<*� ~>.J � � � � , * ' * The College N. e w% VOL. XV, NO. 6 BRYN MAWR (AND WAYNE), PA., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1928 PRlfcE, 10 CENTS VARSITY DOWNS P. C. C. IN HOCKEY Beaten by Swarthmore Friday Team Stages Come-Back on Saturday. IMPROVEMENT NOTED The team that beat the Philadelphia �Cricket Chib 4-2 on Saturday morning was a different team from the one that suffered defeat on Friday. Something had happened overnight. In individual brilliance, in energy, in teamwork, they were miraculously improved. Two time- keepers, two small boys, and four dogs witnessed1 a game which was worthy of a far larger and "more enthusiastic audi- ence. The first half, although it ended in a lie. was the best. The improvement in the 'Bryn -Mawr p'.ayers was visible in the opening minute of play. Longstreth scored the first point almost immediately. The forward line was in splendid form, and the backs were turning up just where they were needed, instead of a few yards off. Shortly after Bryn JIawr's goal, the Criclfet Club team re- �gained its equilibrium, and Sue Cross, ail-American left inner, evened the score. For some time no more points were made, but the -balance inclined towards Bryn Mawr. Frequently an inch to the right or left would have meant a oaf her goal, but the forwards were uncertmn in their aim. and the Varsity was showing signs of fatigue. At length the Phila- delphia right"'wing, for once achieving the impossible. " evaded Hirschberg's strenuous stick and scored a second goal. This aroused the Bryn Mawr players, and 'they succeeded, in spite of repeated tumbles, in tieing the score. The half ended with a collision of head* in the alley whichtemporarily knocked out the opposing left halfback. Second Half Drags. On the whole, the playing in the second half was neither so sure nor so snappy as in the first. There was a good deal -of bunching, and.some careless passing. However, as the score was brought from 2 all to 4-2" in favor of Bryn Mawr we do not complain. At first the P. C. C. team frequently menaced the Bryn Mawr goal, but Johnny Reiser, in the posture of a lioness defending her young, -was able to ward off all attacks. The first score was made by Blanc-hard after a long dribble by Moore; and soon afterwards a second goal, made by Cap- tain Wills, insured a safe margin of vic- tory. The game ended just as the Varsity had safely extricated themselves from a penalty corner. Moore Stars. The outstanding star of the game was H. Moore. '32, who wore out two sticks in her enthusiasm. Her speed, her in- telligent passing, and the evident use of her head earned her the honors of the day. But the- old faithfuls were also on the- spot. Hirschberg's stick-work is so skillful and so reliable that we have almost begun to . take perfection for granted in the left back-field. The line-up was: Bryn Mawr: B'.anchard. Moore. Wills, Longstreth, Crane. Balch, G. Woodward, Freeman. Hirschbcrg, McCnlly, Reiser. Goals: Longstreth, 2; Blanchard, 1; Wills, 1. Armistice Day Tea Held in Common Room Saturday A tea was held in the Common Room on Saturday in honor of Armistice Day. Cdith Baxter, '3Q> acted as hostess and introduced five of the foreign graduate students who spoke of the student life in their respective countries. Miss Bax-' ter in her introduction stressed the fact that only by education and meeting people of other nationalities could we b'uild up an international � way of think- ing. * The first to speak was Miss Griffiths, of the University of Wales. She ex- plained that this .University is made up of four' colleges in different parts of Wales. She herself comes from the smallest' and newest: the college at Swansea. AH are co-educational, and all offer the same general type of courses. A feeling of unity is engendered espe- cially by an institution called Inter-col- lege Week. Sports have a more imporT tant place in British Universities than they do here. Miss Griffiths -said. The University of Wales sends one member to (Parliament. Miss den Hartog said a few words aUout the Universities of Holland. There are six in a country of seven million people. The Dutch are fond of democ- racy and liberty, and this is reflected in their educational system. They five at home or in boarding houses, not in dormitories, and so their education is cheaper than here. Their attendance at classes is absolutely unsupervised, and the first examination docs not come for three years. This complete liberty is sometimes dangerous. But a student may safely spend as much as half a year looking around and amusing himself before he need settle down to work. The independence of- the Dutcli is likewise reflected in their sectarianism and their individualism.- Each religious group wants an institution of its own, and within the colleges there is little collec- tive life. The informality and love of tradition of the students of Holland was likewise mentioned. Miss Bachstrom, of the University of Upsala, electrified the guests with her account of the annual spring festivity in Sweden, when the students dance all night and most of another with short intervals for eating and watching the sunrise. In her account of student life in Ger- many, Miss Seifert emphasized the part played by the corporations, the powerful students' clubs, whose members are so noticeable in German University towns with their brightly-colored caps and belts They take the lead in dancing, in fenc- ing, and in the student self-government associations, although they are. numeri- cally a minority. The German students take a great interest in politics, and the government has to reckon with student Duhamel to Speak Author of "Voyage De Moscou' Will Discuss French Novel. ar*.' to lecture before, or lyceums of Lou dam or Geneva, dition that goes tcenth cent i Georges Duhamel. Dr. Georges Duhamel, wlio is speaking under the auspices of the French Club in Goodhart Hall on Monday evening. November io, is* known in Europe not onljtas the poet, novelist and critic that America already knows, but also as a. lecturer of distinction. He has become since the war one of the French men of letters who arg.Vmost frequently asked great literary clubs , Brussels, Amster- thus falls in a tra- ck through the nine- fat as Sainte-Beuve. A call that came last year to Dr. Duhamel to -Hjeak before the "Academy of the Artistic Sciences" of Russia, has resulted for us in his newly-published Voytgt Pe Moscou. Internationally-Minded Writer. A great traveler since his student days, when he used to spend his vacations in walking trips through France, Italy, Ger- many and the mountains of Switzerland and Austria. Dr. Duhamel is one of the' most internationally minded of contem- porary French writers, while remaining one of the most French. His base is dis- tinctly Paris not Geneva, but his sym- IKttliy is worldwide. The overwhelming sense that he has of the essential broth- erhood of the men of all nations seems to be what, remains with him from his excursion into the doctrine of "I'Vnani- misme." This doctrine was evolved by Jules Romains in the little group of young poets and artists who from 1006 to 1908 made an attempt at community living at their "Abbaye" at Cretefl near Paris. Duhamel was a member of the group and it was between 1006 and 1014 that he wrote most of his published verse and his studies in the poetry of Paul Claudel. During his fifty months as surgeon at Jhc front be produced the two b��ks that brought him fame: ha I ic Dcs Martyrs and Civilisation.

The re4t of the feoard will be selected by the two heads. ' Good-Bye, Mr. Smith, and Good Luck to Mr. Hoover "1 feel myself in a peculiarly unhappy situation this morning." began. Mrs. Manning in Chapel last Wednesday�the day when news of Mr. ?lobver's election was being broadcast all over the-United States. However,' the Dean proceeded to declare herself a conservative in the matter of politics: the sudden making over of a government and the inaugurat- ing of a "new plan of procedure would probably not do us any good, 'and would only get us into more difficulties. We ought to be able to hope for reforms from the Republican party as well as from the Democratic party. Yet one is tempted to question Mr, Hoover's ability in the leadership which Mr. Coolidgc sorely-lacks. But naturally Mr. Hoover's disqualifications were not so much the deciding factor in the campaign as those of Mr. Smith. The latter's religion, his connection with Tammany, and his stand �en the prohibition issue swung the elec- tion for the Republican candidate. Per- sonally Mrs. Manning would have liked to see a Catholic elected: she considered his affiliation with the Now York politi- cal Organization but an unfortunate com* plication; and although she disagreed with his views on the prohibition ques- tion, she admired the positive position he took to uphold his convictions on the issue. t. Turning from her own beliefs the Dean considered the future possibilities of Mr. I louver as administrator. He is ex- ceedingly shrewd in appointments, and it lie is able freely to choose the men to work with him his Presidential career CAN WE ATTAIN THE NEW ORDER? Dr. Fenwick ConderAhs Anar- chy of Old Way of Set- tling' Disputes. WAR IS OUTGROWN Dr. Fenwick gave a very inspiring Armistice Day speech in Chapel on Mon- day morning, November 12. In its sub- stance, it was a plea for The World Court and the League of Nations; for the new order in international affairs as opposed to the old system of war and anarchy, which is no longer endurable nor possible. # He recalled the cost of the war: ten million men were killed on the field of battle, twenty million were wounded, ten million died of disease or privation dur- ing the blockades, ten million children were made orphans, and five million women liecamc widows. All this was the result of four years of conflict. But the sacrifice of lives was not the only price we had to pay. The war left us a heritage of hate and bitterness which it will take at least another generation to outgrow, just as after the Civil War the South remembered its hatred and bitterness towards the North. Why must there Ik- this terrible price? In commemoration of Armistice Day we ask the question.. Dr. Fenwick related how he had-seen very young boys in Merlin in the early days of the war marching to what they believed was the necessary defense of their country. That the government was militaristic cannot alone explain the self- deception of a whole nation. In London, Dr. Fenwick saw exactly the same thing: youths inarching to the defense of their country; and in Paris and Russia and Italy it was the same. The youth of all the nations, en one side as mi the other, die in the same belief, with the feeling that they arc performing the supreme Christian act. Not only individual coun- tries, but the system as a whole is at fault. The principle on which interna- tional disputes have been regulated is a will'begin fortuitously. Moreover on several points Mr. Hoover has a chance I principle of anarchy: each nation has to do excellent work, perhaps better than heen the judge in its own case. Nine Will You Debate or Will You Listen to Others? ��. The debating club, of which we warned our readers some weeks ago, has actually "become a going concern. It will hold its first public dejrate this Thursday eve- ning at 0.15 in the Common Room in Goodhart Hall. The subject, one which opinion. At present the German students j should be of interest to everyone, is: incline towards the right, in opposition to the Social -Democratic party. The German government has tried to put a stop to the movement for Union with the Austrian students because it also was a manifestation of the right only. Miss Seifert urged any American students who went to Germany not to.be discouraged if they were slow to make friends among the GeTmans. This, necessarily arises from the lack of collective life in foreign Universities. ^"" Miss Hingres spoke for France. She also pointed out the individualistic .char- acter of student life in Paris. There is that which Mr. Smith would have done. Especially upon the confused problem of farm relief he may work to great advan- tage, aided by his wide and intimate knowledge of farming difficulties and market reforms. In regard to putting through plans for the extension of the national budget and general economic mefcures, one wonders what devices Mr.' Hoover will use. And. finally, one "ques- tions his attitude oh foreign policy which now seems rather nationalistic�although of course Mr. Hoover has had consider- able experience in such "matters. ,JJ am looking forward to the next Presidential term with curiosity and nope." Mrs. Manning concluded. "How- ever, how could any one have watched the Republican administration for the last eight years without embracing the chance of repudiating during this election all that it has stood for in the past." "Resolved: That the English tutorial system of education is better than the American system of lectures and exami- nations." The debaters will be : A. Mer- rill. A. Lord. J. Wise and V. Hobart. There will be two on each side, but no one knows yet which will be on which side. Afterwards the audience will have a chance to vote on the decision itself, and a meeting will he held to vote on League BeloW Quotil the future organization of the club.

Splinter hemorrhages are small areas of bleeding (hemorrhage) under the fingernails or toenails.
Fingernail hemorrhage
Splinter hemorrhages look like thin, red to reddish-brown lines of blood under the nails. They run in the direction of nail growth.
They are named splinter hemorrhages because they look like a splinter under the fingernail. The hemorrhages may be caused by tiny clots that damage the small capillaries under the nails.
Splinter hemorrhages can occur with infection of the heart valves (endocarditis ). They may be caused by vessel damage from swelling of the blood vessels (vasculitis ) or tiny clots that damage the small capillaries (microemboli).
There is no specific care for splinter hemorrhages. Follow your health care provider's instructions for treating endocarditis.
Contact your health care provider if:
Note: Splinter hemorrhages usually appear late in endocarditis. Likely other symptoms will cause you to visit your health care provider before splinter hemorrhages appear.
Your health care provider will examine you to determine the cause of splinter hemorrhages. The health care provider may ask you the following medical history questions:
Physical examination may include special attention to the heart and blood circulation systems.
Laboratory studies may include:
In addition, your health care provider may order:
After seeing your health care provider, you may want to add a diagnosis of splinter hemorrhages to your personal medical record.

Rwa Bineda - Batur to Agung
Rwa Bineda is the Balinese philosophy that describes the continuous play between opposing forces. This is the concept that gives us masculinity and femininity, creation and destruction, yin and yang and all the interactions between these forces. The Balinese people understand this concept as integral to maintaining balance and see it in all aspects of life, even in the way they interpret the very land that they live on.
Spend the day with us in the mountains of northeast Bali. Travel from the feminine heart of the island at Lake Batur to the masculine peak of Gunung Agung. This journey brings you to two of the most sacred temples in Bali: Puru Ulun Danau Batur and Pura Besakih, the Mother Temple for the Balinese. We pray in both temples in the same day in order to bring balance to the opposing forces in our lives.
For a perfect end to the day, you may choose to relax in one of our riverfront healing suites with our Ida Pinggala massage while one male and one female therapist join in harmony to deeply relax and massage your body back to its natural equilibrium.
Duration of this healing journey: 1 full day +
* 10% of the proceeds from each Healing Journey are contributed towards building social programmes for the local villages and temples involved and Balinese cultural preservation.

I think this is a case of "the devil's in the details". There's defiantly a difference between killing, and homicide. There's killing another creature, (like an animal) and then there's killing another human. If you recall, the Powerpuff Girls killed countless giant monsters in the show. But I guess it all comes down to a matter of individual perspective. What's considered "okay" as far as killing goes, is more of a persons point of view. Hell, that's why there are vegans/vegetarians in this world.

And not even purposeful killing either, even killing someone by mistake or indirectly can really mess a person up.
That's very true. Especially at a young age. If Buttercup DID kill Samantha, and came to regret it, it would hit her hard. She'd probably flip shit over it, right at that very moment. Honestly, I would love to see this happen. Buttercup having regrets would be, as Blord put it "pure character development gold".
Anyways, moving on. So how do you think the Samantha death scene will play out? Do you think we'll all rejoice at the sight of her demise (well, most of us at least)? Or upon her death, will we all learn her back story, and find out that she was just "misunderstood" this whole time, and her passing will be a great tragedy?
Also I know I already said this but I would like to bring it back up.
Now we know Sam will die, this means Buttercup will regain possession of Jack's sword. Most likely she'll go and help Blossom, and when she does, she'll have the sword in hand. My question is, would she use the sword on Bell and/or Gir? I mean, she probably wouldn't kill Bell with it. I can see her maybe cutting off a limb with it, or even using the blunt side of the sword. But I highly doubt she'd intentionally kill Bell with it.

Proves Abstruse T�P*C m Veltmann Lecture Hylozooistic and Atomistic Types Are Postulated as Philosophy Basis MOTION PREDICATED ' ON EXISTENCE OF VOID "Materialism is a gay companion and a charming: mistress to the mind, though it is devious from logical paths." With this phrase Dr. Velt- mann, lecturing in the Common Room on Thursday, October 12, illustrated his attitude toward his subject, An- cient and Modern Materialism. He established himself as an "interested non-partisan," because he believes thfct such an anti-humanistic and un- tenable doctrine as materialism sel- dom receives unprejudiced analysis. Mate/ialism holds an important place/in the evolution of thought. Philosophy arises from materialism and/ often returns to it in the course of (development. Though a material- istic system is not so suggestive as an idealistic one, it never fails to explain a great many facts. Unfortunately, however, materialism has become oversimplified as well as reactionary in its ideas; it cares little for con- sistency and is incapable of self cri- ticism. There are two kinds of material- ism: Hyloozoistic and Atomistic. The first deals with matter as an extend- ed and continuous substance endowed with self movement and adaptation. These are not intrinsically material values, and this type of thought can only be regarded as a compromise between materialism and idealism. The Atomistic materialism, which does not describe matter as continu- ous, but. rather as something made up of an infinite number �� particles, is the true material philosophy. The history of Atomistic Material- ism is bound up with the Eleatic idea that nothing can come out of nothing, that being can neither arise from non-being nor become non-being, but is eternal. Aside from this point, the Atomists were reactionary to the Eleatic School. Parmenides, in es- tablishing his system, had broken off all relations with the outward phe- nomenal world. Therefore, Leucippus, the founder of Atomism, sought to re- late the world of plurality and ap- pearance with the real world by re- storing the ultimate reality of mani- Contlnued on Page Four Freshman Statistics Reveal 120 Entrants Private Preparatory Schools Furnish More Pupils Than Public Schools AVERAGE AGE 17 YEARS IS The freshman class this year large, but not so large as many others, havinfe 120 students, compared to the 125 of the 1937 class. They come from only 19 different States, com- pared to the 26 States last year. There is � just one foreign student, from Syria. They seem to be a little near- er home than usual, for exactly 60 per cent, come from New York and Pennsylvania, and 14.3 per cent, from New England (considerably more than last year); from the Middle West, 14 per cent, (less than last year's 16 per cent.); from the South, 6 per cent, (more than usual); and from the Far West, only .8 per cent, (less than usual). This concentration of neanby girls seems a little strange after the new liberal entrance require- ments for distant girls. Most of the freshmen live in large cities, for 25 come from New York City and another 26 from Philadel- phia. Most of the others come from other large eastern cities. Ten per. cent, of the class is non-resident, while the college average is 8 per cent.

Lantern Ceremonies Show Two Changes Singing Sustained by Placing Strong Voices Near Door During Exit LANTERNS ARE UNIFORM Bates House Changes Name and Situation Reorganization Finds Students in Charge of Social Worker Running Camp JEACH FACILITIES GOOD Speakers' Committee Changes Organization Instead of the small speakers' com- mittee which made all the arrange- ments for the lectures brought by the Undergraduate Association last year, a larger and more representative en- tertainment committee has been organ- ized to choose the lecturers for the coming year. One girl from every class in every hall has been elected to the committee for the twofold purpose of getting more ideas and a greater se- lection and of securing better support of and attendance at the college lec- tures. At the Undergraduate mass meeting on Monday, October 15, the undergraduates decided that the lec- turers are to be paid with the admis- ef] iast summer in an attractive cot- Bates House last summer underwent a metamorphosis into the Bryn Mawr Summer Camp. To signify its inde- pendence from New York affiliations, the camp changed not only its name, but its organization and its location. The camp is now supported by the Bryn Mawr League and the under- graduates, and is run by the under- graduates with the aid of a faculty advisory committee. It was located last summer and is to be located in the future at Avalon, a small sea- shore resort near the southern tip of New Jersey, which possesses one of the best beaches along the Jersey coast. Long Branch, where old Bates House was situated for many years, doubtless had its charm for the chil- dren and for the undergraduates who acted as their teachers. There was an amusement pier offering such at- tractions as marathon dances and merry-go-rounds; there were beer gar- dens and immense week-end crowds from New York. It was, however, too big a place to be ideal for a sum- mer camp. The children had to cross two main highways on their way to the narrow and crowded beach and had to be dresed and undressed in bath houses at the beach. Last, but not least, in the way of disadvantages, a railroad ran directly past the house. The children at Avalon were hous- \ sion fees to enable the Undergraduate : Association to lessen its annual dues. A list of the members of the com- jmittee follows so that anyone who /has any suggestions to make concern- ' ing the choice of lecturers for the year may speak to her class representative. Miss Park, Mrs. Chadwick-Collins, Polly Barnitz and Peggy Little are all ex-officio members of the committee. The following are the undergraduate representatives on the committee: Rockefeller�R. Perry, A. Marbury, G- Righter; Denbigh�A. Lukens, B. Cary, H. Harvey, G. Fales; Merion� E. Chamberlayne, M. Goldwasser, M. Reed, C. Sanders; Pern West�D. Mor- gan, E. Putnam, M. Jackson, J. Grant; Pern East�E. 'Cheney, B. Merchant, E. Ballard, G. Leighton; Wyndham� M. Staples; Non-Resident, J. Baker. tage directly on the main beach and recreation center. Negotiations are under way to rent another house in Avalon. The purpose of the camp is to give the children sunshine, fresh air, good food and plenty of sleep, and, above all, to take them away from the city environment. Twenty of them came at a time in three groups for two weeks each. St. Martha's House, in the slums of Philadelphia, selects the children. They range from four to eight years in age and the majority of them are Italian. It would be hard to find on the whole more intelligent or more attractive children than those who come to the camp. They have had no opportunity to be spoiled, for they belong usually to immensely large families. They are vitally interested Continued on Page Six Miss Park Tells Means of Getting Information Miss Park, in her chapel address on Tuesday, October 9, said that the pat- tern of college activities and regula- tions can be both learned and explain- ed. Through various channels of in- formation, every student has the chance to understand the organization of Bryn Mawr, as it actually affects her. The information that can be gained falls into two categories: there is the direct information concerning rules, requirements, the hours of classes, and so on; and there is the more indirect information which explains the causes of these established customs. The lat- ter type of information is very im- portant because through it the under- graduates may learn that the organi- zation of the college is not an arbi- trary matter, but has been gained by definite and far-reaching policies. The practical way to learn about these policies and also to settle misun- derstandings is through the people who are concerned with the adminis- tration. The president's office is al- ways at the disposal of the students. Dean Manning and Miss Ward are ready to discuss any academic diffi- culties they may have. In addition to this Miss Park is at home on Tues- days from three until five, where any- one may come who has problems that require longer discussion. The wardens of the halls are ex- tremely helpful informants. All of them have had college experience and and ^"^ the last versc verv soft,v' many of them have attended Bryn|but with remarkable understanding Mawr either as undergraduates or as an" quality. Lantern Night, one of Bryn Mawr's oldest and loveliest traditional cere- monies, took place in the Library Cloisters on Friday, October 19. Fav- ored this year with clear skies and a nearly full moon, the occasion had a most effective natural setting. It was also unmarred by the passage of the perennial freight train which has spoiled not a few previous Lantern Nights. There was a large assem- blage of admiring parents and inter- ested friends who gathered at an early hour on the Cloister Roof to watch the Sophomores hand the Freshmen their lanterns of dark blue, the class color. The Freshmen, arrayed for the first time in their caps and gowns, filed si- lently into the Cloisters and formed a semi-circle around the pool in the cen- ter. After what seemed an inter- minable delay (as is also traditional) the Sophomore Hymn, PaVas Athene, was heard first softly and then with growing volume as the ranks were in- creased. Slowly they moved out of the Library and into the Cloisters in two long lines, the lighted lanterns swinging in time to their pace. The success or failure of Lantern Night often hinges on the ability of the Sophomores to set the correct tone to the ceremony by starting in unison. This the Class of 1937 successfully ac- complished. But no sooner had they begun thus auspiciously than the left hand column, forgetting their explicit instructions, neglected to watch the swinging Lanterns of the Seniors, who were keeping time for them, and, con- sequently, fell half a syllable behind. This alarming situation was ended when, with great presence of mind and remarkable unanimity of decision, they all stopped and took up the song at the right point. From then on they sang together with real power and feeling. This was especially true at the end when, after having given the Freshmen their lanterns, they vanish- ed quietly to a corner of the Cloisters High Tribute Is Paid to Dr. M. J. Wagoner in Memorial Service President Park, Dean Manning, Dr. Bond and Dr. Riesman Are Speakers SIMPLICITY, SYMPATHY , ESPECIALLY PRAISED graduate students., As part of the ad- ministration, they are in constant touch with the authorities. One of the most valuable as well as the most available channels of in- formation is the College News. Miss Park praised the conscientiousness of the editors and the accuracy of their material. They publish reliable facts about both the past and the future of the college. There is also the College Council. This organization, while it has no ex- ecutive power, is an important clear- ing house for the discussion of college affairs. It began twelve years ago and its membership includes the Pres- ident, the Dean, the Director of Publi- cations, the presidents of the Under- graduate, the Student Government, and the Athletic Associations, the president of the League, the four class presidents, the Editor of the Col- lege News, and a representative each from the wardens, the faculty, the Graduate Club, and the Non-resident Club. If a student wishes to submit some matter for discussion, she has only to speak to her class representa- tive. Chapel itself can be regarded as an- other channel of information. The ad- dresses, usually by Miss Park or Mrs. Manning, always concern college af- fairs. The talks are often about plans for the future, and in this way the students are given the chance to learn about the plans, and thus prepare themselves for later decisions. Miss Park concluded her talk by saying that the habit of getting accur- ate information and forming opin- ions on it was an excellent one. An accurate knowledge of facts will al- ways serve as a goodvsafeguard, since we live in a world full of propaganda and forced opinions. The Freshmen then broke into their song, Sophias, starting off nicely if a Continued on I'ase Four The legendary founder of the pro- fession of medicine was an Egyptian whose name meant "He Who Cometh in Peace," and President Park gave a name resembling this to Dr. Mar- jorie Jeffries Wagoner, late physician of Bryn Mawr College. At the serv- ice held in her memory in Goodhart Hall on Monday afternoon, President Park's account of Dr. Wagoner's life, and the tributes paid by Mrs. Man- ning, Dr. Earl D. Bond, and Dr. David Riesman to her character and profes- sional achievement, all manifested her right to the title, "Giver of Peace." President Park began the ceremony by saying that it was impossible to speak directly of the college's great loss in the death of Dr. Wagoner. Yet to give even a brief history of her life would be of help, for the facts are eloquent, and those who knew her can complete the outline from their knowl- edge. In 1896 Marjorie Wagoner was born in Philadelphia, of sturdy Scotch-Irish stock. She prepared for Bryn Mawr at the Narberth High School and stud- ied here during the four years of the War. After graduating with high rank, she entered the Pennsylvania Medical School, and in 1924 she com- pleted her interneship. That same year she married and also took upon herself professional duties at Bryn Mawr College under the supervision of Dr. Thomas Branson. Gradually she came to be completely in charge as college physician, and it was increasingly evident that she was greatly widening her field. She saw the students not as individual pa- tients alone, but also as a community. In trying to preserve the community health, she bent her efforts toward preventive measures. Employees came under her care; students were peri- odically examined; choice and care of food were supervised by her; and the Physical Education Department work- ed in conjunction with her. In addition to her activities here, for five years she was physician to the Bryn Mawr Summer School for indus- ('cmllnued on Page Three New Map of Bryn Mawr College Introduces Glamorous Personalities and Gay Events Sec Bryn Mawr First. The col- lege has a new map, very decorative and large enough to fill the biggest blot on your wall. It is a thing of beauty and a joy forever; the most un- aesthetically minded would be able to judge it good and thereby judge the artistic values correctly, and in years to come Bryn Mawrtyrs will undoubt- edly tie it in faded blue ribbon and encourage their grand and great- granddaughters to come to Bryn Mawr. All of the celebrities and all of the campus figures�some of them almost mythical to us of the present genera- tion of college�are on the map in full array. The first president of the College, James E. Rhoads, Miss ,M. Carey Thomas, and Miss Park lend impressiveness to the top of the map; while all of the famous people are to be found wandering around the cam- pus, all smaller than life, but none the less twice ai'natural. The Fac- ulty are to be found engaged in vio- lent debate along Faculty Row, all of them delivering themselves of final judgment upon the mysteries of the metaphysical world, if we are to judge from their eloquence of gesture and facial expression. Miss Appleby, who first introduced field hockey in Amer- ica, is standing on guard over the hockey fields. Students are attacking the Faculty, and the Faculty are re- taliating by hitting the students sharply on the shins in the usual big Student-Faculty hockey game. Fur- thermore, we have the Faculty caught in another and equally fascinating ithletic pose on the Faculty tennis court behind Merion: two members of the Faculty are charging up to the net, registering on their faces a turbu- lent state of mind and a desire to emote some gory classic down the court. Joe Graham is to be found walking, along one of the college walks, contem- plating breaking into some hall to spy upon the midnight oil-burners and spur on their labors with the cheer- ing word that all is well and that, although no marauders are abroad, the genial ghosts are walking. The Lantern Man is conducting Bryn Mawr, sans escort, into the safety zone beyond Rock arch. And, to wind up the list of celebrities, we have a whole troop of Bryn Mawrtyrs reunit- ing, and extolling the good old days, the Gay Nineties, with their banners and songs. Of course, what delights the soul most is that all of the undergradu- ates are shown in at least some one of their numerous disguises. We may see ourselves as others see us dancing with savage post-examination glee around the Senior Bonfire, casting into the flames the outward symbols of our culture�the blue books and the Fresh- men theme papers swirl in a great cone of smoke up the map. We have recorded for us our early baby days, when we first wore caps and gowns Continued op P��e Six

James P. Stevenson, MD
Last Modified: November 1, 2001
Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
I was diagnosed with stage II colon cancer in September 2000 at age 39. 21 lymph nodes were removed, all negative. No apparent spread. Angiolymphatic invasion present; B2 tumor. Bowel resection surgery performed. I am just completing 6 rounds of 5FU & Leucovorin. Is there any other treatment available for patients at my stage? My concern is that 5FU is an old drug and I've learned that it really doesn't offer much in adding to the percentage of survival. Also, what follow-up care would you recommend?
James P. Stevenson, MD, Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Hematology/Oncology Division of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, responds:
Although we cannot comment on your specific case, the current recommendations are that patients receive 5-FU and leucovorin for this stage of colon cancer. We know that people with Stage B2 colon cancer have a 75-80% chance of being cured with surgery alone. There is some controversy whether 5-FU chemotherapy benefits B2 patients, but some oncologists believe it does, and in younger patients it is reasonable to be aggressive in the overall treatment.
In terms of follow-up, a reasonable recommendation might be follow-up visits with an oncologist or surgeon every 3 months for 2-3 years, with blood work (including a serum CEA level) performed at each visit, then annually. Many oncologists may also perform an annual chest x-ray, but there is some controversy regarding this. A colonoscopy may be performed one-year after the surgery, and then annually or every 3 years depending on the findings of the post-operative exam.
Mar 6, 2015 - In patients with synchronous stage IV colorectal cancer who receive up-front modern combination chemotherapy, immediate colon surgery to remove the primary tumor is seldom necessary, according to research presented at the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, held from May 29 to June 2 in Orlando, Fla. These findings accompanied several other studies presented at the conference focusing on treatment of gastrointestinal cancers.

No politics for UNH endowment
Tuesday, January 29, 2013
Last semester, the University of New Hampshire's chapter of the Student Environmental Action Coalition (SEAC) pressured the university administration to divest the university's endowment from fossil fuels — presenting petitions, holding a modest demonstration, and issuing opinion pieces. In their passion to see the environment protected, it seems they have overlooked a plethora of serious financial problems that the university is facing.
Investments are made with the sole purpose of gaining the greatest possible returns, and that is the guiding objective which UNH uses in managing its portfolio. As soon as we stray from that goal, we lose the only reasonable standard by which a small group of people can make decisions about finances affecting a large group of people. As UNH Economics Professor Neil Niman was quoted in The Portsmouth Herald: "Let's say the average UNH student leaves with $36,000 in debt,' he said. 'The university says, 'We can divest ourselves, but this is going to cost us X return on investment, so we can't give out as much financial aid.' So instead of $36,000 in debts, students are going to have, say, $40,000 in debts. I'm not sure most students will take that on in order to promote this value.' […] He likened the reliance on exchange traded funds by most endowment funds to shopping at Walmart. 'Well-intentioned people want to keep Walmart out, but the fact is, some people have to shop there because they need to save money,' he said. 'How can you say you're not going to allow certain people to do what they want to do in order to subsidize your values?"
Finally, SEAC's proposal overlooks the fact that, in a democratic society, others hold convictions that are just as deeply rooted as our own. For instance, what if a student organization morally opposed to contraception wished to divest the university endowment from businesses which provide their employees with health care plans that cover contraceptives? If the fossil fuel divestment is pursued, this new precedent would require that the university assess such a request based on its merits and the personal beliefs of a small group of people, rather than dismissing the claim on the basis that investments are made in order to maximize returns.
UNH just can't afford to play politics with its endowment. |

EMBEDDED SYSTEMS CONFERENCE, San Jose, Calif., April 4, 2006 - Mentor Graphics Corporation (Nasdaq: MENT) today announced that Synchromesh Computing has validated the EDGE Tool Suite on the Freescale Semiconductor i.MX family of applications processors. The third-party validation, which was conducted under the "Cool Tool Experience" program, provides software developers with assurance that the EDGE software effectively supports the Freescale technology, including a complete and trouble-free, out-of-the-box experience.
According to Synchromesh Computing's testing and validation program, the EDGE Tool Suite scored above average on all categories tested including out-of-the-box experience (market readiness), documentation, functionality and system interoperability. The report further states that the EDGE Tool Suite performed well and can be recommended for the Freescale processors based on the ARM{reg} core, specifically the i.MX21, i.MXL, i.MX1 and i.MXS.
"In considering the selection of a processor for a design, it is important to consider the software tool chain," said Synchromesh Computing CEO, Alan R. Weiss. "After all, engineers don't stare at the processor package all day long - they work extensively with the software tools. Mentor Graphics' EDGE software really delivers a feature-rich environment where applications based on i.MX applications processors can be developed, debugged and executed efficiently and reliably. The more you use the EDGE tools, the more you appreciate their depth."
The Cool Tool Experience Market Ready Validation program tests the functionality and system interoperability of the various tools and hardware components. It then provides a unique scoring system that lets vendors know how well the company performed on factors customers care about, including software functionality, performance, documentation, installation, connectivity to embedded devices and technical support. Tools that pass the validation tests are then affixed with the Synchromesh Computing Tested and Validated Seal of Approval.
"The Synchromesh Computing Tools Market Ready Validation Program allows us to work closer with participating partners on a set of closely defined business and marketing programs. It also brings an additional level of verification and quality assurance from an out-of-box experience that Freescale desires for its customers. We want our customers to know Freescale is committed to providing reliable and trustworthy development tools support for the i.MX applications processor family," said Monica Hamilton, WMSG director of wireless developer relations, Freescale.
"Receiving the seal of validation and approval from Synchromesh Computing validates our product and our efforts," said Glen Johnson, product marketing manager, Embedded Systems Division, Mentor Graphics. "The real value we envisioned when submitting our product to Synchromesh Computing is that it brings us that much closer to addressing the real-world concerns and needs of our customers and establishes a basis for the ongoing evolution of our products."

The morning of Sept. 11, 2001, began as a bright, sunny early fall day. That morning, former President George Bush was reading to a group of students at Emma E. Booker Elementary School in Sarasota, Fla., when he was told that a plane had hit the World Trade Center in New York. Initially, an accident seemed the most likely explanation. But the reading event was cut abruptly short after an aide whispered to Bush that a second plane had hit the other Twin Tower.
The South Tower of the World Trade Center bursts into flames after being struck by hijacked United Airlines Flight 175 at 9:03 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2001. The North Tower continues to burn following an earlier attack by another hijacked airliner, American Airlines Flight 11.
This aerial shot by the New York City Police Department's Aviation Unit shows one of the towers burning from above.
People look out of the burning North Tower of the World Trade Center. Shortly after this photo was taken, the tower collapsed.
At 9:37 a.m., five hijackers flew American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon. Here, a rescue helicopter surveys damage as firefighters try to battle the intense flames.
A fourth hijacked flight, United Airlines Flight 93, crashed near Shanksville, Pa., at 10:03 a.m. after passengers reportedly fought with the hijackers. Here, investigators comb what little debris was left for the flight data recorder.
At 9:59 a.m., the South Tower of the World Trade Center collapsed, leaving a billowing cloud of toxic smoke and debris in its wake as seen in this photo taken by the U.S. Coast Guard.
The North Tower collapsed at 10:28 a.m. after burning for 102 minutes
More smoke and debris flood the streets of Manhattan shortly after the collapse of the North Tower.
This shot by the NYPD's Aviation Unit captures the collapse of the North Tower as it falls.
A man passes by a subway stop in this picture that captures the surreal atmosphere of Manhattan shortly after both towers collapsed.
In one of the more iconic 9/11 images, rescue workers carry the body of New York Fire Department Chaplain Mychal Judge, on a stretcher in the middle of this photo, after he was killed in the collapse of the South Tower.
Here, one of many workers covered in dust and debris walks the streets near the World Trade Center following its collapse.
New York City firefighters pour water on the wreckage of 7 World Trade Center, which collapsed later that afternoon after burning most of the day.
A crane lifts rubble from the ruins of the World Trade Center.
Firemen carry an injured man from the World Trade Center after both towers collapsed.
Workers walk near the wreckage of the World Trade Center.
Iron Workers Danny Parker and Eddie Scandel, on top of the rubble at Ground Zero, cut a piece of steel that once was the 74th floor of the World Trade Center.
In one of the most iconic images to emerge in the days after 9/11, former President George Bush stands on top of rubble at the World Trade Center site with retired New York City fireman Bob Beckwith. "I can hear you," he told rescue workers. "The rest of the world hears you. And the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon."
A man places his hand on a small part of a huge wall showing photos of missing people outside Bellevue Hospital in New York City -- a solemn reminder of the number of lives lost that day.

Oyster Creek Nuclear Alert: As Floodwaters Fall, More Questions Arise
7:10 am in Uncategorized by Gregg Levine
New Jersey's Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station remains under an official Alert, a day-and-a-half after the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission declared the emergency classification due to flooding triggered by Hurricane Sandy. An Alert is the second category on the NRC's four-point emergency scale. Neil Sheehan, a spokesman for the federal regulator, said that floodwaters around the plant's water intake structure had receded to 5.7 feet at 2:15 PM EDT Tuesday, down from a high of 7.4 feet reached just after midnight.
Water above 6.5 to 7 feet was expected to compromise Oyster Creek's capacity to cool its reactor and spent fuel pool, according to the NRC. An "Unusual Event," the first level of emergency classification, was declared Monday afternoon when floodwaters climbed to 4.7 feet.
Though an emergency pump was brought in when water rose above 6.5 feet late Monday, the NRC and plant owner Exelon have been vague about whether it was needed. As of this writing, it is still not clear if Oyster Creek's heat transfer system is functioning as designed.
As flooding continued and water intake pumps were threatened, plant operators also floated the idea that water levels in the spent fuel pool could be maintained with fire hoses. Outside observers, such as nuclear consultant Arnie Gundersen, suspected Oyster Creek might have accomplished this by repurposing its fire suppression system (and Reuters later reported the same), though, again, neither Exelon nor regulators have given details.
Whether the original intake system or some sort of contingency is being used, it appears the pumps are being powered by backup diesel generators. Oyster Creek, like the vast majority of southern New Jersey, lost grid power as Sandy moved inland Monday night. In the even of a site blackout, backup generators are required to provide power to cooling systems for the reactor – there is no such mandate, however, for spent fuel pools. Power for pool cooling is expected to come either from the grid or the electricity generated by the plant's own turbines.
As the NRC likes to remind anyone who will listen, Oyster Creek's reactor was offline for fueling and maintenance. What regulators don't add, however, is that the reactor still needs cooling for residual decay heat, and that the fuel pool likely contains more fuel and hotter fuel as a result of this procedure, which means it is even more at risk for overheating. And, perhaps most notably, with the reactor shutdown, it is not producing the electricity that could be used to keep water circulating through the spent fuel pool.
If that sounds confusing, it is probably not by accident. Requests for more and more specific information (most notably by the nuclear watchdog site SimplyInfo) from Exelon and the NRC remain largely unanswered.
Oyster Creek was not the only nuclear power plant dealing with Sandy-related emergencies. As reported here yesterday, Nine Mile Point Unit 1 and Indian Point Unit 3–both in New York–each had to scram because of grid interruptions triggered by Monday's superstorm. In addition, one of New Jersey's Salem reactors shut down when four of six condenser circulators (water pumps that aid in heat transfer) failed "due to a combination of high river level and detritus from Hurricane Sandy's transit." Salem vented vapor from what are considered non-nuclear systems, though as noted often, that does not mean it is completely free of radioactive components. (Salem's other reactor was offline for refueling.)
Limerick (PA) reactors 1 and 2, Millstone (CT) 3, and Vermont Yankee all reduced power output in response to Superstorm Sandy. The storm also caused large numbers of emergency warning sirens around both Oyster Creek and the Peach Bottom (PA) nuclear plant to fail.
If you thought all of these problems would cause nuclear industry representatives to lay low for a while, well, you'd be wrong:

quote:The entire thread is in the context of promoting a good decision...having the coverage. If you have one post that dealt with an at fault, or partailly at fault host driver, fine.

quote:If it's the uninsured motorists fault, then...well, they're shite out of luck. They are responsible for their own health coverage. It's not up to you to insure others. Why should you buy coverage for person x for the fault of person y...you're getting double whammy'd. As selfish as that sounds

quote:carry UM coverage with respects to their liability of driving on the road also with passengers in their vehicles whether they have health insurance or not?
quote: It's not up to you to insure others.
