LONG BRANCH BATES HOUSE TEACHES STRANGE ACCOMPLISHMENTS DEBATING DISGUISED 1918'* Impromptu Speakings Success Acting on the suggestion given by Dr. De Laguna in his description of the Ox- ford Fabian Society, several of the Sopho- mores have experimented with a method of impromptu speaking which promises to be much more efficient than the system of practice debates of last year. No preparation is necessary for the speaking, except by one person who chooses the speakers and their subjects in advance of the meeting. V. Kneeland did this for the first meeting, which was held on Tues- day evening, February 8th, in the Chris- tian Association Library. About thirty- five Sophomores were present. Minute-GIa** Times Speaker! The person in charge of the meeting, that is, the only one who knows who the speakers are to be, announces the first speaker and her subject, allowing her two minutes to think of her speech. At the end of the two minutes, the person called on must speak for five minutes. No apol- ogies are allowed and a stopwatch and minute-glass time the speakers accu- rately. During the two minutes in which each subsequent speaker thinks of her subject, there is open discussion of the subject of the previous speaker. At the end of the hour the person to arrange the speakers for the next time is chosen. C. Dodge was elected, at the first meet- ing, for the second meeting, which came last Tuesday. The speakers and subjects at the first meeting were in order as follows: C. Dodge, "Gordon Craig and the New Staging"; E. Houghton, "Advantages of Four Months Away from College"; M. O'Connor, "Merits of the English Course"; V. Frailer, "The Artistic Tem- perament"; G. Flanagan, "Advantages of Horseback Riding"; L. Hodges, "Incon- ststsney of Self-Government at Bryn Mawr"; and R. Cheney, "Answer to Mlas Hodgea". Canvass for Support Begun COLUMBIA INTRODUCES COURSE ON PRISONS Columbia is laying aside funds for the maintenance of a new course in practical penal problems. These funds were con- tributed by three persons actively inter- ested in the campaign to support the prison reforms of Professor Kirchwey. now acting warden of Sing Sing. Pro- fessor Kirchwey will co-operate with Co- lumbia University In giving these courses. Bates Camp Committee has begun the annual canvass to raise money; $1100 is necessary for the running expenses of the Camp; $600 is paid from the Chris- tian Association Budget, the remaining $600 must be raised by separate pledges now. Spring Street Mission In New York pays the rent of the house, but the rest of the support comes entirely from Bryn Mawr. Mr. Bates, who had charge of the Spring Street Mission, interested Bryn Mawr in his work through speaking in Chapel. Al- most immediately the Sewing Committee was started to make dresses for the chil- dren in the Day Nursery and Junk Com- mittee to send old clothes to Mr. Bates for the people who were in need. Later a committee was formed at bis sugges- tion to plan for a summer camp. Presi- dent Thomas gave her approval to the plan on condition that an older person, not the cook, be In charge as chaperon. In 1913 the camp was opened at Elms- ford, a farm in New York State. Mar- garet Shearer, '10, was in charge for the first two years and was assisted by Bryn Mawr undergraduates. Since then the "Bates House", has been moved to Long Branch, New Jersey, where it has the double advan- tage of being near New York and being by the seashore. Many of the people like being in a town so that they can go to the movies. The house is large and there is a back yard, and a stable, where the children play on rainy days. Hun- dreds of people who can not afford to get any other vacation spend a week or more at Bates. Part of the time there are Italian families�mothers with their little children. The housework of the camp is done by those who can only have a vaca- tion by working for their board. Experiences Varied, Say Bryn Mawr Helpers The Bryn Mawr helpers take care of the children, chaperon the boys and girls and entertain the Missionary So- ciety. Their reports of camp life are en- thusiastic and show that the experience Is varied. One of those who was there last summer wrote a glowing account of her week there, ending with the following lines: "Bates Camp taught a new vocation. There I learned to guide the child; l<ead it in the way appointed�^______ Spank It hard or treat it mild. | Learned the colic's every symptom. Told a fairy tale or two; i Doled out bread and milk to infants� Learned to love the Irish stew There I learned to scrub the woodwork, Disinfect the rooms with care; Make the beds and say the blessing. Lead the hymns and comb the hair. , Learned the art of dressing children. Learned to love the nursemaid's toil; Feared the lollypop's attraction, Learned respect for castor oil". ADVANCE NOTICE OF NEW BOOKS Art, Plays, Biography, History Among the new books which will be placed on the shelves of the New Book Room Friday morning are several of varied and general interesL "The Life of Clara Barton", by Percy H. Epler, is the first complete biography of the founder of the National Red Cross In this country. It shows Clara Barton on the battlefields of the civil war, at the sieges of Strassburg and Paris in the war of 1870. and finally, as president of the American Red Cross, at the front in the Spanish war. Miss Barton's diagnosis of the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian war and Its evident relation to the causes of the present wai make the book especlall; timely. "The New Tendency In Art", by Henry R. Poore, is an attractively bound hand- book of post-impressionism, cubism, and futurism. The Illustrations are numerous and illuminate a rather abstruse text. There will be two new volumes of plays from the Russian and one from the Swedish in the New Book Room on Fri- day. "Plays" by Leonid Andreyeff, the gift of the Class of 1916, is translated from the Russian by C. L. Meader and F. N. Scott and Includes "The Black Mask- ers", "The Life of Man", and "The Sablne Women". "Plays" by Anton Tchekoff. the gift of the Philadelphia Alumna*, is translated by Marian Fell and Includes "Uncle Vanya", "Ivanoff", "The Sea- Gull", and "The Swan Song". The Swed- ish plays are Strindberg's Translated, with an Introduction, by Edwin BjOrkman, they are "The Bridal Crown". "The Spook Sonata". "The First Warning", and "Gustavus Vaaa". m

What Tex Thinks?
Consider this entry a press conference or an "open-line" talk show.
Is there something you want to know from Tex?
Ask your question in the comments; and see if Tex answers. I'm going to say it can be non-Quixtar related--BUT no questions that could be personal enough to divine Tex's identity.
Just questions. And hold off on follow-ups. Let's see what Tex tells us. He's a pretty smart guy.
I'll start.
"Tex, how tall are you?"
24 comments:
How is your business growing?
- April 22, 2008 at 5:04 PM
Moving more PV than IBOfightback's business?
- April 22, 2008 at 6:13 PM
These questions have NOTHING to do with the tool scam facts, but I'll play along for entertainment value.
Dave said, "BUT no questions that could be personal enough to divine Tex's identity. "Tex, how tall are you?""
As my 5'8" college roommate said, "I'm just as tall as you are, my feet reach all of the way to the ground.
You wouldn't believe it if I told you. As I've said on a number of occasions, why would I spend a lot of time, effort, and money building something that may be shut down by the FTC, as is being threatened by UK regulators?
I don't know, how much is ibofb moving? - April 22, 2008 at 8:31 PM
Should have referred to my FORMER college roommate, I have finished college.
- April 22, 2008 at 8:33 PM
- David Robison said...
Thanks for playing along, I knew you had it in you. As I've said before, you are a cool guy.
I figured the "How tall" question wasn't too personal, at least you didn't get asked the question Rocket asked me over on my blog.
Dave - April 22, 2008 at 9:06 PM
Why DO you spend SO MUCH time and effort blogging on something that might be shutdown by the FTC?
If its not worth building, than its not worth blogging... - April 23, 2008 at 5:37 PM
My main goal is to shut down the tool scam. If the only way that occurs is for the business to be shut down, so be it.
Therefore, it is worth blogging. - April 23, 2008 at 6:16 PM
It seems as if the tools scam is alive and well.
Sure, some diamonds got booted, some quit. Some of the ones that quit took their groups to a new MLM to start a new tools scam.
IMO - it will take a a very tenured pin to be outed before anyon can take the corporation's efforts seriously. - April 23, 2008 at 6:29 PM
It seems as if the tools scam is alive and well. ---- It's alive, it's not well. It's squirming, shifting, and writhing on the ground. All that remains is to step on it's head and cut off the head.
Sure, some diamonds got booted, some quit. Some of the ones that quit took their groups to a new MLM to start a new tools scam. ---- Some Diamonds? How about almost half the IBOAI Board? Former IBOAI Chairs? How about all the high level IBO's before the latest TEAM fiasco? I'm not concerned about other MLM's, fixing A/Q is big enough for me, plus I'm not nearly as knowledgable about the details in other MLM's, so I'm not going to try to address something I don't know enough about.
IMO - it will take a a very tenured pin to be outed before anyon can take the corporation's efforts seriously. ---- If you mean "outed" as in getting terminated, the ones we have are big enough. If you mean "outed" regarding the tool scam facts, that has happened as well. The corporation better be taking the UK seriously, or they are making a serious mistake. - April 23, 2008 at 9:52 PM
Has anyone heard anything about Amway in the UK?
- April 24, 2008 at 11:50 AM
Don't you think if anyone heard anything, everyone would have heard the same by now? That's one of the advantages of the internet, word gets around quickly. It's a large part of why the tool scam is on its way out.
- April 24, 2008 at 6:00 PM
I don't know, seem like amway's good at keeping settlements pretty secret.
The UK decision could be a landmark one. If the corporation gete the boot there, maybe the FTC will look into Quixtar/Amway once again, or better yet look into the AQMOs. - April 24, 2008 at 7:08 PM
There are plenty of court cases that are not secret.
The UK case could be a breakthrough, or it could be a letdown. - April 24, 2008 at 9:17 PM
If the business was changed to the way you would like it to be, what would that look like? Please include both the corp side and their practices as well as the system side. Please don't take to long, but as long as you want(it is, after all, "your" blog:)). I've been reading and following your thoughts for a while, but what I'm still trying to do is get a good handle on what you would like our business to look like. What is your end goal in all this blogging? What specifically would you, Tex, be happy with.
And what would you be happy with, vs. what would you think would make this business the best it could be?
Thanks! - April 26, 2008 at 2:03 PM
Tool profit transparency. Short enough?
- April 26, 2008 at 4:14 PM
- April 28, 2008 at 12:51 AM
Do you agree?
- April 28, 2008 at 9:13 AM
I received the following e-mail message, looks like the Yager tool system is about to be accredited.
Note there is no mention of the tool profits, even though the tools are the major source of profit for the upline and a major source of loss for the vast majority of IBO's, as the accreditation process unfortunately does NOT require tool profits to be disclosed to IBO's or prospects.

Re: Best Practices Message: Acceptance
One of the criteria for accreditation with Quixtar is that
all IBOs understand Quixtar/Amway Global's best practices as explained
through the Quixtar/Amway Global IBO Communications Platform. The following
message is sent in accordance with the Quixtar Professional Development
Accreditation Program.
We often describe this as an I-commerce business. Which
means that this business brings together the Internet, the Individual, the
Independent Business Owner Compensation Plan, and the full-service
Infrastructure provided by Quixtar/Amway Global. It means that anyone can
say, "This is a business I can do." And it also means it's a business open
to everyone.
With a business powered by Quixtar/Amway Global, you don't
have to be of a specific race or religion to have the opportunity to
succeed. You don't have to be affiliated with a certain political party. You
can be married or single, with kids or without, middle-aged or fresh out of
You see, this is an opportunity for anyone who has the will
to work hard and the drive to succeed. As long as we all have the common
goal of building this business bigger and better than ever, and building it
the right way, we can overcome any differences. In fact, we should embrace
our differences, because life would be pretty boring if everyone thought and
acted the exact same way.
It's important to remember that this business is about free
enterprise and the rights of Independent Business Owners to pursue their
dreams. That's a right that shouldn't be denied to anyone, if they're
willing to put forth the effort.
Thanks for all you do to build this business.
For Your Success,
The Yagers - April 30, 2008 at 10:24 AM
Tex, do you know if anyone from the corporation monitors a QMO after it is accredited?
If not, then accreditation is as good as the retail sales rule. - April 30, 2008 at 12:23 PM
From http://www.quixtaraccreditation.com/us-en/criteria.html,
Quixtar reviews all applications based on the above criteria and awards accreditation to individuals and/or organizations that satisfy all requirements. IBOs/organizations are accredited for a two-year period and are reviewed on an ongoing basis to ensure they remain in compliance with Accreditation Program criteria. Any breach of Quixtar's Rules of Conduct or actions that mean an IBO is no longer in good standing could result in revocation of accreditation.
The issue isn't whether they maintain accreditation, the issue is whether initial or ongoing accreditation fixes the biggest problem this business faces in the first place. - April 30, 2008 at 12:26 PM
I "thought" that accreditation required some transparency about the tools profits.
- April 30, 2008 at 12:33 PM
It only requires transparency for those participating in the tool profits, which normally means Platinum and above. Also, I don't expect Platinums to know what Emeralds make, Emeralds to know what Diamonds make, etc. I confirmed this with Quixtar within days of accreditation being announced a couple of years ago, and commented on this issue on qblog.
This results in the tool companies getting the "Good Housekeeping" seal of approval when they don't deserve one. Prospects and IBO's will see the tool company is accredited and think everything is okay, when in fact they are being scammed with the same bait-and-switch scenario as today. - April 30, 2008 at 1:02 PM
Tex, perhaps this tidbit about accreditation would make a good log article.
Seems as though accreditation avoids fixing one of the big issues with the business. - April 30, 2008 at 1:23 PM
All of my comments would make a good blog article, in my humble opinion.

Officially unveiled at IFA in Berlin, the new AX900 series promises "the company's best picture performance" rivalling the TV tech for which Panasonic is best-known: plasma. Also announced was an 85-inch 4K TV and a step-down series of 4K sets.
Meet the best flatscreen TVs designed for the developing world to run on 'off-grid' energy, such as personal solar panels, as named by clean energy initiative Global LEAP.
On Monday, Samsung's curved LED LCD TV arrived at my house, temporarily replacing my beloved flat plasma. My family and I will be living with it for a couple months. Here's what we thought after one day.
In a year that's seen Panasonic giving up on plasma TVs and consumer mobile phones, the Japanese company has finally returned to profit.
In a lightning-quick press conference today, Panasonic unveiled its 2013 lineup of new high- and midrange TVs, home audio speakers, Blu-ray players, and even bone-conducting headphones.
Curious about Ultra HD, also known as "4K"? Here's a quick look at at what you need to know.
At CES in Las Vegas, Panasonic announces a new Xbox-like interface for its new line of Viera LED TVs. The new TVs will recognize the viewer and help customize the experience through features like voice assistant, an info bar, and remote sharing. The company also announced that its new LED TVs will have the same picture quality as its former line of Plasma TVs.
Panasonic is no longer making plasma displays, and judging from its lackluster lineup of new LED LCD models, the company seems destined for a rough 2014 in the TV marketplace.
The ad-skipping DVR's latest software update also improves search to include all possible sources and puts the Dish On Demand options on shelves you can scroll through.
Panasonic throws its hat into the Ultra HD ring with the TH-L65WT600a.

Recorded after Kramsch' 2014 JALT National conference in Tsukuba, Japan
Shona Whyte's insight:
30 minute interview with the top-flight applied linguist - interesting personal background on her experience with English, French, German in Europe and the US, and how personal and practical questions intersected with nascent field of applied linguistics in the 1970s. Soundbite from her JALT plenary: "borders define who we are and distinguish us from others, but can also constrain us." Paradox of globalisation: increased access leads to (illusion of understanding one another, negation of individual uniqueness and so) greater isolation and fragmentation

Rennes, October 2015
According to the ILH, tasks with a higher involvement load are considered to be more effective for word learning and retention than tasks with lower involvement loads. For comparison purposes, each task is assigned a specific number which relates to an involvement load index. Total absence of a factor is assigned 0, a moderate presence is assigned 1 and strong presence is assigned a score of 2. SEARCH EVALUATION For example, if a teacher provides students with some new words and their definitions and asks students to create original sentences with them, the task would be assigned the following involvement load score: The results of the test found that retention of the new vocabulary directly correlated with involvement load. Participants who had completed tasks with the lowest involvement load scored lowest and those who had completed tasks with the highest involvement load scored highest. This provides evidence in support of the ILH.

No point in being pissed at Bobby Orr for something that was inevitable.
Yeah the Orr thing doesn't bother me either. I'm just happy the way the playoffs were set up that the Blues were actually able to go that far back then.

DRIVE IS NEXT WEEK The Christian Association will begin its drive for funds on Monday, Novem- ber 7. Its- budget includes many worth while activities, which will be explained more fully -in chapel talks during the week of the campaign. One of C. A.'s most interesting activi- ties is Bates House, the summer camp for city children at Long Branch, New Jersey. Bates House is a large summer home, set in a big garden, and lent for the purpose by its owner, Mrs. Bates; it accommodates about forty children be- sides the staff. During July and August three groups of pale, shy, slum children are sent from New York or Philadelphia to thrive on the country air, and be re- turned at the end of two weeks, healthy, rosy and uproarious. Six or eight Bryn Mawr students aid the permanent worker and the "noice" (Bates House dialect for "nurse") in taking care of them�teach- ing them games and songs, watching them at the beach, telling stories, and see- ing that they eat their green vegetables. New Chinese School The Yuet Wah Mfddle School, Canton, China, is another worthy project. It was started by Liu Fung Kei, Bryn Mawr, '22, to be a school that was "not for propaganda, for busines;, nor for positions, but for giving the children true education." There are about fifty or sixty pupils, most of them day scho- lars, and they are instructed in modern Chinese and in English. Athletics play an important part in the schedule, and Liu Fung Kei attempts to teach the parents in their care of the children, and to have a high moral standard. The school is in a carefully selected building, but there is need of many improvements which necessitate financial aid. This school has been placed on the budget of C. A. to take the place of the Student Friendship Fund which will have its own campaign, so that we can feel we are CONTINUED ON PAGE 2 BRYN MAWR (AND WAYNE). PA... WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 2, 1927 "New*" Elections . The Collbce News has made two additions to its staff. Jean Fesler, '28, has been elected Con- tributing Editor.

Pacific Problem Yellows Play Circles All Around Varsity Varsity was smothered, 11-6, on Sat- urday by the relentless offensive of the Yellows team. Our defense was slashed into ribbons as time and time again their forward line ripped through for a clear shot at the goal. Al Bruere, defending the cage, was in an unenviable position. She alone had the task of warding off the fierce assaults of the five opposing forwards. In the first half we were hopelessly outclassed. The Yellows, playing as a team, each sure of her position and her intentions, ran circles around our eleven individuals. Each person on Varsity was playing her own game, often brilliantly, but utterly without co-operation with anyone .else. The result was pande- monium. No one seemed to be in the right place at the "right time or to&know where the others were in relation to her- self. The Yellows, no better man for man than we were, made up an efficient machine. - The game was started off with a goal for the Yellows made by Dot Lee (Mrs. Haslam). From that time on the ball ^�as kept up at our end pretty continu- ously. Occasionally one of our forwards would break away for a long run down the field to fail in the circle because of lack of co-operation from the other for- wards. Only Longstreth, who got off several of these pretty runs, played fine heads-up hockey throughout the game. Two more goals for the Yellows; abor- tive lone star attempts on our part. And then Longstreth captured the ball and carried it down to the other goal, for once some teamwork; Wills saw just where she was needed and rushed the ftftir JktK :**'.' ~ � the unusually large cheering section something to ,be really enthusiastic about. Joy was shortlived; CONTINUED ON PAGB i Miss Ely Explains Conference Which She Attended in Honolulu. t _____ In Chapel on Wednesday morning Miss Ely spoke on the conference in Honolulu of the Institute of Pacific Re- lations. This conference, held every two years, was started by Mr. Athcrton. a man concerned, with shipping in the -Pacific. It seemed to him that a con- ference of the countries which used the Pacific for trading would make for a mutual understanding of difficulties, and therefore would promote international peace. The first meeting was held in 1925. The members, men and women inter- ested in international relations for one reason or another, are chosen from ten different countries. Some of them are teachers and missionaries, others are in- terested in questions of race, government, or finance. Most of the delegates went from San Francisco to Hawaii on the boat together, and so became acquainted beforehand. Plenty of reading material on the subjects of the conference was supplied; everyone arrived somewhat prepared. The headquarters were at a preparatory school in Honolulu. Round tables were#held here in the mornings; the afternoons were given over to amuse- ment. Motor trips were made over the island, and there was much bathing, in characteristic national fashion, at the Waikiki beach. Every One Was Frank One of the most impressive things alwut the conference was that people were so frank and honest in their state- ments. In spite of racial difficulties there were very few hurt feelings. Eng- lish was the language used, in deference to the majority. This was harder for the Japanese delegates than any others; the Chinese, spoke fluently and expressively. Curiously enough, the Americans and the British understood each other with great difficulty. The subjects under dis- cussion were mandates, labor, industry, race, communications, and foreign loans. Some of the more prominent of the American members were President Actress and Author German Brother and Sister Visit Here Before Lecture Tojir.

Speaking of the plays they had seen in New York, Miss Mann said that the not-so-good plays here were much better than those of the same class in Berlin, but that there was more serious problem drama abroad. "Here the main object seems to be amusement."

Miss Schenck Talks on Graduate School "Undergraduates have much to gain from contact with graduates," said Miss Schenck. in Chapel, on Friday, October 28th. "I am not suggesting a formula for friendships. Friendships take care of themselves, and those of us who have a long perspective have seen many last- ing ones grow up between these two groups that are said so often by silly people on both sides to be .incompatible. But what I do suggest is that the under- graduates rouse themselves a little earlier than they sometimes do from their ab- sorption with themselves. I believe the fault, if fault there is, lies there. It is a lazy kind of stupidity that keeps you endlessly talking in circles in your own ^mall group when there are new and fresh ideas and personalities and experi- ences with which to come in contact. It is obviously an interesting thing for a CONTINUED ON PAGE 8 "The Question of the Women's Col- leges," as set forth in the Novemlwr Atlantic Monthly, by the heads of seven eastern colleges, and partially reprinted in last week's College News has at- tracted widespread notice and comment. About thirty-five newspaper clippings comprise front page articles and edi- torials viewing the situation from every angle. The commonest solution to the problem offered by these writers is Co-education. They consider it inevitable, and most of them are satisfied. Th'e livening World, however, looks on that with alarm: in an editorial entitled "Lest a Worse Thing Befall!" we read "Here is a prophecy which the deans were not brutal enough to make; girls are not going to stop going to college. If there isn't room and money enough for them at the girls' colleges�there are the big, .finely-en- dowed plants and staffs of instruction at the men's colleges. Co-education is the inevitable, irresistibje answer. So, if the wealthy graduates of these men's colleges want to keep their alma mater free from the women's invasion, they'd better give an endowment thought to Vassar and Smith as well as to Yale and Princeton!" * CONTINUED ON PAGE 3 The chapel service of the Christian Association on Sunday, October 30, was led by Milliccnt Carey,, class of 1920. "There are certain words," said Miss Carey, "which, although they meant a great deal to our fathers and grand- fathers, have disappeared almost entirely from our present-day vocabularies. The word 'sin' is one of them. There is an excellent reason for this: the word 'sin' has no definite connotation to us; we dislike it because it suggests another word shunned by the modern generation �repression. "Individualism is, primarily, the order of the day. In many ways this charac- teristic of our age is a good one. We do not, in general, worry so much about the faults of our associates. Develops Own Standard "There must be, however, some defi- nite standard of right and wrong, which each one of us, as an individual, must de- velop for herself. Too generally do we look at wrong in relation to how it is going to effect other people. If it does not infringe on the happiness of others, we think it of little consequence to our own moral rating. "There are two groups of people to l>e considered here: first, those who are entirely indifferent to conduct except as it affects the individual herself; and sec- ond, those who discuss 'immortality' and 'tragedy' with the idea that their own feeble discussions and conclusions will ultimately solve all the difficulties of life. While they blithely discuss these theories, little do they imagine that 'tragedy' awaits them in the smaller experiences of their brief existence. * " 'Sin' is not extinct; and 'the wages of sin is death." Sophomores Gain Solid, Not Brilliant, Victory 19:10 achieved a victory over 19.11 in a none too brilliant game on Wednesday with a score of 4-1. The passing of both teams was very wild; there was much bunching, and many fouls. Hirsch- berg and Brown were the only efficient Sophomore backs. Ilirschberg, in par- ticular, made some good stops and fol- lowed up well. Longstreth and Stix stood out on the forward line. On the Freshmaq team Blanchard and Sanbornc made several good dribbles down the field, while Baer in the backfield was on the job. Rieser, the Freshman goal, was excellent. The line-up was: 1930� Parkhurst, Longstreth*, Stix**, Sulli- van, Taylor*. (Wilson), Coney, Skid more, Hirschberg, Brown, Houck, E. Smith. 1931�Rieser, Tottcn*, (Moore), Blanchard, Adams, Hobart, Sanbome, Benham, Tatnell, Waples, Baer, Thomp- In Chapel on Monday morning Dean Manning spoke 'briefly on the younger generation. As a subject, she said that it was greatly over-rated, and not nearly as important as many others. Referring to her article in McCttlts Afagaxine, she said that in writing it she had the middle- aged in mind as an audience. But as usual, adjectives and phrases were re- printed out of context, giving a some- what false impression, which she wished to correct. This generation is not any more docile and conservative than any other; it is inevitable that young people should be conservative. Independent thinking can- not be expected of them until they are at least twenty-five. As they are brought up and educated they are taught certain theories and precepts; they require time to compare and consider these before they adopt them or cast them aside. Poat-War Youth Disappointing Although the problems of young people are always much the same, there have l)cen some new ones since nineteen* twenty. It was rather hoped that post- war classes would do great things, because of their freedom from handicaps, their opportunities ior independent, con- structive thinking. But on the whole, they seem scarcely in the frame of mind to take advantage of this. All respon- sibility for leadership in such work is being avoided; little thinking or planning is done. This generation has absorbed from the atmosphere too much of a philosophy which stresses the need for evading personal responsibilities, for ac- quiring experience before we attempt constructive work. This idea has been taken too seriously; the fallacy here is that experience as such has never ad- vanced ^the human race much. The world has always gone forward through the creative urge, the desire to perfect one's craftmanship, to be not only a reporter of emotions and experiences, but a creative l>eing. Unfortunately two de- cisions have come into conflict. We think we have had to choose between doing a job well and experiencing all possible experiences. There arc too many "drink- deepcrs" among us, and they are taken too seriously. The only way the human race has made much progress is by "cul- tivating a few inhibitions," as Dr. Freud advised Lorelei Lee. 1930 Elects Howell, Stokes, Martin, After Cengthy Balloting After long struggles and repeated deadlocks, 1930 at last contrived to elect two of its officers on Wednesday and Thursday of last week, and the third this Tuesday. Agnes Howell was elected President, Olivia Stokes Vice President, and Margaret Martin, Secretary. The delay in the election was partly caused by the i^c^ilUBf^n*- ^-^..^icm was tm.de for the nomination of a defeated candi- date for the next office. Miss Howell was on the committee of five that ran the Freshman Class for the first few weeks last year. In Fresh- man Show she provided a delightfully tuneful and humorous entr'acte. At the beginning of this year she was class song mistress, but resigned when she became President. Miss Stokes was elected ^o the Ex- ecutive Board of Self-Government as second Freshman member. She was captain of 1930's tennis team and playedf in several Varsity matches. * Miss Martin was Hall Representative of Wyndham last year and is Treasurer of the Self-Government Association. Messy Game Ends with Victory for Juniors The Juniors carried away the rather doubtful honors in Wednesday's game against the Seniors by a 6-2 score. Both teams played^very messily, although with plenty of spirit. In the first half neither side functioned as a team; merely eleven individuals, some brilliant and some not. Tuttlc and Loines shone for the Seniors, while Wills, Woodward and Freeman bore the brunt of the battle for 1929. Wills carried the ball well, used her head, and was the only Red forward who hit hard in the circle and rushed the goal. Woodward's defense was consistently dependable. At the end of the half the score was 3-1, due mainly to Wills' -per- sistent attack. N^ There .was noticeably less muddling in the second half and the Juniors' forward* line was*immensely improved. Humph- ries got off some pretty passes in from wing and Friend made nice runs, but lacked the final necessary punch in the circle. Throughout the game Tuttle played brilliantly, but she could not carry her team to victory against the poor support of her own backs and the in- spired work of Freeman at goal. The line-up was: 1928�M. Harrett, M. Fow- ler, H. Tuttle, E. Bethel, B. Loines**, J. Stetson, E. Rhett. C. Field, J. Hud- dieSWBj-i�!*p7biic3,'"?i. lirwere. 1VTC9� B. Humphrey, E. Quimby*, R.

Giving Thanks for Baseball and Family
I have post-it notes on my bathroom mirror, my front door and my computer monitor. They say things like "Understand where you are," "Don't forget to enjoy it," and "Be thankful."
When you work at the Hall of Fame – a place people mark on calendars, plan vacations to and pencil in on bucket lists – I've found that I sometimes overlook what makes Cooperstown so special. I think to all of us here, it sometimes becomes just going to the office. My desk is in the basement, away from the visitors and artifacts – away from the magic. So I feel like I can't always be blamed for forgetting.
If I let myself, I could go weeks without setting foot in the actual Museum. But I don't. In fact over the last few weeks, I've given tours of the Hall to friends. About a month ago it was a Royals security guard and his son. The next week, my friend Keith and his die-hard Tiger fan grandparents. Then two weeks ago it was a high school buddy visiting from New York City. It all served as a reminder of how lucky I am – better than my post-its.
The common thread was family. While my fellow Oak Park High alum was alone, he kept he wants to come back with his father. I'm thankful for my father and the time we've spent together here. He had surgery last Friday to remove a kidney that most likely had a cancerous cyst.
Hopefully the surgery will be the extent of his battle. But I know from my prior experiences, that one of the best medicines are memories to which you can hold close. My dad helped me move here from Kansas City in 2008. We watched playoff baseball during our first night in town and saw Robin Roberts during a Voices of the Game event, then toured the Hall the next day. My family came for Father's Day Weekend in 2010. I played catch with my dad at Doubleday and he got to see me working on the field the same field that was hosting legends like Bob Feller, Harmon Killebrew and Ozzie Smith.
Sports – and specifically baseball – have always been a bond between us. He introduced me to athletics and Boy Scouts. I think he did a pretty good job. I'm an Eagle Scout and worked on the same summer camp staff he did. Now I work at the Hall of Fame after two years with the Royals.
Since tomorrow is Thanksgiving, a few of the other things I'm thankful for are: The fact that I'm in Los Angeles right now with my fiancée and we could go to the beach while it might be snowing in Cooperstown; the Royals – if I get to attend my first All-Star Game in KC next summer that will make my 2012 list; and as a uniform geek the Mets and Blue Jays for ditching black. I'm thankful for a seven-game World Series – despite the Cardinals winning it. I give thanks for the game's greats, especially my favorite Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig and my favorite Gehrig stat which I try to shoe-horn into every Memories and Dreams, social media post or even casual conversation about him. I'm thankful for stars like Justin Verlander, who can hit triple digits in the seventh and eighth; for movies like Bull Durham, Major League and one of my new favorites Moneyball (so sue me, I'm a stat geek, I loved the book, and I hope Brad Pitt wins the Oscar).
But mostly this year, I'm thankful for my family and for my dad.
Oh, I couldn't leave it like that. That Lou Gehrig stat: Despite playing in 2,130 consecutive games without taking a day off, when they x-rayed his hands in the late 1930s, they found 17 healed fractures. I'm blown away by that.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Trevor Hayes is the editorial production manager at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

A tension headache is pain or discomfort in your head, scalp, or neck. Tension headache is a common type of headache. It can occur at any age, but is most common in teens and adults.
A tension headache occurs when neck and scalp muscles become tense, or contract. The muscle contractions can be a response to stress, depression, a head injury, or anxiety.
Hot or cold showers or baths may relieve a headache for some people. You may also want to rest in a quiet room with a cool cloth on your forehead.
If your headaches are due to stress or anxiety, you may want to learn ways to relax.
Over-the-counter pain medicine, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or acetaminophen, may relieve pain. If you are planning to take part in an activity that you know will trigger a headache, taking pain medicine beforehand may help.
Follow your health care provider's instructions about how to take your medicines. Rebound headaches are headaches that keep coming back. They can occur from overuse of pain medicine. If you take pain medicine more than 3 days a week on a regular basis, you can develop rebound headaches.
Be aware that aspirin and ibuprofen can irritate your stomach. If you take acetaminophen, do not take more than a total of 3,000 mg a day to avoid liver damage.
Knowing your headache triggers can help you avoid situations that cause your headaches. A headache diary can help. When you get a headache, write down the following:
Review your diary with your doctor to identify triggers or a pattern to your headaches. This can help you and your doctor create a treatment plan. Knowing your triggers can help you avoid them.
Lifestyle changes that may help include:
If you are prescribed medicine to prevent headaches or help with stress, follow instructions exactly on how to take them. Tell your doctor about any side effects.

I absolutely love this ring. The color of Alexandrite is so pretty...you see reds, purples, greens, blues all intermixed and changing depending on the kind of light that is shining upon it. And the style of ring is very elegant. This is probably the prettiest ring Ive owned to date (outside of my wedding ring, of course!). I would definitely do business again with you!

Just got my princess cut Alexandrite ring for my girlfriend. probably the speediest service i have ever encountered. the ring looked fantastic! the band seems sturdy, and i can always upgrade in the future. The Alexandrite is flawless! even under magnification, inclusions are almost non existant. the color change is very vivid and VERY abrupt when light changes. I opened the case under the light from a window and the depth and saturation of teal and green blew me back a bit. i put it under incandescents and the purple is deep and majestic. the stone makes this ring. excellent Alexandrite. definitely a worthy purchase. hopefully the girlfriend likes it :-) thank you - Justin

Designed to allow the High Line to pass beneath it, the 18-story Standard hotel was constructed using sculptural piers that raise the building 57 feet above the street grid. New York–based Ennead Architects accentuated the hotel's distinctive presence with a central "hinge" that divides the structure's two slabs.
Jury: "The building addresses the urban scale as a tower relating to the High Line [and the Hudson River]. … There is clarity in the choice and articulation of materials and a sense of restraint, though the end result is one of high visual impact."
Client: "I usually renovate older buildings, and this was ground-up construction. Add to that the matter of the High Line and it was a unique challenge … We had to be sensitive to this new landmark. It tramples through our site, but it also defines it. That said, we wanted to not be overly shy or reverent toward it. Whatever we put up there would have to jump the train tracks." —André Balazs, owner, as told to Vanity Fair
