A view from across the pond – Colleen Carroll
Colleen Carroll is a pint sized bombshell from the US who joined North Kiteboarding last year. For those of you unfamiliar of her, don't let appearances fool you, she rides hard! Often found hanging out at cable parks around the world honing her skills on the features, she dominated at the Triple S last year and is on a mission to do the same again this year. We caught up with Colleen to find out what she's been up to and what her take on kiteboarding from 'across the pond' is.
"I've been travelling, kiting, spending lots of time at the cable park and in general loving life!
Seeing other people on the water pushing their riding really inspires me to go for harder tricks or to try out a new one. It also helps that our sport is so fun. I never have the feeling that I'm lacking motivation when I'm at a kite spot. If its windy and the water looks nice, I'm in!"
When asked how she sees the progression of the female side of the sport, she say's; "progression is kicking ass these days! In the last year I've seen and met many female riders who are really pushing their personal limits as well as those of women's kiteboarding as a whole. I'm curious as to when we'll see the first double pass landed..."
As a Team Rider it is always interesting to get an 'insiders' perspective on the North Range and more specifically for women and Colleen's style of riding: "Firstly the North Kiteboarding range is huge. There is definitely something for everybody in there whether it's sliders, freestyle, speed, hang-time, or waves. Whatever fuels your fire. More specifically, the North range offers the perfect setup for me and I think any girl can find what she needs. The performance, safety, and durability are all time on the North kites so I don't really know what more you could ask for! My perfect set up is a 9m Vegas on 22 meter lines with 136 Gambler and North Kiteboarding boots. Also need my ION sol harness and of course a lovely Sensi Graves bikini. If the wind is a smooth 20kts, the water butter flat, and there is a feature to session, I am in utter heaven!"
A well known rider on the American Kite scene she has never made it across the pond to test out some of Europe's hotspots, but she is adamant that she will be making the trip this summer. Inquisitive to find out how she felt about riding for a European brand and whether it has influenced her view on the sport, she said: " Our first kites as a family were North kites and the brand has always had such a strong presence in the Hood River/Seattle kite spots that I guess I've never really felt it was foreign. However, working more closely with a European brand, it has shown me how much bigger and more mature the industry is 'across the pond."
Looking to the future, she admits that it is best to be flexible when trying to make plans materialise, but that a trip to Europe is on the cards and that her main goal and sights are set on the Triple S Invitational, Cape Hatteras. "I was really lucky last year and came out on top. I have a feeling I'll see even more competition this year on the girls side so I'm feeling a bit of pressure to up my game." And up her game she did!
Colleen was crowned the women's Triple S Champion 2014. Never taking her eyes of the prize she dominated the field securing a 1st in Slicks and Sliders, and 3rd in the Surf putting her 1st Overall. Her performance in the Slicks was solid, with two clean runs and stomping technical moves such as Back to Wrapped. A day in the Surf saw her dialling some stylish grabs and unhooked moves off the kickers, scoring well with the judges. In the Slider discipline, she cruised through the heats with clean hits across the park. A stylish front side 180 tail press to blind across the flat bar put her in the Finals. She said;
"All of the girls were riding really solid and it was made even more intense having mixed heats and riding with the boys. I'm incredibly happy that I advanced through to the Finals with the North boys."
That's a wrap! The 2014 Venyu Triple S invitational comes to an end
An amazing week of kiteboarding has come to an end here at Real Watersports, Cape Hatteras, and as riders pack their boardbags to head to their next destination, it's safe to say that the 2014 Venyu Triple S Invitational was a huge success!
The crème de la crème of wakestyle kiteboarders gathered to take on the Surf, Slicks and Sliders and there is no doubt that the did it in style. North Kiteboarding Team Rider Colleen Carroll never took her eyes of the prize taking 1st in Slicks and Sliders, and 3rd in the Surf putting her 1st Overall. Aaron Hadlow (UK) dominated in the Slicks giving him 1st in the discipline and placing him 3rd Overall.
North Kiteboarding Rider Tom Court, (UK) a bit of a Triple S regular was there for his sixth year, put in a great performance in the Surf discipline, taking 3rd place on the podium. Sam Light (¼ of the Freeride Project) took 2nd, leaving Aaron Hadlow to 1st place. The boys were stoked to have an all UK podium, showing the Americans that they too are pushing wakestyle riding across the pond.
The closing ceremony saw $40,000 being split amongst the riders and a big party to send off the riders to their next destination...Until next year!

North Kiteboarding Team Riders style out in the Slicks at the Triple S Invitational
The Slicks discipline makes up one third of the Triple S Invitational at REAL Watersports, Cape Hatteras. Following an outstanding day on the Sliders, riders gathered to wait for the wind which lacked some punch. Late afternoon, the light winds had built enough for the Women's heats to start and rigging 14m's, competition got underway.
The Slope Style format for the event sees riders going one at a time, giving them the chance to do their four best tricks, two regular and two goofy.
North Kiteboarding Rider Colleen Carroll (US) dominated across all disciplines last year but this year, it seemed that she was going to have tough competition from Russian rider Victoria Soloveykina who landed a big KGB. With Colleen putting in two clean runs, with technical moves such as Back to Wrapped it will be a close call for the judges who will be announcing the results tonight.
Wind built throughout the early evening allowing the mens heats to kick off. Craig put points on the sheet with a Shifty to Wrapped while Tom Court had seamless runs, landing a variety of moves such as a Slim Chance, Double S-Bend to Blind, Crow Mobe and a 315 making him a contender for the final. Unfortunately, night fell and the last two mens heats were unable to be run and were postponed until the following day.
A 9am start to finish the Slicks discipline was greeted by 30knts of wind, leaving the boys to rig 7m, and test their skills in polar opposite conditions from the day before. As the riders for the Final hit the water, Aaron Hadlow truly showed how unstoppable he is unleashing big tricks such as a Crow Mobe 5, Blind Judge 5 and Back Mobe 5.

A Triple Success in the Sliders for all three North Kiteboarding Riders!
Day 3 of the 2014 Venyu Triple S Invitational saw the infamous Cape Hatteras wind finally arrive and the running of a complete Slider contest. The vibe amongst the riders was electric as they rigged up at the slick, and as the finishing touches were made to the slider park, spectators flocked in to watch this World Class event get underway.
The first four heats were run as a Jam session, (everyone at once) of 30 minutes each. Considering the size of the tight competition area and the amount of riders in each heat, (18 in the first two and 20 in heat three) it truly epitomised 'organised chaos.'
North Kiteboarding riders we out to dominate, with Craig and Tom riding 14m Vegas' in the first heats, switching to 12m and then 9m as the wind gradually built thought the day. Craig impressed the judges across the North Rail with a tail press, front side 5, tapping the rail as he landed. Feeling challenged by the set up of the course Cunningham said; " The biggest challenge for me would be that the features weren't evenly distributed for both tacks. The course never changed so, as a goofy rider, it was harder to rack up points, especially on the big 80 foot John Wayne slider, which remained set for those riding regular."
Tom styled out along the rails, but secured his way through the heats with a big Crow Mobe off the kicker. "It was a great park set-up and the jam session format made for some intense action during the heats. Having four 30min heats to get to the final, made it about endurance. Keeping energy going for over two hours of intense riding is harder than it looks. A few upsets and some big tricks were landed but it felt good to have all three North Kiteboarding riders sitting in the final for the slider event as the sun went down," says Court.
Colleen Carroll cruised through the heats on the 9m Vegas. With clean hits across the park she pulled out a stylish front side 180 tail press to blind across the flat bar to put her in the Finals. She said; "All of the girls were riding really solid and it was made even more intense having mixed heats and riding with the boys. I'm incredibly happy that I advanced through to the Finals with the North boys."
As the sun set on the Final, riders took turns to hit each feature in a Slope Style format. After hours of intense action over the course of the day, tired riders gave their all over two runs through the park. A momentous day full of innovative riding and good vibes. Results will be announced on Friday at the closing ceremony.
Watch the video round up http://www.triplesinvitational.com/on-demand/2014/slider-highlights/ and stay tuned with event updates on the Triple S website http://www.triplesinvitational.com.
Court, Cunningham and Carroll make waves in the Surf, Slicks and Sliders!
The Triple S Invitational is underway here at REAL Watersports, Cape Hatteras, North Carolina and riders have flocked in from all across the globe for the world's most prestigious Kiteboarding event. With a jaw dropping $40,000 up for grabs competition is hot!
The event is all about wakestyle and progressive riding, so riders will not only be competing against one another, but will also push each other and the sport to the next level. With the reintroduction of the original Jam format riders will gain a sense of 'Freeriding' over competition across the three disciplines of Surf, Slick and Sliders. For 2014, North Kiteboarding has a Rail that will feature in the event, challenging the riders to style out and tally up as many point as possible.
North Team riders, Tom Court (UK,) Craig Cunningham (Canada,) and bombshell Colleen Carroll (US) are representing North Kiteboarding in an epic way and are all in the running for the podium. After Colleen cleaned up across all disciplines with a golden result last year, all eyes are on her to dominate once again.
As the event continues to be on hold awaiting the arrival of the outstanding wind Cape Hatteras is famous for, riders made the most of the conditions that were on offer. Vegas' and Gamblers were the weapons of choice for the North Kiteboarding riders and with Tom and Craig rigging 14m's, and heading over to the park, Colleen was already on fire with her 12m hitting the features and showing everyone why she's the girl to watch.

Hello!!! Black Spring, twitterchat and everything
Hello lovely Pellinorites
It's been too long, I agree! I won't bore you with everything I've been doing, but I have been superbusy. I'll bore you with just one thing. I have a new book out. Not a Pellinor book: this one is a gothic fantasy called Black Spring. Now available in Australia, out in the UK in January and in the US in fall 2013 (I think).
On Monday 8pm AEST (that's Australian Eastern Standard Time) I'll be doing a chat on twitter, hosted by Walker Books Australia, if anyone wants to check in. Hashtag is #BlackSpringchat and Walker says they're giving away three copies of the book.
In other news, a nice review came through yesterday. Well, it's not just nice. It's fabulous!
Every so often one chances upon a novel so uplifting, enthralling and immersive that it becomes a struggle to put it down. Alison Croggons latest fantasy tale is just such a book.
In other news, I finished another non-Pellinor book, Simbala's Book, and Sekrit Business is ongoing with that. It will be out in due course. And I'm hard at work on the Cadvan prequel, which I'm hoping to finish by the end of the year. (So far, so good. Yes, Dernhil is in it. But I'm saying nothing more.)
Hope you're all well. And maybe talk to some of you on twitter!
Much love

- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Line the base and sides of a 23cm springform tin with baking parchment. Bash the biscuits and 75g of the flaked almonds to crumbs – try double-bagging in food bags and crushing with a rolling pin. Mix with the almond extract and melted butter, then press into the base of the prepared tin and bake for 10 mins. Set aside to cool while you make the filling.
- In your largest bowl, whisk the cheese with an electric whisk until creamy. Add the sugar and whisk to combine. Whisk in the flour, then the vanilla, the eggs, one at a time, and finally the soured cream.
- Dollop spoonfuls of mixture into the tin, dotting in tbsps of jam as you go. Smooth the top as gently as you can.
- Carefully place tin on the middle shelf of the oven and bake for 10 mins. Scatter with remaining almonds. Decrease oven to 110C/90C fan/gas ¼ and bake for a further 35 mins. Turn off the oven, keep the door closed and leave cheesecake to cool for 1 hr. Open oven door and leave it ajar for another hour (you can use your oven gloves to wedge it open). Cool for a third hour at room temp, then cover and chill overnight.
- Remove from the tin and carefully peel off the parchment. Dust with icing sugar and serve with cream.

Comments, questions and tips
A great recipe, although the cheesecake is extraordinarily sweet. I made a square version so it would be easier to divide up for the workforce in the office. This meant possible recalculate of the cooking time. See my blog review and photographs at http://badzilla.co.uk/Easy-Cook--Bakewell-Cheesecake
What an amazing cheesecake, first baked one I have made. Following beccyg_83's advice, I turned off the oven and let the cheesecake cool down in there for about 6 hours before refrigerating and not only was it perfectly cooked, but no cracks. I used the whole jar of jam and it certainly wasn't too wet or jammy!
I have just joined the site and plan to try this as it sounds delicious.
All the comments are very helpful so thank you to all contributors.
Lidl sells a very good cherry jam and is quite cheap and is very inexpensive for the quality.
I also think thins would not be substantial enough so will be on the look out for almond biscuits with texture.
Wow! This recipe is incredible , first time I've baked a cheesecake , the only frustrating part is that you have to wait until the next day to try it . I used digestives for the base and actually doubled the amount of base mixture and put extra almond essence in worked just right , didn't need the cream to serve with it . Will be making this again.:)

Yeah.....we've been long overdue for another one of these.
"Many believers will say, "It is impossible for you to prove that God (Allah, Ra, Vishnu, whatever) does not exist. There is no way to prove that something does not exist." This is a silly argument for the following reason.
Imagine that we have a conversation one day and I say to you, "I believe in the gerflagenflopple. You cannot prove that the gerflagenflopple does not exist, therefore it exists." You can see that this is ridiculous. Just because I have invented something out of thin air does not mean that its non-existence is suddenly unprovable. There has to be some evidence that the gerflagenflopple exists in order to assert its existence. Since there is not, it is quite easy to say that the gerflagenflopple is imaginary.
Now let's imagine that we have a conversation one day and I say to you, "I believe in Leprechauns. You cannot prove that Leprechauns do not exist, therefore they exist." You actually have heard of Leprechauns. There are lots of books, movies and fairy tales dealing with Leprechauns. People talk about Leprechauns all the time. Leprechauns even have a popular brand of breakfast cereal. But that does not mean that Leprechauns exist. There is no physical evidence for the existence of Leprechauns. Not a single bit. Therefore, it is obvious to any normal person that Leprechauns are imaginary.
If you think about it, you will realize that there is no difference between God and Leprechauns. Lots of people talk about God as though he exists, but there is no actual evidence for God's existence. For example:
[note: in order to "see this page," go to the link at the bottom of this post]
God has never left any physical evidence of his existence on earth.
All historical gods were imaginary and we know it. (see this page)
None of Jesus' "miracles" left any physical evidence either. (see this page)
God has never spoken to modern man, for example by taking over all the television stations and broadcasting a rational message to everyone.
The resurrected Jesus has never appeared to anyone. (see this page)
The Bible we have is provably incorrect and is obviously the work of primitive men rather than God. (see this page)
When we analyze prayer with statistics, we find no evidence that God is "answering prayers." (see this page)
Huge, amazing atrocities like the Holocaust and AIDS occur without any response from God.
And so on…
There is absolutely no evidence indicating that God exists. There is a tremendous amount of empirical evidence that God does not exist. Therefore we can conclusively say that God is imaginary. That is the only thing that a rational person can say.
Another angle:
Here is a second way to look at the same question.
With every other object and phenomenon in our experience, we use the scientific method to determine whether it exists or not. For example, X rays are invisible, but we know that they exist. We can devise scientific experiments to prove that they exist. Then, once proven to exist, X-rays can be used predictably in all sorts of beneficial ways.
If you would like to hypothesize that God exists, then you should say to yourself, "Let's devise a repeatable scientific experiment to provide evidence that God exists." Every experiment we devise demonstrates, yet again, that God is imaginary.
Isn't it odd that God, unlike everything else in our universe, has been put into a special category? When we talk about God, we are supposed to do so "philosophically." Why? Why not treat God just like all other objects and devise experiments to detect his presence or absence?
The classic religious response is, "God must remain hidden. If he proved his existence, that would take away faith." This is clever -- here we have an object named God that proves its existence by completely hiding its existence. Of course, in the real world, any object that provides no evidence for its existence is classified as imaginary.
Even more interesting, this object called God, which is supposedly hiding its existence completely, is in the meantime supposedly writing books, answering prayers and incarnating itself. How can that be? This obvious contradiction shows how imaginary God is. When we look at prayer scientifically, we find that "answered prayers" are actually nothing but coincidences. When we look at the Bible scientifically, ethically or rationally, we find that the Bible is wrong. When we look at all of Jesus' miracles scientifically, we find that none of them left behind any scientific or historical evidence. Nor, for that matter, did Jesus, nor did Jesus' resurrection. Strangely, not a single historical source independent of the Bible ever mentions the resurrection.
The reason why we can find no empirical evidence for God's existence is not because "God is a magical being completely able to hide from us." It is because God is imaginary."

Improved skin texture - 2/25/2015 6:20:37 PM My skin is sensitive but dry and red in spots. I have been using this about twice a day for almost 10 days. I have begun to notice less redness and burning already. This wash smells great, lathers a little and washes off nicely leaving a smooth feeling. I'm glad I got it.Favorite lip product! - 2/23/2015 1:11:51 PM I have the worst chapped lips in the winter and trying this product was the best thing that has happened for my lips. They feel hydrated and help heal my lips quickly. I wish the feeling would last longer but it's just a reminder to reapply and take care of myself.Nice feeling - 2/8/2015 7:30:21 PM I have dry and somewhat sensitive skin. I used to use another brand but was tired of going to the mall to get refills. I got a facial at a spa that used Sundari products and was impressed with the way it made my skin feel. It was not itchy or red and the next day it felt great. I was sold on Sundari. I have been gradually replacing my old product with Sundari ones. The Elderflower moisturizer makes my face feel smooth and it is less red and blotchy. I think it will make a real difference in my skinO Dear I Love This! - 7/11/2014 7:16:20 PM I received a sample of this and fell in love. I have been looking for a good exfoliator and have tried a lot. This one is just what I was looking for. Then went online and saw the price and gasped. Wow. That's expensive for a body scrub. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized it's worth the investment. Hey, it's less than a single treatment at the spa, so maybe it's a good investment.Great Exfoliator! - 6/24/2014 5:49:08 AM I purchase this to prepare my skin for the summer season. Great exfoliation and has cleared up my skin. The only negative I found is the scent is very strong and container is hard to work with. Other then that, produce is amazing!I finally found a product! - 6/21/2014 8:35:42 PM I have sensitive skin. I can't use fragrance. A lot of products cause me acne or inflamed skin. But this stuff has a pleasant smell it's very clean I use it with my Clairsonic brush which I absolutely love. This product is amazing my acne has cleared up. My skin never felt better. It make my skin soft. Skin feels clean. I love the smell. It soothing and fresh. I'm so excited I'm going to purchase more for my family. Very sad it's out of stock today but very happy that this product is out there. I've tried so many products in the past. I've spent so much money just trying to find something to make my skin at ease. I use to only use dove sensitive bar soap. But it worked ok. after awhile it feels like it left a residues. But I found this product and I'm not going back. I do use the dove sensitive for private regions. the rest of my body gets this treatment and it feel like I just left the spa. The fragrance is very long lasting but not too heavy. Just a soft clean and natural smell. Now for the first time I can feel feminine using a body fragrance soap without irritation to my skin. No breakout. I think this product is sulfate free .which makes it healthier. I look forward to showering.I recommend it.Really loved it - 4/9/2014 9:46:23 AM Got this as a sample and enjoyed using it the whole time, it was gentle on my skin but still did a great job cleaning and the scent was lovely. Subtle and reminded me of sandalwood forests. I am buying this again because I really liked the exfoliating beads that were gentle on my skin and my skin looked vibrant post use. Definitely worth the money. Also I liked the tube it came in, great for travel.flowers & lotion - 3/27/2014 10:28:12 AM I have had and loved two of Sundari's other candles, Chameli (jasmine) and Madura (sweet lime). Madura was 'No Longer Available' when I tried to order again (so sad! Can we bring it back?!) and since I wasn't able to get my first choice, I decided to forego my second choice and pick 2 new scents instead. Gulkand smells like wax/lotion and perfume. It is not a scent that I am loving so far, but I did notice that once my other Sundari candles aged/breathed a bit I enjoyed the scent a lot more, so I am hoping that will be the case with this one as well. I also ordered Bakula which should be delivered later today.Best one yet - 3/22/2014 9:38:31 AM I've tried a lot of moisturizers over the years for my sensitive, combination skin, this one is by far the best. It acts like a great hand lotion in that it goes on smoothly and absorbs into the skin immediately. My face tends to be dry in the morning and oily later in the day but this product keeps my skin smooth and even all day long, while feeling like I'm not wearing anything at all. It is pricey, but totally worth it! My only concern, and the reason I couldn't give it five stars, is that it does not contain a sunscreen.gentle but very productive - 3/19/2014 5:54:00 AM This is a nice gentle yet productive cleanser. My facial skin is especially sensitive and delicate as I'm an Accutane user. If you've ever been on Accutane, you know your skin can be very dry and flaky. I use this cleanser with my Clarisonic in the evenings and my skin is left feeling very clean but not tight with no traces of dead flaking skin well after my face is dry. Application of moisturizer and/or serum afterward is also nice. Great product! -
Learn More About Sundari
Sundari is unlike any other luxury skincare collection on the market because its products are developed using the principles of Ayurveda. Since ancient times, practitioners in India have used this healing tradition to promote overall health, mental well-being, spiritual peace and physical beauty. Ayurveda focuses on balancing all of the energies of the body, bringing them into equilibrium, so that a person can look and feel their best. With the Sundari skincare collection, traditional ingredients from Ayurveda are combined into formulas that address specific skincare concerns, helping to restore balance to the tissue for beautiful results.
To fully meet the needs of the skin, Sundari has created four distinctive lines of products. Firming products help to counteract the symptoms of age-related elasticity loss and environmental damage to collagen fibers. The products tone and tighten the skin without the use of harsh chemicals. Healing products help to soothe and calm tissue that is showing signs of irritation and stress. Nurturing products meet the moisture needs of the tissue to fight dehydration, while Supplifying products provide the nutrients needed to keep skin healthy.
Although Sundari skin care products are developed using one of the most revered of ancient eastern healing traditions, the products are evaluated using the latest of western medical science. All of the formulas are tested by dermatologists to ensure their safety and test their mechanisms of action, so that you can use the products with confidence that you are only applying gentle, effective formulas every day.

The 14-foot floating wall that defines the entryway also reminds the owner of some of his favorite songs. A music professor friend transformed musical notes into a grid pattern that is realized in the wall's steel sections.
Marlon Blackwell Architect
marlon blackwell architect, fayetteville, ark.
The owner of this fire-damaged house wanted to restore whatever could be saved, but he also sought a better connection to its verdant surroundings. Marlon Blackwell, AIA, complied, building on the home's existing character with innovation and sensitivity, said our judges.
The architect added spaces that continue the original home's grid layout without using walls to define new rooms. Instead, "vertical light monitors organize open spaces and provide a sense of hierarchy," Blackwell explains. "Moving through the house, you get the sense of going through layers of time."
To enhance outdoor ties, a double-height great room runs almost the length of the yard, taking in light from all directions. Mezzanine loft areas permit a bird's-eye view while humanizing the scale of the large room below and reinforcing the addition's overall grid pattern. Large panels of glass make up most of the skin, with fill-ins of weathered steel. Computer-matched wood veneers clad interior ceilings and walls. Blackwell juxtaposed these materials to create an indoor-outdoor dialogue, expressing, he says, a "kind of rawness on the outside and more refinement inside."

Brosé: [broh-zey] –noun a pink wine enjoyed with friends.
'Tis the season… to drink pink, of course! Everyone and anyone who knows me, knows that once spring has sprung and things are starting to blossom and turn green, all I'm thinking is pink.
I wait all year for this season to arrive and look forward to the array of rose-colored bottles that appears on the table at our Cambridge location. So, when a fellow monger asked me to write a little something about rosé for the Formaggio Kitchen blog, I figured it was the perfect excuse to revisit some old favorites while trying some new pinks too!

ST. PETERS, Mo. (KMOV ) – Authorities have released charges against a convicted sex offender accused of taking off with a 16-year-old girl from St. Charles last week.
Benjamin Kinkade, 27, is charged with statutory rape and failure to register as a sex offender.
Police said teenager was reported missing by her parents Jan. 14 after they dropped her off at work. Her parents later found out she was not scheduled to work that day.
Surveillance video reportedly showed the girlt left the Kentucky Fried Chicken, located at 1699 Jungermann Road, on foot and headed in an unknown direction with Kinkade.
Investigators said Kinkade's family was open and cooperative with the investigation, and a member of the family called the Monroe County Sheriff's Department wanting to turn in him and the teen. Police arrived at the residence of the family member who contacted authorities, and discovered the girl was safe and had no visible injuries.
On January 16th, the girl's father reportedly picked her up in Monroe County.
According to the teen's family, she and Kinkade met at the KFC, where he worked as a manager. The family said he was fired in December when police caught him and the teen together, and police learned of his criminal history.
Kinkade pleaded guilty in 2002 for having sex with a 12-year-old girl.

Tested by the Good Housekeeping Research Institute
Oreck Pro Series Platinum Pilot U7200ECBPD Vacuum
Product Review
About GHRI Ratings
XGood Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.
Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
The easy-to-use, lightweight Oreck Pro Series Platinum Pilot U7200ECBPD vacuum comes equipped with a swivel nozzle and has a low profile that allows it to glide easily under furniture. And, though Good Housekeeping Research Institute testers found it to be a bit hard to control, the Oreck had good embedded dirt pick-up and great bare-floor and pet-hair cleaning performance. It lacks onboard attachments, however. Still, you'll probably be happy with the Oreck if you primarily want to clean flooring and area rugs, and with its light weight (10 lbs) you might not mind taking it between levels in your home. Manufacturer's warranty: 10 years. Also comes with 10 free annual tune-ups, if ever needed, at Oreck Clean Home Centers. oreck.com.

Snoring is a loud, hoarse, or harsh breathing sound that occurs during sleep.
Snoring is common in adults. It does not necessarily mean that you have a health problem.
A doctor (or sleep specialist) can tell if you have sleep apnea by doing a sleep study either at home or in a hospital.
Snoring is an important social problem. People who share a bed with someone who snores can develop sleep difficulties.
In most people, the reason for snoring is not known. Some possible causes include:
Changes in the mouth and throat, such as:
Sometimes snoring can be a sign of a sleep disorder called sleep apnea. This means you have periods in which you completely or partly stop breathing for more than 10 seconds while you sleep.
The episode is followed by a sudden snort or gasp when you start breathing again. Then you start to snore again. If you have sleep apnea, this cycle usually happens many times a night. Sleep apnea is not as common as snoring.
The following tips may help reduce snoring:
If your doctor has given you a breathing device, use it on a regular basis. Follow your health care provider's advice for treating allergy symptoms.
Talk to your health care provider if you have:
Children with chronic snoring should also be tested for apnea. Sleep apnea in children has been linked to growth problems, ADHD, poor school performance, learning difficulties, bedwetting, and high blood pressure. Most children who snore do NOT have apnea, but a sleep study is the only way to tell for sure.
Your health care provider will ask questions to evaluate your snoring. You will also have a physical exam that focuses on your throat, mouth, and neck.
Questions may include the following (some of which your partner might have to answer):
You may need to be referred to a sleep specialist for sleep studies .
Treatment options include:

No. 15. - BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 21 1923 Price 10 Cents VARSITY AGAIN DEFEATS BASKETBALL OPPONENTS Sweetbriar Prov es Most Able Op- ponent Bryn Mawr Has Met, This Year REMAK SCORES FIFTEEN GOALS Confronted by Sweetbrier, the best bas- ketball team which has opposed it this year, Varsity won another victory last Saturday afternoon, with a score of 36-26. The Bryn Mawr team played a far quicker game, and their passing was much more accurate than last week; all the players showed a decided improvement. Though F. Martin's opponent could out- jump her at center, she ftnd M, Palachc maintained their usual rapid run of passes in the face of skillful and deter- mined opposition. C Remak,,'25, and H. Rice, '23, worked well together, passing intelligently and keeping the ball in their territory. The ball once in Rcmak's hands, it was almost impossible to prevent her from scoring. The guards* had the hardest positions to fill, for Sweetbriar's forwards were extraordinarily good, and their shooting from a great distance as ac- CONTINUED ON PACK 3 SENIORS SUBMERGE LIGHT BLUE IN FIRST OF FINALS Ward and Rice Make Invincible Team at Long, Hard Shooting Playing to a man as if inspired, the Seniors overwhelmingly defeated 1924 with a score of 13-1 in the first game of the nnals Monday afternoon. The team, a solid arTd infallible unit in the pool, totally eclipsed the efforts of their opponents, and each individual play tran- scended, the preceding-*mc in its lightning quickness and accuracy. 1924 was slow and confused. They passed as a rule into the very arms of the" enemy. The for- wards scarcely ever escaped their guards, their shooting was weak and erratic. Though the long low passes of H. Rice and J. Ward, '23, were most difficult to stop, they were left unguarded too often. F. Martin surpassed even herself in the goal, and V. Corse and F. Mattison inter- cepted evety play that escaped H. Rice. A. Smith and D. Mcserve with great spirit and almost as much skill peppered K. VanBibber with shots, and drawing upon themselves the attention of the Blue de- fense, who left Rjcc and Ward free to make one beautiful shot after another. Line-up for Monday: 1923�J. Ward******, D. Meserve* A. Smith* H. Rice*****, V. Corse, F. Matti- son, F. Martin. . 1924�E. Tuttle, F. Begg, M. Smith*, M. Farics, F. Howe, lit Angcll, K. VanBibber. Green Wins Second Preliminary Figriting with great determination *and spirit* but overpowered by the superior tac- tics of their opponents, 1925's first team went down to defeat at the hands of the Seniors, who won the final game of the preliminary match by a score of 8-5, last Thursday night. The Red guards worked hard, endeavor- ing to block the Senior passes, but could not stop the swift onrush. H. Rice's long shots to D. Meserve, who shot the ball into the goal, proved most effective, and the team play between them was impossible to break up. During the next half the Soph- omores put a terrific amount of energy into both their defense and attack. I..

Dr. Carpenter's speech was as follows: Tutenkhamon was the last of the heretics and was himself an enforced renegade back to orthodoxy. His father-in-law, Akhna ton, has often been considered the most remarkable figure in' Egyptian history. Coming to the throne of a vast empire which stretched from the Sudan to the Kuphratcs, he deliberately renounced im- perialism, militarism, the traditional polit- ical life of a Pharaoh, and the state relig- ion of .his predecessors. He turned away from the great city of Thebes to build for himself and his court a new city all their own, and there he retired to enjoy and encourage art, to devote himself to his family, and most of all to spread his heretic faith in a One Eternal God, mani- fest to man as the disk of the sun, the source of life. The new faithjiwas car- ried as far as Palestine and there may have vitally and permanently affected the Jewish religion. But in Egypt it had no career and barely outlived its ardent and youthful expounder, the king Akhnaton. Tutenkhamon was the last to uphold it, and he found it wise to change his name from Tutenkhaton to Tutenkhamon as public proof that he had^ turned away from the worship of the sundisk (Aton) to the traditional sites of Amon. He also seems to have changed his royal residence and moved back to Thebes, leaving the brand new city of heresy to moulder and be forgotten. The hope of learning more about thi- extraordinary religious movement in which heresy was so soon followed by apostasy, is one of the sources of especial interest in the newly found tomb. Tutenkhamon belongs to the XVIIIth Oynasty and must have died shortly be fore 1350 B. C. In those days the Phar- aohs had given up the practice of having themselves buried in the heart of huge stone pyramids and instead were laid away in rooms cut deep in the cliffs of the Nile- border. There, with all the rich accom- CONTINITED ON PACE 6 BRYN MAWR ASKED TO HELP RESTORE LOUVAIN LIBRARY Drive for Funds to be Held Next Monday in Taylor (Specially Contributed by F. Martin, '.V. President of the Undergraduate . Association) FOUR SKITS ENTERTAIN EVENS AT DANCE IN GYM Scarecrow Loses Milkmaid to Jeans "Die Meistersinger" Rendered With Great Effect FRESHMEN ACT HARLEQUINADE*.. A gay and diverting combination of drama and the dance was presented by the Jifniors last Saturday evening for the en- tertainment of 1026. Four skits, preceded and followed by dancing to. music played by H. Cornish and Y. Sabin, '25, wrung shouts of glee f rom 4hc audience,, and re- freshments were served in the intermission, �served even, with a lavishness without precedent, to the brooding Sophomores on the running track. At nine o'clock the dancers gathered with the high expectations characteristic 'of first-nighr-ers l>cfore an imaginary bell of foot-lights. Nor were they disappointed. K. Conner, her cubistically painted face staring from beneath a tattered hat, and supporting a black coat and trousers which hung upon her l>ones as if she'were indeed the scarecrow she represented, was ushered in by the sjcruff of the neck in the hands CONTINUED ON I^GE 2 To help rebuild a library which has con- tributed immensely to past scholarship, and which, with our assistance, may be re- stored for the advancement of future scholars, should appeal to us as college students. An appeal for the support of this project, the rebuilding of the Louvain Library, destroyed by the (icrmans in 1914. has been made to the colleges, universities, preparatory and public schools of America, as representing the scholastic world of this country. What could be more appropriate than our joining to give to fellow students an inspiration for intellectual work as well as a much-needed place in which to lodge the books, many of them ^priceless, which for lack of a library are lying about, stored in dusty crates and boxes? Next Monday, February 26, there will be a drive under the chairmanship of C. Kemak, '25, to raise money for our con- tribution toward the restoration of the library. The faculty have already contrib- uted $65. This year it has been the aim of both the Christian and Undergraduati Associations to make as few financial de- mands as possible upon the student body. It is hoped by having fewer drives that those which arc organized will be more profitable for the interests involved. SUMMER SCHOOL COMMITTEE MEETS OVER.WEEKIEND Former Students Spread Publicity Among Industrial Workers STUDENT CURRICULUM BOARD MEETING TWO HOURS DAILY More time for individual work, written and oral reports, and elasticity of the' schedule are suggested in most of the rec- ommendations handed in to the student curriculum Committee, which has lieen meeting on an average of two hours a day since it was formed after Midyears. Protests against scheduled quizzes have l>een abundant, while frequent drop quizzes were advocated, according to F. Martin, '28, chairman of the committee. Elasticity of the schedule by having classes in elective subjects at eight o'clock, and from two to four, is another matter under considera- 0 With one of its members coming to Bryn Mawr from as far as Chicago, the joint Administrative Committee of the Summer School held its February meeting at W'ynd- ham last Saturday and Sunday. The changes and plans for the Summer School decided upon in this meeting will be fully described in next week's issue of the College News by Miss Hilda \V. Smith, director of the Summer School. Representatives of tht' students of last summer and the year before also- attended the meetings Among these were Maud holey, who was at Bryn Mawr for two summers and has been lately elected ' President of the Women's Trade I'nion League in lioston. She is also chairman of a committee of Summer School alumnae in Boston, and has been doing valuable publicity work for the school. Having spoken to working girls of seven mills in Lawrence, Mass., to an Industrial Club of the Y. \V. <?. A. in Boston and a Wednes- day Night Club formed by Business Women, Miss Eoley is now planning to give a short talk to the Textile Workers in Manchester, New Hampshire.

An alumnae association of Summer School students has been re- cently formed in New York with Miss Pesotta as chairman. � This group of stu- dents is planning to send two speakers,� if possible both unionist and non-union- ist,�to speak on the Summer School to tne various unions and clubs in New York Sadie ("loodman, a first year student, is interested in a student industrial group at Rochester, where college undergraduates and industrial workers hold meetings to A \. discuss, together current events and to hear an occasional speaker.

Why are people leaving WoW?
When I read on Warcraftrealms that players have been steadily leaving WoW since the release of the expansion, I admit surprise. There is so much content in TBC I can't imagine anyone getting bored.
Why then are people leaving the game? Is it that they see it as something conquered once you reach 70? Is it that despite how much content Blizzard puts out it just never is enough? What do you think Blizzard can do to stem this downward spiral?

Students are able to work with our sports medicine staff to supplement their education and gain valuable practical experience. Some students volunteer their time while others who are eligible for work-study can be assigned to the athletic training room as their work setting. Others pursue internships or independent study under our supervision for academic credit.
We are very aware that those who work with us are students first. Great attention is given to ensure that students are maintaining their academic focus and that the time spent in our setting does not interfere with their studies. Please contact us if you are interested in pursuing any of these routes.

Lymphatic obstruction is a blockage of the lymph vessels that drain fluid from tissues throughout the body and allow immune cells to travel where they are needed. Lymphatic obstruction may cause lymphedema, which means swelling due to a blockage of the lymph passages.
The most common reason for lymphatic obstruction is the removal or enlargement of the lymph nodes.
Causes of lymphatic obstruction include:
In Western societies, one of the most common causes of lymphedema is removal of the breast (mastectomy ) and underarm lymph tissue for breast cancer. This causes lymphedema of the arm in 10 - 15% of patients, because the lymphatic drainage of the arm passes through the armpit (axilla).
Rare forms of lymphedema that are present from birth (congenital) may result from problems in the development of the lymphatic vessels.
The main symptom is persistent (chronic) swelling, usually of the arm or leg.
The doctor will perform a physical exam and ask questions about your medical history.
The following tests may be done:
Treatment for lymphedema includes:
Manual lymph drainage is a light massage therapy technique in which the skin is moved in certain directions based on the structure of the lymphatic system. This helps the lymph fluid drain through the proper channels.
Treatment also includes skin care to prevent injuries, infection, and skin breakdown, as well as light exercise and movement programs. Exercise should be carefully designed by your doctor and a physical therapist. It should help drainage without leading to swelling, which could make your condition worse.
Wearing compression stockings on the affected area or using a pneumatic compression pump on and off may be helpful. Your doctor and physical therapist will decide which compression methods are best.
Surgery is used in some cases, but it has limited success. The surgeon must have a lot of experience with this type of procedure. You will still need physical therapy after surgery to reduce lymphedema.
Types of surgery include:
Rarely, the surgeon will bypass abnormal lymph tissue using vein grafts. These procedures are not usually successful and are often done experimentally.
Lymphedema is a chronic disease that usually requires lifelong management. In some cases, lymphedema improves with time. However, some swelling is usually permanent.
In addition to swelling, the most common complications include:
You must be vigilant about skin care and hygiene. There is also a small risk of developing a lymph-tissue type of cancer.
See your doctor if you have swelling of your arms, legs, or lymph nodes that does not go away.
Most surgeons now use a technique called sentinel lymph node sampling to reduce your risk of lymphedema after breast cancer surgery. However, this technique is not always appropriate or effective.

An ingrown toenail happens when a portion of the toenail curves into the flesh of the toe. It then imbeds itself in the soft tissue. It can occur on any of the toes. However, it usually occurs on one of the big toes.
Risk Factors
The main risk factor that increases your chances of having ingrown toenails is having family members with ingrown toenails.
Other risk factors include:
- Improper cutting or trimming of the toenail
- Wearing footwear that is too tight
- Repeated trauma to the toes, often due to sports activities
- Diabetes
- Fungal infections of the toenails
- Turner syndrome
- Arthritis
- Gout
Ingrown toenails often do not cause symptoms at first. Eventually, the following symptoms may develop:
- Pain—sometimes severe
- Redness
- Swelling
- Warmth
- Pus draining from the area
In almost all cases, you or your doctor can diagnose an ingrown toenail based on the location and the symptoms.
In rare cases, you may need an x-ray . For example, if your doctor suspects an infection may have spread to the toe bone.
You may be able to treat an ingrown toenail yourself if you catch it early. If the condition gets worse or does not improve, you will need to seek medical care. If you have diabetes, you must seek medical attention for any infection or wound involving your feet or toes.
You may be able to care for an ingrown toenail yourself. Some of the following may help:
- Wear open-toed shoes or sandals until the pain and swelling of the nail subsides. This will reduce any pressure on the toenail.
- Soak your foot in warm water for 15 minutes, 3-4 times a day.
- After soaking, dry your foot and toe thoroughly.
- As the toenail grows out, cut it straight across.
Promptly seek medical care for an ingrown toenail if you have any of the following conditions:
- Fever
- An ingrown toenail that is severe, worsening, or not getting better
- Diabetes
- Age: over 50 years
- Circulatory problems
- A disorder of your immune system
- Any other chronic health problem
Medical Care
Your doctor may recommend the following treatments:
- Oral antibiotic medication
- Removing the ingrown portion of the toenail
- Draining the area that has become infected
- Using a splint to lift the corner of the nail away from the soft tissue of the toe
If you repeatedly get ingrown toenails, or your ingrown toenail is severe, your doctor may:
- Remove a portion of the toenail and apply medication to the site to prevent that portion of the nail from growing back
- Remove the entire toenail so that the nail will not grow back
To help prevent ingrown toenails:
- Cut your toenails straight across and avoid rounding the edges. The corner of the nail should be visible above the skin of your toe.
- Wear shoes and socks that fit properly and are not too tight.
- Keep your feet clean.
- Keep your feet dry by wearing cotton socks and/or using foot powder.

I have owned 4 other Covercraft covers, but this is my first Noah. It is a very light cover and takes up a fair amount of room for as small as it is (MX-5 Miata cover). Seems to keep the rain and dirt off the car pretty well so far. Nice tight fit, don't have to worry about it blowing off. The best part is the antenna pocket, didn't have to poke any holes in it to fit over the antenna.

quote:You're playing into the stereotype. Louisiana is probably as least racist a state as they come. We are whites and blacks living side by side. You want to see racism go to the northeast, visit NY and NJ....
quote:Blacks can be very racist, perhaps since there are high black populations in those states you find a lot of racism there?

Duck Confit, House-made - pkg
Formaggio Kitchen Exclusive
Country of Origin: United States
Region: Massachusetts
City / Village: Cambridge
We cure fresh Moulard duck legs for three days in a blend of parsley, thyme, shallots, garlic, salt and pepper. After the cure, the legs are rinsed and gently poached in a silky pool of duck fat. Once the legs are cooled, they remain in their fat for a week. Once ready, we package two legs (about 23 ounces) in a vacuum sealed bag with plenty of their rendered fat to help preserve them.
There are several great ways to use our duck legs, but one of our favorites is to pull the meat off the bone and spread over a green salad. If you want to reheat, you can put the sealed bag in a pot of gently boiling water for ten minutes at which point, the meat should be warmed through. You can also reheat them in a pre-heated oven at 325F for 15 minutes.

A Form is an objective "blueprint" of perfection. The Forms are perfect themselves because they are unchanging. For example, say we have a triangle drawn on a blackboard. A triangle is a polygon with 3 sides. The triangle as it is on the blackboard is far from perfect. However, it is only the intelligibility of the Form "triangle" that allows us to know the drawing on the chalkboard is a triangle, and the Form "triangle" is perfect and unchanging. It is exactly the same whenever anyone chooses to consider it; however, the time is that of the observer and not of the triangle.
