NEW PROFESSORSHIP IN 80CIAL RESEARCH President Thomas Speaks in Chapel on March 12, 1915 It gives me great pleasure to announce to you that a new professorship has been founded by the directors of the College in memory of C'arola Woerlshoffer who graduated from Bryn Mawr College In 1907 In the group of economics and phil- osophy, and during the remainder of her short life, from 1908 to 1911, became one of the most original and -most truly help- ful workers for social betterment Car- ola Woerlshoffer set herself to investi- gate the social conditions of women in New York City In a way in which, I think, it had scarcely ever been investi- gated before. For example, she took a position as a working laundress In one of the steam laundries of the city, run- ning the risk of having her fingers and hands cut off that all laundresses have to run, because the launderers will not put in properly protected machinery; and she effected many reforms in this trade and in many other trades, as, disguised as a working woman, she went through one after another different dangers and hardships to which New York working women are exposed. Her devoted per- sonal work and her large fortune were always at the disposal of labouring wo- men. At the time of the great shirt waist strike in New York, she protected on the streets and balled out of prison, poor girls who would otherwise have been unjustly Imprisoned. Indeed, she lost her life in the service of working men and women, for she was on her way, as special inspector of labor, to investi- gate the abuses of alien camps in New York State, when the automobile In which she was driving overturned and killed her. Carols Woerlshoffer was a student In Bryn Mawr College at the time when the College, which was running behind about $30,000 a year, was face to face with the alternative of closing department after department of teaching or of getting more endowment. She made her will when she waa a Senior and left the Col lege three-quarters of a million. Ttala splendid gift added to the endowment received through the gifts of its Alumna* and friends In 1910. has made It possible for Bryn Mawr College to continue and broaden its academic work. Ever since Carols Woerishoffer's death the directors and every one that knew and loved her, have felt that her name and life-work ought to be commemorated in some fit- ting way in the College which she loved and endowed. The directors feel that the time has now come to create a Carola Woerlshoffer professorship and a Carola Woerlshoffer department of graduate work which shall give graduates of Bryn Mawr and other colleges, who wish, like Carola Woerlshoffer, to devote them- selves to social service, scientific train- ing in investigating social conditions such as only a college like Bryn Mawr can give to the best advantage. We hope that as year after year the fellows and graduate scholars of Bryn Mawr with the Carola Woerlshoffer Professor of Social Economy and Research in the investigating of social conditions with all the help that our admirable departments of economics and politics, psychology and education can give them they may he able to make genuine contributions to their study and Improvement. Such scientific studies are far more needed, In my opinion, than active workers. Ac- tive workers are everywhere in plenty, but very little preventive work is being done in a scientific way. The two lines of human endeavor and research that seem to me to be attracting the greatest ability of the younger generation are medical research�the cause and the cure of disease, the study of the effect of dis- ease and heredity on the human race� and social service and the study of the conditions of our present civilization. Many of the most intellectual eager and self-sacrificing members of your genera- tion will devote yourselves to this latter work. Already one-fourth of all Bryn Mawr graduates are doing some kind of social work. It is a great satisfaction that Bryn Mawr College is able to offer its own graduates and graduates of other colleges this great opportunity for prepa- ration. I think that you may be interested to know that the last time I saw Carola Woerlshoffer I asked her, with the knowl- edge she had then of practical philan- thropic work, what course or group she would have taken in Bryn Mawr College. She said that it seemed to her that her group of economics and philosophy had given her the best possible preparation. At a meeting of the Board of Directors, held on February 19. 1915. the following minute was passed: That in the judg- ment of the Board, the time has now come to take the first steps toward as- sociating' the name of Carola Woerls- hoffer in a fitting and lasting way with Bryn Mawr College by opening a gradu- ate Department of Social Economy and Social Research to be called by her name, which will give advanced scientific training to women in the field of philan- thropic and social work to which Carola Woerlshoffer devoted her best energies a'ter her graduation from Bryn Mawr Col- lege, and in which service she gave her life. It is hoped that this department may be developed by endowments and gifts and may ultimately become one of the most Important and helpful graduate schools of Bryn Mawr College. It was further voted to create the position of Carola Woerlshoffer Professor of Social Economy and Director of the Carola Woerlshoffer Department of Social Re- search. It was further voted to found a Carola Woerlshoffer Fellowship In So- cial Research of the value of $525. and In the year 1917-18 to create another such fellowship so that there shall always be two in this department, and to author- ize the appointment of a Statistical Sec- retary of Social Research to be followed as soon as necessary by the appointment of a Reader In Social Economy. The directors then elected to the posi- tion of Carola Woerlshoffer Professor of Social Economy and Social Research, Professor Susan M. Kingsbury, now Pro- fessor of Economics at Simmons College and Director of Social Economic Re- search of the Women's Educational and Industrial Union of Boston, where she had been working under her for the last five or six years, four fellows and a number of graduate scholars whose in- vestigations have already contributed to our knowledge of social conditions. She comes here as an experienced inves- tigator and director of this kind of re- search. Dr. Kingsbury is a Bachelor of Arts of the College of the Pacific, a Mas- ter of Arts of Leland Stanford Junior University and a Ph.D. of Columbia Uni- versity. Our hope is that in each year those members of our graduating classes who wish to go Into social work will be will- ing to give at least a half year or a year preparing themselves for such work by modern scientific methods. I believe the directors will be very liberal In creating Carola Woerlshoffer scholarships to as- sist such preparation. We believe that the new department of Social Economics and Research will become a very Impor- tant and useful addition to the Bryn Mawr College graduate school. CUT RULE COMES UP FOR DISCUS- 8ION AGAIN New System to Authorize All Collections of Money VOCATIONAL CONFERENCE The following subjects will be pre- sented at the Students' Vocational Con- ference on Saturday. March 27th, in Tay- lor Hall, between the hours of ten and one o'clock: 1. "Scientific Agriculture." Mr. A. B. Ross, Agriculturist of the Extension De- partment of the State of Pennsylvania. 2. "Landscape Gardening and Archi- tecture," Miss Elizabeth Leighton Lee, Landscape Gardener, Philadelphia. 3. "Social Work," Mrs. Martha P. Fal- coner, Superintendent of Slelghton Farm, Darlington, Pennsylvania. 4. "Medical Work for Women," Dr. Gertrude Walker, of the Woman's Med- ical College of Pennsylvania. 5. "Law," Miss Bertha Rembaugh, A.M., Bryn Mawr College. Lawyer In New York City. 6. "Journalism." Miss Rose Wiston. of the Philadelphia'"North American." 7. "Advertising," Mrs. H. H. Moore, A.B., Wellesley College, of Wanamaker's Advertising Department. 8. "The Commercial Secretary," Mrs Edwin S. Kelly, late with Brown Broth- ers & Company, New York City. 9. "The Bureau of Occupations," Miss Theodora Batches, Manager of the Bu- reau of Occupations in Philadelphia. The speaker on "Tea-room and Lunch- room Management" will be announced later. The speeches will be limited to fifteen minutes each. The order of speeches and the time of each speech will be posted in Taylor Hall before the Con- ference The Undergraduate Association meet- ing of March 2d recalled October days, for the cut rule was again the chief busi- ness. In reply to a suggestion of Presi- dent Thomas that the undergraduates submit to the faculty a plan to regulate cutting, the following motions were passed: 1. That the Undergraduate Association inform President Thomas that, although the undergraduates still think that a rule regarding attendance at lectures should be avoided, nevertheless, in accordance with the President's request they would suggest that cases of excessive cutting be regulated by the office at the recom- mendation of the individual professor. 2. That the Undergraduate Association will do all It can by announcements each year to keep up public opinion regarding cutting. 3. But that it be stated in the note to the President that whatever the Under- graduate Association may do by way of announcements to keep up public opinion is, in the judgment of the undergradu- ates, of little Importance in comparison with a frequent definite expression by the faculty of Its standard regarding cutting. 4. That, in the note sent to the Presi- dent, it be pointed out that if the method of regulation of attendance is effective, and if public opinion Is maintained, there will be no necessity for special regulation of absences from Bryn Mawr during the week. The Association decided that because of the excessive canvassing for money, particularly in evidence this year, all future collections must be authorized by the Christian Association or by the Un- dergraduate Association Boards or by a majority vote at a meeting held for this purpose. The regulation does not Include the selling of tickets for charitable en- tertainments. G. BRYANT, "17, FIR8T HOLDER OF THE APPARATU8 CUP AN INNOVATION IN HYMNS In response to a request, the choir [ mistress has consented to let every one have a hand In choosing hymns. If any- one wishes a particular hymn sung, she is to hand in the number to Isabel Smith. 43 Rockefeller Hall If it Is within the range of musical possibilities. It will surely be sung at some morning chapel The new and very handsome cup for the best individual work in apparatus, presented by M. Morgan, 1915, was won Saturday by G. Bryant, 1917, who won 327 points out of a possible 340. E. Dulles was a close second with 323 points, while M MacKenzle. 1918. got 309 points. There were not so many people in this second competition as there were in the first, but the work was, on the whole, better. G Bryant, E. Dulles, E. Faulk- ner and A. Davis entered from 1917; from 1918. M. MacKenzle, L. T. Smith and R. Cheney entered. The Freshmen again lacked form. It must be remem- bered, however, that the Sophomores have had a year more drilling. There were five set exercises on the horse and1 on the parallel bars, which had be< ��> practised by the competitors beforehan f. Then there was an exercise set by one of the judges which was entirely new to those In the competition, and. finally, there was an exercise which each one of the competitors decided on for herself.

^� The College News Volume V. No. 23 BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 2, 1919 Price 5 Cent* T. M. C. A. LEADER AROUSES BRYN MAWR COMMUNITY SINGING TO INTEREST IN Eager Classes Learn Rhythmic Movements for Leading NEW TALENT COME8 TO LIGHT Spirited Jailing to "Li'l Lita Jane" and bouncing across the room proved a novel means of self-expression in the community singing classes led by Mr. Robert Lawrence in the gymnasium Thursday and Friday afternoons. Movements of the hands and body In 3-4, 4-4, and 6-8 times were taught Thurs- day afternoon and the class put through special limbering up exercises. Friday afternoon after a review of the different times in which Mr. Lawrence emphasized the importance of making every movement rhythmical, even the smile, the class took chairs and made an audience. Six at a time, they were called on the platform to lead "America" and "The Battle Hymn of the -Republic" while Mr. Lawrence and R. Relnhardt "19 picked the best ones. These were: New Variations to Old Songs Using a regular army slide, Mr. Law- rence led a college sing Thursday night. The program consisted of national an- thems, folk songs, and popular army songs. He added to the old favorites several new ones. One parody to "K-k katle," written by naval men in a training station with no chance of getting near the sea, was: "N-N-navy, beautiful Navy, You're your mother's pride and little slater's joy. When you go sailing inside your bath- tub Then they'll think you are a regular sailor boy." Another one, to "Smiles," was written for sailors' sweetheart*: "I've been out with boys in khaki, out with boys In olive drab, I've been out with several aviators and I found them the best I ever had, I was once engaged to a lieutenant, and I thought to him I could be true, But 1 found the only one I cared for was the boy In navy blue." Variations in familiar songs were ob- tained by shouting the "so" In "Pack up your troubles," like a pistol shot, and giving different inflections to the first two "Ohs" In "Oh, how I hate to get up In the morning." Billy Sunday's famous "Brighten the Corner" was revived as: "Back to your corner. Kaiser Bill, Back to your corner, Bill, you're ill! The Yankee boys came over, and drove your armies out, ' Back to your corner. Bill, you're out!" The same program, cut In half by a speech by Mr. Lawrence on Community Singing, was used Friday night, after which any song asked for was sung. Forty of the students exhibited the method of starting a song on the march, and B. Taylor '11 was called out to lead "America." Sinking a Means of Self-Expression, . Says Mr. Lawrence VALUE 3HOWN IN STREET SINGING "Community singing makes people feel alive by giving them a way In which to express themselves," said Mr. Lawrence, trainer of Y. M. C. A. army song leaders, in a talk In the gymnasium Friday night, following his classes In Community Sing- ing. Mr. Lawrence showed the usefulness of singing as a means of approach in social settlement work by telling of his own ex- periences in New York. Street singing, which he began by dropping a sheet con- taining printed words of songs from a tenement house window, was a great suc- cess, and crowds thronged there, regard- less of December weather. The welfare workers took it up and sent out singers under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. 0. A. These worked especially with children, taking people along to dramatize the songs and to play games with them afterward. The Neighborhood Music Clubs grew out of the street singing. These aim to combine folk Bongs with popular tunes with educational music, ;in<l to train the taste of the people. Community Singing in Factories Mr. Lawrence showed that the useful- ness of community singing extended to work in factories. He tried singing at the noon hour in Wrigley's candy factory with 200 girls between 16 and 90. They began indifferently, but In ten minutes they had become so enthusiastic that they could yell "Hello, France," with the spirit of the troops themselves. During the war Mr. Ijiwrence trained in New York 300 song leaders, 20 of them women, to send to France. Twenty thou sand song leaders in the army camps, and probably more in France, were trained under the standardized system. Bryn Mawr Is the only woman's college Mr. Lawrence has visited, and the first one to have community singing classes. "You have wonderful material," he said, "and I wish I could help you work it up" LITTLE CHRISTIANS CONDEMNED BY BISHOP WOODCOCK "The littleness of little Christians is BOM damnable than all the wickedness of the evil," said Bishop Woodcock of Kentucky last Sunday as he attacked those who cannot meet Christ's challenge. "Follow me." and who yet call themselves Christians. "Whatever we lack," he said, "we need not be degraded. We have knowledge, but have we desire?" Here Bishop Wood- cock exploded the fallacy that "knov.1- edge is power." Colleges may graduate without educating, he declared, for some alumni always go out purposeless, con tent to hear the call, yet not respond. There are two kinds of education, that which others give you. and that which you give yourself, and the conscientious cannot turn from the second kind "You are the great modern problem." declared Bishop Woodcock to his congre- gation. "How shall you transmute Chris- tianity Into personal belief and Influ- ence*" AUDITORIUM MAY C08T $90,000 ARCHITECT'S ROUGH E8TIMATE Ninety thousand dollars Is the estimate for the auditorium of the Students' Build- ing made by the architect of the Wash- ington State Capitol at Olympia, who was consulted unofficially by an alumna. He set (150,000 as the probable cost for the whole building In the Cope and Stewart- son plans, under present labor conditions. Alumnae Promise Gifts An alumna has promised a gift of black velvet curtains for the stage,�Instead of the time-honored red flannel now in use, �If the building is erected this year. The Class of 1900 is giving the fireplace.

A. for a number of years and has been at Silves Bay both years that Bryn Mawr has had a delegation there. Grace Tyler, Vassar. '17, a sister of K. Tyler, '19, has been at Silver Bay three years. She spoke here two years ago, when Bryn Mawr sent a delegation to Silver Bay for the first time in six years. She graduated in Social Service work, and since then has had much ex- perience In industrial workers' camps Bryn Mawr Is allowed a delegation of 25 people. These will be chosen from students who sign a paper which will be put up on the C. A. bulletin board In Taylor.

BEAUX' STRATAGEM TOBEGIVEN BY SENIORS SATURDAY NIGHT Farquhar's Comedy Has Had Long Stage History Queen Anne's England, when a village Inn was more often than not the head quarters for highwaymen and gentlemen adventurers, is reproduced In "The Beaux' Stratagem," to be given by the Seniors on Saturday to 1920. First produced at the Theatre Royal In London In 1707, It is the last and best of a series of lively comedies by Captain George Farquhar. The play was written and acted within six weeks, under pressure of poverty and illness, while Captain Farqubar was lodged in a wretched London garret. Before he had completed the second act, Farquhar felt the approach of death, but lived to hear of the great success of the first performance. Since Its opening night, when such names as Robert Wilks, Colly Clbber, and Mrs. Oldfleld figure in tho cast, many great actors and actresses have from time to time appeared In "The Beaux' Strata- gem." The role of Archer Is said to have he. n one of David Garrlck's best parts, while Peg Wofflngton Is among those who have played Mrs. Sullen, the discon- tented wife. The most recent revival was at the l�ndon Art Theatre in February. The Seniors have made their own acting edi- tion of the play since none could be found. D. Chambers and F. Allison Gentlemen Adventurers Frances Allison and Marguerite Krantz. both of whom appeared In 1919't 8opho more play, will take leading parts Satin dag night. Miss Allison will play Archer, the gentleman adventurer who, disguised as the footman of his friend Almwell (played by Dorothea Chambers '19), sets out with him to marry a fortune. Miss Krantz will take the part of Boniface, the sly landlord of the Inn at which Archer and Almwell put up. Boniface is said to have been drawn from real life and has set the type for a number of landlords in English comedy. The fascinating, unhap- pily married Mrs. Sullen will be played by Helene Johnson. Marlon Moseley will be Mrs. Sullen'* sister Dorinda; and Au- gusta Blue, the landlord's daughter. Cherry. No admission will be charged.

Despite promises made during the campaign that he would [review] the most intrusive portions of the PATRIOT Act, President Barack Obama's Justice Department today is calling for Congress to extend all three expiring provisions, though they were "willing to consider" civil rights protections "as long as they don't weaken" the president's powers under the act.
Yep, suddenly the liberals must love the Patriot Act. Or maybe a cat's got their tongue.

Great helmets, Love them!!
amgdnbue11y Posted:
Thanks for my first time order from J&P Cycles. I'm impressed to receive promptly. (1 week to Australia)

I really like this helmet. The design is very good and the overall use does leave me feeling protected. The idea that it has moving parts to raise and lower screens to protect from wind and sun is very practical. I would suggest a product change though that will include a metal ring to more easily lock the helmet to the bike using the built-in lock provided by the motorcycle manufacturer. Carrying a helmet very much when stopping is not very practical. Locking it to the bike is a very useful feature. Being able to do this easily and securely is also important.

I purchased this helmet for my fiance for his birthday and he is very pleased. It's comfortable, looks good and the built-in shades are a great feature. The only thing he might change is the strap attachment, as it is not easy to fasten. Other than that this helmet is a WIN. I should mention that J.P. Cycles doesn't waste time prossessing orders. I got this order in record time!

Does cover full face, it is comfortable, if you taking a long ride I do strongly recommend it.

This is a really cool helmet. Fits good and I like the drop down shades....

Excellent helmet, very user friendly

I order XL size based on my experience using HD helmets... too small... I did not use the size chart that JpC offer so, half my fault... I returned and request the XXL... let's see...
tomball Posted:
Great Looking helmet. Sizes run small but overall satisfied.
tbird12lv Posted:
I think the helmet is an awesome design. I was disappointed, however, to learn that the helmet is not truly a 3X helmet. They are using a 2X shell and putting padding in the helmet marked 3X. If you need a larger helmet, this is NOT the one you want. Unfortunately, when I contacted the manufacturer, they simply blew me off. There customer service was terrible. I also ordered one of these for my wife and she likes it.

Monika O'Clair/Citizen photo Children hand out candy during the Berwick, Maine Christmas on the Farm parade Saturday.
BERWICK, Maine — Nature certainly returned the call Saturday afternoon as snow blanketed the ground during Berwick's annual Christmas Parade.The theme of this year's parade was "Christmas on the Farm." Set up by the Berwick Recreation Department, the parade also featured other participating towns including: Rollinsford, Somersworth, North Berwick, South Berwick and Lebanon, Maine.Recreation Director Kim Taylor said seeing the Christmas spirit and the smiles on kidS' faces made all the hard work worth it. "Every kid loves to be part of a parade," she said. "It shows off a sense of community and what's going on in that community."Taylor said the recreation department tries to come up with unique themes for each parade. "It sounded different and fun," Taylor added. "Plus there are real animals such as goats, calves and chickens."Leading off the parade was A Berwick police car and fire truck, followed by the Berwick American Legion with their color guard and the traditional Town Crier.The Berwick Youth Baseball U9 All Star Team was chosen as this year's grand marshals. The team won the local, state, and NH regionals this past season. It was an even greater triumph because it was the first time the league has won regional championships in Maine.Coach Adam Podolec said having the team lead the parade was an exciting moment."It was quite an honor," Podolec said. "It was a great accomplishment."Many other businesses and organizations took part in the parade including Noble High School, Berwick United Methodist Church, Berwick Public Library, Subway of Berwick, Southern Maine Tractor Club, Farwell's Auto Center, and the Greater York County Driving Academy.Each group was spreading the holiday cheer whether it was wearing reindeer antlers or dressing up in red Santa coats. Even some of the dogs were dressed up in similar costumes.Of course it wouldn't be a Christmas Parade without Santa Claus getting involved. Kids jumped up and down at the early sighting of Santa as he rode his sleigh with reindeer on the back of a truck at the end of the parade. Float winners were announced in four categories before the parade began including: best overall, youth division, civic division and commercial division. Receiving the best overall float was Krazy Kritters 4-H, which also took first place in the youth division. Coming in second place for the youth category was the Berwick Girl Scouts Float #1457.

Although we are known for having a vast international honey selection at the shop, I think that this year's selection of domestic honey particularly stands out. Over the years, I have gotten to know our domestic honey producers quite well and, while the stories behind their passions are different, they each strive to produce beautiful, unique and delicious honey.

Hands on: Samsung Omni Directional Experience speakers review
Not yet ratedCES 2015Gorgeous design and 360-degree sweet spots of sound mark Samsung's latest audio offerings.
CES 2015Gorgeous design and 360-degree sweet spots of sound mark Samsung's latest audio offerings.
UpdatedMeet the smallest and most affordable member of the Sonos family, but does it deliver on the quality we all expect?
A good looking portable speaker, the SoundBook Go has some nice features and surprisingly balanced sound.
The Harman Kardon Onyx has a stylish design and thumping bass that's sure to please the partying type.
These speakers have built in AirPlay connectivity and create a beautiful sound, but are they worth £1,000 or $1,300?
Mini ReviewIs it a perfume gift set? Is it make-up? No, it's an incredible Bluetooth speaker that looks and sounds amazing.
The surround sound experience just got portable with the E5's building-block design.
MINI REVIEWCreative's Signature Series speakers are the company's flagship products, and with good reason.

Hurricane Awareness; Storm Surge, Waves and Marine Safety
July 19, 2012
Hurricanes bring severe hazards to coastal and marine interests. For Maine, because of our densely populated coastline, fisheries and ports, these hazards need to be well understood.
Storm surge
Storm surge is a large dome of water that is pushed toward the shore by the force of the winds circulating around the storm. This advancing surge combines with the normal tides to create the hurricane storm tide, which can increase the mean water level 15 feet or more.
The greatest storm surge generally occurs just to the right of the storm track, where the strongest winds of the storm are blowing onshore, perpendicular to the coast. In addition to the surge, wind-driven waves in that area can also cause considerable damage to structures. This rise in water level due to the surge can result in severe flooding in coastal areas, particularly when the storm surge coincides with the normal high tides. For areas of the coast less than 10 feet above mean sea level, the danger from storm surge can be tremendous.
The location with the greatest potential for storm surge along the northern New England coast is the Penobscot River near Bangor, Maine. Computer model estimates indicate that the funneling effect of the Penobscot Bay and River could lead to a 23 foot tide for a Category 3 hurricane moving north at 40 mph.Along the New Hampshire and Maine coast, the greatest threat of damage from storm surge lies in the beach areas south of Portland and in Penobscot Bay.
In addition to the speed and intensity of the hurricane, the level of surge in a particular area is also determined by the slope of the underwater topography and the shape of the coast line. A shallow slope and the funneling effects of a bay will contribute to a greater surge. Areas with a steeper continental shelf will not see as much surge, although large breaking waves can still present major problems. Storm tides, waves, and currents in confined harbors can severely damage ships, marinas, and pleasure boats.
In northern New England, the greatest factor in determining the effects of a storm surge is the timing of the surge with respect to the astronomical tides. If the storm surge hits at the time of low tide, little if any coastal flooding will occur. If, however, the surge hits at high tide, considerable coastal flooding, beach erosion, and other damage is possible. Unfortunately, the exact timing of landfall in northern New England is often difficult to predict very far in advance, so plans should be made based on the possibility the surge could strike at high tide.
Wave action
Wave and current action associated with the tide also causes extensive damage. Water weighs approximately 1700 pounds per cubic yard, and extended pounding by frequent waves can demolish any structure not specifically designed to withstand such forces. Waves generated from distant or approaching storms can also present a hazard to those who are near the ocean. Strong rip currents can carry even strong swimmers out to sea, and unexpected large waves can wash people from rocks.
Maritime Safety
Hurricanes have been the cause of many maritime disasters. And, unfortunately, there is no single rule of thumb that can be used by mariners to ensure safe separation from a hurricane at sea. In order to minimize risk, mariners should allow for a large margin of error in the hurricane track and intensity forecasts. Today, even as our understanding of and ability to forecast hurricanes increases, there is still considerable error in forecasting the movement and intensity of these systems.
Average errors in the hurricane track forecast increase considerably as the forecast projection increases. The following list gives average errors of hurricane forecasts for the 5-year period from 2007 to 2011. Note that errors for storms in northern New England are likely greater than these "average" values due to the acceleration that often occurs south of New England and due to the comparatively fast movement of the storms in New England waters.

48 HOURS | 83 n mi |
72 HOURS | 124 n mi |
96 HOURS | 167 n mi |
120 HOURS | 213 n mi |
For those with boats
It's important to plan ahead. Know exactly what you need to do and how long it will take you to accomplish the necessary tasks. Keep in mind that others will also be taking preparatory actions too, so leave yourself additional time.
If you plan to leave your boat in the water, consider the possible effects of the storm tide and waves. Make sure your anchor is sufficient to hold the boat, and have enough anchor line to account for the storm tide. Secure or remove all non-permanent equipment from the deck. Never try to ride out the storm on your boat. You will endanger your life and possibly the lives of rescuers.
If you are able to put your boat on a trailer, get it out of the water early. If you wait too long, you may be in a long line. If possible, store your boat inside a garage. However, if you leave your boat outside, put it in a sheltered location, and secure it to sturdy objects such as large trees.

Last night I finally made it to one of Jason Reitman's "Live Read" events at LACMA. The series began a few months ago in conjunction with Film Independent and the idea is very simple. Mr. Reitman is taking his favorite scripts and inviting his friends to do live readings in front of an audience at the LACMA Bing theater. The series has taken off like a shot and tickets sell out immediately, both because Mr. Reitman has made clever script choices and because he some very talented and famous friends.
"The Breakfast Club" reading included Jennifer Garner, Patton Oswalt, James Van Der Beek, and Mindy Kaling. "The Apartment" (one of my favorite films, based on the brilliant screenplay by Billy Wilder) was next and the charming leads once played by Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine were read by Steve Carrell and Natalie Portman. The supporting cast included Mindy Kaling again, Ken Jeong, Pierce Brosnan, JK Simmons, Collette Wolfe, Jake Johnson, and Nick Kroll.
You can see why this has become such a hot ticket.
And now on to last night. "The Princess Bride" is such a beloved film and well regarded screenplay (and book, for those of you that haven't read it, you should run out and buy it right now. It's even funnier and darker than the film) that the audience behaved like it was at a rock concert and it was seeing a reunion tour of it's favorite band. It was crazy. I will introduce the cast as it was introduced to us:
Kevin Pollack: Miracle Max
Nick Kroll: Count Rugen
Bill Fagerbaake: Fezzick
Goran Visjnic: Inigo Montoya
Patton Oswalt: Vizzini
Westley: Paul Rudd
Buttercup: Mindy Kaling
And playing the role originated by Fred Savage was . . . FRED SAVAGE! . . . wearing a Chicago Bears jersey. He got a standing ovation. And then surprises continued when Jason Reitman brought in the film's director, Rob Reiner, and announced he would be reading the part of the grandfather. The place went wild. And then for the final twist: Mr. Reitman brought Cary Elwes, the original Westley, on stage and announced he would be reading the part of Count Humperdink. It was inconceivable!
The cast was terrific. Patton Oswald, Nick Kroll and Cary Elwes in particular were hilarious, but then the villains always have the most fun. Patton Oswald also gave added depth and guffaws to a fencing scene by supplying the sound effects via two spoons.
Hearing the screenplay read aloud was a reminder of what an incredible piece of writing it is, not a line wasted. I think this William Goldman has a future (Although, I do have to say that seeing the entire cast lined up on stage you did see what a male dominated cast it was, and having comedienne Mindy Kaling read Buttercup only emphasized how bland the princess' lines were. She literally doesn't have one joke in the whole film.)
The next Live Read is already sold out and Jason Reitman hasn't even announced what it is yet. But I assure you it will be the place to see and be seen.

Windproof warmth for frigid, blowing days. The lightweight, low-bulk Solar Wind Jacket features a Gore WINDSTOPPER® exterior and 60-g PrimaLoft® ECO insulation.
WINDSTOPPER® Fabric provides total windproofness while maintaining maximum breathability to keep you comfortable in a wide range of weather conditions and activities.
WINDSTOPPER fabrics are soft and lightweight to provide insulating warmth without added weight. They allow perspiration to easily escape, which keeps you warm and dry from the inside, even when you're working hard. They're also water resistant, and shed snow and water. Finally, they dry quickly.
The WINDSTOPPER membrane is an ultrathin protective layer that is laminated to a lightweight fabric. The WINDSTOPPER membrane has 1.4 billion micropores in every square inch to let water vapor from perspiration escape virtually unhindered, even when you're working at maximum intensity.
We use PrimaLoft® insulation inside insulated garments for its warmth, compressibility, and soft comfort. While the human body uses energy to stay warm, PrimaLoft insulation uses a patented microfiber structure to help the body retain warmth and conserve energy.
The proprietary ultra-fine fibers of PrimaLoft insulation form a tight collection of air pockets that trap heat from your body and keep the cold out, providing an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. When insulation gets wet, it loses these air pockets and consequently, its insulating properties. PrimaLoft ultra-fine fibers were developed to be water resistant so your insulation stays drier and maintains its insulating properties even when wet.
We promote fair labor practices, safe working conditions and environmental responsibility throughout the Patagonia supply chain.

ROCHESTER — Rochester Main Street has recognized several efforts of Rochester school students who gave back to their community this month. Student Courtney Libby was named the Rochester Rotary Club's "Rising Star" for December at a Dec. 10 luncheon held the Governor's Inn restaurant. Libby said she hopes to become a dietitian and work in the health and wellness field when she gets older. She was team captain for a local fundraiser bike ride. The local Rotary Club meets every Monday at the Governor's Inn for lunch. Those interested in becoming a member should contact Gerry Bisaillion at 332-2989. Spaulding High School's "Interact Club," a junior Rotary Club, also raised $300 through a carwash to support the completion of "Buddy Ball" field at Roger Allen Park. Members say this will enable people of all disabilities to get out on the field and play. The school club meets every week to develop programs that will aid the community. Those interested in joining should contact group adviser Connie Littlefield at Spaulding High School.

Comments On Apr 25, 2014:I have not got a chance to use the tires yet. I will update after I get a chance.
I received the tires 3 days after I ordered them. You have to love RMATV.
The tires were the same sizes as the stock tires. Don't worry about them saying they are the same size, but actually being a different size. The tires are a little more aggressive than I thought they would be, but not to aggressive. I believe they will not effect handling in a negative way. I bought just the tires and installed them on the stock wheels. I did this myself with the help of a portable tire changer. They were surprisingly easy to install compared to other tires I have purchased. Good thick rubber for being a 4 ply. Good quality tire that is made in the USA.
As far as wear goes I will have to get back to you. But its time to go and try to wear them out. Stay tuned for an update. Ride Safe!

Excellent Jeans! I love this pair of Rock Revival's. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star rating is because the pocket flap on the back is a faux pocket. It is not a button pocket, but it is made to look like one. I didn't notice this while in the store. July 21, 2013

Hi there
Test Engineers are typically given the requirement to get 100% of nets probed at electrical test with the thinking that this delivers 100% testability. Unfortunately 100% accessibility is not the same as 100% testability. There are a number of reasons why this is not the case but here is a easy one. Typical boards contain integrated circuit (IC) components and power supplies. These power supplies usually have large polarized capacitors across the power rails to smooth the supply but also small capacitors close to each IC to remove high frequencies that may harm the ICs. The large capacitors may be 100uF whereas the small bypass capacitors are 100nF. Say we have 10 of these small capacitors then these will total 1uF of capacitance along with the large capacitor and we have a total of 101uF which is well within the tolerance of the larger capacitor (typically at least 20%). As it is usual to get probes placed on the power rails these 10 bypass capacitors will be probed but not testable due to the large capacitor in parallel with them. In other words 100% accessible does not equal 100% testable.
In Valor MSS Process Preparation, the Design For Test (DFT) analysis considers this scenario in conjunction with Defects Per Million Opportunities (DPMO) to know if the component can be tested or not. If it can't the DPMO of the part will contribute to the overall DPMO of the board. If it is fully testable then the DPMO will not contribute to the overall DPMO of the board. The using a simple equation, yield can be predicted based on the Defects Per Board. In our analysis it is common to see a theoretical yield of less than 100% which is based on 100% of nets being accessed due to these types of circuit configuration.

EDIBLES: Family Favorite Chocolate-Chocolate Cake
Date: November 9, 2011
by: Molly Schechter | Social Editor
The email raving about the "amazing homemade chocolate cake with homemade chocolate frosting" came from friend and fashion blogger Heather Dunhill, who ate it at a Siesta Key dinner party. She said, "Who does that anymore? YUM! It made me — the girl who could care less about chocolate — drool," and she asked if it might it make a good Guest Food Editor column.
It took all of a nanosecond to fire back a "yes" and make arrangements to meet the baker. The cake was made by Katie Hayes from a recipe that is a family treasure. Hayes' late, great aunt, Betty, gave it to her mom, Anno Swain, who passed it on to Hayes and her sister, Susan Erhart (president of the SPARCC Auxiliary). It has been in the family at least 30 years.
The cake is so "chocolatey" because it has so many kinds of chocolate: the Duncan Hines Deep Fudge cake mix, plus chocolate pudding, plus chocolate chips and the cocoa in the frosting. Hayes says you can use another brand of cake mix if you can't find the Duncan Hines. The recipe is not a secret by any means but mistakes do occur in transmission. One happened when Sherry Luria, then Swain's son's fiancée, asked for another family treasure — carrot cake. Swain inadvertently left out the baking soda. The cake, of course, came out flat as a pancake. Fifteen years later, the family still jokes that Swain left it out on purpose so Luria's cake wouldn't be as good as the one that mom makes.
There are minor variations in how the ladies make the chocolate cake. Swain and Hayes use a mixer and spray the pan with Pam. Erhart mixes it by hand and butters and flours the pan. Hayes' sister-in-law uses a yellow cake mix and vanilla pudding with the same frosting. The cake is reported to be great with just powdered sugar on top, but this family can never do without frosting. The secrets to making it successfully are to soften the butter and add the dry and liquid ingredients alternately. The result is wildly popular.
"Bundt cake is always better," Hayes says. "There's more frosting per piece."
Chocolate-Chocolate Cake
Start to finish: 2 hours, plus frosting time
Servings: 12
1 package Duncan Hines Deep Fudge cake mix
1 package instant chocolate pudding and pie filling (regular size)
4 eggs
1 pint sour cream
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup canola oil
1 12-ounce package chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 10-inch Teflon bundt pan by spraying with Pam or buttering carefully, then dusting with flour.
Mix all ingredients together and pour into a prepared bundt pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 minutes. Let cool about an hour before removing from pan. You can slide a knife gently around the edges, but mostly you just need to place a plate over the top of the pan, then flip it upside-down and gently shake the pan to loosen the cake. Cool completely before frosting.
Chocolate Frosting
1 stick (1/4 pound) unsalted butter
2/3 cup Hershey's cocoa
1 box confectioner's sugar
1/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
Combine sugar and cocoa in a bowl. Soften the butter in a separate bowl. Then alternately add the sugar/cocoa mixture and the milk and vanilla to the butter until creamy consistency. Frost cake when completely cool. Enjoy!

HORTENSE H. YOUNG TO RUN FOR BOARD GIVEN PLEDGE OF ACTIVE SUPPORT BY MANY LEADING ORGANIZATIONS Mrs. Hortense H. Young, in a statement to friends who have solicited her candidacy for the Board of Education in the November election, said this week that she will be persuaded by the interests of those whose names appear on petitions given her to be a candidate for election to the school Board this fall. Mrs. Young, whose continued and sustained interest in civic affairs in Louisville has made her one whose services were "conscripted" for this important post, was presented a petition containing approximately 1500 names at a meeting of the Executive Board of the NAACP last April. Several organizations have expressed willingness to actively support her candidacy and one, the Kentucky Bureau on Negro Affairs has gone on record as the first to give its active support and to work earnestly in the community for her election at this time. There are three vacancies on the Board of Education to be filled in the November election. No Negro has ever been elected to the Board. Mrs. Young came within 274 votes of being elected in the 1946 School Board Elections. Mrs. Young is a former president of the Central High School PTA, a member of numerous organizations including the National and Louisville Urban League, National Conference of Christians and Jews, NAACP, League of Women Voters, and the Jefferson County Sunday School Association. DEFENDER EDITOR SUED FOR DIVORCE Charging that her husband has been guilty of cruel and inhuman treatment," Mrs. Mary Martin, wife of Fletcher P. Martin, city editor of the Louisville Defender, filed a petition of divorce against the local newsman last week. (Martin was a war correspondent for the Defender during World War II, and accompanied for his paper President Truman on his westward trip during the 1948 presidential campaign. He was the first Negro to receive a Nieman fellowship for a year's study at Harvard University). The petition filed in the Jeffersonville Circuit Court, June 28, stated the couple was married August, 1945, and "lived together until June 24th, 1950." They have two children, Peter, three, and Patricia one and half years old. Mrs. Martin in the brief, declared her husband "not the fit and proper person to have care and custody of the children." The petition stated the couple own property at Watson, Route 2, just a few miles out of Jeffersonville, Ind., valued at $6,000. Mrs. Martin asked support of herself and the children and half the sum of the total property value as settlement. NOTED EDUCATORS JOIN FACULTY AT KSC The Kentucky State College faculty boast the addition of three noted educational leaders who are teaching at the Frankfort Institution during the Summer Session. Doctor G. D. Wilson, a member of the Louisville Municipal College faculty and Mr. Joseph Carpenter of the St. Louis, Missouri, public school system are instructing in the Department of Education; and Mr. Joseph Sothern, prominent Orangeburg, South Carolina businessman and graduate of the University of Chicago, has joined the staff of the Department of Business Administration. Both Mr. Carpenter and Mr. Sothern are holders of the Masters Degree. RICHMOND ESQUIRE CLUB ELECTS OFFICERS The Esquire Club, Richmond, Kentucky, elected the following officers, June 26: Ira Thomas, president; George Turner, vice-president; McGustor Estelle, secretary; Ethelbert White, treasurer Harold Fox, asst. treasurer; Harry Hill, sgt.-at-arms. The Esquire Club has been highly praised for its charitable work in the community and for its promotion of interracial sports events. They recently promoted a basketball game between the white Eastern State Teachers' College and Kentucky State College. The game was played at Richmond. Their elaborate club house is located on Irvine St. and is operated on a strictly private club basis.

The Curb, Gutter, and Sidewalk Reconstruction project improves damaged and/or deteriorated concrete infrastructure for the safety of the general public. The reconstruction locations are determined from a list compiled by the Public Works Department Engineering and Maintenance Services Divisions. The locations with the highest rating will be the highest priority for reconstruction based on available funding. Curb, Gutter, & Sidewalk Reconstruction Criteria:
This category includes projects that don't fall under the other categories on this website. The types of projects include those located at various City facilities such as City Hall, Police, Fire, Airport, Transportation Center. Also included are bike paths.
The City usually contracts out several parks projects in each fiscal year. The types of projects include trail improvements, pool improvements, building renovations, and other general park development.
The Sewer Replacement and Sewer Lining programs are part of the City's continuing efforts to upgrade, repair, and rehabilitate deficient and/or deteriorated sewer pipe within the City's Sanitary sewer system. The Public Works Department Engineering and Maintenance Services Division compiles a list of locations in need of upgrade or repair. Sewer Replacement Criteria:
As part of our ongoing efforts to improve our streets, the City has utilized a Pavement Management Program (PMP) to manage its 66 center miles of Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH) network since year 2000 and 224 center miles of local streets since 2011. The MPAH roads are updated every two years and locals every six years per Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) guidelines. The City usually contracts out one to two arterial street rehabilitation projects in each fiscal year and two to three phases of the residential street projects. Annual Street Rehabilitation Projects Selection Criteria:
Residential street reconstruction or rehabilitation is currently done in conjunction with sewer and water replacement projects. Streets that have been scheduled for sewer and/or water replacement will also be evaluated for street reconstruction or rehabilitation. See the Sewer or Water Section for a list of current projects in design and construction.
The Storm Drain program is part of the continuing infrastructure improvement effort to reduce flooding in roads and protect private properties. The locations are determined from the City's Master Plan of Drainage Report that identifies existing deficient storm drains and new locations where storm drains are needed. The locations are also determined from reported drainage problems and field investigations. Storm Drain Criteria:
The Traffic Signal Synchronization Program is a multi-jurisdictional endeavor to maintain traffic signal synchronization, improve traffic flow, and reduce congestion on arterial corridors countywide. Traffic Signal Synchronization Criteria:
The Water Main Replacement program is part of our continuing efforts to repair deteriorated infrastructure and to provide a safe and reliable source of water for our citizens. The City replaces 1.5 miles of pipeline each fiscal year. The locations are determined from a list that is compiled by the Public Works Department Engineering and Maintenance Services Divisions. Besides the water main replacement program, the City rehabilitates other infrastructure such as reservoirs and pump stations on an as needed basis. Water Main Replacement Criteria:

It was kind of a cool, overcast day. I loved the clouds hovering over the mountains. At the end of September we were still having 90 degree weather - which I actually didn't mind. Suddenly a week of cool, rainy weather blew in and it suddenly felt like real fall. (Or Autumn if you live in the rest of the English speaking world. When I lived in England I remember being teased for saying "Fall" - so now I'm always a little conscious of that fact.) Whatever you like to call it, it's my favorite time of year.

An electrical injury is damage to the skin or internal organs when a person comes into direct contact with an electrical current.
Electrical shock
The human body conducts electricity very well. That means, electricity passes very easily throughout the body. Direct contact with electrical current can be deadly. While some electrical burns look minor, there still may be serious internal damage, especially to the heart, muscles, or brain.
Electric current can cause injury in three ways:
Symptoms depend on many things, including:
Symptoms may include:
1. If you can do so safely, turn off the electrical current. Unplug the cord, remove the fuse from the fuse box, or turn off the circuit breakers. Simply turning off an appliance may NOT stop the flow of electricity. Do NOT attempt to rescue a person near active high-voltage lines.
2. Call your local emergency number, such as 911.
3. If the current can't be turned off, use a non-conducting object, such as a broom, chair, rug, or rubber doormat to push the person away from the source of the current. Do not use a wet or metal object. If possible, stand on something dry and that doesn't conduct electricity, such as a rubber mat or folded newspapers.
4. Once the person is away from the source of electricity, check the person's airway, breathing, and pulse. If either has stopped or seems dangerously slow or shallow, start first aid.
5. If the person has a burn, remove any clothing that comes off easily, and rinse the burned area in cool running water until the pain subsides. Give first aid for burns.
6. If the person is faint, pale, or shows other signs of shock , lay him or her down, with the head slightly lower than the trunk of the body and the legs elevated, and cover him or her with a warm blanket or a coat.
7. Stay with the person until medical help arrives.
8. Electrical injury is frequently associated with explosions or falls that can cause additional severe injuries. You may not be able to notice all of them. Do not move the person's head or neck if the spine may be injured.
Stay at least 20 feet away from a person who is being electrocuted by high-voltage electrical current (such as power lines) until the power is turned off.
Call your local emergency number, such as 911 if a person has received an electrical burn.
