Superstition (US - DVD R1)
Gabe has given up on telling stupid people not to enter haunted houses...
A long time ago, an evil witch is strung up and burned by an angry mob (a mob that, in this film, equals about fourteen shouting extras). I'm sorry, she was strung up and drowned, not burned (honestly it's hard to remember these things when a plot is so unimportant). Anyway, while very '80s make-up air bladders ebb and flow on her face, the witch swears vengeance. Apparently she was a little busy in the after life, because after killing the inquisitor who tortured her, she waits about two hundred years to reap anymore beyond the grave vengeance. Some idiots move into the house and begin renovating, despite the fact that they keep getting killed in blatantly supernatural ways.
I never liked The Amityville Horror. Like The Omen, I've always felt that it was an Exorcist cash-in that was somehow mistaken for an important film. The film made money and had fans so inevitably it spawned cash-ins of its own. It's not as if movies about haunted houses were invented in the '70s, but there is a series of specific Amityville Horror rip offs. My personal favourite would have to be Umberto Lenzi's Ghost House, but then, I've always been partial to Italian cash-ins.
Superstition (also known as The Witch), a Canadian made film, jumped on the Amityville bandwagon a little late, in 1982, but was released just in time for the superior Poltergeist (though some accounts state it wasn't actually released in the States until 1985). The film is most well known for its gory death scenes, but little else. Frankly, it's a boring film, spiked with admittedly inspired bouts of violence. The supporting actors are decent, but look just as bored as I was, and the leads are all wholly uninteresting and flat. The plot is basically a way of lining up the next set piece, but the set pieces themselves are too far between.
So why would anyone want to watch such a film? Again, all I can come back to are the death scenes. The film opens with a prank, which lands a teenager's head in a microwave, where it waits to explode in the face of a friend. How the head got in the microwave may be a valid question, but most gore-hound fans will forget to ask when a second teenager is sliced in half by one of the haunted house's windows while trying to escape minutes later. Another moment of violent inspiration comes when a priest is killed by a runaway saw blade, which bores itself into his chest like one of the Phantasm razor balls.
Had Superstition kept this energy level up its full runtime, there may've been some call for its underrated cult status, but alas, it's bogged down by boring exposition and stupid characters speaking.
Another problem with the film is the fact that director James W. Roberson seems to have little understanding of suspense, or perhaps overestimates his work's the fear quotient, because every scare set up goes on far too long. At only eighty minutes, this film is still too long. Every time a character wandered through the catacombs of the house looking for an associate or clue to the murders, I lost interest long before the inevitable bloody accident even took place. With the employment of the fast-forward button the film may be a minor classic, unfortunately, the editors at DVDActive seem to want me to watch a film in its entirety before I make my assessment.
Anchor Bay, the reigning king of excrement polishing, has done another fine job here in making a low-budget film from the early '80s look as if it could've been a low-budget film from the early '90s instead. The overall image is very grainy, but this grain actually adds some much needed texture to the proceedings. Print damage and artefacting is present (but minimal) and black levels are great. There is one instance at the middle/end of the film where an obstructive scratch is on screen for several seconds (see the last screen cap on this page), and this is the transfer's only massive error. For the most part the colour pallet is vibrant, with only a couple scenes suffering in their old age.
There's nothing to celebrate here, but no reason to despair either. The Dolby Digital Mono soundtrack is serviceable. Dialogue is discernable, if not a bit on the inconsistent side. The film's sound design is reasonably energetic, and perhaps could've benefited from a stereo or surround remix. I actually liked the electronic/symphonic score, it reminded me of some of the better Italian horror productions' soundtracks, like those of Goblin or Fabio Fabrizzi, or even Emerson's Inferno score. Though lacking spatial representation, this audio presentation offers up a fair amount of bass and treble variation.
Erm, we've got a fun trailer, and some other Anchor Bay DVD release trailers.
Not quite the fun time I was hoping for, Superstition is recommended only to avid gore flick enthusiasts with a lot of patience, or a willingness to utilize the fast-forward button. The DVD looks and sounds fine, but is lacking in any features other than a trailer. My quest for a good, '80s era, B-horror flick I haven't seen continues. I suppose as long as I'm on Anchor Bay's mailing list something has to come along.

Ah, that tag line made me laugh out loud:
"Gabe has given up on telling stupid people not to enter haunted houses..."
I so agree... Few classic line in the Supernatural TV series along that line...

Leaders of the world's largest banks have gone some way to persuading investors that their industry's near-death experience is over, even though the public still doesn't trust them.
However, a recent rebound in banking shares - which has pushed the Thomson Reuters Global Banks index up five percent this year - possibly hides a crisis still threatening the existence of many in the sector as its leaders meet in Davos.
The Libor rigging scandal, rogue trading, mis-selling, the breaking of anti-money laundering rules and debate over staff bonuses have all ensured the banks remain in the dog house, four years after the financial crisis brought many to their knees.
(Read More: The Global Economy's Recovery Hinges on 'Connectivity')
Banks and financial service companies were once again at the bottom of the pile in the Edelman "Trust Barometer", released this week in Davos where many bankers are attending the World Economic Forum. Although they scored slightly better in the survey of 26 countries than last year, only 50 percent of respondents said they trust banks and financial institutions, against a 77 percent score for technology companies.
Many are producing profits for shareholders again, but the rules of the game have changed and banks and their advisers recognize it will take years to rebuild public confidence.
"Banks need to change their business models. Financial service providers need to be reminded that it all about service to clients and clients need to be put back at the core. Self-interest has to take a backseat," Axel Weber, former Bundesbank chief and now Chairman of Swiss bank UBS, said on Wednesday.
With senior industry figures predicting that only a handful of major global banks will emerge stronger from the financial crisis, the outlook for those that do not is uncertain. JPMorgan, HSBC and Bank of America Merrill Lynch are those most often mentioned among the winners, with smaller players suffering from higher capital requirements, a low interest rate environment and stiffer regulatory demands.
This has prompted action to cut costs and focus on what bankers often describe as their "core competencies". UBS, for instance, has cut 10,000 jobs and pulled back from areas such as fixed income trading. Many banks have also staged wholesale retreats from certain businesses, such as commodity trading, or selective withdrawals from countries or regions.
Some, including JP Morgan Chairman and Chief Executive Jamie Dimon, say the basic banking model is not broken and that the excesses of the pre-crisis period have been curtailed. "You want financial services, you just don't want them to be leveraged or (to) blow up," Dimon said during a panel discussion involving bankers, regulators and politicians.
Others at Davos say banks have largely put their shops in order and are now concentrating on trying to make money.
"Generating earnings in this environment is not that easy; we have gone from crisis mode to normal boring stuff about how will the business grow," one senior banker told Reuters.
But others such as Weber think an overhaul is still required for the industry to reinvent itself. "Banks need to get a new strategy...at the same time we need to deal with the legacy. You need to separate from the past, that's a necessary condition. We need to move forward in a different mode," Weber said.
Regulatory Respite
The mantra of putting customers first echoes around the corridors in the Swiss Alpine ski resort, but this is still drowned out by protests about the unintended consequences of regulations aimed at preventing another crisis.
"We should have better regulation, but not necessarily more. We will not achieve (economic) growth unless we have a proper financial industry that lends money that fuels growth," said Andrey Kostin, Chairman and Chief Executive of Russia's VTB Bank.
One of the unintended consequences of the regulatory drive which has followed the financial crisis is, say bankers, greater consolidation of the industry.
So rather than preventing banks from being "too big to fail" after the collapse of Lehman Brothers, the drive to require them to hold more capital and more liquid assets in the event of markets drying up, has had the opposite effect.
"The irony is that the big are getting bigger," the senior banker said, adding that the costs of developing IT was an example of where scale was critical. "If you don't have a substantial business, it just kills your margins," he added.
The industry has fought back against some of the regulations and earlier this month successfully convinced the Basel Committee on banking supervision to push back the date by which they must increase their so-called liquidity buffers.
Behind The Bounce
A period of greater stability in the euro zone has been one factor behind investors' interest in bank stocks. European banks dominate the top 10 risers in the Thomson Reuters Global Banks Index, with seven spots.
(Read More: IMF's Lagarde: I'm Optimistic About Europe)
Shares in the benchmark Eurostoxx 600 banks index had already risen 23 percent last year, clawing back much of the 33 percent loss in 2011. Gains came as banks tackled costs and investors took heart from the European Central Bank's promise to do "whatever it takes" to preserve the euro.
Analysts had expected a more muted start to 2013, but Europe's banks have risen another 7.5 percent in the year to date. Banks on the troubled "periphery" of the euro zone have enjoyed the biggest 2013 increases. Eight of this year's top 10 performers are from countries such as Italy, Ireland, Greece, Portugal and Spain - those which have gained the most from relative euro zone stability.
But some in the industry say this may provide only temporary respite for the banks that are no longer able to compete on scale with the big "universal" global banks.
"We will see more do what UBS did. It is pretty hard to make the numbers work. None of the investment banks are having an easy time of it at the moment," the senior banker said.

Plans for a new £890,000 library to replace the unsafe one in Heanor have been given the green light. The new building to replace the old one on Ilkeston Road will have an improved children's library, a health and wellbeing zone, custom-built computer area and communal seating and study areas in the £892,500 building, which should be open to the public by March next year.
There will be a local studies section, audio book loan, self-service points and areas for public events such as author visits.
A structural engineer's report recommended the existing library should be closed on safety grounds unless it was immediately renovated – a project which would cost thousands more than providing a brand new building, said a spokesman for Derbyshire County Council, which operates the library.
Councillor Dave Allen said: "We are delighted to approve these plans for a modern library with a wide range of improved facilities and accessible services for the residents of Heanor.
"This decision shows our commitment to providing high quality services in the town which are fit for the future while also providing taxpayers with the best value for money.
"Meanwhile, we're close to securing a temporary base in the town centre and are doing everything we can to minimise disruption."
Councillors approved a recommendation to demolish the existing building and provide a new library and car park when they meet on Tuesday, April 15
They also agreed a recommendation to temporarily relocate the library in a vacant shop in the town centre – the potential location is currently being finalised. The library will close t the public today, Thursday April, 17.

Ronald E. Wolfley May 31, 1963-Nov. 14, 2011
Ronald E. Wolfley at age 48 passed away suddenly at home on Monday, Nov. 14, 2011.
Ron was preceded in death by his loving grandparents, Arcado (Archie) Montez and Helen Villasenor who raised him and he so lovingly adored; Ron's daughter, Casey Mulkey, passed from leukemia; his uncle, Terry Last and brother, Scotty Scott.
Ron was the beloved husband of Lousie Wolfley. Ron loved to take his wife camping and on four-wheeler rides in the mountains. He also enjoyed doing whatever it took to get a rise out of Louise…just poking fun for a little amusement. This was quite entertaining at times.
A much loved father of Christopher (Whitney), Cristen (Condo), and Jacob.
Step father to Casey, Corey, Matthew, Jared, Kevin, and Jeremy. Oh my, how he loved to talk about his children and brag them up to anyone that would listen. He was a very proud daddy. Going diggin' out at the "D". All the good times, all the bad times and many more to come in that '70 Chevy.
A much loved son of Gary and Sharee Scott, Ron was very excited to have his parents live next door to him so he could be readily available to them.
Ronald was also a loving grandfather of 12 beautiful grandchildren, Sidney, Makeala, Kaedance, Dorian, Attalina, Kelsee, Kyler, Joceleen, Khloee, Damian, Aiden and Trayden. They were all the apple of his eye! He could not ever get enough of them, as the love would flow out of him to each and every one of them. Hearing them squeal with excitement would make his eyes light up and put a huge grin on his face. Oh, how he loved them.
Ronald was an avid four-wheeler man who loved being in the mountains. He loved spending time with his wife, friends and family going camping, riding, hunting, and fishing in the great outdoors. We will miss his laugh, his smile, his jokes, his text messages and his witty sense of humor.
Ron is survived by his siblings Stephanie (Norbert) Adakai, Ramona (Benny) Stits and Steven (Cynthia) Scott. Ron has also left behind many other loved ones who will miss him greatly.
A memorial service will be held on Thursday, Nov. 17, 2011, at 2 p.m. at Mountain View Nazarene Church at 26515 Ustick Rd. Wilder, with reception to follow for friends and family.
We will also be holding a celebration of life on Wednesday, Nov. 23, 2011, at 4 p.m. at the Meridian Center in Blackfoot.
In lieu of flowers we ask that you would please make donations to Rocky Mountain Candle Lighters for children with leukemia also known as the Make a Wish Foundation of Idaho, P.O. Box 2340, Salt Lake City, Utah 84110.
Services are under direction of Flahiff Funeral Chapel of Homedale and online condolences may be left for the family at www.flahifffuneralchapel.com.

DELAND, Fla. (Feb. 6, 2010) -- In need of maintaining some momentum with another victory, the ETSU men's basketball team will return to action Saturday evening at 7 p.m., as the Buccaneers invade the Edmunds Center to take on the Stetson Hatters in Atlantic Sun Conference action.
The Bucs, 12-12 overall, 8-5 A-Sun, still find themselves in the thick of the league race and hope to pick up one more victory on the road before heading home for a pair of games next weekend. However, the Bucs must first dispatch a Hatters' squad that has already beaten them once this year, handing the Bucs a 54-52 setback last month.
For more on the game, click on the game notes link above, or read the game notes below.
Buc bits
Relying on a strong defensive effort and finding its offensive rythm in the second half, the ETSU men's basketball team snapped a two-game losing streak with a win over Florida Gulf Coast on Thursday night, and the Buccaneers hope to build on that win Saturday night on the road at Stetson ... The Bucs improved to 12-12 overall, 8-5 in league play, and remain two games back of Jacksonville for first place in the league regular season race ... Preseason All Atlantic Sun Conference pick Mike Smith (Vandalia, Mo.) remains doubtful for the Stetson game after having missed the Bucs last 14 contests, and is likely headed toward a medical redshirt season. In Smith's absence, Tommy Hubbard (Boston), along with Justin Tubbs (Trussville, Ala.) and Micah Williams (Manchester) have stepped up their games. In fact, Hubbard has posted double-doubles 11 times this season. ... Currently, Hubbard and Tubbs lead the team in scoring, with Hubbard averaging 14.6 points per game, and Tubbs pitching in 12.8 a contest. Williams is the only other ETSU player averaging double figures with 11.0 a contest.
The series against Stetson
The Hatters are one of the teams to have given the Bucs trouble since ETSU joined the Atlantic Sun Conference in 2005-06 ... All-time the Bucs lead the series 8-5, but Stetson has defeated the Bucs three times in five games inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center, including a loss in the last game between the two, a 54-52 victory for the Hatters back on Jan. 14 ... The Bucs have won all four meetings in DeLand since joining the A-Sun in 2005-06.
Last time against Stetson
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Jan. 14, 2010) - For the third time in five seasons, the ETSU men's basketball team looked on as the Stetson Hatters came into the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center and left with an Atlantic Sun Conference victory ... The Buccaneers relinquished an 11-point second half lead in front of 4,003 fans at the Mini-Dome, as Stetson went 10-of-25 from 3-point range to manage the 54-52 victory. ETSU had a shot at the end to tie the game as Stetson's A.J. Smith missed the front end of a one-and-one, but junior forward Tommy Hubbard (Boston) went coast-to-coast only to have his layup attempt fall short at the buzzer. ... ETSU led by eight 27-19 at the break, and though the game was not the up-and-down type that the Bucs would enjoy, they still held a somewhat comfortable lead. ... However, after a Justin Tubbs (Trussville, Ala.) 3-pointer found the bottom of the net to open the second half and make it 30-19 in favor of ETSU, Stetson went on a 19-5 run over the next nine minutes to take a 38-35 lead. The Bucs responded to regain the edge at 43-40, but back-to-back 3-pointers by Mark Lohuis and Brandon Williams made it 46-43 with just over six minutes left on the clock. ... ETSU tied the game at 46, but from there was never able to take the lead again. Even so, the Bucs did have a pair of opportunities to tie the game, as freshman guard Sheldon Cooley (Tampa) went to the line for a one-and-one with 21 seconds left and the game at 52-50 in favor of the Hatters. He missed the front end, however, and after a pair of makes by Smith that put the score at 54-50, the Bucs final score of the game came on a layup by junior forward Micah Williams (Manchester) with seven seconds left. ... Stetson was led by 12 points apiece from Lohuis and Williams, while Smith and Ridge Graham finished with 10 apiece. Meanwhile, the Bucs got a game high 13 from Micah Williams, while Tubbs finished with 12.
Last time out
FORT MYERS, Fla. (Feb. 4, 2010) - Overcoming a 10-minute offensive drought to start the game, the ETSU men's basketball team employed its pressure defense to wake up from the lull and snap a two-game losing streak with a 56-47 win over Florida Gulf Coast in Atlantic Sun Conference play Thursday night at Alico Arena. ... The Bucs (12-12 overall, 8-5 A-Sun) fell behind 10-1 and did not score its first field goal until the 10:16 mark of the first half. However, the team turned it around in time, getting strong offensive nights from a pair of Florida natives, as sophomore forward Isiah Brown (Miami) posted a game high 17 points and seven rebounds, and sophomore guard Adam Sollazzo (Tampa) added seven points, three assists and four steals in 26 minutes of play. ... The first half began with the ETSU offense in a deep freeze despite the 80 degree temperatures of South Florida. In fact, the Buccaneers fell behind 10-1 and did not score a field goal until Sollazzo picked off a pass and dunked it home with 10:16 left in the first half. ... ETSU finally got its offense going thanks to its defense, as the Bucs utilized their aggressive, trapping halfcourt defense to force FGCU (7-16, 4-10) into 15 turnovers in the first half. Slowly, ETSU chipped away at the deficit and ultimately took the halftime lead at 26-24 on a pair from free throws from junior guard De'Shaud Johnson (Riverdale, Ga.) with 4.8 seconds left in the half. ... The Bucs were outrebounded 17-11 in the first half, but outscored FGCU 15-8 off turnovers. ETSU also held the Eagles to 20 percent shooting from beyond the 3-point arc, and the Bucs ultimately shot 40.9 percent from the field in the first half despite the slow start offensively ... In the second half the Bucs built their largest lead of the game so far at 31-28, but the Eagles came right back to retake the advantage 32-31 on a pair from free throws from Eddie Murray with 15:01 left in the game. From there, however, the Bucs once again went to the pressure defense and took a four-point lead at 36-32 on a dunk by Justin Tubbs (Trussville, Ala.) with 13:53 left. ... FGCU responded to tie it at 36-36 on a pair of baskets by Hunter Miller, but from there Brown scored nine of the Bucs next 20 points as ETSU outscored the Eagles 20-11 the rest of the way for the win. ... The Bucs only had two players in double figures, with Brown being joined by junior forward Tommy Hubbard (Boston) with 10 points.
Jan. 30 not a good day for Bucs
For the second year in a row, the Buccaneers dropped a critical overtime game on Jan. 30 ... One year ago, the Bucs fell 82-72 at Jacksonville, in a game that Dolphins' guard Ben Smith hit a long range 3-pointer to tie the game in regulation and force the extra period ... The Bucs again found themsevles in an overtime game on Jan. 30, losing a nine-point lead in regulation with six minutes left and ultimately giving up a five-point lead in OT to fall to Lipscomb, 85-84.
Century mark not usual for ETSU defense
Giving up 100 points in the loss to Belmont (1/23/10) was not usual for the Buccaneers ... Before that game, the Bucs had not given up 100 or more point in over two years ... The last time it happened was on Dec. 15, 2007, when the Bucs lost to Syracuse 125-75 ... This season, the most points the ETSU defense had allowed was 85, in games at Arkansas and UAB ... For the year, the ETSU defense is giving up an average of just 68.2 points per game.
Jones steps up at the point
Coming off the bench to play the point guard position in the Bucs' last game against Lipscomb, sophomore guard Jarvis Jones (Memphis) answered in a big way with a career high 17 points, including the game-winning 3-pointer with .4 seconds left in regulation ... Jones played 23 minutes in the game and was 3-of-4 from 3-point range.
Williams bringing more offense to the table
Junior guard Micah Williams (Manchester) has worked his way into the starting lineup thanks mainly to back-to-back strong efforts on the offensive end ... Against North Georgia, Williams posted a career high 22 points in leading the Bucs to the win, and he followed that effort with an 18-point night against Murray State ... He has scored in double figures in 10 of his last 15 games ... Currently, Williams is one of three Bucs averaging double figures scoring this year with 11.0 points per game.
Hubbard steps up game in 2009-10
Much has been written and reported about junior forward Tommy Hubbard (Boston) and his efforts to improve his offensive game, and those strides have led to some solid numbers ... Already considered one of the best defenders in the A-Sun, Hubbard posted a 32-point and 10-rebound effort in the win over Arkansas and dropped in another game-high 26 in the win over UNF ... He currently leads the Bucs with 14.6 points per game and 8.6 rebounds a contest ... while he has posted double-doubles in 10 of his last 21 games, his efforts began to pay off on the offensive end against Chattanooga back on Nov. 17 ... Setting career bests for points (26) and rebounds (13), Hubbard collected his first career double-double against the Mocs ... In addition, he hit his first 3-point shot in three seasons with the Bucs, and didn't stop there -- ultimately finishing with four long-range bombs on the night.
Record setting night from the arc for Bucs
Hitting on 11-of-14 shots from 3-point range against Arkansas, the Bucs put their name in a multiple of record books ... First, those numbers set a new school record for 3-point field goal percentage in a game with a 78.6 percent mark, breaking the previous record of 66.7 percent which had been done three times previously ... In addition, it was the best shooting effort in the "nation" this season for teams taking more than 10 shots in a game ... And it was the best percentage by a team in the A-Sun since Nov. 28, 1999 when UCF was 11-of-14 in a game against South Carolina state.
Home Sweet Dome
Since the 1996-97 season, the Buccaneers are an amazing 136-44 inside Memorial Center, good for a winning percentage of 77 percent ... The Bucs had won five straight at Memorial Center during the 2006-07 season before a loss to Belmont (1/2) ... The Bucs then rattled off 10 straight at home to stand at 15-1 on the Memorial Center floor that season, but fell to Belmont in the championship of the A-Sun Tourney... In 2007-08, the Bucs were 11-2 at Memorial Center ... In 2008-09, the Bucs were 11-2 at home ... This season, ETSU has actually struggled in the Dome, going 6-4 in the Dome and 1-0 in Brooks Gym.
Sollazzo to honor Coy with number change
When ETSU's rising sophomore forward Seth Coy (Montgomery, Ind.) was tragically killed in a car accident this summer, it left the entire Buccaneer community with a deep sense of loss ... As is often the case, those that are left to mourn have looked for ways to remember the Bucs' 6-foot-11 "Gentle Giant." ... For sophomore guard Adam Sollazzo (Tampa), who was Coy's roommate, the answer was simple ... Changing his jersey number from No. 20 to Coy's No. 43, Sollazzo will play the 2009-10 season to honor his friend and have that memory with him each night.
Big questions surround Bucs entering 2009-10
With the loss of seniors Courtney Pigram and Kevin Tiggs -- one of the most dynamic offensive duos in the country -- the Bucs have had a lot of questions to answer on the offenisve end of the floor this season ... Having averaged 78.1 points a game a year ago, which ranked 21st nationally in all of Division I play -- ETSU has lost 44.0 of those points to graduation when one includes now departed senior Greg Hamlin in that trio ... In addition to the losses on offensive, the Bucs' 13-man roster includes just eight players who have experienced actual floor time in college ... The other five players are either true freshmen, redshirt freshmen or walk-ons ... So far this season, those concerns have been warranted, as the team is averaging just 69.9 points per contest, 8.2 points off their average of a year ago.

I wonder if the extra 30 mins bring out more of the coarseness, to the point of being this unpleasant.
How old is the beer?
My IPAs usually taste fairly harsh (astringent) in the primary and then for about a week in the keg. I always attributed this to yeast/hop matter in suspension. If you didn't use whirl floc or fine you may just need to add some keg finings and crash cool.
but you may check the age of your 090 and starter size to make sure you grew up enough yeast (underpitching + violent ferment could give you solventy alcohols).

Poker Pay Day
Well I ended up cashing out $350 for my first Poker Payday. Not a bad start. Brings my bankroll back down to 2K, but it is in much better shape than it was a week ago. I am happy about how it is working out.
I got some pretty bad beats in some SNGs today. I had AK and A7 spiked the river on me. Happens. I also had AJ and AQ beat me on an AAx board. He actually turned the Q on the turn.
I have been doing well in O8 SNGs. These things are a crap shoot. However you can easily give yourself a chance simply by waiting until the blinds get high to start betting hard. It is sort of the same principle as not steeling blinds in NL until it is worth it. Just play good hands. People stay in long enough in split games that you wont have to worry about the blinds. Around about level four I look to start making some moves. I wait for good hands, but I am looking to knock people out now. If I do not have a good scooping hand I will wait and let everyone else fight it out. O8 is such a long game that waiting for the blinds to get crazy is a great strategy for these SNGs. I have tried six so far and placed 1,2,3,2,3,out. Not a huge sample size but it seems like it is working so far.

New Service
Bethel alumni association is now
planning to establish the alumni
vocational counseling service. In
a joint effort with the student sen-ate,
the service will bring alumni
and students with common voca-tional
interests together.
Alumni are making the project
the first step toward becoming a
service on the campus. Interests of
the association are now largely
with alumni away from the campus.
Present plans include a series
of luncheons in the president's din-ing
room during the week of Nov.
18. These are designed to provide
opportunity for informal interac-tion
between students and alumni.
By speaking with graduate stu-dents,
professional people and
business men with experience in
their field of interest, students
will gain a better understanding
of the particular career. Oppor-tunities
and special training re-quirements
can also be explored.
Students will receive sheets in
their p.o. boxes on which they may
indicate career interests. Arrange-ments
to meet with alumni in that
vocation can then be made. If
necessary, preference will be given
to upperclassmen.
Alumni director Dwight Jessup
hopes to compile a permanent list
of alumni who will be available
for consultation upon appointment.
Cabot Dow is the newly elected
president of the freshman class.
Hailing from Sunnyside, Wash.,
Dow was active in his high school's
student government, serving as
vice-president of his junior class
and president of his sophomore
class. He also served as vice-presi-dent

Phenix: 'Art is End, not Means'
by J. David Patterson
It will be the philosophy of this
report in the following paragraphs
and in coming issues of the CLAR-ION
that the student should be in-formed
as to what is going on be-hind
the impenetrable cloud of
parliamentary procedure often dis-played
during student senate meet-ings.
At the senate meeting Oct. 8, the
most important order of business
was approval of twelve proposed
constitutional changes. The pro-posed
changes passed with a two-third
Final vote will be taken on the
amendments Friday, Oct. 18,
from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. in the
student center. All that is neces-sary
for the amendments to pass
is a simple majority of the votes
Amendments 1, 2, 8, 9, 10 and 11
are nothing more than grammatical
changes designed to eliminate am-biguities.,
They need no further
Amendment three, however, in-troduces
a new terminology which
is reflected in the fourth amend-ment.
These two amendments in
essence provide that class repre-sentatives
be made class officers
and therefore members of the class
executive cabinet.
The fifth and seventh amend-ments
allow for the removal of
corporate members such as cam-pus
clubs, except for the individ-ual
classes, from the specifica-tions
of the election code of pro-cedure.
Amendment six merely adds the
duty of announcing the dates of
the primary and general elections
at least two weeks in advance to
the election board. The final
amendment states more clearly the
time of the first senate meeting of
the year.
Proposed was an amendment
that would lower the honor point
ratio required for senate execu-tives
from 1.5 to 1.25. There was
considerable discussion over this
particular issue, the major objec-tions
being put forth by Dean
Dahlquist. The amendment was de-feated
thirteen to five.
Final issue in which there was
considerable interest was that
of the dress code on campus.
Views on the situation were of-fered
by Dr. Junet Runbeck and
Roger Evans.
As is the case with so many rules
the dress code is effective as it
stands, but no one is willing to put
teeth into it. The issue was left
undecided, and it will be interest-ing
to see how it is handled at the
next senate meeting.

by Karen Sloan
Outward atrocities and unbeliev-able
horrors of concentration
camps during the last war are fre-quent
subjects of books. Man's
Search for Meaning by Victor E.
Frankl portrays another dimension
of prison life.
Frankl proposes to answer some
questions about everyday life in
such a camp, at the level of men's
minds, spirits and wills. Much of
the book is the story of Frankl's
own experiences in Auschwitz and
other Nazi prisons and of his de-termination
to find for his own
existence a meaning and a pur-pose,
even in the concentration
The story serves the larger
purpose of the book, which is to
explain his theory of logotherapy
which developed out of his war
Logotherapy is a version of ex-istential
analysis. Its main tenet
is that much neurosis (the noogenic
neuroses) derives from a man's
failure to find a "meaning and a
sense of responsibility in his ex-istence."
Frankl suggests that human free-dom
is to choose one's own atti-tude,
one's own way. On the basis
of his experience, he holds that
"man can preserve a vestigate of
spiritual freedom, an independence
of mind, even in such terrible con-think
that the accusation that the
abstractionist artist does not com-municate
is valid. The artist is
not obligated to communicate with
just anyone. Even if he has com-municated
something early to him-self,
he has communicated.
As a corollary of his definition
that "a work of art is a deliberate-ly
produced artifact whose purpose
is to give disinterested enjoyment,"
Phenix defines failure as the in-capacity
to evoke interest.
He further insisted that works
of art can not be compared as
to degrees of 'greatness,' for each
painting is unique, each works
with a unique problem.
Another of Dr. Phenix's com-ments
on the nature and value of
art is that "the creative work of
the artist is an analog of the crea-ditions
of psychic and physical
stress (as the prison camp)."
Meaning in life, Frankl found,
was this spiritual freedom that
made men, in the grim degrada-tion
of the concentration camps,
"worthy of their sufferings." It
is the way a man takes up his
cross that enables him to add
the deeper meaning to life.
Logotherapy has become known
as the third Viennese school of
Psychtherapy. Frankl has replac-ed
the retrospective and introspec-tive
psychoanayltic methods of his
predecessors, Freud and Adler,
with a psychotherapy that is con-cerned
with the future. Healing is
in finding a purpose for life and
thus a meaning.
Frankl encourages us to look at
our future from the vantage point
of our death, or to "live as if you
were living already for the second
time and as if you acted as wrongly
the first time as you are about to
act now."
The meaning Frankl encourages
us to find is not something ab-stract.
It is for every man his
own meaning, his "mission."
This book does not move the
reader to simple pity for this poor
brave man and all the other pri-soners.
It reaches much deeper:
it asks the individual his meaning.
A careful recitation of a cate-chism
is not the answer. Each must
tive work of God. And we can
know of God the creator through
the creating of the artist."
"A good theology is the basis of
art criticism. The artist is utiliz-ing
the gift of the spirit. The true
purpose of art is the expression
of spiritual reality."
"However, art such as sur-realism
can be demonic where
the artist is magnifying Self and
the art expresses an autonomy
that is out of touch with the
divine creative intention."
Dr. Phenix warned against sup-posing
that because a piece of art
has a religious subject matter its
content is religious. As an exam-ple
he mentioned D. H. Lawrence's
Conversely he suggested that art
that seems to be an expression of
desperation is still raising a reli-gious
problem, even though it
does not affirm a religious an-swer.
Thus this art might be
thought of as a negative affirma-tion.
For instance, even comic drama
can not be considered unreligious
because its purpose is to give
perspective and is therefore jus-tified.
Phenix considers that the
only truly unreligious art is that
which he termed "dilletante,"
art that expresses a "who cares"
Phenix did not seem to have any
philosophic grounds for disparag-ing
non-representational art, al-though
he admitted that abstract
art does not allow for much assoc-iation
of a religious nature.
One of his own favorite artists
is Kandinsky. Phenix said that his
philosophy of art concurred closely
with that of Dorthy Sayers in her
book Mind of the Maker.

Frosh Elections Climax
Week of Campaigning
Freshman elections are over. Avid poster makers have
admired their creations; ambitious candidates have spoken to
their constituencies; eager voters have cast their ballots.
Democracy has triumphed all over again, sort of.
Proceedings have been in the finest campus tradition.
Political rumblings are heard from dormitory counterparts
of smoke-filled rooms. Chewing gum replaces cigarettes; cokes
fill in for coffee or worse; the only clouds to be seen are those
in which aspiring politicians have their heads.
More concrete action follows: after a liberal amount of
encouragement by his circle of friends, the hesitant student
signs a declaration of candidacy. Then comes circulating the
petition and putting up posters. Rather bad ones at first;
scribbled with a magic marker on bookstore posterboard.
The ever-present campaign manager decides the effort lacks
class, so an artistic young lady is recruited. The method:
coffee shop date, a bit of persuasive conversation and it's
all set.
Then primary elections in the student center. Candidates
are strangers to the innocent voter. "My roommate thinks he's
cute!" and another candidate gets a tally. The election board
counts ballots with deliberate speed. Candidates congratulate
and console one another. Winners scurry back to the coke-filled
rooms to renew the battle for men's minds.
Campus walls bloom with more posters, some childishiy
scarred by campus wits. The long week slows excitement,
points toward the rally the night before the election.
Politics ooze across the campus from the fieldhouse. A
small band blares marches. Bunting brightens the platform
and podium and splashes across the blue and gold curtains.
Solemn candidates dressed in dark suits and white sox sit
stiffly facing the class. The rally opens with a collection of
exhortative platitudes from the senate president.
Then a parade of personalities specially shined up for
the evening. Nomination speeches: some serious, some sense-less.
A liberal sprinkling of gags. Candidates rise to accept the
nomination with stumbling, sincere thoughts in what seems
appropriately dignified language. The rally closes and students
scatter to the coffee shop, the library, the dormitory. Coming
tests lose appeal before election speculation.
At last the election: No posters in the student center; "Say,
have you voted yet?" More ignorance, more marred ballots.
Again the election board stops the clock. Finally results
posted in the coffee shop. First cabinet meeting, mostly coke
and congratulations.
From somewhere a mournful voice: "Only so many per
cent voted. Disgrace!" Even moralists love elections.
Signing is for Letters
Opinions of all sorts are welcomed in letters to the editor.
However, idealists everywhere must muster personal courage
sufficient to sign their names. As mentioned in previous edi-tions,
names will be withheld upon request at the discretion
of the editor. Names cannot be withheld unless they are sign-ed.
Unsigned letters are not even considered.
Moral of this short and rather sad story: sign all letters

Draws Readers'
What happens to the CLARION
after it is delivered to the post
office boxes on Tuesday? Is it
widely read? If so, what are the
most popular features?
To find answers to these ques-tions,
members of the journalism
workshop last week interviewed a
sample of Bethel personnel. In-cluded
were answers from office
staff and maintenance crew as
well as from students and faculty
members in both college and sem-inary.
Findings suggest that up to 80
per cent of the readers look at
news on the front page and that
almost as many, some 73 per
cent, read the sports page. The
least read is "The Index" book
review, skipped without as much
as a glance by more than 70 per
cent of the readers.
Less than half the readers pay
any attention to editorials, but in
contrast some 69 per cent turn to
the "Letters-to-the-editor" column.
Features, such as political commen-tary,
attract only slightly more
than half the readership.
These findings were projected
from a ten per cent sample of the
total Bethel community. Interview
methods followed those developed
by George W. Gallop in readership
studies. Respondents were shown
the previous week's CLARION and
asked to classify their reading of
each item as "none," "glanced, '
"some," or 'all.'
Commenting on the findings,
newspaper advisor Edward Avey
told his workshop students the
figures reflected a typical news-paper
readership, "waiting to be
entertained but not ready to
think too deeply."
"Yet," stressed Avey, "a school
newspaper is more than a bulletin
board. Beyond the task of inform-ing
is the function of challenging
and leading student thought."

Dr. J. Lester Harnish this morn-ing
initiated the seminary fall lec-ture
series with the address, "A
Committed Man." The series con-tinues
tomorrow and Thursday at
10 a.m. in the college auditorium.
It concludes Thursday at 1 p.m. in
the auditorium.
"No challenge could be greater
than the Christian ministry. When
we hear God's call it is heard, an-swered
and served amidst complex-ity,
challenge, despair and faith."
"In the midst of unprecedented
changes, as the last fifty years have
seen, with such stress, strain and
tension upon peoples and things,
the church is found wanting. Mis-sionary
endeavors are proportion-ately
weaker, there is much cyni-cism
among ministers.
"But there is no need for des-pair.
The church is the Body of
Christ. It is that disciplined, wor-shipping,
serving community that
has kept this world from going to
smash. It is the leaven that lea-vens
the lump. The church has a

message of God relevant to our
explosive times.
A minister may fail if he loses
his compassion, or if he compro-mises
with the world, or if his
familiarity with spirituality breeds
contempt. "There is no charmed
circle in which we can hide. Privi-lege
does not spell protection nor
confer security.
"The seeds of destruction lie
within the very task that is so
holy and which we cherish so
greatly. And while we are fondly
hugging the non-essentials, the
veritable essence escapes."
A minister must hate sin,
preaching positively against it with
an urgency and a vehemence. To
strengthen the pulpit there must
be the "loving of the unlovely, the
caring for the dying, the snatch-ing
of the sinner from sin and the
Faithfulness is the requirement
for stewards of God: faithfulness
to the Lord, to the flock of God,
to the Bible, to our denomination
and to our true selves. "Let us an-swer
God's call with the totality
of our being."

Will the embryonic Bethel cham-ber
orchestra become a reality?
With only three rehearsals to date,
it is difficult to answer this ques-tion.
Credit for the conception of the
idea and expenditure of energy
necessary to start the group is due
to its director, Robert Berglund.
With the poor attendance at
its third rehearsal—undoubtedly
an indication of the general a-pathy
of a minority of members
— it is clear that the Bethel
chamber orchestra may never
develop to performance level un-less
a change in the attitude of
some members occurs.
Backbone of any orchestra is its
string section. Bethel's present or-chestra
has only ten string players
who have attended a rehearsal:
eight violinists, one violist and one
bass violist. Of the approximately
twenty-five strings called for in
the original blueprint of the or-chestra,
fifteen have yet to attend
their first rehearsal.
Of the twenty-two wind and per-cussion
positions needed, five cru-cial
spots remain as yet unfilled.
In an orchestra there is usually
only one player per part in the
wind section. This means that pre-sently
five parts are not being
played. Except for these deficien-cies
the wind section is exceptional
for a school of Bethel's size.
Personnel from off-campus
have been recruited to play since
members of the student body are
unable or in some cases unwill-ing
to fill the necessary positions.
As with all new organizations of
this type on a small campus, the
main problem is circular: without
an orchestra the school does not
attract the necessary personnel;
and without personnel there is no
In this regard it is necessary for
those students on campus who play
the needed instruments to be a-ware
of the problem and to realize
the need of present sacrifice for
the future. Quality and enthusiasm
of present members are high, but
without additional personnel the
future looks dim.
In keeping with the relatively
stronger wind section, the
group's repertoire centers a-round
those pieces which utilize
these instruments to a large ex-tent.
The major works being rehearsed
are Corelli's "Adagio and Allegro"
which gives the woodwinds a
chance to show their stuff; Henry
Purcell's "Trumpet Voluntary"
which features the trumpet sec-tion;
Vivaldi's "Concerto Grosso";
and one of the earliest classical
symphonies, Samnaartini's "Sym-phony
in D Major."
To provide an opportunity for
orchestral experience on Bethel's
campus is the main purpose of the
organization. It will broaden the
musical understanding of both
members and student body by giv-ing
an actual contact with great
symphonic music of the various
music periods.

Both Win Fifth Straight
B-Squad Dumps
Pillsbury 33-0
Bethel B-squad exploded for 26
points in the second half to whip a
hapless Pillsbury team 33-0 Tues-day,
Oct. 8. The Bethel squad, made
up of freshman and first year men,
had little trouble halting the Pills-bury
attack through the first half,
while the offense was primed for
second half action. The game was
coached by assistant coaches Dave
Cox and Bob Smith.
Bethel's only tally in the first
half came on a 50 yard pass inter-ception
run-back by Roger Price.
Price also carried in the point try,
and the score remained 7-0 until
The offense began rolling in the
third quarter. Frosh quarterback
Bob Nolin kept on an option and
scampered 30 yards for the second
Bethel touchdown; Nolin complet-ed
a pass to Harvey Zink for the
point. Before the third period end-ed
the Royals had scored again.
This time Nolin climaxed a drive
with a one yard plunge. The try
for the point failed.
Bethel held a commanding 20-0
lead at the end of the third quar-ter,
but were not through yet.
Nolin connected on a 25 pard aer-ial
to Don Bester on a swing pass
for another score. Price again ran
for the extra point.
Bethel climaxed the scoring bar-rage
with a ten yard option run
around end by Larry Schultz. Nolin
connected with Ron Harris for yet
another tally, but a penalty nulli-fied
the score.
A romping victory by the B-squad
gives proof to Bethel's claim
for a stronger bench than in past
years. Last years B-squad was able
to sneak out a 7-6 victory over

was low in spots it was a common
sight to see the occupants wading

their canoe from the sandbars.
Screams from near tip-overs and
bursts of song from Miss Starr's
vicinity punctuated the trip. A

Pioneer College conference, of which Bethel is a member, is a
unique conference with a unique purpose. The conference, in its first
year of operation, maintains that participation in athletics should be
for the enjoyment received from the game.
Article I, section I, of the conference's articles of organization states,
"It shall be a cardinal principle of this conference that all participation
in sports by the members of its teams shall be solely because of interest
in and the enjoyment of the game. No financial aid shall be given to
any student which is conditioned upon his participation in intercolleg-iate
The three other schools rounding out the conference and holding
to a no-scholarship policy are Northland college of Ashland, Wisc.;
Northwestern college of Minneapolis; and the University of Minnesota,
Morris campus. Northland and Northwestern, along with Bethel, are
former members of the old Badger-Gopher conference.
Jerry Healy, elected chairman of the conference board for the year,
mentioned that even though the initial number of participating institu-tions
may be small, there is hope that other schools with similar athletic
ideals will enter into the conference at a later date.
Trophies will be awarded by the conference for excellence in foot-ball,
tennis, basketball, golf, track and possibly wrestling. The Morris
game on Saturday is the only obstacle left between Bethel and its first
Pioneer conference championship.
Tryouts for the 1963-64 basketball team were begun yesterday and
will continue today in the fieldhouse at 4 p.m. Men who were not in-formed
of the tryouts or could not attend for various reasons are
urged to contact Coach Healy as soon as possible. All men are encour-aged
to exhibit their talents regardess of past experience.
As an added incentive for those of you who aren't sure if you
should try out, the latest word has it that the team will be sporting knee
socks this year. (Try out anyway.)

Banana flavored Thai Basil Seed Drink
04.27.09 by Jackie
Thai basil seed drink is a very refreshing beverage that is popular both in Vietnam and in India. It's called hột é in Vietnamese and falooda in India.
The visual aspect of the drink is unusual and not very appealing, but it tastes great. It kind of looks like fish eggs in a pond and tastes like gummy-textured sugar water. I flavored it with banana extract because that's the flavor combination I remember from my visit to Vietnam.

Healthy Eating Campaigns Stink, Do Nothing To Prevent Childhood Obesity
The federal government is spending over $1 billion on nutrition education this year, and it's probably a waste of money, according to the AP.
"Any person looking at the published literature about these programs would have to conclude that they are generally not working," said Dr. Tom Baranowski, a pediatrics professor at Houston's Baylor College of Medicine who studies behavioral nutrition.
The results have been disappointing, to say the least:
• Last year, a federal pilot program offering free fruits and vegetables to schoolchildren showed fifth-graders became less willing to eat them than they had been at the start. Apparently, they didn't like the taste.
• In Pennsylvania, researchers gave prizes to schoolchildren who ate fruits and vegetables. That worked. But when the researchers came back seven months later, the kids had reverted to their original eating habits: soda and chips.
• In studies where children tell researchers they are eating better or exercising more, there is usually no change in blood pressure, body size or cholesterol measures. They want to eat better and might even think they are, but they're not.
Childhood obesity has quadrupled among children 6-11 since the 1970's. Why? There's a lot of debate. The only thing everyone agrees on is that the parents are the most important part of the equation. Ultimately, its up to them what their children eat. Whatever happened to "eat your lima beans?" (Full Disclosure: We love lima beans.)
It's too bad parents have so much to fight against. Unhealthy food is cheaper than fruits and veggies. Unhealthy food is marketed to children, healthy food is not. Heck, unhealthy food tastes better than a lot of healthy food, particularly if you don't know how to cook.
Let's hear from parents in the comments. How are you coping? What are you feeding your kids?
