The College News VOL. XLI, NO. 22 ARDMORE and BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 18, 1945 �S^BSK-cJBSrifi. PRICE 10 CENTS Development of Russian Culture Described in Simmons' Lectures Westernization of Russia Under Peter, Catherine, Traced Good hart, April 11. The work of * Peter the Great and Catherine the Great in eliminating the back- wardness of Russian civilization during the seventeenth and eight- eenth centuries was described by Dr. Ernest Simmons in his lec'turej on "Russian Civilization and the West". This is the second in the lecture series on Russian Civili- zation and Thought being pre- sented by the class of 1897. Through the application of western methods, Peter remodeled Russia in commercial and military fields, raising her to the status of a first-class power. He studied the military, commercial, industrial, and scientific institutions of the West at first hand and hired for- eign experts to introduce them to Russia. However, his reforms in no way affected his despotic poli- tical system. Peter needed men of practical knowledge for military and civil service and therefore made elementary education com- pulsory for the upper classes. His reign was "a period of preparation before Russia could absorb Euro- pean culture and thought," pointed out Dr. Simmons. In Catherine's reign the influ- ence of western culture caused Russia to become intellectually conscious and to develop a "cul- tural cosmopolitanism," explained Dr. Simmons. Western manners, literature, art, and thought were introduced. At first, the new Rus- sian culture was purely imitative of that of Prance and England, but an intelligentsia was growing. In the nineteenth century came the full flowering of Russian cul- ture with a national language, lit- erature, art, and music. This was the Golden Age of Russian poetry ____ and novel. Although Catherine the Great encouraged this cultural enlight- Concinued on Page'4 Ineffective Opposition oOffered in Russia To Czars Goodhart, Monday, April 16. "The fatal inertia which possessed the masses of educated Russians" towards any active part in a revo- lutionary change of Government, was emphasized by Ernest J. Sim- mons as the dominating trait of Russian thought in the nineteenth century. "Towards Revolution" was the topic of the third in a series of lectures on Russian civilization, in whicbW)r. Simmons traced the development of all philosophical thought in Russia before the ad- vent of Marxism. Ever present in the autocratic Czarist regime was the sustaining Continued on Page 4 Nason Supports Dumbarton Oaks At Mass Meeting Lower Merion High, April 11� "We have before us perhaps the greatest chance in tfiis century to determine the course of the world for war or for a constructive peace," asserted Dr. John W. Na- son, president of Swarthmore Col- lege, at a mass meeting about Dumbarton Oaks at which Miss McBride presided. President Nason said that we are on the eve of a momentous in- ternational conference which should, as Commander Stassen puts it, "prevent war of any con- sequence for the next hundred years." The question before us is whether or not, by human insight and goodwill, we can establish an international political organiza- tion which will maintain peace. Although we must bear in mind, Continued on Page 4 Joe Breaks Previous Silence To Tell of Ghostly Encounters by Louise Gorham '47 "If I were to tell you the story of my life, I'd be in the penitenti- ary in two minutes," chuckled Joe, a familiar figure to many who burn the midnight oil. One of a procession of night-watchmen all, curiously enough, named Joe, he retains the distinction of look- ing like a combination of Mr. Pickwick and a leprichaun who has been guarding the campus for thirty-six years. This is the first time he has allowed us to probe into his past, and while he hinted at a varied career, Joe refused to reveal his life before coming to Bryn Mawr. He confessed to a poor memory, saying, "the only thing I can tell ye is stories." Perhaps one of the most inter- esting things about Joe is his firm belief in ghosts and the spiritual world. He insisted that he had felt ghosts hit him or throw water on him, and had even seen them on campus. In his anxiety to per- suade his listeners of their exist- ence he cited numerous seances he had attended where the spirits were undoubtedly present, one of them even going so far as to give Joe a message which, believe it or not, got him a job in a Phila- delphia shipyard. He affirmed that due to their unchanging character they are more real than man, and that they were even then listen- ing to our conversation. His sin- cerity and the hazy light of the smoker produced an atmosphere in which even the skeptical inter- viewer was prepared for anything. In addition to his noctural du- ties, Joe is also an avid reader. Although his motto is to take nothing seriously, he expressed a preference for poetry, especially that of Robert Burns, and works on plant life and animals. He has spent a fortune on books, and be- lieves in learning all through your lifetime. In fact, to his mind, the man who never went to college should spend twice the tuition on reading matter. Lectures are also a favorite pastime with him. He would go anywhere to hear a speaker, no matter what his sub- ject, or in lieu of. that he/likes "to get the drift in the News! SwarthmoreCast Plans to Produce W. H. A udenPlay The Ascent of F6, Wystan Hugh Auden's verse play, written in col- laboration with Christopher Isher- wood, will be presented at Swarth- more College on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings of this week. Tentatively- scheduled to play in New York, it has been de- cided to have the production only at Swarthmore, due to war-time travel restrictions. On Thursday night students will be admitted free. The theme of the play, original- ly tragic, has been changed to an optimistic satire which seems to move on two levels. According to Mr. Sprague, The Ascent of F6 is one of the most significant of the experiments in reviving poetic drama, and he compared the tone of the play to that' of Hamlet. The poet himself has a walk-on role of a monk in the production. Faculty and students of Swarth- more college have joined to form an excellent amateur cast. Among the principal actors is Vivi French, a recent graduate of Bryn Mawr, who plays the role of Mrs. Ransom. The rest of the cast is as follows: Michael Ransom�Edward Tripp. Snobbish Lady Isabel Alwyn� Enid Hobart. f Blimpish General�Lucius Shero, College Registrar. Lord Stagnatle�Luther Mansfield, Professor of English. Brainy Cabinet Member, James Ransom�Earle Caesar. Mountaineers�Vaujghn Chambers, Robert Alfancre^ Frank Lyman. Abbot of Monastery�Robert Gil- key. Announcer�Howard Sahar. College Features Sherlock Holmes Friends of Sherlock Holmes and admirers of his creator, Arthur Conan Doyle, will have a real op- portunity to learn more about the great detective at the Haverford College Library during the four weeks ending May 5. Dr. How- ard D. Snyder, Chairman of the English Department at the Col- lege, has made arrangements with the Rosenbach Company, world- famed book dealers, to place on exhibtion the most sensational volumes from Conan Doyle's own criminological library, which the company owns intact. Most of the manuscripts, maps, books, pamphlets and association items on display are the property, of Haverford College, acquired largely by gift from members of the Baker Street Irregulars, al- though some are borrowed through the courtesy of nearby libraries and individuals. The Baker Street Irregulars, a group interested in Sherlockiana, have produced some diverting pseudo-scholarly articles to prove that various fantastic ideas con- cerning Holmes are true. These articles, slyly poking fun at the ponderous scholarship of learned journals, are based on the as- sumption that Holmes was a real detective, that Dr. Watson actu- ally wrote the stories, and that A. Conan Doyle was merely the lit- erary agent. One of the best known Irregulars, and most gen- erous contributor of rare manu- scripts and books to Haverford, is Christopher Morley. Shaw Production Called Overdone, Uneven in Tempo by Rosina Bateson '47 Roberts Hall, April 14. The per- formance of Shaw's Arms and the Man, produced by the Haverford Cap and Bells Club and the Var- sity Players- Friday nighf was un- fortunately reminiscent of an 01- sen and Johnson orgy. Handicap- ped by an audience .which was in the mood for a three ring circus, the production was redeemed slightly by the acting of a few individuals. Heavy-handed Caricature TShe most obvious faults of the production were its unevenness and the general tendency towards over-acting.' The total^ effect was one of heavy-handed caricature, and not of quick, light humor. The satirical plot, which should have been handled in a less dramatic Continued on Pace 4 College Unites In Service for Pres. Roosevelt Academy Treats British Problems Of Post-War Era Need for Faith in Future Stressed by Speeches And Prayer "Relations between Great Brit- ain and the United States" was the topic under discussion at the third session of the meeting of the American Academy of Politi- cal and Social Science, Friday, April 13, at the Ben Franklin Ho- tel. William L. Batt, vice chair- man of the War Production Board, presided at this meeting open to college students, and the speakers were Dr. George Soule, an editor Of the New Republic, Dean James M. Landis of the Harvard Law School, and Mr. Michael Wright, counselor of the British Embassy. Dr. Soule discussed Britain's economic problems, particularly in reference to the United States. British trade and British tariff policy will depend on two things, Dr. Soule said: the adoption by the United States of something resembling the Bretton Woods proposals to deal with fluctuations in the exchange market, and con- Continued on Page 4 Glee Club Plans Secular Concert In place of the usual Gilbert and Sullivan production, the Glee Club plans to give a gay secular concert which will include popu- lar music from Porgy and Bess, as well as British, Hungarian and Austrian Folk Songs. For the first time the Choir will do away with their black angel robes, and don pastel skirts and white blouses. This concert will be given for the college on Sat- urday, April 28, and will be free of admission for all. High points of the program in- clude "The Galway Piper" and familiar selections from The Gon- doliers, with a duet by Posey John- son '47 and Franny Binger '48. Soloists for the selections from Porgy and Bess are Ann Matlack '47 singing "It Ain't Necessarily So" and Benjie Beckwith '46 sing- ing "Summertime." In the inter- mission Bessie Evans '46 will play the piano. Goodhart, April 13. "We have come together this morning from _every part of the college to pay tribute to President Roosevelt. We meet in sorrow and anxiety." These words, spoken by Miss Mc- Bride, as she opened the college assembly, expressed the emotions of all those present at the memor- ial service for President Roosevelt held at noon on Friday. Not only had President Roose- velt been a leader of vision and strength, Miss McBride pointed out, but he had been a symbol to people all over the world "of the force a democratic nation could exert against the powers of fas- cism and nazism." Doctor Rufus F. Jones con- ducted the brief service of prayers, and a panel' of representative speakers spoke briefly * on the meaning of the nation's crisis, and the hope to be held for the future. Mr. Charles J. Rhoads, chairman of the Board of Directors of the College, and Dean Grant and Dean Taylor reviewed .the late Presi- dent's life and achievements, and emphasized the importance of faith in the new administration. Representing the student body, Patricia Behrens, '46, head of the Undergraduate Association, ex- pressed the feelings of uncertain- ty and fear which struck so hard at the undergraduates, the major- ity of whom had never known any other president. She went on, however, to point out that despite the understand- able shock and fear, the youth of the nation must build on the firm cornerstone left to us as a heri- tage by President Roosevelt. It is she concluded, our responsibility to impress on the youth of other nations that his ideals of democ- racy will continue to grow and develop. The Bryn Mawr choir sang Mozart's "Ave Verum" and Co- mendi's "De Profundis". The ser- vice closed 'with the hymn, "Oh God our help in ages past, our hope for years to come." � _____^ -----------------" ._, B. M.

Decaffeinated, which is also commonly referred to as decaf tea, is tea which has undergone a decaffeination process of one sort or another that has removed most of its caffeine. There are many different processes of decaffeinating tea. There are processes that are dangerous and have been made illegal, and ones that are completely safe without any health risks. The different processes in use have an impact on the tea, and can affect its flavor. There is also a process today that still uses a possible carcinogen, so it's important to learn about the processes of decaffeination which are used on the tea you are buying.
Different decaffeination processes used on teaCarbon Dioxide Carbon dioxide or CO2 decaffeination is completely safe, and it's extremely effective at removing caffeine. It's also excellent at preserving the flavor. It's the safest process that maintains most of the flavor. It uses highly compressed CO2 in gas form, which becomes a fluid under pressure. The only negative to this process is the cost; it's expensive.Ethyl Acetate Ethyl acetate is a compound that occurs naturally. It is found in fruits and it does occur in tea leaves, though in very small amounts. This process is completely safe, but removes a little more of the flavor compared to other processes. However, the ethyl acetate process is inexpensive.Methylene Chloride / Dichloromethane Methylene chloride, or dichloromethane, is possibly carcinogenic and it is toxic in large concentrations. It is an effective process and does preserve the flavors, but it's risky. This decaffeination process is legal in the United States and is regulated by the Food & Drug Administration. The low concentration left in decaf tea probably does not pose a large health risk, but there have been analyses of teas in the past which have had levels above the legal limit. It's difficult to find out which teas come from companies which use this process, as they generally do not make it known due to the negative perception about this process.Benzene Benzene is a process that has been banned and has not been used for a long time. It is a dangerous carcinogenic chemical that can lead to many health problems and is not safe to be used in a decaffeination process.TrichloroethyleneThis is another chemical that has fortunately been banned and has been ceased to be used. It is unsafe for decaffeination, and was banned due to studies showing that it causes liver tumors in mice.In Summary: Carbon dioxide decaffeination is the most preferred method. It's safe and preserves the flavor, though it's a little more expensive. Ethyl acetate is safe, but doesn't preserve as much of the flavor. But its decaffeination process is less expensive. Methylene chloride is legal, though it is a little more risky to use. This decaffeination process is regulated by the FDA. Other processes which were used in the past are trichloroethylene and benzene, which have been banned due to the health risks, and are no longer used.

Lisbon is still one of the favorite cities of the tourists for a getaway. When making the decision, factors such as price, climate and the quality of gastronomy, safety and tourist attractions count on their decision. Lisbon is as graceful as much can be, due the friendliness of the people and the amount of history revealed at every turn. Bathed by the Tagus River and within walking distance of the Atlantic Ocean, this city has in its surroundings calm and beautiful beaches, as well as idyllic places – such as Sintra, for example - places that cannot fail to be discovered.
With a population of 600 000 inhabitants in the urban area and about three million in the suburban area, Lisbon was invaded by the Moors in the year 714 and latter conquered in 1147, by D. Afonso Henriques, Portugal's first king. With influences from various civilizations, clearly visible in the various monuments and found remains, Lisbon has undergone major transformations especially after the 1755 earthquake, which destroyed 85 percent of the city and killed almost 40 thousand people. From a medieval city it grew into a modern structure that today we may see thanks to the Marquis of Pombal, who was at the time Prime Minister of the king, Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo and decided to bury the dead and care for the living by constructing earthquake-proof buildings (Pombaline Cage structure), wide avenues forming cross roads and cobblestone pavements. Blue skies almost all year round and a mild climate invites one to discover this important part of history, as well as the glorious days of the Discoveries, when Portugal was led to the four corners of the world. Following the River Tagus we will end on the Estoril Coast and Cascais, where you'll find some of the most restful and beautiful beaches of Lisbon.

My dog's favorite treat out there!
By susie lou
from Spokane, WA
Comments about Only Natural Pet Green Beef Tripe Nibblets:
It's a treat. Treating my dog after good behavior, a sit, a stay, a lay down, a come, etc. This is my dogs favorite treat. In class if I keep losing his attention with other treats, I pull this out. It helps get his attention.Even the neighbor dog went bonkers for it when I had some in my pocket.
Comment on this review
By mandy
from ohio
I feed a raw diet, this is a good treat for my pugs, it is not over possessed so i feel good giving it to them, and it must taste really good, by the smell i would not think so, but i do not think like a pug, they sing for it :) so i will take their word for it.
This is the treat supreme.
By Spike
from Juneau, Ak
I like it that the bites are different sizes:larger for my bassett hound and smaller for my cat and equally good for both.

The rattle of the bag does it for my two
By Ms Pea
from Roseville, California
This is the best, healthiest treat I have found for my two Maltese. They come running at the sound of the bag. I only feed Raw and these treats are so healthy for your dog. Mine love them as treats, but some nights they get picky about their dinner. I just put 4 or 5 of these in the food, and they clean their dish. I sure wouldn't want to be without having them on hand.
My Cat Likes This
By Beth K.
from DeLand, FL
I feed my cat a wet diet, and I feel that, like humans who need pressure on bones & teeth to keep them strong, she needs something to crunch (and she LOVES crunchy stuff.) This is extremely nutritious. I cut each nibblet into about 4 pieces so she doesn't swallow it whole. She really loves them, and they are the most nutritious treat I've been able to find.
a crunchy treat
By schip's mom
from Winthrop, MA
Although the smell of this is not pleasant (to me),my dog comes running whenever I open the bag and waits to get his treat! He actually seems to savor the taste and he enjoys the crunchy texture.
All the dogs go nuts
By K9agility
from AZ
I use these for treats and as food. Nutritious. Watch out, don't leave your treat bag where the dogs can get it!
Delicious & Healthy Non-Stinky Treat!
By Beagle Lady
from Toledo, OH
I like these tripe nibblets because I feel I can give my three beagles great nutrition without the horrific smell of tripe. I often drop them into their homemade meals for an extra boost of nutrition since tripe is rich in nutrients for dogs. Highly recommended.
A big hit!
By LAP
from Dallas
The dogs love this stuff and it is good for them too. It is a nice convenient size and easy for them to munch on.
Great Food Additive!
By Rose Marie
from Rock Springs, WY
I grind these into a powder to add to my dogs food. I have one little dog who is a fussy eater especially when I introduce something new. I add a teaspoon of the ground dehydrated tripe to his raw wet food and he will eat anything. I can add it knowing that it is giving my dogs the extra nutrients provided by green tripe without dealing with the messy smelliness of raw green tripe.

In my interpretation of The War of the Worlds, the Martians attack hapless planet Earth not because they need water or are merely imperialistic, but in retaliation for us having sent El Brendel to their planet.Armed with the knowledge of the shtick El Brendel will force upon both his Martian and human viewers, when the 1930 science fiction musical comedy Just Imagine asks us to "just imagine," it seems more of a chilling warning than a hopeful dream. Once you have experienced the comedic stylings of this one time vaudeville sensation, you will have no choice but to stare directly into the muzzle of that Martian heat ray, shrug, and admit that we're really getting what we deserve. In fact, we're probably getting off easy. Continue reading…

My Year With The Fantastic Four
Days after we rang in the New Year, I finished a year spent reading all of the Fantastic Four comics, from Stan Lee and Jack Kirby's earth-shattering first issue in 1961, which explained how four family members and friends were transformed by cosmic rays into super-powered adventurers, through the latest issues in 2015 by James Robinson and Leonard Kirk, in which those same four people are facing yet another trial that threatens their very existence. My reading included most of the related mini-series and secondary series, plus crossovers and event books (even though I have yet to read the entire run of Marvel Two-in-One, the long-running team-up book starring the idol o' millions, the ever-lovin' Thing).
As soon as I finished the epic run by writer Jonathan Hickman and various artists—the last run that I had not read in its entirety when it came out, much to my detriment—my first thought was, like a kid on a roller coaster, "I want to do it again!" I find myself with a profound love for these characters, even though I didn't read them as a kid, coming to them only as an adult (and fairly recently at that). What is it about Reed Richards, the self-proclaimed Mr. Fantastic, whose body became as flexible as his scientific genius, while in the area of romance he remained as stiff as a board? Or Sue Storm Richards, the Invisible Woman (and Reed's long-suffering partner), who transformed over the years from the perpetual hostage into the powerhouse of the team? What draws me to Johnny Storm, the Human Torch, who is the group's Peter Pan while at the same time possessing awesome destructive power that he constantly struggles to keep under control? Or Ben Grimm, the Thing, whose focus on his rocky exterior blinds him to his inherent goodness and virtue, which his beloved (and literally blind) Alicia Masters can perceive all too well?

Transformers: The Romance of the Machine
Hasbro's toy brand Transformers turned thirty last year. Children around the world have been hearing the Transformers' story for decades, passed on by cartoons, comics, movies, and toys. It's always the same, more or less. An alien race of transforming robots is at war, divided into two factions:
the villainous Decepticons, led by Megatron, and the heroic Autobots under Optimus Prime. Their battle takes them across the stars to Earth, where they use their abilities to disguise themselves as everyday vehicles.
Things are a little different these days, at least in some corners of the galaxy. In 2012, publisher IDW revamped its Transformers comics. Senior editor John Barber and his team replaced the central conceit of a never-ending interplanetary war with an uneasy peace between Autobots and Decepticons. IDW's offering is diverse, sophisticated, and provocative. It has ranged from the political drama Robots in Disguise to Tom Scioli's psychedelic Transformers vs G.I. Joe and the offbeat space opera More
Than Meets The Eye. Continue reading…

Anything Can Happen In Riverdale
I never expected to be reading Archie comics. Archie Andrews' irresistible appeal to ladies mystified me and I came late to an appreciation for soap operas and straight melodrama. Then there was residual stuff around romance, a punk rock hostility towards the wholesome squares, a dash of internalized sexism mixed with gender dysphoria and a general preference for anything with monsters or things that one could just not find very easily in the real world. I like my escapism pretty fantastic and unrealistic. I did use bits of Betty & Veronica Double Digest in the zine I organized for my college women's center. But somehow I always end up reading and watching things I never expect to. I got curious about Archie. With Archie: The Married Life and the release of a standalone book for Archie's out gay character, Kevin Keller, something was clearly up at Archie comics. Then Chris Sims recommended Archie: The Married Life at Comics Alliance and one of my favorite comics writers, Marc Andreyko, recommended it on Fresh Ink with Blair Butler saying, "I love that Archie is probably the most progressive mainstream publisher right now."
And that made me decide I needed to read it. Continue reading…

The Projection Booth tells you of days of high adventure in an epic seven hour podcast on Conan The Barbarian (1982).
Actor, director, writer and artist Leonard Nimoy has died. Nimoy was most famous for playing Spock in Star Trek, but he also appeared in Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978), In Search Of…, Ancient Mysteries, Columbo, Fringe, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Faerie Tale Theatre, Mission: Impossible, Dragnet and Bonanza. Nimoy directed Three Men And A Baby (1987), two Star Trek films and an episode of Night Gallery ("Death on a Barge") among others. The New York Times and The Guardian have obituaries. Here are some tweets from William Shatner's online memorial for Nimoy. George Takei remembers Nimoy. Zachary Quinto remembers Nimoy. EW also has other remembrances, including one from President Obama. Code Switch's Steve Haruch discusses Spock's importance as a biracial character. Nimoy talks about his work at the Archive of American Television. You can see some of Nimoy's photography here. And a reminder that Nimoy had an Etsy shop.
At Graveyard Shift Sisters, Ashlee Blackwell considers Jonathan Demme's Beloved as a horror film as part of their Black History & Women In Horror Month series. "Beloved takes us on one journey of the Black American experience of slavery through the body of a Black female protagonist."
Watch Nigerian writer and director Nosa Igbinedion's Oya: The Coming Of The Orishas here.
At Bitch Media, Sara Century wonders why Michonne isn't in charge and considers which medium is better for the ladies of The Walking Dead: comics or tv. "As I was thinking about the numerous questionable writing choices made with these could-be-so-great female characters, I got to wondering, which medium is better for the ladies of The Walking Dead: the TV show or the comic? In other words, which one is less sexist?
I wrote up a short list of the main female characters that appear both on the show and in the comic to decipher the differences in how these women are written. These descriptions contain spoilers through season five of the TV show, because it's impossible to write about The Walking Dead without talking about how people die all the time."
Vixen Varsity shares Olufemi Lee-Johnson's tribute to Milestone Media and Dwayne McDuffie. "For the first time in my life, I was around comic writers of color telling stories that mirror or surpassed the storylines of America's favorite heroes. Icon dealt with being the ultimate immigrant and not understanding current black culture. Rocket (Raquel Irvin) was his guide, but also aspired to be more than just a woman in the projects. Static (Virgil Hawkins) was just a normal teenager dealing with fitting into school and then was put into this extraordinary circumstance of being a hero. Hardware (Curtis Metcalf) wanted respect from his mentor, but later learned about the bigger picture when it came to being a hero and the characters from Blood Syndicate…they were just trying to make it day by day and maintain their respect as a gang."

Ask D'Mine: Is the (Diabetes Med) World Actually Flat…?
Happy Saturday, and welcome back to our weekly advice column, Ask D'Mine, hosted by veteran type 1, diabetes author and educator Wil Dubois. This week, Wil examines a recent mainstream media news story that told us people with diabetes (PWDs) need to be taking a certain medication just because we have diabetes, and there's no questioning that medical wisdom.
Hmmm… well, it probably won't surprise you that Wil sees things differently. Read on!

James P. Stevenson, MD
Ultima Vez Modificado: 1 de noviembre del 2001
Dear OncoLink:
Through the electronic media I became aware of clinical trials
being conducted on a promising cancer drug called combretastatin. I would like to volunteer for your clinical testing program. I am currently being treated on a one day a week basis for colon cancer via chemotherapy.
James P. Stevenson, MD, Assistant Professor of Medicine at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
Thank you for your email and interest in Combretastatin. We recently reported the results of our phase I trial with Combretastatin, and were one of three sites that performed Combretastatin phase I trials (the others were in Cleveland and the UK).
Unfortunately, these trials are presently closed to accrual. The company that developed the drug, Oxigene of Boston, is planning for further studies in the near future. The phase I studies established a dose for use in larger studies, and while there were some hints of activity in a few of the patients treated, it is too early to say that this drug will be a cancer treatment in the future. I would direct you to Oxigene's website for further news about the drug, as further trials are expected to open in the coming months.
Other trials of investigational drugs are available here at Penn and may be options for you; please call 215-662-8947 for further information or to arrange a consultation with Dr. Stevenson or Dr. O'Dwyer. The website for the National Cancer Institute (www.cancer.gov/clinical_trials/) provides information about cancer clinical trials that open worldwide - this may be of help to you.
Jul 9, 2010 - Cancer patient satisfaction scores are higher when physicians disclose their cancer diagnoses in person, in a personal setting, and spend a substantial amount of time discussing the diagnosis and treatment options, according to research published online July 6 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.

last night I took some night sky shots, and I've noticed that with long exposure times [15s;30s] the time it took to store the images in the camera memory card (jpeg) took roughly as long?
Whilst the file size is fairly small at 1 to 3MB / file.
Any idea why this is?
iso were between 200 and 800.
EDIT: thank you for pointing out the Long Exposure Noise Reduction functionality, this indeed explains the extra time taken after the true exposure.
from Canon:
Noise reduction will be automatically activated when noise is detected in any exposure over one second. Noise reduction is subtractive, so after the initial exposure, a second exposure of identical length is made with the shutter closed. Noise from the second exposure is subtracted from the first image leaving a pristine, noise-free image. The only downside is the exposure takes twice as long.

When Torah Teaches Life and Life Teaches Torah (REVIEW)
JNS.org – Rabbi Gordon Tucker spent the first 20 years of his career teaching at the Conservative movement's Jewish Theological Seminary (JTS) and the next 20 years as the rabbi of Temple Israel Center in White Plains, N.Y. I confess that when I heard about the order of those events, I thought that Tucker's move from academia to the pulpit was strange.

Even if you've purchased a dishwasher as recently as five or 10 years ago, you may still be surprised at how cleaning performance has improved, energy and water efficiency has increased and exceedingly quiet operation has become a given.
Dishes that previously required significant pre-rinsing can now be dropped right into the dishwasher, even if they have gooey or baked-on food. Sensors, once available only at the very high end, are now prevalent throughout the middle and even lower price range, automatically adjusting the cycle to deliver just the right cleaning power with no water or electricity waste. And better design with improved insulation means you may be near your dishwasher -- and not even know it's on!
Still, all this innovation comes with some challenges, as models are launched and garner a significant body of expert and user reviews, only to be discontinued and replaced with even newer lines. In addition, some machines have recently been added to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) list of recalls. So if you're in the market for a dishwasher, it's essential to be aware of the latest information.
There are two basic types of dishwashers -- built-in and portable. Built-ins are installed into the kitchen, just like other major appliances such as ovens or refrigerators. Most built-ins have a single interior space, although some higher-end models have multiple drawers. These may be desirable from a convenience standpoint, because the drawers can be loaded and operated independently of one another.
Built-in dishwashers run from about $300 to as much as $2,000. Interestingly, even moderately priced models can be as quiet and energy efficient as pricey ones, according to decibel levels, user reviews and Energy Star ratings. (Energy Star is a program of the Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy; according to the group, models that qualify for Energy Star ratings are generally 10 percent more energy efficient and 20 percent more water efficient than nonqualified models.)
Additionally, higher prices can buy you more wash cycles; more adjustability of tines, racks and flatware containers; and a more pleasing appearance, with hidden controls and a stainless-steel front. It's a good idea to make sure you need these extras before paying for them.
Portable dishwashers are mainly used in apartments or small homes, where space limitations or rental agreements make permanent installation impossible. These models can be on casters, so they can roll away for storage, or they may be designed to sit on a countertop. Generally smaller than built-ins, portables attach manually to a faucet for their water supply. Once known as annoyingly noisy energy hogs, today's portables can be as energy efficient and quiet as their built-in counterparts.
Portables tend to run between $350 and $650, with higher prices corresponding largely to more interior space. Generally, portables manufactured by major appliance manufacturers will cost more than those made by smaller companies.
When you are comparing prices of either built-ins or portables, keep in mind that an energy-efficient model can save you money on your electric and water bills, so it may pay to spend a bit more upfront. In addition, retailers sometimes run rebate programs for customers buying multiple appliances from a particular brand at the same time. Some local utilities also run rebates if you purchase an Energy Star-rated model.
Dishwashers have been subject to Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) product recalls as recently as August 2012, when several GE models were voluntarily recalled because they were considered to pose a fire hazard. Earlier recalls, dating back to 2007, have been posted for other GE models, as well as models by Maytag and Asko. This recall activity reinforces the importance of filling out a registration card when you buy an appliance, so you will be notified in the event of a recall that involves your purchase.
To determine our list of top models, we analyzed expert and owner reviews of dishwashers, placing particular attention on four key factors: performance (which includes both cleaning and energy efficiency), ease of use, noise and cost of ownership. We also considered dishwasher prices and the relative value offered by different models. Our research includes professional test results and consumer surveys, as well as reports from standard-setting agencies. We also studied user comments on retail and consumer-opinion websites, which describe real-world experiences and durability feedback that can be missing from professional reviews.

A study released by the Rasmussen Reports polling firm on Good Friday found that 64% of Americans believe that Jesus Christ rose from the dead.
While Americans who believe in the resurrection remain in the majority, that number is down significantly when compared to a Rasmussen Poll that asked the same question, released a year ago.
On April 7th, 2012 Rasmussen released a poll finding that 77% of Americans believed the resurrection of Christ to be historical fact.
The difference between the two polls shows a 13 percentage point drop in the number of Americans who believe that Christ rose from the dead, since last Easter.
Additionally, this year's poll found that 19% of Americans reject the central tenant of the Christian faith and do not believe that Christ was resurrected. That's compared to only 7% who said they didn't believe that Christ rose from the dead a year ago. A staggering 12 percentage point jump.
