The New Street Types of New York - Alice Austen House Through September 29, 2013 - Staten Island
Alice Austen?s groundbreaking portfolio ?Street Types of New York? from 1894, marks her as one of the earliest female street photographers who captured the changing face of the city?s working class just before the turn of the century. Today a new generation of photographers continues her legacy of documenting the ever-changing city. This exhibition includes work by: Alice Austen, Chris Arnade, Alice Attie, Dmitry Gudkov, Peter Funch, Andy Jones, Wayne Lawrence, Erica McDonald, Greg Miller, Christina Paige, Susanna Ray, Richard Renaldi, Ruddy Roye, Geordie Wood, and AnRong Xu. The New Street Types draws connections from early street portraiture like that of Alice Austen (1866-1952) to contemporary image-makers. The artists selected for the exhibition work in a similar style to Austen, often employing large format photography to create portraits of New York City?s diverse communities and subcultures ? including the outer fringes of the expanding city like the Rockaways and Orchard Beach. In addition to the contemporary images, Alice Austen?s rare and fascinating ?Street Types? portfolio, produced c.1896 by the Albertype Company, will be on display. The Alice Austen House is open Tuesday-Sunday 11am-5pm and is handicap accessible.

In the fourth of the Anna Howard Shaw series on Social Security in an Expanding Economy, Dr. Eveline M. Burns expanded her lecture of last week on Social Security in the Post-war World and began the top- ic of Planning for Health Services. Recapitulating the argument of last week, Mrs. Burns used the ideal situation of a rational and in- telligent Congress asking_a social economist to devise a social sys- tem which has real security for all, which does not interfere to the least possible extent with other individual freedoms and which will include as many desirable ec- onomic by-products as possible.

Miss <?* Goodhart, November 2. "Democ- racy is a matter of personality and environment, not a matter of birthplace," declared Mr. Lester Granger, executive secretary of the Urban League, in a talk on Racial Hazards to Domestic Peace, at this year's fourth war assem- bly. Democrats Stressing the fact that not all Americans are wholehearted Dem- ocrats, Mr. Granger pointed out that many of our institutions are the very antithesis of democracy, and many of our people favor only a partial, controlled democracy. It is this kind of thinking that sets up a system of bitter competition for personal security in which min- ority groups are bound to suffer, he said. Racial discrimination is not an isolated phenomenon, but an integral part of our present fabric �f existence. "The idea of caste comes to us along with our notions of economic security, political ideals, and so on," the speaker ob- served. When the race angle is removed from our society, many other evils will fall with It. Race Riots Mr. Granger cited instances of race riots because of competition for jobs after the last war, and discriminatory practices during this one. He warned that even more serious difficulties will de- velop if nothing is done to check the hatred of whites for negroes and the suspicion of negroes to- ward whites. Negro Veterans Our dealings with negro veter- ans will be crucial. The question is whether they shall be shunted back into Jim Crow jobs and lives, as they were in 1919, often barred from veterans organizations like the American Legion, and denied a fair chance for employment, loans, decent homes or farms. In that case, "we will have a period of in- tense racial animosity," which will seriously hamper our internation- Continued on Pagre 4 Mrs. Collins Appoints Eight Teams to Help In United War Chest The United War Chest drive for 1944 officially opened on campus last week and will continue until November 17th. While all under- graduates contributed to the War Chest through the Activities Drive, various teams have been appointed to solicit contributions from the faculty, the graduate students, the maids and porters and the staff. Acting as general chairman of the Drive is Mrs. Chadwick-Col- lins, appointed by President Mc- Bride, and assisted by Miss Julia Frick. Heading the faculty team is Mr. Nahm, appointed also by Miss McBride, on the vote of the faculty. His team consists of Miss Marti, Miss Lehr, Mr. Her- ben, and Mr. Wells. Captains of other teams have been appointed by Mrs. Chadwick- Collins, and they in turn choose their team members. The gradu- ate students, who were the first to register a 100% contribution in last year's drive, are headed by Josephine Burroughs, while Mar- ion Moise '47 supervises the . un- dergraduate contribution through the Activities Drive. Heading the committee for the Maids and Porters is Miss Howe, who has chosen for her committee the same captains who all had 100% records last year. The Maids and Porters also had a 100% contribution the preceding year and in addition were the first group to finish. The team con- sists of Louis White�Denbigh, Evelyn Johnson�Marion, Louise Jones and Minnie Newton�Pem- broke, Grace Turner and Ellen Widgeon�Radnor, Molly Burgess and Rebecca Henry�Rhoads, Rob- ert Outen and Marguerite Wil- Contlnued on Pace 4 Diana Lynn, portrayer of Emily Kimbrough in Our Hearts Were Young and Gay, was presented to some thirty students at a dinner in the Deanery given by Mrs. Chadwick-Collins. Coming to Philadelphia for the premiere of Our Hearts, where she will make a personal appearance with Emily Kimbrough at the Al- dine Theatre, Miss Lynn was able to get only a flying glance at the campus, through the 6:30 dusk. She claimed some familiarity with the campus, however, since several small and-carefully reproduced sets of places on campus, such as the Gym and thelnfirmary, were used in filming theV opening sequences of the movie, but were greatly cut for the final form. Having lunch today in Pembroke, Miss Lynn was undoubtedly exposed to more of the Bryn Mawr atmosphere as well as getting a closer view of the actual cloistering walls. Exactly how Diana Lynn became the Emily Kimbrough of Our Hearts is a typical Hollywood story. Having played practically everyone's brat sister, in such pic- tures as The Major and the Minor and The Miracle of Morgan's Creek, and having been in evidence on the Paramount lot since the age of thirteen, Miss Lynn regis- tered intense interest when her Continued on Page 3 Calendar Thursday, Nov. 9 Spanish Club Movies, Common Room, 4:00.

Second Set of Plays Lacks Spark of Friday Night Performances by Robin Brooks '46 Goodhart, November 4. The Freshmen Plays on Saturday did not have the spark that character- ized the Friday night perform- ances. There were, however, in the three presentations, moments of very creditable acting. Rockefeller's The Tenth Word by Florence Ryerson and Colin Clement, very suitably adapted to the time and place of performance, was directed by Kitty Rand '45, and Ada Klein '48. The first scene contrasted perhaps more sharply than was intended with scene two due to the rather "corny" and rep- etitious lines of the latter. Outstanding in scene one was Kathryn Landreth as Mistress Seraphina Darcy, rendering the prudish and antiquated headmis- tress with a convincing conception of her part. In scene two, Nan Piker as Pam, the distraught girl who could not decide whether to follow her heart or her mind, dis- played occasional moments of fair sensitivity for her role. The supporting cast as a whole was a little too reserved in its ac- tions, yet considering the fact that Rock was forced to change its play at the eleventh hour, it gave an admirable performance. Particu- lar credit should go to Anne Henry for the delightful costumes in the first scene. Te Pern East's The Lady Shows Her Medals by James Barrie, di- rected by Doreen Hurwitz '47, and Isabel Cameron '48, goes credit for the best all-around acting of the evening. Although* her role was comparatively small, Shirley Wood as Mrs. Haggerty, never stepped out of the character of the sloven- ly and defensive washerwoman for a moment. Her rendering of the line "the 'eart's warm though it may not be gold-tipped," brought forth the only spontaneous ap- plause of the evening, and possibly if she had raised her voice slight- ly higher there would have been more of the same, at other times. Continued on page S Uniformly High Acting Quality Distinguishes First Group Of Hall Plays by April Oursler '46 Goodhart .November 3. A uni- formly high quality of acting, un- usual in Freshman plays, distin- guished the first group of plays given on Friday night! Trifles, by Susan Glaspell, en- acted by the Rhoads Freshmen, was by far the best production of the evening. Careful direction, by Patricia Acheson '46, and a sense of timing and feeling for the parts, gave the performance a nearly professional finish. Sylvia Stallings, as Mrs. Hale, gave what was perhaps the most sensitive'' interpretation in the play, with Jessica Levy running a close second as Mr. Hale. Both players seemed completely absorb- ed by their parts, maintaining a naturalness and ease of stage ac- tion throughout, with an emotion in their acting which alone could have carried the play. They were, however, given very real support in the more subordin- ate roles, particularly by Patricia Hochschild's portrayal of Mrs. Peters. Coordination of setting and make-up and direction, com- bined with a thorough sympathy with the play on the part of all concerned gave it the excellence which merited the award of the plaque. Merion's The Birthday of the Infanta, by Oscar Wilde, seemed Rhoads' only serious challenger of the evening. Ably directed by Es- telle Morrison '45, the Merion pro- duction relied too much, however, on individual excellence than the requisite fantasy atmosphere avail- able only through a unified per- formance. Carol McGovern gave a start- lingly skillful interpretation of the extremely difficult role of the Phantastic. The expressiveness of her pantomime as well as her lines showed an ability to cope with the challenging part which far exceeds average campus talent. Indra Kirpalani evidenced poise and charm in the role of the In- fanta, and both Bettina Kleupfel Continued on Ptge i Election Night Hardly Conclusive to Study As ConsoIation-for-Dewey Parties Prevail by Patricia Platt '45 Election night was not an aus- picious one for study, what with all-night vigils, parties, and a lit- tle mad scrambling. The most vio- lent case on record occurred short- ly before midnight when barefoot students were spied trying to at- tach a picture of Dewey to Taylor. This meant that the Democrats had to try to get Roosevelt onto the library, without success. The latest returns have it that Taylor was adorned with placards but no pic- tures. A few hardy souls in Pern East were planning to stage a slumber party with" mattresses on the floor and radios blaring. Towards the end of the evening, however, a consolation-for-Dewey party took over, while Pern West quietly went to bed. In Merion, where the ra- dio is out of order, rooters had to retire to their rooms, but not be- fore decorating the showcase with 266 Dewey buttons (the requisite number of electoral votes), care- fully arrayed on chair arms, around the edges of the rug, and in their hero's initials, T. E. D. Even choir practice fell victim to the spirit of the moment, when Miss Cook, valiantly enjoining the members to count their beats, found herself saying "count your votes." There was nothing to do but suggest that they adjohgn and listen to the election returnsS Rhoads indulged in a celebration which showed that they have ab- andoned the "above it all" attitude - - namely a "suppressed desire" party. Upper classmen cavorted masquerading as their hidden yearnings, while the Freshmen, their hostesses, took advantage of the occasion to slip into their eld- ers' rooms, don their characteris- tic clothes, and confront them with their true selves. The^party reach- ed its height with two new games; "pin the cigarette on Roosevelt," and "pin the mustache on Dewey."

Boehner on Obama quip: 'So much for the charm offensive'
POSTED: Wednesday, March 20, 2013 - 2:00pm
UPDATED: Wednesday, March 20, 2013 - 2:04pm
CNN — President Barack Obama may be joking about enjoying his break from congressional gridlock, but House Speaker John Boehner says it's just a sign of mutual endearment.
"I'd rather be heckled than ignored. Or as I like to say, you only tease the ones you love," Boehner told CNN's Jake Tapper in an interview set to air Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. on "The Lead."
Earlier in the day, Obama quipped that "It's good to get away from Congress" as he deplaned in Tel Aviv, the first stop on his Mideast trip. The joke elicited a big laugh from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was greeting Obama at the airport.
"So much for the charm offensive," Boehner joked Wednesday, referring to the recent outreach from Obama to members of Congress as they continue to haggle over spending cuts and taxes.
Boehner said the comment wouldn't have any real impact on the relationship between lawmakers and the president.
"The president's meeting with the president of Israel. He's got his legislative issues, the president's got his. Comes with the territory," Boehner said.

This shows how social media affects the society such as in school classrooms and how it is important to have some life in social media. I feel that social media has become a big part in this world that social media can bring quite a number of positive impacts and how it can impact a community, or rather a class. I think social media's impact on societies and people will increase both positively and negatively and there is no sign of decrease in usage social media.

Ozzy Osbourne is one of the most iconic figures in the history of rock & roll. As the lead singer of Black Sabbath, Ozzy, along with Tommy Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward, were the progenitors of heavy metal, paving the way for bands like Hatebreed. In 1996, Ozzy started OzzFest and gave newer bands like Incubus and Lordi, exposure to a massive metal audience of Ozzy devotees. More recently, Ozzy and his family starred in the television reality show, The Osbournes.
As a solo artist, Osbourne has sold over 27 million albums in the US and 50 million worldwide. It is said Ozzy is one of the greatest stars ever to come out of working-class England, and in 2007 a bronze star with his name was placed on Broad Street in his home city of Birmingham. Ozzy has since stated that this honor meant more to him than any other in his long and distinguished career.

This where the flash should stand...
Breguet acquires a document bearing essential testimony to watchmaking history
29/06/2010Nicolas G. Hayek, President and CEO of Montres Breguet, recently acquired a crucial document in the history of watchmaking for the record sum of 2.3 million Swiss francs. This purchase of the memoirs of the illustrious watchmaker A.-L. Breguet was made at an auction organised by Patrizzi & Co on May 7th 2010.
A decade or so before his death, Breguet began working with his staff members on writing long texts. He planned to publish a treatise that would provide an account of his career as well as a methodical review of his inventions. In it he would write about his entire body of work, from the simplest to the most complicated watches, from the famous Souscription model to the Tourbillon, as well as the first self-winding perpétuelle watches, of his work on escapements, and many other secrets. The language was to be simple and didactic; Breguet wished to be understood by as many people as possible and to inspire new vocations…
When he passed away in 1823, the highly ambitious endeavour was unfinished; the manuscript remained as it was and appeared to vanish. While some chapters were barely roughed out, others had reached an extremely advanced state of drafting and were almost ready to be published; these are the chapters that were found again in the spring of 2010.
When put up for auction, the work comprised seven separate lots. Frenzied bidding took the first lot to four times its initial estimate, and the same thing occurred with each of the other lots. Finally, in accordance with the provisions of Swiss law, the entire of documents was regrouped into a single lot and finally sold to the Breguet Museum after a fierce fight with various institutions and private collections.
The 7 lots comprised the following manuscripts:
- The history of Breguet and his philosophy
- One-hand watches and new repeater
- Souscription watches and repeater mechanism
- Perpétuelle watches and their repeaters
- Equation of time, calendars and tourbillons
- Marine horology
- Marine chronometers, longitude watches, Breguet balance-spring
Nicolas G. Hayek, President and CEO of Montres Breguet, thereby succeeded in purchasing what many specialists consider as the most significant body of testimony in the entire history of watchmaking, thus enabling this manuscript, which may in due course be published, to regain its rightful place within the brand's stunningly rich heritage.

I feel so exhausted from my treatments. What can I do to give myself more pep? Some say I should exercise, but won't I get short of breath, since after all, I have lung cancer?
Charu Aggarwal, MD, MPH, Medical Oncologist at Penn Medicine, responds:
Keeping fit and staying healthy is important for you while you get chemotherapy. If you cannot exercise to full capacity, take it slow, maybe start with exercise that is less intense or for shorter periods of time, and then build up gradually. How about trying something like yoga? It may sound crazy, but even a little exercise can help build your energy. Try walking around the neighborhood or a mall if the weather is bad. Ask a friend to join you for company and motivation! Learn more about managing fatigue on OncoLink.
Charles B. Simone, II, MD, Radiation Oncologist at Penn Medicine, adds:
Just like chemotherapy, radiation therapy can cause fatigue. The fatigue caused by radiation therapy is typically cumulative during treatment, meaning that patients feel more tired towards the end of treatment more than during the first few weeks of therapy. This fatigue can also last several weeks to even months after therapy. Most patients, however, say they feel like they have more energy within approximately 2 weeks of finishing radiation therapy, and they are feeling mostly back to normal within 1-2 months of treatment completion. Exercise, as much as tolerated, is important. Studies have shown that patients who exercise and who perform all of their daily activities they were doing prior to starting treatment are less likely to have significant fatigue than patients who stay at home and decrease their activity for the majority of their treatment course. If and/or when fatigue does start, I recommend taking a short 30-60 minute nap during the day or moving your bedtime up to an earlier time at night. Long naps during the day, however, can make you have more difficulty with sleep at night and can make you feel even more exhausted as a result.
Jul 19, 2010 - Long-acting methylphenidate does not appear to reduce cancer-related fatigue in general, though it may be helpful in patients with more advanced disease or more severe fatigue, according to research published online July 12 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.

Comments about SPEEDO Hooded Cover-Up:
Based on the size chart for bust, I ordered the Large. However, when I tried it on it was more roomy than I prefer: falling off my shoulders to either side, slid either up to neck resulting in droop half way down back or down on front going an inch or two past my swim top towards stomach (I am a little shorter on the 5'3" side so likely not a problem for everyone). It looks "ok" when I adjusted it and looked in mirror but 5 minutes later after moving it looked as though it was more of a size XL than a Large. I will be returning for a size Medium which will hopefully fit because I really do like this hooded coverup.

I loved the fact that this had a hood and thought it would be the perfect beach cover up. I couldn't get it to sit right on my body. The waist was in the wrong place the hood was all twisted up. Very awkward and uncomfortable. Not at all flattering.

e Co New s VOL. XV, NO. 22 BRYN MAWR (AND WAYNE), PA., WEDNESDAY, MAY 8, 1929 PRICE. 10 CENTS � Little May Day Duly Observed Drizzling Rain Threatens, to Mire Enthusiastic Hoopers. HALO QUEEN FLORALLY Little May Day was held on May 1, according to tradition, and all the time-honored ceremonies were duti- fully observed. The Seniors, awak- ened at 6 o'clock by the Sophomores, proceeded .to give a May basket to Miss Park and one to Mrs. Manning, and at 7 o'clock the sun obligingly emerged* in response to^Jlie Latin hymn sung from Rockefeller Tower, as .it is sung from the Magdelene Tower in Oxford. Miss Woodward, was crowned Queen of the May on the >tairs with the customary salute and amid enthusiastic cheers from the college in the hall below. Somewhat revived by strawberries, chipped beef and the band, the col- lege danced about the Maypoles on the green. Mrs. Manning then pre- sented Miss Woodward with a neck- lace. Miss Woodward responded with an unusually entertaining speech, in which she thanked 'Mrs. Manning for 'taking the time from her thesis -to attend May Day, and declared that she thought May Queens were born, not made, and that she advised the college to gaze steadily at the neck- .lace. She also remarked that she was glad to see that the college was re- taining its old traditions, especially the weather and the food, but that she had wondered whether or not we were going to import Princeton for May Day, and make Crichton King of the May! Pagan Natures Capable of Intellect After ^sonie exceedingly spontaneous and/*�tracurricular dancing around theQ>and, which rapidly reached a state of exhaustion, the scholarships were announced in Goodhart. Mrs. Man- ning pointed out that there is always an easy contrast in celebrating the birth of nature and scholastic achieve- ments in the same breath. It is a pleasing thought that those who dis- port themselves on campus all spring and cause unfavorable comment by their pagan natures are capable of intellectual naturesf too. They are not guided by a sober and dismal appear- ance, but they know the thrill of men- tal experience. It is pleasant to the_admuustratoi', Mrs. Manning declared, to contem- plate the intellectual test. There is always the question of whether or not the administration is giving the student the material which will put her on her mettle. One chapel a year is .not too long in which to honor the students who have been most successful. These are the students to whom the marks often mean the least. A student often proves her mettle by wandering about in the subject in which she is inter- ested, but in general the marks guide the faculty. They are the only sym- bols of achievement, signifying the point reached in the approval of the faculty, and a.re the guides in award- ing the scholarships. , Graduate Life Not All Gloom Mrs. Manning admitted that there is an increasing latitude in the award- ing of the scholarships, and that it is not always done on a purely mathe- matical basis, but those who have met their teachers on their own ground, and who have contributed the most to the college, are chosen. The policies of the graduate school were next commented on; research, solitude and quiet, the life of a recluse for a certain number of hours a day. The life seems lacking in charm and interest to those outside, and its qual- ity can only be guessed at. There is, however, a sense of the command of a world of your own; you are captain of your soul and of your environment. The graduate may break down, but at least the life supplies her ego and her CONTINUED ON THE FOURTH PAGE Perkins Elected A competition so close that it was necessary for the college to vote twice in order that its bal- loting should constitute an elec- tion resulted in the choice, of Eliz- abeth Perkins, '30, for the office of President of the ^Undergraduate Association, and � of Virginia Loomis, '30, for the position of Vice president. Miss Perkins, who was not at college during the year .1927-28, ran the Freshman Show' in 1926. In the following year" she was President of her. class, and a mem- ber of the Self-Government Board. This yj^ar .Miss Perkins has acted as Vice President of the Under- graduate Association. She has taken part in several of the Var- sity plays, and she was a member , of the Players. She has also been in the Glee Club productions. � Miss Loomis was one of the ^committee of five chosen at the beginning of her Freshman year, and she was made Secretary of her class during the same year. In 1927-28 she was Vice President of the Sophomore class and Treas- urer of the Undergraduate Asso- ciation. This year Miss Loomis has lield the office of Secretary of the Association of which she is now to be Vice President. She too has taken part in several Glee Club productions. Truth Must Rest on Experience Dr. Rufus Jones Gives Optimis- tic View of Modern Ideas. Patience Proves a ete Success Gpmplt Spirit of Operetta Is Well Put Over by Glee Club Performance. CAST IS EXCELLENT The Dragoon Chorus from "Patience SOUL IS LIGHT OF MAN Dr. Rufus Jones led Sunday evening chapel in the Music Room of Good- hart. Dr. Jones first quoted a pas- sage from Upanishads of India, which he felt fitted perfectly into what he was about to say. The tale is thaj of the king who asked an Indian sage to tell him "what is the light of man?" The sage replies successively as the question is repeated: that the sun, the moon and fire are each the light of man, "for having them man sits, moves about, does his work and returns." Still the king persists, "but the moon sets, the sun sets and fire goes out, what then is the light of man?" The Sage replies, "then the soul is the light of .man." "I do not want you to feel I am giving a set address, but I read this extraordinary passage because it so perfectly comes out of a central truth: the faith of the mystic soul of man is in contact with a greater light shining through that soul. Truth must rest solidly on facts of experi- ence. What is true of truth in all other fields must be true in religion. Truth must be deeply rooted in the inward life and soul of man and must be tested by outward experience; it must be a creative faculty, a driving force and a permanent strength. There is a movement now in the direction of mystical religion, a movement pow- erfully in evidence all over the world. This is a type of inward religion that builds on first-hand personal experi- ence, and is not satisfied with reports of other people'9 experience. It is not satisfied to rest solely upon tradi- tional authorities and doctrines. "Mystical religion is always con- tagious. It is a radiant sort of thing and floods out from the very presence of the person with plenitude of char- acter. The myslff feels about God the way we guess a fish feels about the ocean. The mystic says that you do not have to make pilgrimages, and that soul is always in divine environ- ment. A remarkable passage from the Book of Proverbs�an accumulation of everyday commonsense where every once in a while star dust flashes�ends, -FOURTH PAGE Press Report of Germany's z__. Condition Is Exaggerated Dr. Dulles spoke very enlighteiiingly on the question of reparations in chapel on Monday morning, May 6. She pointed out that the guestion is a very important one, and that it will grow increasingly important in the fifty-seven-year-payment period that will ensue. The reasons for the present repara- tions meeting in Paris were then enu- merated in reverse order of impor- tance. The first is that the four mil- lion dollars owed to the United States by France, on which she has been paying twenty million a year, is due in August, and the situation will em- barrass France unless some arrange- ment can be made. Secondly, this is the first normal year under the Dawes plan, after the four transitional years, and some adjustments will probably be necessary. In the third place, Mr. �ilh/->-� wants to return to the United States after his four years' absence. Finally, the foreign borrowings of Germany in the United States are very heavy, and they may not continue. At present they are very complicated by the bull stock market. The whole situation is economic guesswork. Such big sums have never been handled before, and also the in- tercommunications of the economic world have let loose forces that are hardio control. A further complica- tion Is to be found in the political commitments, both between countries and within their >own borders. No government can go back on its com- mitments without being overthrown. The heaviness of taxation in foreign countries brings about such condi- tions as the danger of Communism in Germany. / Dr. Dulles theli pointed out the main problems confronting the Reparations Committee. It must consider the yearly amounts to be paid, and will probably revise them down from the Dawes plan. Then the nunfber of years must be definitely determined. Most important of all is the trans- fer problem; in fact,-this is the focus of the whole congress. A clause of genius in the Dawes plan stated that no money should be paid outside of Germany if it endangered the German mark. The congress now wants to do away with this clause. Miss Dulles explained that if the supply of cur- rency from normal trade and loans is less than demand there is bound to be a change in price which would en- danger the economic stability. The CONTINUED ON THE FIFTH PAOB Athletic Report Bloodless Revolution in Athletics Is �:�Described by Rebecca Wills. .(Contributed by Rebecca Wills. '29) Those of you who are accustomed to making presidents' reports may appre- ciate the intensity of the preliminary fog, a kind of vagueness as we begin to think what this year has brought in novelty or importance, what de- mands Rave had to be met, what im- provements, what failures have re- sulted. This year we members of the Ath- letic Association have witnessed and participated in a revolution. There was no blood shed.- There was no CONTINUED ON THE SECOND PAGE The presentation of Patience by the Glee Club on Friday and Saturday. May 3 and 4, was artistic from every point of view. The operetta, like all Gilbert and Sullivan, lends itself well to the amateur stage, because of the pleasing, light qual- ity of both words and music. Yet the development of the satire on acstheticism requires a skill which taxes' ffte profes- sional actor. Both cast and choruses caught the comic spirit of tfie opera and by their enthusiasm won the sympathy of the audience. The first act, although slow in move- ment liecause of its lovelorn character, is carried over by the heavy Dragoons. Their bright uniforms and military man- ner form a brilliant background for the aesthetic Bunthorne and his twenty love- sick followers. The action is carried through the advent of Grosvenor to the double climax where the maidens return to the Dragoons, since Patience claims Bunthorne, and desert again to Gros- venor, who is "aesthetic." The movement of the second act is more rapid and de- cisive. The Lady Jane and the Dra- goons pervade the stage, while Grosvenor moves attended by the rapturous maidens. Bunthorne proves a true philosopher when he strikes his final aesthetic pose against the background of the common- men aud women.-----------------------------� Bunthorne and Grosvenor Popular The singing and acting of Patience were uniformly good. The principals handled their long and - strenuous parts effectively. Seldom are such adequate solo voices found among amateurs. Pa- tience, Bunthorne, and Grosvenor, were Wilde, Original Bunthorne, Was an Affected Aesthetic Oscar Wilde, as the prototype of the Bunthorne of Patience, was the subject of Miss Carey's talk in Chapel on Fri- day morning. Wilde's exotic nature was foreshadowed by his parents, particularly by his mother, who did some writing, and was prominent in Dublin society, in early life for her beauty, later for a strange mixture of dignity with the bizarre. Oscar Wilde was born in 1854 in Dub- lin, and was christened Oscar Fingall O'Flahertie Wills Wilde. He was. sent to school when he was eleven years old. and he first distinguished himself by ap- pearing in his taTlsilk hat. After his career in Trinity College. Dublin, where he won a gold medal for an essay on Greek Comic Poets, he won a fellow- ship at Magdalen College, Oxford. At Oxford he developed the bizarre charac- teristics which we know so well. He collected a large number of exotic en- gravings for his walls: his pottery was really valuable, and he remarked: "O that I could live up to my bjue china." When John Ruskin lectured at Oxford on the "Aesthetic and Mathematical Schools of Florence," Wilde was diligent in attendance at all the breakfast parties and discussions. In spite of complete ignorance of painting and music, he assumed the role of artist and critic, and his remark about "a splendid scarlet thing by Dvorak" be- came famous. When he was hazed by a group of undergraduates, who dragged him unceremoniously up a hill, he merely observed as they let him go, "Yes, the view from this hill is really very charm- ing." . CONTINUED ON THE THIRD PAOB excellently cast for quality of voice and . dramatic suitability. The solos of Pa- tience, a little too sweet and innocent to rival in popularity those of Bunthorne and Grosvenor, were, nevertheless, very pleasant, particularly "when he was a little boy," where the Lady Angela adds her own insistent 'little" note to the re- ' fraih. Bunthorne's songs in the first act, "I Am an Aesthetic Shaw," and "Such a Judge of Blue and White," were follow- ed by his equally effective duets with Lady Jane and Grosvenor in act two� "Say Boo to You," and "A Commonplace Young Man." Grosvenor, introduced late . in act one, has a charming duet with Patience. "Willow, Willow," before he entertains his lovelorn maidens with "The Silver Churn." Both Bunthorne and Grosvenor, because of their clever appeals to the audience were enthusias- tically received. The Lady Jane was excellently played, the union of good .singing and acting l>eing perfectly achieved. The choruses were particularly sue- cessful in introducing diversity of detail without losing their group character. Both entered into the spirit of the opera and enjoyed their roles as thoroughly as did the audience. The love-sick maidens languished with utter abandon. A great deal of credit goes to their three spokes- men who were constantly called upon to develop the aesthetic views of the group to Patience and the Dragoons on whose numerous songs the development of the plot depended. The Dragoons were more colorful and decidedly normal in their reactions. The military drill, commanded by the efficient Major, was the delight of the audience who were completely fas- cinated by its intricacies. Much of the spice of the operetta was due to the amusing songs of the* Colonel and the distressing dilemma of the 'Lieutenant and his fellows as "aesthetic" wooers.

NOX wrote:Captain's Log - 9/7/2009
Pandora's box was not filled with candy.
The AZ 13, also known as the "Sahana", emerged from a large cotton-like cumulus cloud, on a course to Meka. It was a passenger airship, the sort of airship designed to fly up to twenty-four passengers all across the world at one time. Like the rest of the AZ series it had a rigid framework that spanned more than five stories in diameter. Most of its envelope was filled with helium gas, not as much of a dangerous component as hydrogen gas to be sure. He had heard tales of other models, and horrible incidents involving blazing fires. That sort of stuff cost the Mekian Airship Travel Corporation thousands, the organization in charge of operating the hundreds of airships manufactured by the Zeppelin Corporation. For eight years now, MATC Airlines have been going strong, ferrying passengers to and fro Meka, all of which has either business or travel on their mind. It was an industry important to the growth of the Mekian Empire. Without MATC, its world would collapse.
Some pilots took the job too lightly, others took it too seriously. Fritz was one of those people who were indifferent about it. After all, it was only a job. Unlike most pilots he did not dream of a life traveling the four corners of Rathya in hopes of adventure, those days were long gone. This was just another flight for him across the skies of Rathya, manning the controls with the help of his elevator man, Dav Atorr. He stared at the all too familiar clouds that marched along the skies as if they were dignified horses. It won't be too long now. If they remained on course with no sudden surprises that latest they should arrive at the docks would be in around fifty minutes. Not bad for an eight-year old zeppelin. The folks back at HQ told him time and time again how one day the airship wouldn't be able to stay afloat any longer, but Fritz had gone through tough times with the big girl, through harsh conditions and violent storms. Somehow the Sohana survived.
"How're you holding up?" he asked his companion. They hardly talked to each other during their flights. Both of them were often too busy, or Dav would have to switch shifts whenever they were about to enter a serious discussion. From what he gathered about the younger pilot, his parents were originally from Terrantula, and taught him how to detect changes in weather or control a ship's sails. Sometimes they would switch roles only to have Fritz find that Dav was better equipped at handling the rudder than him. He just preferred manning the elevator wheel to the rudder wheel, because it kept him more occupied. He had a girlfriend in Meka, a nice lass who worked at a café. On certain days Fritz would catch him singing the songs his girlfriend had taught him. Sometimes he would join in even though his voice was coarse when it came to singing, but the boy didn't seem to mind. He liked his company.
"I've been better" Dav answered, sighing to himself. It had been a long flight, too long in fact. It was beginning to take a toll on his body and mind. He missed his girlfriend, wanting nothing more than to be with her again. He wasn't the only one. Fritz had his own family that he missed, so he nodded in understanding, "This was one of our longer flights."
"How well do you think the passengers are holding up?"
"Can't really tell, but we have forty-five minutes until arrival. They should be fine until then, Lydia knows how to take care of them." Dav nodded, but didn't seem too happy about that. "They concern me."
Fritz raised one of his eyebrows questionably at Dav, "And why's that?"
"Didn't you know that we have at least two Orks on board?"
"You can't honestly think they would cause any trouble, can you?"
"I can think of a few examples."
Fritz sighed, "Look, Dav, I promise you that nothing bad will happen on this ship!"
"Just like nothing bad happened when we flew into that thunderstorm?"
"That was six cycles ago! And it wasn't my fault."

I was reading an article in City A.M a while back – a freebie newspaper containing banking and business news and distributed to those lucky souls in London who take public transport. On this wet and cold morning no one was interested in taking a copy so as I walked by the guy handing them out, I stuck out my hand. I wasn't expecting much but it was better than staring into nothingness (as you do on public transport in London because eye contact with your fellow passengers is to be avoided at all cost). I quickly thumbed thru the usual stories about one company or another that had merged or acquired another company. Then I came across an article by Marc Sidwell who is the managing editor of the said newspaper. I loved what he had to say about the Paralympics. I am now paraphrasing but effectively he said that by using all the available technology available to them engineers have been able to design better equipment for Paralympians who can then be faster and stronger. And by providing them access to the best equipment, engineers have enabled the athletes to liberate their human potential.
I think Mr. Sidwell's editorial really hit it home for me because a few pages earlier I had read an interview with the new CEO of Dyson – Michael Bow. Dyson is one of those inspiring companies that got its start by taking a ho-hum product and market and slap it upside the head – ok I know vacuum cleaners are not something you write home about but Dyson made vacuum cleaners (or as they say hoovers on this side of the pond) cooler than a very cool thing on a balmy summer's day.
Mr. Bow believes that companies need to invest more in R&D and to encourage risk taking in their engineers and designers. Apparently he practices what he preaches. Under his leadership, the company has reported record profits (profits have grown 30%) while their investment in R&D has increased from £45M to £59M – a very aggressive investment in their future. Unfortunately he has a resource problem – not materials, but human resources. In order for Dyson to continue innovating, they need a steady supply of engineers but according to the same article, the UK "produces only about half the engineers of say Mexico"; therefore, I suspect finding enough talented candidates may be a challenge for them. Now this is a dilemma and a half – without a steady stream of qualified engineers ready to innovate, the company may not be able to sustain its envious position in the market.
Reading these two articles in the space of 15 minutes got me thinking. It really is a crying shame that fewer kids decide to follow the path of engineering in England (I suspect this trend is the same in North America as well). Despite this trend, I personally don't think the shrinking numbers should be a stumbling block for any manufacturer in the short term because those few who are entering the workforce are taught to use state of the art tools at school – from CAD to CAE and rapid prototyping. As a result, by the time they enter the workforce they hit the floor running. Therefore, their level of innovation hasn't suffered because they can do more in a shorter period of time. And risk-taking has become more acceptable (I know many engineers by nature may even be risk averse). For example, simulation makes it easy to conduct multiple what-if tests to find the best possible design. As a result, you can take as many design risks as you like because you can test virtual prototypes and only advance the best of the best to the next step.
So even though this lack of engineering talent may mean that we may not have cooler and cooler vacuum cleaners or gadgets in the future, somewhere in the back of my mind I also think that fewer engineers means fewer opportunities for finding the next big thing that would further liberate human potential – whether it is to help Paralympians shatter new records or to help create prosthetic hands that help someone who's lost his/her arm to hold his or her child. And wouldn't that be a shame?
Until next time,

ROM: Hi Paul, we are thrilled that you are coming to speak at the ROM this Sunday and we would love it if you could answer a couple of questions in advance as we prepare for your arrival. I understand you studied art and biology at Northern Illinois University. How did you go from that to becoming one of the world's most famous palaeontologists?
Paul Sereno, one of my FAVOURITE palaeontologists, is coming to @ROMToronto this Sunday and I could not be be MORE excited. Except for maybe those times when I was a kid…
(cue time travel sound effect- swosh swish swash)
When I was a kid I had a pretty strict bed time. For grades 3 through 5, bed time was somewhere around 8-9PM. Very rarely were exceptions made. About the only time I ever remember my mom letting me stay up was for one of my favourite tv shows, Paleoworld.

When ROM Ichthyologist Dr. Hernan Lopez-Fernandez was unable to attend a 2011 expedition to the Cuyuni River in Guyana, he found other creative ways to collaborate with fellow scientists. Dr. Lopez-Fernandez enabled Devin Bloom, a U of T graduate student with extensive experience in Guyana through previous joint expeditions, to attend in his place and share the specimen collections and tissue samples with the ROM.
I've just come back from Grasslands National Park with the Grand Prize Winner of the Find the Baby Bison contest, Alexander Muth.

Fed should stop easing, have some patience: Plosser
LANCASTER, Pennsylvania

LANCASTER, Pennsylvania (Reuters) - The U.S. Federal Reserve needs to stop continually easing policy and have some patience because there are risks associated with its massive bond-buying program, Philadelphia Fed President Charles Plosser said on Wednesday.
"We are not even standing pat. We are trying to be easier and easier and easier," he told reporters. "That's why I believe it's time ... to quit trying to ease."
