November 17--Pop-Ups |
Some of our favorite books have images that literally pop off the page. If you've ever wondered how pop-ups work, join us for a session making a few simple examples. We began by enjoying The Wide Mouthed Frog and other examples of pop-ups from the library collection. One of the patterns we used is from Robert Sabuda, paper engineer extraordinaire. If you'd like to give it a try, click here for a link to the pattern or here to visit his website. Other ideas came from Joan Irvine's book How to Make Pop-Ups. You can borrow a copy of the book at the library and learn how to make a talking mouth, things on springs, as well as other pop-up mechanisms. |

IRONDIE is a game which uses combinations of nine different types of dice, each with eight different colors. There are endless possibilities for creating personalized sets, so you can surprise your friends with new strategies and combinations every time.
IRONDIE dice are beautifully crafted and can also be used with existing board games, role-playing games or miniature wargames.
IRONDIE dice are made of silver-plated, white metal and covered with a colored translucent paint to highlight their metal luster. Their mass is much more substantive than any plastic or resin die, making for a unique gaming feel and experience.
What is a Rare die? It is a powerful die which has a higher playing and collecting value than a Common die.
It can easily be distinguished from common dice because of the special graphic patterns carved on it.
A Rare die applies the Color Bonus (the so called "1 rule") also when it scores "2".
This peculiarity significantly increases its power. But remember, a Set can include a maximum of three Rare dice, so you'd better decide wisely which of your precious Rare dice you want in each of your Sets.

The agency is concerned that with more investment firms acquiring or otherwise becoming involved with insurance companies, insurers are making potentially risky bets with some of the money needed to fulfill contracts that many customers depend on to supplement their Social Security checks and other retirement savings.

More quote details and news » for information related to their role in a deal that will significantly expand an insurer with ties to Apollo, the people said. Another firm, Tiptree Financial Partners LP, also received a subpoena over its acquisition of an insurer, one of the people said.
An Apollo spokesman said the firm "looks forward" to providing information to the New York regulator, adding that none of its private-equity funds are invested in the insurer being scrutinized, which has ample capital. A Guggenheim spokesman said the firm welcomes the inquiry, adding it will underscore the benefits of its significant and long-term investments in insurance companies over decades. Harbinger, Goldman and Global Atlantic declined to comment, and Tiptree couldn't be reached.
The agency is seeking emails, memos, investor pitch-books and financial forecasts related to the investment firms' insurance businesses, as well as more information on how the businesses are funded and their investment strategies, the people said.
The investigation is in its early stages, they said. A subpoena is a legal demand for information and doesn't signal wrongdoing by the recipients. The agency isn't currently concerned about illegal activity, but wants to learn more about the insurance companies' plans as it considers potential new regulations, the people said.
The subpoenas come about a month after the Department of Financial Service's superintendent, Benjamin M. Lawsky, vowed to scrutinize what he called the "troubling role" investment firms are playing in acquiring insurance companies or managing money on their behalf.
In an April speech, Mr. Lawsky raised concerns that these insurance companies could be making high-risk investments instead of the basic, steady bets on high-quality bonds traditional insurers usually place with policyholders' money.
Insurers with ties to private-equity firms and other investment firms now account for about 15% of the total fixed-annuity market, up from 4% in 2012, Mr. Lawsky said in the speech.
People close to the investment firms say that most investments their related insurers make continue to be in assets with high credit ratings, with only a small slice devoted to riskier bets. In getting involved in annuities, the financial firms must maintain certain capital reserves and follow other regulations that apply to traditional insurers.
The most-basic types of fixed annuities promise payments at specified interest rates to retirees and other customers over the life of a contract.
Many traditional insurers have been selling their fixed-annuity businesses as they struggle to earn money amid rock-bottom interest rates. Insurers try to earn more on their investments than they promise to customers, a difficult proposition when some older contracts on their books guarantee returns similar to those that come with high-quality corporate bonds.
In many instances, the investment firms are acquiring the businesses at cut-rate prices, and believe their investment savvy with holdings like mortgage bonds, private-equity funds and offbeat investments such as stakes in a professional baseball team will help them make substantial profits, according to analysts and some executives at the companies. Mr. Lawsky's agency recently approved the acquisition of a New York insurer by a company with ties to Apollo.
Critics have emerged, including regulators and some executives at traditional insurers facing competition from these industry newcomers. They say the nontraditional owners' higher risk tolerance could end badly if the economy worsens. Mr. Lawsky and his staff are concerned some insurers now are increasingly investing in pools of loans that get packaged and sold to investors such as collateralized debt obligations and mortgage-backed securities, which suffered during the financial crisis, say people familiar with their thinking.
Athene Holding Ltd., a Bermuda-based company funded by an Apollo affiliate and formed in 2008, has acquired insurance companies with a collective $16.2 billion in assets. Guggenheim, a fast-growing money manager that oversees more than $170 billion in assets, in 2010 formed a group of investors to buy and shore up Security Benefit Life, a Kansas insurer that suffered significant losses in mortgage bonds during the financial crisis.

The deal, expected to close later this year, would add between $35 billion and $45 billion to Athene's balance sheet, making it the U.S.'s second-largest seller of fixed indexed annuities, which are tied to certain market indices.
Athene plans to sell Aviva's U.S. life-insurance business to a subsidiary of Global Atlantic as part of the deal, the companies have said. Mr. Lawsky's agency is seeking more information on the transaction, the people said.
More than 90% of Athene's assets are with investments deemed by insurance watchdogs to have good credit ratings or a medium amount of risk, said Apollo President Marc Spilker during a May investor call.
Only about 6% of the company's assets are with so-called "alternatives" in various Apollo funds, he said. About half that 6% is invested in private-equity-style funds that own small petroleum companies in Texas and certain real-estate assets, among other things, said a person familiar with the matter.
Athene is well capitalized, maintains money reserves that regulators require and employs a management team "focused on creating safe, consistent long-term returns," Mr. Spilker said on the investor call.
Guggenheim's shareholders have operated insurance companies for decades and they have performed well and withstood the financial crisis, a spokesman said. Guggenheim's shareholders are "good owners of insurance companies" and "not short-term focused," the spokesman said.
Guggenheim's chief executive led a group last year that acquired the Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team for $2.15 billion, including about $100 million from several insurance companies, according to a person familiar with the deal.

Roger Ellis, a veterinarian with more than more than 30 years experience in the livestock industry, has been hired as the beef feedlot field specialist for SDSU Extension.
While he will have an office in the Aberdeen Regional Extension Center, he will travel the entire state.
Ellis, 58, will consult with the feedlot industry, offer outreach services and serve as a liaison between producers and the animal sciences department at South Dakota State University.
Originally from Nebraska, he received his bachelor's degree and doctor of veterinary medicine degree from Colorado State University. He worked as a veterinarian in private practice for 23 years. Most recently, he worked at the University of Georgia as a beef production management specialist.
It is expected that there will be an increase in cattle numbers at feedlots because of the new Northern Beef Packers plant, Ellis said. New processing plants tend to increase cattle production in the area because of the benefits of having a nearby plant, he said.
One of the challenges of his position will be helping cattle producers and feedlot owners deal with the ebbs and flows of profitability and navigate changes in the industry, he said.

When Andy Kwon began playing football as a sophomore, he looked up to senior Manrey Saint-Amour.
Saint-Amour signed with Georgia Southern where he's now the starting center.
Kwon will get to join his former teammate next year after he committed to Georgia Southern over the weekend.
"It's a good school. The program is rising, the coaches are great. At the end of the day they wanted what was best for me," Kwon said.
Kwon committed to Georgia Southern over an offer from Presbyterian and interest from several Division I-FCS programs. Kwon starts at center for North and is being recruited as a center/guard.
"Southern had a big crowd (when I visited)," Kwon said. "They have a great game day atmosphere."
Kwon maintains a 3.5 GPA and plans to major is sports management. He is the third North senior to make a college commitment, joining Donnie Miles (North Carolina) and Jalen Brooks (Maryland).

Turkish soldier killed, 30 injured in Izmir bus attack
Press TV, Iran
An ambush on a military bus in western Turkey has left one soldier dead and at least 11 others injured. The attack took place as the vehicle was on its way to a military post near a town in Izmir Province. The assailants detonated a roadside bomb before opening fire on the bus. The attackers' identities have yet to be revealed, but officials are pointing their fingers at the dissident Kurdistan Workers' Party, also known as the PKK. Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu accuses Syria of supplying weapons to the PKK.
Sectarian violence displaces thousands of Rohingyas in Myanmar
Press TV, Iran
Muslims in Myanmar are living under extremely conditions. Scores of Rohingya Muslims are being killed in Myanmar's western Rakhine Province; a military crackdown has forced tens of thousands of them out of their homes. Most have left for neighboring countries such as Bangladesh; others are living in camps inside Myanmar. Press TV goes to Yangon to meet with Rohingya activists and with some of the country's Buddhists, who do not recognize the Rohingyas as an ethnic group in Myanmar.
Indonesians in Jakarta rally against mistreatment of Myanmar's Rohingyas
Press TV, Iran
In the Indonesian capital Jakarta, crowds of people have gathered in front of Myanmar's embassy expressing anger at the mistreatment of Rohingya Muslims. The organizers of the rally say that they want Myanmar to stop the violence immediately, and to recognize the Rohingyas as official citizens. Protestors also demand the expulsion of Myanmar's ambassador from their country.
UN: Congo facing 'catastrophic humanitarian crisis'
BBC Arabic, UK
Presenter, Male #1
UN Emergency Relief Coordinator Valerie Amos warned of a worsening humanitarian crisis in the Democratic Republic of Congo if relief organizations operating there do not receive the necessary support to offer humanitarian aid, such as food and basic services, to residents fleeing the ongoing violence between government forces and the rebels, ongoing since May.
Reporter, Female #1
This child's situation is similar to many other children in Congo, and is among 250,000 people who were displaced due to the violence between government forces and the rebels in the area of Luchero that started in May.
Reporter, Female #1
Kanyaruchinya is one of the camps that residents sought refuge in after fleeing acts of violence and the dangers that threaten their safety. Youths and children are being forced to fight with the rebels, and many women are getting raped.
Reporter, Female #1
The inhabitants of the camp say they are living under bad conditions. A severe food shortage is forcing children to search for leftovers in these containers, and their mothers are forced to beg. UN Relief Coordinator Valerie Amos confirmed that the lack of funding is hindering relief efforts. She warned that if relief organizations operating in the Congo do not receive the necessary funds of 791 million dollars, that the humanitarian crisis will worsen. However, these organizations have not even received half that amount.
Guest, Female #2 (Valerie Amos, UN Relief Coordinator)
The situation is very bad; people want to return to their homes and they want safety. There are many children, and there isn't a suitable shelter for them, or food. We will try to do what we can to reduce the impact of the fighting, but the great number of refugees makes the mission difficult.
Reporter, Female #1
During her visit, Amos is working to bring the attention of the donors to the refugees' suffering in the Congo. These refugees are looking forward to achieving a peace treaty between the government and the rebels so calm can be restored to their country. This would end the humanitarian and political crisis the country is witnessing. Samah Hamdan, BBC.
Cradle of Tunisian uprising demands Sidi Bouzid's liberation
BBC Arabic, UK
Presenter, Male #1
In Tunisia, one person was wounded with a rubber bullet, and four people asphyxiated, when the police dispersed a protest by the opposition in the town of Sidi Bouzid with rubber bullets and tear gas. Protestors were demanding the resignation of the government that is headed by the Islamic Nahda party. Joining us from Tunisia is Mohamed Mazam, a leader in the Tunisian Labor Party. Mr. Mazam, why are there protests in Sidi Bouzid in particular, and what is happening there?
Guest, Male #2 (Mohamed Mazam, Tunisian Labor Party Leader)
The protests in Sidi Bouzid are not new; they did not start today. Many protests have been held recently. The protests are over the continuous power and water outages, and some workers have also been protesting in demand of their rights. Many residents and youths are demanding an improvement to their social conditions. But the government faced these demonstrations with a crackdown and arrests.
Guest, Male #2
Today, the residents of Sidi Bouzid organized a large number of people, through a call by the December 17th front, which is a front that includes a number of parties active in the struggle. The residents organized a demonstration under the banner of "Liberating Sidi Bouzid" to bring attention to the deteriorating situation in the town, and to demand the release of prisoners arrested during protests over water and power outages, and to demand an improvement to their social conditions. The protest was also a rejection of the policies adopted by the local authorities, and the head of the security department in Sidi Bouzid, and also the public prosecutor. Residents in Sidi Bouzid believe these officials are ignoring the demands and rights of the front, while seeking to serve the interests of the ruling party.
Libya celebrates transfer of power to elected assembly
Al-Alam, Iran

In Libya, the General National Congress held its first session after being elected last month, and received power from the National Transitional Council, which ruled Libya after the fall of the former government. During the session, the president of the National Transitional Council, Mustafa Abdel al-Jalil, passed the reins to the oldest member of the assembly, chosen to preside over the council in the coming phase.
Reporter, Male #2
This day will go down in the history of the Libyan people. Following the ousting of the previous regime, the new Libya is taking an important step toward democracy. Many observers have described this step as symbolic, but it is a peaceful transition of power that Tripoli has not experienced for four decades. Here, in a luxury hotel in the Libyan capital, the conference hall was packed with representatives of diplomatic missions, members of the National Transitional Council, government officials, and the heads of political parties. They are here to witness the handover of power from the National Transitional Council to the General National Congress that was elected last month.
Guest, Male #3 (Mustafa Abdel al-Jalil, Libyan National Transitional Council Head)
The National Transitional Council hands over the constitutional duties for leading the state to the general national congress, which from this historical moment on is the sole legitimate representative of the Libyan people.
Reporter, Male #2
So this is how the official legitimacy of an unelected council, that led a political and diplomatic revolt on the Gaddafi regime, is transferred. The council had led the affairs of the country during the months of the transitional phase, and now another phase is starting. The General National Congress will choose a new government, and lead the country toward new elections on the basis of a new constitution.
Reporter, Male #2
As for the people who have long waited for this moment, alongside other important moments that brought an end to the Gaddafi rule, they filled Martyrs' Square; the square that was known as Green Square during the rule of the Libyan colonel. The Libyan people held their own celebrations, away from the official ceremony attended by political and diplomatic figures.
Guest, Male #4
What a beautiful feeling, the feeling of a free Libya. Today is a very happy occasion.
Guest, Female #1
Today I took my vengeance. They took the dearest people away from me. This is the best thing that has happened!
Reporter, Male #2
This time, the transfer of power was peaceful, unlike the events of last year. So the Libyan people are hopeful that things will be better in the coming months of the recently-elected assembly's rule, but the challenges toward democracy are still difficult. Security issues are arising in the large Libyan cities from time to time, forcing the security services to deploy a large number of their forces in the capital Tripoli.
Syrian rebels retreat from Aleppo under fire, as Assad appoints new prime minister
Future TV, Lebanon
Presenter, Female #1
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported the killing of over 80 people today by the gunfire of Assad's brigades. Most of them died in Aleppo, where the Free Syrian Army reported the killing of General Issam Zahr Iddin, the local commander of the regime forces in the neighborhood of Salaheddin.
Guest, Male #1
Bashar, oh Bashar, we are coming to your house, Bashar.
Reporter, Male #2
Aleppines never imagined that the regime's planes would shell their densely populated neighborhood, destroying it and turning it to rubble.
Guest, Male #3
Signs of indiscriminate shelling by Assad's murderous gangs.
Reporter, Male #2
After it ran out of ammunition following fierce clashes with al-Assad's brigades, the Free Syrian Army carried out a tactical withdrawal from the neighborhood of Salaheddin. It was then redeployed to attack government forces. Meanwhile, al-Assad's brigades used their artillery and planes to shell the neighborhoods of al-Safour, Saif al-Dawla, al-Shaar, Haidariya, and Masaken Hanano.
Reporter, Male #2
The Reuters news agency published photos of the massive destruction caused by MiG fighter jets in Tal-Rifaat in the countryside of Aleppo that led to the killing and injury of dozens of people. Some areas of the capital sustained heavy indiscriminate shelling, particularly the neighborhoods of al-Kadam and al-Asali.
Reporter, Male #2
In Homs, smoke and flames could be seen rising from burning homes in al-Sultaniya and Jouret al-Shayyah, the result of the violent shelling. Clashes between the Free Syrian Army and Assad's brigades continued in Idlib, Deir az-Zour, and Daraa, where the rebels were able to cut off the army's supply routes. Meanwhile, the opposition is organizing its supporters to participate in protests on Friday under the slogan, "Arm us with anti-aircraft weapons".
Presenter, Male #4
In Tehran, Iran's foreign minister, Ali Akbar Salehi, said at the opening of a "consultative" conference on Syria that the only path to reconciliation in Syria passes through comprehensive dialogue between the government and the opposition. He also reiterated his country's objection to any foreign or military intervention in Syria.
Presenter, Female #1
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad assigned Health Minister Wael Nader al-Halki as the new prime minister. He is replacing Riad Hjab, who announced his defection last Monday and left the Syrian territories. Al-Halki hails from the Daraa region, known as the birthplace of the Syrian revolution. He will replace Omar Ghalawanji, who was tasked with running the government hours after Hijab's defection.
Kurdistan Region creates negotiations council to resolve Baghdad disputes
Al Jazeera, Qatar
Presenter, Female #1
In the northern Iraqi region of Erbil, Kurdish parties are continuing to hold marathon sessions with the aim of forming a supreme council to negotiate and resolve all outstanding issues between the Kurdistan Region and Baghdad.
Presenter, Male #1
The supreme council includes political blocs representing the authorities, the opposition, and civil society organizations.
Reporter, Male #2
It's rare for the opposition to agree with the authorities in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region. However, this agreement comes after all sides realized the dangerous nature of the relationship between Baghdad and Erbil. Under the terms of the agreement, a supreme council will be formed to oversee the negotiation and monitor its results with regard to all outstanding issues, which the Kurdish side says are essential to preserving the interests of the region.
Guest, Male #3 (Karud Mohammed, Head of Change Bloc in Kurdistan Parliament)
Any decision taken by this council will be national, which all parties agree on. The parliament will remain a reference point, which will help us adopt resolutions that will serve the people's interests.
Reporter, Male #2
The formation of this council will likely spare the regional authority from taking the blame over the failure to reach a resolution with regard to its outstanding issues with Baghdad.
Guest, Male #4 (Dr. Mohammed Ihsan, Kurdistan Regional Government's Envoy to Baghdad)
This will clearly help unify the positions of all sides of the political equation in Kurdistan. With this, no groups will be singled out, or held entirely responsible for the implications and disagreements between Erbil and Baghdad.
Reporter, Male #2
Observers believe that the formation of this council will not serve as a magic wand to resolve the issues between Baghdad and Erbil unless both sides show a strong will to end their dispute.
Guest, Male #5 (Dr. Shirzad al-Najar, Professor of International Law, Salaheddin University)
The important question is: Does the central government have a sincere intention to resolve these problems? And if not, will it continue to fuel these problems, under the pretext that one crisis leads to another, and one problem leads to another? And, in the end, they will say they have no solutions.
Reporter, Male #2
The Iraqi Kurdistan Region's formation of a council to negotiate with Baghdad, with the participation of the opposition, is a move intended to unify the positions of the Kurdish political parties in a bid to deal with, or perhaps resolve, all outstanding issues with Baghdad. Ahmed al-Zawouti, Al Jazeera, Erbil.
Shin Bet captures suspects in 2000 lynching of IDF reservists
IBA, Israel
The Shin Bet security service and the Judea and Samaria district police announced the arrest of two men who reportedly confessed to having taken part in the brutal October 2000 lynching of two IDF reservists, Yossi Avrahami and Vadim Nurzhitz, in Ramallah. The arrests came after Hamas operatives in Ramallah and the Binyamin region were uncovered. Two other Hamas operatives are also in custody.
Ehud Barak: US intelligence on Iran nuclear program 'closer to Israel's appraisal than ever'
IBA, Israel
Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak says the latest US intelligence assessment regarding Iran's nuclear program is closer to Israel's appraisal than ever before. In addition, given the possibility of an Israeli military strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, Saudi Arabia has reportedly warned that it would shoot down any Israeli warplanes that penetrate its airspace.
Drive-by shooting takes Egyptian police station in northern Sinai by surprise
IBA, Israel
Egyptian police clashed with armed men in the city of el-Arish in the northern Sinai after authorities stepped up efforts to crush a surge in Islamist militants in the region. Reports say that Egyptian officers were taken by surprise when gunmen fired at their police station from a moving vehicle. These developments come after President Mohamed Morsi appointed a new national intelligence chief following a round of firings in the aftermath of the Egyptian border guard attack that killed 16 earlier this week.
Birzeit University students start hunger strike to protest tuition hike
Palestine TV, Ramallah
Presenter, Male #1
The student union at Birzeit University announced the start of an open-ended hunger strike following the university's decision to raise the academic tuition and fees.
Reporter, Male #2
One hundred ten days have passed, and the doors of Birzeit University remain closed to its students. This is the result of the university's decision to raise tuition and fees. Students say they will have to incur heavy costs. In addition, the university announced the cancellation of the summer session.
Guest, Male #3 (Kamal Assaf, President of Birzeit University Student Union)
The interests and rights of the students must be taken into consideration. The irresponsible decision to cancel the summer session reflects a mindset that is unaware of the interests of the students, and the university. This arbitrary decision poses dangers to the university because it raises the university's financial burden, and in turn will intensify the crisis.
Reporter, Male #2
Many meetings and consultations were held between the university's administration and the student union, but they did not lead to a positive outcome for the next academic year.
Guest, Male #4
We lost the hope that Birzeit University really carries a nationalist educational message. Birzeit is a charitable organization with a nationalist message, so it must commit to its moral obligation to the students. This moral obligation does not allow it to obstruct this prestigious institution.
Reporter, Male #2
To protest the university's decision, the student union and the student movement announced, during a press conference held at the entrance of the university, a series of escalating steps, most notably the start of an open-ended hunger strike until the tuition hike is canceled.
Guest, Male #3
After using all available means to pressure the university's administration to cancel its irresponsible decision to increase the tuition, and to confirm our absolute alignment with the poor classes, and because of our faith in the principle that education is a right to all, we are announcing that some of the protestors will begin an open-ended hunger strike. And we will not retreat until our legitimate rights are fulfilled.
Reporter, Male #2
Amid the financial crisis endured by the national authority, and the Ministry of Education's inability to fulfill its monitory obligations to the universities, students are left with a burden they had no responsibility for. Khaled Motawea, Palestine TV.

"Older hotel aging well"
This hotel is so different from the other modern ones in the area. Room held two queen beds, had ceilings that must have been at least 12 feet high, and was huge. Carpeting in my room was just about ready for replacement, but the room was otherwise well maintained. If you like bright and new and shiny, this is not the place for you. If you like older […] and charming and still pretty well maintained, this is. Baca selengkapnyaUlasan otentik tamu Hotels.com

We were only in Philly for one day, so I can't be too critical. The only bad thing I can say is that it's hard to find. It was my first time in Philadelphia, and the downtown driving is very confusing. Making a left turn is almost impossible (if you've been there, you know what I mean). We drove by the hotel three times before we actually saw it (the […] sign is about 12" x 12"). Once we got there though, everything was fine. Friendly staff, and nice room.

You must stay here! The rooms are spacious and clean and the staff were very nice and helpful. I think this is the first hotel I stayed at where there was ample water pressure in the shower. The only con I would have is that the plush beds may be hard to get into if you're older or have arthritic problems.

It was also pouring rain off and on the whole time. During a lull we decided to take a walk and was going to buy a cheap umbrella somewhere, however before we could do that another downpour came. We were standing on the corner waiting for the signal to cross getting absolutely soaked when a gentleman stopped his car, rolled his window down and handed us an umbrella!

The hotel was very nice! My only complaint is that the pillows were to big, there were 3 on each bed and all were the same thickness.

The staff was very courteous […] and friendly. The food court was not open early enough and closed way to early but that just gave me a reason to walk around the neighborhood in search of food.

I actually have two.
All it takes is one Fez-wearing sage like Andre Leon Talley and I'm standing in a department store trying to convince all of my friends that no, leather pasties ARE TOTALLY OF THE MOMENT AND APPROPRIATE FOR WORK.
When I was a kid watching the Jetsons, I thought that the early 2000's would come complete with flying cars. Instead, we got a bunch of faddish celeb-driven trends that don't exactly hold up in the cold light of early 2013.
Big purses exist because we lead big lives, rife with potential for disaster. I want to face that life prepared.

The key is to this is thoughtful branding. And Ryan Gosling's face.
plus sizes
It's the impossibly chic, ultra-wearable, jealousy-inducing, seriously major new item for fall that you don't already have -- and if you do, I'm seriously impressed. Star Wars fans to the front of the line.
Stop living in fear, people.
Sure, you can put a bird on it, but why limit yourself to winged creatures?
Ikat prints are going to be EVERYWHERE this fall.
These Theyskens' Theory bell-bottoms are perfect for now and also later and probably forever.

I consider myself to be a reasonably well-educated person. I was salutatorian of my high school graduating class. I graduated with honors from a prestigious liberal arts college and continued on for an advanced degree. For more than 30 years I taught high school English.
But as I look back on more than 70 years of learning, I realize just how much I dont know or havent mastered. For example, I remember a bit about ancient history, but I never have found out the name of one of the bravest of the ancients. Some time in the misty past, some man or woman saw an oyster, mumbled Yum, that looks good, and proceeded to eat it without realizing what was being passed along to countless future generations. I wish my history books would tell me the name of this heroic figure, whose well-deserved fame should be part of the lore.
On the other hand, I have no interest in identifying the figure from the past who first propagated broccoli for human consumption.
However, ancient history is not the only area where my education short-changed me. I never took a course in economics. I was a child of the Great Depression, and I suspect that many like me developed a mistrust of the world of money.
Unfortunately, very early I took an interest in cars. I pleaded with my parents to buy me one of the little pedal-driven sidewalk cars. When I had grown a bit, statistics had become a great interest. I spent many hours sitting on the curb of busy Division Street in Spokane, tablet and pencil in hand. I kept a record of how many cars of each brand passed by me. Of course, there were the multitude of Fords, Chevies, and Plymouths. But there were also Packards, Studebakers, and Nashes, and also Marmons and Hupmobiles and Essexes, and many more. I wish I had kept my tally sheets. They might well be of historical interest.
World War II coincided with my high school years, and the familys 1932 Willys Overland went up on blocks in our garage because of gas and tire rationing. And I never learned to drive until I came to Olympia at the age of 22. Now that I look back, the years that passed during my high school and college days I could have used to read and perhaps understand some of the basics of economics. I might have fulfilled my desire for a five-car garage complete with elevators. Bad decision, Jim.
So, my knowledge of ancient history is truly incomplete, and my knowledge of economics is almost non-existent. And thats not all. I can only rarely identify a flower or a tree because I am not conversant with botany. As far as anatomy is concerned, I can name certain bones in the human body because their names appear often in crossword puzzles.
Way back during my high school days, because it was expected of me, I took a class in what was then labeled physics. It should have been an easy-A course for me, and it was, for a time. But near the end of the course came the unit on electricity. For several weeks, I think, I truly understood nothing. Electricity came to mean to me a huge number of super-active insets that ran up and down wires that led from poles and then into households to make light bulbs and radios and kitchen ranges spring to life. Even today, that is the image that comes into my mind. My education has not enabled me to make simple repairs around the house. You can imagine, I think, how my lack of scientific knowledge is preventing me from understanding or using all the means of modern communication that my daughters and granddaughters have at hand in their world.

text: This actually seriously affected the biodiversity of Lake Erie, in a bad way. The run off of the fertilizer will forced the lake to undergo a process called eutrophication. During eutrophication the lake will undergo an algae bloom due to the increased nitrates in the water from the fertilizer runoff of local farms. The algae will reproduce rapidly and eventually die off. It will then sink to the bottom and be decomposed. As decomposition takes place the decomposers in the lake will use up all of the dissolved oxygen to aid in respiration and decomposition. The amount of dissolved oxygen in the water will rapidly decrease eventually reaching a state of hypoxia (when the dissolved oxygen level of water is less the 4 parts per million.) As a result there is not enough oxygen in the water to sustain life for creatures fish and other organisms that use respiration as their key method of producing energy.

It will be Loyola's hardest battle of the year, without doubt, and football such as the Pack hasn't shown in many, many, a game must be played if Santa Clara is to be defeated. Shaughnessy has tried hard for a winning combination this year, and has had his share of hard luck. In the Xavier game it appeared that the best working team had at last been discovered. The backs fought hard, but seemed LOYOLA CHAPTER IS FIRST ONE IN THE STATE OF LOUISIANA Blue Key Is National Honorary Activity Group Composed of Student Leaders TO INSTALL CHAPTER EARLY IN DECEMBER Membership Comprises 53 Universities Representing 33 States Blue Key, national honorary activity fraternity has authorized a chapter of the organization to be established at Loyola University, according to an announcement 'made yesterday by Temple Black, Editor-in-Chief of the Loyola Maroon. Loyola is singularly honored by the fact that the local chapter of the organization is the only one in the state of Louisiana, Black said. The authorization came from Major B. C. Riley, national president of the Fraternity at the University of Florida at the culmination of an extension correspondenceNIGHT SCHOOL CO-EDS BEGIN NEW SODALITY Spiritual Meetings Will Be Held Twice Each Month With Business Meeting After Gatherings A new sodality, known as the Ladies' Night School Sodality, has been formed at Loyola this year. Its purpose is to enable the Night School Students to enjoy the benefits of the sodality. The spiritual j meetings of the new organ will be held twice a month as in the other sodalities. The second and fourth Saturdays are the days set aside with a business meeting after the last Saturday. At the first business meeting of the new sodality the officers elected were: Miss Amalie Buchman, prefect; Mile Oddette Berehier, viceprefect; Miss Rita Carey, secretary, and Miss Catherine Kenny, treasurer. At the first meeting, also, it was decided that a lecture on Joan D'Arc would be given at the Ursaline Convent by the Misses Helen Cahill and Mignon Campar, and that the sodality should be represented at mass, each day during the month of November, in honor of the Poor Souls, by some one of its members. All feminine Night School students are invited to join this new sodality and help in advancing its principles. WOLVERINES TO MAKE FIRST BOW NOV. 25 I ! Co-Ed Campus Night Will Be Held in Gym Preceeding Santa Clara Game The Loyola Wolverines will I make their first appearance to the I students of the university, Wednesday, November 25, at 9 p. m., 1 in the gymnasium, when they present a hilarious spectacle, entitled "A Burlesque of College Life." The program is to follow the pep meeting and bonfire that are to be held in preparation for the game with Santa Clara University on ! the following day. Gudrun Hansen, general directress of the entertainment, has announced that games, in which the entire audience will participate, will be staged between the acts. While the exact nature of the presentation and of the games has not been disclosed, it is rumored that it will be in the nature of an amusing burlesque on the academic, social and athletic activities of college life. "Nothing in general and everything in particular," was the answer that Miss Hansen gave when asked to ex- I plain what the function would consist of. While she would not dis| close any of the particulars she was most emphatic hoping that all students would be present. Blue Key Will Bind Student Leaders Together in Qroup Founded At University Of Florida By Major B. C. Riley In 1924 The athletic authorities at the University of Florida had scheduled a game with Drake University, Des Moines, lowa, for Thanks- Riving, 1924. It was desired to attract a large number of friends for the occasion. The late President Murphree of the U. of Florida asked Major B. C. Riley, Dean of the General Extension Division, to co-ordinate all of the University activities in order to promote the approaching event. Major Riley suggested that the fathers of the students, as well as the alumni, should be encouraged to visit the University of Florida once a year and see its work and progress. Consequently, he designated Homecoming as Dad's Day, and the custom of asking dads to , be present at Homecoming has continued. In making preparations for the Drake game, Major Riley enlisted | ! the aid of a number of advanced students and this group functioned so well that he banded them together for the purpose of further aiding the University in such ways as might prove acceptable and helpful to the administration. It was soon discovered that the only time student leaders could meet was at luncheon or dinner. As a result, it was found that the group was unintentionally organized and functioning in University student life very much like Rotary and Kiwanis and others functioning in civic life. Membership was coveted because it stamped men as leaders, whose opinions were considered worthwhile and who could contribute suggestions for the improvement of student life and their institution.When Blue Key was established there was no thought of forming a national fraternity. However, the value of such an organization on the campus of every American college and university was soon Delta Theta Phi Begins Moot Court First In Series By Law Fraternity Will Be Presented Soon Delta Theta Phi Fraternity has created a new interest and activity among its members by the establishment of "The Delta Theta Phi Court," with jurisdiction over cases wholly within the fraternity. The first Moot case is one, involving Criminal Law, with Mr. Eugene Stanley occupying the bench as Judge, Mr. Robert Ainsworth as council for the defendent and Mr. Harvey Betz prosecuting the case. This is the first of a series of cases to be sponsored by Delta Theta Phi in its untiring efforts to create new activities among its members and with the aim of preparing its members to more ably argue their cases before the court of "Loyola University." Wealth Of Information To Be Found In Students, Library By Jimei Screen From a small study room in 1926 to a fully equipped library containing thousands of volumes in 1931. Such has been the history of Loyola's Student Library. Let us go back and review the growth of this up-to-date students quarry of information from the time it first originated. With the opening of the session of 1926-27 a room just to the left of the main entrance of Marquette building was set aside as a place where students in their off periods could make use of the valuable time they would otherwise lose. The study tables and a few hundred volumes bo r r o we d from Bobet Library were the only constituent of the "study room" as it was then called. So enthusiastic was the response of the students in taking advantage of the opportunity offered them that in the following session it was decided to convert the "study room" into a student library. Volumes of books were purchase and many others taken from Bobet Library, many subscriptions to reference books which are pub; lished yearly were added, such as, ! the Catholic and the British Encyclopedias and the Lincoln and the Volume Library reference books. For a year or two the library increased its size slowly yet steadily. Dining the past year, however, the number of additions to the volumes already collected reached its peak. Nearly a thousand volumes of books on economics, literature, drama, fiction, law, philosophy and education were annexed. A student may now enter the library looking for information and be assured that he or she will not leave the room until knowledge which is Bought has been obtained. An interesting feature consists in the fact that Loyola is a member of the Catholic Book a Month Club and each month receives the YEAR BOOK TO OFFER CASH TO STAR SALESMAN Check for 25 Dollars will be Presented for First 100 Dollars of Ads The most astounding offer ever made to students of Loyola University was voiced last Wednesday night by Edward Lucas, editor of the 1932 "Wolf", when he said that he would present a check for twenty-five dollars to the first student to sell one hundred dollars worth of advertising in the year book this year. "This proposition is open to any student in the school and I will i personally present the check to j the winner on Christmas Eve," Lucas said. It is the first time in the history of the school such a proposition has been made to Loyola men and anyone desiring to make the twenty five bucks for Christmas will pIMU see Lucas at once for his i instructions. Contract blanks will be furnished and all the new salesmen will start out Friday evening. This i offer is open to all students in both the day and night classes. The members of the business staff will also be eligible but they will start from scratch with the new men. Advertising that these men have already sold will not be taken into consideration. The deadline for \ the ads will be December 20. FROSH-SOPHS VIE FOR HONORS IN CLASS RUSH Council Sets December 7 As Day For Class Battle For Hausman Trophy On December 7, a Class Rush will be inaugurated at Loyola as an annual event in the Sophomore-Freshmen competition for the Hausman Trophy. The Student Council laid final ; plans and rules for the contest at a recent meeting. It was decided to allow all the Sophomores and all the Freshmen to participate. This means that the Sophomore class can use the Freshmen Dents and the Junior Pharmacists and all others who are Sophomores on the Campus. The Frosh can avail themselves of all new-comers. The object of the Rush will be to get a flag, which will be raised on the flag-pole about fifteen feet off the ground. The two classes will start on either side of the track about halt" way from the gym. Several referees will mingle in the melee tb prevent unnecessary roughness, outright slugging, etc. , The combat should be confined to wrestling and joustiing as much as possible and above all, no weapons will be allowed. When any referee blows his whistle, all contestants will immediately stop in the exact positions in which they are, until the penalized participant is ejected and .the signal is given to resume the activities.

Hey guys, usually I'm around here posting up info, trying to help others on the forum, or asking questions for my own use. But today I need a little guidance on helping my brother put on some mass. He plays football and basketball, is pretty damn skinny, but also quite strong (power cleaned 250 his sophomore year of high school weighing around 180). I guarentee he can't do that now though, because he simply doesn't eat enough. And what he does eat is the typical teenager chips, poptarts, mini muffin and taco bell diet. He is heading into his senior year and keeps asking me how to get bigger without getting fat (ab obsession because he used to be pretty overweight when he was younger).
Here's the major issue: there is no way in hell I can get him to track his intake. I am looking for just a general guideline to give him that could help him bulk up.
My current plan: giving him a list of foods he should eat for breakfast with a couple different options. Something like:
Breakfastoptarts and a protein shake with milk, bowl of whatever ****ty cereal he eats and a protein shake with milk, maybe some proatmeal if I can get him to make it.
Lunch: whatever his cafateria is serving (this is really a free for all, who knows).
Directly post workout: protein shake
Dinner: two plates of whatever mom is cooking up for him. + an extra 2 servings of the meat (this will most likely be his "post workout" meal)
Now the issue is, my guess is that is nowhere near enough food for him to bulk with the amount of activity hell be doing for football training. Do any of you guys have experience that could help me out? And before you tell me too many protein shakes, I KNOW, but its the only way I can get the kid to take in even close to enough protein.
My apologies for the lengthy post
