The College News Z-815 VOL. XXVIII, No. 8 BRYN MAWR and WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1941 Br/n M�"r College, mi PRICE 10 CENTS . . ___________Copyright, Truateei of Cowles Calls For II. S. Aid As Vital To German Defeat Russian Resistance Weak, Will Fail by Spring, She Declares Goodhart, November 18. � For England, peace with Germany is impossible, said Virginia Cowles. Rut if Britain wins the war, it must be with the full aid of the United States. Russia is disor- ganized; there is no basis for op- ti.nism there. Two and a half years ago, Rus- sia's army was inefficient. Now, ;ilthough it is bigger than the Ger- r.iani', it is being forced back. Probably by late spring, Miss Cowles said, Russia will be out of the war. The United States can have no false sense of security. The psychological and material re- sult of an immediate declaration of war is necessary. The Royal Air Force, which from August first to September 15, 1940, shot down over two thousand Continued on Page Three Calendar , Thursday, November 20 Thanksgiving Vacation.

Tuesday, November 25 Mass Meeting, T)ie Alli- ance, Goodhart, 7:30. Forum Will Feature Debate on U. S. Press and War Censorship The Forum will hold a discussion | on The U. S. Press in Wartime on j November 27, in Qthe Common j Room. The speakers plan to con-| sider voluntary censorship, govern- [ merit department press bureaus and the Office of Facts and Fig- ures. They will attempt to deter- mine what form of censorship would be preferable at present. A study will be made of wartime i censorship in Great Britain, and' of the opinions of editors, the press and the public. The industrial or-i ganization of the American press is also a subject of research. I The Forum hopes to hold this discussion in debate form, since it believes that this will probably i lead to a more satisfactory exposi-, tion. Organized by Ellen Stone, '42, are approximately twelve peo- ple working on the program, and, although they will not all speak, the large number is of great use in making for more rapid and ef- ficient research. MISS COWLES Said "I went to Spain to see why people went to war," "I had been taught that war was never neces- sary. I didn't even know the differ- ence between democracy and Fas- cism. I went to Europe and found out." She said: Women correspondents have a future. They take more trouble over tracking down stories, they write the comprehensive arti- cles that men, intent upon straight news reports, do not attempt. "Beg, borrow, or steal the money. Tell a newspaper you will write a series of articles, get to Portugal or Fiance, and write." $4400 Fund Allotted To Varied Activities The $4400 fund raised by the Ac- tivities Drive will be distributed among the various campus activi- ties in the following manner. The Hudson Shore Labor School and The Bryn Mawr Summer Camp will each receive $1200. $500 has been allotted to The Refugee Schol- arship Fund while The Bryn Mawr League and Players Club will ben- efit by $200 and $300 respectively. The board of hall representatives has not met as yet to apportion the $1000 fund reserved for For- eign and Domestic Relief. Swarthmore Ties Owls in Heartbreaking Came; Second Team Triumphs With Brilliant Victory By Jacquie Ballard, '43 Bryn Mawr, November 18. � A disappointing game in which Swarthmore was outplayed by the Bryn Mawr Varsity ended in a 2-2 tie. It looked like a victory for Bryn Mawr at the end of the first per- iod when the team held a lead of 2-0. Lydia Gifford had made both goals in a period in which she showed her brilliance. Her second goal was breathtaking. Foiling all opposition, she made it by dribbling the ball all the way from the twenty-five yard line. Otherwise the first period was slow. In the beginning of the sec- ond period, however, the Owls ap- peared revitalized. Swarthmore had also improved acquiring such speed that its opponents were con- tinually kept on their toes. The Bryn Mawr defense swiftly freed the ball, while fullbacks were especially notable in defense of the goal. Nevertheless, Swarthmore twice broke through with a goal one made by the right inner and another by the left inner, thereby crushing Bryn Mawr's possible chance for a shutout. At the same time on the adjacent field the Reserves of both teams were playing a game which ended with a 3-1 score in Bryn Mawr's favor. Ty Walker literally won the game with her three goals, and Chellie Chester shone with her clear passes and excellent stickwork. VARSITY \jxxo ..........R. w........ Johnson Matthat ........R.

Doak Officers Elected to Executive Board of B. M. Defense Group Need of Defense Blood Bank At B. M. Hospital Stressed By Dr. Leary The Defense Group of the fac- ulty and staff met for elections on Tuesday evening, November 11. The following new officers were elected: Chairman, Mrs. dc Laguna; Sec- retary, Mrs. Nahm; Treasurer, Mr. Doyle. x Other members of the Executive Committee: Mr. McClure, Miss Northrop, and Mr. Soper. According to the organization of the Defense Group, the Executive Committee may add to itself the chairmen of important sub-com- mittees. Additions to the list of officers will therefore be made soon. An important announcement was made at this meeting concerning the need of blood donors for a ci- vilian defense blood bank at the Bryn Mawr Hospital. Dr. Leary explained the method of plasma blood banking, in which Dr. Stru- mia at the Hospital is an expert. A civilian defense bank would take Continued on Pane Three Conference at Vassar Weighs Our Responsibility to Draftee Dr, Fieser Lectures On Roots of Cancer At Memorial Lecture Dalton, November 15.�Since Dr. Louis Fieser synthesized his first cancer - producing hydrocarbon in Dalton Hall, it was fitting that he .should return there, as the first of the Tennent Memorial lecturers, to give an account of his subsequent progress in the chemical field of, cancer research. Cancer may be defined as an un- controlled growth of cells. What- ever the mechanism is, which, un- der normal conditions, determines the limits of tissue growth, it is lacking or rendered impotent in the cells of cancer. Is there any indi- cation in chemical studies of a cause which might set c^lls off on their uncontrolled career? This is the question which Dr. Fieser's experiments have tried to answer. Carcinogenic Hydrocarbons Skin cancer, as an apparently occupational disease among coal- tar workers, has prompted the in- vestigation of the possible carcino- genic (cancer-producing) proper- ties of certain hydrocarbons. In 1926, while teaching at Bryn Mawr. Continued on Page Four Mr. Chew to Speak At Exhibition Opening Mr. Chew, head of the English department at Bryn Mawr, has been invited to deliver an address on "The Web of English Culture" at the Pierpont Morgan Library in New York on November 25. The occasion is the preview of the exhi- bition, "The British Tradition," which is to be held there from No- vember 26 to March 30. This ex- hibition presents a literary history of Great Britain in a comprehen- sive collection of rare manuscripts dating from the eighth century up to Kipling's own draft of Captains Courageous. Mr. Chew has just published a volume of Representative Poems of Tennyson, edited with introduc- tion and notes, in the "Odyssey Series of Literature," in which his volume of Byron appeared several years ago. How to Lose a War Titles Hypothetical Textbook Of French Fall Vassar College, November 15.� Hoiv to Lose A War, the textbook written by the fall of France, was described by Hans Habe, Hunga- rian author of best-seller, A Thou- sand Shall Fall. "This valuable book of defeat was edited by Laval and published by Petain." Chapter I in How to Lose a War is entitled, "We want a Pacifist Army." Chapter II is called "Rich and poor alike are not allowed to steal bread and sleep under bridges." The French doctrine of "equality" tried to perpetuate the status quo, forbade promotions and killed all ambition. Chapter III, "The Army must not think, only obey," discusses French refusal to give its army an objective to fight for.

Twenty colleges were represented. Mark McCloskey of the Federal Securities Agency and Hans Habe were the key speakers. Morale and its problems were discussed in round tables, lectures and commis- sions. Attending the conference from Bryn Mawr were Catherine Clem- ent, '43, and Barbara Cooley, '42. Mark McCloskey calls ours "the washing-est army that ever was." Mr. McCloskey, Recreation Direc- tor of the Federal Securities Agency, described how he is giving draftees on leave not o�4y a place to wash, but to shop, write letters and play. He first accomplished the tre- mendous job of convincing Con- gress that "Americans can't work well unless they can play, too." By the time funds for recreational fa- cilities were included in the bill which provides for water, sewage, schools and hospitals in defense crowded areas, the recreation commission was ready with plans. Their aim was to improve the or- ganization and capacity of small communities near draft camps or in large production areas. Town committees were organized to provide information, rooms for Continued on 1'iiKe Three Smoking The Self- Government As- sociation wishes to remind students that they are liable to suspension if they smoke in their rooms. In 1917, 3 Days Before U. S. Entered War, Students Rejected Preparedness Courses By Barbara Hull, '44 The "Undergraduate Association Votes Against Substitution of Pre- paredness Course" is the heavy type, full page headline for the College News of April 4, 1917, published three days before the United States declared war against Germany. The conditions under which the faculty were willing to substitute preparedness courses for academic work were ". . . . that the undergraduates should -he, practically unanimous in desiring it, that they should give up to it the time now spent in dramatics .... and extra athletics, that the courses should be registered and advised as usual, and that they should follow the line of work al- ready taken and be along one sub- ject only." The substitute courses offered were " . . . . a course in farming, one in weights and meas- ures .....and one in colloquial languages which would fit a stu- dent to act as censor. Also .... motor repairing, banking, dietetics and home care of the sick, a Red Cross course, and a course in" emergency aid." "Those for the substitution ar- gued that, although the courses would necessarily be much con- densed, they would still fit those who took them to fill the minor positions of men called to service. As these courses would be in con- nection with a student's major," they urged, "they would not seri- ously damage her academic work, only give it practical application." "The negative argumerftjPurged that only those who are^ leaving college this year will be able to ap- ply the training received in these courses. Furthermore," they said, "such courses would be only a temporary digression from the life work of most of the students and that a completed college course would out-weigh such values." Previous to the voting, President Thomas called a special chapel to assure the students of the faculty's sympathy with whatever decisions the students made. Miss Thomas' speech, in part, stated: "I always think of you, and of all students properly protected in their aca- demic work as gold fish swimming around in a great glass globe, en- tirely free to move as you wish within the globe, but protected by the globe from outside activities that will kill you, as the outside air will kill goldfish, if you come in contact with it." "The one thing that we want to create in you is a spirit of freedom and responsibility. You must think for yourselves. This is the one su- preme thing that we women must learn .... I should lose much of my profound love for Bryn Mawr if I did not believe that you, her students, are learning here to be free." * v

LTE speed just keeps on comin'! Rogers rolls out 18 new markets
Whew! Our engineers and technicians must be exhausted! They've just completed the rollout of an impressive 18 new Canadian markets and now, our LTE network reaches nearly 60% of all Canadians. Rogers was the first carrier to introduce LTE in Canada and in many of these markets, we will be the only LTE provider.
18 new markets, from West to East:
Here's where you can now access Rogers LTE across the country:
- British Columbia: Victoria, Abbotsford, Kelowna
- Alberta: Edmonton
- Saskatchewan: Saskatoon and Regina
- Ontario: St. Catharines/Niagara, Oshawa/Pickering/Ajax, Windsor, Sudbury, Kingston, Oakville, Burlington, Hamilton, London, Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge and Barrie
- Quebec: Quebec, Sherbrooke and Trois-Rivières
LTE is also already available in Ottawa, Toronto, Montreal and surrounding cities, Calgary Vancouver and surrounding cities, as well as on the East coast in St. John's and Moncton.
What does LTE mean for you as a Rogers customer?
- Faster speeds! But don't take it from us. Check out results from our LTE speed test contest and, while you're at it, take a peek at how Rogers stacks up against the competition in a test by readers of the iPhoneinCanada blog, where the fastest speed was recorded by a user on the Rogers network in Brampton Ontario.
- Even better access to data: since we first launched our Ottawa LTE network in July of last year, we've seen an 80% increase in data usage, and we expect wireless Internet usage on our network to grow six-fold by the end of 2016.
- Increased mobility: according to Cisco, by 2015 more smartphones will be connected to the Internet than home computers. And the traffic generated from these on-the-go devices will exceed traffic from wired devices.
- The largest selection of LTE devices of any Canadian carrier: among others, we'll soon be carrying a unique version of the LG Optimus G that operates on the 2600 MHz spectrum, making it Canada's fastest smartphone. The LG Optimus G will kick things into high gear with maximum theoretical LTE download speeds of up to 100 Mbps. On Rogers LTE customers will experience typical experienced speeds ranging from 12 Mpbs to up to 40 Mbps.**
Check out our LTE coverage map here and be on the lookout as we continue to expand our LTE coverage, adding additional markets this year and in 2013.
Michelle is a regular contributor to RedBoard
**As device selection evolves, speed capabilities will continue to rise on the Rogers LTE network as customers will be able to benefit from maximum theoretical network speeds of up to 150 Mbps. See www.rogers.com/coverage for full details on Rogers LTE network coverage.

Rogers LTE launching in more cities October 1
Oh the difference LTE makes. Many of you have already told us how LTE has transformed your digital lives. And with some of the most exciting and hottest devices of the year coming to Rogers soon, we wanted to let you know we'll be bringing Rogers LTE to even more cities by October 1.
LTE continues to roll out across Canada
We're continuing to expand our LTE network at a fast pace, with a plan to cover approximately 60 per cent of the population by the end of the year. By October 1, 2012, we will launch in Kingston, Edmonton, Quebec City, Oakville, Burlington, London, Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge and Barrie. Even more cities will launch in 2012 and throughout 2013. We'll continue to keep you updated here on RedBoard. For a list of current, available Rogers LTE cities, check out our full coverage map here.
Why do we love LTE?
If you haven't experienced Rogers LTE yet, here's some of our top reasons why we love LTE speeds:
- Stay connected with your family: Whether you're away for business or out of town for the weekend, you can enjoy face time or video calling with your family at speeds you didn't think were possible on a wireless device.
- Work on the road: With an LTE Rocket stick, hub or hotspot, you can work on the road with ease. Send and receive large documents or conference call your colleague. With superfast LTE speeds, you won't even realize you've left the office.
- Entertain the kids: Use your device to stream videos and music in real time on those long road trips. Your kids will love you and you'll enjoy a peaceful, quiet car ride for a change.
Get the highest speeds available
Rogers was the first to launch LTE in Canada and was the first to offer maximum network theoretical download speeds of up to 100 Mbps, available to the most Canadians, with typical experienced speeds ranging from 12 to 40 Mbps using an eligible device*. This means downloading apps, streaming video and music, storing files in the cloud, enjoying faster gaming experiences with virtually no delays or buffering, and even hosting wireless video conferences, can all be done on your smartphone, at speeds similar to what you would experience on your computer.
Not only that, we have the largest selection of LTE devices in the country and we continue to add devices to our LTE lineup all the time.
Keep checking back with us to see the latest of what Rogers has to offer on LTE!

5 AwesomeShaneh96 | 17/10/2012 | See all Shaneh96's reviews (2)Was excited and unsure about buying this game, but I have'nt been disappointed yet. Plott is good so far and the gameplay is brilliant, flexible and allows creative game play. Graphics are great, can't recommend enough. Best game iv bought this year.
5 ONE OF THE BEST, COULD EVEN BE THE BEST GAMEcenturion | 30/10/2012 | See all centurion's reviews (55)Just got this game today and not been able to put it down even when the misses came in from work.The game play is brill and the open world is great.Before you explore the world try and get a few powers as this makes it easy to explore.Go stealth or full guns blazing it just so good.Could be the game of the year, does remind me of bio-shock but a open world.Get it and just enjoy
5 You won't be disappointed!JustJoey | 08/01/2013 | See all JustJoey's reviews (1)I'm a big fan of the Hitman series and wanted something to play in between levels to make it last longer, and so I bought Dishonoured. I could not put my controller down - from the first level I was hooked. The graphics are a little dated but the gameplay and story are tight and keep the game interesting. If you like Hitman and don't mind taking a step down in terms of graphics, this is a great game. A well deserved five stars. Dishonoured 2?
5 Absolutely, amazing!Chrisgavey96 | 16/12/2012 | See all Chrisgavey96's reviews (2)Dishonored, the game of the year?! It should be, the game play is just astounding, and so are the graphics. I purchased Dishonored, on the day of it's release, and couldn't put it down. I have now completed both sides of the career, evil and good. And it is simple amazing, three words, BUY THIS GAME!
5 Beyond Incrediblehughsi | 12/12/2012 | See all hughsi's reviews (10)This game is incredible. It has good graphics, characters you easily warm to, a great storyline, amazing gameplay, freedom to do things your own way (you can either kill almost everyone you meet or no-one at all, you can use force or stealth and people can be killed or incapacitated in a variety of clever an creative ways), and brilliant replay value (I think there are three endings you can get, as well as a variety of ways to complete your missions).I haven't been as obsessed and addicted to a game in a long time. The closest thing I can make to a negative comment is that I'm glad I completed it quickly because the sleep deprivation was really starting to hit home, especially at work.

I have been told I have some spots on my skin called"actinic keratosis." Does this mean I will get skin cancer?
Rachel Woods, RN, Nurse for the Surgical Dermatology Program at Penn Medicine responds:
If you have an AK, you are at risk for developing squamous cell cancer. AKs are precancerous and can be treated easily but it is a warning to keep vigilant about your skin checks
This question and answer was part of the OncoLink Brown Bag Chat Series. View the entire Sun Safety Webchat transcript.
Mar 6, 2015 - Workplace safe sun policies and participation in skin cancer prevention programs both help improve the sun protection habits of lifeguards and aquatic instructors, but social norms exert the greatest influence, researchers report in the February issue of the Archives of Dermatology.

quote:Our staff did not pull Williams' offer, so that part isn't true but our staff has backed off him. He's still a take in all likliehood but he isn't the priority nor is the staff waiting around for him to get shite together. His spot is open to other prospects on the board and not guaranteed any longer, at least at this point. Huge questions about his academic standing among other things. The point of the whole discussion is to not be suprised or upset when he isn't in the class. All of that could change at any time but he's down the board at the moment.
quote:Perhaps thats why we supposedly "backed off" of him in the past few weeks because he might have to go to JUCO/prep school.

For anyone familiar with quality television, they'll hear the word "Aaron Sorkin's new show" and become giddy. He's been the lead on such projects as The Social Network and West Wing. His new show is broadcasted on HBO, continuing the trail of fantastic series that includes Game of Thrones and…well that's enough for me. I eat that stuff up.
In a promotional move, HBO put the pilot episode on Youtube, a feat that is either completely original or at the very least a unique move for a company that requires a subscription to watch anything on TV or on the internet. For the benefit of all my readers, I have done my part in getting the word out and posting it on my blog. Enjoy.
For those interested, here is a deeper analysis of the show.

September 2012
New vaccines that aim to promote recovery from cocaine and heroin abuse showed promise in animal testing. Both vaccines induced rats' immune system to produce high titers of antibodies that inhibit the target drug from reaching the brain. The rats' behaviors when given access to the target drug indicated that the vaccines reduced the reinforcing effects that, in recovering people, can cause lapses to turn into relapses.
July 2012
Fewer than 12 percent of adolescents who meet diagnostic criteria for prescription opioid abuse or dependence receive any treatment, according to an analysis of data from the 2005 to 2008 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. The most common reason the adolescents gave for not receiving treatment was their lack of perceived need for it.
July 2012 Intensive case management was more effective in increasing treatment engagement and reducing alcohol consumption among depressed participants than among those who were not depressed, according to a followup analysis of a substance abuse treatment study involving women on welfare.
July 2012 Rates of adolescent cigarette smoking and alcohol drinking stood at historic lows in 2011, but marijuana use trended upward, according to the Monitoring the Future (MTF) survey.
Prenatal drug exposure can have behavioral effects that last well into adulthood, according to two studies of adult monkeys prenatally exposed to cocaine. In the first study, drug-exposed monkeys exhibited less flexibility than controls in adjusting to changing circumstances; in the second study, drug-exposed males exhibited a greater preference than controls for having rewards right away, a sign of impulsivity.
July 2012 A modified therapeutic community program designed by NIDA-supported researchers helped Colorado offenders with co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders re-enter their communities and avoid recidivism after release from prison.
July 2012 NIDA researchers working with human subjects now have a new resource at their fingertips: the PhenX Toolkit's new Substance Abuse and Addiction (SAA) Collection. The Toolkit is designed to provide standardized measures, vetted and approved by the field, to help researchers compare and combine data from multiple studies.
NIDA researchers have developed a computer program that motivates and encourages treatment-seeking when an individual is in a primary care physician's waiting room. Users of the program, called Video Doctor, enter information on a portable device and receive feedback about health risks related to their drug abuse, along with advice, immediately prior to seeing their physician.
Towns that implemented a drug abuse prevention program called Communities That Care will see a return of $5.30 for each $1 they invested during the 5-year trial of the intervention, according to a cost-benefit analysis. The estimate is based on reductions in smoking and delinquency observed during the fourth year of the study among eighth-graders and the projected total costs of smoking, delinquency, and crime avoided over the lifetimes of study participants.
Ninety percent of privately funded substance abuse treatment programs in the United States offer cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)...

Folic acid is a type of B vitamin. It is the man-made (synthetic) form of folate that is found in supplements and added to fortified foods.
Folate is a generic term for both naturally occurring folate found in foods and folic acid.
Folic acid is water-soluble. Water-soluble vitamins dissolve in water. Leftover amounts of the vitamin leave the body through the urine. That means your body does not store folic acid and you need a continuous supply of the vitamin in the foods you eat.
Folic acid; Polyglutamyl folacin; Pteroylmonoglutamate; Folate
Folate helps tissues grow and cells work. Taking the right amount of folic acid before and during pregnancy helps prevent certain birth defects, including spina bifida. Folate also helps prevent anemia.
Folate deficiency may cause:
It may also lead to certain types of anemias .
Folate works along with vitamin B12 and vitamin C to help the body break down, use, and create new proteins . The vitamin helps form red blood cells and produce DNA, the building block of the human body, which carries genetic information.
Folic acid supplements may also be used to treat folic acid deficiency, certain menstrual problems, and leg ulcers .
Folate occurs naturally in the following foods:
Fortified means that vitamins have been added to the food. Many foods are now fortified with folic acid, including enriched breads, cereals, flours, cornmeals, pastas, rice, and other grain products.
Too much folic acid usually doesn't cause harm, because the vitamin is regularly removed from the body through urine.
The best way to get the daily requirement of essential vitamins is to eat a wide variety of foods. Most people in the United States get enough folic acid in their diet because it is plentiful in the food supply.
There is good evidence that folic acid can help reduce the risk of certain birth defects (spina bifida and anencephaly ). Women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant should take at least 400 micrograms (mcg) of a folic acid supplement every day. Pregnant women need even higher levels of folic acid. Ask your health care provider which amount is best for you.
The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for vitamins reflects how much of each vitamin most people should get each day.
The Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine Recommended Intakes for Individuals - Daily Reference Intakes (DRIs) for folate:
*For infants from birth to 12 months, the Food and Nutrition Board established an Acceptable Intake (AI) for folate that is equivalent to the mean intake of folate in healthy, breastfed infants in the United States.

Architect, builder, and developer Jonathan Segal, FAIA, has always admired the California courtyard housing communities of the 1920s. "There's a wonderful feeling about them," he says. "Their proportion and scale, their landscaping." He used them as a model for The Charmer, a 19-unit multifamily project in San Diego's Little Italy neighborhood. The Charmer takes the pedestrian-friendly planning of historic courtyard apartments and combines it with restrained modern design, creating such an appealing place to live that the 2012 residential architect Design Awards judges selected it as Project of the Year. "It resonates completely," said a juror. "It has a lovely sense of scale that relates to the neighborhood. There's a real sense of humanity and livability."
Segal has been working in Little Italy since the 1990s, boldly designing, building, and developing innovative housing and mixed-use projects. With The Charmer, he and his co-designer and son, Matthew Segal, followed their typical strategy of staying fairly small-scale and avoiding standard multifamily features such as underground parking, elevators, and indoor hallways. "We're trying to keep it very urban, yet keep it to two to three stories," Jonathan Segal says. "That's what we like best. At that height we don't have underground parking requirements, and we can do the building materials ourselves."
Residents can choose from six one-bedroom bungalows grouped around a central courtyard; 10 three-bedroom units placed outside the bungalows, toward the perimeter of the site; or three two-bedroom units overlooking the courtyard. Five thousand square feet of commercial space occupies the ground level on the complex's east end. All of the parking is at grade, and while some spaces are covered to comply with local requirements, most residents park in the landscaped, permeably paved courtyard.
The Charmer's simple materials palette of stucco, glass, metal, and asphalt shingles pleased the jury—particularly the shingles, which serve as siding in some parts of the project. Plaster fins on the east side funnel light indoors while blocking sight lines and noise from the freeway below the buildings. And in another quality-of-life maneuver, generous patios—some with built-in fireplaces—grace each non-courtyard-facing unit.
The outdoor spaces at The Charmer carry just as much weight with Segal as the buildings themselves, for he believes that beauty and livability are crucial—and often overlooked—components of environmental design. "It's the notion of having a place where you want to stay home and not hop in the car," he says. "There's a social aspect to green that people need to focus on." The project's design emphasizes the idea of a multifamily dwelling as a place of well-being. Said a judge: "It's not extravagant, but because of the forms, it's very rich. You get the feeling that all the people who live there have got to be good neighbors to each other."

quote:Margaery Tyrell would be my choice
quote:Definitely. You get Highgardern and you know she wasn't getting poked by Renly.
quote:The books portray her as a very nice girl as compared to the TV series, dont you think? I saw Season 2 before reading the books, so seeing how nice and innocent she was in the books really jarred me.
quote:Natalie Dormer
quote:Blackwater was great, by far the highlight of the season. Coincidence that GRRM wrote it? It's the rest of the season that was a let down
quote:If they screw up Dany buying her unsullied, I will be pissed. It is one of the very few times in the story when she not only surprises everyone around her with a badass move, but that badass move turns her from a toothless (dragons still small) foe into a force to be reckoned with. That scene should be at least 10 minutes long. Let that a-hole Kraznys act like an ass, get to know and like Missendai, and then, well, she takes the city and gains an army.
quote:Yea that's what made it great, the explosions
quote: S2 was a letdown bc of some bad writing like robb's love scene and unnecessary changes
quote:I started out following this production from the very beginning and eating up every rumor, casting, set pics, etc, but after what they did in the second season, they're gonna frick this one up too. I've lost faith in D&D w/ some of the changes/omissions and think S3 will be another let down.
quote:You're just an apologist for everything re GOT. We get it the show gets your panties wet just thinking about and you feel the need to defend everything semi-critical.
