Horses, Horses
Shades of the old west .. .
With thundering hoof-beats
pounding over sidewalks and
chopping up the freshly-laid
sod, five runaway horses raced
madly across Bethel's newly-relandscaped
campus, creating
confusion as they ran.
Pandemonium broke loose
among the many members (self-appointed)
of the Faulty As-sociation
for Thorough Edifica-tion
as they viewed the destruc-tion
wrought by the fugitive
animals. "This will put comple-tion
time for the landscaping
at least two weeks behind sche-dule,"
commented one uniden-tified
Several minutes after the
horses put in their whirl-wind
appearance, a stranger ap-proached
Hank Pederson, sem-inarian
extraordinary—and ex-tennis
player, and asked if Hank
had seen any horses come run-ning
past. Henry had but one
answer: "They went that-a-way.'
Two additional persons have
been hired to complete the faculty
for the school year 1958-59. Miss
Jeannine Bohlmeyer will be teach-ing
in the English department, and
Julius Whitinger will be in the

Students Display Art;
Much Deserves Notice
On display in the student center, as some may have observed, are
several unique offerings of many of the art students in our college.
While some of the work appears decidedly immature and the use of
color seems to lack a total artistic concept, the work viewed as a whole
contains much of value.
Perhaps an optimistic note could even be sounded for the future
development of art when schools are producing persons who are as sen-sitive
as these.
One problem exists however, and students' comments on the paint-ings
and sculpture serve to illustrate it.
It seems that many on our campus fail to respond to creative
works in any way approaching an intelligent manner or even in a
way which would indicate an awareness of that which is beautiful or
esthetically pleasing.
There are too few people who appreciate art or are sensitive to
beauty. Beauty is all about us, yet very few seem aware of the fact.
It is true that we have our poets, painters, sculptors, musicians, and
writers but the rest of society seemingly does not even care for the
creative efforts of those individuals.
In our contemporary society then, excluding the artists, there is
no one to hail a glorious sunset, the flight of a bird, or to describe the
effect of light filtering through shady trees. Even if a person were
sensitive to beauty, he would find himself so out of tune with his as-sociates
that the sensitivity in his nature is killed by the abuse and
scorn heaped upon him.
At a college level this is extremely unfortunate because a proper
esthetic appreciation is not only the mark of a well-educated person,
but through constant effort can became the highest expression of one's
foul. One must experience a realm of beauty in life in order to give
strength and meaning to existence.
`In Unity Is Freedom'- Bligh ;
Cease Student Persecution
by Eggerley Bligh
The hour draws nigh. The monarchial professors look gleefully
down on the student rabble and anticipate with ecstatic satisfaction
this impending hour of sweat and tears; this hour in which final
examinations shall be heaped upon the mass of humanity now grovel-ling
in the mire of textual torrent. See the baronic tutors' leering
visages look down at and behold with joy the burdened student,
struggling valiantly with his great load.
The lordly faculty stoop not to aid. They care not if his noble spirit
is crushed beneath these magnitudinous encumbrances. See them —
they clasp their pudgy hands with relish; they tongue their lips with
zest. (One might think that the burdened unfortunate is a succulent
victual being prepared for his overlord's gastronomic gratification.)
Fellow students, I ask you—can we, who have been weaned on the
milk of personal liberty and justice, neglect the freedom of our will?
Can we with clear conscience allow our personalities to be blown about
by every breath of professorial edict? Your answer must be—"No."
I entreat you then, for your individual welfares, to unite. Let us
band together in a grand attempt to throw over these tyrants. Such
base oppression as theirs cannot long endure. We are the more numer-ous.
We can conquer!!
Let us not resign ourselves in apathy; let us shun lethargic com-panions,
and let us strike a blow for honor and freedom. Others shall
follow. Tyranny will fall and the hour of painful testing will be
drowned in the tide of victory.
Then shall we be able to thrust our unburdened minds into the
glorious sunlit uplands of happiness—which is our rightful due.

A much talked about figure of the latter part of the 19th century
'wkis Leo Tolstoi, the author of War and Peace. Born the son of a
nobleman, he, early in life, became famous as a brilliant novelist. His
career as a literary genius reached its height upon his completion of
Anna Karenina in 1876. As is revealed in War and Peace, My Confes-sions,
and many of his shorter stories he was an ardent seeker toward
understanding and describing life.
These years of literary greatness, however, became years of tor-ment
and anxiety. And as he grew older the pleasures of life began to
lose their appeal. Life to him became meaningless and unbearable. On
the verge of committing suicide, Tolstoi experienced a religious con-version
that changed his whole view of life and, consequently, his
Here, in this anthology of his Tales of Courage and Conflict, are
some 36 of his most famous short stories and moral fables, both written
before and after his conversion. In his pre-conversion works we see
a Tolstoi who is passionately seeking to discover the answers to a
variety of problems in life. In his "Sevastopol" sketches he realistically
describes such things as what courage is, how terrible war really is,
and what dying is like. In "Lost on the Steppes" he makes one sense
vividly how men behave when they are lost in a furious snowstorm.
In his post-conversion works a new Tolstoi is seen with a different
purpose for living and writing. His works now reveal one who has the
answers, rather than one who is seeking. Much of his time is now spent
in writing moral fables quite simple in style but never leaving the
reader untouched. The titles themselves are quite suggestive as to
what moral Tolstoi meant the reader to grasp. Title samples are:
"Where love is, there God is also," "What men live by," and "Walk
in the Light while there is Light."
A great variety of Tolstoi's most enjoyable works are to be found
in this first major anthology of his short stories.

Our Character
Is Determined
By Our Choices
by Lawrence VanHeerden
Someone has said that character
is the sum total of the choices we
make over a life-time. This is
perhaps an over-simplification, but
it merits consideration.
Certainly it is true that our
lives are subject to continual per-sonal
decision. We must constantly
choose between good and evil, be-tween
the mediocre and the best,
between the fleeting and the last-ing.
Furthermore, history seems
to bear out the fact that what we
choose has a direct effect upon
us. As the Bible says, "We reap
what we sow." We can never es-cape
the consequences of personal
Joseph could easily have yielded
to the seductive charms of Poti-phar's
wife. His refusal brought
him suffering, but eventual vindi-cation.
David and Samson chose other-wise
and the marks of their defec-tion
cut a deep cross into their
tortured souls. Saul's choices ruin-ed
the stature of his manly char-acter
and ended in suicide.
Jesus Christ never made a wrong
choice. He "loved righteousness"
and the perfectness of his char-acter
carried him through death
to his resurrection and triumph
for all men.

An Old Man
Once upon a time there was a very old man with young features
who lived alone in the great north woods. Reliable rumors said that he
had lived for 1400 years. The old man was essentially conservative,
but somehow always managed to keep abreast of modern times, and
consequently the children of the village used to come to him for ad-vice
and guidance, for he had an abundance of wisdom and tradition
behind him.
The children would come to him and after four years of his tutor-ing
the elders of the community would consider them mature. It was
considered a great privilege and benefit to be able to live and visit
with the old man for four years, and the elders often warned that the
old man imparted a special, intangible something. "Something," they
repeatedly said, "that couldn't be taken away." But it always took the
children one or two years before they realized that the old man really
did have something to offer them. Oh, there were a lot of other old
men roaming the woods, handing out advice, and some of them were
absolutely whacky. But this particular old man, those at the end of
the four years realized, had 1400 years behind him and hence some-thing
For the most part the old man was unhurried, unperturbed. And
those children that left him each year were merely the tangent of an
endless circle of children that touched a line that had travelled smoothly
for 1400 years. Each child would become as old and gray as any other
in the yellowed pages of the old man's ledger. What they had done
would be forgotten and easily surpassed. But somewhere within them
the old man and his peculiar and often disturbing way had left an
indelible, incorruptable mark. Child after child struggled to find out
just what the old man possessed that made so much difference, and
child after child found out only after having left the old man and
having returned to the village.
The four years with the old man passed so very, very quickly that
the children often wondered whether they were able to receive all that
he had to give — if anything would be lasting. The years went by
fast because they were secure and pleasant ones, and it was rather
frightening to suddenly be cast out of the woods. What was even worse
was to know that once outside the woods they would have to rely on
what the old man had told and taught them. Suppose the old man was
wrong! But most of the children (mature now) didn't seem to fear that.
The old man had taught them to look ahead but to relish the
past. He had taught them the ability to do many, many things. And
because he had taught them so well they always seemed to make some
of the best elders once they were established in the village. Those who
had learned under the old man were able to succeed and be happy in
the village because the old man always asked them one question before
they left the woods. At the end of everyone's four years he would
slump back in his wicker chair, proudly look over him, and with a firm
voice ask, "Quo Vadis ?" And almost everyone answered with an
equally firm voice, unhesitant and with sureness. And that always
pleased the old man.
A lot of the villagers hated the old man, distrusted and suspected
him. Others sympathized. Many loved him. But everyone respected
him, and everyone also admitted that the old man could readily answer
his own question—"Quo Vadis ?" Indeed, that was the very reason
he had survived for 1400 years. And everyone knew that the children
that went to the old man would always be able to answer the ques-tion,
and if a few of them couldn't it was only because they hadn't
really paid much attention to what he had said. But that didn't happen
to too many of them, for anybody who came in contact with the old
man knew it was practically impossible to escape his influence. And, if
things didn't run amuck, they suspected he would easily live for an-other
1400 years.

Letter Writers - Look!!
If at first you don't succeed, you should quit, but before you do, try this:
Dear Mr. and Mrs.
I wish to take this opportunity to thank you for relinquishing
your son (daughter) to us for this past year. You have done this un-knowingly
I realize. You have thought that you were only sending
him (her) away to college. What you have actually done is to make
a wonderful contribution to the great state of Minnesota, which, by
the way, is celebrating its centennial this year. I assure you that your
loss has been our gain.
My reason for writing to you at this time is not just to praise your
son (daughter). I am attempting to be of service to both you and your
fine son (daughter). Knowing your considerate son (daughter) the
way I do, I am sure that he (she) wouldn't mention anything of this
in one of his (her) letters.
Actually, I think that your noble offsprung (singular of offspring)
is in slight financial straits. I would volunteer to give to him the
necessary funds, but I am sure that he (she) wouldn't take it. So, I
suggest that you send him (her) about twenty-five dollars, if you would
like him (her) to arrive at home this summer. We would certainly
enjoy such a person remaining in our state, during its centennial year
especially, but . . . well . . . a word to the wise is sufficient.
Orville Freeman
This letter would be more effective if accompanied by a letter from
said offsprung which makes no mention of that dirty old green stuff.
Watch out for the signature. It could be worth twenty years if it
is too unintelligible.
Coach Lowry "Fritz" Fredrickson, the well-liked seminarian,
has stated that he will not resume his position of head track coach
and line coach of the football squad next year. Fritz has held these
positions for the past two years.
As a middleman in the semin-ary
he feels that more attention
must be given to his studies and
preparation for the future.
Fritz has proven to be one of
the most well-liked members of
the coaching- staff and will un-doubtedly
be missed by his pro-teges
and the campus queens—
he's still single. But for how
long Fritz?
It was unfortunate that his
exit was not made with a con-ference
title. He did a tremendous
job training and bolstering the
morale of his speedsters for
the conference meet of the last
weekend. The squad couldn't have been better.
Fritz is sometimes called "Joe coach" among other things by
his thinclads. He received his first taste of coaching while student
teaching in Sulphur Springs, Iowa.
The Needle
My apologies to the baseball team for the small amount of
print given them in the last issue. But fellas, how much space
should three losses and over 15 errors get. Note today's page . . .

meet was cancelled 15 minutes before race time. Our cindermen were

with stop watches—then a phone call saying, "We can't make it."
Our boys were angry . . . Jack M. and Whitey T. can vouch for the
fact that bunt signals must be taken. Both ending up on the bench

Subversive Element Revealed:
Philosophy Of Disintegrationism
traditional concepts of behavior,
being, and existence. They have
challenged the importance, even
the validity, of "appearance" for
its own sake.
In their striving for reality,
awareness, and self-realization
they feel that a measure of free-dom
has been achieved. The dilem-ma
of disintegrationism, whether
it be pre, post, historic, neo, or
eclectic-a, is that its protagonists
have become disillusioned with
their freedom—freedom, they ask
in despair, from what, and for
Disintegrationism, purporting to
being a new philosophy, is based
on a theological concept: that the
soul of the believer finds unity
with God—a oneness, while the
soul of the unbeliever disintegrates.
Some souls begin to disintegrate
in this life, while others don't
lose their identity until death.
This concept has not gone un-challenged
however. One group
which makes a vigorous attack on
disintegrationist philosophy is the
anti-disintegrationist school, small
but vociferous, which says: one
is not awake long enough in life
to be aware of what is happening.
While this is an opposing force,
it perhaps represents as dangerous
a trend as does disintegrationism.
In recent days, weeks, and
months, an insidious development
has been growing on campus—a
development which gives evidence
of becoming something of extreme
importance, of significance beyond
anything considered possible by
those most concerned. It is called
This alleged development has its
roots in the frustration, sorrow,
despair, and pessimism of certain
campus inhabitants. In their
searching for certainty, for mean-ing,
for significance, and for real-ity,
they have repudiated many

The last all-school party of the

"Adventure in Excellence," a
Young-Life film will be shown.
There will also be swimming, tele-vision,

According to Marilyn Swanson,
social council chairman, this party
has been planned to take the place
of the annual all-school picnic. "We
realize it's the weekend before
finals, but we also feel every stu-dent

Division of the Bethel Student
Association into two separate stu-dent
body organizations, one for
the college and one for the semin-ary,
has been approved by the
Student Senate.
Next fall this proposal will be
submitted to the student body for
a vote.
A study on the advisability of
such a division was made by the
Senate committee headed by David
Clark, chairman of the seminary
council, and Dwight Jessup, sopho-more
class president.
Reasons for the recommendation
• A large majority of students
favor the division.
• Interests of college and semin-ary
students vary markedly.
• The seminary students lack con-cern
for and participation in the
Student Association and the
Senate programs.
Such a separation would involve
extensive work in the areas of
constitution revision, financial pol-icy,
administrative relations, and
actual proceedings of the change,
the committee reported.

Supreme Court Rules States Can't Use IQ to Decide Executions
By David G. Savage
The Supreme Court put new limits on the death penalty Tuesday, deciding that states may not use a "rigid rule" that denies leniency to defendants with severe mental disabilities simply because they score 70 or above on an IQ test.
"Intellectual disability is a condition, not a number," said Justice Anthony M. Kennedy. He advised judges to view IQ test scores with "studied skepticism" and instead look closely at how the convict had functioned throughout his life before the crime.
The 5-4 decision gives new hope to convicted murderers in Florida and at least eight other states that have relied heavily on IQ scores to decide who should be spared from capital punishment.
The American Psychological Association applauded the decision. "We are pleased that a majority of the court agreed that Florida's use of a fixed cutoff score ... is based on a fundamental misunderstanding of how to interpret IQ scores," said Nathalie Gilfoyle, the group's general counsel. She said there was a scientific consensus across professional organizations that an individual's "adaptive functioning" must be considered along with test scores.
It was the Supreme Court's first decision on the issue since 2002, when it barred the death penalty for those deemed "mentally retarded." The 2002 ruling did not precisely define who qualified for the exemption. The justices had reasoned at the time that although capital punishment was constitutional, it should be limited to the most deserving.
Because people with mental disabilities may act impulsively and without considering the consequences, it would be "cruel and unusual punishment" to put them to death, the court ruled in 2002. The court noted that an IQ score below 70 was a common sign of intellectual disability.
Since then, Florida, Virginia, Kentucky and Alabama have decided that any convict who scores at least 70 on an IQ test does not have an intellectual disability. Five other states _ Arizona, Delaware, Kansas, North Carolina and Washington _ appear to use a "bright-line cutoff" based on an IQ test, Kennedy said in the latest ruling.
Kennedy also noted a trend among states to move away from the death penalty. In the last decade, five states _ Connecticut, Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey and New Mexico _ abolished capital punishment. New York's death penalty was struck down by a state court in June 2004. Other states, including California, have maintained the death penalty but do not set an IQ cutoff score for deciding who should be spared.
In Tuesday's decision, Kennedy and the court's four liberal justices set out what they consider to be the flaws in Florida's approach to deciding whether a defendant suffers from an intellectual disability.
Freddie Lee Hall was judged by school teachers and friends to be severely "retarded" as a child and as a young man. He had difficulty speaking and learning words. He was also horribly abused by his mother because he was "slow." She beat him with a belt, poked him with sticks, strapped him to his bed at night with a rope thrown over a rafter, and in one incident cited by the court, put him in a sack and swung it over a fire.
In 1978, Hall and another man kidnapped and murdered a young woman and then a shot a policeman outside a convenience store. Although a judge agreed Hall "had been mentally retarded his entire life," he was sentenced to death.
After the Supreme Court's 2002 ruling, Hall's death sentence was reconsidered. But judges noted that he had taken several IQ tests and had achieved scores of 71 and 80 at different times and, therefore, could not qualify as "mentally retarded."
In Hall vs. Florida, the justices set aside this definition.
"This rigid rule, the court now holds, creates an unacceptable risk that persons with an intellectual disability will be executed, and thus is unconstitutional," Kennedy said. Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen G. Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan agreed.
In dissent, Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. faulted the majority for a "new and unwise turn" in the law by relying on "private professional associations" to establish constitutional values.
In the past, he said, the court had looked to states and to public opinion to judge American values. "Now the court strikes down a state law based on the evolving standards of professional societies, most notably the American Psychiatric Association," he said. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. and Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas agreed with him.

If you want to perform a particular set of actions every time that an Access database starts, you can create an AutoExec macro. For example, you might want to automatically maximize the application window, lock the Navigation Pane, and then open a particular report.
An AutoExec macro is just a macro that is named AutoExec. When a database starts, Access runs the AutoExec macro before it runs any other macros or VBA code.
Note: This article doesn't apply to Access web databases or Access web apps.
Create an AutoExec macro
If you have already created a macro that contains the actions that you want to occur when the database starts, just rename the macro to AutoExec, and it will run the next time that you open the database. Otherwise, follow these steps to create a macro:
On the Create tab, in the Other group, click Macro.
Note: If you're using Access 2007, on the Create tab, in the Other group, click Macro. If this command is unavailable, click the arrow beneath either the Module or the Class Module button, and then click Macro.
In the drop-down list at the top of the Macro Builder, select the action that you want to perform. If applicable, type the appropriate values in the argument boxes.
Note: If you're using Access 2007, in the Macro Builder, in the first empty Action cell, select the action that you want to perform. If applicable, under Action Arguments, type the appropriate values in the argument boxes.
If you cannot find the action you want, on the Design tab, in the Show/Hide group, make sure Show All Actions is selected. This expands the list of actions that you can use, but the list will include some actions that will only run if the database is granted trusted status. For more information, see the article Decide whether to trust a database.
Repeat step 2 for each additional action you want to occur.
Click Save, and in the Save As dialog box, type AutoExec.
Click OK and then close the Macro Builder. The new macro will run the next time that you open the database.
For more information about how to create macros, see the article Create a user interface (UI) macro.
To bypass the AutoExec macro and other startup options, hold down the SHIFT key while you start the database. For more information, see the article Bypass startup options when you open a database.
Another way to perform actions when a database starts is to specify a startup form, and then attach macros or VBA code to the OnOpen or OnLoad events of the form. For more information, see the article Set the default form that appears when you open an Access database.

Gland, Switzerland (11.06.01) IUCN-The World Conservation Union. The International Caviar Importers Association (ICIA), has generously agreed to provide a grant of US$10,000 to support the work of the Sturgeon Specialist Group (SSG) of IUCN's Species Survival Commission. Ten members of the Association will each contribute US$1,000 to enable the Group to retain a part-time executive officer and obtain communications equipment.
Sturgeon produce one of the world's most valuable wildlife commodities - the caviar of some species may sell for £4,000 per kilogramme. In the 1996 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, 27 species of the sturgeon and paddlefish family were listed as threatened with extinction. Since then, the situation of sturgeon in the main caviar producing areas of the Caspian and Sea of Azov/Black Sea regions is thought to have worsened due to increasing illegal harvest following the break-up of the former Soviet Union.
News of the donation follows the first meeting of the SSG in February this year where sturgeon experts and caviar traders gathered for the first time to form an action pan to halt the rapid decline of the species. Ongoing conservation initiatives were reviewed and priorities for future work identified. These include controlling poaching and illegal trade in caviar, improving efficiency in aquaculture and restocking techniques, and improving regional and international cooperation for sturgeon conservation.
"This is an extremely welcome move. It is the first time that the caviar industry and the Sturgeon Specialist Group have worked together on such a significant level, and shows recognition by the industry of the problems facing sturgeon species and the need for urgent action," says SSC's Wildlife Trade Programme Officer, Dr Alison Rosser.

This season, Pķpin creates nearly 100 delicious recipes for every occasion — from a light snack to an elegant dinner — using readily available fresh foods, supermarket staples and simple techniques. Taking inspiration from around the world, Pķpin's lamb stew, paella and Tibetan bread incorporate Asian, Latin American and diverse European influences, including his classic French background. Each episode contains four or more dishes, including minute-long recipes for croque monsieur tidbits, an instant red-pepper dip or butter bean canapes, along with Jacques' valuable tips and techniques.

Hurray! Cassoulet
Jacques takes the traditional long-cooked cassoulet of southwestern France and turns it into a 30-minute Cassoulet that can be made for family or company on a weeknight. It's a meal in itself, but even better with the addition of Avocado Halves in Red Sauce, Smoked Salmon Timbales or a Zucchini and Tomato Salad and a refreshing dessert of Oranges and Cream Cheese.
Soup's On
At the end of a long day, a large bowl of an earthy soup or stew like Corn and Hominy Chowder or Red Snapper with Mussels and Chorizo can be the perfect meal. In addition, Jacques prepares a quick Cheese Crostini and a Banana Bourbon Coupe, a special ending to any meal.
Cooking Under Pressure
Jacques, having grown up in France during the war, hates waste! The cooking liquid, juices and bodies of lobsters used in Lobster Salad with Tarragon can be used for Lobster Bisque. Servings of Pressure-Cooker Lamb and White Bean Stew can be extended by serving with Couscous or starting with an Asian Eggplant Salad. Jacques also makes a cost-conscious ricotta and graham cracker dessert, Ricotta Honey Mix.
Dessert "Pick Me Up"
After more than 50 years in the kitchen, Jacques still finds new ways to cook a chicken. For Chicken Breasts on Mashed Cauliflower with Red Salsa, the cooking method is classic, but the combination of flavors is fresh. It's a perfect winter dish paired with Smoked Trout Salad with Horseradish Cream and finished off with Pineapple Slices in Kirsch with Sherbet or Mock Tiramisu.
Apple a Day
After a busy day, dinner shouldn't be another challenge. Jacques shares the Shrimp Burger he discovered at Dr. Taco in Playa del Carmen and a great improvisational Bean Purķe with Anchovies or Smoked Oysters. With the appetite under control, there is time to work on Wonton Cannelloni in Tomato Sauce, Parsley and Pumpkin Seed Salad and Caramelized Apple Granola Timbales.
Quick Cuisine
Jacques believes culinary inspiration can come from an infinite number of sources. French classics inspire his Codfish Brandade and Chicken Breasts with Garlic and Parsley, peas add sweetness to Brococoli Rabe and Pea Fricassee, brownies take on a new look in a Chocolate Hazelnut Brownie Cake and a hot day and a ripe pineapple inspired a Pineapple Frosty.
Earthly Delights
Jacques was born hungry so many of his first courses are easily adapted to main courses. Baby Mozzarella Salad, Scrambled Eggs with Mushrooms and Truffles, Sautķed Quail with Raita and Cubed Potatoes with Garlic and Sage are all easily adjusted to fit different appetites. Jacques' good friend, Jean-Claude Szurdak, stops by and offers to prepare Pears in Honeyed Wine as a welcome dessert.
Comfort Kitchen
Jacques has gone foraging for mushrooms since childhood, but in Mushroom Veloutķ with Almonds, Instant Beef Tenderloin Stew and Mushroom and Raisin Chutney he uses older, store-bought, white button mushrooms with great results. He also creates a starter of Red Beets in Sour Cream and a finish of Apple, Pecan and Apricot Crumble in no time.
Perfect "Pear"Ings
A pressure cooker is a means of fast, efficient cooking as in Jacques' Veal Roast. To serve with it, Skillet Endives quickly provide a more concentrated taste. Two great starters, Summer Salad Santķ and Tomato and Mozzarella Fans, are best with fresh ingredients from the garden, while Pear Brown Betty uses leftover baked goods.
Palate Pleasers
Jacques gets inspired at the market. Scrambled Eggs on Tomato Jus can be enhanced by the addition of cheeses, vegetables, and herbs. Grilled Striped Bass with Pimento Relish can be varied by using the freshest fish and herbs available. Jacques also introduces the beautifully refreshing Pink Grapefruit Terrine, as well as the Asian inspired Cauliflower with Scallions and Sesame Oil and a quick Ham Cornucopia.
Casual Entertaining
When guests stop by and leave little time for preparation, there are easy fix-its. Tuna Tomatoes and Salmon Tartare on Cauliflower Salad are beautiful "do ahead" dishes for lunch or a first course. Breaded Pork Scaloppine with Mushroom Sauce, Chickpea Ragout and Caramelized Peaches can be prepared as a perfect evening supper.
Jacques' Favorites
Jacques believes in great food everyday. As long as the ingredients are on hand, Prosciutto and Figs or Crab Cakes in Red Sauce need not be saved for special occasions. Pasta, Ham and Vegetable Gratin can make use of leftover meats and vegetables and creates a nice balance when served with a salad of Romaine and Radicchio with Salsa Dressing. Big Almond Macaroons with Apricot Filling make any day feel special.
Under The Sea
Inspired by his mother, Jeannette, Jacques prepares an Egg and Tomato Gratin and Greens with Quick Cream Dressing. His wife Gloria inspired the first course, Smoked Whitefish Tartine. Stuffed Scallops on Mushroom Rice and Pineapple Wedges in Caramel would inspire anyone wanting great food!
Wrap It Up
A sit-down dinner with family and friends doesn't have to be formal. Devil Shrimp, Sausage and Potato Packets with Homemade Mustard, Mushroom and Walnut Salad in Sour Cream Dressing and Apple Peel Granitķ with Apple Purķe are dishes that bring the ease of a picnic inside. Jacques assembles a plate full of Basil, Cheese, Fig and Nut Bites, an easy light lunch or a perfect cheese course.
Instantly Delicious
Sometimes the key to fast food is a well-stocked refrigerator and pantry. Leftover vegetables become a Pķpin favorite with Jacques' Instant Vegetable Soup, also known as "fridge soup." By combining a few fresh products and kitchen staples, it is simple to prepare a Lavash Pizza, Halibut on Fresh Polenta with Pepper Oil, Pole Beans with Shallots and Hasty Pudding with Apricot Sauce.
Great Gratins
On a chilly evening, what could be better for dinner than a cup of soup or a casserole? Jacques shows how homey, comforting foods like Silky Tomato Soup with Spinach Coulis, Little Shrimp Casseroles, Toasted Bread and Mozzarella and a Rhubarb and Berry Crumble can also be great for a party. Apricot Sherbet is a light, easy, make-ahead dessert.
Fusion Flavors
Jacques has no favorite dishes when it comes to cooking and eating; he likes it all! Guava Delicioso, Chopped Chicken Livers with Spinach Salad, Glazed Salmon in Mirin, Silky Chestnut and Apple Puree and Warm Chocolate Cakes with Apricot-Cognac Sauce show the diversity in Jacques' repertoire.
Stick to Your Ribs
Jacques proves how fast and easy it can be to use a pressure cooker to make Beef Short Rib, Mushroom and Potato Stew. Meanwhile, there is plenty of time to prepare a starter of Sweet Potato Chowder or Scallop Seviche and Guacamole. The elegant Champagne on Fruit "Rocks" can be the perfect ending to any meal.
Dining Al Fresco
Take a little extra time at the grocery store or specialty market and introduce new ingredients to the pantry. Mirin, a sweet Japanese rice wine, adds crisp, light flavor to Sea Bass Gravlax with Cucumbers. Anchovies and tuna in oil are part of a quick sauce for Chicken Tonnato. A can of chestnut puree makes the dense Chestnut and Chocolate Cake an easy to prepare, at-home luxury. A different jam or vinegar makes Blueberries in Raspberry Sauce with Ice Cream and Summertime Salad sparkle.
Use Your Noodle
Jacques has spent more than forty years in the United States, but still embraces the French style of eating eggs for lunch or dinner. Bowtie Pasta with Fried Eggs and Cheese or an omelet, made side-by-side with dear friend Jean-Claude Szurdak, with a Crusty Tomato Savory is among Jacques' favorite meals. He prepares his mother's Peasant Soup, but dishes like Shrimp and Scallop Pillows on Boston Lettuce and a Grapefruit Gratinee are all Jacques'.
International Accents
Classic combinations shine in Jacques' dishes. Cannellini and Chorizo Soup combines flavorful chorizo and beans. A fennel salad works well alone or as the base of Salmon Rolls on Fennel Salad. Spicy spinach with raisins, pimiento, garlic and olive oil is well-paired with Broiled Lamp Chops with Spinach and super quick Baked Potatoes with Chive Sour Cream. Just make sure to leave room for Crepes with Banana-Rum Filling.
Lusciously Light
One of Jacques' all time favorite desserts easily becomes two and is a snap to make. Two Raspberry Gratins need little more than frozen raspberries and cookies. It's the perfect ending to the festive Red Snapper with Tomatoes and Cream and Asparagus with Shallots. Garden greens are topped with Sardine Rolls wrapped in rice paper and a Summertime Pasta shows off the freshest produce of the season.
Kitchen Classics
Jacques loves to cook with the seasons, but many ingredients are actually available year-round. A Smoked Salmon Plate using Scottish or Irish salmon, Soupy Rice with Peas using fresh or frozen peas, Fast Lobster Fricassee using summer or winter lobster, Broccoli Puree with Brown Butter, Broccoli Stem Relish and Vanilla Hazelnut Dessert are all favorites.
Go Fish
Once again, Jacques demonstrates techniques to help you spend less time in the kitchen. Asparagus Custards and an Apple Skillet Cake can be done ahead and re-heated. A quick Cold Black Bean Soup can be made in minutes and Slow-cooked Tuna Steaks with Tomato Relish free up the cook while the oven does most of the work.
Sunny Delights
Summertime and the cooking should be easy. Keep the heat in the tortillas and out of the kitchen with a quick, spicy Quesadilla. Check the farmers' market for the freshest tomatoes to make Tomato Tartare with Tomato Water Sauce and sweet strawberries for Strawberry-Shortbread Panachee. When summer is over, turn frozen peas into a Puree of Peas with Mint and Cilantro and warm up with Rigatoni with Mussels and Saffron.
Viva Espana!
Jacques' world travels influence his cooking and with this menu we'll savor the essence of Spain. Bold and Spicy Gazpacho kicks off the meal followed by Shellfish and Chicken Paella. A detour to pick up some Caribbean flavors makes the last dish of Pineapple In Dark Rum Sauce worth a trip to the kitchen.

Citrus Thrill
Jacques fires up the kitchen with a mouth-watering Skirt Steak Grandma accented with freshly squeezed lime in anchovy and garlic sauce. He complements this hearty dish with a classic Gnocchi with Eggs and Scallions and Sauteed Curly Mustard Greens with Hot Sausage. The elegantly presented Chestnut Cream Mont-Blanc, with crushed pieces of scrumptious biscotti, chestnut puree, and whipped cream, is simply a delicious ending.

Perfect Presentations
Lobster Roll Medallions on Spinach Salad show off Jacques new presentation of a summer seafood favorite. He proves that a craving for hearty food can be satisfied in minutes with Quick Lamb Stew where vegetables are cooked separately and the lamb is served rare. Then skip the time and effort it takes to make the crust for a tart and head straight for the filling in this shortcut that encases Small Berry Custards in pretty dishes.

Thanks. I have 3 spare 1-GHz machines hanging around here, and I think they'd be well suited for something like this, Rupert. OTOH, this is just "fun stuff to do while I'm messing around," and my main focus will be beowulf administration. I also delve into computer security too, and I'd imagine that security on a beowulf clusters can be VERY interesting :^). I only hope that I don't have to do too much reading before I get something up and running, although after doing this stuff we all call computin' for 25 years, I know that this isn't going to be the case -- not by a long shot.:^) > It takes .pov text files and converts them into .tga graphics > files. Ok. Kewl. Personally, I'm planning on converting them over to jpg to save disk space (and memory when editing).

Well, from one neophyte to another, I'll just say thanks and a job well done :^). Who am I to correct anyone when discussing this subject, although I've become a bit familiar with hardware and software development over the last 25 years. Hopefully, this previous knowledge will be of help with learn the this beowulf stuff :^). One thing that has me rather perplexed is that I didn't notice beowulf setups from Industrial Light and Magic, Amblin(sic?) and the like in the projects list on beowulf.org. You'd think that some of these shops would be proud to announce that they're using a setup like this, huh? OTOH, I just thought about something, and I guess that they can afford all of that high-end SGI gear and what not, so who needs a beowulf cluster? OTOH yet again :^), whose not into saving millions of bucks on rendering gear? Hmmm. Maybe LightWave hasn't been ported to a parallel environment yet or something? (Shrug.) BTW, I just came up with YADDA (Yet Another Damn Dumb Assessment :^)). With the Lindows and the Linux XBox projects floating around, I wonder if a person could build an el-cheapo beowulf setup for a few grand? I mean, the Lindows and XBox machines can be had at Wally World for around $200.00 bucks or so. You'd think they'd make a semi-decent cluster, and the XBox machines would have the added advantage of being able to be used as an XBox network for game parties. Not only that, but the XBox footprint is pretty damn small, especially when compared to something like a mid-tower (or larger) case. I can see it now. XBox parties after work at ORNL, LBL, and JPL, and all the physicists there are trashing the hell out of the physics model used in some racing game or something. :^) :^) Ok. On to answering more e-mails... Best Regards, Randall -- Randall Jouett Amateur Radio: AB5NI I eat spaghetti code out of a bit bucket while sitting at a hash table!

About the Authors: Laura Till serves as a Stability Operations Officer and Julie Walton serves as a Mediation Specialist in the Bureau of Conflict and Stabilization Operations.
Most Americans hear "Belize" and imagine sandy beaches and unspoiled rainforests. But Belize also has one of the world's highest homicide rates, due mostly to gang violence. A gang truce took effect in 2011, but it was fragile, and by January 2012 there was concern that the homicide rate would start to climb again.
At that point, the Belize government requested U.S. assistance. As part of the broader Central American Regional Security Initiative (CARSI), Embassy Belmopan responded by asking the State Department's Bureau of Conflict and Stabilization Operations (CSO) to provide mediation expertise. In May 2012, a four-person CSO team arrived in Belize City to work with RESTORE Belize -- the crime-prevention and social development arm of the prime minister's office -- and with its community partners.
CSO spent the first two months establishing mediation programs and training mediators in Belize City, where the problems are most serious. Later, an evaluation of these efforts found that 80 percent of the mediations prevented violence and that disputants, mediators, trainers, and host institutions were enthusiastic about expanding mediation.
While doing so, CSO ramped up its work on community dialogues, which are regular gatherings of neighbors to identify local challenges and create community solutions diffusing potential violence by tackling root causes. We taught a two-day course and mentored dialogue participants as they established their groups. "I now feel empowered, and I am a voice to get help the community," said Julie Miguel, one of the 26 trainees. "I would have never stepped up to do this without the training."
The number of dialogues grew and now stands at 15. Each is tailored to fit the particular needs of the area. One neighborhood created what it named "The Rites of Passage" to offer mentoring for boys and young men facing challenges such as pressure to join gangs. Another, "Empowering Mothers," helps single parents tackle apathy, fears, and poverty. One goal of this dialogue is to help mothers find jobs so that they can support their families and thus dissuade their children from engaging in criminal activity to earn money. A third community is creating green space for families to gather.
"I am impressed by the level of activity coming out of the training," said RESTORE Belize's Mary Vasquez. "...Community colleagues organized a family day at the St. Martin Parish Field…[and are] also organizing some sporting activities for young people.""Of the many projects I have seen in Belize in nearly four years, this is one of the most outstanding," said U.S. Ambassador Vinai Thummalapally, an invaluable ally from the start. The full cost of the program for CSO was less than $165,000. The embassy and CSO asked the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement (INL) to fund RESTORE Belize's expansion of the program. INL issued a grant for nearly $86,000, and with those funds RESTORE Belize and Prime Minister Dean Barrow are working to extend conflict mediation to every high school in Southside Belize City.
In all its engagements, CSO is deeply committed to local buy-in so that the initiative lives on long after the bureau's team has departed. We are heartened by the enthusiasm of the people and government of Belize. Ambassador Thummalapally said that CSO's work "brought amazing good will and appreciation at the highest levels."

Crab Cooked Recipes
Caribbean Crab Pilaf Recipe (Matete)
When I went back to Paris last summer, Papa told me about their recent vacation to the magical islands of the French West Indies (Antilles francaises), Martinique and Guadeloupe. He told me about the food he ate there and about a particular dish he adored called Matété (also named Matoutou). It's a spicy crab pilaf and its preparation is very similar to our Vietnamese crab cua rang muối.
The difference from the Asian dish is the flavorings, which consist of fresh thyme, celery, flat-leaf parsley, bay leaves, green onions and fresh Scotch bonnet peppers. We planted hot chile seeds at the beginning of the summer and they're just about ripe and ready to be cooked!

Vietnamese Crab Recipe: Cua Xao Sate
If you adore seafood as much as I do, you're in for a treat. This is a typical Vietnamese sauteed crab recipe called cua xào satế. The key to this recipe is in the preparation of the crab itself.
First, everything in the crab was used. What made the sauce was the use of "crab butter" as well as the corals from the inside of the crab. Then, I deep-fried the rest of the crabs and tossed them in a fragrant sauce called "satế," which consisted of garlic, ginger, hoisin sauce, glass noodles and plenty of fresh chiles.

Corn and Crab Soup Recipe
This crab soup , simply called súp cua in Vietnamese, was my attempt to finish the leftover crab from last night's dinner. We bought six crabs for the two people who actually eat seafood in our house, so there was a fair amount unfinished. I prepared cua rang me (Vietnamese tamarind crab) and that's basically all we ate with a little salad on the side. We were so full by the end of the meal that we could not finish the dish. It was our Mount Everest and we didn't conquer it!
I didn't want to waste the delicious crab, so I cracked the rest and gathered the crab meat. I had chicken stock in the freezer and I thickened it with a little corn starch. I added frozen corn and green onions to the soup and the result was just as I expected: mildly sweet, velvety and wonderfully soothing. Simply perfect!

Fermented Black Bean Crab Recipe
We had a giant seafood feast last weekend, and believe it or not, we cooked 12 whole crabs. The main flavoring of this dish was fermented black beans, which are very common in Asian cooking. I also added fresh green chiles and a lot of Thai basil leaves.
The crabs are prepared in two steps. First, they're fried, and then to finish them off, they are stir-fried with the fermented bean sauce and a bit of cooking wine. It gets a bit messy around the stove, but the result is worth the effort!
Full Recipe...
Sauteed Crab with Ginger and Basil
It never occurred to me until today that the reason I don't sauté crab that often is because the preparation can be very messy. Removing the abdominal flaps, separating the back fin, gathering the crab "butter" and corals from the inside of the crabs in a bowl and cracking the claws aren't the most glamorous of tasks. As I was chatting with the fish monger at my local market, he offered to clean the crabs for me and said he would do it whenever I feel like eating crab. How sweet of him!
I ran home and immediately sautéed the crab claws. To give the seafood dish a nice fragrance, I cooked the crab with freshly grated ginger, roasted garlic, sweet paprika, cayenne powder, a squeeze of lemon juice, sweet basil leaves and dry white wine. I also find that the addition of shallots and a bit of butter enhances just about any dish.
The crab was cooked perfectly; the meat came right out of the shell. And rather than getting messy eating crab at a restaurant, isn't it way better to pig out in the comfort of your own home?

Power Restored for Xcel Energy Customers
Crews repairing Xcel Energy's electricity grid, which was damaged by the ice and snow storm, have been wrapping up their efforts, although some work is still going on.
Spokesman Jim Wilcox says crews have restored power to all customers the company knows about, although he says some can't be hooked up yet because of damage that requires an electrician to make repairs before the company can restore power.
Wilcox says some temporary connections that were made last week to get power restored are now being made permanent.
He says some of the out-of-state crews that have been working with Xcel Energy under mutual aid agreements have been released, but some company crews from Minnesota and Wisconsin and some contract crews are still working.
Some 90,000 customers in Sioux Falls and other communities in South Dakota and southwestern Minnesota experienced outages since the storm hit on April 9.
