The play must be original and long enough for a full evening and the stu- dents muat have the consent of the fac- ulty to compete. The contest doses June 1st BEFORE AND AFTER THE FORMING OF THE CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION History Outlined to C. A. Members How the Christian Association devel- oped from two small weekly meetings to its present active organization, was the subject of the meeting Saturday night, when Dr. Barton, Miss Applebee, E. Deems, '10, H. Smith, '10, and L. Hough- teling, '11, spoke at the C. A. Birthday Celebration. Dr. Barton, calling himself "the oldest inhabitant," began with an account of the religious life in College before any re- ligious organization existed, telling of a Friends' meeting every Wednesday even- ing led by Dr. Rhoads, the first president of the College, and of meetings held on Sunday evenings in the Gymnasium, at which was discussed every subject of the slightest interest except religion. He then told how, in 1895, after the death of Dr. Rhoads, a group of students formed a Christian Union, although some thought it a mistake to organize anything so per- sonal as religion. The Union, said Dr. Barton, soon showed its Importance in taking charge of the philanthropic work and the Bible classes and grew In den- niteness of expression until 1903, when some of the members formed within the Union a "League for the Service of Christ", composed of those who belonged to Evangelical churches and who felt that they needed the stimulus of something more decided than the simple broad Union basis. Will You, Won't You, Join the League? Miss Deems, taking up the history from 1903, told of the introduction of the Freshmen to the two associations. The choice between the two she described as hard for her as she was in sympathy with the work of both the Union and the League, but she soon found that It was impossible to work for both and resigned from the Union. She then outlined the situation when she was In College; the Union had charge of the classes for the maids and lab boys, Miss Tsuda, Bible and Mission Study classes and the Sun- day evening meeting in the gymnasium; the League supported Mr. Tonomura, ar- ranged for the Silver Bay delegation, had a Student Volunteer Band, and Vespers on Sunday; both had classes In town, and finally most of the philanthropic work was done by a Joint committee. Though some of the work duplicated, she explained, the feeling was so strained that the College was shocked when 1910 dared to allude to the antagonism in their Freshman Show, "Alice in Bryn Mawr", In the duet between the Lion and the Unicorn. "Will you, won't you; wiU you, won't you; will you, won't you. Join the League�the Union"? The Associations Join The Joining of the two Associations In 1910 was described by Miss Smith, who was on the committee that united them. "It all began with Miss Applebee", she said. "She had the hope of welding the two and asked the boards to meet with her in her office. It was a strange meet- ing, the two boards lined up on opposite sides of the room and -glared at each other. Their glares soon turned to looks I of watchful interest, however, as the plan was explained". After weeks of work 1 with President Thomas. Dr. Barton and Dr. Rosa, Miss Smith said these plans were worked out and a basis for an Asso- (CwUiim�' on Pass S) HOUSMAN TO SPEAK ON THE DRAMA Author of Play Given by Sophomores Mr. Laurence Housman, who will speak next Saturday, March 18th, in Taylor, on "The Moral and Immoral Influences of Modern Drama", Is best known to Bryn Mawr students as the author of the "Chi- nese Lantern", the play given by the Sophomores last fall. Mr. Housman, whose brother is A. E. Housman, the author of "The Shropshire Lad", Is well known in England as an Il- lustrator in the Pre-Raphaelite manner and as the author of plays, novels and poems. "The Chinese Lantern", and "Prunella", which he wrote with Gran- ville Barker, are among the most popular of his works. His Nativity play, "Bethle- hem", is an adaptation from the old time Miracle plays. When it was to be per- formed in London in 1902, it was refused a theatre license but was finally played in a hall, where It drew large crowds. He is also Interested in folk lore and has written a book of fairy tales, called "Weird Tales from the North Sea". In an article, "Petticoat Government", in the Contemporary Review for November, 1913, Mr. Housman expresses his sympa- thy with the cause of suffrage. CHAPERON RULES BROADENED RESULTS OF SELF GOV MEETING To the tune of "Just one more, only just one more", a quorum was finally ob- tained at the Self-Government meeting. Monday night, and several of the chap- eron rules were then placed on a broader basis. It was decided that with a brother of eighteen years or over, when no other man is present, a student may go to a dance, to dine, or to places of entertainment uncbaperoned. It was also decided that a student visiting in a house where there is not more than one other Bryn Mawr student shall be under the chaperon rules of her hostess even If they should con- flict with the chaperon rules of Self-Gov- ernment. To visit a person, however, with the direct intention of breaking Self- Government was felt to be definitely against the spirit of the association. An amendment, to the effect that on Lantern night men may come Into the studies un- til ten o'clock was also passed. In order to have Sophomore classes represented on the Advisory Board it was voted that the Treasurer of the Associa- tion be also a member of the Board, since the Treasurer Is always a Sophomore. SO PER CENT PASS THIRD FRENCH ORAL Out of the fifteen Seniors who took the third French oral last Saturday twelve passed and three failed; that Is, 80 per cent passed and 20 per cent failed. There were no merits. Of the three who failed, one has already passed German and the other two, may pass it on Saturday. If they do, no one In the class will hsve to take both of the fourth orals. MASEFIELD PRIZE PERMANENT Faculty Committee to 81ft Material The prizes which Mr. Masefield has of- fered for the best play or short story and for the best poem are to be permanent and will be awarded every year. Mr. Masefield has been called back to France earlier than he expected and has been obliged to cut short all sorts of engage- ments In this country. For this reason he has not yet set a date for his second visit to Bryn Mawr, but It will undoubt- edly be some time this month. The faculty committee chosen to select the best of the contestants' material for Mr. Masefield to Judge is: Professor G. G. King, chairman; Professor Rhys Car- penter, and Dr. Samuel Chew. The con- test closed on Friday, March 10th. CLOSE COMPETITION FOR VARSITY GOAL AND FULLBACK Prepare for Alumnae Water Polo Game Three Varsity water-polo practices were held last week in anticipation of the Aliuniiif game which will probably take place next Saturday Hfternoon. These first practices were not satisfactory as the passing was not good and there was too much splashing. The team has not been chosen. There is close competition for goal and fullback and the forward line is weak and needs working up. Two more practices will be held before the game. NATIONALITY NOT BASIS OF RECONSTRUCTION "After the War", by Mr. S. K. Ratcliffe HUMORI8T8 GET BUSY The Palace Players Film Corporation of New York will pay for synopses of comic situations from which motion pic- tures may be made. The synopses need not be in the form of scenarios and the market for them is open permanently. 'However Europe will be settled after the war, it will not be settled on lines of nationality", said Mr. Samuel K. Ratcliffe in a lecture entitled "After the War: Set- tlement and Reconstruction", Monday aft- ernoon In Taylor. Mr. Ratcliffe Is Secre- tary of the Sociological Society In Eng- land, Is editor of the Sociological Review of the "Echo", and for three years was editor of "The Statesman" In Calcutta; he Is also lecturer under the London Uni- versity Extension Board. In summing up the sentiments with which England entered the war, Mr. Rat- cliffe said "We went into the war with the determination to make the most out of It. This Is a war for the liberation of peoples, for freedom and democracy, and for the overthrow of the military domina- tion of Europe. "Europe- will not be settled along the lines of na ionality", be said, "because nationality is too lll-deflned. The mod- ern tendency Is toward the formation of larger aggregations of peoples for polit- ical purposes. Nationality is funda- mental; nearly every war has been due to the perversion of nationality. We must, therefore, find a method for the fullest possible expression of national units and, at the aame time, for political expansion". It Is the reforms, such as government ownership of railroads and control of In- ' dustry. and allowing women to supplant men Industrially, which the government : has been forced to work under special pressure of war. which will have to be taken Into account when the time for re- construction comes

View Other Models:
Ext. Color:
THE VICTORY MACHINEUnbeatable power-to-weight ratio, low maintenance costs and high-performance make the 250 XC an unrivaled machine for extremely tough cross-country rides. The state-of-the-art engine is activated effortlessly with an electric starter and has been regarded for years as the most successful two-stroke power unit on the market. Best-in-class, enduro-specific performance, a redesigned reed valve housing, the perfectly designed six-speed transmission and the further refined DDS clutch send the engine to the very top of its class.
The engine has a redesigned reed valve housing featuring Boyesen high-performance reeds. Thanks to the innovations, performance has been optimized and responsiveness improved. Ignition curve and cylinder head have been optimized and the carburetor setting adjusted. The new developments make the 250 XC even more rideable.
A new cylinder head with optimized combustion chamber makes its debut in MY 2014, delivering more effective combustion and above all better responsiveness in the partial load range. This results in better power development and optimized rideability
For 2014, all XC models are fitted with a newly developed 48mm 4CS Closed Cartridge fork featuring the patented 4-Chamber-System. The sophisticated design provides very constant and sensitive damping characteristics and an adjustable end progression. The new hand click adjuster system is now accessible on top of the fork, rebound on the right hand side, compression on the left. The fork is fitted with improved seal rings made by SKF and high performance fork oil (SAE 4). Compared to the predecessor, the new 4CS fork is lighter, easier to maintain and has been completely valved to match the shock for XC racing.
The cast aluminum swingarm has been developed with state-of-the-art calculation and simulation software and constructed, in terms of design and wall thickness, for minimum weight with optimum stiffness and precisely defined flexibility. For the 2014 model year, our engineers have revised the chainguide for the benefit of higher functional reliability, while simultaneously reducing the weight.
The state-of-the-art frame design made of lightweight, high-strength chromoly steel sections combines maximum longitudinal stiffness with optimum torsional rigidity. It guarantees easy handling and precise cornering, but also outstanding stability.
The lower triple clamp has been modified for optimum attachment of the new front fender. Thanks to its new contour and attachment with two bolts from the front and two from below, the new fender boasts significantly higher stability.
In shaping the bodywork, the KTM designers' ergonomic and design focus was to achieve complete harmony between rider and bike, down to the finest details. The front fender is a prime example of a molded polymer component gaining maximum stability through a well thought-out structure and mounting. XC models come with hand guards and side stand.
High-Tech Brembo brakes have always been standard equipment on KTM offroad bikes. Combined with the lightweight Wave discs, they are the ultimate solution in braking technology. The SX/XC models gain a newly developed master cylinder with a new reservoir , a smaller piston diameter and optimized lever kinematics. Combined with new brake pads, this makes for another perceptible improvement of front brake performance and action.

Scully Beaver Lynch is an American Paris-based artist/designer and art director behind LUZZ LUZZ, a French Avant-garde project of art and design works for the public. With interests in architecture, modern culture, and contemporary society, Lynch works in the designing of highly engineered clothing and furniture, and embraces in performance arts. Based on his work in the interpretation of design, identity, and language alongside the question of sustainability in an evolving global world, Lynch writes his vision on cultural diversity creating the logo: I-Diverse.
The I-Diverse logo
As a collective body of diverse cultures, mindsets, and visionaries, I-Diverse is a forward-thinking manifest on cultural diversity that encompasses art, forms, and ways of thinking as vital elements in the enrichment of our diverse world.
The "I" is a universal symbol that reflects the individual as a unique force, and "Diverse" represents a collective body of individuals, mindsets, cultures, languages, and traditions uniting and shaping our global world.
The subtle lines, colours, and blending effects represent how diversity is a common and natural component of humanity and to the biosphere as of whole. We can also observe how the linear components and separations become 'invisible' over the discourse of the combined colours.
One of the main bases behind the logo is to reflect differences across humanity and the human being coming from the different cultural backgrounds and experiences; and expresses how such differences can be expressed and coupled together in many different ways to enhance our existing ideas, perspectives, and ways of life.
Despite our differences in culture, race, religion, or values, we as a people are capable of celebrating cultural diversity in the new millennium as a form of enhancement and progress of cultural systems, individuals, institutions, and nations. While assumptions, biases, and misconceptions on diversity can sometimes cloud our visions in the progress of humanity, I-Diverse is an affirmation of the individual humanity of all kind.
I-Diverse reflects diversity as a source of individual and collective enrichment and serves as a platform of reflection and thought in re-defining a universal approach to cultural diversity of modern times.
Included Material:
'I-Diverse' AD Campaign video (1min./49 sec.)
Intellectual Property: In the event I-Diverse is selected as the overall winning logo, LUZZ LUZZ, SL and it's owner representative certifies that UNESCO acquires exclusive ownership rights including those rights of the adaptation of the logo.

Spotlight: From 'Viagra Falls' to Betty White, Lou Cut-ells it to the chase
Date: January 9, 2013
by: Mallory Gnaegy | A&E Editor
Most people recognize Lou Cutell because of his many memorable cameos in television and movies: from "Mary Tyler Moore" and "The Golden Girls," to "Seinfeld" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm."
His just wrapped up filming the second season of "Betty White's Off Their Rockers," a prank show where mischievous seniors pull pranks on unsuspecting youngsters.
But what brought Cutell to Sarasota in late December was The Golden Apple Dinner Theatre's re-opening for the production of the comedy, "Viagra Falls." Cutell is the play's co-writer and also plays the role of Charley. Cutell and longtime director of the Golden Apple, Robert Turoff, first met in the '50s at Barn Theatre, in Augusta, Mich., where Turrell was directing and Cutell was one of his actors.
This is his first visit to Sarasota, but he is enjoying the white sands of Siesta Key Beach and calls Sarasota, "a great little arts colony." He would love to come back in the future for a second round. He even has one of his other plays in mind.
Talk to me about writing "Viagra Falls," and how you came to be the co-writer.
One guy, Joao Machado, and his friend saw me and said, "We have a play for you," and I said, "Really?" The next day they brought it over… I thought, it wasn't really a play, but I love the ending. I thought the ending was really special. So I gave it to my friend, Don Crichton (the future play's original director). Don said, "Louie, there's no play here!"
But there was something about it, so I put it aside for three weeks … all of a sudden it was like magic. The ideas kept flowing … I continued on and on and three years later we had a reading at my home and I invited all my friends. The applause kept going on and on, and they said "Louie, what a great play!" Well, I couldn't believe it.
The character Charley, whom you play, decides to celebrate his birthday with his friend Moe by taking a Viagra and ordering a call girl. Did you create the character Charley based on personal experience?
Well, that's an interesting question. Thank God, I don't have any problems with my prostate.
The urologist who lives next door to me told me that he has analyzed people who have prostate cancer and has a (un-proven) theory that people that (have it) have given up sex or their libido is gone. So, there's the idea (in the play) that if you don't use that thing, everything in life stops up. Like the line when Charley says, "Come on, Moe, I know there's still a wolf in you."
That conversation inspired parts of the plot.
Well, if you haven't had a similar birthday celebration to Charley's, what was the most memorable birthday you ever celebrated?
(In 2007, my cousin Chris) threw me a surprise party and invited all my friends and relatives. That was the only time (someone has ever done that for me), and I thought it was amazing.
What do you hope people take from your play when they see it?
A joy of life. "Have fun," as I say in the play. My theme is about doing something; be out there. Sometimes life will throw you a curve ball, but you just gotta have fun and live one day at a time. Enjoy life as long as you have your health. You just gotta keep thinking positively about life …
I think a lot of people give up really early in life and miss the boat. I'm having as much fun now as ever, and I think the play has a couple of tears, but it's mostly laughter — that's life.
Speaking of laughter, tell me about your work on "Betty White's Off Their Rockers."
I basically play a little older man with little frameless glasses, a kindly man counterpart of Betty White …
What I've learned from that show is that people are wonderful. People are willing to help out old people; they are supportive. Humanity is great!
What's it like working with Betty White?
The best. She's an amazing lady, she really and truly is. What you see on screen is so wonderful, but there's even more to her in person. I've known her since the "Mary Tyler Moore Show"… and then "Golden Girls." She even comes to my house during dinner. People just love her!

Flomerics Technologists' Paper Selected as Best of 2005 by IEEE Publication
May 2006
A paper written by two Flomerics executives, Márta Rencz and András Poppe, as well as Ern&337; Kollar, Sándor Ress, and Vladimir Székely of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BUTE), has been selected as the best of 2005 by the editors of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. (IEEE) Transactions on Components and Packaging Technologies. The paper, entitled "Increasing the Accuracy of Structure Function Based Thermal Material Parameter Measurements" was selected from among nearly 100 manuscripts published in the past year's volume of the Transactions. The paper appeared in the March 2005 issue (volume 28, issue 1, page 51-57). The Award will be presented on June 1, 2006 at the 56th Electronic Components and Technology Conference in San Diego, California.
The paper explains that structure functions provide a one dimensional representation of the heat flow path of thermal systems and can be obtained by fast and simple thermal transient measurements. The usual way of generating structure functions considers only one heat path. Heat is switched on a point in the structure and the temperature of the point is recorded as a function of time until a steady state is reached. The structure functions are determined by direct mathematical transformations from the measured transient curves. There is always a certain error in these measurements due to parasitic heat flow moving in other directions than the one dimension that is being measured. Parasitic effects can consist of natural convection, radiation losses, and conduction through the fixture itself.
The new method developed by the Flomerics and BUTE researchers improves measurement results by accounting for parasitic heat flow. This method measures the parasitic heat flow path in addition to the thermal transients and then subtracts the thermal impedance of the parasitic branches during the phase of generating the structure functions. The paper presented an application example involving measuring the effective thermal conductivity of a patterned printed circuit board. The paper also included the results of a set of verification experiments in a vacuum chamber that considered the effects of parasitic heat flow paths with single parallel thermal resistances. The authors are currently working on considering parallel heat flow paths with their structure functions.
Rencz and Poppe joined Flomerics when Flomerics purchased MicReD - a Hungarian based company formed in 1997 as a spin-off from BUTE. Rencz is now Chief Executive Officer and Poppe is the Chief Marketing Officer of the MicReD subsidiary of Flomerics. MicReD's main product is the "T3Ster" (pronounced "Trister"), which provides fast, repeatable and accurate thermal characterization of IC devices, including stacked-die and system-in-package devices. The T3Ster provides nondestructive dynamic thermal characterization of packages semiconductor devices such as diodes, BJTs, J-FETs, MOSFETs, thyristors, power LEDs, MCMs and other electronic and MEMS components.

Stand-up Revolution
is a fairly loose comedy show hosted by comedian Gabriel Iglesias, who is some
kind of genius with voices. Seriously, you�ll hear it throughout the disc (and
especially in the animated sequences). Ozomatli is the house band for
the show, which is totally cool. Each episode features two stand-up comedians
as well as an introduction and short stand-up bit by Gabriel Iglesias. The
episodes vary in quality, depending primarily on the strength of each episode�s
individual comedians (the best episodes being the first and fourth). This DVD
includes all six episodes, plus some bonus material.
The first episode
features Trevor Noah and Dov Davidoff. Trevor Noah compares comedy to sex: �
the comedian, playing the role of the man. You, the audience, playing the role
of the woman. Because it�s my job to satisfy you. And you just have to sit
.� But it�s his material on being of mixed races that is most interesting.
After Gabriel gives
Dov Davidoff an amazing introduction, Dov tells the audience to lower its
expectations. But he�s seriously funny, particularly his bit about people
having too many babies. When he gets rolling, he�s perfect. I need to keep an
eye out for this guy.
The first episode
also features an Ozomatli video and an hilarious anecdote from Gabriel about
playing a practical joke on Trevor in Texas.
The fourth episode
features comedians Dustin Ybarra and Thai Rivera. Dustin is incredibly funny,
with his comedy focusing on being poor. He says, �
Why do coupons even expire
anyway? That�s like the biggest F you to poor people ever, right? It�s like now
I gotta be poor on time? Thank you so much
.� It�s great, and his energy is
I like it when
comedians still risk being offensive, which sadly seems more and more rare.
Thai Rivera talks about the difference between being gay and being black: �
I as
a gay man will have people talk to me, hang out with me, in some cases want to
be my friend, and then they find out I�m gay and suddenly they want nothing to
do with me. Where with black people you automatically know you don�t like
." And on immigration he says, "
And some days I�m ready to call immigration
just to free up a dryer at the Laundromat
The sixth episode is
also really good. In addition to two comedians, there are three animated
sequences. Those sequences take Gabriel Iglesias� old stand-up bits and turn
them into cartoon form. My favorite is the second one, with a great animated
bit of terrified doughnuts.
The two comedians in
the sixth episode are Ian Bagg and Pablo Francisco.
Ian Bagg is probably my favorite comedian of
the entire season. He jokes about how he was molested as a kid. �
It�s a true
story. I actually got money from the church. I got $8,677. Worth it! Jesus
totally bought me my first car, and I got a Trans Am
.� I also love how he
interacts with the crowd. He is a seriously good comedian, and definitely has
his own thing going on. The Hitler pussy bit totally cracked me up.
Pablo Francisco, on the other hand, should be
funnier than he is. But he just can�t let go of the announcer voice, and it�s a
bit much.
By the way, while it�s
great that Ozomatli is the house band, by the third episode I was completely
sick of the theme song. (It�s played at the beginning, plus in and out of
nearly every break.) But don�t hold that against them. They�re a good band.
DVD Bonus Features
This DVD has several
bonus features, including outtakes and a behind-the-scenes look at the making
of the Ozomatli music video (which was shot at the Roxy). The best bonus
material is the series of animated �Hey It�s Fluffy!� shorts. There are four
shorts: �Fluffy And The Demon,� �Indecent Proposal,� �Dino Is Gay� and �Taco
Truck.� My personal favorite is �Taco Truck,� because of the end.

quote:we have a military that can protect us from invasion.
quote: I think this place would turn back into the shithole it used to be.
quote:I can't just sit there and wait 5-10 minutes for police to show up
quote:Right now everyone is safe.
quote:in the Kelly/Bloomberg era (2002 and after) over half the officers -- 51 percent -- had observed the intentional misclassification of serious crimes as petty offenses and other unethical practices, typically multiple times. Officers also reported that since 2002 they had experienced unusually strong pressures from supervisors to downgrade crimes and keep crime numbers low. The consequences of downgrading or not reporting crimes can be severe. For example, in 2010 recently retired Detective Harold Hernandez revealed to Village Voice reporter Graham Rayman that a series of sexual assault-robberies in Washington Heights had been downgraded from serious felonies to misdemeanors. As a result, the NYPD missed the crime pattern and allowed a sexual predator to remain at large for at least two months and to commit six more rapes.
quote:There is now a clear message emanating from the top commanders at police headquarters: make many stop and frisks, write many summonses, make many arrests for petty offenses, and downgrade serious crimes. In other words, the NYPD seeks to keep the serious crime numbers low while showing lots of officer activity. The NYPD's 50,000 marijuana arrests, 600,000 summonses, and nearly 700,000 stop and frisks do little or nothing to make the city safer.
quote:So then that brings into question "what do we really need and what can we afford?"
quote:We need the 50 million or so taxpayers, consumer spenders, soldiers, policeman, teachers, etc., etc., that we erased while still in their mother's wombs.
quote:we should be glad we erased 50 million in the womb... most of those would be the underclass we support indirectly
quote:If someone breaks into my house, seconds matter. I can't just sit there and wait 5-10 minutes for police to show up
quote:Assumptions regarding the future of the country
quote:Huxleys Brave New World... that is the future. (It's pretty much the now).
quote:So as a nation we've been discussing gun control in a pretty heated debate the last few weeks

This is a great telescope and accessory kit for kids interested in astronomy and space. The Orion Observer 60mm AZ refractor telescope is a wonderful starter telescope well-equipped for visual adventures under starry skies. The Observer 60mm is a full-fledged refractor telescope complete with everything you need to start enjoying the night sky like never before. The extra goodies included with the Observer 60mm Altazimuth Refractor & Starter Kit are ideal for beginning backyard astronomers. This value-packed telescope and accessory kit will make a great gift for any child interested in exploring starry skies!
A classic refractor telescope with precision glass optics and great portability, the Orion Observer 60 is a complete backyard telescope package that includes the refractor optical tube, a host of accessories, and an adjustable aluminum tripod. It is especially popular with junior astronomy enthusiasts, thanks to its simple operation and traditional appearance. The Observer 60 Altazimuth refractor telescope weighs just 5.8 lbs. total when assembled, including the mount and tripod, making it very easy for anyone in the family to transport from the house to the backyard for a night full of stargazing adventure.
The Orion Observer 60 Refractor Telescope offers higher quality and more reliable performance than any telescope you'd find in a department store. Featuring an aluminum telescope optical tube and all-glass optics, including a fully antireflection-coated 60mm achromatic objective lens, the Observer 60 yields crisp, bright images of the night sky. The altazimuth mount provides smooth motion in both altitude (up/down) and azimuth (left/right) axes of motion, and the sturdy yet lightweight aluminum tripod is adjustable for crowd-pleasing performance and comfort. There's even a handy accessory tray included that attaches to the tripod so you have a convenient spot to place your eyepieces and other astronomy accessories.
Outfitted with a great set of accessories, the Observer 60mm Altazimuth Refractor & Starter Kit comes with everything you need to enjoy great views of the night sky right out of the box. Let's take a closer look at all the great astronomy accessories that you'll get with this awesome beginner telescope:
Each included eyepiece has a 1.25" barrel, which are better and more versatile than smaller .965" barrels you might find with department store telescopes. The included telescope eyepieces will provide two different magnification options right out of the box. You'll enjoy wide-field 28x views with the 25mm eyepiece, and then you can boost the power all the way up to 70x by using the 10mm telescope eyepiece.
Following a simple alignment procedure that parents can help with, you can use the EZ Finder II sight to accurately aim the Observer 60mm telescope at objects in the sky like the Moon and bright planets. Once aligned with the telescope, just turn on the EZ Finder II and peer through the sight's small circular viewing window so you see the red dot, and move the telescope until the red dot is on the object you want to see. Look in the telescope, and it's there!
A diagonal bends the light path of a telescope so you can view the sky comfortably. Without a diagonal, you'd have to look straight-through the telescope, which can be tricky and downright uncomfortable when looking at certain areas of the sky. Bending the light collected by the Observer 60mm telescope at a 90� angle lets you look down into the eyepiece so you can relax and enjoy the view.
The versatile Observer 60 refractor's 1.25" rack and pinion focuser adjusts smoothly and can also accept a 1.25" correct-image diagonal (sold separately) if you wish to use the telescope for daytime terrestrial viewing of wildlife, landscapes, and more.
This fun book is loaded with beautiful pictures and astounding educational facts about astronomy. The whole family will enjoy browsing pictures of objects in space and reading about interesting planets, stars, and more. This great introduction book to the hobby of astronomy is the perfect way to keep the kids interested during cloudy nights when the Moon and stars aren't visible.
With locations and names of over 260 features on the Moon such as craters, mountains, valleys, "seas" and more, the Orion MoonMap 260 included with the Starter Kit is a great tool for beginning astronomers. This detailed map will even show you where various spacecraft have landed on the Moon's surface! The whole family will enjoy looking at the Moon with the Observer 60mm telescope, then discovering the names of the craters and other features you've seen in the telescope.
This circular star map lets you dial-in the month and day you're observing the sky, so you can see exactly which constellations and stars will be visible if skies are clear. Using the Orion Star Target is a great way for starters to plan their first stargazing sessions with the Observer 60mm refractor, since you'll know just where to point the telescope!
Budding backyard astronomers and families starting out in the hobby of stargazing can learn a ton of useful information with the FREE Special Edition Starry Night software that comes with the telescope. You can use the software to see what stars, constellations, planets, and other cosmic objects will be visible on any day and at any time. This makes it fun and easy to plan family stargazing sessions since you'll know ahead of time which objects will be visible. Requires PC running Windows XP, Vista, 7 or 8. Requires Macintosh running OS X 10.4 or higher.
You'll be pleasantly surprised at the sharp celestial sights you can see with an Orion Observer 60 Altazimuth refractor telescope. For starters, Saturn and its rings, Jupiter and its dancing moons, and the changing phases of Venus all display nicely in the Observer 60. Close-up views of the Moon's rocky, cratered surface will give you and your family a new way of looking at our planet's nearest neighbor in the night sky. Even the contrasting blue and gold gems of the double star Albireo can be detected with the Observer 60 Altazimuth refractor, not to mention dozens of "deep-sky" gems, including the magnificent Orion Nebula and the glittering Pleiades and Beehive star clusters.
With the Observer 60mm refractor telescope, two eyepieces, EZ Finder II sight, 90� diagonal, and the included MoonMap 260, Astronomy book, and Star Target planisphere, your little astronomer will love exploring the skies and learning about astronomy. Help support and encourage your child's interest in the stars and space with the Observer 60 AZ and Starter Kit. We have a feeling the whole family will want to join in the fun - just don't let them know it's educational too!

I study in a christian University and it is very common to get picked on by a lecturer to pray for the class before any given lecture commences. I havent been as unfortunate as to be chosen to lead "brethren" into a word of prayer but am sure a day will finally come when am picked out. So fellow thinkers, any ideas on how to go about it if the day comes? What reason can you give a lecturer whose age tripples yours, why you can not pray, and not sound like you are disrespecting him? suggestions highly welcome
Is it required to pass the class? Tell him I'll pass based on my freedom of religion also means freedom from religion. Let him get pissed.
I am also curious about requirements with regard to prayer here. I've heard that some Christian Colleges and Universities have fairly strict codes regarding conduct and morality (though I don't know the legality of some of it). If that was the case, you are receiving the benefit of an education from this institution, so you might just have to live up to your end of the bargain and observe certain Christian traditions to the best of your ability.
Even so, maybe the Bible has a loophole for you somewhere.
Matthew 6 states the following:
5"And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 6But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
I could be mistaken, but to me that reads as if prayer is not advisable in front of a class before a lecture. I'm sure there are plenty of arguments against my interpretation, but you could argue that this was a matter of your personal convictions, I guess. Even as an atheist, I agree with the message that acts should be done for their intrinsic merit, and not simply to be seen in public in a bid for praise and admiration.
Perhaps someone with a better understanding of the Bible (as I'm not that knowledgable about it) could find a better argument.
Actually Kris, you belittle yourself - you've hit the nail squarely on the head! Matthew 6 is the perfect out for Wilbur, if he has the juevos to memorize that verse (or at least write it on a crib sheet (and any college student is lying who says they don't know what that is), and recite it in response to his instructor's request to lead the prayer! It's perfect! You're a genius! I am in awe, Sir!
"I'm sorry Sir, I cannot do that, for Matthew 6 says, "But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.'" It would violate my principles to do otherwise --"
And you're home free!!!!
pax vobiscum,
It is not required to pass the class perse, but i suspect if the Lecturer gets offended in the process of me trying to tell him about my worldview, he can sure as 'hell' give me a big zero..
I, like you, also attend a Christian University. When that situation, I generally decline politely by saying something along the lines of "I would rather not pray because I do not believe what you do, and I feel that it would be disrespectful to both of our worldviews if I were to lead the class in prayer." If he questions you further, politely but firmly answer his questions. If you can give him intelligent answers, he will probably leave you alone after that.
Thanks mate, i get the feeling he wont be offended by this explanation...thanks a bunch..
Rich, you're incorrigible - gotta love that in a person!
pax vobiscum,
hehehe...trying to look for the like button to like this suggestion...cant find one...
Sorry, I can't help you, because were I in your place, I would have no problem disrespecting "him," whoever "him" is; because anything else would amount to disrespecting myself, and that I WILL NOT do.
If you find this helpful, be my guest:
When Jehovah's Witnesses or Mormons come to my door and get into the subject of prayer, I sometimes fall to my knees and pray for God to kill me, there and then. Inasmuch as He/She/It has so far failed to do so, I guess it proves He/She/It loves this evil atheist (me); or He/She/It can't do it; or He/She/It doesn't exist. Take your pick. Other times, I might pray for God to grow arms back on all the people in the world who have lost them. Needless to say, I'm still waiting for evidence that He/She/It has done so.
So that's why my arms grew back. I thought it was a little strange, but why look a gift horse in the mouth?
Start your prayer off with "Dearest Satan..."
Well played sir, well played indeed. That comment literally made me have to stifle an actual LOL it caught me by surprise.

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My husband is 79 years old and had radiation seed implants three years ago for prostate cancer. His PSA's since then have been 0.9 or less. He continues to have blood in his semen and burning with ejaculation. Is this common this long after the implants? He's asked his oncologist and urologist, and they just say it's from radiation damage and offer no advice. Any information you could give us would be appreciated.
Richard Whittington, MD, Associate Professor of Radiation Oncology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, responds:
Yes, this can happen after a seed implant for prostate cancer . There is scarring in the prostate and scar tissue will contract as it matures, such that it may squeeze the veins in the prostate, causing the blood to back up into these tiny veins. With exercise like heavy lifting or jogging, the pressure increases and the veins may break. This will cause some men to have a drop or two of bloody fluid on their shorts, or a little blood when they initiate urination. The contraction of the pelvic muscles that occurs during sexual orgasm may also cause these veins to break. IMPORTANT: The breaking of these veins will not and should not cause severe bleeding, so if the bleeding becomes more than just a few drops, you should seek medical attention. This bleeding will not change blood counts. Blood in the prostate is irritating to the prostate, and so men may notice a burning or "itching" type pain in the base of the penis or in the perineum (that is the space between the testicles and the prostate). This is annoying, but again, there is no damage to tissues. An infection in the prostate may also cause these symptoms, and this should be ruled out the first time it happens. An infection may cause the prostate to be tender, and it may be associated with white blood cells in the urine and - occasionally - a positive urine culture. Most importantly, it may cause the PSA to rise a bit, but it is not from tumor and the PSA comes down if and when the infection is controlled. Hope this helps.
Sep 21, 2010 - In breast cancer patients who undergo immediate breast reconstruction, post-mastectomy irradiation is linked to surgical complications and implant loss, but the risk of noninfectious postoperative complications isn't higher after mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction in women who receive chemotherapy, according to two studies published in the September issue of the Archives of Surgery.

Situated in the heart of the country, the "Gateway City" offers all the resources and attractions of a large city while maintaining a strong sense of community and historic culture. A weekend in St. Louis can be spent doing a variety of exciting indoor and outdoor activities. Start your weekend exploring world-class attractions such as the St. Louis Zoo, Grant's Farm and the Missouri Botanical Gardens. Visit the world-famous Budweiser Clydesdales during an Anheuser-Busch brewery tour or catch the action at Busch Stadium while the St. Louis Cardinals host an afternoon game. Once the sun goes down, see a production at The Muny, St. Louis' world-renown outdoor musical amphitheater, or ride a paddle boat around one of the many lakes in Forest Park. Venture to Ted Drewes Frozen Custard to indulge in a St. Louis-style "concrete" at the Route 66 location. Before returning home, make sure to discover kid-friendly attractions such as the Magic House, Science Center and the City Museum. Take a journey 625 feet to the top of the St. Louis Arch and explore the restaurants on Laclede's Landing. In the evening, take in a play or musical at the Fabulous Fox Theatre or dine on The Hill, where Italian-Americans operate many family owned restaurants with a reputation for the best Italian dining outside of Italy. http://explorestlouis.com/visit-explore/discover/25-things-to-do-in-st-louis/http://www.claytonmo.gov/Visitor/Get_to_Know_Clayton_Video.htmhttp://explorestlouis.com/visit-explore/see-do/For additional St. Louis tourist information, please contact the hotel's Concierge.
