Choral Groups Produce
'Festival of Christmas'
"Monganga," a full-color film
on missionary medicine, will be
t e r.i,-;-ht at 7 p, . n-. . the c.:el
lege chapel by the Foreign Mis-sions
FILMED in a remote native vil-lage
in the Belgian Congo, "Mon-ganga"
is the story of medical
missionary John Ross. John Gun-ther,
author of the best seller In-side
Africa, is the film's principal
This film, which was first shown
on a nation-wide color television
program has been described as a
documentary in which "beautiful
photography, skillful editing, and
a script of simple directness com-bined
to tell an inspiring story"
(Jay N. Tuck, New York Post).
TO REFLECT the dedication of
Dr. Ross and to indicate the full
scope of his activities, the Smith,
Kline, and French camera crew
filmed him making the rounds in
his hospital compound.
ON A HALF-DAY TRIP up the
Momboyo river, a visit was made
to a primitive, semi-pygmy tribe
deep in the jungle.
Open House
For Residences
Held Dec. 15
Bodien and Edgren residences

OPEN HOUSE will take place
simultaneously in both dormitor-ies.
Light refreshments will be
served in the Bodien residence
All dormitory residents have
been asked to decorate their rooms.
Prizes will be awarded for the
room in each dormitory voted by
visitors as most attractively dec-orated.
ACCORDING to Elaine Johnson,
Bodien dorm council representa-tive,
all students, faculty, families
and friends of Bethel are invited
to attend.
Combining music by the college
choir, male chorus, girls' chorus,
and Virgil Hale, and an art pro-duction,
a "Festival of Christmas"
will be held Friday and Saturday,
Dec. 13 and 14, at 8 p.m. in the

Zeta/a to
Speaker Praised
Dear Editor,
Dr. Bob Smith's recent chapel
lectures on Christian companion-ship
were among the best chapel
talks this school year. Evidence
of this could be seen in the in-creased
chapel attendance and in-terest
among students.
Since "Dr. Bob" is a member of
our own faculty, why can't he be
used more often as a speaker on
our campus ? Perhaps a special
week similar to Missions and
Deeper-Life Weeks could be sched-uled
with this professor as the
speaker. His ministry on the cam-pus,
I feel, would be just as bene-ficial
as that of most outside
speakers and ministers.
Express Thanks
Dear Editor,
Thank you for the wide coverage
of the Missions Week, not only in
well-written articles, but also in
the many pictures.
I should also express apprecia-tion
to students working on the
International Dinner and to the
speakers, Majeed Khan and Vasant
Merchant, both attending the Uni-versity
of Minnesota, in the words
of many of the international stu-dents,
"Thank you for inviting us.
I would enjoy coming again next

FMF President
They're Just Different
The greatest single problem on the modern college campus is
women. I don't want anyone to think I am against them being here.
It's just that from a strictly academic point of view, they are no help.
Neither do I want anyone to think I'm blaming them for being
a problem. After all, they can't help being what they are. Nor do I
think their motives in being here are the issue. There are many women
who finally decide to get an education when other motives fail. The
problem is that they are women, and as women they do everything
HAVE YOU EVER tried studying in our library ? I find it almost
impossible. I just get Plato's Republic open and try to decipher the
reasoning in it when a cute girl strolls by.
She doesn't simply take off her coat and sit down. No, she has
to sit down first and then begin to wriggle out of it, a feat that
would do credit to a hula dancer. My mind is abruptly pulled out of
Plato's Republic and brought back to the Republic of the United
States. Here I am, trying to study two extreme opposites: logic and
I ASKED THE girl sitting next to me in one class, "Did you have
to change your hairdo twice on Friday ?" She simply smiled confidently,
swept the room with her eyelashes, and corrected, "Three times!"
WHAT HAPPENS when I go to the dining hall to enjoy my meal
in a perfectly normal way ? I just get finished hoisting the soup bowl
and pouring the contents down my throat, or I get my head comfortably
slung down between outspread elbows to facilitate shoveling when I
find myself facing an outraged disciple of Emily Post.
She may not say anything, but her expression speaks volumes,
and all because of the presence of one woman, I have to revise the
procedure of my entire meal.
I CERTAINLY don't begrudge the women of Bethel an education,
but from this day forward, I am resolved they will not interfere with
my getting an education. I shall carry on as though they were not
here. Looking neither to the right nor to the left, I will press toward
my highest goal of the emancipation of manhood from the slay - -
Fright! My glasses have steamed up again! Does that girl have to
walk past this table ?
Swanson Comments on Council
This is the second in the series of interviews
with the senate councils. This is with Dick Swan-son,
chairman of the religious council.
Question: Who works with you on your council?
Answer: Glenn Ogren, Sylvia Jackson, Carroll
Erickson, Roger Bear, and Warren Nelson. Dr.
Curtis is our advisor.
Q: How is the council divided up as far as dut-ies
for the members?
A: Glenn, as vice-chairman, is in charge of fin-ances
mostly. He has charge of the missionary of-fering;
that is, its collection and disbursement.
Sylvia, as secretary, keeps the council meeting's
minutes and makes out reports to the senate and
council on their plans and projects.
CARROLL, the Christian service chairman, help-ed
set up the gospel teams with the Christian
service director at the beginning of the year. He
helps to see that they continue to function. He is in
charge of the tract rack in cooperation with Dave
Langlett and acknowledges gifts from the churches
that donate to the school because of gospel teams.
Roger, as devotional chairman, has charge of
setting up the dormitory prayer meetings and see-ing
that they continue.
Q: What are your functions?
A: WE DETERMINE and direct the collection of
the missionary offering for the school. This year
the goal of $5,000 is to go directly to the foreign
missionary endeavors of our conference.
We are in charge of Monday chapel services and
one or two Wednesday vesper services each month.
For these, we try to vary the programs; presenting
various aspects of Christian service, showing films,
and encouraging the devotion of the student. We
try to have student participation when possible.
WE MAINTAIN the tract rack, support the gos-pel
team efforts, and promote the dorm prayer
We have a representative work with the Special
Weeks committee that sponsors and directs Deeper
Life and Missions weeks.
The Foreign Missions fellowship is also a function
of the council although it is a student movement.
When necessary we give them financial support.
Q: What goals or objectives do you have?
A: ULTIMATELY, we want to promote a higher
spiritual life for every student, that each one might
be stronger for having been here. To do this we
try to promote to some degree of a religious atmos-phere
on campus. We try to balance off the cul-tural
and social activities with religious ones.
Q: Are you succeeding in your plans?
A: We are very pleased at the quality of pro-grams
that have been presented and the atten-dance
at them. We hope to maintain these. Un-fortunately
though, we are not meeting the mis-sionary
Q: How are you financed?
A: We receive twenty per cent of the Student
Senate budget.
Q: How is it. used?
A: FOR TRACTS for the tract rack, we spent $75
last year. We rent some films for Wednesday
evenings and sponsor special programs that cost
money. We support the FMF financially on some
Q: What are your major problems?
A: We want to present good programs at the
meetings; having good balance, variety, and quality.
We have a hard time determining what the stu-dents
would like on Wednesday nights.
Q: What is your value to the campus?
A: BECAUSE THIS is a religiously founded and
oriented college, religious functions are necessary.
An organization to direct these activities is neces-sary.
We don't try to compete with other groups
but try to co-ordinate our work with theirs. As a
council we are pleased with the religious spirit that
is apparent this year and want to do our best to
maintain it.

Editorials Cultural
Social Living Considered Calendar
Although it might be somewhat early, perhaps it would be wise
for us to think about some resolutions for the new year. A few that
we might consider would be in our personal decorum and conduct in
our social living.
RESOLVED: to learn and practice correct social conduct at con-certs
and plays. The excessive and rhythmic clapping, the boisterous
guffawing, hub-bub, and the pre-performance shouting exhibit the
maturity of a high school freshman. Certainly college students should
act a little more sensibly and respectably at concerts, such as the one
presented by the Madrigal Singers, than they do here.
COURTESY SHOULD be shown to the rest of the audience as well
as the performers.
'Closely akin to this is our conduct in the daily chapel. If one must
talk, giggle, and study during the hour, it is best not to do this in
chapel. The opening hymn is not the signal to become quiet and rever-ent;
this should begin when you enter the chapel.
RESOLVED: to dress more respectably for social occasions. Con-certs
should not be attended in clothes that are fit only for ditch dig-ging.
Surely it would not be too hard for the men to slip on a tie and
sport coat or for the girls to wear dressier clothes for the more formal
There might be a place to wear tight Levis, bermuda shorts, or
paratrooper boots, but let's show a little more discretion as to where
this place is.
RESOLVED: to act more like human beings than pigs at the
dinner table. A meal is a social occasion, but some show no more man-ners
or graces than the animals in the sty. At times students stand
in line for thirty minutes waiting for the meal and then inhale it in
less than five. Whole meals have been eaten without anyone saying
anything except perhaps that the potatoes were a little harder today
than yesterday. One hardly ever sits and talks with people outside his
close acquaintance and sex.
IT MIGHT BE well for us to determine to spend at least twenty
minutes at a meal, to wait until the others are finished, and to act
with more social awareness than is now shown.
Such comments as this should not be necessary for college stu-dents,
but, for our own self-respect and the respect of others that are
watching us, changes are necessary.
Something To Think On
by L. Van Heerden
". make every effort to supplement your faith with
virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control,
and self-control with steadfastness .. ." II Pet. 2:5-6
Peter seems to think that no one Christian "virtue" can stand
alone. It needs a complementary virtue. Why is this?
SOMEONE HAS wisely warned that any virtue can become a vice.
There is much truth to this statement. For instance, a courageous
man can easily become a rash and dangerous desperado if he suc-cumbs
to his courage instead of recognizing it as only one aspect
of living.
SIMILARLY we can see how self-respect may easily degenerate
into pride, faith into folly, humility into humbug, enthusiasm into
fanaticism, "separation" into snobbery, leadership into dictatorship,
co-operation into compromise, discipline . . . cruelty, purity . . . prudery,
comfort . . . luxury, compassion . . . sentimentality, and so on. The list
is almOst endless.
The descriptive words chosen may not be the very best in every
case, but the basic principle is obvious; no virtue can stand alone. It
can so easily "rule the roost" and become a vice.
CHURCH HISTORY is littered with half-made men who hounded
their "hobby-horses" all the way to Hell. Few have been those who had
insight into the multiplicity of maturity and who learned to develop
and control the variety of forces necessary for successful Christian

Royals Triumph Over LaCrosse 83 - 81
The Bethel Royals took over the lead midway in the first half and held on to defeat a stubborn La-
State college five, 83-81 last Saturday on the home court.
a 67-55 Bethel second-half margin by tallying 13 consecutive points to lead
From then on, Pommerenke and Young matched baskets
three minutes left to play.
WITH BETHEL leading 81-79
and 28 seconds remaining, Botten-field
iced the victory hitting one
of two free throws. A last min-ute
La Crosse field goal and Porn-merenke's
free throw marker ended
the game 83-81.
Coach Peterson's men trailed
the visting team the first ten
minutes before scoring five con-secutive
points to push ahead 24-
22. The Royals maintained a slim
margin the remainder of the first
half to lead midway in the game,
Within two minutes of the sec-ond
half, La Crosse tied it 44-44.
Sparked by Pommerenke's four
quick field goals, the Royals were
equal to the fired-up La Crosse
team and soon built up their 12
point lead 67-55.
WES YOUNG was outstanding
for Bethel hitting 27 points and
seventy percent of his shots. Pom-merenke
and Bottenfield got 23 and
20 points respectively. Becker,
Knoner, and Young did good work
on rebounds.
For the losers, Winiarski dump-ed
in 20 points, Ammerman 19,
and Robbins 15. An eager, hustling
team, La Crosse high-lighted their
offensive attack with successful
fast breaks that often caught the
Royals with little back court pro-tection
and defense.
ACTUALLY the Bethel cagers
won the game at the charity line.
They matched La Crosse with 34
field goals and tallied 15 of 19
free throws. The Royals hit forty
percent of the field goal attempts
compared to fifty percent for their
After watching the Royals win their first two contests, it seems
safe to say that Bethel has the makings of a good club. Pommerenke
and Bottenfield are constant scoring threats in the guard positions.
Wes Young, sophomore transfer student from California, has averaged
25 points in the first two games and could be the team's big man this
season. At the other forward position, Knoner has looked the best.
Borms has not yet equaled his play last year, but he should develop
soon. Turnquist, with more experience, should also improve. Big Don
Becker fills the center slot and has the potential of being high scorer
and rebounder for the Royals.
BETHEL DEFINITELY has more bench strength and scoring
ability this year. However, much of their scoring has been done by
long set or jump shots beyond the free throw circle. Their scoring
potential would be much better balanced if they could work the ball
in closer more often. Center Don Becker rarely has handled the ball
except for rebounds, and Bethel lay-ups and close-in shots have been
infrequent. With more of a scoring punch near the basket as well as
farther out, the Royals could be hard to beat.
THE RECENT ORGANIZATION of the new Bethel Pep club, the
Royalettes, should give the team stronger game support. Contact one
of the cheerleaders to join these boosters, gals . . . A tip of the Royal

first game with Milwaukee Inst. Tech. is December 13 . . . Due to Thanks-giving
vacation, only 100 fans saw the La Crosse - Bethel game, one
of the best games Bethel will probably play this year.
ACCORDING TO THE "St. Paul Dispatch," the profits made from
the traditional Army-Navy game (won last Saturday by Navy 14-0)
are almost enough to support the annual entire athletic programs of
the two service schools. This is a little different from Bethel, where
football and athletics is paid for almost completely by the students.
Perhaps we should schedule a game with Army or Navy next year .. .
Many sports writers have doubted that Ohio State, this year's Big
Ten champion and Rose Bowl entry, is the league's best football team.
They contend that Michigan State, rudely upset by Purdue for its
only loss, is the best squad. Certainly the All-Big Ten player selections
made last week by the United Press back up this belief. The selections
included six Michigan State gridders on the top eleven and only two
men from Ohio State.

Proycling's Analysis: This stage is based in Drenthe and starts in Assen once again. It loops back to the province's capital twice before heading to the southern part of the region and finishing in Emmen. The countryside is flat and open, so a sprint looks guaranteed. There is one climb but the specialists won't be impressed – the hill at Witteveen only rises to 30m.
Culture Vulture: Emmen is best known for the Dierenpark, one of Europe's biggest zoos, which attracts almost two million visitors a year.
Local hero: The Vuelta will be a key goal for Rabobank as well as for fellow Dutch outfit Vacansoleil. Among those scheduled to be part of the Rabobank team to make his major tour debut is highly rated climber Bauke Mollema, who hails from nearby Groningen. A Tour de l'Avenir winner in 2007, he's continued to impress at the ProTour level and shone in the Tour of California at the start of this year. However, the 22-year-old has been hit by glandular fever this season, so whether he'll actually make it to the start in Assen is still in doubt
Vuelta Retro: Alessandro Petacchi stands second in the all-time list of Vuelta stage winners. The Italian has 19 stage wins under his belt but lags behind 1945 winner Delio Rodríguez's total of 39.
Neil Stephens says: You'll really have to keep a close eye on teams like Rabobank - it's in their territory - and there's also Quick Step. It's a pretty technical type of circuit with lots of corners, left and right turns, roundabouts... . You have to be on the edge of your seat all day. It's not a battle for us to pick that day - it's a sprinters' day and we've got no sprinter, so we just have to make sure we don't lose any time through crashes or mechanicals, etc. Guys like Allan Davis, Andre Greipel, Tyler Farrar (are the ones to watch). It'll be one of those guys that day (who takes the win).

Embarcadero's latest update to its Oracle-focused developer toolset is released this week. DB PowerStudio is intended to streamline the development, administration, and optimization of Oracle databases and is available in a Developer Edition and a DBA Edition. The company says that DB PowerStudio for Oracle complements the basic capabilities within Oracle Enterprise Manager and offers tools that are more graphical than Oracle's own tools.
DB PowerStudio Developer Edition provides a new Rapid SQL tool, which is essentially an integrated development environment that simplifies SQL scripting, query building, object management, and version control in live databases or offline source code repositories.
It also includes a new DB Change Manager function, which tracks and reports on database changes, rolling out new releases and pinpointing the cause of performance problems stemming from changes in data, schema, and database configuration. It also allows test data to be masked to comply with privacy mandates.
There is also DB Optimizer, a graphical SQL performance optimization tool that allows users to discover, diagnose, and optimize poor-performing SQL with an interactive Visual SQL Tuner.
"Though Oracle has its own toolset, users have come to rely on third-party database tools like Embarcadero's because they provide better coverage of new and older databases and are known to boost IT staff productivity by at least 20 percent," said Scott Walz, senior director of product management for Embarcadero. "With DB PowerStudio for Oracle, database professionals get an enterprise-grade toolset that streamlines their day-to-day tasks, and provides database change management and SQL optimization and tuning capabilities."

Halo: Spartan Assault Fights its Way to an Xbox One Release Date
The twin-stick shooter previously only available on Windows Phones will make its way to the Xbox One just in time for Christmas.
Microsoft announced on Monday Halo: Spartan Assault would land on Xbox One on Dec. 24. According to Xbox Wire, Spartan Assault will retail for $14.99. The action title starring Sarah Palmer will run at 60fps in 1080p, and will also include all additional content from the mobile version.
Additionally, co-op will be included on the Xbox One. "Co-op will work through Xbox Live and will allow you to play with a friend," said executive producer Dan Ayoub. "We wanted to do something completely new for the game that featured really crazy action against waves of enemies. For this reason, we're putting you up against the Flood! Players will work together against huge waves of enemies bearing down on them."
It's not Halo 5, but at least the Xbox One will have a Halo title all its own while we wait for bigger and better things. Xbox 360 owners will still have to wait until January 2014 to get their hands on Halo: Spartan Assault.

Why prison camps not a campaign issue this time
In 2007, Mitt Romney set himself apart from the pack of presidential candidates by staking out an extreme position on the prison camps at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. He said he wanted to "grow them" at a time when both Barack Obama and John McCain were advocating closure to improve America's standing in the world.
This time around, it's not even part of the presidential campaign conversation.
When asked, spokesmen for the candidates couldn't muster anything more than canned talking points — Romney will keep them, Obama still wants to close them. And there's no evidence that either man has raised the issue along the campaign trail where the economy is the chief concern but national security is never far behind.
The most prominent mention so far came in Clint Eastwood's conversation with an empty chair at the Republican National Convention in Tampa. "Why close it? We spent so much money on it."
Congress' straight-jacketing legislation may explain it. Once Obama sought to make good on his 2008 campaign pledge by ordering his administration to close the camps by Jan. 22, 2010, Congress replied with a succession of financial and bureaucratic restrictions on the prison and the prisoners that today make a policy debate on the topic largely theoretical.
"It's been neutralized as an issue for both sides. Whether they like it or not, the reality is there will be detainees detained at Guantánamo Bay for as long as you can see into the future," said Steve Schmidt, senior campaign advisor in 2008 to McCain.
Congressional restrictions also forced the Obama administration to retreat on Attorney General Eric Holder's vow to hold a civilian Sept. 11 terror trial in Manhattan, not far from 9/11's Ground Zero. The capital case is instead being prosecuted before a military commission at the Navy base in southeast Cuba.
Guantánamo is "not on the mind of out-of-work Ohio auto workers who may determine the outcome of this election," Schmidt said. "Scoring points on Guantánamo Bay denies you the opportunity to score points on the economy. If Mitt Romney can't make an economic case he won't win the election."
For the record, White House national security spokesman Tommy Vietor said there's no change in the presidential policy that seeks to close the camps that cost $800,000 a year per prisoner: "The president has made clear that the policy of this administration is to do what is clearly in our national security interest — to close the detention facility at Guantánamo."
Getting there is more complicated. The Democrats' 2008 platform bluntly pledged closure. The Guantánamo passage in the 2012 platform is more nuanced: "We are substantially reducing the population at Guantánamo Bay without adding to it," it says. "And we remain committed to working with all branches of government to close the prison altogether because it is inconsistent with our national security interests and our values."
Neither the 2008 nor 2012 Republican platforms make mention of Guantánamo, meaning Romney's most detailed vision comes from a May 2007 Fox News debate among McCain, Romney and Rudolph Giuliani at the University of South Carolina.
"I don't want them on our soil," Romney said then. "I want them on Guantánamo, where they don't get the access to lawyers they get when they're on our soil. I don't want them in our prisons. I want them there. Some people have said we ought to close Guantánamo. My view is we ought to double Guantánamo."
The Romney campaign won't elaborate on what the Massachusetts governor wanted to double that day, when the Pentagon held more than 380 captives.
But since then, the Pentagon has downsized the detention center population by half.
The Bush administration transferred more than 125, the majority to Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia. Then the Obama administration transferred and resettled another 79, many across Europe and to such far-flung places as Palau, Cape Verde and Bermuda. Five captives died.
Today's Guantánamo prisoner population is 166.

When I first saw this pyramid stud bracelet on Annabelle from Viva Luxury, I was in love. But I was not in love with the fact that it was sold out. Being the DIY'er that I am, I was able to source the gold pyramid studs from Ebay and then find the stretch cord at Michael's and voila! Pyramid stud bracelet with supplies to make another one to keep or give away as a gift. Keep reading for the deets below and make your own!
{What You Will Need}
Gold pyramid studs, Ebay
.8mm Stretch cord, Michael's
Paper clip or black binder clip
G-S Hypo cement, Ebay (optional)
- Take your wrist measurement. If you don't know the circumference of your wrist, take a string, wrap it around until the ends meet and you have a comfortable fit, and measure this length.
- Add 3″ to this and cut a piece of stretch cord this length.
- Pre-stretch the cord 2-3 times to ensure your bracelet won't become too big and saggy over time as the cord stretches naturally.
- Attach a clip to the end of the cord. This will prevent the studs from slipping off the end.
- String your studs. Keep stringing until you have a length of studs that matches your wrist circumference + 1″. For example, my wrist is 6″, so I strung a 7″ length of studs. The extra inch makes the fit comfortable but not too loose and allows for the extra length that's taken up by the thickness of the stud. (Just trust me here. Add the extra inch!)
- Tie off your bracelet with an overhand knot. Don't tug the ends closed super tight as this will put too much tension on the cord and not allow you to slip it over your hand. To tie an overhand knot, see the video below.
- *Optional* Dot knot top and bottom why G-S Hypo cement to seal. DON'T use super glue or something of that nature as this will eat away at the stretch cord over time!
- Fin! Enjoy your new pyramid stud bracelet!

No matter where you live, winter is in full swing! For some that means icy sidewalks and snow days while others it means rain drenched streets and chilly temperatures. The best way to combat the winter chills is to make some delicious comfort food. One of my favorite wintertime treats is Black Bean Soup. Today we have a great and simple recipe which is sure to warm you to your toes as well as provide a healthy nourishing vegan dish.
Organic Black Bean Soup
Prep Time: 10 Minutes Cook Time: 30-50 Minutes
Dollop of Vegan Organic Sour Cream (optional)
Soak black beans overnight if you are using dried bean, but canned will work. Dice the carrots, onions, celery, and garlic. Place the beans, vegetable stock, and water in a large pot. Bring this mixture to a boil until beans are nice and soft. Add in the salt, pepper, cumin, garlic, chili powder, and cayenne or paprika. Mix this up and turn the heat down to medium. Add in the onion, carrots, and celery and simmer for about twenty minutes or until vegetables are tender. Garnish with chopped green onion and cilantro. Add a dollop of organic vegan sour cream for an extra treat and serve!

In an exclusive interview with ABC "World News" anchor Diane Sawyer in Copenhagen, Denmark, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad discussed nuclear weapons, the U.S. hikers being detained in Iran and the United States.
DIANE SAWYER: Mr. President, thank you for speaking with us again. If I may begin with three items of news that the American people have heard about this week. I would like to have you to address them if you will. First of all it is: there is a news story critics of Iran saying this is the smoking gun. There is a news report out of England, a document which purports to show that Iran has been testing a neutron initiator which is a trigger for a nuclear weapon, has no civilian use and they now say this is the document that proves it -- have you been testing a neutron initiator?
PRESIDENT AHMADINEJAD: [Ahmadinejad began by reciting a prayer about the 12th Imam in Arabic.] First of all, I would like to express my greetings to the good people of America and I hope that the American people and other nations of the world live in full health and security. I hope that the efforts that are being made in Copenhagen lead to positive results for the betterment of the human society. As far as your question is concerned, I think that some of the claims made by the American and other Western statesmen about our nuclear issue have turned into a repetitive and tasteless joke. They always come up with papers saying that they have got documents. These are all baseless talk. From our point of view, they are of no legal value and not worth paying attention to. Even we are not ready to investigate them.
SAWYER: Would you like to see this document? Is it a joke?
AHMADINEJAD: No, I don't want to see them at all. I don't. Because they are all fabricated bunch of papers continuously being forged and disseminated by the American government. They are of no legal value for us. There is a fact that we should proclaim. The U.S. government is looking for domination over the Middle East region and the world. Its policies are double standard and discriminatory and we oppose these policies. We say this clearly that the nuclear issue and other issues of this kind are just pretexts. It will be good if the U.S. statesmen have got some honesty and speak their mind. They want to dominate the Middle East region, over this political region and over this energy region. The Iranian nation and the Iranian government are huge obstacles. They should have the courage to announce this to the nations in a manly manner. They always come up with these fabricated papers, documents, and excuses -- one day they say it is nuclear, another day human rights. They have become repetitive for us now -- like a repetitive joke that is not funny anymore.
SAWYER: So this is not true?
AHMADINEJAD: They are fundamentally not true. All the American claims are not true -- not only this one, but also the previous ones. We have got written documents from the agency [International Atomic Energy Agency] indicating that these claims have not been true. They asked us six questions that we answered and we received written confirmation from the agency. The agency has announced in 12 official documents that there is not any deviation in Iran.
SAWYER: Another news...
AHMADINEJAD: Who is the American government to talk about our nuclear issue? Who are they? What is the legal position of the American government that gives it the right to comment about our nuclear issue? They should answer who has given them this right? The nations?
SAWYER: But the President has said and the European Union have said that progress must be made on the nuclear issues by the deadline of this year or early next year at the very least and instead, instead, even defenders of Iran are confused because instead of progress, an agreement that was reached on shipping uranium, low grade uranium out of the country to France and to Russia has been backed out on, in addition to that a missile has been launched with discussion of being able to hit Israel, to hit Europe and added to that, there are announcements of more centrifuges for Iranian, for uranium, the question really is: Do you believe there will be stronger, new sanctions? Do you believe there will be a possible strike in the future by Israel?
AHMADINEJAD: I have already given your answer. We think that the American government and some European governments should raise their problem with clarity and honesty. They should say in a manly manner what their problem is. Otherwise, these nuclear allegations have lost their taste from our point of view. There is no ambiguity in Iran. The course of decision making is very clear. Our decisions are completely rational and legal. We announce them with clarity and we aren't afraid of anyone when we declare our decisions. We declare any decision that is based on our national interests and justice very clearly. There is no fear from anyone and therefore we declare our decisions openly. As far as the issue of swapping of fuel is concerned, it was our proposal to do this. Legally speaking, they are obliged to supply Iranian fuel.
SAWYER: But then why change the agreement?
AHMADINEJAD: This is the content of the NPT [Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty]. It is the commitment of IAEA to unconditionally supply our fuel for peaceful consumption. We proposed the idea of swapping fuel in order to give a chance to the American and Western governments to enter into cooperation instead of confrontation. They say they want to give us fuel. We don't care if they don't give. Can they set conditions or deadlines or timelines? This is the literature of Mr. Bush's era. What has changed? We are expecting changes. They want to swap fuel with us, then they come up with deadlines and say until this time. We don't want fuel from Europe and America at all. Is it a sin to say we don't want fuel. Do we have to ask for fuel and on the basis of their conditions? They tell us let's negotiate, then from the other hand they are saying sanctions are coming -- they show the stick.
Respectable lady, the American people, this approach has failed, i.e. raising the stick of sanctions and then saying let's negotiate. It has failed. It's over. It's not repeatable. The world doesn't accept it either. If you want to talk with us under fair conditions, we welcome it. If you are saying you are going to impose sanctions, then go and do it.
SAWYER: (cross talk) Mr. President, many journalists...
AHMADINEJAD: (cross talk) Allow me. We don't welcome confrontation, but we don't surrender to bullying either, whether it is the EU or America or whoever. We don't give in to force. We are people who favor negotiation and logic, but we don't give in to force, whoever it comes from. We expect change to happen. Otherwise, if people want to talk to us with the literature of Mr. Bush, our response is the previous response. There will not be anything new.
SAWYER: May I try a yes or no question?
AHMADINEJAD: To what question?
SAWYER: Many journalists have tried to get a yes or no answer and I'm going to try one more time. Will you say to the American people, tonight, that Iran will never weaponize nuclear material? There will be no nuclear weapon in Iran, ever?
AHMADINEJAD: We have got a saying in Iran which says, "How many times shall I repeat the same thing?" You should say thing only once. We have said once that we don't want nuclear bomb.
SAWYER: No?
AHMADINEJAD: We don't accept it -- finish. You see, the Iranian government and the Iranian people are brave people. And we are frank people, too. Whatever they want to say, they say it with clarity. We said we wanted the fuel production cycle, that was it. And we created it. We said we industrialize it and we did it. Now we announced that we are going to bring in new centrifuges and we will do it. We announced that we were not afraid of resolutions and sanctions and we didn't fear from them. If we had been looking for bombs, we would have had the courage to announce it either. We are not afraid of anyone. We have said it time and again that we don't accept bombs. But now we have got claims and we are saying that America and all those who possess bombs should be disarmed. We will follow this up. They ought to be disarmed. They do not have the right to comment on the nuclear issue until they are disarmed. After they are disarmed, then they will have the right to intervene in the nuclear issue. The reason they are unable to control proliferation in countries in the East of Asia is they have got bombs themselves. If someone has got bombs how can they prevent others from making bombs? But we can, because we don't want bombs and we don't have any. We can disarm [others] and we can also stop proliferation. This is why we have proposed to the agency and to the U.N. to form an independent body for disarmament and proliferation, not those people have got bombs themselves and are sitting there and saying they want to stop proliferation. This is funny. All people of the world are laughing at this.
If the American government is worried about bombs, it should disarm itself first so that the world understands that they are honest. It is very clear this is dishonest.
SAWYER: Did you watch President Obama's speech, accepting the Peace Prize?
AHMADINEJAD: Yes. What shall I say?
SAWYER: And what's the word that....
AHMADINEJAD: Do you think it was right to give the Nobel Peace Prize to Mr. Obama? Yes, or no.
SAWYER: It's up to you, it's up to you...
AHMADINEJAD: Did you agree with the idea of giving the Nobel Prize to him? What has he done for peace in the world? Of course, I know why they have given him the prize. It wasn't because of his performance, because Mr. Obama himself says in his book that they do not give prize to anybody for telling the truth. If has told the truth, then they should not give him a prize.
SAWYER: What's the first word that comes to your mind when you see him giving his speech and him today, what's the first word that describes him to you?
AHMADINEJAD: I don't want to comment on him. We welcomed his slogan of change and we declared that we would help and we did help, i.e. I sent him a message. We had talks in Geneva.
SAWYER: Speaking...
AHMADINEJAD: We had talks in Vienna. We proposed exchanging of fuel. I announced that in my trip to New York I was ready to enter a debate with him. We were expecting substantial changes by him, but his behavior makes us worried.
SAWYER: Speaking...
AHMADINEJAD: Not only his decisions aren't going to lead to any change, but they will even exacerbate the status quo.
SAWYER: Speaking of help, a question if I can about the three American hikers who say that they accidentally wandered into Iranian territory looking at waterfalls. These young people, Shane Bauer, Josh Fattal and Sarah Shourd. You said that you were going to do your best to set them free and to hope that it happened as soon as possible. Are you still going to do your best to set them free?
AHMADINEJAD: Yes, but I have got a question to you. How do you know they have accidentally crossed into Iran? How do you know they were looking for waterfalls and forests? Who has told you this?
SAWYER: Do you have evidence that it was not accidental, young people on a hike, on a vacation?
AHMADINEJAD: Who has told you this? Who has told you this? Are you a judge?
SAWYER: By all examinations...
AHMADINEJAD: Permit me. Have the intelligence agents told you this? It is a judge who should identify whether they have entered accidentally or intentionally. I don't distinguish this and you don't distinguish this. I announced that we don't like anybody to be imprisoned, but if somebody commits a violation, a judge should investigate it. There is law.
SAWYER: Their mothers and their families, in enormous anguish, have asked can they go to see them, can they speak to them by telephone. Will you help arrange that?
AHMADINEJAD: We aren't happy about it either. We are unhappy about all prisoners. We are unhappy about all prisoners. In America, there are 3.5 million prisoners. We are unhappy about all of them. They are also away from their families. But a judge should make the judgment.
SAWYER: They will go on trial?
AHMADINEJAD: I am not a judge. I am not a judge. We should ask the judge. They might be able to do it. I think they have corresponded. We aren't happy with the fact that people are imprisoned, but eventually if somebody commits a violation, the judge will attend to it. There is law.
SAWYER: A question in the news overnight Mr. President. We have heard in the news that Iran has taken over an oil field in southern Iraq near Basra, Oil field No. 4, has this happened? Did you order it?
AHMADINEJAD: I haven't received such news. It might have been produced by the media. Some Western media fabricate the news and then they use it as their substantiation.
SAWYER: Would you disapprove? Would you reverse it?
AHMADINEJAD: I haven't heard such news.
SAWYER: Would you disapprove? Would you reverse it?
AHMADINEJAD: We are friends with Iraq and have got very good relations. We have got a lot of cooperation.
SAWYER: A question also about Iran and as I said we hope so much to be able to return ourselves and see what is happening but we see the videos on the Internet, we see the Twitter calls from the protestors in the street, we see the signs that say "Death to Dictator." You have said that any one in Iran can express their point of view, that it is fully permitted. Are you saying these demonstrators in the next few days can go to the street in any number they want, and they can protest and they will be safe?
AHMADINEJAD: Do you think such a thing exists in America? Can the people there come to the streets whenever they want, say whatever they want?
SAWYER: You can apply for a permit, yes?
AHMADINEJAD: Are you sure?
SAWYER: And they can go to the street and express their opinions, yes?
AHMADINEJAD: Are you sure?
SAWYER: If you apply for a permit...
AHMADINEJAD: During Pittsburgh meeting, there was a demonstration by 1,000 people. The police beat them and attacked them with tear gas and boiling water. A large number of people were arrested. Did they have the permission to demonstrate or had they come there without permission? Did they have the permission or not?
SAWYER: But thousands of people are allowed to come out and criticize the government, routinely.
AHMADINEJAD: It is the same in Iran, but my question to you is, those people who were beaten in Pittsburgh, were arrested and attacked with tear gas, what were they saying? What was their demand? Was it against the law or was it legal? Why were they beaten?
SAWYER: I would like to debate it, but I'm afraid our time is so short. I want to make sure that I ask this question because so many people have written here in the United States about it. They are reporting that there is a division in the Iranian government between you and the Supreme National Security Council. Is there is a division in the Iranian government now between you and the Ayatollah [Ali Hoseyni] Khamenei and the council on nuclear issues? And what about the division we see with the Ayatollah [Hussein-Ali] Montazeri, with [Ayatollah Akbar Hashemi] Rafsanjani taking to the streets to criticize the government.
AHMADINEJAD: Well, in every country -- translate it for me. She didn't get me.
AHMADINEJAD: In Iran we have got freedom, more than what there is in America.
SAWYER: More?
AHMADINEJAD: They are free to speak and demonstrate. Yes, we have got elections in Iran. Whoever wins the most votes forms the government. Some people oppose the government. This is natural. There is no problem. They speak their mind.
SAWYER: But as you know, human rights activists, Amnesty International says 4,000 people were arrested among the protesters, that there have been executions, some of them, mass executions of protestors, striking fear in their hearts.
AHMADINEJAD: These things have to do with the judiciary. We have got laws. There is the judge. These people have got lawyers. These are not political questions. They are judicial and legal questions. In our country, we have got a detailed process of legal investigation. There are five stages of investigation with a review stage included. Of course, the judiciary has not yet announced anything. In Iran, the judiciary is independent. I would like to repeat my question to you. Were human rights considered in relation to those people who were beaten up in Pittsburgh and inhaled poisonous gas, tear gas? There are 3.5 million prisoners in America. Has the legal process been applied in relation to them or have they been arrested illegally? In proportion to the population, the number of prisoners in America is five times as much as that in Iran.
SAWYER: But not political prisoners...
AHMADINEJAD: Do the American people commit more offences or human rights are violated? Which one is true?
SAWYER: Will there be progress in the talks by the end of the year? The nuclear talks? Will you return to the talks and again discuss moving Iranian uranium out of the country or is that over, finished?
AHMADINEJAD: It depends on the other side. We don't have any problem. We are living in accordance with the law and are benefiting from our legal rights. It is them who have got problems with us.
SAWYER: But will you return to talks on nuclear issues?
AHMADINEJAD: It is them who have got problems with us.
SAWYER: Will you reconsider moving the low-level uranium out of the country to be enriched and returned to you for medical reasons?
AHMADINEJAD: Today we can produce our 20 percent fuel, but we haven't blocked the course of talks. We have declared that if they wanted, we are ready to carry on with the talks,
SAWYER: And...
AHMADINEJAD: ....just about exchanging and just about nuclear cooperations and technical cooperations, we are ready to talk. But we can produce ourselves. This is our legal right and we are determined to do it, but we haven't blocked the way for them. We provided the 5+1 with a new opportunity so that if they wanted we could negotiate. But this is not a permanent opportunity.
SAWYER: I think if I may ask one final question. You have three children; a daughter and two sons. ... Grandchildren? Too young?
AHMADINEJAD: Yes, I have got one grandchild, 5 months old, from the daughter. One son and one daughter are married now...
SAWYER: When they grow up, when this 5 month-old-baby grows up, do you hope he will ... what do you hope will be his friendship with America? America's friendship with Iran? What to you is the dream when he grows up, these two countries together?
AHMADINEJAD: We believe that if the American government changes its behavior, we don't have to wait until that child grows up. We can do away with the problems just now. But I can assure you that if the American government doesn't improve its behavior, even in 50 years time, we will have the same situation in Iran, generations after generations will remain the same. The majority of the 25 million people who voted for me are young. And most of those people who didn't vote think like me. Regarding the issue of the need for improvement in the American government behavior, the majority of the Iranian nation agree with each other.
Not only the Iranian nation, but all the nations of the world are united. Everybody wants American to change its behavior, to mend its behavior. Why did they invade Afghanistan? Why did they invade Iraq? Why are they threatening Iran? What do the American forces want in the Middle East? Why are they there? Do we have military forces in your region? Do we have warships, fighter jets, and tanks near the American borders? We don't. It is America that has. Why does it have? Why does it intervene in our region? Have the American interventions improved the situation in our region? Has security been established in the Middle East region? Has terrorism been controlled? Have narcotics been controlled? Or has the situation been worsened?
What has been the result of the American intervention in our region been other than killing, insecurity, and growth of terrorism? They should announce this so that everybody knows. The American government should report on its eight years of aggression on Afghanistan and Iraq. What has been the outcome? They should say, so that we know. They should report to the world. Why don't they report? Do you know that approximately 1 million people have been killed? Do you know that approximately 4 million people have become refugees? Do you know how many women and children have been killed? That the infrastructures of Afghanistan and Iraq have been destroyed? How many American and non-American soldiers have been killed? Who is going to answer for all this? Why has all this happened? What has been the outcome?
Politics is not a joke so that some American politicians come and make decisions like playing a game. It is about the fate of human beings, the lives of human beings, the security of human beings. The 1 million people who have lost lives, had wishes in their lives. They have got families, parents, children. They are human beings. Who is going to answer for all this? We don't like this situation to continue. We feel bad. Why should people be killed? Why should American and European soldiers be killed in Afghanistan? For what? What is the purpose of this war? They should say it clearly what the goal is. What has been the outcome? You cannot run the world like this. We object to this way of running the world. We oppose these policies. We oppose killing people.
And we announce that the American government should change its behavior. They are dealing with Ahmadinejad, not even with Iran. They are dealing with all the nations of the world. You should know, in South America, in Asia, in Europe, in Africa, the vast majority of nations are against the American policies. In this Copenhagen, there have been so many demonstrations, by groups of people. Who were they objecting to? To Iran or America? About the issue of environment, they are opposing the behavior of the American government. We oppose these policies and we announce it very clearly. We have already announced that we are ready to help these wrong policies improve. Mr. Bush was somebody who was only looking to kill. He had such a psychological condition that he enjoyed killing. He was killing the people. But Mr. Obama declared that wanted to bring changes. Where are these changes? What has changed?
SAWYER: Do you believe that President Bush wanted to see people killed?
AHMADINEJAD: It was definitely the case. Then why was he killing the people? Even he was threatening to kill in relation to Iran. I am asking you. Who is responsible for the killing of 1 million people? Why can I not tolerate to see one person being killed. We become very sad when we hear the news of someone having been killed. We try our best to prevent this. Why was he encouraging bombarding and rocketing? Why did he use weakened uranium bullets in Iraq? Do you know how many people have become ill as a result of this in Iraq? I am talking about ordinary people, women and children, not combatants. Why did he not prevent it? If somebody doesn't like something, he would stop it. He would stop killing. They bombarded a wedding celebration in Afghanistan. Eight hundred people were killed. Mr. Bush didn't even apologize. He didn't apologize for the fact that 1 million people were killed. What do you think?
SAWYER: Mr President, I have so many questions, but I am told that you must go. Just one quickly, what do you most hope for in 2010?
AHMADINEJAD: We hope there is peace in the world and wars and occupations come to an end. Animosities come to an end. The new Christian year is approaching. It is the birth of Jesus Christ. Christ is the prophet of peace, the prophet of friendship, the prophet of brotherhood, the prophet of integrity and honesty, the prophet of defending the oppressed. Of course, I would like to congratulate the new year to the American people and hope that we follow the Christ. If somebody says he/she is a Christian, they should follow him. We believe in Christ. He was a prophet of God, a clean human being. If Christ comes back today, we would follow him and we will put his instructions into action.
I would like to ask a question. Which part of the behavior of the American government corresponds with the culture and teachings of Jesus Christ? They should answer themselves. If Christ was here today, would he not punish the American statesmen for the war in Afghanistan and Iraq? Would he not resist them? He would definitely resist them. He wouldn't allow anybody to occupy and invade. He wouldn't allow the innocent people to be killed. We believe Jesus Christ is the prophet of God and try to follow him.
Once again I would like to congratulate the birth anniversary of Jesus Christ to you and the American people.
SAWYER: Thank you again, Mr President, for your time. And hope to see you in Tehran.
AHMADINEJAD: Good luck.

REVIEW in MASSAGE THERAPY JOURNAL: "This DVD is like a reference book for pregnancy massage where you can look up conditions (for example, diastasis recti) and find out how to work with clients with these conditions. But rather than just a description on the flat page, you get a demonstration by the teacher. The teacher is Leslie Stager, a licensed massage therapist and registered nurse who has served as a labor and delivery nurse, childbirth educator and midwifery clinic nurse. She generously shares her expansive knowledge and skills on this sophisticated video, elegantly produced by Real Bodywork. Stager leads you through all aspects of pregnancy massage. As she discusses the physiological changes of the mother's body, they are revealed from the inside using computer enhanced models of the progressing pregnancy. Stager demonstrates massage methods using side-lying and semi-reclining positioning as well as techniques for a full list of conditions that might develop such as sciatica, shortness of breath and edema. Her presentation style is easy to follow and comprehend. This DVD even includes physician referral and client intake forms you can print from your computer to use in your practice. I highly recommended this DVD."

How to Use the Context
Inquiry Question
At the time of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, the West Coast of the United States already had a long tradition of anti-Chinese and anti-Japanese discrimination. The Japanese came later than the Chinese. In 1890 there were only 3,000 Japanese people in the whole United States. When Hawaii became a United States Territory in 1898, the Japanese there were free to move to the mainland. In 1900, over 12,000 arrived, mostly from Hawaii. Between 1900 and 1908, 135,000 Japanese individuals entered the country, most settling on the West Coast, especially in California. Politicians, labor leaders, and newspaper publishers campaigned to restrict further immigration into the state. Reacting to this pressure, the United States and Japan agreed in 1908 to reduce immigration ("The Gentlemen's Agreement"). In 1924, the United States prohibited Japanese immigration entirely. Immigrants already in this country (Issei, from the Japanese word for "one") were barred from citizenship, but their children (Nisei, from the word for "two"), born in the United States, were automatically citizens.
Over the years, the Japanese population in America prospered, and by the outbreak of World War II, many Japanese had left the ranks of low-paid workers to become owners or managers of farms, fishermen who owned their own boats, and operators of small stores and other businesses. Their very success brought complaints against them from agricultural interests who wanted to eliminate competition. When World War II began in the Pacific with Japan's devastating attack on Pearl Harbor, fear of an attack on the West Coast created even greater antagonism toward Japanese immigrants and their children. In 1942, fear and prejudice combined to confine nearly 120,000 people of Japanese ancestry, citizens and aliens alike, in relocation centers established by the U.S. government in remote areas west of the Mississippi River. Many would not pass through the barbed wire fences surrounding the centers until the war was over.

The Knicks hadn't won an Atlantic division title in almost two decades, since Carmelo Anthony was just 10 years old. They changed all that after Tuesday night's thorough 120-99 thrashing of the Wizards, a rout that mirrored this division race: No drama, no contest.
Anthony scored a game-high 36 points and the Knicks tied a club-record with 20 3-pointers to run their winning streak to 13 games and claim their first division crown since 1994. But they haven't taken their eyes off the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference, or even that elusive NBA title — something that seems further away with every injured big man that goes down.
The only negative was Kenyon Martin coming down on Chris Singleton's foot, spraining his left ankle with 10:28 left.
X-rays were negative.
"We've got a long way to go still. We're playing for something,'' coach Mike Woodson said. "We're still trying to fight for that second seed. It could come down to that game on Sunday against Indiana. We've just got to continue to handle our business prior to getting to that game on Sunday.
"All we were thinking about was hosting the first round at home, and we would be able to do that but it's OK to go after the No. 2 seed because that assures us the second round as well at home."
The Knicks (51-26) lead Indiana for the second seed in the East by 2 ½ games, with five games to play on their schedule. The Pacers (48-29) won the season series and own the tiebreaker, but the Knicks' torrid form has set them up well to grab that elusive second seed.
This will mark the sixth time the Knicks have finished atop the division, winning five titles outright and losing out via tiebreaker in 1991-92. And last night they did it with an all-around complete effort.
They put six scorers in double figures, including 18 from Iman Shumpert and 10 points and eight assists from point guard Raymond Felton. They shot a scalding 9-of-12 from 3-point range in the first quarter, and went 20-of-36 for the night.
The Knicks led by as much as 71-49 in the third quarter before taking their foot off the proverbial gas and going into cruise control the rest of the way.
