Thomas Betteridge
Thomas More is a complex and controversial figure who has been regarded as both saint and persecutor, leading humanist and a representative of late medieval culture. His religious writings, with their stark and at times violent attacks on what More regarded as heresy, have been hotly debated. In Writing Faith and Telling Tales, Thomas Betteridge sets More's writings in a broad cultural and chronological context, compares them to important works of late fourteenth- and fifteenth-century vernacular theology, and makes a compelling argument for the revision of existing histories of Thomas More and his legacy.
Betteridge focuses on four areas of More's writings: politics, philosophy, theology, and devotion. He examines More's History of King Richard III as a work of both history and political theory. He discusses Utopia and the ways in which its treatment of reason reflects More's Christian humanism. By exploring three of More's lesser known works, The Supplication of Souls, The Confutation, and The Apology, Betteridge demonstrates that More positioned his understanding of heresy within and against a long tradition of English anti-heretical writing, as represented in the works of Hoccleve, Lydgate, and Love. Finally, Betteridge focuses on two key concepts for understanding More's late devotional works: prayer and the book of Christ. In both cases, Betteridge claims, More seeks to develop a distinctive position that combines late medieval devotionalism with an Augustinian emphasis on the ethics of writing and reading. Writing Faith and Telling Tales poses important questions concerning periodization and confessionalization and will influence future work on the English Reformation and humanist writing in England.
"Writing Faith and Telling Tales is an exciting study poised to resituate Thomas More as a late medieval thinker, revealing his as a corpus of work at odds not only with emergent Protestant writing and practices but with the confessional logic of the Reformation in general. Thomas Betteridge delivers a vivid and compelling picture of Thomas More, a picture that will act as a point of departure for future conversations on this interesting and important author. In addition, this study will serve as an influential survey of early Tudor genres and authors." — Russ Leo, Princeton University
"Writing Faith and Telling Tales challenges us to imagine a More for whom Chaucer, Langland, medieval tracts, and early drama were as important intellectual and spiritual landmarks as Erasmus and Martin Luther. Betteridge immerses himself in those texts and shares them with us, suggesting with insight, wit, and authority why we cannot understand More without them. The result is a quiet revolution, bringing nuance and subtlety to debates often polarised between advocates of a saintly or a fanatical, a 'medieval' or a 'modern,' More. Betteridge's More is no man for all seasons, but he shows emphatically why readers of all faiths and none in every era have found him so compelling." — Greg Walker, Regius Professor of Rhetoric and English Literature, University of Edinburgh
"A profound and distinguished contribution to Thomas More studies. Betteridge challenges us to put aside the simplistic lenses through which his subject's life and writings are often viewed, and to look with fresh eyes at an individual whose evident complexity points not to psychological disarray, but rather to the vibrant and variegated character of the late medieval literary and religious cultures with which he was so fully engaged." — Peter Marshall, University of Warwick
272 pages
"In scarcely two hundred pages, Betteridge attempts to weave together several generations of literature, exploring the English writings of Sir Thomas More (as well as the Latin Utopia) through comparison and contrast with over a dozen vernacular authors from the previous two centuries, including Chaucer, Langland, and Skelton. . . . Students of the English authors discussed here will take pleasure in the juxtaposition of familiar texts, while those who have known More through his engagement with Renaissance humanism will find that it enriches and deepens their understanding of the influences behind his work." — The Medieval Review
"Thomas Betteridge critiques previous assessments of Sir Thomas More . . . as oversimplifying the complexity of More's medieval heritage. . . . Betteridge reads primary texts closely, finding nuanced relationships between them and More's work and his complex literary persona." — Choice
"Presenting numerous examples of More's own writings on philosophy, politics, theology, and the practices of affective faith, Betteridge places them alongside theological and literary texts, mostly in the vernacular English, from the late fourteenth and fifteenth centuries to demonstrate their cultural and religious continuity with those medieval works . . . Writing Faith and Telling Tales will be of interest to undergraduate and graduate university libraries, especially those concentrating on late medieval and early Renaissance English literature, and on sixteenth-century English political and ecclesial history." — Catholic Library World
"What Betteridge has given us is something remarkably different, something both analytical and speculative that can be thoughtful, inquiring, and at times provocative. It is nothing short of an anatomy of More's mind that manages to incorporate both the spiritual and the secular as it reaches toward an inclusive poetics of acculturated faith." — Renaissance Quarterly
"When Betteridge is at his best, his parallels are striking, and readers will be glad to have his suggestive run at More's telling tales and striking arguments against the early English evangelicals . . . . Betteridge's careful handling of More's polemic works will be especially appreciated." — The Catholic Historical Review
"This book covers a vast expanse of English vernacular writing, comparing More to Chaucer and Lydgate, to anti-Lollard tracts and plays such as Everyman, N-Town Play, and the Digby Mary Magdalene, devotional literature . . . . Writing Faith is a valuable addition to scholarship on More, written from a perspective that is rare in recent studies of his work." — SHARP News
"In this fresh, thoughtful, and engaging study, Thomas Betteridge aims to free Thomas More from a weight of scholarship which has tended either to condemn him as a persecutor of heretics or revere him as a saint, and which has judged the significance of his literary output to be its contradictory position somewhere between the binary poles of the 'medieval' and the 'modern' . . . Writing Faith and Telling Tales is an important and compelling book that not only enhances our understanding of More as an intellectual and writer but of the whole practice and meaning of writing, and not just in late medieval England." — English Historical Review
"The achievements of Writing Faith are considerable. Betteridge has provided a much-needed complement to studies of More that emphasize the Continental aspects of his humanism, and he has also presented us with a version of More as a truly Literary writer, one whose investment in so many different genres derives equally from his varied philosophical commitments and from his abiding interest in storytelling."— Renaissance and Reformation
"Thomas Betteridge's desire to break down these [humanist writer, Lord Chancellor, and saintly martyr] divides in Writing Faith and Telling Tales is to be fulsomely lauded. . . His analysis of More often reveals intriguing insights, especially as to More's view of the relationship between truth and fiction." — Modern Philology
"Betteridge is largely successful in presenting an image of More that has taken into account the various intellectual influences in his life and appropriately fitting together the medieval and the humanist elements of More's life and work." — Medievalia et Humanistica

Unparalleled Views of Niagara Falls at Four-Star Marriott
Oscar Wilde once described Niagara Falls as "simply a vast amount of water going the wrong way over some unnecessary rocks." But the falls' 12 million annual visitors tend to have a different reaction as they witness the thousands of gallons of water surging over the brink. If you really want to prove the cranky Irish playwright wrong, the four-star Marriott Niagara Falls Fallsview Hotel & Spa may have the ideal vantage point—the Travel Channel says it's "the closest hotel to the action and promises the best views." This deal includes accommodations at the hotel as well as a breakfast for two, a dining credit at the onsite Terrapin Grille, a dining credit at the neighboring Milestones Grill + Bar across the street, and a credit toward services at the onsite Serenity Spa.
In falls-view guest rooms, you'll find prime views of the Horseshoe, American, and Bridal Veil falls. After 7 p.m., colorful lights illuminate the water, casting a breathtaking glow on their heavy mist. River-view and falls-view rooms each contain two queen beds and a TV with pay-per-view movies. WiFi is available for an additional daily fee.
At the hotel's mezzanine level, the Terrapin Grille's floor-to-ceiling windows offer a close-up look. The restaurant serves a hearty buffet of waffles, fresh fruit, and omelets for breakfast, then cooks up steaks and seafood and pours local wines for dinner.
Niagara Falls, Ontario: Panoramic Views of the Falls near Vegas-Style Casinos and Water Parks
At Niagara Falls—considered by many to be one of the world's seven natural wonders—water thunders downward from a height of nearly 200 feet, crashing onto craggy boulders below. The falls straddle the border between Canada and the United States, with segments located in both New York and Ontario, but the Canadian side of the Niagara River is universally hailed as the finest vantage point to take in all three of Niagara Falls' photogenic brinks: American, Bridal Veil, and Horseshoe Falls.
The iconic Maid of the Mist has ferried raincoat-clad passengers around the base of the falls since 1846. The tours run from April through October, depending on the river's ice conditions. Year-round, Journey Behind the Falls grants a glimpse behind the curtain of Horseshoe Falls—board an elevator that descends 150 feet into the bedrock, then stand at an observation deck steps away from the cascading water.
A 10-minute walk from the falls, you'll see the neon glow of the Clifton Hill neighborhood. Its Fallsview Boulevard has plenty of Vegas-style kitsch, including glitzy casinos, indoor water parks, restaurants, and soggy Elvis impersonators.

The Lumia 800 hasn't wasted any time on assaulting the UK mobile market, with a span of mere hours between CEO Elop's unveiling of the handset during Nokia World and adverts making their primetime debut during last night's Coronation Street.
Check out the Lumia 800's TV spot for yourself below
Well, the first mobile deals weren't far behind, with Phones4U offering the Mango-powered device for free from just £26 per month on a two-year contract.
Bundling in 400 minutes, 3,000 texts and 250MB of data into the bargain, the Lumia 800's price point healthily undercuts the iPhone 4S, pitching the flagship Nokia phone firmly against popular Android competition like the Samsung Galaxy S II and HTC's Sensation range.
With the ads confirming a November 16th release for the Lumia 800 in the UK, it looks to be a contentious fourth quarter as the major manufacturers chuck their hats into the ring for a smartphone battle royale.
With a premium handset and an equally pricey advertising push, Nokia looks to be coming out swinging with their latest. But whether it will convince consumers to opt for Windows over the competition remains to be seen.

We got to spend a gorgeous afternoon in York, Maine. While there we had to take a visit to the always stunning Nubble Lighthouse. I believe that it's true name is Cape Neddick Lighthouse but I've most commonly heard to it being referred to as Nubble Lighthouse.
The views of the lighthouse and the ocean are amazing. It's a must see for those that have never been.

OSHA regulates aspects of the general industry workplace, such as the storage and handling of fuels and gas in vehicles, the proper display of Department of Transportation labels and emergency response procedures. Industrial work sites must use specific vehicles in areas where materials such as hexamine or aluminum dust are present in combustible levels.
OSHA requires employers to train and educate workers on the dangers of hazardous chemicals and toxic materials in the workplace and ensure that employees know how to handle the substances and protect themselves from exposure. The agency defines air-quality standards in the workplace and sets limits on allowable concentrations of airborne hazardous chemicals. These permissible exposure limits vary according to the setting, such as general industry, shipyards and construction. The regulations regarding airborne hazardous substances are not comprehensive, and some require updating. OSHA requires that employers supply respirators to employees at no cost when mechanical solutions for contaminated air are not in place.Learn more about Law

New Delhi: Thousands of autorickshaws in the capital will go off the roads Thursday and Friday to press for the demand that the government pay for global positioning systems (GPS) they have to install.
Autorickshaw trade unions said they were not opposed to the GPS per se but they wanted the Delhi administration to bear the cost of installation -- and maintenance.
With the government not relenting, some 55,000 autorickshaws will take part in the two-day strike, said Suresh Sharma, president of the Rashtravadi Janata Tipahiya Chalak Mahasangh.
The strike was supposed to begin Wednesday.
"We were supposed to go on strike from Wednesday but only two to three unions were ready. So we chose to start the strike from Thursday," Sharma told reporters.
He said Thursday would not see "even a single auto on the streets"
"We have no problems with the GPS installation. Our demand is that we should not be paying the annual charges of Rs.15,000 for the installation. The government should bear this cost," said Sharma.
The government wants autorickshaws to be fitted with GPS to enable a two-way communication system that will help check speeding, route deviation and ensure commuter safety.
Despite the many accusations hurled at their drivers, autorickshaws form a key lifeline of the capital`s transport system.

My favorite technique with unbound forms is to use stored procedures to retrieve, insert, update, and delete data. Whereas the first two techniques covered in this chapter include the SQL statements required to manipulate the data, the code in this section simply executes stored procedures that retrieve, insert, update, and delete the data. The process of using stored procedures has the following benefits:
Stored procedures help you to separate the client application from the structure of the database.
Stored procedures help you to simplify client coding.
Stored procedures process at the server (reducing required bandwidth).
Stored procedures allow you to create reusable code.
Stored procedures allow you to perform error handling at the server.
Stored procedures facilitate the security of data.
Because stored procedures are precompiled, they execute more quickly.
Stored procedures improve the stability of the application.
Stored procedures reduce network locking.
When you build a stored procedure, a query plan is created. This query plan contains the most efficient method of executing the stored procedure given available indexes and so on.

morial Museum, and the Huntington Art Gallery have cooperated in
other projects of researching and publishing material on art and artists
in Texas. It is true that Texas, as a frontier state, attracted few trained
artists during the nineteenth century. Through such cooperative ef-
forts as this book, however, the work of those few artists has been ably
and handsomely documented.

Growing Old at Willie Nelson's Picnic and Other Sketches of Life in

Tex.: Texas A8cM University Press, 1983. Pp. 277. Acknowledg-
ments, introduction, photographs. $18.50, cloth; $10.95, paper.)
Any reader will find in this diverse collection a number of pieces
that will prove of interest. The twenty selections are divided into
seven categories: Legacies, Borderlines (referring specifically to the
border with Mexico), Livestock, Ceremonies, Diversions, Art, and
The list of authors gives some further indication of content. Alpha-
betically, it includes Clancy Carlile, Gary Cartwright, John Davidson,
William Eastlake, Earle R. Forrest, Arrell Morgan Gibson, John
Graves, Larry L. King, D. H. Lawrence, William C. Martin, Joseph G.
McCoy, Larry McMurtry, Tom Miller, N. Scott Momaday, Kirk Pur-
cell, Al Reinert, Trent Elwood Sanford, Leslie Marmon Silko, Frank
Waters, and Lawrence Wharton. Finally, a sentence in the dust jacket
seeks to wrap up description of the content: "The common thread of
all the sketches is the land and its unique blend of three cultures-In-
dian, Spanish, and Anglo .. ."
Unfortunately, the book inevitably suffers from the dangers in-
herent in a production of this type. Life in the expansive Southwest
covers a broad range indeed, and this collection focuses on relatively
few scenes: Texas football, a bit overdone by now; rodeos; architecture
and artistic expression in Taos; Willie Nelson's picnic, including some
incisive and humorous observations of those in attendance (in the title
piece, by William C. Martin); and a scattering of others.
There is nothing focusing on oil, or southwestern weather, or many
other subjects of great regional importance. No one with a name of
Spanish derivation writes on Spanish culture. An attempt at compre-
hensiveness surely would have resulted in a large-maybe multi-
volume-production, but the book reviewed here needs emphasis on

If you haven't noticed then pay attention - it's Mother's Day next weekend. If you're still in need of gift ideas then these little luxuries may give you a quick and easy way of putting a smile on Mum's face and a lovely roast in your belly. First up is this really cute bath set from one of my fave brands, Aromatherapy Associates. You get three little pots of oil (relax, revive and de-stress) all wrapped up in this cute box which even includes a little bow. For £12.00 you can't go wrong either because it's an absolute bargain... with each bottle giving you three baths that'll keep her going until at least next birthday.
I love Connock London, it's a really sweet and luxurious brand which pays as much detail to the packaging as it does to what's inside. This beautiful body lotion smells phenomenal and you can really sense the shea butter, macademia oil and hints of spices coming through. It absorbs quickly and is super light so it moisturises the skin without leaving build-up or residue. Mum will be thankful for this too because at £32.70 you're not only giving her smooth legs, but a beautiful decoration for her dressing table.
These beautiful little packages from Rose & Co may look good enough to eat, but the cupcakes are actually for sprucing up and bathing. They smell sooooo good you may actually feel like you need to eat a cupcake after using them, but they make your bath a real luxurious experience. Starting from £3.50 for individual cakes you can customise the gift you give depending on how big a sweet tooth Mum has. Pop down to The Apothecary in House of Fraser and check them out for yourself.
Finally we've got a specially designed gift for Mums across the globe from skincare specialist Liz Earle. I'm a huge ambassador of her range so what better gift to give than the gift of fabulous skin? This set contains the essentials to get skin looking tip top and includes a body cream, face cream, superskin concentrate and a trial of the new superskin eye and lip treatment, all packaged in a cute pillow case for only £30.00. If you're feeling extra generous you could always buy your Mum a year's supply of Cleanse & Polish which is delivered direct to your door - if you've got £159.00 and are feeling super generous that is!

Co-Curricular Transcript
Co-Curricular Transcript
What is a Co-Curricular Transcript (CCT)?
A Co-Curricular Transcript is an official record of your co-curricular activities (clubs, organizations, activities), awards, accomplishments, and honors received during your time at SUNY Delhi.
What is a Co-Curricular Transcript used for?
As an official college document, the CCT can be used to support your search for summer employment, internships, graduate school, or a job after you graduate. The CCT is also required for many scholarships and awards SUNY Delhi offers its students. Official copies of the CCT may accompany your resume or scholarship application, employment, college transfer or graduate school application. In a recent survey, 71% of employers preferred job applicants to include a co-curricular transcript.
How do I start a CCT?
Each semester several workshops are offered to help you start your CCT. For those who intend to submit for multiple semesters already passed, it may be helpful to make up a chart listing both the fall term and spring term for each academic year. For example, if you started college in the academic year Fall 2013, you would start your chart with Fall 2013 to Spring 2014, then Fall 2014 to Spring 2015 and so on. Complete your chart by listing the items you want to show up on your final CCT under the fall and/or spring terms. Continue reading information below to complete the official CCT Form or bring your chart with you to one of our workshops.
Follow these instructions to complete the form:
- To properly complete a Co-Curricular Transcript Entry/Validation Form, begin by completing
the top of the form. Include your full name, SUNY Delhi 800 number, SUNY Delhi email
address, and phone number.
- To complete the date, circle the semester that you are indicating, and add the year
number. Example: spring 2015 = circle "SP" and write in "15."
- Finally, clearly print the advisor's full name, and have she/he sign the form.

They have beaten both earlier in district play, but you never know; that is why you play the games. The Eagles finally got some breaks in baseball.

1. Sleep-In Rollers
My hair seems to always take the longest amount of time, especially since I've invested in hair extensions which simply don't enable quick styling. However, if you prepare the night before by washing and semi-drying hair then you can save serious time the following morning. Sleep-in rollers are a fab invention, helping to create great curls and waves (as well as volume at the root) while you sleep; rollers help you to awake with hair that just needs a bit of pinning, hairspray or combing into place - rather than a full-on styling session that will leave you with mismatched shoes.
2. Overnight Treatments
There's nothing worse than waking up looking like death and attempting to pile on the slap to cover a bad nights kip. Overnight treatments, masques and creams can help inject goodness into your skin while you sleep, leaving you with fresh and plumped skin the morning after. I'm a huge fan of MeruMaya, Philosophy and Origins before I slip under the duvet, as they help my complexion to look radiant and wide awake - minimising the need for piles of makeup and an hour in-front of the mirror in an attempt to correct imperfections and sallow skin.
3. Double-Up In The Shower
While your conditioner is doing its thing, make the most of the dead time in the shower and get to work on other elements of your routine. I always brush my teeth in the shower to make sure I can step out and get on with getting dressed, as well as using the time my treatments are getting to work to buff my limbs or shave my bits n bobs. If you stop standing under the running water wondering how you're going to get through the day ahead, you'll be amazed at how quickly you can get in and out of the bathroom.
4. Plait It Up
One of my current favourite time-saving hair styles is a side plait. Messily taking three sections and wrapping them around eachother, pulling out the bulk to create volume and movement, and pinning a few sections around the side is a super quick way to create on-trend hair that looks super complex. You can even rough-dry hair and style it while still damp, creating ace waves that will look beachy cool when you release the plait later in the day. It takes two ticks and always makes a statement.
5. Spray & Go
Vaseline Spray & Go moisturisers have completely revolutionised my routine, enabling me to moisturise my limbs every morning without battling with getting tights on over the top. A quick spritz leaves a super lightweight cream on the surface of skin, which can be massaged in within seconds to leave limbs protected against the winter elements. It saves time but doesn't compromoise on the important elements of your routine.
6. Skincare & Makeup In One
Opting for multi-functional products that offer skincare and makeup benefits in one formula will save time while looking after your skin. BB Creams are a great way of injecting moisture and offering radiance, while simultaneously protecting from UV rays and providing great coverage. There's no need to layer up with three different serums, moisturisers and creams if you're using fabulous makeup products that do all the hard work for you - Clarins, Dr Jart and Benefit have some great bases that will tick off many boxes every single day.
7. Power Lips
If you're struggling to put together an outfit or don't have time to perfect that slick of liner, a powerful and bold lip is all you need to ensure you look 'done'. A bright red or berry shade of lipstick can help create effortless glamour and bring together an outfit, even when you're only wearing a t-shirt dress. Keep the rest of your look minimal for maximum impact... Plus you can apply this finishing touch on the bus to save even more time!
8. Working Spray
If yesterday's hair is looking a little lacklustre, a working spray is a great way to reignite a style or add effortless volume. My personal favourite is from Show Beauty, offering a great alternative to heavy sprays and helping to boost my style with ease. A short burst all over the hair helps to boost curls and shapes that were created the day before, as well as helping to add a touch of lift to the root. It takes two ticks and really makes a big difference without weighing hair down.
9. Accessorise
Like a great lipstick, a bold accessory or statement necklace can instantly update an outfit and make it look like you spent three hours getting ready. If in doubt, chuck on the plainest thing you've got and pick out the blingiest pieces of swag to accessorise with... Making something shiny and fancy the focal point of your outfit will ensure people forget about your messy barnet or chipped nail varnish.
10. Chuck It In Your Bag
Rather than rushing your routine or attempting to finish off your lipstick while tying your laces, chuck everything you haven't managed to apply or accessorise with into your bag - and do it on the go. I can't tell you how many times I've applied mascara on the train, added bracelets and sorted out my rings. There's often dead time while you're on public transport, so make the most of it and stop panicking... As long as you get off the other end looking perfect, nobody will never know you overslept.
Do you always struggle in the mornings? Do you have any top tips for saving time but still ensuring you look fabulous?

Nothing new about 'drips' in nail art, but I had never done a drip mani before, and since I'm on a holo kick right now, this is what I came up with.
|holo drips in direct sun
To achieve this look I started with 2 coats of I Love Nail Polish Bottle Service. I really like this shade, you don't see 'warm' silvers too often, but this has an almost imperceptible rose-gold glow from within.

I considered adding more shading to make it all appear more 3D, but opted out - I find holographic polish obscures details, but maybe next time I try a drip mani I'll use cremes.

I could easily mistake a photo of Sherman Fairchild in the late 1950s for a photo of Arnold Beckman in the same decade. So the photo here is one from the 1930s, which doesn't remind me of Fairchild. Unfairly, I associate the same traits to both men - men with money and numerous businesses who happened to be associated with the origins of Silicon Valley. Arnold Beckman and Beckman Instruments bankrolled Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory and Sherman Fairchild and Fairchild Camera and Instrument bankrolled the ex-Shockley eight who started Fairchild Semiconductor. What little I knew about Beckman made me thing this would be a dead-end branch with no interesting analog footsteps. But lets have a look, anyway. So on the anniversary of his birth, I present to you a better picture of Arnold Beckman.
Arnold Orville Beckman was born in rural Illinois in 1900. His father, George Beckman, was a blacksmith and he converted his old tool shed into a laboratory for his curious, youngest son. (No silver spoon or old money, here.) Arnold had discovered a chemistry book when he was nine and began performing experiments in his home lab. He ran centrifuge tests for a local store as a kid and while still in high school, started his own business, "Bloomington Research Laboratories", doing analytic chemistry for the local gas company. He excelled in high school and was allowed to take university level classes; graduating as valedictorian.
He went on to receive a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering from the University of Illinois in 1922 and his master's degree in physical chemistry in 1923. Chemistry. Gordon Moore was a chemist; maybe there is hope for analog footsteps. Beckman decided to go to Caltech for his doctorate (as did Moore). He stayed there for a year, before returning to New York to be near his fiancée, Mabel. He found a job with Western Electric's engineering department. Beckman developed quality control programs for the manufacture of vacuum tubes and learned about circuit design. Excellent! Beckman discovered his interest in circuits.
In 1926, Arnold and Mabel - now married - moved back to California and Beckman resumed his studies at Caltech. No analog footsteps, however. He received a Ph.D. in photochemistry. He stayed on as a professor. He shared his expertise in glass-blowing by teaching classes in the machine shop and also taught classes in the design and use of research instruments. Beckman dealt with instrumentation as manager of the chemistry department's instrument shop. Now we're back on track; this sounds like Jim Williams.
|Beckman Vacuum Tube used in pH Meter
With the school's blessing, Beckman began accepting outside work as a consultant. A former classmate of his from the University of Illinois had the job of measuring the acidity of lemon juice and asked Beckman to devise an electrical instrument for the task. Beckman, familiar with glassblowing, electricity, and chemistry, suggested a design for a vacuum-tube amplifier and ended up building a working apparatus. The glass electrode used to measure pH was placed in a grid circuit in the vacuum tube, producing an amplified signal that could then be read by an electronic meter. Beckman saw an opportunity, and rethinking the project, decided to create a complete chemical instrument that could be easily transported. With that, he started National Technical Laboratories. Among its other early products were an ultraviolet spectrophotometer (1940) and an infrared and visible spectrophotometer (1942). Beckman was asked to secretly produce a hundred infrared spectrophotometers to be used by authorized government scientists during the war. He did some work for MIT's Radiation Laboratory. The Manhattan Project also used Beckman instruments.
John J. Murdock held substantial stock in National Technical Laboratories. When Murdock died in 1948, Beckman was able to gain a controlling interest in the company. In 1950, National Technical Laboratories was renamed Beckman Instruments.
William Shockley had been one of Beckman's students at Caltech. In 1955, Shockley contacted Beckman about starting a new company to make semiconductors. "We propose to engage promptly and vigorously in activities related to semiconductors. The initial project contemplated is the development of automatic means for production of diffused-base-transistors." Because Shockley's aging mother lived in Palo Alto, Shockley wanted to establish the laboratory in nearby Mountain View, California. Frederick Terman, provost at Stanford University, offered the firm space in Stanford's new industrial park. To build the company Shockley tried to raid Bell Labs for talent, but was unsuccessful, as no one wanted to uproot their families to move across the U.S. (or work for Shockley, whose reputation had been tarnished by that time at Bell Labs). He did succeed at recruiting talent from Motorola, Philco, Raytheon and Sylvania as well as from top schools such as Berkeley, Caltech and MIT.
Probably the most significant recruit was Robert Noyce, who later recalled the first contact from Shockley "It was like picking up the phone and talking to God. He was absolutely the most important person in semiconductor electronics". Noyce had a fascination for the west coast and said "All ions wind up in California, if they meet their dream." I love that line! Of course, you know the Shockley-Fairchild-Silicon Valley history.
Beckman companies live on today in many forms including instrumentation. Beckman himself went on to be a significant philanthropist. In retrospect, he was quite an inventor and is quoted as saying, "The fun, the heart of the thing, is in the technical aspects".

There are several benefits to using a prepaid card, including to help limit spending, avoid carrying large amounts of cash or more vulnerable credit cards, and to teach young users about money, according to Constance Gustke for Bankrate. Additionally, personal information cannot be stolen from prepaid cards because these cards are not connected to it, keeping data such as Social Security and bank account numbers safe.Continue Reading
Because prepaid cards need previously deposited funds to use for purchases, they offer no credit balance, so the user only spends money he has and does not go into debt, explains Gustke. Such controlled spending allows the user to better manage previous debt and save for the long term. Prepaid debit cards are an excellent choice to use when traveling; the user loses only the current amount loaded on the card if the card is lost or stolen. There is no risk of damage to credit history or bank accounts, where funds may be more unlimited.
Parents benefit from prepaid cards by giving them to children with set limited amounts, reports Gustke. This forces the children to learn about spending habits, and parents have the option with certain prepaid cards to reload them when necessary and lock the account if desired. When making purchases online, buyers often find it less risky to use prepaid cards that reveal minimal personal information and help prevent identity theft and fraud.Learn more about Credit & Lending

NEW YORK, June 27 (UPI) — Hillary Clinton's new book Hard Choices won't be available in Chinese bookstores, with Chinese publishers declining to buy translation rights.
Released in May, the memoir about Clinton's experiences as U.S. Secretary of State includes negative references to China's leadership. She writes about the Chinese government's censorship of her 1995 address to a United Nations conference in Beijing on women's rights, and of activist Chen Guangcheng, who sought asylum in 2012 at a U.S. embassy.
"It's not a secret that the center of the anti-democratic movement in Asia is China," Clinton says in the book.
Jonathan Karp, president of Simon & Schuster, the book's U.S. publisher, said China's tightly-controlled publishers turned down opportunities to publish translated books; an import company, Shanghai Book traders, refused to sell copies of the book in English.
Despite the status of Clinton's book as a worldwide best-seller, Karp said it was under an "effective ban" in China.

The flag of Sri Lanka, also called the Lion Flag, consists of a gold lion, holding a kastane sword in its right fore paw, in front of a dark red background with four golden bo leaves, one in each corner. Around the background is a yellow border, and to its left are 2 vertical stripes of equal size in green and saffron, with the saffron stripe closest to the lion. The lion represents the Sinhalese ethnicity and the bravery of the Sri Lankan nation while the four Bo leaves represent Mettā, Karuna, Mudita and Upekkha. The orange stripe represents the Sri Lankan Tamils, the green stripe represents Sri Lankan Moors, and the maroon background represents the majority of Sinhalese, like the lion, this is the color used in early flags of Sri Lanka by kings.
It was adopted in 1950 following the recommendations of a committee appointed by the 1st Prime Minister of Ceylon, The Rt Hon D.S. Senanayake.
When Vijaya, the first King of the southern parts of island of Sri Lanka, arrived in Sri Lanka from India in 486 BC, he brought with him a flag with a symbol of a lion on it. Since then the Lion symbol played a significant role in the history of Sri Lanka. It was used extensively by North Indian rulers who followed King Vijaya and it became a symbol of freedom and hope. When the King Dutugemunu embarked on the campaign in which he defeated the Tamil King Elara, who had ruled the northern and eastern parts of the island, he carried with him a banner which portrayed a lion carrying a sword on his right forepaw along with two other symbols, the Sun and the Moon.
The banner was in use until 1815, when the reign of the last king of the Kandyan Kingdom, King Sri Vikrama Rajasinha, was brought to an end with the Kandyan nobility's signing of the Kandy convention on 2 March proclaiming King George III as King of Ceylon and replacing the Lion flag with the Union Flag as the national flag of Ceylon. The government of British Ceylon used its own flag. The Lion Flag was taken to England and kept at the Royal Hospital Chelsea.
Then, as the independence movement in Sri Lanka gained strength in the early 20th century, E. W. Perera, a prominent figure of the independence movement with the help of D. R. Wijewardene, the press baron, discovered the original Lion flag in Chelsea. A picture of it was subsequently published in a special edition of the Dinamina newspaper to mark 100 years since the end of Sri Lankan independence. The Lion flag then became a centrepiece of attraction to the public, who for the first time since the fall of the Kandyan Kingdom were now aware of its actual design.
In 1948 the flag was adapted as the national flag of the Dominion of Ceylon, however the flag underwent several changes in 1953 and again in 1972. During the same year four leaves of the Bo tree were added to the four corners of the Sri Lankan National flag under the direction of Nissanka Wijeyeratne. At the time, he was Permanent Secretary to the Ministry of Cultural Affairs and Chairman of the National Emblem and Flag Design Committee. Prior to 1972, the corners of the flag were occupied by symbols depicting spearheads. The four Bo Leaves added by Wijeyeratne reflect the core principles of Mettha (loving kindness), Karuna (compassion), Upeksha (equanimity) & Muditha (happiness).
The national flag of Sri Lanka represents the country and its heritage as rallying device that integrates the minorities with the majority race. However, minorities are shown as such with percentage based allocation on the flag, rather than equal basis as is common elsewhere including the United Kingdom. Most symbols in the flag have been given distinctive meanings.

In this volume, the state of the art in geodesy is presented with special emphasis on the challenges of the next decade. It is subdivided into six parts. The first five parts discuss the challenges of providing a stable global reference at the parts per billion level by space methods, the impact of recently approved dedicated satellite missions on the determination of a high resolution global gravity field and its refinements by airborne gravity, advances in geodynamics and their impact on the monitoring of seismic hazards and earthquake prediction, the increasing use of GPS and INS in kinematic mode for mapping the Earth's surface and monitoring the behaviour of large man-made structures, and the related advances in mathematical theory and numerical techniques. The last part is dedicated to the discussion of a new structure for IAG to meet these challenges.First, we check for astepsa introduced into the GPS solution as a result of changes in the GPS satellite constellation.

The Series
(Lafayette leads, 71-59-5) Lafayette and Lehigh have met 135 times on the gridiron, dating back to the first encounter in the 1884 season. The two teams have met in Easton 63 times, with the Leopards holding a 37-21-5 advantage in those contests. There have been 52 shutouts in the series, with Lafayette owning 37 of them.
The Last Meeting
(Lehigh 14, Lafayette 12 -- Nov. 20, 1999, in Bethlehem, Pa.) Playing the role of huge underdogs in its final game under 19-year Head Coach Bill Russo, Lafayette lost a dramatic contest to archrival Lehigh.
The Head Coaches
The newest era in the proud history of Lafayette football began when Frank Tavani (Lebanon Valley '75) was named the 27th head football coach in the history of the program. Tavani, who is in his first season at the helm of the Leopards, had been a top member of the College's coaching staff for the past 13 seasons, serving most recently as associate head coach since 1994.
Kevin Higgins (West Chester '77) is in his seventh season at Lehigh and as a collegiate head coach. His overall career record stands at 54-24-1 (.690), and he is 5-1 vs. Lafayette.
The Yarberough Record Watch
Lafayette senior co-captain Phil Yarberough (Lebanon, Pa./Lebanon), who has been ranked among the leading receivers in NCAA Division I-AA all season despite playing with a torn ligament in his left elbow for the past two weeks, has broken two Lafayette career records and is on track to break two others. He is now Lafayette's all-time leader in career receiving yardage with 2,233 yards, and the Leopards' single season recorder holder for receptions with 69. Yarberough needs one reception to break the career receptions record and 62 yards to break the single season receiving mark.
Five Academic All-Americans
Five Leopards, the most ever for a Lafayette football team, have earned a spot on the 2000 Verizon District II Academic All-America squad. The quintet of Leopards, which are as many as any other program in the Patriot League, include first-team honorees Kenya Allen (Imperial, Pa./West Allegheny), a junior defensive back with a 3.57 grade point average in Psychology, and Stewart Kupfer (Plymouth Meeting, Pa./Plymouth Whitemarsh), a junior tight end with a 3.40 GPA in Economics and Business. The three Leopards named to the second team are junior quarterback Chad Ritchie (Winchester, Va./John Handley), who carries a 3.43 GPA majoring in Economics and Business, sophomore defensive back Jamie Anzalone (Shavertown, Pa./Wyoming Seminary), who has a 3.38 GPA and has yet to declare a major, and sophomore defensive back Herb Kennedy (Troy, N.Y./Troy), a Chemistry major with a 3.38 GPA.

Through games of Nov. 11, 2000, Lafayette senior split end Phil Yarberough (Lebanon, Pa./Lebanon) is ranked ninth among NCAA Division I-AA leaders in receptions per game with an average of 6.90 and ninth among leaders in receiving yards per game with an average of 98.70. The Leopards among the top-50 NCAA Division I-AA leaders:
Receptions per game -- Phil Yarberough (6.90 avg.) -- 9th
Receiving yards per game -- Phil Yarberough (98.70) -- 9th
Passing offense -- 29th (242.40 avg.)
Lafayette can play the role of spoilers in this season's historic meeting with nationally-ranked Lehigh. Although there have been many great upsets in this storied rivalry, no team has entered the game with a perfect undefeated record and lost. Lafayette brought perfect records into The Game in 1921 (9-0 -- National Champions), 1926 (9-0 -- National Champions), 1937 (8-0), and 1940 (9-0), while Lehigh did the same in 1950 (9-0) and 1998 (12-1, with a loss in the NCAA Playoffs).
Touchdown May-ker
Lafayette junior flanker Andrew May (Poughkeepsie, N.Y./Ketcham) has produced touchdowns at a rampant pace. The art major has officially touched the ball 27 times in Leopards' 10 games, including 18 receptions for 393 yards, one rush for 11 yards, and eight kickoff returns for 243 yards. Of those 27 "touches," six have resulted in touchdowns. In other words, nearly 25 percent of the time May touches the ball he scores a touchdown.
... And He Breaks Records Too!
The momentum shifted dramatically in the Leopards' 28-13 victory over Holy Cross when junior Andrew May (Poughkeepsie, N.Y./Ketcham) returned a kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown and a 14-7 Lafayette lead. The return, which was the first returned for a Leopard touchdown since Scott Kershaw went 90 yards for a score at Fordham on Nov. 3, 1990, set a new Lafayette school record for the longest kickoff return in history. The previous record was 95 yards by Angelo Giombetti vs. Fordham on Nov. 5, 1977.
Leopards Blitz the TV Airwaves ... Again!
The 2000 Lafayette College football season will see a five contests, including today's Lafayette-Lehigh game, hit the television air waves via the Lafayette Sports Network. The Lafayette Sports Network, the most expansive television package in the Patriot League three years running, can be seen by more than 5.2 million viewers in the Lehigh Valley, Philadelphia, central New Jersey, New York City, and Boston. Locally, the telecasts are aired on RCN TV-4 and WBPH-TV 60, and can be seen on RCN Cable channels 4 and 60, Service Electric Cable channel 51, Suburban Cable channel 17, Blue Ridge Cable channel 5, and broadcast channel 60.
Renowned local sports broadcaster Gary Laubach handles all of the Leopards' play-by-play duties for the fourth season. In his third full season of football broadcasts is John Leone, Lafayette's Acting Director of Alumni Affairs, who provides color analysis. In his fourth season on the crew, RCN's Scott Barr handles analysis on the Leopards from the sidelines.
Top 10 in Graduation Rates for Football -- 1st in Basketball
The Lafayette football program is ranked 10th in all of NCAA Division I in graduation rates for student-athletes who entered from 1989 to 1992. The Leopards' 81 percent graduation rate ties them with Stanford and Vanderbilt.
In fact, Lafayette College is the only NCAA Division I institution in the nation with a perfect graduation rate for men's and women's basketball players who entered from 1989 to 1992. The College is ranked first in the nation as one of four Division I institutions to graduate all men's basketball players entering during that time within six years, which is how the NCAA measures graduation rates. Lafayette is also among 13 schools from which all women's basketball players earned degrees.
Yarberough Moving Up the Charts
Lafayette senior split end Phil Yarberough (Lebanon, Pa./Lebanon), Lafayette's all-time leader in career receiving yards with 2,233, is currently tied for the all-time lead in career receptions with 152. He needs one reception to become Lafayette's all-time leading receiver, surpassing Philip Ng (1985-88, 152 rec.).
In the Patriot League record books, Yarberough is currently 10th all-time in career receiving yards and tied for 12th all-time in career receptions.
Crossing the Line
Three Lafayette juniors changed sides of the ball in preparation for the Holy Cross game. Rob Wildasin (Annville, Pa./Annville-Cleona) was moved from flanker to free safety and started against the Crusaders, coming through with five tackles, including the first one of the game. Also, Adriel Linyear (Brooklyn, N.Y./Shaker), who has played linebacker and defensive back, was moved to tailback, and Jeff Werrell (Allentown, Pa./Salisbury), who is now wearing number 18, was moved from split end to corner back.
Oh Canada!
Lafayette freshman quarterback Marko Glavic (Pickering, Ontario/St. Mary Catholic) made his collegiate debut with 1:36 remaining in the second quarter vs. Princeton, and impressively completed 18-of-30 passes for 243 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions. His first TD pass was a 66-yard bomb to Andrew May (Poughkeepsie, N.Y./Ketcham), and his second was a game-winning two-yard fade to Phil Yarberough (Lebanon, Pa./Lebanon) with :02 remaining in the game. In less than 30 minutes vs. Harvard, he completed 16-of-29 passes for 269 yards and two touchdowns. In fact, Glavic has thrown for over 200 yards in five contests.
Watch Out for The Warden
Leopard junior tailback Scott Warden (Warrington, Pa./Central Bucks West) has taken on a more serious role since starting tailback Bill Stocker (Easton, Pa./Wilson) suffered a lower back injury. Warden has started the last six contests and came through in a huge way against Holy Cross. He scored three touchdowns and rushed for 76 yards on 19 carries. In the Leopards' near upset at Colgate, Warden rushed for a career-high 101 yards on 32 carries.
2000 Team Captains
The 2000 Lafayette College football team captains, as chosen by their teammates, are senior defensive tackle Mike Levy (Bel Air, Md./Fallston), and senior split end Phil Yarberough (Lebanon, Pa./Lebanon).
Freshmen Impact
A total of 37 freshmen entered Lafayette's preseason camp this season. Three of those freshmen have started for the Leopards -- offensive tackle Kevin Moss (New York, N.Y./Simsbury) has started eight contests, quarterback Marko Glavic (Pickering, Ontario/St. Mary Catholic) started seven of the last eight, and Pat Brown (Bethlehem, Pa./Bethlehem Catholic) made his first collegiate start at Columbia. Two others have already made an impact for the Leopards. Receiver Jeremy Burkes (Memphis, Tenn./Memphis East) is second on the team with 32 receptions for 259 yards, while Joel Cesare (Whitehall Pa./Whitehall) has returned 18 punts and 18 kickoffs.
Lafayette vs. the Patriot League
The Leopards have played 296 games all-time against the six fellow members of the Patriot League, and are 147-133-16 (.524) in those contests. Since the Patriot League began play in 1986, the Leopards are 41-33-1 (.553) vs. member schools and have won league titles in 1988, 1992, and 1994. Lafayette vs. the Patriot League: Bucknell 41-31-6 Fordham 15-3-1 Lehigh 71-59-5 Colgate 9-31-4 Holy Cross 9-6-0 Towson 2-3-0
Mr. Sure Hands
Leopard senior co-captain Phil Yarberough (Lebanon, Pa./Lebanon), Lafayette's all-time leader in career receiving yards and single season receptions, has recorded two 11-reception games already this season. He caught 11 passes for 119 yards and the game-winning touchdown with :02 remaining vs. Princeton. Against Harvard, he caught 11 passes for a career-high 175 yards. Yarberough is the first Lafayette receiver to catch 10 or more passes in a game since Frank Corbo, the Leopards' second all-time leading receiver, caught 11 passes vs. Columbia on Sept. 24, 1983.
Weekly Radio Show
Lafayette Sports Weekly, a comprehensive half-hour radio show will air live each Thursday at 7:00 p.m. from September through March on the Lafayette Sports Network's flagship radio station, WEST AM Stereo 1400, and online at www.lafayette.edu.

Head football coach Frank Tavani will be a featured guest during the football season.
Home Sweet Home
Erected in 1926, Lafayette College's Fisher Field is in its 74th season as the home of the Leopards, having played host to 358 Lafayette football games. Lafayette has recorded 12 undefeated home seasons at Fisher Field. The Leopards are 215-130-13 (.619) overall at Fisher Field.
Local Flavor -- 10 Lehigh Valley Leopards
The 2000 Lafayette College football team boasts 10 members from the Lehigh Valley. Consistently a heavy recruiter in the Lehigh Valley, Lafayette brought in three local freshmen this past recruiting year. The Lehigh Valley Leopards:
78 Pat Brown (Fr./DL/Bethlehem, Pa./Bethlehem Catholic)
7 Joel Cesare (Fr./WR/Whitehall, Pa./Whitehall)
2 Andy Ficzko (Sr./TB/Doylestown, Pa./Central Bucks East)

All-Time Record
The Leopards are in their 119th football season, having played 1,127 games. Lafayette boasts an impressive all-time record of 590-498-39 (.541) and ranks 30th on the nation's all-time victories list. Lafayette leads the Patriot League in all-time wins, with Lehigh the closest at 563.
Hello . . . Nice to Meet You
There are a total of seven changes made to the Lafayette football coaching staff for the 2000 season, most notably the naming of Frank Tavani as the 27th head coach in the history of the program. Tavani's first order of business was naming Mike Faragalli as offensive coordinator and John Loose as defensive coordinator. Faragalli served as the offensive coordinator at Division I-A Bowling Green eight of the past nine seasons, while Loose was the linebackers coach at Division I-A Army the past eight seasons. Tavani also named Matt Hachmann as the running backs coach, Bryan Cook as a defensive assistant, and both Kevin Keating and Keita Malloy as offensive assistants.

It was an extraordinary radio moment. Within a few hours after he had been fired as coach of the Denver Broncos, Dan Reeves was talking live with Mike Ditka-only a week away from his own exile-two of the most successful coaches in the National Football League having an intensely personal conversation in a most public setting.
It happened not on a 50,000-watt radio giant, but on a fledgling 5,000-watt station that was nearing the end of its first year of existence, having outlived, already in some eyes, its life expectancy at birth.

Gulliver's Travels
eBook (ePub)
Price: $4.00
Y father had a small estate in Nottinghamshire; I was the third of five sons. He sent me to Emanuel College in Cambridge, at fourteen years old, where I resided three years, and applied myself close to my studies; but the charge of maintaining me (although I had a very scanty allowance) being too great for a narrow fortune, I was bound apprentice to Mr. James Bates, an eminent surgeon in London, with whom I continued four years; and my father now and then sending me small sums of money, I laid them out in learning navigation, and other parts of the mathematics, useful to those who intend to travel, as I always believed it would be some time or other my fortune to do. When I left Mr. Bates, I went down to my father; where, by the assistance of him and my uncle John, and some other relations, I got forty pounds, and a promise of thirty pounds a year to maintain me at Leyden: there I studied physic two years and seven months, knowing it would be useful in long voyages.

To make a new appointment referral, you may either phone or fax in your referral.
If you have a need for an urgent consultation, call our physician operator at 206-987-7777 or, toll-free, 877-985-4637, option 4, and indicate this is an urgent call. You will be able to speak with the physician on call for any service needed who will help you.
Download the New Appointment Request Form (PDF) (DOC).
The purpose of this form is to streamline the process of scheduling patients into Children's specialty clinics and gathering information necessary to schedule the appointment.
Our goal is to maximize the efficiency of scheduling new patient appointments and to coordinate care with primary care and other referring physicians.
We try to do this by gathering the clinical information needed to schedule an appointment promptly and appropriately as early in the referral process as possible.
The NARF also makes it easier for the Children's scheduler and the family to communicate during the appointment-making process.
This form is appropriate to use for all Children's specialty clinics except for Child Psychiatry and Behavioral Health, which is accessed by calling 206-987-2164. If a NARF is faxed in, however, it will be forwarded to Child Psychiatry.
You may use your own office referral form as long as it contains the same information as the NARF. However, we believe that appointments will be scheduled more quickly and with less hassle for your office, your patients and for Children's if this form is used.
Or you may call in the referral to 206-987-2080 or toll-free 866-987-2000, ext. 72080.
No. This form's intent is to streamline the new patient intake and triage. Please continue to call the clinic directly for return appointments. Phone numbers for each service can be found via the links on All Clinics and Programs (A to Z).
Yes, for those patients whose healthcare plans require it. Insurance referral authorization is a separate process that requires the use of the individual health care plan's authorization forms, so you will still need to fax those to Children's Insurance Processing Department's central fax number at 206-987-FAXS (3297).
Yes, fax that along with the NARF. We use that information to help ensure appropriate scheduling, and the schedulers make it available for the patient's visit. It also helps in coordinating care between you and Children's physicians.
You can list all of the clinics on the same NARF. Be sure and include the relevant clinical information for each specialty clinic.
No. It is a dedicated line and will only go to the scheduling staff.
Once we receive the completed referral, the family should call the clinic directly to schedule an appointment. Generally they can call after one business day from the time the referral was sent.
To reach the clinic the family may call Children's at 206-987-2000, or, toll-free, 866-987-2000, and ask for the specific specialty clinic's scheduling line.
If the family doesn't call after 2 weeks, you will be notified if your patient has not been scheduled.
We are continuously evaluating and seeking to improve the NARF. Please send your comments and suggestions to Meagan Solis.
You can download the NARF (PDF, DOC) or duplicate the form yourself in your office. If you would like us to fax a blank copy to you, please call our Clinical Intake office at 206-987-2080.

Charlton have signed Sunderland defender Greg Halford on loan until the end of the season, the Barclays Premier League club have announced.
The 23-year-old defender moves to The Valley after making eight league appearances for the Black Cats following his switch to Wearside from Reading last summer.
Pardew told his club's website: "Part of doing business is to make sure you try to do something that's useful for your club.
"I lost Jermain Defoe in a similar situation when I was at West Ham United, and brought in Bobby Zamora.
"Hopefully, we can have similar success with Greg. He's coming here on loan and I think he's got a lot to prove.
"It didn't work out for him at Reading, it didn't work out for him at Sunderland, so I think he needs to be a success here, but I think he will be a massive asset for us."
