^ ' :.. | The College Mews z-eu VOL. XXIX, No. 6 BRYN MAWR and WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1942 Copyright, Trustees of Bryn Mawr College, 1942 PRICE 10 CENTS Cornelia Skinner Gives Workshop Father's Costumes Beautiful Costumes With Historical Interest Donated Theatre Workshop, October 31. �The presentation of many of Otis Skinner's costumes to the Mrs. Otis Skinner Memorial Workshop was made by Cornelia Otis Skinner on Saturday afternoon* Among the costumes is a crimson velvet suit trimmed with black which Mr. Skinner wore as Earl of Leicester when he played with Mme. Mod- jeska in Mary Stuart in 1893. An orange velvet jacket and trousers worn by Mrs. Skinner in the part of a young boy are among the interesting items included in the collection. Displayed with a group of fabrics are authentic lin- ens which Mr. Skinner wore, made for Spanish matadors by a Madrid concern. The whole collection, in- cluding some of Miss Skinner's costumes, is beautiful as well as of historical interest to theatre en- thusiasts. President McBride introduced Roland Young and Miss Skinner. After Mr. Young's tribute to the great actor, Miss Skinner remin- isced about her father's stage ca- reer. She told how Mme. Helen Modjeska, the famous Polish ac- tress, had introduced her protegee Maud Durbin to the handsome matinee idol who later became her husband. A cloak given to Mrs. Skinner by Modjeska is included in the collection. "I can't think of a place where I'd rather have these costumes," said Miss Skinner. Her mother, walking past the old barn which has been transformed into the Theatre Workshop, had often ex- pressed the wish that a little the- atre could be built there. Commenting on a dagger which Otis Skinner used in Richard the Third, Miss Skinner related the story of her only appearance in a Shakespearean play with her Continued nn Page Four Busy Week-End Spent By B.M. and Princeton Harvesting Fall Crops On the weekend of October 31st, Bryn Mawr and Princeton collabo- rated in a farming expedition to the College Farm Settlement in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. There they debated with a group of Princeton students on the problems of post-war organization. Satur- day and Sunday the group worked harvesting the crops. Ten Bryn Mawr girls took the local to the Broad Street Station. There they met Ted Pollen, who had been asked by the Princeton students to conduct a discussion on Friday night. The Bryn Mawr contingent arrived at Willow Grove slightly after seven o'clock. Eight Princeton boys were awaiting their arrival with a highly appreciated station wagon. Half of the group promptly went on to the Farm three miles away and helped fix supper, while the car returned for the rest. There was supper with Mr. and Mrs. Peters, and then clean-up squads took care of various jobs. After this, Mr. Pollen led the de- Contlnueo on �Pace Four Speakers Planned by Vocational Committee In order to determine what voca- tional speakers students would be interested in hearing, the Voca- tional Committee, in cooperation with the Bureau of Recommenda- tions, is sending out cards to dis- cover the immediate intentions of Seniors and graduate students as to jobs and where the major voca- tional interests of the campus lie. The Committee plans to send out two cards. Besides a general vo- cational interest blank, there will be a War Course card sent to Seniors and graduate students, ask- ing them whether they intend to go into war work or war training courses immediately, rather than begin a specific career. From these blanks the Committee expects to formulate plans for the year's vo- cational speakers. B. M. Students Work for Country's Cause As Our Armed Forces Jitterbug at USO By Elizabeth Watkins, '44 Last Sunday night saw Bryn Mawr's first direct attempt at bol- stering morale when a troup of girls invaded the U.S.O. Center on Locut Street in Philadelphia. The vanguard consisted of ten brave ma'dens who were invited for' sup- per. Hallowe'en seemed to be the theme of the decorations so chow- mein was served. The girls were greeted with indifference and a mere show of newspapers, but their tactics must have been successful, for the forty girls who arrived later were greeted with whistles and cheers. The men immediately swept the girls off their feet, but it was soon discovered that hot jitterbugging is not B. M.'s "forte." An attempt at rhumbas and the like was pre- vented because the victrola seemed capable of playing only I'm Dream- ing of a White Christmas and Praise the Lord and Pass the Am- munition. The yells and stamping of feet that greeted the latter made it a very disrupting element. A magician, who is a chemist in Ardmore on the side, entertained with such thrilling acts as fire eat- ing. Dancing was also varied with bridge in which, of course, the girls excelled. We are proud to say, however, that the men held their own in poker and pool. There was also a choice between comfortable leather chairs and ping-pong equip- Lment. After all this exertion, re- freshments were served. This time the Hallowe'en theme was adhered to in the form of the traditional cake with favors inside, and ice cream and cider. Three British Marines and Miss Raymond caused the most excite- ment. The reason for the marines is fairly obvious, yet we are sorry to say that the old line of teaching slang was tried again. Miss Ray- mond's position as an ensign in the WAVES was disturbing. The presence of an officer was not al- lowed according to the rules, but it was undecided whether this ap- plied to a woman or not. All cries of "Throw her out!" were promptly quieted. Never has the U.S.O. been so well stocked with women. We will not commit ourselves on the ques- tion of whether the girls concen- trated or circulated. There was a conflict between the instruction to circulate and the instruction to "give one's all." It was up to the girls to'make their choice. Need- less to say, their efforts were ap- preciated � only a few heartless men remarked on the "cold intel- lectuals." Calendar Saturday, November 7 Rockefeller Hall Dance.

Co-ops Play Big Part In Coffee Rationing Controversy Between Co-ops, Broadcasting Companies Now Rages By Barbara Hull, '44 The growth of the Bryn Mawr Cooperative from an original mem- bership of 89 in March, 1939, to 430, is indicative of the spread of the Co-op movement in this coun- try. Cooperatives are largely respon- sible for the coffee rationing order which goes into effect November 30. The Eastern Cooperative Wholesale was the first large con- sumer organization to urge indi- vidual rationing. The present method of coffee distribution on the quota basis of 65 per cent of the amount distributed a year ago penalizes Cooperatives and other fast-growing distributors. Letters and petitions from individuals and Cooperative Societies flooded Leon Henderson's office in the OPA. In- dividual coffee rationing is the re- sult. The Co-ops are now engaged in a serious controversy with the Na- tional Broadcasting Company and the Columbia Broadcasting Sys- tem, which refused to sell available time for a coast-to-coast Coopera- tive radio program. The program, "Let's Get Together, Neighbors," "to awaken America to the value of Consumer Cooperatives," was scheduled to go on the air October 11 for thirteen successive Sundays. Thousands of consumers had con- tributed funds, An advertising agency had been selected, producer and author chosen, and the first broadcast recorded. KDKA, in Pittsburgh, owned and operated by Westinghouse and rep- resented by NBC, first objected to these programs. CBS's station WJSV, in Washington, also ob- jected, and Columbia said that time could not be given because the program was "controversial." On technical grounds, NBC declined to accept a contract. Deciding that effort and money would be wasted without the im- portant coverage controlled by NBC and CBS, the board of the Cooperative League postponed the program. New Plan Established For Payment of Bills At Inn and Bookshop The Book Shop and Inn accounts for 1942-43 will no longer be in- cluded in Pay. Day collections. Patrons are requested to pay cash at time of purchase, and a mini- mum of 25 cents may be charged at the Book Shop. Purchases of less value than this amount are too expensive to record and collect. Accounts will be closed at the end of the third week of each month, and the amounts owed by each student will be posted on Hall and Non-resident bulletin boards. They should be paid on or bgfore the tenth day of the month. The charge privilege will be withdrawn for any student whose account is not paid by the 15th, and will not be resumed untilthe overdue bill is paid. Checks should be sent through campus mail, and the cancelled check will be the receipt. For both Inn and Bookshop cash settlements, a cashier will accept payments in the Office of the Assistant to the Treasurer (the door to the left of the water cooler on the north side of Taylor Hall) from 2 until 4 P. M. Monday through Friday. Inn accounts may be settled with the cashier at the Inn from 2.30 to 4 P. M. every day. Students are requested to wait for receipts at the time payment is made. Watson to Lecture To B. M. Farm Group James Watson will speak to the Bryn Mawr Farm Unit in the Common Room on Thursday, No- vember 5 at 7.30. Mr. Watson is the County Agent for the Agri- cultural Board of the United States Employment Service, and has organized Boy Scouts, College and Community Groups. Every- one interested in farming is in- vited. He will emphasize the La- bor Shortage in farming now, and will discuss how we can help. Mr. Watson will speak about the Trac- tor School Bryn Mawr will have this winter. There is a strong interest in the Farming Problem on campus this year, and the Bryn Mawr Farm Unit has organized corn husking and apple picking groups through- out the fall. The Tractor School will last through the winter months and crop planting will be Continued on rage four Sophomores Give Lighted Lanterns In Old Ceremony j Graduates and Students Crowd the Cloisters To Watch The Cloisters were again the scene of Lantern Night ceremonies on Friday, October 30. Friends, parents, upperclassmen and alum- nae crowded the parapets to watch the traditional exchange of lan- terns between Sophomores and Freshmen. The difficulties caused by the dif- ference in number of Freshmen and Sophomores present, were skillfully handled. There were 152 Freshmen and only 98 Sophomores. It was noticeable only in that the singing of the Freshmen was rich- er and more integrated than that of the Sophomores. It was man- aged so that every Freshman re- ceived a lantern without confusion and complication. Every year the traditional form of the ceremony undergoes a few changes. In a successful innova- tion the last 40 Freshmen went through the side arches instead of following the others out the front arch. It not only prevented pro- longation of the ceremony, but also made an interesting variation in the patterns of the lights. The Freshmen were allowed to wear socks and moccasins�a complete reverse from the black stockings of former years. Singing under Pembroke Arch followed the ceremony. There for the first time the Freshmen sang their lyric song and class hymn. Their rendition of "Sweet and Low" firmly established their repu- tation in regards to their singing ability. Bond Day Thursday, November 5, will be the first Bond Day. Sponsored by the War Bond Committee under the Alli- ance, Bond Day will be the 5th of every month. Agents of the Committee in each hall will collect the money al- ready pledged in the Bond and Stamp Drive. Receipts will be given for the money collected, and will be return- ed when the stamps are de- livered to the buyers. Thirty-Five Years' Mystery Shrouds Origin Of B. M.'s Heraldic But Meaningful Banners Freshman Elections The Class of 1946 takes pleasure in announcing the following elections: President, Elizabeth Hor- rax. Vice - president, Elizabeth Potter. Secretary, Ellen Brooke. Song Mistress, Margaret Hilgartner. By Anne Denny, '43 For thirty-five years the heraldic banners have flown from the tow- ers of Bryn Mawr on May Day and Commencement Day. For thirty- five years they have been taken for granted until some inquisitive vis- itor at the Inauguration asked about their origin. What did they mean? Was there any particular reason for dollar signs on Rocke- feller and lions on the gym? A wave of curiosity swept the camp- us, bewildering administration, students, and alumanae alike. NO- BODY knew the answer! There are various rumors and theories about the flags, and a few facts. They were designed in 1906 by Elizabeth Daly, '01, to be used at May Day. When these originals became ragged and forlorn and the 1936 May Day approached, Mr. Frederick Strawbridge donated new replicas. The only other fact connected with the flags that seems to be accepted by all campus au- thorities is that they do mean something. "Welsh counties, I think," is a frequent answer to the mystery. Miss P e 11 s contributes the thought that one of them was the flag flown from Buckingham Pal- ace when the King of England was present. Other contributions to their history include the proposi- tions that one is St. George's flag, and one is the flag of old Scotland. Another opinion is that King Rich- ard's banner is among them. No one denies that the flags have atmosphere, that they have some- thing to do with May Day, and that they are completely inexplic- able. But there are only two peo- ple who really know: Miss Daly herself, and on inaccessible old gardener somewhere in Bryn Mawr. We look forward to the day when the mystery is solved and we suggest a doctoral thsis in Me- diaeval English History to divulge the facts.

What state can one go to get away from gay marriage?
I am in Illinois, and we are one house of representatives vote away from gay marriage.
I went through the adoption of civil unions two years ago, and thought then, I need to move, but then thought that would be it, that an equivalent structure would be enough to satisfy the liberal left, but it wasn't.
I am really despairing here that I can't live anymore in a state where such things are accepted (and paid for with my tax money), and I have to be part of a court system that works on these issues as well.
There is also the issue of the two cases before the Supreme Court; if those cases go the "wrong" way, perhaps there will be no "safe" place in America on the issue.
I am seriously considering moving, but I really don't know where might be "safe" from this issue.
I have wanted to move to AZ but now I see that is not even a good bet.
I am thinking that a state where there has been a long standing constitutional amendment defining marriage as one man one woman....I know which those are, but are you even safe there?
What does everyone think? Is there anywhere one can go where you can be safe from this issue?

o c Jon M. Huntsman, Jr. Governor 0 ( v_ I P c State of Utah Office of the Governor Salt Lake City, Utah 84 1 I 4-2 2 20 Gary R. Herbert Lieutenant Governor News Release May 16, 2009 Contact: Lisa Roskelley Governor's Spokeswoman Office (801) 538-1503 Cell (801) 560-0137 Governor Huntsman Tapped as US Ambassador to China Salt Lake City - Utah Governor Jon Huntsman issued the following statement today: "When I had the honor of asking Utahns for their vote as Governor of the greatest state in America, I did so as a public servant. We set out, as a family, willing and able to do our very best. That dedication to service and to the success of our state and country has influenced our every step. "It is in the spirit of placing country before self or politics that I have accepted the request and nomination by President Obama, and with the consent of the United States Senate, to serve as United States Ambassador to China. "Mary Kaye and I are equally humbled and conflicted by this decision, understanding that the U.S. - China relationship is among our nation's most critical. We are honored by the President's confidence and trust in our ability to contribute meaningfully, yet conflicted by leaving a state, people and job we love deeply. But when the President asks you to step up to serve your nation in such a capacity and at such an important time in world history, it is the end of the conversation and the beginning of an obligation. "We have accomplished much with an excellent staff, cabinet and a dedicated legislature. I am proud of our work together which has resulted in Utah being recognized as the best managed state in the nation - with an economy second to none. Our journey has covered everything from comprehensive tax reform, the Utah Science Technology and Research Initiative (USTAR), and improving our state's competitiveness to bolstering education and increasing teacher salaries, advancing healthcare reform and retooling our energy needs based upon a more sustainable future. Utah is positioned like few other states nationally to endure the challenging times, but indeed to exceed our expectations going forward. "Lt. Governor Gary Herbert has been an effective and loyal supporter of this Administration's goals. I thank him for his service and have great confidence in his ability to govern the State. "Serving as Utah's 16* Governor truly has been our family's greatest honor. Mary Kaye and I thank all Utahns for their friendship, support and trust, and ask for continued confidence as we begin this new chapter." A specific timeline of the transition between Governor Huntsman and Lt. Governor Herbert will be announced on Monday. ###

3 Great game but lacks something!samwall | 29/09/2012 | See all samwall's reviews (4)I have waited for a while to get this game and at first glance i was really happy with it, the game features in the new game are great with much more emphasis on starting out as an amateur.The only real problem i have with this game is the swing mechanics! although when hitting drivers and irons is easy enough the putting can be difficult. The swing mechanics are too sensitive for the PS3 controller meaning you constantly over hit shots and puts which can be very annoying!I would like to recommend this game to people but i cant say i would, im pretty disappointed with the gameplay as its not really enjoyable enough when you are frustrated with over hitting shots and puts all the time.i would stick with 2012 as the gameplay is more enjoyable

Rahu in Virgo
Rahu and Ketu move from Libra and Aries into Virgo and Pisces on July 12th 2014 at 19:11 CDT. It is an extraordinary time on multiple levels- which truly speaks to the level of intensity the nodes offer. As soon as Guru Purnima takes place on the 11th and 12th (USA), the nodes shift signs with a bang. Rahu then collides with a transitioning Mars who is moving into Libra on the 13th, followed by Venus moving into Gemini just after that. Lots of sudden movement in a very short amount of time!
The illusory nature of the nodes brings into question the impact this transit will have on us, but when Rahu and Mars combine (as they will exactly on the 13th) there is sure to be some powerful sparks taking place. Caution should be taken at this time and fires of all kinds are possible, so be prudent. This includes a variety of sparks from the emotional and verbal levels, as well as with relationships. Driving should be done with extra care- if at all. Intoxication and inflammation are indicated with this conjunction, so avoid excesses of all kinds and stay away from others who are likely to be partaking.
Rahu in Virgo and 6th House Matters
As Rahu makes its way into Virgo, we begin to feel the difference from the past 18 months immediately. Likely, most of us will be feeling the shifts weeks in advance on some level. This transit will be very different for many reasons, but essentially it will be enlivening Virgo and the nature of Virgo, as well as all things related to the 6th house. Let's unpack this a bit more.
Whereas Libra is ruled by Saturn and Venus and correlates to 7th house matters like relationships, business and balance; Virgo is about purity, idealism and creativity and ruled by Mercury (the indicator for mental body, communication and creativity). Venus is considered debilitated in Virgo because the restrictions Virgo puts on love, restricts the flowing nature of Venus's love. Libra is an air sign, Virgo is an earth sign and so their expressions and results are truly different. Luckily, Virgo is also the mulitrikona sign of Rahu, which bodes well for material gains and stabilizing finances if all other chart indications support this. We also won't be having the stormy conjunction of Rahu and Saturn together as we have for the last 18 months. Rudra and his storm energy certainly brought intensity! Those days are behind us now thankfully, but this new chapter will bring with it a new wave of challenges and opportunities.
As Rahu transits Virgo, sixth house matters will also be enlivened. The sixth house has to do with disease and debts (the kinds that can be corrected and cured, unlike the 8th house indications) as well as enemies. This house is known to be a trouble maker because of these tendencies, but there are also some fortunate connections as well. Since disease is attributed to 6th house matters, it is also connected to the healer, the one who heals disease as well as being in service to others. And depending on the other indications of the chart, enemies can become friends in certain circumstances. In regard to debts, learning how to handle money and the affairs of money can create much more financial stability; where we put our attention, we learn and grow. So this can be a fabulous time to increase our knowledge and understanding with all the things that are 6th house related.
With Rahu's fanaticism and obsessive nature, it's quite likely that we will be forced to attend to these themes very directly- either by will or by force. Depending on your rising sign and other chart details, the placement of Rahu in your chart during this transit will also enliven other attributes and indications and either heighten or lessen these expressions. This is a general guideline of course.
Other indications of the 6th house include: Enemies/opponents, legal issues/litigation, health, short term disease/sickness, servants and employees, pets, lower abdomen, large intestine, bad habits, maternal uncle and cousins, wounds, boils, scars, sores, cancer, step mother, weapons, struggles, theft, sexual diseases, poisons, healers, digestion, being in service.
From his placement in Virgo, Rahu will give drishti (gaze) to five, seven and nine houses away from him. He will be looking at Pisces directly seven houses away, where Ketu will be as well. His gaze five houses away will be on Capricorn, and nine houses away will give drishti to Taurus- both earth signs like Virgo. Will this transit bring greater stability and grounding into our lives, or an increase in uprooting, change and calamities? Hopefully, the latter, as the desire for earthy stability will be strengthened at this time.
Themes of Virgo will increase during this transit for certain. These include idealism and perfectionism. We may question what this means for us and what our relationship is with idealism as a result. Along with perfectionism comes the critic and our relationship with this inner beast. Do we have a healthy or toxic relationship with this inner entity? We will certainly be getting multiple opportunities to explore this dynamic during this transit.
Purification and cleanliness are other themes that get our attention. Are we being overly fastidious? Using too many diet fads, cleansing rituals and extreme purification practices? Rahu could make us go into over-drive, or under drive depending on your relationship with him and your sixth house nature. Balance is ultimately the goal, but watch out for being extreme- in either direction! Virgo is also very detail oriented, methodical, precise and good with numbers, communications and creative endeavors. Work with goals, timelines and clear time lines in order to get the job done. Virgo's love a good list. Use them and revel in checking off your action steps!
The Virgo nature is to have very high standards which can't often (or ever) be met, so dissatisfaction is likely. Be aware that this theme may develop or be heightened in your own personal mythology. Ask your self these questions periodically: Are your expectations too high? Are you self sabotaging as a result? Are you finding fault with others constantly and being excessively judgmental? What is your relationship with your inner critic? Remember when you lash out at others, there's usually an inner voice saying the same thing to you! This is an ideal transit to create a more harmonious relationship with the inner critic and the expectations you have with yourself.

As Rahu moves to Virgo, Ketu moves to Pisces. Use this time of the Rahu and Ketu transits to recommit to your enlightenment and spiritual pursuits. Make healing and health a priority and focus. Seek balance with relationships- the relationship with your Self and with others. Look for fanaticism, rigidity and where your idealism is forcing you off track from goals and the long term agenda. Creating more harmony is ultimately the goal, but we may have to work with some extremes before we find our sense of center. In this cycle, don't fall off the wagon and loose your commitment to health and well being with excess toxicity, but at the same time, excessive puritanical and self righteous behaviors will not lead to sustainability and healing in the long run. This is a unique cycle that can truly awaken us to parts of ourselves that we have been missing- overlooking perhaps out of fear, denial and past suffering. We have the opportunity to introspect in new and unique ways as a result of this cycle. No doubt the outcome of the next 18 months will be a time period of great change, clarity and momentum.

Steve,I'm just going to post things as I find them; hope you don't mind. In the forum, the pizza making.com logo at the top left of the page use to be a hyperlink to the front/index page. I liked using it as a shortcut back to the index page so I could access the glossary/books/recipe buttons.MikeEdit: Great job btw. Looks very nice and professional.
Another thing I liked was the 10 most recent post, you could read them without going to the thread. Now we have to go to the thread MWTC
Steve,With the last forum format, a statement appeared at the top of the page to indicate the existence of PMs. Can that feature be incorporated in the new format?Peter
I think that it is a great job Steve. Where it says Pizza Making Forum> Reference...> etc, is it me or does the font look a little small. Or am I just getting too old? It looks like you have some available space above and below the text.. Just my opinion.Adam
Hi Steve,Just one other item, trivial also, but it leads to a better overall experience. When yo go to do a spellcheck, it opens another window. The new window is slightly smaller than it could be, necessitating that you scroll down about an inch it seems to do the ignore, change buttons. Or is that just on my computer?Adam
For some reason images no longer load when I view forum pages. There isn't even a template for them - it's as if posts with images didn't contain them at all. This wasn't a problem for me yesterday or any time before today, so I have to think it's related to the update.I'm using Firefox 1.0.7 btw.
Seems like every 3d time or so that I go to quote a post, I get an error code saying verification failed. Anybody else getting this?Adam

Master of Divinity (MDiv) LEAD Program
The LEAD Master of Divinity (MDiv) program prepares missional ministry leaders for contemporary cultural settings. The program uses an interdisciplinary approach where Bible, theology, and practical ministry skills are taught together so that theology and ministry flow directly from consideration of the biblical text.
The Master of Divinity (MDiv) is the foundational degree for Christian vocation. Biblical's professors employ a missional hermeneutic to their approach to theological study and practice. Missional theology and biblical studies are integrated so students can grasp the great sweeping narrative of God's redemption in every aspect of creation through Jesus Christ.
Who are LEAD MDiv Students?
- Full-time Senior Pastors
- Youth Pastors, Worship Leaders
- Church Planters
- Ministry Leaders
- Parachurch Ministers
- Anyone desiring to follow God
What can you expect from the LEAD Program?
Expect to be changed. The LEAD MDiv is a three-year, cohort based program, where students remain together throughout their studies. This provides the unique ability for students to work on team building in ministry while sowing into each others lives. The classes are structured to provide practical and spiritual growth.
How can the LEAD Program change you?
At Biblical, the cohort model is a powerful delivery format for professional development because it taps into students' prior ministry experience, it is collaborative, and it occurs over a period of three years. Because students move through the program together, the quality of learning from one course to another is enhanced. Cohorts develop strong communication skills where students sharpen and challenge each other. This dynamic learning community produces the kind of deep learning, authentic contextualization, and relational wisdom that missional leaders need today.
In addition, students will embrace spiritual formation through participation in five retreats (included in tuition) and an intercultural learning experience at the completion of the program.
What is a LEAD MDiv IME trip like?
Are you short on time?
Of course you are, however, Biblical Seminary's LEAD MDiv program is custom tailored to the full-time ministry candidate, or the full-time career oriented person who desires additional training and are strapped for time. LEAD MDiv program is designed to allow a student to earn a degree in three years. Throughout the program classes are offered on Tuesday nights with an additional Saturday class once a month.
"My Master of Divinity training at Biblical Seminary helped me transition directly from a role as president of a successful business in New Jersey to a senior pastor position in Michigan. Our church is re-igniting its passion for Christ and currently walking through a vision and name change."- Phil DiLernia, MDiv '05

How long will it take to complete the MDiv program?
The Master of Divinity program can be completed in three years with a total of 90 credits. However, many students pursue the program on a part-time basis for all or part of their course of study. A comprehesive schedule of night classes allows for a flexible program of study.
What are the entrance requirements to the MDiv program?
Biblical welcomes men and women who have or are about to complete a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university. Prior study in Bible or theology is not required. International applicants have additional requirements that are posted on our website .
The admissions committee assesses each applicant on the basis of academic ability, personal characteristics, and educational and ministry goals and objectives.
- Cultivate grace-based missional lives characterized by the fruit of the Spirit, and love for God and others
- Cultivate wisdom and skill in interpersonal relationships, conflict management, and living in community.
- Demonstrate knowledge of the Bible and its missional perspective and the ability to humbly interpret and apply it in light of history, culture, and genre.
- Know the key persons, ideas, and movements in the history of theology and the Christian tradition and their significance today.
- Demonstrate effective missional leadership based on biblical values and individual gifting, personality, call, context, and relational skills.
- Critically, constructively, and creatively engage our postmodern culture with the hope of the gospel.
A great sign of a seminary is how far people will travel to go there. Personally my 2.5 hour drive up from Baltimore to attend classes for the LEAD MDiv program was well worth the trip. In this program my faith and confidence in God grew - isn't that the way it is supposed to be? Part of the design of the LEAD program integrated team building, which is such an important skill for ministry. What a great new style of seminary.

text: Self-proclaimed "fat-thlete" achieves goal weight Decatur resident Tina Tait struggled with weight her entire life despite leading an active lifestyle and avidly participating in races and charity walks. Tait started a weight loss blog as a journal for herself a few years ago that helped her lose 100 pounds the old-fashioned way with traditional diet and exercise. Much to her dismay, she later gained it all back. That's when Tait turned to weight loss surgery at Piedmont Atlanta. A year later, Tait has lost over 120 pounds - about half of her initial body weight! A mother's intuition senses what some doctors couldn't When Teah Bramlett, 32, found it increasingly harder to breathe as she neared the final weeks of her pregnancy, she knew something was wrong but didn't know what it was until she woke up from a medically-induced coma. Bramlett suffers from postpartum cardiomyopathy, a rare disorder that causes the heart to fail. At 12 weeks pregnant, Bramlett's heart was functioning normally. By the ninth month, her heart was functioning at less than 15 percent. Today, her heart functions with the help of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) and it is unclear whether she will be able to come off the LVAD or if she will be in need of a heart transplant in the future.

I've yet to mention scotch on this blog. There are a couple of reasons why. One: Bourbon exists, so what's the point? Two: Scotch precipitates a taste-memory flashback to my first year of living in New York, specifically the hours between midnight and 5 a.m. of that year, a year I'm happy to leave fuzzy, hazy and behind.
Back then I was interning at a magazine during the day, waiting tables at the now-defunct Bottom Line at night, then spending several hours and most of the tips I'd just earned at some of Greenwich Village's finest last-ditch saloons along with my Bottom Line co-workers, most of whom I haven't been able to recall by name for over a decade. My go-to drink during those lost mornings was scotch and soda — a highball I settled on solely because it was the most grown-up-seeming thing I could think of to order. I was 22, recently graduated from a fancy-name college and hanging with middle-aged, stage-crew guys sporting frazzled, gray hair and incomplete sets of teeth. I wanted to fit in.
I suppose that's all nothing to be too embarrassed about, but as far as the scotch-and-sodas were concerned, I was drinking them for all the wrong reasons. Chief among those wrong reasons: I hated the way they tasted, like dirt and unscrupulousness and sock sweat. (Mind you, these scotch-and-sodas were made with no-name, bottom-shelf scotch, natch.)
So when Sean put a Pan Am in my hand recently and told me to take a sip, you can imagine my surprise when the first thing I said was, "This actually tastes like scotch," and that I said so with a smile across my face. What it actually tastes like is a bright, unmuddied scotch full of pep and character; in the book from which this recipe is adapted, the author calls it "Mexican firewater meets Kentucky hooch." Either way, the Pan Am is a serviceable highball, uncomplicated but not simple, a great sipper that you can (and should! this is high-octane stuff!) take your time to enjoy.
The Pan Am
(Adapted from Mini Bar: Tequila: A Little Book of Big Drinks, by Mittie Hellmich)
1 ounce Sauza Tequila Anejo Conmemorativo
1 ounce Buffalo Trace bourbon
1/4 ounce simple syrup
3 dashes of Angostura bitters
Combine all ingredients into an ice-filled highball glass, stir briskly for a few seconds and serve.
Tasting Notes:
The original recipe calls for mezcal instead of tequila; we don't have the former at home, so we subbed in the latter.

Love the buttercream blush, it's very natural looking on my skin. Sometimes it looks a little dark immediately after applying on my skin. So I tend to go easy on it, then once I'm done with the rest of my makeup, I check in natural light, to see if more is needed.

5 The best Mario Kart game on a hand held console!dragonlord | 08/01/2012 | See all dragonlord's reviews (442)Top 10 Reviewer Top 10 DVD Reviewer Number 1 Games Reviewer Top 10 Music Reviewer Top 100 Books Reviewer Top 100 Clothing Reviewer Mario Kart 7 brings back the coins that were used in the very first Mario Kart game on SNES which is now 20 years ago! By collecting the coins your cart goes faster and another intresting fact is the first eight racers are the same ones from Super Mario Kart on the SNES too which are Mario, Luigi, Peach, Donkey Kong, Toad, Bowser, Koopa Troopa and Yoshi. The 3D effect in Mario Kart 7 is excellent and I love the new hang glider sections and the underwater parts of the tracks are pretty cool too. You can use the L or X buttons to fire the weapons and we have got the fire flower at last! The other two new items are the Super Leaf which gives you a tail and you can attack the other drivers with it and the very rare Lucky Seven which equips you with seven different items simultaneously.You can steer your kart two different ways by using the stick or if you switch the game into cockfit view point by pressing the d-pad button upwards, you are able to steer when tilting your 3DS like Mario Kart on the Wii for intense racing fun. The new tracks are some of the best yet and I get to race the Kalimari Desert track from the classic N64 Mario Kart game at long last again. Another good reason for collecting the coins as you race around the different tracks by the way is that the more coins you have enables you to unlock new kart parts.Playing Mario Kart 7 is even more fun online or against a friend whom has the game on their 3DS too. Only Nintendo seem to be able to make games that are just as fun 20 years ago again and again, and that really shows how their games stand the test of time unlike many other games over the years.
5 Best Mario Kart for DS yet!Kayzie | 19/01/2012 | See all Kayzie's reviews (3)This new mario kart introduces some great new items (like fireballs), and also allows you to glide through the air and go underwater. The 3D graphics are great and the game is easy to pick up and play. The online multiplayer feature is good, I'm on a 2mb connection and it didn't even feel like it was lagging at all. You can also play with friends via download play, so even if your friend doesn't have the game they can play along with you (even on the grand prix mode). You can even customise the wheels on your cart and the type of glider you're using. This gives people the chance to not just unlock carts & characters but wheels and gliders too!This game is good fun and I'd recommend it to anyone who has enjoyed Mario Kart on Wii or the DS. It's a great new addition to the mario series!
3 A solid Performer, but it is far too short.Deviloffuel | 02/12/2011 | See all Deviloffuel's reviews (32)Well, 5 hours into playing the game, and I've finished the grand prix on 100cc and 150cc, it is way, way too short.Other downsides? Well, the Single Player is Poor, very, very boring, There isn't enough customisation (3 aspects) to warrant adding it, there are only 8 tournaments to do, which means a piffling 32 tracks to play, and who's idea was it to add the mii's? They sound like 2 year olds. The difficulty also just isn't there unless you opt straight for the 150cc class.On the upside, playing it on multiplayer is epic, great fun, but the balloon war can get tiresome pretty quickly, as you can't unlock anything through it. You can, however, team up with a friend to do the tournaments, meaning you both unlock things, all you have to do (if you're not competitive) is make sure one of the players wins.(It's great fun if you are competitive though)Graphics, sound, controls are all pretty solid, nothing extraordinary to report, but better than some other karting racers out there. Having it 3ds only seems a bit odd, there's not really enough 3D in it.Overall, 2 sides of the extreme, on the one hand, it's a properly fun multiplayer game, but play it on your own, and you'll be trading it in within a few hours.Was expecting more, but it is the strongest Mario Kart to date, but again, that's not saying much. A few more diverse tracks would have been welcome, there are mirror tracks, but in my eyes, that doesn't count.
5 Best multiplayer 3DS game yet!MikeCraig | 14/01/2012 | See all MikeCraig's reviews (5)I really enjoyed Mario Kart 7 :) It's the first game that I believe really captures the essence of the 3DS's pick up and play style Nintendo have been going for. Play a race, put it in my pocket and play another when I have another free moment! The Streetpass functionality is really good and the online play has the same greatness as its Wii cousin. The 3D effect works great in a subtle but good-looking way, it gives more life to the vibrant tracks. Vehicle customisation really adds some replay value, you're going to need to play a lot of races for those coins to get vehicle parts! The new courses are great and the retro ones are well chosen not to mention the underwater and flying sections of the game! Overall a really great package! If you own a 3DS this should certainly be the game to own as of right now!
5 awesome karting action!crobbus | 03/12/2011 | See all crobbus's reviews (2)i dunno what the guy above me is on about but this game is amazing. yes it may be a bit on the easy side at times but there is loads here to keep you busy. for example i spend ages trying to beat one of the developer times in time trail. wasnt easy but i got there eventually. havent tried the multiplayer yet but will do once i get home from uni as halls do not have wireless.in short buy this

The Light and How to Swing It: How will protection glyph come 5.4?
One of the most monumental changes that protection paladins will be facing in the upcoming patch will be a simple nerf to one of our favorite glyphs. Since just about the beginning of Mists, protection paladins have uniformly equipped the Glyph of the Battle Healer to great effect and, alas, the devs have finally decided to step in and put a stop to our shenanigans.
You can't really blame them, Battle Healer was brokenly good -- free heals that were augmented by Vengeance, and while they weren't a gamechanger by any means (thanks to overheals), it was still an advantage that paladins had over any other tanking class. It was a needed change.
Regardless, the change to Battle Healer has a ripple effect for protection paladins as it makes Battle Healer a purely situational glyph for fights where the raid needs your Seal of Insight procs more than you need them for yourself. Which means, for probably the first time in many, many months, we will have an open glyph slot. Let's take a look at what could possibly fill that empty space, both in our hearts and our glyphs tab.

Thanks orangetom. You are correct about my journey and what a journey it has been. This has become the only venue I have that I can share my thoughts, beliefs and views. As you surmised, correctly I might add, the usual suspects do indeed seek to place labels on me. My wife and I are worlds apart on this subject although she has been on a journey as well. I fear for her as I don't think she believes in herself enough to continue the journey, there is much doubt and fear in her.
Yes..indeed Rykuss...Journey indeed. "The Usual Suspects" is sort of a generic term I often use to describe what I tend also to call "Wildlife in it's natural habitat." Often associated with life in the fast food lane. Little thinking going on..mostly emoting...or instant gratification values at work. Often needing and demanding to be "Flash danced " through life's hurdles at someone else's expense or "RISK."
Sometimes Rykuss this is even done by members of your own family.
It is not unusual that ones other half would be so different as women and men are quite different in what they value or from the position they think.
With most men or males of any conscience and responsibility they tend to think from a position of RISK Taking...and weigh out much of their thinking from this position and starting point.
With women and females it tends today to be more from a position of "options"...hence the tendency not to desire to take RISKS or be subject to information's detailing RISKS...or things outside of the comfort zone.
Males of good conscience are not afforded the luxury and option of fear in like manner to the female in this social structure. This is also politic and the nature of politic. It means that some people are more expendable and disposable while "Equality " is happening. It just happens to be one which is often carried out by default...even by the males.
To be able to live for your fears..in a system where someone else by default takes the RISK out of life..means options....a security blanket. This is very much how the body politic works..which is why they can easily pass of this nonsense like. "Tax the Rich." They are willing to make one group expendable and disposable for votes from the easily emoted. Understand now? All the while trying to teach and preach equality...and fairness...at someone else's expense ..preferably not the expense of the body politic. Got it now??
"No one sees what we do."
If you know what you are reading you can find this too in the Word.
The word for something hidden..not seen or understood by the majority of people out here...but known only by the adepts trained in it is..."Occult."
Meaning hidden..concealed.
What you are looking for is answers to things ..not ordinarily seen by the naked eye..trained only in instant gratification results..and emotions.
This requires a different thinking, a different work, a different knowledge base from which to start. Different tools.
The eye/spirit must be disciplined with different tools..different knowledge such that it can filter out all the confetti of this world. And there is alot of confetti out here.
By the way...in case you have not surmised by now..Much of Politics is very very feminine. Of the flesh and the things of the flesh. But it uses a very peculiar spirit to achieve it's goals.
One of subtlety and deception to move and motivate people. And much of politics is Occult.
This is one of the problems with your candidate..he does not appeal to the flesh of most ..per se. Only to those who have given up much of the flesh. He is not selling dreams where it can be done on the government dole..without RISK and with someone else paying for it. With a system in place to take the RISK out of life for us...as the feminine desire.
He is saying ..get the government out of almost all of it...and the people take care of it themselves. A very very dangerous position to take today.
Dangerous to government and whoever is the government ...privily, secretly.
As for this..and your wife.
I fear for her as I don't think she believes in herself enough to continue the journey, there is much doubt and fear in her.
The time draws nigh..when she will not have the choices or options at hand about the journey. Nor will the rest of us. It is going to be a shock to many.
Time to gird your loins so to speak.
Recently my son has come to the conclusion that he does not believe in God. I'm not certain that his belief hasn't been negatively impacted based on peer pressure, the way he has been treated by the clergy, a combination of the two or a genuine calling into question of his beliefs.
That is fine Rykuss. No problem. This is to be expected in a world raised on the fast food lane of thinking. It was designed and engineered to be this way. You see the results of this in much going on here on these boards...and in this world surrounding us.
I am going to tell you how I know that this works. You don't have to buy into this of course but it will happen whether you or I are ready for it or not. For we are not the pivotal cog in this wheel. We are not the determiner. Nor is your son.
Chosen people do not decide...they do not choose..they are chosen. They are plucked out of the dregs that this world really is. We do not have a choice in it. When it happens ..God will call us and put His work into our hearts/souls. We will not be able to stop it. And furthermore ...God will lead us onto paths in which certain peoples and events will occur or be put in front of us to our benefit and education...but for His purposes. This is not up to us.
The popular method of most Churches today is "You choose...you accept...you decide...it is all up to you. None of it is up to you or us.
Chosen people don't choose. They are chosen.
God's people don't accept...they are made acceptable to Him...and for His purposes.
The total opposite of what is taught in most churches today.
The pattern of.... You choose, you decide...you accept..you put your monies in the box....this comes from paganism...it is not Christian.
Your son is correct to not believe in most of what passes for Christianity today. He may not know why ..but his instincts are correct. For many of the Churches are teaching and preaching pagan doctrine dressed up to look and smell like Christian to those who do not know. This too is Occult...much like politics. And who is in bed with the churches...politics...through the tax system...price supports for the churches. Understand why they are teaching the opposite of Christianity?? Understand now?? Got it?? It looks and smells like Christian to those who do not know..but it is not.
If God wants you or your son or anyone else...you will have no choice. He will pluck you out of this corrupted world and put His way and Word into you.
Whenever someone tells me I have to accept...warning bells/flags go up immediately ..and my radar ratchets up several notches. I think that in time you too will learn this...and not by choice.
Our daughters,.... Their concerns at the moment are typical for teenage girls nearing graduation, namely their car, texting and whatever happened on that show they watch with their mother.
This is not unusual..this is part of that "options" the safety net so many people desire. It is also why you see me making a point of those with mostly a television and movie education..in the flesh ..and the things of the flesh. If you do not catch on to it...people begin to think what is on the television and movies is an entitlement...deserved..preferably with someone else taking the RISK to bring it to them. Be warned of this kind of thinking...male and female both. Particularly as the male also becomes more feminized today. For he will begin to think and expect just like a female....just like a politician.
And you can see that on these boards too.
I am not well educated, I have no problem admitting that, which is the driving force behind instilling the value of it to my children. Most of my knowledge comes from my experiences. I have had some experiences in my life that defy belief and fortunately a few were shared by others, which helps affirm that I am not crazy. Having shared or tried to share these experiences with my wife has always made her feel very uncomfortable. She doesn't like to hear about them and will not listen to them anymore.
I too am not well educated. Mostly self taught and self read. As I said ..nothing wrong with education if you know you are getting an education and not confetti.
With me too it is certain experiences.
It is not unusual for women and very feminine men not to want to know about experiences which will take them out of their safety zone or comfort zone.
This is an important key to understanding the nature of a man and being a man in this world. It is also a key in understanding the nature of this world surrounding us.
I will tell you something about most women and also the feminne...they can spot confidence in another person from miles away in the dark...like radar.
They may be afraid of their own shadow...but they very quickly know who is not. Even faster than most men. I am not kidding you here. If nothing else ..their fears teach them this skill.
Often as a man...you will find yourself walking alone and doing things alone for the benefit of your family/loved ones. While you are out here taking these RISKS...no one is coming to help you. No one is coming to RESCUE you..to Flash Dance you through these hurdles.. should you be hurt or possibly killed. You must often navigate everything alone...and bring the fruits back to a people who do not want to know how they got there...they just want the buffet line set up without knowing how it was done. Understand?? This is also how politics works. It is also what they are teaching in public schools...that we deserve things because we are good people...preferably without RISK. Entitlement. And who pays for Public education???
No one asks what you had to do to get it there...they just want and expect it to be there. Like on television and in the movies.
This is often how a man works and takes first place RISKs to keep an maintain a home in which he often comes in last..sometimes behind the dog and pets.
Do you know some of these men??
It is because of these experiences that I began to question the world around me. I tried to ignore them for so long, bury my head in the sand and just go through the motions of life, religious services, work, etc. However there is only so much I could ignore
You are correct to question the world around you for much of it...like politic ..is not the product advertised. And you cannot forever bury your head in the sand. Also ..after awhile just the motions will not be sufficient.
However ..when you begin to see it for what it is...you will find the world outside your door severely lacking.
The problem comes when you realize that someone is letting the world creep into your home by default and taking over...running things and supplanting your thinking and values with the values of the world outside your door and expecting you to keep up and even take the RISKS to make it so..while they sit back and watch/expect. This will come to a crossroads at some time...some point.
In case you do not understand it..I will explain it to you in different terms. I may have stated this on these boards before ...but I don't think so to you.
To a man who knows...Peace is the most valuable commodity he can get in this world. Peace...not Piece...understand now??
If he takes up with a woman or a woman and children..Peace is still the most valuable commodity he can get from even her....not Piece.
How many men do you know who understand this concept?? If so few men understand this ...how many women do you know who understand this as well...in lieu of the fast food lane type thinking?? How many children...or do the children think the home is for them exclusively and they are running the show through Mom??
Peace means his home is a place where he is protected from the outside world..safe to come home to for REST..and quiet. Not the outside world intruding on him constantly.
How many women do you know who understand the concept of Peace ...verses Piece??
Is this too ..hidden and occult from most of the people out here?? Do you not think that politics is capable of taking advantage of this ignorance in most of the people out here?? What do you think they are teaching in public schools..Peace or Piece??? Understand now??
Do you not think that without this knowledge and foundation most of the young people out here are going to be lost and going around in circles until they begin to think for themselves?? Or acquire the tools/knowledge/wisdom to think for themselves??
Does this sound crazy??
All I can do to ease his concerns at this point is assure him that he is not alone and that I have had the same experiences as well.
Your job as a man and father is to steady him out and teach him..prepare him as if you were a rudder for the day when he will indeed have to walk alone..as I am certain you have had to do yourself. To walk alone ...no safety net under him....and to survive. To teach him to navigate....to steer his own rudder. And not just him but your other children as well.
This is what a father of good conscience does for his flock....as a Sheperd.
And in due time..teach your son what is necessary to Sheperd his own flock.
On the matter of history, I recall my mono-toned teachers and their apparent lack of enthusiasm for teaching the subject. It's amazing that anyone would pursue a profession such as that after being subjected to such lessons. I felt that not much importance was placed on it then just as it is today with my own children. However I find myself fascinated with it because I feel it is important and that there is a lot of history lost to us, or omitted.
Absolutely correct..spot on here. I too remember the monotoned teachers on just about any topic.
Do not mistake a monotone for lack of importance. It is up to us to recognize the importance of a thing. I did not get my interest in history from public school teachers. I learned this instinctively on my own....er...perhapsed with divine guidance on the side. I found most of school..absolutely boring and barely got through...Cs and Ds..a B here or there..but not much else.
It is indeed important Rykuss. For I believe you see and sense with many of the posts here the lack of the grasp of history and what came before us...and it's relationship to what is happening here today....as much of it seems to be repeating itself in spite of our technology.
And Yes...I too discovered that much of our important History and knowledge's surrounding this history is missing...to be confirmed by people like the Luciferians I mentioned in a previous post...and others...even certain Elders in the Church.
Let me give you this one and it was many yeas before they finally broadcast this story on the History Channel with these very details.
Charlie used to run a store room where we used to go for certain specific tools and hydraulic seals. We would sometimes go there for lunch as he had better accommodations than had the rest of us.
During lunch one evening..the 2nd shift..being a bunch of loud mouthed youngsters compared to olde Charlie...we got to talking about nuclear war and Armageddon.
And Olde Charlie blurts out that he was involved in an unusual experiment back when he was in the Navy as a crewman on an ocean going tugboat.
You see..Olde Charlie...was assigned with alot of other Navy tugboats to tow many olde battleships and cruisers to an anchorage around a island in the Pacific Ocean. They had alot of science types with them..Geeks if you prefer..telling them where to put and move these ships like furniture for Momma.
Then one day they were told to move way way way back...away from everything and told to lie down on the deck and not look up until they were told to do so.
It was only then ..when the explosion took place that they had any clue as to what they had been doing.
But Charlie told me a couple of things which were shockers to me at that time.
They had towed barges loaded with animals in cages...goats, sheep , dogs, cattle, and tied them up to these ships. He told me to my astonishment that not all the ships sunk...and not all the animals died...right away.
But alot of things were contaminated with radioactive particles and they needed to spray them down with water before stepping aboard many of these ships.
Also he told me that they did these tests twice. One was an air burst ...so many thousands of feet above the ships..and the other an underwater burst...to see the results. Most of the photos you see..is of the underwater burst.
When Olde Charlie finished his tale...we "Youngsters" were left there with our mouths hanging open...speechless. We were astonished to be privy to such an tale...by someone who lived and breathed it.
I remember Olde Charlie to this day for both this tale and teaching me how to properly sharpen items on a bench grinder. To this day I can sharpen drill bits on a bench grinder by hand due to Olde Charlie's careful instruction. I don't buy many drill bits when mine get dull. I take them to my bench grinder wheel.
It was many years later when this tale finally was told on the History Channel with all the details that Charlie outlined...including that animals were put on these olde ships.
I have also been privileged to see the engine from the Civil War Ironclad USS Monitor when it was brought to dry dock here...as the holding tank was not quite finished for it up at the Mariners Museum up further in Newport News.
The engine hung upside down in the dry dock here for about 5 days with salt water spraying on it before the tank was finished.
It was again a privilege to see history itself before the bulk of the public was granted access.
When you know about history it is humbling to stand before such a item and wonder about the people who actually lived and breathed it.
So that is a nutshell version of my story. I've seen and experienced things that the world around me has no explanation for. All of these things are supposedly not connected according to the world around me, even on these forums they have different sections. My instincts tell me they and the world around me are connected. I'm just trying to figure out how, all while trying to live a "normal" life, if such a thing is possible.
They are connected ..but just not in a manner obvious to most peoples..not obvious to most naked eyes...to the limited spirit of most peoples.
Do not let it drive you crazy...as you attempt to look across the abyss...you do not want to wind up institutionalized as was the case of the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche.
In process of time...if you are faithful...the answers will be revealed to you as they have been revealed to others. You will also learn how to question what you have learned for validity..as well as question much of what the world attempts to feed you. You will learn how to navigate the abyss..or just bypass the whole thing as not worth the time.
LOL LOL LOL...Rykuss.."a normal life" if such a thing were possible.
Indeed Sir. As the world around us moves more and more to extreme seduction and deceit....be very careful as to what they try to sell you and your family this year or the next...as "normal." Be Warned here.
As a Sheperd ..your concerns for your family are correct.
Thank you for your time and posts,

Paris has a lot of amazing parks to visit and one of the best is the Buttes-Chaumont Park located at the northeastern part of this famous city. What made this park so unusual is the way it was uniquely built on a massive outcropping of rock. The location is very unlikely as most parks are built on a more leveled section of landscape. There is another unique feature of this park in that it boasts of a twenty-story difference between its highest and lowest elevations. Because of this amazing landscape, it has lost the "evil reputation" that it had originally held during the 18th century and has instead become a widely appreciated location that is constantly wooing new visitors.
There is a circular lake at the Buttes that is centrally located in this beautiful park. There is also a steep 16-story mountain of rock that stands at the center of it. Tourists quickly learn to settle into the interesting landscape here and can enjoy an entire day either with the kids or with a romantic partner.

Sweet Potato Station: 30 Sweet and Savory Dishes
With origins in Peru, sweet potatoes were introduced to the rest of the world by Christopher Columbus. It wasn't until the mid 1700s that the term sweet potato was used to distinguish it from the more common white potato. They have now become a staple during the fall season and for good reason: they are packed with vitamin A, potassium, and antioxidants, and loaded with a rich flavor.
