Cardiomyopathy: Symptoms
Cardiomyopathy is a heart disease. The damaged heart does not pump blood correctly. The disease usually progresses, and patients develop life-threatening heart failure. People with cardiomyopathy are also more likely to have irregular heartbeats orarrhythmias.
There are two categories of cardiomyopathy: ischemic and non-ischemic. Ischemic cardiomyopathy is most common. It occurs when the heart is damaged from heart attacks due to coronary artery disease. Non-ischemic cardiomyopathy is less common. It includes types of cardiomyopathy that are not related to coronary artery disease.
There are three main types of non-ischemic cardiomyopathy:
- Dilated—Damaged heart muscles lead to an enlarged, floppy heart. The heart stretches as it tries to make up for a weakened ability to pump.
- Hypertrophic—Heart muscle fibers enlarge abnormally. The heart does not relax correctly between beats. The heart wall thickens, leaving less space for blood to fill the chambers, so less blood is pumped from the heart.
- Restrictive—Parts of the heart wall stiffen. Thickening often occurs due to abnormal tissue invading the heart.
Normal Heart and Heart With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

In many cases, the exact cause is not known. Possible causes include:
The cause of the initial damage is often not found, but may include:
- Ischemic heart disease with decreased blood flow to your heart
- Infections, usually viral
- Chronic exposure to toxins, including alcohol and some chemotherapy drugs
- A rare complication of pregnancy or childbirth (probably immune-related)
- Rarely, other illnesses, including rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, orthyroid disease
Causes may include:
- Inherited—sometimes present at birth but often developing in teens
- Aging, associated with hypertension
Causes are usually related to another condition, such as:
- Amyloidosis —Protein fibers collect in the heart
- Sarcoidosis —Small inflammatory masses (granulomas) form in many organs
- Hemochromatosis —Too much iron in the body

- Implementing the Syntax of Japanese Numeral Classifiers (2004)
- While the sortal constraints associated with Japanese numeral classifiers are wellstudied, less attention has been paid to the details of their syntax. We describe an analysis implemented within a broadcoverage HPSG that handles an intricate set of numeral classifier construction types and compositionally relates each to an appropriate semantic representation, using Minimal Recursion Semantics.
- Implementing the Syntax of Japanese Numeral Classifiers (2005)
- While the sortal constraints associated with Japanese numeral classifiers are well-studied, less attention has been paid to the details of their syntax. We describe an analysis implemented within a broad-coverage HPSG that handles an intricate set of numeral classifier construction types and compositionally relates each to an appropriate semantic representation, using Minimal Recursion Semantics.
- Open-Source Machine Translation with DELPH-IN (2005)
- The Deep Linguistic Processing with HPSG Initiative (DELH-IN) provides the infrastructure needed to produce open-source semantic transfer-based machine translation systems. We have made available a prototype Japanese-English machine translation system built from existing resources include parsers, generators, bidirectional grammars and a transfer engine.
- An HSPG-to-CFG Approximation of Japanese (2000)
- We present a simple approximation method for turning a Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar into a context-free grammar. The approximation method can be seen as the construction of the least fixpoint of a certain monotonic function. We discuss an experiment with a large HPSG for Japanese.
- Zero pronoun processing : some requirements for a VERBMOBIL system (1994)
- Some requirements for a VERBMOBIL system capable of processing Japanese dialogue input have been explored. Based on a pilot study in the VERBMOBIL domain, dialogues between 2 participants and a professional Japanese interpreter have been analyzed with respect to a very typical and frequent feature: zero pronouns. Zero pronouns in Japanese texts or dialogues as well as overt pronouns in English texts or dialogues are an important element of discourse coherence. As to translation, this difference in the use of pronouns is a case of translation mismatch: information not explicitly expressed in the source language is needed in the target language. (Verb argument positions, normally obligatoryin English, are rather frequently omitted in Japanese. Furthermore, verbs in Japanese are not marked with respect to features necessary for pronoun selection in English.)
- Annotating Honorifics Denoting Social Ranking of Referents (2005)
- This paper proposes an annotating scheme that encodes honorifics (respectful words). Honorifics are used extensively in Japanese, reflecting the social relationship (e.g. social ranks and age) of the referents. This referential information is vital for resolving zero pronouns and improving machine translation outputs. Annotating honorifics is a complex task that involves identifying a predicate with honorifics, assigning ranks to referents of the predicate, calibrating the ranks, and connecting referents with their predicates.
- Efficient Deep Processing of Japanese (2002)
- We present a broad coverage Japanese grammar written in the HPSG formalism with MRS semantics. The grammar is created for use in real world applications, such that robustness and performance issues play an important role. It is connected to a POS tagging and word segmentation tool. This grammar is being developed in a multilingual context, requiring MRS structures that are easily comparable across languages.
- Head-Initial Constructions in Japanese (2004)
- Japanese is often taken to be strictly head-final in its syntax. In our work on a broad-coverage, precision implemented HPSG for Japanese, we have found that while this is generally true, there are nonetheless a few minor exceptions to the broad trend. In this paper, we describe the grammar engineering project, present the exceptions we have found, and conclude that this kind of phenomenon motivates on the one hand the HPSG type hierarchical approach which allows for the statement of both broad generalizations and exceptions to those generalizations and on the other hand the usefulness of grammar engineering as a means of testing linguistic hypotheses.
- Definitheit und Numerus : Anforderungen an den Transfer Japanisch-Englisch (1994)
- Das Problem des Transfers in der maschinellen Übersetzung von Japanisch nach Englisch ist fehlende Information über Numerus und Definitheit im Japanischen, die für die Wahl der englischen Artikel und die Nomenmarkierung gebraucht wird. Obwohl dieses Problem signifikant ist, beschäftigt sich die Forschungsliteratur kaum damit. [...] Wir bsaieren unsere Untersuchungen auf experimentell erhobenen Daten aus einem Experiment über deutsch-japanische gedolmetschte Terminaushandlungsdialoge [...]. Auf diese Weise können Phänomene bestimmt werden, die für die Domäne von VERBMOBIL relevant sind. Wir sehen unser Vorgehen in Übereinstimmung mit dem 'Sublanguage'-Ansatz [...].

Endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is surgery to repair a widened area in your aorta, called an aneurysm. The aorta is the large artery that carries blood to your belly, pelvis, and legs.
An aortic aneurysm is when a part of this artery becomes too large or balloons outward due to weakness in the wall of the artery.
You will lie on a padded table in an operating room, in the radiology department of the hospital, or in a catheterization lab. You may receive general anesthesia (you are asleep and pain-free) or epidural or spinal anesthesia.
EVAR; Endovascular aneurysm repair - aorta; AAA repair - endovascular; Repair - aortic aneurysm - endovascular
Endovascular aortic repair is done because your aneurysm is very large, growing quickly, or is leaking or bleeding.
You may have an abdominal aortic aneurysm that is not causing any symptoms or problems. Your doctor may have found out about this problem when you had an ultrasound or CT scan for another reason. There is a risk that this aneurysm may open up (rupture) if you do not have surgery to repair it. However, surgery to repair the aneurysm may also be risky. In such cases, endovascular repair is an option.
You and your doctor must decide whether the risk of having this surgery is smaller than the risk of rupture if you do not have surgery to repair the problem. The doctor is more likely to recommend that you have surgery if the aneurysm is:
Endovascular repair has a lower risk of complications compared to open surgery. Your doctor is more likely to suggest this type of repair if you have other, more serious medical problems or are elderly.
Risks for any surgery are:
Risks for this surgery are:
Your doctor will carefully examine you and order tests before you have surgery.
Always tell your doctor or nurse what drugs you are taking, even drugs, supplements, or herbs you bought without a prescription.
If you are a smoker, you should stop. Your doctor or nurse can help. Here are other things you will need to do before your surgery:
The evening before your surgery:
On the day of your surgery:
Most people stay in the hospital for 3 to 5 days after this surgery, depending on the type of procedure they had. Compared to open surgery, you should recover more quickly, have less pain, and go home sooner.
During a hospital stay, you may:
Recovery after endovascular repair is usually fairly quick.
You will need to be watched carefully over time for signs or symptoms that your repaired aortic aneurysm is leaking blood.

Mulino Marino Wheat Flour Tipo 2 "Buratto" - 1kg
Country of Origin: Italy
Region: Piedmont
City / Village: Cossano Belbo
Produced by the Marino family in the town of Cossano Belbo, in the Piedmont region of Italy. Mulino Marino uses exclusively organic grains for their flours. For everything but their type 0 and type 00 flours, they use ancient millstones that have been passed down from generation to generation. The stone grinding preserves essential components that add to nutritional value and flavor of the flours.
This finely stone-ground wheat flour gets its name from the traditional method of sifting the milled wheat through cheesecloth or "Buratto", to obtain the smooth texture of the flour. This is the flour recommended by famiglia Marino for the best pizza, but it can also be used as an excellent bread flour.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) -- The Sierra Club says Kansas environmental regulators are not enforcing an odor control provision in a permit for Seaboard Food Inc.'s hog feeding operation in Greeley County.
At issue is the way the company is calculating the levels of water in lagoons used to treat manure for odor control.
The environmental group on Tuesday criticized the Kansas Department of Health and Environment for finding that Seaboard met requirements based on head counts and weights.
The Sierra Club contends KDHE is not enforcing the permit language by accepting the company's calculations. The complaint filed in August is the third one the group has filed.
The health department and Seaboard did not immediately respond to emails seeking comment.
Seaboard Food's Ladder Creek facility has a capacity for 132,000 mature hogs.

Bon Iver has a Good Time in Cooperstown
Only a few days from beginning a four-night stretch of sold-out shows at New York City's famed Radio City Music Hall, members of the acclaimed group Bon Iver took time out from their busy schedule to tour the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum on Monday.
In town for a concert on Monday, members of Bon Iver (French pronunciation bo-nee-VAIR, meaning "good winter"),who earlier this year won the Grammy for Best New Artist and for Best Alternative Album for the self-titled Bon Iver, were given a behind-the-scenes tour of the institution. Whether it was viewing a Babe Ruth scrapbook, a ball from the 1927 World Series or a bat Ted Williams once cracked in frustration, the musicians seemed genuinely enthralled.
"It was amazing to just see the operations and how it works," said drummer Matt McCaughan. "And to be up close with direct contact to these old artifacts and to see them firsthand was just incredible.
"It's certainly one of those things that – even though I don't necessarily follow baseball – it was one of those opportunities I didn't see how you could not come. I don't know when I'd be in Cooperstown next."
According to trombonist Reggie Pace, he didn't know what to expect in his visit to the Hall of Fame, "but it was really cool. I love seeing the history of things and this was really beautiful. After seeing the artifacts it's like the history of America in a lot of ways."
Pace was a big league baseball fan while growing up, lost interest in his high school years, but has recently been getting back into the game.
"I was a really big White Sox fan as a kid," he said. "I was a card collector, and I remember opening a pack and being like like, 'Robin Ventura. Oh my God!'"
Though he doesn't have a big league team he follows regularly, McCaughan does attend games of the minor league Durham Bulls in the North Carolina city he now calls home.
"I don't consider myself a historian but history is certainly an interest of mine," he said. "And this was just one of those things where it didn't even have to be baseball, as it is in this case, but you could have the Hall of Fame of anything and I'd want to come see it. In this case it just happened to be a very historic Hall of Fame."

'Serendipitous Evening'
29 September 2010
'Serendipitous Evening'
Seville. Day off.
There is a general strike in Spain today so a great many shops and services are closed. So much so that the U2 show, originally scheduled for today, has been moved to tomorrow. This creates the highly unusual situation of the crew doing a load-in yesterday, then having an entire day off today before heading back in to do the show and load-out tomorrow. On arrival at Mrs Miggin۪s B&B, where the crew are staying, it didn۪t appear to have a great deal to recommend it but in the light of this there is a surprisingly pleasant pool area out the back, with a very nice little poolside bar & caf̩.
Along with half the crew, I settled in on a sun lounger and continued with my book, William Gibson€™s Zero History. Early locations of the action include Seven Dials in London and Brunswick St. in Fitzroy, Melbourne, and both being places where I have lived it was not difficult to get absorbed into the story. I€™m enjoying it very much, particularly his observations and his use of language. (In 2005, he wrote an article for Wired magazine about the Vertigo tour during which he described my apparent demeanour as €˜saturnine€™, which of course I then had to go and look up.)
After some hours and a spot of lunch, I thought perhaps it was time to go and see some more of Seville up close. The hotel is quite a way out of town, next door to a stadium (though oddly, not the stadium that the gig is at) and would take about an hour each way to walk the distance. I enquired of the concierge what the state of play would be regarding calling a cab and he replied, €œin Sevilla there are two thousand nine hundred taxis and today ten of them are working.€
Sightseeing plans scuppered, I returned to the pool with William Gibson, holed up under a palm tree and carried on reading. In fact I ended up reading for pretty much the entire day, which is something I don€™t think I have done since wet weekends during childhood.
This also meant that our options for nocturnal comestibles were to either eat at the hotel (probably overkill having spent all day there) or to wander locally and hope for the best. It was a perfect evening, warm and dry with a completely clear, pink sky, so Alex, Raff & I took a meander out into this not terribly encouraging neighbourhood, past the empty stadium car park and kept going. To our surprise, only a couple of streets further it turned into quite an attractive little residential area, with the odd promising-looking bar and café here and there. We opted for opening with a beer at a perfectly run-down, tiny zinc-counter corner bar and pulled up some plastic chairs outside. Before our glasses were even half empty another party of U2 crew wandered by, some stayed, some wandered on, with rumour of a square further afield where it was, apparently, €˜all going off€™.
Being more in the mood for food than for animal house activities, we found a corner restaurant with a small front yard surrounded by railings and settled into a table. We did tapas-y bits and pieces that were quite wonderful, the night was warm and there was a regular supply of company as groups of other crew members strolled by. Even ran into Bono€™s brother Norman, which was a surprise. I love these easy, serendipitous evenings and hearing about the monsoons back home it really feels like a last reprieve before the end of summer.

you know, it's funny. the way the crew hangs out and bumps into one another is pretty much the same as we fans run into each other in various cities. These days, so many fans travel and sometimes I get the impression we all know one another by now. it's become normal to have at least a hundred very familiar faces in and around queues and pubs. And the conversation goes: 'Hey, how noice, long time no see, when will you queue, what shows did you go to, where do you want to stand, .have you heard that new song, heck Adam took his shirt off, sjees it was pooring rain that night, Bono tore his pants!!, crap I had the mother of all sunburns after that queue, auch my entire body ackes 'cause I've been jumping like mad. Where do you think the tour will end, it can't be Minneapolis. of all places!!' GA has started!!!, am number 45, YES!!! RAIL!!! = text messages flying back and forth because of course, there's like a hundred more who aren't there and have to be kept updated ... We don't speak about left or right, we talk about Edge or Adam's side. Our meeting point is left leg of the claw. The third verse to WOWY is a massive event for us (O YES in ROMA!) and HMTMKMKM really is the title to a song. Baby baby baby baby, Planet U2 is blue and there's nothing I can do ... It's been such a great summer. have a good holiday and we hope you'll be back in November.

Travel day, Melbourne - Auckland.
Within the bands entourage (certainly by comparison to the crews clockwork scheduling) travel departure times are often a little loose. This morning was especially so, due to three contradictory memos which had been emailed out last night and this morning.

I was planning on resurrecting the tour diary today, being the day we were scheduled to fly to Auckland for the load-in tomorrow. However, its now old news that the remainder of the tour dates have been postponed, so Im not going anywhere further than the corner cafe. Its been a very weird week indeed - much akin to driving into a wall.

Honestly, I think that it took a lot more coaching prowess to bring a bunch of "kids" and "re-habbing" players from the proverbial cellar dweller up to the 6th seed when the team wasn't expected to finish higher than 12th.
The Coaching award is supposed to be for "coaching ability", not the team that scores the most points (or second-most, etc.) in the standings. If they voters would have looked at the amount of points STL picked up after the All-Star break, it would have been pretty obvious that the team really came together.
While some people would call it an "East Coast Bias", I just think that until the Blues win the cup, they'll continue to NOT get any respect....maybe instead of Louie as the mascot we should have Rodney (Dangerfield)??
Good Season, Coach Murray!

Faux pas and proper etiquette in Bangkok
Bangkok can seem to be a world within itself; but although the British pubs and ice skating rinks may suggest otherwise, the capital city is, indeed, still in Thailand. Hoards of Westerners, known as "farang" in Thai, travel in and out of the city daily, and many have made Bangkok their permanent residence. Farangs are … read the full post

by David Brown Easy to shoot, easy to share Samsung has made it easier than ever to capture great photos, add artistic touches, and share them with friends and family. The WB800F may be compact, but its retractable 21X optical zoom lens lets you get incredibly close to subjects you may think are out of range. And the backlit sensor means poor lighting doesn't have to keep your photos from being bright and detailed. Whether you're shooting candid portraits of friends or recording HD video of your kids, lots of cool on-board editing features let you have fun experimenting with background templates or copying parts of one photo to a new photo. Email, upload, and back up directly from your camera Samsung has equipped the WB800F with an impressive array of wireless photo sharing options. The Direct Link button gives you easy instant access to your Wi-Fi network. Once connected, you can upload photos directly to social networking sites, email them to friends and family right from the camera, view them on a networked TV, or send them to your smartphone, tablet or PC for even more options. Worried about losing photos before you get around to backing them up? Then turn on AutoShare, which automatically sends photos to your Wi-Fi connected smartphone or tablet right after you snap the shot. Touchscreen and button controls With the ability to email photos from the WB800F, you may wonder how long it would take to enter a long email address using the rear-panel navigation buttons. It would likely be tedious, which is why Samsung incorporated a touchscreen LCD into this camera's design. That way, you can enter email addresses just as you would on a smartphone. There are also traditional menu buttons as well as a shooting mode dial, letting you quickly choose between auto or manual exposure modes.

Samsung WB800F Written By Anonymous, NY, NY on Saturday, October 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great camera for its price. Bought it last minute for a trip to Central America and took great, clear pictures and video. Easy to use. Pros: Ease of use, easy to share photos Cons: Microphone should not have been on top-left of camera since one holds it there when taking video. Perhaps the front would've been a better location.

Pros: Great pics, features, set up, sharing, zoom, touchscreen display Cons: Doesn't appear to be compatible with Windows 8 yet. Can't get any updates
Innovative Compact Camera Written By JOHNNY P, Port Jefferson Station, NY on Friday, March 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Perfect camera for people like me. I use an iPhone and an iPad. I love photography and take lots of pictures with my iPhone Because it is simple and it is always with me. But the iPhone cannot do what a good compact camera can do. I bought previously two digital cameras but never used them because I do not have a regular computer to upload the pictures from the memory card. I like advanced features on a camera. I was an avid film photographer. But at age 63, I prefer simplicity and user-friendly Operation. The Samsung smart camera is very easy to use. I did not get a 300 page manual with the camera. The camera came with a quick start guide. I believe that the iPhone is the easiest smart phone to use. The Samsung smart camera is very easy to figure out. I cannot compare the Samsung to other smart cameras because I've only used a Samsung. But it is definitely very use friendly. Takes great pics. So easy to upload to my Iphone. Then from my iphone I can do whatever I want. Pros: User-friendly. Large TOUCH screen. Built in Wi-fi. 21x Optical zoom. Innovative. Feature Rich. Compact. Uploads wirelessly to iPhone and iPad. Cons: None

News Volume IX* No. 12. BRYN MAWR. PA., WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 17, 1923 Price 10 Cents FORUM HOLDS CONFERENCE ONCOSTS OF EDUCATION"" Fore gn Students Explain Youth Movements in Europe. Visit Bryn Mawr Later � ^ Between sixty and seventy students from many Eastern and some Western colleges attended the National Student Forum Con- ference on the "Social Cost* of Education," held in -Hartsdale, X. V., from December 26-28. ^] The Conference was entirely a student affair, there being no outside speakers. The discussion turned first on the source of capital for founding and endowing colleges. Since in private institutions thi^1 wealth is, drawn from the profits of capitalists, labor is the unwitting source of a good which it does not enjoy. The obligation of students to repay in some way thcAdebt to labor which they-incur by attending college was the subject of a great deal of discussion and disagreement. Though it was gener- ally conceded that the student has indeed a responsiblity toward society, and that it is his duty in some way to work for a justcr system of educational opportunity, yet the means by .which he should do so could not be unanimously decided upon. Several people;, among them Justine Wise, cx-'24, who is now at Radcliffc, maintained that the only consistent course ^vas to withdraw from an institution based on injustice. It was pointed out that if this consistency were carried further, it would mean with- drawal from life itself, since existence without any contact With the capitalist sys- tem is manifestly impossible. � � The general feeling of the Conference seemed to be that such extreme measures were a matter of individual thought-and feeling, and impractical though admirable. The student's most reasonable course, ac- CONTINUKI) ON PAGE 4 VARSITY CHOOSES CAPTAIN .Miriam Faries, '24, was unanimously ^elected Varsity Hockey jCaptain for next ^year at .an informal team supper last Friday evening. Making Varsity her I-'reshman year. Miss Faries played left wing until the opening of this hockey season, when" she changed to center- forward. 'Miss Faries is also 1924's swimming captain and Chairman -of Hates House Committee. . JOHN P. GAVIT CHARACTERIZES ATMOSPHERE AT BRYN MAWR Miss Thomas has given the College The quality of Intensive Work COAL SHORTAGE CAUSES ANXIETY TO COLLEGE AUTHORITIES Clergymen Cancel Weekday Services to Relieve Suffering of Country (Statement by Mr. John J. Foley, Superintendent.) The coal shortage at the College was somewhat relieved by the closing of the halls and the cutting off of steam where possible during the Christmas holidays. The same is true of other schools and in- stitutions. A wholesale closing was avoided by the Christmas recess which enabled offi- cials to obtain coal for some of them. While poor families are without coal or fuel of any kind, every one connected with the College should economize on heat as much as ppssible. A* great economy of coal could be effected by every one closing the windows and turning off the thermo- stats or radiators, whichever it might be, when not using their rooms. Department heads are invited to help wherever possible. Many schools and churches, their supply exhausted, have already closed and many more will close before the end of the month. To relieve suffering throughout the country, the following resolution was offered and adopted by the clergymen of the different denominations: Be it resolved: "That wc pledge our- selves to save coal by cancelling all week- day services where a large church must be heated for a few persons or a parish house or community building for a small gather- ing. We pledge ourselves to see -that the poor and sick, and especially the sick, re- ceive fuel and demand that the coal com- panies treat rich and poor alike in the distribution of coal." "There is in' Bryn Mawr a quality of intensivvness in the work, of attention to the individual Student, a general thorough- ness of which the'College is, and has,xa right to be proud," concluded Mr. John P. Gavit in the second of a series of articles on Bryn Mawr College which appeared in the X'cw York Evening Post. In the early part of December, Mr. Gavit visited College for about a week, talking with the students and faculty and visiting elasses and athletic work. The headlines of his articles�"Bryn Mawr has been Martha Carey Thomas" and "Bryn Mawr's Head faces Hard Task" �summarize, to a large extent, the views which he received. In the first paper he spoke of the establishment of the College and of the strange fact that "the students have never . been preponderantly Quaker." He stressed ex-President Thomas' vital- in- fluence upon the institution, especially her "passion for study," and her ability in choosing excellent instructors. His second article presented Bryn Mawr as at "the dividing of the ways"�as changing from old regime to the new. Mr. Gavit described Miss Thomas "as the stu- dents saw her," remarked. upon her ex- traordinary ability and upon the success of her administration, and concluded by en- larging upon the opportunity which she has left to President Park. Mr. Gavit has written articles on the most important men'* and women's colleges of the East. As the representative men's colleges, he chose Harvard, Yale, Prince- ton and Dartmouth. The women's colleges selected were Smith, Wellesley, Vassar and Bryn Mawr. EVILS OF COLLEGE SYSTEM PROBED AT CONFERENCE Scott Nearing and H. W. L. Dana Denounce Moneyed Trustees (Specially Contributed) "What is the matter with the "Colleges?" was the question discussed at a conference of the League for Industrial Democracy, held in New York on December 29. E. Briggs, '24, and P. Fansler,, '24, attended the conference. These judges of the American colleges, middle-aged, stolidly eager radicals, for the most part all agreed that the colleges were going to the dogs, but only a few would commit themselves by locating the evil. The point emphasized by every speaker, verified by statistics, was that the colleges are, after all, business corporations with moneyed men for trustees, who are inter- ested in preserving the present social sys- tem. Scott Nearing spoke forcibly and rather bitterly; he is a pessimist. H. W. I.. Dana, dismissed from Harvard during the war for his pacifism, appealed to one's idealism in* a liberal and intelligent de- CONTINUED ON RACE 6 Match Games to begin on February Twelfth new water polo rules SOPHOMORES ENTERTAIN AT MARDI GRAS BAU Red Il'urrination Creates Brilliant The character of water polo has been Color Effect; Bright Costumes omewhat changed and improved by the Contrast Black and White new rules adopted by the Athletic Associa- tion, which will Ik- enforced in all practices and in" the match games, which begin February 12th. The 'rules, which arc taken from the English National Water Polo Association, were brought over this fall by Miss Apple- ice. These rules are n<4 the only new addition to the game as a "beautiful red ball" has appeared in the pool. In England !be game played by Bryn Mawr is called water polo, but over here it is known as water soccer. The new offside rule that it is a willful foul for a player.to take a posi- tion within two yards of his opponents' goal line will make the game much cleaner, producing better shooting and team work. The rule that from the start a goal cannot be scored till the ball has been handled by two players will prevent any very indi- vidual playing. Four teams from each class will enter the Under brilliant colored streamers and red lights the gymnasium made a gay setting for the Mardi (iras Ball given the Fresh- men by the Sophomores last Saturday night.

The ball ended at 11 o'cloek after the thirteen dances scheduled and several extras had been played. time for practicing this year is shorter than usual, and as sonic of the first teams have lost players, the match games may not be up to their usual standard. Bryn Mawr is not the only women's col- lege tHat takes an interest in water polo. Barnard has recently sent for the rules, in- tending to take up the games for the first time this winter. The additions to last year's rules taken from the rules of the English National Water Polo Association arc as follows: Staring�"From the start or restart a goal cannot be scored until the ball has been handled, viz., played with the hand below the wrist either by two members of one team in which case the scorer shall be within one-half distance of the goal at- tacked or by a player of each team."

Miss Draper has given her sketches in England and America with unprecedented success. She has developed the monologue until she has produced 'little cameos of character," which hold her audience en- thralled. To quote the London Times, "Her observation is almost wickedly keen: her expression of it is as clear and as bright as a diamond." - , The campaign for the Radcliffe Endow- ment Fund was started in 1920 to raise $3,000,000. One-third of the sum will be used in meeting the costs of the adminis- tration, another in raising the salaries of the faculty and of the instructors for the "Tutorial System," and the remainder -for the construction of a chemical and physical laboratory, two dormitories, a lecture hall, an infirmary and a heating plant. COLDS AND FUEL SITUATION ARE TOPICS OF COLLEGE COUNCIL President Park Briefly Describes Mt. Holyoke's Ideal Curriculum Prevention of colds, library fires, and. Mt. Holyoke's "ideal curriculum" were among- the subjects discussed at the last meeting of the College Council, on Jan- uary 10. President Park spoke of the seriousness of the fuel situation and explained that, although the Library fires had been discon- tinued on account of the high price of wood, she believed that they would be pos- sible* in the near future. �Miss Applebee introduced a discussion of methods for preventing the spread of colds. The Council felt that since many students with colds had been entering the swimming pool, public opinion should k* created against this. �" President Park described the "ideal eus- riculum" drawn up by Mt. Holyoke stu- dents and presented to the faculty. This curriculum, she said, which was of great assistance to the'faculty, included a pro- gram of required work, possible combina- tions of subjects, and suggestions for abler and poorer students. The suggestions that the Bryn Mawr faculty now received, she continued, which usually came from a sto- gie student or a small group, were not of the best type. She felt that a set of sug- gestions drawn up by the two upper classes would be interesting. Some years ago, Miss King said, the English Club decided to devote its meet- ings to the discussion of the "idea of a university," including divisions of time, number of lectures during the week and so on.
