The NFL has gotten too mainstream, so the Kissing Suzy Kolber blog is spinning Bon Iver on vinyl, serving up Pabst Blue Ribbon and assaulting team logos with some hipster flair before this weekend's conference championship games.
"Time to take those sweet perfect icons of million-dollar teams and contort them for the sake of a bad joke. Time to destroy what we love," wrote David Rappocio. Let's start with the matchups slated for this Sunday.
The next chapter in the epic Tom Brady–Peyton Manning rivalry is first on the docket. But let's evolve those Patriots and Broncos logos and take a look at two others that would be at home in a Seattle coffeehouse.
"Boston? Feh. I'm from Foxboro. You've probably never been there, it's way out of the way in the middle of the woods. Only the right people get invited."
"This ink on my neck represents my love of the obscure indie band Whiskey Anus. They broke up after one song but they will live forever."
After that, the San Francisco 49ers take on the Seattle Seahawks, two teams whose hometowns loom large in modern-day-hipster iconography. It's only fitting that their helmets be fine-tuned to represent that fact. And this is how they'd look:
"I only watch Organic football. Yeah, it's more expensive, but it's so much better for you. I can't put that junk football in my body, do you even know what you're doing to yourself with that? Gross."
"I spend so much time in my local coffee shop they asked me to pay rent."
Rappocio didn't stop there. He ran through the entire league. And they're all worth checking out, including this one for my Raiders — the best thing that's happened to this franchise since Jamarcus Russell and his purple drank got bounced.
"I lived in San Francisco for a while, but I got tired of paying $3,700 a month for 2 square feet in the Mission. Oakland is way more laid back, you just gotta get past the death and all."

Lincoln Mayor Don Wesely said construction began today, Monday, September 16, on the new overpass across the railroad tracks at 3rd and "A" streets. New roads to access "A" street will also be built to improve traffic circulation in the area. The project is expected to be completed by early winter 2003. Plantings and landscaping are expected to be completed in spring 2004.
"Increased rail traffic has made traveling through this neighborhood difficult," said Mayor Wesely. "The City has been working to find a solution since the 1980s, and I want to thank the people of the neighborhood for their patience and their involvement in this project. This is a very important project for Southwest Lincoln."
"As the Southwest District City Council representative and as a member of the Railroad Transportation Safety District, I'm excited that we are finally able to move forward on this important project," said City Council Member Jonathan Cook.
Over the past two years, alternatives solutions have been reviewed and evaluated. The final design calls for the bridge to be built south of the existing "A" Street where it will have minimal impact on homes. The bridge will start at 5th Street and touch back down at 1st, spanning the double tracks on 3rd Street. As part of the overall project, the Union Pacific tracks along 4th street were removed earlier this year.
"The bridge is viewed not just as a transportation feature, but also as a continuation of neighborhood revitalization efforts under way in the neighborhood," said Wynn Hjermstad, Manager of the Community Development division of the City's Urban Development Department. "A great deal of attention has been given to the aesthetics of the bridge to make sure it enhances this historic area."
The total project cost is about $10 million. Most of the funding is through the Railroad Transportation Safety District, with some funding provided by the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway Company (BNSF) and the State of Nebraska. The project has been jointly managed by the City Urban Development and Public Works and Utilities Departments.
The overpass is the last of several projects identified by the South Salt Creek Neighborhood Association to help mitigate the impact of the construction of BNSF's second main line along 3rd Street. Projects already completed include the paving of 3rd street from "A" to "H" streets; the paving of four alleys; construction of the pedestrian underpass at 3rd and F, including landscaping and a mural; and landscaping along 3rd Street. Plans area also being made for a paving and landscaping on 4th Street where the railroad tracks were removed.

Dear Ms. Murphy
I just signed a petition saying:
"More whistleblowing about corporate crimes could have made the foreclosure crisis and economic meltdown less severe. Whistleblowers should never be forced or engouraged to take their concerns to their potentially corrupt bosses first: Those who go directly to the government deserve the strongest rewards and protections allowed by law."
It's hard to believe that anyone thinks whistleblowers should go and "fess up" prior to reporting is completely sane. Why would you want that to happen unless you are guilty as charged?

World War One soldiers were not only defined by heroism during battle but by the lives they went on to lead if they were among the fortunate survivors.
As the 100th annual commemoration of the start of The Great War in August approaches, David Middleton, of Chesterfield, has shared his grandfather Christopher Loveridge's remarkable story with the Derbyshire Times.
David Middleton was inspired by his grandfather's bible which was inscribed "be a good soldier and fight the Battle of Life and Faith" and he has compiled a touching biography entitled The Battle of Life and Faith.
Mr Middleton said: "Many times he told us about being in Ypres, Passchendaele and Arras. Each name being enough to send shivers down your spine.
"It was during his time in these places he suffered and escaped with horrific injuries including gassing, frost bite and shrapnel in his back."
Pte Loveridge, of the Sherwood Foresters, enlisted when he was aged 17 and during reflections he told how he had seen the River Somme "running red with blood".
He told family he had been a stretcher-bearer and is believed to have been a marksman which might explain why he was banned from shooting tin ducks at Brampton Fair.
Pte Loveridge, of Chesterfield, was part of the Foresters' Machine Gun Core and with a full marksman's grade he would have been part of a group known as the Suicide Brigade due to their short life expectancy.
After the war, Pte Loveridge volunteered in the Second World War Blitz rescuing survivors and he worked with the St John Ambulance and was honoured as a prolific blood donor.
Mr Middleton added: "I have very fond memories of the nicest grandfather in the world. I was named after him of which I am very proud."
The inscription on Pte Loveridge's bible about the Battle of Life and Faith is poignant for his grandson after research revealed the war horrors his grandfather endured and the way he still contributed to society in later years.
A loving grandson's fond memories of his grandfather and the soldier's inscribed bible motivated him to research Pte Christopher Loveridge's World War One experiences.
David Middleton, of Chesterfield, began researching grandfather Pte Christopher Loveridge during the 90th Remembrance Service which marked 90 years since the end of World War One. He was motivated by Pte Loveridge's bible which had been inscribed by the soldier's father urging his son to "be a good soldier and fight the Battle of life and Faith".
Pte Loveridge's stories to family including carefully lighting cigarettes so as not to attract sniper's bullets, terrifying treatments for frost bite and a river running with blood lay the foundations for the research. Mr Middleton researched the Sherwood Foresters regiment and the National Archives. His mother Joan Loveridge helped David as they trawled through photographs to bring Pte Loveridge's story to life.
The Derbyshire Times is marking 100 years since the start of World War I by sharing our readers' stories of that time. Get in touch with memories of your relatives' roles in the Great War. Contact reporter Jon Cooper at firstname.lastname@example.com or call (01246) 504524.

SPF is an extension to Internet e-mail. It prevents unauthorized people from forging your e-mail address (see the introduction). But for it to work, your own or your e-mail service provider's setup may need to be adjusted. Otherwise, the system may mistake you for an unauthorized sender.
Note that there is no central institution that enforces SPF. If a message of yours gets blocked due to SPF, this is because (1) your domain has declared an SPF policy that forbids you to send through the mail server through which you sent the message, and (2) the recipient's mail server detected this and blocked the message.
kamataxxx, received a message from sp49-98-162-242.msd.spmode.ne.jp (184.108.40.206) that claimed an envelope sender address of firstname.lastname@example.com.
However, the domain kamata-net.com has declared using SPF that it does not send mail through sp49-98-162-242.msd.spmode.ne.jp (22.214.171.124). That is why the message was rejected.
kamata-net.com should have given you a way to send mail through an authorized server.
If you are using a mail program as opposed to web-mail, you may need to update the "SMTP server" configuration setting according to your ISP's instructions. You may also need to turn on authentication, and enter your username and password in your mail program's options. Please contact your ISP for assistance.
If you run your own MTA, you may have to set a "smarthost" or "relayhost". If you are mailing from outside your ISP's network, you may also have to make your MTA use authenticated SMTP. Ideally your server should listen on port 587 as well as port 25.
If your mail was correctly sent, but was rejected because it passed through a forwarding service, as an interim solution you can mail the final destination address directly (it should be shown in the bounce message). See the forwarding best practices (or refer the recipient there) for the discussion of a proper solution.
If you need further help, see our support section for free support and professional consulting services.
The administrator of the domain kamata-net.com may have incorrectly configured its SPF record. This is a common cause of mistakes.
Here's what you can do: Contact the kamata-net.com postmaster and tell them that they need to change kamata-net.com's SPF record so that it authorizes sp49-98-162-242.msd.spmode.ne.jp. For example, they could change the record to something like
v=spf1 mx include:spf-01.asahi-net.or.jp a:sp49-98-162-242.msd.spmode.ne.jp -all
If you refer your postmaster to this web page, they should be able to solve the problem.
SPF successfully blocked a forgery attempt; someone tried to send mail pretending to be from email@example.com, but the message was rejected before anybody saw it. This means SPF is working as designed.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The director of the forthcoming "X-Men" film on Thursday called claims that he sexually abused a teen more than a decade ago a "sick, twisted shakedown," and said he was dropping out of promotional events for the movie ahead of its release.
Bryan Singer, 48, said in a statement that the allegations are "outrageous, vicious and completely false."
Last week, Michael Egan, 31, accused Singer in a civil lawsuit filed in federal court in Hawaii of drugging and raping him in 1999 in Hawaii and California. Egan, who was an aspiring teen actor at the time, seeks unspecified damages.
"I promise when this situation is over, the facts will show this to be the sick, twisted shakedown it is," Singer said in a statement, adding that he would not participate in media events for the film because it would be a distraction.
A message left for Egan's attorney on Thursday was not immediately returned.
The lawsuit could overshadow the promotional rollout of Singer's "X-Men: Days of Future Past," which is expected to be one of the year's top grossing films.
The film is estimated to gross $108 million in its opening weekend at the U.S. box office, according to BoxOffice.com.
The latest installment of the "X-Men" franchise stars Patrick Stewart, Jennifer Lawrence and Hugh Jackman, and is distributed by 20th Century Fox.
Singer's attorney had previously denied the allegations.
Egan has also sued three other entertainment industry executives in Hawaii with sexually abusing him during that time. All three have denied the accusations.

But this post is not about Amy Chua or her new book. This post is about the reaction of Asian Americans that Chua's new book triggered. Once the scathing New York Post preview of Chua's new book came out, (some) Asian Americans immediately burst into outrage. Much of the outrage was dedicated to busting the Asian American stereotype Chua appeared to enforce. And a smaller, but vocal, fraction of the outrage was directed at Chua herself, and the concept of Tiger Parenting.
This post is about that smaller fraction. I believe the Asian American outrage against Chua and Tiger Parenting is misguided. But first, let me be clear: I am not here to defend Tiger Parenting. The way I feel about Tiger Parenting is hardly a secret. I believe I made a solid case in favor of Tiger Parenting already; if I did not convince you then, I don't expect to convince you now. Again, this post is not about Chua herself, or her new book, or even about Tiger Parenting. It is about how we Asian Americans who wish to fight the stereotypes ought to know the correct target for our outrage.
Suppose two African American diners visit a restaurant. Once they sit down, a Caucasian waiter comes to the table and informs that the dinner special for that day will be fried chicken. The first diner considers the menu, considers the special, and orders fried chicken because it sounds delicious. The second diner also considers the menu, and considers the special. Then the second diner looks at the white waiter, looks around to find a great number of white diners around their table, and reminds himself about the pernicious stereotype regarding black folks and fried chicken. He then orders something else from the menu.
In this example, which diner truly enforced the stereotype about African Americans and fried chicken--the first diner who simply ordered what she wanted to eat, or the second diner who decided his dinner to oppose the prevailing stereotype? What if the second diner berated the first diner for daring to order what she felt like having for dinner? Would he be justified in doing so?
This hypothetical is akin to how some Asian Americans react to Amy Chua. And the answers to the questions above, to me, are clear: it is the second diner that does more to enforce the stereotype, and his criticism of the first diner is misguided.
(More after the jump.)
Got a question or a comment for the Korean? Email away at firstname.lastname@example.com.
My answer may sound counter-intuitive. The stereotype is that African Americans are unduly fond of fried chicken, and the first diner ordered fried chicken. How did she not enforce the stereotype? But this line of thinking is short-sighted, for it confuses the fundamental error of stereotypes. The fundamental problem of stereotypes is not that there exist some individuals who fit the stereotypes. The fundamental problem of stereotypes is that they are made to fit everyone in a given group.
To understand this distinction, it is critically important to understand who operates the stereotypes. Going back to the example of two African American diners, it must be understood that an African American who simply orders what she feels like having is not the one who imposes the stereotype on all black people. Rather, it is the mainstream society that imposes the stereotype that all African Americans are genetically predisposed to prefer fried chicken. Likewise, it is not Amy Chua that imposes the Model Minority stereotype on Asian Americans. Rather, it is the mainstream society that imposes the Model Minority stereotype on all Asian Americans.
Note that none of this depends on the relative merits of the thing or the action that underlies the stereotype. One can rationally discuss whether eating fried chicken is a good idea, considering its health effects. Similarly, one can debate vigorously on whether Tiger Parenting is a sound educational philosophy. But the outcome of those debates does not affect the pernicious effects of stereotyping, because the evil core of stereotypes is never, and has never been, about the particular vehicle of stereotype. The evil core of stereotypes is, and has always been, the act of stereotyping, the mainstream society's willingness to indiscriminately assign stereotypes to individuals belonging to particular racial, ethnic, religious or cultural groups.
I can see the frustration of the proverbial second diner: "If only African Americans stopped eating fried chicken around white people, that stereotype will go away!" Similarly, I can see the frustration of some Asian Americans: "If only Amy Chua stopped talking about Tiger Parenting that makes us look like automatons, Asian American stereotypes will disappear!" But while understandable, this frustration is misguided in several ways.
First, without addressing the core evil of stereotypes, i.e. the act of stereotyping, stereotypes will never go away. Instead, one just replaces the other. Recall that the stereotypical image of a submissive Asian woman travels with the equally stereotypical image of a domineering Dragon Lady. Even if tomorrow, by some miracle, all African Americans were to find fried chicken unpalatable, all Hispanic Americans were to have perfectly legitimate American citizenship and all Asian Americans doctors were to became the most creative, free-wheeling artists in the world, the mainstream society that seeks to stereotype these ethnic groups will simply find some other vehicles of stereotype with which reduce blacks, Hispanics and Asians down to a caricature.
Second, a mind beholden to bias does not operate rationally; it distorts the reality around it to fit its preferred stereotypes. We constantly see that, for example, someone who is convinced that illegal immigrants are more crime-prone, highlights every crime committed by an illegal alien and filters out of his mind the statistical truth that illegal immigrants are in fact less likely than the native-born to commit crimes. A bigoted mind requires but one example to validate its bias. It is foolish to attack the example, when the root of the problem is the bigotry.
Third, as I alluded before, such frustration empowers the stereotype further. In the case of the two diners, consider which one has the greater primacy of his or her own life. The first diner will have what she wants for dinner. The second diner surrenders that choice, opting instead to let the stereotype dictate what he will have for dinner. Which one of the two is more freed from stereotypes? If we are fighting stereotypes so that we may be treated as an individual rather than a caricature, we cannot do so by delegating our individuality to the force of those stereotypes.
Nor can we do so by attacking our peers. The most distressing part of watching Asian Americans' Amy Chua-bashing was that it smacks of an attempt to establish themselves as "the cool ones with individuality" by throwing another prominent Asian American under the bus. It has been a constant refrain in Asian American intellectual history to seek the mainstream society's acceptance by becoming an outspoken critic of what is perceived as peculiarly Asian. Renounce the language, the food, the culture, and soon we can be full-fledged Americans like the ones we see on television--so the thinking goes. But it does not work that way. A house slave may feel closer to the white society than a field slave; to the slave owner, they are slaves all the same. Likewise, a bigoted mind does not spare an Asian American from stereotypes no matter how much that Asian American renounces Tiger Parenting and Amy Chua.
We cannot fight the prejudice against us by letting the prejudice set the course of our actions. We can only do so by claiming our full individuality, by living our lives in a way we see fit, with pride and no apologies. If you are critical of Tiger Parenting, go on and be critical. But know that Amy Chua is simply living her life with no apologies. If you want to combat stereotypes, you should too. For Amy Chua is not your enemy; the enemy is the mainstream society that expects you to be the same person as she.

Are American workers paid enough? That is a topic that is endlessly debated all across this great land of ours. Unfortunately, what pretty much everyone can agree on is that American workers are not making as much as they used to after you account for inflation. Back in 1968, the minimum wage in the United States was $1.60 an hour. That sounds very small, but after you account for inflation a very different picture emerges. Using the inflation calculator that the Bureau of Labor Statistics provides, $1.60 in 1968 is equivalent to $10.74 today.
And of course the official government inflation numbers have been heavily manipulated to make inflation look much lower than it actually is, so the number for today should actually be substantially higher than $10.74, but for purposes of this article we will use $10.74. If you were to work a full-time job at $10.74 an hour for a full year (with two weeks off for vacation), you would make about $21,480 for the year.
That isn't a lot of money, but according to the Social Security Administration, 40.28% of all workers make less than $20,000 a year in America today. So that means that more than 40 percent of all U.S. workers actually make less than what a full-time minimum wage worker made back in 1968. That is how far we have fallen.
The other day I wrote an article which discussed the transition that we are witnessing in our economy right now. Good paying full-time jobs are disappearing, and they are being replaced by low paying part-time jobs. So far this year, 76.7 percent of the jobs that have been "created" in the U.S. economy have been part-time jobs.

Oscar Wilde believed that no man would ever be rich enough to buy back his past. This idea has been translated into his satirical play, "An Ideal Husband," which involves themes of the ideal marriage, the ideal woman, and aestheticism and the art of Victorian life.
Set during the 1895, an era in which wealth and social status ruled all. Various characters epitomize citizens of the time.
Lord Goring, (Dallas Hall) is the perfect dandy bachelor. His object of wooing is Mabel Chiltern, (Mckenzie Adams) the ideal single woman.
Lord Chaversam, (Daniel Noriot) is the perfect grumpy old man, and Lady Markby (Jessica Bradford) is the best gossip.
The ideal man, Robert Chiltern (Ryan Turk) has married his ideal wife, Gertrude Chiltern (Jeannie Kirk) and they live the ideal life. However, their perfection does not last forever.
The lamia-like antagonist, Laura Cheveley (Kelly Davis) has proof that Robert Chiltern sold a government secret and blackmails Robert. The price of returning the letter is that Robert must vote and support a corrupt government bill.
Robert denies her request so Mrs. Cheveley goes on a rampage, and through her masked charm tells Gertrude of her husband's past. Thus, ruining the ideal image that Gertrude believed she had achieved.
This farcical depiction of social ideals is still obvious in society today.
To discover the mystery of the ending you are invited to watch the San Juan High School Drama Departments Fall Production of, Oscar Wilde's: An Ideal Husband, November 21-22 and 24-25 at 7 p.m. in the Auditorium Theatre.

EXCLUSIVEThey say weed can make you forget things ... like when your REALLY good friend is getting married -- just ask rapper Curren$y who blew off Wiz Khalifa's nuptials because he was too baked.
Curren$y -- a huuuge rapper who's worked with everyone from Snoop to Lil Wayne, Master P and, most famously, his close friend Wiz Khalifa -- was in NY for a hip hop awards show when he dropped a truth bomb about why he wasn't around when Wiz tied the knot with Amber Rose.
"We were totally like baked and I totally just smoked off my appearance," Curren$y said ... adding, "But he knows it's love and we definitely spoke and it's all good."
If anyone would understand, it's Wiz ... who's equally passionate about the green stuff. Just ask that one guy at the airport ...

The new center is at located at 2019 S. Third St., behind the Leavenworth Price Chopper.
Animal Control officials moved into the new facility last week. City officials had a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the building Monday and hosted an open house.
Kitchens said having a well cared for animal population improves public safety in Leavenworth. And, with the opening of the new facility, the city takes a significant step forward in providing public safety.
Leavenworth Mayor Mark Preisinger said the new facility is larger than the old building.
"It is much, much better than what we had before," he said.
Preisinger noted the old Animal Control building had flooded three times in the last 10-15 years, which forced the city to temporarily relocate animals.
"The facility is long overdue to be replaced," he said.
The new facility was built on city-owned land.
Although it's not far from the old Animal Control building, the new location has not flooded in recent years.
City officials said the site didn't even flood in 1993, the year of the worst flooding of the Missouri River in the city's history.
The new 7,800-square-feet Animal Control building allows for a 10 percent increase in capacity.
While leading a tour through the new building, Animal Control Supervisor Cindy Dressler discussed facility features.
One of the features she noted was the design of a heating and air-conditioning system that prevents healthy animals from breathing the same air as animals that are in quarantine and isolation.
Kitchens noted that landscaping has not been completed around the new building.
"We had landscaping planned," he said.
But, the company that was supposed to handle the landscaping went out of business.
He said city officials now plan to wait until after the hottest months of summer before completing the landscaping.

The Treehouse After School Club
We are a mother and daughter setting up a new educational childcare business for school aged children (aged 5 to 12 years). Mother has reared 7 kids & managed a community creche for the last 6 years. Daughter has worked in business improvement for the last 10 years (mainly manufacturing), and has always had a huge desire to set up a business of her own. This is our first foray into business together. The main objectives of this venture is to have fun, and for the kids to love coming to The Treehouse, and for us to make a decent living from the business. Next stop... global franchising of The Treehouse After School Club!
Children aged 5 to 12 years who require childcare after school finishes until 6pm. Also the working parents of children attending school, who need their children to be taken care of until the end of their working day.. The environment is specific to school aged children, with activities geared to them. It is a major plus for this age group that they can socialise with their peers in a fun and safe environment.
I would like the logo to be: Bold, bright, clean, colourful.
It has to be suitable for and attractive to children aged between 5 and 12, so simple (cartoon type) pictures may work. Bright colours. Possibly a treehouse in a tree, with rope ladder, bird/bird house in the tree & a couple of children in it.. but don't want the logo to be too busy/cluttered. I also thought putting the logo in a circle with the name 'Treehouse After School Club' in there around the circle/somewhere...but open to suggestions!
File formats required: Jpeg and eps. We plan to use the logo on the welcome page of our website, on flyers, and for printing onto t-shirts/bags, so any other file formats that we may need for these too. I use a macbook.
Examples of Logos/website graphics I like.....

Demetriou Paradisos Hills Hotel
We are a small village hotel in Cyprus looking for a logo design. The name of the hotel means Paradise Hills. We prefer to just have Paradisos Hills Hotel in the logo but by law we need to include the D for Demetriou some how, it does not need to be clear though as long as it is there. Our website is http://www.paradisoshills.com although you should not take the site into to much detail as that will also probably be changing in the near future.
Our target audience is travellers from the ages of 30 up who enjoy agro-tourism. Walking, bike riding. The hotel is is in the mountains with amazing views down to the sea. The hotel is for people looking at getting a relaxing and peacefull getaway. There is also a warm feeling as it is a family run hotel and all guests are welcomed in as part of the family. It is also been design very traditionally using all local materials and stone to build the hotel.
We were thinking the logo would be peacefull colours if that makes any sense. An idea might also be to include some sort of hills in the logo.

Volume XVI, No. 8 BETHEL INSTITUTE, ST. PAUL, MINN. February 18, 1937
Work Already Begun on
BETHEL DEBATERS GAIN HIGH College Library Project
Rev. Frykenberg Tells
of Mission Experiences
Rev. Mr. Eric Frykenberg, missionary
of South India, visited Bethel, his Alma
Mater, on February eighth and ninth.
He has just concluded a series of evan-gelistic
meetings in the Bethel Baptist
Church of Minneapolis; next month he
is to return to India.
Immediately following his gradua-tion
from Bethel Theological Seminary
in St. Paul in 1929, Rev. Mr. Fryken-berg,
accompanied by his wife, engaged
in active foreign missionary service.
After six years of successful labor they
returned to the homeland in Novem-ber,
1935. Besides conducting hundreds
of services in the States during his fur-lough,
he has completed his college
education in Gordon College, Boston,
Massachusetts, and is a candidate for
graduation this spring; by that time,
however, he will not be there in per-son
to receive his diploma but will be
on his way to the mission field.
Prayer Brings Revival
-For years we have been praying for
a revival . ' stated Rev. Mr. Frykenberg
"and the Lord has answered our
prayer. - About a century ago a mar-velous
revival swept the low caste peo-ple
of South India; now thousands of
the higher caste, the "Sudras", are
turning to the Lord; some five thousand
have been baptized and the revival con-tinues.
With the permeation of the
caste system by Christianity the class
distinction decreases.
The missionary methods are mainly
evangelistic, according to Rev. Mr. Fry-kenberg.
Stations are established from
which Bible women, native workers,
and the missionaries reach out into the
Masses with the Gospel message. The
natives are given enough instruction to
enable them to read and write; this
permits them to spread the Gospel more
Field Has Thousand Villages
In their first term of foreign mis-sionary
service, Rev. and Mrs. Fryken-berg
labored among the Telegu peo-ple;
now they will center their minis-try
among the Kanigiri and Rodeli peo-ple.
The field they are about to enter
has nearly a thousand villages with
some eight or nine hundred inhabitants
each. In the last years many mission-aries
have been recalled; "the harvest
truly is great but the laborers are few;
pray YE, therefore, the Lord of the
harvest to send forth laborers into the
harvest field."
Life of D. L. Moody
Is Feature of Alexis
A discussion of the life of Dwight L.
Moody was the main feature of the
initial Alexis program of this semester
held Wednesday evening, February I 0.
The discussion of the life of Dwight L.
Moody by President Donald Peterson
took the place of the customary in-augural
address. Aymond Anderson,
Vice President, presided at the meet-ing.
Margaret Larson favored with two
vocal solos. Remarks by Dr. Karlson,
critic, concluded the program. After
lunch, Gordon Anderson, entertainment
chairman, led the group in playing a
few games.
Franklin Nelson, a Bethel graduate
and pastor of Minnehaha Baptist
Church, Minneapolis, entertained the
College Club, Wednesday evening by
relating the experiences of a bicycle
tour in Europe. As this was the first
meeting of the semester, the following
newly elected officers served for their
first time:
President, Carl Lundquist; Vice pres-ident,
Martha Olson; Secretary, Wilma
Hartley; Treasurer, John Valine; Pian-ist,
Ruth Fredine.
Special- music was furnished by the
boy's vocal trio, John Valine, Ned
Holmgren, and Herbert Franck. The
meeting was followed by refreshments
and a social hour in the cafeteria.
Former Investigator of
Narcotics Addresses F.F.F.
The first meeting of the Fireside Fel-lowship
Forum was held on Tuesday
evening, February 16, in the Seminary
dining hall. The speaker for the occa-sion
was Mr. 0. A. H. De La Gardie,
former Federal Northwest Chief In-vestigator
of Narcotics, who brought
an address on "Narcotics, Their Ef-fects,
and the Federal Government's
Means of Combating Them".
The activities of the evening began
with a dinner at six o'clock. Following
the dinner, Mr. De La Gardie spoke,
and the remaining time was spent in
general discussion.
This was the first of a series of three
forums to be held this semester. The
purpose of these forums is to further
enlighten the students concerning prob-lems
of the day which are of vital im-portance
to the competent modern citi-zen.
The topic for discussion at the next
meeting of the Fireside Fellowship For-um
is "Factions in Europe".
Cheer Leader Has New Outfit
A monstrous megaphone and a new
white sweater with a big red "B" are
new equipment for Pierre Tangent,
Bethel's sprightly cheer leader.
Nelson and Lundquist Win
Six Out of Eight
A men's team, Edward Nelson and
Carl Lundquist, clinched an upper
rating for Bethel in the Red River Val-ley
Debate Tournament held at Moore-head,
Minn, February 5 and 6 by win-ning
six out of the eight debates. Final
results indicated that Bethel, compet-ing
mostly against four-year colleges,
placed among the top fourth of the
sixty-eight teams participating. Nelson,
veteran debater from last year, and
Lundquist, with four years of high
school and college debating behind him,
took both sides of the national Pi Kappa
Delta question: "Resolved, that Con-gress
be empowered to fix minimum
wages and maximum hours for indus-try."
Compete with Four Year Colleges
Teams from North Dakota, South
Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota,
and Wisconsin entered the two-day
event, participating in a total of 275
debates. Bethel's rating was a high one,
considering it was the first time the
school had entered the tournament and
that the competition was from four-year
colleges. Plans are now being
made to have a special Junior College
division of the tournament next year.
During the first day Bethel defeated
Dickinson State Teachers, Moorehead
State Teachers and Mayville State
Teachers, losing only to Eau Claire,
Wisconsin. Victories over River Falls,
Wisconsin, and Valley City, North Da-kota
and a technical forfeit from Chad-ron,
Nebraska, were awarded during
the second day The fifth-round debate
was lost to Waldorf Junior College,
the only other two-year school entered
in the event.
Augustana College won the women's
division, while Carleton College defeated
Huron College for the men's champion-ship.
Special features of the tourna-ment
included two exhibition debates,
an open forum on the problem of min-imum
wages, and a closing all•debaters'
banquet Saturday evening.

"One of the important steps in
Bethel's program for next year," said
Dean Johnson, "will be the establish-ment
of the new library." In speaking
of plans for the new project, Mr. John-son
stated that work has already begun
on a new and improved library on the
south side of the second floor of the
college building. There will be three
rooms used—the Clarion office, room
204, and the girls' reception room.
Library to Be Divided
He said that the west room will be
used for periodicals only. The center
room will be the librarian's office and
will contain books on reserve. The
main part of the library, stacks and
study tables, will be in what is now
the Clarion office.
The N. Y. A. boys will do as much
of the work as possible. They have
torn down the temporary walls of the
Clarion office. They will plaster and
paint the walls and ceilings, install
new fixtures, and sand and refinish the
floors. Later they will move the books
into these rooms.
Dean Cites Advantages
Upon being asked the advantages of
the new location, Mr. Johnson said
that first of all there will be more room.
Then the periodicals will be removed
from the study room and there will be
a separation of material. The library
will be away from the chapel and its
music. The present disturbance of peo-ple
going into the office will be elim-inated.
The present library will be used to
house a new office and a new lecture
room. This will also necessitate many
"We hope, - said Mr Johnson, "that
by these changes we will bring about
better study conditions in the library,
and better conditions in the offices and
lecture rooms
Harold Wilson of Alcester, S. Dak.,
who has been reporter and managing
editor of the Clarion for the past three
semesters was chosen editor of the
Bethel Clarion in an all-school ballot
held recently. Mr. Wilson, who is a
Gospel team leader and who has par-ticipated
in other school activities, suc-ceeds
Richard Werner, who has served
as editor since last March.
On the same ballot, Ralph Johnson
of Dassel, Minnesota, was chosen asso-ciate
editor. Mr. Johnson, a Seminary
middle-man, has been writing the col-umn,
Lens Lessons, and other special
articles. He is the chief student librarian
in the Seminary.
The managing editor of the Clarion
will be selected soon.
John Linbeck Honored
John Linbeck of Loyang, Honan,
China, is the president of the newly or-ganized
chapter of the Lutheran Stu-dents
of America at Gustavus Adolphus
College, St Peter, Minn. Mr. Linbeck is
a member of Pi Gamma Mu, national
social science fraternity, and is presi-dent
of the senior class at Gustavus
Adolphus College. Mr. Linbeck attend-ed
Bethel Junior College in '34-'35.

Between two men the essential difference does not con-sist
The respective number of books each has read
Nor in the different types consulted
although the choice of companions is important
Nor in the care used in reading those books
meticulous notes taken
understanding of what is read
Higher education certainly gives certain advantages
such as richer vocabulary and greater earning capacity
and a certain amount of superficial poise
Even athletes cribbing in education must learn
But there are some things that higher education is not
nor can it give
Some think that higher education is the worst foe of
But sometimes higher education makes black look
The Jesuits were profoundly learned bigots
Some believe higher education is a sure bulwark of
But the university can disseminate race hatred and
spurious anthropology
Poor Heidelburg University is used for despots today
We may yet be taught race hatred and bloody na-tionalism
Other young people have so been victimized
Some believe higher education makes for sane govern-ment
John Lundberg does not so believe
And I know that there can be very learned fools in
Although I am for the New Deal
But culture is beyond higher education
It is an attitude and not a goal for degrees
It expresses itself in art but it is not mechanical
It is opposed to bigotry for poise cannot be one-sided
It has with it sweetness and light as Arnold said
So it cannot be arrogant
It appreciates that which is always beautiful and true
And it shuns injustice
You ask why I do not speak of the local issue
But it can have a local application and it does
For we are not in a Monastery
And the World Spirit reaches even here
But it is of the individual and not of the group
And it is always attitude and not attainment
(This is an experiment in form. Give your impression
to A. H. L % Clarion.)
We Say "Farewell" and
Add "Come Back"
Again the editorial staff changes personnel. Last Feb-ruary,
David Guston relinquished the duties of editing the
Clarion to give more time to the Student Council. Rich-ard
Werner became the new editor. Recently "Dick" de-cided
to leave school for in indefinite period of time.
It may sound trite to say that we are sorry to see
Dick go, but we are sincere. Dick worked hard. He gave
others responsibility. He knew that to successfully edit
a paper he must spread the responsibility.
He is one of three who have left after the first semester.
We miss "TWO-PENNY LINES", the column written by
Carl Young. We have appreciated the capable work of
Helen Larson, Circulation Manager.
"Moody. Man of God Still Lives"
"Just one life,
'Twill soon be past
Only what's done
For Christ—will last."
These few simple lines of verse express a great spiritual
truth—that if any act, deed, or thought shall weather
the time, it must be linked with the eternal. No greater
expression of this truth can be found than that of the
man, D. L. Moody. This year marks the hundredth anni-versary
of his birth. As an act of commemoration of his
life and work, the Christian world has designated this
entire year as The Moody Centenial.
Only one man—one brief life; and yet this man stirred
nations for God, not only during his life time, but made
a lasting impression upon the entire world. One of the
greatest contributions in direct harmony with his life,
was the founding of the Moody Bible Institute of Chi-cago;
a school which from the day of its conception until
the present has continued to uphold the teachings of
this man of God and to embody them into thousands of
personalities who in turn have gone into the entire world
carrying the greatest of all messages.
Looking into the life of this man we find the secret
of the great power which he possessed as a preacher and
the reason for his immortal fame. The secrets that one day
he heard a man utter these words: "The world has yet
to see what God will do with and for and through and in
and by the man who is fully and wholly consecrated to
Him." Moody determined in his heart, by the grace of
God, that he would be that man. From that day forth the
life of D. L. Moody began to build upon foundations that
never shall be shaken.
Summing the whole matter up we find a great man
making a great resolution, and an Eternal Christ work-ing
through this man yielding fruit that abides forever.
Who can measure the work of D. L. Moody? Can
man? No! Only when the Eternal Day has dawned when
all things shall be known will man be able to comprehend
the vastness of the work of this one man whose life was
wholly yielded to God.
We are not in an evil creation but in a good one,
a creation that observes balance as a first law. We
have a good world that can be good to us if we
observe its natural laws that are divinely given. In
my body and in this world I have the choice of joy
or of misery. I can implicate others and the world
in my lawlessness and its retribution. Thus:
When I live in reverence for God's creation I am
prosperous, when I do not, I am broken.
When I deny life it denies me.
When I complain I am hemmed in by discontent.
When I lust I am devoured.'
When I am parsimonious I am straightened in
my spirit.
When I sow to winds I reap whirlwinds.
But when I reverence His will for the world and
for myself, His creature, I am relaxed and happy
and not anxious for anything.
Hilding Lind.
"A Christian Manifesto"
Reviewed by R. J.
Hailed as a "most important con-tribution
to theological literature";
labled "anti-modernist but unorthodox;
regarded as the sorry retreat of a lead-ing
liberal; so was Dr. Edwin Lewis' A
Christian Manifesto received when it
appeared a little over two years ago.
The ultra-fundamentalists could not
agree with it; the ultra-modernists
could not accept it. The former ob-jected
that the author has too low a
regard for the Bible, that he infers that
it is in some instances mistaken, that
he says it contains myth and accomo-dates
itself to the language of the day
although that language was inaccurate.
They accuse him of being unorthodox
in his conception of the Trinity, the
Person of Christ, Sin, and other points
of doctrine.
When we find Dr. Lewis saying of
the modernists that their "whittling
down of the gospel of the Son of God"
produces something that is not Chris-tianity
at all we do not wonder that
they do not acclaim his Manifesto. He
has been a leader in the liberal ranks;
he has become less "liberal - and they
don't like it. He characterizes their
religion as the worship of a philosophi-cal
naturalism. They don't like that
Our author has taken a position in
which he must expect to receive opposi-tion
and criticism from more quarters
than would have been the case had he
"leaned" a little more either way.
The book begins with the author's
saying that the Christian faith need not
retreat before the advances which have
been made in science and philosophy
for it has in its great doctrines some-thing
without which we cannot well
get along. The work is an effort to de-clare
the essentials which are funda-mental
to our Faith.
Regarding the New Testament Dr.
Lewis says that it is not the basis of
our faith, but the witness to the basis.
The basis of our faith is the life, death,
and particularly, the resurrection of
Jesus Christ. He goes on to say "The
final evidence to the resurrection . . .
is not documentary . . . but institution-al
.. . and experimental . . . Today, as
in the past, Christ may `appear' to men
in the way".
Not unaware that it is endangering
his popularity, the writer then sets forth
the defense for his belief in the Super-natural.
He has experienced Christian-ity.
"Christianity is Supernaturalism -
. . . "For what is left when the great
miracle (the resurrection) is denied is
not Christianity."
The presentation of the doctrine of
sin does not sound very heterodox. It
begins with a holy God and sinful man
at enmity and insists that man is im-potent
to bring about his own trans-formation.
"The Atoning Deed" follows natur-ally
in the sequence of chapters; "The
Incarnate God" and "The Great Tribu-lation"
succeed it. The book ends with
the chapter entitled "The Affirmative
Faith" emphasizing the need for such
a faith, and challenging the reader to a
crusade in its behalf. But the crusader
must be a "believer", for the crusade
is a crusade of faith. The subpoints
"Let us affirm the authority of the
Word of God. -
"Let us affirm the fact of sin."
"Let us affirm the Divine Christ."
"Let us affirm the cross as the su-preme
event of the divine-human his-tory."
"Let us affirm the gospel as God's
provision for the salvation of the whole
The final word is "Then let us af-firm".
That in whole milk the human body finds every element needed,
regardless of the form in which it is consumed; minerals, proteins,
sugar, fats—and the vitamins.

A girls' basketball team has been
organized recently. This is the first
time for several years that Bethel has
been represented in any basketball
league by a girls' team.
Their first game was played against
the Bethel Church girls' team, a few
weeks ago. The church team barely
nosed out a victory over the school
team by the slim margin of four points,
the final score being 18-14.
The girls who played on the school
team were Hope Widen, La Verne
Bjorklund, Vivyonne Ekstrom, Gladys
Peterson, Jessie Thomson, Mildren Ka-sen,
and Olive Stanford. Hope Widen
scored 8 points for the losers.
Their second game was played
against the team of The First Swedish
Baptist Church of Minneapolis. The
final score ended in a tie 14-14.
Midwinter Drama
Twilight in February; lights snapping
on over the city. Snow falling, piling
in little drifts at the corners of the
buildings, swirling like icy pricks
around numb ankles. Backs turning
against the wind, faces bending down
into upturned collars—and over in the
midway district, ten people impatiently
waiting for an overdue street car. An
old man, leaning heavily on his cane,
eyes half closed against the cold; two
girls with scarlet lips and shining eyes,
swinging freshly sharpened skates; a
family of three discussing the ice pal-ace;
a thin little boy clinging tightly to
his father's hand; a gir land a boy talk-ing;
and a man cursing softly, examin-ing
his watch under the street light Just
an ordinary picture of a common oc-currence
on our city streets? Per-haps
.. .
But the tragedies of life happen so
quickly. Suddenly a thud, a woman's
unfinished scream, a screech of brakes,
and two silent crumpled forms on the
snowy street. People appearing from
out of nowhere, excited, questioning,
curious; ten people wondering how it
could have happened right before their
eyes without their knowing how. A
girl looking suddenly sick, turning
away; an old man trembling against his
cane; a little boy left standing bewild-ered
and alone, his father rushing to
help carry one of the still forms into a
drug store; and a little farther a young
man (pathetically young to carry such
a memory through life) stepping from
a car, following the grim procession
with terrified eyes, a million irrelevant,
frantic thoughts racing madly through
his mind.
A street car rumbling to a stop; ten
people getting on, a little subdued, a
little silent. But not for long. An old
man chuckling over an advertisement
in a discarded newspaper; a little boy
calling his father's attention to a shiny
sled in a passing store window; two
girls with scarlet lips and shining eyes,
laughing in anticipation; a family of
three disagreeing on the tons of ice in
the ice palace, a boy and a girl talking,
a man cursing softly, watching the
time—and death, stalking victoriously
through the streets of the city, awaiting
its next victim.

All hopes for a first division berth in
the final standings of the Southern
Minnesota Junior College Basketball
Conference have been wrecked for the
Red and White as a result of the three
straight losses which were inflicted up-on
them in the games played during
the past week. Coach Johnson's men
now have won three and lost four. Even
though they should win their final two
games—they can't hope to finish much
higher than the fourth place.
Waldorf Gains Revenge
On Saturday, December 6th, Wal-dorf
Junior College gained revenge for
the defeat Bethel handed them on their
own court in Forest City during Jan-uary,
by turning in a lop-sided 46-29
victory over the Red and White. The
visitors had a smooth passing array
which really went " to town" in the
second half after being held to a 5
point margin at the half. Don Ander-son,
Waldorf's flashy forward, was the
"big thorn in the flesh" for Bethel,
scoring no less than 22 points. For
Bethel, Ned Holmgren and Richert
looked the best.
Receive Second Defeat
Rochester Junior College, from Roch-ester,
Minnesota, gave Coach Johnson's
Team its second pasting in a row on
Friday, February 12th. The final score
was 49-32. As in the Waldorf game,
Bethel put a good fight in the first half
but then fell rapidly behind during the
rest of the game. Ned Holmgren play-ed
another nice game at guard for the
Red and White. Schultz was the big gun
in Rochester's offense with 9 field goals
and 2 free throws totaling 20 points.
Bow Twice to Comets
Concordia Junior College of St. Paul,
gained its second straight victory over
Bethel on Saturday, February 13, win-ning
by a score of 40-30 on their own
court. A big first half lead proved too
much of a handicap for the Red and
White to overcome even though they
outplayed their opponents in the second
half. Richert and Sorley led Bethel's
attack while Concordia's great center,
Mack, featured for the Comets.
"B" Team Wins Over Elim
The Bethel "B" team scored a victory
over the Elim Church team on Saturday
evening February 6. The final score
was 26-14.
Members of the "B" squad who rep-resented
Bethel were, E. Pieper, C. Per-sons,
A. Blomquist, D. Tanquist, C.

One certainty of life for mothers is this: The kids will be hungry at dinnertime and, well, probably before and after, too. Of course, mothers aren't the only ones who notice this. And we certainly don't want to leave dads out of the mealtime equation. But given that we're so near Mother's Day, we're shining the spotlight on her. She can share the pots-and-pans angst, or not.
Katie Workman is trying to take that stress out of the nightly ritual. She's the author of "The Mom 100 Cookbook: 100 Recipes Every Mom Needs in Her Back Pocket" (Workman, 366 pages, $16.95).
"We need to figure out how to capture some joy in the kitchen, because guess what? We get to make dinner just about every night! And we can approach this task as though we are being asked to regrout our bathtub nightly, or approach it with a certain amount of joie de vivre. We might as well pick that joie thing because ... we have to do it anyway," she notes in her delightfully opinionated book.
The mother of two sons, ages 10 and 13, thinks it's too easy to be hard on yourself as a cook, especially when you're a novice. "Give yourself a break. Dinner doesn't have to be perfect," said Workman in an interview.
"Set realistic, doable goals for yourself that make you feel great when you achieve them. Then you'll feel more like doing this again. Go for the easy wins and build on them," she said.
Like any cooking mom, she's busy. "No two dinner nights are alike. I made lasagna the night before. We're eating at 7 p.m. and it's lovely. But other times I'm peering into the pantry and it's a scramble. Or I might be looking at leftovers."
The difference between her kitchen and the empty one facing many of us?
"Even on nights when I'm scrambling, I have things ready," Workman said.
That means she preps for meals. And, yes, that means she's thinking ahead when she reaches for the food processor or a sharp knife on a Sunday afternoon and dices up onions, garlic and parsley she'll need during the week, peels carrots or readies other ingredients that she will undoubtedly use.
"Sometimes the simplest things will stop you when you're tired," she said. If the usual ingredients are ready, she can do a last-minute stir-fry, or make a soup or casserole.
And the best thing about cooking on a regular basis, well, beyond the very pleasurable meals and at least temporarily filled kids?
"You get comfortable with cooking. You understand how to make other dishes. You know that to make a soup, you sauté some member of the onion family, add some liquid and other ingredients, and that's it. There are no tricks," said Workman.
But to get to that comfort zone, you need to practice.
"I have some people saying to me, 'I really don't cook.' Or 'I'm a terrible cook.' For some, cooking dinner has become the enemy, too huge and overwhelming," said Workman.
Take a deep breath and reach for a recipe. "Find one," she said. "Buy the ingredients, follow the directions and make the recipe."
Workman, like so many others who prepare dinner, is a big fan of big-batch cooking. "If I make a meatloaf recipe that is just the right size, it's heartbreaking. If it feeds only the four of us, that's sad. I should make it to feed someone later in the week."
Maybe that means preparing a meat sauce to use for pasta one night and lasagna the next. Or a big pot of rice with extra to use for fried rice later in the week. If you're roasting a chicken, why not make two?
"I'm always thinking ahead. There are certain foods that you don't want a lot of, but plenty that can be repurposed," said Workman.
Even the experienced cook can pick up a tip or two from her. "We all get stuck in ruts. Maybe we're stuck in a flavor profile. If you've been cooking all Mediterranean flavors, pull out a Thai recipe. We all get palate fatigue. No matter how great your lasagna is, if you've been cooking Mediterranean for two weeks running, your family may like to try sesame noodles. Keep yourself fresh by jumping around from cuisine to cuisine.
And make the most of the seasons. "Grab those fiddlehead ferns you see at the farmers market. Take advantage of your skills as a cook."
Workman, of New York City, earned her author credentials as a cookbook editor for a dozen years; this is her first book, a practical guide to getting dinner on the table. Her past experience working with Pillsbury cookbooks in Minneapolis and as a founding editor-in-chief of Cookstr.com, an online collection of cookbook recipes, may have given her the credentials, but her kids gave her the best reason to write.
They were hungry.

When word came down on Dec. 28 that President Barack Obama had created a 1.35 million-acre national monument called Bears Ears, Jonah Yellowman celebrated. So did leaders of his Navajo people and other tribes that rarely have much to cheer about, such as the Hopi, Ute and Zuni.
Yet the festivities did not last long. Angered at Obama, Utah Gov. Gary Herbert and other Republicans quickly lobbied President Donald Trump to rescind or scale back the monument. For Yellowman, such a reversal would represent a historic betrayal. He and other activists have spent years trying to protect Bears Ears and its cliff dwellings and other antiquities.
"People are target shooting at our rock carvings," said Yellowman, a Navajo elder. "They are cutting out our pictographs, our stories, and taking them away and selling them."
Across the West and beyond, Native Americans are resisting the administration on multiple fronts. In North Dakota, two tribes have filed lawsuits against Trump's approval of the 1,172-mile-long Dakota Access pipeline, which skirts the Standing Rock reservation. Tribes are fighting oil and gas projects in Texas, Oklahoma and other states.
While Native Americans have long organized to counter perceived threats, Trump's election has made it "more visceral," said David Rich Lewis, a historian at Utah State University who specializes in tribal environmental issues.
Trump has a history of clashing with tribes over casinos and other developments. He also has vowed to open up more federal lands to energy development, including those in and around Indian Country. More recently, he has embraced as a hero former President Andrew Jackson, a leading advocate of "Indian removal" in the American West.
People are target shooting at our rock carvings. They are cutting out our pictographs, our stories, and taking them away and selling them.
Jonah Yellowman, Navajo elder
In Utah, Bears Ears is named for a pair of 8,700-foot-high buttes that rise from the Colorado Plateau. Spanning 2,100 square miles – an area larger than Delaware – the new national monument stretches from Canyonlands National Park in the north to the Navajo Nation in the south.
It's a remote and rugged landscape – "a milieu of the accessible and observable together with the inaccessible and hidden," as Obama said in a proclamation protecting the land. Hidden among these forests and red-rock canyons are thousands of documented archaeological sites, the remnants of early settlers in the area – the Ancient Puebloans, or Anasazi.
Several of these sites are visibly damaged. At the Wolf Panel, a wall of rock carvings on Comb Ridge, gun-toting visitors have used the panel for target practice. Pottery has been stolen from cliff dwellings. Elsewhere, the wood frames of old hogans – the traditional dwellings of nomadic Navajo – have been knocked down or hauled away for firewood.
"I don't know why someone would do something like that," Yellowman said during a recent visit to the remnants of old hogans. "Either they are being told to do it, or they don't care."
For tribal leaders, Obama's designation offered conservation protections and provided a political boost. Obama's proclamation, for the first time, grants authority to the tribes to co-manage a large national monument. "The tribes have never before gotten together to work on something like this," said Alfred Lomahquahu Jr., a vice chairman of the Hopi Tribe who calls the arrangement unprecedented.
Under the Antiquities Act, presidents hold the authority to establish national monuments to help preserve natural, cultural or scientific sites. Theodore Roosevelt signed the act into law in 1906 and was quickly the first president to use it – creating the Devils Tower National Monument in Wyoming and the 800,000-acre Grand Canyon national monument, which later became a national park.
Altogether, Obama established 29 national monuments during his two terms, a rebuff to a recalcitrant Congress. After the U.S. House of Representatives declined to act on public lands legislation to protect Bears Ears, Obama created the monument during his last weeks in office.
Acting on a petition by Indian tribes and their environmental supporters, Obama reduced the proposed size of the Bears Ears designation from 1.9 million acres to 1.35 million. But that didn't mollify critics such as U.S. Mike Lee, R-Utah, who immediately called it an "arrogant act by a lame-duck president." Gov. Herbert said he was deeply disappointed.
"It is the problem of someone unilaterally making a decision without taking into account the positions and concerns of local people," said Herbert in a recent interview with McClatchy.
For decades, Utah politicians have chafed over what they see as federal dominance of their home affairs. Federal lands make up two-thirds of Utah, which is home to five national parks, eight national monuments and 31 wilderness areas.
Some are still seething over President Bill Clinton's creation of the 1.9 million-acre Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in 1996. Critics say that, while drawing tourism dollars to the southeast part of Utah, such expansive designations deprive the state of potential revenue from mining and energy development, generally prohibited in national monuments.
Under Obama's directive, Bears Ears would be off limits to new mining and oil and gas drilling, but ranchers could continue to lease land for livestock grazing. One of those ranchers is Sandy Johnson, whose family has raised cattle since 1920 in and around Fry Canyon, an isolated stretch of the new monument.
With a weathered face and hands calloused by decades of rope handling, Johnson and his family graze roughly 330 cattle on an allotment of 350,000 acres. Each year is a crap shoot, with the weather and rainfall dictating what kind of grass will be available for feed. Every spring, he and his son Preston mount their horses and drive the cattle from the lower country to the high pastures west of Bears Ears. In the fall, they move them down the mountain and sell the calves for their yearly income.
Federal officials have told Johnson that, with the new monument, his family will be able to continue ranching as they have for decades. He doubts those promises will stand the test of time.
"They can say all they want, but once that land is put in a monument, they are going to restrict it down," he said, sitting at his kitchen table at the family's home in Fry Canyon. "Soon it will be off limits for me, the four-wheelers, the miners, everybody."
They can say all they want, but once that land is put in a monument, they are going to restrict it down.
Sandy Johnson, local rancher
Like many opponents of Obama's action, Johnson and his wife, Gail, blame the new monument on "outside environmentalists" that have used Native Americans as "front groups." As Trump supporters, the Johnsons hope the new president will roll back the monument designation.
The ranching couple also dismiss claims that Bears Ears is a sacred site for local tribes. "The last two years they've had a gathering up there, and that is the only time we've seen them up there," said Sandy Johnson.
"That is a myth," responded Lomahquahu. He and others say monument opponents are engaged in a strategy to delegitimize Native American interests, part of a pattern that dates to frontier days.
"The tribes have been going up to Bears Ears before the Mormons arrived 150 years ago," Lomahquahu said while attending a recent conservation gathering in Bluff, Utah. Native Americans still hold ceremonies in the Bears Ears area, he added, "but we don't show those to outsiders."
The Ute Mountain Ute Tribe is one with close ties to Bears Ears. The tribe, once spread across eastern Utah and western Colorado, left behind rock carvings and artifacts before federal troops forcibly moved the tribe to reservations, including one in southwestern Colorado.
Along with the Navajo, the Ute have a special reverence for bears, often referring to them as "grandfather." In the local folklore, Bears Ears was the place where the bruins first came out of hibernation each year.
"Right after the spring is the most beautiful time to go up there, with all the flowers blooming," said Mary Jane Yazzie, a Ute elder. She has a view of Bears Ears from her modest home in White Mesa, east of the monument, and still visits the high country for ceremonies and relaxation.
According to Lomahquahu and others, the origins of the monument campaign came in 2010, when former Sen. Rob Bennett, R-Utah, announced an initiative to settle local public-lands disputes. Bennett asked the tribes to offer input, but before he could turn his proposal into legislation, he lost his primary bid and was replaced by Lee.
By 2014, advocates say, they had given up on congressional efforts to protect Bears Ears as part of a wider deal on Utah public lands. Two conservation groups, Friends of Cedar Mesa and Utah Dine Bikeyah, then urged tribal leaders to come together as a coalition to seek monument status. "What they realized is that the tribes themselves have the ability to speak directly to the federal government," said Lomahquahu, referring to tribal law.
Yazzie, the Ute elder, chuckled when asked whether she had been "bought off" by environmental groups, as opponents claim. "Where is the money?" she laughed, gesturing toward her dilapidated home and dusty yard.
Yazzie said she had decided to join the campaign – as well as Dine Bikeyah's board – for several reasons, not just conservation concerns. She hoped that by being at the table, she could help elevate the voices of her people on a range of local issues. "All Native Americans have ties with each other and ties to the land," she said, adding that she feels a kinship with tribes fighting the Dakota Access pipeline and other energy projects.
The Bears Ears designation without doubt has widened divisions in San Juan County – a rural county with a history of racial tension. As of the 2010 census, more than 50 percent of the population was Native American, but all local commissions were controlled by whites. In 2016, a federal district court struck down the county's practice of mapping all Navajo voters into a single district, calling it "racial gerrymandering."
According to Yazzie, a retired schoolteacher, Native American children continue to face bigotry in public schools.
Not all the county's Native Americans support the monument, just as not all non-natives oppose it. But the battle lines are at least partially racial. In 2014, San Juan County Commissioner Phil Lyman defied federal warnings and led a rally of all-terrain vehicles into Recapture Wash, which had been closed to vehicular traffic to protect Native American artifacts. Lyman was accompanied by armed militiamen, adding to fears that local public-lands disputes could eventually turn violent.
Lyman spent 10 days in jail for defying federal authorities, but he remains on the county commission and is active in lobbying against Bears Ears. At a recent meeting, he expressed hope that U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz, a Republican who represents the area, could help roll back the monument designation.
"It's amazing that we have the chairman of the House oversight committee," said Lyman. "He's our congressman and he's a real advocate."
Lomahquahu said he and other tribal leaders were bracing for a legal fight, and were networking with their allies. National environmental groups such as the Wilderness Society and Conservation Lands Foundation are lending assistance. In January, actor Leonardo DiCaprio joined with other philanthropies to pledge $1.5 million for the monument, which is likely to receive few if any federal funds to manage it.
"There are a whole slew of people behind us," said Lomahquahu. "That is going to make it very difficult for Trump or anyone else."
CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story gave the wrong party affiliation for former Sen. Rob Bennett of Utah. He is a Republican.
