"The effect of terror produced by the house at Rhinecliff was no doubt due to what seemed to me its intolerable ugliness. My visual sensibility must always have been too keen for middling pleasure; my photographic memory of rooms and houses - even those seen but briefly, or at long intervals - was from my earliest years a source of inarticulate misery, for I was always vaguely frightened by ugliness. I can still remember hating everything at Rhinecliff, which, as I saw, on rediscovering it some years later, was an expensive but dour specimen of Hudson River Gothic; and from the first I was obscurely conscious of a queer resemblance between the granite exterior of Aunt Elizabeth and her grimly comfortable home, between her battlemented caps and the turrets of Rhinecliff." (Edith Wharton, A Backward Glance,p. 28), New York, Charles Scribners' Sons: 1933)
Harsh criticism from the author of the classic treatises The Decoration of Houses (with Ogden Codman, 1897) and Italian Villas and Their Gardens (1904). If Edith Wharton could see Wyndcliffe in its current state of advanced decay, would she second the sentiments of her friend Henry James who, on first seeing the ruins of ancient Rome as a young man, wrote: "To delight in the aspects of sentient ruin might appear a heartless pastime and the pleasure, I confess, shows the note of perversity." The Norman style brick house, even in its heyday, looked to be the setting for a Gothic novel and Wharton had nothing good to say about it. Today moss grip the exterior walls, while most interior walls have collapsed, filling in what had been the basement, and bringing down stairways and fireplaces along the way. Wyndcliffe stands, barely, but in ruins.
In The Necessity for Ruins, (Amherst, The University of Massachusetts Press: 1980) John Brinckerhoff Jackson wrote the following about "The Impact of Religions on the Landscape" by geographer Erich Isaac:
"It is probably not necessary to point to the current movement to preserve wildness or natural areas as fragments of what we might call the original design of creation. The instinct behind the drive is very similar to that which inspires our architectural restorations: to restore as much a possible of the original aspect of the landscape. It is perfectly true that to restore part of a town to its mid-19th Century appearance is not in fact to restore it to its original form. But anthropologists tell us that, in the thought of most peoples, primal time - the golden age, that is to say – begins precisely where active memory ends – thus about the time of one's great grandfather."
"First there is that golden age, the time of harmonious beginnings. There ensues a period when the old days are forgotten and the golden age falls into neglect. Finally comes a time when we rediscover and seek to restore the world around us to something like its former beauty.
But there has to be that interval of neglect, there has to be discontinuity; it is religiously and artistically essential. That is what I mean when I refer to the necessity for ruins: ruins provide the incentive for restoration, and of a return to origins."
If a way to restore Wyndcliffe could be found, what would that mean? Edith Wharton had no pleasant memories of the house or of her visits to her aunt Elizabeth, "a ramrod-backed old lady compounded of steel and granite, had been threatened in her youth with the 'consumption' which had already carried off a brother and sister. Few families in that day escaped the scourge of tuberculosis...when Elizabeth in her turn began to pine, her parents decided to try curing her at home. They therefore shut her up on October in her bedroom in the New York house in Mercer Street, lit the fire, sealed up the windows, and did not let her out again until the following June, when she emerged in perfect health, to live till seventy. My aunt's house, called Rhinecliff, afterward became a vivid picture in the gallery of my little girlhood; but among those earliest impressions only one is connected with it; that of a night when, as I was ready to affirm, there was a Wolf under by bed..." (A Backward Glance, p. 27)
And Wharton's comments about the social circle her family was enmeshed in show, she was dry-eyed about its characteristics and its passing.
"The weakness of the social structure of my parents' day was a blind dread of innovation, an instinctive shrinking from responsibility." ( A Backward Glance, p. 22)
Elizabeth Schermerhorn Jones (1810-1876) of New York City was well-connected; along with being the aunt of the future novelist, then Edith Newbold Jones, Mrs. William B. Astor was a cousin and the brothers William and Henry James were frequent guests. Jones purchased l80 acres south of Rhinebeck in 1852 for a summer home to overlook the Hudson River. Little information is available about her chosen architect, George Veitch but work began on the house in 1853.
Jones never married although she had been engaged to a man who died. She enjoyed tennis and had courts constructed on the grounds at Wyndcliffe. After her death, her nephew Edward B. Jones, Jr. retained a life tenancy until is death, when the property passed out of family hands. Andrew Finck, a brewer from New York City, purchased Wyndcliffe from the Jones estate in 1886, and the house and its furnishings remained intact until 1936. The house stood empty until it was sold again in 1950, reportedly to a group of Hungarian nudists.
After more changes of ownership, the acreage surrounding Wyndcliffe was subdivided and houses built, providing Wyndcliffe with some protection from vandalism but nothing to prevent the deterioration that follows abandonment. First, part of the east wall of the house where the front parlor had been collapsed. In 1997, photographer, Monica Randall described Wyndcliffe as a dangerous place. "The Victorian boathouse that once stood on the water's edge has long since fallen into the river. All the meandering paths and garden walks have crumbled and been reclaimed by the earth." More recently, the space around the second and third west windows on the north wall has caved in.
Which brings me back to my question, what would restoration mean? The acclaimed novelist whose connection to Wyndcliffe draws our attention might well find its nature better revealed in its current state than she did when it was a showplace. Among other genres in which she excelled, Wharton was a writer of terrific ghost stories. "(S)ome dark unseen menace...I could feel it behind me, upon me, and if there was any delay in the opening of the door I was seized by a choking agony of terror." Who can doubt that this was inspired, at least in part, by her feelings about Wyndcliffe? The restored vacation home of a rich relative hardly seems an apt monument to this particular vivisectionist of the pretensions of rich people. The ruminations of landscape geographer J.B. Jackson are illuminating but maybe not for this case. Do we really need Wyndcliffe with a gift shop?

text: WASDE: USDA Lowers Corn Yield Estimate by 20 Bushels July 11, 2012 02:36 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By AgWeb.com Editors Email U.S. feed grain supplies for 2012/13 are projected sharply lower with corn production prospects reduced 1.8 billion bushels from last month. The projected U.S. corn yield is lowered 20 bushels per acre to 146 bushels reflecting the rapid decline in crop conditions since early June and the latest weather data. Persistent and extreme June dryness across the central and eastern Corn Belt and extreme late June and early July heat from the central Plains to the Ohio River Valley have substantially lowered yield prospects across most of the major growing regions. Harvested area is also reduced slightly based on the June 29 Acreage report. Reduced supplies and higher prices are expected to sharply lower 2012/13 corn usage with the biggest reduction for feed and residual disappearance, projected down 650 million bushels. Food, seed, and industrial use is also projected lower, down 105 million bushels, mostly reflecting a 100-million-bushel reduction in corn used to produce ethanol. Exports are projected 300 million bushels lower as tight supplies, higher prices, and strong competition from South American exporters limit U.S. shipments. A 52-million-bushel increase in beginning stocks and a 15-million-bushel increase in imports offset only a small portion of the expected reduction in this year's crop. Ending stocks for 2012/13 are projected at 1.2 billion bushels, down 698 million from last month's projection. The season average 2012/13 farm price for corn is projected at $5.40 to $6.40 per bushel, up sharply from $4.20 to $5.00 per bushel in June. Trade changes to the 2011/12 corn balance sheet boost projected 2011/12 ending stocks. Imports are raised 2 million bushels based on the latest trade data. Exports are projected 50 million bushels lower reflecting the slowing pace of old-crop sales and shipments. The season average 2011/12 farm price for corn is projected at $6.10 to $6.30 per bushel, up from $5.95 to $6.25 per bushel last month, as cash and futures prices have soared since early June on intensifying drought and heat across the Midwest. Global coarse grain supplies for 2012/13 are lowered 47.6 million tons mostly reflecting the 46.2-million-ton projected reduction in the U.S. corn crop. Partly offsetting is a 1.3-million-ton increase in EU-27 corn production, mostly reflecting higher reported area, and a 0.4-million-ton increase in Canada corn, also on higher reported area. Other important 2012/13 coarse grain production changes include a 1.5-million-ton reduction for Ukraine barley, a 1.0-million-ton reduction for Russia barley, a 0.5-million-ton reduction for Canada barley, and a 0.3-million-ton reduction for Canada oats. Brazil 2011/12 corn production is raised again this month, up 1.0 million tons, based on the latest reports from national and state statistical agencies. Global 2012/13 coarse grain trade is projected lower this month mostly reflecting lower corn exports from the United States. Corn imports are lowered 2.0 million tons each for China and EU-27, 0.5 million tons each for Japan and South Korea, and 0.3 million tons for Mexico. Global barley trade is also lowered with Ukraine exports down 0.5 million tons and Russia and Canada exports each down 0.2 million tons. Barley exports for Australia and Argentina are raised 0.3 million tons and 0.2 million tons, respectively. Global corn consumption drops 22.9 million tons with most of the decline in the United States. Corn consumption is also lowered 0.8 million tons for India and 0.5 million tons each for Japan and South Korea. Global corn ending stocks are projected 21.7 million tons lower with the United States accounting for 17.7 million tons of the decline. Stocks are also lowered for China, Brazil, EU-27, and Mexico. ..................................

To be successful in the marketplace, you must have a web presence, and free web design for small business is a good option when you're in the start up phase and are on a tight budget. Thousands of designers are all competing for business, and many of them offer free or very low cost website solutions for small businesses. It's not really necessary to pay a higher cost for quality, custom web design as some business owners believe. However, small business SEO done properly is essential. You have to be assured that your website will be found and that you'll get unlimited, targeted traffic.
A keyword search will bring up listings of thousands of companies offering free web design, which can be a good option for a small business, but you have to make sure to read the terms under which the free website is offered. When setting up a business website, you'll purchase a domain name for your company. Many of the designers offering free web design provide a variety of templates from which to choose. You can have a professional, attractive site setup in a matter of minutes. Sometimes the condition for providing a free website is that you must use the hosting company that the designer is affiliated with.
For the business owner who isn't familiar with all the aspects of web design, a free website with hosting included can be a good option. The features that are usually included are the creation of your website with a control panel that's simple to use, even for a novice. Most designers are more familiar with SEO than the average web surfer, and know how to optimize your site so that it's easily found in the search engines. This can result in higher rankings and more targeted traffic for your business. some of them will complete updates or revisions to your website without any additional charges. They'll provide free email with several email accounts, but some of them provide unlimited email accounts.

Compare their features and choose the one that provides the best options for your needs. Many companies offering free design, have a testimonials page so you can read what customers have to say about their services.

Dinitraniline Orange is not considered toxic.
Permanent Orange.
iron oxides
Burnt Sienna is a warm, mid-brown color formed by burning the yellow-brown limonite clay called Raw Sienna. It ranges from semi-opaque to semi-transparent due to the combination of its opaque, red-brown mass tone and its transparent, orangey undertone. It is an excellent mixing complement for blues and greens and creates salmon or peach colored tints when mixed with white. It can be useful for subduing bright colors and does not get chalky in dark mixtures.
Burnt Sienna has good permanence and is considered one of the most versatile of the permanent pigments.
Burnt Sienna has no significant hazards.
Burnt Sienna has been used as a pigment since prehistoric times, but its current name came about during the Renaissance. It comes from the city of Siena, in Italy, and is short for terra di Siena, meaning earth of Siena. Sienna was famous for the mining and production of earth pigments from the Renaissance until World War II. Due to the depletion of clay deposits in Tuscany, Italian siennas now come from other areas, including Sicily and Sardinia.
Caput Mortuum, Italian Earth, Natural Brown Iron Oxide, Sienna, Spanish Red, Vandyke Brown.
titanium dioxide
Titanium White is the most brilliant of the white pigments. It is considered an all purpose oil color useful in all techniques and the best all around white. Its masstone is neither warm nor cool, placing it somewhere between Lead White and Zinc White. It is less prone to cracking and yellowing than Lead White, but it still yellows easily. Titanium White dries slowly in oil form, more slowly than Lead White but more quickly than Zinc White. It is opaque in oil and acrylic forms and semi-opaque in watercolor form. This pigment has good chemical stability, and its tinting strength is superior to both Lead White and Zinc White.
Titanium White has excellent permanence and lightfastness.
Titanium dioxide is highly stable and is regarded as completely non-toxic. Animal studies give no indiciation that it is absorbed biologically, even after long periods of exposure. The primary safety concern is with inhalation of fine pigment dust particles. Titanium White, if inhaled in large amounts over the course of several years, may cause a benign pneumoconiosis that is visible on x-rays. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) considers fine titanium dioxide particles, if inhaled, to be a human carcinogen. The primary concern for artists is to avoid exposure to fine particulate dust from raw pigments.
Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, however mineral deposits that are economical to mine are less common. Titanium dioxide was first discovered in 1821, although it could not be mass produced until 1919. Widespread use of the pigment began in the 1940s. Since that time, it has become the most commonly used white pigment. The name comes from the Latin word Titan, the name for the elder brother of Kronos and ancestor of the Titans, and from the Greek word tito, meaning day or sun.
This Naphthol Red is a bright deep red with bluish undertones. It has an average drying time.
This Naphthol Red has fair to good lightfastness, not because of its masstone, but because it fades in tints. Not suitable for exterior use.
Naphthol Reds are not considered toxic. They may cause eye, skin, or respiratory irritation. Contact with dry pigment should be avoided.

Safety is no laughing matter…most of the time. But when the Muppets team with UL for holiday season PSA's, you can't help but snicker a little bit.
This article has been reproduced in a new format and may be missing content or contain faulty links. Contact email@example.com to report an issue.
Thanks to my hubby being employed by UL (yes, he is an engineer. He gets to break things for a living), our family had the opportunity to see the new movie The Muppets before the release on the 23rd. As a family, my daughter and I like the Muppets, but my son and hubby REALLY like them (As I write this and add in YouTube video, my two-year-old son keeps dropping what he's doing to sing Mahna Mahna to me and ask if it's an "amal movie" I am watching). The movie was an exciting opportunity for us to attend.
As a mom, The Muppets did not disappoint. If you grew up watching the show, you will appreciate the movie. The humor was mostly at kid level with some adult one liners thrown in for free. Other people I know from my hubby's office were almost in tears they were laughing so hard. If you take your kids to see the movie this holiday week, a good time to go to the bathroom is when the bad guy is talking with his sidekicks. If you go while the Muppets are visiting the bad guy, you will miss a humorous rap number.
As a geek, I'm glad the movie provided some appropriate cameo appearances. Neil Patrick Harris (who is heard telling a caller, "Why, I don't know why I'm not hosting this.") and Jim Parsons were two of many cameo appearances in the movie. It made my geeky heart proud to see a wholesome family movie would still give a nod to the geek crowd. Also there was a huge girl power nod in this movie. Amy Adams as the female lead played a shop teacher. Her shop skills come into play late in the movie and help save the day. It was refreshing to have the female lead be the one with the mechanical knowledge.
The Muppets won't be in theaters until the 23rd, so if you need more geeky Muppet articles to read, check out GeekDad. Over there, Matt Blum is looking forward to the movie and has been sharing various parodies and video clips.
Overall, if you never watched the Muppets, don't really like the Muppets, and only watch Oscar worthy films, then I would skip the movie. If you like the Muppets, you will enjoy the movie and will probably have a little moment of nostalgia (Rainbow Connection and Mahna Mahna ring any bells?).
…Do doodoo do…(Is it stuck in your head yet?)

Today I have a set of baby girl burp cloths to share with you. These were made using the Snuggle Flannel with pink and brown polka dots from Joann Fabrics. And since it was a pink colored fabric I thought that these two designs would compliment the fabric nicely.
For my 'wonderland' burp cloth I used the Alice in Wonderland sketch with autograph. Don't you just love that autograph? What a great idea it was to add that to the design. And for my 'princess' burp cloth I used the Queen Elsa sketch. Also from Thanks4theAdventure.
In all seriousness, I really do love how these sketches stitch out and I think that they are a great, fun alternative to stitching filled designs and/or appliques. If you do any embroidery and haven't tried these sketch designs yet you're really missing out.

With the reintroduction of Knight and Damehoods in Australia in the recent weeks, and a visit from The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge along with Prince George, Australia is talking all things royal.
A poll conducted by Fairfax media put the question to Australians: "Do you support Australia becoming a Republic?" The results came back and, surely, they ruffled the feathers of republicans across this great country.
Support for the Abolition of the Australian Monarchy was at its lowest point in 22 years, with 41% saying they would vote to abolish the Monarchy, 51% supporting the monarchy, and 9% undecided or uninterested.
Far from being a background issue, the Republic vs Monarchy debate has been gaining momentum with a large number of recent events linked to the Australian Monarchy.
Most recently was the issue dusted off when former Governor-General Dame Quentin Bryce made comments that seemed to show her favouring a Republic in the future, despite being Her Majesty's representative.
Although support of the Monarchy is up, the reintroduction of Knighthoods was looked upon less favourably with 50% saying they didn't support it.
Support of the Monarchy seems to stem from admiration of Her Majesty The Queen, as many Australians have spent their entire lives with The Queen as Head of State. In fact, thousands came out to see The Queen and her husband Prince Phillip on their visit in 2011 for the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting.
I asked some local residents from Canberra, the Nation's Capital, what they thought of the Republic vs Monarchy debate.
Stevie Pedemont of Canberra said: "I am a modern girl, but I believe in keeping some traditions alive." Stevie (22) seems to follow the trend of the poll that shows Gen Y are the most in favour of the continuance of the Monarchy.
"I don't know; I would need more information," was the undecided answer from Brylee Crowe. Ms Crowe is not alone in the undecided group, with 9% of Australians unsure how they would vote if a referendum was called.
When I asked Russell Jackson what he thought of the Royal Tour, he had this to say: "I don't think the people going out to see them are going because they're royalty. I think they're going more because of their celebrity status. They're more interested in seeing someone famous."
For its part, the Australian Republican Movement Facebook page has posted statuses slamming the idea of a monarchy in Australia and New Zealand like, "Of course Australians warmly welcome tourists, but don't mistake a welcome for allegiance."
Another, with reference to an article in the New Zealand Herald by Morgan Godfrey, quotes, "The Monarchy has lost its meaning. It's a celebrity tour and a colonial hangover." The comment soon elicited comments from its 'likers'; one in particular caught my eye.
Mark Hyde wrote, "Some tourists with their baby are not going to dampen the spirit of republicanism….but he is cute…damn!! lol :),' which goes to show even republicans are swept up by the dapper Prince who steals the show everywhere he goes.
Fortunately for monarchists, it seems the Australian Monarchy will remain, and I am certain this won't be the last time we hear about Monarchy vs Republic.

Cedars-Sinai Medical Center's Institutional Review Board (IRB) is the entity responsible for overseeing all research activities involving human subjects conducted at Cedars-Sinai. The IRB operates under a Federalwide Assurance (FWA) - approved by the Office of Human Research Protections of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services - that requires Cedars-Sinai to conduct human subjects research in accordance with the Belmont principles of respect for persons, beneficence and justice. It also follows the guidance published by the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for institutional review boards and clinical investigators.
There are three IRBs at Cedars-Sinai. The mission of the three IRBs is to protect the rights and welfare of human subjects involved in research at Cedars-Sinai. In order to accomplish this mission, the IRBs conduct thorough reviews of each research study prior to its initiation and at regular intervals thereafter to ensure that the research conforms to and abides by all applicable ethical principles and federal, state and institutional regulations. In addition, the IRBs monitor the conduct of research after approval.
The Office of Research Compliance is the administrative unit of the IRB. The Director of the Office of Research Compliance serves as the designated institutional Human Protection Administrator. Under the leadership of the Director of the Office of Research Compliance, IRB staff members perform duties that support the protection of the rights and welfare of human subjects involved in research activities conducted at Cedars-Sinai.

Vegetarian Green Chile Recipe
Fresh or frozen roasted Hatch chiles - two heaping cups, stemmed, seeded, chopped
In a large saucepan, combine the chiles, garlic, tomatoes, broth, sea salt and pepper, vinegar and sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat; reduce the heat a bit and maintain a gentle, constant low simmer for ten minutes. Stir in the cornstarch paste and continue to cook, stirring for another 7 to 10 minutes, until the sauce is thickened [but still pourable]. Taste test. If you used very hot chiles and the sauce is too spicy, add a touch more sugar. Remove from heat and set aside.

Hey guys, Its Brionac (r12 spider, also Baffled r10) here to give my opinions of who I think are the top 3 of every class in the moors up to this day is. Again this is opinion, not Necessarily fact (Just from my observations). So without further or do, lets get started with the Creeps First:
Reavers: 1. Lets kick it off with Reeferbaby. This guy is one of the few crps in the moors that frps fear when running around solo. He is all around the best reaver when it comes to damage and catching frps off guard. (shoutout to my boy ;P). 2. The greatly improved Kotomine. Since I left on baffled and came back, Its been like night and day. This guy never runs from a 1v1. 3. Dugond. Sadly he hasnt been playing much, but still a fantastic reaver. Prob one of the smartest players I know.
Blackarrows: 1. The one and only Kittysniper. He really just knows what skill to use and when, and is a beast in the dps Department. 2. Deadeyedermot. Group fights seem drastically easier whenever he joins them, and has one of the nastiest duos with Enpeecee in the moors. 3. Maziokino. Yes reefer makes the BA list as well, but what can I say, he plays this class great as well.
Wargs: 1. Although he doesnt play too often, Silar is still the Silar that I remember from the Baffled days. Many people still tell me that he is the only warg that gives them trouble 1v1. 2. Thumpnakh. Pretty much tied with silar at the #1 spot, but just more dedicated to frpside currently. Regardless, just like Dugond, one of the smarter players in the moors and is a fantastic group leader. 3. Dont hate me everyone lol, But rally on Ilikechewtoyz is not bad at all. As trolly as he can be, im basing this on skill of the class, and he is a solid warg that can cause problems in fights
Defilers: 1. The bad man Talidis. The guy is one of the few defilers to think of dpsing and opponent before throwing hots on himself ;P love it. Great team player when it comes to RvR as well. 2. Enpeecee. Heals fantastic in groups and as I said before, makes a nasty duo with Deadeye. 3. Bobirinio. I have only seen a little of Bob's play, but many have tell me he is one of the best of the best at the class, and from what I've seen, I could believe.
Warleaders: 1. The OBVIOUS BIG MAN KRIMOND. Guy is a monster in RvR or any fight of that matter. One of the few crps on the server that gives RvR a fighting chance for crpside. 2. Warbite. I think he provides good insight on what needs to be done, and acts on it. Another great healer. 3. Duckymomo. You cant beat clutch bubbles, and he seems to have alot of those for me and others in our groups. Hats off.
Weavers: 1. He isnt on much, but I believe Sandtrap is one of the smartest players when playing the Weaver. He knows how to control a fight very well with CC and apply those dots very quickly. 2. The all new (Congratz!) r13 spider Malgil. Not only does that skin look sexy (totally jelly) , but your also a good team player on crpside and provide alot of support when crpside needs it. 3. Also another spider that isnt on much, Shadowkiss. Another Solid spider , just wish he played more .
Now for Freepside!
Lets start off with Minstrels: 1. The obvious, Apache. Great at dps, great at support heals, great at group leading, what more could you want from a guy. 2. A very close second, Newly r11 Droker. Guy is one of the most geared out minis I know, and plays everyfight out to its max potential (if the kills there, normally gets it). 3. Daenyras. She is one of the few minis that doesn't drop to spam heals on the first sign of trouble. She hits like a truck and is just awesome to run around with. (biggest fear in the moors, Brio) ... ahem jk :P
Wardens: 1. Without a doubt, theCookiemonster. After I played Baffled, I was hoping that other wardens would be able to take that dps role and play it, and now there are many wardens that have, and this guy does it even better. Hats off cookie, great guy, great player. All of the wardens after cookie really just spam heal too much 2. Nimdhiran. Is Ok at dps, relies a little too much on heals, but knows the class well 3. Bamor. Another very skilled warden in the moors. He doesnt seem to drop to spam heals on the first sign of trouble and is normallllllly willing to fight it out in dps until the end. ;P
Loremasters: 1. Hands down Coriantumr. Its easy to spam Water Lore, but you can tell when a lore master is just more sharp with his skill rotations than others, and Corian is. 2. Murf. Another smart player that gives alot of players troubles. The Best LM at keeping SI up in Groups on his allys. Very Huge. 3. Eoddred. (I think thats how it is spelt, Forgive me if not!) Have yet to solo him, and prob never will :P.
Hunters: 1.Karondo. The guy has the hunter figured out up,down,left and right, with fantastic knowledge of how to play it. Hits extremely hard as hunters should do. 2. Tulc. Almost just as good to be honest. One of the few hunters that i dont want Brio to find at distance ;P. 3. Jango. The guys leads great groups and is just a big presence in the moors for crps to lookout for.
Captains: 1. Thadius. This guy is the core of what makes relentless so annoying to fight :P. No other captain Id run with over him on Frpside. 2. Phoenixash. A very active captain in the moors that I hate to see on crpside when its group v group ;P. 3. There arent any other active captains worth mentioning sadly .
Runekeepers: 1. Inacthas. He hasnt been on much as of late, but he was on a few days ago and from what I saw, he is still the wrecking crew I know. Many have told me he is the best of both DPS and Healing. Cant beat that. 2. Venacava. Vena has great awareness of when to heal and when to dps in a fight. Always a challenge. 3. ONAAAAAA. Imo the best group healer out there.
Guardians: 1. Maddawgg. The guy plays in OP but is the tankiest &&&&&&& i know ;P. Always difficult to kill while throwing out hard punches. Nicely played Madd. 2. Brickwall. The def. of ouch from guardians. Brick runs the 2H OP stance and lays down the hurt if everything lands. 3. Like captains, none other that come to mind
Champions: 1. WITHOUT A DOUBT IN MY DAM MIND, MELDO. The guys is a monster. A quote from my bio (Cookie: Idk what meldo is, hes not a champ, hes like a transformer. Always seems to full heal.) Yea, heals like a shield ward, hits like a tyrant. Moving on. 2. Heperment. Another amazing champ, running red line but feels like a blue line champ when trying to kill him. Great at 1v1. 3. Ononion. Well played, hard hitting, smart player with gear swapping to make sure he gets the most for his buck. Great champ.
Burglars: 1. Many may disagree, But Saffhire is IMO the best burg out here. One of I believe only 2 burgs to have solo'd my spider. Very well played burglar. 2. Dangoon. Guy hits just as hard and plays the class to max potential. 3. Argio. Another one of the few burgs that I have seen and heard of to cause troubles out in the moors.
That Sums it Up!
Again guys, this is just my Opinion of my exp and what Ive seen and heard. Feel free to give your opinions. Much Appreciated ;P

Why Book Don Friesen?
If you missed Don's hilarious Showtime one-hour Special, "Ask Your Mom," you've got to catch him Live! Engaging, clever, and just flat-out funny, Don captures the irony of parenting, marriage and everyday absurdities through characters, voices, parodies and some of the best written routines around. The Seattle Post-Intelligencer says "Friesen will leave a lasting comic impression," and describes him as "offbeat, satirical, self-deprecating and slightly out of control."
As the only two-time winner in the 40-year history of the prestigious San Francisco International Comedy Competition, Friesen ignites the stage with a playful, high-energy spoof of his life as a modern suburban dad trying to get through the day with a bit of money in the bank and a scrap of dignity intact.
He's a wanna-be geek who constantly upgrades to the latest tech, but can never get it to work, leading to signature bits about tech support, Idiots Guides, texting and passwords.
Friesen's credits include Showtime, Netflix, Live at Gotham, The Lewis Black Christmas Special, and Comics Unleashed. He was also featured in TBS' "The Comedy Festival" in Las Vegas and is a wildly popular on KLOS' 5:00 Funnies, 100.3 The Sound's Laughter at 45 After, and XM Sirius satellite radio.

text: TV / VideoAmerican Dad Moves to TBS in 2014Seth MacFarlane comedy to leave Fox after 10 seasonsBy Anthony Crupi|July 16, 2013 ShareBy Anthony Crupi|July 16, 2013 Share Seth MacFarlane's dominance over Fox's "Animation Domination" lineup is on the wane. Just months after the network elected to cancel The Cleveland Show after four seasons, TBS announced that it would begin carrying first-run episodes of MacFarlane's American Dad following the 2013-14 broadcast season. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. A mainstay of Fox's Sunday night roster for the last nine seasons, American Dad premiered in the plum post-Super Bowl spot on Feb. 6, 2005. The series opener averaged 15.1 million viewers and a 7.5 in the adults 18-49 demo. While American Dad doesn't deliver huge ratings, the show did well enough to earn a final renewal on Fox. Per Nielsen live-plus-same-day data, AD last season averaged 4.29 million viewers and a 2.1 in the dollar demo. By comparison, MacFarlane's flagship program, Family Guy, drew 5.42 million viewers and a 2.7 rating, while the unsinkable Simpsons averaged 5.41 million viewers and a 2.5 in the demo. AD also lagged behind its fellows in terms of its relative value to advertisers. Buyers estimate that the average 30-second spot on the show fetched around $160,000 a pop whereas The Simpsons and Family Guy commanded prices in the $280,000-$300,000 range. If MacFarlane's Sunday night presence will be diminished—a planned revival of The Flintstones was scrapped a year ago—he hasn't exactly been banished from Fox. Family Guy is guaranteed a Sunday night time slot through 2014, and his first live-action TV comedy, Dads, is set to bow on Sept. 17. Along with astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, he is also prepping a reboot of Carl Sagan's Cosmos. Given the success of his first venture into film, it's likely that MacFarlane in the coming years may devote less time to the small screen. His 2012 comedy Ted grossed $218.8 million stateside and racked up another $330.6 million in foreign markets. A sequel to Ted is expected to hit theaters in April 2015. Turner currently airs repeats of AD on TBS and Adult Swim. The show puts up particularly robust numbers on the latter network; last week, AD drew 2.39 million viewers on Tuesday night (10:30 p.m.) and another 2.35 million on Thursday. Adult Swim recently began airing repeats of Fox's Bob's Burgers and has had the rights to repurpose The Cleveland Show since 2010. "American Dad is a great fit for TBS, a favorite of comedy fans who like smart, irreverent humor with ample doses of biting wit and skewering satire," said Michael Wright, president and head of programming for TBS, TNT and Turner Classic Movies. "We look forward to welcoming Seth MacFarlane and the rest of his team as they bring this iconic show to TBS." New episodes of AD will begin appearing in the TBS prime-time lineup in late 2014. TBS recently bailed out another broadcast comedy, rescuing ABC's Cougar Town from the wrecking ball after its third season. The cable net has committed to a fifth helping of the Courteney Cox vehicle, ordering an additional 13 episodes. Cougar Town has been a modest hit for TBS, averaging 1.93 million viewers and ranking 15th in the dollar demo on Tuesday nights. Sharehttp://adweek.it/191jxGP copy Adweek Adweek

Newcastle hotel wins RIBA award for architectural excellence
Reinvention of classic Railway Hotel recognised by Royal Institute of British Architects
(Newcastle, June 21 – 2012) A landmark city centre hotel in Newcastle is celebrating after winning a prestigious award from the Royal Institute of British Architects.
Sleeperz Newcastle – the 98-bedroom premium budget hotel near Newcastle Central Station – was recognised by judges for architectural excellence at the RIBA Hadrian Awards in Leeds last night.
The award means the hotel joins a list of elite buildings in the UK that RIBA recognise as having achieved the highest architectural standards and which make a substantial contribution to the local environment.
The sleek glass fronted hotel opened in January and was built in a heritage conservation area on the site of a derelict former Parcel Works on Westgate Road.
This is the second time RIBA has recognised Sleeperz Hotels for the quality and appearance of its hotel build and design.
In 2010, its Cardiff hotel won the RIBA Wales Award.
David Myers, chief executive of Sleeperz Hotels, said: "We believe in acquiring land that is unusual and extraordinary in shape and transforming it into stylish landmark city centre hotels offering every modern convenience and comfort at affordable rates to leisure and business travellers.
To win two RIBA Awards for our first two properties is a monumental achievement and worthy recognition for our vision of creating beautiful budget hotels in Britain's leading cities."
Sleeperz Newcastle is only the second hotel built by the fast growing UK budget hotel operator. It has plans to open new hotels in Birmingham, London and Manchester by 2015.
Both the Cardiff and Newcastle hotels were designed by award-winning London based architects Clash Associates, who have succeeded in making the hotels into modern, highly-visible and instantly recognisable buildings.
Peter Clash, of Clash Associates Ltd, said: "This award is extremely pleasing. Sleeperz Newcastle is an innovative building made with quality materials and constructed on a difficult city centre site in the central conservation area."
Newcastle based Metnor Construction Ltd was hired to build the hotel with around 90 local jobs created during the construction.
The RIBA Hadrian Awards are the regional awards for the North East from which the winners are put forward for the national RIBA Awards. The winners of those awards are considered for the RIBA Stirling Prize.

Secretary of State William Galvin charges LPL Financial with improper sales of non-traded REITs
Massachusetts Secretary of the Commonwealth William F. Galvin charged LPL Financial of Boston on Wednesday with failure to supervise agents who sold investments in non-traded real estate investment trusts, and with "dishonest and unethical'' business practices.
An LPL spokeswoman said Galvin's claims are "substantially overstated.''
A probe by the Securities Division, which Galvin oversees, found 597 transactions by Massachusetts residents in seven REITs with more than $28 million invested.
LPL, a network of brokers, received at least $1.8 million in commissions on those sales from 2006 through 2009, the state alleged.
According to the division's complaint, most of the 597 transactions violated state laws or LPL's own compliance practices. The division is seeking a cease-and-desist order against LPL, a censure, and full restitution to those investors who were sold the instruments in violation of Massachusetts regulations and the requirements of the REIT prospectus.
"Non-traded REITs present risks to investors,'' Galvin said in a statement. "Massachusetts recognizes those risks and requires limits on an investors' exposure to the high fees, potential illiquidity, and risky nature of non-traded REIT products.''
REITs own and manage income-producing property or are involved in real estate financing. Non-traded REITs are more difficult to get one's money out of, and tend to carry high fees and commissions, Galvin said.
In an e-mail, LPL Financial spokeswoman Betsy Weinberger wrote: "We believe the claims included in the complaint are substantially overstated. LPL Financial takes protection of investors' interests seriously. We have always endeavored to promote a strong culture of compliance and continue to do so.''

Controversial arrest of Austin jogger caught on video
The arrest of a female jogger in Austin on Feb. 20 has led to that city's police chief to make what many are calling a curious statement to Austin media.
Amanda Jo Stephen, 24, was arrested Thursday after she was allegedly caught jaywalking, but she wasn't arrested for jaywalking. She was arrested for failing to identify herself to police.
An Austin police bicycle officer attempted to stop Stephen while she was jogging. He grabbed her arm and she pulled away, which lead to him believing that she was resisting.
A police spokesperson told the Austin American-Statesman that the woman was wearing headphones and probably couldn't hear what the officer was trying to tell her.
Two officers were working on a "pedestrian tracking initiative" with the goal of cutting down on jaywalking at the request of local businesses, according to KTBC-TV in Austin.
Austin Police Chief Art Acevedo remarked on the incident as it went worldwide, telling assembled Austin media on Friday that the incident wasn't as bad as what other cities and police forces are contending with.
"In other cities, cops are actually committing sexual assaults on duty, so I thank God that this is what passes for a controversy in Austin, Texas," Acevedo told reporters.
Acevedo reiterated that the woman was placed under arrest because she failed to identify herself, not for resisting arrest. But still the criticism on social media is that the officers used excessive force.
Acevedo contends the woman knew full well that officers were trying to stop her, but she still decided to act the way she did. Acevedo said to reporters that if he were the attending officer, he would have probably arrested her for resisting arrest.
Mentioning the sexual misconduct of officers elsewhere in comparison to that of his own police force's actions led Acevedo to issue a statement Saturday apologizing for what he called his "poor analogy" made at the press conference.
Speaking via Twitter about the incident, Acevedo noted that Austin police made 28 contacts, issued seven citations, and handed out warnings to offenders during the initiative which Stephen became a part of.
A UT student named Christopher Quintero began taking pictures and video of the developing scene, which escalated into Stephen crying on the ground in handcuffs. She reportedly refused to give the officers her name. Stephen was eventually put into a squad car, where on the video you can hear her screaming at police. She was then taken to jail for booking.
Quintero's video and pictures quickly went viral once he put them up on his own blog Thursday. He later told the Austin American-Statesman that he thought Stephen handled the situation "poorly" with police.
According to the Travis County website, Stephen is no longer in custody. She has not made any public statements about the incident.

The word "fiduciary" gets thrown around a lot in the world of financial advice. But some of the 42 million Americans who are taking care of their relatives may not realize that they, too, may fall into that category.
Maybe you have power of attorney, or you've been named as the trustee under a revocable living trust? These are just a couple of situations where you likely need to follow the rules that govern fiduciaries.
In the financial-services world, being a fiduciary essentially means that you must act in your client's best interest; in the care-giving context, it means you have to do the same for your aging relative.
Confused? To help you, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau on Tuesday published four guides aimed at helping caregivers understand how to best perform the task of managing someone else's finances, including a description of the duties of a fiduciary.
As one of the guides sums it up, "The law requires you to manage [your family member's] money and property for her benefit, not yours," and to keep the family member's property separate from your own. Though their tone is generally encouraging, the guides also include this warning: "If you do not meet these standards, you could be removed as a fiduciary, sued, or have to repay money. It is even possible that the police or sheriff could investigate you and you could go to jail."
There's a guide for each of the following situations:
- people named as a power of attorney
- trustees of a living revocable trust
- court-appointed guardians
- people who represent a recipient of Social Security or veteran's benefits.
AARP, the advocacy group for older Americans, estimates that 42.1 million people were caregivers in the U.S. in 2009. And likely some of those caregivers are also taking care of the finances.
"We know that millions of non-professionals manage someone's money because their family member or friend trusted them and appointed them as a fiduciary in a legal document such as a power of attorney or trust," said Nora Eisenhower, assistant director for the CFPB's Office of Older Americans. Millions more have other relevant financial authority, she added.
"These 'lay fiduciaries' take on the task with the best of intentions. But without the knowledge of what this task actually entails, they may not be able to do a good job," Eisenhower said.
The guides also address the issue of financial fraud committed against older Americans, and offer some tips on what to watch for to make sure your elderly relatives are not at risk. Certainly, fraud is a big problem for seniors who may be isolated or dealing with health issues that make it difficult for them to protect themselves.
Some novel approaches are being tried to combat the problem. For example, in September, several federal agencies called for banks to report suspicious activity that might signal the financial exploitation of their older customers.
And doctors can play a part in preventing elder financial abuse, too. Anne Tergesen described last year a program that's trained more than 3,000 doctors nationwide to keep an eye out for financial abuse, including asking questions along the lines of, "Do you have a will? Has anyone asked you to change it?"

Kaley Cuoco is leaving her divorce like a boss ... protecting the hell out of her 'Big Bang Theory' fortune.
We obtained the settlement agreement between Kaley and her now-ex hubby, tennis pro Ryan Sweeting, and she made out well, and the key is her prenup.
Kaley got hitched in 2013, and months later she reportedly signed a staggering $72 million contract -- $1 million an episode for 72 shows. That money is protected under the prenup -- it's all hers.
On top of that, she gets their home in Tarzana and their Santa Barbara area beach house.
Ryan did ... not so well. He walks away with a lump sum parting gift of $165,000. She's also agreed to pay the $195,000 bill for his 2 personal trainers.
Oh, one other thing. He gets to keep whatever cash and gift certificates in his possession. So, dinner at Chili's?

Easter Parade
Held at Dorm
Easter season was unofficially
opened April 13 when a preview of
hats was presented in the Easter
Parade on Arona Avenue.
Dache, Pierre, and Larson fash-ions
were among the outstanding
shown. The parade began on the
third floor of the dorm, wended its
way down the floors and over to
the men's dormitory where the pa-rade
ended in a sudden downpour
of water. The affair was so out-standing
that the girls were asked
to model the hats at a later show-ing
... Wednesday evening at the
supper club.
The program follows:
"The Easter Parade"
Miss Gladys "Lampshade" Carlson
Parade of the March
Hairs Las belles damep
The super supper..place aux dames
Machine Age..Nel "Ezekiel" Larson
In Your Easter
Bonnet double quintet
Exodus Endis
The hats, a farce on the new
Easter hats appearing in the dorm,
contained everything from flower
pots to carrots . from windmills
to monkeys; from pillows to lamp-shades.
At 6:30 P. M. on Friday, May 17,
Bethel girls with their long skirts
and orchids, and Bethel fellows
with theri white s,hirts and Sunday
suits, will gather in the spring-bedecked
dining hall of the' Girl's
Dormitory for the crowning event
of Bethel's social activities, the
annual Junior-Senior banquet,
under the sponsorship of the
Freshman class.
The theme of the evening will
be "Looking Unto Jesus," and gen-ial
Carl Olson will be in command
as the master of ceremonies. The
speaker, whose identity will not be
revealed until banquet time, is a
well-known person from the Twin
Cities. The program provides such
good things as instrumental num-bers
by Russ Nyberg and vocal
solos by Mary Oliver. Part of the
evening will also be spent in the
reading of I he Sophomore class
will and class prophecy.
The honored guests on this occa-sion
will be the Sophomore class,
the faculty, and members of the
office staff. Ticket sales indicate
that approximately 300 people will
be present.
Those who are working with
their committees to make the eve-ning
a success include Roy Nelson,
program chairman; Harold Chris-tianson,
publicity chairman; Lu-cille
Palmer, decorations chair-man;
and Johnny Leggett, busi-ness
manager. The freshmen in
charge guarantee that festivities
will be over by 9:30 P. M. so that
there will be ample time for gala-vanting
before the 1:00 A. M. dead-line.
The Student Missionary Confer-ence
is an outgrowth of the Stu-dent
Missionary Volunteer Group,
which has recently ceased to func-tion.
The organization is compos-ed
of the executive committees of
missionary band groups in seven
schools—St. Olaf College, Mounds
Midway School of Nursing, Be-thesda
Hospital, St. Paul Bible In-s
t i t u t e, Gustavus Adolphus Coll-ege,
Augsburg College, and Bethel
College and Seminary.
The purpose of the organiza-tion
is to promote concerted in-terest
i n world-wide missions
among students, to encourage stu-dents
to face the missionary chal-lenge
and to seek God's will as
to their place in this world-wide
program, and to enlist those who
realize that Christ's commission is
meant for them and who will step
forward to let Him fulfil his pur-pose
in their lives.
The speakers at the two-day con-ference
will be Rev. Clyde W. Tur-ner,
secretary of the Evangelical
Foreign Missions Association, Rev.
W. E. Klawitter, an instructer and
radio director at the Lutheran Bi-ble
Institute, Mr. Paul Lindell, who
is on the home staff ,of the World
Mission Prayer League, and Dr.
William Cook, principal of the Jor-hat
Christian Schools, Jorhat, As-sam,
India. The schools of which

Democracy is "government of the people, by the people, and for the
people." If Lincoln's ideal conception of our government were carried
out to the letter, there would be much confusion for all of the people
cannot be rulers. It is necessary that the people elect representatives
to carry on the government for them. - But it is the essence of democracy
that those who do the governing—those who hold civil offices—are
responsible to the citizens of the country. A democratic government,
then, is one in which the will of the governed takes precedence over the
will of the governors.
We like to think that America is democratic: We do not approve
of anything that shows signs of being dictatorial, or that seems to
deprive the people of their democratic rights and privileges. That
applies not only in political affairs, but also in our churches and in our
What I am leading up to is this. Is it not a gross limitation upon
the voting power of the student at Bethel when he has no chance
whatever to propose nominations for office? The normal procedure in
elections is that the student council, or the dorm council or some organi-zation
sets up a ballot and puts copies of that ballot on the chairs in the
chapel for the student's vote. Many times as was the case during the
election of the publications staffs last fall, the ballot shows one name
for the office, and leaves a blank line in case anyone wishes to vote
for someone else. Obviously in such an instance the nominee is virtually
elected before the votes are counted.
Ballots arranged by a few students in this manner are bound to be
one-sided, and will not be an indication of the choice of the student
body. It is pr(obably true that the procedure followed is more practical
than that of securing nominations from the entire school. But it would
be even more practical to do away with elections entirely, and eliminate
the necessity of printing the ballots and getting the students to vote.
The quesion is one, not of practicability, but of fairness.
Election of next year's officers will soon be held. Would it be too
much to ask that the student body be given a chance to make its own
nominations? Why not give the student council the authority to use a
chapel period to secure nominations for next year's offices? Besides
resulting in greater fairness in elections, such a change will lead to
more active student interest in school affairs.

Every morning at 7 a group of students meets
in the lounge of the women's dorm for prayer and de-votions
before breakfast. There is no organization to
the affair. . . when two or three arrive, someone starts
reading the Bible, and then prayer is begun.
It is good to pray, and it is good for some things
to b e spontaneous, but why couldn't these prayer
meetings be organized? Why couldn't some group
take over and provide a leader for every morning?
The leader would need to do no more than what is
done now. . . read a passage of Scripture, and then
close the meeting at 7:25 with a word of prayer.
Perhaps the Religious Council could include this
matter in its duties, and make this a regular prayer

By Taffy Bergman
It was a leisurely spring after-noon
and I ambled- over to my
mailbox to see what it's yield
would be. Aha! A white envelope.
A letter from home, I presumed.
Grinning smugly at my popularity;
I tore the letter open. It was then
that I noticed the official Bethel
stationery. Tragedy was entering
my life. There in the bold black
type of Alice Anderson's machine
I read, "Miss Bergman, Please see
me at my office- tomorrow after-noon
at two o'clock." Beneath
these fatal words was the classic
signature of Dr. Henry Wingblade.
My mind worked rapidly (for the
first time since I came to Bethel).
I searched for reasons why this
conference would be necessary.
Cold sweat broke out over my aca-demic
brow. Why this very minute
I was cutting Zoo Lab. I quaked
in my room-mate's saddle-shoes.
"I didn't ask her if I could borrow
them," I mused. Perhaps she
thinks this sort of thing has hap-pened
too often and has complain-ed
about me." I pictured the
mounds of dust conscientiously
swept under my bed ever since
our Christmas vacation. Maybe
Mrs. Hademan ..." Then there was
the time I helped put the cabinet
full of jangling alarm clocks in
front of our floor monitor's door.
The best thing to do, I decided,
was to stop worrying and turn over
a new leaf immediately. I rushed
up to Zoo Lab. Prof. Johnson
smiled benignly as I entered. I
was only half hour late today.
Even he was beginning to notice
the improvement in my conduct.
I pulled out my instruments and
started fiendishly on my assign-ment
of dissecting a frog. Even
hard work could not ease the bur-den
I had on my heart. As I
delved into the intricacies of a
frog's intestines I was reminded
of the time I put the sand,shark's
head in the dean's top drawer.
That was it. That was the reason
for that ominous message.
When the bell rang for the close
of the hour, I rushed madly to the
coffee shop with hopes of drown-ing
my sorrows in a butterscotch

growled at me. "Oh yes," I
thought, "I owe $1.69 for the

Daily Bread
To Europe
"About 150,000,000 people (in
Europe) .... must have overseas
supplies during the next four
months if wide-spread famine is
to be prevented ... Bread has a
reality as the symbol of life as
never before in history. It is _now
the symbol of life of nations them-selves
... The saving of these hu-man
lives is far more than an
economic necessity to the recovery
of the world. It is more even than
the path to order and to stability
and to peace ... (it) is part of the
moral and spiritual reconstruction
of the earth."
That was a quotation from a
Good Friday address broadcast by
Ex-president Herbert Hoover after
he had made a six-week food sur-vey
in seventeen European nations.
More people than there are in the
United States will experience a
tremendous famine unless substan-tml
aid is provided soon. Hoover
declared that the world must pro-vide
an additional 5,000,000 tons
of cereals in the next four months,
or millions will r erish.
Satisfied America cannot imag-ine
famine. Even when a man like
Mi. Hoover comes home with a
report such as the one he submit-ted
two weeks ago, Americans are
not likely to see the reality of
Europe's condition. And when the
President asks for two "starvation
days" a week, and when produc-tion
of flour and bread are cut to
increase exports to the needy na-tions,
we feel somewhat resentful
that we cannot buy as much food
as we want. Our compliance with
the suggestions and regulations is
not voluntary and cheerful, but
rather is accompanied with the
feeling that we have to do it, I
America will have to bear the
brunt of the burden since we are
better supplied than any of the
other countries of the world. As
a result, there must be a drastic
cut in oir• consumption of wheat
and other cerals. This European
crisis is peculiar in that it has
a d efinite -.erminW point, namely
next fall's Larvest. But until that
time all grains, and especially
wheat, will be scarce in America.
By the program which Hoover has
proposed, the United States is ex-pected
to cut wheat consumption
by forty per cent, (and fat con-sumption
by twenty per cent) in-order
to export 1,000,000 tons of
wheat to Europe every month
through July. But in the words of
President Truman, "Millions will
sup ely die unless we eat less."
That means that Bethelites may
be asked to go without some things
for a while. It is very likely that
bread and food containing much
wheat flour will be missing from
our tables. But the sane thing to
do is to eat less, cheerfully.
Let us tighten our belts, without
a groan or a grimace, that others
may live.

By Nettie Castle Term Paper
By Walfred Peterson
(A Clarion Reprint)
A term paper is one of the most
practical things done in college,
because it is very educational. The
writer takes notes on little cards
and therefore he remembers all
the information he gathered. (1)
A term paper also teaches the
importance of footnotes. The foot-note
can tell almost anything.
Every good term paper has as
many footnotes as possible, be-cause
a long list of references is
impressive to the professor. Foot-notes
are also necessary because
one must give the credit to the
person who had the bright idea.
If this is not done, the writer is
a plagarist. But since everyone
reads footnotes carefully, (2) they
will see the real author's name
and not think you a thief.
But before I go farther, I should
define a term paper. "Copying
from source—that's plagiarism,
copying • from several sources—
that's a term paper." (3)
It is very important that there
be a rather complete bibliography
at the end of the term paper. If
the professor finds a statement he
does not like,-he will turn to the
bibliography and find the book and
change his opinion in favor of the
student. (4) I, might add that if
the footnotes are complete you
need not turn to the bibliography
for the book and author. What's a
bibliography for then? (5)
A good set of footnotes contains
abbreviations. Latin abbreviations
are customary because they are so
profound-looking. "Ibid" means,
the footnote you read now is the
same as the footnote preceeding
this footnote. "Op. cit" means al-ready
fully cited in the paper. (6)
Let us say in conclusion that as
the teacher will tell you; "When
you really get into it, it is inter-esting."

It's seven-ten in the evening.
Already there's a long lineup in
the hallway for the phone booth.
You either "sweat out" the line or
let Ai Gustafson or Harris Johnson
get there first. If that happens
you might just as well get your
books and study while you wait.
Buckets of water or a jam session
outside the door doesn't shorten

During the winter the telephone
situation isn't so acute. Harris and

care to watch the procession, you
can just about se' the ,int , re situ-ation
for the J. S. Banquet, at a
glance, wihtout asking any ques-tions.
It is easy to tell when one
of the boys makes a date. He
comes from the booth, tripping a
light fantastic step and whistling
a merry tune. If he has been re-jected,
he uses the wall for a
support and slips quirtly back to
his room to check through his
little blue book again.
When you see Les Larson first
look up and down the hallway,
then make a mad dash to the
phone booth on his tip-toes and
slip inside, you know he's about
to work on that new list he's just
made over; a list of girls he fig-ures
might be still available.
Is it the spring weather and the
time for a young man's fancy to
turn to—other things, or what—
that is doing such an injustice to
our beloved dorm life? Every night
some guy wants to borrow a bow
tie or a shoe brush. Never before
have we seen spring weather bring
such an influx in--you know, twos
and twos.
"Hey, who are you taking, Mel?"
"Taking where? Whatcha talking
about?" "To the J. S. Don't you
remember? It's only three weeks
off." "Oh that,—I'm going stag.
I've been wondering why the girls
have been acting so extra nice
here lately."
Why only the other night we
saw Vernie Stoneberg come walk-ing
into Blomberg's with Eloise.
Of course they could have just met

Nine Loses
To N. A. S.
In its first home game of the
season, Bethel College lost to a
team from the Naval Air Station
in Minneapolis. The score at the
end of the eight-inning game read
Bethel 2, Navy 5. The game
brought the team's season record
to two victories and three defeats.
The Navy scored the first run
in the second inning on a hit and a
misjudged fly-ball. In the next two
innings the flyers scored the rest
of their runs, crossing the plate
twice in each inning. Meanwhile
To add a bit of spark to tomor-row's

Bethel bats had been very impo-tent,
and although they loaded the
bases in the fourth inning, the
diamond-men were unable to score.
Bethel did not break into the
scoring race until the sixth inning,
when Bud Peterson singled to
drive in both Nelson and Lands-burg,
but there was not enough
power in the Indians' bats to get
them back in the ball game. Earl
Landsburg showed signs of life in
the final inning when he tripled
to right center, but he was nipped
trying to steal home and nothing
came of the threat.
The game revealed, more force-fully
than ever, the weakness of
the Bethelites at the plate. Field-ing
was a little shaky in the first
few innings, and all five of the
Navy's runs were unearned, but it
was lack of hitting power that
made the difference between vic-tory
and defeat.
1171 Snelling Avenue North
Bethel Beats
Bethel College won its second
straight conference game on April
24 when it defeated Concordia on
the Comet's field by a score of
8-2. • The contest was close until
the last few innings when the
Indians began to solve the slants
of Concordia's pitcher Otto.
Concordia took the lead in the
early innings of the game when
Otto hit a long fly over center-fielder
Bob Daley's head for a
home run. The Bethelites remain-ed
trailers until the fifth inning
when they pushed across a tally
to tie the score at 1-1.
In the sixth frame the Indians
again went on the offensive, knock-ing
two runs across before they
were retired. The score then stood
Bethel 3, Concordia 1, and those
three runs would have been
enough to win the game, as it fi-nally
turned out.
The Comets came back in the
latter half of the inning and scored
one marker to keep the game
close. Bethel squeezed in another
score in the seventh to stretch
their lead to 4-2, but the game was
not put on ice until the eighth
when the visitors staged a four
run rally to insure the victory.
Concordia had a good chance to
score in the last of the eighth,
when they put men on second and
third with none out. However, dull
base-running allowed the Bethel-ites
to complete a double play to
relieve the threat.
Bill Peterson was Bethel's big
gun at the plate, collecting three
hits out of five trips to the plate,
and driving in five of the eight
runs. Bethel made a total of ten
hits, while Concordia was limited
to four.
.3e..r.ai Mama
Today I went to a baseball game,
and so I will write you about it.
I think baseball is more fun than
any other sport because the play-ers
wear such cute little outfits.
They wear caps with a wide
brimmed affair in the front and
pants with tight fitting legs and
bloomer-effect in the back. The
hose are long, with no heels or
toes, and white anklets are usu-ally
worn over the long hose. This
is mainly done because of laziness.
Why, most anyone would darn
their hose instead of wearing
another pair over the top! Shoes
are spiked, which saves on the
leather. They also add height.
The object of the game is to see
who can make the most noise, and
that is usually Walter Blaine Eddy,
Jr. He is known as the Huba
Huba man ... at least on the dia-mond.
To get on with the game,
one side gets out on the dirty,
dusty field. (The only clean man
as far as I can see is the referee,
as he always carries a little broom
around with him for dusting off
the plate.) Then the man throws
the 'ball, and our side swings at
the ball. Then the man throws
again, 'and finally someone hits
the ball back to him, and runs out
to greet the other team, but they
are not very nice, as they keep
trying to hit him. Scmetimes he
even falls down and skims along
the ground and they don't even
try to help him up! The same pro-cedure
is followed by the other
team, and this goes on for some
time until both sides get so hoarse
they cannot yell any longer, and
then everyone leaves.
Mama, there is one boy here who
is working his way through college
by advertising for Dutch Boy
paint, He wears red pants and a
blue cap. It is nice of them to
pay his way.
I am going to every game, as
maybe one of those handsome men
will take me to the S. J. Every
time they come my way I flash
them my most bewitching smile,
but I must look too much like a
witch, as they always run.
Got to go play ball now, mama.
I'm learning the game, and then
I'm going to try to convert the
players, mama 'cause I'm sure they
aren't Christians, as they are al-ways
yelling for someone to steal
the base, whatever that is. Will
see you in June.

New Bern Fire-Rescue paid a visit to the students of St. Paul Catholic School on Wednesday morning to talk about Fire Prevention Week, which ends Saturday.
New Bern Fire-Rescue paid a visit to the students of St. Paul Catholic School on Wednesday morning to talk about Fire Prevention Week, which ends Saturday.
Every year, the fire department visits eight area elementary schools in the area to teach students about the do�s and don�ts of fire safety, according to Jeremy Blalock, inspector with New Bern Fire-Rescue.
On Wednesday, the three-year-old, pre-k and kindergarten classes watched a puppet show put on by Fire Specialists Brandon Bersch, Craig Woolls, Kevin Blalock and Ricky Holt.
With the help of a smoke detector puppet, Fire Specialist Holt taught the students that it�s important to check the batteries in their home smoke detectors twice a year and if the detector sounds and there is smoke, they need to leave their homes immediately for a safe meeting place such as a mailbox, tree, fence or neighbor�s house.
To familiarize the young students with the sound of a smoke detector, Holt sounded one off, which caused quite a stir in the group of nearly 45 children. Ears were covered, and a few students even jumped, surprised by the loud noise.
Holt asked the children what number they should dial for an emergency and a slew of little voices spoke up and said �911.� There was, however, a little voice that piped up with confidence that 911 was the number to call for a taxi.
Another lesson for the students was the fact that matches and lighters are dangerous.
�Never play with matches or lighters,� Holt said. �They are tools, not toys.�
The youngsters appeared to be very engaged as they clapped their hands and swayed while the puppets sang upbeat songs to deliver messages about fire safety.
To draw the educational show to an end, Holt enlisted the help of two children, Robert Urban, a pre-k student, and Alexis Green, a kindergartner, to demonstrate �stop, drop and roll.� While covering their faces, Holt and the two children rolled around while the other kids laughed and learned a safety method that has been around for ages.
At the end, a boy said, �Awesome.�
Each grade learns about the different safety lessons, all in a grade level appropriate message, according to Danny Hill, fire marshal with New Bern Fire-Rescue.
Fire Prevention Week was initially established to honor the Great Chicago Fire in 1871. Each year, prevention week focuses on a different theme. This year�s theme is �Prevent Kitchen Fires,� according to the National Fire Protection Association website.

While there has been tremendous speculation that the Windows Phone 7.8 update would be released today, it's not going to happen. According to Terry Myerson, Microsoft's Corporate Vice President for Windows Phone, look for the update in early 2013.
The Windows Phone 7.8 update will bring the current crop of Windows Phone 7.5 devices (Samsung Focus 2, HTC Titan II, Nokia Lumia 900, etc.) as close to Windows Phone 8 as possible. Hardware restrictions prevent our old Windows Phones from making the full jump.
Myerson states,
"We know you're eager to get the Windows Phone 7.8 update, and we want you to know that we're working closely with our hardware and carrier partners to get it tested, approved, and rolled out to as many devices as possible in early 2013. As we work to quickly get this in the hands of our loyal users, we're also striving to deliver a high-quality release and ensure a smooth transition for our widely expanded services."
The 7.8 update will bring the new Start Screen, Lock Screen, accent colors and more to the Windows Phone 7.5 devices, giving them a new feel.
