Albina Ministerial Alliance Coalition for Justice and Police Reform--Take Action!
The City of Portland is appealing U.S. District Judge Michael Simon's court order, which requires the City to appear at annual hearings assessing implementation of the Settlement Agreement between the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) and the City of Portland. The Settlement Agreement seeks to address allegations that the Portland Police Bureau has engaged in a pattern and practice of excessive force against community members with mental health issues or perceived to be in mental health crisis.While the City claims the appeal seeks "clarification" on the "frequency, scope, procedure, and evidentiary burdens" that the Court can apply in those hearings -- including what evidence can be brought forward by the parties, including the Portland Police Association and the Albina Ministerial Alliance (AMA) Coalition for Justice and Reform -- the paperwork filed clearly shows the City intends to challenge the Judge's authority to hold those hearings at all and to ask questions about implementation of the Agreement.
Sign our petition calling on the Portland City Council to Rescind The Appeal!
If the Council is truly committed to reform and accountability, an annual hearing with Judge Simon is essential to rebuilding trust with the the citizens of Portland.
Take a Stand with Basic Rights against Discrimination
This week's Hobby Lobby Supreme Court decision sets a dangerous precedent, by allowing certain corporations to impose their religious beliefs on their employees, or to use religion to discriminate against certain employees.
Stand with Basic Rights Oregon against any attempts to allow corporations to discriminate. Add your voice to the chorus of Oregonians who say discrimination has no place in our state.
Tell NOM to Stay Out of Oregon
Anti-gay extremists are targeting Oregon, pledging to use their secret money to stop us from winning the freedom to marry. In a fundraising email, the anti-gay National Organization for Marriage (NOM) announced the creation of the "Win More States Fund" and specifically described it a "vehicle to allow us to devote even more resources to the cause" of excluding loving and committed couples in Oregon from the freedom to marry.
Sign our pledge to tell anti-gay extremists to stay out of Oregon.
NOM is the national organization that runs the campaigns to exclude loving and committed couples from marriage. NOM parachutes into states with bundles of cash, often spending millions of dollars attacking our families.
As Oregonians, we believe in treating others as one would want to be treated, and that that includes allowing civil marriage for gay and lesbian couples. Gay and lesbian couples want to marry for similar reasons as anyone – to make a public promise of love, responsibility and lifetime commitment, to stand in front of family and friends, make a lifetime of commitment, and share the joys and sorrows that life can bring. None of us would want to be told it's illegal to marry the person we love.
Support Tuition Equity: Vote for SB 742
Tuition Equity (Senate Bill 742) is simply a matter of ensuring that every Oregonian who wishes to pursue an education is able to do so free of unfair treatment and discrimination. This legislation will make it possible for every Oregon student to pay in-state tuition, regardless of their immigration status.
The bill would capitalize on the taxpayer investment in K-12 students and move engaged young immigrants toward citizenship, and will boost the education level of the workforce in Oregon.
The Oregon State Senate voted 18 to 11 to pass Senate Bill 742, Oregon's Bipartisan Tuition Equity Bill. The bill is now awaiting approval from the Oregon State House of Representatives.
We need to take action immediately to ensure that your State Representative signs on to the discharge petition for Tuition Equity.
You can find you Representative's contact information HERE.
Although calling their office is the best method to contact your State Representatives, please feel free to use our online form below to sign on to the petition that will be delivered to them. Enter your zip code, and the online form will appear and once completed, will be sent to your individual Representative.
Stop Exporting Hate
"Our campaign was like a nuclear bomb against the gay agenda in Uganda" -Scott Lively Send a Clear Message to Scott Lively and equality opponents . . .
Sign our petition today to stand with the gay and transgender community in Uganda and send a clear message to Scott Lively and U.S. anti-gay activists: "Stop Exporting Hate!"
In 2009, Lively, along with two other American equality opponents s, were featured speakers at a three-day "gay agenda" conference in Uganda where he made direct parallels between gay and lesbian people and the Nazi movement. Lively claimed "homosexuals are so far from normalcy that they are killers…they are serial killers….they are mass murderers…they're sociopaths."
Scott Lively is a former leader of the Oregon Citizen's Alliance, the anti-gay organization responsible for proposing the failed Measure 9 initiative that would have amended the Oregon Constitution with a provision that the state establish homosexuality "as abnormal, wrong, unnatural, and perverse."
A month after his visit to Africa and with the drafting help of the conference's organizers, a Ugandan politician introduced "The Anti-Homosexuality Bill of 2009," that would punish homosexual behavior with the death sentence."
The Vote to End DADT Expected!
Tell the U.S. Senate to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell!"
The U.S. Senate is scheduled to vote within 24 hours on repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" – but the right wing has threatened to block the vote by any way they can.
We need your help to make sure our Senators vote to repeal this unjust policy and to make sure the vote goes forward.
Please, fill out the form below and tell your friends to show their support.
ENDA Can't Wait!
Thanks to the leadership of Oregon's fair-minded elected officials, Oregonians are protected from employment discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. But not every state benefits from those protections.
In 30 states, it is perfectly legal to fire an employee simply because of their sexual orientation. And in 38 states, it is legal to fire employees solely because of their gender identity or expression. According to a recent survey by the National Center for Transgender Equality, an astonishing 97% of transgender Americans have experienced discrimination or harassment on the job.
That's why every state needs the non-discrimination protections we have here in Oregon.
Thank Oregon's Representatives & Senators for their support of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, share why non-discrimination matters to you, and ask them to make ENDA a top priority today.
(No Title)
The time has come for elected leaders to empower all Americans, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. We call on the Obama administration to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). Everyone should have the opportunity to make a lifelong commitment to the person that they love and be married.
Sign the petition to urge the Obama administration to repeal the so called Defense of Marriag Act.
Tell Congress to Repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell!
Tell Congress to vote YES to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell!"
Congress is scheduled to vote this week on repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" – but the right wing's barrage of e-mails and calls opposing repeal has already started.
We need your help to drown them out and show Congress that a majority of Americans want this discriminatory law repealed – once and for all.
To do that, Congress needs to see an immediate and overwhelming show of support for repeal.
Please, fill out the form below and tell your friends to show their support.

Mutual Funds
Planning for your retirement and financial future can be a very daunting task. First and foremost there are a great deal of variables that you have to consider. What level of living standard will you expect in your retirement? What kind of medical expenses will you face? Do you want to be able to leave something behind for your children? What unforeseeable expenses might you face in the time between now and your retirement. These are only a few of the variables for you to consider. Mutual funds are one of the many ways in which you can save for the future. Unlike many retirement plans they can be accessed before a certain age limit without tax penalties.
What are Mutual Funds?
Simply put mutual funds are nothing more than a diverse collection of stocks and bonds. There are financial institutions that focus primarily on mutual fund investments. When you wish to invest in mutual funds you will give these companies a lump sum of money which will then be used to invest in a wide range of companies and stocks. All mutual funds will have a time limit and a guaranteed level of return. There are also two classifications of mutual funds: safe and risky. Generally speaking risky mutual funds can yield more money at the risk of loosing some over time. Safe mutual funds are more predictable and will make less money.
Advantages of Mutual Funds
Professional management - By far the biggest advantage of investing in a mutual fund is having your money managed professionally. Managing your own stock portfolio can be extremely stressful and take up a great deal of your time. By working with a mutual find company you can leave managing your stock portfolio to a team of dedicated financial professionals. Another way of putting it is that they are a relatively inexpensive way to for a small investor to hire a full time professional manager to manage your funds.
Access to powerful resources - One thing a mutual fund company has that an individual investor will never have is powerful financial resources. When you invest in a mutual fund you will essentially hand your money over to financial professionals that not only understand the market but are constantly doing research in order to find the best and newest market to better utilize your hard earned money.
Diversification - Owning shares of a mutual fund is generally speaking much more safe than owning socks and bonds in an individual company. Even the smallest and most basic mutual funds will still be spread out over more than a dozen companies. Should the value of one or even 5 of these companies fall the hit would be less severe than if you had all your money in a single company that takes a hit.
Simplicity - Buying into a mutual fund is incredibly easy and requires very little attention once it has been set in motion. On top of this it is an easy way to make money over time. Even with a minimum purchase of a few hundred dollars you can make significant gains on a monthly basis. Due to its simplicity and guaranteed returns, mutual funds are an essential part of any financial planning or retirement plan.

Volume yill.- No. 9. BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1921 Price 10 Cents WEEK-END MATTER SETTLED IN SELF-GOVERNMENT MEETING Faculty Resolutions Accepted By Unanimous Vote ^Discussion of the vote of the faculty on the question of week-ends' took place at a Self-Government meeting held in Taylor Hall on November 22. A motion to accept the resolutions of the faculty and to make the Association for Self-Government "the recognized agency for dealing with the matter of week-ends" was passed unani- mously by the .meeting. On the basis of a recommendation frbm the'Committee on Curriculum, the faculty voted that, "It is the. sense of the faculty that the whole problem of week-ends is so impor- tant in its educational bearing, that it is essentially a matter in which the faculty has responsibilities. Trfe faculty is con- cerned in the disposition which the students make of their free time only in so far as it affects their attitude toward their Col- lege work. It is the judgment of the fac- ulty that continuous residence is an impor- tant factor, in the educational system of Bryn Mawr College. "The faculty, therefore, adopts the fol- lowing resolution^: "1. In so far as the use of week-ends is important in its educational aspect it is essentially a matter for which the faculty is continuously responsible. "2. The faculty approves of the recom- mendation of the president and dean of the College that in view of the vote of the Undergraduate Association (May, 1921) the regulation of week-ends be re- considered. "3. The faculty, having noted the ten- dency toward an abuse of week-ends, wel- comes the above recognition by the stu- dents of the value of continuous residence. Inasmuch as effective control by the stu- dents themselves would be of more ,real advantage to the College than any regula- tion by authority, the faculty is prepared to leave the whole matter in the hands of the students, either for direct regulation through any of their recognized agencies or for indirect control by building a suf- ficiently strong and intelligent public' opin-' ion on the question. The faculty, there- fore, undertakes that for the present there shall be no regulation, direct or indirect, initiated by the faculty or any of its offi- cers and that all regulations recently pro- mulgated shall be at once withdrawn. "4. The faculty stipulates, however, that in order to provide data for a correct understanding for the effect of over-night absences* on academic work a special re- port shall be kept of all over-night ab- sences (not only at week-ends) by the studqnts, otherwise in such a way as may be arranged by the faculty. In either case the record shall be accepted as official, not subject to challenge on the score of cor- rectness. Copies of each month's record shall be furnished to the dean of the Col- lege for the faculty, and to the secretary of the Senate. "5. This action of the faculty is with- out prejudice to thie rights of the Senate." The Self-Government voted unanimously that, "In view of the resolutions of the faculty adopted at their meeting on No- vember 16, and inasmuch as they are pre- pared to leave the matter of week-ends in the hands of the students, the Students' Association for Self-Government be the recognized agency for dealing with the matter and that a special record be kept of all over-night absences for the faculty." EDITOR OF LONDON "MERCURY" ENGLISH CLUB SPEAKER Finest Poetry is Found in Regular Verse Forms, Mr. Squire Believes Mr. J. C. Squire, editor of the London Mercury *and a poet and writer of long experience, spoke on "Poetry" last Fri- day evening in Taylor Hall, under the auspices c^i the English Club. Poetry, Mr. Squire defined as the en- tire body of work' inherited from all the writers of all countries and all ages, which has achieved immortality and which people have agreed to call poetry. "This is not a real definition," Mr. Squire commented; "but a snake with its tail in its mouth." <Of the qualities common to this entire body of work, Mr. Squire found regularity of rhythm the most im- portant. "I don't think we need regard this emphasis as a very marvelous thing. There seems good reason to suppose that there is a link between a kind of regularity in speech and a state of more than usually rntense emotion. If you examine the work of a prose writer you find that when in the course of a narra- tive he comes to a point at which his emotions are unusually intense, the movement of prose tends to rise to the movement of verse." The finest prose passages, those always chosen for the anthologies, are those most like poetry, Mr. Squire said. A second quality noticeable in study- ing poetry is the perpetual recurrence of the same themes. "The vital force in poetry is intense emotion and if you ex- amine human life it is only to be ex- pected that again and again "the same things are treated, because again and again men have been moved by the sajlic simple things. Not only is the moral landscape largely the same as it always was but the physical landscape remains for the .most part unchanged. However much we may wish the sun the moon and the stars to be replaced by other objects less hackneyed, those objects, nevertheless, remain the same. Poet Mutt Write 8incerely "Let the poet write sincerely; let him find what garment best suits his thought. If he produces the genuine article you will find that he may have produced free perse, but he will not over-step the border- line and write free prose as many mod- ern writers do." Out of the entire body of-Walt Whitman's* work, Mr. Squire finds the same few are always chosen for anthologies, such ones as "Captain, my Captain," and "When Lilacs First in the Door-Yard Bloom." "Here is a man," said Mr. Squire, "who set out to be rather revolutionary. But everyone agrees that he wrote best when he wrote most like other people. I'm not to be taken as suggesting that it is desirable to confine yourself to the traditional sub- jects or always advisable to do so. We are all delighted when we find ourselves moved by a theme not often treated in poetry, or a word before considered un- poetical or even unmusical. But that must happen naturally." Some day the Ford car will come into the sphere of poetry, Mr. Squire believes, in the way many other laughable things have come �because some writer had to write sincerely. At the English Club reception Mr. A. O. Hurlburt, a contributor to Punch, spoke informally. . ', Freshmen Pledge $100 The net results of'the Sophomore's sacrifice of flowers in the interest of the Students' Friendship Fund at the time of theft play is over $100 from the Freshman class alone, according' to E. Vincent, '23, chairman of the Christian Association Finance Com- mittee. The results from othe,r classes are -less, easy to tabulate, since in many cases�pledges were simply added to the Association pledge cards at the time of the drive, or have not yet been handed in. That they amount to $50 at least is, in Miss Vincent's opinion, almost certain. Bryn Mawr's total contribution to the Student Friendship Fund is cal- culated to be over $1200. TYLTYL AND MYTYL, FRESHMEN, HUNT FOR BLUE BIRD IN SHAPE OF MERIT OWL IN SENIOR RECEPTION SKIT ,* VARSITY SUBDUES MERION 5-3 AFTER EVENLY MATCHED GAME MEMBER FROM 1925 ELECTED TO SELF GOVERNMENT Marianna Bonnel has been elected as the member from 1925 on the Self-Gov- ernment Executive Board. Miss Bonnel went to the Walnut Hill School, where she was president of her class Senior year. Tenacity and Teamwork-Spell Victory' for Brown Players After a long, hard fight on a muddy field Varsity, overcame Merion last Sat- urday with a score of 5-3.' Both teams lacked organization and owing to the slipperiness were unable to make much of long, hard shots. The fight put up by Merion was spectacular from the start and gave them the- lead during the first part of the game. Miss Forstall's active work on the left wing personified Merion's stick-to-it- iveness throughout the match. She was responsible for the first goal of the game, made after a long, speedy run down the field. The strength of both teams lay on that side and E. Anderson and M. Tyler combined constantly on passes, usually clearing the fullback if not blocked by Miss Minor at left half, who fought staunchly to feed her wing. They were unable to effect anv goals in the first half but F. Begg at left inside shot the ball in for Bryn Mawr's first tally after a scrimmage in the circle. Again Miss Forstall got away with it and after a bit of desperate scrapping with A. NicH right halfback, and H. Rice, fullback, pushed in Merion's second goal, leaving the scoring 2-1 in the visitors' favor at the end of the half. Opening the second period D. Lee, center forward on Varsity, tied the score after a fast dribble from the fifty yard line ending in a clear goal. The ' play again centered in the Bryn Mawr circle and the concerted effort of the team in a hot skirmish netted another tally. Miss Bigelow, at right inside, then accom- plished an answering goal for Merion. But for the valiant work of the opposing half and fullback the speedy left wing would have broken the tie for Merion at this point, but the ball passing to Bryn Mawr territory stayed there for the re- mainder of the game, D. Lee and E. Anderson netting the last two goals. (Continued on Pace 4) KINDLER TO PLAY IN MOZART RECITAL HERE NEXT MONDAY Hans Kindler, the well-known cellist, Rotnain Verney, Thaddeus Rich and Horace Alwyne, ^associate professor of music, will play Mozart's piano quartet in G minor at the lecture recital in the gymnasium next Monday evening. This is the second of a series of lecture re- citals given by the Musical Department this winter. Mr. Surette, before each program, gives a sketch* of the life of the composer whose work is being played. Clever Take-Off and Cot turning Win Audience's Praise Freshmen Also Present PunfulDrama With Great Effect Specially Contributed It was a transformed gymnasium into which the Freshmen were ushered by the Seniors last Saturday night. Soft lights, blue streamers, swaying, lanterns, balloons and birds, combined with the music of a real orchestra to augur well for a festive evening. The. Freshmen began the festivities. Their skit, entitled "And the Lamp Went Out," followed the inevitable tradition of Freshman skits in being the pantomime of a read story. Though the acting was all on the highest skit level, C. Remak, as Herbet Vanderslyce, the villain, was per- haps the most remarkable. H. Smith is also highly to be commended for her ac- tivities behind the scenes, as she alone produced the thunderstorm, the moonrise and the siren shriek, while D. Lee ?ex- tinguished the lamp successfully by crawl- ing out with the table on which it was set into the wings. The skit abounded in dramatized puns, as when Mrs. De Vere "swept into the room" with a broom, or when Evelyn literally "took her mother's arm" and walked out. These were so well done, and the whole skit moved so quickly and easily, that from the laughter of the audience one would not suspect the pun of being a humble form of humor. The characters were as follows: Mrs. De Vere, M. Constant; Evelyn De Vere, M. Hanson; Ralph Grayson, E. Lawrence; Herbert Vanderslyce, C. Remak; Reader, Edith Walton'; property man and noises, H. Smith. Senior Skit Parodies "Blue Bird" "The Quest After the Merit Owl," an ingenious parody of the "Blue Bird," by 1922, which followed the Freshman skit, - wa$ the story of Tyltyl and Mytyl, ,the Freshman class, assisted in their search for the elusive merit by Sugar, Light, Dog and the C. A. 'Fairy. As the children F. Bliss and J. Burgess were a well-matched pair, not only, reciting their lines in uni- son, but dressed as nearly alike as possible. A. Gabel, M. Kennard, V. Liddell and E Gabell, as the Terrier, Sugar, Light and Fire could hardly have been equaled in ap- pearance, both as Blue Bird characters and as the coUegiatc figures which they were made to represent. The best acting in the skit was undeniably K. Peek's, who, as Cousin Alys, gave a lifelike and complete interpretation of a difficult character. S. Hand as Night had an even more difficult part, and. depended on less subtle character- ization for her effect For those who saw her in Banner Show last year, her acting was apt to be a little disappointing. Of the choruses, the quartet of busts was the most original, though it was more amusing orfthe hop in and out, than dur- ing its actual speeches. With the excep- tion of the three roped laVies in Night's Council the rest of the characters were not out of the common run of college skit personages. Tfie Costume and Scenery Committees are to be particularly'congratulated on the scene in which Light stood at the top of Senior steps. Her blue costume, illuminated with a deep fringe of silver strips, and her flaming halo, showed a touch of genius in their design. The entrance of Night in her automobile, constructed from the infirmary wheelchair, was also a coup deserving mention. The cast of characters was: (Continued on Pace 5) �'

Bang, of 1930. .Chief among the Graduate awards an- nounced last Friday in Chapel by Miss Park is the Helen and Cecile Robel Fel- lowship, founded in 1980 and already -awarded six times, which this year goes1 to Roberta Douglas Cornelius of Lynch- burg. Virginia. Miss Cornelius graduated from the Randolph-Macon College and was awarded her M. A. at the University of Chicago. From 19ll-:.�fi she was an instructor and Adjunct and Associate Professor in English at Randolph-Macon. .This year she is a Fellow in English at Bryn Mawr Professor Carleton Brown says that "Miss Cornelius' special faculty lies in her ability to apply intelligence to the laborious process of research. She stud- ies but she also thinks, and when she is thinking she also perceives. As a result she seldom has taken a problem in hand without making some contribution towards its solution." The Helene and Cecile Robel Fellow- ship is very elastic. Of the value of $1500, it may be held in any center of -education" or as a traveling fellowship. It is not necessary that it aid study for a degree but may be used in any way the holder may choose with the approval of the faculty. Mrs. Workman Leaves New Fellow- ship. This year the Faculty awards a new fellowship made possible by the thought- ful generosity of Fanny Bullock Work- man and her husband. Dr. W. Hunter Workman. The Fanny Bullock Work- man Scholarship Fund of the value of $30,000 provided for in her will has been placed at the immediate disposal of Bryn Mawr College by Dr. \V. Hunter Work- man. In accordance with the terms of tne bequest and with the approval of Dr. Workman, the income of the fund, $1500 will be devoted to a graduate fellowship awarded annually by the faculty of Bryn Mawr College and to be held during a year of study or research abroad.

WELLS GETS A FELLOWSHIP Will Study German Municipal Government Since the War. F. DE LACUNA WINS EUROPEAN FELLOWSHIP, TOPPING ALL RECORDS WITH 304 POINTS FROM MEMORIAL FUND Dr. Roger Hewes WellS^_Associate Professor of Politics at Bryn Mawr, has been awarded a Fellowship by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Founda- tion. Dr. Wells is one of fifty-three scholars from all parts of the country to receive such an award, out of eleven hundred who were considered. This foun- dation was established by former Senator and Mrs. Guggenheim as a memorial to a son who died- in 1922. The Fellowships go to students who have demonstrated unusual capacity for productive scholar- ship, for use in research on some definite subject. ' Municipal Government in the German Common wealth will be thf topic to which Dr. Wells intends to devote himself. "I discovered in giving my seminary on municipal government." said Dr. Wells to a representative of the College News. "that there is no material in English, available for students, covering the post- war period in Germany. While much at- tention is paid to the Federal Govern- ment, the German cities are noticed only when they float a new bond issue. The republican form by which Germany is now governed has caused a modification more or less of the municipal govern- ment." Dr. Wells will make Berlin his head- quarters because of its excellent library facilities, anf! Iiecause he can then. also, confer with Professor Walther Nordon. a German authority on the subject. Field trips will also be necessary because, as in this country, there is considerable variety among the different cities. Dr. Wells plans to spend all of the year 1927-28 abroad.

March 31st, on Shaw's drama. � Dr. Henderson's talk will be of two- fold interest,�as a comparison with Miss Drew*s talk which stressed Shaw, the moralist, and also as a background for the Theatre Guild production of Pygma- lion which will be given in, Philadelphia the week beginning April 4th, with the original New York cast. As an authority in the strangely diverse fields of mathematics and the drama, Dr. Henderson is indeed an unusual ngure. He is the author of numerous works on these as well as other subjects, including Mark Twain, George Bernard Shaw.

VARSITY GUARDS SHINE Youiyg to Lead Self-Government -Supported by Able Retinue The Self-Govemment Association has elected Josephine Young for President, Virginia Atmore for Vice-President, Magdalen Hupfel for Senior member and Alexandra Dalziel for first Junior member. ' Miss Young was one of- the class Chairmen Freshman year as well as Freshman member of the Self-Govem- ment Board.

She has been captain and manager of class water-polo and played on the Va'rsity Hockey team last year. Varsity outpointed Temple, 38-34, in the basketball game Saturday morning. Although close the game was not nearly so thrilling as the Baltimore and Swarth- more games of the past two weeks: the playing was not as fast nor the spirit of rivalry as keen. In the first half Temple's passing and teamwork were obviously better than ours, but Huddleston's and Freeman's really marvelous guarding kept us in the lead. Their forwards had the ball far more often than we did but they could not make use of their opportunities. All the players on both sides stuck to their opponents admirably, but our guards were unquestionably the oustanding players. The end of the half came and we led 15-8. * The second half consisted of a steady succession of goals* First one side would pop the ball in and then the other. And so they jockeyed to the finish. Temple's basket ability improved: they crept up to within one point of us. Lojcres snatched us out of danger with two long, clean goals. Then a beautiful looping shot by Temple. Another. And so it went; but always we kept slightly in the lead. When the whistle blew the count was 38-34 in our favor. The line-up was: Bryn Mawr � Loines, 22221-22222: Johnson, 222-2222221; Dean, Walker, Freeman, Huddles ton. Temple�Allen. 2-2; Bender, 22222211- 111111; Beatty, 222-22; Templeton. Rick- ard, Gunson. Subs.�McCormick, Lom- bard. TWO SUMMAS IN 1927 Smashing all j>revious scholastic rec- ords bv a margin of over twenty honor points, Frederica Ann is Lopez de Leo de I.aguna was awarded the fortieth Euro- pean Fellowship of Bryn Mawr College by President Park on behalf of the Fac- ulty in Chapel last Friday morning. The European Fellowship, which pro- vides for a year of study abroad in any country and in any university, according to the holder's. discretion, is awarded each year to a member of the Senior Class who "by her college record, by the qual- ity of her work, her promise of con- structive ability, intellectual interest and jjeadiness of purpose shows the fairest promise as well as the finest perform- ance." It was founded in 1889 when the tirst class graduated and has been awarded ever since. Former Record 279 Honor Points. Be hire the honor point system went into effect, the highest numerical record was held by Cora. Hardy Jarrett in 1899 with an average of 93.45. Translated into honor points this would be 258�as Miss Park pointed out�the same record held by the third student of the class of 1927. Since 1899 the highest record is held by Dorothy Burr, 1923, with 279 honor points. This record was almost equalled in 1926 by Delia Smith, with 278 honor points. Frederica de Laguna. however, has .104 honor points on 105 hours and 322 honor ^ points if her extra hours of college credit are reckoned. Throughout her college career she has obtained no grade below Credit, and she has only seventeen hours of Credit in all with the rest High Credits. Miss Park said that this numer- ical display was completely unimportant in comparison with the mental qualities which lay behind it, "brilliance of mind, ease and accuracy of attack on her work, and to back it all and turn it from glitter to gold, steadiness and unflagging inter- est." Since Miss de Laguna was prepared at the Phebe Anna Thorne School and since both her mother and her father are pro- fessors in Philosophy at Bryn Mawr, Miss de Uguna with her scholastic achievement has indeed shown herself "a daughter of the regiment." Faculty Praises Pillsbury. Miss Park said that the Faculty in a special vote Thursday evening directed her to speak of Miss Margaret Elizabeth Pillsbury's four years of continuous work in Mathematics with special appli- cation to Chemistry which showed her CONTINUED ON PAOB 6 Lantern Elects The Lantern takes great pleasure in announcing that Elizabeth Bige- low and Frances Frenaye, of 1930. have been elected to the editorial board Will Compare English and French Literatures M.

A volvulus is a twisting of the intestine that can occur in childhood. It causes a blockage, and may cut off blood flow and damage part of the intestine.
Childhood volvulus
A birth defect called intestinal malrotation can make infants more likely to develop a volvulus. However, a volvulus can occur without malrotation.
Volvulus due to malrotation often occurs early in life, usually in the first year.
Symptoms are usually severe enough that infants are taken early to the emergency room, which can be critical for survival.
Emergency surgery is needed to repair the volvulus. A surgical cut is made in the abdomen. The bowels are untwisted and the blood supply restored.
If a small segment of bowel is dead from a lack of blood flow (necrotic), it is removed. The ends of the bowel are sewn back together. Or, they are used to form a connection of the intestines to the outside, through which bowel contents can be removed (colostomy or ileostomy).
Diagnosing and treating volvulus quickly generally leads to a good outcome.
If the bowel is dead (necrotic), the outlook is poor. The situation may be life-threatening, depending on how much of the bowel is dead.
This is an emergency condition. The symptoms of childhood volvulus develop quickly and the child becomes severely ill. Get medical attention immediately.

240 apartments for rent in Tallahassee, FL
Forum Tallahassee 2525 W Tennessee Street, Tallahassee, FL 32304 Map1 BR - 4 BR$559 - $1,149(850) 634-0431
When you think of Tallahassee Florida, you probably think, "the capital city of Florida" or perhaps, "the Florida State Seminoles." But Tallahassee features scenic roads, lakes, springs, and beautiful Crape Myrtles. It is a lovely city with tons of Southern charm.
Students play a huge role in the Tallahassee community. Florida State University (FSU), established in 1851, was originally named the West Florida Seminary, then the Florida State College for Women. FSU is known for its performing arts department and its college football.
Those that color themselves in garnet and gold are not the only ones that make up this city's student population. Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University (FAMU) is a historical African American College that was established in 1887. Other schools in Tallahassee include Tallahassee Community College (TCC), Keiser College, and branches of Saint Leo University, Barry University, and Flagler College.
Several annual events taking place in Tallahassee include the Springtime Tallahassee Parade and the Fourth of July Festival. Tallahassee is home to some great restaurants, from casual to 5-star. After you've selected your Tallahassee apartment, be sure to check out Mozaik Restaurants, Looper's Super Subs, Food Glorious Food, and Hopkins Eatery.
Looking to do some shopping? Visit the Governor's Square Mall, the Tallahassee Mall, Rag Junkie, Blue Abaco, or Cole Couture.

Extending your House
Having an extension on your house can be a very trying time. You have the builder in knocking walls about creating mess and not to mention, your house is not your own, it's a work site but it's all worth it in the end.
Loft conversions are a great way of adding value to your property as this gives you an extra room in your house which instantly puts value on your property. Let me tell you my experience with having a 2 story extension on the back of my house. It was a trying time as i said but i had to bite my tongue, my husband was always on edge as the builders would be just getting on with the work and he was trying to make sure that they were doing it properly. 6 weeks it took them to build on the back of my house and, let me tell you, having the back of your house wide open to everyone and the elements is scary. We budgeted our money carefully and told the builders that we would not be spending any more so they had better had got i right the first time with the costs. 2 weeks passed and my house was becoming a nightmare with all the stuff and clutter lying around. I said to my husband we will need storage so i jumped on Google and typed in self storage London i just grabbed the first storage company i could find as it was only going to be for a couple of weeks. After that there was a huge change with me and my husband, we could breath again and could start to relax. Lesson learnt If you are thinking of building and extension on your house then make sure you compensate for the lack of room in your house, it's surprising how much the lack of space can drive you crazy, make sure you check out about storage as there is so many different options that you have

Pleasant, spicy and elegant.
Régis Camus joined Charles Heidsieck in 1994 and has been the head winemaker of the House since 2002. This meticulous and passionate professional likes to keep an eye on everything: the state of the vineyards, the selection of the grapes, their pressing and their vinification, cru by cru, in individual vats. His mission is to perpetuate the Charles Heidsieck style, reflecting the richness of the Champagne region.
Each lot of wine is treated separately to respect its unique flavor profile. This approach starts in our vineyards and continues in the cellar. We keep some lots in cool-temperature stainless steel to maintain fresh, crisp aromas and fruit flavors; and age some lots in a combination of French barrels.
Floral bouquet nose with a dominance of honeysuckle. Muscat is the defining/alluring factor in the aroma of this wine. Enters round with a Chardonnay weight to it then quickly lightens up to reveal the additional varietals. Sauvignon Blanc adds an herbal element while the Viognier adds a spicy character. The Chardonnay brings weight mid palate and Muscat adds an undeniable honey character to finish things off.
The "conundrum", or puzzle, of this wine is in guessing which grapes make up the blend; a combination that includes Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Muscat Canelli, Semillon and Viognier. Conundrum is a true California wine, with grapes sourced from Napa, Monterey, Santa Barbara and Tulare counties. Winemaker Jon Bolta began to craft the style for Conundrum in 1988.
The twist cap closure protects the fine aromas and flavors of this distinctive blend, allowing the bottle to be easily re-closed and refrigerated. The airtight cap also eliminates the possibility of cork taint.
Conundrum is owned by the Wagner family of Caymus Vineyards, but stands on its own as a separate brand. The Conundrum winery in Monterey County is close to the sources for most of the grape varietals that make up the wine.
Produced from fruit grown in vineyards across southeast Australia, Wolf Blass winemakers produce wines of outstanding quality, character and consistency every year.
Piper-Heidsieck Cuvée Brut is a classic, structured, full-bodied and bursting with fruit Champagne. The blend is composed of a majority of Pinots Noirs, incorporating more than 100 crus from around the Champagne region and Pinots Meuniers from the Grande et Petite Montagne de Reims region.
On the palate:A structured, full-bodied and franc wine. A juicy, fleshy pear and golden grape texture. The finish narrows to citrus and grapefruit flavors. A wine with great fruit, a good mouthfeel and a harmonious balance.
Roederer's winemaking style is based on two elements: ownership of its own vineyards and the addition of oak-aged reserve wines to each year's blend or cuvee. All the grapes for the Anderson Valley wines are grown on the Estate.
Each year, the winemaker selects a portion of the best wines for aging in Center of France oak casks. Aged from one to three years, wines from this reserve cellar are added to the blend, creating a multi-vintage cuvee in the traditional Roederer style, known for its body, finesse and depth of flavor.
The Roederer Estate Brut debuted in October 1988, and has since established its reputation as one of California's premier sparklers, remaining true to the heritage of excellence and style of its French forebears.
This is an art in which the House of Veuve Clicquot excels. Our Brut Yellow Label reflects the superb vineyards we own and the consistent nature of our House style.
The predominance of Pinot Noir provides the structure that is so typically Clicquot, while a touch of Pinot Meunier rounds out the blend. Chardonnay adds the elegance and finesse essential in a perfectly balanced wine.
In 1816, Mme. Clicquot invented the process, called rémuage or riddling, that removes the yeast from the bottle. She used holes cut in her kitchen table to perfect the method of slowly tilting and turning the bottles to gather the spent yeast in the neck of the bottle. Once settled it could be removed by freezing the neck in a brine of salt and water, removing it, and recorking.
The company was taken public in 1963, and merged with Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessey in 1986. Today, Jacques Peters is the chief winemaker at Veuve Clicquot, and was appointed cellar master in 1985. He has undertaken an ambitious program since this time to upgrade the grape sources, improve the vineyards, and improve the cellars and production facilities.
Pair with all fish, especially sushi and sashimi, shellfish such as shrimp, prawns, crayfish and grilled lobster, poultry and white meat, cashews, parmesan or prosciutto.
With 399 acres of vineyards situated in the best Grands Crus and Premiers Crus villages, Bollinger relies on its own estate for nearly two-thirds of its grape requirements, including the Pinot Noir that gives its Champagne its distinctive roundness and elegance. Bollinger is one of a select few houses that can control the quality of its grape supply so carefully.
Bollinger is renowned for its stringent quality standards. It adheres to traditional methods, including individual vinification of each marc and cru, barrel fermentation (it is the last Champagne house to employ a full-time cooper) and extra-aging on the lees prior to disgorgement.
Members of the British Royal Court were among the first to embrace Bollinger's unmistakable quality, and Queen Victoria made Bollinger the exclusive purveyor to the Court by Royal Warrant in 1884. Besides royalty, loyal devotees have included heads of state, celebrities and even famous fictional characters: Agent 007, James Bond, demands the exclusive Champagne Bollinger.
In 1944, Parducci produced one of the first varietal bottling of California Zinfandel. This wine signaled the arrival of California as a premium winegrowing area and of Parducci Wine Cellars as the producer of quality wines. Two years later, we made the first varietal bottling of California Petite Sirah and today we are still the largest producer of Petite Sirah with just over 20,000 cases.
Parducci is "Family Farmed," locally owned and operated in California's Mendocino County. We are committed to sustainable winegrowing practices that yield top quality grapes and wines while protecting the environment and supporting our community and local farmers.

Digitalis is a medication prescribed to certain heart patients. Digitalis toxicity is a complication of digitalis therapy, or it may be occur when someone takes too much of the drug at one time. (This is called an acute ingestion.)
The most common prescription form of this medication is called digoxin. Digitoxin is another form of digitalis.
Digitalis toxicity can be caused by high levels of digitalis in the body. It may also be caused by a decreased tolerance to the drug. Patients with decreased tolerance may have normal levels of digitalis in their blood. Digitalis toxicity may occur in these patients if they have other risk factors.
People with heart failure who take digoxin are commonly given medications called diuretics, which remove excess fluid from the body. Many diuretics can cause potassium loss. Low levels of potassium in the body increase the risk of digitalis toxicity. Digitalis toxicity may also result in persons who take the drug and who have low levels of magnesium in the body.
You are more likely to have this condition if you take digoxin, digitoxin, or other digitalis medicines along with drugs that interact with it such as quinidine, flecainide, verapamil, amiodarone, and others.
If your kidneys do not work well, digitalis can build up in the body rather than be removed normally through urine. Any problem that affects how your kidneys work (including dehydration ) makes digitalis toxicity more likely.
Some plants such as oleander or lily of the valley have chemicals that can cause symptoms similar to digitalis toxicity if they are eaten.
Other symptoms may include:
The doctor or nurse will examine you.
Your heart rate may be rapid or slow and irregular.
An ECG is done to check for irregular heart beats.
Blood tests that will be done include:
If the person is having trouble breathing, get emergency medical help. If the person has stopped breathing, start CPR and get emergency medical help.
At the hospital, symptoms will be treated as appropriate.
If toxicity is due to a recent one-time exposure, treatment may involve:
Digitoxin blood levels may be lowered with repeated doses of charcoal, given after gastric lavage.
Methods to cause vomiting are usually not done because vomiting can worsen slow heart rhythms.
In severe cases, medications called digoxin-specific antibodies may be prescribed. Dialysis may be needed to reduce the levels of digitalis in the body.
How well a person does depends on the severity of the toxicity and if it has caused heart arrhythmias .
Call your health care provider if you are taking a digitalis medication and you have symptoms of toxicity.
If you take digitalis medicine, you should have your blood levels checked regularly. Blood chemistries should also be monitored to check for conditions that make this toxicity more common.
Potassium supplements may be prescribed if you take diuretics and digitalis together. Or, a potassium-sparing diuretic may be prescribed.

By MATT BECKER, STATS Senior Writer
The Phoenix Coyotes are proving to be far more organized on the ice than the financially troubled organization is off it.
After winning another game by spreading the scoring around, the Coyotes seek a sixth victory in eight contests when they visit the St. Louis Blues on Thursday night.
This season has gotten off to a rocky start for the Phoenix organization with owner Jerry Moyes agreeing to sell the bankrupt franchise to the NHL on Monday, but the team is coming together come game time.
The Coyotes (7-4-0), off to their best start since opening the 2000-01 season 9-1 with two ties, defeated Columbus 4-1 on Wednesday for their fifth win in seven games.
Martin Hanzal(notes), Jim Vandermeer(notes), Zbynek Michalek(notes) and Robert Lang(notes) had goals and four others contributed assists for the Coyotes. Keith Yandle(notes) was the only Phoenix player with more than one point, adding three assists.
"That's where we're going to be all year," coach Dave Tippett said. "It was a good, solid group effort. We have to continue to build on that. We want consistency of that - not up and down - and that's what we're looking for."
In the Coyotes' 3-2 overtime win over the Blues on Oct. 15, Shane Doan(notes) and Scottie Upshall(notes) each scored in regulation for Phoenix with Ed Jovanovski(notes) adding the game winner.
While the Coyotes are getting steady scoring from their offense, they've also been receiving solid play from goaltenders Jason LaBarbera(notes) and Ilya Bryzgalov(notes), who have yielded a Western Conference-low 23 goals.
LaBarbera made his first start in almost three weeks Wednesday and looked sharp in turning aside 31 shots.
Bryzgalov, who is 6-3-0 with a 1.97 goals-against average and two shutouts on the season, made 22 saves against the Blues two weeks ago, snapping the Coyotes' four-game losing streak in the series.
St. Louis (5-4-1), coming off a 5-2 victory over Carolina on Wednesday, is trying to win consecutive games for the first time since starting the season with back-to-back victories.
The Blues jumped out to a 3-0 lead 16 minutes into the game after totaling just three first-period goals in their previous seven contests. They had 11 shots on goal in the first 20 minutes but were outshot 22-7 the rest of the way.
"I think it's just working harder than the other team," said St. Louis left wing David Perron(notes), who had two goals. "Even though we got outshot, the two points is what we needed to get. We just have to keep playing like that."
The Blues also need goalie Chris Mason(notes) to continue his solid play.
Mason made 34 saves Wednesday and has won his last two games after recording a 3.25 GAA in losing his previous four. He stopped 31 shots in the loss in Phoenix two weeks ago.
"He's gotten off to a great start, and he's our best player every night," Perron said. "We've got to have him like that all year."
Feeling pretty good after yesterday's game, and we already owe the 'Yotes one from early this month.

Get the facts on battery types, care, and use.
Through the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC), our rechargeable batteries are collected and sent to facilities where they are processed to reclaim reusable materials. Learn how and where to recycle here.
The approximate run time on a fullycharged Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) battery is 15-20 minutes and actual performancemay vary based on usage.
A Lithium Ion battery that is not being used will hold a charge for up to 500 days between use, but will need to be recharged before use after that time. Battery life may vary depending upon factors included but not limited to charging conditions, battery maintenance, storage and environmental conditions.
Sealed lead acid batteries are used with a product that consumes a lot of energy and weight is not a major factor. Recharging is somewhat slow and takes several hours for a full charge. Battery life is around 150 recharges and needs to be charged after every use.
Have your rechargeable batteries reached the end of their useful life? Recycling starts here.
Need a back-up battery or battery charger to extend run-time – or a fresh battery to replace an old one? Start here.

Go Mobile: http://mobile.fosters.com Daylight Saving Time seen as old-fashioned with negative sleep impact
Sunday, March 3, 2013
DOVER — When I think of Daylight Saving Time, I think of how great it was as a kid to be able to stay out on the cul-de-sac and play kickball until nearly 9 p.m. with friends before the sun disappeared.
"We should reset it so that we go on DST 12 months a year," Wood said. The pulse poll on fosters.com reports that 44 percent of the voters also agree that we should stop changing the clocks completely. "It just makes everything confusing when some places don't use DST, and some countries switch on different dates," Wainwright said. "It would be much less confusing to get rid of it all together." Debbie Clark, of Stratham, said DST does not confuse her, but that she likes seeing light when she gets out of work at the end of the day. "Just get rid of it," she said of "falling back" in November. Florida State Sen. Darren Soto filed a bill, "Sunshine Protection Act," just last month according to ABC's First Coast News, stating DST year round would improve the quality of life in the southern state. He hopes, if anything, the bill will start discussion on the idea.
Nancy Rothstein, a sleep educator, who calls herself the sleep ambassador, and is an adjunct faculty member at New York University, said DST began in the early 1900s in order to save energy, but has just continued to cause problems ever since. The first DST bill was drafted in 1909 and was adopted in 1916 in Germany during World War I to save energy resources. In 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt began DST in the United States to save energy in World War II. "It was meant to save energy based on daylight coordinating with when people are awake," Wainwright said. "But there is such a big difference in sunrise and sunset times on opposite ends of a time zone that I believe it doesn't save any energy in the end." In fact, the one hour loss of sleep sucks the energy right out of some people. "It can be pretty jolting," Rothstein said, adding that although some people do not have a problem with the time change, others can take weeks to adjust. "It affects different people differently."
Noel Wheeler, MD, FAASM, FCCP, Chairman of the Critical Care Committee and Director of the Sleep Disorders Center at Wentworth-Douglass Hospital said the clock change can bring about irritability, depression and a lack of focus or attention during the adjustment period.
"Also, avoid bright light in the evenings," he said. |
