This weeks tip comes from Yan Killy, Technical Marketing Engineering, talking about cross probing between your schematic and PADS Layout or Router.
Cross probing from schematic to layout/router can save a lot of time and during the design cycle. It help's during the placement of components, especially when components on a schematic sheet need to placed near one another on the board. You can select individual components in the schematic and in layout/router the same component is selected, and you can then place it. Also, you can select multiple components in schematic, and in layout use 'Move Sequential' command which will attach the first component to your cursor. Once you place first selected component, next component automatically will be on your cursor for placement.
Cross probing is also is very useful for when routing and reviewing critical signals. For example, as soon as you start routing Clock net in layout or router, same net will be highlighted in schematic. This same function is helpful during design reviews and debugging. If you want to see how a certain net is routed in layout or router but you do not know where it is in the finished board, just select it in schematic and it will be highlighted in layout or router.

Fitness Gear 35 lb Hammertone Kettlebell
Does the job
So far happy with the kettle bells. I bought 2 to start training with kettlebells. Only complaint is the bottoms are not perfectly flat which makes it a challenge to do excersices like renegade rows and the like. Everything else is great on them.
February 21, 2015
This was exactly what I needed.
Dick's had a good selection of sizes of kettlebells. I appreciated the discount that came with opening the sports card.
April 23, 2013
Not Competition Size - but good for home use
If you have experience with Kettle Bells already - this is a good one for a decent price. I like the $10 coupons.
April 2, 2013
Great product
Been using this a few weeks and have noticed huge improvements in my strength and overallfitness. The handle is a little rough, sand it down or wear gloves. Other than that, works great.

Intense Workout!
I've been looking at Kettlebells for years but just never got around to trying them out. Recently came across some interesting research extolling their benefits. I am not in bad condition but was blown away by how intense just working with this for 10-15 minutes could be. I'm addicted! Every movement is functional and works the entire body.
August 21, 2012
solid product
I use the kettlebell regularly to do standard swings, Turkish get-ups, squats, etc. It's a solid piece of work, with a good grip. The grip is a little rough and will cause blisters, but if you're a real man, you don't care about that. Or use gloves Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day!

Best. Workout. Ever.
When I first heard of kettlebells it seemed like a joke, how was I supposed to get a real work out with only 35lbs? I normally workout for 90min a day at the gym with free weights, my first kettlebell session lasted 50 mins and I was dead tired. After only three weeks I feel stronger and look better than I ever had before. Work out with a kettlebell, you will not regret it.....unless you drop it on your foot.
August 2, 2012
very compact and useful.
they are a great asset to our gym the only bad thing is the paint was chipped on everyone from being moved by others observing or useing in store before i purchased.
July 9, 2012
Works As Advertised
I use the kettlebell to increase strength and flexibility, and for overall fitness. It's not built with precision or aesthetics in mind, but it isn't intended to. Not worried about hurting it. Ever. Not a lot of moving parts going on here...

Honoring our home care, hospice heroes
Friday, November 9, 2012
November is National Home Care and Hospice Month, which recognizes the highly skilled and compassionate care that home health and hospice agencies provide. Home health care allows an individual to receive health care in the privacy, and comfort, and security of his or her home, near family, friends and loved ones. In rural communities, it allows people to avoid long, and sometimes difficult, trips to medical facilities or to doctor's offices, which can be far from home. And it can reduce the need for emergency room visits and nursing home care. |

AUBURN UNIVERSITY – Americans will be celebrating July 4 with food, fireworks and being outside, and it's important to remember that while owners are enjoying summer, they need to be mindful to keep pets safe as well.
Auburn University veterinarian Dr. Sara-Louise Newcomer says owners should take the same care with pets as they do children around grills, fireworks and in hot weather. One of two veterinarians who provide wellness care in the College of Veterinary Medicine's Community Practice Clinic, Newcomer offers some advice on caring for your pet during the dog days of summer.
"Many breeds of dogs are predisposed to overheating, but all animals can suffer from heat exhaustion, especially in summer's mid-90-degree weather," she said. "Risks of heat exhaustion are increased with activities outside, but also with traveling in the car, particularly when left in a parked car for any period of time."
Dogs who have flat-noses (called brachycephalic), like English bulldogs, French bulldogs, Shih Tzus and pugs; heavily-muscled dogs like pit bulls and boxers; large breed dogs; and any overweight animal is at an increase to suffer from overheating due their poor ability to dissipate heat.
"Dogs with health problems like laryngeal paralysis (an airway cartilage abnormality that results in loud, noisy breathing or a change in bark) are also predisposed to heat stroke," she added. "And, dogs who regularly carry tennis balls in their mouths are also at risk because their airway is partially blocked, which can prevent adequate panting and cooling."
Signs of heat stroke in animals includes constant panting, slowing down, collapse, dark red gums, little urine production and lethargy. "If any of these signs occur, pet owners should cool their pets immediately by using a source of lukewarm to cool water, not cold water," Newcomer advises. "Put the animal in a pond or pool, or use a garden hose to wet the animal.
"And, owners should immediately call their pet's veterinarian."
Fireworks can be another danger for animals. From sparklers to bottle rockets, flames from fireworks can injure people and pets, and fumes and other chemical agents in fireworks can be potentially harmful to animals.
While July 4 festivities wouldn't be the same without fireworks, caution should be used. Common sites for pets being burned from fireworks include the face, muzzle, lips, tongue and paws. A pet that ingests fireworks, the heavy metals or other materials can have vomiting, lethargy, diarrhea, jaundice, tremors, and seizures.
"The loud noises from fireworks also scare many animals so make sure your pet is in a safe and secure place to prevent them from running away," Newcomer says.
Even some of the most common July 4 picnic foods – like corn, grapes, raisins and fatty meat scraps – can be harmful to pets. "While corn is not toxic to pets, the cob can easily become lodged in a dog's esophagus or intestines, often requiring surgical removal," she says.
Although grapes and raisins are treats for people, even a few can cause sudden kidney failure in dogs and, potentially, cats, she says.
Dogs, like people, can become sick from fatty meats. "When dogs eat large amounts of fat and grease, they may suffer from pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), which is painful and potentially life-threatening," Newcomer says. "Certain breeds, especially miniature Schnauzers, are more likely to develop pancreatitis."

Open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is surgery to fix a widened part in your aorta, called an aneurysm. The aorta is the large artery that carries blood to your belly (abdomen), pelvis, and legs.
An aortic aneurysm is when part of this artery becomes too large or balloons outward.
The surgery will take place in an operating room. You will be given general anesthesia (you will be asleep and pain-free).
Your surgeon opens up your belly and replaces the aortic aneurysm with a man-made, cloth-like material.
Here's how it can be done:
Surgery for aortic aneurysm replacement may take 2 to 4 hours. Most patients recover in the intensive care unit (ICU) after the surgery.
AAA - open; Repair - aortic aneurysm - open
Open surgery to repair an abdominal aortic aneurysm is sometimes done as an emergency procedure when there is bleeding inside your body from the aneurysm.
You may have an abdominal aortic aneurysm that is not causing any symptoms or problems. Your doctor may have found the problem after you had an ultrasound or CT scan done for another reason. There is a risk that this aneurysm may suddenly break open (rupture) if you do not have surgery to repair it. However, surgery to repair the aneurysm may also be risky, depending on your overall health.
You and your doctor must decide whether the risk of having this surgery is smaller than the risk of rupture. The doctor is more likely to recommend surgery if the aneurysm is:
The risks for this surgery are higher if you have:
Risks of problems or complications are also higher for older people.
Risks for any surgery are:
Risks for this surgery are:
Your doctor will carefully examine you and order tests before you have surgery.
Always tell your doctor or nurse what drugs you are taking, even drugs, supplements, or herbs you bought without a prescription.
If you are a smoker, you should stop smoking at least 4 weeks before your surgery. Your doctor or nurse can help.
During the 2 weeks before your surgery:
Do NOT drink anything after midnight the day before your surgery, including water.
On the day of your surgery:
Most people stay in the hospital for 5 to 10 days. During a hospital stay, you will:
Full recovery for open surgery to repair an aortic aneurysm may take 2 or 3 months. Most people make a full recovery from this surgery.
Most people who have an aneurysm repaired before it breaks open (ruptures) have a good outlook.

The College News Volume V. No. 26 BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30, 1919 Price 5 Centf FETE CHAMPETRE FOR VICTORY CHAIR, GIVEN^IN CLOISTERS Alumna* Launch Campaign Today, with French Program, for Endowment President Thomas and the Philadelphia branch of the Bryn Mawr Alumnae Asso- ciation gave a Fete Champetre in the Cloisters this afternoon at four o'clock. The fete was given to launch the cam- paign for the founding of the Victory Chair in French at Bryn Mawr with an endowment of one hundred thousand dollars. A program of speeches, songs and dances was carried out. In an opening speech of welcome Presi- dent Thomas expressed the sympathy which Bryn Mawr has always had for France. This speech waa followed by an address on the "Importance of the Teach- ing of French in America," by Monsieur Jean N. Cru, of the French High Commis- sion. M. Crue. who was a member of the Williams College faculty, has been at the front throughout the war and has served as "lnterprete de llason" between an English-speaking regiment and a French unit. Elizabeth B. Clark '95 (Mrs. Her- bert I* Clark), chairman of the Philadel- phia branch of the Alumnae Association, also spoke, urging all those who cared for France to give bonds for the Victory French chair. "Chansons Populaires," including such familiar songs as "Au Clalr de La Lune." "Aupres de Ma Blonde," were sung by the students, led by the French Club. Dances in Alsatian costume were given under the direction of J. Peabody '19, president of the French Club. The programme closed with a tableau of allied nations, In which Ix>is Kellogg '20 took the part of Joan of Arc, the audience rising and singing "Joan of Arc," as she entered. Victory Loan Starts With $17,000 The clock above the Liberty Loan booth pointed to 917,000 towards the college quota of $20,000. on Tuesday afternoon, the end of the second day. Joseph Connolly, employee on the grounds, was for the third time the first subscriber. Among others on the honor roll the first day were President Thomas, Miss Franklin, manager of the college campaign, and Dr. Hoppin. The booth will be open from 9-3 tomorrow and Friday, and next week, on Wednesday. Thursday, and Friday. A rally, with speakers, will be held next Wednesday. CIRCUS VI8IT8 BRYN MAWR Supper "Play" Highly Original A circus, hardly equalled by Barnum & Bailey's in originality and skill, was the setting for the Junior-Senior Supper held in the gymnasium Friday evening. Clowns, cowboys, the only wild woman in captivity, tight rope walkers and various animals, including a monkey governed largely by instinct, ushered the Seniors to their seats inside the tent and disap- peared to take part in the Grand Parade, led around the ring by A. Harrison, the right-hand man of the ringmaster, M. Littell. A daring feat in tightrope walking along the white lines of the gymnasium floor left the audience breathless and was the first of several stunts performed dur Ing the dinner. An opera in four acts, un winding the reel of 1919's life, showed the influence of Seneca In the staging of the crisis, the famous "Fight in the VIII" between '19 and '20. The operetta ended with the two classes being "good fellows to-gether ever." Z. Boynton. the cele- brated sleight-of-hand man, and "Tootsie." the fat lady, guaranteed to be an excel- lent wife because there was so much to her, performed amid applause. After the (Continued on page 2, column 2.) FIFTH LOAN MOST AMERICAN SAYS MR. WHITTEMORE Opens College Campaign With Rout- ing Speech in Chapel "The Fifth Liberty Loan is not only the most important, but the most Ameri- can." said Mr. Thomas Whittemore, chairman of the Main Line Liberty Loan Committee, who opened the college cam- paign with a sj�eech In chapel Monday morning. "If the loan stands for anything, it stands for the quality we Americans get from our English blood, that of being able to finish something we have started." The loan, at 4% per cent, practically tax- exempt, is on a sound economic basis, be- ing Interconvertible at all times with the loan at 4% per cent, which is absolutely tax-exempt, bo the money need not be lent from a sentimental viewpoint. But the person who subscribes, thinking only of the commercial side, will suffer a spir- itual loss. "If the war had lasted six months longer. 100.000 more Americans would have been killed." Mr. Whittemore con- cluded. "Germany save in because we did not tackle the war in the state of mind of the great tightwad, and because she knew we were stinting neither men nor money. It falls to our privilege to pay the bills, the incurrence of which brought the war to a speedier end than would otherwise have been possible." May Day Celebration Opens at 145 May Day will begin officially at 6.45 to- morrow morning, when the Seniors, In cap and gown, will gather in front of the Deanery and sing "The Hunt Is Up." They will then march to Rockefeller, to sing the Magdalene Hymn from Rockefel- ler tower at exactly seven o'clock. After the singing, M. Thurman. Senior president, will be crowned May Queen by J. Peyton, president of 1921. The Seniors fast, and at a quarter to eight, accom- panied by the Bryn Mawr Band, and to the tune of their parade song, they will march to Denbigh green. The band will then strike up the May Day song and the May pole dancing by all the classes will begin. TOUR OF STUDENT BUILDINGS WILL BEGIN MAY 1 MISS KIRK LEAVING FOR FRANCE Will Work a Year Under Y. W. C. A. Helen Reed Kirk '14, Assistant Director of Athletics and Gymnastics, is planning to leave for France the last of May under the auspices of the Y. W (\ A. Miss Kirk will probably work as an athletic instructor in Paris during the coming year. EX-PRESIDENT TAFT TO SPEAK AT COMMENCEMENT Will Talk On League of Nations Ex-President William Howard Taft will deliver the Commencement Address on June ML His subject will be the League of Nations. Mr. Taft has spoken twice before at Bryn Mawr Commencement. In 1910. when he was President, his Commence- ment speech was held in the Cloisters.

Undergraduates Try to Remove "Sunny Jim" Restrictions Motions to try to remove the restric- tion that the "Sunny Jim" frize must be given to one of the "upper hair" were paaaed in an undergraduate meeting Tuesday night. The regular "Sunny Jim" committee of the undergraduates was instructed to tell the "Sunny Jim" committee of the faculty and staff in ihe conference Tuesday morning of the undergraduate feeling about the re- striction. Another committee, appointed by the undergraduate president, will con- fer later with President Thomas and the faculty on the interpretation of the prise for future years. The committee is M. Martin 19. M. Thurman 19, D. Clark "20. M. Cary '20. and H. Holmes '20. The principal reason for removing the restriction was that while the donor stip- ulated the "Sunny Jim" must have "for- titude, faithfulness, high courage and Joyousness." only in the last three years has "faithfulness" been Interpreted to mean being in the upper hslf. It was ar- gued that to graduate with the required merits shows that one has been faithful to scholarship, and that a person Just be- low the arbitrary median grade of the class could be Just as good a "Sunny Jim" as the person Just above. If your coins are drones� Just serving you� Buy some Victory Loans. And help me. too. Uncle Sam _

I{^€3S Bids for State Coliseum For Century 21 Exposition To Be Called in January Washington's 1962 World's Fair,, the Century 21 Exposition, will move into dramatic visual stages of development in January when bids will be called on the state's S5,800;0()0 Coliseum. The picture at the top of this page shows an interior shot: of the huge structure which will be one of the major exhibition buildings of the Exposition A picture of the exterior of the model of the Coliseum designed by Seattle architect Paul H. Thiry. was published in the July 1, 1959, issue of this bulletin. Located at the west entrance to the 74-acre exposition grounds the State's Coliseum will occupy a tract roughly bounded by 1st Ave, N., Thomas Street/ Republic Street and 2nd Ave. N. The structure will cover 4 acres under a dramatic supported roof rising to a peak equivalent to an 11-story budding. Six miles of steel cable will be required to support the colored, aluminum panels which will comprise the roof. Glass walls will enclose 129,000 square teet oi: unobstructed exhibition space. Coliseum Draws international Attention The design for the Coliseum has already attracted international attention for its innovations in architectural art All operations relating to the official participation of the State oi Washington in the exposition are under administrative control of the director of the Department of Commerce and Economic Development, functioning with the advice and approval of the State World Fair Commission. Activities currently underway include: Preparations for letting the contract tor construct:ion of the state's $3,800,000 Coliseum, Negotiations with the City of Seattle relative to Seattle's Flan to purchase the Coliseum following the conclusion of Century 21. The building has been designed for conversion to a permanent enclosed sports arena seating up to 18,000 persons. Negotiations with the City of Seattle relative to transfer oi certain parcels of land which will permit the state to transfer to the Federal Government the land required for construction of the massive Federal building. The latter is a parr of the U S Government's participation under a S9 million appropriation enacted hy the last session of Congress. ------Remodeling of the Exposition Headquarters Building on 1st Avenue North near Thomas Street, purchased toy the state from its former insurance company owners. The headquarters building wUl be retained by the state for state office purposes after conclusion of Century 21. Meantime, a drive will get underway in January to raise the necessary S3 million from private "sources required to finance the Century 21 Corporation. The private corporation will lease the land, and buildings from the state and the city and officially operate the exposition. Stanford Research Institute has estimated that between 8 million and 12 million visitors will attend the exposition. Losing only the lower figure, Century 21 expects to net SB million on the exposition with an "additional S3 million derived from concessions, rentals and other features of the exposition. The State Department of Commerce and Economic Development estimates that even with a minimom of 6 million visitors the direct revenue to the state, from sales and gasoline taxes, will more than compensate the state per se for its S7.5 million investment m Century 21.

Customer Reviews for Child Safe Kids Room New Additions Cordless Window Shades
"Great Roller Shade"
By customer from Jasper, GA
I bought this Roller Shade for my daughters play room. The colors are true to the picture and even though I bought a large shade it is really easy to lower or raise. The design with the birds is so cute and matches perfectly. I installed them myself with no problem at all. I love it! The price is really great and the quality of the shade is excellent!
View this product"Perfect for our nursery"
By JJSmith from Denver
We decided on this blind for our nursery because we wanted something that would create total darkness, but we also wanted something that would let light through and just provide privacy for occasions when the babies aren't sleeping. This is a perfect solution. The blackout portion keeps almost all of the light out, then the regular shade allows light in but looks great. I love it. The cordless feature is also important since it's in a babies room.

From the 1850s through the end of his life, Corot increasingly relied on memories of his travels, inventing a new genre of poetic painting, his "souvenirs" of special places. He made this work some forty-five years after his initial visit to Terni, a city north of Rome. It could illustrate the final lines of Virgil's Eclogues: "Get home, my full-fed goats, get home—the Evening Star draws on."

The / / 2-615 News VOL. XXVI, No. 2 BRYN MAWR and WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1939 PRICE 10 CENTS Council Meets To Consider Recfent Plans Freshman Week Discussed With Group Insurance And May Day The first meeting: of the college council this year was held at Miss Park's house on October 12. Mem- bers of the council include: heads of the four big college organiza- tions and the Netos, class presi- dents, representatives of the alum- nae arid faculty, and Miss Park, Mrs. Manning, Miss Ward, Mrs. Collins, and Miss Petts. The coun- cil is purely a discussion committee and has no actual powers.. The bearing of the European war on big May Day was discussed by Miss Park. Other topics considered were: the success of freshman week, the group insurance plan, funds for the new athletic building, and plans of the alumnae associa- tion. Miss Park explained that further student discussion of May Day would have to wait until after the meeting, on October 19, of the board of directors, who underwrite the expenses. The action of the board is always linked up� with their interpretation of student opinion, and they also consider the probable effect of outside factors on May Day's financial success. All discussion, Miss Park contin- ued, should be purely on a college- basis, for exaggerated war-con- sciousness must be avoided at all costs. Whether the college can spare the time and whether the en- terprise will succeed financially are the relevant considerations. In the discussion of freshman week, the council agreed that the Continued on Page Four Junior Elections The Junior Class announces the election of the following officers for 1939-40: Helen Macintosh, president; Char- lotte Hutchins, vice-president, and Nancy Howard, secre- tary. College Plans Gala Visit for Alumnae Program Includes Conferences With Faculty and Review Of College Life The alumnae arriving for the fourth Alumnae Week-end on Oc- tober 20, will find a program prepared, not only for their enter- tainment, but also to revive their interest in the academic side of college. As a special innovation this year the conferences with the faculty have been arranged so that special panels composed of holders of higher degrees, "and other special- ists in the subject, will lead and rlaiify the discussions.

War lisrupts domestic industry, caus- ing abnormal expansion, inflation vnd cre:'it lazards; its eventual csult is one of wdste and depres- ion which no legal measures can ivoid. Concerning the neutrality debate, Mr. Anderson said that the eco- nomic phases of the various amend- in mts now before the senate were not of as great importance as the political effects of the proposed neutrality laws. Economically, the di Terence between these suggested Formi of legislation is practically eligible. Should we retain the present em- bargo, expansion of our munitions Continued on Page Four Mr. Fenwick Common Room, Oct. 17.�Dr. Fenwick, speaking at the meeting of the International Relations Club, gave a summary of points in the debate on neutrality legisla- Lion. He stressed the necessity for legislation providing both for the repeal of the present arms em- bargo and for adoption of the cash- and-carry clause. International law prescribes cer- tain rights and duties which define the position of neutral powers in wartime. These rights and duties are unchangeable, but any gov- e.nment may, in its own interest, place further restrictions upon its citizens. Tin the United States proposes to do, the better to in- sure neutrality.

Plans Recast of Neutrality Aims Common Room, Oct. 12.�At an open meeting to discuss American neutrality, the Bryn Mawr chapter of the A. S. U. voted to support the general provisions of the Ad- ministrative Committee's national peace policy, but to recast them in i more specific form. The present policy urges "the strengthening of American de- mocracy ,at home" as the surest means to avoid war. It favors the Pre-ident's proposals to revise the Neutrality Act, closer collabora- ion with the Latin American de- mocracies, a?d to the victims of war, and the cessation of "Ameri- can participation in Japanese ag- gression." The actual wording of the policy was considered vague and unsatis- factory and it was decided that the Peace Committee should re- write the provisions and present them as resolutions to be voted on it a future meeting. Barbara Bradfield, 'Athenia' Survivor, Sees 'Submarine Patrol' in Ireland � _L^ . By Elizabeth "Seventy people in a lifeboat, and seventy of them seasick." That �"^ was the way Barbara Bradfield, graduate student in Modern Eu- ropean History, described her eight hours in a lifeboat from the tor- pedoed Athenia. She arrived at Bryn Mawr after the opening of college, v She and two friends had spent the summer bicycling in Belgium, France, Germany, and Holland. They reached London on the 22nd ^ of August and, after the Caledonia had been commandeered, secured passage on the Athenia, sailing from Glasgow on September 1st. War was declared on the 3rd at 11.15 a. m., London time, and at 7.40 that evening the Athenia was struck. "Immediately there was a terrific- list to port," said Brad- field, who was on her way to her cabin at the time of the impact - At this historic moment, she walked to a porthole, illegally open, to see what wad going on. Then she did nothing for a couple of minutes. A woman saw her and, Crazier, '41 thrusting an infant into her arms, cried, "Hold my baby!" and ran off. Pretty soon she came back, shr^ked at Bradfield, "There's my baby!" and grabbed it. Someone else rushing by to get on deck shouted, "Watch the stairs!" and tore on. So Bradfield watched the stairs. The lights had gone out, and there was danger of people's falling. To everyone who came along she said, "The boiler's burst�get up on deck." She thought she ought to get there her- self pretty soon. Finally three Canadian boys came along with flashlights and told her to get her lifebelt while they watched the stairs. After meeting her two companions en route, she went to her boat station. Describing the scene on deck, Bradfield said, "Everybody behaved very decently arid very gallantly. No member of the crew had to be shot." She got into her lifeboat (built for 35 and filled to double that capacity) by way of a ropeladder.

While in New York at the Neighborhood Playhouse, Miss Schindler directed group dances and taught the relationship of movement to acting. She is now secretary of the Philadelphia Danc- ers' Association and chairman of the Dance Center of Philadelphia. Reviews in the Philadelphia news- papers have often commended Miss Schindler's ability. The Philadel- phia Evening Bulletin writes, "Possessed of an excellent tech- nique and a fine sense of composi- tion and style. . . . Breadth of her background and understanding is large. . . . Her dance to Raskin's American Dream was fresh, point- ed, and admirably dejfined. . . Her versatility and range or form con- tributed further to an excellent performance." The plans for the year will con- sist of informal dance demonstra- tions with visiting dancers, and the group will work towards the performance of a ballet written by Schima Kaufman, well-known mu- sician in the Philadelphia Or- chestra. If any of the dancers are interested enough there will be extra work and a recital similar to the one year before last under Ethel Mann. Average Freshman is 17, Of American Descent, Local Origin* Miss Julia Ward, Director of Ad- missions and Assistant to the Dean, reports that this year's freshman class seems just about the same as any tother, except for its immensity (it out-numbers the seniors two to one). Of its 164 members, includ- ing 12 transfer students, six are from foreign countries: three from Canada, one from Chma, one from England, and one from France. The average freshman is a month older than her immediate predeces- sor, and was very likely rated first in her senior class at school. The increase of population this year is not wholly due to the size of the f reshman class. The plan of the Board of Directors to increase the undergraduate body by 25 stu- dents each year for four years has been changed by various circum- stances. The language houses made it possible to increase the enroll- ment by 16 in 1937. Last year's large class helped to fill Rhoads South. Now Rhoads North is en- tirely occupied but for 16 spaces, instead of being only half full. Finally, Miss Ward explains," "the upperclassmen who had expected to study abroad have returned to Bryn Mawr artd they as well as the unusually large freshman class have again swelled the numbers of resident students." The largest percentage of the class of 1943 comes as usual from "the long thin home, rectangle," bounded by New York City and its suburbs on the north, Washington on the south, and Paoli oh the west. Last year 46 per cenLcame from this area: 42 per cent represent it this year. Outside this rectangle the percentages are as follows, with a noted increase in the numbers from the west; Pennsylvania, 7 per""1 cent; New York, 7 per cent; New England, 15 per cent; the Middle West, 15 per cent; the Far West, 5 per cent; the South, 5 per cent.

The. policy here stated is similar to that already in force in other women's colleges. The at- tached regulation applies to all students, whether gradu- ate or undergraduate: No student is privileged to authorize the use of her own name, picture or endorsement linked with the name of the college ,for the purpose of advertising or promoting any business venture, social or sports event which is not con- nected with the recognized' activities of the college.

My wife may be taking a good job in Turlock California and I am thinking of quiting my general contracting business and moving my bees from Northern Utah. I have around 200 hives and have been working with a commercial beekeeper in utah for a couple of years. I would like to find someone who would be willing to mentor me and teach me the best way to keep bees in California. I'm sure it is a bit different than Utah. I would be willing to trade labor for this help.
I also have contacts that I will be supplying 1000-1500 3lb packages in Utah. These packages were purchased in CA last year and delivered throughout Utah. I would like to work with someone in CA to produce the packages for next year.
I have been doing some queen rearing in Utah with some success and would like to try doing some in CA. I think I could supply several hundred to my Utah contacts. I have sold 20-30 this year already without even trying. I just wanted to see if I could do it and work out some of the bugs and word has got out and hobby beeks want them.
I have been self employed for 20 Yrs and can build about anything out of wood or concrete. I have had employees and have managed other contractors on million$ jobs. I can operate most farm and construction equipment and built a construction business from the ground up so I think I can make a go as a beekeeper I just need to find someone who is willing to help me out and hopefully I can help them out in return.

Review of small press and independent books.
You are not logged in.
As a local small press I guess I should have been on here right from its beginning, but I am having such a problem fitting everything that I have to do each day into the time available.
Hastings Press was born in April 2002 when I needed an imprint to publish two local history books relevant to Hastings. Since then I've published 35 titles by nine authors, from a series of 20-page stapled booklets to luxuriously-produced hardbacks.
I run The Hastings Press all by myself, and life is just a whirlwind of non-stop activity, seven days a week. There are so many different tasks to do, including researching and writing local history, carrying out cover design and typesetting, getting myself prepared and organised to give illustrated talks or university lectures or carry out signings; liaising with local journalists, printers, booksellers and authors, updating the website, dealing with many emails and phone calls each day, writing emails, letters, articles and press releases, dealing with general admin, accounts, invoices and chasing up bad debts, and the daily slog of signing, wrapping and, labelling books ~ oh, and standing in the queue at the Post Office three times a week ~ actually, that's about the only time I have to actually stop and think! And the marketing is literally endless: we must always be looking for new marketing and promoting opportunities or our books will just be forgotten like many thousands of others.
I usually start work between 6am and 7am, though in the summer I'm often at my desk by 5am and yesterday I started work at 3.30am. I try to force myself to finish by 6pm, though I have been known to still be working at 11pm or later, especially if I am redesigning a web page or something, because I absolutely hate ceasing work before a task is finished. When I do get to bed I am ~ unsurprisingly ~ asleep the second my head touches that pillow!
I've been reading Kay's articles and comments about trying to market your own books and agree with everything she says. It has now become extremely easy for anyone to publish a book (look at Lulu, for example). And yet, at the same time, it has never been so hard for the indie writer or publisher to market and sell their books, mainly because of the demise of so many indie bookshops, leaving us at the mercy of the giant chains, who force us into a weak position and make us play by their rules.
In some ways, because "every man and his dog" can now self-publish a book, there is a growing contempt for the self-published author. For example, I have been told a few times, rather abruptly: "sorry, we do not sell self-published books!" Partly because of this attitude, I am obliged to waver between being "the owner of a publishing company" and "a self-publishing author" depending on who I am trying to impress at the time! When I need to look bigger, to make booksellers take me seriously, I present myself as a publisher; when there is an advantage to being self-published, that is emphasised.
One of the things I find myself having to do is to find ways of surmounting people's objections. For example, one local history museum won't stock my latest book because they know from long experience that their visitors won't buy a £20 hardback. So I am producing for that museum a related booklet priced at £1.50, which they have immediately ordered 50 copies of, sight unseen. When a journalist on a local Sussex paper (not Hastings) snootily informed me that the paper did not review what she described as "vanity-published books" I hung up, phoned back immediately, asked to speak to the editor, introduced myself as "the owner of the Hastings Press" and told him one of my authors had a new book out. He requested a copy and they ran a glowing review, yes, a glowing review of the selfsame book the journalist had rejected! Similarly, last month the editor of a Worthing-based magazine told me she does not review any self published work. I ignored this and posted her a copy, and a few days later received an email saying "I love your book" and three ideas of how promote the book in her magazine.
Oh, perhaps I should say at this point that I never pay anyone for advertising or promotion. In my first week of trading six years ago I was persuaded by a slick saleswoman to part with £90 for an advert in a local mag. No sales ensued, and I made a pact with myself never to shell out a penny in future. My advertising "budget", such as it is, goes on flyers, posters and a website.
I've taught absolute beginners at a number of self-publishing seminars, some of whom went on to publish their own books (and many did not, having been put off by hearing the stark reality of the business!) and last year (2007) I won the Writers' News Magazine Self Publisher of the Year Silver Cup, and £1,000 in prize money, after submitting my book "Railwaywomen" to the scrutiny of the judges.
However, I still feel I have much to learn about this business, and I am always keen to hear everyone else's self publishing anecdotes, to put in my tuppence worth of advice if I can, but mainly to increase my knowledge base.
I'm glad to be a part of this forum and will visit when I can.

Hi Helena, you found us! I've had my nose in your 'Notable Sussex Women' for the last couple of weeks and I can't stop quoting bits of it at people. Excellent idea, and I hope it does well. Do feel free to post info about your books on Booksy. I will, when I've finished reading this one.
And - you do have my sympathy. I've been sniffed at by quite a few booksellers who can't tell small press from self-published, which doesn't just annoy me, it annoys my associates who are perfectly respectable and capable self-published authors. I think the shop owners get bullied by big companies and need someone to pass the pain on to!
Hi Kay
Thanks for buying my book.
Nice to see some other poor sod in Hastings is already at her desk before 8am!
I'm sure you and I can swap a lot of information of use to both of us. You have an open invitation to visit me for a long chat. Also, can you email contact details for the man who owned Boldwood Books? Now the shop is shut I don't know where he is and I want to pick his brains!
Next two days totally frantic ~ I have press cuttings to add to my website (hey, I hit the big time last week ~ an article in the Eastbourne Gazette - whoopee!), a talk to write for Saturday and a million other things.
Welcome, Helena. With the hours you work you might as well run a restaurant as well!
Alaric (Borrelpeff)
Like you do!
I should say, on the plus side, I can just take a whole morning, afternoon or even a day off any time I like, without having to ask permission of anyone. The flip side is that when I DO return, the work still has to be done, and a backlog has built up while I was missing, and then I have even more tasks to do when I get back to my desk.
I worked on the railway for 20 years and the beauty of that was that when you went home the railway still carried on in your absence, nothing built up for you to deal with on your return.
Right, I am just about to upload my press cuttings to my website!
Hi Helena,
Met you a couple of times and attended one of your workshops.
Hope we can learn from each other and promote Indie Press and authors.
I knew I'd seen your name before but just assumed you were famous!

... now I realise it's because you came to the seminar. The community centre has now closed so I'm not doing them any more ... by the way.
I did try for your anthology a few years back.
It was to be about the locality, I sent two about Hastings.
Unfortunately all the 'nutters' came out with nonsense and I assumed you had made haste for Beachy Head!
Oh the joy......
Ah yes, must have seen your name on those, too. I had a professor of English Literature, no less, lined up as judge, but the dire standard of the submissions made me too embarrassed to send the entries off to her. About a half a dozen entries were really good, but that wasn't enough to make an anthology so I just filed the lot away (still got them!) and vowed never again to try to discover Hastings's "untapped talent"!
Anyway, glad to meet you again Terry!
To bed now, having worked 16 hours today!
I have to put in a word for Hastings there! There is a heck of a lot of activity in this town, although there are more artists than writers.
A lot of developing writers use competitions to test their progress so you cant expect all entries to be of publishable quality.
Not all writers enter writing competitions, and of those who do, once they know theyre getting somewhere they are going to aim for the national competitions with a CV-enhancing reputation
SO to run a local competition and receive six entries of publishable quality is pretty good going. You cant expect one, medium-sized town to fill an anthology.
Yes, Kay, I know now I was in cloud cuckoo land. That's why I now stick to what I know and keep my nose out of what I don't know :-)
I've made contact with Bestsellers Bookshop at Bexhill after reading that they held a book signing last week. I've planted an idea in his mind about opening a local books section and he sounded quite interested. I'm going to leave a mixed box of books with him on sale or return and see how they go. After Boldwood Books next door closed down, maybe he can take over part of the custom. I asked if you had Paul's email address for me ... do you? I've asked the owner at Bestsellers to email Paul my email so maybe that will come to fruition.
I was up at 3.15am this morning, scanning my press cuttings, uploading them to the website, and making and printing flyers for tomorrow (I am going to Brighton for three book-promotion events, starting off with a book signing session at Borders in Churchill Square.) Got to write notes for a talk I am giving afterwards in Brighton Library, then got to put together a CD of music for my appearance on a desert-island discs type radio programme tomorrow evening. I have to collect 400 booklets from the printer (dragging them home on a sack-trolley!) and stand in the queue at the Post Office for half an hour or so. I'm thinking of getting a folding chair to take with me, maybe a packed lunch, a portable TV ....... (!)
Back to work .....
PS Nice to see Kay up by 6.30am! See, I am not the only hardworking author in Hastings!
I think today was really excessive Kay - 3am! I plan to get a nap in this afternoon once I've got the main things done and my train/taxi journey planned etc for tomorrow. I find if I lay on the sofa and put a video on I am asleep in minutes... zzzzz sometimes I fall asleep here at my desk. Once I fell asleep with my thumb on the space bar and woke with a start, horrified to see a blank Word document in front of me, thinking for one horrible moment that I'd deleted all my work LOL.
I've just chosen the music for my "desert island discs" on Brighton Hospital radio tomorrow ~ it's really hard to choose my 8 faves, because I love so many types of music. I've got it down to 15, putting 8 carefully-chosen, mainly comic songs at the top of the playlist to cheer up all the patients.
Talking about small publishers, I was involved in starting a Community Publishing outfit here in Wigan. I wrote a combined history and how to do it booklet that I still have in my system. If anyone is interested in receiving a freebie e-copy, please let me know.
Me too Michael ~ sounds fascinating! My email is email@example.com
I've just sent the booklet to your address. I hope you find it interesting.
Kay, I don't know where to send one to for you. Please let me have an address.
I've just re-read it and brought it up to date. It's years since I've looked at it, and I was surprised how comprehensive it is, and how much I learned from the experience.

LONDON (AP) — The Church of England has taken a tentative step toward trying again to get its governing General Synod to approve female bishops.
The church said Wednesday the Archbishops' Council agreed this week that the issue needed to be resolved "as a matter of urgency" and should be restarted when the General Synod next meets in July.
A brief statement from the 19-member council did not indicate when another vote could be taken. The council recommended that all the bishops, at their meeting next month, "put in place a clear process for discussions in the new year with a view to bringing legislative proposals before the Synod in July."
Church legislation authorizing female bishops failed last week when laity in the General Synod failed to muster the necessary two-thirds majority, falling just six votes short.
Prime Minister David Cameron has expressed his disappointment and last week urged the church to "get on with it."
He said it was a matter for the church to resolve, but some lawmakers have suggested forcing the issue by abolishing the church's exemption from the law against gender discrimination.
Much of the debate in the General Synod was about provisions for church members who believe only men can be priests and bishops, and do not want to be supervised by a female bishop. A compromise proposal to "respect" the views of opponents was opposed by some people on both sides of the debate.
The Times newspaper has reported that William Fittall, the secretary general of the Synod, has proposed that the next vote be on a simpler measure, which simply says yes or no to allowing women to be consecrated as bishops without any provision for opponents.
The Church of England has refused to confirm or deny that report.

Ambushing the Bandtis
07:00, Fireday, 1 Gozran, 4710 AR, Age of Lost Omens
You spend the better part of the evening and some of the night preparing your ambush for the bandits. Sergei sets up on the southern palisade wall, hidden by the sharpened logs of the wall itself and a stack of crates on the side facing the yard. With the help of a ladder, Tallamor hides on the roof of the stable, behind a jury-rigged platform Oleg nailed into place with some crates and barrels for cover; hopefully, the bandits won't notice it, since it resembles a platform from which the trader might make roof repairs. Aleksandra hides in the stables near the ajar door, sword at the ready, while Castille hides in the storage shed, fully armed and armored.
That morning, when everyone is in place, you wait in the twilight before sunrise with baited breath. A cool mist hangs low in the air, covering those of you outside in a layer of fresh dew. Then, shortly after the sun rises, Sergei hears something: the pounding of hooves on muddy ground. The bandits emerge from the mist: four of them on horseback, leading a pair of horses without riders behind by a lead. They trot right through the open gateway, dismounting. Oleg is waiting for them in the yard, Svetlana safe inside their cabin. The bandits don't even bother drawing weapons. They all seem to be armed with bows and short swords, clad in leather armor with hooded cloaks. Two of the horses are equipped with pack saddles, no doubt to carry off their ill-gotten gains.
One of the bandits, the tallest and most muscular-looking of the bunch, steps forward, giving Oleg a shove.
"You're up bright and early, Oleg. Where's your wife, eh? Getting your 'taxes' ready?"
The goons behind him chuckle stupidly.
Oleg remains stoic, although his ears are burning bright red, even at a distance. The bandits don't seem to have noticed you... Oleg glances at the cracked doors of the stable and storage shed, then at the southern palisade...

Oh boy, did the St. Louis Blues get jobbed by the officials on Friday night.
Captain David Backes was given a match penalty at 9:38 of the third period for a hit to the head of Detroit Red Wings defenseman Kent Huskins, resulting in his ejection and a 5-minute major penalty.
Pavel Datsyuk scored during the ensuing power play for the 4-3 lead; the Wings eventually won the Central Division showdown, 5-3, thanks to a Henrik Zetterberg hat trick.
One tiny, little problem: Replays showed that Backes never made contact with Huskins' head. Backes made contact with the chest.
Good lord what a blown call.
Backes's body is basically square with the numbers on Huskins' arm. A violent hit, to be sure, but he makes more contact with the waist than the head.
It was a brutal call that undeniably changed the dynamics in the third period, especially with the Red Wings have knotted the thing up just over five minutes earlier.
Overall, there were complains from both fan bases throughout the game about officials Ian Walsh and Chris Lee, who called seven minor penalties in the first period. But this penalty on Backes is the kind of over-reactive, hair-trigger call that makes one think that over-protection of the players can sometimes trump good judgement. An embarrassment, given the stakes.
We'll update with comments from the Blues later. Because you know they're coming.
AlsWoodenStick wrote:I know the replay is slow-mo, but if you look at the shot where the ref is behind the Backes hit, he doesn't immediately react to the hit but more to the way Huskins went down, IMO. His head snapped awkwardly & that seemed to tick the arm going up. Idk. Shitty call. (Frank) the Wings, get them next time.

Friday, February 1, 2013
DURHAM — Timing is everything so the seniors on the University of New Hampshire hockey team got together and picked last Saturday before the Merrimack game to hold a rare players-only meeting.
"It was a just a feeling and the importance of the second game of a weekend series especially after getting pounded on at Merrimack," Hardowa said. "It just felt like the right time and something needed to be said."
With 11 games remaining in the regular season, the No. 3/4 Wildcats (15-6-2, 10-5-1 Hockey East) are tied for second with Boston University in the league standings, two points behind Boston College.
Saturday's contest also featured the first career goals by freshmen Dan Correale and Collin MacDonald. They came in the final 1:02 of the second period and extended a 2-1 lead to 4-1. |
