Oatmeal Draper Upholstered Bed
Stylish bed
I am very happy with this bed. I got it on sale and I had an explorer coupon so it was very affordable. DEFINITELY follow the advice of earlier reviewers and get longer wood nails. That will save you energy.
I got help from friends but it was not difficult to put together. I love the design -- it is adaptable to a variety of colors and decors.

Great bed, very affordable
This was super easy to put together and really pulls the bedroom together. I have dark furniture aside from this so it's a nice contrast.

Perfect bed for an outstanding price!
I absolutely love this bed and could not be happier with my purchase. The assembly was easy, although it does require the purchase of longer screws as other users have noted, as well as an electric screwdriver. The upholstery is beautiful, as are the dark brown wooden legs. It fits a low-profile box spring and standard queen size mattress quite nicely, with room for Euro size pillows that still sit below the top of the headboard. This looks exactly like a bed that would cost hundreds of dollars more -- such a steal. I have had no issues with squeaking or movement. I think that World Market updated this bed since the 2010 reviewers have commented, so I would say confidently that you can ignore those reviews. Highly recommended!!

Great Buy!
I went to World Market and ordered this bed to be delivered to the store to avoid the $100 shipping fee. After reading ALL of the reviews we were prepared for all that could go wrong. We had longer screws (which we didn't use because we used larger wider slants from our old bed. It is beyond our expectations! I was able to use my 15% off birthday coupon so we got a queen size for a total of $267. Happy birthday to me! My husband put the bed together 3/30/13 in about an hour or less. The bed is able to withstand 344lbs which is both our weight combined. We actually stood in the bed together to hang art above it. It is so quiet, no squeaking, creaking, nothing just complete quiet. I suppose we didn't really realize how bad our old bed was until we bought this. After sleeping 1 night on the bed my husband was like, "That's the best sleep I have had in a long time." I feel totally rested and completely happy with our purchase. It is sleek, modern and just the look we wanted for our 1 room of the house that's just ours. Now I will slowing bring in other accents to complete the look.

Very pleased!
I bought this bed in a queen size during the March sale. I was originally skeptical due to the numerous reviews about the thin slats. But, I figured if they were really that bad I would go out and buy better ones since I got such good deal on the frame. After buying the frame, I purchased a memory foam mattress. Other reviews recommended using a box spring with a memory foam on this bed, but I didn't. My boyfriend and I have a combined weight of 270. I have not heard one creak from the slats, the mattress does not sag, the bed is completely solid, and I am thoroughly enjoying my bigger bed.
I will say that the middle support leg is too short. I tried adjusting it but it still was an inch shorter than the legs. The bottom of half of the bed does sit on a rug, but the rug isn't more than a 1/4" thick. I ended up sticking 2 floor protectors together under the leg. So far it's worked.

Way better than I expected
Purchased last year on sale...was looking for something to fit in a small guest bedroom...My hubby who complains about the workmanship quality in most products that require assembly was very surprised at how well this was constructed...Also the headboard upholstery is from top to bottom...most other upholstered beds have a black or white material that starts at mattress height and can be seen from side views...included a pic my small guest bedroom...
March 20, 2013
Great Value!
My husband was not convinced that our guest room needed a full bed frame. After shopping around to find the perfect one (I wanted an upholstered frame), I quickly realized that World Market offered the best pricing. Delivery took only a few days, assembly was super easy, and the end result is stunning. Immediately after seeing the bed put together, my husband wanted to purchase a king size for our bedroom!
December 24, 2012
Best bang for the buck!
Found this bed while looking for info on the CB Tate bed, read all the reviews and decided to take a chance, I mean it was a fraction of the price. If it wasn't good enough for my primary bed, I was going to use it as a guest bed.
My biggest concern from reading the reviews was that the bed squeaked, and it does because the wood slats rub on the wood rails. I applied some parafin wax to the bed rails, reinstalled the bed slats and voila! No more squeaks. If you get this bed or any other bed of similar design, put some wax on the contact points where wood touches wood and you will be happy.
Oh, and get longer screws, #8 x 1 3/4", you'll need at least 8.

When literature student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating. The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realize she wants this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get close to him. Unable to resist Ana's quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit, Grey admits he wants her, too—but on his own terms.
Shocked yet thrilled by Grey's singular erotic tastes, Ana hesitates. For all the trappings of success—his multinational businesses, his vast wealth, his loving family—Grey is a man tormented by demons and consumed by the need to control. When the couple embarks on a daring, passionately physical affair, Ana discovers Christian Grey's secrets and explores her own dark desires.
This book is intended for mature audiences.
Excerpted from Fifty Shades of Grey (Movie Tie-in Edition) by E L James. Copyright © 2015 by E L James. Excerpted by permission of Vintage, a division of Random House LLC. All rights reserved. No part of this excerpt may be reproduced or reprinted without permission in writing from the publisher.
E L James is a former TV executive, wife, and mother of two based in the leafy suburbs of West London. Beginning in January 2012 her life took an extraordinary turn with the runaway success of her novels, the Fifty Shades Trilogy. Since early childhood she dreamed of writing stories that readers would fall in love with, and now, thanks to millions of readers around the world, that dream has come true. She is currently at work on her next novel, another adult, provocative romance.
1. The voice of Ana's "inner goddess" is a distinct presence throughout the novel. Does it have a positive or negative influence on Ana? Is the inner goddess simply her subconscious? Or does it represent something else? Does every woman have an inner goddess?
2. How important is music in Fifty Shades of Grey? What does Christian's appreciation of music—for all genres—say about him? [Visit 50Shades.com for playlists created by the author and inspired by the Fifty Shades trilogy.]
3. When they first meet, Christian tells Ana that he follows a guiding principal from Andrew Carnegie: "A man who acquires the ability to take full possession of his own mind may take possession of anything else to which he is justly entitled." What insight does this provide into his character? And does it foreshadow events in the novel?
4. Is Ana's relationship with Christian empowering? Do you think it's in any way demeaning?
5. If you've read Tess of the d'Urbervilles, how does Ana's story parallel Tess's? Ana describes Tess as a woman "in the wrong place at the wrong time in the wrong century." Is Ana able to exert more control over her own life and act as an independent woman in ways that Tess could not?
6. What is the basis of Ana's attraction to Christian? Is there an allure in the fact that beneath his ultra-confident exterior Christian is a damaged and vulnerable soul? Is Ana motivated by a desire to "fix" him or save him from his personal demons? Have you ever been in a relationship like this?
7. Why do you think this story has captivated so many readers? Is it the fairy tale aspect of the story? Do women really just want a man who will sweep them off their feet and take control in the bedroom? If you agree, why do you think that's true?
8. Would you ever sign a contract like the one Christian presents to Ana?
9. Is Ana's innocence and naiveté believable? Is Christian just a fictitious ideal with his perfect body ("the Adonis, divinely formed"), intelligence, and sexual prowess? How does José compare? What archetype does he represent? What about Elliott?
10. What do you think of the ending? Does Ana stand up for herself? Is the situation they find themselves in—where Ana realizes she can't give Christian what he needs and he admits he can't love her the way she wants—something you can relate to?

Happy Birthday, Billy Joel!!!
Thursday, May 9, 2013
Happy Birthday to Billy Joel, who turns 64 today (May 9th). With two recent festival shows under his belt at Australia's Stone Music Festival and the New Orleans Jazz Fest, Billy Joel fans are waiting to see what his next move will be. Billy, who hasn't toured since 2010, went on record as stating that he's considering a series of full-album shows in major U.S. cities in the near future. August 10th will mark the 20th anniversary since the "Piano Man" released his last studio rock album, River Of Dreams. The album, which peaked at Number One on the Billboard 200, featured the Top Three hit -- and Billy's last Top Ten hit to date -- "The River Of Dreams."
In early 2011, Billy made headlines when he canceled the publication of his memoir, The Book Of Joel. The completed book -- co-written with former Rolling Stone writer Fred Schruers -- was due to be published in June 2011 by HarperCollins. Joel sold the rights to the autobiography for $3 million and promised never-before-known anecdotes about his music and personal life -- including his split from second wife Christie Brinkley, and his long battles with substance abuse.
After deciding to pull the book, Billy issued a statement to The Associated Press which read: "It took working on writing a book to make me realize that I'm not all that interested in talking about the past, and that the best expression of my life and its ups and downs has been and remains my music."
Although Billy is known as one of the top musicians in all of rock, he says that his musical limitations could actually be responsible for helping him creating his greatest songs: "I never really applied myself the way I should. I never practiced my scales. I'm limited, and in a way, I think my limitations have helped me as a pop music writer. Sometimes I'll paint myself into a corner, and I don't know how to get out, so I just come up with my own solution to get myself out of that corner. And that, in a way, is what may make my material original."
The late Phil Ramone was Billy's closest musical confidante, and produced such classic multi-platinum albums for Billy as The Stranger, 52nd Street, Glass Houses, Songs In The Attic, The Nylon Curtain, An Innocent Man, and The Bridge. He told us shortly before he died earlier this year that Billy's a multifaceted man: "But, y'know, he's a wonderful animal. He's just so smart. And of course he comes of playing this tough Long Island kid -- which is part of his background -- but the rest of him is just amazing. He's an amazing guy. Extremely intelligent and well read."
Despite his fans clamoring for a new album, Billy says that he's happy touring and playing his greatest hits, but is equally content quietly writing instrumental music: "I guess these days I just think of myself as a classical composer. I have a piano at home and I write classical pieces -- I don't ever wanna call it classical pieces, it's piano music. They could be used for an orchestra, some of these things might end up being used for a movie soundtrack. I'm not even all that anxious to have them performed. Right now all I'm interested is just composing."
Wings drummer Denny Seiwell produced the early sessions for Billy's 1971 solo debut Cold Spring Harbor. He recalls being amazed at his talent years before the rest of the world discovered "Billy Joel": "I started producin' Billy out in Long Island. All I remember was Billy was just awesome. He was phenomenal. In fact one night we were having a problem, we couldn't get him to -- he really had unbelievable piano chops and we couldn't get him to slow this (sings piano riff). He wouldn't slow down, so we said, 'How 'bout we get you a bottle of booze, man?' So we got him a bottle of gin (laughs), and he sat it on the piano bench and he just started sluggin' away at this thing. We said, 'Just let him chill out for a little while. We'll slow him down.' And the more he drank, the faster he got!"
Over the past decade, Billy's problems with alcohol popped up frequently in the press, resulting in his last stay at the Betty Ford Clinic in 2005. Two years before that, he appeared on NBC's Dateline and spoke candidly about his relationship with the bottle: "I can abuse alcohol if the demons get me. I'll go on a bender. It's happened to me before. That's why I went into rehab, I was on a binge, I was on a bender. And I said 'This is stupid, I've got to stop.' Then I went and I did stop and I've learned to recognize what those signs are."
Billy was asked what gig out of the thousands that he's played meant the most to him: "First gig I ever did where I got paid, I was in a band. I was 15-years-old. I played at Holy Family Church in Hicksville. I thought we sounded great. Maybe we sucked, but I thought we sounded great, and then at the end of the night the priest gave us 15 bucks apiece, which in 1964 was, like, I don't know, 1,500 dollars."

5 Who He?PorkyPrimechop | 04/03/2008 | See all PorkyPrimechop's reviews (9)Somehow, he retains his identity even though I hear Lou Reed, David Byrne, Mark E Smith, Leonard Cohen and even Neil Diamond(Jesus of the Moon)and of course Bob Dylan among others in his intonation. Furthermore, there are no musical styles that remain un-plundered, making a fruitful landscape that relieves the generally dark nature of the songs. A landmark album which I think people will mark as a beacon in their musical experiences.
5 Bow down before his geniusEldiablozine | 02/03/2008 | See all Eldiablozine's reviews (72)Top 100 Music Reviewer I've pre-ordered this, but there is a preview of the whole album on myspace and I'm jumping in early to say that it's outstanding.It sounds like Saint Nick has taken all the best aspects of his Grinderman project and occupied some territory between what he was doing with that, and where he feels comfortable with his Bad Seed cohorts.On the title track I felt a heavy Patti Smith (Horses era) vibe, while elsewhere it's just a gonzo biblical road trip filtered through some raw garage sounds. Did I say it was outstanding? Yeah? Well live with it as I may even say it again very soon.I've been a fan for many a year of Mr Caves output, and I'm rarely disappointed.Over the last decade he has really hit an artistic stride that few could match. With each release I end up gape jawed and incredulous at just how good it is. Then I harbour insidious thoughts that worm away whispering that he must fail with his next endeavour. That no one can keep pushing forward as he does without stumbling at some point. Then the blighter just appears to rattle out another classic without as much as breaking a sweat.I reckon he was down at the crossroads striking a bargain. Artistic expression and critical success in exchange for his soul.I'm going to shout down the whispers this time. His next album is bound to be a killer. I should have more faith.Okay. It's time to say it's outstanding again.
5 Keeps on doing it.Midget14 | 20/04/2008 | See all Midget14's reviews (178)Nick Cave somehow keeps on making great music year after year. In an age where most bands are done by their third or fourth release NC & his bad seeds maintain an astonishing consistency.At first listen I felt that 'Dig Lazarus Dig' was another good, solid collection of songs but not a genuine classic. On second, third and fourth listen I discovered that I was wrong. This is a fantastic CD packed with raw energy and emotion that improves with each listen.If you're a Nick Cave fan then what are you waiting for it go out and buy it? If you're new to Nick's output buy this, give it a few listens and then delve into the back catalogue.
5 How Does He Do It?Tupelo70 | 07/03/2008 | See all Tupelo70's reviews (1)His 14th album,so i`ve been told and yet again it fails to disapoint. Everything you want and expect.Nick in his 50th year, improving with age? No just as good as he`s always been and the Bad Seeds, Fantastic. Buy and enjoy.
5 utterly tip topstanhampton | 06/03/2008 | See all stanhampton's reviews (3)beauty, energy and fun, everything you'd ever want in an album. nick just gets better and better.

Shoulder replacement is surgery to replace the bones of the shoulder joint with artificial joint parts.
You will receive anesthesia before this surgery. Two types of anesthesia can be used:
The shoulder is a ball and socket joint. The round end of the arm bone fits into the opening at the end of the shoulder blade, called the socket. This type of joint allows you to move your arm in most directions.
For total shoulder replacement, the round end of your arm bone will be replaced with an artificial stem that has a rounded metal head. The socket part (glenoid) of your shoulder blade will be replaced with a smooth plastic shell (lining) that will be held in place with a special cement. If only 1 of these 2 bones needs to be replaced, the surgery is called a partial shoulder replacement, or a hemiarthroplasty.
For shoulder joint replacement, your surgeon will make an incision (cut) over your shoulder joint to open up the area. Then your surgeon will:
Your surgeon may place a tube in this area to drain fluid that may build up in the joint. The drain will be removed when you no longer need it.
This surgery usually takes 1 - 3 hours.
Total shoulder arthroplasty; Endoprosthetic shoulder replacement; Partial shoulder replacement; Partial shoulder arthroplasty; Replacement - shoulder; Arthroplasty - shoulder
Shoulder replacement surgery is usually done when you have severe pain in the shoulder area, which limits your ability to move your arm. Causes of shoulder pain include:
Your doctor may not recommend this surgery if you have:
Risks of any anesthesia are:
Risk of any surgery are:
Risks of shoulder replacement surgery are:
Tell your doctor or nurse what medicines you are taking. This includes medicines, supplements, or herbs you bought without a prescription.
During the 2 weeks before your surgery:
On the day of your surgery:
Shoulder replacement surgery relieves pain and stiffness for most people. You should be able to resume your normal daily activities without much problem. Many people are able to return to sports such as golf, swimming, gardening, bowling, and others.
Your new shoulder joint will last longer if less stress is placed on it. With normal use, a new shoulder joint can last for at least 10 years.

Heatsinks aren't a novel energy efficient type of washing bowl, they are parts that are placed on high powered IC packages to help remove the heat more effectively and thus lower the operating temperature of the package which in turn increases reliability, can improve performance etc. etc. Such approaches are observed in nature, from Elephants ears to the low sun apparent surface area of homo erectus. … Read More

White Parker Curtain
Gorgeous Curtains
Was looking for something fresh and crisp to add brightness to our living room. These definitely exceeded my expectations for the price! Weight is nice, soft linen texture adds dimension without too much detail and the color is a clean white. Two thumbs up!
January 7, 2014
very happy
i love the color and feel of these curtains. the crisp white leaves a light, airy feel while the medium-heaviness of the 100% cotton makes the room feel insulated and cozy. they just lighten my mood every time i see them. they did arrive in the mail with a couple of small smudges but i'm guessing those will come out in the wash. i'm so happy with this purchase.

Love these!
I bought 4 to hang over a sliding glass door, I wanted privacy but needed something that let in light, Perfect, loved them so much I ordered 6 more for the living room windows. The drape on these is gorgeous. They are washable and I wonder how they will do in the machine.
July 15, 2013
Beautiful choice
They look great in my new house! I hung with bamboo roman shades. It's very beachy and timeless.

Reasonably priced but wrinkles when washed
The Parker Curtains were reasonably priced for the texture, till I washed these. The directions read machine wash cold and line dry. Well I hung dry these on the rods but now these are wrinkled. I HATE ironing and will either get a hand-steamer or dry clean for the next wash. Next time I'd buy a polyester blend. I only do not recommend for those who hate ironing or who prefer to machine wash.

Fabric is heavy, but cheap.
This curtain is made of a fabric similar to canvas. It's heavy, but certainly does not look expensive or luxurious. For almost $40 a curtain, I expect a much higher quality product than what I was given. The grommets are nice and heavy.
Unfortunately, I've got to buy two more because they weren't wide enough for my windows and I've already committed to the first two curtains. It dos look like they'd be able to be dyed fairly easily if you're looking to do a custom color.

The* three divisions of the News board were represented. Nancy Evarts, Editor-in-Chief, spoke on the aims and functions of the Sews on campus. Alice Ise- man, Copy Editor, described some of the problems confronting the cx Sews and the possibilities of sur- mounting them, while Elizabeth Watkins, of the Editorial Board, stated the importance of freedom of the Press in the results accom- plished by college editorials. Nancy Scribner outlined the function of the Sews off-campus, and Louise Horwood presented a picture of the activity of the Business Board. Three speeches on the Sews in action were also given. "To convey a complete idea of the Sews," said Miss Evarts, "we should have to produce an issue here for you." These speeches described the actual production. Jessie Stone read a freshman's unbiased description of the Sews office, and Alison Merrill pictured the Editorial Board at work. Edith Dent did the same for the Subscription Board. Referring to the Editorial policy, Nancy Evarts emphasized the fact that the Sews is primarily the en- tire College's medium of expres- sion. She also stressed the impor- tance of such expression in stimu- Contimted on Page Four Undergraduate Ass'n Sponsors War Chest Drive at Bryn Mawr Specially contributed by the Undergraduate Association Board This Sunday, January 24th, Philadelphia, opens a drive for the United War Chest. Every person in college will be asked to con- tribute�the faculty, graduate and undergraduate students, the maids and porters, and members of the staff. Give all that you can and realize the enormous difference this work makes to people whom the war has affected directly. We ex- pect one hundred percent support and look on this drive as one de- manding giving which is also giv- ing up. This is the only drive to be conducted on the campus this college year for war relief. It is unquestionably the most direct way to support organiza- tions you want active as never be- fore. Your money will go to: 1. Chinese, British, Greek, Rus- sian, Polish and Dutch War Re- lief, in the form of mobile kitch- ens, food, clothing, medical sup- plies, ambulances and aid to war prisoners. 2.

Dr. Frank to Return As Flexner Lecturer The first of six Flexner lectures on Philosophy and Religion will be given by Dr. Erich Frank, dis- tinguished German scholar, on Monday, February 8, at 8:30 in Goodhart Auditorium. Dr. Frank has lectured at Bryn Mawr before, during the second semester of 1939-1940. His lectures were so popular that they increased in attendance to the extent that they had to be moved from the Music Room to Goodhart Auditor- ium. During his residence on cam- pus Dr. Frank also conducted a Seminary on Aristotle. He lectured at Swarthmore the same year, and from there went to Harvard, where he was given a professorship in the Philosophy Department. Dr. Frank has written a book on the relation of Plato to Pytho- gorean philosophy, which is con- sidered the foremost work in the field, and which is referred to in histories of philosophy as the out- standing authority. In addition to the Flexner lec- tures he will conduct informal dis- cussions on contemporary German philosophy, particularly in rela- tion to Jaspers, one of the expo- nents of the so-called "Existence Philosophy." Choice Announced Friday; Miller Admits Feeling Dazed JOHN C. MILLER Wilson Lauds Joyce As Poet, Dramatist In Finnegan's Wake "James Joyce is the greatest poet, the greatest imaginative dramatist since the great poets� Virgil, Dante, and Shakespeare," stated Mr. Edmund Wilson in his lecture on Finnegan's Wake at Haverford College, on January 15th. Mr. Wilson, who was com- mended by Joyce for his review of the final version of the book, ex- plained the pattern of the book with its themes and motives and its significance in literature as the fullest expression of Joyce's lyrical genius. "Joyce believed that the con- sciousness of one man includes the potentialities of everything man has ever been or done," explained Mr. Wilson. Joyce presented this theory in the form of man's dream which carries the three themes of sleeping and waking, sinning and redemption, and dying and resur- rection. The dream consists of two lines of thought. One tells the story of the dreamer, H. L. Earwicker's family, which, like all of Joyce's other stories, is the study of family relations through internal dynam- ics. The other is the mythology which contains the whole history of Continued or Paste Three Seznec Will Discuss Gods in Middle Ages Mr. Jean Seznec, a member of the Department of French at Har- vard, is scheduled to speak on Saturday, February 6 at 8:15 o'clock in the Common Room. His subject will concern the gods of antiquity as they survived in the Middle Ages in Europe. A recognized scholar,' Mr. Seznec came to Harvard last year, having taught previously at the Institute Francaise in Florence. He is also on the staff of the Ecole des Hautet Etudes in New York City. The lecture is sponsored by the Depart- ment of French of Bryn Mawr. French Club to Give 18th Century Comedy The play, le Jeu de I'Amour et du Hasard, by Marivaux, will be presented by the French Club on March 19 in Goodhart Hall. This will be the first major production by the French Club for many yeafrs. The play is an eighteenth century comedy. The plot centers on a mar- riage arranged by parents who are friends but whose children are un- acquainted. The couple, in order to find out if the marriage will lje one of love or convenience, ex- change identities with their ser- vants, each one's plan unknown to the other. The result is a series of humorous and confusing situa- tions. The committee which selected the play included: Florence Senger, Emily Tuck, Therese Exton, Lor- een Pirrung, Nina Garsoian, Fran- coise Pleven, and Mimi Boal. The cast of the play is yet to be selected. Among its selections for the next few months, the Book-of-the-Month Club has chosen The Origins of the American Revolution, by Mr. John Chester Miller, assistant pro- fessor of American History' at Bryn Mawr. The book, published by Little, Brown and Company, is Mr. Miller's second. His first one was Sow Adams, published in 1936. The judges announced the selection last Friday, but they have not yet decided whether the book will be presented to members as a Book- of-the-Month or as a dividend. Mr. Miller believes that its choice as a dividend is more likely. The publisher notified the author of the club's recognition on Fri- day, and Mr. Miller admits that he hasn't felt quite rational since then. In fact, he said, "I am in a daze and expect to wake up soon to find whether it was a dream." When he does, he plans to cele- brate the occasion. "Maybe I'll go to the movies tonight." Because his appointment at Bryn Mawr was his first teaching one, he says, he spent the first year and a half of his career here learning how to lecture. But he continued to work with the ideas for his book and tried them out on the students both here and at Northwestern University. He worked with his material so much that he "practically wrote it down with his unconscious mind." Bryn Mawr, ho declares, is an ideal place to write a book, as the faculty member here has an tie opportunity for his own wo-k. Mr. Miller is planning a th'.rJ book on the war years of the revo- lution, 1776-1783, but he hastens to add that he does not want to be rushed into another book, as so many authors are. He feels that six years is the minimum amount of time for writing a book of this type. Then, only, he says, is the author really able to try out his ideas. His present Book-of-the-Month selection was completed in July, 1942, and he spent about six years writing it. Its choice as a dividend would entail less remuneration than its acceptance as an actual Book-of-the-Month. but a scholarly book is more likely to be a dividend to club members. Exhibiting com- mendable modesty, Mr. Miller re- marked that, in any case, the honor was more than he had any right to expect. onDraniatie,Lvrie Lyric as Scene and Agent, Dramatic as Action Discussed "The dramatic ia the relation of scene and action, while the lyric is the relation of scene and agent." said Mr. Kenneth Burke in his lec- ture on "The Dramatic and the Lyrical," in the Music Room on January 18. Mr. Burke based this differentiation on observations of human relations and on a theory of action. The first part of the lecture de- scribed his approach to the prob- lem and definition of terms. Using the dramatic as a basic, Mr. Burke worked out the five words�act. Kene, agent, agency and purpose. "These are the basis of human re- lations and whatever your philos- ophy is, you will have to handle these five things," he declared. Materialism stresses scene, ideal- ism stresses agent, pragmatism stresses agency, and mysticism stresses purpose. Two great pairs are formed from these five terms. One pair is the scene and action. The integration of these terms, when the quality of the scene contains the quality of the action, form the dramatic. When action exterminates motion, it is behaviouristic and the dra- matic is destroyed. The end of O'Neill's play, Mourning Becomes Electro, was cited as an example. The other pair is scene and Continued on Pane Fmii Woolcott and Laylin Discuss Journalism Opportunities for women on ��( w papers and magazines were i cussed afrthe Vocational Confer- ence held Saturday in the Deanery. Speakers were Miss Joan Woolcott of the Philadelphia Evening Bulle- tin, Mrs. John Laylin of Time Mag- azine, and Mr. Wells, Professor of Politics at Bryn Mawr. A history major at Swarthmore, Miss Woolcott now writes feature articles for the woman's page of the Bulletin. A general college edu- cation including subjects such as history, economics, English and Government is the best prepara- tion for a newspaper job, Miss Woolcott said.

Failure of Evening Mail Causes Comment; New Motto is "All Pick-Up and No Delivery" By Anne Denny, '43 "Neither rain nor hail nor sleet nor snow shall stay..." but the climate at Bryn Mawr College is beyond the pale, even for these faithful couriers. Whether the icy blasts of Pembroke Arch or the quicksands of Senior Row discour- aged the mailman, we do not know �but the millennium arrived on Tuesday, January nineteenth. The mail did not come through. "Do you really mean that there is no mail for anybody in the whole college?" This awful thought descended upon the pre-exam gloom. Even the vicarious pleas- ure of seeing who gets mail snd who gets free mail is denied us these cold days. We are totally unpopular. Then the cloud was considerably cleared by the rumor that the postmaster just forgot. After all he remembers the little girls on the other side of the rail- road tracks three times a day every other day in the year. Why, we ask, should January nineteenth be a significant holi- day? What is there about this day, of all days? It seemed per- fectly normal when we gazed at the greying sky at nine o'clock in the mo"rning.

'Accordion Ensemble'
19 February 2011
'Accordion Ensemble'
Cape Town. Departure.
Woke up overwhelmed by the joy of knowing I'd managed to avoid staying up til dawn drinking whiskey. I can only imagine what I'd feel like now if I hadn't bailed when I did last night.
Most of our touring party have evening flights out of here today, so we have a good part of the day to ourselves. I was determined to finally see something more than the stadium, the hotel & the nearby waterfront so had planned to spend the day with a couple of friends who live here part-time. Marius Muller-Westernhagen is a German rock musician who has enjoyed a long and enormously successful career. He has only ever written & performed in German, which has made him much adored within German-language territories whilst remaining almost totally unknown without. His wife is a New Yorker and they divide their time between Berlin and Cape Town. I've known them both for a few years now and they'd promised to take me out today so I could actually experience some colour colour. They took me to the Old Biscuit Mill, which is a large mixed-use, post-industrial premises housing an open-air market that was absolutely rammed on this sunny lunchtime. We walked and explored, finding something to eat en route and I very much enjoyed taking it all in. There were lots of market stalls, artisans, small businesses and a huge amount of food vendors of all descriptions, with tables and seats scattered about the place. We even came across an accordion ensemble playing Supertramp covers which, I confess, I had not expected.
I can't tell you how pleasant it was to be out and about mixing with civilians, especially with the shows behind us so that even I wouldn't be able to come up with a reason to be doing any work. There was also another oddity that lent a uniqueness to the occasion. Apparently there is a large German-speaking community in Cape Town, a statistic confirmed by Marius constantly being photographed as we walked through the market. The specificity of celebrity could not have been more clearly illustrated, how a person can be simultaneously adored and ignored in a mixed-demographic crowd. It was fascinating to witness.
The rest of our day included a trip up to Signal Hill, which affords a view of the whole of Cape Town, and also to the wonderfully randomly-named Llandudno Beach, presumably first colonised by the Welsh in days of yore. By the time my hosts returned me to the Hotel Preposterous I really felt like I'd had a day out.
Meanwhile back in my real life, packing awaited and a final poolside gathering to make the most of the last sunshine we're likely to see this side of arriving in Chile. Dec told me he'd met a group of punters in the local Belgian bar (they knew who he was, which is scary) who told him that their favourite moment of last night's show was Fez, which rather made my day.
Vans, airport, check-in, passports, the usual routine as Team 360 begins to fragment, its members beginning to become individuals again. Night flight, no under-fives apparent, but ear-plugs inserted, just in case.

German connection
Dear Willie, thank you for all your wonderful diary entries! Your great descriptions truly make me travel to so many different and colourful places in my imagination. I am sure that the big accordion ensemble created a huge sound! Before reading this story I did not know that there is such a large German-speaking community in Cape Town. This city must be an amazing place that connects different cultures. I am also amazed by the fact that Marius Mueller-Westernhagen is such a big celebrity there. As an Austrian I know him of course, because he is also quite famous in my country. One of his most moving songs is called "Freiheit" ("Freedom"), which he performed live after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

belgian bar
if you have Belgians and a Belgian bar in the same city, they are bound to unite! I had miss Brazil, miss Swiss and miss US thinking Duvel is a light beer. They were blissfully unaware of the fact that I was talking about the colour and not the alcoholpercentage. They found out soon enough tho'. Don't be scared, we only knew who he was because someone introduced us. We saw you a couple of days earlier but knowing how you hate to be recognised, we thought it was best to pretend you weren't there. and yeah, we LOVED hearing Fez! surprises like that are the things we thrive on. Please, do keep 'm coming :)

Me, too...I just particularly noticed it today on one of the NHL Network's commercials. At least they've introduced a new one into the lineup, I guess.
A lot of TV's used to have a function that senses volume changes on commercials and will tone them down. Doesn't work with a satelite receiver or cable box though. Haven't bought a new TV in ~5 years, so I don't know if that's still an option though.
My TV has that option (it's about a month old), but it definitely doesn't work through the cable box. I'm thinking I'm just going to go the whole nine and set up speakers, etc., so I have a little more control over the sound (I'm also getting crap volume levels from the cable box, and my living room is noisy anyway because the aquarium's in it.)

A catwalk adds drama in the lobby.
shalom baranes associates, washington, d.c.
Located in a historic Washington, D.C., neighborhood where automobile showrooms were standard streetscape fixtures, Langston Lofts' scale, rhythm, and materiality put a contemporary spin on the area's industrial past. Our judges gave the project high marks for its "gorgeous detailing" and "highly articulated façade."
The sleek finished project belies the complex engineering challenge the architects had to overcome. The building site is atop two subway tunnels, posing an enormous structural problem, says principal in charge Robert M. Sponseller, AIA. The design team resolved the issue by building a light-gauge-steel structure on top of a deep-foundation concrete plinth, parking garage, and first-floor retail space.
Large glass openings and balconies of perforated industrial mesh maximize light penetration into the 45-foot-deep units. Inside the lofts, bedrooms are raised, removing impediments to light and creating views over the kitchen.

"Great Medium-Full, Fantastic Cigar"
Purchased this cigar because I am (and always have been) a huge fan of maduros. Not only is this one of the best maduros I have ever smoked, it is overall one of the best cigars I have ever smoked. The flavor is consistent throughout, but many aspect of the flavor vary throughout. The beginning of the smoke was on the sweet side, and as it progressed into the 2nd third a delicious spiciness began to come through. The final third, and the end of the cigar, brought through a deep, rich coffee flavor. Throughout the entire smoke, the cigar built upon itself; I was hooked from beginning to end.

"One of the best cigars in the world. YUMMY!"
FSS clssified this as full. It's not. It's one of the most fantastic Medium cigars I have ever smoked. Much better than the Gloria Cubana serie R maduro. Which is a full cigar. I rate it a 94.

"Top Dra! Hell of a surprise! My new Favorite"
I have tried so many cigars and not had one has ever surprised me in the way that this one has. I am seldom moved to want to write a review but this one has gotten me out of my easy chair to go to the computer in order to give praise to this cigar. I tried both the robusto as well as the rothschild because I smoke outside and need a short cigar for the winter. I am making this my favorite. I will serve these to my best company.

"My new favorite cigar!"
Before smoking this cigar I would of rated the regular St. Luis Rey cigar as my favorite, but this one even exceeded that! Beautiful construction, draw, taste, smoke, everything you could possibly ask for! To top it all, my wife says that it smelled pretty good (which is saying a lot). This is a must have in your humidor!

"Better than GREAT"
Im very fussy when it comese to cigars, but i went to J&R cigar store and the clerk said to try St. Luis Rey series G Rothchilde and it was fantastic, the burn was great, full flavor and not over powering. it was one of the best cigars i smoked in a long time, try it you will be glad you did.

"Great Smoke"
This is one of the best sticks I ever had. Great construction and draw. Nice white ash. Wapper is dark oily and tasty. Same taste from beginning to end.

George Allen enters Blueberry Hill resturant in University City, Missouri on November 14, 2012, for a bite, hours after being released from state prison. Allen 56, has spent the last 30 years in prison for the 1982 rape and murder of Mary Bell, whose body was found inside her St. Louis home in 1982. At the time of the crime, DNA testing was not available. Allen was picked up by police because he looked like another suspect they wanted to talk to. After questioning by detectives, he confessed. There was no physical evidence like fingerprints presented to the jury that linked Allen to the crime. UPI/Bill Greenblatt

It's a lot easier to kill somebody with a semi Auto sniper rifle from grate distance. & not be stopped withing 1 or two shots.
( thus being able to kill large numbers from a roof top ) Than it is to kill large numbers of people with a shot gun that need to be reloaded every few shots ....... thus allowing the cops / security to subdue the assailant, before any more people are killed.
It's a bit hard to lay down suppression fire' from a roof top or from behind a car from within a house. or from a dirt mound or book depository, if all you have is a hand gun or double barrel shot gun.

PICK YOUR .COMMITTEE a/>'v Hi Ciil'iiati. * "May day is next year and next year is May day.*' said Alice Palaclie, ncwly- elected president of the Undergraduate Association, when we asked her about her [Jans and policy for next year. The most important thing, according to Miss Palaclie. is to avoid "the dis- ease of over-organization." to simplify the machinery as much as possible. Mrs. Collins and Miss Appleliee will he i! the head, with the students working in close co-operation with them. It is planned to have one person in charge of each play, who will be responsible for everything connected with it. The com- mittee, instead of being elected in a more or less haphazard way. will be appointed, after careful consideration and discus- sion. And it is hoped that during the first semester people will show what they can do and what they are interested in�that they will ask "May I be on this committee?" so that each person may be doing what she is best fitted for and will most enjoy. "We want to stress the creative side of May day," Miss Palaclie went on, "to set ourselves a higher ideal of historical accuracy than ever before." As Miss Applebee says, "all the shoes and head- dresses right." It has been suggested that the whole performance center more on Queen Elizabeth, who has always been pretty much of a lay figure: that for example it might reproduce her visit to Oxford, and that she go about from play to play. The plans also include hav- ing more. music and certain new fea- tures such as trick riding. "No one can say enough," Miss Pal- aclie said at this point, "in praise of Miss Applebee's enthusiasm and wealth of valuable ideas and practical suggestions. And in Mr. King we have an authority on Shakespearean plays and their pro- duction, whose foundation of knowledge and mastery .of his .subject make him invaluable. "With the organization simplified, and with everyone working together for it in a spirit of generous co-operaiton, w. may hope to have a grand May day." Mi^s Palache concluded. We believe that it will be a grand May day. and due in no small measure to Miss Palache hersel f. Josephine Young, newly-elected head of the Self Government Association, when approached by a representative of The News, declared that she had noth- ing to say for publication. � Laurels for Laura * Bryn Mawr is being represented at'the Intercollegiate'Poetry Con- test by Laura Margaret Haley, '28.

We listened for it with fear and tremb- ling�we knew that we would think about Elmer Gantry, if we were a minister, and we felt a vicarious sensitiveness about hearing it. They had just the opinions we expected, too. Dr. Carter of the Church of the Re- deemer said that he had not read it, and that as long as he had the Bible, he did not need it. "It is lying on my study table now," said Dr. Mutch, "and for all of me it will continue to lie there.

"Would you mind," we said, for all the world as if we liked doing it, "would you mind telling us why you came to�I mean, what you think of Bryn Mawr?" He looked at us wearily, (and indeed it was a long way to look). "Bryn Mawr." he said," is the first college I have ever seen." We stared in awe. "I have been very much interested in everything I have seen and heard, par- ticularly in your lectures. They seemed to me fascinating." We looked at him. shed a tear and murmured, "Et ego Ml Arcadia." but we persisted. "Tell usj some more about ourselves*" we satd simply. "Well," said the young man, "! think education is very important and that here in Ameri-a you do a great deal toward it." We tried to tell him that we personally had done about 16 years and he would not listen. We cast about for a more interesting topic. We found it. "What," we said, "do you think of American girls?" His hat was off, but he swept the ground with it. "Madam," he said, "they have con- firmed me in my high opinion of my judgment.

DO HAS . The American School of Classical Studies at Athens is an old friend of Bryn Mawr College. The late Joseph Clark lloppin. for example, for many years pvofessor of archaeology at Bryn Mawr. was a former student of the school and also in 1904-190."> its annual director. He had helped to excavate the Argive Heraeum, and used to enliven his lectures at Bryn Mawr with many a tale of his days of digging and travel ing in Greece. But recently the ties which unite the two institutions have become even closer. Miss Dorothy Burr returned last year to Bryn Mawr after two years of study at the Athens School, where she had held first a Bryn Mawr fellowship and then PRAISES NATURALNESS a fellowship which is granted by the School at Athens on the basis of com-' had the courage to keep his secret s< lly /:'. WALTON, 'tj For the past three winters rumorsTiave been current in Xew York of a new phenomenon at Bryn Mawr known as Varsitq Dramatics. Scouts, dispatched- by the anxious Alumnae, have brought hack reports which whetted rather than satisfied curiosity. The necessity for a first-hand judgment was indicated. The opportunity came last Saturday night at the Colony Club when the Var- sity Dramatic Association presented "The Truth About Blayds," by A. A. Milne. For the benefit of the New York Alumnae Scholarship Fund. The verdict returned was favorable. Not even the most jaundiced young Alumna, making critical comparison with her memories of class plays, could fail to admit that the performance was lightly handled and entertaining, that the acting level of the cast was high, and the play judicially chosen in spite of its prepon- derance of middle-aged or wholly de- crepit characters. A curious situation exists in "The Truth About Blayds." The old poet, so startlingly proved an impostor, is at the heart of all the action, and yet he ap- pears only for a scant fifteen minutes. In that brief space, after a dramatically prepared entrance, he must reveal his quality to the audience. M. Villard Too Pathetic As Oliver Blayds. Marquita Villard was frail and tremulous and deliberate. She really created tire illusion of an an- cient Victorian whose rich memories are pitiably near an end, but she seemed to miss the chances for sly. impish humor inherent in the part. Her Oliver Blayds was not the gallant, shrewd im|M>stcr who The recognized inferiority of men in sartorial matters is nowadays a hack- neyed topic for our journalists in* search of inspiration. We heard the other day from a Paris newspaper correspondent that the Gallic tailors are reviving eigh- teenth century silk stockings and breeches for the men whose anger is rbused when they see�and cannot, at the risk of hurting the pride of the displayer, pre- tend not to see�legs much inferior in figure and beauty to their own. But in that rdspect as in many others, the most unfortunate of all male beings are professors in a women's college. How fondly do they regret the old custom of lecturing in an academic gown that was enough to inpsire their listeners with reverence. One of the most delicate and harrowing problems for them is how to dress. Students will arrive at their 8 o'clock lectures in once white tennis shoes and woolen stockings, holding in one hand a powder puff and concealing with the other a half-eaten banana or apple that will sustain the,m until the 11 o'clock sandwich; Jhc poor instructor, while shaving has been meditating upon the suit and the tic that will best fit the weather and the subject he is going to expound. He still imagines�let him re- gain his illusions�that all eyes will be fjpa-d upon him and that the cut of his clbthes, the material of his tic and the brushing of "his rebellious hair will be commented upon�and who knows?� admired by students weary of counting how many times an hour his pet phrases and words recur. Uniformity is certainly what charac- terises the clothes of the men of the Bryn Mawr faculty. Is it because so many original minds know too well that their garb could never reveal the best that is in them? Or is strict conformity our American ideal and do even our elite suffer from what Meredith termed "the malady of sameness, our modern malady"? Solier color and high-brow gravity of the cut is the rule. It is usu- ally linked with the senator-like gait and the slow, painstaking delivery of speech which our meditative profession devel- ops. Even Scotch humor, absent-minded philosophy and passionate music con- form, with only timid differences, to the common standard. VONTINUED ON PAGE 4 petiiive examinations.
