Week Burdens Students
Founder's Week is one of the high points each year in activities
at Bethel.
Besides inspiring, awakening, and instructing the visitors that come
to Bethel, the week strengthens the unity of our conference; it intro-duces
Bethel and its purposes to the church representatives; it provides
an opportunity for our seminarians to get acquainted with conference
leaders and work; and it promotes Bethel in the eyes of the church
The week is appreciated by the students generally for its signifi-cant
religious emphasis and for the chances to talk with their pastors
and friends who come.
NEVERTHELESS, THE WEEK seems to place a considerable bur-den
on the school and particularly on the student. The student's academic
life suffers because there doesn't seem to be any consistent policy as
far as classes are concerned. Students desire to attend the sessions but
often can't when classes conflict.
They must choose between the two and often ohoose the former.
Classes, therefore, are generally smaller, resulting in poorer class
hours. When many students are missing the instructor tends to become
uninspired. Yet, the other student, for all the benefit received at the
session, is still responsible for the class.
IN SOME CLASSES strict attendance is taken and in others tests
are given. Some classes are dismissed for the sessions and others for
apparently no reason at all. The overlap of schedules causes many stu-dents
to be late for class. Because of the meetings, the inconveniences,
and extra burdens placed on some students studies suffer greatly.
The week places great burdens on the student services. The dining
hall, coffee shop, and dormitory are overly crowded. Students working
in these places and those on the custodial staff often double their hours,
but still don't do enough to keep everyone happy.
The administrative offices for this week are so taken up with
planning and providing for the visitors that normal functions cannot
be carried on fully.
IT IS NOT ENOUGH to say that the responsibility is with the stu-dent
to discipline himself better. It seems necessary in this case for
reorganization to come from above. Perhaps the week could be held
between semesters when there would be no classes. To dismiss all classes
for a week might jeopardize our academic standing, but a consistent,
considerate policy should be adopted if they are held.
Perhaps additional help can be employed to alleviate campus ser-vice
problems and a little more cooperation secured from the students
and visitors in making the best of a worthy project.

He has a beautiful ship
And sails it where he pleases
Around the world he goes.
No one impedes his progress
To no man need he bow
He travels unhindered
In his journeys, once, he came
On an unusual phenomenon—
A huge rock in the sea.
A barren rock it was and flat.
He steered quite close to look
And saw three humans there.
They cried for help. He heard their
He waved to them a cheery hand
And sailed on.

A Difference
Was Expected
"Bethel just isn't what I expected it to be," a
friend said to me.
"And just what did you expect?" I sighed,
weary of that age-old remark.
"I don't know—I guess I expected a new Chris-tian
experience. I think I expected to find everyone
happy and rejoicing in the love of God. It just
hasn't been like that."
"WHAT YOU REALLY mean is that you ex-pected
it to be perfect here—and it isn't. So you're
more than a little disappointed and disillusioned,"
I replied, smug in my penetrating analysis of the
"No, I didn't expect it to be perfect," my friend
said quietly. "I expected there to be a few at Bethel
who weren't particularly interested in the college
as 'a campus of Christian scholarship'. I just didn't
think I'd find so many—that's what's disappointing.
There are a lot of kids here who could be doing so
much more for the Lord."
"I THINK YOU'RE being unfair," I replied a
little hotly. "You've met a few kids who don't ap-pear
to you to be setting an example, so you've begun
to think of all of us as half-hearted Christians.
There are some kids here who are really intense
in their desire to serve God."
"I'm glad you said 'some kids' instead of 'most
of the kids'," my friend said calmly. "There are
some pretty wonderful people here on Bethel cam-pus,
and I'm very thankful for the opportunity to
know them. But you see, there are so many more
here who just don't care —.
"I'VE HEARD THEM in the dorm berating a
less sophisticated classmate. I've heard them in the
classroom scoffing at a sincere and well-meaning
instructor. I've watched them make chapel services
the social peak in their day, and I've listened to
them turn petty grievances into injustices of gigan-tic
My friend paused, waiting for my next remark.
I had nothing to say.
I turned away wondering just how disappoint-ing
my friend must be in me.
Something To
Think On by L. Van Heerden
"Never apologize for being a man. Just be
ashamed of your sin."
A. W. Tozer
More than one Founder's Week speaker alluded to
the "dignity of man". There seemed to be a renewed
emphasis, particularly on the part of Dr. Tozer,
to the effect that man is God's prize creation and
should never be the object of scorn or ridicule.
THIS IDEA OPENS up one of the many para-doxes
of Scripture for we read repeatedly that man
is a corrupted rebel. He is a slave to sin and under
the sentence of death. "The heart of man is des-perately
wicked" says the Old Testament sage. Paul
concurs with many a devastating thrust at the sup-posed
"goodness of man".
It is vitally important to maintain both these
Biblical concepts. Their seeming opposition to each
other can be reasonably reconciled by injecting the
story of the Fall of Man. We need to remember
that man has fallen away from a position and
nature of lofty excellence. He was made in God's
image—the object of special creative concern. God
crowned Creation with his best idea—Man!
BUT MORAL FREEDOM left the door open
for rebellion and slavery. Man fell and lost his high
estate. Yet something of the "image of God" re-mained.
There was not a total destruction of that
image. But corruption did set in which affected
man totally.
Man is still God's gem. He is capable of the
worst kind of debauchery as he yields to the prin-ciple
of sin within. But so is he able, through
Redemption, to become somewhat like God. The
possibility is always there. Man is wonderfully
made. No other part of creation has the creative
scope of man. Once liberated from the domination
of sin man can climb to great heights of God-likeness.
"The trouble-maker is ultimately not man, but
sin!" Anon.

Working of God
Is Considered
by John Decosse
Jingoes amuse me; especially that particular
specie, the jingo religioso, who insists that there
is a greater power than us that leads our nation
ever on to glory —a power that will not stand back
and see us crushed beneath the foeman's foot. This
peculiar group agrues about the reality of an in-visible
hand that guides us on our national way.
ANOTHER SPECIE under the classification
homo sapiens ecclesiastes chauvinisticus, namely the
religium extra-nationalisticae, would have us believe
that America merits God's gracious bestowment of
amber waves of grain as due remuneration for its
real democracy and true way of life. They would
have us believe too that in acknowledging God while
talking to a flag, or in bringing out a new mint
series of paper currency an old and faithful saying
affirming our trust in God, we rank foremost in
God's sight.
Pish! (Shakesperean terminology connoting dis-approval.)
I READ with some amusement a quote from
the last issue of this publication—a quote by a speci-men
of the last of the above mentioned groups —
"The surprising thing is that God even blesses the
Chinese Christians who criticize America"! Cer-tainly
Gad went out of His way to endow these
delinquent people with His blessing.
Pish, posh! (Shakesperean terminology connot-ing
disapproval two times.)
In thinking about America as an entity (in-cluding
Americans as a collective group), let us
keep one thing in mind — God does not owe us
one political thing.

• Meals Give Problems
Dear Editor:
I've been -having trouble with meals lately. The
other day I went down to breakfast. I was feeling
rather tired and I felt a cold coming on so I decided
that instead of the roll which I usually took I would
have an extra helping of vitamin C in the form of
an orange. With a glass of juice, a dish of cereal
and the orange I started for the table.
"Just a minute—you can't have an orange and
juice too—even if you have no roll."
RATHER PERTURBED I went down to dinner
to find that on the menu was a choice of chow mein
or potato salad. Now I have nothing against Chinese
food—despite the Asiatic flu—and potato salad is
fine—in the summer. But today I felt more like hav-ing
merely the rice. I saw no reason to waste my
helping of chow mein so I told the girl "Just rice,
She gave me an odd look.
"Sorry, it's not allowed. You can't substitute
a main dish."
It seems such a pity to waste all that chow
mein just for a little rice.
THEN I WENT to supper. For dessert there
was a rich, whipped-cream-topped crumb apple dish
and for salad there was a wedge of lettuce covered
with salad dressing which I never eat. But I might
as well have a couple apples—one for dessert and
one for study hour. After all, hadn't I paid for my
meal ticket? I had it coming. I started out of the
line headed for the table.
A hand grasped the collar of my jacket slopping
my milk over my bread.
"Put that other apple back. No substitutes you
know. Besides, you haven't had your leafy green
vegetable for today."
Oh well, guess it's for some good cause.
The hungry one.

Les Borms (22) hits for 2 points with a lay-up shot in the game
against Northwestern.
,JtqUir$ ,TOTTIN6 "In like a lion and out like a lamb" is probably more descriptive of
Bethel's cage team than of the month of March. Anyone who saw last
Saturday's game will agree. The Royals won 14 of their first 17 games,
then only three of their last seven and finished the season in their
worst game all year.
THE ANSWER to this collapse is undoubtedly the plague of indivi-dual
player losses. When the team lost Pommerenke and Young the
bench was nearly sufficient to overcome the loss. But with Knoner and
Lindaman out also, the team was never the same.
Nevertheless, the Royals had brighter spots too. Their 12-1 record
on the home floor was outstanding, the 10-2 league record was certainly
nothing to be ashamed of, and the 17-7 overall mark was the best Bethel
record in five years. Besides this, one year of league play showed that
Bethel could boast of the best gym and facilities in the BGC.
INDIVIDUALLY, Terry Bottenfield was the most consistent player
and should be in line for the MVP award. Through the course of the
season, Turnquist became the most improved, Lindaman the biggest sur-prise,
and Graham the most determined. Borms went by streaks, and big
Don Becker was the man in the key who held the team together.
ALMOST AS AN ANTICLIMAX to the Bethel-NW game last
Thursday, Bethel's female hoopsters dropped a 50-48 contest to NW's
girl squad some three hours later on the winners court. Junker garnered
29 points, and together with Russell and Lindstrom accounted for all
but two of Bethel's total.
CERTAINLY ONE OF THE REASONS the Yankees keep winning
pennants is financial. General manager George Weiss announced last
week that the 1958 Yank payroll would be the largest in baseball history.
If the estimated $600,000 payroll is correct, this means Yankee players
will average over $20,000 each . . .
Overheard in the lunch line: There is a new sport on campus called
Beard and Scissors. Action is slated to begin soon with Roger Purcell
and Art Coombes in defense against a rapidly enlarging mob.

Bethel Squeaks By
Northwestern 63-59
Season Ends
As Falcons
Dump Royals
River Falls Falcons dealt under-manned
Bethel their most humili-ating
defeat in two years as they
racked the Royals 79-38 on the
Hudson Wis. high school floor last
Saturday. It was the last game of
the season for the Royals.
Trailing the entire game,
the Royals were out of contention
after ten minutes of play. Thanks
to three fast field goals by sub Bud
Jones, they pulled within reach at
21-17. But Peterson's men• would
only hit five more points before
halftime, while the Falcons poured
in 20 for a 41-23 margin midway.
THE SECOND HALF was even
worse for Bethel. Bottenfield's two-pointer
coming after five minutes
of play accounted for the first
tallies for Bethel. Their second
half scoring consisted of only six
field goals and three free throws,
while River Falls meshed the nets
for 38 points.
Bethel sorely missed Lindaman
and Borrns, and nearly every Royal
eager had his worst evening of
the year. Bottenfield's ten points
were enough to make him high
scorer. A total of 23 fouls charac-terized
the blue and gold play.
RIVER FALLS, in contrast,
.played one of their best games. A
definite height advantage, high
shooting accuracy, and a tight
man-to-man defense that constant-ly
broke up the Royal attack, were
more than enough to overpower
the faltering Bethel crew. Mick
Lauber led 13 Falcon scorers with
20 points.
The defeat left Bethel a final
17-7 season record. The Royals
tipped the Falcons earlier this
year 56-52 on the home court.

The Northland Lumberjacks
pulled their second BGC upset of
the season as they dropped league-
;leading Bethel, 62-57 on their
home court Feb. 15.
The contest was close all forty
minutes with the score tied six
times in the first half. The Royals
trailed midway 32-30. With eight
minutes remaining and the score
knotted 42-42, Northland moved
into a five point lead which it
never lost.
Turnquist collected 17 points
and Bottenfield 16 for the Royals.
Bill Arsten dropped in 17 for the
winners and teammate Nick By-strom
hit for 16. Regular starter
Byron Lindaman missed the game
due to illness.
The loss was the second Badger-
Gopher defeat for the Royals
against nine victories. Bethel had
previously notched a 62-38 triumph
over the Lumberjacks on the home
court last month. Northland had
upset previously unbeaten Milton
to enable the Royals to move into
first place in the BGC.
B Team Plays
Last Contest
With Eagles
The Bethel "B" cagers will play
their last game of the season
tonight in the playoffs of the
Independent college conference
held at Northwestern.
The little Royals entered the
tourney after topping the North-western
"B" club last Friday 90-
71. Chuck Nye hit 21 points; Jones,
Peterson, and Carlson hit 19, 18,
and 14 respectively. In their first
game in the playoff, Healy's men
met Mt. Olive last Tuesday.
In regular season play, the B
team shared a third place tie with
the agricultural school with a 6-4
mark. In recent tilts they defeat-ed
Minnesota school of business
72-62 as Dan Nelson scored 35
points and split two games with the
Ag school.

Royal Cagers
Upset In BGC
By Northland
Bethel slipped by lowly Northwestern of Minneapolis 63-59 last
Thursday in their poorest home performance of the season. The victory,
witnessed by a full house in the annual Founders Week game, concluded
Bethel's BOO schedule and gave the Royals a 10-2 league record.
EFFECTIVE REBOUNDING by
Becker and Turnquist kept Bethel
in the game in the first half as the
Royals shooting and playing per-formance
hit a new low. Except
for Van Dixlhorn Northwestern
could do little better.
The Eagles finally managed to
take a six point advantage 27-21
with three minutes remaining in
the half. Successive baskets by
Becker, Bottenfield, and Turnquist
tied the game before Van Dixhorn
put the Minneapolis five ahead
midway 30-27.
The lead changed hands ten
times in the last half before the
home club pulled ahead 61-53 with
three minutes left. Four free
throws and a two-pointer by Bragg
brought the charging Eagles with-in
two points 61-59 with the clock
showing 15 seconds. But Becker's
two charity tosses made it a Royal
victory 63-59.
JOHN VAN DIXHORN had to
do everything for the Eagles—
shooting, rebounding, and play-making—
as his 26 points paced
Northwestern in their near upset.
Wasteful substituting for unknown
reasons hurt Bethel as Borms and
Bottenfield sat out most of the
second half. The absence of Byron
'Lindeman and his spirited offen-sive
drive also hampered the Royal
attack. Turnquist turned in his
best performance as he played con-sistent
ball and bucketed 24 tallies.
In recognition of his retirement Mr. Engwall was given a projector
by the board of education at the Founders Week banquet.

NSA is the only national repre-sentative
of American students in

told at the winter regional con-ference
of the National Student
Association Feb. 14-16 at Concor-dia
college in Moorhead, Minn.
Janet Lindquist, Gerry Wilber,
Bryan Harris, and Evan Rogefs
represented Bethel at the conven-tion.
Three areas—international stu-dent
relations, foreign student af-fairs,
and academic freedom--were
considered in separate seminars.
The importance of NSA in coun-tries
throughout the world was dis-cussed
in the international student
relations seminar which was at-tended
by Evan Rogers. NSA meets
with other national student unions
which influence the politics of their
countries. Some of these organiza-tions
are sympathetic to the Sovi-et

Preview French
Art Tomorrow
Mr. Eugene Johnson, assistant
professor of art, and members of
his classes and the art club will
attend, by special invitation, a pre-view
showing of 40 modern French
masterprieces from the permanent
collection of the Musae National
d'Art Moderne at Walker Art
Center tomorrow evening.
The program will begin at 8
p.m. with an illustrated talk by
Jerome Mellquist, internationally
known critic of modern art, on
"School of Parish, 1958". Mr. Mell-quist
is now a resident in Paris
and writes extensively for Euro-pean
and American art journals.
The exhibition will open at 9
p.m. with Edouard Morot-Sir, cul-tural
counselor to the French Em-bassy
and representative in the
United States of French universi-ties,
United States.
N SA has representatives
throughout the world which, among
other duties, screen students for
the exchange programs.
To promote better international
relations, NSA sponsors travel pro-grams
and exchanges of student
leaders, Evan said.
Problems facing foreign students
coming to American schools were
discussed in the foreign student
affairs seminar which Janet Lind-quist
and Bryan Harris attended.
Real life situations were presented
to the group which divided into
smaller groups to discuss the prob-lems.
Solutions decided upon by
these groups were discussed and
criticized at full seminar sessions.
Bryan said that he was im-pressed
by the interaction produc-ing
harmony and understanding
among colleges of such varied
backgrounds in dealing with com-mon
Religious schools have less aca-demic
freedom than other schools,
Gerry Wilber cited as one of the
(conclusions of the seminar on
academic freedom.
American students do not use
the academic freedom they al-ready
p assess was another con-clusion
of the group, she added.
Topics for discussion included
academic freedom in relation to the
student and teacher in the class-room
situation, academic freedom
in relation to the goals of educa-tion,
and academic freedom in re-lation
to society outside the col-lege.
NSA is attempting to make stu-dents
aware of the academic free-dom
they have—•n some schools by
setting up academic freedom weeks
��and to use it, Gerry said.
"I found this conference an ex-tremely
valuable learning experi-ence,
especially in becoming aware
of the scope of student organi-zations,"
Evan said.
Evan received a subsidy from
NSA covering part of the cost of
the weekend for writing an essay
about Why he wanted to attend.

than one person today is better be-cause
of Mr. Engwall's unerring
knowledge of the human mind and
practice of Christian love.
Professor Engwall's experience
with people dates back to the 26
years of ministry in Illinois and
California before coming to Bethel
in 1944. Since beginning at Bethel
he has taught courses ranging
from georaphy to Christian Phil-osophy.
INTENDING originally to be
a doctor, he took three years
of pre-medical training at the Uni-versity
of Chicago. But the strain
of working his way trough schc•l
holding many different jobs that
required long hours caused his
health to break. He left pre med
school and went to California.
There he continued his education
at the University of California and
did his post graduate work at the
University of Minnesota.
NEXT SUMMER the Engwalls
plan to travel to Germany to visit
their daughter and to renew ac-qaintances
in Mr. Engwall's native
country, Sweden.
Mr. Engwall's career as a pro-fessor
at Bethel may be drawing
to a close but the impression he
has made and the inspiration he
has given shall endure.

Monster bass on the feed
A Valentine's Day surprise came a little early for Falcon Lake angler Isaac Denson. Feb. 7, he was fishing in about 3 feet of water when he got the bite of a lifetime, one that turned out to be the heaviest bass he's ever caught – she weighed 13.4 pounds and measured 26.5 inches in length.
Falcon, located on the Texas/Mexico border, is one of the hottest big bass lakes in the nation right now. The water is typically a lot warmer in that region of Texas, and that's why the bass are spawning there right now.
One reason Falcon is such a prime target for anglers in the hunt for double-digit bass is because it gets very little fishing pressure, as compared to lakes likes Sam Rayburn, Toledo Bend and Conroe. It's definitely a long haul from Southeast Texas, but well worth the run if you want some guaranteed big bass adventure. To win a bass tournament at Falcon, it often takes a 5 to 6 pound average.
On the Texas side of the lake, all species of fish are managed under current statewide regulations. For recreational anglers fishing Mexican waters, a Mexico fishing license is required for everyone in the boat. Mexico boat permits are no longer required. For information on Mexico's fishing regulations, visit the National Aquaculture and Fishing Commission (CONAPESCA) website. Lake maps are available from the Zapata Chamber of Commerce and at Falcon State Park.
Mexico licenses can be purchased in Zapata at Robert's Fish N' Tackle (2425 S. Highway 83, 956-765-1442) or from Falcon Lake Tackle (2195 S. Highway 83, 956-765-4866.) Several fishing guides work on Falcon. A list is available from the Zapata Chamber of Commerce.
This is the fifth entry of the season into the Toyota ShareLunker program, which only accepts 13-pound plus bass. So far this season, entries have come from Lake Austin, Fork (two entries) and Dunlap.
"The heaviest entry of the season to date is Richard Scibek's 16.04-pounder caught from Lake Fork on Feb. 2," said Larry Hodge, with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. "The angler who catches the largest entry of the season is named Angler of the Year and receives a prize package from G. Loomis consisting of a G. Loomis GLX854C jig and worm rod, a Shimano Chronarch 200E7 casting reel and a spool of Power Pro super-braid fishing line. If the Angler of the Year is a Texas resident, he or she also receives a lifetime fishing license."
Here's how it all works. Anyone legally catching a 13-pound or heavier largemouth bass from Texas waters, public or private, between Oct. 1 and April 30 may submit the fish to the Toyota ShareLunker program by calling the ShareLunker hotline at (903) 681-0550 or paging (888) 784-0600 and leaving a phone number including area code. Fish will be picked up by TPWD personnel within 12 hours.
LU students set for college FLW tourney on T-Bend
FLW College Fishing is headed to Toledo Bend on Feb. 16 for the second of four stops in the Southern Conference. Fifty college teams will be competing for a top award of $2,000 and a berth in the Southern Conference Invitational tournament.
"In my opinion, it is the best tournament lake in the country," said pro Jim Tutt of Longview. "There are a lot of ways you can catch them, and there are a ton of healthy fish. On Toledo you can fish any type of water that you like to fish. You can go shallow, you can go deep, you can fish wood or you can fish grass.
"It will be a definite pre-spawn tournament," said Tutt. "Depending on how warm the water gets there might be a few spawners here and there, but the majority of the fish will be pre-spawn. The way the hydrilla is setting up has made reaction-style baits hot. My advice to college anglers would consist of three things: Rat-L-Traps, Rat-L-Traps and Rat-L-Traps."
Tutt thinks the only thing that could keep this event from being a great tournament would be a strong north wind. Tutt said this can wreak havoc on Toledo Bend by dirtying the waters and making boat control a nightmare for even the most experienced anglers. He estimates the winning team will bring more than 20 pounds to the scales.
Anglers will take off from Paradise Point Park in Hemphill. Weigh-in will be held at the park beginning at 1:30 p.m. Takeoff and weigh-in are free and open to the public.
Representing Lamar University are Justin Ridgaway from Nederland, Josh Bowie and Robert Parks of Port Neches and Brandon Simoneaux from Bridge City.
Robert Sloan can be reached by e-mail at sloan288 [at] aol [dot] com.

Doolittle Raiders to meet for final reunion 'to close this mission'
Northwest Florida Daily News, Fort Walton Beach
Published: February 1, 2013
The group of 80 men made famous by their April 18, 1942, bombing on Tokyo that lifted American morale during World War II is down to five living members.
"It was a very emotional decision to make," said Tom Casey, business manager for the Doolittle Tokyo Raiders. "I think this was one of the toughest things I've ever done."
The Raiders trained at then Eglin Field with Lt. Col. James H. "Jimmy" Doolittle, who led the 16 Army B-25 bombers off the deck of the Navy aircraft carrier to bomb five major Japanese cities.
The four active Raiders decided last October that this year would be their final reunion. The decision was announced Friday.
"Looking at their health and that this is where they trained for the mission, we thought this would be fitting for the final public reunion," Casey said.
The reunion being organized by the Greater Fort Walton Beach Chamber of Commerce April 16-21 will be a "Farewell Tribute." Last year's event in Dayton, Ohio, sold out in three hours, and this year's event is looking to be just as popular.
The men have met yearly since 1946 to celebrate their camaraderie and the success in their mission.
"There was such companionship between the 80 men who started out together," Casey said. "Because of the type of mission they took on there was a lot of teamwork involved.
"That was a mission they weren't sure they'd come back from."
The four active Raiders range from 92 to 97 years old.
They will open a bottle of cognac made the year Jimmy Doolittle was born. They originally had planned to pass the bottle on to the last two survivors, but changed their minds.
"Instead of waiting for the final two, we decided to call it a day," Casey said. "They agreed that they should do this last one and that they can all enjoy that final toast.
"We're going to close this mission."

Engagement Food and New Blog
I haven't been around here for quite a long time.. I wasn't that busy to write anything, though. I just couldn't decide about the blog's future. As I wrote before, I was thinking about opening a Turkish food blog with an emphasis on healthy eating, but couldn't find a proper name for the blog (or couldn't find any empty domains for candidate names). Then, after waiting endlessly for an idea to pop into my mind in bathroom or before I sleep (where creative ideas usually come to me) I decided to stop trying to be always creative and perfect, and just open the Turkish blog under kitchenimpromptu domain. So, for Turkish readers, my new blog is tr.kitchenimpromptu.com, until I find a better name.
Other than my new blog, a lot of things and a lot of cooking happened in the last couple of weeks. My cousin got engaged, and most of the food served was homemade by us! My contributions were: hummus, spinach strawberry salad, sweet and salty avocado dressing from Choosing Raw (killer!), strawberry lemonade soda adapted from here (also killer!), chocolate barks, homemade bounties, chocolate covered peanut butter and chocolate covered fudge babies. And a cute cheese plate!

Australian duo The Presets are part of a wave of dance acts coming to Britain from their homeland at present – alongside the likes of Midnight Juggernauts and Cut Copy, Kim Moyes and Julian Hamilton are proving to us Brits that there's some truly silky floor-filling sounds bubbling upwards from the undergrounds of their hometown Sydney, Melbourne and more.
The pair's latest album, their second after 2005's well-received Beams, is Apocalyso (via Modular, review). It might've taken a mild kicking on DiS – not every writer shares the opinions of others around these parts – but that didn't prevent it going to number one on the Australian albums chart. Singles 'My People' and 'This Boy's In Love' have showcased The Presets' fondness for the savvy of the Pet Shop Boys and their '80s synth-pop peers, and the blistering beats of mid-'90s titans like The Prodigy and The Chemical Brothers. Like all three, Hamilton and Moyes have worked their live set into a must-see – you can catch them at a number of festivals this summer, details below.
DiS got Hamilton on the phone hours before a headline slot at London's Scala to catch up with developments in The Presets' world.

Hey Julian. I see you played Glastonbury the weekend just gone – how was that?
It was a lot of fun, actually. It was really quite civilised. We'd never played Glastonbury before, but we'd seen pictures of all the mud. But it was okay, and a lot more chilled out than a lot of other festivals we've played at.
I see you've plenty forthcoming, including Wild in the Country, which has just been cancelled… don't know if you knew that.
Yeah, we only just found out. That's a bummer.
How do you find festivals in general? Your music sounds, to me, like the sort of thing that'd get a tent pumping.
It's that thing where it's more of a challenge, because when you do your own club dates you're playing to your crowd, but at a festival that's not always the case. It's fun to try to win people over, and to turn a crowd around.
And do you get the chance to mill about much, or do you generally hang around backstage?
Oh man, I usually can't stand hanging around backstage. Sometimes it's nice to catch up with friends there, but otherwise I go out and check out other bands. There's rarely anything interesting going on backstage.
The new album was written and recorded after a great deal of touring – do you think it's a better representation of yourselves as a live force than the debut?
It is, yeah. For the first one, we hadn't played much live, and we were sort of just making things up as we went along in that sense. Now we're taking more time over, and paying more attention to the live show. Older songs are finding new forms, and even tracks from the new record are changing live, as we develop the set. There's a terrible type of live dance show, where you just get guys stood behind laptops. That's not fun for anybody, so we're definitely not like that.
And when you started, was there any plan to take your music on tour, or was it more of a studio-based project?
It's quite insane to be touring to some of the places we are now, for sure. We're very lucky to be sharing bills with some of the great bands who've inspired us – like The Chemical Brothers – who were in some way responsible, perhaps, for acts like ourselves having the motivation to take our music out into the live environment. I remember seeing their show and being amazed, by the music and the visual element of it. The only problem with touring like we do is excess baggage fees. You can really get stung by them, and it's not like we can't take planes when we're touring back home – touring the UK is easy in a van, and the States can be done, but in Australia every city you can play in is a long way from the next. There are maybe only ten places that you'll play on an Australian tour.
- - -
It seems you're touring at a pretty good time for the type of music you play, especially given the rise to prominence of the likes of your countrymen, Midnight Juggernauts and Cut Copy.
Yeah, it's great. They're friends, and it's wonderful to see them reaching new audiences.
And do you have a break coming up? Seems you're free after T in the Park…
Well, it's like my mum calls me and says we've a break coming up, but those seven or eight days will get eaten up by travelling. We'll only be off for a couple of days, really, before playing in Australia at the end of July and then pretty much touring 'til the end of the year. We'll probably get a break at Christmas… hopefully.
Was Apocalypso getting to number one back home a surprise to you, or did you expect it in any way?
It was a total surprise – we hoped it'd do well, given the growth of our audience, but we didn't think for a second it might go to number one. And now Cut Copy's new album's gone to number one there, too, so that's brilliant. It really wasn't that long ago we were playing to a hundred people – we might now be able to play to thousands upon thousands at these big festivals, but the progression has been very gradual. We've not suddenly peaked in a popularity sense – it's been a slow and steady growth for us. It's nice when we go home now, after touring abroad – it's like we're a sports team or something, and we've done well, as suddenly people in Australia will have a new, or different, sort of respect for us. I think we do them proud. Our fans back home are great.
As a two-piece, do you and Kim ever get under each other's skin?
We can do. The moment I realised we were 'making it', actually, was when he and I first got individual hotel rooms. That was really special – we spend so much time together, in the studio and on stage, on buses and aeroplanes, that it is nice to have a little breathing space once in a while. We're like family, and he's great – we spend more time together than we do with our partners – but it's good to be apart a little, too! It must be okay if you're a five-piece band – one day you can lunch with your drummer, the next day have dinner with your bassist – but Kim and I do everything together.
Just before I leave you to the rest of your day, what can a Presets virgin expect from your show if they catch you this summer?
Expect plenty of energy, and a greater boisterousness than what's evident on the records – we really try to switch things up. We're definitely looking to get our audience involved, to get them really into the music – generally, our audience goes mad, so hopefully newcomers will get sucked into that and become a part of the fun.

Welch's 16 points, 5 blocks lift No. 6 South Carolina to 67-49 win over Arkansas
- Image 1 of 2
- Image 2 of 2
COLUMBIA, S.C. – Aleighsa Welch scored 16 points and had a career-best five blocks to lead No. 6 South Carolina to its sixth straight victory with a 67-49 win over Arkansas on Sunday.
The Gamecocks (22-2, 10-1) maintained their hold on first place in the Southeastern Conference.
Arkansas (16-8, 3-8) did its best to pack in the middle and disrupt South Carolina's game plan of feeding the 6-foot Welch and 6-4 forwards Elem Ibiam and Alaina Coates underneath. But Ibiam and Coates both added 10 points each while the trio of low-post players combined for 21 rebounds.
South Carolina also turned up its defense against the Razorbacks, holding them to under 30 percent shooting for a second time this season. Arkansas leading scorer Jessica Jackson was held to half her 16.6 point-a-game average with eight points on 1-of-12 shooting.
Tiffany Mitchell added 15 points for South Carolina.

The Orioles continued to use the home run to their advantage Friday night, erasing a two-run deficit and building a five-run lead in their 8-5 win over the Toronto Blue Jays.
The Orioles three All-Star starters — first baseman Chris Davis, center fielder Adam Jones and shortstop J.J. Hardy — each hit home runs with runners on base.
"They've just been solid as people, too," manager Buck Showalter said. "They post up and they're in a good routine. Same way with Nick [Markakis] and Manny [Machado] and Matt [Wieters]. They're a force of consistency for us."
Davis went the other way in the second inning for a two-run shot that scraped over the left field wall to the game at 2-2. Jones followed up the next inning, pulling a low 2-2 pitch into the left field stands for a three-run blast that put the Orioles up 5-3. Hardy put the game seemingly out of reach with a three-run homer of his own in the sixth to make it 8-3.
"That was huge," Davis said of Hardy's home run. "Anytime you can give your pitcher a little bit of room to work, the bullpen doesn't have to be on pins and needles the whole game, it's big for everybody."
It was the 17th time this season the Orioles have homered at least three times in a game, tied for the most in the majors with the Atlanta Braves, and it was the 35th time they had a multi-home run game, which trails only Toronto (38 multi-home run games).
"It definitely helps," said right-hander Chris Tillman, who picked up his 11th win of the season. "These guys grind out at bats all ballgame long every day. It's fun to watch. I've said it a hundred times. The quicker you get these guys back in the dugout and in the batter's box, the more is going to happen. I can't say enough about these guys. They go out there and go hard every day."
The Orioles have hit 128 home runs this season, the best in the major leagues. Toronto is second with 114. The Blue Jays got a two-run home run from catcher J.P. Arencibia in the second to take a 2-0 lead, and then a solo shot from first baseman Edwin Encarnacion to take a 3-2 lead.
Hardy's home run plated his 500th career RBI, and he ended a 19-game homerless streak. It was his longest streak since going 19 games without a home run between Sept. 10, 2010 and April 9, 2011. His last home run before Friday also came against Toronto in a 7-6 loss at the Blue Jays on June 21.
The three home runs against Toronto were the second-most home runs the Orioles have hit in a game so far this year. They hit four against Washington on May 29.

Washington Nationals 2012 Offseason Recap and Preview
I think the story of the Nationals' 2011 season could very well be one person:
Michael Morse. Now he might not be that much of a household name, but as a person that went to Nationals Park pretty frequently last season I can say the dude is a monster. Just look at his spray chart,
For that reason he was a bittersweet person to have in the cage during bp. You knew he was going to hit the ball a ways, but deciding whether to play him as a lefty or a righty was a whole other frustrating deal.
Grade: B
Notable Additions:
Gio Gonzalez, Mike Cameron, Mark DeRosa, Chad Durbin, Edwin Jackson, Brad Lidge, and Ryan Perry.
Notable Subtractions:
Laynce Nix, Collin Balester, Todd Coffey, Alex Cora, Jonny Gomes, Livan Hernandez, Tom Milone, and Brad Peacock.
Why?: With this past offseason, it may seem like the Nationals did really well. Maybe it's just that I've been around the Nationals so much, but it seems to me that they lost a bunch of players that, yes, were not starters, but they are just below that cusp. Mind you, a B is still improving the team a bit, but I think most everyone christened their ship to a much improved season because of the additions. For me, they will improve if those that were already in the organization improve, because I am a little bit skeptical about whether Gio Gonzalez can stay healthy after building up such an innings count for the first time.
All that said, it still can be a great season in that the talent on the team surpasses the record they had last year if they can just *solidify* their rotation. I'm not talking about making it a strength of the team, but if they can just not lose games because of their starters, their lineup could win them 85 games. I kid you not, the only offensively deficient spot in that lineup is the Short Stop position with Ian Desmond. The next closest position to being offensively below-average is the Catcher position with Wilson Ramos (aka the guy every Twins fan wishes had never been traded in order to get Matt Capps).
Predicted Record Range: 85-90 wins. I say this tentatively, though. For whatever reason, I have this strange feeling in my gut that SOMEthing will go wrong with the Nationals this year. My first thought was that Gio Gonzalez will be injured, but now I'm starting to think that it might be Strasburg again. Whatever, enough of my crazy feelings, that's it for this entry except that you need to vote on the poll below.
Next Up: Atlanta Braves, then the NL West
First team in NL West:

Jimmy Fallon & Adorable Daughter Winnie Wear Matching Suits on 'People' Cover!
Jimmy Fallon and his adorable daughter Winnie, 11 months, wear identical suits on the cover of People magazine's latest issue.
Here's what the 39-year-old Tonight Show host had to share:
On being a father: "When you have a baby, sleep is not an option. You can't sleep. Even on vacation, you wake up at 6:30 a.m."
On this past year: "This has been the craziest year of my life. But being a father is the most exciting, amazing thing that ever happened to me. And everything's going well on the show. My life has never been this cool."
On how having a baby has changed his life: "I didn't think it was going to be this fun. But everything just gets heightened when you have a baby. The volume gets turned up on life. I never knew I could be this happy, and that's the truth."

Why Is Match.com Launching a Party Business?
Online dating has become an increasingly popular way of finding a romantic partner, but users of such sites often complain that profile photos are misleading and that some people are too shy to meet in person.
In response, Match.com has launched a companion business called Stir to host parties where singles can meet and mingle.
Stir will offer mixers that come along with monthly membership and, for an extra fee, activity-specific mixers like cooking classes or wine-tastings. The company is expected to helm 2,000 to 3,000 singles parties a year, with 24 events planned in June and another 70 in September.
Its biggest advantage is that it can invite people to parties based on their Match.com user profiles and preferences — so if you live in Los Angeles and want to meet only people within your age range who have kids, Stir could ensure everyone there fits that criteria.
"Getting people in front of each other is so important," said Match.com president Mandy Ginsberg. She predicts Stir will be the largest singles event company in the world, potentially serving half a million people a year. In addition, since the parties will take place in city bars, she hopes they may even even spur local economies and revitalize downtown areas.

Team Sky's Michal Kwiatkowski secured overall victory at Tirreno-Adriatico following the final stage time trial.
The 2014 road race world champion was the fastest of the general classification contenders in the 10-kilometre race against the clock in San Benedetto Del Tronto.
Kwiatkowski started the stage with a three-second advantage over Damiano Caruso (BMC Racing) but pushed his overall winning margin to 24 seconds with an impressive display.
The leading riders all had to deal with a damp course, with early finisher Rohan Dennis (BMC Racing) taking stage victory in a time of 11 minutes and 14 seconds – 20 seconds quicker than Kwiatkowski.
Caruso held on to second overall ahead of Team Sky's Geraint Thomas, whose time of 11mins 37 secs earned him a podium place, 32 seconds adrift of his team-mate.
Thomas' fellow Briton Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott) moved up a place from sixth to fifth with a time of 12.08, while Lotto Soudal's Tiesj Benoot recorded 12.01 to jump from eighth to fourth.
Mikel Landa (Movistar) started the day in a podium place, 23 seconds off the race lead, but his time of 12.24 dropped him to sixth overall and one minute 13 seconds behind the GC winner.
Chris Froome, who was out of the running in the GC standings after a number of mechanical issues during the week, finished in the same time as team-mate Kwiatkowski.
LottoNL-Jumbo's Jos van Emden was second on the stage, four seconds behind Dennis, with Team Sky's Jonathan Castroviejo a further four seconds back in third.

An excerpt from "Dearest Friends: A Letter from Laurence Freeman OSB," Christian Meditation Newsletter, Vol. 33, No. 1, April 2009.
"The distinction between the office and person," said Dietrich Bonhoeffer, "is wholly alien to the teaching of Jesus." In the end, the truth is personal and it can only enter the world when it has conquered the human heart.
And the personal is tried and tested in daily life. Perhaps this is one reason why we are so invasively curious about the private lives of celebrities. We think we will know them better or come closer to them if we know about their secret or mundane tastes and routines. Yet, we know remarkably little about these aspects of the lives of those spiritual teachers who have helped humanity to evolve and truly changed the human mind. It is their personal authenticity, not their personal diaries, that is the criterion for our trusting them and their transmission of the truth they embodied. This rare and powerful authority of the true teacher enables us to trust them and to try to put into practice what they taught.
Personal authority though is not the same as institutional force. For many modern people the dogmatic authority of Christianity is undermined by the insistence of orthodoxy everywhere, that "you have to believe this if you are to be one of us." As a child or an unself-realized adult we may accept it because it affords the security of belonging to a group with firm convictions and allays the fear of rejection or of being on our own. But the more closely it is examined the idea that belief can be enforced is absurd.
Belief in any truth-revelation grows through a process that includes both personal experience and trust in the authenticity of the teacher. It is not that the dogma of Christianity are unimportant but that they are so important that they cannot be reduced to ready-made formulas set in linguistic forms that never change. They are not stamped party-cards or visas into the Kingdom.
The dogmas need to grow in the soil of daily life like the seed of the Kingdom itself. Truth grows in us as we grow in relation to the truth. Any institution, political, educational or religious, that denies this, ends by losing the trust of its members. Good faith means trust as well as belief.
After meditation: "To Finding Again," W.S. Merwin, PRESENT COMPANY (Port Townsend, WA: Copper Canyon Press, 2005), pp. 114-15.
To Finding Again
Everything else must have changed
must be different
by the time you appear
more than ever the same
taking me by surprise
in my difference
my age
long after I had come
to the end
of believing in you
to the end of hope
which was not even
the first of the changes
when I imagined
that I was forgetting you
you did not even need memory
to remain there
letting the years vanish
the miles depart
nothing surprising in that
even longing
does not need memory
to know what to reach for
and nothing surprises you
who were always there
wherever it was
beyond belief

Breaking out of your tunnel vision
Often during the course of a task, project, or even during a particular time in our career, we get a certain amount of tunnel vision. Being involved with a specific piece of software, hardware, or product, or even a specialized industry, we can focus too much on what's directly in front of us. It's no longer acceptable to entrench yourself in a single skill set and put on blinders that shut out the world around you. Even as project managers, we can lose insight on how this particular project fits into the facility or company as a whole. Working in a specific industry, we can find ourselves focusing on the "tried and true," and even though that approach works, it may cause us to lose out on something new and better. As much as it's a good thing to focus on the task we've been given, it often pays to adopt a wider and more long-term view. Here are some practical ways to broaden your horizon:
• While working on a project, take time to talk to those around you. Find out what they're working on and how it may affect what you do. Just because you're working on a specific piece, it doesn't mean that what you do doesn't affect anyone else, or that no one else's work can affect you. Finding out how someone else is implementing his or her part may impact what you do. Whether you're working on hardware or software, it all has to come together as a single working unit, and learning a little bit about how someone else's piece will work can give you insight into how your piece may be used and how you can improve your own implementation. It will make the project run much smoother to take a moment and find out what else is involved as part of the project. Your eyes may be opened to a different way of doing the task you're working on.
• Talk to other people in your company who are working on different projects. Find out what they're doing and how they're doing it. Finding out what's worked and failed on other projects and for other people can help you avoid problems, increase your efficiency, and speed up your success. No one wants to repeat the same mistakes over and over.
• When not working directly on a project, take the time to learn something new, whether it's a programming language, how a piece of hardware works, or even just general skills. There are many opportunities for picking up new skills. Whether it's a piece of hardware or software you haven't worked with before, take some time to figure out how to install it, program it, wire it up, and how it interfaces with other devices or software. You never know when you'll come across something similar in future work. There are also opportunities online to learn new skills. Many OEMs have white papers on their websites offering insight on how to use their products. There are also websites that offer training classes online, some even for free. A simple web search turns up many websites that offer training classes, and even forums for people to post problems and solutions.
Regardless of whether you have designs to move up the corporate ladder, or are content in your current role, as an engineer you have a responsibility to provide a good product to your customer, whether that is a paying client or someone else in your company who will be building on your work. Technology is always changing, and the skills that you have today may not be compatible with the hardware, software, or processes that are being used tomorrow. It takes effort to keep up, but it will pay off, and you will thank yourself for the investment. So will your boss, coworkers, and clients.

Jake Red Dorman's curator insight, November 13, 2014 4:43 PM
Map number 7 shows what New Yorkers complain about the most in their beloved city. The complaints are split into noise, graffiti and litter. It is no surprise that most New Yorkers complain about noise in Manhattan, well because it is one of the largest cities in the world, of course there is going to be noise. And then looking on the outskirts of the main city in Manhattan there are mostly complaints about litter. The map is mostly blue in most areas. As for graffiti there are a couple pockets spread out which is where I'm assuming most gang activity takes place. Queens, the Bronx, and Brooklyn is where most of the graffiti is located according to this map. I liked this ma because it shows what you're going to see or hear in certain places in the City area.

The world, here, is literally at your fingertips. It is a simple way for anyone to locate a multitude of data about any given place around the world. It is another way that brings the whole world that much closer in this technological era.
Lisa Fonseca's comment, September 17, 2012 3:22 PM
The first image displays a better visual of exactly where the fire damaged the land, the second image doesn't provide a clear visual to someone, the land effected is foggy. If I was going to visit this specific area in Northern California I would much rather use the first aerial image.
Jesse Gauthier's comment, September 17, 2012 3:31 PM
The first image gives a good spatial shot of where the exact hot spots are located that cannot be seen by the naked eye. The second photo will give you a spatial view of what you can actually see. Both are needed to put out the hot spot because they each will provide two different solutions to stop the burning acres.
Seth Dixon's curator insight, September 25, 2013 1:33 PM
2012 is going to go down in United States history as the year with the most acres burned in a single year (statistics only go back to 1960). The two featured images were taken earlier this month to display a Northern California wildfire; both with the same spatial resolution and acquired for the same instrument (Advanced Land Imager on EO-1 satellite), yet they are quite distinct. One shows an aerial photograph, displaying exactly what standard visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum (showing us what our eyes would normally see). The other image displays a false color (near infrared) image.
Questions to ponder: what advantages does each image have for analyzing the fire damage? Drawbacks? How does the data from both images work together to create a more complete picture of the situation?

This sounds really intruging to me; I have heard of astroarchiology before in the aplication of finding undiscovered large objects (cities, towns sttlements) by using satellites to map deviations in teh earths surface accurately enough to distingush structures like a building foundation. I just find this sort of thing fascinating. I am still in awe that this dort of thing is possible.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. -- Despite a late second-half rally, the Springfield College men's basketball team could not top visiting MIT, as the Engineers held on for a 60-50 win in New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) action on Wednesday evening.
