ISAF selects kiteboarding for Rio 2016
The International Sailing Federation (ISAF) has confirmed the final event and equipment selections for the Rio 2016 Olympic Sailing Competition.
The ISAF Council voted that Kiteboarding will replace windsurfing for the men's and women's board events and confirmed the equipment that will be used for the Women's Skiff and Mixed Multihull Events.
The Mackay FX, referred to as the 49er FX, was selected yesterday as the two person women's skiff and today the Nacra 17 joins the Olympic equipment family after being selected for the two person mixed multihull event.
The 49er FX received the majority of votes from the ISAF Council in the first round after the six evaluation trial entries were narrowed down to just three; the 29erXX, the RS900 and the 49er FX.
There was an equally animated debate on the final morning of the Council meeting at this year's ISAF Mid-Year Meeting to decide the equipment to be selected for the mixed multihull event. After discussing the recommendations from the Evaluation Panel, the Equipment Committee and the Events Committee, Council voted between the Nacra 17 and the Viper with the Nacra 17 securing the majority.
The final discussion on the events and equipment for the 2016 Olympic Sailing Competition was about the men's and women's board events with Council voting in favour or kiteboarding.
In November 2011 an evaluation group was appointed to examine kiteboarding formats with the board events for Rio 2016 defined as 'windsurfing and/or kiteboarding'. The Evaluation Group recommended that kiteboarding be included in the ISAF Event family including the ISAF Sailing World Cup and the ISAF Sailing World Championships but Council went one step further and selected Kiteboarding for the Rio 2016 Olympic Sailing Competition as well.
The ISAF Windsurfing and Kiteboarding Committee will consider and make further recommendations to Council on the implementation of the inclusion of kiteboarding at their meeting in November 2012 at the ISAF Annual Conference.
ISAF President Göran Petersson said, "These announcements mark a new era for sailing and we welcome the new classes into the ISAF family. The equipment selections have fulfilled the criteria set out by the Evaluation Panel and we look forward to seeing the boats not only at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, but the ISAF Sailing World Cup and ISAF Sailing World Championships.
"Kiteboarding has proven to us that it is ready to be included into the list of prestigious ISAF Events and it is a fantastic addition to the sailing programme for the 2016 Olympic Games."
The events to be contested at the 2016 Olympic Games are confirmed as:
Men's Kiteboarding
Women's Kiteboarding
Men's One Person Dinghy - Laser
Women's One Person Dinghy - Laser Radial
Men's One Person Dinghy (heavy) - Finn
Men's Two Person Dinghy - 470
Women's Two Person Dinghy - 470
Men's Skiff - 49er
Women's skiff - 49er FX
Mixed Two Person Multihull - Nacra 17
These ten events will be featured in the 2012-2013 ISAF Sailing World Cup which kicks off in Melbourne in December and will come together in Santander, Spain in 2014 for the ISAF Sailing World Championships.
ISAF Council also approved applications from Kosovo (Group C) and Vietnam (Group K) for full member status.

Olympic Kite Evaluation Trials - Santander, March 2012
North team riders – Blazej Ozog, Steph Bridge, Narayna & Alice were amongst the 15 riders from around the world chosen to represent their country & the rest of the world of kiteboarders for the format evaluation carried out by ISAF. 5 days of testing different course formats including Slalom, Boarder Cross, Course racing, short track, Enduro & more. The trials were run from the High Performance sailing Centre in Santander (CEAR) & took place alongside other test trials to decide the womans skiff for 2016 & also the Mixed gender mulithull. The team had a huge chance to showcase the sport to its best – given any opportunity to race with the fastest boats, showing the huge strengths : Colour, high speeds, crashes, close cut moves, close to beach media exposure, tactics,beach life, ease of transport of equipment & affordability.
Within the next couple of weeks the evaluation report will be a positive one – many have just been blown away by the possibilities. In conclusion it was decided that a box style (quatro) course was most suited for big fleets & added the exciting start line -up then coming altogether for the reaches round the course. It was concluded that the upwind does make it more difficult for spectators to follow however the leg length's would be short to keep the high visual impact.
The 'short track'style course in line with the Americas' cup Catamarans would be introduced during the knock out & would end in a 4 person final for the gold medal. This course involves a reach start, upwind & downwind gate with a further reach finish. Again – really easy to follow, can be run very close to the beach & involves skill & tactics also.
These 2 courses will be short 10-12 mins & the size of the course will depend on the wind strength & size of the fleet. They will be introduced now going into the season. Perhaps some of the highlights of the Olympic evaluation included blasting across the bay in 6 knots of wind but travelling at 4 x the speed, Meeting the president of ISAF, introducing the committee members to our sport from a very basic level, out performing all other craft on the water with speed, upwind ability & VMG.
The next big decision will be in May if ISAF decide to include kitesurfing within the ISAF World Cup events. We hope that they will postpone the decision until November for whether kiteboarding and/Or windsurfing can make it into 2016 Rio Olympics. This will allow more time to prove our sport further to the national member bodies around the world.

Dear Beautiful Beyond3D forum user,
We're migrating to new forum software and doing some server and network maintenance at the same time, which means a period of extended downtime. The forums will be switched off for up to 24 hours, from 9am GMT on Saturday until 9am GMT on Sunday. It should come back way before then, but I'm giving myself some wiggle room in case things break, because of the sheer number of changes being made and maintenance work being done. I'll put status updates here if things go wrong, or you can pop by Beyond3D IRC on Freenode (#beyond3d) if you want to ask me in real-time. Back soon! Rys |

Well I can post the giant thing later. It is basically 'Fallout,' for anyone already familiar with the series. Takes place on the east coast. Thought about it for a while and decided on Cape-Cod Massachusetts as a good area, yet naturally small so we can't divulge too far from the main topic even if we tried. Keep in mind if we head too far west we would end up in Boston, which would be the staging ground for Fallout 4, so I'll try to keep us away from it so that contradicting information doesn't arise.BG07 wrote:Also, if you feel like you have a good RP idea and are confident enough to GM it, you'd need to submit it into this thread for approval. Once you get enough votes from other RPers on the forum you can then make your own OOC and IC threads.
I'll do that. I might need to double post however, I don't feel like 'fleshing it out' in the same post I use to talk about the rules of the forum itself. Speaking of;BG07 wrote:I do suggest that you should flesh out your RP idea as much as possible so that you can sell it to the other RPers and get it voted in.
Yeah I found the RP rules section and caught myself up to speed. Need to get approval by at least 4 people. Sounds easy enough- I can get that much on concept alone I believe. Need to make sure that any inspirations are properly credited, and anything I talk about if it has already been done before to provide adequate links. Also got to obey the basic forum rules all together, so no pointless profanity, advertising and stuff like that.BG07 wrote:OH, also I think there are rules around here somewhere... meh...
Well, according to Fallout 'lore,' if you can even call it that: Only America had Vault technology, courtesy of Vault-Tec, a capitalist organization sold to the highest bidder. Several places on Earth weren't that effected by nuclear arms however. Africa I believe was almost completely spared of them. But Africa would make a poor location for 'Fallout' I believe.Timer wrote:I'd be intrested (again if it was done properly) and maybe set somewhere else?
Back in the day Me and Nyvyan tried to start a UK set one, but i think seeing other countries would give you a greater scope for what you can do without clashing with previously established monsters/settings/places.... etc
I'd like to think of this as purely Idea-Based, only asking for specific rules as I go. I will whip up a story sheet and sign-up paper soon, I will try my best to keep it on-rail.Ro Wong wrote:If you wanna discuss the rules or other parts of the RPs Bird, Weirdness is our general discussion thread. We try to keep this reserved for purely idea discussions.
Out of Character, eh? Seems like when you talk out of character... but... okay.Archrival wrote:OOC stands for Out Of Character (Yeah I know the 'of' should not be included but meh that's how it's always been.

Because Timer knows what's best because Timer needs to put back a certain spacy RP that needs a reboot.

Closely related to this topic, we've added some new links to the website that we'd like you to check out including:
These men and women have sacrificed their freedom to stand up to the destruction our government and corporations are inflicting on animals and our planet. None of them have injured another human, yet they are often given lengthy prison sentences in comparison with other crimes. (Marie Mason is serving 22 years for charges relating to damaging an office connected to GMO research and destroying a piece of logging equipment.) Marie's support site makes a great point when they say that supporting her does not mean agreeing with the actions that she took — but it does mean opposing the fear-mongering tactics of the federal government and the outrageous sentences they have imposed. How far is this repression going to go? It's incredibly scary to think about.
For a complete list of current prisoners, please visit BITE BACK Magazine. Take a moment today to write a quite letter of support to one or all of them. Thank you!

We honor the work of his first term - especially his leadership in the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" - and expect great progress over the next four years on the very real inequalities that exist for our LGBT service members, veterans, and their families as we work together to bend the moral arc of the universe toward justice," she said.

Hypermobile joints are joints that move beyond the normal range with little effort. Joints most commonly affected are the elbows, wrists, fingers, and knees.
Joint hypermobility; Loose joints; Hypermobility syndrome
Children are often more flexible than adults, but those with hypermobile joints can flex and extend their joints beyond what is considered normal. The movement is done without too much force and without discomfort.
Thick bands of tissue called ligaments help hold joints together and keep them from moving too much or too far. In children with hypermobility syndrome, those ligaments are loose or weak. This may lead to:
Children with hypermobile joints also often have flat feet.
Hypermobile joints often occur in otherwise healthy and normal children. This is called benign hypermobility syndrome.
Rare medical conditions associated with hypermobile joints include:
There is no specific care for this condition. Persons with hypermobile joints have an increased risk for joint dislocation and other problems.
Extra care may be needed to protect the joints. Ask your health care provider for recommendations.
Call your health care provider if:
Hypermobile joints often occur with other symptoms that, taken together, define a specific syndrome or condition. A diagnosis is based on a family history, medical history, and a complete physical exam. The exam includes a close look at our muscles and bones.
The doctor or nurse will ask questions about the symptoms, including:
Further tests may be done.

In original vampire lore, vampires had the ability to turn into wolves. She is, for all intents and purposes a pure vampire. That said, I'm assuming the Count must've turned her at some point, since it was a kid's show, and a short for that matter. It never got to that point.

Introducing Allie from Assumption. Let's not mince words here. Springfield beat Worcester fair and square on the facebook likes thing. But once we announced Springfield I had people coming out of the woodwork from Worcester saying you can't judge a team on paper. Worcester already proved they will dominate any and all Foam parties. If anybody deserved Round II it's them. I kind of agreed. And then we get smokes like Allie saying she went the first time and is dying for Round II and that seals it. Friday February 22nd it is. Worcester vs. Springfield for total bragging rights. DING DING DING.

"Event: Parent's 50th Wedding Anniversary This card is GORGEOUS!. The picture does not show the elegant characteristics of this card. Wow were we impressed. We are in love with Wedding Paper Divas."
"We wanted place cards to go with our invitations, but there weren't any that matched. We used the Ombre Forest invites and requested that the designers make these place cards match in color and font. The results were great! We also changed the bottom to "Eat and laugh at table __". Everything turned out perfectly!"
"These cards were perfect for my engagement party. I appreciated the fact that the lettering at the bottom of the card was able to be changed to whatever I wanted - instead of it saying "You are seated at table ____" I was able to put "Welcome to the Party!" and everyone loved them. Thank you!"
"This place card is just as beautiful and luxurious as the fanciful monogram invitation. The paper is thick, and the monogram and fonts match perfectly. This is a folding card, which would hold up nicely on its own on a table. We are putting the place cards in a slit at the top of a gavel we had made as a place card holder, and it looks great! We are so happy to keep the "fanciful monogram" theme going through our wedding - from our invitations to our place cards. Too bad they don't have a matching menu!"
"This is such a simple, effective and beautiful place card. You can also personalize it to add a little saying or something to make it you."

Accelerated Technology's New Nucleus USB Class Drivers Provide Support for Streaming Audio/Video Applications
MOBILE, Ala., July 27, 2005 - Accelerated Technology, a Mentor Graphics division (Nasdaq: MENT), today announced two new class drivers for the Nucleus{reg} USB software, which provides Universal Serial Bus (USB) support for the Nucleus Real-Time Operating System (RTOS). The Nucleus USB Audio class driver and the Nucleus USB Video class driver are designed so that developers can quickly and easily build USB-compliant devices that incorporate streaming audio and/or video functionalities.
Multimedia presents a variety of new problems for developers of embedded devices including streaming large amounts of real-time, higher quality audio and video data over connected devices. Because USB offers a plug-and-play standard interface, higher data transfer rate and greater flexibility in terms of hot swapping, it is rapidly being adopted by embedded device manufacturers to develop today's multimedia devices. The introduction of USB audio and video class specifications, which standardized transport and synchronization mechanisms, allows many audio and video devices to become fully interoperable via USB. As a result, embedded device manufacturers no longer need to tackle the complex and time-consuming task of developing and installing custom device drivers.
The Nucleus USB Audio class driver and the Nucleus USB Video class driver enable developers to create a wide range of complex, multimedia-based devices. By using USB for audio or video streaming , a developer needs to implement only a single Nucleus USB class driver instead of a separate driver for each device. Typical applications in which developers use the Nucleus USB Audio class driver include voice telephony, audio playback and recording. Applications that use the Nucleus USB Video class driver include simple webcams, digital camcorders, digital video cameras and TV tuners.
Availability and Pricing
The Nucleus embedded software is licensed with source code and without royalty fees. Available now, licenses for the Nucleus USB software start at U.S. $14,995 and licenses for the class drivers begin at U.S. $2,995. The new Nucleus USB Audio class driver and the Nucleus USB Video class driver have been released for use with the Nucleus USB host stack, which is USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 compliant, and support the isochronous data transfer type for media streaming. The Nucleus USB Audio class driver and the Nucleus USB Video class driver both adhere to the USB audio and video class specifications.

� t VOL. XXIJI, No. 12 BRYN MAWR AND WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 15, 1937 brCyTmawrRcoSlleE|e!:>';�37 PRICE 10 CENTS Museum Job Demands Specialized Education Miss Mongan States Applicants Should Have Background In Fine Arts INCOME IS NOT LARGE Common Room, January 11.�Per- sistence and training are the primary needs of the would-be museum worker, according to Miss Agnes Mongan, Di- rector of Drawings at the Fogg Mu- seum in Cambridge, Mass. In a field already crowded there is nevertheless room for the person who has a spe- cialty and concentrates on it. In choosing a subject for speciali- zation, the student should have an eye to the branches of museum work which contain the greatest opportunity for women. The publicity, education and financial departments and the library staff offer possibilities, as well as the technical end, which includes chem- istry, photography and other lines of special training. Administrative jobs are also available to women, but ow- ing to the small number of posts there are few chances of getting one. � ** A student, whether or not she has chosen a definite field for research; should include certain essential sub- jects in her training. In addition to a fine arts background, she should have as many languages as possible, French, German, Italian, perhaps Latin and Greek, and if she is very enterprising and has a particular in- terest for future study, Sanskrit, Arabic or Chinese. The Fogg Mu- seum and the Newark Museum now give one-year graduate courses in mu- seum work, which discuss the routine jobs and details of the field. In 1936 the Carnegie Institute offered a series of interne fellowships at the Brooklyn Museum which eventually led to per- manent positions. Abroad special training can be had at the Courtauld Institute, a branch of the University Continued on PagA Three FOUR ARTS COMBINED IN WAGNERIAN OPERA Deanery, January 10.�"An opera, for Wagner, was a single organic unity," said Miss Florence Fraser in an introduction to her dramatic re- cital of Die Meistersinger Sunday afternoon. It was a unity made up of four arts: literature in the libretto sculpture in the gestures and poses of the actors; architecture in the scen- ery, and music as the main quality which blends in with the other three to form a perfect whole. With this opening comment Miss Fraser renewed for her audience the delightful setting of sixteenth century Nuremberg with its guilds, its bottle- glass windows and happy festivals. Then, fitting the principal characters into the setting, she played the leit motifs which were characteristic of them and which were to appear again and again in the progression of the opera. She played the spirited song of the Meistersingers, the light, airy theme of David, the young shoemak- er's apprentice, and the more sedate theme of the poet-philosopher, Hans Sachs. With her real feeling for the music, she made the audience actu- . ally see the characters living in the enchanting German village. While she played the music she ex- plained the story iri her own words, re-creating the humor and the beauty of each part of the well-known opera. In a little over an,hour she placed the whole meaning of the opera be- fore her audience. Her ability' to play the piano with precision and ex- pression, as well as her imagination in describing the characters, the scen- ery and the plot, made the recital not only informative-but very real. To make an audience appreciate an opera without a stage and actors is a great achievement which Miss Fraser suc- ceeded* in accomplishing. �^ Miss Fraser will give the same re- cital at the Cosmopolitan Club in ' Philadelphia, and it is highly recom- mended to those who missed the op- portunity of hearing her in, the Dean- ery.

European Dictatorships Have Become Religious Mrs. Chapman Advises Definition of Democratic Liberties Common Room, January 7.�Euro- pean dictatorships as religious and philisophical appeals to their peoples were discussed by Mrs. Mildred Chap- man, recently returned from study in Geneva, before guests cf Mrs. fan- ning, which included members of the International Club. Mrs. Chapman urged that we learn to define to our- selves exactly what our liberties mein and that we prune our society of its weakening aspects in order to preserve it from the spiritual imprisonment which many foreign countries are suf- fering. For them both the individual and society have vanished and only the nation remains. Propaganda in dictaiorshipt is in- escapable, Mrs. Chapma 'saidr Mein Kampf is the German bible. Books and discussions in schools center about the dictator. German children are lit- erally taught to regard Hitler as a *\Jesus, in the love and self-sacrifice he feels for his people." Even sci- ence and knowledge are no longer for human good. "We do not know or recognize a truth for truth's sake or science for science's sake," announced a German professor. The Russians, according to a French author to whom Mrs. Chapman re- ferred, regard their government as the victory of natural order over the anarchy^of capitalism, whose sin lies in the exploitation of man by man. Their dictatorship is regarded as a period of purification; their class, the proletcriat, are the chosen people who have the mission of spreading* the truth, and their high priest is Stalin. It is only this incentive which has made bearable their suffering and the completion of their five-year plan in four years. Italian nationalism is very like Ger- man, but it emphasizes state rather than racial unity. Mussolini believes that victory comes to the spirited. European nations, as a whole, are lined up according to whether they are "haves" or "have nots." Consid- eration of justified demands of these "have nots" would be a move towards peace, Mrs. Chapman feels. However, the problem which faces democracies of cooperating with Fascist nations is difficult because the latter have no morality regarding treaties. Hellenistic Influence Found in Judaic Art Choice of Oriental Types Shows Assimilation May Have Begun In Near East CULMINATED AT DURA Music Room, January 7.�Jewish art in Roman times employed Greek motifs to give a' new meaning to Ju- daism, Dr. Erwin R. Goodenough said in a talk on Jewish Art in the Roman and Byzantine Periods. Dr. Good- enough is Professor of the History of Religion and a Fellow of Jonathan Edwards""College at Yale University. Within the last fifty years, Dr. Goodenough stated, Hebrew art of the early Christian age has been discov- ered in Rome, Malta, North Africa, Palestine and Dura that shows strong Hellenistic influence and which seems to indicate a new feeling not characl teristic of Judaism as we know itl In Roman catacombs, clearly ^Jewish by the inscriptions, peacocks, common in Hellenistic funeral art, winged victories and cupids have been com- bined with the native Jewish designs of the seven-branched candlestick, the Torah-shrine and the palm-tree. In Malta, besides the catacomb art, a lamp has been found decorated with an altar and two snakes, the symbol for the Lares of a Roman house, and the familiar Jewish candlestick. The Jewish assimilation of Hel- lenistic motifs probably began in the East, because the pagan types of de- sign chosen are for the most part oriental in origin. The eagle, com- ,non in the Jewish art of this period, is an eastern symbol, as is the lion's mask, examples of which may be seen on early statues uf the sun-god of S>iia. '. The zodiac' which was widely used in Babylonian art, also appears. This art, which symbolizes the true Judaism, culminates at Dura in'the synagogue built in 245 A. D. Here Bacchic motifs and a picture of Or- pheus with his lyre are combined with Old Testament stories to form a highly intcllectualized and conven- tionalized narrative. An interpreta- tion of this narrative shows a new mystic feeling in the Jewish religion which explains the use of Greek art forms. The pagan motifs, which are completely abstract, are chosen be- cause of some slight analogy to Jew- ish stories, and are adapted to Jewish ideas no matter what their implica- tions. For example, Orphic hymns mention the "throne of God"; ac- cordingly, Orpheus with his lyre sym- bolizes the dream of Moses about oc- cupying God's throne, without regard to the polytheistic connotations of Orpheus himself. DR. GOLDSTEIN SPEAKS Dr. Kurt Goldstein speaking in the Deanery on Saturday, January 9, on Cortical Functions explained the lapse in abstract thinking as dtoe"to lesions in the frontal lobe of the brain. After working with patients in New York and Germany, he has foufcd that such lesions only allow concrete thought. The sufferer can do no thinking without a definite object stimulus. Reserve Room Book Clean-Up Under Way Princeton and Yale Addresses Printed in Economics Book Through the combined effprts of the Library Staff, students *nd- high school girls, over three hundred books in the Reserve Room ha"ve been cleaned. Work started on Tuesday, January 5, and it is hoped all -the books on reserve will be finished before the semester is over so that those of the second semester may be done as soon as they come up from the stacks. The workers are chiefly girls from Radnor, Lower Merion High School and Shipley School, who are here six days a week for about three hoursv The money>o pay them is coming out of theydfudent assessment of fifty cents per person. The girls have started to look over the books in alphabetical order and are now on the English books, which are the worst of all. Each book is gone through page by page and checked when finished, so that any new markings may be de- tected at once. Some have so much writing that it is impossible to erase it and the book must be discarded. However, only five or six of these have been found so far. As the girls go Continued on P**e Four NEW HISTORY COURSE Miss Robbins is giving an advanced course in Modem English Hisfbry next semester, probably meeting Mon- days, Tuesdays and Wednesdays at nine.

Goodhart After Triumph Here and Abroad PRICELESS VOLUMES ON VIEW IN LIBRARY A valuable exhibition of the Li- brary's rare books are now on view- in the New Book Room. Many of them date from the middle eighteenth century and are priceless in value, being irreplaceable. All the books have been waxed ac- cording to a method obtained direct from the British Museum and are in a special book-case and on the table. A few years ago plans were drawn up for. a special book-case to house these precious books which would grant maximum visibility and great- est protection from dust and moisture. Such a case in the New Book Room would guarantee the continual and permanent showing of the Incunabula with perfect safety. However, as there are no funds available at pres- ent, this necessary addition to the Library must be postponed. Social Economy Major Supported by A. S. U. Clothing, Food to be Collected for Spanish Loyalists Common Room, January 8.�Fash- ionable as it is to exist glumly in pre- exam weeks, A. S. U. members an- nounce the introduction of a comic (as well as a humane) spurt in cam- pus affairs. Next Thursday faculty and undergraduates are invited to tea in the Common Room, provided that they come equipped with one piece of old clothing or one article of canned goods. The collection is for the Spanish government. It was also decided that the chapter would evidence its support of the movement for a social economy major by writing a letter to the Curriculum Committee. Announcement was made of a dance to be held in Philadelphia by local A. S. U. groups on February 5. Tick- ets may be obtained from Mary Dimock, 4 Pembroke West. Bertha Goldstein, '38; Helen Hamil- ton, '39, and Agnes Spencer, '39, re- ported on the National A. S. U. con- ference which they attended in Chi- cago. Miss Spencer emphasized the aim of the A. S. U., that "it shall be as broad as possible�a liberal or- ganization spread throughout schools and colleges," supporting "democracy and peace." She further stressed the need for solidarity with organized labor which is a force responsible for public schools and many other progressive measures. In this connection she urged affiliation with relief work and the realization of the evils of "scab- bing" during strikes. Miss Hamilton presented peace measures which were discussed, such as the improvement of the Peace demonstration in the spring and the continued^ attack on R. O. T. C. through the Nye-Kvale bill which is shortly to come up_ before Congress. A more detailed report of the con- ference will be found in last week's News. References for "Man" Lectures Reference books for the series of lectures on "The Nature of Man," which, will be begun by Mr. Helson on Monday, February 8, at 7.30 P. M. are being placed in the Carola Woeris- hoffer Room. ALTERED REPERTOIRE After a triumphant procession through Europe and Asia, Uday Shan- Kar and his Hindu Ballet have re- turned to America in a new reper- toire of solo ant group numbers, which they will present in the Audi- torium of Goodhart Hall on Thursday evening, February 4. In spite of changes wrought by both time and intent, the performance has retained the exotic beauty and ex- treme delicacy which characterized its former presentation in the United States. The'opening Sunday in New York-was attended by a capacity audi- ence which was loud and insistent in its demonstrations of approval. Madhavan, a dancer new to the company since its last engagement in America, --add*? according to John Martin, ofi^ne Times, a "vital kind of nervous energy and an earthier temperament," to the "subtlety, no- bility and serenity of Shan-Kar." The dances themselves contain the coi'e of the cosmos as perceived by the Hindu for thousands of years. They deal with love, the gods, reli- gious ritual and the soil, and are pre- sented against the rich pageantry of traditional costumes and orchestral music. Tickets for the performance are: For the College�Front section, 11.50*, Back, $1.25. Outside�Front section, $2.00. Back, $1.50. BtelcUhV (unreserved and for col- lege only), $1.00. SYSTEM OF REQUIREDS IS APPROVED BY DEAN Miss Fiesel to Spetik Jan. 19 * � The Linguistic Discussion Group will not meet this week but will hold its next meeting Tuesday, January 19, in the Deanery. Miss Fiesel will speak on Some Problepu of Transla- tion. Music Room, January 7.�The tra- ditional system of required courses in as small a college as Bryn Mawr is a distinct advantage, Mrs. Manning stated in chapel as her personal re- action to the current controversy on required courses. Most people will agree, she feels, that the requireds, as they stand now, give undergraduates and alumnae certain common angles of approach. The best kind of required course is obviously one of general interest. A science, for instance, gives the stu- den^an idea of the scientific method as a whole arid of deductive reason- ing. Its second requisite is that it should leave some kind of permanent impression. Little is remembered of a general history course unless branches of it are later studied in detail. On the other hand, literature is retained more accurately without being followed up because it often has a personal emotional coloring at- tached to it. For this reason require- ments in literature have an advantage. Finally a required course should have freshness and give the student a new milieu in which to move. The charm of first-year philosophy, which is rarely studied in school," consists in its novelty. English literature is in- cluded in the preparatory school cur- riculum and, though given more fully in college, is not as fresh a subject as philosophy. Yet there is- reason to believe that in time English litera- ture as a required course can be given with new angles. MR. FENWICK RETURNS FROM BUENOS AIRES Mr. Fenwick returned on January 8 from South America, where he has been attending the Peace Conference as a delegate. On his return trip he flew from Buenos Aires across to the lowest coast of the continent and then up the crest of Andes. The flight took frve days, and was "thrilling." Mr. Fenwick hopes to be able to give a talk like a "Current Events" either this week or next about this flight and about the work of the conference.

The 2011 Tokyo Game Show is now in full swing. Today marks day two of the four day event and so far it seems like all eyes are fixed in on Sony's next-gen portable handheld, PS Vita. Amongst a slew of information presented at a press conference that kicked off TGS, Sony announced a list of launch titles (some of which will be available to demo over the weekend at TGS), as well as a release date this year on December 17 (but only in Japan).
Being a winter baby, this could have been the perfect birthday / Christmas present for me. But it looks like North America and Europe will have to wait until early 2012. And since I still don't have my hands on a Nintendo 3DS yet, I suspect it's going to be a very long winter. In the meantime, I'll wait patiently for my Top Three Most Anticipated Sony PS Vita games

Britain Talk Accompanied by Films Showing War Efforts Of Allies Goodhart, January 17�In the interest of better Anglo-Ameri- can relations, Miss Gertrude Lawrence presented three British Information Service films to ex- plain the spirit of our allies� Great Britain and Russia. In a short introductory speech, Miss Lawrence stressed the importance of having more confidence in our allies and of ridding ourselves of prejudices that could cause an- other war. Emphazing the horror of this war, Miss Lawrence said that ef- ficiency in working together is not enough to insure a lasting peace. We must maintain the freedom for which men are fighting. To do this, we must think with our hearts and our heads in order to realize the sacrifices that other nations have made and to deter- mine that such a war will never happen again.

For Post in Victoria Ernest Willoughby, Assistant Professor of Music, has been ask- ed to take the position of organist and choirmaster of the Christ Church Cathedral at Victoria, Brit- ish Columbia. His departure next month will mark the end of twen- ty years in the music department of the college. In addition to his regular classes, he has been asso- ciated with all musical events in- cluding the operettas. Lantern Night, and May Day. In his position as choir director, Continued on Page 3 Philadelphia, January 13�"The increased racial tension in this country indicates the absolute ne- cessity for social planning for better adjustment in the future," stated Lester B. Granger, Execu- tive Secretary of the National Urban League, in a discussion of the "Techniques of Inter-racial Adjustment" at the Philadelphia local chapter of the American Association of Social Workers. Emphasizing the part which so- cial workers should play in al- leviating the conditions and ten- sions of minority groups, Mr. Granger stressed the great res- ponsibility of such an undertak- ing. The acute racial tension arises, Mr. Granger pointed out, from the tradition of exploiting minor- ity groups as labor, one of the natural resources. Increased discussion of democratic ideals, he said, have developed during the war and have resulted in new demands of minority groups. Migration Migration of Negroes from ru- ral to urban districts and from Southern to Northern cities has been taking place since World War I, Mr. Granger pointed out, and indications show that it will be a continuous process. The rea- son for this, he explained, is the regular drive to better oneself, to migrate to areas offering em- ployment and less discrimination. The Zoot-Suiters, continued Mr. Granger ,are an example of the extremes to which minority groups have gone. It ds a revolt on the part of Italian, Negro, Polish and Mexican youths against all adult standards since they, in America, are denied democracy, -^^n American towns and cities, the Urban League Executive Sec- retary stated, the Negro popula- tion is a good barometer of the conditions existing in the gener- cl community. War Film Describes Nazis' Rise to Power Goodhart, January 14. "The Nazis Strike," the second of the series of seven films produced by the War Department Research Council for the army, tells the his- tory of Hitler's rise to power through successive bold moves, emphasizing the conquest of Pol- and, in September, 1939. The military history of Germany was reviewed, with the statements of the ideas of Bismarck in 1863, of Kaiser Wilhelm in 1914, and of Hitler in 1933, all indicating their plans for world domination. Hit- ler's aim is to conquer the entire world, for which purpose his geo- politicians have divided the earth into sections which he plans to take one by one: first the "heart land," (central Europe) then the rest of Europe, Asia, Africa�"the world island," and finally the world. The Nazis' bid for world su- premacy began in Germany. They softened their enemies in advance by means of propaganda to divide, confuse and terrorize. France, Bel- gium and England became ac- quainted with National Socialism, as they watched its working and were besieged with its propaganda. At home Germany was preparing for war by rationing of food, and absolute control of all German life by the Nazi party, enforced by means of secret police and concen- tration camps. They built a tre- mendous army of highly trained officers in defiance of the Versailles Treaty. The first step in Germany's con- quest was the fortification of the Rhineland in which they built the famous Seigfried Line. The next move came on March 12, 1938, Continued on Ptge 4 By Alison Merrill, '45 Cornelia Otis Skinner presented five of the monologues which she has made famous on the American stage at Haverford last Wednes- day night. Playing to *n audience which filled the aisles and the or- chestra pit of Roberts Hall, Miss Skinner admirably mastered the difficulty of remaining in charac- ter and in complete control during the prolonged bursts of uproarious laughter which followed her every third sentence. It bespeaks her years of exper- ience and her magnificent stage presence that, without the support of scenery and other actors or any actual stage business, she could carry through her characteriza- tions, never giving evidence of any discomfort nor communicating any to her audience. By virtue of her own charm and personal appeal and by virtue of the careful struc- ture of her monologues, as well as her ability as an actress, she over- came the dangers that are inher- ent in the monologue as a drama- tic form. "Times Square" Most interesting from the point of view of displaying the range of Miss Skinner's talent was the monologue titled "Times Square," presumably a section of Broadway at the theatre hour. Using a long, red chiffon scarf as the only stage property, she presented a series of lightning-quick changes and contrasts in character study. She progressed from an old Italian woman peddling chewing gum to a Brooklyn "babe", a bored social- ite whose chauffeur had not yet appeared, an appealing ingenue, a southern doll who thinks New York is "cute", a woman whose husband is near death, a sailor's pickup, a drug addict, returning finally to the peddler softly mut- tering Italian. Making the changes externally by a turn at one end of the stage and a twist of her scarf, Continued on Ptge 3 Henri Peyre as Flexner Lecturer � Will Analyze Modern French Novel Yale Professor to Review Works of Proust, Gide In Talks Commissioned A recent cable received from Rabat, Morocco, states that Mademoiselle Germaine Bree has been commissioned a cap- tain in the Free French Forces, having been transferred from the Rochambean Ambulance Unit to the job as Head of the Bureau des interpretes�liaison, armee de l'air, with tWe rank of captain. Salvemini to Outline Problems of Italians In February Lecture Gaetano Salvemini, a distin- guished Italian liberal, will pre- sent the fifth in the series of War Alliances assemblies on cur- rent affairs on February 8. His lecture will concern Italy from the Italian point of view. A noted historian Mr. Salvemini was for many years professor of modern history in various Ital- ian universities; at the Univers- ity of Messina from 1901 to 1908, the University of Pisa 1910-16, the University of Florence 1916- 25. He was also a member of the Italian cabinet from 1919 to 1921. He left Italy in 1926 for political reasons, and in September 1929 he was deprived of his Italian cit- izenship, and his property was confiscated. Mr. Salvemini has never been allied with any of the Italian re- actionary groups, Fascist or Mon- archist, here or abroad but is an unwavering advocate of true de- mocracy, a liberal idealist. In 1932 he settled in the United States and recently became an American citizen. A visiting pro- fessor at Harvard in 1930 and at Yale in 1932, he has been the Lauro de Boss lecturer of the His- Continued on Page 4 Blue Paint, Black Eyes of Freshman Hazing Ended by College Council Recommendations By April Oursler, '46 No longer will there be suicide leaps from the beams of Goodhart stage, no longer will doors be un- hinged and no more black eyes will brighten the horizon. Freshman hazing has undergone a radical change as a result of the new ad- ministration ruling. It is fitting then that we write the obituary of the past days of hazing, the days of the battle of paint and fists in Goodhart, and the history of haz- ing in recent years. It was February, 1941. Blue paint swirled down from Goodhart rafters, Sophomore after Sopho- more was allegedly swung off the stage to land in a frenzy of upper- classmen, and the battle royal, otherwise known as the rehearsal of '44's Freshman Show, was un- derway. ,_ - Since the law then stood that Sophomores were not allowed on the stage, myriad squatting figures nonplussed the Freshmen as they gazed into the beams directly over, but definitely not on the stage. The stairs to the rafters were barri- caded, Sophomores were forced to jump to the stage, and there was the little question of the buckets of water that turned out to be blue pain, giving one daybed, one coat and the half-finished scenery a slightly aquamarine hue. Having achieved this new height of violence, Freshman hazing grew steadily in atrocity, reaching its culmination with the introduc- tion of dogfish livers lifted from the Biology Lab., and casually in- serted in Freshman slippers and mittens. One misguided soul de- cided they were nothing but slight- ly old bananas, and disposed of them in her own way. Two Freshmen, feeling their idi- osyncrasies of careful dress in this unfashionable campus about to be laid bare by the cruel Sophomores, packed their best clothes up in suitcases, one carefully stored in the attic, the other chained to the washstand with a bicycle lock. Their fears were evidently justi- fied, for one less provident, and equally well-dAssed Freshman re- turned from rehearsal one day to find all her clothes neatly stored in her closet, the door locked and the key gone. A wily lass, she stealthily unhinged the door, trans- ferred the clothes to a "fellow- Freshmans"' closet, and said nothing, merely appearing hourly in a new costume before the amaz- ed Sophomores. Henri Peyre, the Mary Flexner lecturer for 1944, will present a series of six lectures on the con- temporary French novel beginning February 7. M. Peyre, docteur des lettres, is at present Sterling professor of French in Yale Uni- versity. His lectures will be giv- en in Goodhart every Monday night at 8:30 for six weeks start- ing February 7, and continuing through March 13. The lectures will be in English. In addition to the lecture ser- ies, M. Peyre will conduct a sem- inar on Thursdays from 4 until 6 for graduate students and ad- vanced undergraduates in the French department. He will take part in the advanced French nov- el course and will hold office hours for students. The subjects for the Flexner lectures are as follows: February 7�The Legacy of Proust in the Contemporary Novel. February 14�From Andre Gide (0 Francois Mauriac. February 21�Tradition and Ex- periment: Romains, Martin du Gard, Celine. February 28�The Younger Generation: Julian Green and Malraux. March 6�The Epic Novel: Jean Giono. March 13�Saint Exupery. M. Peyre was born in Paris in 1901, and he studied for his de- crees there. His American ca- reer started at Bryn Mawr as a member of the French Depart- ment from 1925 to 1928. He then went to Yale, where he has re- mained except for an interval at the University of Cairo in Egypt. In 1938 he became Sterling Pro- fessor at Yale and received his degree of A. M. from that uni- versity in 1939. M. Peyre has written many books on French classicism. His most recent works are L'influence des Literature antique sur la lit- erature Francaise moderne, pub- lished in 1941, and Le classicisme Francaise, published in 1942. His book, Shelley et La France, was printed in Cairo ip 1935. A num- ber of volumes of classical plays have been edited by M. Peyre. Novels on Reserve For Peyre Lectures In preparation for the Flexner Lecture series to be given this year by Henri Peyre on the mod- ern French novel, a selection of novels- has been put. on reserve in the Quita Woodward Room in the Library. The novels are those that M. Peyre intends to discuss in his lectures, and he has recom- mended that they be read in ad- vance. The reserve, which in- cludes translations of fhe novela, is to be used in the Library. The selection is as follows: DuGard ... The Thibaults, La Consultation Giono . . . Un de Baumugnes Gide ...

Hi all!
I'm a Dutch guy, have been living in France for over two years now. Since september I study English at the university in France (distance study). To get my degree, I have to go abroad in an English speaking environment for at least 3 months (during the 3 years of the degree).
At the same time I'm starting this year with beekeeping. From monday on I will be a happy owner of 13 beehives. So the thing is that I have to stay with my bees during the summer, then I will have the possibility to go abroad during the winter.
So what I was thinking about:
When winter starts in France (or at least; from the moment the bees won't leave their hives) I will go abroad to the southern hemisphere. Hopefully somewhere I can get a job for three months as a beekeeper (or internist).
So now I would like to ask you guys some advice. Do you know places to go to? Countries/cities/anywhere the beekeeping season is during the winter of France (say, from september till february)? Enterprises, small or big, local beekeepers, research centres.. Anywhere I can learn more about bees and where I can find myself in an English speaking environment..
Thank you so much!

The festival has gone international in recent years, debuting in South America in Santiago, Chile in 2001. The second international show was in Sao Paulo, Brazil the next year. There are Lollapaloozas scheduled in the upcoming years from Tel Aviv, Israel and Buenos Aires, Argentina as well. Score with TicketCity - the place to go for Lollapalooza Music Festival tickets.

The Lollapalooza Music Festival has been held at Grant Park in downtown Chicago since 2005. Previous to that, it was touring through the country. Grant Park is 319 acres in the Loop area on Chicago and includes many famous Chicago landmarks, such as Millennium Park, the Arti Institute of Chicago and Museum Campus. It is bordered on the west by Lake Michigan. Lollapalooza is under contract to be staged at Grant Park through 2018.
There are many hotels near Grant Park, though with the public transportation available it's not absolutely essential to stay within walking distance. If you are looking for something very close, check out the University Club of Chicago, Hotel Burnham and the Silversmith Hotel.
TicketCity offers a large selection of Lollapalooza tickets which includes some of the lowest priced seats on the market. Lollapalooza ticket prices fluctuate based on the lineup released every year, but it is always packed with top performers from all over the world. TicketCity has been a source for Lollapalooza tickets for 20+ years. The Lollapalooza is one of the biggest music festivals in the world, so if you're looking for cheap tickets you may want to act early.
The venue gates will open at 11:00AM each day rain or shine, and the music will end at 10 PM.
Yes there are four underground garages directly beneath Grant Park, but keep in mind that parking just about anywhere in Chicago is quite expensive. We suggest looking for the best train or bus route to Grant Park.
You may bring in blankets, sheets and towels, as well as soft-sided coolers and baby strollers. Two factory-sealed water bottlers per person are allowed. No other food or drink is allowed, as well as no chairs or tents of any kind.

Ask A QuestionMy 10 year old is 5'4 and 85 lbs. What suggestions do you have for a good bat?
Using our bat coach feature on our website, a 30" 19 oz. Marucci Black 2 Youth Baseball Bat (MYBB20) would be a good size and weight for an average 5'4", 85 lbs 10 year old to use. The Marucci Black 2 is going to be a seamless two-piece designed bat with a composite handle and an alloy barrel. The Marucci Black 2 has an extended barrel design which creates a large sweet spot, while still having a balanced swing weight.
My son is 12 years old. What size bat would you recommend? He's 4'11" and about 90 lbs. What is the difference between the senior 30" minus 10 and the youth 30" minus 10?
For a player of his size, our bat coach is recommending a 30" model. The difference between the two models will be the barrel diameter of the bat.
My little bro is 4' 6" and 88 lbs. What bat would be good for him?
The Marucci Black 2 Youth Baseball Bat (MYBB20) would be a great selection. Also, the 2014 DeMarini Vexxum Youth Baseball Bat (DXVXL) is a very popular youth model. Both of these will be very balanced. They will have a light swing weight and be very durable.
Product Description
The all new Marucci Black 2 picks up right where the original Black left off. The extended barrel and massive sweet spot are back, but the Black 2 takes your game further than ever before. A more even balance point gives youth players complete control so that they can hit the sweet spot on ANY pitch. Plus, new anti-vibration technology, featuring a Kevlar-reinforced grip, means players don't have to give a second thought to hand sting ever again. The two-piece Black 2 features a seamless construction that maximizes the transfer of energy from barrel to ball. The barrel is made from Marucci's AZ3000 Aerospace Alloy that provides maximum responsiveness and durability. The extended barrel design of the Black 2 gives it a larger sweet spot and more jump off of the bat for MORE DISTANCE behind every hit! The handle is made from Marucci's carbon composite and fortified with their patented Unequal aramid-reinforced grip that silences the sting of off-center hits. When you swing the Marucci Black 2, expect nothing less than the best feeling bat EVER. Marucci: Made of Metal, Born from Wood!
