (Finland), a terraced house in Philadelphia (USA) and an entire Passive House district in Heidelberg (Germany). more |
New Passive House categories also rate building energy gains The efficiency of the clearly defined Passive House Standard has been proven thousandfold – to also offer a reliable means of orientation regarding the additional use of renewables, the Passive House Institute now introduces new categories. These will not only take energy demand into account, but also energy supply through, for example, solar panels. In this way, Passive House offers an attractive solution for the energy revolution while serving as the basis for the "Nearly Zero Energy Building" of the European Building Directive. more |
Passive House also provides answer to energy efficiency in the tropics Whether in India, Singapore or Brazil – Passive House principles also work in tropical climates. The focus, however, changes: while heating is typically not needed in these climates, efficient cooling and dehumidification methods play an important role. A new study by the Passive House Institute gives concrete design recommendations, showing that, in the Passive House of the tropics, energy demand is also drastically reduced. The entire study is now available online on the knowledge platform Passipedia (member area). more |

So we will in a way never know the relation with Mindsnare, and the Ever After asylum. Unless it is decided to back track a little bit and cover it, but I doubt it since it is not a important note.
It would be helpfull though. Besides that, if they were to explain it then they could be interesting.

The News Volume III. No. 28 BRYN MAWR, PA., MAY 23, 1917 Price 5 Cents AMY LOWELL'S HUMOR SAVES HER Imagist Poet Long Applauded Says New Poetry is Not a Mat- ter of Form "If you don't like It, hiss. If you do ap- plaud, but for God's sake do something", was the remark by which Miss Lowell put her audience in a keen humor to ap- preciate the imagist verse which she read last Friday night at an open meeting of the English Club in Taylor Hall. Vers llbre is neither metrical nor syllabic, said Miss Lowell, but is based on cadence. The four points in which the so-called "new poetry" differs from the old are viv- idness, suggestion, concentration and ex- ternality. Um of "Mot Juste" Essential To avoid getting a "woolly" effect In poetry, and thus obliterating the above qualities, Miss Lowell stressed the need of finding the "mot Juste", and in this, she said, one should not be hindered by the exigencies of rhyme. Since the time of Tennyson's mellifluous verse, continued Miss Lowell in a very slight historical survey, poetry has become visual rather than auditory. Everything is sacrificed to vitality and movement in free verse (a term, she added, which is meaningless and not to be used, since vers libre has now been taken over into the language). "Hoops" and "Battledore and Shuttle- cock" were read as illustrating this point. Miss Lowell prefaced the reading of her poems with the comment that she was choosing not the things we liked but the (Continued on page 2, column 2.) B. B. CHAMPIONSHIP GOES TO 1917 FOR THIRD TIME THE SENIOR PLAYS AND THE SENIOR PLAYWRIGHTS Whirlwind Victory Over 1919 Brings Triple Honor to the Red Champions now in basket-ball, hockey, and water-polo, and the first class to hold the basket-ball title for three consecutive years, 1917 hung its banner on the gym- nasium last Monday for the third succes- sive first team victory this year. 21 to 9. the reds trampled down the plucky green in a hard-fought contest which looked at first as though it were going to the soph- omores. Two minutes after the first whittle M. Peacock '19 threw a spectacular goal, fol- lowing it by a second one before the senior team recovered. C. Stevens '17 next scored on a free throw and the score stood 4-1 in the sophomores' favor. Both sides were fighting hard when L. Brown '17 eluded her guard long enough to tip the ball over the edge, and bring the score up to 4-3. An exchange of free throws netted nothing for either side; but 1917 fouled again and M. Peacock '19 nailed one more point. Victory seemed to be slipping from the hands of the champions when L. Brown '17, with a nice shot from the side, de- stroyed the sophomores' lead. Her third goal went In a moment later and the half ended: 1917, 7; 1919, 5. In a fine drizzle irritating to the gal- lery but not interfering with the players, (Continued on page 2. column 3.) C. A. Policies Framed as By-Laws Decisive Meeting This Week Four policies of the Christian Associa- tion, first, that no money be pledged or raised by any committee except as au- thorized by the Association; second, that the accounts of the treasurer and com- mittees be audited once a year; third, that no speakers be invited to speak at the college without the consent of the Board, and, fourth, that no delegate at- tend any conference without the consent of the Board, were accepted as by-laws at a meeting of the Association last Thursday. To become valid they must be passed again, and a second meeting will be held this week. FACULTY CONTRIBUTES LARGELY TO THI8 YEAR'8 LANTERN Contains First Published Work on John Payne, English Poet Among the contributors to this year's "Lantern", which will be out some time during Commencement Week, are Miss Georgiana Goddard King, Professor of History of Art. and Dr. Rhys Carpenter, Associate Professor of Archeology, both writing poems. Dr. S. C. Chew, Associate Professor of English Literature, is con- tributing an article on John Payne, poet and translator of the 19th and early 20th century. Dr. Chew's article derives spe- cial Interest from the fact that it is the first detailed account of Payne's work to appear in print.

MISS GARRETTS PORTRAIT PRESENTED BY PRESIDENT THOMAS Original at Johns Hopkins Miss Garrett's portrait, which has re- cently been hung in the library reading room, is a copy of a portrait painted of Miss Garrett by John S. Sargent in Lon- don in July. 1904. when she was fifty years old. The original portrait hangs in the reading room of the library in the new administration building of the Johns Hop- kins I'niversity at Homewood. It was painted by request of the Trustees of the University In recognition of Miss Gar- rett's large gifts which made it possible to open the medical school of the uni- versity. This copy was presented to the college by President Thomas and was painted by the artist. Miss Gabrlelle de Vaux clem ents, who was a personal friend of Miss Garrett. Miss Clements Is not only well known as an original artist but has a pe- culiar gift of copying old masters. Three of her copies of old masters hang in the stair hall of the Deanery and her copy of one of Titian's madonnas hangs over the mantelpiece in the study of the Deanery. It was that which the art critic. Mr. Bern- hard Berenson. called the best old master In the T'nited States. The Sargent por- trait is the first copy Miss Clements has made of a modern picture, but she has been so successful that it Is hard to tell it from the original. Obscure Plot and Charming Costumes in "On a Mantel Piece" M.

Kathlen ..........Constance Hall A Soldier ....................Helen Han-la Scene�The main room of a cottage in Ireland. Time�The present, late one Spring night. The branch from Harvard that has been grafted on the curriculum at Bryn Mawr has come quickly to bloom; Dr. Savage's class in dramatic technique, though only In Its first year, has accomplished two plays thought worthy of performance. It is a pity that the Instructor and coach was unable to be present to see the result of his work. The idea In "On a Mantel Piece" is as gossamer-like as the wings of the moon- moth and was blown hither and thither almost as lightly as was the Pot-pourri. "The best of this kind are but shadows" and it takes a good deal of imagination to mend those that are less excellent. To make up for want of thought and action there was effective scenery and there were costumes that in several Instances were charming. Others besides entomologists could admire that "highest form of lunar motlis" as portrayed by Miss Harris. Miss Smith was as sweet and faded as the old- fashioned concoction that she repre- sented, though memories of Patience re- sented the successful efforts of the make- up man to wither her adequately. Miss <'hase was of course the "most alluring of all dolls". The Poet (Miss RusBell) was not "modern", for he was handicapt by the exigencies of rime In his efforts to capture the mot Juste. Even alternate applications of his pen to the ink-well and to his lips failed to produce results that were much better than free verse. The audience caught Miss O'Shea red-handed as the Golden God. How did she manage to spill so much Roger-and-Gallet on her palms and finger-tips? Miss Bird and Miss Greenough as the worldly-wise Can- dles apparently "symbolized" the end- men in a minstrel show and got off a good many aphorisms of no very high candle- power. For example, the observation that "Poetry makes the hair grow thinner" Is quite pointless at Bryn Mawr, isn't it? The remainder of the cast supported their parts well, if airy nothings can be said to need support. Not the least attention- absorbing part of the performance were the patient efforts of the clock to get its hands around to midnight: one step for- ward and two steps back, then a mad rush over four or five minutes, followed by a pause for rest before a new trial. "The Rush Light" is a well-constructed and melancholy little play In which Miss O'Shea looked the part of the Mother ex- '� cellently and Miss Hall used her beautl- ' ful voice quite delightfully. Had the sol- j dler presented himself to Major Kelly a I few weeks since he would have been ac- l epted for Fort Niagara at sight. The i general setting�Ireland with a back- ! ground of the war�Is what readers of i Miss O'Shea's Masefleld prize-story of last year expected. But the theme of the piece ; Is disagreeable. The motive�that Shaun, because of the greatness of his love for his wife, was willing to turn King's evi- dence and betray the men whom he had led�was not sufficiently stressed to "get across" and even had it been fully em- phasized an audience that loves Ireland j would have been reluctant to accept it. Fortunately the present reviewer knows what really happened. Shaun had been pardoned unconditionally (even the Eng- lish government does not hang all Irish- men "at sun up"). The poor spalpeen wanted some money to celebrate his re- lease before returning home to his rather exacting Mother. So he sent for his wal- let; he quite forgot that the incriminating list of names was In It. But the tiresome old lady misinterpreted his motive and acted the part of a modern Altbtea. The burning of the list did no harm; Shaun was released and has since rejoined his lovely wife. Kathien, who, It would seem, told him what happened In "the main room of a cottage in Ireland" "late one Spring night", for I have heard that Shaun's relations with his Mother have since then been somewhat strained.

TEN POINTS AND THE TITLE CAPTURED BY DARK BLUE 1918 Wins Again on Third The third team basket-ball champion- ship went to the dark blue last Monday when 1918 disposed of 1919 in the second game of the finals by a score of 20-4. The third team title, secured by four straight victories over the odds, means ten points towards the all-round championship and raises the Junior total to twenty-one.
