WILSONVILLE, Ore., May 23, 2012— Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced that its FloEFD™ computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software product was used by all state finalists in the Fourth Annual Real World Design Challenge (RWDC), a national aviation design competition that was held on April 21, 2012 in Washington, D.C. The 2012 RWDC National Champion is the Baldwin High School "Kansas Tornadoes" team from Baldwin City, Kansas, who received their first place award at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum IMAX Theater. This is the second time Baldwin High School has won this national championship, having received this honor in 2010.
More than 600 high schools participated in this program. Thirty high school teams from across the country were selected for the national competition. This year's aviation challenge problem was to design an efficient, low-carbon emission and environmentally friendly personal Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) that could support two people and fly from Kitty Hawk, N.C. to Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, OH at a minimum cruise altitude of 1,000 feet above ground level. The competition requirements included creating the tail and wings of a LSA using a computer design program, conducting aerodynamic, propulsion, sizing, weight and balance analyses to optimize the aircraft, followed by a team essay.
The fastest growing educational program in the United States, the RWDC—which is based on a public and private partnership—provides tools and resources to the schools to support Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education. The Mechanical Analysis Division (MAD) of Mentor Graphics donated its leading FloEFD computational fluid dynamics software to all participating schools. The aeronautical challenge required the teams to apply the software and develop an essay on their findings, which were presented to a panel of expert judges. The judges, including Erich Buergel, general manager of the Mechanical Analysis Division at Mentor Graphics, selected the finalists and winning teams. Visit the RWDC website at www.realworlddesignchallenge.org
The Baldwin High School team members are (freshman) Quint Heinecke, (juniors) Kaitlyn Barnes, Abby Clem, Carrie Dietz, Mackenzie Johnson, and Austin Kraus. The team coach and enhanced learning instructor at Baldwin High School was Pam Davis.
"The Real World Design Challenge is an outstanding opportunity for schools, government and industry to come together and ensure America's continued leadership in aerospace innovation," said Dr. Ralph K. Coppola , PTC senior director of government and strategic education programs, and the director of the Real World Design Challenge. "We applaud the commitment of our nation's high school students, instructors, advisors and mentors, demonstrating the innovation, teamwork and problem-solving tasks to compete in this challenge—and we are proud of Baldwin High School for winning our national competition twice."
"I commend the students and their instructors from across the country for participating in the RWDC since they are contributing to the future of aerospace engineering," stated Erich Buergel, general manager of the Mechanical Analysis Division at Mentor Graphics. "Using PTC design and structural simulation tools and Mentor's Creo-embedded FloEFD computational fluid dynamics simulation software during the challenge, high school students with little or no training in the use of technology were able to generate accurate, high-performance simulations to enhance their final product designs, with ease and confidence."

Hi Friends.
At this stage if you find that it has excessive moisture and can not be molded properly being excessively sticky, then only add the bread crumbs.
Take the mix in your palm and make cutlets. Shape them as per your liking.
Take a non stick pan and smear it with a tbsp of oil and shallow fry the cutlets 3-4 at a time. They have to be handled very delicately. Once one side is done and nicely golden brown turn the cutlets and shallow fry on the other side. These do not need much cooking as most of the ingredients used are already cooked.
Serve them with tomato sauce or green chutney.
These can be served for breakfast or lunch with bread or as a roll or with tea as a snack.

ege News VOL. XVII, NO. 4 WAYNE AND BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1930 PRICE, 10 CENTS Miss Park Reveals Freshman Statistics Entering Class Represents Nine- teen States and England. < 25% HAVE CREDIT AVES. The annual statement of the sta- tistics for the Freshman class was the occasion for a little quiet rejoicing on the part of President Park since the class of 1934 represents a further ad- vance in the realization of two of her most cherished aims. Over one-fpurth of the class entered with a credit aver- age, and the proportion of students entering from public schools is rising, in comparison to the proportions found in the-ftlasses of '29, '30, '31 and '32. President Park devoted the chapel periods of Tuesday, October 14, and Thursday, October 23, to a detailed discussion of the subject. The Freshman class represents nineteen States, with one member from England, but sixty-six of these Freshmen come from Pennsylvania and its boundary States, New York, New Jersey and Maryland. That is, over one-half of the class lives within two and one-half hours by rail of the college. If southern Connecticut, on the north, and Washington, on the south, are added, three-fourths of the- class is accounted for. New England has contributed fourteen students, the Middle West nine, the South five, the Pacific Coast two, and England one. The reasons for this small geographi- cal distribution of, students, which means a large group from nearby, and little variety in the student body, are fairly clear. The State universities of other sections of the country are in � Continued on Page Two Liberal Club Announces Industrial Discussions The first meeting of the Liberal Club was held October 22, and there are now over fifty members. The Executive Com- mittee'this year is as follows: President, Annamae Grant; Frances Robinson, Virginia Butterworth. MiSs Grant spoke about the purpose of the dub and the plans for the year. The club is for the discussion of political and social problems and international rela- tions. There will be several speakers, � probably one a month, and regular meet- ings of the group to discuss the speeches and other questions in which they are in- terested. The program for the first three meetings will be given over to a discus- sion of communism, the "new capital- ism," and socialism as possible remedies for our industrial difficulties. Mr. Scott Nearing, on Friday, October 31, at 8:15 in the Commons Room, will give the first of these lectures, Communism in America. The Liberal Club is affiliated with the League for Industrial Democracy and the Foreign Policy Association. The club should be of the greatest importance to students because it is the only campus organization wherein they can find con- tact with the important social changes with which they will later be� faced. There is a growing consciousness in Young America that all is not right with, the world, and Jhat students must be brought together to investigate the pres- ent evils and find some sort of remedy. Membership in the Liberal Club is open to all those who are interested. The Liberal Club of Swarthmore Col- lege is sponsoring a conference on the bituminous coal industry Friday evening and Saturday, November seventh and eighth. The speakers are the foremost American authorities: Norman Thomas, F. G. Tryon, Oscar Ameringcr, H. S. Raushenbush, Arthur Garfield Hays, and eight others. There will be a dance fol- lowing the Saturday evening session. Programs are posted in all the halls. ] Everyone who wishes to go may spend the week-end at Swarthmore College. The fee is one dollar for the week-end. See Annamae Grant, 56 Rockefeller Hall, for registration cards. Teachers at Bates House Lead Adventurous Life (Specially contributed by Patsy J. Taylor, '31.) "Bread, Teacher, bread," is the daily thrice repeated chorus at Bates House on the Jersey coast. The Italian tene- ment children whom we take there during^ June and July love the sea and tlje sun, but are mortally insulted because they are made to finish their green vegetables before they can have a chance to fill up on their beloved bread. A few girls from College always go down there for clean-up week right after exams, and enjoy a delightful change from intellectual labor when they freshen up things about the house with paint, and lay out rows of combs and tooth brushes for the horde which is to come. Then the young element from Thompson Street arrives�dyked out in all the finery which their fond mothers have been able to scVape to- gether, clutching all-day suckers, sneakers (to be used to save their shoes) and their nearest of kin in their hands. Some are -boisterous, some are solemn, some arc tearful, all are a good deal the worse for the in- evitable train soot. Before the day is over, however, they have had theft baths, and in the clean Bates clothes are hardly to be recognized as the same children. From then on their days are filled with eating, sleeping, and play� both at the beach and in the back yard. Of course each teacher has several hours a day when she is not expected to be with the children, and at night there are always the movies and the amusement pier on the boardwalk after stories have been told and each room of children has promised that they will not make a sound. The whole two weeks that you are there�and you may stay more�is a succession of completely surprising events. The children are unlike any you have probably ever seen before. They tell you wierd legends about things, they have a most original code of honor�if it can be called that� and now and then one will confide in you that his father runs a saloon be- hind so-and-so's father's barber shop. An uncle on the police force or in the taxi business is looked up to with great admiration. All this is perfectly natural to them, but they cannot un- derstand why we smoke. A little boy remarked very scornfully one day, "I wouldn't let my sister smoke cigarettes. It isn't nice." �The origin of all this was the gift some years, ago of a house at Long "Branch by Mrs. H. Roswell Bates to be used during the summer by Bryn Mawr as a vacation home for tenement children in memory of her husband. The financial end of it is cared for fafrly adequately by our share of the League pledges and by the proceeds from sandwiches. The real problem in connection with Bates is one with which we were confronted more than usual this last summer. It is the lack of "teachers" (girls from College who go for two weeks or more to take care of the children). It seems a pity that more people do not realize how ex- tremely interesting the whole thing is, and thus never have the unique ex- perience to be found at Bates. Who really wants to miss knowing children who, when told to go back to bed, reply as did Billy Padula, "I can't go to sleep, Miss Connie is giggling too hard"? The Foreign Students Five Foreign Students Have Varied Education Competition For Lantern Board The "Lantern Magazine" announces its competition for new members of the Business Staff.

Fricdcl Roelnrte. Mrs. Miskolozy and Mary Margaret Allen. Baudelaire Initiates Symbol of Sensation Character Supplants Beauty in Strange and Frightful Psychology of Death. POE AIDS INNOVATIONS (Specially contributed by /.. Mandell and E. Fredrick.) M\ Hazard began hisTourth lecture on "I-a Poesic Francaisc cntre 1815 ct 1914" with an account of the life of ISaudelaire, which, he said, was inseparable from his work. Born in 1821 at Paris of a father too old to give him any companionship, and of a mother who remarried soon after her husbands death, liaudelaire exper- ienced a most unhappy childhood. As a child he knew the violent emotion of hatred, for he was in open revolt against his stepfather. He wastxpelled in 1839 from the lycee Louis-le Grand, despite his brilliance as a student, and his stepfather, to prevent his frequenting the quarticr latin, sent him off to the Indies. Before reaching his destination, he decided to re- turn to Paris, where, after having dissi- pated a small fortune, he was forced to earn his living as a hack-writer. From 1848-1857 he experienced some strange ad- ventures. At the end of this period he began his chef-d'oeuvre, Les I'lcurs du Mai. the publication of which brought upon his head a fine and a condemnation. He died in 1867 after an attack of paraly- sis. The second part of M. Hazard's lecture was concerned with a discussion of Bau- delaire's psychological development which was complex and contradictory. He was passionately fond of the arts, especially music, which heretofore had not received much attention in French literature. In his work there was a strange psychology at the same time artificial, ridiculous, and frightful. The idea of death became with him a veritable obsession. In his desire to throw off this nostalgia he took refuge in dreaming and in traveling on sea and land, but nothing gave him a sane and whole inner life. He wanted to know everything: souls, nature, and even God. In hi* desire to attain the infinite he was comparable, in the words of M. Hazard, to "une cloche felee." CaaUaard aa Pace Thrr* Major Subject Discussed in Chapel by Mrs. Manning On Tuesday, October 2H. Mrs. Man- ning spoke in Chapel concerning the change in emphasis in the curriculum in the past ten or fifteen years. The origi- nal system of a major group of two subjects based on the Johns Hopkins plan, laid but moderate emphasis on a given field. The first change came six years ago when'students were required to take a single major, with allied work grouped arouitd the subject chosen. At present, under the new curriculum, three jrers of work i- required in the major instead of two. During the third year. the student advances from the examina- tion system with rote learning of the course to the individual collection and arrangement of data for reports. Honors work goes still further in this line. A merit average in the major is also re- quired by recent changes, The emphasis on the major, as shown by the three years of required work, aims at inculcation of, <>r acquaintance with,- advanced scholastic methods, not at spe- cialization of the individual student. Her third year gives the student a chance to work with previously collected material, moulding it in her own way. She ob- tains a knowledge and experience of mctliodv a sense of tln-ir dreariness and inadequacies perhaps,-which is invaluable if she desires or, does not desire, to go on. The individual is free to change her major as often as she wishes, provided that she can include in her schedule three years' application to the subject she finally chooses. The faculty make allow- ances for indecision and changes. The three years of work should be considered, not as a training in one's life work, but as an introduction to scholastic method and as affording an inside view of a more intimate familiarity with the work being done in one field of knowledge. Two Holders of Scholarship* Combine Practical With Theoretical Work. VALVES IN STATISTICS The holders of the five Bryn Mawr scholarships for foreign women; Miss � Allen, Miss Boehnie, Miss. Liesveld, Mrs. Miskolozy and Miss Thireau, rep- resent five different Furopean coun- tries: Fngland. Germany, Holland, Hungary and France. While one is forced, this early in the graduate year, to confine any article concerning these students to the >tatistics of their edu- cation, the statistics have the iiiV liliil possibility of embodying, for the American student, conditions and a background richer and. if not richer, at least quite different from the condi- tions of study over here. Miss Mary Margaret Allen, of Hornclnirch. England, studied at the London School of Economics, the.Uni- versity of London, and received the degree of B.Sc. (Econ.) there in 1930. She was interested in athletics as well as economics during her undergraduate years and intends to do both here. At Collier, Williams and --------Berkeley Elected by '33 The class of 1933 has elected officers for the coming years as follows: Presi- dent, Margaret Collier; Vice President. Josephine .-.Williams; Secretary. Ella Berkeley. During her Freshman year Miss Col- . . . � Caatlaard �� I"a�� Tar* present, she is working in the depart- ment of Politics and she is doing a certain amount of practical research, outside .of Bryn Mawr, on the Depart- ment of Public Works in Philadelphia. Miss Fridcl Boehnie. from Dresden, Germany, attended the Hohere Maed- chenschulc in Dresden from 1920 until 1926 when she received the Reifezeug- nis. From April to October of 1920, she did practical work in the export and accounting department of the Metal Art Manufacturing Company. During the rest of 1926 and part of 1927, Miss Boehnie spent two se- mesters in the department of economi- cal sciences at the Technische Hoch- schule fur Welt-handel at � Vienna. From 1928 until 1930, she spent five semesters at the University of Cologne in the Social Economics department (jo'd. in February, 1930, she received the Diplom-Kaufmanu from the Uni- versity of Cologne. Unlike Miss Hoeluiie, Miss Diederika Liesveld, of Holland,* studied exclusively at one place, the University of Amsterdam, and has her degree of Doctor of Liter- ature from there. She has studied Philology extensively but plans to de- vote her time at Bryn Mawr to Litera- ture, especially to carry out her plan for a dissertation on the subject of Hymn's Influence on Swedish Literature under the direction of Dr. Chew. Mrs. Martine Andree Miskolozy, from Buda- pest. Hungary, studied until 1918 at Kolozsvw (now Cluj Koumania). Since then her work has been highly varied, divided between the practical and the scholarly. She has been an assistant at the University of Buda- pest in the Department of Social Eco- nomics and Social Politics and has studied social conditions in her own country. In the field of practical ex- perience, she his occupied the position of secretary in the first social school in Budapest. In that city she was also honored with the position of chief of the Red Cross Industrial Research Department and, in addition to her ex- ecutive positions, she belonged, as a member, to several organizations for International Relations in Hungary. At Bryn Mawr. she plans to study American methods of industrial re- search and to travel with the intention of ^inspecting the well-organized fac- tories in America. Finally, Miss Odette Thireau, of Joigny, France* at- tended the University ot fans from 1925 until 1928 and worked in the de- partment of Chemistry. From 1928 until 1930, she studied at the University of Nancy and received the Cicenciee es Sciences there in 1929 and the degree of Ingenieur Chimiste in 1930. Because the year is so young, it is

A friend of mine asked me if I would like to run Mac OS 10.5.6 on my Toshiba Satellite A305-6862 laptop, are you kidding me, Hell yes. He picked up the laptop and about 4 hours later called me and said it's ready. I grabbed my Final Cut Studio 2 disk and took off. When I got there sure enough my Toshiba Satellite A305-6862 laptop was running Mac OS 10.5.6 and iLife '08 had already been installed. I gave him my Final Cut Studio 2 disk and he installed Final Cut Studio 2 and it worked. Can you believe that? My Toshiba Satellite A305-6862 laptop will now boot in Vista or Mac OS 10.5.6 and I can actually edit video on my PC using a Mac application Final Cut Pro 6.
I know all of this is hard to believe and that's why I've put together the video below.

�. ���'.� [ f. Volumi VIl. No. 26. BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, MAY .11, 1921 Price 10 Centi Pkolo by J. Parker Rolje GLEE CLUB PINAFORE' VOTER'S NONPARTISAN LEAGUE ADVOCATED BY DR. HAMILTON For Declare Women Must Unite Govermental Reform "Women must come together as non-par- tisan voters," said Dr. Alice Hamilton, assistant profeSsor of the Harvard Medical School, in Chapel, on Friday morning. "We count for very little now," she as- serted, "and they are trying to make us strong party members so that we never can count in any peculiar way. But women have a very different contribution to bring to civfc problems, and it is their contribu- tion which must change the old standards so that the world may really forge ahead. Women are primarily interested in human life; they have a different sense of values from men. They can "discuss measures of government disinterestedly, with no ulterior motives." Dr. Hamilton, who is the first woman to be appointed for research in industrial dis- eases, told of a recent meeting of the League of Women Voters she had at- tended in Cleveland, and of the broad- minded and constructive way in which questions of government had been discussed there. She compared this with a legisla- tive session in Springfield, where several bills were passed directly against the wishes of all the women present, who were unor- ganized and so able to do nothing. "We have within us," she ended, "the faculties which can change the present de- plorable conditions. If we vote in a party, we can accomplish nothing. The way to make our wishes count is to come together in a Non-Partisan League." MENDELSSOHN CLUB TO GIVE CONCERTJu^N CLOISTERS An unaccompanied mixed chorus of sev- enty-five voices will be the outstanding feature of the concert to be given at 8.15 o'clock on Saturday night, in the Cloisters, by the Mendelssohn Club of Philadelphia.

Schcnck. Professor of French. The Glee Club, on Friday and Saturday nights, under Miss Kimbrough's able lead- ership, gave "Pinafore" before an audience that not only showed its approval by great applause, but rose, again and again, with a roar to the wit and nonsense that the bis gaze off the great man and was quite evidently seeing a future for himself that included white satin breeches and an em- broidered coat. The capital hornpipe of the little midshipman won him a round of applause and an encore. 'Hie audience, however, seemed to touch its' highest spots with Little Buttercup and _. .... . i r- i Dick Deadeye. The rosy* good humor of actors got over With such cleverness. For |, . . _ ' � J ? . .,, , Little Buttercup was so irresistible that not only was the good old fun of "Pina- fore" there, intact�the fun that had de-' lighted the mothers and grandmothers of these players, but there was distinctly a 1921 point of view added to .much of it. I am sure there was never so fantas- tically conventioilal a father and daugh- ter as this Captain Corcoran ' aiVd this I Josephine, and that no actors ever put more solemn irony into those noble lines than did Miss Garrison and Miss Minott. In the same glorious tradition of propriety, poise and pulchritude was Miss Teft as Hebe. She did not allow the- audience to forget for an instant the gulf fixed between her and the ladies of the chorus, nor did these latter refrain from availing them- selves of the advantages of their more strategic, if humbler, position. The con- stant flirting going on between sailors and girls, always maintained, be it said, within the limits of the best Victorian tradition, furnished a vividness of setting that is unusual in opera or musical comedy, whether done by professionals or ama- teurs. The central figure of all this young romance was Ralph Rackstraw, straight and handsome, whose sweet, high tenor, although slight, carried at times a good deal of emotion. He was admirably sup- ported by those two stalwart, deep-voiced seamen, Bill Bobstay and Bob Begket, and all the jolly tars, who (whatever the psychologists say against this theory) were certainly transferring the team play learned on the athletic field to team play in the chorus. A very subtle piece of acting was done by Miss Kirkland in the role of the Ad- miral. One could fairly see the thin* nervous, shriveled little hands that were so carefully hidden under shiny white gloves, but betrayed by every gesture the charac- teristics of the fussy, pompous old sea- lord. There was a dominating quality about the Admiral that held the attention of the audience whenever he was about It was no wonder that he enthralled abso- lutely the midshipmite, who never took everyone rejoiced to have the vicious mix- ing up of "those children" result for her Elizabeth Cecil '21, Wins First Place in Individual Championship Piling up a total of 36.33 points towards the class championship. 1924 easily won its way to first place in the final track meet last Saturday morning. With 27.1 points, ,,1922 took 'second place, and 1921 came third with a score of 23.2 points. First place in the individual champion- ship went to E. Cecil, '21, with a total of 20.2 points.

She gave a laugh to her audience with every line, and many between lines, and made of Dick Deadeye a more comical, hideous, black villain- and scoundrel than ever trod the boards of melodrama. -Comparisons between amateur and pro- fessional performances are, as a rule, odious, no two things being equal; but, in this case, there are distinctly things to be said for the amateurs. The level of the acting, both in principals and chorus, seemed to me well above that of the aver- age musical comedy, and the choruses were really excellent and sang their foolish music and their foolish words with delightful humor. The audience showed beyond the shadow of a doubt what it thought of Miss Minott's lovely voice. The enuncia- tion throughout was above reproach. Miss Geyer, at the piano, performed little less than a miracle in giving just the right amount of support to principals and chorus alike. Finally, from Miss Kimbrough's compelling conducting came an energy and will that again and again got the response it .deserved. Many points and many persons should be noted in connection with this produc- tion. Mr. Grant should have great credit for the results of his coaching in the sing- ing and acting; Miss Chil'ds for her stage- managing. The disposition of the big chorus on the little stag* was admirable. To the chairmen of scenery and costumes was due the delight of the color effects of the maidens' dresses^ against a sky blue that was lovely by day and lovelier still by night, thanks to the clever Lights Commit- tee. Nor should Miss Morrison's dashing ship, at full sail, on the programme cover, be forgotten. Between the acts, Miss Foot, in an elo- quent appeal for the Students' Building, (Continued on Pa�e 2) won third place, with 11.2 points to her credit. Winning both relays in the two meets, 1924 improved its original time in the new event (the 75-yard relay, with 20 persons to a team)--*f)y 22-5 seconds, establishing the record at 2 minutes 50 seconds. In this race 1921, again second, made better time than the winners in the first meet; 1923 and 1921 took second place in the first and second meets, respectively, but 1923 s total time was less. ,, (Continued on P��e 6) LIBRARY HA8 EARLY EDITIONS AND VALUABLE COLLECTIONS Among the 85,000 bound volumes form- ing the Bryn Mawr Library are a number of early editions and several valuable spe- cialized collections. Of the very earliest are the "Philip- picae" and "In Verrurri" of Cicero, bound together in 1495, and a rare volume oi Greek dissertations, dated 1497. Of the six- teenth century are several volumes, among which is a very beautiful edition of Hol- lingsheads, printed in 1587, which is one of the greatest treasures of the library. Beside this is a volume of "Le Sei Gior- nati," of Erizzo, 1568, dedicated on the title page to Frederico Gonzaga, and five or six Latin works of the* same period- Of a later date are volumes of Spenser, Ben Jonson and Goethe. Three particularly noteworthy collections have been presented to the college. Of these the largest is the collection of Pro- fessor Sauppe, of Gottingen, including-over ten thousand volumes, given in 1893 by Miss Garrett. There is also the Semitic library of Professor Amiaud, of Paris, of Hebrew, Syriac and Assyrian works par- ticularly, and including several now out of print, and the 500-volume collection of Mr. Albert J. Edwards on religion.

V. The College News VOL. XXIII, No. 18 BRYN MAWR AND WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 17, 1937 m�SEf12l&Zn}S�&&m0W~m, PRICE 10 CENTS Personal Comment Voiced by Faculty On Man Lectures .Spur to Discussion Praised, Opinions Vary on Success OF Integration OTHER DEPARTMENTS WISH TO CONTRIBUTE There seems to be unanimous agree- ment among faculty members about the success of the lectures on man. In their individual comments they stressed first of all the value per sc of such experiments and the stimulus they give to outside discussion. Their reasons for the former were varied, some closely related to their own aca- demic fields, some stated as personal points of view. Mr. Anderson, of the Department of Economics, thinks that the lectures started discussion which would not otherwise have taken place, and that for this reason they were important and extremely successful. He does not mean the discussion that took place after each lecture, but the talk- ing over between students of the prob- lems presented by the speakers. He thinks that another series of the same sort would be a good idea, but, he adds, by people of the same compe- tence. In this he was seconded by Mrs. de Laguna, of the Department of Phi- losophy, who suggested a new series another year and on another subject. She is equally enthusiastic about the lectures as a whole and approves of the discussions, which seemed to her to show real interest on the part of the students. In this case she thinks the idea of an outside speaker was a good one; but that the integration of the lectures was not wholly suc- cessful. It is interesting to note the differ- ences of opinion on this point. In- tegration was Miss Fairchild'8 espe- cial problem. There seemed to her to be a decided attempt to achieve this between the subjects of Miss Du- bois and Mr. MacKinnon. Miss Du- bois's representation was particularly valuable to the Department of Social Economy because of its interest in anthropology. In future lectures this department would like to take some part itself, and is in favor of as much integration as possible in the field of the social sciences. This sort of in- tegration could be worked out, and in fact, is going to be worked out in an v"T experiment of the same kind�the coming of Mrs. Wooton, who will at- tempt to tie together the work of dif- ferent departments. Mr. Michels, of the Physics Depart- ment, saw one very interesting result, which is related to Miss Fairchild's Continued on Pare Four COLLEGE CALENDAR Wednesday, March 17.�Mov- ies, Emil und die Detektive.

Opening Setting Will Represent Authentic Street Scene of 17th Century "TRUE LOVE" EMERGES VICTORIOUS IN PLOT League Pushes Drive to Collect Clothing For Bryn Mawr Hospital Thrift Shop Sale at Minimum Prices Serves Two-Fold Purpose of Economy For Clinic and Buyers From now until Spring vacation be on the lookout for sweaters, skirts, blouses, anything you might wish to exclude from your wardrobe. Some- one else can use them. The Bryn Mawr League' is sponsoring a drive for the Thrift Shop of the Bryn Mawr Hospital. They need the clothes and we can undoubtedly supply them. The Thrift Shop sells articles of clothing to the poor at prices lower than the stores. The idea is not to get money from the poor, but to help them maintain their self-respect by putting the clothes at a price within their pocketbeoks. People hate to take charity. The Hospital realises that and is doing its best to dispense with UV The money they get from the clothes is used to maintain clinics and to provide milk for babies in the baby clinic Therefore, a two-fold benefit is reaped from the maintenance nf the Thrift Shop. Anything the under- graduates can do to give the shop more material would be helping not only the poor buyers, but also the Hospital. The Hospital, needless to say, is a great advantage to the College. Only half a mile away, it stands ready for any emergency which may confront us. It has served us numerous times and has never asked us for any help in return. For this reason, both Mrs. Chadjwick-Collins and the Bryn Mawr League wish this drive to be success- ful, and it will be only if supported by every student in the College. There will be representatives in each hall to whom you may bring your contributions. If for no other reason than to clean out your closet or wardrobe, get rid of your old clothes now, even if it -puts the rag man out'of work.-Wie following are representatives for the drive: Letitia Brown, '37�Merion.

Barbara Aachincloss, '40 � Wjmd- ham. �it H� When the curtains part on the French Club production of Moliere's UScole des Maris next Saturday eve- ning a street in seventeenth century Paris will be recreated. All the var- ied traffic, including mischievous gam- ins, flirtatious vegetable vendors, cob- blers and tinkers, pass across the stage as they once thronged the busy Pont Neuf. Against this background the course of true love runs somewhat roughly for poor Isabelle and her de- voted lover, Valere. They at last succeed in duping ber stern guardian, who has taken it for granted that his love for Isabelle is requited. In the meantime the gentler methods of Sganarelle's brother, Ariste, who has brought up Lenor, sister of Isabelle, are justified when Lenor assures him of her scorn for young gallants such as her sister finds so intriguing and of her love for him. In the end every- one is so happy, save for the disil- lusioned Sganarelle, that they join in a merry dance before they go off to be entertained in the house of Ariste, and the crieur des heures passes to wish the audience a good night. L'Scole des Maris, although it is given less often than the classic ex- amples of Moliere's theater, is never- theless an excellent example of the classical French theater in its more comic form. Moliere is perhaps best known as a satirist of the less com- mendable characters he saw about him; and Sganarelle (whose name is a favorite with Moliere) is quite as detestable and unfortunate as any character "he drew. The scenery was designed by Sgana- relle himself�Peggy Otis�and has been constructed under the direction of Anne Wyld and Jeanne Quiatgaard. Costumes have been obtained from Christie's in New York for the lead- ing roles, and the others made by Mary Whalen and Anne Axon. Kate Bingham has assembled the properties. The orchestra, which plays three over- tures of the time of the play, includes Madge Haas, Naymi lijpplin, Louise Herrony4lelen ifamiltort and Helen Cobtt^ ^The songs ai/d street dries are the result of careful research by the di- rector, Mademoiselle Rey, and are en- tirely authentic They are taken for the most part from descriptions of the Pont Neuf, which in spite of its name, is the oldest bridge in Paris; it was the center of the city in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. SOVIET ART WILL BE REVIEWED BY BRINTON Mr. Christian Brinton, internation- ally- known critic and author, will speak on Art in the Soviet Union on Sunday, March 21, at 5 p. m. in the Deanery. His talk will be illustrated with lantern slides, Mr. Brinton will discuss what social stabilization in Russia and the initi- ation of the two Five Year Cultural Plans have done for the progress of art in the Soviet. He has traveled extensively in the U. S. S. R. and has made a detailed first-hand study of modern Russian painting. This lec- ture is one of a series of six which Mr. Brinton is presenting on various phases of modern art, with emphasis on the Russian. He is sponsored in this talk by the America^ Russian In- stitute.

Haniel Long Analyzes Own Creative Method Main Interest is in People in All Walks of Life Deanery, March 11.�Frankness and self-confidence characterized Mr. Han- iel Long's approach to an analysis of his creative method in Pittsburgh Memoranda. The theme, the care, the research and experience which went into its composition show why the book has been termed "an exciting dossier of American times." Mr. Long's main interest is people, and particularly the people of Pittsburgh, in all walks of life. Two prologues were composed before Mr. Long felt that he had successfully stated his theme, his purpose in writ- ing the book as shown in the last lines of the present prologue: " . . . we to explore and hope, making the filaments of a new compass out of our need to come to terms with ourselves, with the others who live life with us, and th<* life that lives all." The first prologue, completed in 1915, was considerably influenced by Santayana's Three Philosophical Poets. Eight years later he returned to the philosophy he had learned from James and Royce while attending Harvard because he felt that Santayana and these three great poets on which he had written could not help him visu- alize pictures of the city which he wished to portray in poetry. The second version included a pro- logue making "objective comments; characters from Dante, Goethe and Lucretius, as well as a presentation of the inside of the city which was closer to reality than the previous pro- logue. H* felt that he must see all parts of the city through his own eyes. During its composition he wtft aided, but not satisfied, by Sandburg's Chi- cago poems and Master's,Spoon River Anthology. Before the third version of the "Memoranda," Pittsburgh began to be documented. Mr. Long selected rec- ords and letters of men during emergencies when they are most them- selves. Homestead, a record of the famous-strike, rs written in three di- visions: the first gives prose records; the second, background^ the third, poetic comment. As Mr. Long says, these accounts of Carnegie, Frick and Berkmann show a remarkable beauty even though it is cruel. A first, draft of the memoranda in blank verse proved unsatisfactory be- cause it involved changing the exact words of records and letters which have been selected to give each sec- tion a quality of its own. Feeling that what the modern poet has to say is of a complicated nature because it includes many fields, Mr. Long feels Continued on Pace Klva PHILOSOPHY CLUB MEETINGS Leigh Steinhardt,"^?, will read a paper on Time at a meeting of the Philosophy Club Thursday, March 18, at 4.30 p. m. in the Common Room. After Current Events on Tuesday, March 23, a second meeting will be held at which Helen Fisher, '37, will read a paper on Coming Into Being. The two papers present opposite points of view and,will be followed later by a similar pair of conflicting opinions. Council Discusses Problems Involved In Press Board Value In of Honor Averages General Work Will Be Considered ' v PLANS FOR SCIENCE BUILDING ARE SHOWN Miss Park's House, March 11.�To the March meeting of the College Council Miss Park showed the present blueprints of the new science build- ing, announced that ground would probably be broken by the end of this year. The Council discussed at length the advantages to students and the disadvantages to the college of a press club and proposed that the issue be shelved for a year until student in- terest and the new publicity director should decide one way or the other. Miss Park asked all members to think over the value one way or the other of general honors (cum laude, magna cum laude, summa cum laude) with a degree and bring their opinions to the May meeting. Mrs. Collins explained that a press club is a student organization which writes up the releases from the college to newspapers. At Mount Holyoke where the press club is the most satisfactory, the publicity di- rector supervises the gathering of the news, teaches journalistic writing to board members and approves all re- leases before they are sent out. Each student is paid by space by the news- paper to which she sends her stories. At present all news from Bryn Mawr is written and sent out free of charge by the Publications Office. Letters from other college press boards point out that there is no advantage to the college publicity in a press club, but that it does providej>ractical training for students interested in journalism and in some cases limited sources of income for needy students. It gives students a feeling of greater respon- sibility and interest in the college, while it would not change the college publicity in the eastern .pjtiea, it might spread information about the college in cities and towns of the Far West. The issue is a difficult one the Coun- cil believes, because Bryn Mawr has never permitted idle personal publi- Contlnueil on Page Six MIKADO STAGING WILL FOLLOW D'OYLY CARTE With the date of the production of The Mikado only six weeks away, definite _plans are being completed by the costume and scenery committees with an eye to making the college ver- sion of the operetta appear as much like a professional job as possible. Mr. Alwyne, who is directing the production, wants the scenery design to be traditional, and has given the committee headed by Anne Wyld, '38, pictures of the latest sets used by the D'Oyly Carte'Opera Company. Jeanne Quistgaard, '38, is copying these de- signs. She explains that there will be one basic set, consisting of a painted panoramic backdrop and side flats. The committee hopes to be able to rent the backdrop somewhere in Phila- . delphia, but if they can't find a proper one they will paint one themselves. Costumes, too, are to be copied af- ter those recently used by D'Oyly Carte Company. The traditional ki- mono, sash, and chrysanthemum com- bination, is to be replaced by a richer, more realistic costume. Anne Louise Axon, '40, chairman of the committee says that the women will wear long tunics covered by richly decorated ki- mono-like robes; their hats will � be similar to those worn by Chinese coolies. The men will be dressed in full bloomers, and will have fantastic headpieces. Self Government Election The Self-Government Associ- ation takes great pleasure in an- nouncing the election of Suzanne Williams, '38, as President ef the Board.

Today, we'll start with the quarterbacks and examine who's in the mix to play, either now or in the future.
The returnees: AJ McCarron, rising senior; Blake Sims, junior; Phillip Ely, sophomore; Alec Morris, redshirt freshman; Cooper Bateman, freshman; Parker McLeod, freshman; Luke Del Rio, freshman.
Coming in the fall: none.
Outlook: When Alabama opens practice, the Tide will have a sizeable crowd of quarterbacks working out under second-year assistant coach Doug Nussmeier.
Alabama has four scholarship quarterbacks returning from last year's national championship team and two more signees who registered for classes in time to go through spring workouts. In addition, there's Del Rio, who spurned major college scholarship offers to walk on at Alabama. He enrolled early, too.
But, really, all that matters at Alabama is McCarron. If he can remain upright for the whole season, the Crimson Tide has a shot at a third straight national championship.
And so far, McCarron has shown it's awfully hard to put him down. He started every game his sophomore season, even though he got hurt in the fourth contest of the year. He suffered a dislocated labrum in his right shoulder against Arkansas, which required surgery after the season.
As for last year, he recently told ESPN.com he played the final six games of the year with injured ribs. He said three ribs "came out of place" in Alabama's win over Mississippi State and affected his ability to practice the rest of the season.
Even though he clearly struggled to throw the ball in the next two games — a win over LSU and a loss to Texas A&M — he took every important snap for the rest of the season.
Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban has remained fortunate with quarterbacks. He has started only three in six years at Alabama, which equals how many Auburn started last year. John Parker Wilson started every game Saban's first two years, then Greg McElroy started every game the next two years.
But what if McCarron goes down and stays there? In 2012, Blake Sims won the backup job, and if nothing else, he offered a huge change of pace from McCarron. While McCarron dropped back and rarely scrambled, Sims seems like a run-pass quarterback. But in his chances to play last season, Sims usually was a run-run quarterback.
For Saban, running doesn't seem that important, as he prefers the kind of quarterback who can manage the offense and locate receivers downfield.
Any of the other quarterbacks could win the backup job. Saban has hinted he won't necessarily give the edge to someone just because they've been on campus longer and have gained more practice experience.
For that reason, don't count out Bateman, who has a strong, accurate arm and is built similar to McCarron. Ultimately, he could wind up as the starting quarterback in 2014.
However, for the start of the 2013 season, Sims, Ely and Morris will compete hard for the second-team job. And if Sims learns to throw occasionally — and do so accurately — he might keep his spot behind McCarron.
As for McLeod and Del Rio, they're darkhorses.
But all of that is secondary for now. All that matters for Alabama is McCarron and his ability to deal with whatever injuries he suffers along the way.

Now majoring in math, linguistics, and Asian studies, with a concentration in Japanese, at University of Tennessee, with minors in English, German, history, and computer science.
I read a lot, and all over the place, content-wise. I also have a bad tendency to use German grammar in my English writing...which actually works pretty well for me.
It's not my fault I was only formally exposed to grammar when I started learning German.
Calculus is totally sexy, and I would probably marry Gottfried Leibnitz if he were still alive. And just to cement my awesome dorkiness to the world: I decided I wanted to study linguistics after I read The Lord of the Rings and found out Tolkien was a philologist. That was the only reason I ever went on a language kick. Before that I was an art/history nerd, with emphasis on the art. Who knows why?
Fate is inexorable.

I had originally intended to spend today (Monday, Feb. 16) doing a couple of short surveys for the annual Great Backyard Bird Count. But Sunday morning amid more and more (and more and more dire) weather forecasts warning of some pretty heavy winter weather coming our way I began to contemplate counting Sunday instead. Around 9 a.m. Sunday I peeked out the downstairs window. Well, in my yard were 17 wild turkeys. It looked like a large group of jakes and gobblers.

The authors presented an early analysis of a large phase III randomized trial comparing the safety and efficacy of doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide (AC) followed by weekly paclitaxel (T) vs the same chemotherapy with 1 yr of trastuzumab given either concurrently with paclitaxel or after paclitaxel. Patients received radiation therapy concurrently with trastuzumab. The main point of this abstract is that radiation therapy given concurrently with trastuzumab appears safe from a cardiac standpoint. This conclusion is limited by the fact that there is a relatively short amount of patient follow-up in this study (median follow-up 1.5 years). Radiation therapy is known to cause late appearing toxicities, and cardiac damage from radiation could manifest as far out as 10-15 years following treatment. Thus it seems somewhat premature to conclude that trastuzumab given concurrently with radiation is completely safe. When this data has matured, we will have a better idea as to the benefits and risks of these combination regimens.
Jul 12, 2011 - Data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registry show disparities in documenting rates of radiotherapy receipt by breast cancer patients or for investigation of geographic variation in the radiation treatment, according to a study published online June 29 in Cancer.

I tried to write a post like this last winter, in which I gave a list of the kinds of things I throw in my soup pot to make it tasty. But I am going to try again, and do this better. You see, I love a great tomato-based vegetable soup, but it's the kind of dish I hate having a recipe for. This is because it's really hard to screw up a basic tomato-based broth soup. The more things you add, the more flavorful it becomes. "The more things you add?" You may be thinking… "So I can add a cup of chopped pickles to my tomato soup for added flavor?" Oh, gross, you know that's not what I mean, stop being difficult.
Let me break down the category basics of what goes into a good tomato-based broth soup, so you can make it right every time, with what you have on hand, and impress all your friends as you whiz around the kitchen dumping things in a pot with no recipe like the fairy godmother of soup, or Hermione Granger, if she was domesticated.

The increasing complexity of cars has taught automakers the value of cooperating with competitors on technology that customers won't see and don't care about but would be prohibitively expensive for a single automaker to develop in-house.
Automakers and suppliers formed the GENIVI Alliance, for example, to create an open source (Linux-based) development platform for in-vehicle infotainment, facilitating competition at the human-machine interface (HMI) level. More than 120 companies are now involved in the effort, and the Alliance's semiannual meeting in San Jose, California last month was its largest such event to date.
GENIVI Alliance officers and board members include executives from BMW, Jaguar Land Rover, Renault, and PSA Peugeot Citroën, as well as suppliers such as Delphi, Visteon, and Magneti Marelli; ARM and Intel, MontaVista Software, Mentor Graphics, and XS Embedded.
In August the Alliance announced a compliance program and compliant solutions from Canonical, Mentor Graphics, MontaVista, Wind River, and the Linux Foundation, however, much additional work is needed before the platform reaches its final form. That work is ongoing within expert groups, each of which pairs a "lead," typically an automaker, with an architect responsible for deliverables. Other member firms can participate as contributors.
Major IVI market factors
GENIVI commissioned a study to identify the major market factors that will drive the future of IVI architecture. Interviews were conducted with 72 companies, including GENIVI members and non-members. Respondents identified Microsoft, QNX, Microltron, Linux, and Android as significant IVI platform suppliers and collectively expressed the opinion that Microsoft and Linux will share market dominance the longer term, five years or more in the future.
According to the study, the industry perceives GENIVI as the automotive IVI version of Linux. Respondents said that if GENIVI is successful in its charter and is adopted in the market, most companies developing Linux for IVI solutions will switch to GENIVI.
Several interviewees that had been developing Linux solutions have changed their strategies to focus on GENIVI as their open source offering.
Challenges facing the GENIVI Alliance, according to the study, are to
- Launch successfully in production with growing market penetration between 2013 and 2015,
- Alleviate IP, indemnification, quality/reliability and support concerns, and
- Validate development cycle and cost-reduction benefits.
The complete report is available at http://www.genivi.org/mrd.

We all knew it was only a matter of time; This new product will be all handmade, by me (knots sourced from the same maker as many top brush lines use). I'll be taking no custom orders on brushes, and I'll be working them in when I need to do something different, or when my saya work is at a standstill, because of waiting for curing, etc. The fact of the matter is that I love a great shaving brush, and I want to bring that aspect of wet-shaving over to this community. I receive many emails regarding which brush I'd recommend for a new wet-shaver, or for someone who wants to try a new brush. I feel these questions will be answered, without having to directly write back. My brushes will be done exactly with the loft to diameter ratios, knot types and handle styles that I love to use, myself. Basically, if I made it, I believe in the attributes of the brush.
Here's my first "Official" one, which was made for my friend Michael Rader, as a thank you for many things, but namely, the lathe (and chisels) that I will be using to make these brushes.
Here it is, all finished up. Zebrawood handle. Silvertip knot. Big, badass styling. Brushes like this one will be the most expensive I will offer, and I am still trying to figure out exactly what that will translate to. Please, let me know your thoughts on this one, guys.

This massively potent variation on BioQuest's breakthrough post-workout whey hydrolysate formula is perfect for athletes who want to experience MyoZene's lean-mass-building power throughout the day. MyoZene Ultra Pro contains the same ultra-hydrolyzed whey present in the original formula, plus an added dose of leucine for mTOR stimulation (which promotes the initiation of protein synthesis). MyoZene Ultra Pro also contains added taurine for its cell-volumizing effect, and zero added carbs. In effect MyoZene Ultra Pro represents the best of both worlds--the targeted rapid-action anabolism of original MyoZene and the versatility of any-time-of-day supplementation.

Veteran Member - Level 13
Update: I've added Lightning Returns to the list of Xbox 360 games for which I've gotten all 1000 achievement points!
Original Story: I want to clarify this right away: I'm not an achievement junkie. I don't get an adrenaline rush from the distinctive bloop that accompanies the "achievement unlocked" message, and I don't care about my gamerscore. Given those facts, it may seem strange that I have gone to absurd lengths to get every achievement in a small handful of games. These elite titles are the members of my 1000 Club. Achievements aren't meaningless for gamers like me. I have been known to obsessively collect knick-knacks, grind levels, and accrue percentage points toward total completion. I may not care about the gamerscore side of the equation, but I'm always looking for fresh goals and objectives that will give me an excuse to spend more time with awesome games. Getting all 1000/1000 points is mainly of symbolic importance; by getting every achievement, you have likely seen almost everything that the game has to offer…or at least the parts of the experience that the developer thought were important.Doing this with every title I play would just make gaming feel like a chore. The members of my 1000 Club are the standouts that, for various reasons, inspired such obsessive loyalty from me that I was compelled to explore their every nook and cranny. Those things will be different for each gamer, so what makes you decide to induct a game in your 1000 Club?
Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII (Update: 3/10/14)
After reviewing Lightning Returns, I was excited to get my hands on the retail version and play through it again – which is weird, since the game isn't very good. Here's the thing: Lightning Returns is more enjoyable if you already know exactly what to do, who to talk to, and which quests to focus on. With one playthrough already under my belt, all of the experimentation and head-scratching was gone, leaving me to focus on optimization. Plus, the whole game is essentially one giant quest checklist – something that inexplicably appeals to me (as I've mentioned in this feature before). Even though this game has a lot of content, the achievements are not challenging to get. None of them are difficulty-dependent, so you can blow through on the "easy" setting the whole time. You don't even need to venture far off the beaten path for most of them; the two biggest pains are getting the elixir (which requires farming 100 soul seeds) and upgrading 30 accessories (which can only be done after the first playthrough). Other than that, the achievements come pretty easily with only minor detours, like fighting in the arena multiple times or beating the disappointing "ultimate" monster. I wish some of the achievements rewarded more post-game content (like Final Fantasy XIII-2 did), driving players to complete every quest, experiment more with weapon customization, and play on the higher difficulties. Then again, that would mean I'd need to spend even more time with Lightning Returns, and even though I had fun, right now I'm feeling pretty good about being done with the Final Fantasy XIII saga.(Lightning Returns achievements here)
Dragon's Dogma (Update: 6/3/13)
I played a lot of Dragon's Dogma over this last holiday season, but stalled out for reasons I don't even remember. When Dark Arisen came out, the hype gave me new jolt of enthusiasm and reminded me how much fun I was having, so I bought Dark Arisen and loaded up my old save. I had been playing with the 1000 points in mind from the start, so I had already meticulously been completing every quest (which is necessary for the time-consuming "The Hero" achievement). I was already practically at the end of the game when I stopped playing the first time, so I beat the dragon and spent a ton of time doing post-game stuff. I plowed through the Everfall, got a bunch of loot, and beat Dark Arisen...even though you don't get achievements for it. Then I did the (crazy!) true ending for the game and started up my new game+. None of the achievements are difficult in Dragon's Dogma; by the time I was on my second playthrough, I only had a couple clean-up ones left. If you're willing to invest the time (and have patience for some tedium), Dragon's Dogma is an easy 1000 points. However, I can't stress this enough: You need to get the Eternal Ferrystone (a reward in Dark Arisen for having an original Dragon's Dogma save), because it drastically cuts down on the annoyance of having to hoof it everywhere all the time.(Dragon's Dogma achievements here)
Devil May Cry (Update: 3/25/13)
To get the full 1000 in DMC, you need to be okay with playing through the whole game six times. There are achievements for playing on Nephilim, Son of Sparda, Dante Must Die, Heaven or Hell, and Hell and Hell difficulty. You have to play each of them because they unlock sequentially; there's no "beat one and the earn the achievements for the lower levels." Plus, there's an achievement for getting all SSS rankings on Nephilim, which means you'll probably have to play through all of those missions again to ace them. During the course of all those playthroughs, you'll almost certainly rack up all the other achievements without a problem. Of course, skill still plays a role, but only a handful of sections pose a challenge. For me, the hardest parts were beating the final boss on Dante Must Die mode and getting SSS on Mission 17. Apart from those roadblocks, persistence generally gets the job done.(Devil May Cry achievements here)
Lego Lord of the Rings (Update: 2/11/13)
I was worried about this one. I played Lego Lord of the Rings for review, and nearly got to 100% completion. Because I was so close, I decided to keep playing after the review went up to hit the 1000 points. Unfortunately, I hit a bizarre glitch along the way that caused my treasure counter in the Tracking Hobbits level to be reset to zero. Basically, that meant that I wasn't awarded my final mithril brick for that level, which left me permanently one block short of being able to build all of the mithril items. Stuck at 99.2% completion with no way to fix the problem, I put the game down for a while. Yes, I was frustrated, but I had loved the game up to that point, so I was still happy with the time I spent with it. Fast forward to this morning: I asked myself "I wonder if they patched that glitch yet," so I dug out Lego Lord of the Rings and put it in. Sure enough, I get a patch notification, and just minutes later, I polish off the last few achievements. All in all, this was an easy 1000 points; it's less about skill and more about having the patience to collect every doo-dad. (Lego Lord of the Rings achievements here)
Mass Effect 3 (Update: 4/24/12)
I wasn't sure if I was going to shoot for the full 1000 points in Mass Effect 3, even though I did for the series' two installments. The game has a multiplayer-only achievement, which I normally have no interest in. However, I got completely hooked on ME 3's multiplayer mode, so a lot of achievements that would have required tons of single-player came naturally during the course of my online matches. Things like Pyromaniac (set 100 enemies on fire) and Overload Specialist (overload 100 shields) are easy to get with the waves of multiplayer enemies, and the ease of switching classes means that you don't need to do several full playthroughs of the campaign as different characters. As usual, beating the game on Insanity was the most challenging achievement, though I found it far more manageable than it was in Mass Effect 2. The only fight that really gave me trouble was the final duel with Kai Leng. I certainly died in other encounters, but none of them required nearly the number of retries as that one. The relative ease of the Insanity achievement has a lot to do with better design, but also with the weapon that comes with the From Ashes DLC, the particle rifle. It uses a cooldown system (like ME 1) rather than the limited ammunition of ME 2 and 3, so I didn't have to scrounge for thermal clips during the tough fights.(Mass Effect 3 Achievements here)
