University of Malaya, Faculty of Engineering: An experimental and numerical study of turbulent flow inside studio apartments
June 2007
Many cities in Malaya are developing rapidly now. The demand for studio type apartments has increased and there is growing interest among building services engineers and building developers in the analyses of internal airflows and thermal comfort. The factors influencing the built environment include air temperature, air humidity, air velocity, turbulence intensity and cleanliness of the air. There is a constant heat exchange occurring between human bodies and both the indoor and outdoor environments. The rate of heat exchange is functions of the metabolic rate, activity and the amount of work. Humans also have a higher sensitivity to temperature. Effective distribution of fresh air within an occupied space is important in providing good thermal comfort and good indoor air quality (IAQ). To respond to these needs, an air-conditioning system must have greater flexibility, provide better thermal comfort and IAQ, and greater energy savings.
Current research is focussed on mechanical ventilation, heating and cooling inside offices. However, less work has been done on mechanical ventilation and cooling inside residential spaces (apartments and condominiums). We had examined the effective air distribution and obtained good thermal comfort in residential living rooms and bedrooms with air-conditioners. Several researchers have studied on the effects of supply location and its impact on thermal comfort. Gan used computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to investigate local thermal discomfort in an office room. He found that thermal discomfort could be prevented by the optimisation of the supply air velocities and temperature. The majority of studio apartments in Malaysia are equipped with up to two or three air-conditioners. They operate daily to provide effective cooling to the occupants. The improper location of the air-conditioner with respect to furniture is a critical issue. It could cause unwanted air re-circulations, resulting in inadequate mixing of cold air with the warm ambient air as well as the buoyant convective currents from the heat sources within the room. The CFD software solves the governing Navier-Stokes equations (i.e. Continuity, Momentum and Energy balance equations). The objective of this research is to determine the indoor thermal environment in the apartment of interest as well as to determine the hot spots both numerically and experimentally. The velocity, temperature, and humidity in the apartment are determined by using the commercial CFD program FloVENT.
The airflow patterns, air velocity and temperature distributions are measured in a full-scale environmental test facility. The test room, 6720 mm wide, 3040 mm high, and 5860 mm long, simulates the typical indoor environment. The test room is cooled by a 2.5 hp air-conditioner, 1714 wide, 240 mm high, and 500 mm long. The three wooden doors and windows are shut and there are no additional sources of cooling other than the air conditioner. Therefore the airflow in the room is the result of convection currents due to buoyancy effects and forced convection from the air-conditioner. The ceiling is insulated with ceiling boards while the floor is made of reinforced concrete covered with tiles. Thus, the room is isolated from any external wind and solar radiation. However, human disturbances are inevitable.
Simulations are performed with the commercial CFD software. This software is used because it provides state of the art grid generation and flow modelling capabilities. Three different representations of the fluid flow in the apartment are used: laminar flow, turbulent flow using the LVEL Algebraic turbulence model, and turbulent flow using LVEL k-å turbulence model. The airflow and heat transfer are governed by the Navier-Stokes equations. FloVENT solvers are based on Finite Volume method. Domain is dicretised into a finite set of control volume or cells.

Sandusky County Options for Police, Fire and EMS Scanners.
The Ohio State Highway Patrol and many other agencies have switched to the statewide MARCS 800/700 trunked radio system
The system can be monitored with several models of digital police scanners. Some counties and cities statewide use the MARCS system as well.
Other Counties use a variety of trunked and conventional systems. Areas around Cleveland, Cincinnati and Columbus often use a variety of Motorola and EDACS trunked system that can be monitored with a trunktracking scanner, several other counties use conventional (non trunked) systems that can be monitored with a basic police scanner.
A basic police scanner will work for many county and local Police, Fire and Ambulance radio communications in Sandusky County, Ohio, including Fremont.
To monitor the Ohio State Highway Patrol and other state agencies a digital trunking scanner radio is needed as they operate on the statewide MARCS 800/700 trunked radio system

Are these characters you created in the Character Creation of the actual game or did you just make them up?
Yes, these are my character I mostly play, it's been a while though. Asuras, for me, always had that "so ugly, they're cute" thing for me.
And thank you for the wishes, guys, I'm hoping to get the rest of the list done before the end of summer, I'm still working on concept art design to fill up my portfolio.

Super Comfortable
I cannot typically wear flip-flops or any sandal that goes between the toes as they have never been comfortable - not so with these flip-flops. I've actually been buying this style of flip-flop for years since I first discovered them for sale at a local Dillard's store and I bought my first pair for a trip to Hawaii. Great decision! I wore them all day every day in Hawaii and traipsed all over the islands in them. They were so comfortable that I bought several other pairs when I got back to Texas (they used to come in several colors - charcoal, light tan, etc.). I have never been disappointed in the durability and had to look for them online when Dillard's replaced them with Reef sandals the next year. Once I found OceanMinded online, I bought more since I wore them so much they wore out. (They used to sell them in youth sizes and my son lived in them during his first trip to Hawaii too!) I'm surprised to see reviews where people said the strap came out as I've never had that happen in any of the pairs I bought - I just replaced them when I wore the soles down. I have noticed that since they transitioned to Crocs, the size got narrower (not sure if those things are related or not) so although I usually wear a 9-9.5, I have to get a 10 in the sandals and they fit slightly smaller and narrower than they originally did (they feel a little stiff at first however do get more flexible and stretch slightly once you wear them for awhile). I will continue to buy them as they are hands down the most comfortable shoes to wear when I'm not at work. I wish they would bring back more selections in the colors of the leather Del Mar as it would be nice to have a black and light neutral color to choose from again, especially in a warmer climate where flips-flops are worn a good portion of the year.

Watch your size
I am either a 9 or 9 1/2 depending how the shoe runs. After reading another review I ordered the 9. Big mistake they just barely fit. My advise if you are sometimes a half size, order up. I'm sure I would have been much happier with the 10. They are a bit narrow but that works for me. If I wasn't going on vacation in two days i would have returned and reordered. As far as being durable not sure just got them.

not good
Love my crocs baya! But these i wish i would have tried them on when i got them, now i can't send them back... They are very narrow, and I don't have a wide foot!! They are horrible as far as comfort between the toe, and just not good. So disappointed!!!

great study flip flop
I got this flip flop because I wanted something sturdy with a slight lift but not a platform in a brown leather. These fit the bill. I was tired of too flat flip flops with no arch support and would sometimes fold in half when I walked (Havianas). These have a sturdy sole, but are still somewhat cushioned. The thong between the toe is comfortable as well. I have a B width foot and they fit fine. I would not recommend if you have wide feet though as mine almost fill the whole width. It is true to size, I wear a 7-71/2 and the 7s work. I also recently got a pair of Reefs which are cushier with even more defined arch support but the arches I can feel almost too much and the soles a bit too floppy. I got the distressed brown which is slightly darker in person than pictured here. I think this is finally the shoe I have been looking for!

Nearsightedness is when light entering the eye is focused incorrectly, making distant objects appear blurred. Nearsightedness is a type of refractive error of the eye.
If you are nearsighted, you have trouble seeing things that are far away.
Myopia; Shortsightedness; Refractive error - nearsightedness
People are able to see because the front part of the eye bends (refracts) light and points it to the back surface of the eye, called the retina.
Nearsightedness occurs when the physical length of the eye is greater than the optical length.
This makes it more difficult for the eyes to focus light directly on the retina. If the light rays are not clearly focused on the retina, the images you see may be blurry.
Nearsightedness affects males and females equally. People who have a family history of nearsightedness are more likely to develop it. Most eyes with nearsightedness are healthy, but a small number of people with severe myopia develop a form of retinal degeneration.
A nearsighted person sees close up objects clearly, but objects in the distance are blurred. Squinting will tend to make far away objects seem clearer.
Nearsightedness is often first noticed in school-aged children or teenagers. Children often cannot read the blackboard, but they can easily read a book.
Nearsightedness gets worse during the growth years. People who are nearsighted need to change glasses or contact lenses often. It usually stops progressing as a person stops growing in his or her early twenties.
Other symptoms may include:
A nearsighted person can easily read the Jaeger eye chart (the chart for near reading), but has trouble reading the Snellen eye chart (the chart for distance).
A general eye examination, or standard ophthalmic exam may include:
Wearing eyeglasses or contact lenses can help shift the focus of the light image directly onto the retina, producing a clearer image.
The most common surgery to correct myopia is LASIK . An excimer laser is used to reshape (flatten) the cornea, shifting the focus.
Early diagnosis of nearsightedness is important, because a child can suffer socially and educationally by not being able to see well at a distance.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if your child shows these signs, which may indicate a vision problem:
Call for an appointment with your eye doctor if you or your child is nearsighted and experiences signs of a possible retinal tear or detachment, including:
There is no way to prevent nearsightedness. Reading and watching television do not cause nearsightedness. In the past, dilating eye drops were proposed as a treatment to slow the development of nearsightedness in children, but they have never been proven effective.
The use of glasses or contact lenses does not affect the normal progression of myopia -- they simply focus the light so the nearsighted person can see distant objects clearly. Hard contact lenses will sometimes hide the progression of nearsightedness, but vision will still get worse "under" the contact lens.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I honestly thought it would be just pick a card and that is it but I was amazed how much I was able to personalize and design the cards. Everything was so prompt to it was great."
"I can't believe how cute this SAVE THE DATE MAGNET turned out to be. I personalized the colors and the designed team was very responsive and captured the picture in my head of how it should look like. The quality is MAGNIFICENT! I can't wait to distribute these to my guests!"
"Our Save the Dates came out better than expected! They are fun and everyone loved them. We have received so many compliments!"
"We found a venue and a date relatively fast after we got engaged which only gave us 6 Months to prepare for our Wedding Day. My fiance and I really needed to get our Save the Dates out and we were not scheduled to have our Engagement Photos taken for another month. This Save the Date Magnet is a Great Alternative instead of using Engagement Photos. It is really fun and super cute when you actually see it in person. The design team got back to us really fast the approve our custom color combination request which is key to having it perfect for your big day. The magnet is a plus because it enables people to hopefully put it in a place, like a refrigerator, where they can see it daily! Great Product"
"We received a lot of Save the Dates over the course of the year, all featuring a couple's photo on a refrigerator magnet. We wanted to do something different and this style absolutely fit the bill and its whimsical nature also compliments our character and describes our relationship in a nutshell as the title says. It's also a segway into the design of our wedding slide show, which I am pleased with."

I already have all the Blu-rays of the Roger Moore and Sean Connery discs that were released several years ago, so why should I be forced into buying them all over again just for the ones that have not yet been released on Blu?I only want, You Only Live Twice, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Diamonds Are Forever, The Spy Who Loved Me, Octopussy, A View To A Kill and The Living Daylights.The not-so-good Pierce Brosnan bonds I can do without, and I already have the Daniel Craig Bonds on Blu as well.My bet is these will eventually be released individually during Bonds 50th year sometime during 2013, so my advice is to wait, if like me, you already have the existing Bond Blu-rays.
5 Bond, James bondjackbauer7 | 26/05/2012 | See all jackbauer7's reviews (5)Can't wait, all the bond films and jaws on blu ray in the same year, awesome.
4 You know the name...Lloyd027 | 17/03/2012 | See all Lloyd027's reviews (14)Although I have 11 of these already on Blu ray, I can't wait to get this set - a long running series that has survived since the 1960's, with no. 23 on the way too!Even though 6 actors have played Bond, the character remains timeless, and an endearing icon of what is quintessentially British!Whether fighting against the Soviet Union, Smersh or the current crop of megalomaniacs, Bond cannot be bested!

Our Badger® 5XP™ model provides more power and a longer warranty than the Badger® 5 or Badger® 1.
InSinkErator Badger® food waste disposers are a reliable and functional choice when affordability is the prime concern. Choose from three models, each with a space-saving compact design.
If you prefer a higher level of grind performance, and significantly quieter operation, check out the Evolution™ Series Disposers.
With an InSinkErator® food waste disposer in your kitchen, chicken bones, fruit rinds, coffee grounds and more can go right in the sink -- where they're virtually liquefied to safely flow into your sewage system or septic tank. You'll enjoy a cleaner food preparation area, and less bagged garbage cluttering your home.
Food waste disposers provide an environmentally responsible alternative to transporting food waste to landfills. And they can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. At capable wastewater treatment plants, food waste can be converted to biosolids and used as fertilizer. Capable plants can also capture methane gas and recycle it as an energy source. (Check the plant in your area.) Learn more about disposers and the environment.
What's more, if you've never owned a food waste disposer, you're in for a pleasant surprise. InSinkErator® disposers are economical to operate: in fact, they're among the least expensive installed kitchen appliances.

Working Paper | HBS Working Paper Series | 2015 Cashing Out: The Rise of M&A in Bankruptcy Stuart Gilson, Edith Hotchkiss and Matthew Osborn The use of M&A in bankruptcy has increased dramatically in recent years, leading to concerns that the Chapter 11 process has shifted toward excessive liquidation of viable firms. In this paper, we argue that the rise of M&A has blurred traditional distinctions between "reorganization" and "liquidation." We examine the drivers of M&A activity, based on factors specific to Chapter 11 as well as more general factors that drive M&A waves for non-distressed firms. M&A in bankruptcy is counter-cyclical, and is more likely when the costs of financing a reorganization are greater than financing costs to a potential acquirer. Consistent with a senior creditor liquidation bias, the greater use of secured debt leads to more sales in bankruptcy—but, this result holds only for sales that preserve going concern value. We also show that overall creditor recovery rates are higher, and unsecured creditor recoveries and post-bankruptcy survival rates are not different, when bankrupt firms sell businesses as going concerns.

'Give tungsten a break...'
02 September 2010
'Give tungsten a break...'
Athens. Load in day.
Being laden with several weeks worth of 'other' items on my to-do list, I decided to go into the venue today where there'd be fewer distractions. It's always a bit of a shock to realise that life continues in the outside world when you're on tour, and at this point I've accumulated a whole shed-load of domestic and business chores in desperate need of being taken care of.
Production manager Jake is away today, off advancing some stadiums for shows next year. Consequently I took advantage of his absence by taking over his desk. He has one of those clever Mac set-ups where you plug your laptop in and it springs to life on a big plasma screen with proper mouse, keyboard and all that good stuff. This not only increased efficiency by a large factor, but also caused continual amusement for the endless stream of people who'd come into the production office expecting Jake and finding me on the throne. My favourite question was if I'd won the 'Jake for a Day' competition.
This is a very big, new stadium (it's the one where the big head came out of the floor and flew apart during the 2006 Olympic opening ceremony) and the stage looks very well in here. Despite being sat at a computer for about eight hours, I enjoyed the day enormously as it proved to be staggeringly productive. I can probably ignore the outside world for about another month now.
Back in town I took myself out to dinner again. I went to a different place but had the same dinner as yesterday; dolmas, babaganoush & Greek salad (it sat ok yesterday so why break a winning formula). As yesterday I sat outside in the warm evening air & read my book.
I'm reading Uncle Tungsten, the childhood memoir of the neurologist Oliver Sacks. Appropriately for U2-tour reading, it was The Edge who introduced me to Oliver Sacks' writing some time back in the 80's, by recommending The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat. I've read and enjoyed a couple of his books and, having a particular affinity for tungsten myself, was intrigued by the title of this one. The subtitle of the book is Memories of a Chemical Boyhood and it turns out that Sacks comes from a huge family of scientists, physicians, geologists & the like, and grew up in northwest London obsessed by chemistry. He had an uncle who set up in the business of light bulb manufacture and was an early pioneer of the tungsten filament bulb. To my mind, this beautiful instrument of illumination has never been equalled in its quality of light (on stage or in the home). Its exquisite, soft-amber ambience is elegant, restful & flattering all at the same time, and has a natural resonance with our physical being. The fact that the chemical symbol for tungsten is 'W' makes the resonance all the more personal for me.
The current witch-hunt to seek out and destroy the tungsten light bulb is, to my mind, an act of aesthetic vandalism, and the compact fluorescent fixtures being pushed to replace them are simply an affront to the human spirit. An obvious case in point from only this evening is that many of the little back alleys of Athens are now obnoxiously lit with fluorescent light, destroying their character and beauty in one hit. These once-atmospheric, ancient thoroughfares now have an atmosphere more conducive to undergoing eye surgery than to walking in the footsteps of history.
Of course let's be prudent and let us strive for fully renewable energy, but aesthetic suicide is no solution for climate change. In a world where factories all over the globe are spewing CO2 twenty-four-seven, and every high street shop is snorting through carbon by running heating and/or air conditioning with its doors wide open, whatever did the poor, humble light bulb do to deserve to be first up against the wall? It is just an easy victim of conscience-soothing scapegoating.
Most likely LED will come to save the day, but when it does you can be sure it will achieve its goal by exactly mimicking the quality of light produced by tungsten. Hopefully this is not too far away now, so in the meantime let€™s fly a flag for elegant evenings and give tungsten a break.

Here Here!
I can't agree with you more!!! My husband has been sabotaging the lightbulbs in my house one by one thinking I will never notice the obnoxioius switch! I absolutely hate the light put off by the flourescent bulbs! He has even gone to swithcing the exterior lights so it looks like I am pulling into a NYC parking garage instead of home! (which I have spent many countless hours nurturing and tending to my gardens so they look beautiful in the evening ) Love reading all your entries Willie! Cheers to many more!
13 September, 2010
I hate those new lightbulbs, too. Plus, I've heard that they contain mercury, so if you break one accidentally, supposedly you and everyone else in the room has to go to the hospital.
13 September, 2010
ah, Oliver Sacks! I just love his books. I couldn't help but think of Edge while I read Musicophilia. No surprise he's familiar with Sacks' work :)

Concerns About Stem Cell Tourism
Stem Cell Tourism
Stem cells hold incredible promise for generating new therapies for a wide range of diseases. However, that promise doesn't help people who are sick today, and are looking for cures right now.
International clinics have recognized that need and, unfortunately, have begun advertising unproven therapies at great cost to the patient and at great profit to the clinic. Any internet search can turn up dozens of clinics promising stem cell therapies. But a closer look will often reveal no information about what type of stem cells are being offered. These sites also rely heavily on video testimonials from people soon after the stem cell injections, but little information about how those people fared long-term.
A few recent examples of fraudulent stem cell tourism include a British doctor who, in September, 2010, lost his medical license for injecting patients with stem cells from taken from cows. In other cases, patients have developed tumors from injections of unpurified stem cells.
CIRM co-hosted a panel at the 2010 meeting of the International Society for Stem Cell Research in San Francisco in which members discussed the steps leading to a stem cell therapy, and concerns about stem cell tourism.
At that panel, the ISSCR previewed their new web site designed to help patients and their families assess international clinics advertising stem cell cures.
The ISSCR also has information about the normal testing process that's involved in verifying that a therapy works and is safe (How Science Becomes Medicine). CIRM also has information about the kinds of research that need to be done before a therapy becomes available: How Stem Cells Become Therapies.
CIRM is also one of 13 organization who issued a joint advisory on stem cell tourism, which addresses questions about how to identify regulated stem cell clinical trials. You can read that advisory here.
What is CIRM doing to accelerate stem cell cures?
At CIRM, we know that "Be patient" is not what any patient wants to hear. That's why we're working to speed the normal path from a good idea in the lab to a proven therapy in doctor's offices.
Working with patient groups
The greatest motivation to get stem cell therapies to patients comes from the patients themselves. That's why we include patient advocates on our governing board, in our working groups and at our meetings. Advocates on our board ensure that the organization's focus is on developing cures (See a list of board members). By working closely with advocacy groups throughout the state, we make sure patients have up-to-date information about the progress of our research and have a way of communicating their needs directly to our leaders. You can see resources and patient groups on our stem cell disease pages.
Overcoming obstacles
A great idea in the lab can often run into barriers along the path to the clinic. Rather than waiting to find out what those obstacles will be, CIRM proactively funded a round of grants called the Tools and Technologies Awards that look ahead to what those obstacles might be and funds the solutions now, before they ever stand in the way of a future therapy.
- Here's a list of our funded Tools and Technologies Awards
Making the transition
A classic place for an idea to stall is in the transition from laboratory research, which is often federally funded, and clinical trials, often funded by drug companies. In between these two stages come years of preclinical research verifying the idea and ensuring that it appears safe. Rather than losing ideas in what's come to be called the "Valley of Death", CIRM funds yearly Early Translational Awards to make sure future therapies are moving toward the clinic rather than foundering between funding mechanisms.
- Here's a list of our Early Translational Awards
Creating teams
Teams of scientists are needed to usher any future therapy through the arduous testing required before the Food and Drug Administration will approve it for clinical trials. Normally, the components of those teams actually work individually, each requiring separate funding, often replicating work or losing ground through poor communication.
CIRM realized that therapies would get to trial faster if solid, experienced teams agreed in advance to work together, and could focus on the therapy rather than on acquiring funds for the next step. CIRM funds interdisciplinary Disease Teams that pull together the full range of scientists needed to get a therapy into patients. These teams are expected to file for clinical trial approval with the FDA within four years of receiving funding, a veritable scientific sprint compared to the decade or more that the process can sometimes take.

Ap- plicants are urged to see E. Rice if trying for the editorial board, and D. Cross if their interest in- clines toward the business end. Erna Rice will be in her room, 23 Pembroke East, from 8 until. 10 Thursday hiorning. � Miss Speer Pleads. For Sunday Chapel Lantern Night Proves � True to Tradition Constance Speer, '30, led the vesper service of the Bryn Mawr League which was held in the music room of Goodhart Hall on Sunday evening, Oc- tober 13. Miss Speer, after reading an introduc- tory passage from Joseph Glanville's The Way of Happiness, went on to ex- plain to the college the point of view which the League has concerning the Sunday evening services. "Until last year, the Sunday evening services used to be arranged very differ- ently. There was an outside speaker every Sunday evening, and the service was much the same as a regular church service. They always used to be held in trie c4�pel in Taylor�a place used also for the entrance examinations. But it was hard tP get a minister for every Sunday and even when there was a good man, it was only on an exceptional eve- ning that he found more than thirty in his congregation. More often he found himself confronted by a few faithful souls, a bored choir, and manv marble, and totally pagan, statues. So last year the system was changed. The Christian Association became the Bryn Mawr League, ft was decided that people might be more .interested in chapel it we did not try to cram religion �good, bad, or indifferent�down their throats every week. So we started hav- ing musical services, with organ music, On Thursday afternoon, October 10, anthems by the choir, and a few minutes the "Varsity Players" served tea in the Another year has brought another Lantern Night and taken it away, leav- ing the memory of a mopn-coludcd evening, the shadow-filled cloisters, and black-robed figures spangled with sparkling.lights, to compensate for its loss. The harmonious strains of Pallas Athena Thea and Sophias Philai Paro- men have drifted away, but the manner in which they were sung will not be forgotten so quickly by those who heard the beautiful hymns on Friday night. The old Bryn Mawr custom has lost none of its. solemnity and in- spiring beauty�qualities to which the classes of '32 and '33 were keenly alive and which they strove to honor with their voices. The Sophomore class en- tered the cloisters singing, and carry- ing the red lantern of '33, and though difficulty in the first transition from verse to chorus somewhat marred the effects of the entrance, the Sophomores soon righted the mistake and gradually regained confidence. The final stanza, sung from the corner of the cloisters, made up in the feeling and beauty of its expression, for the unfortunate begin- ning. The Freshman ceremony was splendid in every way with no rough places evident in their choruses. The real merit of their performance is more remarkable when one considers that they had less than a week of actual practice. The Upperclassmen, grouped under Pem Arch, joined their voices in the Sophias Philai, as the Freshmen marched from the Library to fill their newly-acquired place between Juniors and Seniors. And Lantern Night ended with the singing of class and banner songs�perhaps rendered with little art, but certainly rich in feeling. Art Club Meets Again The first meeting of the Art Club of the season of 1920-30 will be held in Room R in Tay- lor Hall next Saturday morning, October 19, at 9J0 A! M. Work 'for the year will be held under the supervision of the visiting in- structor, Mr. Henry McCarter. of the Philadelphia Academy of the Fine Arts. They urge that all those who are interested in their plans for this year be Sure to come to their first class. Miss Park Cites Chapel Interests Tells of Many Attractions of Morning Chapel in the Old Days. SERVICES WERE QUAKER Varsity Players Outline Plans For This Year for prayer. In addition to the musical services we still have five or six with outside speakers, and 'for those we try to get tke very best ministers that we can. On the Sundays when there is neither an outside speaker nor a musical service, we have vesper services, "which are led either by a member of the faculty or a student. 'T hope you see the connection," Miss Speer went on to say, 'betweenJhe pas- sage I read from Tlte 11 'ay of Happiness and the question of Chapel^ It is so easyToput 'wo'rlftty*imWest ancfengag ment' first and forget chapel. I know it is not compulsory, and it would be un- thinkable to* have it so here. But I am not pleading with you to come every Sunday; nobody wants to force chapel on anybody. It is discouraging, though, for the choir to practice and for Mr. Willoughby to arrange an interesting program, and then for only twenty or thirty people to turn out. And it seems rather impolite to ask a well-known min- ister to come to speak to such a small audience. Few really good ministers like to desert their own large congregations for a mere handful. Where There's a WiU "Here at college one must go to classes and for two years one must be athletic; but one's spirit is neglected, or rather, its cultivation is left to the individual. There are, of course, some people who feel that their spirits are all right in the state of nature. Chapel is not for those. But I know that there are some people who do feel a need of something, and it is for those that we have chapel. "It is hard for one person to know what everyone thinks of chapel, and I do wish that if anyone has any sugges- tion to make, she would make some of them to me, in order that we may change chapel, if necessary, so that it will be something which more people want, rather than just one more thing to do. Don't just grumble that yon don't like chapel. If it means anything at all to you, stand behind it and come when you can, especially when there is an outside speaker or a musical service." ^ Commons Room, and defined themselves and their activities for all those who are interested in their plans for the current year. Ethel Dyer, '31, as Chairman of the Committee, spoke in its name. The- name "Varsity Players" actually gives a mistaken impression; there is no closed organization of people inter- ested in the dramatig activities^ of the college. ~The plan, at present, is to re- vert to the old name of "Varsity Dra- matt"'." this- wlU-isver-the-production , of .the two big plays of the year.

Varsity Dramatics Corn- Miss Dyer then suggested the revival of "The Players." This organi- zation died a natural death in the spring of 1927, for May Day, on the following year, seems to have prevented any kind of spontaneous dramatic work. This is the nearest approach to an experimental workshop that has ever been introduced to the college. The present ^lan is to allow the name of "Players" to stand, with no definite organization behind it. Any one in college who feels the urge to act, to direct, to paint scenery, to produce her own play, to design costumes or stage-sets, to stage manage, or to learn about lighting, need only tell it to the "Varsity Dramatics Committee." They will not interfere with the plans any more than their interference is wanted. They only feel that they should be told of people's ideas so that dates will not conflict, and so that those who are interested in different ends of a pro- duction may be brought together. It seems best to give these plays in Goodhart, if only for the sake of the stage experience, and of -the rather pro- fessional lighting plant. Ambitious pro- ducers will have to be satisfied with the simplest kinds of sets and costuming, and they are asked, at first, to limit themselves to/one-act plays. It is de- sired that thW plays may all be re- hearsed and .produced within the space of one week. There will be a very nominal charge to members of the audi- ences, because of the royalty, and other Sentimentality Takes Hold on the Masses At Thursday chapel, Dr. Fenwick spoke upon the significance of the Mac- Donald-Hoover conference. Dr. Fen- wick was introduced by President Park, who added that Miss MacDon- ald,*remembering her several visits to Bryn Mawr, had asked the President of the College to attend the luncheon given for her in Philadelphia; Miss Park also said that an invitation to visit Bryn Mawr had been extended to Miss MacDonald, but she was unable to accept due to her many engage- ments. % VI have always believed that the American people are subject to senti- mentality," Dr. Fenwick began. In spite of the building of skyscrapers, we react to the primitive appeal. This is being borne out in the faV that a crisis in world history is to be settled not by wary diplomats, but in the wild- erness of Virginia by two statesmen balanced on logs and smoking pipes. This ha"s appealed to the people, and if disarmament gets across in the back- This morning I am going to spend in country itis the pic,ure of these �*"te�- . � . . , ,..,." ... ,men that will have made it possible, talking about chapel itself, began Miss J n. ..��. � . * � � j en years ago an effort was made Park on Tuesday. It is no longer a daily religious service held in a room especially designated ior the purpose in Taylor Hall. Here there used to be an assembly room seating from two to three hundred people. Originally a very brief service conducted along Quaker lines was held every morning at nine o'clock. There was no music, and usually every- one sat for fifteen minutes watching the lights and shadows of the.windows; very occasionally someone spoke briefly. It ,was a Quaker meeting in miniature, which made a real break in the day. This kind of service easily gave place to a more regularized form under Presi- dent Thomas. Then the students began to sing, first with the aid of a small and squeaky organ and later with a piano. Last year 'a further change was made when we moved Chapel to Goodhart and changed the hour for the services. This year, at the suggestion of the Student Council, Tuesdays and Thursdays were created Chapel days instead of the other three days of the week when students have heavier schedules. It is strikingly significant that Chapel has always been a voluntary service at Mryn Mawr. However, T "ain frankly asking that all the students should have it in their mind to attend this service. to produce disarmament. Diplomats decided to work out some system of co-operative" dcfenseT It was a mag- nificent idea that it almost took the World War to produce. It was writ- ten in the covenant of the League of Nations, but it could not take shape, for the United States saw. in* the scheme nothing but a military ^alliance; the United States turned its back upon the very idea that its own statesmen had put before the world, and the plan for collective disarmament fell flat. In 1921 we called the Washington Conference to discuss a means for the limitation of armaments. The Confer- ence labored for three months and rep- resents the great work of Mr. Hughes. "I remember saying, 'The mountain* arc in labor, all you get born is a poof little mouse'." A ratio was estab- lished in regard to dreadnoughts, pro- portioning the number to be possessed by a given country according to its size. Otherwise the Conference came to no agreement. It was a fraud and a_ sham, but as realists we say that it was a first step. Then things went on as before;, the League again and again made efforts to produce disarmament, but was blocked by the stand of the United States. Finally, Mr. Coolidge called a confer- ence in Geneva that did not even pro- duce a 'ridiculous mils'; how could any- I believe it will be very pro&e fromltn,n8J>e accomplished when'admirals had.hccjj scut .to. reps**'";' the.Unite�* all it gives the students a chance to hear informally those speakers who have not the time Tor formal talks; secondly, they can hear certain professors speak on subjects which they have very much at heart; thirdly, it gives the students them- selves an opportunity to speak on general subjects, on conventions they have at- tended, or on college problems. I think there is something else in Chapel besides just this interest, Miss Park concluded. It is after all a* stand- ing still and turning aside frorn^thc busi- ness of the day. It is connected with obligations you will find outside of col- lege. In' national and international af- fairs the tide turns to joint action. Our joint action is symbolized by this gath- ering together. If we sow the seeds for such joint action here, we have gone some little distance toward accomplishing it. small expenses which are impossible to avoid. Mary Drake, '31, is having charge of the first of these plays; she will produce Synge's Riders to the Sea on Thursday evening, October 17. Miss Drake acted in the play last summer at Stockbridge, so she is well prepared, and knows how it should be done. After Miss Dyer had finished outjining the plans for the coming year, Vffes Drake gave an inter- pretive reading of the play, which is con- sidered one of the greatest works of modern English literature, and then she held informal tjyouts for the leadin, parts. States? You cannot expect admirals to advocate disarmament. After the failure of the conference in 1927, nothing was done. Now, seated on logs,'Mr! Hoover and Mr. MacDonald are discussing parity. The United States wants a small number of. 10,000-ton cruisers. There is no parity in this, even though the total tonnage is the same. France wants all submarines; Japan wants no sub- marines. Mr. MacDonald comes and says 'parity.' The Kellogg Pact says that we tend to grow good, but th'c legal value of the Kellogg Pact is nil. Yet there is a sentimental back woods feeling that we have renounced war. Now at least there will be no more talk of ten-inch guns. In other words, the ground has been laid for an-agree- ment still to be reached, "just because the heart of America has been touched." More Music On February 12 the orcfiestra of the Curtis Institute of-Music will play at Bryn Mawr, under the leadership of Emil Mlynarski. All subscribers to the Series are invited to this concert, which was made possible through the kind do- nation made to Bryn Mawr by Mrs. Mary Louise Curtis Bok.

This will be the second winter of these entertainments, and, in accordance with the plan inaugu- rated last season, the Series will include representations of the Arts of Music, Drama, and Ballet. The* Series is one* of the biggest undertaking* of Bryn Mawr College, and it is especially in- cumbent upon the students to support it The first event will take place on Fri- day evening, October 25. It is to be the "Gavrilov Ballet Modcrne." The full Russian'Ballet will be here with its lead- ing dancers and^Corps de Ballet, and orchestra, with the original scenery and costumes. Alexandre Gavrilov, who heads the performance, is a native of Moscow, and received his training in the Imperial Ballet Schools of Moscow and Pctrograd. While appearing at the Marinsky Imperial Theatre in Petrograd he accepted an invitation to join Serge de Diaghileff's famous company and re- mained in that organization from 1914 until 1920. On the American tours of the company he alternated with Nijinsky in the leading roles of Petroushxa, Scheherezadc, Spectre de la Rose, Sylphides, and other of Diaghileff's fin- est productions. After withdrawing from the company, Mr. Gavrilov toured Europe as the head of his own organiza- tion until 1923, when he returned to America, where he is now permanently resident Since his- remarkable success last season in Philadelphia, he has been engaged as Ballet Master of the Phila- delphia Civic Opera Company with Vera �Strelska as Prima Ballerina.
