Smokeless tobacco - stop smoking programs; Stop smoking techniques; Smoking cessation programs; Smoking cessation techniques
It is hard to quit smoking if you are acting alone. Smokers may have a much better chance of quitting with a support program. Stop smoking programs are offered by hospitals, health departments, community centers, work sites, and national organizations.
You can find out about smoking cessation programs from:
The best smoking cessation programs combine numerous approaches and target the fears and problems you have when quitting. They also provide ongoing support for staying away from tobacco.
Be wary of programs that:
Telephone-based help
Telephone-based services can help you design a stop smoking program that meets your needs. These services are easy to use. The counselors can help you avoid common mistakes. This kind of support can be as effective as face-to-face counseling.
Telephone programs are often available on nights and weekends. Trained counselors will help you set up a support network for quitting and help you decide which stop smoking aids to use. Choices may include:
Support groups
Let your friends, family, and coworkers know of your plans to stop smoking and your quit date. It helps for people around you to be aware of what you're going through -- especially when you are grumpy.
You may also want to seek out other types of support, such as:
Stop smoking programs and classes
Stop smoking programs can also help you find a quitting method that suits your needs. They will help you be aware of problems that come up while you're trying to quit and offer tools to cope with these problems. These programs can help you avoid making common mistakes.
Programs may either have one-on-one sessions or group counseling. Some programs offer both. Programs should be run by counselors who are trained to help people quit smoking.
Programs that provide more sessions or longer sessions have a better chance of success. The American Cancer Society recommends programs like the following:
Internet-based programs are also becoming more available. These services send you personalized reminders using e-mail, texting, or other methods.

I'm surprised this has not been an active subject through his trial. Certainly an issue that has strong political positions, and emotions that are not consistent with the laws. Thankfully, for the most part demonstrations have been peaceful.
I find it interesting that in San Francisco being such a liberal capital of the country, on one hand they have the Constitutional right position down pat concerning Gay marriage, but in this protest, seem to not know the real application of the laws. Maybe they are just good at exploiting the emotional side of any law, without regard to how the actual laws read.
While tragic in every respect, GZ had the fine edge of the law on his side, but I think he is pegged 100% right, a wannabee cop, who disregarded orders from the police, and his own neighborhood watch manual, not to engage him. Trevon was just a 17 year old being a 17 year old, going down to the store, and sensed he was being followed and stalked, walking in the rain in the dark. Why a homeowners association would allow GZ to act as watch, and be armed, may led to a civil suit now. His car markings, no uniform, no identifying himself as security. We did not hear many of those details, or at least I may have missed them.

Breguet Classique Grande Complication 7639
2009.10.20Haute Joaillerie Minute repeater
Till today, the minute repeater ranks supreme among horological complications. Universally admired, its intricate construction has remained the preserve of a few master watchmakers with the skill and patience to fit and adjust its delicate parts. A new achievement of Breguet's acoustic laboratory and of its master watchmakers, the Classique Grande Complication 7639, adds the prestige of baguette diamonds to the minute repeater function. The new and unique diamond setting on the dial is inspired by the legendary guilloché dials from Breguet and re-invents the famous "Clou de Paris" pattern.

Enlarge / Alternate Images
Very good chocolate aroma. Poor workability. Applies easy enough but dries out quickly. Requires multiple applications to complete any body area. Has to be cut with oil to sustain glide.
excellent product
Not reccomended for full body massage. You will not get a good glide and will find yourself using more and more which often times will leave unwanted buil-up.
Purchased two tubs of Chocolate and Coconut Lime. Yes, they do smell light and wonderful however for full body application, they absorb too quickly and halfway through a body part product will sometimes begin to pile and leave residue behind, especially if your client has alot of dead skin. For smaller applications like shoulder, feet, or neck this may be okay, however would not recommend for back and leg work. This would be great product for use as an after salt glow scrub application since it absorbs quickly.
I love the not too strong scent of this product! It is chocolate with a nice feel and leaves skin soft and lightly scented! Great for hands and feet! Have not tried it for all over as I am rationing the small container I purchased along with the 4 other scents from the sampler package!! Good ingredients as well!!

I frequently get asked the question what new machine would I recommend for someone who wants to buy their first machine. Since I've never bought a new machine, I don't consider myself a great resource on new machines, so I asked my readers for some of their thoughts and experience. You can read their suggestions in the comments on this post.
I'm now toying with the idea of of upgrading myself, but still unsure exactly what to get. While I will always love this baby, I'm starting to consider the idea of a little more throat space sounding nice. I'm still doing some research of my own. I'm excited to check out the rest of the Meet My Machine Blog Hop.
Want to share your own machine and it's story? You can link up a post here.
As part of this tour we were also invited to share pictures of our sewing space. I am currently in the middle of a few big projects and as a result, my sewing space looks like a HAZMAT reclamation super-fund site.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Prayers for my mom
Please pray for my mom (her name is Sandi). She was diagnosed a year and a half ago with lung cancer, stage 3B. She weathered the radiation and chemotherapy well, and she's been doing really well ever since. She tumors have shrunk, and she seems to be doing ok. Today she had a seizure and was taken to the hospital. There, they found that the cancer has spread to her brain. She'll be undergoing chemotherapy and radiation again starting Monday. Please pray for her and ask God to watch over her during the treatments. Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers. ....Amy

Episode Information
Ten or 15 years ago, when I was in my forties, I agreed to take the SAT's again and write about it for Men's Health. Long story short, I got an 800 on the verbal, because -- really -- what else had I done for the intervening 20 or 30 years but move words around?
On the math, not so much. On the math I was classified, technically, as a farm product. There are really two Americas. Math and verbal. There are people who live fludily and gracefully in both worlds ... and we hate them.
And yet, we verbal people know, at some level, because we've read essays about it, that there is an inherent beauty in math, that there are deep truths, that there is some dark place and which Goedel's theory of uncertainty reaches out and touches Camus and Mondrian and Thelonius Monk.
The problem is, we never heard anything in any math class we ever took that would confirm that. Maybe today?

Listener E-mail from Dennis
It was incredibly refreshing to hear your guest discuss and quote that his belief is that learning is an experience to help us lead richer lives.
Having been in the roles of a life long learner, student and instructor I have often thought that the inadequacy of an "education" is our present system is that it is a memorization drill with the goal of preparing the best "memorizers" to be on the show Jeopardy.
I can only hope among your listeners were anyone in the Deparment of Education who really want to solve inadaquacies of the current time dependant learning system.
Listener E-mail from Aya
Thank you for airing such an interesting topic yesterday! I'm sorry you
weren't able to take my call, and I wanted to add a point that may be of
I have to admit it set my teeth just a little on edge when Colin, you
asked if there is a personality type that is better at math, and I
wasn't much surprised when your guest was hesitant to answer.
As someone who has tutored both languages and math, I think we do
students a disservice when we presuppose that there is a math/science
personality, especially when we set it up as somehow at odds with
languages and the arts. The fact that a caller brought up the
math-music connection and that two of your guests spoke of elegant
proofs as akin to art, speaks to the deep connection between these
In my own studies, I was drawn to math, languages and music, but found
that as my studies advanced I was expected to choose either arts or
sciences. I couldn't understand it myself as I've always thought of
math and music as languages in their own right, but in high school I
wound up having to fight my school administrators in order to take my
Cambridge "A" Level exams (British system) in French, Spanish and *Math*
(instead of the more traditional English Lit.)
It really wasn't until my junior or senior year of music school, in a
music theory class in which the professor discussed the Golden Mean and
the Fibonacci Series found throughout music, art, natural science,
architecture, poetry, etc. in terms of advanced calculus, that I finally
understood why my love of math so peacefully coexists with my artistic
At this point we well know that our idea of "left-brained" and
"right-brained" as an either/or proposition is a fallacy created by pop
psychology, I just wish someone would remind our educators of this fact
before we create even more generations who think you have to be a
character on "Big Bang Theory" to understand the difference between
$0.02 and 0.02 cents. (That customer service call was priceless, by the
way. Thanks for that.)

Dr. Lockhart was really interesting. I would like to hear more of what that guy has to say. I like his forthrightness and I think you should have him back.

There is a GRAPHIC NOVEL I think you would enjoy: Logicomix: An Epic Search for Truth by Apostolos Doxiadis and Christos Papadimitriou (Paperback - Sept. 29, 2009)
from Amazon.com:
"This exceptional graphic novel recounts the spiritual odyssey of philosopher Bertrand Russell. In his agonized search for absolute truth, Russell crosses paths with legendary thinkers like Gottlob Frege, David Hilbert, and Kurt Gödel, and finds a passionate student in the great Ludwig Wittgenstein. But his most ambitious goal--to establish unshakable logical foundations of mathematics--continues to loom before him. Through love and hate, peace and war, Russell persists in the dogged mission that threatens to claim both his career and his personal happiness, finally driving him to the brink of insanity."
The creators of Logicomix introduce us to Bertrand Russell in 1939 during one of his public lectures. Russell explores the question, "What is logic?" by telling the story of "one of [logic's] most ardent fans"--himself. The book's creators reimagine the life of a young man with a passion for his search.
Thanks for today's show about math ! Hope you do another. And then another . . .
Actually, thanks for all your shows !
Listener E-mail from Johnathon
I love fractals and geometery and my compound interest application on my palm pre, but I took 099 algebra in college 4 times before getting my degree in, you guessed it, communication tv/broadcasting. We need theater people teaching math!
Oh, and the 9 table in multplication rocks.
Listener E-mail from Sally
I didn't have a fundamental understanding of WHY algebra was important. There was no foundation taught on which to build. No practical application in the real world and this was a major road block in my ability to understand. Geometry, on the other hand was taught to me with real world applications therefore I found that learning it was much easier and actually enjoyable.
Listener E-mail from Georg
Studies have shown, contrary to popular conception, is that math majors make poor computer programers. The best are music majors. It is felt that comp prog. requires logic. By its nature, math is a theory and not logical until you accept unproven facts which by nature is not logical. Music requires logical progression. Computer programing is pure logic. There are no axioms in pure logic.
Listener E-mail from David
I had an unfortunate math teacher in seventh grade. I am now forty and a committed verbalist. How do I start over? David

Primary biliary cirrhosis is irritation and swelling (inflammation) of the bile ducts of the liver. This blocks the flow of bile , which damages the liver cells and leads to scarring called cirrhosis.
The cause of inflamed bile ducts in the liver is not known. However, primary biliary cirrhosis is an autoimmune disorder. That means your body's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue.
The disease more commonly affects middle-aged women.
Long-term bile obstruction is believed to lead to liver cirrhosis . The disease may be linked to autoimmune disorders such as:
More than half of patients have no symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Symptoms most often come on slowly and may include:
The doctor or nurse will do a physical exam.
The following tests can check to see if your liver is working properly:
Other tests that can help diagnose this disease are:
The goal of treatment is to ease symptoms and prevent complications.
Cholestyramine (or colestipol) may reduce the itching. Ursodeoxycholic acid may improve removal of bile from the bloodstream. This may improve survival in some patients.
Vitamin replacement therapy restores vitamins A, K, E and D, which are lost in fatty stools. A calcium supplement or other bone medicines may be added to prevent or treat weak or soft bones (osteoporosis, and rarely osteomalacia ).
Liver transplant may be successful if it is done before liver failure occurs.
The outcome can vary. If the condition is not treated, most patients will die without a liver transplant. About a quarter of patients who have had the disease for 10 years will have liver failure. Doctors can now use a statistical model to predict the best time to do the transplant. Other diseases such as hypothyroidism and anemia can also develop.
Progressive cirrhosis can lead to liver failure. Complications can include:

The College News VOL. XVI, NO. 13 BRYN MAWfi (AND WAYNE), PA., WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1930 PRICE, 10 CENTS t Subject of Tea Dances Favorably Discussed A joint meeting of the Undergradu- ate and Self-Government Associations wal held at chapel time on Wednesday, February 12. The first ^estion be- fore the Undergraduate^Association was whether there should be a tea- dance before Varsity Dramatics as well as before Glee Club. The date of the Varsity production was named as, the week-end after spring vacation, while the Glee Club -performance will be in May. A vote was taken and the mo- tion for two tea-dances was carried. Mis* Baer was elected to choose and head a committee for the Varsity Dra- matics dance, and a faculty reception committee was agreed upon. The next question up for discussion wa- whether Bryn Mawr should join the X. S. F. A. (National Student Fed- eration of America) this year. Miss Perkins said that the college had be- longed to this organization for two years, although scarcely conscious of the fact, and that there were certain definite advantages in it. For instance by sending a representative to the an- nual conference we see the problems of other colleges and keep in touch with their movements. Many of the problems discussed at the conference, however, such as those dealing with fraternities and cheating at examina- tions, do not concern us. On the other band at the last conference in Palo Alto, our representative, Miss Martin, was able to make some very valuable and helpful suggestions to the other students. After a short discussion a vote was taken which decided that Bryn Mawr was to join N. S. F. A. again, but with more spirit and inter- est than previously shown. The Un- dergraduate Association Board was also empowered to bring the archaic book of Undergraduate laws up to date. The meeting was then turned over to the Self-Government Association, but the questions to be discussed were not brought to the vote since a quorum wtf not present. The executive board wished to be empowered to clarify the smoking rule by rewriting it. A ten- tative vote on the suggestion that the rule of no bridge playing in the smok- ing rooms on Sundays be changed seemed to favor the change. The third question brought before the meeting was whether men should be allowed in the girls' room's unchaperoned on weekdays. The ensuing discussion centered on two points: that of having special permission for weekday guests, and changing the hours slightly for the convenience of those who are dressing after athletics. The dbject of having special permission on Weekdays was pointed out as giving opportunities of checking up on the male visitors in the halls. Miss Thompson suggested that men be allowed to have tea in the balls on Saturday and Sunday after- noona without special permission, and ~on afternoons from Monday--to Friday with permission. No conclusions were reached on this subject, and the meet- ing was adjourned. Education Is Not Offered On a Silver Platter Calendar Thursday, evening, February 20: The Vanity Players will pre- sent Spar kin', by E. F. Conkle. Friday evening, February 21: Doctor L. C. Graton. Professor of Mining Geology at Harvard University, will speak on "How to Behave Like a Human Being When a Mile and a Half Below Ground." This lecture will be given under, the aus- pices of the Science Club, in Goodhart Hall, at a quarter past eight o'clock.-------�-� Monday, February 24: The Print Club of Philadelphia will open an exhibit in the old music room in Wyndham. Tuesday evening, February 25: The French Club will present Hernani. . On Tuesday, February 11. Miss Millicent Carey spoke at chapel in the Music Room on the complaints and criticisms of the students which have been brought to the Dean's office. There have been more changed courses this year than ever before and this presents an extremely interesting prob- lem since it shows up the student, en- lightens the administrator by throwing light on the curriculum needs, and es- tablishes certain opinions on what ed- ucational institutions should give. The first two points need little discussion. The complaining student often shows by her criticisms that it is she who is lacking, and she is in reality criticizing herself. Plans are being made by the Faculty and Student Curriculum Com- mittees for a complete revision �'of the present curriculum. In many cases the student complaints that there is too much to do in short courses, and that there are too many lectures' in some courses are completely justified. The most common criticisms of the educa- tional plan are that some of the pro- fessors are dull, that many courses contain too much ground work and de- tail and do not meet the student's in- terests, and that present courses are far too remote from life. It is-a strange and unfortunate truth that certain students cast the job of giving themselves an education upon the college, especially in courses that have interviews. It is as though they said to the college, "Well, here I am. What are you going to do about it?" This attitude is based on an entirely mistaken educational philosophy. In the first place all arguments must be conducted on the premise that Bryn Mawr is a specialized! college, and those who come here know that. The students are carefully' selected from among those wanting to do decent, thorough, scholarly work at college, and not to sit around and talk about life and take courses in' which all of human knowledge is- synthesized. Bryn Mawr wants to train people with a scholarly point of view, and ^ feels that the best education for a student lies in the honest, hard analysis of the subjects she is taking. With such an education she is completely equipped to do first rate graduate work, and also best equipped to do other things since she knows how to think, to use any materials as tools, and to work as hard as she can. The objections to the dull professors do not seem well- founded, for the teachers have been chosen as best fitted to present the mate- rial which the student wants. She has no right to complain because the profes- sor does not put over this important material with high-powered salesman- ship. Because the teacher does-not in- spire his class, individual student re- sponsibility does not end. If a stu- dent feels that she is getting nothing from her education, and would be bet- ter doing something else, she is a mis- fit and ddes not belong in college. That ideal educational quality which the student is seeking must be supple- mented by her own efforts. Prof. Whitehead'in his "Essay on the Aims of Education" sums the situation up very well: "There'is no royal road to learning through an airy path of bril- liant generalizations." Curtis Program Singular Success Miss Sanzewitch Charms With 'Symphonic Variations' of Franck. French Club to Present 'Hernani' (Specially contributed) The French Club of Bryn Mawr Col- lege announce a centennial reproduction of the famous premiere of Victor Hugo's HernajiDon February twenty-fifth in the auditorium of Goodhart Hall. The date is extremely well-known in literary his- tory as the culmination of the romantic theories proclaimed in Hugo's Prtface de Cromwell in 1827. As such, the first representation of Hernanit on February 25. 1830, occasioned a storm of comment and .enjoyed- a popularity accorded to few plays ,cither then or since. But apart tr-n thfe- literary qualities CoBtlao��>B P�*e Fonr DON JUAN OUTSTANDING On Wednesday. February 12, 1930, in Goodhart Auditorium, the Curtis Insti- tute Orchestra gave one of the out- standing concerts of the year. Under Emil Mlynarski as conductor, the young musicians showed delightful warmth of feeling and exuberant enthusiasm. From the sustained beauty of the second move- ment* of the Bjihms to the thrilling free- dom otthV Strauss, the players were sensitive to the peculiar value oi every phrase. Remarkable for their oneness in movement and spirit in the numbers for orchestra alone, they were equally skil- ful in combining with solo instruments. They caught up and developed themes with fulness and color, and with nice feeling for the balance between orchestra and individual artist. The peak of a beautiful program was undoubtedly the Symphonic Variations of Cesar Franck, the piano part played by Tatiana de Sanzewitch. From the first crisp, clear-cut notes. Miss Sanze- witch showed herself complete mistress of her instrument and leader of her or- chestra^ which responded to her shades of feeling as if inspired. The aloof'glory of the piece' caught the young pianist, body and spirit, until every note was charged with rare significance.' From subdued introductions and rising devel- opments, Miss Sanzewitch swept to bril- liant climaxes, carrying not only the orchestra, but her entire audience with her. High as was the level of Miss Sanze- witch's work, the rest of the program certainly did not suffer from comparison. The opening number was Beethoven's Overture to "Egmont." The heroic themes, although fluent, lacked the vigor of utterance which was to characterize the rest of the program, and to dominate the Strauss in particular. The first movement of the Brahms Double Concerto, intellectual and intri- cate in character, was difficult to handle. The violin themes of Miss Poska and Mr. Machula too often were lost against the orchestra, and the effect, while flow- ing and thoughtful, was lacking in con- viction. In the Andante and l/ivace, however, the orchestra reached the height which it was to maintain there- after. Less complex in structure, these movements were also shorter and easier ('iiiitlnnril on Page Three Start Now! The L. C. Page Publishing Company has just announced a contest which should be of great interest to Bryn Mawr people. They plan to publish, in 1930, a book entitled The CoUtge Girl of America, the text of which is to consist of articles written by students of Rock- ford, Smith, Mt. Holyoke, Wellcsley, Radcliffe, Simmons, Barnard. Vassar', Goucher. and Bryn Mawr. These ar- ticles are to be written on "the college, its history, traditions, ideals, and their exemplification in the kind of girl it is graduating today A contest is to be held in each college, and the writer of the l>est article, which is to be chosen within the college and then submitted to the publishers, will receive a prize of fifty dollars. The judg- ing committee at Bryn Mawr is to con- sist of Miss Carey, as a representative of the English Department: Dr. Vir- ginia Kneeland Frantz, Alumnae Direc- tor, as a member of the governing board of the college, and Erna Rice, '30, Edi- tor of the College News. The winning manuscript must have been selected by April first, at the latest, so those who are interested in entering the competi- tion are advised to start thinking about their articles. The judges reserve the right of awarding no prize, and of sub- mitting'-none of" the articles to L. C. Page, and Company if, in their opinion, none of the manuscripts submitted to them are worthy of publication. Mrs. Manning Explains Tuition Rise "My main object is calling you to- gether this morning," began Mrs. Mannhig in chapel on Thursday, "was to announce that in December the Di- rectors had voted that the fee for undergraduate tuition be raised one hundred dollars and the fee for gradu- ate tuition be raised fifty dollars." Mrs. Manning said that this anounce- ment was one that might be made al- most as a matter of routine, since we are gradually becoming accustomed to the increased cost of living, It has been the general policy of the college in any financial crisis to ask for sup- port from the Alumnae and the friends of the college outside or else to bor- row money. Only when the annual budget of the collage has proven too small, and when the inevitable rise in prices has made it necessary, have the fees increased. This year, however, the announcement of the increase in the tuition fee marks an important de- velopment in the financial policy of the college which every student here ought to understand. The step has been taken after a serious reconsideration of the whole problem by Miss Park and the Direc- tors. Comparison has shown that the cost of teaching in Bryn Mawr is higher than in the other women's col- leges. It is apparently impossible to meet the gap between' tuition fees and teaching expenses solely by increase in endowment. There are a number of reasons why the cost-of education at Bryn Mawr must be higher than at the other colleges. First of all,, ex- pensive arrangements have been made for taking care of students, such as the system of dining in separate halls; then, as a small college we maintain departments�Music and Art, for ex- ample�which are ordinarily omitted in the curriculum of colleges of this size; finally, on the whole, Bryn Mawr is a residential suburb and thus a very expensive place in which to live. However, very obviously these factors Continued on Pace Four Playe =*r Freshman Show Reveals Talent Series of Skits Devoid of Go* hesion, But Single Acts Good. rs to Present Conkle's 'Sparkin' ' "Sparkin'," a 'one-act jilay, by E. P. Conkle,' will be given by the Bryn Mawr Players in Cjpodhart Hall. Thursday evening. February 20, at 9:30 o'clock. The play is one of a series which Mr. Conkle calls "Crick Bottom Plays� Sketches of Mid-Western Life." "The author," says Barrett Clark, in his pre- face to the collection of plays, "based his work entirely upon the life he knew. Until he was nineteen he had not trav- elled .more than twenty-two miles from his home, a typical town in Nebraska. "It is perhaps unnecessary to say that not all the people in Nebraska and its neighboring States arc like these he de- picts in his plays. His* interest reverts to the tillers of the soil who drive teams of horses and not tractors. They came from Illinois and Indiana, some even from Virginia and North Carolina. Their quaint and sometimes rich idio- matic speech, like their religion and their philosophy, have now almost disappeared. They didn't read much,' Mr. Conkle tells me. hut they were wise. And they have now been relegated to the past, along with their coal-oil lamps, their spring lmckl)oards, and their homespun clothes. Their daughters and sons are ashamed of them.

ANIMAL IN SMALL PART 1933 offered to 1931 and others liberal entertainment in the form of their "Palpitating Pinafores." Fresh- man show was presented with avowed humility, but it scorned tradition and ignored the unfortunate animal until the bitter end. Further, the show was not a continuous palpitation as the name implied; it was a series of "skits" and "specialties," each giving evidence of careful organization within itself, but not assisting the unity of the show as a whole, and quite forgetting the animal. The faults of the show were perhaps advantages in view of enter- tainment; the fact that the animal was thrust aside, gave opportunity for greater variation in material; the fact that the show was broken up into nu- merous unrelated parts, allowed better exploitation of talent. Skits are dan- gerous devices because they are de- pendent on their witticisms, and should these be too much for the audience, as-4hey inevitably are in amateur at- tempts, the action drags heavily. The "~ modern revue has lessened these dan- gers By the use of the chorus; the Freshman show eked out what might have been otherwise flat lines with clever, and well-drilled songs and dances, in evident emulation of the professional stage. If the progress was~at times slow and pointless, it was counteracted partially by the happy in- sertion of choruses. Specialties are apt to cheapen a performance.wid, al- though they were pleasant interludes and served as fillers-in, they might have been better introduced into the action itself. The show could not rely on spectacle for its effect; the skits made no particular artistic demands upon their background, but one scenic achievement was produced�the im- pressive (though translucent) wall of Pembroke (or was it Rockefeller?); the costumes of the choruses were effectively designed, but otherwise costuming was a negligible factor. As a production, "Palpitating Pinafores" was ^carried through with smoothness and assurance", despite the lack of co- hesion in its parts. The curtain song was worthy of note because the words could actually be heard, and laughter could therefore be genuine. As to the palpitation of the pinafores, it was confined to the opening chorus�a4i original creation of '33; the pinafores themselves were white ruffled affairs on blue checked dresses cut low in the back, and it WU their movement to the syncopated song that stimulated the unwieldly show into motion�if not into palpita- tion;" one regretted that the pinafoxea. < niitinui-il on Pase'Three Organ Is Missed in Musical Service The Sunday evening service of the Bryn Mawr League was held in the Music Room of Goodhart Hall, Febru- ary 16.

Flomerics Helps Canadian Schools Pursue F1 Pole Position
October 2007
Flomerics is providing its FloEFD.Pro™ computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software free-of-charge to schools in Canada. The aim is to help students involved in the F1 in Schools™ CAD/CAM Design Challenge by improving the aerodynamics of their designs in a competition where a small fraction of a second separates the winner from the other participants.
As part of the challenge, students are given an assignment to design a 1:20 scale model of an F1™ car. Built out of balsa wood and powered by CO2, cars are designed using a Computer Aided Design (CAD) package such as PTC® Pro/ENGINEER®. Once the cars are designed, they are transferred into Computer Numerical Control (CNC) language using a Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) package such as PTC Pro/MANUFACTURE™. Cars are then manufactured on a CNC machine.
Flomerics' Research Manager, John Parry, comments: "For an actual F1 car the aerodynamic design is critical for a number of reasons, including drag. The 1:20 scale models cover a straight 20-meter track from a standing start in a little over a second, at which speed aerodynamic drag starts to become important. Just like F1, the Design Challenge is highly competitive, so attention should be given to the car's weight and aerodynamics of the design, particularly around the exposed wheels."
Using FloEFD.Pro within Pro/ENGINEER, students will be able to put their design into a computer model of a wind tunnel to simulate how it will perform on the race track. By using CFD it's possible to make the wheels rotate and the ground move under the car as well as having air flow over it – just like when it races down the track, so it's more realistic than just putting the model in a real wind tunnel.
By extending its EFD for Education initiative into schools, Flomerics hopes to give students an appreciation of Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) in achieving the best design possible and, like all involved in Formula 1, develop a passion for excellence!
"We are very pleased that Flomerics is providing their EFD fluid dynamics simulation software free of charge to the F1 in Schools project. This will enable students to analyze and optimize the aerodynamics of their designs and will certainly give Canadian schools an advantage in competitions. TEAM WORK Canada's goal is to achieve the same level of success the F1 in Schools CAD/CAM Design Challenge has had in the UK and around the world. It is our hope that by offering the Flomerics' FloEFD.Pro software, packaged with Pro/ENGINEER CAD design software, we will be able to attract even more students for the 07/08 racing season." -- Paul Riddell, Director of Development, TeamWork Canada Inc.

Big & Tall Jeans
Find stylish big and tall jeans at Kmart
Whether you're out running errands around town or working in a business casual environment, jeans are always a great style option. The selection can be limited for guys who wear larger sizes, but Kmart has a wide variety of big and tall jeans that are very comfortable and fashionable. We carry top brands like Wrangler, Basic Editions and Route 66 available in all sorts of cuts that suit your taste.
When it comes to big and tall jeans, some options might make you sacrifice style for comfort. Kmart's selection of plus size men's jeans, on the other hand, give you the best of both worlds. You'll find plenty of relaxed and regular fits or practical carpenter-style work jeans to complete your collection.
It's important to find the right colors to fit the rest of your wardrobe. You might want to consider a few pairs of dressy big and tall jeans so you're covered for any occasion. Business casual settings typically call for darker denim colors. Try matching a pair of black or dark blue plus size men's jeans with a stylish polo shirt.
If you're in a more relaxed setting, think about combining a pair of light denim jeans with a t-shirt or tank top. When the temperature drops, wear your jeans with a cozy sweater or other warm big and tall outerwear. No matter what the occasion calls for, Kmart has the perfect big and tall jeans to keep you feeling comfortable and looking great.

Most Helpful Positive Review
About 35 years past, I, out of necessity, purchased a pair of your dock-sides, at a Marina in Canada, while sailing. Now...all these years later, I STILL wear these dock sides, albeit, they are now worn and begging for retirement. I refuse retirement of them, because, they are still presentable and the MOST comfortable shoes that I have ever owned. I have never worn socks with them, and find them as comfortable as being bare footed. They so far out perform any other pair of dock shoes that I have ever owned. Thanks to you for sending my order pronto, and for accepting my return for a larger pair. Great service.

VERY Disappointed!!
Most Helpful Critical Review
I have been wearing Docksides for many years because of their comfort and quality. However, my last 2 purchases were VERY disappointing. Now that they are no longer made in USA, the quality has deteriorated significantly. The quality of leather is poor and they are no longer comfortable for me. Unless there is an improvement, I doubt that I will purchase them again. To charge such high prices for inferior, Dominican-made products is a disgrace! More American jobs outsourced with poor quality as a result. I would NOT recommend these shoes. BUY AMERICAN!!!!!
Thank you for your review. We will be contacting you shortly to take care of this matter.

A case involving unpaid overtime money for several Lancaster County Emergency Medical Services workers has finally been settled – to the tune of $1.5 million.
For the last 17 months, a group of 59 former and current EMS employees have been awaiting the results of a class-action lawsuit they jointly filed against Lancaster County.
KERSHAW – Kershaw officials are still talking about ways to enhance law enforcement coverage in the town.
Town Council met in closed session twice Monday to discuss its contract with the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office.
Kershaw has been paying the sheriff's office $451,000 a year to provide coverage, which includes two patrol deputies per shift.
Town Administrator Tony Starnes recently expressed a desire to have a deputy who can serve as an administrator or supervisor on each shift.
The national debate regarding religion and contraception made its way to Lancaster on Tuesday evening.
That's where U.S. Rep. Mick Mulvaney spoke at a town hall meeting inside Stevens Auditorium at the University of South Carolina Lancaster. He's been traveling throughout the state's 5th Congressional District lately, updating constituents on federal affairs in Washington, D.C.
City Council is divided on certain details of the Brook Drive improvement project near the University of South Carolina Lancaster.
The city has been planning for sewer and road improvements that will better accommodate the future influx of student residents in that area in coming years.

A Panhandle rezoning plan is in flux once again, as a special committee tasked to clear up zoning concerns in the northern part of the county voted to disband last week.
The Panhandle/B-3 Overlay Committee, made up of various residents, Lancaster County Council members and representatives from the county planning department, held its last official meeting last week.
District 1 County Councilman Larry McCullough said the committee had delivered what it had been set up to do and he recommended it disband.
A proposed zoning plan for the Panhandle was stopped in its tracks last week, as Lancaster County Council decided to instead extend its rezoning moratorium. The original plan for council's Feb. 27 meeting was for members to hear first reading of an ordinance to add several business zoning classifications to the county's Panhandle area.
The city of Lancaster is once again giving financial support to Hope on the Hill. City Council voted unanimously Feb. 28 to award the organization $50,000 to be used for renovations of the former Barr Street school, now called the Barr Street Family Life Center. The $50,000, which is specifically targeted for auditorium repairs, will come from the city's hospitality tax grant fund. That fund contains a little more than $1 million, said city Administrator Helen Sowell. Grants are given to events and projects that can foster tourism.
Larry McCullough campaign INDIAN LAND – Republican incumbent District 1 County Councilman Larry McCullough, 60, announced this weekend he is seeking re-election for Lancaster County Council. McCullough's two an-nouncements, one Saturday at 521 BBQ & Grill and another Sunday at The Lake House in Sun City Carolina Lakes, were attended by more than 100 enthusiastic supporters, many of whom signed up to volunteer with the campaign.
Plans to make Main Street Lancaster the local hub for Native American studies have been delayed with the discovery of asbestos in a key building.

Just be aware that a lot of those songs were by Arcade Fire 1.0, so it's a very different band and a very different sound. Kind of alt-countryish, a bit more lo-fi, a lot messier. Win and Régine are pretty much the only constant, and they weren't always doing vocals.
Calexico's cover of Ocean of Noise is damn near better than the original too, I must say.

\ The college Mews VOL. XL, NO. 24 ARDMORE and BRYN M-AWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1944 Copyright, 1 rutleet of Rrvn Mawr Coll�.. . 1944 PRICE 10 CENTS Role of Perfection In Religious Thought Discussed by Thomas Common Room April 28. Love, liberty, perfectionism, and social responsibilities are the four es- sential parts of Chiristian ethics, said Mr. George Thomas in his lecture on religious thought, the third of a series. Christianity, Mr. Thomas point- ed out, is fundamentally a per- fectionist religion. This perfec- tionism is based not on human abilities and failings, but rather on the standard of God's perfec- tiotfi In fact, the religion as- sumes that men are naturally sin- ful and a radical change of at- titude of a rebirth within its fol- lowers is needed. Besides the corollary of con- version, perfectionism carries with it another idea, that of pro- gressiveness. Since perfection equal to God is never obtainable, the good life is never complete and there is never room for mor- al complacency. Not Aristotelian Mr. Thomas contrasted the rad- ical Christian ethic of perfection- ism with Aristotle's Greek ethic which advises the development of one particular virtue. Illustrating how the Christian ethic was also one of love, Mr. Thomas pointed out the difference between Jesus' conception of love and the one popularly held today. Love is a spontaneous expression based on the value of loving rath- er than the worth of the loved one. It has no relationship to the natural attractions of beauty or ability. Christian love requires no re- ciprocation, Mr. Thomas contin- ued. It is based on the perfec- tionist idea that God loves every- one, and that we should do the same. This is exemplified in the Bible by Jesus' association with sinners and publicans. The love, itself, is not primarily a senti- ment but a way of life. It is un- iversal, being unlimited by racial, national, color, or creed barriers. Continued on page 6 English Composition Poll Result Analyzed By Stapleton, Brown Specially Contributed by Patricia Brown and Laurence Stapleton Representatives of the Under- graduate Curriculum Committee and of the Required English Com- position Staff have now completed their analysis of the poll which was recently taken to determine student opinion of the course in Freshman English. About two hundred and twenty students ans- wered the questions. The ques- tionnaire was drawn up by the committee and by the staff mem- bers in joint consultation. This project is one of the first exam- ples of student-faculty cooperation in the discussion of a required course. The poll disclosed a great diver- sity of ideas, and many valuable and constructive suggestions were made. The general trend of opin- ion may be summarized as fol- lows: New Ideas 1. Most students thought that the primary emphasis of the course should be on training in clear and correct writing. Stud- ents should be given practice in organization, and should learn to eliminate faults of style. Many students said that they had learned to outline and to write long pap- ers in Freshman English. General- ly, students wish to learn some- thing about the work of good mod- ern writers and to have practice in literary criticism. Many felt that there should be more detailed criticism of their papers. 2. Most students found that the course had given them an oppor- tunity for independent thinking. :s. The course had helped most students to recognize faults in their writing, but had failed to give them a constructive method of improving it. 4. More Freshmen than upper- classmen felt that they understood the plan of the course. Most stud- ents wished to have more discus- sion of the plan. In particular, the connection between the read- continued on page 4 Hinchman Memorial and Brooke Hall Prizes Presented as Double Award to J. A. Potter Mikado Atmosphere, Choosing of Royalty Will Ad to Jr. Prom Presided over by a king and queen in an atmosphere of cherry blossoms and pagodas, the an- nual Junior Prom will follow the performance of the Mikado on Saturday night, May 6, from 10:30 to 2:00 A.M. The main feature of the even- ing will be the crowning of the "royal" couple during intermis- sion. The queen will probably be a member of the Senior class; the king, her escort. Prelimin- ary selections for the honor will be made at the Sophomore carni- val on Saturday afternoon by the Junior Prom committee and the Sophomore Carnival committee. Final judgments will take place at the dance itself with chaper- ones aiding the Prom committee. The Debonair* will provide mu- sic for dancing in the gym dis- guised in its Japanese garb. The Continued on Page 4 Singing, Acting, Dancing, Props Contribute To Spontaneous Combustion of Operetta by Patricia Platt, *45 The Mikado, swinging on into its last week of rehearsals, ex- hibits a quality of spontaneous combustion which manifests it- self in singing, acting, dancing, and last, but not least, props. Hir- ohito would find himself a strang- er in Mr. Alwyne's Japan, where, against a colorful backdrop of cherry blossoms and pagoda tops, a painty stagehand nestles with a book. The story of the operetta con- cerns Nanki-Pooh (Lucretia J)un- can), son of the Mikado, m his flight from his betrothed,X.the horribly hideous Katasha ( Hoyt Sherman). Touring the country as a wandering minstrel^ he falls for the fair Yum-Yum (Benjy Beckwith), beloved of Ko-Ko, the Lord High Execu- tioner (Kay Tappan). The result is generally gory�a nasty dil- emma arising as to who is going to die a death by "something lingering�with boiling oil in it." In such a setting suicides are sissy, and the Mikado (Maggie Hilgartner) mows down Japs with a fan as if it were a gat. Lone quailer among the group is Ko-Ko, whose words ("he squirmed and struggled and gurg- led and guggled as I drew my snicker snee") belie his lack of intestinal fortitude. This is his undoing, and leaves him making love to Katasha, whose enumer- ated attractions are a heel ap- preciated by connoisseurs, and one tooth that nobody has been able to pull out. The cast gets a work-out. Tongues have their daily dozen with infinite series of fa-lalala's, while attempts to coordinate love scenes usually wind up in contor- tions and hysterics. Whether Nanki-Pooh is trying to kill him- self wife. "L imaginary dagger theVrop girl assures, "will be ready tomorrow"), ol- he and Yum-Yum are starting off on a honeymoon with wVat at this stage looks like a sweater filled with books, the pace is mad and merry. Although the "gentle- men of Japan" may be seen on "many a vase and jar, on many a screen or fan", their life is any- thing but static. When not sing- ing the chorus spends most of its time getting up and down off the floor and trying to keep its col- lective face straight. This is the hardest job of all. Sophomore Carnival Features Mr. Herben by Nancy Morehou.se, *47 Come lads, come lasses! 46's grandest effort of the year will be laid before your eyes when the Sophomore carnival transforms the hockey field on Saturday af- ternoon, May 6. Symbolizing 46's concerted effort will be Mr. Her- ben, class animal, who will lend a note of out-of-this-academic- world gaiety by selling Hawaiian lei and canes. Games of all shades and varie- ties await the carnival-goers. The Sophomores have evolved a new, distinct Bryn Mawr version of the traditional pin-the-tail-on-the- donkey. It consists instead of a beautiful girl, whose heart needs relocating, destined especially for the male members of the audi- ence, and for the feminine fair- goers is a handsome uniformed gentleman needing to have his medal pinned on.
