4 Great album, but some filler.......woti666 | 13/07/2012 | See all woti666's reviews (6)This is a great album, but I can't help thinking that all the aggression comes out in the first 4 tracks and some of the later tracks are fillers and not as good. I know it's a bonus track, but surely a track called "Private Parts" should be a on a Steel Panther record. Saw them at Download 2012 and was very very impressed, now for a whole album of songs.........

Phi Spector was convicted, today, of 2nd Degree murder for the 2003 death of Lana Clarkson. Clarkson was found in Spector's Alahambre, CA home with a gunshot wound in the roof of her mouth. She was 40 years old.
Spector could face 18 years to life in prison for this conviction. His 2007 trial ended in a mistrial when the jury was deadlocked at 10-2 for conviction. To be convicted of murder, the jury must be unanimous.
The prosecution produced five female witnesses to testify that Spector had threatened them with a pistol and his limo driver who testified that he saw Spector exit the house with a pistol and mention he thought he'd killed someone.
The defense argued that Clarkson's death was merely suicide. The prosecution, however, pointed out the fact that Clarkson had purchased a new pair of shoes on the day of her death. They said that a suicidal woman would not do such things. Spector will be sentenced on May 29.
SR: Take it easy Phil...You'll be someones "Little Baby" in the Lock Up very soon !!!

Engineers aren't always known for being great designers, but this blog has some unique information design in the presentation of the recipes. Very logical, as one would expect from engineers.

A heart transplant is surgery to remove a damaged or diseased heart and replace it with a healthy donor heart.
Finding a donor heart can be difficult. The heart must be donated by someone who is brain-dead but is still on life support. The donor heart must be matched as closely as possible to your tissue type to reduce the chance that your body will reject it.
You are put into a deep sleep with general anesthesia , and a cut is made through the breastbone.
Cardiac transplant; Transplant - heart; Transplantation - heart
A heart transplant may be done to treat:
Heart transplant surgery may not be used in patients who:
The doctor may not recommend a heart transplant if the patient may not be able to keep up with the many hospital and doctor's office visits, tests, and medications needed to keep the new heart healthy.
Risks from any anesthesia are:
Risks from any surgery are:
Risks of transplant include:
Once the doctor refers you to a transplant center, you will be evaluated by the transplant team. They will want to make sure that you are a good candidate for a transplant. You will visit many times over several weeks or even months. You will need to have blood drawn and x-rays taken. The following may also be done:
You will want to look at one or more transplant centers to see which would be best for you:
If the transplant team believes you are a good candidate, you will be put on a national waiting list for a heart:
Most, but not all, patients who are waiting for heart transplants are very ill and need to be in the hospital. Many will need some sort of device to help their heart pump enough blood to the body. Most often this is a ventricular assist device (artificial heart-like device).
You should expect to stay in the hospital for 7 to 21 days after a heart transplant. The first 24 to 48 hours will likely be in the intensive care unit (ICU). During the first few days after a transplant, you will need close follow-up to make sure that you do not get an infection and your heart is working well.
The recovery period is about 6 months. Often, your transplant team will ask you to stay fairly close to the hospital for the first 3 months. You will need to have regular check-ups with blood tests, x-rays, and echocardiograms for many years.
Fighting rejection is an ongoing process. The body's immune system considers the transplanted organ an infection and fights it. For this reason, organ transplant patients must take drugs that suppress the body's immune response . Taking medicines and following your doctor's instructions carefully is very important to preventing rejection.
Biopsies of the heart muscle are often done every month during the first 6 to 12 months after transplant, and then less often after that. This helps the doctor determine if your body is rejecting the new heart, even before you have symptoms.
You must take drugs that prevent transplant rejection for the rest of your life. You will need to understand how to take these medications, and know their side effects.
You can go back to your normal activities as soon as you feel well enough, and after talking with your doctor. However, avoid vigorous physical activity.
To make sure that you do not develop coronary disease after a transplant, you may have cardiac catheterization every year.
Heart transplant prolongs the life of patients who would otherwise die. About 80% of heart transplant patients are alive 2 years after the operation. At 5 years, 70% of people will still be alive after a heart transplant.
The main problem, as with other transplants, is rejection. If rejection can be controlled, survival increases to over 10 years.

Red Bodum Brazil French Press Coffee Maker
Great French Press
I don't know what all the fuss is about. This is my second press of this type. The first was put on the stove by accident to heat the coffee!!!! Needless to say it was a mess. I grind my coffee a little fine because I like the slurry on the bottom of the cup, and I have never had a grounds problem. After reading the reviews for the black model, I decided to write this. I am ordering a third, as a backup, since they have a special coupon going on right now.

Rabbi Vorspan received the degree for his soon-to-be-published "The History of Jewish Life in Los Angeles," an original research project carried -out under the sponsorship of the Jewish Fed-eration Council of Greater Los Angeles and the Southern C alif-ornia Jewish Historical Society. A special portion of the com-mencement exercises was taken up by the rendition of three dedi-catory chorales, conducted by Max Helfman, famed musicolo-gist, composer and conductor. He directed the Sinai Temple Choir in the singing of "Our Father in Heaven," "KiLeKach Tov," and "L'Cha Adonay."

On behalf of the fac-ulty and administrative staff of the University of Judaism, lean assure Mr. Fligelman and his associates of the fullest mea-sure of cooperation in bringing to reality the university's grand development plans, many of which flow from the conception and vision of Julius Fligelman." Fligelman, in accepting the chairmanship, renewed his ple-dge of "active and full partici-pation in helping the University of Judaism fulfill its magnifi-cent objectives." These, he said, included "the training of new generations of cultural, spiritual and lay lea-ders, the development of origi-nal and creative Jewish scho-larship and the projection of the cultural and spiritual con-tributions of the Jewish people to the world in general and the Western world in particular." He added that many of these plans "are already under way and will be announced shortly in detail." It is known that among these plans are a vast expansion of the Fine Arts program with some of America's first-rank artists, composers and direc-tors as part of the faculty. Neg-otiations with radio and tele-vision studios have also been under way for university-pro-duced educational and cultural programs, with results expec-ted to be announced shortly. Fligelman, a Los Angeles businessman, whose posts and achievements read like a gloss-ary of American Jewish life, is Western States president of the Israel Histadrut organiza-tion.

Two additional board mem-bers were also elected at the meeting. They are Fred Fine, of Temple Beth Emet in Ana-heim, who is also co-chairman of the university's Congrega-tional Cabinet, and A. J. Sch-wartzman of Sinai Temple. Dr. Simon Greenberg, Uni-versity of Judaism president, Continued on Page 4 Page 2 Page 3 Prof. Leslau, Noted Scholar Won World-Wide Laurels In conferring the honorary degree of Doctor of Hebrew Letters upon Dr. Wolf Leslau at its commencement exercises Tuesday night, June 13, the Uni-versity of Judaism added to the long list of honors bestowed up-on one of the world's foremost scholars in Judaism and lin-guistics. Austrian by birth and an American citizen by choice, Dr. Leslau's studies fill library and university reference shelves a-round the world. Typical of his profound scholarship is the fact that his research has gone beyond university walls for ba-sic language studies in such countries as Ethopia, Aden in South Arabia and Israel. And, in the tradition of all great scholars, his research has always been combined with teaching new generations of scholars to continue enriching mankind's knowledge of itself and its origins. Presently, he fills two teaching posts with distinction one as chairman of the Department of Near E ast Languages at UCLA, and ano-ther as visiting professor at the Graduate School of the Univer-sity of Judaism. Prof. Leslau obtained his Ph.D. from the Sorbonne in Paris and continued to add to an impressive list of degrees and honors ever since. Prior to going to Paris he entered into studies of the Semitic langua-ges Arabic, Hebrew, Ethio-pic, and Assyre-BabyIonian at the University of Vienna. The years following took him to teaching and lecture posts in Ethiopia, where he lectured at the National School of East-ern Languages and University College of Addia Ababa; and the Asia Institute in New York, the New School for Social Research, the University of Indiana and Brandeis University. His abilities and qualifica-tions were quickly recognized in America where he became a fellow of the Guggenheim Foun-dation, the Social Science Re-search Council and the Ameri-can Academy of Arts and Scien-ces. He was also made a mem-ber of the Linguistic Society and the Academic Council of the Hebrew University. Now living in Los Angeles with his wife and two children, Prof. Leslau swiftly made his mark here also. In 1955 he was appointed professor of Hebrew and Semitic languages at UCLA and four years later, in 1959, was named chairman of the de-partment which he continues to guide. Dr. Wolf Leslau Dr. Goldin of Yale Univ. Dr. Judah Goldin, professor of Jewish Studies at Yale Uni-versity and one of America's foremost Jewish scholars, gave a public lecture Monday, May 29 at the University of Judaism. Subject of Dr. Goldin's lec-ture was "The Role of Midrash in Jewish Thought," dealing with creative interpretation for modern times of this basic body of Jewish precepts. Author of many works, inclu-ding "The Living Talmud" and "The Period of the Talmud," Dr. Goldin has served on the faculty of such noted higher in-stitutions of learning as the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, parent body of the University of Judaism; Colum-bia University, University of Iowa, Duke University and the University of Illinois. He re-ceived his B.S. from City Col-lege, New York, his master's degree from Columbia and his doctorate in Hebrew letters from Jewish Theological Semi-nary of America. A member of Phi Beta Kappa, Dr. Goldin is affiliated with the Archaeological Institute of A-merica, The American School Japanese Professor Begins Studies at University of Judaism Julius Fligelman, chairman of the Board of Overseers of the University of Judaism, last month welcomed one of Japan's most distinguished scholars, Prof. M. Koboyashi, to the uni-versity where he will begin a one year study of Jewish life in the United States. Prof. Koboyashi, who teaches history at Waseda University, Tokyo, is on a year-long travel grant to the United States where he will do research at virtually every major center of Jewish studies. At the University of Judaism, he will make intensive use of the institution's 24,000 volume library and will receive the cooperation of the noted scholars on its faculty. The slight, friendly scholar also added a unique volume to the University of Judaism's li-brary. It is a book printed in Japanese and titled "Israel in Construction." He has trans-lated into Japanese "Israel" by Norman Bentwich and "Ancient Israel" by Dr. Harry Orlinsky. for Oriental Research and the Society of Biblical Literature. He is a fellow of the American Academy of Jewish Research and was a recipient of a re-search grant in 1956 from the American Philosophical Society for workinCambridge.England. In 1959 he was awarded a Gug-genheim Fellowship for work in Athens and Jerusalem. Because Hebrew typography could not be found in Japan, Prof. Koboyashi hand-printed a dedicatory Hebrew passage which is reproduced on the cover of his book. In welcoming Prof Koboyashi. Fligelman, who was elected chairman of the university's board at the annual meeting last week, declared, "Your pres-ence here underscores the max-im that the search for truth and human values is universal, crossing lines of nations and creed. You may be assured that the full resources of the University of Judaism will be placed at your disposal for your highly significant studies." Among those who were on hand togreetthe Japanese scho-lar was Rabbi Matthew Simon of Temple Ramah, Northridge, who met Prof. Koboyashi in Japan while serving as chaplain in the U. S. Navy. Prof. Koboyashi said that af-ter completing his studies at the University of Judaism, he will continue his research in San Francisco, Chicago, Cin-cinatti, Philadelphia and New York. In New York he will do research at the Jewish Theo-logical Seminary of America, parent body of the University of Judaism, and at the Jewish Institute of Religion. He will also work with Prof. Hyman Kaplan who teaches Japanese history at Brooklyn College. Rabbi Vorspan Gets Doctorate for L.A. History For what is already being hailed as one of the most signifi-cant scholarly contributions to the Jewish life of Los Angeles, Rabbi Max Vorspan received the coveted degree of Doctor of Hebrew Literature at the com-mencement exercises June 13 of the University of Judaism. His research, painstakingly pursued over many years through back files of the B'nai B'rith Messenger, the Los Angeles Times and other publications, plus direct interviews and liter-ary "detective work", will soon come to fruition in a book titled "The History of Jewish Life in Los Angeles." Those who have gone over the manuscript des-cribe it as highly readable and exciting, a work which brings to life a sadly neglected part of the opening and history of the Southwest. "Rabbi Max", as he is affec-tionately known, traces the con- Rabbi Max Vorspan structive role of local Jewry from the earliest days when Los Angeles was the dusty pueb-lo of Nuestra Senora La Reina De Los Angeles, through the lusty years that followed into its present status as a major world metropolis. Rabbi Vorspan's scholarlya-chievement is all the more re-markable in that his research was not his exclusive preoccu-pation during this period. For, at the same time, he filled a busy executive post, that of the registrar at the University of Judaism, also teaching on its faculty. He also combined with these duties that of executive director of the Pacific South-west region of the United Syna-gogue of America. In Rabbi Vorspan's case, looks can be deceiving. Quiet-spoken and friendly, "Rabbi Max" is the total refutation of the stereotype of the thin-lipped busy executive. He has mas-tered the technique of getting the most out of each hour with a grace and ease that is com-pletely disarming. One major result is the soon-to- be-published book. From the beginning its importance was seen by many groups, and the project has been carried out under the sponsorship of the Jewish Federation Council of Greater Los Angeles and the Southern California Jewish His-torical Society. The study is al-so one of several conducted by the American Jewish History Center of the Jewish Theologi-cal Seminary of America, par-ent body of the University of Judaism. Before joining the University of Judaism in 1953 as registrar. Rabbi Vorspan served for five years with distinction as spirit-ual leader of the Pasadena Jew-ish Temple and Center. Through this period and earlier he con-tinued to study and function in a manner which also helped him prepare for the prized Univer-sity of Judaism doctorate. Upon graduating from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America in 1941, he served as Rabbi of New York's 92nd Street YM and YWHA and as assistant of the Seminary school of Jewish studies. He served as chaplain during World War II in Saipan and the Marianna Islands, and, on his honor able discharge, was named national director of youth activities of the United Syna-gogue of America. Dr. Dinin Named Editor of Education; Talks on Israel At the Annual Conference of the National Council for Jew-ish Education, held in Atlantic City, Dr. Samuel Dinin, Dean of the University of Judaism, was elected editor of "Jewish Education." "Jewish Education" is the major educational periodical published by the organized group of the top professionals in Jew-ish education in the United States. "Jewish Education" is a quarterly going into its thirty-first year of publication. Serving with Dr. Dinin will be Dr. Walter Ackerman, Di-rector of Camp Ramah and in-structor in Education at the Teachers Institute of the Uni-versity of Judaism, as assistant editor; and Irwin Soref, associ-ate director of the Bureau of Jewish Education of the Los An-geles Federation Council, as managing editor. This is the first time that editing of the magazine has been given over to a group in the West. Pre-vious editors have all come from the East, primarily New York City. Dr. Dinin takes over from Louis Ruffman, the pre-vious editor, who served for the past five years. Ruffman is the Associate Director of the Jewish Education Committee in New York. Dr. Samuel Dinin, Dean ofThe University of Judaism, gave a well-attended public lecture at The University of Judaism, on Monday, May 22, on "Israel and the future of the Ameri-can Jewish Community." Although Dr. Dinin's lecture was scheduled weeks in ad-vance, his talk took on new sig-nificance because of recent na-tional discussions on American Jewry and Israel. In addition to outstanding scholarship in this area, Dr. Dinin brought first-hand obser-vations to the discussion. He spent the summer of 1960 in Israel where he delivered a series of lectures at the Uni-versity of Jerusalem and under-took additional studies. Author of many authoritative works, including "Judaism in a Changing Civilization" and "Zionist Education in the United States," Dr. Dinin has had a long and distinguished career as an educator. He has been with The University of Judaism since its founding, where he first ser-ved as Dean of the School of Education, becoming Dean of The University in 1957.

Rogue Porcelana
Country of Origin: United States
Region: Massachusetts
City / Village: Three Rivers
Tasting our first bars of chocolate from Colin Gasko's Rogue chocolatier was a revelation. Each package listed the flavor notes Colin found when he tasted his bars and as we tasted them we mentally checked them off in our minds - cedar, cassis, blackberry, toasted cherry... The fruitiness of the chocolate was unlike any we had tasted before - it was fresh and alive in our mouths and as it melted away, it left its lingering essence of deep chocolate flavors.
Colin's chocolates are made in tiny batches where he controls every aspect of production from the roasting of the beans to the winnowing and grinding.
His Porcelana is made using a rare cacao from Venzuela. The cacao gets its name from the cream colored beans found inside the cacao pod. This bar has a dense texture and a deep, rich chocolate flavor with notes of ripe cherries.

TSN.ca wrote:TORONTO -- With one month to go before the NHL's collective bargaining agreement expires, the league and players seem no closer to a deal than when talks began in June.
In fact, the divide may have grown even further.
It took commissioner Gary Bettman less than 24 hours to conclude that the first proposal from the NHL Players' Association held little appeal for the owners.
"There's still a wide gap between us with not much time to go," Bettman said Wednesday.
"I do think it's fair to say that the sides are still apart -- far apart -- and have different views of the world and the issues," he added.
They were hardly encouraging comments for those hoping to see the league avoid its second lockout in as many negotiations, and the third on Bettman's watch. The current CBA expires Sept. 15 and Bettman has already made it clear that the league will enact a work stoppage if a new deal isn't in place by then.
On Tuesday, the union put forth a proposal that included a smaller percentage of revenues for players over the next three seasons in exchange for an expanded revenue sharing program to help struggling teams. The NHLPA estimated that players would be giving up US$465 million in salaries if the league continued on its pace of seven per cent growth each season.
However, that math didn't add up for the league.
"I think it's fair to say that we value the proposal and what it means in terms of its economics differently than the players' association does," said Bettman. "I think there still are a number of issues where we're looking at the world differently. I'm not sure that there has yet been a recognition of the economics in our world -- and I mean the greater world and the sports industry, taking into account what recently happened with the NFL and the NBA."
Both of those sports leagues went through recent lockouts before ultimately seeing the players' share in revenue reduced. The NHL's initial proposal called for a significant reduction from 57 per cent to 43 per cent, when factoring in changes to the way revenue is calculated.
It would be nowhere near that drastic in the offer put forth from the NHLPA.
Donald Fehr, the union's executive director, bristled at the parallels Bettman drew to other sports leagues -- "every sport has its own economics," he said -- and indicated that the gap in talks was created by the NHL's initial proposal in July.
"There's a pretty substantial monetary gulf which is there and when you start with the proposal the owners made how could it be otherwise?" said Fehr. "I mean consider what the proposal was: It is 'let's move salaries back to where they were before the (2004-05) lockout started, back to the last time.' That's basically what it was.
"'We had a 24 per cent reduction last time, let's have another one.' That was the proposal. That's what creates the gulf."
The sides broke off from talks with two completely different offers on the table and no meaningful negotiation sessions planned for a week. They'll gather again in Toronto on Aug. 22.
Fehr was disappointed the owners weren't more receptive to what he viewed as two significant concessions in the NHLPA's offer -- the fact it included the hard salary cap won by owners in the last round of negotiations and called for a drag on the amount of money they're paid.
The strong words and wide gap left many feeling like another lockout was in the offing. There wasn't much Bettman could offer when asked what he might say to fans concerned about the possibility.
"I don't have an appetite either to not have hockey, so we're all in agreement on that," Bettman said. "I know what the game means and I know how important it is for our franchises and our game to be healthy from an economic standpoint and we're working very, very hard.
"It takes two sides to make a deal, it takes two sides to negotiate and it takes two sides if it all goes bad. We're working very hard hopefully to keep it from going bad."
I am pretty POed that the PA took so long to respond to the NHL's offer, but I am once again more angry with the owners. They are being so damn greedy; if you wanted to make more money, you should have hopped on board with an NFL or MLB team. The turnaround on NHL teams are not fantastic.
I was confident about the league starting on time until today... I think neither side will budge much more and they are apparently still very far off. I liked the NHLPA's proposal (what I saw of it). The revenue share makes a lot of sense to me, as well as the luxury tax. I also liked how they didn't just throw out a ridiculously one-sided deal like the NHL; they offered a few solutions that were good for both sides.
Then again, I'm just a dude sitting on his couch.


text: 5 The Amrerikan road to Nirvana, an inner quest via Norton.,MozzaBloke | 13/08/2007 | See all MozzaBloke's reviews (69)Top 100 Music Reviewer Top 100 Books Reviewer This is a top three book for me. Certainly different from other books I've read, very accessable, totally absorbing and not without questions about the hero's parental care values. It's a road trip with a difference - for a start you're more isolated on a sickle - no conversations with other passengers while you move from town to town. That allows some deep thought. The thinking relates to his maintenace manual, god and his inner demons\angels. It's also an adventure he shares with his son - well meaning, I'm sure, but I worry for the lad's welfare. A story about the boy's inner journey would be interesting too - one I long pondered on my second reading. This book will change the way you look at bits of your life and flood into your dreams, at least while you're reading it.

The Shop Hop last week was fun. Each of the store's picked a holiday/celebration as their theme. Our store's was Father's Day so I wore a white shirt with my 6-year-old's clip on tie. I felt more like an Olive Garden waiter though.
The funniest part of the day: a gal (Hi Kim!!) comes in and says, "I'm here to meet Amy." So I totally assume she's there to meet Amy McClellan, the store owner, and send her in that direction. (I'm the employee that makes everything confusing at AQ - anytime anyone asks for "Amy" on the phone or in person, it's pretty much always her they want, so I always defer.) Thirty seconds later, Kim comes back to me and says, "No! I'm here to meet YOU. I read your blog!" I felt like such a dork (this is not an abnormal feeling for me, so I wasn't distressed) and after she gave me a noogie, we had a great chat. Kim, you are a hoot! And get this! Kim's nice husband went WITH HER to a dozen or so quilt stores! What a man.
PS I'm linking up to last weeks Sew and Tell here! :)

The problem is that in the last 10 years, between expansion and the move to a 2-ref system, there are a LOT of NHL refs that have only spent 2 years or so in the AHL, and don't have NEAR enough experience. Also figure in that a lot of refs have retired recently (Stewart, Koharski, Gregson) or are about to do so (Fraser), and it ain't gonna get any better.........
Makes sense. They have 4 of them on the rink though... I understand that there's a lot going on but you'd think that if they split up zones of coverage, it'd be pretty easy to get most of the calls right. It's not that there are occasional bad calls... The bad calls prevail.
They don't split up the zones though, only the two ACTUAL referees can call penalties and IIRC, if one calls a penalty, the other can't wave it off. All the linesmen can do is signal offsides/icing/etc and help break up fights. The penalties gotta come from the refs. So, unfortunately, one @$$hat can, in fact, ruin a game.

5 IdealDaiLaughing | 05/05/2011 | See all DaiLaughing's reviews (1)Very compact, pretty stylish, almost silent, never gets hot, quick enough, reliable so far and cheap with it.It would be hard to think of any way to improve this drive. I have seen a few criticisms elsewhere but I don't agree with any of them. The LED is easily visible when plugged in the cable is just the right length. I have used the drive for a couple of weeks including some major transfers which went quickly and trouble free. Drive works on Windows XP and 7 and Ubuntu 10.10 and 11.04 with no problems.The only drives I could find cheaper had separate power supplies (AC) but this is a truly portable drive which easily fits into a pocket.
5 EXCELLENT!!tonytrouble | 30/04/2011 | See all tonytrouble's reviews (16)I bought this external hard drive a couple of months ago and it's one of the best buys I've done from this site. It's very easy to use. No problems with transferring data and it does it quickly. Not a sound from it and more than all, it's so small that you don't even realise you're carrying it around unless you have to use it. Only criticism is that the USB cable is rather short. So for someone who doesn't have a laptop (like myself) it can be an inconvenience. Luckily I have another longer cable that I have exchanged it for. Overall: a pocket-size rocket of an external hard drive.
5 Happy days..OliJordan | 23/08/2011 | See all OliJordan's reviews (1)Item arrived this morning, I have backed up my whole laptop on to it, heaps of space left. Looks great, is silent and transfers relatively quickly. Only downer I can think of is it didnt come with a case, i think it needs a case to protect the piano black finish. All in all very happy! x

5 Excellent productRFCDavie | 14/11/2012 | See all RFCDavie's reviews (1)I bought this external drive about a year ago. It has been fantastic for me. Data writes to it pretty fast (about 30MB/s generally) and I haven't had any performance issues so far. It has a gorgeous blinking blue light on the front which makes it look very professional alongside the sleek black cover.The drive is very lightweight. It comes with a very short cable which may not be to everyone's tastes, but seeing as I generally use the drive in my PS3 it's just right for me as it means I can sit it in my TV stand. If needs be you can connect a longer cable for when using with laptop or desktop (such as a PS3 controller cable).I thoroughly recommend this product.

The College News Volume VI. No. 3 BRYN MAWR, PA., TUESDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1919 Price 5 Cents R ADICAL CHANGES IN STUDENT GOVERNMENT PROPOSED All Questions to Come Before Advi- sory and Executive Boards A more democratic organization of Student Government was outlined by A. Harrison, president, at a meeting of the Association last week. According to the new plan the Execu- tive Board will be enlarged by the addi- tion of a sophomore and a freshman member. The Advisory Board will con- sist of the six head proctors (juniors). two senior representatives, two sopho- mores, two freshmen, two graduates, a non-resident, and the secretary and treasurer of the Association. Every question will be voted on by the Advis- ory Board, but no names will be used and no one will be asked to bear wit- ness. The question will then go to the Executive Board for- final decision. In case of questions requiring immediate action, the president, who is chairman of both boards, will either call a joint meeting or will ask the Executive Board to decide. Any member of the Associa- tion may meet with the Advisory Board, but may not take part in the discussion. The Executive Board will act in confer- ences with the college authorities. The Association is investigating the organization of the Student Government Associations of other colleges before calling a second meeting of the Bryn Mawr Association to decide more defi- nitely on plans. Prominent Speakers to Address College on Social Service Professor Kirchwey, former superin- tendent of Sing Sing, Dr. Catherine Davis. Parole and Probation Officer of the Juvenile Courts in New York; Paul Kellogg, editor of the Survey, and Dr. James Leuba are among the speakers who will lead a course in practical Social Service under the World Citizenship Committee of the C. A. on Wednesday evenings during the first semester. Mr. William Simpson will open the course Thursday evening at 7.30. Mr. Simp- son has been working as a day laborer in factories and mines out West this summer in order to get the point of view of labor. Almost every branch of Social Serv- ice wilt be taken up in this course and all the lectures will be led by prominent speakers. Mr. Paul Kellogg, who was in England last winter, will speak on the British Labor Party, and Mrs. Raymond Robbins on Trade Unions in the United States. Mrs. Robbins will come to Bryn Mawr directly from the first Interna- tional Women's Trade Unions Confer- ence which she is superintending in Washington. Dr. Welch, uncle of L. Kellogg, '20, and head of the Hygiene and Public Health Department at Johns Hopkins, will lecture on Medical Social Service. Mrs. Falconer, who was for- merly head of Sleighton Farms, the Pennsylvania State Reformatory, and is at present engaged in starting model re- formatories all over the United States, will speak on her work. The course alto includes Miss Eva Whiting White, head of the New York College Settlement; James Johnson, a negro poet, and several other well-known people. Programs of the course will be dis- tributed Wednesday, with slips attached, on which all students who intend to take the course may sign their names and give them to their hall representatives. ALUMNA HOPE8 FOR ELECTION A8 FIRST WOMAN JUDGE IN NEW YORK Miaa Rembaugh a Leading Member of New York Bar The proposal to endow the chair of poli- tics as a memorial to Dr. Anna Howard Shaw with the first hundred thousand dol- lars in the Two Million Dollar Campaign, chimes in nicely with the news that a Bryn Mawr graduate has just become the first woman candidate ever nominated for judicial office in New York City. Bertha Rembaugh, "97, who received both her A.B. and M.A. at Bryn Mawr, has long been known as a lawyer, suffragist, and civic worker in New York. She runs on the Republican ticket. True, the Republican Party has chosen her to run in a district that has been Tammany's own for years and years. Politicians the country over still keep their sure districts for their men candidates, but they hope with Miss Rembaugh to make their first dent in the election district south of Fourteenth Street, a strange metropolitan region that includes Washington Square, the Bowery, Chinatown, Wall Street, Park Row, most of the city's dock quarters, the Armenian and Italian districts, and the lower East Side ghetto. Mrs. Charles Knoblauch (Mary Alletta Bookstaver '98), one of the Woman's Committee which sprang up to back Miss Rembaugh's campaign�a committee of women of all kinds�Republicans, Demo- crats. Socialists, home-makers, professional women, bankers' wives and laundresses� says in The New York Evening Post for October 10: "We think it only fair that one of these judges should be a woman. It is a known fact that one-third of the (Continued on page 3 column 2) Tennis a Major Sport to be Discussed hy Athletic Association Mr. Hoskins To Coach Squads Better tennis and more of it is the aim of the Tennis Committee of the Athletic Association which, with Miss Applebee, reorganized the sport, at a meeting held last week. Mr. Hoskins, Secretary of the National Lawn Tennis Association, who will coach tennis on Wednesday after- noons, will do much toward improving tennis at Bryn Mawr. Foot-faults and the form necessary for a powerful serve were emphasized by Mr. Hoskins in his first talk last Wednesday afternoon when he demonstrated and criti- cised strokes to a large crowd of students on one of the upper courts. Good material is not lacking in the college, according to Mr. Hoskins, and the students whose play- ing he criticised proved apt in putting his suggestions into practice. The question of making tennis a major sport will be brought before the Athletic Association at the next meeting. The plans of the Tennis Committee are to abol- ish doubles and play the singles matches in the spring, eliminating all except prac- tice tennis in the fall. Such practice, counted as exercise, would have no time limit, but students would be expected to play two sets or the equivalent The singles teams would, according to the new plan, consist of five instead of three players. Class squads, three in each class and of ten persons each, will be formed and the corresponding squads of the four classes will be called out to play at specified times, as for hockey. Squad ladders will be posted in the gymnasium and the first player on any ladder may challenge the last player on the ladder of the next higher squad. STUDENT BUILDING CAMPAIGN SUSPENDED Confined to Publicity Work During Alumnae Drive Rush Night Discussed Campaigning for building funds by the Student Building Committee will be sus- pended temporarily during the progress of the Alumnae Drive, according to a sense of the meeting of the Undergraduate Association taken last Thursday night. In the meantime the Student Building Committee will stand ready to co-operate with the Alumnae in their drive for the $2,000,000 Endowment Fund. Publicity work to keep awake the interest in the Student Building will be carried on during the year, in order that the campaign may be reopened as soon as the Alumnae Drive is completed. Pay-Day Collectors to be Paid Pay-day collectors and their assistants are to receive salaries, by vote of the Asso- ciation taken at the same meeting. Through an assessment of each member of the Association thirty-five cents a semester, $12 a semester will be given to each head collector and $8 to the assistant collector in each hall. The papers have been posted in the halls for names of applicants for the positions. The collectors will be appointed this week and a schedule of pay days drawn up at once. General dissatisfaction with Parade Night, under the present rules, was dis- closed when the matter was brought up during the meeting. Juniors and Sopho- mores who had gone through Rush Night this year voiced the feeling that much of the sporting element had been lost from the occasion and that it did not accom- plish its original purpose of uniting the Freshman Class. The members of the committee appointed by the board to inves- tigate possible revisions of Parade Night rules are: J. Peyton '21, chairman; D. Rogers 20, H. Hill '21, M. Tyler '22, E. Anderson '22. LORD DUNSANY TO SPEAK HERE EXPERIMENTAL GAS WORK DONE BY DR. CRENSHAW IN FRANCE Worked as Head of Chemical Section of Only American Gas Field Analysis of captured German gas shells and explosives; experiments on animals for the effects of gas, were a part of the work of Dr. James Llewellyn Crenshaw during his eighteen months' war service in France. As Chief of the I. S Chemical Section he was stationed at the Chemical Warfare Experimental Field near Chaumont, the only Ameri- can gas field in France, from July, 1918. until the armistice. He was ordered to the British front as an observer, after three weeks at camp in the fall of 1917. and in February spent another week at the front with the artil- lery of the first American division, in order to learn the actual difficulties the men had to undergo. While he was waiting for the American field to be com- pleted he studied the British method of gas warfare for a month and in May worked with the French at Paris. After the armistice Dr. Crenshaw taught for a month in the American Uni- versity at Beaune, which had been start- ed for the purpose of providing occupa- tion for the American soldiers still sta- tioned in France. Will Lecture on "My Own Lands" October 25, Under English Club Lord Dunsany, poet, soldier and crack shot of Ireland, will speak in the gymna- sium, Saturday evening, October 25th, at 8.15. under the auspices of the English Club. Lord and Lady Dunsany arrived in this country last Thursday on the liner France. "Gods and Men," "A Dreamer's Tales," "Golden Doom" and "The Lost Silk Har- are among his best known works. Lord Dunsany will speak on "My Own Lands;" he refers here to his lands of wonder, the background of most of his plays. Edwin Bjorkman, who wrote the introduction to one of his books, says that Dunsany "is not only the master but the maker of the countries to which he takes us on such fascinating jaunts. His commonest name for them is the Edge of the World, but sometimes he speaks of them as the Lands of Wonder. This latter name is doubly significant, for the whole movement of which he forms such a striking manifesta- tion has been defined as "the renaissance 'if wonder." Fought at Gallipoli as Major Edward John Moreton Drax Plunket, Lord Dunsany, was born in 1878. He was educated at Eton and Sandhurst and served in the Coldstream Guards during the South African War. In the Great War he was Major of the Inniskillen Fusiliers and fought at Gallipoli. He returned safely to Ireland, but was wounded in the Dublin riots. Lord Dunsany always uses a quill pen but in most ways lives the life of a typical Englishman. His favorite ambition has been to be the champion shot of Ireland. Edward Bierstadt illustrates his almost childlike delight in out-of-door sports by describing Bernard Shaw and Lord Dun- sany sailing paper-boats in the pools near Dunsany Castle. Sir Horace Plunket, Lord Dunsany's uncle, discovered "A. E." in a clerk's office and. upon the recommendation of Yeats, sent him as an ambassador among the rural classes in Ireland. This was the beginning of "A. E. S.," career. VARSITY DEFEATS ST. MARTINS 3-1 IN FIRST GAME OF SEASON Offlcs Notice Dean Smith would like to see all Fresh- men again in her office, and particularly all Freshmen who have matriculation con- ditions, as soon as possible. Loss of 1919s Wings Felt Bryn Mawr won the first hockey game of the year against Si. Martin's $-2, in a ragged but hard-fought game. St. Martins started strong, making two goals in the first few minutes. Through- out the game they displayed better teamwork than Varsity, which struggled under the handicap of a new line-up. Captain Carey was the backbone of the team and helped to make the half-backs the strongest factors in the game. Both Varsity wings were weak and time and time again left the ball out or took it far down only to make a wild pass or to lose it to St. Martin's full-backs. For awhile it looked as if Bryn Mawr were going to break its record of not hav- ing lost a game for two years. A Nicoll. '22. turned the tide by put- ting in a goal and immediately after- ward C. Bickley, 71, shot in a second. Half-time blew with the score a tie, 2-2. Bryn Mawr came back strong at the beginning of the second half. E. Ander- son, '22. made a pretty goal, the only one of the half, from just inside the circle. St. Martin's defense was good. Their goal, who stopped several balls on the fly with her stick, proved herself al- (Continued on page 4. column 1 )

Staging is a term that is used to describe if a cancer has spread from where it first began. Prostate cancer staging is commonly described as:
Most of the time, tests such as an MRI scan or a CT scan are not very good at telling your doctor how much prostate cancer is present or whether it has spread.
Rarely, your doctor can feel a prostate cancer during a rectal exam. Sometimes a test called a bone scan will be done to see if the cancer has spread to your bones (a common place for the cancer to go).
However, your doctor will also use other information, to help guide treatment and follow-up and give you some idea of what to expect in the future. Other information includes:
It is important to understand that only if and when you have surgery to remove the prostate gland can you and your doctor know for certain what the stage of your prostate cancer is.
However, using your symptoms, physical exam, and results of tests described just above, your doctors will often have a pretty good idea which stage of prostate cancer you have.

Monastery hopping might sounds fast-paced and a touch irreverent, but unlike island hopping it is a calm and contemplative way to travel. Set against the enchanting backdrop of the northern Black Forest, the Monasteries route from Alpirsbach to Maulbronn offers fascinating glimpses of monastic life. The former Benedictine abbey in Alpirsbach – 900 years of history shrouded in stone – is a striking example of Cluniac architecture. Visitors can enjoy monastery or cloister concerts or attend one of the abbey's interesting workshops. The former world of the monks and abbots at the St. Peter and St. Paul Benedictine Abbey in Hirsau contains arresting relics of monastic history. Visitors can stroll around the enchanting ruins or maybe take in a play in the abbey grounds. The extremely well preserved, elegant old monastery at Maulbronn, built by Cistercian monks around 850 years ago (seemingly for eternity) in the secluded Salzachtal valley, is now a UNESCO World Heritage site. Throughout history, members of religious orders have made an important contribution to the development of European culture. Their monastic architecture is an inherent part of our cultural heritage.

Pattern now available on sidebar! ---->
I'm linking with Today's Creative Blog!
I am happy that your friend is finally happy and has found a wonderful husband to love her.
The quilt is beautiful! Taking into account the whole story I was thinking "Sticks & Stones" I know how cruel people can be when you are going through something they don't understand, even if they are not trying to be. I am sure it wasn't easy for her!
dang - i love it - and what a story, huh? we just never know, do we? i can't stop looking at the quilt - it reminds of ying/yang b/c one is the opposite of the other - that of course, reminds me of seinfeld and the black and white cookie. i like some of the other suggestions, though... something about the way life works - blocks...
ReplyDeleteLove your quilt, and the story that inspired you to make it. Mental illness is all to often hidden because people are ashamed. However it is no different than any other illness one faces. You are a great friend, and obviously very understanding. Not sure for a name but when I look at your quilt I see windows. Maybe something along the lines of "windows to your soul".
ReplyDeleteGorgeous quilt. Sad story with a great happy ending. I've got the perfect name for your quilt. The Modern Honeycomb. I hope you like-y because I would love that pattern. It reminds me a lot of a honeycomb pattern, but with the more modern touch of squares subbing in for the traditional hexagons. In LOVE! =)
ReplyDeleteThis is soooo lovely Amy! Such a wonderful gift. It takes a strong person to go through what your friend's gone through, and to come out of it finding happiness is just amazing.
Hmm what to name it... How about "Path To Happiness" since it seems like your friend's taken quite a journey to where she is now.
I love this pattern. I like how the dark brown is the focal point yet the light brown mirrors the same pattern. I think Yin and Yang Squared would be a good name. Two basic blocks working together in different color combinations to make something greater than either could be separately.
I suffer from depression and hit rock bottom soon after our first daughter was born. Thankfully I was able to realize (after a long while) that I needed help and got it but it has been a long hard journey. Not for the faint in heart - bless my husband. Mental health issues often show up in the early 20's. The stresses of school, missions, marriage and being out on ones own don't help the trend either. I hope we can all keep an eye out on our young adult friends and family and not be afraid to speak out and talk to them if we think there is an issue.
your quilt is really amazing (equally impressed that it came all from the stash too), I think i saw that inspirational magazine photo too because something like this has been floating around my "i'll make it when i have time" pile too. It would be great if you wrote up a pattern. Maybe you could call it "stash chain" or something..
I agree with your assessment that mental illness has a stigma that causes people to avoid it in conversation, even when the family members affected need open support more than anything. I don't know any family that is free of this type of trouble, but a whole lot of them pretend it isn't there..
I'm glad your friend was able to safely move on.
I think we're all thinking alike! I came up with connections and time after time (can anyone say that without thinking of Cyndi Lauper?) How about Time Traveler, or Stone's Throw/Skipping Stones (the way that when you throw a stone it skips across the water) I like the idea of nature because the quilt has such an organic feel to it. Whatever you name it, I'm ready to buy the pattern! ♥
ReplyDeleteThat quilt is awesome - what a story and you are so correct about how people react/rally around different diseases.
Since it looks like building blocks - how about building a new beginning
Kinda looks like a ladder so - "ladder of happiness: or ladder of love - play on labor of love
Or Ups and downs but now happy
Or Happy begins now.
Can't wait for the pattern !!! what an awesome gift
the quilt is beautiful! thank you for sharing the story. You are so very right about how hard it is to help someone through dealing with mental illness issues. So, I just give it to God and pray.
I have a name for the quilt for you...well a couple..
"Life's journey" or Journey to the other side."
oh and I love the binding...nice pop of color.
What about calling it "Plinko"? It reminds me of that game on The Price is Right where the person stands at the top of the board and drops the plinko chip and watches it bounce on the pegs before it lands on the big money at the bottom! Love this look, and I can picture it in colors for my son's bed.
ReplyDeleteI've seen a similar quilt called Charm Bracelet, but this one is almost a double charm bracelet. It reminds me of those bead curtains you can buy for doors and windows, and it also looks a bit psychedellic because the eyes can shift focus from dark to light, so "Bead Curtain Mirage" would be a supercool name!
ReplyDeleteFor me, I like the binding, it's blue!! :)
I think the quilt is beautiful, I look to it and think in life's crossroads: you know, life is a road with crossroads, and you go and make choices (so in away you turn right or left) and sometimes when you look back you can see the pattern, why you are where you are.
You're also right in mental diseases reaction: it's not easy fo the patiente and to the surrounder people, much have to do yet. All the happiness in the world to your family.
I married into a family that has multi-generations of mental history. Not only is mental illness hard on the person suffering from it but also on the families and friends. And you're right about the social stigma attached to mental illness and the reluctance for people to talk about it.
As for the quilt...I love the pattern and design! The name 'stepping stones' comes to mind. Kind of like life. We must step on each stone to learn something about ourselves, our strength, faith, etc. And each stone makes a path that leads us to happiness. Such as a wonderful husband for your friend!
Kim Nielsen
A beautiful quilt, with a beautiful story (with a happy ending). I cried when I read it because it resonated with me - when my husband was diagnosed with cancer, we had so much support from friends and family and complete strangers. However, when he was battling depression a year later it was very isolating and we both felt like we couldn't go to people as we had a year earlier. Our story does have a happy ending in that he is in remission from both the cancer and the depression!
Anyway - I think a name for this beauty would be "Love's Links" - you and your friend have been linked together for a long time, and as we grow and evolve, we just add links to our own chain...
I am so happy for your friend. And I love the way you wrote about 'mental illness'. It couldn't have been said better!
I was a single mom raising 4 kids all on my own for many years, and started my own interior design business...which eventually led me into the quilting industry. So when I say 'kudos' to your friend...it goes out with admiration.
Beauty of a quilt you made her. I'm sure it will touch her heart.
Thank you for sharing the very personal story behind your gorgeous quilt. I love all the quilt-names that have been suggested. Here's a couple more - Goodbye Hello or Rhythm of Life - to honour your friend's past and to embrace her future. Catherine
ReplyDeleteIt looks like pictures frames to me, so I would probably just call it the picture frame pattern. Maybe since you made it for your friend & her first husband had such bad mental illness, you could give a portion to an org. that benefits those with mental illness or research of the diseases?
ReplyDeleteMy suggestions is "Connections". It is the connections that we have with others that are so important. All the best to your friend.
ReplyDeleteI work as an art therapist with the mentally ill. I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes it is very hard to deal, & I get to go home at night. I can't imagine what it would be like to live with it myself... it brings a completely different level of compassion to the plate. One that many are not familiar with because of fear. Which is too bad, there is so much to learn from everyone on this earth. Everyone has some impact and connection to another... no escaping that.
I would call it: It's All Connected. Or All Connected.
May this marriage be Blessed! :)
This story of your friend is very moving to say the least. I totally agree with you about the whole mental health thing. In my life, I have know several individuals who battle with this type of thing on a daily basis. Tough to say the least. I hope that your find has truly found her pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. I know she sure found that in you!
ReplyDeleteOooooh, I really love this quilt! PLEASE print the pattern. For a name: how about "Grecian Link" if you want sophisticated or "In and Out" if you don't. It would be an honor to name such a lovely thing!
ReplyDeleteLove the story. I would call it "finding the way out" because it made me think of all those puzzles where you "start here" and then go through all these funny little trails and backtracks, trying to find the way to the end, where you get out. Sounds like that was sort of her story, too.
My family deals with lots of depression and alcoholism, so I know about mental health issues. A day at a time.
very touching story, very beautiful quilt. Amazing how the human mind/body & soul affect so many lives through the years. I immediately thought of the stories your friend will be able to tell her grandchildren some day. How even in the most difficult situations she pressed on & has been blessed. To me she has a real 'legacy' to share with her family. Good work, good story, good friend.
ReplyDeleteI'd name the pattern "Friendshiop chain" BTW- I adore this!!
Melissa Houston
I've been thinking about this since your post came up in my reader a whole week ago. And my best suggestion is "chocolate squares" which has nothing to do with friendship, or finding one another, or love, or new hope and marriage. Of course it may or may not have everything to do with my current craving of those little Dove squares...
ReplyDeleteA fantastic quilt and I can appreciate your story behind it. I have seen too many dealing with PTSD through their life experiences in the military or other events and even though it's common knowledge it happens, passint the stigma point is very difficult. I am glad your friend has found happiness with a new partner.
And that makes me think the title should reflect that... "There's no blocking happiness"
I think the fabrics seem happy in and of themselves.
Beautiful quilt, touching story. For a name, how about "The bonds that bind us". Too heavy maybe? Just seems to fit all around with the story past and present, and the pattern.
"Mental illness" runs in our family too, and I agree that it's a horrible taboo stigmatizing experience for all involved. So much is being learned though. I prefer to call it more of a "neurological disorder". I'm SOOO happy for your friend, and hope that the wedding was wonderful!!
I'm way late posting on this post but I was attracted by the beatiful quilt and touched by the story behind it. I also have mental illness in my family. It's not severe, but nonetheless, unsettling.
The blocks remind me of a road wrapping around each colored/focus block. Maybe "No Roadblocks" would be an appropriate tribute to your friend. It sounds like she had many "roadblocks" in her life that she didn't let get in her way. Glad that she's now in a good place - and lucky to have a friend like you!
This pattern reminds me or resembles a skyscraper with elevators going up and down. You can get whimsical and put people in some of the blocks/squares.
