the CLARION Wednesday, November 6, 1963 LETTERS to the Editor:
Student Court Deserves
Senate Consideration
Through recent discussions with an administrative officer
at Hamline university, attention has been drawn to that insti-tution's
student judiciary system. An adaptation of their
court system, which is organized only in the dormitories, has
several good points to recommend itself to this campus.
A student judiciary is a logical institution for a campus
where students are granted a large measure of responsi-bility.
It would place increased emphasis on codes of con-duct
common to all students. Through trial by their school-mates
students could be given warnings without having
such a warning become part of their permanent record.
Appeals of decisions made by the election board, the pub-lications
board and the chartering board could be made to
the student court rather than to the student senate. Although
appeals have not been a major matter on any senate agenda,
such a move would free the senate from this responsibility.
A student court would necessarily be entirely separate
from the senate. In order that responsible members of the
court would be selected it would be best to form the court
through senate appointment. Student judges could be selected
for the duration of their association membership, hopefully
encouraging some carry-over from year to year. There could
be no other constitutional criterion for selection other than
association membership. Not more than five judges should
comprise the court.
Checks and balances could be erected between the sen-ate
and the court. Budget control could be continued under
the jurisdiction of the senate, while interpretation of the
constitution could pass to the student court. Appeals of deci-sions
by either body should be made only to the administra-tion.
Consideration of a student court should be a topic for
the student senate agenda. Even the rough, sketchy plan pre-sented
here holds several knotty problems, most obvious of
them being creation of the court through changes in the pre-sent
constitution. Careful consideration should be made of the
powers granted to the court. Its range of authority must be
explicitly defined at the outset. Bethel has an important area
of student government yet undeveloped.
Many Groups Offer Aid
Two articles offering funds for further education are
found on the front page of this paper. These are two among
several dozen such offers now in the student affairs office.
Lacking sufficient bulletin board space to display them all,
student affairs has made the information available upon re-quest
in its office.
In addition to this, the available grants, prizes, scholar-ships
and loans are being made known to department heads.
Student affairs is considering placing this information on
file in the library. Whenever space permits, the CLARION
will publish information about these aids.
All these efforts are aimed at making students more
aware of available opportunities. Virtually every field of study
has appealing post-graduate study offered with attractive as-sistance.
Such programs might well fit the plans of some cur-rent
Courtesy is Always Proper
A small scolding is in order for those who were distract-ingly
late to the folk-singing concert last Thursday night. Their
noisy entrances during the ably-performed songs demonstrated
lack of thoughtfulness for both the singer and the audience.
The fact that a convocation is held in the college auditorium
does not suspend rules of etiquette. In the future both students
and faculty should plan their arrivals more courteously.
Nik Dag Has No Limits
Dear Editor,
There is a misunderstanding a-bout
the article on Nik Dag in the
Oct. 30 issue of the CLARION.
The problem centers around the
statement: "Nik Dag committee
has suggested a $6 maximum ex-penditure
for the girls."
For the fellows who interpreted
this to mean that the boy has to
pay any costs over $6 I can say
only one thing—forget it. But
more commonly this has been in-terpreted
to mean that the Nik
Dag committee is trying to force
a maximum expenditure on the
girls. This is wrong also.
This statement was directed to
the girl who had heard rumors of
lavish spending in the past and
felt she could not go because of
her financial status. The sum of
$6 was set up as a suggestion of
an adequate amount, not as a mini-mum
or a maximum.
Vern Lewis
Cut-offs Draw Comments
Dear Editor:
The article on the senate's dis-cussion
of the dress code which
appeared in the Oct. 30 edition of
the CLARION was most amusing.
However, to my chagrin, a small
part of the amusement was creat-ed
at my expense.
Mr. Patterson's caustic interpre-tation
and paraphrase of one of
my comments during the session
has misrepresented me and has
alienated me from my cut-off-wearing
To be attested by witnesses, I
present a more authentic version.
During the session, Roger Evans
(my fellow-extremist) commenting
on a lack of dress consciousness
among some students, said that
ideally he would like to see the
dress code abolished and be re-placed
by more student conscious-ness.
A freshman then commented
that the dress code was beneficial
in helping her determine her cam-pus
dress habits. In reference to
the remarks, I stated that "the
majority of students do follow the
dress code, and the dress tone of
the campus is not bad.
"Those that do wear cut-offs and
sweatshirts inappropriately were
exceptions who were fanatically
devoted to their dear cut-offs.

A comprehensive look at the
cultural calendar of events for the
Twin Cities area reveals much
more than an average college stu-dent
can attend or afford. Several
events that will interest the bud-get-
minded student stand out. A-mong
the more outstanding are
the numerous art galleries in the

of paintings from all the

Only legislation would correct
them." I then expressed doubt
whether any action or legislation
is recommendable for the benefit
of only a few exceptions.
The clarifications I have made
will not depreciate the amusing
qualities of Patterson's article.
There is much sophistic satire re-maining
in the article . . . at the
expense of the senate's reputation
as a sensible governing body.
Daniel Martinez
Sorley Vindicates Senate
Dear Editor:
I wish to comment on the arti-cle
headed "Senate Scrutinizes
Cut-offs, Glosses Over Other Is-sues"
by J. David Patterson in the
Oct. 30 issue of the CLARION.
I think the title was inappro-priate.
Granted, it was intended as
an attention-getter, but it exag-gerated
the truth to the point of
becoming dishonest. The senate
did not "scrutinize" cut-offs — it
merely mentioned them along with
many other types of dress.
Neither did the senate "gloss
over other issues." Webster de-fines
to "gloss over" as meaning
to make appear right by spec-ious
argument or by minimiz-ing."
In no sense did the senate
attempt to make book-stealing,
cheating or plagiarism appear
right; it merely did not pursue
these problems at that meeting.
Roger Evans' main emphasis in
his first statement was not that
sportswear is not defined in the
code, but that the present code
says nothing about length or fit
of any kind of clothes, and that
this is where the biggest problem
June Erickson's question, accord-ing
to the minutes, was not "Does
the student senate have the power
to enforce a dress code?", but "Do
we want to enforce it?" At any
rate, the senate does have the
power to penalize dress code vio-lations
if they decide to exercise
it. (Patterson didn't think so.) Her
question was partly answered in
the discussion that followed—not
"quickly dismissed without con-sideration,"
as Patterson claimed.
Evans said that IDEALLY he
would like to see the code

Library Misses Article
Dear Editor,
It's missing!!! Someone must
have taken it; but who (or what)
or where or why?
I'm referring, of course, to the
inside story about that tanned,
French surf enthusiast featured on
the cover of a recent issue of Life
—the story which was neatly torn
from the library's only copy of
that magazine.
Such action suggests the work
of one of two culprits: Either the
act was committed by a maladjust-ed
or frustrated individual, or else
the campus is feeling the heavy
hand of a self-imposed, uninvited
Now, if the latter be the case,
one can only hope that this person
will seek official channels the next
time he makes an attempt to pre-serve
the purity of campus read-ers.
Imagine, if you will, what one
such person might do to one vol-ume
of National Geographic alone!
And, if perchance, the article
was filched by some deprived (or
depraved) student, one can only
wonder at the caliber of a culprit
who would take only the article,
when the cover nearly outsripped
anything else that followed.

Editor's note : A library off i-cial,
confirming this report,
has asked the CLARION to re-mind
students that clippings
taken from periodicals and
pages torn from books not only
inconvenience library patrons
and involve high replacement
costs for the school, but they
also destroy the reference value

Two Religious Plays
Offer DifferentViews
by Dan Martinez
During the last two weeks, two
religious plays have been pre-sented
to Bethel audiences. The
Royal players performed a cutting
of Dear Wormwood, James For-syth's
misadaptation of C. S. Lewis'
Screwtape Letters. Last Friday
Theater On-the-road performed A
Sleep of Prisoners by English play-wright
Christopher Fry.
While reading Screwtape Letters
we are aware of a desperate strug-gle
between "our Father below"
and "the Enemy above," and the
crises of people in their moments
of decision.
However, during the perform-ance
of DEAR WORMWOOD we
were aware only of the subtlety,
sensibility And idiosyncracies of
the contemporary fiend and the
stereotyped, undramatic tone of
the humans involved. Reflections
on the play produces nostalgia
for the spiritual impact of
SCREWTAPE LETTERS and a
chuckle or two over that crazy-mixed-
up fiend and his domin-eering
In A Sleep of Prisoners, Fry re-designed
tthe biblical stories of
Adam and his sons; David and
Absalom; Abraham and Isaac; and
Shadrac, Meshac and Abednego.
They are drawn together in a con-temporary
psychological plot in
which the values of good and evil;
love and strife; honesty and self-deception
are presented in dreams
as the living issues in the sleeping
lives of men.
vival of the style of the medieval
morality plays in which all facets
of daily living are presented. Me-dieval
audiences reconciled the ri-diculous
with the sublime, the
comic with the tragic, and the
secular with the spiritual.
However, the modern audience
has not made this synthesis. To
our audiences, the ridiculous,
comic and secular have a conno-tation
antithetical to the sublime,
tragic and spiritual. Very few mo-dern
morality plays achieve their
intended spiritual goals.
In his play, Fry employed the
psychological plot, an excellent
means for the modern audience
and for the contemporary church
militant. The psychological plot
stretches beneath the superfic-ialities
of violent cursing or a
pub drinking scene.
In our evangelical orthodox con-text
we cannot be completely sat-isfied
with either of the plays, al-though
Fry exposed more truth in
a more effective manner. The re-sult

Wednesday, November 6, 1963
by John Halvorsen
You've all seen him gallavant-ing
around campus, on the basket-ball
court, or down the intramural
football field. He drives a 1962
Buick Skylark. To most of us he's
known either as Dr. Wessel's nep-hew
, the fellow that goes with Teri
Mounce or that $70,000 "bonus
baby" with the St. Louis Cardinals.
It is only logical to begin an in-troduction
at home. "Well," he
drawls, "I'm from Anaheim, Calif.,
thirty miles south of Los Angeles,
right next door to Disneyland."
Next logical question to pose
to a major league baseball play-er
would be, "How did you get
started in this game?" Clint is a
product of boys' league baseball.
He started at the age of eleven,
and his amateur status culmin-ated
with his best years on the
Anaheim high school team and
with the American legion sys-tem.
All through his baseball exper-ience,
Clint has been a pitcher.
At seventeen he was signed by the
St. Louis Cardinals of the National
league for $70,000.
That was four years ago. In the
years intervening, Clint has pitch-ed
for Tulsa, Okla., of the Texas
league and Portland, Ore., of the
Pacific Coast league. He has been
hampered in his career by a bad
arm. But even with this setback
he has compiled an even 32-32 won-lost
Clint shares the dream and de-sire
of every minor leaguer—to
some day make it in the big
leagues. He recalls his biggest
thrill as being able to pitch a-the

and Joey Jay, realizing that he
had the ability to put the ball
past major leaguers.
He's up for the draft this year,
which means that on Friday and

in the major leagues can take him.
Just where will he end up in Feb-ruary
when he leaves Bethel for
spring training? That remains to
be seen. Clint hopes he'll end up
with St. Louis. He would really
like another chance to make it
with the Cardinals.
However, no matter where he
plays, he'll never forget what Stan
Musial told him. "There's only one
place to play, Clint, and that's in
the majors."
Where will circumstances find
Clint after his baseball career
has ended? The answer to this
question answers in part the
reason why Clint came to Bethel.
Clint came not knowing exactly
what the Lord had planned for
his life, but earnestly seeking
His leading.
Clint accepted Christ at the age
of eleven, and for him this was a
positive experience in his life. It
was so positive that when he was
asked when he replied, "It was
June 7, 1953—I'll never forget that
day as long as I live."
Clint's at Bethel now, but he'll
be leaving in February. Will he
return? Another positive yes. Why?
First of all, "Bethel is a place
where one can meet God and be
responsive to His leading." Sec-ondly,
"Here you can really feel
down-and-out, but there's always
someone there to smile."

I don't particularly envy newly appointed wrestling coach Dean
Gilland in his first year at Bethel. He is faced with the responsibility
of building a squad almost from scratch. Roger Gronau is the only re-turning
letterman from last year's team. Not especially encouraging is
the fact that many of the men have only a minimum of experience or
none at all.
There is a brighter side, however. The number of team members
so far totals 15, the largest number of men to report out in Bethel's
three year wrestling history.
Potential grapplers include Dennis Blomgren, Keith Davis, John
Dickau, Ron Harris, Norman Holmberg, Curt Johnson, Doug King, LeRoy
Nelson, Dave Norman, Jerry Olson, J. David Patterson, Wendell Plucker,
Bob Sundquist and Everette Wilkinson.
I was impressed, as I'm sure everyone was, with the appearance
of Hubert the nameless lion at the homecoming game. My fears and
anxieties were relieved when I saw that Hubert wasn't the cheap, sleezy
lion that I had pictured in my head before the game. Hubert definitely
has class, but still no name.
While I'm on the subject of homecoming, I would like to say a
couple of words about a subject which is near and dear to the hearts
of us all . . . audience response (which is a nice, non-offending name
for school spirit). One word will do nicely. Sick! The team deserved
much more than we gave them.
Don't get all broken up about it. You will have one more chance,
come Saturday, to show the football team that you're impressed with
their play. Come to the game Saturday and make loud noises. I dare you.

Bethel rolled to its third straight
victory Friday night 47-12 over
Wahpeton School of Science. The
offensive total of 47 points estab-lishes
a new school scoring re-cord.
The old record (46) was set
earlier this year against Morris.
The offensive splurge was match-ed
by an equally effective defense
which allowed only nine yards
rushing and two first downs the
entire game.
Jim Nelson opened the scoring
on a one-yard plunge early in the
first period. Nelson scored again
later in the quarter on a two-yard
plunge for his fifth touch-down
in his last five quarters of
action. Don Land ran the extra
point and Bethel led 13-0 at the
end of the first quarter.
Bethel scored twice more in
the second quarter before Wah-peton
was able to tally. Strickler
hit Duane Gibson on a 37-yard
pass play for the first one. Min-utes
later Don Land added three
more yards to his 118 yard total
and scored again.
Before the half ended Wahpe-ton
scored their two touchdowns.
The first came on a short plunge,
and the second on a 70 yard pass
play. Neither kick was good and
Wahpeton was done scoring for
the game. The score at the half
was Bethel 27, Wahpeton 12.
Royals came out hard in the
second half with Land scoring
from six yards out. Land also add-ed
the point on a run. Later in
the period fullback Stan Miller
tore through the line for 31 yards
and another score. Don Strickler
kicked the point after touchdown.
Bethel added the final touch
to its masterpiece with a long
drive and score in the final per-iod.
Strickler scored the touch-down
on a keeper from four
yards out. Vince Bloom's try for
the point just missed.
Total offense for the Royal's was
507 yards and 25 first downs. Wah-peton
was able to muster only 80
yards total, 70 of that on one
touchdown play. To date, Bethel's
offense has rolled up 210 points in
seven games and the defense has
allowed opponents 80.

Four runners broke Bethel's
Como park course record as Mac-alester
scored a 19-36 victory over
the Royals last Saturday. The for-mer
record of 18:48 was set by
Winona State's Tom Gale Oct. 5.
Stanbury or iviacaiester finished
first as he circled the course in
18:40. Smith and Gibas, Macales-ter's
second and third runners, fol-lowed
Stanbury with times of 18:44
and 18:45 respectively.
Dale Rogers, Bethel's first fin-isher,
captured fourth place one
second behind Gibas. Rogers took
the lead at the start of the race
and held it for the first three laps
but was edged by the three Mac-alester
runners at the finish.
Roger's 18:46 not only broke the
course record by 2 seconds but
broke his former Bethel record of
19:20 by 34 seconds. This was the
fourth home meet in a row that
Roger has either tied or set a new
Dale Pearson cut 31 seconds off
his previous course time to finish
fifth with a time of 19:23. Ogle
and King of Macalester captured
sixth and seventh places with times
of 19:44 and 19:57.
Ken Haniwalt sprinted the last
100 yards but was unable to catch
Macalester's King and finished
eighth in 19:58. Bill Carlson, Rich
Halbeck and Riley Combs captur-ed
ninth, tenth and eleventh places
Thompson of Macalester finished
twelfth with a time of 21:33. Gus-tafson,
an unattached runner from
Macalester circled the course in
18:54, which would have placed
him fifth.
Next week the Royals will par-ticipate
in the Northwest Open
number two. The race, sponsored
by the University of Minnesota,
will be run next Saturday at 11
a.m. around Lake Nokomis.
Last year's Northwest Open in-cluded
such schools as Carleton,
Macalester, Gustavus, River Falls
and the University freshmen. Fu-ture
meets for the Royal harriers
include the Amateur Athletic Un-ion
(AAU) six-mile race on Nov.
14 and the National Association of
Intercollegiate Athletics' (NAIA)
championship in Omaha on Nov.

Saturday the Jesters handed the
Seminary their first defeat of the
season 27-0. The game was close
during the first half, and the score
was only 6-0 at halftime. But
tough defense and a good offense
were too much for the seminar-ians.
Jim Austin, Dave Buck, Bruce
Erickson and Gene Peterson scor-ed
for the Jesters. Clint Stark and
Dave Sprague were the defensive
standouts. The win clinched at
least a tie for the championship
for the Jesters, who have only one
more game to play.
In other games Saturday, the
Dukes beat the Barons 21-12 and
the Peasants whalloped the Counts
46-0. For the Dukes, the closest
game of the day, Jim Friberg
scored twice on runs and Ken
Headlee scored on a pass from
Operating without the services
of quarterback Bob Beckstrom, the
Counts could not make their of-fense
move. The Peasants turned
several interceptions into touch-downs
as Denny Port led the way.
He passed for three tallies and
ran an interception back for an-other.
In the only other game of the
day, the Squires bowed to the
Knights by forfeit.
Intramural football action ends
next Saturday. A short break pre-cedes
the intramural basketball
season. Also on the intramural
agenda is a mixed doubles badmin-ton
tournament. Fellows from the
various teams select a girl to com-pete
with them in the tournament.

Randy Orton's career has had its share of ups and downs. Many times, it seemed that the Viper was on the verge of great things, only to have his momentum cooled, be it by injury or backstage politics, and it seems like he has only finally hit his stride in the past year, becoming arguably the most popular guy on the roster. His WrestleMania record may seem reflective of the inconsistencies of his career path, with an overall record of 3-4 heading into his match against CM Punk.
Orton debuted at WrestleMania 20, during his tenure with Evolution, teaming with Ric Flair and Batista against The Rock and Sock Connection in a Handicap match. This was a really fun match, and while it looked like Mick Foley was going to put Orton away with Mr. Socko, Orton's "Legend Killer" nickname proved accurate, as he put down Foley with an RKO to get the pin, to the disappointment of the raucous crowd. Record: 1-0.
By WrestleMania 21, Orton had been kicked out of Evolution, and looking to prove himself on the singles front, he decided to challenge The Undertaker to a match, vowing to end The Streak. Despite putting on a good effort, he wasn't able to get the job done, even with the help of his father, Hall of Famer, Cowboy Bob Orton, and was put down with a Tombstone. Record: 1-1.
Orton's match at WM 22 was probably his best one to date, which isn't surprising, given that his opponents in this three-way match were Rey Mysterio and then World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle. The three worked really well together, with some good interplay between all three. After being on the wrong end of a series of finishing moves, Orton was pinned by Mysterio. Record: 1-2.
Leading up to Mania 23, Orton had been alternately teaming and feuding with Edge. Instead of logically putting them in a match, it was decided the two of them would be entered into that year's Money in the Bank match. Edge was taken out of the match early with an injury, and Orton didn't really play a significant role in the balance of the match, which saw Mr. Kennedy grab the briefcase for the win. Record: 1-3.
His and HHH's paths would cross again the following year, at WM 25, this time in singles action. This one was expected to be an intense fight, as the buildup saw Orton and his Legacy cohorts (Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase) beat up all of the members of the McMahon family (acknowledged as Triple H's in-laws) in the weeks leading up to the event. The match didn't quite live up to the expectation, especially following the epic match between Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker, and when Orton lost, it was to a tepid reaction. Record: 2-4.
In the past year, Orton has emerged as one of the most popular wrestlers in the company, despite actions that would generally be used by a villain (like kicking a downed opponent in the head). Meanwhile, his WrestleMania opponent, CM Punk, has become one of the most despised, even though his lifestyle choices would generally be considered as being honourable. Like Orton's career, and his past WrestleMania results, the inconsistencies in that aren't necessarily surprising.

How does Prince William make himself king- the only qualification he needs is to be alive when the previous monarch dies and he has control over neither.
Student or Learner
I read a thread about this already, and it was closed after 4 posts as the poster felt the answer was satisfactory. I would like to point out that in fact the answer was the reverse of the actual meanings.
Although the words are used interchangeably all the time, there is a definite difference.
Fate is a religious term (or spiritual, not necessarily organized and defined by any church) and means that an event or person is a prisoner to it, everything is predetermined. If you have a particular fate, nothing can change it, everything you do is part of that fate. Even if you find out about that fate (which you cannot), that itself was in your fate. It is unchangeable, the opposite of free will.
Destiny on the other hand is something that one makes for myself, or declares to oneself once achieving some goal. For example, one can say "I'm destined to become the best fighter in the world", and then work on it to make it so, destiny has far more in common with a goal than fate. Once the person becomes a great fighter, he/she would say, "I was destined to be the best, nothing could stop me". That being said, if such a thing as fate existed, and this same person was fated to become the best fighter in the world, it would happen no matter what actions the person takes, but these actions are ultimately predetermined already in order to make the end event happen, this person may never think about fighting but find himself being the best after 10 years of cause and effect (which is also the case in destiny, but no predetermined).
Fate is like luck, it doesn't exist, but it makes people feel better about certain things. Like if you drink and drive and have an accident and kill your friend yet you survive, you could console or destroy yourself by saying it was fate, some deity or powerful entity controls events and this was supposed to happen, and from that you can either pick yourself up and redeem yourself or go into self destructive behaviour, but either way you're subject to fate if that is what you believe, no matter if it exists or not. But you would never say it was destiny in order to feel better, you may say that because you drink and drive and know that eventually this was going to happen, so you were destined to get in an accident. You create your destiny, fate is something that is only meaningful to those who believe in such things.
Another example is Prince William, he is destined to become King due to his bloodline and because he's young and second in line, but this may not happen, and if it doesn't due to some tragedy, many people may say "it was fate" for obvious reasons.
In simple terms, fate is a belief system that we're puppets to a grand plan and design and have no free will, and destiny is a personal or group journey, and is changed to suite whatever purpose whenever it needs to be.
Most religions have both free will and fate intertwined in their sacred texts, but the paradox is fine, even the universe itself has this paradox. As an astrophysicist, it is still an incredible thing that this paradox is very real, everything that happens is due to very specific variables and is predetermined, but at the same time even the most tiny of particles can escape this rule via quantum events, let alone conscious life forms like ourselves (we are also subject to quantum effects, however small and un-noticed), so we live in both an universe of fate and free will, and they are indeed the same thing (however this is not a religious concept, but rather a scientific one, so perhaps a better term than "fate" is needed)
How does Prince William make himself king- the only qualification he needs is to be alive when the previous monarch dies and he has control over neither.
Sorry if you misunderstood and took my message to mean that destiny is made, not at all, it is just one part of it, destiny is not written in stone, that is all that I meant, it is either something that you set for yourself and call it that and work hard for it, and if achievement happens, you call it destiny. For example, look at tennis/hockey players vs football/basketball players (not all of course, just a higher percentage in each).
The former, like Gretzky or Djokovic may say they were destined to become the greatest because of their parents, practice, genes, hard work, the times, the people around them etc. Novak's father may have said to him "You're fated to be the greatest" due to his strong religious conviction but Novak would be quick to correct and say "I was destined to be the greatest", as it was easy to see he had incredible talent, and it would only take practice and the right people to make it so from the very early age. Same could be said of Gretzky who thanks everyone for his destiny, but not any deity (even if he does believe in any)
The latter usually use fate, God did it all for them, there was no chance for anyone else, no choice in the matter, they are the greatest because fate deemed it so, God decided it was to be. Boxers are usually like this as well, training and coaches and constant sweating didn't do it, it was God's will.
That is the basic difference between the two. Why an athlete would thank a deity before coaches, friends, family, hard work etc. is beyond me, sometimes omitting everything but the deities, I find it repulsive, but I don't judge, they were DESTINED to be like that due to their upbringing, always told that every success is due to a deities pleasure and failure due to a punishment. When instilled with some ideas at a young age, and also being impressionable at the same time, it is almost impossible for an average person to overcome this.
That is also why atheists don't have a problem with the word "destiny", whereas they would never use "fate".
An example..
I know what human destiny is, what our future destiny is, what posterity will experience, but that doesn't mean it will happen. Forty years ago nobody would doubt this destiny, at least not those who understand our place in the universe and also understand that we're both incredibly tiny/insignificant and splendid/unique/incredible at the same time, as individuals more-so than as a species, which could account for the stall in our advancement. Since the 60s we haven't invented anything, only improved on things and made them smaller, everything that we have today is from the 50s and 60s, albeit small and efficient etc. But new? Like the transistor was new, or laser, or plasma, or LCD, or MRI, etc. etc., all very old inventions improved. I challenge you to give me a real invention after, say, 1975, and a new fruit juicer doesn't count, lol.
However, today hardly anyone would agree with it, this destiny, as they see what is happening in the world and how it has changed, how it's degenerating into a two class global society with no republican principals (don't mistake this with the U.S. party of the same name, I mean the "republic" as a means of government), but corporatism (aka fascism) principles instead, with government and huge corporations coming together and ruling the masses. Eventually this will be overthrown, but since scientific advancement has stalled, will it be overthrown before it's too late? Will it take thousands of years in which time a supervulcano or meteor could wipe us out because we did not invest our energy and resources in science?
This is an example, but also a topic in itself.
The destiny I'm speaking of is similar to that of all freethinkers, scientists, intellectuals and pretty much any knowledgeable person (not judging, if your knowledge is limited, how can you form such an opinion, it's just a fact). First space and the solar system, then going to the stars, surviving Earth's periodic cataclysmic events and evolving, on different outposts/worlds, each posterity different, eventually biologically and technologically to the point that humanity will split into several different species altogether, this is inevitable to the point of "fate" if our destiny comes to fruition. The first of these already started, but was stalled completely, and now stopped, we have not even gone past our atmosphere since the 70s, and robots have gone only as far as a few million km. If we continued at the pace of the 60s, we would survive a meteor strike today already, and be able to rebuild, but we can no longer do that now.
If not, well, we've only been on Earth for a blink of an eye, most species in the past survived longer but did not survive indefinitely, and this will happen to us if we do not pursue this destiny. Dinosaurs ruled 100x longer than we have been around, if you count when we were still proto-human, barely resembling our current selves, a million and a half years before we were even cavemen. If you count the way we are now, than dinosaurs were here 1000x longer, and they were all gone in a blink of an eye. We have a chance to realize this destiny, the only destiny that makes any sense, the actual purpose of life besides eating, sleeping and reproducing, in other words, surviving ad infinitum, and the only way that can happen is via controlling our environment first, and spreading out second (don't worry, even if you think we're a plague on the Earth, our spread can hardly be counted as anything but a drop of water in the Pacific, even after thousands or millions of years we would hardly encounter or settle even 0.00000000000001% of the available resources in our galaxy alone, let alone the universe, lol).
Sorry, I'm an astrophysicist, and it's also a passion, that is why I used this example, but history and politics and current affairs and the new world order are also passions of mine, in other words, knowledge is a passion of mine, so don't alarm yourself, I know nobody will read this anyway, people don't have the attention span to get to this last sentence.
With your idea that we are slowing down from the sixties, that is one way of looking at it, but there are other ways- one of the greatest generators, if not the greatest, of economic growth in developing countries has been the mobile phone, which has enabled rural areas in developing countries to tap into new technologies. This may not be as sexy as flying to the moon, but is of great importance.
PS, please go easy on the political elements, as we don't allow political discussions as they often end up in rows. Thanks.
Yes, that is exactly my point. We have made the old technology so useful and mobile that we're slaves to it, cell phones are based on the same technology from the 60s, even the brand new screens are from that era, just now they are mass produced and affordable. Yes, they have changed the world, but I'm talking invention. Where is the replacement for the transistor? Like perhaps a organically (carbon) based chip. Where are self replicating nano robots with their own intellect for medicine? Even that is based on 60s tech but at least it would be a worthy invention. Why do you think the single core speed of chips was replaced by multi-core? Because no matter what, you cannot get a Terahertz out of a single core, but you can via multithreading and 200 5GHz cores. SSD? Again, even older than plasma. Ask people how old they think plasma tv tech is, most will say 10 years, yet it's over 50 years old, and was even used for the same purpose, albeit only as prototypes. Liquid Crystals? 60s. Lasers? same. Remote controls IR and RF, same. Wireless anything, same. They even had wireless power like I will explain via Tesla patents, but of course they burried that, the oil industry must thrive, the military industrial complex is more important, fighting over resources is more important than having enough resources for everyone. It's not enough to have everything, you must have more than the other guy, that is the philosophy today.
Most people think the last 50 years was the greatest leap forward, but in fact there is no leap at all. If I had to use a 100 year period which represents the greatest leap, I would say 1870-1970, everything that happened, happened in that 100 years, you could start earlier then 1870, but after 1970? DNA perhaps, but that was only due to lack of a poweful enough microscope which was already 50 years old then, and they already knew about it through theory.
There is a perfectly good explanation for this however. The transistor of course. To this day there is no proof of how exactly it was "discovered". When it was released, they said they've worked on it for years, but no data was given. When asked about the inventor, he could not explain how it works, what makes it so incredible, only what it does. What did Einstein say about it? He said the transistor is a leap like going from bows and arrows to fully automatic machine guns in one day, he called it technology that should theoretically be at least 100 years in the future (from then). We went from all mechanical, tubes etc, to the transistor in a heart-beat, and ever since then, all has been based on this. So perhaps we really aren't capable of it's replacement, since we're still figuring out all it's uses. Bell Labs says they created it, but will not release how, they won't release who, have no paperwork, there was no word about it until it was unveiled, and when it was, they didn't have a clue yet what it could be used for, they just said it was going to change the world, but they are still figuring it out. So they invent something they don't know the purpose of? Hmm.
What good is miniaturization if it's only used to continue the status quo, to keep people in check. I mean people have far less free time today, far more stress, yet this technology was supposed to free us from the cycle of sleep,eat,reproduce and make us free to pursue our passions. But even great minds cannot do this, as they are too busy lobbying or worried about their next pay, so they work on putting more transistors on a die, rather than working on new research.
I mean, think about it, we still cut people open for simple operations in hospitals, people still die due to simple complications.
Watch any science documentary from the 50s or 60s and hear the opinions of great minds. What were they expecting by the year 2000? Yes, they may be amazed at video calling and the capabilities of smart phones, but what they would notice most is that nothing changed except that people work more, have no time for any happiness, family, have constant stress, are drugged as a daily helper by various prescription drugs, and the best of the best work for the military or are clamped down. I read scientific journals, there are ideas about controlled fusion, there are ideas about ion drives and long range space exploration, there are plenty of ideas to make the world not only a better place, but an easy place to live, a happy place. The great minds of the 60s, the dreamers and scientists and philosophers, they would be disgusted. Don't even mention Orwel, he would marvel how wrong he got it, the situation is far worse than he ever imagined in his book 1984. His greatest prediction was about friends and enemies and the public reaction to each. An enemy yesterday is deemed a friend today, and the public is told "They were always our friend" and they forget. A friend yesterday deemed an enemy today, similarily, has "always" been an enemy, history is changed to suit the needs of big brother.
Ask yourself why out of the over 800 patents that Nicola Tesla (one of the top 5 minds of all time) has, only 20% are public and the rest locked in some vault under some mountain, perhaps not even worked on? Explain how it is that he showed us how to use either the Earth or the atmosphere (energy is everywhere, each cubic centimeter in the atmosphere itself has enough energy to power everything in your home) as an unlimited power source, but we still burn coal and oil polluting our air.
Explain why we have forgotten about real environmental issues like pollution, waste, toxicity, and why the powerful have hijacked the environmental movement to worry about an issue which, even if true (which it isn't), we couldn't do anything about anyway? I cannot call myself an environmentalist today because people will misunderstand and think I'm talking about global warming or CO2. So real environmentalists either have to take the word back, or create a new one. The purpose of the hijack was not only money to be made from various greenhouse taxes, eventually a tax on breathing, but also to take peoples mind off real issues like I mentioned above. Ah, forget about that oil spill, its global warming we have to worry about, who cares if an entire eco-system was destroyed, the company tried it's best. Ah, forget that 40,000 people die in NY state alone yearly due to air pollution, from sulphurs and mercury in food products, babies aborted due to the same, it's global warming that's the problem (when in fact it's the solution to all humanities problems, I hope with all my heart the globe warms considerably, the alternative is too terrible to contiplate at all)
Einstein, Tesla, Faraday, Maxwell, these people would shutter at the thought that money rules all, their work meant more to them than anything, and as long as they had backing and enough for research, they were happy. So, ask yourself, are there no more people like this? Of course there are, but why are they working for cell phone companies and google? It's not the money, genius usually doesn't care much about that, work is far more important, so ask yourself what could make them drop their dreams and work in a dead-end great-paying job making smaller chips for a faster cell phone? What is stopping them from making Tesla's free energy available now?
Why are people like Ed Witten not in the paper every day? Why does nobody know this person, a mind so great that he makes Einstein look like a highschool mathematician. Why are people more interested in the latest gossip than great achievements? Is it coincidence? We're the same people that only 50 years ago read the paper daily with great awe for any new scientific news, now there isn't even a science section in any local or national newspaper anywhere. Coincidence again?
More in next message, it won't let me post..
Part two
Did you watch tv on the morning of 9/11/2012? This is the answer to the above. People with knowledge and understanding are so few that they can be drowned out. I knew as I was watching what was happening, a great American action production (albeit with major flaws, they should have gotten a Hollywood pro), all with heroes and villains and explosions and panic and a great music score and the president and mayor to the rescue, one coordinating, the other on the ground with the civilians, interviews with perfect answers (I'll never forget the guy on Fox being interviewed saying what happened and saying he was at ground zero, and while you see people running behind him all covered in dust, he is clean like he just climbed out of the shower, dressed in suit and tie, and forgetting to take his media badge off, turns out he worked for Fox). He had all the answers, even the "they hate us for our freedom", he knew it was a terror attack but the CIA did not, lol. A guy on the street. This person was never seen again for any interview, he denies all invitations (he needs to answer how is it that he told us the hypothesis of the collapse hours before it was told to us by "experts", even though no building in history has ever collapsed in any fashion, let alone in its own footprint, due to fire, even though he apparently knew the buildings were built to withstand 20 Jumbojets crashing into it at the same time, even though only a few weeks before a huge highrise burned for weeks in Brazil, the whole thing, not just a few floors, an inferno so insane that they gave up all attempts to put it out, and it's still standing today. That building was full of chemicals and offices with all combustibles, explaining why it burned completely, but it never even came close to any sort of a collapse, and on the news that night the person explained that high-rises cannot collapse due to fire, ever, simply because no fire short of carefully prepared ultra-hot fire using exotic chemicals can weaken re-enforced steel/concrete to such an extent that collapse would happen, but even that takes a long time and the collapse is completely uneven. Not to mention us being told about the fuel and how hot it was, even though we all saw the explosion and the fireball that went outside the building, never coming near the centre columns. Nevermind that as we were told about the incredible heat, we were watching people waving from the burned impact, with black smoke. How is that, were those super humans? Supermen maybe, a lot of them, and they flew too! We got to see that too, and at least that was in real time, not slow motion.
And he even Whatever happened to Hurricane Erin? For three days the news was all about how NYers should prepare for a disaster due to Hurricane Erin coming up the coast, but no mention of it on the morning of 9/11, and most people forgot all about it. But like I said, an educated thinking person could have seen some truth right away just by watching the broadcasts, and come to a simple conclusion just a few hours later, either with the incredible speed with which the 18 evildoers showed up on our screens (on the same day), or just by taking the 5 live feeds (5 channels broadcasted that day) and compare them to each other. But how many people bothered? Why would they, since nothing seemed wrong to them while watching the "live" feed on one of the channels and listening to repeated words over and over and over.
Why am I writing this? Only to show the purpose behind the stall of our destiny, the change of it from what people dreamed about in the 20th century, full of hope and excitement and exploration, to what people do today, just get information and process it, not filtering it at all, not getting any knowledge, no understanding, just useless information and reports carefully prepared for them. Destiny of humanity is on its way to being changed, but lets not let it.
Does anyone dream anymore? The only hope I have now is the rest of the world, Russia and China and India specifically. The west is lost, we're doomed unless we take back the republic, but unfortunately I fear revolution is the only way, who knows how much of the army will fire on their own civilians. If they refuse, we win, if they do it, we're truly lost. We should have impeached Obama after 1 year, Bush after 1 year. Bush was the worst president ever, and I couldn't imagine anything that could come close, until Obama came along, man, this guy makes Bush look almost good, both morally and presidentially. Obama is insane, it's that simple, and I mean that in medical terms, he is truly insane and a true sociopath, to draw a parallel, he's not quite Caligula, but he's Nero to a tea, and may even style himself after Nero. You could see the unease in Bush as 9/11 was happening. Foreknowledge or not, he was not happy with the situation, but presidents are puppets as we all know, and he had his part to play, but if it was Obama in his shoes, I can almost see a smirk on his face, like he loves it, wants more of it, insane. The point of course is the destruction of America, the last beacon of liberty in the world (albeit very little remains, but as long as we do not let them destroy the constitution, there is hope). Bush and the neo-cons plan was to distabalize the middle east and take over, but the people behind Obama are the other elite group, the one that wants to start a war between Russia and China, through Israel, a nuclear war. Bush and his team, his handlers, his puppet masters, never had that in mind. Mr Zbigniew Brzezinski, the puppet master of Obama, has only total destruction of all nation states in mind, and Obama is the perfect man to make it go into full new world order and globalization, one world government mode. He peddles to all sides, makes promises, and agitates enemies and friends of America all the same. To build something new, you must first destroy it, especially the powerful nation states such as America, Russia, China, Japan, Germany and India. None of these countries can be destroyed even if the whole world went against them, but if you pit them against each other, well... The USA is Obamas number one enemy, he hates this country with a passion, but the rest I listed are not far behind.
The world can be easily fixed, in a heart beat. All that needs to be done is simply two things. One, return to the American Credit System as far as currency is concerned, in other words, real economy, not a fake one like we have today where money is created through debt, and private banks can give you money out of thin air and then demand interest, lol, what a great ploy. The rest of the world would quickly follow and abandon the British Empire Monetary System which rules 99% of the world today (any country who has tried the American system has prospered immediately, but just as immediately was deemed a terror state and destroyed, ie. Iraq. Iran is a holdout still, but how long, I hope for ever). Two, return to the founding fathers libertarian way of governing, respecting the constitution to it's fullest, and implement laissez faire capitalism as defined in the constitution. And perhaps three, immediately revoke the right of a corporation to be a person. This is another way we were fooled. People wanted to sue, but a corporations couldn't be sued and too many people were present, so who to sue if you were burned or whatever in a chain restaurant. Corporations have been trying at that point to get personhood status for ever, and this was perfect. The fought against it, pretended it was horrible, it would destroy them if they were deemed a person, so of course it happened. Sometimes I really think people get what they deserve, and if slavery is what they want, they deserve it. So, now that a corporation is a person, all kinds of doors opened. Before, if you wanted a loan, you went to the bank and said you want it for something in your company, and you put your assets etc as collateral, one person. Now, the whole corporation, everything it ownes, all people in it, is one entity, legally a person, meaning there is absolutely no limit to it's power. No loan rejected, no proposal rejected, they got what they wanted. This is the exact opposite of capitalism, it is corporatism, or fascism, whichever term you prefer, and it is the system which we live under, and we must overthrow it. The elite pulled the same trick many times, making hemp illegal, or more importantly, the Federal Reserve Act, again they acted as if it's going to destroy them, fought against it publicly, all the while they are the ones who wrote it, in its entirety. Naturally, it was also accepted as the people thought if the bankers don't like it, it must be good. Oh the sheeple, when will you awaken. America the great has to return (and I'm a Canadian!). Where is the America that kids from other countries dreamed about just 30 years ago? Yes, it was already completely corrupt then, but at least not in the open, it was all under cover, now the power behind the curtain is so confident it doesn't even care what the public knows, they know the public has no attention span.
Again, I overextended myself, sorry about that.
Look up the definition of conspiracy if you don't know or if you think it has negative connotations. Conspiracy is simply more than one person conspiring to make something happen, it doesn't even have to be bad, or untrue. So, think of a conspiracy theorist not like the media does, but simply as a truth seeker, a person who wants to get to the bottom of something using facts rather than believing the media simply because it's reported. I think you know why I included this paragraph at the end.
What's wrong with this site, I had part one posted, under 10000 characters, and now it's gone, part 2 is not going to make sense without part one, part one was all about your post.. Oh well, I give up.
Basically, I talked about technology, how people changed over time, by design, it had nothing to do with politics or economics, the second part was meant as a sort of fix-it and explanation. Argh. WTF!

The Labor Department on Friday announced a $27.8 million National Emergency Grant to counties in New York state suffering damage from Superstorm Sandy. The funds, which will be disbursed in two phases, will help local authorities with cleanup and recovery of public lands and infrastructure, with more available later as needs are demonstrated.
"Our thoughts and prayers go out to the millions of New York residents affected by the storm," Labor Secretary Hilda Solis said. "This Labor Department funding is one part of the federal government's collaborative efforts to offer immediate emergency assistance as the long process of cleanup and rebuilding begins."
Channeled through the New York State Labor Department, the emergency grant comes from the secretary's discretionary fund and awards are based on preset criteria.
Meanwhile, on Sunday the Federal Emergency Management Agency announced that more than 182,000 individuals in Connecticut, New York and New Jersey have registered for FEMA assistance and more than $158 million has been approved.

Tmurphy necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 168 diseños de 45 diseñadores freelance.
Murphy & Company
Murphy & Company is a young, dynamic, boutique business law firm located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The primary practice areas of the firm are intellectual property and finance.
The target audience for the firm are corporate executives, small business owners and artists.
The firm requires a logo which it will use on its stationary, marketing materials and website.
The logo should be simple, modern and highly professional. The main challenge for designers will be to strike a balance between the modern elements of a new, tech savvy legal boutique and the traditional elements of a highly professional business/legal image.
Regarding colours, Murphy & Company would like to use a two colour design in the logo (possibly also including, in addition, white and/or black) which, from a colour perspective, would be complemetary to the attached photo of a wall mural from the lobby of the office tower in which the firm is located. Please note that this does not mean that the logo itself should be in a mural format. In particular, please note the aquamarine blue and tope/brown/dark grey shades of the mural. However, designers are also invited to use a complementary two colour design.
Designers are also invited to include the URL of the website in the logo (www.murphyandcompany.ca); however, this is not mandatory.
Designers are requested not to utilize any images of the "scales of justice", gavels, law books or other legal clichés.

OpenSesame necesitaba un nuevo diseño de banner publicitario y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 70 diseños de 20 diseñadores freelance.
OpenSesame (http://www.OpenSesame.com) is an online marketplace that makes purchasing an elearning course as easy as downloading a song from iTunes.
OpenSesame allows elearning consumers to research, evaluate and purchase online courses from a diverse set of publishers in a single location. OpenSesame is also a solution for elearning vendors, who can use our marketplace to reach new customers without investing in additional sales staff. Developers can sell existing off-the-shelf courses, thereby leveraging work they have already completed, or create new courses specifically for the OpenSesame marketplace.
As a company, we are hard-working and fun. We are proud of our approach to the workday, where we have a Wii in our conference room and a universal devotion to Chipotle burritos. We celebrate the holidays with a Rockband festival and a chocolate fountain.
The target audience for this ad is elearning course developers and authors: the sellers in our marketplace. They might be freelancers or they might be part of an elearning design company. They create elearning courses, and we want to get them to click through to our website to sell their courses in our online marketplace. We can help them sell their products, but they need to come to our website to get started.
These developers are talented designers in their own right, so our ad should communicate our commitment to professional & attractive design.
We need a banner ad in two sizes (180X150 and 120X240). Please visit http://www.OpenSesame.com to see our branding/colors.
We have a few ideas for the copy and concept, but we are open to other creative ideas as well.
Our concepts:
1) First image has a black background, with white font reading "Got Courses?" Second image would match our branding and read something like "Sell your courses in OpenSesame's elearning marketplace" or "Sell your courses on OpenSesame. The world's elearning marketplace." OpenSesame logo would be at bottom.
2) Image would start with a simple background and the following text would appear in stages:
You love to build elearning.
We love to sell it.
Let's meet up.
(OpenSesame Logo appears)
We are also interested in other concepts that would concisely communicate that we want to help elearning developers sell their courses to customers worldwide.
Technical specifications:
• Animated GIF file, maximum 30K
• Ads must be set to loop no more than three (3) times and then stop
on a non-blank static frame.

As a new teacher he was to visit and do a formal eval twice a year and to stop by and do walk throughs every other month. He did that for the first few months of me teaching. From there he only did formal evals, and then even my last half year there, he didn't do that. He just had me come down and sign the paperwork that he did do it. It's really a matter of time and money. Maybe instead of the government spending the outrageous amounts of money they do on reform and testing they should just supply the money for every school district to hire a person to do teacher evals, and report to the school principals about their teachers.

Mayor's Office
The Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department received its first shipment of the new H1N1 Influenza vaccine that is being distributed nation-wide. This shipment is all the live attenuated influenza vaccine, the intranasal sprayer (FluMist), and is a very small limited quantity (2,300 doses). This vaccine can only be administered to healthy individuals 2 years to 49 years of age. It can not be use to vaccinate women who are pregnant or children or adults with medical conditions.
Although the amount of vaccine received is small, the Department is not waiting until it has larger quantities of vaccine to begin getting it out into the community. This vaccine will be distributed over the next several days to local providers participating the 2009 H1N1 vaccine distribution program. The public is asked to be patient and not flood local providers with calls seeking to obtain the vaccine. It will take the rest of this month and likely part of November before there are sufficient supplies of the vaccine in the community for many of those in the five priority populations to obtain the vaccine.
The five priority populations are:
The new H1N1 influenza virus is continuing to cause mild illness in most individuals. Although getting a flu shot is the primary way to prevent getting the flu, until sufficient quantities of the new vaccine are available, it is important that individuals follow behavioral practices that can reduce their risk of getting and spreading the flu virus. These include:

Chelsea star Fernando Torres feels he has been treated unfairly since his switch to Stamford Bridge in January 2011.
The Chelsea striker has failed to find any real form since his move from Liverpool, coming under regular criticism for both his performances and his poor goal record.
Former Atletico Madrid man Torres was sensational in his three-and-a-half years at Anfield, however, since making the £50million move to London the goals have dried up.
Prior to his move south, the Spanish international struck 81 goals in just 143 appearances, earning the affection of the Kop in the process.
During his time at Chelsea, Torres hit just 37 goals - including just 15 in 87 Premier League games.
Despite the statistics, Torres maintains that he enjoyed a good year last season:
"It was a good season [last year], a good number of goals [22] that gave us a chance to fight for trophies," said Torres in the Evening Standard.
"But if you ask the people, they will say he can do better, should do better. It's like I said, with me good things are looking so-so and bad things are looking really bad."
And Torres, 29, believes the negativity has surrounded him from the first day of his move:
"It's the feeling I've had from the first day. There has been the situation going on with the club, the way the team are going and then my own way.
"There has been an overreaction about everything. Overreact when I did that miss or if I have a red card or I hit the crossbar instead of scoring a goal. They never talk about the good things. More or less from the beginning to this day, it's been the way I feel."
Whilst many may point to the inflated fee that his club paid for him - a British transfer record - El Nino does not believe it has had any influence on his performance.
"For me, it's [the price tag] never been a problem," said Torres. When I joined Liverpool from Atletico Madrid, they paid 36m and it was the same situation and never affected me. It's not something that's affecting me [now]. Everyone is talking about that but it's not true."
However, although Torres feels he had a good season as he helped Chelsea topple Benfica and win the Europa League, he does agree he could do better.
"I know I have many things to do at this club to give the confidence back to the owner. The amount of goals I scored last season should be the minimum.
"I want to ask that of myself but I have enough time. I signed a five-and-half year contract and I'm sure the future can only be better."
Torres is currently receiving treatment for a knee injury he sustained in Chelsea's Champions League tie with Steaua Bucharest and is expected to be out for three weeks.

The head of the Committee for Religious Affairs, Husein Shokirov, said in a news conference on February 5 that the unauthorized mosques have been repurposed into teahouses, hairdressers, cultural center, medical clinics and kindergartens, among other things.
"We gave the owners of the mosques time to file [registration] documents, but they didn't do it, so the sites were either reclaimed by the government or repurposed into social facilities," Shokirov said.
The committee says that there are 3,900 mosques operating with proper permits in Tajikistan.
Under Tajik law, while the responsibility of building mosques lies with the public, ultimate control over the premises and what happens inside them is assumed by the government. Imams are regularly required to renew paperwork so as to be able to execute their functions and sermons are written on their behalf by the authorities. Any clerics declining to cooperate with the government are invariably ousted.
Since 2014, imams have been receiving state salaries as if they were civil servants. And as of last month, laws have come into force requiring imams to declare all their sources of income. Most of their money typically comes from the offerings of congregants and payments for officiating special events.
Starting from 2010, the government began pursuing policies to restrict entire sections of the population from going to mosque. First women were forbidden and then it was the turn of young people under the age of 18.
The overall direction of travel is for greater state control over religion as a whole. The intent is to have single large mosques serve entire communities, so as to simplify the process of keeping tabs on the faithful.
But often, this centralizing trend complicates the exercise of attempting to observe religious obligations. Many believers hold to the view that prayers to the recently departed are meant to be said in the mosque. People in the regions, who have to cover distances of more than 50 kilometers to reach their closest place of prayer, are no longer in a position to fulfill that obligation in a convenient manner. The same difficulty obtains with attending Friday prayers.

Very interesting, Nathan, thanks for sharing.
I run through the css of a project I'm working on, while reading bit a bit your post here on 24ways. I've to admit that I should rethink a little bit the whole in order to get more than a tiny improvement applying attribute selectors to the logic. And I'm doing it!
It's great to discover and learn new things. Thank!
