Ohio Democrat, The (Newspaper) - September 11, 1890, New Philadelphia, Ohio IN WOMAN'S BEHALF NEW FIELDS h SURPRISING SUCCESS Woman's Chances for Earning a hood Ever Increasing New fields are opening for women all tho time until now there are few things tli at a man can do that a woman can not also do Tho old maxim Where there's a will there's always a has been fully illustrated in New York lately and no doubt is in many other cities and villages every week month and year only we don t always hear of it A bright little woman of whom the New York speaks of as an had seen better days and when young had been to wealth and position a coachman and a carriage a maid and many other luxuries found herself most alone in the world and with a ter to support could she eral things fairly well but nothing that would gain for her a livelihood and yot she was earnest faithful and willing to do any thing honorable At last a py thought struck her and she com- making rag dolls of coarse jean and stuffing with cotton Dressed in dainty print trimmed with lace and with little bonnets perched on their heads they really very line and were soon in great demand A Brooklyn young lady well-known in so ciety circles offered to paint the faces of the and so another Held for women simple and humble thou it is Some years ago a poor old lady who was trying to earn an honest living de to open a hospital for broken and disabled dolls and soon she had more work than sue could do Some dolls were minus a leg or arm some bad broken their a few had lost an eye and others wanted a new wardrobe And so this dear little woman who was always the children's friend and Auntie to one and all found her vocation A repairer of toys a good ness in many of the large cities for in every nursery is found many valuable toys that are broken or have come apart and a little glue a few tacks or nails or a needle and thread mixed with brains as the artist said are only needed to make thorn all right and as good as new A bright girl who is decidedly tic and loves children recently opened a mow field for herself and other clever girls She had noticed from time to time that the children of wealthy parents were frequently dressed in such a manner as to look really dowdyish One day she saw a beautiful child sitting in a carriage dressed in a most ing suit and the thought occurred to her that if suits were designed ly for children perhaps they would find a ready sale So home she went and after learning the name of the child's mother she procured material and de- signed a most artistic and beautiful tle costume This she sent to tho mother with a note of explanation ing if she purchased it no one else should have one like it The lady was delighted with it and glad to purchase it Since then this bright girl has taken many orders for some of the wealthiest and most influential women of Now York and has established a ular business She informs herself on all subjects that relate to dress and designing and is making of this business She bids fair to make a large fortune and is already earning a good income The Ladies Guide Association which was organized in London is an excellent thing and opens another avenue to women for earning a livelihood It is a very remunerative occupation for women who have been suddenly thrown on their own resources without a knowledge of any one thing that will aarn a living Mrs Sophia the able and efficient business manager of the En- and Mining Journal is an illustration of the fact that girls and women can by their own hard work patience and perseverance work them- selves up from a low to a high position A writer in a leading paper says of The whole discipline of the large office is in her hands and business men who go in and out say there are few offices in the city where courtesy is so prompt and general and where every thing moves so smoothly on hinges She thoroughly understands business and has made self invaluable A rising young man who has recently teen elected president of the New York Sketch Club recently I don't see why more women do not study archi- There is no pleasanter or more remunerative profession Who is ter fitted for planning tho interior of a house than a woman who must spend the greater part of her life within its In time and with study she would soon learn how the exterior should be Several women in Buffalo Philadelphia and other cities already are doing a good I have ly heard two middle-aged ladies ting that they did not study for they seem especially fitted for that profession As designers of carpets women are fame and fortune Mrs Charles was elected ident of the Medina Valley Railway Company Februrary last and is the first woman in the United States ever elected to a similar position Tho world does move and America s grand women are freer to make for themselves a name and fortune than over Carrie May Aston in dies Home Companion Advance of Women 111 State of When Harriet Martineau visited America she astonished Great Britain by writing home only seven occupations are open to women Now thoro aro upward of 300 in New City alono according to tho United States of Labor Mr H G Wadlin statistician of the Massachusetts Labor Bureau in his State report has collected some remark- able facts regarding the industrial of the women In 1885 the female population of tho Bay State was of whom 000 were engaged in twenty-one tries Thoro were partners or holders in various manufacturing con- cerns In 1875 there were music teachers and in 1885 tho keeper had increased from to the saleswomen from to the educational teachers from to 094 the accountants from to 504 the operators on clothing from 345 to tho operators on cotton goods from to and the mill hands from to In the ing and bookbinding firms the increase is from to 2.340 in rubber and tic goods from to In women wore furnished with home employment in the number had fallen to showing that the tendency in all industries more and more toward factory ment rather than home work Twenty-five years ago very few worn en left home for employment they bound shoes made caps shirts under wear and children's clothing bats bas kets mittens stockings carpets and yarn in their kitchens but all this is changed now The factories have mul machinery has done away with all hand labor and the women have been compelled to follow the work Mr Wadlin says in his re- port has made an entrance into the industrial world has increased her hold upon old branches of occupation and forced her way into many new ones She is better educated for active em- ployment better able to grapple with the difficulties of business than ever be- fore and having tasted of the sweets of independence by being able to support herself and help others one is forced to conclude that woman's position in in- dustry is secure and will bo permanent Every occupation but those calling for too much outdoor exposure or too much muscular labor is open to woman and if she has not already secured a footing therein the next census will show that she lias found a way THE TRUST CROP Reasons Private Robert J expresses himself as Why am 1 a woman Be- cause I am Because a woman good hard common sense than a man Because she doesn't give SI 50 for an article that she knows very well she can get for seventy-five cents Because she does not stalk loftily away from the counter without her change if the bor behind it is a little reluctant about counting it out Because she is too in- dependent to pay tho landlord 83.35 for her dinner and then pay the waiter one dollar to send her a waiter who will bring it to her for fifty cents Because she will hold her money ly in her own good little right hand for two hours until she first gets a receipt for it from the fellow who made her husband pay the same three times last year Not any Just give you credit for it for her Because one day a Pullman porter complained to me No money on this trip too many women aboard Don't never get nothin out of a woman just her regular fare I had just paid him twenty-five cents for blacking one of my boots and losing the other and when he said that when I saw for myself the heroic firmness of those women traveling alono paying their fare and refusing to pay the ies of the employes of a wealthy ation I These women have a right to vote To By all that is brave and self-reliant and sensible they have a right to run the Hew Activity In tlie Growth New All at aud ive to Like Not Want Cheap and go on equal force While the high tariff advances in Washington are getting gether to reap the full benefit that the lew tariff law will give them The most recent case ia that of the satinet who met in cester Mass representatives being present from nearly all the important mills in the country At this meeting action was taken to devise a plan of consolidation similar to that adopted by the card clothing makers It ia the dispatch goes on to say by close combination to reduce the number of commission houses and lessen competition The second new trust is that of the card clothing men which will be known under the corporate title of the ican Card Clothing Company There are fifteen firms associated together in this trust One of the objects of the trust is as stated by one of the men in it to fix up a reasonable scale of prices They are materially aided in this venture by the higher protective duties given them by Major McKinley who We want no return to cheap times in our own country The trust McKinley are of one mind on the subject of keeping up prices A third trust is getting ready for Operations Not long ago four of the six manufacturers of twine in this country met in New York to consider the question of uniting with the sale twine dealers in order to maintain a scale of prices and to prevent cutting that has hitherto injured both parties An agreement was reached which is to go into effect as soon as it is signed by the two manufacturers who were absent One of tho manufacturers who was ent said that these two firms would without doubt agree to the arrangement in a very short time as the conditions were so evidently to their advantage The fourth trust is the tableware glass trust News comes from Findlay O that all the tableware glass factories in the in have completed arrangements with an English syndicate giving it the control of the entire glassware business in the United States One of the first things to be done by the it is an- will be to shut down a ber of the factories in districts where fuel is costly This trust also bad tho way smoothed down for it by the good Major McKinley He put largely in- creased duties on table glassware The Senate cut these down in some cases to the present rate and in other cases allowed an increase somewhat less than had given This seems a very appropriate time to pass Senator Plumb's amendment to the Tariff for the admission at duty of all articles controlled by trusts Senator Sherman ought to support that amendment No longer than last Octo- ber he The primary object of a protective tariff is to invite tlie fullest on by and corporations In domestic tion If such individuals or corporations combine to advance the price of tho tic product and to prevent the Iree result of open and f ilr competition 1 would without hesitation reduce the duties on foreign

the face of a fact like this what ia the use for McKinley to try to humbug the farmer by raising the duty on wheat from twenty cents a bushel to five cents and on cora from ten cents to Of these two articles we Imported ing the fiscal year ended June 30 just worth from all countries In attempting to shut out that trifle Kinley has injured our foreign market for wheat and corn more than four times as much for a single month and for a single country To put the matter in a still more striking light for every dollar's worth of corn and wheat that he prevents from coming into this country from all other countries he cuts off sixty dollars worth from the farmer's foreign market in a single country And such is the quality of But it is not France alone that is ing us back our fold Canada takes a

that N K banks Co the extensive pork ers of have leased premises in Montreal and go into tho lard ness there The report states that they could not sell their American lard in Canada owing to tho duty Of course Canadian farmers will furnish the hogs for this Montreal ment This example shows not only how narrows the market for our farm products but also how it drives American capital out of tho

of France's Retaliatory Duty on Our Grain Narrowing the Farmer's Foreign of Ada's Outy on Our tow and the of the Farmer By her recently adopted tariff laws France collects a duty of fifteen cents a bushel on grain imported from other European countries but on grain from the United States the new duty is cents a bushel which is prohibitory Why this discrimination against It is a dose of which France has prepared for us to pay us back for the high tariff folly of tho party in Tho McKinley Ad- ministrative Customs which went Into effect on August 1 lays great in tho way of buying and im- porting the foreign goods that wo need and Franco was very much wrought up over it as well as over tho other and still worse McKinley which is yet to come France has simply given us a dose of McKinley medicine but it must bo noticed that it is our farmers who have to take it and thus as Blaine points out our foreign market for breadstuffs grows narrower But what will bo the precise effect of this French duty on Tho latest reports from the Treasury Department present the following in- Our exports of corn and wheat to France for the fiscal year ended Juno 30 were valued and for last year Here is an average of eight and a half million lars cut off from our farmers foreign market at a single stroke and all on account of McKinley The effect of those French duties Tory clearly show by comparing our exports to France in June with tho same month this Tho duty has but re- cently been imposed in that country but already for tho month of Juno there Is a most remarkable falling off in our cl wheat and corn to France A HOME MARKET A Case Illustrating tho of tlic Home Idea The census returns of the State of Connecticut offer a very interesting commentary on home market ideas of the protectionists That home market idea is thus stated in tha organ of tho Protective Tariff In every village surrounded by farms there should be located manufacturing of some kind that will employment to operatives The wants ot these people will create a demand for food clothing and sh Her and tho product of farm and will be ever in demand Nothing will be wasted in transportation anJ labor will reap tho entire harvest According to that notion a State with one or more factories in every village ought to bo particularly prosperous in its agricultural interests As cut is a State whose manufacturing in- are highly diversified and in which a mill of some kind is found in close proximity to every farming com- munity the State ought to furnish tho protectionist with a shining example of his home market idea The population there ought to be very and consequently growing in numbers But what are the Tho farming communities nearest the cities of Con- are shown by tho recent sus to have lost about ten per cent of their population in tho past ten years This result is arrived at by taking tho three townships lying nearest each of the twelve cities in tho State So great a decline in population in these farming districts right at tho doors of the factories does not look very encouraging for protectionists Their home market theory breaks down when tested by experience Toledo m 7 m I m 4 m 715 Oak

flood of cheap goods has not ruined On the contrary she has much moro than doubled her wealth in ten And without a tariff to keep out cheap Western farmer has no interest whatever in a protective

BIOGRAPHY: Rotated in and out of the lineup last season finishing the year with 16/4.5/1.5. Started 11 games as a junior posting career-high numbers of 30/8.5/4.
POSITIVES: Powerful defensive lineman with an inconsistent motor. Stout on the inside, holds his ground, and pushes opponents up the field. Gets off the snap with a good first step, plays with good pad level, and has a closing burst.
NEGATIVES: Lumbers about the field, lacks the ability to quickly change direction, and does not play with a sense of urgency. Poor hand technician and makes himself an easy target for blockers.
ANALYSIS: Morton has the physical skills to be used at a number of defensive line positions, but he is an underachiever who rarely works at his game and he lacks the intensity needed to make it at the next level.
PROJECTION: Undrafted Free Agent

It has been exactly ten years since Sforza Ristorante threw open its big glass doors for the first time at 223 Clematis St. The day Sforza debuted its Italian menu was a milestone in West Palm Beach history — it looked like the sun was finally rising again on a city so depressed and crime-ridden that you needed bulletproof windows to cruise the main drag. I remember Sforza well: It seemed terribly chic at the time, with its deep-maroon velvet interiors and sidewalk café tables, so sophisticated in the way they'd push back the furniture after dinner and turn the long room into a dance party. The place was always mobbed with girls in little black dresses and guys with spiky haircuts — the young architects, planners, web start-up brats, and P.R. people who'd just moved in nearby to the refurbished office lofts and the cute, new, affordable housing, all angling to grab their piece...

Stopover on the way...
Posted Jul 21, 2013Quick stopover on long drive. Not somewhere I'd want to stay for more than a night.
for Familiesby A verified traveler
10 min to just about everything in Sacramento!
Posted Jun 8, 2013Cons: The pool area deck was very slippery when it was wet. Grandson, age 18mos, slipped few times and fell, but did not hurt himself.
Staff was very helpful/courteous upon check-in. All of our requests were handled promptly. The ONLY thing that needed to be changed was the BREAKFAST room. It was very small to manuever around in with a plate of food and hot coffee. Not enough seating. The food was very good, and the attendant was excellent!
for Everyoneby Grant from South Lake Tahoe
They need an elevator
Posted Apr 24, 2013Pros: Staff
Cons: breakfast and noise from people dragging their suitcases up the stairs
Location: Good
The staff is great, but the cable reception sucked and the breakfast room is not welcoming at all and there is not much to eat anyway.
for Everyoneby Shibalvr from Santa Clara, CA, USA
Awesome for Couples and Dog lovers..
Posted Apr 15, 2013Pros: The Frig and the room, hubby liked the river the best.
Cons: The old rundown looking Resturant out front.
Location: Perfect on off I-5.
We were in town for the 2 day dog show at Cal-Expo. Super close. It was a perfect stay! Check in was quick. Late check in though, 4PM. Check out was 12. Checked into our lovely, updated clean spacious room 152 on River side. Passed Pool and Hotub as well as Icemaker on way to room. Down the way was room as a GYM. Room 152 was downstairs outfitted with 2 queen beds, flat screen, round eating table and chairs under window, writing desk and chair, two chest of drawers. Refrig and microwave. Ice bucket and plenty of glasses. Thermostat heat/air controlled from far wall. Unit was actually under window though. Bathroom area had marble and two mirrors Long over sink and counter and tall for dressing! Coffee Maker and all the toiletries needed. Blow dryer too. Closet had Ironing board and a plenty of space as well as a separate suitcase valise if needed out in the room. Bathroom was very nice and had all you need for bath/shower, shampoo, conditioner and Lotion. Beautiful walk to beach and river. The dogs loved it!! Sunsets were awesome. Beware of foxtails in spring/summer if you have dogs keep them on walkways. We had two small dogs, $15 a night, no big deposit. In AM, went to Front row of units for a super breakfast of bagels or waffles as we had early dog show times and had to be quick with our coffee and hot chocolate. Great for a quick fix.
for Everyoneby Claudia from Reno, Nevada

Councilors to hear new Spice ordinance
ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - At Monday night's city council meeting, councilors are set to talk about a new rule that could shut down stores caught selling spice or synthetic marijuana.
It would make those businesses part of the "three strikes and you're out" rule.
City councilor Debbie O'Malley says she's fighting for the new rules after a scary experience with a man who was high on spice.
"He said he had smoked some spice he said he could run and jump and he had hurt himself he said wanted my phone he needed to call his dad and it just got very scary," O'Malley said.
City councilors could also make stores caught selling bath salts part of the new rule too.

Old hotel, but quite well kept. Was there for 1 night so cannot comment in many details but the impression is not best. Chaotic check in, the staff not sure what to do with frequent flier card for points accrual.
Iron supposed to be in the room which is good, but was impossible to find and it took long with the reception for them to figure out what to do.
If you are having room at the ground floor with the view on parking lot, also nothing to rave about.
So weak and not good impression and I am not willing to come back again.
However, the location in the dunes is nice. But this is the nature and nothing to do with the hotel...

Environmentalists, tribe seek to halt GE megaloads
BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Environmentalists and the Nez Perce Tribe told a federal judge Monday he was their last hope in stopping further shipments of giant oil-field equipment from winding down an Idaho mountain highway toward Canada's tar sands.
Meanwhile, a lawyer for a General Electric Co. subsidiary told U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill that the courts had no authority to interfere with the company's second 225-foot-long, 640,000-pound water evaporator, slated to travel on U.S. Highway 12 on Sept. 18.
Its first evaporator, shipped on the route in August, attracted numerous protesters, 20 of whom were arrested.
The tribe and environmentalists from Idaho Rivers United contend that allowing the next GE shipment will cause irreparable harm to the rights of the Nez Perce people and damage the corridor's environmental values.
Winmill promised a ruling this week.
U.S. 12 is a federally designated Wild and Scenic River corridor along the Lochsa and Clearwater rivers running through the Nez Perce Tribe's reservation and U.S. Forest Service territory.
For three years, it has been ground zero in disputes between foes of big industrial shipments to the oil fields in Alberta — including the Nez Perce Tribe who says the highway isn't the appropriate route — and companies, including ExxonMobil, and now GE, who want to use the highway as the shortest, cheapest alternative.
"Unless this court acts, nobody is going to stop the next megaloads shipment in nine days," Laird Lucas, a lawyer for the shipment foes, told Winmill. Lucas predicts additional protests, if nothing is done.
"There will be public health and safety issues," he said. "The highway will be closed down."
Though ExxonMobil resorted to other Idaho highways to get nearly all of its gear to Canada amid the protest, GE is insisting on U.S. 12, saying delays to getting its equipment to Canada on time could cost it $3.6 million in damages. Richard Boardman, a lawyer for the company's Resources Conservation Company International unit, suggested shipment foes were using the specter of further protests to pressure Winmill.

Theme Paper & Programme
Over the last three decades or so, there has been renewed interest in the relationship between ancient Greece and India. Scholars have devoted considerable attention to the coinage of the Indo-Greeks, Alexander the Great's conquests in north-west India, Gandharan art, and philosophical parallels between Plato and Kautilya, among other subjects. Since the early 1980s, moreover, a new journal, a scholarly society, and a chair of Greek studies have been established in India. It seems appropriate to build on recent developments and to explore ancient India and Greece further in a seminar. We construe the topic of this seminar in broad terms: we would like our investigations to go beyond issues of historical links, cultural origins, or explicit contact and invite participants to suggest innovative approaches to the relationship between the two cultures. Papers could explore similarities between the Mahabharata and the Iliad or Greek motifs in Indian art; they could also reflect on texts that show little direct influence on each other, for example, Greek and Sanskrit love poetry. An important feature of the seminar will be its comparative framework since it gathers together scholars who work in a variety of disciplines. Among the questions to be considered are, What is a suitable framework for the comparative study of ancient Greece and India? What are the cultural and historical contexts for contact between Greece and India? How do the literature, history, philosophy, religion, and material culture of the ancient period reflect interactions between Greece and India? What is the impact of the Indo-Hellenic encounter on subsequent periods? Our focus is mainly on the ancient period, up to the third century AD, but the seminar also welcomes papers covering the reception of the Indo-Greeks in later times, such as the Mughal and British eras.
The details of the working sessions are as follows:
1. Philosophy And The Care Of The Self
The period between the sixth and fourth centuries BC was an age of intellectual ferment where both Greek and Indian thinkers speculated anew on the nature of mortal life and the role of the individual. Human life became an object of knowledge, and intellectuals thought of ideal ways of living, of transforming one's self-understanding, and of marking the transition from this world into the next. This panel looks at Greek and Indian philosophies. Among the topics to considered are: notions of community and individuality in Greece and India; conceptions of the good life; the doctrine of metempsychosis, or transmigration of the soul, in ancient Indian and Greek philosophies; and the practise of celibacy, asceticism, and meat–eating in the two cultures.
2. Conflict And Co-Existence: Alexander's Legacy In The Indo-Iranian Borderlands
After Alexander, north-west India witnessed the growth of eastern satrapies. This period also saw the rise of Greco-Bactrian principalities which, from 180 BC, established their
rule in the Punjab and the area around Kabul. The Greek colonists of Bactria played a pivotal role in the trade routes stretching across Central Asia and into India. As heirs of the Achaemenids and Seleucids, the Greco-Bactrians also left a fascinating legacy, best seen in the Greek art and architecture of Ai Khanum. How does visual culture reflect the interactions of Greeks and Indians? What were the economic and commercial legacies of the Greek presence in these regions of South Asia? How have recently published Bactrian texts enhanced our understanding of this period?
3. Political Philosophy And Statecraft In Principalities, Kingdoms And City-States
Both Plato and Kautilya defined and elaborated upon relations between the ruler and the ruled. Plato's dialogues laid the groundwork of political philosophy in his homeland just as Kautilya's Arthashastra was the quintessential instructional manual for Indian statecraft. This panel will consider how Greek and Indian political philosophies compare with each other. It will also assess how the different political contexts of ancient Greece and India shaped conceptions of politics and political theory.
4. The Representation Of The Other In Art And Text
Herodotus, Ctesias, Megasthenes, and Arrian all write about India, while Indian texts such as Varahmihira's Brihat Samhita refer to yavanas. How do writers of one culture represent and misrepresent the other? Why are they interested in foreigners? What fantasies and anxieties do they reflect? This panel's focus is on cross-cultural representation; it will examine texts from different genres (history, ethnography, drama, etc.) and media (inscriptions, visual culture, and the written word).
5. Comparative Indo-European Studies
Comparative philologists have shown that Sanskrit and Greek belong to the same family of languages and posited an ancient Indo-European worldview. Greek and Indian systems of thought and practice are said to share structural, linguistic, and other affinities. But some of this work has been controversial and calls for further discussion. What can Indo-European studies today contribute to the understanding of ancient India and Greece? How has the work of Georges Dumézil, Mircea Eliade, Gregory Nagy, and other scholars affected our knowledge of the two ancient civilizations? This panel invites analyses of ancient India and Greece from the perspective of comparative Indo-European studies.
6. Reception And Tradition
How is the history of the Greeks received in later periods? Why did Orpheus appear on Shah Jahan's throne in Delhi? What did Victorian Britons, with their obsession with classical antiquity, make of the Greeks in India? This panel provides the opportunity for thinking about the reception of Greeks in the early modern and modern periods and for reassessing the relationship between modernity and antiquity via the Indo-Greek encounter.

Brooklyn resident wins Miss America crown
LAS VEGAS (AP) - A 23-year-old blonde from Brooklyn, N.Y., won the Miss America crown Saturday night after deftly dealing with a question about armed guards in schools and raising the issue of child sexual abuse in her contestant platform.
En route to her victory in the Las Vegas pageant, Mallory Hagan also tap danced to James Brown's "Get Up Off of That Thing," strutted down the runway in an asymmetrical white gown, and donned a revealing black string bikini.
She defeated Miss South Carolina Ali Rogers, who took second, and Miss Oklahoma Alicia Clifton, who finished third.
Hagan wins a $50,000 college scholarship and a year as an instant celebrity and role model to many girls. Her platform, the issue she will promote during her reign, is fighting child sexual abuse.
She told The Associated Press in an interview after her win that it was her mother who encouraged her to tackle the issue. She said that sexual abuse had "rippled through" her family, touching her mother, aunt, grandmother and cousins. Her mother had trouble at first convincing others of the trauma she had faced.
"That kind of sent her into a whirlwind of anxiety and depression. So as a teen I lost my mom kind of for a couple years," she said. "She was dealing with her own issues, and that's something that now as an adult I understand, but then I certainly did not."
During an interview backstage, Hagan's mother Mandy Moore wiped tears away as she spoke.
"It's very overwhelming," she said. "It's all hitting me so fast."
Hagan said she will work to make child abuse education mandatory in all 50 states.
"It's something I can hopefully change for the next generation," she said.
Hagan left her native Alabama for New York at 18 with less than $1,000 in her pocket. She began competing in pageants when she was 13 and tried for Miss New York in 2010 and 2011 before winning last year.
She studied communications at the Fashion Institute of Technology and has been living in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn.
Hagan, who aspires to be a global cosmetic company executive, ends a long dry spell for New York in the competition. The previous winner from that state was actress Vanessa Williams, who became the first black winner when she took the crown in 1984. Hagan is the first Brooklyn-dweller to claim the title.
She was good enough during preliminary contests for the 92nd annual Miss America pageant to be chosen as one of 16 semifinalists who moved on to compete in the main show. Her bid lasted through swimsuit, evening wear, and talent competitions that saw cuts after each round.
In the final moments of the show, "Good Morning America" weatherman Sam Champion asked her if schools should hire armed guards in the wake of the Newtown, Conn. shooting.
"I don't think the proper was to fight violence is with violence," she replied. "I think the proper way is to educate people on guns and the ways we can use them properly. We can lock them up, we can have gun safety classes, we can have a longer waiting period."
Hagan defeated titleholders from all 50 states plus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Several of her competitors had grabbed headlines this year because of their backstories.
Miss District of Columbia plans to undergo a preventive double mastectomy to reduce her risk of breast cancer, which killed her mother and grandmother.
Miss Montana was the pageant's first autistic contestant. Miss Iowa has Tourette's syndrome. And Miss Maine lost more than 50 pounds before winning her state crown.
During the opening number at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip, when all the queens gave short quips about their states, Hagan referenced last year's superstorm, saying, "Sandy may have been swept away our shores but never our spirit."
The pageant, which started as little more than an Atlantic City bathing suit revue, broke viewership records in its heyday and bills itself as one of the world's largest scholarships programs for women.
But like other pageants, the show has struggled to stay relevant as national attitudes regarding women's rights have changed. More recently, the rise of reality television has provided a superabundance of options for Americans interested in seeing attractive young people in competitive pursuits.
Hagan's boyfriend Charmel Maynard said he knows that pageants are dismissed by some, but he hopes Hagan's willingness to take on the sexual abuse issue will lend legitimacy to her new role.
"I don't think it's taken seriously, but I think she's going to be a great ambassador and it could change," he said.

Women's Soccer | Tufts takes down Suffolk handily after dropping NESCAC matchup with Williams
Published: Thursday, October 24, 2013
Updated: Thursday, October 24, 2013 09:10
Tufts fell to Williams 3-1 on the road Saturday in a lopsided and disappointing performance against one of the top teams in the NESCAC. The Jumbos rebounded on Monday to beat Suffolk 7-2 in their last non-conference game of the season, however, which brings their overall record up to 7-5.
Looking solely at the numbers, Williams dominated Tufts. The Ephs took 29 shots on goal to the Jumbos' six, with 13 of those shots on target. Senior goalie Kristin Wright managed to save ten of those shots and kept the Jumbos in the game, but her efforts were not enough. Williams outpaced the Jumbo defense, and players were often left unmarked in the box, giving Williams many dangerous chances, according to coach Martha Whiting.
"Kristin made some really good saves, but we put her in some really tough situations," Whiting said. "Too many times we left players unmarked just a couple of feet away from her. As a goal keeper it's really hard to deal with that."
The Ephs came out firing from the start, with the Jumbos playing a complacent and less confident game. Wright made two saves within the opening five minutes, and the Ephs took another three shots on goal before sinking one in 13 minutes into the half.
A cross came in from the left side, and a Williams player, who had been left unguarded in the box, got a shot off from the six-yard line. Wright deflected the shot and sophomore Nicole Campellone tried to clear it, but freshman Audrey Thomas managed to knock it in for her first goal of the season. According to Wright, one of the main problems on the defensive end was organization and failure to mark players, especially in the box.
"They got off more shots than we were hoping they would," she said. "It would have been better for us on defense if we had been able to block off shots before they happened, but they were pretty good about crossing it in and would shoot from far out."
Williams controlled the pace of much of the first half, taking 15 shots to Tufts' four, but neither team saw the back of the net for the rest of the first half.
The second half was a new game for the Jumbos. Senior tri-captain Anya Kaufmann tied the game up ten minutes into the second half off a ball played through by junior Victoria Stoj. Kaufmann got a step on her two defenders and was able to send the ball past the keeper.
The goal was a morale boost for Tufts, but the Ephs broke open a lead with ten minutes to go, scoring back-to-back goals. The first, off a free kick, put the Ephs in the lead, and the second sealed the deal when freshman Katie Wardlaw was left unmarked in the box, in what Whiting called a "mental mistake."
Williams came into the match with a five-game winning streak and a reputation as one of the NESCAC's best. Williams has won five out of the last six conference championships in a league that is filled with strong teams. According to Kaufmann, Williams has a legacy of being a perennial contender for the championship, which may have contributed to the lack of confidence on the field.
"Every year we play them and they are a really good team," Kaufmann said. "Teams have a legacy and sometimes we come in with those ideas in our mind. Those reputations stay, and Williams has that reputation of being good."
According to Whiting, the team did not react well in the face of the competition and instead played a less aggressive game.
"In the first half it looked like we were playing scared for some reason, and I don't know why," she said. "Williams has been on a winning streak, but I can't quite pinpoint why we were playing that way."
After a productive practice on Sunday, the Jumbos bounced back against Suffolk with a decisive 7-2 win in Boston on Monday. Kaufmann broke the school record for points, tallying seven against the Rams on three goals and one assist. She now has eight goals on the season, the highest total on the team since 2007.
The other standout performances came from freshman Jess Capone, who tied the Tufts record for assists with three and added a goal of her own; freshman Brooke Fortin, who scored two goals and Stoj, who tallied a goal and an assist. First-year Alex Pius also had a notable game, providing the assists for Kaufmann's second goal and Capone's lone goal.
"We were lucky enough to have a game against Suffolk and be able to come around and show that's not really who we are," Wright said. "There is nothing more frustrating than having a bad game and then having to wait a week to play."
The team faces off against seventh-seeded Hamilton this weekend in its second to last conference game.

The lowdown on network monitoring tools
Sep 16, 2004
Related Links
Fine-tuned control
What are they?
Network monitoring tools are software or software/hardware appliances that keep tabs on network traffic down to the last packet. They help you detect network misconfigurations and security problems and determine applications' quality of service.
Typically, they include some form of reporting tool to help analyze traffic; some include advanced functionality that ties directly to network management or other enterprise systems management tools.
Who needs them?
If you have a WAN or support multiple LANs, or support network-intensive applications such as voice over IP or multimedia conferencing, you need network monitoring. It is also an essential element to build tight network security.
What do I look for?
You might need more than one. Point-solution tools provide good forensic capabilities for investigating nagging security and service problems. But to manage a large network, you'll need distributed monitoring so you can see what's going on across your network. Ideally, you'll want integration with other network management tools so you can quickly act on the information from monitoring tools, or automate responses through event- or rule-driven systems.
Must-know info?
As more government networks mandate IPv6 internally, handling quality of service and security will become a lot easier. But the rest of the world is going to be using IPv4 for some time to come.
Look for further integration of network monitoring with automated network management systems to create self-healing, self-maintaining networks that continually optimize themselves based on monitoring data.

beautiful both from outside and inside - the cathedral is a nice oasis in the centre of the heat of Tunis. Come inside, whether to pray or just to escape from the city noise for a moment!
It is a nice place to be quiet and think. It is located in the Habib Bou Rkeba street (Tunis downtown). It is recommended - entrance is for free
In the center of Medina, you find this wonderful cathedral with amazing paintings and wonderful altar. Worth the visit!
This great cathedral is right downtown, on one of the busiest streets in the city. It's architecture is very different from the rest of the city, and it stands out as a beautiful monument. This inside is magnificent, and there is a stunning gold replica of the cathedral which is well worth the visit.
It was really bizarre going to the church in a Muslim country. The cathedral is beautiful and we went just after Xmas so it looked amazing, do have a wonder around its free and well worth it
and poorly lit inside, like the others. But the location is convenient, right on the popular Avenue Habib Bourghiba close to the Medina.
This site was not open to visits while we were in Tunis. But just another French colonial church: there are lots of much more interesting site/visits to do in Tunis/Carthage.
This is an excellent cathedral, and if you pass by it (which you will, since it's very centrally located) continually check on if you can go in, because it is randomly open or closed at strange times. Once inside you can sit and it is calm and cool, and there is a talented organist who seems to practice fairly regularly... More
Can one imagine a mosque in the main road of a city anywhere in a pro-Christian country? Surely not! Well the cathedral of .St. Vincent de Paule boasts of a superb situation on the main Avenue Habib Bourghiba of Tunis! The facade is nice with a lovely mosaic on top and the interior is typical of nouveau Gothic. Bare and... More
another must see while in Tunis. such a wonderful city, there is so much to see and do, this should be up near the top of the list.
