�* I \ The College News VOL. XIX, No. 3 BRYN MAWR AND WAYNE, PA, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1932 PRICE 10 CENTS Bryn Mawr Votes Republican Out of 274 Votes, 181 Are for Hoover; Norman Thomas is Next With 54 Outstanding Majority of Votes on Prohibition Question is Cast for Repeal of Eighteenth Amendment; Minority Favors Enforcement TWO - THIRDS OF COLLEGE REPRESENTED; Bryn Mawr College is standing behind the re-election of President Hoover. There has been a great deal of bombast flying around the campus in which all threy^parties have made an equal amount of noise. But when the results of the straw vote, conducted by the College News, are put into cold black print, the Democratic and Socialistic fervor turns out to be more hot air than actuality. Two hundred and seventy-four ballots were collected, which represent over two-thirds of the entire undergraduate body. Of these, President Hoover received approximately twice as many votes as the other two candi- dates together. The Graduate School proved itself to be Socialistic, with one more vote foe Norman Thomas than for Hoover and Roosevelt together. Naturally, very few of these undergraduate votes will be cast in the Presidential elections on November 8th, since the majority of the college are under twenty-one years of age; and also because many students are at too great a distance from their homes to be able to go home to vote. How- ever, it is significant that of the twenty-six undergraduates who do intend to. vote on November 8th, sixteen of them will vote for Hoover, six for Roosevelt, and four for Thomas. Opinion is generally against a "protest vote," and against the supposi- tion that these elections will have any real influence on the course of our na- tional welfare. The other vote which stands out almost as decisively as Re- publican predominance is that on the ever-present issue of Prohibition; one hundred and thirty-two votes were cast for repeal and only fourteen for enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment. In .counting the votes wejjnly hope that we have done justice^to the con- victions of those people who, unable to answer a question by yes or no, wrote political essays on their ballots -for our edification. Some of them were amusing, if hard to decipher, especially in the case of the student who, instead of checking the party to which she "normally lent her sup- port," stated that she had never "leant her support to anyone;" and another who said she was voting for Hoover, ulthough she would much rather have Thomas for President. We were puz- zled by one undergraduate who put Bryn Mawr, Pa., for her class, and oven more so by one who claimed to belong to the Class of 2934. The News, nevertheless, feels that the results of this straw vote are rep- resentative of the feeling of the great- er part of the college, and feels justi- fied in putting Bryn Mawr on record as backing President Hoover, the Re- publican Party, and the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. American Universities Republican and Wet The Presidential poll recently con- ducted by the Daily Princetonian re- veals the extraordinary strength of the Republican party among forty- seven representative American col- leges and universities in thirty-one States. President Hoover led in thirty-one universities, gaining a margin of more than 11,000 votes over Governor Roosevelt. 29,289 ballots of the total vote of 58,680 supported President Hoover, while Governor Roosevelt was niven 18,212 votes; Norman Thomas, 1470 votes, and William Z. Foster, 715 votes. In the East President Hoover was supported by twenty colleges; in the South Governor Roosevelt carried the vote of eleven colleges, while Hoover gained the majority again in nine of I he Mid-Western colleges and in the Far West While President Hoover led in thirty-one universities, Roosevelt <wept efeven universities. Five uni- versities, including New York Uni- versity, Columbia, and the Massachu- setts Institute of Technology were strong for Mr. Thomas. (Continued on Pa*� Five) Dr. Swindler to Edit Archaeology Journal (Reprint From Nevi York Sun) Prof. Mary Swindler, who holds the chair of Greek sculpture and arch- aeology at Bryn Mawr College, has recently been made the first woman to edit the American Journal of Arch- aeology. This is a signal honor, for the magazine ranks first of all the archaeological publications in the country, since it is the organ of the American Institute of Archaeology. Dr. Swindler has been outstanding in her profession for years. She has made seven trips to Europe and on five of them studied the tomb paint- ings of ancient Egypt, the first Amer- ican woman ever to undertake this ambitious work. She has but recent- ly published a book on "A History of Painting" and it is being used by the graduate schools of Yale and Har- vard. "It seems to me," said Dr. Swin- dler, "that archaeology is one of the best fields open to women today. It is extremely interesting and gratify- ing; it presents wide fields for fur- ther research. And perhaps, best of all, men welcome and recognize the authority of women in archaeology, especially in the field of classical Greek art. "I think the reason is that women are peculiarly fitted for this kind of work. They do not seem particularly fitted for the actual superintendence of excavation work, but when it comes to drawing, writing, interpreting findings, they are excellent. They are more meticulous than men and they are more willing to take pains with small things. "Here at Bryn Mawr the study of Greek art and sculpture is especially popular. We have a number of Bryn Mawr girls studying over in Athens and in other parts of Europe. I would encourage girls to pursue this field, for they will find it highly in- teresting and instructive. After the proper college training, they can then go to certain places to carry on par- ticular studies in whatever kind of archaeology interest-them most. "There is plenty of opportunity in American archaeology. The surface has just been tapped, but just think what we still have to learn about the cultures of the Indians, the'Mayans and the Aztecs. Every time another tomb is excavated and some ancient pottery and jewels are brought to light we can write another paragraph in the history of these ancient peo- ples and can add something important to ear own knowledge."

Louis Reau lor his last Wednesday's lecture in the Music Room of Goodhart. M. Heau, who is the director of the Ga- zette des Beaux-Arts and professor at the Ecole du Louvre, as well as offi- cial lecturer of the Alliance Francaise, spoke under the auspices of the de- partments of- French and History of | Art. His talk, which was in French, was illustrated with lantern slides. Antoine Bourdelle, said M. Reau, represents that generation of sculp- tors which succeeded Rodin. Though less genial than the latter, Bourdelle ic-invested sculpture with simplicity, its purpose being, he thought, to en- hance the creations of the architect. Sculpture is the art par excellence I of the French, and their creations have been the greatest that the world has produced since the days of the Greeks. Notre Dame has no equiva- lent, even in Italy, where after a flare of grandeur in the fifteenth century, a period of decadence again set in. I In France development was continu- [ ous, from the Romanesque and (iol.h- i ic, through Jean Bourgeant in the Renaissance, Versailles in the seven- teenth century, Houdon and de Fal- connet in the eighteenth, Rude, Barye, 'Carpault, Rodin in the nineteenth, to Bourdelle and Despian of the present day.' Bourdelle was born at Montauban, a town between Bordeaux and Toulouse, the artistic capital of that region. Montauban itself was well known for its art in the Middle Ages, and was also the birthplace of Ingres. It was at the nearby cloister of Moissac that Bourdelle first came into contact with the French sculpture of the Middle Ages, which was to be one of the three irreat influences on his work. Bour- delle was interested, not so much in the thirteenth century, as in the Ro- manesque art of the earlier period. Having served an apprenticeship in his home town�under Falquiere� Bourdelle set out for Paris, as all young artists do, alas.

Ping-Pong Table in Gym to Satisfy Enthusiasts Having remained in obscurity all last year, entirely hidden under May Day costumes, the ping-pong table has ugain come into its own, and the Ath- letic Association hopes that real in- terest will be taken in this gentle sport. A manager has been appoint- ed�Leta Clews � and tournaments have been planned. The manager feels that ping-pong should have a wide appeal; there are many to whom God did not grant an athletic frame. There are also those whom a baseball quite honestly fright- ens. And we must not forget those whose feminine charm is wasted on a hockey field. - While their friends are prancing down the hockey field, they must either sit home on a cushion and grow fat or�play ping-pong. But ping-pong does more than provide safe and stimulating exercise for the feminine, the frail and the muscle- hound. Despite the opinion of tennis authorities, it may, on a small scale, help considerably in per- fecting the tennis stroke. Moreover, it requires cleverness, if not strength. What a boon to the Intellectual! Again, it can be played in high heels. Nor is there great need for an ath- letic costume. People rushing* back from a week-end could, if they desir- ed, go straight to the ping-pong ta- ble. How marvelous if, some day, it were to be placed among the possible Required Sports, or made an alter- nate to Body Mechanics! The manager, however, hopes that ping-pong will not appeal only to a specialized group. She feels sure that the swimmer, making for the pool, will enjoy her plunge far more for having stopped to warm up a minute at the ping-pong table. Let us, then, take this newly-rediscovered sport to our hearts, and make the ping-pong table in the basement of the Gym a common meeting ground for all sorts of people�the short and tall, the weak and strong, the stiff and limber. Dr. Vaughan Williams Gives Second Lecture Traces Origin of Folk Song to Excited Speech and Dance of Plain People HORACE ALWYNE PLAYS "Folk song is a microcosm of all the arts that go to make up the ar- tistic construction of music," Dr. Ualph Vaughan Williams asserted, in the second lecture of the Flexner ser- ies. On the Nature of Folk Song," which he delivered Thursday, October 27, in Goodhart Hall. In the course of his address, he traced the origin of folk music from excited speech and dance, and discussed its inherent lim- itations and advantages. To prove that the modality of folk music has an appeal for modern listeners, the i-hoir sang four English folk tunes and Mr. Alwyne played three exam- ples of modern modal harmony by De- bussy, Ravel, and Satie. As a summary of his last lecture, Dr. Williams remarked that national music is not all folk song, but folk song is national music in the most un- adulterated form possible, an art in its own right, perfectly adapted to the unsophisticated people who use it. Since "emotion is more primitive than thought, it does not seem far-fetched to suppose that primitive song origi- nated before primitive speech, and cer- tainly before the most primitive of instruments. According to Dr. Williams, song �rew from emotional, excited speech, an idea which seems borne out by the interchangeability of the words for "say" and "sing" in Old German. A folk singer speaks of "telling" not of "singing" a ballad, and the words and music are so inextricably mixed in his mind that he cannot hum the tune without the words. Song is an obvious way of giving pattern to words. Before men had written records, ballads served many of the functions of modern newspa- pers and books. Since everything had to be learned orally, to aid his mem- ory, the ballad maker (speaking in the singular for the sake of convenience) would put his story in a metrical form and, to increase the emotional value, would add musical notes. The first step in the development of the four-line folk tune was prob- ably the use of some stock phrase at (Continued on I'ir' Pour) Resignation The College Newt regrets to announce the resignation of Molly Nichols, '34. from the editorial staff. r

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My father has undergone brachytherapy (interstitial radiation therapy) in combination with Lupron 5 months ago. We can find no information about the proper screening program to monitor for tumor recurrence. Is monitoring of PSA a useful modality? Should CT/MRI be done regularly? Thank you!
Alan J. Wein, MD, Professor and chair of the Division of Urology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and Chief of Urology at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
Your father's treating radiation oncologist should issue follow up instructions after his brachytherapy for prostate cancer.
PSA monitoring is useful. In general, a periodic PSA should be done every 3 months after brachytherapy. It is not unusual for the PSA to rise and fall over the course of one year following treatment. At one year, the PSA should be less than 2.0 ng/ml. The patient should also be monitored for urinary obstructive symptoms, which can occur just after interstitial radiation therapy. CT/MRI is not generally done unless there is a specific problem.
Mar 17, 2010 - In patients with locally recurrent prostate cancer following radical prostatectomy, magnetic resonance-guided ablation using laser interstitial thermal therapy and cryoablation may be a feasible treatment, according to research presented at the Annual Scientific Meeting of the Society of Interventional Radiology, held from March 13 to 18 in Tampa, Fla. In addition, cryotherapy may be a feasible treatment for breast cancer patients who refuse surgery, according to other research presented at the conference.

At the beginning of the day, we played a game in which we had to toss a ball to each other while juggling ping-pong balls. It taught us the importance of how life will always have problems and difficulties and we have to be mindful about them....

Today we started our day with a reflection where we washed each other's hands of our struggles and our happiness, giving it to God. A great way to start out our week – acknowledging that we have both struggles and happiness. After we washed our hands we presented each other with a Tau cross and sent out to our work site agency for today.

Today we spent time together as a group as we situated ourselves in the Tau Community House and familiarized ourselves with our new surroundings. We were given a thorough tour of the house and a detailed explanation of the weekly schedule, which left us all feeling rather excited and enthused.

It is hard to believe that the last day of being in Tennessee doing Habitat for Humanity has come so soon. It feels like just yesterday that the Tennessee Team got here.

Today was our last day at the house-building sites. The morning temperature was just a bit below freezing point. However, it was sunny and quiet. As I was riding in a passenger van with my fellow teammates, I was wondering how our last working shift would unfold in front of us.
By Meredith Shalda March 14, 2014
I would have to say that my favorite thing about Habitat is that every year has something new to offer. Whether it be opportunities to travel to a new place, learn a new skill, or meet new people, every Habitat trip is different in its own special way. This year is no different; I have gotten to meet new people, get closer to other people, learn new things and skills, and travel to a new place!
By Laureen Knueven March 13, 2014
Today we were asked to lead the devotion to start off the workday at our worksite. Naturally, we picked the story of St. Francis of Assisi and how he was called to rebuild God's Church. Each individual of our group read a different part of the story and we ended with a prayer.
By Dorron Applin March 12, 2014
Well, day three went a little different than the previous days, which consisted of site construction and running back and forth to get work done efficiently. Today due to the weather conditions – raining overnight and into early morning – we could not go to the construction site. Instead, we were all distributed between the Habitat Office and the Habitat ReStore to help out where needed.

So today was my first time on the jobsite. Although, it was the first day for the four of us, we seemed to catch on very quickly. We got to help the rest of the gang build a wall! It was so much fun! We had to lay out all of the 2x4s and nail them together so that there were 2 windows and a door space.

One of the many common bonds of our group is the love for country music, so we found ourselves singing this song all day. Nothing but blue skies, sunshine and perfect temperatures set the perfect stage for day two on the job site.

We've spent a total of four days together and two days on the worksite. Each day we've grown closer as team, almost like a family. Today, we finished painting the walls, grouting the kitchen floors, tiling the bathroom, and laid down laminate floors in the front room.
By Ashley Wagner March 10, 2014
Today was the big day! It was our first day to actually be on the worksite. To start it off, I slept through my alarm. I'm not exactly sure how, but I did. Don't worry, I was still on time to head off to the worksite.

Today was our first day of working at the site for Habitat. We were privileged enough to meet the homeowner and work alongside her while building her house. She is a woman in her 60s who will be living alone and was very lively and grateful for the work that we do.

This Habitat trip is my first time ever being part of Habitat team and the first time I have ever been in Tennessee. Today was the first day on the job site even though we have been here for two days already. These past few days that we have been here have been the best ever. The weather is perfect with NO snow and the sun is shining.
By Joe Esposito March 9, 2014
Our second day was a mix of environmental exploration and fifteen-seat passenger van-induced group bonding. Our group split up and either attended the sermon at the Baptist church where we are staying, or a Catholic service a short drive away. I personally enjoyed having a Sunday before we start the actual building project to drive home the theme of service that surrounds our entire trip.

Today some of us attended church service at Victory Baptist Church. We were welcomed with open arms into the service; many people came up to us, shook our hands and introduced themselves, and thanked us for helping their community. Before the service started, we were offered coffee, hot chocolate, or tea by the members of the congregation. During the service, many of us were moved by a quote that the preacher said, it went a little something like this:

text: 3 Does he do enough?RJNeb2 | 01/06/2013 | See all RJNeb2's reviews (703)In a Dublin suburb during that magical summer between leaving school and starting college, Richard seems to have it all: popularity, respect, loving family, a hot new girlfriend. So what does he do? Naturally, he goes and blows it. Charting the slow unravelling of the boy-who-has-it-all, Abrahamson is well served by his young lead Reynor who gives a commanding performance in the lead. But the film is so matter-of-fact and so objectively aloof, it's quite hard to care about what Richard actually did.

Decorticate posture is an abnormal posturing in which a person is stiff with bent arms, clenched fists, and legs held out straight. The arms are bent in toward the body and the wrists and fingers are bent and held on the chest.
This type of posturing is a sign of severe damage in the brain. People who have this condition should get medical attention right away.
Decorticate posture is a sign of damage to the nerve pathway between the brain and spinal cord. Although it is serious, it is usually not as serious as decerebrate posture .
The posturing may occur on one or both sides of the body.
Abnormal posturing of any kind usually occurs with a reduced level of alertness. Anyone who has an abnormal posture should be examined right away by a health care provider.
The person will receive emergency treatment right away. This includes getting a breathing tube and breathing assistance. The person will likely be admitted to the hospital and placed in intensive care.
After the condition is stable, the health care provider will get a medical history from family members or friends and a more detailed physical examination will be done. This will include a careful examination of the brain and nervous system.
Medical history questions may include:
Tests that may be done include:
The outlook depends on the cause. There may be brain and nervous system injury and permanent brain damage, which can lead to:

In LLATL, your student may read literature passages that use adjectives. He may be asked to read the passage without the adjectives and decide how important they are to the understanding of a story. Another activity may include writing a descriptive sentence/paragraph about a picture using adjectives or rewriting the passage using different adjectives. These activities not only teach language arts skills in addition to adjectives, but your student will incorporate the skills into his everyday writing.
The goal of any language arts program should be to equip the student for a lifetime of communication through the written and spoken word. With LLATL, your student will acquire a deeper understanding and a greater interest in the language arts subjects.
Real books are used in the reading lessons, complete with vocabulary words, discussion questions and a variety of activities. Reading real books instead of basal stories makes reading a joy and the beginning of a lifelong adventure for your student.

Disclaimer : This handbook has been replaced by a newer version and is not maintained anymore.
[ << ] [ < ] [ Home ] [ > ] [ >> ]
3.a. Using One Branch
The Stable Branch
The ACCEPT_KEYWORDS variable defines what software branch you use on your system. It defaults to the stable software branch for your architecture, for instance x86.
We recommend that you only use the stable branch. However, if you don't care about stability this much and you want to help out Gentoo by submitting bugreports to https://bugs.gentoo.org, read on.
The Testing Branch
If you want to use more recent software, you can consider using the testing branch instead. To have Portage use the testing branch, add a ~ in front of your architecture.
The testing branch is exactly what it says - Testing. If a package is in testing, it means that the developers feel that it is functional but has not been thoroughly tested. You could very well be the first to discover a bug in the package in which case you could file a bugreport to let the developers know about it.
Beware though, you might notice stability issues, imperfect package handling (for instance wrong/missing dependencies), too frequent updates (resulting in lots of building) or broken packages. If you do not know how Gentoo works and how to solve problems, we recommend that you stick with the stable and tested branch.
For example, to select the testing branch for the x86 architecture, edit /etc/portage/make.conf and set:
Code Listing 1.1: Setting the ACCEPT_KEYWORDS variable
If you update your system now, you will find out that lots of packages will be updated. Mind you though: when you have updated your system to use the testing branch there is usually no easy way back to the stable, official branch (except for using backups of course).
3.b. Mixing Stable with Testing
The package.accept_keywords location
You can ask Portage to allow the testing branch for particular packages but use the stable branch for the rest of the system. To achieve this, add the package category and name you want to use the testing branch of in /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords. You can also create a directory (with the same name) and list the package in the files under that directory. For instance, to use the testing branch for gnumeric:
Code Listing 2.1: /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords setting for gnumeric
Test Particular Versions
If you want to use a specific software version from the testing branch but you don't want Portage to use the testing branch for subsequent versions, you can add in the version in the package.accept_keywords location. In this case you must use the = operator. You can also enter a version range using the <=, <, > or >= operators.
In any case, if you add version information, you must use an operator. If you leave out version information, you cannot use an operator.
In the following example we ask Portage to accept gnumeric-1.2.13:
Code Listing 2.2: Enabling a particular gnumeric test version
3.c. Using Masked Packages
The package.unmask location
Important: The Gentoo developers do not support the use of this location. Please exercise due caution when doing so. Support requests related to package.unmask and/or package.mask will not be answered. You have been warned.
When a package has been masked by the Gentoo developers and you still want to use it despite the reason mentioned in the package.mask file (situated in /usr/portage/profiles by default), add the desired version (usually this will be the exact same line from profiles) in the /etc/portage/package.unmask file (or in a file in that directory if it is a directory).
For instance, if =net-mail/hotwayd-0.8 is masked, you can unmask it by adding the exact same line in the package.unmask location:
Code Listing 3.1: /etc/portage/package.unmask
Note: If an entry in /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask contains a range of package versions, you will need to unmask only the version(s) you actually want. Please read the previous section to learn how to specify versions in package.unmask.
The package.mask location
When you don't want Portage to take a certain package or a specific version of a package into account you can mask it yourself by adding an appropriate line to the /etc/portage/package.mask location (either in that file or in a file in this directory).
For instance, if you don't want Portage to install newer kernel sources than gentoo-sources-18.104.22.168, you add the following line at the package.mask location:
Code Listing 3.2: /etc/portage/package.mask example

Many of you have asked to see the MCAI NY team's requested additions to the list of finalists. We have nothing to hide and we believe you have a right to know. We only wish these designs could have been officially recognized by having been included from the beginning. (There were actually several more we would have liked included, but we felt at the time that the more we requested, the more difficult it would be to have our choices considered at all, so we trimmed the list down to these thirteen.)
These are the designs we asked to have added as finalists:
Stories from the Field Logo by Dan Vlahos
Eyewitness by Orn Smari Gislason
Stories from the Field Design .04 by Tsang Seymour
Stories from the Field Logo by Atkinson
The Filmic Eye by Irene Hoffman
Stories from the Field by Can Lam
Depth of Field by Nathan Turner
Circular Logic by Raymund Maravilla
These two entries made the D21 list and also placed high on our list of favorites:
Square with Filmstrip by David Muhlfeld
Stories from the Field by Abi Huynh
Once again, we extend our sincere thanks to all who participated.

In this week's statistical lap around the NHL, Jesse Spector takes a look at the split—or lack thereof—between goalie tandems, the effectiveness of the power-play slapper, and shots—lots of them.Start Slideshow
Statistics from stats.hockeyanalysis.com, nhl.com, behindthenet.ca and hockey-reference.com
Nearly every coach in the NHL began the shortened season talking about the need to rely more on backup goaltenders and keep the grind from wearing down their best stoppers. So, how's it going?Next
"I would say we were bang-on for the first 20 games, and there has been an opportunity to go with a hot goaltender, or a guy who played a good game or had played a couple of good games, the way the games have been spaced and are going to be spaced," Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said. "We'll probably go to a plan in the last 15 or 12 games or so. I think we've gotten good games out of both our goaltenders. We've played both goaltenders in big games. We've had a couple of bumps, but we've gotten really good games from both of our goalies."
Bylsma has the luxury of two solid netminders in Marc-Andre Fleury and Tomas Vokoun. Meanwhile, a big part of the success story in Chicago has been Ray Emery posting a 12-0-0 record, and Viktor Fasth's emergence in Anaheim has allowed Bruce Boudreau to have almost an even split of games with Jonas Hiller, who has played 19 times to Fasth's 16.
Meanwhile, with no margin for error after a rough start to the season, and no NHL-caliber backup from the jump, Ilya Bryzgalov has been called on 31 times for the Philadelphia Flyers, including five times for both ends of a back-to-back set. Bryzgalov had a 2.19 goals against average in January, 2.92 in February, and 3.08 in March, as the Flyers' season has begun circling the drain. Bryzgalov is tied for the league lead in games started with Nashville's Pekka Rinne, whose GAAs by month have been 2.37, 1.96, and 2.88.
Obviously, it is easier to stick to a plan when your team is winning, so there is a bit of chicken-and-egg here, but it is worth noting that of the top 10 teams in the NHL, points-wise, seven have used their backup goaltender in at least 10 games, compared to 11 of the remaining 20 teams.
When Nikolai Khabibulin made 43 saves on Tuesday to shut out the St. Louis Blues, he became the first Edmonton Oilers goalie to stop 40 or more shots without allowing a goal since Curtis Joseph did it against the Florida Panthers in 1997, and the third in the NHL to have such a busy night while recording a shutout this season.Next
The 40-save shutout is a rarity compared to last season, featured in 0.6 percent of games compared to 1.3 percent. Since the start of the 2005-06 season, the league-wide rate is 0.76 percent. Teams have recorded 40 or more shots in 16.3 percent of games over the last seven-plus seasons, with 4.7 percent of those games resulting in shutouts. Teams with 40 or more shots in a game have a cumulative 752-495-236 record during that span, meaning that if you get 40 shots on goal, you should expect to at least record a point two-thirds of the time.
Logic suggests that the teams that shoot the most should also score the most, but the Ottawa Senators, who lead the NHL with 32.1 shots per game, are tied for 21st in scoring, at 2.50 goals per contest. That's because the Senators only score on 7.8 percent of their shots, tied for the third-lowest rate in the league. The reason that the Senators have survived that generally rotten luck to stand in fifth place in the Eastern Conference: Ottawa goalies lead the NHL with a .939 save percentage. Meanwhile, surprise playoff contenders in Toronto and Anaheim are tied for 22nd in shots per game, but rank fourth and sixth, respectively, in scoring.
That's a different way of saying that the Maple Leafs and Ducks have high PDO figures, the statistic that adds shooting percentage to save percentage (at 5-on-5), and is generally thought to be predictive of forthcoming struggles if it is too far over 1000. In fact, Toronto is tied for the highest PDO in the league at 1028, while Anaheim is at 1027.
The other team at 1028 with Toronto? That would be the Pittsburgh Penguins, for whom outperforming expectations means winning 14 straight and building a seven-point lead in the East, rather than what it means for the Maple Leafs, which is being seven points clear of the dividing line between a playoff spot and a return to the draft lottery.
Toronto may be able to survive regression because the season is short, but over the long haul, the best way to win games remains to get as many pucks on net as possible, and to avoid too many Khabibulin-like nights against you.
The last time that the NHL's games played lead was actually 82 was 1996-97, when 52 players appeared in every game for their team. Since then, there has been at least one player each season who has been traded and wound up playing more games than were actually on the NHL schedule. Last year, Daniel Winnik was the leader, playing 84 games.Next
Back in 1994-95, the last time there was a 48-game season, the league leader was Josef Beranek, who played 14 games for the Flyers, then was traded to the Canucks for Shawn Antoski, then and played in 37 games for a total of 51.
So far this season, no player will have an opportunity to go over 48 games, in part because the oh-so-busy Penguins have played 35 and not traded anybody from their roster. The only traded player who can play a full 48 is Keaton Ellerby, who went from Florida to Los Angeles and has played 33 games so far, the same total as the Kings.
As it stands entering action on Friday, there is a 35-way tie for the games played lead at 35, split entirely among Jets, Maple Leafs, Panthers, and Penguins. If there aren't any trades that let someone play 49 or 50 games, the NHL might need to add a full page to its record book next season to accommodate all of this year's league leaders.
The usual way to think of slap shots on the power play is a big blast from the point by a defenseman. When it comes to 5-on-4 slappers this season, the leading scorer is Alex Ovechkin, who has five goals from big drives.Next
Of the players who have scored multiple slap shot goals at 5-on-4, Ovechkin's average shot distance is the shortest, at 35.8 feet. The range among 19 players goes from there out to Blackhawks defenseman Nick Leddy, who has scored twice on slappers, taking his average rip from 55.6 feet.
Firing away from close range is not a guarantee of success, though. Sidney Crosby has taken 10 slap shots on the power play, from an average of 37.7 feet, and he hasn't scored once. What a disappointing season for him.
Sometimes the best defense is a good offense, as the Boston Bruins are showing this season.
Boston has the NHL's top-ranked penalty kill, with a 91.2 percent success rate and only eight goals allowed. Good goaltending goes a long way, but so does the fact that the Bruins don't settle for simply clearing the zone when they get the puck.
The Bruins get 23.5 percent of the shots on goal during their penalty kills, the highest rate in the NHL, and in concurrence with a league-high 20.6 percent Fenwick percentage, which throws missed shots into the mix.
A big reason that the Bruins are able to control the puck on the kill is that they have not one, but two of the best centers in the game on key faceoffs. Among players with at least 20 victorious shorthanded draws this season, Rich Peverley's .629 winning percentage at the dot ranks fourth, one spot ahead of Patrice Bergeron at .622.
The Sharks also have a pair of centers in the top 10 of shorthanded faceoff winning percentage, with Joe Thornton in seventh and Joe Pavelski in eighth. Not coincidentally, San Jose has the No. 3 penalty kill in the NHL.

Black Wax Resist Chopsticks, Set of 2
Lovely Chopsticks, Misleading Listing
I do love these chopsticks - they're quite pretty and I think they'll make a great gift.
Unfortunately, "Set of Two", as this online listing states, means "Set of two chopsticks, plus a rest", not "set of two pairs". It appears that all of the other chopsticks available through the site which are advertised as "set of X" actually have X pairs of the chopsticks, so I'm not sure why this one listing would be different.
Regardless, at least in my case, buying online did not make sense, as the in-store price for the chopsticks/rest set was approximately half of what I paid for my "set of two" here, so I'll be returning the one set I was shipped and repurchasing another in store.

Roadmap to sub-nanometer OPC model accuracy
White Paper
OPC models describe the entire patterning process, including photomask, optics, resist, and etch as a set of separately characterized modules. It is difficult, however, to definitively calibrate the optics model because the aerial image is not easily measurable. There are a number of methods of calibrating photomask, optical, and resist, and etch parameters. This paper will systematically explore the impact of all components in the photomask and optical models, and will provide a pathway to sub-nanometer accuracy required for 20 nm technology.
