The public is cordially invited to attend. Tho continued decline ot Nazi export economy was point¬ ed out in a report on Gorman trade released 3'esterday by Dr. Joseph Tenenbaum, Chairman of the Joint Boycott Council of the American Jewish Congress and the Jewish -Labor Commit¬ tee. According to tho report, exports from greater Germany for the tirst three months ot 1939 did not reach the figure attained hy the old Reich for the corresponding period of 1038, exports in 1939 totaling 1332.0 million marks as com¬ pared with 13B0 millon marks in 1938. At the' same time, imports into greater Germany increased from 1,308.8 million marks to 1447.9, an increase ot 3..5 per¬ cent. As a result, Germany's unfavorable trade balance rose from 39 million marks..f'-' ;he first three months of ,,-)38 to 115.3 million marks iti 1939, an Increase ot almost 300 percent. Increased importations ot raw material for use in arma¬ ments s\ich as motor fuel and lubricating oil, as "woll as tbe needs ot Austria and the "pro¬ tectorate" ot Bohemia and Mor¬ avia, whicii have no natural re¬ sources except timber and coal and aro greatly dependent on imports, were responsible for this trend. U. S. Imports Drop 20% Considering German-Ameri¬ can trade. Dr. Tenenbaum's re¬ port Indicates that tor the first three months ot 1939, importa¬ tions from greater Germany in¬ to the United States totaled .'518,- 987,871 as compared with $22,- 761,104 tor 1938 or a drop of 20%. He points out that In 1938, almost one-halt of the im- jjorts from Germany con.sisted of chemical products, metals and manufactures, machinery and vehicles. Imports of chemi¬ cal products alone being valued at 518,042,000 or 30% of total Imports. Dr. Tenenbaum main¬ tains that these figures show the necessity ot strengthening the Boycott in tho capital goods industries. As tor general consumer items, the report indicates that the Boycott has been most ef¬ fective. Examples of this trend can be found in the decline ot textile fibres and manufactures which dropped from $7,182,000 in 193G to $1,080,000 in 1938, and animal products including loath er and furs which declined from $4,350,000 to 81,050,000 during the same period. Calling attention to the huge increase in the importation ot cameras and photographic sup¬ plies, Dr. Tenenbaum's report show.-, that the importation of thesi products lias increased from $4;M,043 in 1032 to $4,322,- 000 in 1938. He points out that Germany has obtained more foreign exchange from her sale of cameras in this counti-y than from the total amount re¬ ceived for toys, jewelry, gloves, fiurs, glassware, beads and spangles. In a statement Issued at the (Continued ou Vaee 81 TERUSALEM (WNS):— Extraordinary preparations are being made throughout Pales-. tine in anticipation of tho pub¬ lication of the While Paper in which will be announced tho future policy of Great Britain in Palestine. Annoucement that the con¬ tents of the White Paper would be broadcast .shortly has arous¬ ed the most profound feeling throughout the Yishuv. All Jewish organizations of Eretz Israel have met in a continual series ot conferences to deter¬ mine on measuies to be pur¬ sued in a concerted attempt to frustrate the new iioliej' after the appearance of the White Paper. The entire group ot Labor organizations held a con¬ ference in Tel Aviv, where the I,abor and Ezrachim (middle- class) blocs and youths, stu¬ dents and leaders met subse¬ quently. Tho latter groups have moved a joint resolution with the Tel Aviv Municipality. Il is reported that British Po¬ lice otticers of Tel Aviv hav« received sealed orders from Jerusalem containing instruc¬ tions on procedure to be follow¬ ed in ease of possible outbreak of violence. Patrols have beon increased ¦ ar tlt6 boundaries,'^- and mounted constables are on duty in the streets. Proclama¬ tions against illegal activities have been issued. The Chief Rabbinate pro¬ claimed Thursday as a day of fasting and prayer—Yom Kip¬ pur Katan (Small Day of Atone¬ ment). Appeal is made to the Yishuv to stop work and join in prayers for two hours dui'ing the evening. That the Arab terrorists are no more satisfied with the terms ot the forth-coming While Pa¬ per than are the Jews is indi¬ cated- in reports that they are planning an increase of vio¬ lence directly after pubUcation, as foreshadowed in the two manitosloes issued during the past week by the "Arab Rebel High Command." Survey Being IVIade Of Unnaturalized Residents Here The Columbus section of Na¬ tional Council of Jewish Women in cooperation with the B'nal Brith and the Jewish War Vet¬ erans, has undertaken a survey ot the Jewish community to determine the number ot un¬ naturalized residents now liv¬ ing here who have not applied for their tirst citizenship pa¬ pers. It is the aim ot this group to assist all such aliens in becom¬ ing citizens. Those who have not been contacted are urged to get in touch with Mrs. Wil¬ liam Schiff Council president, FA. 8306 or Miss Alice Loeb FA. 5833,^ in charge of the present dijtve.

The recent announcement and debut trailer for Grand Theft Auto V has sent the internet into overdrive, with players discussing the possible new features and locations that the latest in the open-world series could bring. We look back at some of the most memorable missions from the 3D Grand Theft Auto titles, from action-packed set pieces to decisions that have a dramatic impact on the game's story.
(Warning: The following videos contain spoilers for Grand Theft Auto III, GTA: Vice City, GTA: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto IV that you may want to avoid.)
Sayonara Salvatore (Grand Theft Auto III)
This mission marks the death of a major character in the series, Salvatore Leone, who stars across Grand Theft Auto III, GTA: San Andreas and Liberty City Stories. After the player is betrayed by Salvatore, Yakuza leader Asuka wants you to prove your loyalty by killing the mob boss as he leads his nightclub. After a lengthy wait on a rooftop, the player just needs a single shot to complete the task. If done right, his bodyguards amusingly walk away from the scene of the crime as if nothing happened.
The Exchange (Grand Theft Auto III)
The final mission in Grand Theft Auto III is one of sweet revenge for protagonist Claude. After leaving him for dead in the game's opening moments and wreaking havoc as the leader of the Cartel, former girlfriend Catalina demands ransom money for kidnapping mob-wife Maria. With the exchange made, Catalina flees with the cash and orders Claude to be killed, only for him to escape and chase her to a nearby dam for the final showdown. After a long gun battle and Marina secure, Claude blows up Catalina's helicopter with a well-placed rocket, ending the game.
Cop Land (Grand Theft Auto: Vice City)
This mission turns the usual theme of police evasion on its head. After a bomb fails to detonate at a local mall, Tommy Vercetti and Lance Vance need to sneak into the crime scene in order to finish the job. The mission has players commit crimes and earn a high enough wanted level to get chased, luring the police into a garage to take their uniforms and sneak into the mall. The mission is made more enjoyable by Lance's comedy dialogue and awkward attempts to blend in during the mission.
Keep Your Friends Close... (Grand Theft Auto: Vice City)
Another final mission in our round-up, this is a similar amount of emotional significance to the main character Tommy. He's paid a visit by former boss Sonny Forelli, who arrives in Vice City to tax Tommy's now-flourishing business. Handing over $3 million in fake cash, he's then sold out by close accomplice Lance Vance, leading to a huge shoot-out in the Vercetti Mansion that leads both Lance and Sonny dead, and Tommy finally in charge of the city.
Stowaway (Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas)
Between the game's final two cities, you're introduced to a dusty air strip where you learn to pilot planes, and is a location that also features a number of entertaining missions. One of the best is Stowaway, which features an agent voiced by the superb James Woods that tasks you with boarding a plane filled with government officials and blowing it up. From chasing the plane down the runway on a bike, to dodging Donkey Kong-style barrels and parachuting to safety, this is easily one of the best missions in the game.
Saint Mark's Bistro (Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas)
As if Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas couldn't be more ambitious by featuring an entire three cities, it also features the surprising cameo of GTA III locale Liberty City. With the objective to kill mobster Forelli, you have to fly a jet off the right side of the map, triggering a transition that leads you to the the East Coast. While you can't explore the city in any way - you're indoors for the duration of the mission - you get a quick look at the snowy Liberty City through a cutscene before flying back home again.
Three Leaf Clover (Grand Theft Auto IV)
One of Grand Theft Auto IV's toughest missions is also one of the most memorable. The final part of Packie's mission sees his brother, friend Michael and Niko attempt to rob the Bank of Liberty of $1 million. Of course, it doesn't go to plan, with a have-a-go-hero gunning down one of the group followed by a street and subway battle with the police. The group eventually make it out alive, and the player is rewarded with a hefty $250,000 for their efforts.
The Holland Play (Grand Theft Auto IV)
The first of many branching story missions in the game, Niko is asked by side-characters Playboy X and Dwayne to assassinate each other, with the player left deciding who to kill. While there is no right or wrong answer, the rewards vary dramatically; killing Dwayne will see you rewarded with a small sum of cash, but Playboy X will soon disown Niko after regretting the decision. Meanwhile, taking down Playboy X provides a tense shootout and the keys to his apartment, some money, a few new costumes and no guilt whatsoever.

The Cubs Have a Top Five Prospect in All of Baseball and Other Bullets
So, Aaron Rodgers is going to be back for tomorrow's win-and-you're-in Bears/Packers game. That kind of sucks for the Bears, though – as a football fan, generally, you'd hope not to see Rodgers re-injure his collar bone, either. But, you know, hopefully he's rusty or something. I'd like to see a team that I kinda-sorta am starting to care about make the playoffs.
- For your excitement file: Jason Parks, the lead prospect dude at Baseball Prospect says we're going to see three Cubs prospects in the top 25 when BP releases its next top 101 list (early next year), and it'll be Javier Baez, Kris Bryant, and Albert Almora.* Moreover, Parks noted that Baez will be in the top five. Given the guys in the top five range – Byron Buxton, Francisco Lindor, Xander Bogaerts, Carlos Correa – it's pretty impressive to hear of Baez's inclusion. That's elite-elite, with a side of elite. Remember: these rankings not only after a season's worth of performance and stats, they come after BP speaks at length with talent evaluators, organizational members, and other scouts about the prospects. In other words, it isn't just Baez's video game numbers season in 2013 that catapulted him up the rankings – it's also what folks who've been watching him believe.
- *(Because I have allowed myself to become irrationally excited about Cubs prospects, "three in the top 25" initially disappointed me. Four in the top 30 is more impressive, but I'm guessing Jorge Soler will wind up somewhere closer to 40 or 50 because of the leg injury and limited season. BP has never been as high on C.J. Edwards as some other publications, so he might be down in the 60s or so. The choice for plaudit may have been "three in the top 25" or "five in the top 65." The former is more impressive, I think.)
- Agent Joshua Kusnick writes about his experience at the Winter Meetings, and I'm instantly struck how the big victory moment for him was having one of his players – Adrian Nieto – selected in the Rule 5 Draft. It's a reminder that the game isn't just about the stars, and there's a lot of hustling going on (in a good way). I suspect that the life of your average, non-superstar agent is a tough one, far more rewarding for its successes (like having a player taken in the Rule 5) than its payout.
- Beyond the Boxscore on whether payroll disparity is disappearing. Kinda? At least in terms of teams' ability to spend big money.
- Some favorite baseball idiosyncrasies from BP, including Luis Valbuena's epic bat flip.

Health Care Bills: Four Mistakes That are Costing You Money
By Lisa Zamosky
You may not have control over high medical costs, but when it comes to medical bills you can make a huge difference in how much you pay for your care. The key is to know when and where to take action.
Here are four mistakes that can take a big financial toll when it comes to medical bills.
1. You don't review your bills. Medical bills are notoriously riddled with errors. If you pay your bills without reviewing them with a fine-toothed comb, you're very likely to pay more for your medical care than you should.
The solution: Be on the lookout for additional hospital days, duplicate or excessive charges, charges for doctor visits or tests you never got, or any number of items that don't jibe with the care you believe you received.
Address any errors right away with the billing department or office manager in your doctor's office or the hospital where you received care.
2. You don't confirm that your insurer paid. Another form of medical billing error often occurs in the form of doctors or hospitals failing to bill your insurance company or doing so improperly. If you have more than one type of insurance, it's very common for confusion to occur about which company should pay first and which should pick up the remainder of the bill.
Before you pay medical charges, make sure that your health care provider has properly billed your insurer and that your insurer has, in turn, paid what it owes.
3. You accept defeat without a fight. It's a huge mistake to assume that being denied coverage by your insurance company means the decision about whether or not your care will be paid for is final.
As a result of the health reform law, you have the right to appeal coverage denials by your insurance company. If your insurance company does not rule in your favor your plan is required to explain why and provide you with information about how to obtain an independent review of your case (this doesn't apply to grandfathered health plans).
Not only is it your right to appeal, there's evidence that doing so pays off. A report conducted last year by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) found that as many as 59% of health insurance appeals were decided in favor of the patient. And 40% of external appeals — those reviewed by an independent third party — were reversed in the patient's favor as well.
Bottom line: If you don't fight back you're probably leaving money on the table.
4. You don't negotiate. Here's a fact that makes many patients uncomfortable: You need to haggle with your doctor over the cost of your care. Prices for medical care are not set in stone and you can save yourself a lot of money by asking for a break. This is particularly important if you're without insurance or if you have a high-deductible health plan that requires you to pay thousands of dollars before insurance kicks in to help pay the bills.
You can arm yourself for negotiation by researching a fair price for the medical service you need. Many health insurers offer members a pricing tool that can be found on the company's website. And online tools such as Healthcare Blue Book are available to those without insurance or with a health plan that doesn't offer the service.

SANDUSKY, Ohio (AP) - The parents and a grandmother have been charged in the death of a malnourished 18-month-old disabled boy in northern Ohio.
The indictment was returned Monday in Sandusky against Adrienne Bartholomew and James Brothers and a grandmother, Debra Nelson, all of Vermilion.
Each faces charges including involuntary manslaughter in the death, and child endangering involving five other youngsters.
The three were arrested late Monday and jailed on bonds of more than a quarter-million dollars each. It wasn't clear if they have attorneys representing them.
After the baby died in November, authorities removed from the home six other children, most with disabilities and malnourished. The autopsy blamed the death on malnourishment and dehydration.

Consumer Alert
June 2012
Taxpayers should be on the lookout for a new, email-based phishing scam now circulating that targets Department of Defense military members, retirees and civilian employees. The email appears to come from Defense Finance and Accounting Services and displays a .mil email address. The email states that those receiving disability compensation from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) may be able to obtain additional funds from the IRS. Email recipients are then asked to send various VA and IRS documents containing their personal and financial information, such as copies of VA award letters or their income tax returns, to an address in Florida.
The information on these documents is then used by the scammers to commit identity theft. Typically, identity thieves use someone's personal data to empty the victim's financial accounts, run up charges on the victim's existing credit cards or apply for new loans, credit cards, services or benefits in the victim's name.

Xbox 360 flash drive upgrade with Fall Update not a happy accident, says Microsoft
Xbox 360's flash drive was updated from 16GB to 32GB with the Fall 2012 update, and according to Microsoft, the upgrade was intentional and not some lucky side effect of the update process. "The more our customers use their profile and download digital content, the larger the file size necessary to store that content and move it between consoles gets," a Microsoft spokesperson told Joystiq. "Therefore we increased the size of the memory to enable our customers to take more of their Xbox profile with them on the go." Joystiq initially contacted Microsoft to confirm the storage increase was not something which would be reversed at a later date. The Fall Update started rolling out October 15.

A school where white people mainly doninate and where they dont... they think they do. Made up of farmer districts (Chesterfield, Springfield, Masfield, and N Hanover) and of coarse lovely McGuire. Our main diversity comes from Mapleton or Base. F'in Confederate flags with proud rednecks that stand behind them, and a hell of a lot of racism issues. Wanna-be bloods, crips, thugs, and ganstas but none of them are as bad as the ag. brats that think they're big because they ride on tractors for a living. Behind all the issues, once weed is involved... everyone gets along.

A highschool located on the corner of Indian Rd and Michigan Ave, Sarnia Ontario. This school ranges from grade 9's to grade 12's, however some low lifes do decide to stay back for what is known as grade "12-X". People that have chosen to stay for "12-X" are mostly low lifes who dont want to make anything for themselves, so they just stay in highschool and do basic math, such as 2+2. 100% of people that stay for 12-X end up being poor loosers with no family.(for those of you still in highschool, 100% is the highest percent possible)
hey man do you want to do something with our lives?
nahhhh, lets just stay in highschool until they kick us out and live with our moms.
"Northern Highschool."

and as i pro mised to let you hear from me before a great while i now propose to give you a brief summary ofthe prominent events of our four months " life on the ocean wave the day we left new york jan 31st was fair but cold and windy having in the morning dropped down to staten island about 4 o'clock in the afternoon we weighed anchor set sail and in a few minutes our noble ship the stag hound of 1600 tons burthen and 226 feet in length was gliding along over the blue waves with dignity and grace it was truly a magnificent sight as we headed off that evening so beautifully from the shore and made our way out farther and farther upon the bosom of the " migh ty deep and the passengers spent the greater part of it pacing up and down the quarterdeck contemplating the enchant ing scene but our enjoyment did not continue to flow on altogether uinterrupt ed and undisturbed the remembrance of beloved relatives and friends from whom we had separated forced itself upon us as each look in oth ers face there could he seen a depth of in tense feeling over which our enjoyment of the moment played as the little ripples played upon the surface ofthe deep blue | sea around us the next morning i began to feel symp i toms of sea-sickness of this disease i 1 was under the impression i had some ex i perience in going from philadelphia to new york via cape may but i soon found that i knew nothing of its horrors i for three weeks and more i could scarce ' ly eat a mouthful of anything at all it ! really seemed to me at times that eating 1 was the most disgusting thing i had ever | seen men engaged in dishes which on shore had ever been most inviting sud ; denly lost all their attractions the very sight of them was loathsome ; and i not ! only hated them but almost every thing else even myself in fact if there is anything in the world ! that is calculated to raise the " old mar ry in a man quicker than another i be | lieve it is to put him on board a ship for 1 the first time let him get fairly sea-sick ■and then have a storm to come on and set the vessel to rolling tumbling and , pitching about like a crazy beast such was precisely my case when five days out ; during which time i had eaten nothing i but had been vomiting almost incessantly now i would like to give a little short j sketch of the storm i have alluded to ; but i it has been so long since and so many i other interesting matters have since pre ' j sented themselves during the voyage that i the immense excitement it created at the \ time cannot be so accurately described however as the principal features of it are so indelibly stamped upon my mem ory that they can never be erased i have concluded not to pass it by altogether un noticed as i said before we were then just l\ve days out from new york and about three degrees of the bermudas — it was now wednesday evening and we had had a pretty heavy gale accompanied with irregular squalls all the time from the monday morning previous early in the afternoon the wind began to increase and directly after there was seen a black ominous looking cloud making its way up from the horizon towards us in the direc tion from which the wind blew soon its threatenings were realized ; for in an hour or two the rain commenced falling in torrents ; the wind howled and whis tled as 1 had never heard it do belore ; the sea already raised to a high pitch by the continued gale began to assume a much more fearful aspect than ever our ship quite despaired of some time before the severest part of the tempest came on by her timid passengers was now beaten with double violence by the enlarged and maddened billows and although most of : i i the sails usually furled in cases of this > i kind had bepn taken in still mazeppalike ! she seemed to dash over the hilly surface i with increased vigoratevery bound eve : ry thing that was not fastened down about j the vessel was rolling here and there and ■i every where in the most confuspd disor der ; the heavy seas she had shipped and ! the still heavier ones she was then ship ping added new and redoubled conster nation to the bitter scene in fact things began to wear such a dubious aspect that a speedy change of some sort was looked forward to with the greatest certainty not only by the passengers but by the captain and crew also when to com plete the horrors of the hour the fore top - gallant fore royal main topmast main topgallant main royal mizzen topgallant and mizzen royal masts gave way and with their appendages came falling crash crash all over and about the ship in the most appalling manner by this time it was dark and we " turned in that night doubting whether we should ever be per mitted to see the light of another day — and as for me i suppose i was quite as indifferent about it as anyone else there ; for when a person gets to be as much un der the influence of nausea as 1 was then i am somewhat inclined to believe that ; h would regard a grave in the sea as more to be courted than dreaded but as j the night passed oil we found that the j storm was abating ; and in forty-eight j hours after we had fine weather which j continued till we passed to the other side j of the equator crippled as we were by the storm our j hopes of a quick passage were greatly | damped ; but fortunately for us we had i masts and fixtures on board ; and through j the indefatigable exertions and persever 1 ance of our vigilant captain we succeed i ed in getting all the wreck cleared away i and new masts put up in the course of i eighteen or twenty days but the shat 1 tered timbers and torn sails of this event opened an unusually large field of labor j for our carpenter and sail-maker who i like the other part of the crew always 1 have as much and more than they can do ) when there is nothing of the kind takes j place from here we kept on our course which had been pretty much southeast ; until we passed the cape verde islands ' about four degrees to the west when we turned south and crossed the equator in longitude between 29 deg and 30 min the next interesting incident that occurred ! with us was when off the coast of brazil in lat 2'p 25 ion 3s 29 sunday march 2nd it ' was about 6 o'clock a m and 1 had just left my stale room and gone on deck to take a bath when a man by my side poiniing over the star board bow cried out " a boat ! a boat ! with ' men in it in an instant the news was con 1 veyed to every ear on board and in about the same length ol time the starboard rail was lit ed fore and aft wilh anxious sailors and half dressed passengers all wondering and conjec turing what accident had befallen ihese discom ; j filed unhappy looking people as we drew j nearer abreast of them they making towards us all the while as hard they could they com i menced waving their hands and handkerchiefs . beckoning to us and calling out in an unintelli | gible language as if imploring us to receive j them on board at the time the sea was run ; ning moderately high and we were going along ! i at the rate of some live or six knots per hour ; i so that in a few minutes we had them consid i erably on the stern hut we were not sodes ' ! titute of humanity as to pass on and leave them there surrounded by death on every hand our j sympathies were quickly and enthusiasiically i aroused for them ; and as soon as the captain i could he hove the ship to and waited for them i to tow up pretty soon they came close up by j our side and their nautical garb at once gave i sufficient evidence that they were not strangers lo nor unacquainted wilh lhe lile of seafaring ] men a rope was then thrown over to them and 1 they were all able to pull themselves on board by it except one who we afterwards learned i was their captain he poor fellow was so exhausted lhat he could not help himself and ' we had to draw him up their tale was now the next thing to be learnt for as yet not a word had been understood from them this difficulty was removed however as soon as we got them and all of our men collected together ; for among our polyglot crew ot forty men which represented nearly as many different nations we quickly found our interpreter in the person of an old swede whose story concern in ihem as communicated by him to us irom them was in substance about as follows : they were swedes and belonged to the russian brig sylphide which had been to rio and taken in a cargo of one thousand eight hundred and twenty five bags of coffee wilh which she had sel sail for helsingfors finland when five days out from rio a severe storm or rather squall came upon them and so com pletely and suddenly wrecked their vessel lhat they had barely time lo secure one of the little boats and escape in it with their lives — not even having an opportunity to procure so much as a bottle of water nor a mouthful ot lood ; and their carpenter who was in bis berth sick at the time they had to abandon to a watery grave they had then been out three days in this condition with nothing to eat or drink save the legs ol their captain's boot which they said they had been chewing to sus tain life exposed as they were lo the burning ravs of a tropical sun without anything to eat or drink it is not reasonable to suppose lhat they could have lived more than two days long er at the farthest if we had not picked them up or they had not been otherwise providentially relieved we received the captain in our own cabin and at our table and entertained him as hospitably cw made him as comfortable in every wav as we well could his men went before the masi and proved a rery acceptable addition | lo our crew especially in doubling cape horn lor they could endure the cold much better than our seamen that day in commendation ofthe acl we had performed in the morning we read during divine service the parable ofthe good samai itan about three o'clock in the afternoon of the same day a little circumstance came under mv observation which though it may seem quite a trivial affair in the eyes of nianv mav never theless serve lo illustrate in some degree bow inconsiderate and disrespectful we too olten are ot the lives of inferior animals the subject of it was a little land bird very much resem bling our hedge sparrow which was discover ed resting upon one of the larboard main bra ces it had wandered out on the water and looked as if it was nearly perished and so weak it could scarcely fly on seeing it i ran be low and got a few crumbs f bread and strew d them along over the life boat nearest to it bul just at this moment ihe swedish captain who had now begun to revive came up on deck and spyingthedistressed little wanderer.he walk ed as deliberately to the rope noon which it was setting as it it had been some noxious intruder and shook it violently at ihis the bird flew off some distance from the ship and h o n came back again and lit in the very same place ; again the captain shook the rope with as much or more force than he had done at first and again the bird did just as it had done before — this same thing was repeated for lhe third time ; when the wearied little creature appa rently despairing of lile and welcoming death as a rebel to ils sufferings darted down upon the water and was seen no more one would have thought that lhat man of all others on board himself so recently and so similarly sit uated would have been the last to display such want of feeling keeping along down the south ameri can coast we passed on between patago nia and the falkland islands ; and on the morning of the 21st of march we found our selves within about 20 miles of staten land this was the first land we had seen since we left home and we did nothing but feast our eyes upon it all that forenoon ; until we got so far off irom it it had the resemblance of a mere cloud when we were nearest lo it i took up the telescope and looked at it for some lime but could distinguish nothing but its rugged and sterile looking mountain the highest peaks of which were covered wilh snow and presented quite a picturesque and lofty appearance no vegitaiion nor living thing of any sort could be discerned but a young bosionian whom we afterwards saw in valparaiso told us he pass ed so near the shores of some of the land there he did not know the name of it lying at the southern extremity of patagonia lhat he could see the natives who he said were a great tall gigantic people about eight feet high (?) and who ran along on the shore abreast of them and whooped and yelled at hem like wild ferocious indians on sunday following we saw cape horn up to this time we had been priding our selves upon he auspicious time we had happen ed lo come upon cape horn lhe most notori ous of all places upon the '* high seas for rough weather and conttary winds and the quick run we were going to have around it ; for we had then had delightful weather and tavora bio winds ever since we had been south ofthe la plata river ; and we were in hopes we had just hit upon the right time and lhat we should sail round and be out of danger of the " lion's jaws in one or two days instead ol being kept ihere five six and seven weeks as has some times been lhe case with other teessels but towards night mr cape horn the terror of all navigators discovered us and for e\pn days kept us almost completely at bay during the whole of his time the wind blew right in our teeth at a terrible rate and brought either rain hail or snow wiih il every day owing to this hard and continued blowing the size and power ofthe waves became perfectly appalling in fact thev ran so large and so high that every one looked like a little ocean of itself ; and not unfrequcritly would ihey sirike the ship wi'h such tremendous force that i thought she would be broken into atoms finally however by tacking turning and twisting about we suc ceeded in getting fairly around much to the gratification ol all and especially to the relief of our worn out seamen who had been up work ing wiih all their might day and night for a whole week while in thf neighborhood of the cape we saw thousands of albatrosses gulls petrels and ichthyophagous birds and by means of a fish hook tied to the end of a long line and baited with a piece of fat bacon which we le out some distance from the stern of the vessel we caught several of a species the sailor calied the cape hen : one of which i measured irom the tip of its right wing lo its left : it was seven feet across the albatross is about twice as large as this here too while in this latitude we have our fairest views of the great southern cross the magellon clouds dec constella tions of as much notoriety in th southern hem isphere as the pieiodes or beit of orion is in lhe northern finding our water was now beginning to give out and lhat we should have to procure a fresh supply before we could reach caltornia we began lo bend our course towards \ alparaiso on the second dav before we reached this place which wa on tuesday afternoon lhe blh of april we found ourselves close in upon the coast of chili s i city and harbor to which we were then bound : and as we pass ed along up ihe shore we had a magnificent view not onlv of it own high barren hill bul also ofthe lofty and towering heights ol the andes at the distance of one hundred and forty five miles in the interior to add to the grandeur of this spectacle on land another now present ed itself on ih a ocean aro'i-id as in ibe i r:n of great whales — he fir we had seen — we saw a great many of these hug cieatures lhal and the next div ad one of ihem cam 0 within two or three rod ol the s'ern of the hi and spouted the water with a noi*e something like ihat of a mississippi steamboat we had scarcely drawn in port and east an chor before we were surrounded with lilt ie boats filled with americans natives and for | t eigners who had come out as they said lo hear j from us and to see our ship from these men j we learned lhat four days previous to that time ! tbey bad bad a severe earthquake and that al j most every house in the city bad been more or less injured by it — a part completely destroyed and some persons killed it was also reported by some of them that it had laid a great por tion ol santiago the capitol in ruins : but as yet nodifiniie news had been received from any of the inland cities or towns and it wa not positively ascertained what its destroying ef fects had been in any other place save on.y in that late that evening about half an hour belore sun down wa nude our debut in lha city ;

WORCESTER — When President Barack Obama delivers Worcester Technical High School's commencement address on June 11, he will be highlighting a school that is almost unrecognizable compared to its industrial beginnings.
Created by local businessmen to prepare students not for a diploma but for work in metals manufacturing, textiles and abrasives, the school that was once Worcester Trade School is now one of the city's strongest public high schools. It is the kind of school where a welder earns the highest possible score on his Advanced Placement English language and composition exam and where the head of the National Honor Society is a former private school student who came to Worcester Tech to study biotechnology.
It is also the only one of the city's schools that has selective admissions, and it is so popular that in 2012, its acceptance rate was 47 percent for incoming freshmen.
It is home to the 2014 National High School Principal of the Year, Sheila M. Harrity, who had kept the news of the president's visit to herself for more than a week. Mr. Obama will speak to the class of 2014 at 4 p.m. June 11 at the DCU Center.
"It's the things you're doing day in, day out," Ms. Harrity told students. "I'm so proud."
Worcester Tech has evolved from a boys' trade school to a coed institution. Once spread over three buildings and two ZIP codes, the school reconfigured its academics when it moved to a $90 million new building in 2006. While walls don't create academic achievement, in this case, it was significant. To get better state reimbursement on the new building, the City Council voted to integrate the vocational school, which had been under the control of the city manager and its own board, with the rest of the school system.
"It just made no sense to have a superintendent and a School Committee and all of those resources and then a separate vocational school with none of those resources," said Raymond V. Mariano, who was mayor at the time.
The new school was created while the city had an $8 million, five-year grant from the Carnegie Corporation to restructure the city's high schools into smaller academies. Worcester Technical High School on Skyline Drive was built to fit that approach, with students' trades located near their academic classes.
"Our goal was to put new wine in the new wineskin," said former Superintendent James A. Caradonio, referring to the improved curriculum and new building. He credits school staff for not letting it fizzle out. As in a relay, he said, "the people that run the next legs have really been running as fast as the people who passed the baton."
Mr. Caradonio is now director of career/technical education at Dean Tech in Holyoke.
For the last quarter century, the school has also had the benefit of community support led by Edwin B. Coghlin Jr., currently the chairman of the school's 24 advisory boards. He has helped get equipment for the trades and connect the students with opportunities to use their craft.
He was in the school's auditorium Thursday when Sheila M. Harrity, principal since 2006 and 2014 National High School Principal of the Year, announced the president was coming.
"There was a whoop and a howl" from the students, he said.
Ms. Harrity pulled off the surprise announcement Thursday at a school assembly filled with unsuspecting students, staffers and longtime advocates. School Committee members said they were also unaware of the honor.
Members of the senior class were called to the auditorium for what Ms. Harrity had promised would be a "pleasant surprise" about graduation. The mood was festive as "Best Day of My Life" by American Authors blared as the 311-member senior class filed into the auditorium.
Once Ms. Harrity revealed the news, the students jumped to their feet, screaming with joy and exchanging high-fives — and texting parents and friends.
"I am so excited," said senior Melinda Blanchard. She said the vocational school has given her and other students so many opportunities.
"We've come a long way since we were freshmen. Now we're international news."
The DCU address will be the only high school commencement Mr. Obama makes this year, according to Ms. Harrity.
"Worcester Tech has made outstanding headway in boosting its graduation rate, implementing cutting-edge vocational programs and ensuring that all of its students have the opportunity to succeed," Keith Maley, a White House spokesman said in an email.
The graduation rate was 79.3 percent in 2006 and 95 percent in 2013, and it was named a National Blue Ribbon School in the fall.
Senior Shianne Delgado cried when she heard the president was coming.
"I'm still in shock," she said later.
Another senior, Michelle Snelling, said her heart was racing when she heard the news.
"I'm so pumped. I'm overwhelmed. For it to be the president is just so amazing," Ms. Snelling said. "I texted my mom, 'THE PRESIDENT IS COMING,' in all caps."
U.S. Rep. James P. McGovern, D-Worcester, said he and others have been bragging to the White House about Worcester Tech for years.
"What we have in Worcester is the very best in the country," Mr. McGovern said. "It's a big deal and very well-deserved. This is exciting for the school, and it's exciting for the country."
Last week, Arne Duncan, the U.S. secretary of education, made a visit.
Things will be hectic over the next two months but Ms. Harrity said the White House has been a pleasure to deal with in making arrangements.
Ms. Harrity said officials are already working with the Secret Service to make preparations for security. She said families are already accustomed to a limited number of graduation tickets. "I hope I can get my mom a ticket," Ms. Harrity said.
The last sitting president to visit Worcester was Bill Clinton, who spoke at the December 1999 memorial ceremony following the deaths of six firefighters in the Worcester Cold Storage and Warehouse Co. fire.
President Lyndon B. Johnson delivered the 1964 commencement address at the College of the Holy Cross.

One of the most enjoyable features of world travel is the opportunity to sample the cuisine of other countries and to join in the celebration of food, wine and companionship.

Coming together to eat and drink the bounty of the earth is an essential part of the human experience.

The Walrus Says
On May 18, Alice Dunn will graduate with high honors from the CCRI School of Nursing as a registered nurse.
That would not be an unusual statement, particularly this time of the year, except that Alice has achieved it by trekking to night courses in all types of weather for 13 years.
She also achieved something else. Something more important. She raised three sons the past 15 years on her own. Nathan, 21, is at New England Tech, Russell, 19, at URI, and Wyatt, 17, is a junior at North Kingstown High School.
With Mother's Day on Sunday, Alice gets our nod as the island's mother of the year.
During all those years her studies took her to hospitals throughout the state on weekends and Monday evenings. On other nights, for eight years, she waited tables at East Side Marios's in Newport and worked part-time at the Jamestown Early Learning Center. When she could, she drove her children around. "I did everything you have to do with kids," she said.
Eleven years ago she came to work at the Jamestown Press as business manager and is now general manager. Her desk at the paper looks out through the front door and up Clinton Avenue to where her home is located. "I could keep a good eye on the kids," she quipped, adding that they gave her little trouble and she sensed her children understood how tough it was to get by and helped her as much as possible as they grew older. She said the Press job gave her the flexibility to do all the things that she had to do with her children.
We asked if becoming a nurse had always been her dream? No, she replied laughing, and explained that when she started taking courses she was taking care of two separate elderly women. "One of them I was cooking for and helping her get settled nights. The other was a Saturday job that entailed being more or less a companion for the woman. I thought that taking a course would be a good thing to do if I were to continue in private duty."
Now 55, Alice came to Jamestown from New Hampshire when she was 2. Her father had opened Hammond Hardware, well-remembered by long-time residents.
In addition to her three sons, the well-known beagle, Rocket, now 15, and cats Billy and Daisy, both 12, share the Dunn home.
She told us that for the past 13 years "I did nothing but work, raise kids and study," so, we asked her what she was now going to do with the pressure off and all the spare time on her hands.
"I'm going on in the fall to the URI College of Nursing. My goal is to have my masters when I'm 60."

Jeff Hunter has joined other islanders, Martin Hellewell and Fred Pease as performers in the Tubaphonia Concert this Saturday, May 12, at 7:30 p.m. in the North Kingstown High School auditorium.
Jeff will play tuba, Martin the double-bell euphonium, and Fred the sousaphone. Martin is co-organizer of this free event that will be entitled "An Armed Forces Salute."
Musicians of all ages from the tri-state area will bring their low, conical brass horns including baritones and euphoniums, opheleids and helicons and tubas of all sizes.
Nationally renowned tubist and conducter Gary Buttery will again lead the talented assemblage.
Martin said the performance occurs one week before Armed Forces Day, "so we will parade the colors and salute our veterans and armed forces with patriotic tunes, melodies and anthems."
The concert will also feature a prelude to the Echo Taps Worldwide which starts at Flanders' Field, Belgium, at 11 a.m. (GMT) on May 19, (Armed Forces Day), and here in the U.S. at 11 a.m. (EDT), continuing westward by time zones.
At that ceremony at the Rhode Island Veteran's Cemetery in Exeter, islander Ed Kurtz will play taps on his trumpet and join the other three brass horn players from Jamestown.
Ed Gillis said he saw a coyote on Highland Drive "that was the size of a German sheperd."
I know a little bit about a lot of things, but...................
Heidi Lessard at The Secret Garden last Sunday said that with the weather forecast for a cold night it was the first time in the 10 years tshe has been there that she was going to have to bring the plants inside so late in the spring.
Must have something to do with that darn global warming.
*** Congratulations to three Jamestown youths who participated in the 2007 Newport YMCA Youth Triathlon April 28 and ended up first in their individual age groups, one of whom was the overall winner.
Noah Simmons was the first to complete the triathon. He competed in the 7- and 8-year-old boys group. In the 7- and 8-year-old girls competition Eliza Kallfelz was the first to finish in her class, as was Emily Kallfelz in the 9- and 10-year-old girls group.
The event consisted of a 2-mile bike ride, a 1-mile run, and a 100- yard swim.
Some 300 people consumed 74 pounds of pasta and 60 pounds of meatballs Saturday night and helped send the Boy Scouts of Troop 1 to camp this year.
It was the troop's annual Pasta Supper fund-raiser at St. Matthew's and the event's quartermaster, Maryann Toppa, said serving desserts and coffee outside this year was a big success.
Scoutmaster Dave Volpe set the troop members' assignments. Assisting chefs Jim Archibald and John Keavy in the kitchen were scouts Drew Matley, John Chase, Sal Morenzi and Nathaniel Hopkins. Hosts were Brian Volpe and Kyle Wright. Dylan Walsh oversaw the dinner traffic and Michael Brendlinger was in charge of the desserts. Headwaiters were Shane Farrelly, Chris Waterman, Eric Archibald and Cam Toppa assisted by waiters Daniel Bailey, Nick Lutes, Hayden Maclean, Josh Nolan, Evin Barrett, Nick Dalton, Sam DiGaspar, Nick Hanson, Patrick Bretti, Nick Fay, Vaughn Nelson-Lee, James Perry, Jack Tregenza, Jamie Mielde, Colin Toth and Bud Oldewurtel.
The Dutra Farm donated the Rhody Fresh milk and McQuade's contributed all the pasta.
Great job, guys!!

"People are welcome to join the Art Association and attend," she added.
For additional information call Jocelyn Donaghue at 423-3297.
Keep your pets cool, says Dr. Joshua Hatch of the Jamestown Animal Clinic in his Pet Tip of the Week.
"As our pets and we are spending more time outdoors, make sure to take adequate precautions to avoid heat and sun-related injuries. Make sure pets have access to shade and clean water at all times. Monitor pets for signs of heat stress including excessive panting, weakness, or disorientation and contact your veterinarian immediately if you notice any of those signs.
"Be especially careful with older animals and with short-faced dogs like pugs and bulldogs that tend to have more breathing issues normally. Exercise your pets n the morning or evening and avoid the mid-day heat as much as possible. And finally, shaving a long-haired dog may help them stay cool, but it can also lead to increased risk of sunburned skin so be careful about how much time they spend in direct sunlight after they have been shaved."
Don't forget the giant yard sale at the Jamestown School on Melrose Avenue, Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to noon to benefit 10-year-old Payton Watson who is being treated for leukemia.
Come early, it's going to be a biggy.
Isn't it just a little over the top closing a school down for a week because of a broken thermometer?
My mom used to drop and break them regularly.
Things must be slow at the DEM.
Sunday is Mother's Day. Get those reservations in, or else!
Tuesday is Peace Officers' Memorial Day.
Be true!!
