CIA Impinges On Music Department
Reported Subsidy of European Tour
The St. Paul City Park Board
has announced recently its inten-tion
to relocate the Como Park
Zoo to the future Arden Hills cam-pus
of Bethel College. The move
is expected to begin in June, being
completed by mid-Septmber.
According to Park Commissioner,
Henry Rosenblaum, the Park Board
has been considering for some time
the relocation of the Como Zoo
for numerous reasons. Lack of
space and proper sanitary facili-ties
as well as antiquated housing
arrangements for the animals are
regarded as primary. Also noted
was the fact that the barking of
the seals disturbed the quietness
of the residential area surrounding
the present location.
The anticipated move to the fu-ture
Bethel campus in the northern
St. Paul suburb came after con-siderable
deliberation and consul-tation
with school officials.
Mr. Rosenblaum cited a number
of advantages to be construed from
such an arrangement with both the
college and the zoo reaping the
results. Moving to Arden Hills
will benefit the zoo by providing
the most modern facilities for ani-mal
care and husbandry as well
as providing a spacious environ-men.
In as much as it is possible, it is
hoped that the animals may be
set in their original habitat
throughout the campus. "This will
make for more 'homey' conditions"
said Rosenblaum, "as far as the
animals are concerned, and will
also benefit the zoo visitors by al-,
lowing them to view the creatures
as Mother Nature intended."
The college stands to benefit
tremendously from such a planned
venture. The Psychology Depart-ment
will have a bounty of experi-mental
animals to draw from for
its research. According to Depart-ment
Head, Dr. Gary Collins, the
department is also excited about
the possibilities of "jazzing up"
its curricular offerings with reflex
and operant conditioning experi-
The infiltration of educational
institutions by the Central Intel-ligence
Agency has not been limit-ed
to Michigan State University
and the National Student Associ-ation.
Recent investigation has al-legedly
disclosed that certain Beth.,
el departments are also on the
receiving end of CIA conduits.
The primary recipient of this
secret federal aid has been the
College Choir. A report has cir-culated
among many of the choir
members that a European tour is
being planned for the summer of.
1968. But neither of the choir
members interviewed for this ar-ticle
knew the financial source for
this trip. The CARRION has learn-ed
from reliable sources that the
finances are coming through a desk
drawer foundation known as the
Berg R. Lind Foundation for Desti-tute
Choral Groups and the Pro-motion
of "Our" Kind of Music.
The secretive financing was re-portedly
arranged by Dr. Wallace
Anderson during his recent stay
as Assistant Dean of Students. Dr.
partment also expressed his en-thusiasm
for the zoo relocation.
"It is just wonderful. It will give
students a first hand chance to see
God's wonderful creation as he in-tended.
We are planning many.
many biology field trips to get
students to appreciate Nature."
In order that the transfer of the
Como Zoo from its present location
to Arden Hills can be effected ef-ficiently,
the St. Paul Park Board
has offered men from Bethel the
opportunity for summer employ-ment
caring for the animals.
Pay will start at $3.07 per hour
beginning June 5, continuing
through Labor Day. Said Commis-sioner
Rosenblaum, "We want merl
who aren't afraid to get their hands
dirty." Arrangements for employ-ment
may be made through the
Bethel Employment Office by con-tacting
Bill Ledkins.
Anderson refused to answer tele--
phoned questions but defended his
part in the arrangements as the
continuation "of a long standing
policy of cooperation with the gov-ernment."
He implied that this was
simply another in a series of con-tacts
the choir has had with the
CIA over a period of several years.
The Ramparts "flap" about NSA
has brought on a withdrawal of
the CIA from educational funding.
This coincides with reliable reports
that choir students will pay the
greater share of the expense of
the European trip. Prior to the
public furor over Ramparts esti-mates
of tour expense to students
circulated which placed the cost
as low as $150.
While on choir tour Robert
Mounce and Robert Berglund were
entrusted with some $1,500 and
were instructed to use this as prin-cipal
for winning funds slated for
the new campus. Under the new
regime of UMC apparently this
kind of investment is considered
legal, says President Lundquist.
The two faculty men apparent-ly
used the bulk of the $1,500 in
Big Bertha, a one-dollar-a-time
slot machine. Doctor Berglund stat-ed
that the machine returned to
them winnings on three occas-sions,
one dollar on each return.
He went on to say that apparently
all three were illegal slugs as the
slot machine refused to reaccept
Dr. Mounce went on to com-ment
that the slot machines were
almost as risky as the food dis-pensers
in the Coffeeshop area.
Faculty Men Plot
Sinister Escapade
The CARRION has received word
from reliable sources that the fa-culty
men are planning a panty
raid on Bodein and Hagstrom some-time
in the near future.
Dr. Collins has hatched a plan
whereby his experimental mice
will be released into the dorms.
In the pandemonium which will
inevitably ensue, the faculty men,
led by Lloyd Rekstad, will enter
the rooms via the clothes chutes.
Owen Halleen has reportedly kept
Mrs. Williams in the dark about
this plan, as he dreads the prospect
of mimeographing a directive on
staff social conduct on campus.
Other sources have it that Mrs.
Williams would oppose the plan if
she had any inkling of it.
The plan is being executed with
the help of Eric, as he is said to
know all the ins and outs of the
The plans were conceived joint-ly
by Dr. Butler and Dr. Collins.
Dr. Collins wishes to observe mass
reaction to his mice, and Dr. But
ler is conducting the experiment
in conjunction with his situation
ethics class.
Sources say the faculty have
made no plans for their loot.
Observers predict that this figure
will more than double as the CIA
withdraws its support.
A related piece of evidence which
has come to light is the discovery
of a veritable colony of ex-choir,
members (as well as Dr. Anderson)
in the Denver and Greeley, Colo-rado
area. CARRION contacts in
the area are investigating CSC
(Colorado State College) as a pos-sible
CIA training center. One po-tentially
fruitful hypothesis sug-gests
that the CIA especially val-ues
musicians for their tremen-dous
ability to find and put more
meaning into notes — diplomatic
and otherwise — than others ever
imagine themselves capable of im-agining.
Dr. Lundquist concurs with Dr.
Mounce at this point, apparently
it was for this reason that Pres.
Lundquist withheld the investment
principal in the face of pressure
from the Vendall Company and
Margaret Anderson (who allegedly
gets a cut on earnings from Ven-dall).
Having frittered away the $1,500,
Drs. Mounce and Berglund had re-tired
to the pancake lounge for
repast, when the two were paiged
over the intercom system. The
President was cut off the phone
for a minute as Dr. Mounce was
indiscriminately inserting quarters
and dimes into the telephone in
hopes of some returns. Dr. Berg-lund
was seen to whisper into Dr.
Mounce's ear that the telephone
was not a slot machine.
Dr. Mounce suggested to the
President in their conversation
that they pawn off the two busses.
This last resort was squelched as
none of the pawn shops were open
at that early hour.

Your Guess Is As Good As Mine—Robert Muntz
This recently released book by our own Dr. Muntz
takes the "good guess" approach to probably the most
obscure book in Scripture. Dr. Muntz thoroughly ex-egetes
the original Sanskrit and Egyptian texts in an
effort to determine the true nature of the book from
all angles.
Muntz persuasively concludes that Revelation was
not written by John as most scholars believe but that it
is actually a contemporary forgery slipped into the
canon by Muhammed Ali and Lee Harvey Oswald hav-ing
been composed in a small garret in Toledo.
Revelation gains its theological and eschatelogical
significance via a type of symbolic osmosis with re-spect
to the rest of Scripture. Muntz feels the book of
Revelation is as valid as any other eschatology since,
as he says in his book, "Who can know very much
about the future anyway?" or in another place "Que
sera sera!"
Especially fascinating is Muntz's breakdown of
the "last days." Muntz discards traditional views of
the second coming for the theory that Christ has
already come and is alive and well in Argentina. The
millenium has been ushered in with the mini-skirt and
the final holocaust is not apt to take place during his
(Muntz's) lifetime so he does not care too much about
Muntz discredits traditional analysis of the num-erical
symbols in Revelation and adopts the view that
every number is in fact a coded word on the formula
x(y-65.7)-n. By this formula the number of the Beast,
666 is rendered in its decoded form as "flg," and
144000 emerges as "zmphlgp."
In addition to the numerical symbols Muntz does
some very interesting things with the pictorial images.
He has taken these images and drawn them exactly
as they are described in context. Oddly enough the
majority of these line drawings vaguely resemble
automobiles with shiny headlights and discounted
price tags. This in fact is the only outrageously in-congruous
aspect of a work by a man who has de-voted
a lifetime to Biblical studies.
All in all, Muntz's book is great fare for all
concerned with a new and fresh approach to Revela-tion.
It is concise (1047 pages) and pertinent (only 14
full color pictures of the author). I recommend it.

Resolves In Meetings
the CARRION Monday, May 1, 1967
Dear fellow students, stop and leave him in the girls
I would like to take these few
lines to inform my fellow Bethel-ites
what our wonderful choir
group has done on their "good
will" tour to California.
Tuesday evening, March 28, I re-ceived
a long distance telephone
call from my dear friend, Roger
Johnson. Roger, who served as road
manager on the California choir
tour, calling from San Jose, Cali-fornia.
What he had to say may
startle many disillusioned readers.
In the following paragraphs I will
attempt to accurately describe what
really happened during this tour.
Before dusk had set on March
23, the day the choir departed from
the Twin Cities, rumors were be-ginning
to spread on the two choir
buses. The male bass members of
the choir were secretly planning to
jump Dr. Berglund at the next bus
Recent experimentation in the
Bethel Physiology Department has
found the caffein in coffee to be
implicated with the production of
cancer, according to Mr. Jack Buss,
Instructor in Biology.
Using white rats as experimental
animals it was found that when a
small portion of the isolated caf-fein
was applied to a shaven area
of sensitive skin on the body of
the white rat, a malignant tumor
developed within a matter of 24
hours. All rats developing the tum-or
died within seven days after
the application of the caffein ex-tract.
Further investigations revealed
that when the caffein was injected
into the rats' stomachs tumorous
growths soon spread throughout
the abdomen and viscera producing
similar tragic results.
Although final conclusions can-not
be made at present since re-search
is still being conducted, Mr.
Buss did comment that if further
investigations do confirm his pres-ent
hypothesis that the caffein in
coffee does indeed produce a lethal
form of cancer, he will recommend
lavatory hogtied and gagged!
Roger began to take action by
instructing the girls to make the
boys change their mind concerning
this endeavor. Nothing worked.
The buses left the bus stop minus
Dr. Berglund. Roger regained com-posure
temporarily only to ,be met
by another defeat at the hands of
the choir. Against his commands
the choir members began holding
hands. As Roger had anticipated,
they were soon kissing each other
—right on the lips.
Roger was ticked, mainly because
he did not have a partner. The
next day Roger called the pastor
at the church where they were
scheduled to sing that evening.
Roger explained that the choir's
lips were too swollen to sing that
night (because of the previous
night's all-night makeout) but that
they could take time to stop at the
the matter for a Surgeon General's
Local W C T U representatives
view the experiments with great
interest and are thinking of start-ing
a new campaign against coffee
houses. Their motto is reported to
be "Make Mine Sanka."
Rocks Students
A terse announcement from the
Dean's office implicated 41 stu-dents
in a Lenten season drinking
scandal. Details were not revealed,
but it is believed the announce-ment
stemmed from the participa-tion
of the students in a commun-ion
service where alcoholic wine
was served.
Dorm counselors and members
of the religious committee are
among those involved. A further
release from upstairs is expected
to seal the doom of the entire 41.
Any others who have engaged in
similar activity this semester are .
asked to turn themselves in before
church to eat the dinners which
were to be prepared for them. The
pastor consented to this proposal.
Shortly after the buses crossed
the California border two days lat-er,
the choir members began to
go their separate ways. Three ten-ors
headed for Las Vegas, four
first sopronas hopped a freight
train to Vancouver, B.C., and one
alto, Roger Swanson, stayed near
the border to bird watch.
Once again against Roger John-son's
wishes, the buses by-passed
their scheduled church stops and
headed directly for Santa Cruz.
They wanted to find the "cool surf-ing
action", as they called it. After
a relatively short 8 hour drive from
the California border, the buses
entered into the hallowed surfer
town, Santa Cruz.
It might be mentioned that the
first girls to find "surf buddies"
(or more commonly called boy
friends), were the blonde second
sopranos. Within a few minutes,
however, everyone was paired with
the person of their choosing. At
this juncture, Roger, who was pair-ed
with an old piece of drift wood,
decided to throw in the towel. He
later called me and divulged this
information to me. I felt a burden
on my heart to share this with the
student body.

Our motto—Report the News,
Give the Views, fastest, bestest,

The writers wish to withhold
their names in the interest of
preserving Administration and
Faculty standing in the minds
of students.
All subscribers are insane.
Opinions expressed in the
CARRION are the only
official view.
Perhaps the most serious problem facing the Bethel family
is the increasing alienation from its constituents, and as every-one
knows, such trends can lead to critical misunderstandings.
Though the horizon of answers is initially bleak, there is
a bright spot. The only answer to the problem is staging Found-er's
Week every week of the school year. The advantages of
this are overwhelming.
Prime advantage of this would be the improvement of the
menu at the Bethel cafeteria.
Another distinct advantage of this program would be the
increased numbers in chapel. There really should be fewer
empty bleachers during chapel and this offers a viable solution
to the depressing emptiness creeping into our daily devotional
gathering together.
It will be obvious to any concerned member of the acmpus
that there are simply too few people in front of the P.O.s
following chapel. To those who look forward to this important
facet of their social lives, the disenchantment of students
with empty P.O.s is a discouraging symptom in campus life.
The intellectual atmosphere of the school has seen a mark-ed
decline since the departure of the Founder's Week dele-gates.
To maintain the sharp scholarly nature of classes a re-turn
of the delegates is necessary to revitalize the sagging
progress of classes.
Especially in the Spring time, students should have fewer
classes during the day to contemplate the amazing changes
transpiring on our campus and the interesting phenomenon
appearing on our campus now that Spring is here.
We don't know how the above evidence warrants our ini-tial
statement, but as we always say, FOUNDER'S WEEK MUST
CIA Penetrates P.E. Department
Bethel Faces Severe Punishment
by 0. Henry
Advanced investigation concern-ing
CIA aid to music organizations
on campus has also implicated the
Physical Education Department.
Apparently some of the money has
been channelled into an illegal fund
benefiting needy athletes.
Revelation of t h e under-the-table
aid was closely correlated
with the appearace of several red
faces and consequent coining of the
term "Blush Fund." Head of the in-vestigating
team, Conn Vickt, an-nounced
that although the amount
of aid was not mountainous, the
Bethel family probably will be
prosecuted severely to serve as an
example to the hundreds of sister
institutions throughout the coun-try.
Whether the prosecution will in-clude
the dismissal of present
Royal coaches is still the subject of
speculation. However, one cannot
overlook the relatively recent de-partures
of Jerry Healy and David
Cox. Healy is supposedly on sab-batical
leave, whereas Cox decided
to pursue further studies. The
question arises: Was the departure
of these two men prompted by
reasons other than the aforemen-tioned?
In addition one might note sev-eral
other cases involving depart
tures. First, former football coach
and P.E. instructor, Dean Hallen,
is leaving at the close of the sem-ester.
Dean Webster Muck, whose
son Terry is a fine athlete here at
Bethel, is also leaving for a year.
Former Assistant Dean, import,
and "friend of the athletes," Wally
Anderson has already left-and in
a somewhat rushed, red-faced man-ner.
The only remaining Dean,
Catherine Williams, was available
for comment concerning her col-leagues.
Her comment was "No
comment," and implied that she
couldn't be "Gladder shielding the

quarters are completed for them in
Lake Valentine, these deep sea
treasures will be stored at UCLA's

Scientists, bath American and
foreign, have inspected and tested
various aspects of the lake and
surrounding terrain. These men
have been unanimous in their opin-ion
that Lake Valentine is unique-ly
suited for this installation, and
the evaluation of scientific data
has supported them.
Reasons for this include water
depth, type of bottom, sheltering
geographical features, and numer-ous
technical aspects. These qual-ities

that something is going on.
There is some kind of sinister un-dertow

macabre scandal.

the Hags' bid for revenge was
skillfully aborted by the gang's
stalwart defense. The Hags' and
Bod's (Hagstrom's and Bodiens')
crack at the boys' impregnable
bastion completely miscarried as
the boys organized their retaliatory
offensive. The brilliant excellence
of Edgren's warriors turned the
girls' puerile efforts into a debacle
analogous to the 1961 Bay of Pigs
fiasco in more ways than one.

The unprecedented "tract team trek" announced over
spring vacation could well be a monumental milestone in Bethel
history. Two well-known VIPs from the Physical Education De-partment,
Gene Glader and "Mo" Shields will head the expe-dition.
Plans for the extensive trek were finalized in an emotion
packed session of the Religious Committee on March 22, follow-ing
that day's missionary offering. Acknowledgement of the
fact that this offering is running betwen ten to eighty-five per-cent
below expectations precipitated the decision to scrap the
student missionary project in favor of the "tract team trek."
The group will embark on the trip early in June. Remote
jungle areas in inner Africa are tentatively ticketed for the
main thrust of the drive, with other locations to be considered
as funds allow. Early plans call for Department head Gene
Glader to lead a ground crew, while Coach Shields supervises
other details in the plane which will folow the movements of
the ground crew. The party will only travel on unclouded days
when the glare off the miniature Sahara atop Coach Glader's
head enables the aircraft to keep sight of the ground men. Al-though
the main emphasis of the trek is to be placed on tract
distribution, the coaches will, I repeat, will do some recruiting.
Rumor has it that the Women's PE brass also is seeking
a role in this undertaking. Both Miss Starr and Miss Anderson
reportedly are in the process of obtaining Russian visas. Be-cause
of the acute financial shortage, this poses a weighty
problem. Deliberations on the distribution of the funds has of
yet proved unfruitful in determining any scale to work with.
Glader and Shields will attempt to avoid the fate of an
earlier, unpublicized jungle jaunt engineered by former wrest-ling
coach Dan Phelps in the summer of 1965. Phelps returned
from the expedition with four gorillas, including a promising
560 pound heavyweight.
The muscular hopefuls had some difficulty, however, in
meeting entrance requirements. None had high school tran-scripts,
and they encountered some trouble with their college
boards. In fact, a shaggy 167 pounder used the wrong end of
his pencil when he took the SAT and unwittingly defaced the
answer sheet. When it went through the computer it jammed,
resulting in a negative score.
As you may have guessed by now, this recruiting venture
finally ended in failure. Three of the four prospects failed to
meet entrance requirements. The fourth died after two weeks
on the meal plan.

- "Territory dominated by Latin American street gangs. Until recently, the activity of these gangs was thought to be limited to minor narcotics offenses and petty car crime."
- — GTA III Website.
Hepburn Heights is a district in Portland, Liberty City as depicted in Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto Advance and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories. Also, a small section of the district appears in The Introduction in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The district is bordered by Harwood to the north, the Red Light District to the south, Saint Mark's to the east, and an unnamed body of water to the west.
As of the timeline of GTA III, in 2001, Hepburn Heights is primarily a set of two housing projects containing several apartment towers (two four-pointed towers on the western block, and two four-pointed towers and a five-pointed tower on the eastern block). The district also encompasses a lush ridge to the east, and a waterfront promenade to the west that overlooks Staunton Island. The area has a high-crime rate, as gang members of the Diablos, prostitutes and street-criminal pedestrians commonly spawn. It is not uncommon to see fist-fights and carjackings in the area. In GTA Liberty City Stories, set in 1998, the five-pointed tower is under construction, but the district remains largely unchanged otherwise.
Real Life Influence
Hepburn Heights is based in the Queensbridge projects, because it seems quite, but also resembles to Brownsville and Brooklyn Heights.
Gang control
In Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto Advance and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, it has been under the control of many different gangs. It is implied that in GTA Liberty City Stories that the Leone Family once controlled Hepburn Heights with an iron fist, but due to the Sindacco Family wanting to expand their influence in the city, the Leone Family began losing to the Sindacco Family. Once the Sindaccos were kicked off the island, the Diablos street gang, backed by the Sicilian Mafia, began an outright onslaught which was defeated by Leone Caporegime Toni Cipriani, but he did not believe that the Leone Family would be able to hold on to this part of town for very much longer. During 2000, Hepburn Heights is taken over by the Yakuza and the Diablos are moved to Harwood. It is possible that the Yakuza took over the district as a revenge for the Diablos not paying their protection money. By 2001, the setting of GTA III, Toni was proven to be right, as the Diablos had taken over Hepburn Heights, with the Yakuza having no influence in Portland at all, and the Leone's staying in Saint Mark's. However, near the border between the two districts, it is common place to find the two gangs warring, with the Leone's mainly winning, due to their heavier weaponry.
Notable Residents
Places of interest
The district is also a the location for a stop along the elevated Portland El train service, dubbed as the "Rothwell Station" in GTA Liberty City Stories. The station is located on the northeastern end of the district.
In Grand Theft Auto III, Claude receives missions given by El Burro by means of a public telephone located in front of Misty's apartment. In Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories (set 3 years earlier) the phones are present, but inactive.
- If the player leaves the Portland safehouse and goes to the housing projects across the north corner, house music can be heard playing from two of the apartments and you can hear moans and a man complaining from Misty's apartment block. One of the house music loops seems to be "Took My Love" by Bizzare Inc.

Russian 'arms' ship turns back from Syria, UK says
Date created : Latest update :
A cargo ship reportedly carrying arms to Syria has apparently turned back towards Russia, Britain's Foreign Secretary William Hague said on Tuesday, following upon calls for a halt in all weapons shipments to the conflict-torn country.
REUTERS - A cargo ship off the British coast carrying weapons bound for Syria has apparently turned back towards Russia, Britain's Foreign Secretary said on Tuesday, calling again for a halt to arms shipments to President Bashar al-Assad.
The Curacao-flagged cargo ship Alaed, last seen off the north-west coast of Scotland this week, was believed to carrying Russian weaponry to Syria, according to an insurer which said it had withdrawn coverage for the vessel.
Britain's Foreign Office had said earlier it was aware of a consignment of refurbished Russian-made attack helicopters heading for Syria, but did not say if it was referring to the same vessel.
"I am pleased that the ship that was reported to be carrying arms to Syria has now turned back apparently towards Russia," British Foreign Secretary William Hague told parliament.
"We have in place a European Union arms embargo on Syria. We discourage anyone else from supplying arms to Syria. We have had discussions with Russia about that specifically."
Russia has faced increasing Western criticism over arms supplies to Syria, where the United Nations says government forces have killed more than 10,000 people in a crackdown. Last month, the U.S. described the delivery of heavy Russian weapons in a shipment as "reprehensible".
Ship tracking data showed on Tuesday that the Alaed set off from the Russian port of Baltiisk in the Baltic province of Kaliningrad on June 11.
London-headquartered ship insurer Standard Club said it had been contacted about the vessel it had been covering, but did not say by whom.
"We were made aware of the allegations that the Alaed was carrying munitions destined for Syria and have already informed the ship owner that their insurance cover ceased automatically in view of the nature of the voyage," the insurer said.
Moscow-based Russian ship management and operator group Femco, operating the Alaed, offered no comment when contacted several times by Reuters about the ship and its cargo. But it said it would post comment on its website later on Tuesday with "true information".
Insurers would be obliged to withdraw coverage for any shipments violating European Union sanctions, including an arms embargo on Syria. Without insurance, the vessel could be forced either to dock at a port, drop its run to Syria or find a provider outside the European Union.
The Alaed was last seen off the coast of Scotland and declared as heading for the Russian port of Vladivostok where it was due to arrive on July 24, according to tracking data.
A Moscow-based defence analyst said the Alaed was carrying helicopters that were bought by Syria during the Soviet era and had been sent back to Russia for repair in the Baltic Sea exclave of Kaliningrad.
"I am sure based on open source material that the ship is carrying 12-15 helicopters that were repaired in Kaliningrad and are on their way to Syria," said Ruslan Aliyev, who works at defence think tank CAST, referring to an order of Mi-25 helicopters.
"They were old helicopters bought by (Assad's late father and predecessor) Hafez al-Assad, I believe at the end of the 1980s."
Shipment halt urged
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on June 12 that the United States was "concerned about the latest information we have that there are attack helicopters on the way from Russia to Syria." She said such a sale "will escalate the conflict quite dramatically."
The accusation angered Moscow, which says it is fulfilling existing contracts for air defence systems, for use against external attacks, and not delivering offensive weapons. Under pressure over continuing arms trade with Syria, President Vladimir Putin said earlier this month that the weapons its sends could not be used in civil conflicts.
The Russian Foreign Ministry said last week that Russia had sent no new helicopters to Syria but had repaired helicopters delivered to its government "many years ago". It gave no specifics about when any helicopters were repaired or sent back to Syria.
A source close to Russia's arms exporting monopoly Rosoboronexport said last week that Clinton may have been referring to helicopters that were sent to Russia in 2009 for repairs and may have been on the way back to Syria.
The source said at least nine Mi-25 helicopters were sent to Kaliningrad to be repaired by Oboronservis, owned by the Defence Ministry.
A rights group reported that the Professor Katsman ship had docked at the Syrian port of Tartous last month with a cache of heavy weapons for Assad.

ST. LOUIS – The St. Louis Cardinals announced today they have made a waiver claim, acquiring outfielder Rafael Ortega, after he was designated for assignment by the Texas Rangers on December 30, 2013.
Ortega, a 22-year old native of El Tigre, Venezuela, was originally signed as a non-drafted free agent by the Colorado Rockies in 2008. He played five seasons in the Rockies system before making his Major League debut, a promotion from Single-A Modesto in the California League to Colorado, on Sept. 30, 2012, starting in centerfield and going 2-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base at Dodger Stadium. He would appear in one more game in 2012 before the season concluded.
The left-handed hitting outfielder played 42 games for the Rockies Double-A affiliate in Tulsa in 2013, batting .228 with a home run, 10 RBI and was 9-for-13 in stolen base attempts before a leg injury in late June ended his season.
Ortega played in 462 career minor league games batting .298 with 26 home runs and 231 RBI while stealing 156 bases.
He was claimed off waivers by the Texas Rangers from the Rockies on November 27, 2013, before getting placed on waivers again last Monday.
The Cardinals roster stands at 39 following today's transaction.

African WCQ round-up
Benin produced the shock result of Sunday's African World Cup qualifiers as they beat Mali 1-0 in Group H.
Last Updated: 03/06/12 9:15pm
Benin produced the shock result of Sunday's African World Cup qualifiers as they beat Mali 1-0 in Group H.
Mali, at 39th in the world, were the highest-ranked team in action, but they were upset by the 124th-ranked Benin thanks to Razak Omotoyossi's 18th minute goal at the Stade de l'Amitie.
Nigeria opened their Group F campaign with a hard-fought win over Namibia.
John Utaka's first-half strike was disallowed and it looked as though the Super Eagles would have nothing to show for their dominance of the game, but Ikechukwu Uche popped up with a deserved winner 10 minutes from time.
The 2010 World Cup hosts South Africa had to come from behind to earn a point against Ethiopia in Group A.
Said Saladin put the underdogs ahead on the half-hour mark, but Katlego Mphela saved Bafana Bafana's blushes with a 77th minute equaliser.
Angola were also denied maximum points by Uganda, who grabbed a dramatic, late equaliser in the Group J clash at the Cidadela.
Emmanuel Okwi was Uganda's hero, snatching a point after the hosts had led for 80 minutes through Djalma Campos' eighth minute goal.
Ibrahima Traore scored the only goal as Guinea scraped to victory over Zimbabwe in Harare in Group G.
Group E remains all square across the board after Gabon were held to a goalless draw in Niger, matching Saturday's scoreline between Burkina Faso and Congo.
Togo and Libya drew 1-1 in Group I. Kalen Damessi gave Togo a 14th minute lead but Ahmed Zouay equalised within a minute.

Source: National Milk Producers Federation
The National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF) has released a newly-revised animal care reference manual, containing the guidelines that comprise the core of the National Dairy FARM (Farmers Assuring Responsible Management) Program.
"This new manual reflects the continuous improvement process that is a hallmark of the FARM program," said Jim Mulhern, Chief Operating Officer of NMPF. "It contains important revisions from the first manual, and it reflects both evolving management practices on the farm, as well as expectations for animal care from the entire dairy value chain."
The FARM Program was created four years ago to establish a national, voluntary dairy animal care program to bring consistency and uniformity to the practices used on America's dairy farms. The original reference manual was used to guide animal care practices on farms that have enrolled in the program since 2009; this new manual will now be provided to those both currently enrolled, and those who will become part of the program going forward.
A variety of industry stakeholders provided input into the revision process, Mulhern said, and the end result includes findings from the third-party verification process that began in 2011. Among the improvements in the new manual is the overall checklist used to evaluate farms has been streamlined from 77 questions to 48, "simplifying the process for farmers, and more effectively capturing the pertinent information that animal care experts believe is relevant to proper dairy animal care," Mulhern said.
In addition to the streamlined on-farm evaluation process, key areas of change in the areas of medical procedures, animal observations and housing include:
Medical Procedures:
• A guideline on horn disbudding was added: Calves are disbudded at eight weeks of age or earlier and with appropriate use of analgesics and/or anesthetics.
• Language was added to identify some best practices for disbudding, castration and extra teat removal.
• Information is provided on proper branding techniques, as some states require this for animal ID.
• Language was added encouraging the elimination of routine tail docking by 2022.
Animal Observations:
• The hygiene guideline remains the same based on data collected by the FARM program. The locomotion guideline was changed to only score milking and dry cows. Two other guidelines were added to document practices in place to improve lameness.
• The body condition score guideline was reduced to 1 percent of all animals in all pens from 10 percent because the FARM data showed that almost 98 percent of the farms in the program met this guideline. A second guideline was added to document practices are in place to improve an animal with poor condition.
• The hock and knee lesion guideline was changed to score only the milking and dry cows. All experts agreed and the FARM data showed that this is the most high risk group on the farm for this type of injury.
• A body abrasion section was added to allow for the collection of data on other body abrasions, besides knees and hocks, looking at all the animals on the farm. The FARM program will review the data collected after three years and decide if a guideline for body abrasions needs to be developed. The scoring system will target animals with an obvious swelling, lacerations or severe lesions of the skin.
• The housing section was streamlined to remove the separate section on housing types and creating guidelines that can be utilized for all systems by referring to lying areas.
Other areas such as feed and water have also been streamlined in this manner to make the evaluation more effective.
The new manual can be found online at www.nationaldairyfarm.com.To order hard copies of the FARM Animal Care Reference Manual or the FARM Quick Reference User Guide, fill out the order formthat can be found on the FARM website. The new guidelines will be implemented in the on-farm evaluation process later this summer.
The National Dairy FARM program currently has participant farms producing 70% of the nation's milk supply, through 52 cooperatives and proprietary processors. More than 8,000 on-farm evaluations have been completed.
The National Milk Producers Federation, based in Arlington, VA, develops and carries out policies that advance the well-being of dairy producers and the cooperatives they own.

text: The Wallabies must win the return game at Eden Park in Auckland next week to keep alive any hopes of breaking New Zealand's 10-year Cup dynasty [GALLO/GETTY]New Zealand landed an early blow in the battle for the inaugural Rugby Championship when they beat Australia 27-19 on Saturday to maintain their iron grip on the Bledisloe Cup. The World Cup holders raced into an 18-3 lead in the opening game of the newly expanded tournament, which now includes Argentina, through tries by Israel Dagg and Cory Jane before veteran lock Nathan Sharpe crossed just before halftime for the Wallabies' only try. Berrick Barnes' kicking hauled Australia to within five points to leave New Zealand facing an uncomfortable final few minutes but Dan Carter's fifth successful penalty ensured that the All Blacks take pole position ahead of next weekend's return fixture in Auckland.'Rustiness' Defending southern hemisphere champions Australia troubled their trans-Tasman rivals when they had the ball in hand but a raft of missed tackles and a couple of knock-ons at key moments effectively handed the win to the All Blacks. "You could say its rustiness, who knows," Barnes said. "We're going to have to go back to the drawing board and rectify it. "We've got a long way to go." Carter kicked 17 points but the biggest difference between the sides in a stop-start match at Sydney's Olympic Stadium was the speed of the ball won by the New Zealand forwards - and the mistakes made by the Wallabies as the black shirts came at them. New Zealand coach Steve Hansen blamed the mistakes and 28 penalties in the match on the short turnaround for players following the conclusion of the Super 15. "It's probably not the most perfect game in the world but when you get two sides coming off the breaks we've had, playing at the intensity we're playing, there's going to be errors," Hansen said. The visitors' solid scrum laid the platform for their first-half tries and only the regular whistling of referee Alain Rolland kept the Wallabies from being even more comprehensively dominated at the set piece. The score was 3-3 when Sonny Bill Williams ran decoy to let Carter carry the ball away from the scrum to meet the Australia midfield, slipping a delayed pass to Dagg. The fullback tore past opposite number Kurtley Beale on the left touchline and scored in the corner. The hapless Beale was then culpable for New Zealand's second try, knocking on a kick under no pressure inside his own 22. The All Blacks sprayed the ball left to right from the resulting scrum and Dagg swiftly deposited the ball in Jane's hands on the right for the winger to score. "We worked pretty hard but it's not all about the backs, it's about the timing of the delivery particularly from the scrum," assistant coach Ian Foster said. "It got us ahead of their defenders and we took advantage of that."Second half Australia made a final attack of the half and Digby Ioane powered through only to be hauled down just short. Will Genia popped the ball up off the ground for Sharpe to go over for his eighth try from 106 tests. Barnes pulled the Wallabies to within eight points with the conversion and the gap was just five points within five minutes of the restart after the flyhalf landed another penalty. Carter and Barnes then traded kicks before the New Zealand flyhalf restored the cushion with his fourth successful penalty. Dagg was bundled into touch as he raced in for a second try in the right corner following a break by Liam Messam and Jane spilled just short of the line on the other wing. The All Blacks looked to be home and dry but Barnes again hauled the Wallabies to within a try and the majority of the 76,877 fans were roaring, only to be silenced as the ball was hacked clear and Carter made the game safe with the final kick of the match. Having won the last 13 straight matches against Australia at Eden Park, New Zealand will now keep hold of the Bledisloe Cup for a 10th year in a row if they edge out the Wallabies next weekend.

Special operations warfare
Special operations warfare, unconventional military actions against enemy vulnerabilities that are undertaken by specially designated, selected, trained, equipped, and supported units known as special forces or special operations forces (SOF). Special operations are often conducted in conjunction with conventional military operations as part of a sustained politico-military campaign. Some special operations are spectacular direct raids that capture wide publicity, but others are long-term indirect efforts that are never made known. No matter what form it takes, each special operation is an effort to resolve, as economically as possible, specific problems at the operational or strategic level that are difficult or impossible to address with conventional forces alone.
Differences between special operations warfare and conventional warfare
Special operations warfare is conducted by uniformed military forces. This distinction helps to differentiate special operations warfare from activities such as sabotage and subversion conducted by intelligence agencies or internal security and policing conducted by law-enforcement units employing special weapons and tactics. Sometimes the dividing line between special operations conducted by intelligence agencies and those conducted by military units is not clear, as in the case of intelligence gathering on the one hand and special reconnaissance activities on the other. Often the only difference between them is organizational, as special forces fall under military chains of command and its operators wear uniforms, whereas those from intelligence agencies do not. In addition, there are legal differences between the two activities: national laws authorizing overt and clandestine military actions may be entirely separate from laws authorizing covert actions by civilian intelligence agencies, and certainly there is a great difference around the world in the legal protections afforded to military as opposed to intelligence personnel. (Intelligence personnel have no legal standing internationally, whereas military personnel ostensibly receive some protection under the laws of war.)
Given its unorthodox nature, special operations warfare is directly related to other well-known forms of unconventional warfare such as terrorism, guerrilla warfare, and insurgency. Most often, however, special forces are trained to counter such forms of warfare, using superior tactics, equipment, supply, and mobility to defeat terrorists, guerrillas, and insurgents who adopt unconventional tactics out of necessity. Special forces seek to deprive irregular opponents of the few tactical advantages they possess by denying them mobility, sanctuary, surprise, and initiative. In other cases, though, special forces may actually conduct guerrilla warfare or insurgency against conventional state-based adversaries, for example, by harrying or harassing supplying lines, raising partisan forces, or distracting enemy forces from conventional operations by forcing them to deal with threats in areas thought to be pacified or secure.
Special operations also must be distinguished from operations conducted by "specialized" conventional military forces—for instance, airborne and amphibious units. Those forces are organized, equipped, and trained to perform one specific task (for instance, airborne assault, airfield seizure, or amphibious landing), and they would require significant time, retraining, and reequipping to conduct another task. Often such specialized units receive the moniker of corps d'elite, reflecting their unique purpose, traditions, and past achievements in combat. The most significant differences between special operations forces and specialized forces lie in two broad areas. First is the scale of their operations: special operations are relatively small-scale, being conducted by companies, platoons, teams, or squadrons, whereas specialized operations are mounted by large units such as regiments, brigades, or even divisions. The second area is orthodoxy: special operations feature improvised and often indirect approaches, whereas specialized military operations feature orthodox approaches in a relatively direct assault.
To sum up, special operations warfare differs from conventional warfare on the basis of three criteria: the economical way in which force is used; different considerations and calculations of political and operational risk; and the characteristics and qualities of the military forces that conduct them. The "special" qualities of special forces are a product of their organization, training, support, and, most important, selection. All these factors are discussed in detail below, and all allow for the creation of flexible forces that employ unorthodox approaches to solve difficult and risky problems.
Economy and risk
Special operations warfare is the ultimate realization of the military principle of "economy of force," in that small numbers of special operators often can achieve far greater results than conventional military operations. For example, in 1977 paramilitary special operators of the West German Grenzschutzgruppe-9 (GSG-9; Border Force Group 9) were able to free 90 hostages from a hijacked airliner in Mogadishu, Somalia, at a cost of only one friendly casualty. A comparable attempt by conventional military or paramilitary forces might not have been possible for political reasons, and doubtless it would have led to considerably higher casualties among both the hostages and the rescuers. Given their disproportionately high return on investment, special operations have value to political and military decision makers, at both the strategic and the operational level, as a low-cost method of addressing vexing problems with a high probability of success.
Special operations may be economical, but they are not without risk. One risk involves the disproportionate return on investment mentioned above. Success is not guaranteed in any military operation, and one very important strategic risk associated with a high-payoff special operation is humiliation should the operation fail to achieve its intended results. Humiliation after such a failure can have severe consequences, both politically and militarily. One example is the failed attempt by U.S. forces to rescue American hostages from Iran in 1980, images of which seemed to confirm to the world that the United States could not perform effectively militarily in the wake of the Vietnam War. Another example is the slow response and lacklustre performance of paramilitary special operators from India's National Security Guard during the Mumbai terrorist attacks of 2008. In both cases, outright failure or failure to perform as expected led to highly critical reports in the media, official inquiries, and a certain level of domestic and international political crisis.
In addition to political and strategic fallout, another form of risk is associated with the danger inherent in special operations themselves. Given the fact that most special operations take place in denied or hostile territory, using small numbers of personnel in comparison to the enemy, the risk associated with tactical failure can be death for those involved.
Special designation, equipment, and training
One difference between contemporary and historical special operations warfare is in the creation, evolution, and sustainment of special forces units. Contemporary special operations warfare had its genesis in World War II, but during that conflict, military forces that conducted unorthodox actions were often created as the need arose and then disbanded once the actions had been completed. Famous examples include the joint U.S.-Canadian First Special Service Force, specially trained for mountain warfare; the German Kleinkampfmittelverband (or K-Verband) combat swimmers; and the Italian Decima Flottiglia Mezzi d'Assalto (or Xa MAS) naval assault teams. Today maintaining special forces on a permanent basis gives them greater capabilities than their historical predecessors.
Standing special forces organizations are built upon three foundational elements that give them their "special" characteristics and also differentiate them from their conventional counterparts. Those three foundational elements are special designation, special equipment, and specialized selection and training.
Special designation reflects the unique qualities and demonstrated abilities of a special force. Most commonly, the special designation is seen in the name and also in some part of the uniform that distinguishes members of special forces from members of other units. Members of Britain's Special Air Service (SAS) sport a sand-coloured beret and "winged dagger" badge, while Russia's Spetsialnoye naznacheniye (Spetsnaz) can be distinguished by their berets and striped undershirts. Some countries take such distinctions farther; for many years, Indonesian Kopassus special operators wore not only a distinctive red beret but also a unique camouflage uniform. Differences in uniform and unit designation are more than ceremonial; they are worn as a badge of honour by those who have completed the rigorous selection and training processes associated with special forces.
Those selection and training regimes perform a screening function that separates those who have specific qualities from those who do not. More specifically, selection and training identify those with the physical and, above all else, psychological qualities necessary for special operations work (such as level-headedness in times of exceptional stress, intelligence, maturity, and an ability for unconventional problem solving and lateral thinking). The selection process often occurs over several phases and often is overseen by experienced retired former operators. The point of training is to develop special operators' skills to an exceptional level, cross-train operators in several skills as a means of self-reliance and team building, and also continuously scrutinize candidates for their suitability. Examples of such training and selection processes include the Qualification (or "Q") course for the U.S. Army's Special Forces (the "Green Berets"), the Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S) course for the U.S. Navy's SEALs, and the joint UKSF selection program for Britain's SAS and Special Boat Service (SBS). The training for special operators is not only demanding but also dangerous. Special forces' training regimes are designed to push against the boundaries of a candidate's physical and psychological endurance, refine both individual and group approaches to problem solving, and hone tactical skills in order to make unconventional options possible, such as high-altitude low-opening (HALO) parachute jumps.
The third and final foundational element of special forces is their specialized equipment. Such equipment may include nonstandard issue such as clothing, eyewear, or weapons; inventory obtained outside traditional military lines of supply, such as light helicopters; equipment heavily modified from standard military issue—for example, by the addition of commercial sights and barrels; and equipment that is technically still in development, such as miniaturized and "burst transmission" radios and advanced unmanned aerial vehicles. In the most specialized units, operators are often free to choose equipment that suits their personal preferences and needs. This freedom reflects confidence in the operators' judgment and ability as well as the primary emphasis in special operations units on the mission's success.
Flexibility and adaptability
Given unlimited time and resources, any military unit can be trained to conduct a specific task to a high standard. Such training is often repeated over and over again in order to ensure that flaws are identified and corrected and mission execution becomes second nature. A number of ad hoc special forces created during World War II, including the German airborne force that seized Fort Eben Emael in Belgium in 1940, prepared for their assaults in this way. What sets contemporary special forces apart from conventional forces, and even some special forces apart from other special forces, is the wide variety of conditions under which it is expected that tasks will be executed without compromising standards. As one special operator has noted, any force can be trained to capture a high-value target, such as a terrorist leader or a military facility, with a high likelihood of success, but some special forces are able to conduct multiple missions over a single period of time and across a wide variety of space with almost no reduction in their standard of execution. Under conditions such as nighttime, adverse weather, and fatigue, special operators are expected to remember vast quantities of detail and carry out missions beyond the ability of other units. In addition, as techniques evolve and an enemy adapts, special forces must also continually adapt and innovate as what was once "special" becomes the norm for conventional forces or is no longer effective against an enemy.
Direct and indirect force
The tasks that special forces perform fall under two broad categories. The first category is the direct, or kinetic, application of military force. Direct operations often involve the destruction, killing, or capture of people, equipment, and facilities. Examples would be the U.S. mission into Abbottabad, Pakistan, that targeted Osama bin Laden in 2011; the Italian targeting and sinking of two British warships and a Norwegian tanker in Alexandria, Egypt, in 1941; and the Israeli operation against an Egyptian radar and electronic monitoring facility on the Suez Canal in 1969. Direct special operations often become well known as "great raids," capturing the imagination of the public and politicians for their daring and audacity, immediate results, and seeming decisiveness. Special operators often distinguish such raids according to their target: direct action, the most generic type of raid; counterterrorism, specifically targeting terrorist leaders, organizers, followers, and infrastructure; and counterproliferation, in which weapons of mass destruction and their components are destroyed, neutralized, or seized and rendered safe. In order to mitigate risk and ensure success, direct special operations require exceptionally well-trained and well-equipped forces that have rehearsed missions exhaustively on the basis of long-term and incomparably detailed intelligence information.
The second category of special operations is indirect application of force—or even no use of force at all. Indirect, or nonkinetic, operations require a great deal of patience to conduct, as considerable time can elapse before their effects are noticeable. Special forces conducting indirect operations seek to work through proxies (for instance, insurgent or partisan groups conducting "unconventional warfare"), other third parties (e.g., host governments that agree to let special forces enter their countries as part of "counterinsurgency," "foreign internal defense," or "security force assistance" missions), nonviolent actions (e.g., building schools and digging wells in "civil affairs" projects to improve the life of the local population, gathering information clandestinely in "special reconnaissance" efforts), and various other means (including the use of speakers, leaflets, and the Internet in "psychological operations" or "military information support operations"). The goal of indirect special operations is either to increase the effectiveness of local insurgent or security forces or to influence the morale, will, and cohesion of the target audience—all of this done as economically as possible and with little or no publicity because of the sensitive political nature of the missions. In an example of this type of operation, in 2002 the United States began to support, through numerous types of indirect special operations, the government of the Philippines in its struggle against a number of terrorist and insurgent groups in that country's southern islands. The lack of publicity surrounding Operation Enduring Freedom–Philippines (OEF-P) reflected both the nature of indirect special operations and a mutual desire on the part of the Philippines and United States not to incite a public or political backlash through more aggressive, visible, direct, and conventional military support.

It sounds like the plot of a B movie Bond rip-off. On Wednesday at noon, Donald Trump posted a YouTube video making President Obama an offer he can't refuse, to use a cliche not far removed from the real estate mogul's own words.
The billionaire birther has given the President a week to produce his college records and passport applications in return for a $5 million donation to the charity of Obama's choice. Trump has long claimed the American public knows little of the President's background and says this move will put the issue to rest.
Forbes called The Donald a few minutes after his announcement, which caused a predictable collective eye-roll among media types on Twitter. Trump denied his Obama ultimatum is in any way self-serving, nor intended to generate publicity for himself or the upcoming season of his NBC show Celebrity Apprentice.
"This should be seen as a positive for Obama," Trump told us. "There's a huge cloud hanging over this presidency. This could be solved in a positive and easy manner."
Trump was less forthcoming when asked why he didn't take the traditional route of the super-rich and donate his $5 million to one of the many right-leaning super PACs propping up Mitt Romney's election bid.
He hasn't given any money to Romney-backing super PAC Restore Our Future. To date, 38 other billionaires have. He has, however, co-hosted and attended fundraisers for the GOP hopeful.
(A Trump Organization insider confirmed to Forbes that Trump, who is worth $3.1 billion, has indeed given money to conservative groups this election cycle, but that he's chosen to give via tax-exempt nonprofits that don't disclose donors.)
Trump has yet to hear from the White House, but hopes President Obama's team responds in the affirmative. "I'll be extremely happy to write this check," he said. "Except you'll have to knock $5 million off my net worth."
