Rated 1 out of 5 by jcurtis Dissappointed
Unfortunately, I had a similar experience than one other reviewer. I went on a Giggle reps recommendation as I loved the fact this could vibrate and was space conscious BUT when I received it the product was defective. Basically, the top chair part would not go in securely to the base. I returned it and received a 2nd chair...this also came back defective for the same reason. I really liked the idea of the chair but I would never feel comfortable putting a baby into something that I've had so many problems with already. I returned the defective chair and am awaiting the Baby Bjorn Baby sitter instead. It may not vibrate, but it is space conscious and the brand reputation speaks for itself.

Rated 1 out of 5 by nmarie Not worth the price
My husband and I registered at giggle because we were looking for quality items that adapt well to city living (smaller spaces). I'm very happy with all of the items our giggle rep helped us choose (uppababy cruz, alma papa crib, chico keyfit car seat, naked bathtub, etc) except for this one. To me, it was not worth the 200 dollar price tag. The batteries ran out quickly, and the upright position (pictured) is too sharp an angle for a newborn to sit comfortably. We ended up using this seat because it was too late to return it, but we had to rock it manually, which to me, defeats the purpose. I would not recommend this item.

Rated 4 out of 5 prefect chair for multiple rooms
love this chair because it is simple and light weight. the gray chair fabric us super soft and snaps/zips off for easy cleaning. this chair is light weight enough to move it from room to room holding it with only one hand. i also love the simplicity of design. the vibrating feature of the chair originates in the seat only, something that i was surprised to find. the rocking feature of this chair is purely manual, so not something you can set the motor to do. one thing that threw me is the harness is kind of difficult to buckle/unbuckle at first. we went into the store to check out the floor model and upon further investigation have heard that it loosens up as it gets broken it. the only down fall to this chair is that the shoulder straps are not permanently secured to the buckle when it is in the unlocked position. so most likely you will need to re-hook the straps to the buckle before you buckle it once you have placed your child in the seat. depending on how squirmy your baby is this could become annoying.

Rated 5 out of 5 by jenny1 perfect for our family who is always on the move
just picked up our coco go the other day because we loved the beautiful design combined with all the functions and versatility. coincidentally we ended up heading upstate to my parents place a few days later, my baby absolutely loved the seat and we didn't want to leave home without it so we easily folded it up and slipped it into the included bag and managed to take it over to my parents' without even noticing we were carrying anything extra. definite must by -- beauty + functionality in one great package!

(2 Questions : 2 Answers)
See what people are asking, and maybe add some answers of your own.
Does it rock by itself? or I have to continuously rock it to keep it going?Answers
CocoGo offers the very best in maximum bouncer function with a minimalist design -- recline it, rock it (baby-powered), motorize it (vibrating/oscillating), collapse it and take it with you on-the-go!Looking for a bouncer that does the rocking for you? Consider 4Moms Mamaroo! It's a larger, full-featured bouncer/swing alternative to the CocoGo and features motorized rocking movements (thanks to micro-robotics!) that soothe your baby based on how real moms and dads move!
Bloom's Coco Go Lounger is made in China. And, always remember, regardless of where they are made, we only sell products we absolutely believe in! We work hard to source only the smartest products throughout the world, and don't believe that some countries should not make products. In fact, we applaud Bloom for their leadership position in responsible manufacturing!1 of 1

Here are some predictions, analysis, and lame jokes about some of MLB's new facesTony Cingrani, SP, CINCingrani is one of my favorite rookies for this season. Now before you go doing backflips down the hallway about this comparison, read everything first. He and Chris Sale have followed a similar career path to date. Both have serious strikeout stuff, with the ability to mow down about a batter an inning.In 2011 both pitchers were relegated to bullpen work, Sale with the White Sox throwing only 71 IP, and Cingrani at Rice throwing only 57 IP plus a few more after being drafted. Both saw their workload increase significantly after being converted to starters last season. Quite frankly, I love Cingrani and think he can put up 80% of what Sale did last season. However, he will probably have a higher WHIP due to his control not being quite where Sale's was last year.Here are a few things to keep in mind before going to get Cingrani:He pitches in Cincinnati, he might give up some homers ...

Pediatric myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle in an infant or young child.
Myocarditis is rare in young children. It is slightly more common in older children and adults. It is often worse in newborns and young infants than in children over age 2.
Most cases in children are caused by a virus that reaches the heart. These can include the influenza (flu) virus, Coxsackie virus, parovirus, and adenovirus. It may also be caused by bacterial infections such as Lyme disease.
Other causes of pediatric myocarditis include:
The heart muscle may be directly damaged by the virus or the bacteria that infect it. The body's immune response can also damage the heart muscle (called the myocardium) in the process of fighting the infection. This can lead to symptoms of heart failure.
Symptoms may be mild at first and hard to detect. However, in newborns and infants, symptoms may sometimes appear suddenly. Symptoms may include:
Symptoms in children over age 2 may also include:
Pediatric myocarditis can be hard to diagnose because the signs and symptoms often mimic those of other heart and lung diseases, or a bad case of the flu.
The doctor may hear a rapid heartbeat or abnormal heart sounds while listening to the child's chest with a stethoscope. A physical exam may detect fluid in the lungs and swelling in the legs in older children.
There may be signs of infection, including fever and rashes.
A chest x-ray can show enlargement (swelling) of the heart. If the health care provider suspects myocarditis based on the exam and chest x-ray, an electrocardiogram may also be done to help make the diagnosis.
Other tests that may be needed include:
There is no cure for myocarditis. The heart muscle inflammation will often go away on its own.
The goal of treatment is to support heart function until the inflammation goes away. Many children with this condition are admitted to a hospital. Activity often needs to be limited while the heart is inflamed because it can strain the heart.
Treatment may include:
Recovery from myocarditis depends on the cause of the problem and the child's overall health. Most children recover completely with proper treatment. However, some may have permanent heart disease.
Newborns have the highest risk for serious disease and complications (including death) due to myocarditis. In rare cases, severe damage to the heart muscle requires a heart transplant.
Call your child's pediatrician if signs or symptoms of this condition occur.
There is no known prevention. However, prompt testing and treatment may reduce the disease risk.

Melinda's Naga Jolokia Hot Sauce
Awesome For "Spicy Hot" Lovers!!!
The taste is great for cooking or to drizzle over a burger to give it an extra zing. It is really hot but you could definitely could taste your food as well. Yum!
June 26, 2013
This stuff is addictive!
When wondering where you might find something always put World Market at the beginning of your list!
I was more than pleasantly surprised when I first tried Melinda's Naga Jolokia Hot Sauce. I soon found that I wasn'tn using it the way I used other hot sauces but was even inventing ways to use it in just about everything I was eating (yes, right off the spoon too). If you like catsup then you will find you like it even more when you mix Melinda's Naga Jolokia Hot Sauce in it. I don't usually use catsup but now I find that I'm always running out of it. I use this hot sauce in many different dips as well. It really does just about make everything better. I still have ideas that I haven't tried yet but I already know they will be great.
This is not just another hot sauce, this stuff actually taste great not just hot.
April 2, 2013
Joyous Hot Sauce
For anyone who enjoys hot sauce this is the best there is. I love spicy food but was not a fan of standard hot sauce. This joy has a nice hot burn but does not have an overbearing flavor. I've had it on salads, pizza, mexican dishes, even in my beer cheese soup and I have not once been disappointed. Buy this!!!

A tradition that feels right at home.
Crisp Siberian Fir needles. Heartening cedarwood. Relaxing sandalwood.
View the Frasier Fir Collection.
Excellent Oil
I put cotton balls in a shallow dish and poor the oil on top and place it in a room, the smell lasts a long time!! We call it our 'poor man diffusers'!!
Was this review helpful? Yes No
Fragrance refresher allows you keep your potpourri alive for months to come. In the past I was throwing out and now I can just add refresher oil. So happy I discovered this.
Pine Lover
The Best Pine Scent Available!
Frasier Fir is the most authentic, natural pine scent that I have found. It's a natural, fresh pine smell which permeates nicely throughout the room and makes the room smell clean and fresh. I use it yearound.
A small dropper in the bottle would make application much easier and allow the user to control the amount dispsensed more easily.
The Essence of the Christmas Season
Frasier Fir has always been my favorite Thymes fragrance, and I can't imagine Christmas in my home without FF candles and potpourri bowls.
Perfect holiday fragrance
Best holiday scent I have ever smelled. When I use this scent I know that Christmas isn't far behind. I love the whole line of Frasier Fir fragrances.

(KMOV) -- An Illinois man who conspired with four others in the manufacturing of between 500 grams and 1.5 kilograms of meth pleaded guilty to charges on Friday.
Stephen A. Smith, 33, of Johnston City, Ill., conspired with Christopher D. Norris and Robert D. Starcher in the manufacture of meth between 2010 and January, 2012 in Williamson, Jackson, and Franklin Counties.
Authorities say Smith was involved in stealing anhydrous ammonia and obtaining pseudoephedrine for use during meth "cooks."
Smith faces from 20 years to life imprisonment, a fine up to $20,000,000 and 10 years' supervised release.
Norris and Starcher have previously been sentenced to prison terms of 216 months and 100 months, respectively, for their role in the meth conspiracy.
Authorities say two other conspirators have pleaded guilty and are awaiting sentencing.
The investigation is ongoing.

Gastrectomy is surgery to remove part or all of the stomach.
The surgery is done while you are under general anesthesia (asleep and pain-free). The surgeon makes a cut in the abdomen and removes all or part of the stomach, depending on the reason for the procedure.
Depending on what part of the stomach was removed, the intestine may need to be re-connected to the remaining stomach (partial gastrectomy) or to the esophagus (total gastrectomy).
Today, some surgeons perform gastrectomy using a camera. The surgery is done with a few small surgical cuts. The advantages of this surgery, which is called laparoscopy, are a faster recovery, less pain, and only a few small cuts.
Gastrectomy is used to treat:
Risks of any anesthesia include:
Risks of any operation include:
Risks of this surgery include:
If you are a smoker, you should stop smoking several weeks before surgery and not start smoking again after surgery. Smoking slows recovery and increases the risk of problems. Tell your doctor or nurse if you need help quitting.
Always tell your doctor or nurse:
During the week before your surgery:
On the day of your surgery:
How well you do after surgery depends on the reason for the surgery and your condition.
After surgery, there may be a tube in your nose which will help keep your stomach empty. It is removed as soon as your bowels are working well.
Most patients have mild discomfort from the surgery. You can easily control this with pain medications.
Patients usually stay in hospital for 6-10 days.
After discharge, you should perform light activity for the first 4 - 6 weeks. If you take narcotic pain medications, you should not drive.

Respiratory acidosis is a condition that occurs when the lungs cannot remove all of the carbon dioxide the body produces. This causes body fluids, especially the blood, to become too acidic.
Ventilatory failure; Respiratory failure; Acidosis - respiratory
Causes of respiratory acidosis include:
Chronic respiratory acidosis occurs over a long period of time. This leads to a stable situation, because the kidneys increase body chemicals, such as bicarbonate, that help restore the body's acid-base balance.
Acute respiratory acidosis is a condition in which carbon dioxide builds up very quickly, before the kidneys can return the body to a state of balance.
Some people with chronic respiratory acidosis get acute respiratory acidosis because an illness makes their condition worse.
Symptoms may include:
The health care provider will perform a physical exam. Tests that may be done include:
Treatment is aimed at the underlying disease, and may include:
How well you do depends on the disease causing the respiratory acidosis.
Severe respiratory acidosis is a medical emergency. Seek immediate medical help if you have symptoms of this condition.
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of lung disease that suddenly get worse.
Do not smoke. Smoking leads to the development of many severe lung diseases that can cause respiratory acidosis.
Losing weight may help prevent respiratory acidosis due to obesity (obesity-hypoventilation syndrome).
Be careful about taking sedating medicines, and never combine these medicines with alcohol.

USB, as I have written about before, continues to be a popular topic and this seems to be on the increase with the emergence of USB 3.0. The new USB spec yields a number of benefits, but the clearest advantage that it has [over USB 2.0] is potential for higher data transfer speed. There are a number of applications where the extra throughput can be used to advantage. An obvious example would be multimedia,

Do you remember when I mentioned that summer is short but sweet where we live. Well, unfortunately autumn is even shorter. My sister lived in Ottawa for awhile and was stunned by the colours of fall. It was beautiful, I hear. The kids and I pretty much just get to see yellow poplar leaves. The reds, oranges and golds of the East are just a rumour here. Oh well, at least we can make whatever colours we like in our crafts!

I was having a good ol' chat with one of my friends about social media. Back in the day when we both went to school, social media wasn't even a twinkle in someone's eye.

Top Firm: Frank Harmon Architect
In his design for the Strickland- Ferris Residence, Frank Harmon, FAIA, created a "house in the trees" by raising it off the ground and glazing the expansive wall that faces the woods.

Harmon's own residence in Raleigh, N.C., is full of glass that opens to views of a rich, urban garden.
The house's cheerful colors complement the lush landscape of zinnias, yuccas, and palms.

The roof of the Taylor House shelters the habitable spaces below like a giant umbrella. It also funnels rain into cisterns for drinking water.
Danny Turner
Frank Harmon
Frank Harmon has won his fair share of accolades for design over the years. But no occasion evoked such a pointed reaction to his work as the judging of the entries for AIA North Carolina in 1999, when Harmon swept the competition by winning three out of four Honor Awards in his home state. On that day awards juror Max Protetch, the New York gallery owner, opened the concealed identification tucked into the submissions for three very accomplished, but very different, buildings by Harmon—and was stunned to learn of their common authorship. "I don't who this guy is," Protetch reputedly said, "but he's either a genius or a schizophrenic."
Credit: Danny Turner
By accepting such simple truths, Harmon—an affable teacher-practitioner—has made his own way through a career that took many turns early on. Over time, he found his comfort zone in a modernism that eschews self-reference—and instead draws its strength from a responsiveness to the site and client and a fondness for the sensual characteristics of light, materials, and color. In recognition of the standard of excellence Harmon has set and maintained, Frank Harmon Architect, Raleigh, N.C., is the residential architect Firm of the Year for 2005.
Like many architects, Harmon started his practice with a desire to build big and "important" buildings. But he made a decision about 12 years ago to focus more on houses. "Up until then, my firm had been doing mostly office buildings, museums, and galleries. At the time, we had one or two very large projects. I woke up one morning and thought, 'Gosh, if one of those projects went away, our firm would be in big trouble.' That's the way that I began to develop more small projects. It's a way that we could work on design ideas at a smaller scale that would be applicable to larger buildings as well."
Scattered around an industrial loft building that once housed electrical hardware, Harmon and his staff of five work in a casual setting that very much resembles a university architecture studio. The firm has been as large as 10, but Harmon says he likes the present size because it allows him more involvement. His wife, Judy, runs her landscape architecture practice under the same roof, working off to one side near the plate-glass storefront.
"It's very important that we all work in one room," says Harmon, who used to organize his practice like the mammoth New York firm where he once worked. But one day while doing studio crits at nearby North Carolina State University, he realized he could train better architects and cultivate a more productive atmosphere if he gave his employees greater responsibility for their projects. The system has worked well: "I know what's going on with everybody, they know what's going on with everybody, and we all have mutual interaction," he says.
Residential projects comprise between one-third and two-thirds of the workload in Harmon's office. Some are single-family houses; others are modest additions. But they all share an instinctive relationship to their natural surroundings. "There is a strong relationship between the indoors and the outdoors," he says. "The craft of how they are made and finished is very evident. The materials are usually natural and things you would want to touch. And they are usually colorful—I love to use color."
Born in Georgia, Harmon was still a child when his family moved to North Carolina. It was a sizable family—four kids in a small house with a demanding mother watching over the brood. "As a result, I spent a lot of time out of doors," Harmon says. "It was easier for me to be in the woods following the streams."
On the day he discovered architecture, Harmon was sitting in his eighth grade English class gazing across the street. "I saw this wonderful old house—one of those big wood-frame houses with porches all around it. And I remember wondering, 'How did a house like that get built?'" Soon he learned about the existence of architects, and decided that it was the path he would follow. It wasn't the easiest thing, he says. His mother wanted him to be a doctor.
When the time came, Harmon enrolled in the design school at N.C. State. After two years, he moved to London to study at the Architectural Association School of Architecture, where he encountered a different approach to architecture. The faculty—including personalities such as James Stirling, Nikolaus Pevsner, and Kenneth Frampton—were an inspiring lot. "The thing about the AA was that everybody who taught there was an architect," he says. "That made the difference for me, as opposed to most American universities, where the teachers are academics. I loved that, because I'm an architect who likes the real making of things."

Building Seagram, and the Art of Patronage
Philip Johnson, Ludwig Mies van Der Rohe, and Phyllis Lambert discuss the Seagram in front of an image of the building model soon after she helped the architects win the commission in 1955.
Building Seagram

A spread from Building Seagram. In the photo on the right page, Mies and other building committee members visit the site in July 1956 as it was under construction.
In the summer of 1954, a 27-year-old aspiring artist from Montreal sat down in her Paris apartment to type out a letter to her father. Her name was Phyllis Lambert. Her father was Samuel Bronfman, founder of the giant liquor company Joseph E. Seagram & Sons.
Filling eight single-spaced pages, the letter was annotated in the margins with handwritten corrections, additions, and architectural sketches. It is reproduced in full as an appendix to a new book by Lambert, Hon. FAIA, which is called, simply, Building Seagram, published by Yale University Press in April.
In the letter, she tries to convince her father that he is about to make a monumental mistake—that his plan to build a corporate headquarters for his company at Park Avenue between 52nd and 53rd streets in Manhattan is insufficiently ambitious, and that he ought to abandon it immediately. The proposed scheme, a copy of which Bronfman had mailed to his daughter a few weeks earlier, called for a 34-story tower in a style that he referred to proudly as "Renaissance Modernized." It was to be designed by the Los Angeles–based firm Pereira and Luckman.
"This letter starts with one word repeated very emphatically NO NO NO NO NO," Lambert wrote. "I am very disturbed and find nothing whatsoever commendable in this preliminary-as-it-may-be plan for a Seagram's building."
After criticizing the historical references in the proposed building as trite and saccharine ("you can't modernize the Renaissance—you can only learn from it"), Lambert, the second-oldest of Bronfman's four children, appealed to her father's vanity and sense of his own legacy.
"You must put up a building which expresses the best of the society in which you live, and at the same time your hopes for the betterment of this society," she wrote. "You have a great responsibility and your building is not only for the people of your companies, it is much more for all people, in New York and the rest of the world."
Lambert, who would go on to help found the Canadian Centre for Architecture in 1979, donating 750,000 shares of Seagram stock to finance it, was not close to Bronfman. In the book she refers to him as "SB" to suggest some of that distance.
"My contact with my father up to 1954 had been minimal," she writes. "He considered only his sons to be in the line of business succession, and as a child with a strong aversion to all talk about business and money, I was a self-imposed outsider, immersed in art, committed to sculpture by the age of nine, constantly daydreaming about becoming an independent artist."
About her childhood, she adds, "My father was for all intents and purposes physically absent; his strong personality and fierce temper terrified his children."
Their relationship had begun to thaw, however, by the time Lambert sat down to write to him about the Park Avenue tower. Earlier in 1954 she had taken her father to Rome to see some of the city's great landmarks, a trip that was also part of her own effort to study architectural history first-hand. And something in the letter struck a chord—or a nerve—with her father. After receiving it he immediately summoned her back to New York.

It has been reported in television program listing that the supernatural TV anime series, BLEACH will be ending it's seven year run at japan's TV-Tokyo. The last episode will air March 27th, 6 PM.
When a Twitter follower of Bleach animation director Hiroki Takagi sent him an image of the listings, Takagi responded by saying, "So quick. I was going to paste it… /(^o^)\"
The BLEACH anime series is currently on their 16th season, also known as the Lost Substitute Shinigami arc. It is set seventeen months after the teenager Ichigo Kurosaki lost his Soul Reaper powers and meets a man known as Kugō Ginjō who proposes him to recover them.
I'm not sure If you guys heard about the news, just here to let you guys know, If there's anyone here still watching the anime. Of course I'm not, but I still think Bleach is cool, just too many fillers for me. I'm over a hundred episodes behind the anime, and by around the 160's I quit watching anymore episodes. Spoiler is in the quotes for those who probably haven't caught up to this Arc.

Does everything have to have a conspiracy behind it? Well, here it does, obviously.
Anyone figure out which important folk were on the plane? Or are our super sleuths still at their yoga classes?
No VIP on the plane. It's not for murder but to justify coming airplane accident in their plan. Read my explanation.
You can see from flight track that perpetrator tried to eluce the land to avoid being detected by ground radar and flied to South Indian Ocean, make it a mystery missing so they could make up story later whatever they want to, also to justify the planned airplane accident in their coming plot.
822. Malaysia airliner missing was created by the Feds (3/20/2014)
It was done to justify the coming airplane's incident.
In my story, to frame me in fake money case, the Feds have to eliminate my relatives – they are all witnesses. In recent three years, each time the Feds planned a case, they arranged a cruise tour trip for my relatives. See "811. Cruise – a murder trap (1/18/2014)". In that article, I revealed that each time for a trip, the Feds used to create an incident in advance – either an "engine room fire" in a cruise or a "boat sinking" or "food poisoning" to cover up the coming case as a common one – not particularly ralated to any individual person. So was this Malaysia Airliner's accident.
Malaysia Airline MH370 disappeared on March 8. I think it was used to justify the coming airplane accident in later March. My wife said she was going to Philippine via Shanghai at the end of this month. This means the Feds has plotted a case in late March and arrange her a South East Asia air trip. My other relatives could be arranged in trip too at that time. Since they are all recruited by the Feds, they'll have to follow the order of the Feds when it suddenly gives one.
That was why Malaysia airline was chosen. 1. Most victims are Chinese ethnic like my wife's (or my rlatives') 2. It was South East airline where my wife will fly.
I predict the missing plane crashed somewhere far away in deep south India ocean. The purpose is to eliminate any possible trace of a plot. That's why MH370 changed its way dramatically to the west and tried to avoid any detection from the ground. Watch the map.
In turning point, north is Vietnam; east is Philippine; South is Malaysia and Indonesia. To west is the shortest way to Indian Ocean.
Forget those hijacker or suicide news. They are used to distract your views and to delay the searches. No hijackers or suicides have such intention to play hide and seek game at this time.
How could they do this? I allege it was the same way they did in 911 attack. Everyone knows the drone is very popular today. It's a skilled technique to pilot a plane with set up computer data. (or even by remote control) With pre-set computer data, at the turning point, the auto pilot system took over the control of the plane. The pilot can do nothing with it even if they were alive at the time.

*���' � r~- COLLEGE VOL. XXIV, No. 22 BRYN MAWR AND WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20, 1938 Copyright TRUSTEES OF BRYN MAWR COLLEGE. 1938 PRICE 10 CENTS Laski Stigmatizes English Government As Anti-Democratic Popular Control is Threatened By Reactionary Legislation t Against Labor SOCIALISTS HOPE FOR PEACEFUL REVOLUTION Goodhart, April 14.�Speaking on The British Labor Party and De- mocracy, Mr. Harold Laski, of the University of London, declared that Labor will utilize the machinery of democratic government as long as this means is open to hS True de- mocracy can only survive if all parties are willing to abide by the declared will of the people. If the constitutional machinery is deliberately altered so as to restrict Labor, or if "attempts are made to sabotage the declared will of the peo- ple, it will be the duty of a labor government to maintain its authority, even to the-extent of suspending nor- mal constitutional processes." Looking at England today, said Mr. Laski, there is reason to doubt that the Conservative party would respect the fundamental rules of democracy if- a Labor government came into " power. He believes that the present government is more allied in sym- pathy and purposes with Germany and Italy than with the democracies which are struggling all over Europe. Mr. Laski cited some of the evi- dence for his belief that the Con- servative and Liberal parties are seek- ing to restrict democracy. The Trades Disputes Act of 1927 is a serious blow to the organizing power of unions, particularly in the political field. Also, since 1919 many convic- tions for "incitement to riot" have been obtained on the weakest evi- dence. It is ^notable that sentences inflicted on leftists have been far more severe than those on British fascists. Continued on Page Three Council Hears Petition For Senior Automobiles Plans to Lengthen College Year Suggested at Meeting Brand Blanshard Speaks For Collective Security Helps Formulate College Peace Day Resolutions Common Room, April 19.�Collective security is the only means of pre- venting another general war within the next few months or years, stated Dr. Brand Blanshard, head of the De- partment of Philosophy at Swarth- more. He spoke at a joint meeting sponsored by the Peace Council, the International Club-and the A. S. U. No other method, Dr. Blanshard be- lieves, will be effective in "slowing down the general acceleration towards a general conflagation." Besides col- In the general discussion of the College Council, the two major prob- lems were: the question of a longer college year, and a senior petition for permission to have automobiles. After the discussion, Miss Park showed the members of the Council the archi- tect's sketches for the new Library Wing. Miss Howe said that the bedroom furniture for Rhoads North and South has been generally approved, since she has not yet heard any ad- verse criticism. A sample bureau, desk and chair can be seen in the downstairs stage dressing-room in Goodhart. One of the windows of the Science Building bas been painted greyish-white to blend with the color of the stone, and to give an idea of the possible total effect. The archi- tects-plan was to have all the win- dows this color, but many people like the effect of brightness given by the red frames. In connection with the question of a longer college year, it was suggested that Commencement Week be short- ened to give students the few extra days before Commencement. Miss Schenck thought that what they need- ed was a longer period in which to organize material. Miss Ward's plan was to shorten the examination period to one week; the first week of the ordinary two week period would then be used to study for examinations, and in the case of the seniors, as a reading period. Mary Sands brought up the senior petition for cars, as a means of re- laxation in times of stress. Miss Park gave her reasons against this: that such a privilege should extend to all the undergraduates and not a hier- archical few, and that parking prob- lems would therefore become difficult; that the country surrounding Bryn Mawr is dangerous for driving be- cause it has much of the traffic and none of the police protection of a city; finally, that the free use of cars by students in colleges seemed every- where to create a kind of restlessness which is a poor background for the semi-professional work thejr do. Bryn Mawr in its short year asks its stu- dents to work fairly hard and would like to begin there a kind of life which makes that work, possible. Miss Petts suggested that the Bryn Mawr barn is an excellent place to relax and thsnt is an ideal distance for a healthy walk or bicycle ride. She also promised that the holes in the roof Continued on Page Four ANNUAL GERMAN DAY COLLEGE CALENDAR Saturday, Ajrril 23.�Camera Club Exhibit. Common Room. Intercollegiate German evening.

Pacifism is advocated by a large and increasing group, both in Eng- land and the United* States, ft Se- lieves first, that "peaceful persuasion" is the only course compatible with Christianity; secondly, that the only way to appeal to a reasonable human being is by reason; thirdly, that pacifism has worked when it has been employed, as it was by Gandhi in India and by the Jews in the Roman Empire. In nine cases out of ten, Dr. Blan- shard admits, this point-of-view is the sound one. In the tenth case, however, pacifism is a complete failure, and so cannot be generally accepted. He pointed out that reason can succeed only when the appeal can be made to a rational being, not to "homicidal maniacs or sadists," while the cleansing of the" Temple and the. denunciation of the Pharisees seem to refute the idea that Jesus was a pacifist. As for the "success" of pa- cifism, there are hundreds of inA stances in history of non-resisting movements or individuals crushed by force, as were the Protestants in Spain. The second method generally urged Continued on Pace Five Social Change Caused Agrarian Revolution Enclosures Only Minor Cause Of Breakdown of Mediaeval Economy, Says Dr. Gay Goodhart, April 18.�In his third lecture on the Economic History of England during the Renaissance, Dr. Gay discussed how the changes in the agrarian structure were affected by the enclosure movement and by the new position of the social classes. The breaking down of the old manorial system, he explained, caused a much more fundamental and widespread change than did the enclosure system, notable only in a relatively small part of England. Since this revolution in the posi- tions of social classes began early in the fifteenth century, the great price rise of the next century should only be considered an accelerating force to the movement's growth. The chief characteristic of the Eng- lish movement was the development of a new attitude. Out of the medieval, self-sufficient, economic communities, based on the principle that every man should have equal opportunities, grew HERE the sixteenth'cetrhir/ .r>M*eteI -so- ciety. Besides this break from per- Representatives from seven colleges will gather at Bryn Mawr on April 23 for the annual Intercollegiate Ger- man 6ay? The college is' invited * to a program including plays, dialogues, folk dances, songs and skits, to be given in Goodhart Hall at 8 p.-m. Admission is free. The program was arranged by Mary Howe DeWolf, '38, president, and Ruth Mary Penfield, '40, secretary of the Bryn Mawr German Club. Be- tween the performances on the stage, Dr. Ernst Feise, of Johns Hopkins, will lead general singing of German songs for which Gordon Grosvenor, '39, will play the piano. Although they are not presenting a part of the entertainment, members of the Dela- ware College for Women will attend. The only clue to Swarthmore's-per- formance is that they have asked to have a piano on the stage for Wedekind's Der Kammersdnger. With "the co-operation of two men from Johns Hopkins, Goucher will give three short dialogues by Morike, Flex and Goethe, and also a part of Schneewittchen, which, from their re- quest for seven chairs, cups, knives, forks and spoons, promises to be Snow White. Continued on Pasre Three USERS AND CREATORS BATTLE OVER DETAILS sonal relationships, the period is also marked by the technological change from the open field to the enclosure system. But, Dr. Gay emphasized, the move- ment toward agrarian change was general and tendencies similar to \he English struggle can be found in the history of the continent. By the late fourteenth or early fifteenth century, landowners everywhere demanded a freer hand with their tenants and wished to turn services and payments in kind to cash. This was particularly true in the great grain section of northwestern Germany. The serfs there were freed against their will and their strips of land consolidated, although n�� en- closed as in England. Freeholders then obtained these strips through hereditary leases. By the sixteenth century, prices rose, and the rents, previously con- sidered as economically fair, decreased in actual value. Any attempt to in- crease the rents, however, met with the strong opposition of the tenants who were dsuatty backed by the courts. The reason for this court backing lies in the refusal of the landlords to pay taxes. Under the old manorial Continued on rage Six (The following article is an extract from Miss Park's communication to the May Alumnae Bulletin in the new Library Wing.) Taylor and Goodhart Halls and the M. Carey Thomas Library are composite buildings, each serving under one roof several ends. The li- brary in particular not only looks after Bryn Mawr's books, but supplies the large working room for under- graduates, the seminaries for gradu- ates, arid the offices for the faculty; that is, it fulfills these three functions as far as its space allows. For lack of space, fifteen thousand volumes are housed on the third floor of Taylor, and the scenic libraries in Dalton. At least one seminary must be shared inconveniently by two departments; the number of offices is far short of the number of the faculty who need them, and if the one hundred addi- tional undergraduates are to ask even occasionally for space in the reading room they will, to be plain spoken, not find it. But, as all Bryn Mawr gradu- ates know, across the back cloister wall toward Rockefeller the uncut stones have always silently bespoken additions to all these resources. However, our ambitions have soared higher than the fulfilling of these needs, and in 1935 the board asked the architect, Mr,- Sydney E. Martin, to draw plans for a building completing the present resources of the library and, besides, housing adequately and acceptably the two departments of Art and Archaeology which have done their work in crowding and discom- fort. These plans were drawn. Stacks in the basement, more stacks with a few seminaries and offices on the first floor, more offices and special stacks for the tfbraries of the Art and Archaeology Departments on the sec- ond, the two departments' seminaries, offices, lecture rooms and library on the third floor, and on the fourth three exhibition rooms for permanent or temporary use. The cost of this building was esti- mated to be about $350,000. Toward this sum out of our Million Dollar Gift we counted $180,000, approxi- mately $100,000 from the gift of Dr. and Mrs. Woodward in memory of Quita Woodward, 1932, $50,000 given in honor of President Thomas by Ella Riegel, 1889, $10,000 from Mr. and Mrs. Bigelow in memory of Elizabeth Bigelow, 1930, and a *n$Mh|r of smaller but especially designated gif,ts. Miss Riegel's later bequest to Bryn Mawr, though by its terms it could not supply funds for the con- sttttction 9{ the building, �ould ftro^ vide for its maintenance. So by the difference between the cost of the building and the money in our.treas- ury we hung between desire and ac- complishment. We devised unsatis- factory plans to meet the dilemma� the completion, for instance, of the hb'alement and the first floor, or the erection of the shell of the whole building with, we feared, an all too gradual progress toward the finishing of the interior. Continued on Page Three Goodhart Hall, Apiil 14.�In chapel Miss Park outlined the somewhat changed plans for the new Library Wing which is to be started this spring. The addition will be smaller than formerly reckoned and the Art and Archaeology Departments will have temporary quarters on the sec- ond floor until a separate building can be erected for them on the green across the street from Rockefeller. Means for raising funds for this new building are already under discussion. The former plan for the Library was to add a large wing which would provide more room for books, more offices and a permanent place for the departments of Art and Archaeology. However, an addition which would fulfil all these requirements could not be covered by the 180,000 dollars allotted to this purpose by the mil- lion dollar drive. With this in mind, Miss Park devised the present plan which has been adopted. The new wing is to be added to the south end of the cloister. The base- ment and first floor include stacks, cloak rooms, which will be installed later, and a large reading room. Re- movable partitions are being put into the second flo6r which will, provide Art and Archaeology lecture rooms, offices and studios. When these de- partments move out, the partitions may be removed and the space used for other purposes. The third floor has a long gallery, receiving only north light, for picture exhibitions. Underground passages connect the - basement of the wing to the rest of the Library. At the southwest cor- ner the now unused door will be opened up to provide a main entrance. Just inside this entrance the large reading room will be placed. This room is to be a memorial to Quita Woodward whose parents contributed largely to the fund for the building. Residents of the new hall will have access to the Library through two doors on the south end of the wing, which will save them many a step. Miss Reed is overjoyed at the increase in reading matter this addition will allow. She estimates a jump in our book capacity from 56,000 to 70,000 volumes. /� Meanwhile, the battle between the Plan Committee appointed by Miss Park and Thomas Martin, the archi: tect, is in progress.
