Second District Representative Joe Courtney famously voted against the bank bailout bill, defying his party leadership. But he fell into line on another massive spending bill – the economic stimulus package.
This is a measure which the business community embraced and endorsed when we voted on it back in January, because they recognized that in this recession, the private investment and the private spending in our economy had really almost collapsed.
Courtney spent a morning in Norwich recently, speaking to Chamber of Commerce members, and attempting to convince them that on the evidence of the last few months, he was right to back the bill. Many in his audience were small business owners who've been at the sharp end of this recession. Realtor Christy Lawrence Hanness.
I had my own office for about 13 or 14 years. Unfortunately I was forced to close it in November. I was losing money. My husband and my accountant had an intervention, they told me I was in denial and I had to close.
She's now employed as a broker for a large realty firm, William Pitt Sothebys in Essex. She says she supports the stimulus, and she's seen positive effects from that part of the measure aimed at boosting the housing market.
We're seeing a lot more first time homebuyers. People are grabbing that eight thousand dollar tax credit, so that is working.
It is a historic piece of legislation and these are historic times in which we live.
Another fan of the stimulus package is Republican Governor Jodi Rell.
The stimulus, regardless of which side of the aisle you're on, which party you happen to be affiliated with, has been good news for the states around our country.
Rell was speaking at the recent ground breaking for Connecticut's very first transportation project funded with stimulus dollars, the repair of a bridge on Rt 5 in Enfield. Connecticut has been promised 400 million dollars in spending on 33 road transport projects, but it took until late June for shovels to hit dirt, while all the time the state has been losing construction jobs. Connecticut will also see a big chunk of the cash promised to Amtrak – the single biggest rail repair project in the nation is slated to happen here – the 100 million dollar repair of the Niantic River bridge. But that project and other planned for the state are currently being reviewed by the state Department of Environmental Protection, and there's no firm start date. For some though, the objection to the stimulus goes far beyond questions of efficiency.
We're down 40 percent this year – how's that stimulus working?
Gary McKeon is the co-owner of Joshua's Limousine Service in Ledyard - he too has been listening to Joe Courtney's breakfast time speech, but he's not impressed.
It's a joke. It's an opportunity for the government to take more and more control over what we do. The government really needs to stay out of what we do, how we do it and why we do it. They have absolutely no business sense. The only thing they're doing is laying debt upon debt upon debt on my kids and my grandkids, and I apologize to my grandkids every single morning when I see 'em.
While its boosters may concede that some of the stimulus cash has been slow to arrive, they're less likely to reach any philosophical agreement with those who argue it's simply unaffordable.

Pizza crust was thin and crispy. Good service and they were specific about Its preparation.
GF pizza was great if you enjoy a plate of sawdust. Definitely would not order their GF pizza again.
There are gluten free crusts available & some menu items are clearly marked GF. Staff is helpful. Cross-contamination is possible.
827 Brandon Town Center Mall, Brandon, FL 33511
They have changed their menu to include a gluten free menu with certified GIG pizza. They have 4 certified g/f pizzas and various apps and salads.
53 Third Street, San Francisco, CA 94103
The manager courteously explained the process: the cooks will wash their hands, handle with gloves, and rice flour is used on all (including non GF) cooking pans to stick them. Food was good; with that said, I won't know whether I've reacted for a few hours. UPDATE: I had a clear and significant reaction a couple hours later.
6227 South State Street, Murray, UT 84107
The pizza is delicious! The staff is kind and knowledgable about what you can eat.
1493 St. Louis Galleria, Richmond Heights, MO 63117
Some of the best gluten free pizza crust I've ever had!
7900 Shelbyville Road, Louisville, KY 40222
GF friendly. Staff very knowledgeable. Food was delicious.
601 N. San Fernando Blvd., Burbank, CA 91502
One certified option if you're also vegetarian.
100 CambridgeSide Place, Sp. W102, Cambridge, MA 02141
Super tasty pizza crust. Felt very safe due to their dedicated gf kitchen space. 4 gf certified pizza options. The Crispin cider is also delicious.
3401 Esperanza Crossing #E1, Austin, TX 78758
Only 4 GF pizzas to choose from but, best pizza as far as going out to eat. There are salad options also.
McCarran International Airport, 5757 Wayne Newton Boulevard, Las Vegas, NV 89111
There should be an options for 0 stars. No GF options whatsoever.
609 Kailua Road, Kailua, HI 96734
My daughter loved the pizza and did not get sick.
4712 River City Drive, Jacksonville, FL 32246
Not great. I was disappointed in the gluten free pizza crust.
400 Commons Way, Bridgewater, NJ 08807
There are 4 pizzas that are certified gluten free on the menu. There are no other items that are certified gluten free, but some items on the menu are "made without gluten ingredients." I can only vouch for the pizza. I did not get sick from the pizza. The pizza was good fresh from the oven. Good option if you want to eat pizza out, but overall, not super impressed.
4712 River City Drive, Jacksonville, FL 32246
They actually have some great salads to choose from there.
2000 E. Rio Salado Parkway, Tempe, AZ 85281
Very friendly. Never have gotten sick here. Love the pizza.
300 Miracle Mile, Coral Gables , FL 33134
pizza is always undercooked. make sure to ask them to make it crispy. this is not my favorite gf pizza by any means but when you're desperate craving pizza it will do
2610 Sawgrass Mills Circle, Sunrise, FL 33323
Service was excellent but my gluten free pizza was definitely not gluten free. I have never been so sick from gluten since being celiac and am disappointed that a certified place for Celiac's could get it so wrong. Such a shame as the pizza was delicious but they had not taken enough care with cross contamination to ensure it actually was gluten free.
350 Trolley Line Blvd, Mashantucket, CT 06338
Not a huge selection but seemed knowledgeable. Pizza was very good too!
470 Mall Boulevard, King of Prussia, PA 19406
Great place to eat gluten free! Our server was very attuned to our requests, and the gluten free pizza was brought out special by the manager ... certified gluten free! I would definitely recommend CPK to anyone with gluten sensitivities. Be well!
350 Trolley Line Blvd, Mashantucket, CT 06338
Only around 10 options, but they're knowledgeable and have a detailed allergy chart
3301 E. Main Street, #1150, Ventura, CA 93003
The gluten free pizza tasted like cardboard. Was not impressed
100 CambridgeSide Place, Sp. W102, Cambridge, MA 02141
Great pizza for celiac. Wish they made kid sized gluten free options. I have to order my 2 year old a full sized pizza everytime, and the gluten free dough doesn't re-heat well.
300 Miracle Mile, Coral Gables , FL 33134
They claim to be gluten sensitive / CD friendly. I just had a bbq chicken GLUTEN FREE pizza there and my brain is fog along with my bloated tummy and swollen feet and hands .
6121 W. Park Blvd., Plano, TX 75093
GF crust was rubbery. My non GF husband tried a bite and thought it was awful. Palio's makes a much more tasty GF crust that has a better texture.
73080 El Paseo #8, Palm Desert, CA 92260
I was so excited to have a gf margarita pizza! The dough/crust was terrible and inedible- seriously. Awful experience. Had our order retaken twice! Took one hour to get our food and I was the only one who ordered anything gf. Also everyone's order was made wrong. I will never go to any CPK again. (System will not allow me to leave 0 stars so I had to leave one)
250 Granite Street, Braintree, MA 02184
They burnt my first pizza and when try brought out a new one it was cold. Pizza crust is gridy
3401 Esperanza Crossing #E1, Austin, TX 78758
Really good and very well trained now I have never had a problem eating here and I've been back multiple times they say now that they have a separate part of the kitchen dedicated to just gluten free food preparation and cooking
One Airport Drive, Oakland, CA 94621
This isn't a full-size CPK, and doesn't have gluten-free pizzas.
20502 North Rand Road, Deer Park, IL 60010
The crust is decent. They only have a few truly gf pizzas, but the bbq chicken pizza was good.
1400 Willowbrook Mall, Wayne, NJ 07470
Several good gluten free pizzas along with some salad options. Haven't tried the salads yet but BBQ chicken pizza was great!
255 E. Basse Road, San Antonio, TX 78209
They did a great job serving me which was great because I was with a big group of friends for homecoming. I'm glad I finally found a place that serves gluten free BBQ chicken pizza! Awesome pizza!
2284 Kalakaua Avenue, Honolulu, HI 96815
Hit and miss crust. Sometimes it's over cooked and too crisp. Sometimes the crust is too chewey. Sometimes it's just right. They can't make substitutions on the GF pizza without risking cross contamination. I suspect the pizzas are made elsewhere and frozen.
2223 N. Westshore Blvd., #189, Tampa, FL 33607
Extremely knowledgable staff and great food. The only thing that could be improved is that it would be great if there were more vegetarian options than the Margherita pizza, as items can be removed from the pizzas but not added, in order to adhere to the gluten free guidelines. It's great to be able to eat out without worries.
17350 Hall Road, Clinton Township, MI 48038
Domino's gluten free is better. Not Kidding.
2000 Route 38, Cherry Hill, NJ
Love this place for gf pizza or a salad. Super yummy. Celiac friendly.
551 Oak Brook Center, Oak Brook, IL 60523
they always go the extra mile to make sure I stay healthy
7007 Friars Road, Suite 901, San Diego, CA 92108
I went here hoping for a decent gluten free meal on the road but was disappointed. They only have 5 pizzas that are 'certified' gluten free. I ate the bbq chicken and regretted it later when I got sick. I wouldn't eat here, don't think they really know how to prepare food safely.
7007 Friars Road, Suite 901, San Diego, CA 92108
Not happy with the Fashion valley location. Came in early and explained that I was not gf I am a celiac asked how they handled that they said they had a GF menu that was certified but did not specify that it was only the pizza (I found out this after I received my meal). I spoke with the chef and manager as I ordered they assured me no cross contamination. When I got my meal all there was on the plate was chicken, lettuce and avocado. I asked once again about the chicken and if I could get the asparagus. When talking with the same chef again she then said the only thing certified GF and prepared in the GF area was the chicken and the rest of the salad was prepared in other parts of the kitchen and could be contaminated. I returned the salad and decided not to eat due to their lack of understanding.
330 S. Hope St., Los Angeles, CA 90071
Amazing gluten and dairy free pizza! Great customer service and the pizza is absolutely delicious!
1051 W. State Highway 114, Grapevine, TX 76051
Worst gluten free pizza I've have so far. Paid $14.23 for the gluten free pepperoni. The crust tasted like powder in my mouth and they were skimpy on toppings. Had to ask for more pepperonis. And to top it off my stomach was not okay. I'm gluten intolerant so I definitely would say no for those with celiac.
12171 Seal Beach Blvd., Seal Beach, CA 90740
CPK has several GF salad and pizza selections. They are quite good. I especially enjoy the Moroccan Salad. No GF desserts.
10300 West Forest Hill Blvd., #197, Wellington, FL 33414
Always quick and friendly no issues
23181 Village Shops Way, Suite 113, Estero, FL 33928
Best pizza in Naples, and I've tried them all.
1450 Ala Moana Blvd., Honolulu, HI 96814
I've always loved CPK, and I know the GF crust is not exactly like their regular or even thin crust, but I like it. Pizza crust is a personal thing, so I suggest you try it regardless what any review says. The dishes marked as GF are prepared in a separate area (be sure to tell them you want this). Logistically, they have to limit the items in this area, and I understand that. We are a minority. But my favorite pizzas and salads are all on the list, so I am a happy camper. Now they just need a GF dessert, and it'll be perfect.

Opera and Baseball
Cooperstown is home not just to the Hall of Fame, but also to several other "big league" tourist attractions, including the 37-year-old Glimmerglass Festival, which presents opera and musical theatre at the north end of Otsego Lake.
The latest collaboration between Glimmerglass and the Hall of Fame is a short musical program called "Pride and Passion: The African-American Baseball Experience," being presented Thursdays in the Bullpen Theatre here at The Hall – with the final show on Aug. 23 at 2 p.m.
The program consists of seven songs with a baseball theme, sung wonderfully by four of the Festival's African-American singers. Unifying the songs is a script which sketches the outline of African-American baseball history, beginning in 1865 and running right up into the present day.
The Singers include baritone Amos Nomnabo, from Queensland, South Africa; tenor Chase Taylor, from Durham, N.C.; bass baritone Phillip Gay of Beaumont, Texas; and baritones Allan Washington, of Indianapolis, and Thomas Cannon, of New Orleans, who take the same part in alternate weeks. Each is costumed in a baseball uniform with "Hall of Fame" emblazoned across the front. They are ably accompanied on piano by Coach Accompanist Katherine Kozak of Cleveland, Ohio.
The show was developed by Debra Dickinson of Houston, Acting and Movement Instructor for the Young Artists Program at Glimmerglass, and Dennis Robinson, one of the Young Artists Stage Directors and an Assistant Director for "Lost In the Stars," an opera by Kurt Weill and Maxwell Anderson which deals with apartheid in South Africa. The baseball music program deals with our own history of legal and enforced segregation in baseball's Negro Leagues.
As sad as that history can be, the program itself is exuberant and joyful, as these gifted singers take us through seven songs, each preceded by just enough commentary to set the scene. Dickinson and Robinson began early this summer by visiting the Hall's Library, reviewing the hundreds of pieces of sheet music in the collection and selecting those which fit their story musically and/or thematically. After five weeks of practice, the show debuted just after Hall of Fame Weekend.
The first three songs, "Brother Noah Gave Out Checks For Rain, (1907), "Pickaninny Rose," (1924), and "Little Puff of Smoke—Good Night," (1910) represent the reconstruction era, when portrayals of Black culture were often cartoonish and stereotypical. Despite that potential handicap, the music is delivered with style and grace. The last song was one of several written by Guy Harris "Doc" White, a multitalented pitcher for the White Sox and Phillies from 1901-13.
The next two songs deal with the integration era, which began in 1947, with the debut of Jackie Robinson. The group delivers a brilliant version of "Did You See Jackie Robinson Hit that Ball," the 1949 song by Count Basie and Buddy Johnson. The next piece is "Move over Babe, Here Comes Henry," written in 1974 by legendary baseball broadcaster Ernie Harwell. Phillip Gay then goes into an a cappella version of the National Anthem, which brings the fans to their feet and brings goosebumps to them as well – later in the song his compatriots join in.
The 20-minute program concludes with "Heart," by Richard Adler and Jerry Ross, from the 1955 musical "Damn Yankees."
Make sure to join us in the Bullpen Theater next Thursday!
Tim Wiles is the director of research at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum

Lower extremity venography is a test used to see the veins in the leg.
X-rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation like light, but of higher energy, so they can go through the body to form an image on film. Structures that are dense (such as bone) will appear white, air will be black, and other structures will be shades of gray.
Veins are not normally seen in an x-ray, so a special dye (called contrast) is used to highlight them.
Phlebogram - leg; Venography - leg
This test is usually done in a hospital. You will be asked to lie on an x-ray table. A numbing medicine is applied to the area. You may ask for a sedative if you are anxious about the test.
The health care provider places a needle into a vein in the foot of the leg being looked at, so that an intravenous (IV) line can be inserted. The contrast dye flows through this line into the vein. A tourniquet may be placed on your leg so the dye flows into the deeper veins.
X-rays are taken as the dye flows through the leg.
The catheter is then removed, and the puncture site is bandaged.
You will wear hospital clothing during this procedure. You will be asked to sign a consent form for the procedure. Remove all jewelry from the area being imaged.
Tell the health care provider if you are pregnant, if you have allergies to any medication, which medications you are taking (including any herbal preparations), and if you have ever had any allergic reactions to x-ray contrast material or iodine substance.
The x-ray table is hard and cold, so you may want to ask for a blanket or pillow. You will feel a sharp poke when the intravenous catheter is inserted. As the dye is injected, you may experience a burning sensation.
There may be tenderness and bruising at the site of the injection after the test.
This test is used to identify and locate blood clots in the veins of the legs.
Free flow of the blood through the vein is normal.
Abnormal results may be due to a blockage caused by blood clots, tumors, or inflammation.
There is low radiation exposure; however, most experts feel that the risk of most x-rays is smaller than other daily risks. Pregnant women and children are more sensitive to the risks of the x-ray.
Ultrasound is used more often than this test because it has fewer risks and side effects. MRI and CT scans may also be used to look at the veins in the leg.

I'm running this league again. It's a Yahoo Survivor League.
$5 to play.
It's open to anyone and everyone...so if you know anyone who may want to play, please invite them. The more the merrier!
It's simple...
- Just pick one NFL team to win each week. Once you pick a team, you can NOT pick that same team again...so strategy may come into play there.
- Pick wrong twice and you are eliminated.
- Last team standing with the fewest losses, wins the pot. (in the event of a tie, the money is split)
The links to sign up and pay your $5 league fee are on my website: http://curtprice.com/fantasy/fantasyfootball.html
All payments are taken via PayPal and all winnings are handed out via PayPal.
Deadline to signup and have your league fee paid is Wednesday Sept. 5th.
The first year we did this, the final two teams were both eliminated on the same week, so the prize pool was split.
Last year, we had a solo winner.
It's a good time and it only takes a few seconds each week to do. You don't have to juggle rosters or spend hours agonizing over which player to pick up. You just pick one team to win each week.
So who's in? It's only $5.

Dark Mahogany Chase 3-Drawer Dresser
Looks great
It was easy to set up. Its very sturdy and looks great in our mid size bedroom. I just wish that the drawers had wheels to open more smoothly, but there is no problem to open them at all. Drawers are deep enough.
November 5, 2011
Great Purchase
This dresser is beautiful and very durable. I had a relatively easy assemble and nothing was damaged....It was packaged very well. The drawers are good sized. I am very impressed with the quality of wood and how beautiful this dresser is!
October 26, 2011
Solid with great character
Bought this assembled for our toddlers room, it's perfect because he can't get into the drawers and pull stuff out. (this is the problem we had with drawers w/ wheels) Had trouble getting the drawers back in after moving it upstairs, just had to angle it. Can't wait to buy the rest of the set.
April 18, 2011
great piece!
This is dresser a beautiul dark color. The drawer don't slide as easily as the malay pieces, but its certainly not a problem. A little brain teaser to put together, but not bad. And its just so the piece is extra sturdy, and very well built. Also is wider looking then it shows online, which we love. LOTS of space. My husband and I share this for our things.
March 28, 2011
very nice
At first before putting this drawer set together, it seemed a little cheap, but once assembled, it looks beautiful! it is very sturdy and a great piece of furniture. the dark espresso color somewhat scratches easily though..
December 30, 2010
LOVE this dresser
We've had two of these dressers for almost a year and are in love. The drawers are HUGE and easy to slide. We've pushed two together to make one super dresser, which stores more than our old (massively heavy) dresser did. They are nice and sturdy, but still light enough for one person to slide around. We have a small place, but it gives us a big bang for our buck. It took us about 4 hrs to assemble 2 dressers, 2 nightstands and the 6-drawer chest. Couldn't be happier!
August 25, 2010
Love it!
I love this dresser and the matching nightstand! I bought the Chase media unit with the matching etagers about 9 months ago and it was one of the best furniture buys I've made. So when I was looking for a dresser I was happy to find that the Chase collection has bedroom furniture also. I was able to put all pf the pieces together by myself. The dresser took about 2 hours. I would highly recommend this piece!
July 19, 2010
bought a year ago and love it!
I have moved it several times without any problems! It's durable and well made. I get a lot of feedback with friends saying they love it!

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: email@example.com Pat Rollins: Portable bobhouse gets the thumbs up
Tuesday, January 29, 2013
For years I couldn't wait for the ice to freeze on my favorite cove so I could push my bobhouse out and get it set up. Every weekend my buddies and I would head out and set out one tip-up for lake trout and retreat to the warm confines of the shanty to jig for perch, cusk and the occasional laker. Now-a-days, that bobhouse sits behind my house as we've become mobile, opting to fish a variety of locations from a portable bobhouse with my family.
I began by stripping an old pair of my wife's skis and attaching a foot-tall wooden frame on each ski. After that, I built a five-foot long storage box out of plywood that measured 18 inches wide and 18 inches deep.
All I had to do was paint the box and add a good sturdy tow rope and my portable bobhouse was complete. It has plenty of storage for the frame work and tent cover as well as our tip-ups, jigging rods and bait bucket in addition to a propane heater and bottle of gas.
We all stepped inside and took a seat on the storage box and my wife poured some hot chocolate as I baited a jig and sent it down one of the holes. When it hit bottom she flipped the bail closed and brought it about a foot off bottom and before she got a sip of the hot beverage I watched her rod tip begin to bounce. |

Acute kidney failure is the rapid loss your kidneys' ability to remove waste and help balance fluids and electrolytes in your body. In this case, rapid means less than 2 days.
Kidney failure; Renal failure; Renal failure - acute; ARF; Kidney injury - acute
There are many possible causes of kidney damage. They include:
The doctor or nurse will examine you. Many patients with kidney disease have body swelling caused by fluid retention. The doctor may hear a heart murmur, crackles in the lungs, or other abnormal sounds when listening to the heart and lungs with a stethoscope.
The results of laboratory tests may change suddenly (within a few days to 2 weeks). Such tests may include:
A kidney or abdominal ultrasound is the preferred test for diagnosing a blockage in the urinary tract. X-ray, CT scan, or MRI of the abdomen can also tell if there is a blockage.
Blood tests may help reveal the underlying cause of kidney failure. Arterial blood gas and blood chemistries may show metabolic acidosis .
Once the cause is found, the goal of treatment is to help your kidneys work again and prevent fluid and waste from building up in the body while they heal. Usually, you have to stay overnight in the hospital for treatment.
The amount of liquid you eat (such as soup) or drink will be limited to the amount of urine you can produce. You will be told what you may and may not eat to reduce the buildup of toxins that the kidneys would normally remove. Your diet may need to be high in carbohydrates and low in protein , salt, and potassium.
You may need antibiotics to treat or prevent infection. Diuretics ("water pills") may be used to help remove fluid from your body.
Medicines will be given through a vein to help control your blood potassium level.
Dialysis may be needed for some patients, and can make you feel better. It can save your life if your potassium levels are dangerously high. Dialysis will also be used if:
Dialysis will most often be short term. Rarely, the kidney damage is so great that dialysis may be permanently needed.
The stress of having an illness can often be helped by joining a support group where members share common experiences and problems.
See: Kidney disease - support group
Call your health care provider if your urine output slows or stops or you have other symptoms of acute kidney failure.
Treating disorders such as high blood pressure can help prevent acute kidney failure.

about us
The Colombian Coffee Growers' Federation (FNC) was founded in 1927. This non for profit organization represents more than 500 thousand coffee growing families whose average plantation size is 1.6 ha. Thus, our work as a non for profit organization revolves around the coffee growers and their families, ensuring Colombian Coffee is grown in a sustainable manner, strengthening common interests within coffee-growing communities while positioning Colombian Coffee as a high quality product.Working in sustainability also includes research and development, technical assistance, development of quality practices and implementing a purchase guarantee to ensure transparent prices for the grower among others. These and many other programs are part of the FNC's www.SustainabilityThatMatters.org programsAdditionally, in our effort to ensure the growers a higher income for their coffee, we develop communication and promotion efforts to share with different audiences what's behind Colombian Coffee. The Colombian Coffee Hub is part of these initiatives and responds to the need to establish a direct link with coffee professionals (i.e. baristas, roasters, traders, coffee growers, etc) in order to share in depth coffee knowledge acquired by FNC throughout its history, direct from the source.We are confident that the CCH will open spaces for discussion and will foster the creation of new knowledge around coffee and the people that participate in its value chain: from the grower to the barista and ultimately the consumer.If you wish to learn more about the FNC and Colombian Coffee, please visit www.cafedecolombia.com

VOL. XX, No. 10 .�� ^fe BRYN MAWR AND WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1933 Copyright BRYN MAWR COLLEGE NEWS, 1933 PRICE 10 CENTS Noted Critic Explains Beginning of Career Alexander Woollcott Considers Radio Most Rewarding Field - of Journalism NARRATES WAR STORY Mr. Alexander Woollcott, disclos- ing the Confessions of a Dying Newspaper Man last Tuesday night in Goodhart Hall, announced that the topic of his lecture meant noth- ing, although his last job had, it was true, been on the dying World. He had tried having no title for his lec- tures at all, but he found that that did not work, for when he made that experiment on New Rochelle, he ar- rived to find the facade of their high school decorated with a pennant read- ng: "How To Go To the Theatre." M*r. Woollcott suggested that they should go on free tickets*but they did not seem to care for his attempts to enlarge upon the title with which they had presented him, for the next week was "Better Speech Week" in New Rochelle! Mr. Woollcott said that the cur- rent issue of Vanity Fair contains a photograph of himself taken in 1892 in Kansas City, Missouri, on the oc- casion of some Shakespearean tab- . leaux given by his street; he was cos- tumed as Puck. After looking at that^ picture, he fell to wondering where he had gone wrong that he should now be here. The coming to- gether of himself and his Bryn Mawr audience required some sort of an autobiographical explanation. Mr. Woollcott and his friends often pause to wonder how it happened that they should all have come together: in 1907, for instance, Mr. Woollcott was a sophomore at Hamilton College, Harpo Marx was a bellhop at the Seville, and Irving Berlin was a wait- er in Chinatown; it is pure luck that they should all be great friends now. Mr. Woollcott decided to become a newspaper man at the time when his picture as Puck was taken, for across the street lived the lanky and string- ent Roswell Martin Field, a dramatic critic and columnist on the Kansas City Star. Mr. Field took him to see his first show, Sinbad, The Sailor, with Eddie Foy. When they arrived home, Mr. Woollcott announced to his family that he had decided to go to the theatre every day thenceforth; it was pointed out to him that this would run into money, something no Woollcott ever did, and that Mr. Field was able to go because it did not cost him anything. That decided him to become a dramatic critic. He was deflected from his intention only once, in his senior year at college, when he decided to retreat from com- petition and teach. Having been rec- ommended as the principal of a High School at Hudson, New York, he went to tea with the board of directors of- the school. The women were all in favor of choosing him, but one old man took him aside and explained confi- dentially that although corporal pun- ishment was forbidden by law, the school could not be managed by any- one unable to lick everyone in it. At that moment three husky and burly boys wending their way from an in- nocent, if rough, game of baseball walked down the street; the old man said: "There are three of the pu- pils. Do you think you could lick them?" Mr. Woollcott became a news- paper man. He first applied for a job on the Philadelphia Record, but instead of going to the Managing Editor, he went to the wife of the Editor-in- Chief at her home, and asked for a (Continued on Fage Four) Sale of Books All the books in the Book Shop are being sold at extreme- ly low prices.

White (Kath- arine Sergeant, Bryn Mawr, '14) will speak on Magazine Work and Writing in the Com- mon Room in Goodhart Hall on Monday afternoon, Janu- ary 8, at a quarter of fiv^l Mrs. White is one of the edi- tors of The New Yorker. Everyone who is interested is urged to come. Tea will be served at half-past four. Katherine Hepburn Takes Star Role in New Tragedy The Lake, written bjj, Massingham and McDonald, and starring Kath- erine Hepburn, will open in New York December 25 and probably run for some months, so the News offers its readers an amateur playreader's crit- icism of it. At the opening of this play in Washington all the seats were bought out by the Bryn Mawr Club of that city, so we are told; but we doubt that the New York Bryn Mawr Club will be able to pull a like coup as the seats for the open- ing night in New York are quoted as high as two hundred dollars. If you can't pay quite that, but still feel that you would like to know something more about the play, there is a copy of The Lake on the Playwriting reserve in the Library. The criti- cism follows: In The Lake it has oeen the pur- pose of the authors to preesnt an emotion rather than an action, and the entire play has been constructed to the fulfillment of these qualifica- tions. The actual action of the play is important only as it develops the emotion inherent in it. Therefore, in any attempt to. appraise the value of the work one must accept the orig- inal premise of the authors � that life is neither good nor bad, but sim- ply unadjusted and brutal in its treatment of those who are seeking an answer to it. The characters are all examples of frustration and fu- tility in its various phases. Some of the people realize they are living a farce, and some are too stupid to realize it. Herein lies the distinction between the tragic figures involved and their foils. The play concerns a young girl, Stella Surrege, who has been hem- med in all her life by the ostenta- tious "gracious living" of her un- feeling, grasping and stupid mother. Though Stella has a natural apti- tude for many things, such as paint- ing, music, and literature, she has never had an incentive to force her to develop any one of these talents. She realizes that she is completely useless as a member of society, and that under the bonds of her life at home she can never expand�either to fail or to succeed. In love with a married man, Cecil Hervey, who is and has been for years living on his wife's income, she finally decides to make a break, at least from the stere- otyped unattractiveness of her home, by marrying a man whom she does not love, but who loves her and has the obvious advantage of being in the good graces of her socially-minded mother. She becomes engaged to John Clayne in just such a spirit, and then in one beautiful moment alone with him in the woods (of the country estate her mother is mutilating in an attempt to produce a more artificial- ly and financially desirable place than her rival) she sees him as he really is and as he will be as her husband. From that moment she is complete- ly his, but, tormented by the knowl- edge of her hypocrisy in marrying him when she had been in love with another, she is unable to give herself up to him and to the love which has enveloped her whole being. , Fin- ally on her wedding day she tells him of her affair with Cecil Hervey and receives complete understanding from him. For one too short hour they live together in a world different from the one she has always known and then, as they attempt to escape the wedding guests and get away un- (Conttnued on Page Three) Curriculum Committee . Proposes New Policy Comprehensive Exams Urged to Give Broader Knowledge in Major Field READING IS IMPORTANT (Especially Contributed by Dean Manning) A plan for an important change in the curriculum is at present under discussion by the Faculty Curriculum Committee and the various major de- partments. This plan, of which cop- ies have been given to all members of the Undergraduate Curriculum Committee, would introduce an exam- ination on certain general fields of the major subject to be taken by all candidates for the A.B. degree in the final examination period of their senior year. The examination would probably consist of three papers of approximately three hours each to be scheduled in the first week of the ex- amination period. Seniors not pass- ing it would not receive the degree in that year, but would be permitted to attempt the examination again in the fall or later. The plan for the Comprehensive Examination, which might perhaps better be called the final examination in the major subject, has been pre- pared with the object of strengthen- ing and unifying the work of the senior year and, to a lesser degree, the work of the other three years by giving to the major work a more defi- nite final objective. The examina- tions to be successful must test the power of the students to use and ap- ply the information which they have gathered from courses and reading. A wider familiarity with what has been written from different points of view on the subject matter of the major courses might be one essential part of the preparation. The plan makes allowance for a considerable amount of time in the senior year to be devoted to such reading or to other reading on spe- cial topics. A Senior would carry onry three unit courses and she would have, moreover, two full weeks dur- ing the mid-year examination period for intensive reading and study and probably a certain amount of extra time in May for a general review. It is also to be hoped that many stu- dents will find it possible to do a good deal of general reading in the sum- mer before the senior year. Every effort has been made in the plan to minimize such interruptions as would be caused by course exami- nations, but there is no intention of encouraging students to concentrate entirely on their major subject in the senior year. It is the hope of the Curriculum Committee that Seniors would feel well able to carry at least one elective course, whether it be in a subject totally unrelated to the ma- jor or in one in which interest has been aroused through the study of some branch of the major. In the ma- jority of cases students would prob- ably also be carrying work in a close- ly allied subject. It is taken for granted that in those courses which are not tested by the Comprehensive, Seniors would cover the same ground and do ap- proximately the same amount of work as the other students, but special schedules would be arranged in order that the review periods and the writ- ten tests would not conflict with the periods of intensive work for the Comprehensive. \ The junior year would, generally speaking, be the period in which stu- dents would complete Second Year work in the major and would carry essential allied work and one or two elective courses. At the end of the (Continued on Page Three) Comit g in Goodhart The Cosmopolitan Club of Philadelphia presents Dorothy Sands in theatrical impersona- tions, "Our Stage and Stars," in Goodhart Hall, Bryn Mawr College, Wednesday, January 10, at eight-twenty o'clock. Mrs. Hunt's Readings Convey Poetic Spirit Modern Lyrics Emphasized in Choice of Program�Amy Lowell Praised MacLEISH SHOWS VIGOR X Hockey Elections K. Kent, '35, has been elect- ed captain and B. Cary, '36, manager of the 1934 hockey team. Mrs. Hope- Woods Hunt gave at the Deanery on Thursday afternoon a charming reading of modern poetry. Mrs. Hunt has that exceptional fac- ulty of catching perfectly the auth- or's meaning and spirit and of in- terpreting them to her audience by voice and gesture with both restraint and understanding. . The poems read were mainly those of women and Mrs. Hunt set the spirit of the afternoon by first read- ing Amy Lowell's "Sisters." "Amy Lowell," said Mrs. Hunt, "is usually called old-fashioned by the moderns, and the word 'old-fashioned' is often said in a sneering tone, but this should not be so." Sher has merely dropped out of the ranks of young experimenters, but those experiments of hers which are most valuable will uo on in poetic usage. She has blaz- ed a trail and thrown away a great deal of dead wood to clear the path for poets of the present. Mrs. Hunt caught perfectly the eager, yet mat- ter of fact, the darting, clear-sighted spirit of Amy Lowell in her reading of "Sisters." Another poem of Miss Lowell's "Number 3 on the Docket," Mrs. Hunt read, "because it is pure drama, and, being human, we all love the dramatic." Her reading of it brought out this quality to the full and she gave an extraordinarily fine characterization of the farm woman whose tragedy the poem reveals. (Continued on Page Three) Miss Millay Presents Reading of Own Poems Skill in Reading Emphasizes Directness and Sincerity of Her Style N RECITES NEW POEMS Conference to be Held On Students in Politics A national conference on students in Politics is to be held in Washing- ton December 29-31 -to discuss the question of whether it is the duty of students to participate in the social movements of the times. Students from colleges as widely scattered as Canton, Minn., and California Tech are expected to attend and Vassar, Wellesley, and Smith are sending a delegation ranging from twenty-five to fifty members. It is hoped that Bryn Mawr will also be well repre- sented. The conference is being sponsored by such men as Charles A. Beard, John Dewey, William Alan Neilson, and Senator Robert Wagner, and is being organized by such co-operating organizations as International Stu- dent Service, the League of Nations Association, the N. S. F. A., the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. Although program arrangements are not yet definite, it is expected that at the opening session the ques- tion, "How shall students partici- pate in politics?" will be discussed by Daniel Roper, Secretary of Com- merce; George Z. Medalie, promi- nent Republican leader; Norman Thomas, Socialist candidate for Pres- ident, and Robert Minor, of the Com- munist Executive Committee. Round tables will be held on such topics as national self-sufficiency vs. interna- tional co-operation, and the future of democracy under the NRA. Vassar students will present a play entitled The American Plan, and it is hoped that President Roosevelt will consent to address the conference. Expenses will be kept as low as possible. The registration fee will be one dollar or a dollar'and a half at the maximum. Arrangements (Continued on Face Two) It is not often that a Goodhart audience receives a poet with such en- thusiasm as that afforded Edna St Vincent Millay when she gave select- ed readings from her poems on the night of Monday, December 18. For not only did she read well; she read as if she liked to read to us, and she read so that she could be heard. She made, however, no comments in the course of her reading, and it was not until the Deanery session that the stu- dents were able to sound her views on poetry and the modern poets. Avoiding weighty dictums, she re- plied to the inevitable undergraduate query, "What is your definition of poetry?" with the answer she had giv- en to a similar question on a Vas- sar final examination: "Poetry," she said on that occasion, "is something reverently written by great men and blasphemously defined by undergrad- uates in female institutions." Miss Millay is convinced that the test of a poem's goodness is mainly a personal one, to be estimated by the thrill of emotion which reading it provokes in you or me. A poem may be written on any subject, provided that subject moves the writer so strongly that she fairly has to scream on paper. While an essay must treat of a thought, the first consideration for a poem is the expression of beau- ty, the thought being a secondary matter. To hear Miss Millay reaa her own work is to realize twice over how sincerely and how strongly she has been moved on all those subjects, even the most apparently trivial, of which she chooses to write. Constant sincerity of sentiment is often more difficult of achievement than occa- sional grand passion; and it is this sincerity, together with a keen sense for the ever-present beauty in the world around her, that constitutes the matter of the poetry of Miss Millay. The artistic skill in choice of word and simplicity of phrase which has always characterized her work be- comes strikingly apparent under the lingering emphasis with which she reads aloud her verse. After reading two short pieces, "Autumn Chant" and "The Spring and the Fall," from the volume en- titled Harp Weaver, the author went on to the "Ballad of the Harp Weav- (Contlnued on Face Four) Bryn Mawr Club Invites Students to Holiday Tea The News has received the follow- ing letter from Mrs. Helen Riegel Oli- ver (Mrs. Howard T.

We do hope that you will all be able to come. The Board of Gov- ernors welcomes you to.the Club and hopes that you will find our quarters at the Park Lane so comfortable and so central a meeting place that you will want to join the Club and come often. We feel that the Club*is very im- portant as a link between students and alumnae. For us who have grad- uated, it represents the college in New York, making contacts with other Women's College Clubs, participating in various allied enterprises and serv- ing as headquarters for Bryn Mawr activities. But to you, who are still at college, the Club has a great deal to offer.

The College News Volume VII. No. 6. BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1920 Price 10 Cents NEW ENGLAND CHARACTERIZED IN POEMS OF ROBERT FROST ORAL RECORD SHATTERED BY 1921 American Poet-Lecturer Gives Ccmmentat ve Reading "The Poet of New England," Robert Frost, reading from his poems in Taylor Hall last Saturday evening, under the au- spices of the Reeling and Writhing Club, confirmed before the audience his right to his title. From "The Birches," with which the reading opened, to the final encore, Mr. Frost's poems portrayed New England life and interpreted New England characters. Unlike the poems of Siegfried Sassoon and Robert Nichols, who have given readings at Bryn Mawr in the last two years, Robert Frost's, all written before 1916, showed no influence of the war. Contrasting the tenets of modern ima- gists such as Ezra Found and Mi� 1 � will, with his own theories, Mr. Prott said that he sought to express over and al>ove the image, the psychological tone conveyed by the ordinary speaking voice. In this way Mr. Frost believes that clearness of image and style arc achieved. "The lay of most so-calkd imagists is to give poem* that shall convey a dear image without much attention to thought or sentiment. Such a line as 'listener to new yellow roses' docs not bring any true image; it does not give one the pleasure of recognition, which is the basis for all enjoyment in art." The concluding lines of Mr. Frost's poem, "The Gum Gatherer," show his simplicity, power and originality: "I told him this is a pleasant life To set your breast to the bark of trees That all your days arc dim beneath. And reaching up with a little knife To loose the resin and take it down And bring it to market when you please." Of Mr. Frost's dramatic poems, "The Fear" was easily the most gripping and vivid, giving with intensity and insight the horror of something only half seen in the darkness of a lonely road. "There are two kinds of style: the more bookish and the less bookish. Of all my poems," Mr. Frost remarked, "I consider 'The Cow in Apple Time' the most book- ish." "Something inspires the only cow of late To make no more of a wall than open gate, And think no more of wall-builders than fools. Her face is flecked with pomace and she drools A cider syrup. Having tasted fruit, She scorns a pasture withering to the root."

The Brown team started off with a rush, scoring a goal in the first few minutes of play from a long dribble and shot by M Tyler. The ball then passed into the Bryn Mawr territory only to be shot out by Miss Duncan, full-back, to M. Farics at left �ring, who carried it the length of the field, passing to A. N'icoll for the second goal. After a short scrimmage in the circle, the third goal was pushed in by M. Tyler, fol- lowed in quick succession by a clean tally from the edge of the circle by M. Faries and a long dribble and goal by E. Cecil. C. Bicklcy shot the last goal of the half from the middle of the circle after a hot scrimmage. During this half the Phila- delphia defense was rushed off its feet by the clever team work of A N'icoll and M Farics on the left side, while M Krcch at half-back played a good game, covering the right side of the field and passing well to the forward line. Play in Second Half Scrappy The second half opened with a goal for Philadelphia by Miss Morris, right wing, after a speedy dribble the length of the field. Then followed a period of scrapping during which neither side could gain an advantage) ending in a goal by Miss Grant after a long dribble by Miss N'orris. After a sharp scrimmage in the circle, A N'icoll scored the final goal of the game for Bryn Mawr, bringing the total score to 7 tallies as against 2 for Philadelphia. The defense proved to be the strongest point "' ,rie Philadelphia team, while the team work of the forward line was the most spectacular feature of the Bryn Mawr team.

The Sophomores, on the whole, sang better than the Freshmen. Their rendering of "Pallas Athene" rsj well modulated and true, though rather slower than usual. During the first verse one line WU almost a whole note behind the other, but when they met in the center, perfect time was kept ; a complete pause at the end of each line marked the rhythm. Considering the extreme difficulty of the new nog, the Freshmen sang well. \l- though at the outset their singing was marred by a slight raggedncss and a tenor which was off-key, they recovered the time and showed more richness and volume in individual voices than 1923. The Greek words and full harmonies were much more in keeping with the ceremony than "Over the Way." The imprcssnem ss of the ceremony was enhanced by the dimly lit library windows and the shadows of the towers east by the full moon on the cloister walls. In the college singing under Pembroke Arch after the ceremony, 1924 sang their class song for the first time Contpoted by B.

Pyxis Implement
Pyxis Implement, part of Mentor's new Pyxis Custom IC Design Platform, provides a highly productive environment for correct by construction layout entry and editing.
Pyxis Implement combines all of the functionality of Pyxis Layout with a hierarchical SDL (Schematic-driven layout) environment, enabling design engineers to quickly create complex designs without sacrificing layout quality. Schematic-driven layout (SDL) is a design methodology that enables design engineers to create "correct by construction" layouts.
By using the design's connectivity, Pyxis Implement enables automated creation of layout data, while maintaining the relationship between layout and schematic, reducing design cycle time, and assuring layout is free of LVS violations. Any mix of polygons, device generators (either custom, built-in or from a foundry supplied Process Design Kit), and cell data are supported in the layout environment. Pyxis Implement bridges the gap between schedule and performance goals, offering productivity increases as much as 50X over traditional manual layout methods.
Using SDL, design engineers can "pick and place" devices either automatically or graphically. The dynamic connectivity display with cross probing makes navigation between the layout and schematic fast and easy. The placed devices can then be quickly connected using the built in interactive router, or the optional constraint driven Pyxis Custom Router. Netlist driven layout is also supported in the SDL environment.
Seamless Integration
Pyxis Implement interacts seamlessly with other solutions in the Pyxis Custom IC Design Platform to create, develop, simulate, verify, optimize and implement even the most challenging full custom analog and mixed-signal IC designs quickly and accurately—the first time.
As a designer, you enjoy a consistent look and feel in single environment, whether creating schematics, block diagrams, symbols, or HDL representations. Additionally, Mentor's foundry partners provide certified design kits for use with Pyxis Custom IC Design Platform solutions.
Constraint Driven Custom Routing
Pyxis Custom Router, an add-on option for Pyxis Implement, introduces an integrated tool box of advanced custom routing functionality. The tool box includes a global router for congestion mitigation, a detailed signal router with a rich net-by-net and layer-by-layer constraint mechanism, and an optional assisted power and pre-wire router that supports the interweaving of multiple power domains by using mesh, ring, or truck structures or a combination of the different structures. For more information, please view the Pyxis Custom Router datasheet.

Custom IC Design Training
We have training courses available for Custom IC Design products in our training centers around the world, online, or at your site.
"What would have normally taken a week to route was finished in a few minutes and saved one-third of the space in the layout. With the new custom router, they realized that, for the first time ever, they had the potential to be able to iterate more, ensuring their ability to deliver a better design while saving time."

Family Field
They arrived in uniform at Doubleday Field on Friday, holding their dad's hand with one arm and clutching their ball glove with the other.
Fathers and sons, parents and children. And in the case of the Wygant Family, four generations of baseball fans.
The annual Youth Skills Clinic, presented by the Hall of Fame and the Major League Baseball Players Alumni Association, was once again connecting generations through the National Pastime.
"My dad and I were here 50 years ago for the Hall of Fame game, and then my son and I were here 23 years ago," said Gary Wygant, who traveled from Atlanta – where he is the director of recycling development for Coca-Coca Recycling – for Hall of Fame Classic Weekend. "Now, my grandson Riley is here at the Skills Clinic. We have four generations in this ballpark."
The Youth Skills Clinic launched the Classic Weekend festivities on Friday as hundreds of children received hands-on baseball lessons from former major leaguers like John Doherty, Dmitri Young and Jesse Barfield – all of whom will play in Saturday's Hall of Fame Classic. Riley, a White Sox fan like his father Rob Wygant, hustled from station to station in the afternoon sun, soaking in the rays and the words of wisdom from the former players.
Meanwhile, Riley's great-grandfather – Bob Wygant – looked down at Doubleday Field from the right field stands and remembered a rainy day in 1962.
"I haven't been back since then, but I remember like it was yesterday," said Bob Wygant, who grew up in nearby Albany, N.Y., and attended the 1962 Hall of Fame Game with his son Gary. "It rained during the game (the contest between the New York Yankees and Milwaukee Braves was eventually canceled), and Gary and I tried to stay dry in a culvert but ended up with water up to our knees.
"I was a teacher during my working days, and to see all these kids out there – along with my grandson, as part of four generations of our family – is very special."
The connection for families continues today in Cooperstown, with the Hall of Fame Classic at Doubleday Field. It's a connection that baseball continues to foster – throughout the generations.
Craig Muder is the director of communications at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum
