Anyone can be the victim of intimate partner violence (IPV). Recognizing the characteristics of IPV and having a safety plan in place can save your life.
Defining IPV
IPV is a pattern of physically, psychologically, and/or emotionally abusive behavior directed at a current or past intimate partner. It is often used interchangeably with domestic violence and domestic abuse. IPV includes a wide range of behaviors that involves two people who are connected and in touch with one another. This may include those who may be living together or apart, dating, married, separated, or divorced.
There are 4 main components of IPV that may include one or more of the following:
- Physical violence—Use of physical force, which may include choking, grabbing, hitting, burning, restraining, or biting someone. It may also include forcing someone to commit these acts on someone else. Although it may not be the intent, physical violence can lead to injury, permanent disability, or death.
- Psychological aggression—Verbal or non-verbal cues are used to control another person emotionally or coerce them into doing something they do not want to. Examples include monitoring someone's wherabouts, name-calling, using someone's weaknesses against them, and playing mind games. It also includes limiting aspects of their life like money, transportation, friends, or work in order to control them and make them dependent.
- Sexual violence—There are several categories associated with attempted or completed sexual violence. Sexual violence occurs when e a sexual act is done without consent of the victim or if the victim is unable to give consent because of factors like intoxication, disability, or lack of awareness. Sexual violence may also involve forcing someone to commit these acts on someone else.
- Stalking—A pattern of repeated and unwanted attention that causes someone to fear for their own safety. Stalking includes spying, showing up in places where the victim may be, damaging the victim's property, or making verbal and non-verbal threats to the victim.
Who IPV Affects
IPV cuts across all age, economic, educational, cultural, and religious backgrounds. It is most commonly associated with violence against women committed by men. However, men are also victims of IPV. Relationships include a spectrum of couples that may be homosexual, bisexual, and/or transgender. Children are also at risk of exposure to IPV in the home.
Characteristics of an Abuser
Although abusers come from all walks of life, they tend to have some characteristics in common. These include:
- Being possessive and jealous of any other relationships their partner has
- Wanting to exert control to keep their partner from leaving
- Being verbally and/or physically hurtful
- Blaming others for their problems
- Sudden mood changes, which may quickly shift between affection and abuse
Common Signs of Abuse
Physical Abuse
Examples of physical abuse include:
- Hitting, shoving, punching, kicking, choking
- Throwing or destroying things
- Blocking you from leaving the room or house
- Subjecting you to reckless driving
- Threatening or hurting you with a weapon
Emotional Abuse
The abuser does things to make the victim feel scared, worthless, and helpless. Again, this is a pattern of behavior, not just an occasional insult. Examples include:
- Insulting, blaming, criticizing, name-calling
- Humiliating you in public
- Accusing you of having affairs
- Controlling all the money and making you account for every penny
- Telling you what to do, where to go, and who you can see
- Threatening or hurting your children
Sexual Abuse
Sexual abuse can be sexual acts, demands, or insults. Examples include:
- Unwanted touching or sexual comments
- Calling you sexual names, such as "slut" or "frigid"
- Forcing you to have sex
- Attacking your sexual body parts or hurting you during sex
- Withholding birth control, then coercing an abortion
Knowing If You or Somone Is Abused
Ask yourself these questions about your partner:
- Does your partner shove, hit, shake, or slap you?
- Does your partner make light of the abuse, insist that it did not happen, or shift the responsibility for his abusive behavior, blaming you for it?
- Does your partner continually put you down, call you names, or humiliate you?
- Does your partner intimidate you through looks or actions, destroy your property, or display weapons?
- Does your partner control what you do, who you see and talk to, and where you go, limiting your involvement outside the relationship?
- Are you made to feel guilty about the children, or has your partner threatened to take the children away?
Ask yourself these questions about your friend or family member who may be experiencing abuse:
- Does she appear anxious, depressed, withdrawn, and reluctant to talk?
- Does her partner criticize her in front of you, making remarks that make you feel uncomfortable when you are around the two of them?
- Do you see or hear about repeated bruises, broken bones, or other injuries that reportedly result from "accidents"?
- Does her partner try to control her every move, make her account for her time, and accuse her of having affairs?
- Is she often late or absent from work, has she quit a job altogether, or does she leave social engagements early because her partner is waiting for her?
How Are Children Affected?
Abuse often filters down to any children who may be in the home. Child abuse occurs much more often in families where IPV is present. Also, IPV against the mother has been associated with an increased risk of death for the children.
Whether children are being abused directly or just living with abuse around them, their lives are disrupted. They can experience fear, confusion, and pain. This greatly increases their chance of developing emotional and behavioral problems, such as low self-esteem, withdrawal, self-blame, aggression toward others, and problems in school and relationships. They learn that violence is acceptable, they are at greater risk for committing criminal or self-destructive behavior, and they are more likely to become abusers as adults.
Finding Help
If you or someone you know is being abused, seek help. Talk with someone you trust, such as a close friend or relative. Consider calling a domestic violence hotline and talking with a counselor. Some online resources will protect you when using their website by erasing your history and/or closing the browser with the push of a button with your mouse.
Have an honest talk with your doctor. Because of new recommendations, your doctor may ask questions about your home life and safety. They are also better equipped to put you in the hands of those who can help you with referrals, and educational and prevention information.
Remember, IPV is not your fault, and no one ever has the right to abuse another person. You have a right to be safe and,help is available.
Planning for Your Safety
If you are in an abusive relationship, it is important to have a safety plan. Such a plan can be helpful whether you are trying to stay in or leave the relationship. An IPV counselor can help you develop a plan tailored to your needs. Listed below are some common elements of a safety plan:
- Set up a signal with your neighbors so they can call the police if you are in danger.
- Get a restraining order if you need legal protection to keep your abuser away from you.
- Plan an escape route and a safe place to go, such as to relatives, friends, or a domestic violence shelter.
Keep items listed below easily accessible for an emergency or if you want to leave. Consider keeping some of them, including copies of important papers, with a trusted relative or friend.
- Important phone numbers and phone calling card
- Money, checkbook, ATM, and credit cards
- Driver's license
- Keys for home, car, and office
- Important papers for you and your children, including birth certificates
- Social security cards, health insurance cards, and medical and school records
- Restraining order and information—including photographs—that will document past abuse
- Medications
- Change of clothes
- Children's favorite toys/blankets
If you suspect that you will be leaving the relationship, try and obtain a credit card or debit card in your own name so that your abuser cannot cancel the cards. If you are ever in danger—or feel that you or your children are about to be in danger—call for emergency medical services. In a growing number of cities and towns across the US, law enforcement personnel are trained specifically to handle cases of domestic violence.

A gang battered a gay couple in a "horrific" homophobic assault as they made their way home after a night out.
Graham Munday, 42, and his partner Tony Minion, 52, told how they were kicked and punched in the head by five youths as they walked hand in hand through Brighton in the early hours of Saturday morning (December 15).
The incident comes ten years after Mr Munday was left with a broken nose after a similar homophobic attack.
Speaking to The Argus, he said: "It was horrible. You don't expect that kind of thing to happen any more, especially in Brighton.
"It's been nearly ten years since I was first attacked and I thought that things had changed. I'm just devastated."
The couple were making their way back to their Grove Hill flat, in Brighton, following a night out in Kemp Town.
At around 2.30am they walked past the Blind Tiger Club on Grand Parade when five youths approached them.
Mr Munday, whose voice was trembling as he relived the horrific attack, said: "They started shouting homophobic abuse at us.
"Then they started punching.
"It was just terrifying, there was nothing we could do."
His partner, Mr Minion added: "There were too many of them and they just knocked me to the floor.
"I couldn't get up and then they started kicking me in the back and the head.
"There was a group of people nearby who just stood there and did nothing, that's the worst thing about it."
The couple dialled 999 and officers were on the scene in minutes.
The men are described as white, in their twenties and wearing casual clothes.
Bloodied and suffering from shock, the couple rushed to the safety of a nearby friend's house.
Mike Nelson, 49, who was woken by the sound of the doorbell, opened the front door to see his pals in a terrible state.
He said: "They were both extremely distressed and had a number of cuts and bruises.
"I sat them down, patched them up and gave them a cup of tea."
"Graham was attacked a few years ago and he's just devastated that this has happened again.
"He isn't someone who shows a lot of public affection so this will really knock his confidence."
'Better education'
Mr Munday, who works in mediation, appeared on the front page of The Argus back in 2002 when he was set upon by a gang of youths just a couple of roads away on Ashton Rise.
On that occasion, the then 32-year-old was left with a broken nose and two black eyes.
He added: "It's just really upsetting that this can still happen.
"I don't think the law is a problem, that's all in place. There needs to be better education for people like this."
Police are investigating the incident and anyone who witnessed the attack or has any information should contact them on 101.

Last night I was working in my garden in the back of my house. It is cooler at night and the area is well lit, so I sometimes prefer nighttime gardening.
Anyway, when I was almost done re-potting some plants, I felt a sting on my left calf. I looked down and there was a 4 inch centipede, not the big one with blue legs, but the smaller fast one. I brushed it off but the damage was done. I went inside to wash the bite, put rubbing alcohol, some neosporin, and some cortizone. It burned for a few hours (like a jellyfish sting) but that was it.
So here is the point. I looked down at that centipede on my leg and thought that is must be thinking: "Take that Karate man! Block this!" Just keeping it real.
I think this was my first centipede bite. Lucky I am not allergic. Most people don't know this but we have little scorpions here too -- I saw one a month ago in my eldest son's yard. I will have to be more careful.

Update -- Nakata Sensei
It has been quite an active and overwhelming time since February when my very good friend and senior, Sensei Pat Nakata, passed away. To be honest, it is still hard for me to believe that he is no longer with us. He was such an active and generous person. We ate lunch and dinner together at so many places that I always expect to see him.
I felt the same way about my Aikido Sensei, Sadao Yoshioka. This was especially true when I recently went to a graduation party at the Natsunoya teahouse. That was the place where Yoshioka Sensei has his kanreki (60th birthday) back in the 1980s.
With respect to Karate, I am at a loss without Nakata Sensei's guidance. Whenever I had a question about a style or teacher, I would not look for the information in books -- I would simply call or see him. He was literally a walking encyclopedia of Okinawan Karate. He would either tell me about his personal experiences with the style or teacher, or share Chosin Chibana's recollections. I was always amazed by Nakata Sensei stories. I had the good fortune to hear some of the same stories many times over the years and they never changed. His memory and attention to detail was phenomenal, even during the last two years when his health condition declined.
I also relied on Nakata Sensei whenever I wanted to know what a particular movement meant. He practiced Chibana Shorin-Ryu and I practice Kishaba Juku Shorin-Ryu. Although our kata are not identical, they are similar enough for comparison (same but different).
I have watched a lot of people demonstrate the meaning (or "imi") of kata both live and on various DVDs and videos. Nakata Sensei's explanations were always very down to earth and brutally effective. There was no "fluff" or "puff" or guesswork. Basically, there was just a lot of pain.
Once he told me about Chibana Sensei demonstrating a certain throw to him. He had asked Chibana Sensei how the throw could be done if the attacker was not wearing a gi or strong clothes ("how would you grab?"). Chibana Sensei said "come, come" and demonstrated the answer. I then said, "What did Chibana Sensei do?" Nakata Sensei said, "come, come" with a gesturing motion of his hands. I walked up to Nakata Sensei and he grabbed me by one ear and the side of my neck. With a twist of his hands I was helpless and in a perfect position for him to throw me. Chibana Sensei had demonstrated the same thing on him.
I had practiced Karate for quite a while when this happened, but I have to admit that I was not thinking about a counter at the time -- I was just flailing around and half-screaming. Good thing that Nakata Sensei was my good friend and was only moving lightly. I would hate to see him mad.
I actually did see him a little mad -- just once. During one of our lunches with senior Sensei, I excused myself to go to the rest room so that I could pay for the bill. Nakata Sensei almost always paid the bill and I wanted to pay for this lunch. When the lunch finished and the waiter came, Nakata Sensei asked for the bill and was told that I had already paid it. Nakata Sensei informed me in an especially firm tone that I should not do that again. (I was honestly scared.)
Now I understand that the host pays the bill unless it is addressed in advance. After that, I would offer to pay the bill before we got together and things were fine. But even then, Nakata Sensei was the one who usually hosted and paid for everyone. He was extremely generous, not jsut monetarily but of his time. He would think nothing about driving half way across Oahu to pick up a Sensei so that he could attend a lunch.
Our lunches were really something -- two or three hours of nothing but Karate talk. When other seniors would come, we would talk about their styles and experiences. What an excellent overview of the arts! I almost hated to return to work!
So it has been difficult for me since February.
But... during that time I completed the donation of the third increment of rare Karate and martial arts books, magazines, and multi-media to the University of Hawaii for the Hawaii Karate Museum Collection. This increment was 10 boxes, and included some of the very oldest and rarest materials in the collection.
The third and final part of my article about Shozen Sunabe was published by Classical Fighting Arts and is now available. Sunabe Sensei (a student of Chotoku Kyan) is another person I sorely miss.
I am preparing right now for the Okinawan Festival which will be held on the Labor Day weekend at Kapiolani Park. This year I am giving two exhibits: the first on Okinawan Sumo and the second about the Pacific Mail Company's S. S. China, the steamship that brought the first Okinawan immigrants to Hawaii in January 1900. I received grants for these projects from Hui O Laulima. The exhibits will be in the Cultural Tent. I will also write an article about the S. S. China (I have a ton of great material).
I am also teaching and studying Karate as usual. The other night I told the students to always remember that they are students, and that I am the biggest student in our group because I have been studying the longest and continue to try to improve each day. I will never brag about being a good instructor or about rank and titles. If I ever brag, it will be about never giving up as a student. So when it comes to Karate, I am still working at it.
Thank you very much to several readers who have inquired about my health. I am fine, thank you.

Guest Speakers to Emphasize
Christian Dynamic Significance
Ninety-one years after its be-ginning,
Bethel's commemorative
Founders Week can look ahead to
an expansive, promising future.
by Judy Dow
"The Christian dynamic is ulti-mately
more influential in shaping
the issues that matter than all
physical energy known to science,"
stated President Lundquist in his
introduction of the 1962 Founders
Week conference, "The Christian
Dynamic in a Nuclear World."
Approximately 1700 pastors,
missionaries, and interested per-sons
are expected to attend the
annual week-long conference, which
has gradually been developing into
a program seeking to find a whole-some
blend between current evan-gelical
scholarship and devotional
The conference will host such

SPAN Presents Unique Opportunities
For Bethel Students to Study Abroad
The "Dynamic of Godly Lives,"
an address on three of Bethel's
historical personalities, is the focal
point of the annual historical ban-quet,
the first main event of Foun-ders
Week, Monday, Feb. 19, at
6:30 p.m. The banquet is also the

1922 to 1925, and teacher from
1920-1940; Karl J. Karlson, dean
of the seminary 1925 to 1948 and
teacher of practical theology; and
Adolph Olson, who at some point
during his 36 years at Bethel
taught every course in the semin-ary
except Hebrew.

"Dynamic of Godly Lives"
Highlights Annual Banquet
Special Week Anticipated The influx of approximately 1,000 people during Founders Week is
somewhat disruptive for both students and visitors because of limited
facilities. However, this year inconveniences will be less noticeable with
the promise of a new campus in the relatively near future.
It is hoped that each person attending the week's activities will find
them educationally broadening as well as spiritually stimulating and
socially enjoyable.
Even though students' time is limited by continued classroom respon-sibilities,
they are urged to utilize the opportunities for interaction wth
the prominent Christian leaders visiting the campus.
Possibilities Envisioned
In SPAN, Lectureship Although there is no premeditation involved, it happens that the
CLARION has nothing but plaudits to hand out in this Founders Week
Congratulations are definitely in order for the Bethel faculty deci-sion
to join SPAN. Encouragement of student interest in studying abroad
has been rather neglected and this positive move may herald a new era
in educational experiences for Bethel students.
The many advantages of the SPAN program are difficult to enum-erate.
To the student chosen to spend the summer abroad, the experience
fosters increased understanding of his own culture and its relationship
to the problems and culture of the country he has studied. For a Chris-tian
who has international obligations, intensive work with another cul-ture
may be invaluable. A bonus effect of the study abroad may be
greater maturity with which to use the insights gained. In addition, most
students return with a working knowledge of a foreign language and
may earn college credit upon completion of the study project.
Although students must pay a large share of their expenses, many
have found that the benefits of the program are avluable enough to bor-row
the needed funds in order to participate.
The deadline date is rapidly approaching so students must seriously
consider their future plans to decide if SPAN should be included in them.
* *
Mention must also be made of the newly announced Bethel lecture-ship.
The possibilities of such a program are exciting to contemplate.
One of the interesting features of the proposal is the decision of the
convocation committee to place the initiative for locating the speaker and
planning the program with any person or group on campus. This may
place the responsibility for success or failure of the program squarely
where it belongs.

Bethel Students Eligible

The University of Minnesota Con-cert
Band Ensemble, in concert at
Bethel on the evening of Feb. 6,
substantiated Mr. Whittinger's in-troduction
as "one of the truly
great bands of the country"—and
also proved that concert band mu-sic
can be an exciting experience.
The fifty-member ensemble at-tained
a fullness of orchestral son-ority
that might have been expect-ed
only of a larger group. Melodic
and tonal balance was maintained
throughout, demonstrating both
subtle and bold harmonic intri-cacies.
Complex rhythmical pat-terns
were executed with outstand-ing
A more formal format might
have been expected. At times the
informality detracted from the
more serious quality of the music,
i.e. the piccolo player's cross-legged
disinterest during Handel's "Con-certo
Grosso." Generally, the cas-ual
approach created a congenial,
sympathetic rapport between aud-ience
and musicians. This, in turn,
evoked from the listeners a higher
degree of aesthetic involvement in
the music as it was being perform-ed.
Dr. Frank Bencriscutto conducted
and moderated the concert, which
opened with the "Roman Carnival"
by the early nineteenth century
realist Berlioz. This energetic mu-sical
painting was highlighted by
the very capable English horn solo
work of Miss Philis Blood and the
lively interplay of the various in-strumental
sections. Rhythmic com-plexities,
instrumental interplay,
and dramatic contrasts made Hart-ley's
"Rondo for Winds and Per-cussion"
an exciting and stimulat-ing
The thematic variation of con-temporary
composer Morton Gould
and the pure, relaxing melodic sim-plicity
of Gian Carlo Menotti kept
the well-varied presentation at an
untiring pace. Minor raggedness
in the accompaniment did not de-tract
from the obvious mechanical
proficiency of the clarinet trio in
Handel's "Concerto Grosso." The
majesty one expects in a compo-sition
by Bach pervaded the per-formance
of "If Thou Be Near,"
built on a firm, rich foundation of
low brass.
Music in a lighter vein was also
well represented. Clarinetist Peter
Vollmers displayed a fine baritone
voice—in spite of the overzealous
band accompaniment—on Bencris-cutto's
arrangement of "September
Song." The performance of the
"Sound of Music Medley" caught
the romantic spirit of the song.
Marches of the traditional classi-cal,
and concert forms were spirit-edly
performed. Particularly stir-ring
was the "Marche Militaire
Francaise," which exhibited mech-anical
proficiency in all sections.
A highlight of the evening was
the conductor's composition, "Meta-morphosis"
— an instrumental re-counting
of the unfolding of a life.
Section one, "Childhood" captured
both the innocent beauty and play-fulness
of youth. Confusion, strug-gle,
and romance, depicted in
"Adolescence" led into the majesty
of "Maturity." This highly emo-tional
piece brought into clear
focus the musical competency of
both the composer-conductor and
the ensemble.

On Feb. 6, President Charles
De Gaulle gave a television report
to the French nation, covering the
entire range of domestic and for-eign
policy. This latest message
was noteworthy in that it was
couched in less Delphic language
than is sometimes the General's
wont. The speech was most re-markable,
however, in the conci-sion
with which the twin goals of
his policy were outlined in the
name of grandeur.
For the sake of political gran-deur,
De Gaulle would have France
assume the leadership of what he
sometimes calls "a Europe of na-tions"
capable of speaking as a
superpower, while for the sake of
moral grandeur, he would have
France complete the arduous pro-cess
of de-colonization by granting
Algeria its freedom.
Very shortly after the speech
was given, the OAS (Secret Army
Organization) reacted to the pro-posals
with increased violence. De
Gaulle, in turn, threatened to use
dictatorial powers against the rebel
group, a right granted him under
the new constitution written when
he assumed the presidency in 1958.
De Gaulle's chances of achieving
his goals are not by any means
An unusual exchange program
has been instituted by the United
States National Student Associa-tion
(NSA). Selected students will
spend a week studying, observing,
meeting students, and visiting at
Tougaloo Southern Christian Col-lege
in Mississippi.
Tougaloo is one of the few fully
accredited institutions of higher
education which Negroes can at-tend.
The college has always main-tained
an integrated faculty and
admissions policy, drawing most
of its 500 students from Mississippi.
auspicious. His political grandeur
may prove quite as difficult, if less
dramatically arduous, to attain than
his moral grandeur in Algeria. But
no one can complain that De Gaulle
lacks a policy or that he isn't
trying to realize it.
Since De Gaulle was so explicit
in his hopes and plans, we are
drawn to a close examination of
his message in the desire to glean
some indications of the events
which are going to transpire in the
days ahead.
Much was inferred which has
bearing on future negotiations for
nuclear disarmament. We must re-member
that De Gaulle hopes to
make France the only independent
nuclear power on the continent
west of Russia, thus gaining ascen-dancy
over other Western Euro-pean
Many allied generals and states-men
argue that this is folly, that
France can never hope to create a
sufficiently powerful striking force
to impress the USSR. At best its
deterrent value, obtained at vast
cost, would be limited to a counter-city
threat. (Sulzberger)
This all is an important factor
for President Kennedy's considera-tion
in his present efforts to man-euver
Russia into a corner on the
Any Bethel student is eligible to

atmospheric question as he strives
for a breakthrough for an effective
nuclear test ban. (Dispatch)
The whole world also watches an-xiously
for the climax of the vio-lent
drama in Algeria as optimistic
possibilities present themselves for
an agreement between De Gaulle
and the FLN (Algerian party).
French government contacts with
the Moslem rebels have not been
officially acknowledged by either
side, but is is an open secret that
a cease-fire and an agreement
leading to independence await only
the resolution of certain details of
the accession of a million Euro-peans
of Algeria to citizenship in
the new state and the organization
and duration of a transitional re-gime.
(Times, Feb. 5)
The FLN has recently tempered
its proposals for complete inde-pendence
and has become more
sympathetic to the possibility of a
Franco-Algerian consortium inclu-sive
of Algerian autonomy. This
results out of their fear of being
excluded from the recently insti-tuted
Common Market. Algerian
high officials are becoming in-creasingly
aware that their free-dom
could easily result only in a
freedom to starve.
De Gaulle also seems to be try-ing
to force the hand of the FLN
by publicizing his intention to im-pose
his own solution on Algeria
if an agreement with the FLN is
not reached in the next few weeks.
His solution is based on a regroup-ment
of the French settlers along
the coast (a kind of temporary
partition) as a first step to bring-ing
many of them back to France,
and on a setting up of an Algerian
executive with a Muslim majority.
Looking into the future it has
been strongly hinted that, once the
Algerian problem is settled, Presi-dent
De Gaulle will dissolve the
National Assembly and call for new
elections to take advantage of the
wave of popularity he expects to
follow the end of the war.
Before such a grand outcome is
seen, however, I foresee many
headlines dealing with riots in
France instigated by yet another
force with vested interests—the
This last week saw a "Red-pro-voked"
general strike in Paris
which is a precursor of more to
follow. The demonstration was held
under the guise of a protest for
more positive action against the
OAS (party of Algerian colons).
But the actual motivation for ag-gravating
the situation arises out
of a Communist desire for a full-scale
civil war. Their reasoning
sees Communism's own power en-hanced
relative to all of the other
forces, which would be thereby

More than any other theologian
of modern times, Reinhold Niebuhr
centers his theology in the doctrine
of man. Man's relation to man is
his primary concern, one out of
which all other doctrines, even the
doctrine of God, derives.

is also a free spirit who knows the
brevity of his years and by this
knowledge transcends the temporal

cause man is a finite being who is
capable of spirituality. As a spirit-ual
being, he seeks to find the
meaning of life, but because of his
finiteness every meaning he finds
is threatened. This struggle for
meaning gives rise to anxiety which
in turn gives rise to sin.
Man is kept in this paradox—
this dialectic—between his finite
existence and his infinite capabili-ties.
His anxiety arises out of the
paradox. "Anxiety is the inevitable
concomitant of the paradox of
freedom and finiteness in which
man is involved. Anxiety is the in-ternal
pre-condition of sin. It is the
inevitable spiritual state of man
standing in the paradoxical situa-tion
of freedom and finiteness. An-xiety
is the internal description of
the state of temptation."
To overcome this state of an-xiety,
man can react in two ways,
both of which are sinful. He may
sin into carnal sensuality, or he
may assert himself in pride. In his
pride, he refuses to recognize his
finiteness and claims for himself
that which belongs to God alone.
This arrogant self-assertion in
which he claims infinite and spirit-ual
worth is sin.
Niebuhr recognizes three kinds
of pride: pride of knowledge, pride
of power, and moral pride. Each
of these are self-assertions of

of the forests, Mr. Havens makes
careful study of the basic elements
in nature. But he is not bound by
a traditional representation of na-ture.
Apart from definite symbolic
associations, his subjects stand as
extraordinary compositions in
I believe his attention to the
fundamental forms is clearly mani-fested
in his work. There is a cer-tain
order and completeness which
shows to advantage his profound
ability to capture these compon-ents
of our perfectly created uni-verse
in oil paint and charcoal. This
feeling emanates from his paint-ings
by his use of constructed
shapes and rhythm of movement.
The intregal parts of his paintings
have a vibrancy and rhythm in
themselves while working together
to achieve a total effect as in his
"Silent Transmutation." (see a-bove)
In this painting there is a sense
of inward pressure exerted by rock
formations. At the same time, the
painting possesses the feeling of
growth and expansion which is in
direct relation to his subject's char-acteristics.
By his mere choice of
titles, his awareness of this con-stantly
changing nature is appar-ent.
Keith Haven's charcoal drawings
do not lack any of the excitement
and uniqueness of his oil paintings.
His deft handling of value rela-tionships

riots sweeping innocents to their
death, with political strikes threat-ened
by the temporary union of
Catholic and Communist labor un-ions,
the head of state supported
by a strong majority in the Na-tional
Assembly cannot be sure he
can rely on his final source of
power—the army.
Of course, one need not shed
tears for De Gauule. Tears should
be saved for the people of France.
De Gaulle came to power in 1958
because the army had told the
government that it was De Gaulle
or revolution. De Gaulle played his
part in letting the military have
its way. Now he finds that gener-als
once successful in politics are
likely to play the game again.
The lesson should be clear. When
the military becomes the master
instead of the servant, power gravi-tates
from the democratically elect-ed
officials to that section of the
officer class which can act boldly
and temporally count on the disci-pline
it has created in the rank and
file. Presidents, legislators and
judges do not pack guns. Generals
not only do, but their subordinates
do also.
Americans would do well to
think on France as they wonder if
General Walker should have been
disciplined by the Pentagon. If
they do, they will applaud the de-cision
that helped send the General
back to try for legal power at the
ballot box in Texas.
From Napoleon to De Gaulle by
way of a score or more corpses
of democracies, we have seen that
however necessary the military is,
it is a potential threat to demo-cratic
government. Therefore,
democracies must make the mili-tary
as politically neutral as pos-sible.
High military officers must be
kept strictly subordinated to the
commander-in-chief, who is alone
finally responsible to the people
and Congress, for whom he consti-tutionally
acts. When officers
speak, write and educate the troops
they must do it as the scrupulously
loyal servants of an acknowledged
But, some protest, do not offi-cers
have freedom of speech ? The
answer ought to be clear! As offi-cers,
no! No more than does the
private who stands in the ranks.
Where in annals of military his-tory
have officers taught that
military personnel can debate
points of policy ? Imagine the sit-uation
when "Sad Sack" contends
that at this time the order to
charge is ill advised. An officer
answers such free speech with im-mediate
force, if necessary.
If the officer must speak, he can
resign. Then let him try for power
in ways that befit democracy.

Bethel Drops
Game, 56-65
An eight-minute scoring drought
plus the hot hand of Jack Povaser
and the all-around play of Frank
Hunter spelled defeat for Bethel
Tuesday night as the Royals were
submerged 65-56 by the Northland
Lumberjacks. The win extended
Northland's league-leading Badger-
Gopher conference mark to 8-0
while the Royals dropped below
.500 at 3-4.
It looked as if Bethel might get
the breaks for a change when Po-vaser,
8th in the nation with a 29-
point average, incurred his third
foul with 9:45 left in the first half.
Bethel seemingly didn't want the
breaks however, as they were
guilty of numerous violations and
defensive lapses. The 'Jacks went
to the dressing room with a 38-35
halftime lead, Povaser counting 21
of their first half points including
10 of 14 attempts from the field.
The Royals came on strong at
the beginning of the second half,
and two quick baskets by Dan
Westerlund finally tied the score
at 44 with 14:10 remaining. This
was to be the Royal's last point
until Westerlund would score again
with 6:13 remaining.
It was the old story of not
enough height combined with cold
shooting. Phil Bolinder and Jan
Kolbrek both rebounded well, but
it simply was not enough against
the 6'7" Hunter and 6'4 Tom Fri-zell.
Hunter was also a terror on
defense as he bocked at least seven
shots from close range in the sec-ond
Povaser led all scorers with 27
points, while Hunter added 19 for
the winners. Bajuniemi played an
outstanding game and led Bethel
scoring with 24 points while Wes-terlund
collected 17. Northland
shot 41 % from the field while
Bethel managed only 22 of 69 shots
for 32%.
The Fighting Muskie skyscrapers
of Lakeland's Bob Griggas proved
to be too much for the Bethel
Royals as the Wisconsin school
upped their Badger-Gopher record
to 6-1 with a 107-92 win last Fri-day.
The likes of 6'10" Wes Seyller,
6'7" Dean Sandifer, and 6'6 Em-ery
Holbert were too much for the
scrappy but short Bethelites.
Again, however, it was 5'11"
John Bell who led the scoring for
the winners with 21 points. Bell
tallied 31 in the first meeting of
the schools, won by Lakeland 90-
79. Seyller tallied 19 while San-difer
and Sammy Forrest each col-lected
16. Dan Westerlund led all
scorers with 24 points, while Jan
Kolbrek poured through 21.

Since there are no Beadle or Northwestern games to reflect upon,
the column this time will be a rather unorganized polyglot of fact,
opinions, and other material guaranteed to occupy space.
The between-semester ski trip was a sliding success . . . the group
stayed at the Salem Baptist Church in Ashland, Wis., and some of
the group participated in the Sunday evening service . . . a total of
about 35 students and faculty members endured the jolting journey in
the school bus and two private cars . . . one of the cars did have over-drive
according to Coach Glader . . . Glader also reports that there
were many broken skis but no broken bones . . . as the business office
breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking ahead to the golf season we find that Don Mattson and
James (Higsby) Hultgren, two of Coach Healy s top prospects, are
academically ineligible—but we still have Denny Johnson!
The wrestling team is also having eligibility problems in the persons
of Bob Baffa and Mike Miller ... which is all too bad but what else
can you expect in a low-pressure athletic program ? They lost at River
Falls Feb. 9 after giving Macalester B a rough go of it the previous
week, before losing a close one ... Paul Sloan, Paul Anderson, and Miller
were victorious in the Mac meet.
The B basketball team is also having its problems which started
Jan. 18 with a 53-27 defeat from Macalester ... a rebound against Min-nesota
Bible College produced a 51-39 win with Roger Olson's 11 points
being high ... a combination of Northi,vestern's A and B squads was
sufficient to inflict a 52-47 setback on Coach Glader's charges and the
losing habit continued with a 74-64 loss from Minnesota School of
Business ... Dan Travaille, a last-minute addition to the squad, scored
14 while Bruce Erickson had 13.
Bethel Joins Fraternity ■
Sprinkel Named Prexy
by Rick McNamara
A fraternity ? At Bethel ? Be-lieve-
it-or-not, it has happened.
Bethel College recently became the
126th school to join the Sigma
Delta Psi National Athletic Fra-ternity.
The Bethel chapter, designated
as Epsilon Beta, awarded five hon-orary
memberships to establish a
foundation for the organization.
President of the local chapter is
Eugene Sprinkel, with Owen Hal-leen
as vice-president, Jerry Healy
as secretary-treasurer, Gene Glader
as faculty patron, and Phillip Carl-son
as the "fifth member."
Active membership is composed
of those who possess the necessary
all-around athletic skill to pass the
14 rigid tests. The 15th require-ment
is a scholastic standing which
would enable the person to be eli-gible
for varsity competition.
Glader reports that the chapter
is planning a "day" sometime in
February or March for those in-terested
in attempting the skill
tests. As an indication of the dif-ficulty
of the requirements, Glader
pointed out that the University of
Minnesota chapter has passed only
an average of two per year since
their group was established in
1914. Other Minnesota schools with
chapters include Macalester, Con-cordia,
and St. Olaf.
Glader feels that the chapter
will stimulate and improve the
physical fitness level of both fac-ulty
members and students. He
feels that it "presents a well-estab-lished
set of norms in various skills
which makes it possible for all to
see where they stand in relation to
others in athletic ability and over-all
physical fitness."
In addition to the special days
set aside for testing, Glader, Hal-leen,
and Healy will also pass an
individual on any specific test at
any time previous arrangements
are made.

completely de-glamourizes everything. It's the saddest beauty I think I've ever seen. Did I like the movie? I don't know, and I don't really care. I'm just glad I've seen it.
I mean, typically you have a scene where a moment is created, staged and observed but with Malick- you get the feeling that the moment has always existed and luckily enough someone was there to capture it.
a flatness for me. The images don't seem to crash anymore, and I feel like he's lost a grounding in character
I loved how this movie showed the character walking inside his own memories. It felt like watching LA as if I were remembering the town.
Philosophical conclusionsThis theory leads to:1. Idealism, since it denies things in themselves (besides monads) and multiplies them in different points of view. Monads are perpetual living mirrors of the universe.2. Metaphysical optimism, through the principle of sufficient reason, developed as follows:a) Everything exists according to a reason (by the axiom "Nothing arises from nothing");b) Everything which exists has a sufficient reason to exist;c) Everything which exists is better than anything non-existent (by the first point: since it is more rational, it also has more reality), and, consequently, it is the best possible being in the best of all possible worlds (by the axiom: "That which contains more reality is better than that which contains less reality").
they are eternal, indecomposable, individual, subject to their own laws, un-interacting, and each reflecting the entire universe in a pre-established harmony (a historically important example of panpsychism). [...] Monads are centers of force; substance is force, while space, matter, and motion are merely phenomenal.
Where The Tree of Life is filled with memories, is even about memory, Knight of Cups is close to a first-person act of remembering, and the ecstatic power of its images and sounds is a virtual manifesto, and confession, of the cinematic mind at work.
Within its lavishly overflowing beauty, Knight of Cups is an angrily prescriptive film, the contention of which is: the bullshit of Hollywood lives is reflected in the bullshit of Hollywood movies, including the ones that Malick has made. If filmmakers can make films in which they see that bullshit for themselves and let other people see it, too, they might well find a way both to live differently and to work differently.
The crucial question of the modern novel is memoryspecifically, the tension between fiction and nonfiction, between the sharp-edged exclusivity of the contours of a finely crafted story and the loose-ended and associatively meandering and indeterminate formlessness of experience as captured (or trapped) in memory.
Treat this world as it deserves, there are no principles, just circumstances. Nobody's home.
You think when you reach a certain age things will start making sense, and you find out that you are just as lost as you were before. I suppose that's what damnation is. The pieces of your life never to come together, just splashed out there.

WikiLeaks: Snowden makes expanded asylum requests
WASHINGTON — National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, believed to be in legal limbo in the Moscow airport, is expanding his requests for asylum to another 19 countries, including China, according to WikiLeaks.
WikiLeaks, the anti-secrecy group that has adopted Snowden and his cause, on Monday night posted a statement said to be from Snowden that slammed President Barack Obama for "using citizenship as a weapon."
Story Continued Below
"Although I am convicted of nothing, it has unilaterally revoked my passport, leaving me a stateless person," Snowden says in the statement. "Without any judicial order, the administration now seeks to stop me exercising a basic right. A right that belongs to everybody. The right to seek asylum.
( PHOTOS: Where Snowden wants to go)
"Their purpose is to frighten, not me, but those who would come after me."
WikiLeaks legal adviser Sarah Harrison delivered the requests for asylum to an official at the Russian consulate at the Moscow airport on Sunday, according to the website. WikiLeaks says some of the requests have already been delivered to the appropriate embassies.
The WikiLeaks statement said requests were made to China, Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, India and several European countries. Snowden had planned earlier to seek asylum in Ecuador and has requested asylum in Russia.
( Also on POLITICO: 10 things to know about Snowden)
The asylum requests reported by WikiLeaks and the Snowden statement could not be independently authenticated.
Snowden, who has been on the run since releasing sensitive NSA documents, is believed to have been in Moscow airport's transit zone since his arrival from Hong Kong on June 23. The U.S. has annulled his passport, and Ecuador, where he had hoped to get asylum, has been giving mixed signals about offering him shelter.
After Snowden applied for political asylum to remain in Russia, Russian President Vladimir Putin told reporters in Moscow that Snowden would have to stop leaking U.S. secrets if he wanted asylum there — and he added that Snowden seemed unwilling to stop publishing leaks of classified material.
( PHOTOS: 10 famous/infamous whistleblowers)
At the same time, Putin said he had no plans to turn over Snowden to the United States.
The expanded requests for asylum come as the Obama administration contends with European allies angry about the release of documents that alleged U.S. eavesdropping on European Union diplomats.
Obama, in an African news conference with Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete, said the U.S. would provide allies with information about new reports that the NSA had bugged EU offices in Washington, New York and Brussels. But he also suggested such activity by governments would hardly be unusual.
"We should stipulate that every intelligence service —not just ours, but every European intelligence service, every Asian intelligence service, wherever there's an intelligence service — here's one thing that they're going to be doing: They're going to be trying to understand the world better, and what's going on in world capitals around the world," he said. "If that weren't the case, then there'd be no use for an intelligence service."

Woodmen of World flag presentation; Trudy Pickett's Home Solutions column
Woodmen rep presents flag
Lynn Hill, representative with Woodmen of the World Life Insurance Society, presented the United States Flag on April 23 to Commander A. L. Maness of the City of Kinston.
Woodmen of the World is one of the largest presenters of flags in the country and advocates patriotism in America�s communities. It provides U.S. flags to non-profit civic and youth groups, fire stations, schools, churches, community centers and other worthy groups.

Home Solutions: Removing odor from clothing
Thrift store purchases, packed-away seasonal items and clothing exposed to dampness can all carry musty smells, ranging from the stale storage odor to the moldy scent of mildew.
To save these items, follow these steps to remove odors from clothing.
Smells caused by excessive detergent and improper rinsing, or accumulated fabric softener making clothes less absorbent, can be remedied by vinegar or baking soda from a home cabinet.
Add a quarter cup of white vinegar to water in the washing machine and soak the clothes for at least 30 minutes. Drain and wash as usual, or with the vinegar solution. The vinegar smell will dissipate once clothes are dry. Drying clothes in the sun allows ultraviolet rays the chance to kill any mildew or mold.
Another natural solution is to add a cup of baking soda to the water with the clothes, then run a normal cycle.
Use fresh, unscented cat litter to remove musty odors in clothes. Leave the litter in a box or wardrobe with the clothes for a week to dissipate the smell. Baking soda and newspaper work as well.
If mold or mildew have spread and spot treatments on clothing are not successful, use an especially formulated commercial mildewcide and follow manufacturer�s directions.
Sometimes the washing machine itself is responsible for a musty smell in freshly washed clothes. Front-loading washers rarely dry out, providing easy living spaces for mildew.
Clean the machine by running a short, normal cycle without clothes, using hot water and a cup of bleach. Drain the tub. After that, leave the door open occasionally to air the machine. Wipe with bleach if needed.
Sometimes, preventing mildew and musty smells is as simple as keeping clothes dry. Don�t toss them in the hamper wet or damp. Use a towel bar instead of a hook so the towel dries faster. When mold or mildew are spotted, deal with them immediately or they will thrive.
If these steps are not successful with repeated tries, the fabric probably cannot be renewed. Time to toss it!

I overheard a comment a few days ago that a friend made regarding the default layout of Internet Explorer; namely its placing of the address bar inline with tabs. This results in reduced space for tabs, thus reduced title lengths, thus reduced efficiency managing multiple tasks in parallel.
Chrome, on the other hand, places the tabs above the address bar, giving the impression the address bar is part of the tab currently-opened tab. Firefox, and Opera both also place the tabs above the address bar. Every browser appears to write in stone their tab-placement – though Internet Explorer appears to show the most flexibility.
Upon exploring Internet Explorer following my friends comments, I soon found that I could resize the address bar, re-arrange the stop/refresh buttons, drop tabs down onto their own line (or leave them inline), reduce certain toolbars down into command buttons to minimize space-used. Needless to say, I was pretty impressed with just how much flexibility I found in Internet Explorer.
Here are a few arrangements I went through:
As previously mentioned, the above shows the resizing of the address bar, shifting of the stop/refresh buttons from the right over to the left (easier to avoid accidentally clicking the Compatibility View button), dropping tabs onto their own line (you can leave them inline, if that floats your boat), collapsing toolbars like the LastPass one into the command region, and making it inline with the favorites.
Of the four browsers I checked, Chrome appears to be the most rigid. As for customization, you can change the theme, but this is really not much more than swapping out a background image on browser itself. You can't change the address bar width (well, you can resize the add-on bar, which results in a longer/shorter address bar), the placement of the tabs, the locality of the buttons or anything. You can, however, toggle the "Home" button on and off.
Both Firefox and Opera have really impressive options for customizing your toolbars, but that might be a degree of control that few people enjoy. I personally explored it, but didn't find it too appealing. Also in Firefox you can disable tabs until you explicitly request to open a link in a second tab. This too reduces used-space around the "chrome" of the browser.
Opera sports an even more advanced set of options for Tab Bar Placement. While tabs at are traditionally at the top of the content (following their real-world exemplar of manila folders), you can place them on any side of the viewport in Opera. The changes of the layout are pretty drastic, so I apologize for the disorienting effect of the following gif:
My take-away is that Chrome is nice on the eyes, but far too rigid with the layout options. Opera and Firefox go to the other extreme, and drop enough tools in your lap that you'd need an engineer's manual to truly understand the power you've been given. Internet Explorer hits closest to the sweet spot in my sincere opinion. While I wish Internet Explorer had a few features we've come to love in its competition, I am happy with the degree (and limits) of flexibility Microsoft has chosen to provide.

Truck YeahThe trucks are good!
CBS Affiliate WUSA9 reported that a salt spreader tipped over on a Route 28 onramp at 5:46 this morning in Herndon, Virginia. So much for preparing the road for traffic.
Helicopter photos are a bit grainy to decipher the make and model, but the chrome bar across the top of the grille looks Freightliner to me.
Seems the vehicle was carrying too much speed through the ramp, perhaps in hopes of keeping momentum for a smoother highway merge.
Police confirmed that the driver was "okay" but traffic is going to be a mess for some time. Two massive wreckers were sent to set the spreader upright.

What I now have running is the first phase: asynchronous replication, in a master/slave configuration. The way it works is simple. For every slave in the configuration the master PBXT engine starts a thread which reads the transaction log, and transfers modifications to a thread which applies the changes to PBXT tables on the slave.
Where to get it
I have pushed the changes that do this trick to PBXT 2.0 on Launchpad. The branch to try out is lp:pbxt/2.0.
Getting started
Setup of the replication is dead easy. Assuming you already have a PBXT database, what you need to do is the following:
1. Copy the Master data: Shutdown the MySQL server and make a complete copy of the data directory.
2. Setup a Slave server: Setup a second MySQL server using the copy of the data directory.
3. Declare the Slave: Create a text file called slaves, in the data/pbxt directory of the master server, with the following entry:
[slave]slave-process-name is any name you like, and is used to identify the replication thread running on the master. host-name-of-slave is the host name or IP address of the slave MySQL server. 37656 is the default port used by the PBXT slave engine to receive replication changes.
4. Enable replication: On the master server set pbxt_enable_replication=1, and on the slave server set pbxt_enable_replication=2. Also make sure that both servers have different server IDs (system parameter: server_id).
5. Start both servers: Replication will begin immediately if the slave server is started before master server, otherwise replication will begin after a minute (see below).
How it works
PBXT engine level replication, unlike MySQL replication, pushes changes to the slave. For every entry in the data/pbxt/slaves file, PBXT starts a thread (the supplier thread). The thread connects to the slave on the given address, and pushes the changes to an applier thread run by the PBXT engine on the slave side. If any error occurs, the supplier thread on the master will pause, and then try again in a minute.
On connect the supplier thread requests the global transaction ID (GID) of the last transaction committed on the slave. The applier determines the GID of the last transaction by searching backwards through its own transaction logs.
Replication is row-based, and fairly low level. Changes refer to the PBXT internal row and table IDs. The row data is transferred in the same format used to store the information on disk. This makes the replication extremely efficient. The supplier thread does not even have to read the log from disk if it is fairly up-to-date, because PBXT already caches the last changes to the transaction log for use by the writer and the sweeper threads.
Probably the most important thing about this type of replication is that it (theoretically) has almost no affect on the "foreground" activity on the master machine. I am interested to find out if this really is the case.
What's next?
Replication of DDL changes are not implemented yet. So if you do ALTER TABLE or any other such operation, replication will stop, and have to be restarted by copying over the data directory to the slave again.
After DDL changes the next step is to add synchronous replication, as illustrated above. This requires waiting for a commit from the slave before continuing. Latency in this case can be kept to a minimum by sending transactions to the slave before they have been committed on the master.
I believe this would then provide the basis for an extremely simple (and efficient) HA solution based on MySQL.

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Mitsuwa Marketplace Violated Law by Paying Hispanic Workers Less Than Others for Identical Jobs, Federal Agency Charged
NEWARK, N.J. -- Mitsuwa Corporation, which does business as Mitsuwa Marketplace, a large Japanese market in Edgewater, N.J., will pay $250,000 to settle a national origin discrimination lawsuit by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the agency announced today.
According to the EEOC's suit, since 2005, Mitsuwa has routinely paid Hispanic employees less than non-Hispanics doing the same work because of their national origin. The case stemmed from a discrimination charge from an individual employee who complained of being underpaid because he was Hispanic. An investigation by the EEOC revealed that a class of Hispanic employees was discriminated against in this way over several years.
Discrimination in compensation based on employees' national origin violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The EEOC filed suit in U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey in Newark (Civil Action No. 09-CV-04733 [ES][CLW]) after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement through its conciliation process.
Under the consent decree settling the suit, signed by federal Judge Esther Salas, Mitsuwa will also give pay increases to current Hispanic employees amounting to a combined total of approximately $30,000 per year for three years.
Mitsuwa is enjoined from discriminating against Hispanic employees. The consent decree provides for a monitor who will periodically review Mitsuwa's compensation practices and discrimination complaints, and will report to EEOC. Mitsuwa has also revised its anti-discrimination policies and will train its managers and employees on Title VII, including the prohibition against compensation discrimination based on national origin.
"Employers everywhere should know that Title VII insures that they cannot pay employees less based on their national origin, just as they cannot discriminate in compensation based on sex or race," said EEOC District Director Kevin Berry.
"The EEOC stands ready to assist employees who are being undercompensated compared to similarly situated co-workers simply because of their national origin," added New York Regional Attorney Elizabeth Grossman.
Eliminating discriminatory policies affecting vulnerable workers who may be unaware of their rights under equal employment laws, or who may be reluctant or unable to exercise their rights, is a national priority identified in EEOC's Strategic Enforcement Plan. These policies can include disparate pay.
The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the Commission is available at its web site at www.eeoc.gov.

Athletes turned out in force to support former Cubs pitcher Kerry Wood and wife, Sarah, at the second annual Woody's Winter Warm-Up fundraiser at Harry Caray's Tavern at Navy Pier on Jan. 18. More than 400 patrons attended the event that benefits the Wood Family Foundation, an organization dedicated to improving the lives of children throughout Chicagoland.
Past and present players and local media served as bartenders and competed for tips, to the delight of the crowd. Participants included Cubs players David DeJesus, Matt Garza, Starlin Castro, Darwin Barney, Jeff Samardzija and Travis Wood. Manager Dale Sveum, team owner Tom Ricketts and Theo Epstein, president of baseball operations, were also on hand.
The evening was emceed by radio personalities Jane Monzures and Pete McMurray and included musical performances by rhythm and blues singer Gina Venier and rocker Dave Mason. In addition, Chi-Town's Finest Breakers, a team of brothers and sisters, showcased their break-dancing skills.
Sarah and Kerry Wood welcomed guests, thanked the Ricketts family and detailed their charity organization's many accomplishments this year. "We opened the Wood Family Foundation playroom on the oncology floor of Lurie Children's (Hospital); broke ground on Kerry Wood Cubs Field; we held our first weeklong free baseball clinic in Englewood; enjoyed our second annual Warm Wishes Coat & Toy Drive, supplying over 400 coats and toys to Nash Elementary; and within recent weeks have created the Kerry and Sarah Wood Family Foundation Scholarship," Sarah said. "This fall we will be sending a student to UIC on a full-ride scholarship."
The event raised more than $100,000 for the Wood Family Foundation.
