For here, or to go? New spot beefs up Barracks Road
Anyone who has discovered the shocking truths behind America's fast food industry through books like Fast Food Nation or documentary films like Super Size Me might wonder why people are still flocking to places like McDonald's for more-more-more of such controversial cuisine.
I, for one, was glad to leave drive-thru lines behind me at Barracks Road Shopping Center this week, where a new burger and fries joint just opened in the space formerly occupied by Chesapeake Bagel Bakery.
Five Guys Burgers and Fries is a simple, fast, affordable place that also happens to be family-run and already famous for treating potatoes, beef, and buns with the respect they deserve.
Maybe that's why the Alexandria-based chain started in the early '90s by Jerry Murrell and his five sons, and now quickly spreading across the region– has received consistently high ratings from Zagat, Washingtonian magazine, and the Washington Post.
In this nostalgic, no-frills, Happy Days kind of place with loud rock 'n roll and refreshingly few choices, there's no freezer. Burgers are made with fresh beef. You can order what you want on the burger (free toppings include everything from fried onions and mushrooms to green and jalapeno peppers), but there's no need to specify how you want these babies cooked.
Hand-shaped patties come out cooked to a perfect medium and are so soft and juicy they remind you of what a burger is supposed to taste like. Same goes for the fries, made from whole potatoes (including traces of the vitamin-rich peel) and fried in 100 percent peanut oil, which is changed twice weekly.
If it sounds like I'm talking about a car, then I should mention that a local environmental group has already asked franchise owner Bill McKechnie if they can use his discarded peanut oil to fuel a new breed of automobile.
Not all potatoes are created equal, and for this reason Five Guys gets its spuds from different states depending on the growing season. A chalkboard in front actually lists the place of origin that day– be it Maine or Idaho. Fries, which come in regular or Cajun flavor, are scooped hot into cups and tossed along with the rest of your order into brown-paper bags.
When you pick up your order, you'll likely be told to keep the bag open– "the fries stay fresher that way." Ample ketchup and bottles of malt-vinegar are on-hand to spike the spuds, right next to a huge box of (free) shelled peanuts. Sesame seed buns are as classic as they get, and like everything else here, are fresh and preservative-free.
Owned and operated by Bill and Marti McKechnie, who recently moved to Charlottesville from Alexandria, Five Guys may bring new life to this formerly quiet niche at Barracks Road.
At the inaugural party on Sunday, September 26 which was also a benefit for Charlottesville's Free Clinic music spilled out into the piazza, and the usually lonely fountain was surrounded by happy burger eaters. I can only imagine how the space will evolve when Panera opens later this season.
Buffet Blindspot
You may never have noticed the pizzeria next to The Tavern on Emmet Street. Perhaps that's because Buffet-Style Pizza allegedly didn't sell single slices. Meadowbrook Shopping Center manager Bill Rice says the restaurant had a yearlong lease but was actually open for only a few months.
That's why he wants to be sure the new tenant would be a likely winner. Owned by Ned Sinnot, a UVA grad, SuperStars Pizza, specializing in gourmet pies and subs, is going strong with a student-friendly location near the University of Richmond.
In Rice's view, Wahoos will love it, too. More on this place as it comes into fuller view.

In 1930 [census], Golda Hitchcock Bradfield lived with her carpenter husband and five children in their rented home on a tree-lined street in downtown Emporia, Kansas. Three more children would be born in the next five years. In the coming decades, the family would learn that Golda had passed on a deadly inheritance.
Golda died of a rare stomach cancer at age 64. Of her eight children, seven would have the gene that makes the disease almost inevitable. Six of the kids died of it, most in their 40s or 50s.
The next generation -- Golda's grandchildren -- watched helplessly as the older generation died too young and wondered what the future held for them. With the advent of a genetic test for the disease -- and the death from stomach cancer of one of that generation -- the remaining cousins were tested. Eleven of them were found to be at risk. Each of them had to decide whether or not to accept the only available option -- to have their stomachs removed.
A drastic step but eventually they all took that option. "We're all going to die of something," Bill Bradford said, "but I know I won't die of stomach cancer."

7,000 seems like a small number to me. I'd take my chances.

Welcome to
A splash of color brings often overlooked beauty back to life again...
Sometimes the simple things go unnoticed. We tend to rush around more and more as time goes on, and our gaze which once beheld the wonder of a simple flower, or a tiny insect, or a bird sitting nearby, now floats over these things - as if they don't exist. Our goal with our Color Splash photos is to breathe life into the simple, small things in life which, over time, become easily ignored by the human eye. Using a minimalistic approach, we carefully select and edit our fine art photos to show vibrant color in certain areas, forcing the human eye to once again notice the beauty of the world in which it partakes.

How to use political influence of Millennials in your research paper
The Millennial generation is the largest generation by population in the United States. Millennials grew up wanted, loved and catered to. Their self-esteem was paramount and they have high expectations, great optimism about the future, and may wield powerful political influence when they vote and run for office.
A good research paper topic for your sociology class may be to write about the political influence of the Millennial generation. Read more

NORTHRIDGE — Toward the latter portion of the second half, Cal State Northridge junior guard Josh Greene lay sprawled on his back, the victim of a collision that rendered him motionless with the beginnings of a discolored mouse under his left eye. Greene, however, proved to be as difficult to keep down as his team in a men's basketball clash Thursday with visiting UC Irvine.
Greene came back to hit consecutive threes in the final two minutes to help propel the Matadors to a 70-61 Big West Conference triumph that left coaches for both teams scratching their heads.
Northridge, which recently lost leading scorer Stephan Hicks to a knee injury, rallied from a 17-point first-half deficit and a 33-24 halftime disadvantage to win its third straight, all without Hicks.
"They have a tough mentality and I give them credit for that," UCI Coach Russell Turner said of Northridge, which has now won four of its last five on the heels of a seven-game losing skid to open conference play. " [The Matadors] had better energy than we had in the second half, no question ... They were physically dominant in the second half. Their team is younger than we are, but they were stronger and they were hungrier."
UCI (12-12, 6-5 in conference), remains starving for success in road conference games, in which it is 1-5. The Anteaters, 5-0 against Big West foes at home, saw Northridge, which made three of its first 21 field-goal attempts, shoot 50% after halftime, including five of 11 from three-point range, to complete a reversal of fortune fueled by effort and grit.
"I challenged them at halftime, and defense won the game," Northridge Coach Bobby Braswell said. "We held them to 37.5% shooting in the second half, and we were plus-nine in rebounding in the second half [after being minus-five in the first 20 minutes]. I'm blessed. I thank the Lord that we don't give up and we kept fighting and kept working. We're playing without [Hicks] and I don't know how we're doing it."
Northridge (13-11, 4-8) ended the first half on a 15-7 run, then scored the first eight points after the break. Greene, who finished with a game-high 21 points, drained his second three-pointer within a span of 27 seconds to give the hosts their first lead at 47-46, with 11:32 remaining.
UCI, which lost a 20-point lead at home on Saturday against UC Santa Barbara, but managed to win on a Mike Wilder three-pointer with eight seconds left, pulled even at 57 when Daman Starring banked in a 10-foot runner with 2:13 left.
But Greene, who exited the game after his blow to the head with 8:30 remaining, returned with a definitive answer. His three-pointer from the left corner put his team ahead for good, 60-57, with 1:50 left. Then, after a UCI miss, Greene swished a three-pointer from the right wing, then scowled, stomped and screamed into the din created by the home crowd, a tangible lightning rod for the emotion that the Matadors seemed to steal from the Anteaters.
"That's just me," said Greene, who was six for 12 from the field, four of seven from three-point range and five of six from the foul line, including three of four in the final 42 seconds. "I wear my heart on my sleeve and I try to give my all."
Turner said his players gave something less than their maximum.
"I was surprised that our team was unable to generate enough energy to play better in the second half, when there is so much riding on every game for our team," Turner said. "I think, we have to do a little self-reflection and ask ourselves how important it is to represent ourselves with our effort the way it should be done in college basketball … at some point, that is a reflection on all of us."
Starring led UCI with 15 points, while Chris McNealy had 12 in 26 minutes off the bench and Alex Young scored 10 and added five assists.
Wilder finished with five points, nine rebounds, three assists and three steals.

This isn't the first time that H-P has surprised Wall Street with unexpected news or news released ahead of schedule.
In fact, when Meg Whitman took over as CEO three years ago, one of things investors and analyst urged her to do was to plug the leaks. (Even though an H-P source tells MarketWatch this wasn't the result of a leak.)
One analyst, complaining about H-P's leaks, told MarketWatch in 2011, "It's amazing. It's like a sieve."

Question again on the job cuts.
Bernstein's Toni Sacconaghi notes that the H-P restructuring has gone from 27,000 job cuts, to 29,000 to 34,000 and now to 50,000. "It feels like it's a whole new restructuring effort."

One question that I'm guessing may come up with this revised restructuring plan is: Will H-P feel more pressure to break up the company?

Whitman just proved that, for H-P, flat is the new up.
"We have had three quarters of flat growth," she said. "To me, that is encouraging because you have to stabilize before you can grow. You can see the improvement in virtually all of the different businesses."
But expect analysts to ask: So what's up with cutting up to 16,000 jobs?

Question again on the job cuts, and what they mean.

Navy Yard building home to Sea Systems Command
WASHINGTON — The shooting Monday at the Navy Yard here took place in Building 197, the headquarters of the Naval Sea Systems Command, an essential component of the country's sea service.
According to the Navy, the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is the largest of the Navy's five system commands. About 3,000 people work in the command headquarters at the Navy Yard.
FULL COVERAGE: Latest updates on Navy Yard gunman, victims
SHOOTING SUSPECT: Who is Aaron Alexis?
INVESTIGATION: Interactive map showing U.S. mass killings
It has an annual budget of almost $30 billion, and the command makes about 25% of the Navy's entire budget. The command has a total workforce of 50,000 civilian, military and contract support personnel. The command engineers, builds, buys and maintains the Navy's ships and submarines and their combat systems, according to the Navy. It has facilities around the world.
The building where the shooting took place is a high-security facility because of the sensitivity of the information handled by the command. It is inside the Navy Yard, itself a military installation that would not allow public access.
A Navy commander says someone was shot right next to him after the two had a brief conversation outside a Navy Yard building where police say a gunman opened fire. (Sept. 16) AP
Most military bases require a sticker to get through the gates. Often base commanders will heighten security by requiring identification checks.
Visitors who don't work there would usually need to be cleared in advance and at some bases they might have their vehicle searched.
The Sea Systems Command headquarters has another layer of security, which requires an additional badge and has turnstiles similar to the Pentagon. The command works with sensitive documents, including equipment test results.
The Navy Yard was established in 1799 and is the oldest shore establishment of the U.S. Navy.
Washington's Navy Yard area has gone through a revitalization in the last five years since the completion of the stadium for the National League's Washington Nationals. It is also close to Capitol Hill.
Police say multiple people have been shot at the Washington Navy Yard on Monday morning, including a police officer, Navy Yard base officer and several civilians. VPC

Nonprofits that can stay afloat do so by having a viable mission statement, ethical, accountable, and transparent practices. Additionally, successful nonprofits recruit working boards and educated staff. They can keep up with technology and social entrepreneurs. A nonprofits mission is at the core of why they are in business whereas the values drive how nonprofits conduct business. Transparency, ethics, accountability must begin within the organization before they move outward.
Leadership should be visible and accessible. In a bottom –up management, management is treated as support and values direct staff. In this model, management attempts to be an enabler not a restrictor. Management treats employees as they want to be treated, leaders are willing to follow. Supervisors provide the tools and training to the frontline employees. They encourage, coach, and mentor staff. A working board understands the mission of the nonprofit and acts in support of the mission. The board works directly with the executive director and/or CEO and evaluates him or her annually. The board will change over time and provides the nonprofit public support. The board is a key asset when the right individuals have been recruited. A nonprofit'sboard is usually responsible for:
- Government reporting
- Policy and organizational goals
- Hiring of ED and/orCEO
- Fiscal and personnel policies compliance
- Nominating of other officers
- Volunteer work
Finally, when making decisions, the nonprofit should keep the following in mind; a) does the action support the organization's mission, b) does the action maintain focus on the organization's priorities, and c) has adequate research been conducted. Keeping the aforementioned will ensure that nonprofits keep focus on their mission and values. For more information and training go to Center for Nonprofit Management or Blue Avacodo's web page.

What is Obviousness?
February 20, 2009 at 11:47 am Leave a comment
Hi, this is Rabbi, Dr. Yosef Freedland, Surgeon, and Patent Attorney on Medical Devices at Appelfeld Zer Fisher.
So exactly how bad is this new ruling about obviousness?
Of course, as usual we need a little bit of background that may be "obvious" to those familiar with patent writing, but may not be "obvious" to the inventor reading the AZF blog.
First: Exactly who determines whether something is obvious? Traditionally this was a person who knows everything but has no creativity. However, one of the ways that the Supreme Court has made obviousness stricter is by alluding to the fact that a person who combines invention A with invention B may in fact possess some creativity.
Going back to our example of the orange juice squeezer on the pump: Let's presume that you made a very unique formula comprising, for example, an epoxy. This epoxy is very efficient in securing a plastic orange juice squeezer to a wooden handle on an air pump. In this case, you might be able to apply and obtain a patent for this unique formula epoxy, but claiming the combination of an air pump and orange juice squeezer with the epoxy, might be deemed obvious, and hence would not be granted a patent. (I say "might" because there may be other "unique" issues involved AND I would not like to be cited in a decision that invalidates your invention of an orange juice squeezer and tire pump.
Second: how bad is it going to be for software patents?
Take a patent you've ever heard of which 'does X over the internet'. Let's say that X is an program that can unite accounting calculations that take place in multiple offices. So now it turns out that doing X, namely uniting multiple accounting calculations from a variety of locations has been known since the days of the horse and buggy. For example, on a given day the first stable only has two horses to attach to a four-horse buggy. So the first stable owner goes to a second stable to borrow two more horses.
On another day, the second stable only has one horse for a six-horse buggy so the second stable owner goes to the first stable and borrow five horses.
The accountants at both stables like to horse around and they calculate the amount of time and the number of horses that have been exchanged. In fact they compare their books and they combined their list together in a single accounting sheet.
Therefore, it turns out that combining accounting calculations from two separate locations has been around long before the Internet. So you come forward with a tremendously great software package that combines accounting calculations from separate locations by utilizing the Internet.
Based upon the new ruling of the Supreme Court, it may just be obvious that to utilize the Internet to combine accounting; even if you're accounting package does more than calculate the number of horses exchanged between two stables. You might say that we are not in a very stable position because we don't know the extent that the Supreme Court will apply this new ruling of obviousness.
For example, we may end up having some problems related to software. Let's say that combining accounting software modules and physical machines like printers and monitors is not very easy; at least according to the complexity of your wonderful invention.
However, it may just be that the new ruling will be used to decide that the biggest nerd in the world who happens to know how to use a hand-held calculator may just have enough creativity to put together everything that you put together in your new invention.
The extent of the Supreme Court ruling intake in KSR versus Teleflex with respect to software patents will become more and more defined as time goes on and there are more rulings regarding software.
OK, so this is Rabbi, Dr. Yosef Freedland, Surgeon, and Patent Attorney signing on how "Obviously" bad obviousness can be for invention.

Don't rule out Michael Vick from this week's game against the Washington Redskins just yet. At least not officially.
Vick was not at Philadelphia Eagles practice Wednesday as he recovers from his concussion, but coach Andy Reid said he wasn't ruling out the quarterback. Vick's headaches have subsided, which is a positive. Nick Foles will get the starter snaps at practice, which says it all.
Reid indicated earlier in the week that Vick suffered a "significant" concussion, so we'd be stunned if he played. The Eagles' season essentially is over, and it's a perfect time to get a look at what rookie quarterback Nick Foles could do in Reid's system, at least while Reid's system still exists in Philadelphia.
When asked if Vick would play again this season, Reid replied, "Yeah, I think so. I've just got to see. I don't know that," according to NFL.com and NFL Network's Kimberly Jones.
UPDATE: Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin told Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer that he spoke to Vick on Tuesday, though the two players didn't discuss when the quarterback would be back. "He wasn't in la-la land," Maclin said of Vick.

Annual Retreat Held by Sophs

just a couple of days away from it all makes a lot of difference to
the average student at Bethel. The third ,annual sophomore retreat pro ,
vided what was needed in the way of relaxation and spiritual growth.
Friday,,Jan. 21, thirty-five sophs. left Bethel for Camp Ihduhapi. The
freshly fallen snow and the crisp cool weather made it a perfect time
for an outing. Six of the fellows were privileged to have maid service
in the persons of Muriel Thompson and Shirley Daley, who made up
their beds.
The evening was filled with fun, tobogganing, and games in the
lodge. Sally Tierney was the undefeated pillow fight champion until
Muriel challenged and won her title. The evening was closed with a
worship service.
Saturday morning some of the boys were up bright and early-2 a.m.
It seems that the heater in their cabin ran out of oil. Bud Waage said
that it was so cold in the cabin that they had to open the, windows to
warm up the place.
Tobogganing and ice skating were the main outdoor events Satur-day:
A Bible study group met and discussed the sixth chapter of Romans
for some two hours. Saturday afternoon was free time. Myrt Rehnberg
studied Soc., Avis Johnson wrote Danny a post card, and Hubby gave
Miss Ryberg a piano lesson.
At 7 p.m. a movie, "The Power of God," was shown. Following this,
a group hiked across the lake to an island. Mr. Anderson used Stretch
for a sled part of the way. Marcia, Ruth, Elna, and Muriel were busy
trying to get someone to fall for them (they were tripping the fellows).
The evening was brought to a climax with a message from the Rev.
Carroll, camp speaker.

Gospel Teams
Keep Active
Bethel has a number of active
gospel teams which may not be
known about by the rest of the
students. These teams, averaging
eleven or twelve per week, repre-sent
from fifty to seventy stud-ents
going out.
Each team consists of a song
leader, speaker, those with musical
talents and others who can serve
in some way. The average team is
about five or six persons. There
are a few organiied groups, but
most of them change from time to
The teams travel within a radius
of eighty to one hundred miles.
Some have travelled as far as
Iowa, Wisconsin, and Northern
Minnesota. They go to churches,
missions, hospitals, and state men-tal
hospitals. Since Christmas there
have been fewer requests for
school gospel teams, but there are
hopes for better opportunities
after Founder's Week.
The money received by the
groups is turned into the Religious
Council treasury which pays the
expenses of the trips.
Students that may in interested
in using their talents for the Lord
may be added to the teams. More
groups are needed to represent the
school In this way.
The gospel teams organization is
also looking for teachers for child
. evangelism.
Members of B.W.A. attended a
New Year Birthday party in ob-servance
of their first meeting in
the new year. Tables were decorat-ed
to suggest various months of
the year and those having birth-days
in the same month dined to-gether.

Swedes Skate
On Snowy Rink
On Tues., Jan. 25, the Swedish
Club sponsored a skating party on
the campus rink as a part of their
regular monthly meeting. About
fifteen hardy Vikings defied the
threats of oncoming examinations
to brave the wintery blasts of
King Boreas.
After an hour of invigorating
frolic, the Swedes huhg up their
skates and retreated to the cheery
warmth of the dining hall where
they joined the more timid mem-bers
of their clan in a social hour.
Gus Tillman, President of the
club, led the program for the even-ing.
Music was presented by War-ren

A Chance to Prove
On January 20, 1949 Harry S. Truman stood on his own. Not as the
man elevated by accident but on his own as President selected by the
American people to be a vehicle of their will. HiS inauguration meant
that he would be judged by what his administration did with the grant
of power from the American people.
The campaign of 1948 was a review of the performance of Tru-man's
administration. The opposition contended that his administra-tion
had not acted satifactorily on urgent national measures. That
it was time for a change. Against this contention he held before the
people "the Republican do-nothing 80th Congress," that "second
worst Congress in history," which provided for him an unshakable
alibi for the failure of his first
administration to adequately act
on urgently n e e d e d national
He told the people: Give me the
tools and we will do the job. We
will do the job that must be done
on prices: on housing, and on
health and education, on civil
rights and on labor.
The people were convinced. He
was elected. The control of both
branches of Congress was given to
his party.
Upon him the responsibility of
leadership squarely rests. He must
deliver the goods. If he fails to
secure the enactment of the pro-mised
legistlation, if there is a
failure, of prosperity he will be held
All Americans, regardless of
their party label, will wish him
well toward the goal of a "Fair
Deal" for all. And certainly if he
does his part and we as patriotic
citizens do our part we'll get along
in '49.

Chapel Quotes
"If we want to know of God, we
must first have the right attitude
toward God . . . If we are saved
the prime motive of our lives must
be to make Christ known."
Rev Harvey
"We have Just begun in the way
of God . . . If there was ever a
time for the knowledge, the pro-gress,
and the power of God, it Is
today . It is one thing to know
God, but it is another thing to
know him intimately . . . The
decision that you make even today
will mean much in the moulding
of the, future life. What you choose
today will determine what will be
your destiny tomorrow."

Christian life, the more aware we
become of our unworthiness."

"Pray ye therefore" the Lord of the harvest continues in his appeal.
This is the initial response. Prayer is the bas,ic expression and concern
of every individual who is desirous of sharing in the harvest. Having
prayed the publican's prayer of forgiveness the Christian is on speak-ing
terms with God as one of His family and immediately shares the
responsibility to pray about this

Christ as he knelt with a former
Salvation Army Captain in one
of the rooms in the Army barracks,
Warren, now a Junior here at
Bethel, had been invited to attend
a series of gospel meetings with
the Captain and, coming under con-viction,
talking privately with his
friend and quietly accepted the
Lord. Later he learned he had been
the only unsaved individual in the
meetings and was impressed by
the group's persistence in seeking
to bring him to the Lord.
Immediately following salvation,
Warren was called into Christian
work. After considering several
schools, he applied to Bethel upon
release from the Army. This he did
although his high school education
lacked a year of being completed.
The Lord opened doors and the ex-

Warren's life is a testimony to
the fact that the Christian experi-ence
is an experience of progres-sion.
Recently this student dis-covered
the full force of crucified
living. The effectual working of a
crucified life is not feeling, but
faith, he maintains. It is not com-plicated,
but simple.
"Christ has to be in everything
in my life — my food, clothes,
studies—if I would be really dead
to self. Then I can say I am
crucified to self and dead to sin."
For proof of this statement, War-ren
has suggested a careful read-ing
of Gal. 2:20.

ento of Z5bougbt
By President Wingblade
An outstanding leader who had
attained great success and pro-minence
was once asked the secret
of his success. He replied. "I had
a friend."
Now, this may sound like what
we call "pull," but we must re-member
that no one is likely to
pull for another unless he, sees
something there worth pulling for.
And then also "pull" may get the
position, but it will not hold it.
And so, to have a friend, one
must prove himself worthy of that
friend. It was the venerable Dr.
Samuel Johnson who said in his
peculiar authoritative tone,
"Friendship, Sir, must be kept in
constant repair."
But it is the brilliant Elizabe-than,
Francis Bacon, who comes
with his delineations on the fruits
of friendship.
First, a friend relives or opens
up the emotions or the heart. A
great sorrow is halved when we
share it with a friend, whereas a
great joy is doubled
Second, friendship relives or
clarifies the mind or the under-standing—
when we talk the prob-lem
over with a friend. He may be
wiser than we are or equal to us
or even our inferior; but, in any
case, it helps to think the matter
out in his presence — aloud; to
throw it on the screen, as it were.
Then, third, a friend is another
self. A father, for instance, can
talk to his son only as a father,
but a friend can talk to him as a
distinguished banker or doctor or
lawyer or minister.
And a friend can do for you
when in trouble what you might
never be able to do for yourself;
for, if you did it, you might be
scorned and be called selfish and
scheming. But when the friend
does it in your stead, he gains hon-or
for his thoughtfulness and gen-erosity.
A friend, then, is another self—
another , hand, as it were. And so
the three-fold field of friendship
has to do with the heart, the head,
and the hand.
But, of course, true friendship is
not selfish. It does not exist for
the purpose of getting something
from the other. One of the most
beautiful friendships across the
years was that between Theodore
Roosevelt and Jacob Riis. We are
told that it remained firm to the
end, and we are told that the rea-son
was that neither asked any-thing
of the other. The one be-came
the most powerful ruler in
the world—the other never took
advantage of the friendship.
But this is beautiful. When
Jacob Riis, who was New York's
great editor and philanthropist,
had written that great book How
the Other Half Lives, Roosevelt
called in his office and found him
out. Theodore Roosevelt left a
note, "Have read your book. Want
to help."
Sermon of Life
Our birth is the text. Youth the
introduction. During manhood we
lay down a few propositions and
prove them. Some passages are
dull and some sprightly. Then

Benediction is pronounced. The
book is closed. It is getting cold.

face the dun
Don't hunt after trouble, but look for success;
You'll find what you look for—don't look for distress.
If you see but your shadow, remember, I pray,
That the sun is still shining but you're in the way.
Don't grumble, don't bluster, don't dream, and don't shirk;
Don't think of your worries, but think of your work.
The worries will vanish, the work will be done;
. No man sees his shadow who faces the sun.
—Leaves of Gold
Constraining Call
Every Christian has a responsibility in God's harvest field. The
moment we are recipients of God's grace in salvation we are entrusted
simultaneously with the duty as well as the privilege of gathering in
the sheaves.
"The harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few" is the chal-lening
message from the Lord of the harvest. Piercing words are,
these coming to the conscientious follower of Christ with convicting
constraint. Who can be a Christian and escape or evade the force of
this message'? Who will want to stand before the Lord of the harvest
at the end of life's way having been heedless to this constraining
call to service?
great harvest.
"Pray—the Lord of the harvest
to send forth laborers" the Lord
continues in his challenge to his
follower. This is the basic request
every Christian should fervently
pray. He who is earnest about
this surely will receive his ap-pointment
from the Lord of the
Harvest and recognize his respon-sibility
in giving and going. Surely
the Lord of the harvest would not
withhold His best plan in guiding
the one who "prays the Lord of
the harvest' to the most effective
and efficient place of service.
Prayer and obedience precedes
genuine service in the Lord's har-vest
—Samuel Schultz
Relation to Christ Basic In
Bethelites Devotional Life
"Will Bethel be increasingly Bethel because you are here?" President
Wingblade asked that of each of us in his challenging message prefacing
our school directory. At the mid-point of the school year can you answer,
Bethel is built upon the Rock, Christ Jesus. We who are the
body of Christ make Bethel a living organism. Are, we, through our
lives, building it up or tearing it down?
Basic in a Bethelite's college life is his relationship with the Lord
Jesus. Our recent chapel services have especially emphasized the im-portance
of a personal devational life. God has moved the hearts of many
students to confess their short-comings along this line to Him, and to
confess their sins one to another.
Prayer and burden for souls have characterized the spiritual
advance made lately among the students. Scripture has been made
to live in and through them by the Holy Spirit. Victories over un-confessed
sin are causes for rejoicing in many hearts.
We know that these can be numbered among those who are helping
make Bethel increasingly Bethel—through the power of God in their
Election Practice of Bethel
Organizations Needs Revamping
Leadership is one of the most important elements of our modern
society. Leadership is important to Bethel just as it is anywhere or to
any group. It exists, not only as a help but as a necessity. It would be
well for all of us as students to think a lot of this thing—leadership.
Leadership is deserving of our consideration, as well, because it is
a principle of God's Work. We have a responsibility to them because of
their position. They have a responsibility to the group as well. In our,
so-called, democratic system, leaders have a responsibility by virtue
of their election. The group has responsibility not only of following
and supporting, but reflecting at the time of election.
There has been a tendency on the Campus to complain about leader-ship
and elections—and possibly justly. Leadership of almost every
organization has been in the hands of a relatively smaller number; and
undoubtedly many students, capable of leadership, go unused on the
campus at the same time and who, if used, could spread leadership
and develop not only individuals but the group thereby.
One of the basic reasons for this lies in our nominations and
election systems. Almost every officer is n o m i n at e d by a
relatively small group of students and as a result the same students,
few in number, are nominated for most elections. This is partially the
fault of our system of nominations which could be changed but over
which the student body has almost no control, and partially because
the student body sits idly by until. officers are nominated and elected
and then begin to complain.
One of the most recent events in relation to this subject and an
excellent example is the election of the officers for the Lads. A ballot
was placed in the mail boxes and requested to be returned. From these
returned ballots were selected the officers for the coming year. No one
knew where the nominations came from nor how nor why selected.

Indian forward, LeRoy Sandberg, has fallen into a rut that, if con-tinued
in, might bring him high scoring honors at the close of the sea-son.
In the last game with Austin, LeRoy totaled 10 points, each goal
having been netted just when the spirit of the fans needed it most. In
the Concordia game, "Sandy" was top scorer for the Indians by dump-ing
in 13 points. Last Friday night's game at Northland showered more
honors on Mr. Sandberg when he topped both teams in individual
scoring by netting 14 markers. He is definitely a threat to his opponents,
and I might add, to Mr. Greenman.

having planned such a successful basketball program for both girls and

Indians Meet Luther Tonight at Hamline
In the second period, Kenny
Greenman, the Indians leading
scorer, started out with three goals
and Unruh and Sandberg followed
with a goal apiece which put the
Indians in front 20-12. A freethrow
by Moline together with two goals
by Austin made the socer stand
21-16 at halftime.
The Indians defense slowed
down somewhat in the third half,
enabling the Austin five to tie the
score twice. Once at 25 apiece and
once at 27 apiece; however, Austin
was not able to go ahead, and the
Indians pushed back out in front
to end the third period 31-29.
LeRoy Sandberg, Indian star
forward, started out the final per-iod
by banking in a goal. Austin
then netted a goal which was fol-lowed
by a Bethel free throw.
Sandberg then again hit the net
for two points for the Indians.
Two successive goals were then
made by the Austin five, bringing
them within one point of the In-dians,
36-35. Cheers arose from the
Bethel fans as Dischiner hit from
the middle of the key hole and
Sandberg again made a push shot
from the back court, making the
score read 40-35. Austin then gain-ed
two more points with only one
minute of playing time remaining.
Again Austin added two points
making the morgin only 40-39, with
the Indians still leading.
Greenman was then fouled and
he stepped into the keyhole to take
his shot with only 30 seconds of
playing time remaining. His shot
missed and rolled off the back-board
into the hands of an Austin
guard. Austin worked the ball
down into their court and a shot
was taken which was missed, how-ever,
Uher made a tip-in good, and
put his team out in front 41-40. As
the Indians brought the ball back
down into their court a long shot
was taken just as the final horn
sounded, and it was missed, and
Austin emerged the victors, 41-40.
Sports Sketch
Everett Schlader, colorful sopho-more,
came to Bethel from his
home town in Green Bay, Wis.
Red, as he is commonly called,
stands 5 feet 9 inches, weighs 145
pounds, has bluish-green eyes, and
wavy red hair.
Although enrolling here at Bet-hel
only last fall, Red is well
known by his reputation of play-ing
a fine game of basketball. Red
holds down a guard positiod on the
Indians regular cage quintet, and
is noted for his quick passes, ball
handling ability, and scrapy de-fensive
playing. The redheaded
athlete shoots from any position
on the playing court with equal
amount of accuracy.
In Red's younger days, he at-tended
East Green Bay High
school, where he was a regular
on the basketball five. Red also
participated in tennis, and in
1942, he was a member of his
high school tennis team that won
the Wisconsin State champion-ship.
During the war, Red spent four
years with the Maritime Service as
a Deck Officer. Most of these four
years were spent out at sea.
Before coming to Bethel, Red
completed one year of college at
Bob Jones University, during
which time he further developed
his basketball playing ability.
Red also participated in an-other
of his favorite sports—
golf. He is now waiting for the
snow to melt away, and the
grass to get in shape so that he
can try out his new set of golf-clubs
on the Twin City courses.
Regarding his future, Red states
that as yet his plans are not too
definite, but he intends to gradu-ate
from Bethel, majoring in Psyc-hology,
and then he considers go-ing
into the teaching profession.
Gymnastic Class
Begins Training
The gymnastic dream of so many
of our able Bethel men is finally
here. Under the able direction of
Ernie Davis, 20 athletic future
gymnasts gathered/ together Jan.
10, to view the prospects of the
growth of a gymnast team here
on Bethel campus.
Last Monday, the newly organiz-ed
class met and went through
their first workout. The equipment
available to the team is good; how-ever,
there is not enough to ade-quately
supply the needs of the
team. The team is in need of a
trampolin, Roman bars, horizontal
bars, ropes and rings, and a spring
Ernie Davis, a professional gym-nast,
has willingly accepted to
coach a gymnastic team if such a
team were organized at Bethel.
Ernie stated that he be-lieves
that a gymnastic team can
be developed at Bethel that will
be able to meet the competition
of larger schools.
First Time
Teams Meet
This Season
Tonight on the Hamline court,
the Indian cagers will encounter
the Luther Junior College cage
team in their sixth conference
game of the season. Varsity game
time will begin at 8:15 p.m., and
a preliminary game between the
local "B" team and the Luther
academy team will begin at 7:00
During last year's basketball sea-son,
the Indians trampelled Luther
twice. When the Bethel- team visit-ed
Luther the host was topped 64-
44, and again on their home court
the Indians overpowered the
Luther five 75-53.
Out of five conference games
played so far this season the Ind-ians
have won 3 and lost 3.
The probable starting line up for
Bethel will be Unruh and Sanberg
at forwards, Greenman at the cen-ter
spot, and Schlader and Dischin-ger
at guards.
held to 8 points in the third quar-ter
and the third period ended
with Bethel out in front 38-29.
The Indians's fast passing guard,
"Red" Schlader, netted a long push
shot from the back court to start
off the final period. Carlson then
dropped in a short shot and the
next Indian goal came when Dis-chinger,
Indian speedy Guard,
swished a set shot from the back
of the key-hole. Unruh then scored
two straight goals which gave his
team a ten point lead, 49-39. Green-man
then sunk two straight free
throws and once again Unruh hit
the hoop on a short shot. Green-man
and Dischinger each followed
with a charity toss apiece and
Carlson made the final goal for the
Indians which ended the game
56-45, Bethel's favor.

In the closing seconds of their game with Austin, held at the Ham-line
Gym on Monday, Jan. 17, the Indians bowed to the visitors with a
one point margin of 41-40. The Bethel five led throughout the game
until, with 30 seconds to go in the final period, Uher, Austin's top
scoring forward, tipped in the goal that gave his team the one point
victory margin.
Top scorers for the Indians were Greenman and Sandberg, who
totaled 12 and 10 points respectively. Unruh totaled 6 points, Disch-inger
5, Moline 4, Schlader 2, and Carlson 1.
The Indians took the lead in the opening period when Dischinger
dropped in a free throw and Greenman followed with two successive
layin shots to give them a 5-0 lead before Austin was able to score. A
goal apiece by Monne and Unruh followed by a completed charity toss
by Greenman helped the local cagers to maintain a 10-7 lead at the
close of the first quarter.
Northland Tops
Indians, 64-53
Last Friday night, January 28,
1949, the Indian cagers lost to a
strong Northland College quintet
by a score of 64-53. The event was
a non-conference game.
Although the Indian quintet was
on the low end of the score, they
did take some honors in other de-partments.
LeRoy Sandberg was
high scorer between the two teams
by netting 14 points and Kenny
Greenman followed second by
totalling 12 markers. The Bethel
team dumped in 25 of their at-tempted
31 free tosses to give them
an 83% average.
In their season opener at Mac-alester
Gym last November 20th,
the Indians also lost to the North-land
"Lumberjacks" by a 2 point
greater margin than this recent
tilt, 65-52.
Sandberg Sparks Team
In Concordia Victory
Last Saturday night the Indian cagers overpowered Concordia
College of St. Paul by a score of 56-45 giving the Indians three wins and
two losses in Conference play. LeRoy Sandberg was high scorer for
Bethel by totaling 13 points. Kenny Greenman and Pete Unruh followed
close behind by each scoring 12 points.
The Bethel five started out with an early lead which was not over-come
by Concordia at any time during the game. Sandberg started the
scoring for Bethel by droping in a
lay-in shot. Four more points by
Sand'berg added to goals made by
Schlader and a completed free toss
by Greenman gave the Indians a
11-7 lead at the end of the first
Sandberg again started the Beth-el
scoring in the second period.
Schlader followed with a long goal
and Moline and Unruh each added
a free toss. Sandberg then sunk a
short shot and followed with a
completed free throw and before
the horn sounded to end the half,
Unruh dropped in a lay-in shot.
Concordia narrowed their loosing
margin to within one point of Beth-el
and the halftime score ended
with Bethel out in front, 22-21.
Bethel's leading scorer, Kenny
Green ma n, started off the
seco/ nd half scoring by net-ting
two successive goals which
were followed by a lay-in shot by
Sandberg. Carlson then goaled a
hook shot and Greenman added a
charity toss. Unruh then netted a

"Swedish aspirins!" came the
mis-fired field goal.
Now one problem that has
bothered me for several years is
being re-cinema-ted in my mind.
The side door (north) of Old Main
is the setting.
Why hasn't some campus public-ty
agent already seized the wal-loping
big-time chance it offers?
Just take a quickie on how many
thousands of indiciduals cross the

Well, the sophomores who "retreated" are back in the front lines
again, filled with glowing reports of a wonderful week end. Spiritual
blessings from the Lord, fellowship around His Word, outdoor sports and
indoor games made this time unforgettable. Everyone agrees that there
was only one thing wrong with the retreat—it was too short.
Both chaperones were extremely popular—particularly with the
zoology and Spanish students. Its amazing how Prof. Anderson could
continue to beat Wes Fersline at checkers! And how interested Elna
Wintersteen was in Miss Ryberg's talks on Mexico!
But it was while we were climbing back up the hill after a smooth
toboggan ride that Ruth Gustafson said, "Let's herring-bone back up,"
and Avis Johnson groaned, "Yes, but the worst part of it is that you
look like a herring-bone when you reach the top."
However, just a word of warning. Don't ever go on a toboggan when
Frank Doten is the driver, or in any way has anything to do with it.
All he had to do was touch the thing and it was jinxed so that every-one
took a spill. No wonder the hill became bare in a few hours.
Sleeping quarters were excellent. However, Cliff (Thermo) Ander-son
and Don (Stat) Sheldon were in the room with the thermostat. The
first night they had us so cold we were numb. (Also, someone had
opened a window in our room, which made it all of 10 above. They're
still trying to find out who it was. I know, but can't tell.) The next
night they set the thermostat up to 85! Need I say more?
The other day Art Burgeson said: Bud and I put our heads
together on this. Bud Waage: Yeah,
we had a board meeting.

THE CLARION Wednesday, February 2, 1949
Alexis Society
Reviews the Job
OF Rural Pastor
The Alexis Socieyt met Tuesday
evening, January 18, to consider
some phases of "Working in the
Rural Church."
A panel discussion was present-ed,
which was led by Rudy Fors-man.
Doug Stimers presented the
problems of the administration of
the rural church. Mr. Stimers stat-ed
that the rural pastor must both
know something of business princi-ples,
and be a psychologist.
He brought out these three
points as important to church ad-ministration:
1. The pastor have
a definite goal to guide his church
toward. 2. He must be aware of
new methods. 3. He must be alert
to adapt his methods to the needs
of his church.
Mr. Stimers also discussed some
of the problems of the rural pas-tor,
such as the seasonal problem
(harvest time etc), the effects of
the weather, the distance of his
people from the church, and the
farmer's seasonal income.
He pointed out that the pastor
cannot do everything. He must be
able to get his people to do things
for themselves, and act as coordin-ator.
Reuben Dahl spoke on visitation
work in a rural church. It is an
important way to reach people be-cause
often the ones who need the
Gospel don't come to church. Also
it helps the pastor know the needs
of his congregation better.
Who should be visited? The sick,
the bereaved, all your church mem-bers,
and all unsaved in your com-munity.
The best time for visiting
is between 1-5 P. M.
Mr. Dahl gave these.points as a
summary of visitation methods: 1.
Be spiritually prepared. 2. Your
call should have a purpose,. 3. Get
to the point immediately. 4. Learn
by doing. 5. Be systematic. 6. Get
out and get going.
A helpful open-question period
was held at the close of the panel.
At the social time in the Coffee
Shop, Wally Peterson demonstrat-ed
how some magic tricks can be
used to draw a spiritual lesson.
VA Releases Date 16
On GI Insurance
Two Veteran Administration re-leases
were received this week per-taining
to National Service Life
Insurance. The essence of this in-formation
is as follows:
Those veterans who have drop-ped
their G.I. insurance still can
reinstate by passing a physical ex-amination.
Those who did not have
the coverage while in service may
also get it by passing the examina-tion.
Secondly, the term policies of
many ex-servivemen will expire
during the coming year, and it is
explained that under a recent law
these policies may be renewed for
another five-year period.
It is warned that the customary
30-day grace period does not apply
in renewing term insurance and
urges veterans to make renewal
well in advance of the expiration
date of the policy.
To the question, "Is National
Service Life Insurance transfer-able
to private companies?" it is
stated that NSLI is convertible
only to one or more of the six per-manent
plans issued by the Veter-ans

About this time of the year we hear a lot of basketball around
school. Last week I warned you that you would be getting my predic-tions
in the two big leagues. Here they are:

Minnesota Team No. 7
Ohio State Team No. 1
Michigan Team No. 2
Indiana Team No. 8
Purdue Team No. 4
Northwestern Team No. 3
Wisconsin Team No. 5
If you want the predictions on the Conference games you'll have
to see the sports editor. It takes an expert to predict in that league.
Bethel will do all right. By the way, how's your school spirit.
Founders Week last year brought warm weather and practically
no snow. This year it looks like it will be the opposite. Regardless of
the weather, we are certain to have
a wonderful time with so many of
the pastors at Bethel for the week.
Wonder where they will sleep this
Last year they were in the re-creation
room of the boy's dorm,
but with classes there this year
it would be too much like old times
for them—sleeping through classes.
Every now and then someone
comes out with another of those

houses were put at one long
table, they would reach." Bud
Waage: "What's that ladle I saw
you eating with last night?" Roy
Johnson: "That's no ladle, that's
my knife."
By the way, Audrey Holstedt is
still looking for the boatload of
men that's supposed to come in.

NYCC to Present
Plan In Folder
The National Youth Organiza-tion
committee is busily preparing
for its Founder's week presenta-tion
of a Conference Youth Fellow-ship.
This will be essentially the first
formal introduction of the plans
for a national youth group within
the Conference. By giving it during
Founder's week it is hoped to en-list
the aid of the pastors and
leading laymen in promoting such
an organization. '
A folder is being drawn up at
this time to present the necessary
facts. It will give the following in-formation
in the, form of vital
statisics: 1. What has been done
so far by the committee, and 2.
What there is yet to be done.
The NYOC will confer with three
members from the Conference
board of youth work during Foun-der's
week. At this meeting a
tentative constitution for the group
will be drafted.
Marge Helgren
Girl's Dorm Pres.
Long locks of sandy red hair,
dancing blue-green eyes, 5 feet, 7
inches of vivacity, and a motiva-ting
love for the Lord she serves,
characterize Marge Helgren, a
sophomore from Chicago, Ill.
Marge is a well-known figure in
campus activity, perhaps seen most
often serving salads or dishing
desserts behind the chow-line, but
filling the office of president of
the Girl's Dorm Council, and vice-president
of the BWA, and partici-pating
in the Chapel choir.
Her previous year's activities in-clude
circulation manager for the
Clarion, vice-president of the fresh-man
class for one quarter, and
membership on the girls' basket-ball
Off campus, Marge finds time in
her busy schedule to teach a Sun-day
school class at the Lake Park
Baptist church, and also to work
at the Ober Boys' Club mission.
Her other interests include a varie-ty
of sports— volleyball, basket-ball,
and swimming—and she says
she is trying to learn to ice-skate
at present.
Marge has been majoring in
chemistry and zoology with the in-tention
of going into nurses' train-ing
after graduation this summer.
She is not sure now, however, that
that is just what the Lord would
have her do, but is trusting Him
to lead her in preparing her to
answer the call she received one
day while at study, two years ago.
Laying aside her book for a
moment of rest and thinking of
nothing in particular Marge heard
a voice saying, "I want you on the
mission field." The answer of her
heart was, "I'll go"—not IF, but
"WHERE you want me to go."
After graduation she hopes to
spend the summer teaching Bible
school, and then Is considering en-tering
either Moody Bible Institute
or Swedish Covenant Hospital.

Workshop Proceeding
Linkages Between Arctic Warming and Mid-Latitude Weather Patterns, Summary of a Workshop (2014)Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate
The National Research Council held a workshop in September 2013 to review the connections between Arctic warming and mid-latitude weather patterns, to discuss gaps in understanding, and to explore future research needs. Presenters and participants at the workshop (see list of participants) included many leading researchers in this realm with a diverse array of perspectives. Several hypotheses for how Arctic warming may be influencing mid-latitude weather patterns have been proposed. For example, Arctic amplified warming could lead to a weakened jet stream, resulting in more persistent weather patterns in the mid-latitudes. These linkages are the subject of active research. Many workshop participants noted that research on the Arctic influence on mid-latitude weather is still young, making it difficult to draw conclusions regarding the existence of such linkages or their mechanisms.

From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...This is a nice recipe to have on hand when you're responsible for providing meeting sweets and treats. The recipe can be made with a bowl and wooden spoon if need be, and while it comes together quickly, I've found that the flavor of the bread vastly improves if it is made the day before you plan to serve it. The original recipe, which can be found here, was developed by Susan Reid for Bon Appetit magazine and the cranberries make it a perfect quick bread to serve at this time of year. The addition of cornmeal adds a nice, slightly grainy texture to the bread and gives the crust wonderful color. This is one of those recipes that will neither make nor break your reputation as a cook. It is a filler. The bread is easy to make and it's nice to have a loaf for those unplanned eventualities that seem to occur at this time of year. Here's how it is made.
Maple Flavored Cranberry and Cornmeal Quick Bread...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite courtesy of Bon Appetit magazine
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 cup unbleached all purpose flour
1 cup white whole wheat flour or regular whole wheat flour
1 cup medium-grind whole grain cornmeal or regular cornmeal
1/2 cup sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1-1/4 cups buttermilk
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon maple extract
3/4 cup chopped pecans plus 10 pecan halves for garnish
3/4 cup dried cranberries (about 4 ounces)
1) Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 x 5 x 3-inch metal loaf pan with nonstick spray.
2) Whisk both flours, cornmeal, sugar, salt, and baking powder in large bowl. Whisk buttermilk, melted butter, maple syrup, eggs, and extract in medium bowl. Add buttermilk mixture to flour mixture, stirring to blend. Fold in chopped pecans and cranberries. Spoon batter into pan. Arrange pecan halves in row down center of batter.
3) Bake bread until top is golden brown and paring knife inserted into center of bread comes out clean, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Tent bread loosely with foil if browning too quickly. Cool in pan on rack 20 minutes. Turn out onto rack; cool. Yield 1 loaf.

Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission: Creating Better Health for Women, Children and Families
March 8, 2011
This week, we celebrate International Women's Day. According to the World Health Organization, HIV/AIDS is the leading cause of death among women between the ages of 15-44, and nearly 60 percent of the people living with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa are women. Throughout the week, PEPFAR will be highlighting its work in addressing gender and the needs of women in this epidemic.
Pregnant women in developing countries face a range of obstacles in getting health services they need, including support to protect their babies from HIV. Mother-to-child transmission is a significant cause of new HIV infections among children worldwide. Yet interventions to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) are extraordinarily effective. Without PMTCT, 25-40 percent of babies of HIV-positive mothers will be born infected; with PMTCT that number can be reduced to below 5 percent. PMTCT has a triple life-saving benefit: saving the life of the woman, protecting her newborn from HIV infection, and protecting the family from orphanhood. Because it works so well and touches so many lives, PMTCT is a smart investment for PEPFAR -- high-impact and cost-effective.
In 2010 alone:
- PEPFAR directly supported HIV counseling and testing for nearly 8.4 million pregnant women;
- More than 600,000 HIV-positive pregnant women received antiretroviral prophylaxis to prevent mother-to-child transmission; and
- Through these PMTCT efforts, more than 114,000 children are estimated to have been born HIV-free.
Since its creation, PEPFAR has dramatically increased its focus on saving lives through the elimination of mother-to-child transmission. In 2010, PEPFAR established "PMTCT Acceleration Plans" for six countries with high rates and burden of maternal-to-child transmission. PMTCT Acceleration Plans provided $100 million in additional FY 2010 PEPFAR funding -- above the more than $956 million being spent on PMTCT from FY 2004-2009 -- to fund plans targeting bottlenecks to expanding services. Based on the encouraging early results of this effort, PEPFAR has continued this funding in FY 2011.
These efforts to address PMTCT have benefits for overall health care for women. Linking HIV testing with antenatal care helps to identify women who are in need of care. In addition, counseling and testing can help women who are HIV-negative remain negative. The availability of these additional services also provide an incentive for women to seek antenatal care. In Kenya, for example, strong linkages between PMTCT, maternal and child health and other programs dramatically increased program coverage, allowing programs to focus on the needs of each woman and family in a more holistic way.
PEPFAR reflects America's deep commitment to improve the health of women around the world. When women are healthy, they are better able to keep their families and communities together, leading to benefits for all of us. Our PMTCT programs are truly smart investments that save lives.
