>>>full team
MARTINEZ, Ga. – The Peach Belt Conference (PBC) released the PBC All-Academic Men's Basketball Team recently, with Georgia College's Josh Hurst (Athens, Ga.) earning a spot on the five-member team.
The teams are part of a season-long program recognizing the outstanding accomplishments of PBC student-athletes in the classroom as well as on the field. To be eligible for the All-Academic team, a student-athlete must 1) participate in at least half of his/her team's events and be either a starter or significant contributor; 2) achieved a 3.30 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) and 3) completed at least one full academic year at his or her current institution. The Peach Belt Sports Information Directors oversee and select the teams.
A senior forward, Hurst has put together a 3.32 GPA in marketing in four seasons at Georgia College, just one of three seniors on the PBC All-Academic squad.
Hurst started all 26 ballgames for the Bobcats, one of just two players to do so. The senior averaged 6.7 points and 7.0 rebounds per game, upping those numbers to 7.2 and 7.2 in PBC contests. He also finished second on the team in blocks with 17.
Hurst is a three-time honoree to this list, making it as both a sophomore and junior. The Bobcats have now put a total of six players on this list all-time.
The Bobcats finished up the 2010-11 season with a 16-10 overall record and a 10-7 Peach Belt Conference (PBC) mark. Their last game was in the PBC Tournament where they fell to the University of Montevallo in the quarterfinals.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, back-to-back winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 10 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement. Sign up at www.twitter.com/BobcatSports and www.facebook.com/gcbobcats for up-to-the-minute reports, and visit www.GCBobcats.com for more information, and to nominate your favorite former Bobcats and Colonials to the GC Athletics Hall of Fame.

Arminianism and Adventism Symposium
Top HeadlinesDate: November 1, 2010
Contact: firstname.lastname@example.com
The Seventh-day Adventist Church has a comparatively unique doctrine of salvation, but where did those beliefs come from? To explore the answer to that question, the Andrews University Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary hosted an Arminianism and Adventism Symposium October 14–16.
Theologians from all over the world converged at Andrews to trace the development of Protestant soteriological theology (the theology of salvation), recognize the 400th anniversary of the Remonstrance of 1610, and present their papers. The symposium was particularly important, according to Gary Land, retired professor and plenary speaker, because, "It attempts to place Adventism within a theological context. Although there have been exceptions, Adventist scholars have tended to examine their denomination in isolation from the larger Christian community. A conference such as this helps us explore those connections between our specific religious traditions and the wider church of which it is a part."
The symposium began with a selection of Renaissance-era music, performed by a sextet dressed in period costumes. During the opening reception, Andrews University faculty in costumes portraying major theologians mingled in the crowd. The symposium began with opening remarks and a presentation of the underlying rationale. Stan Patterson, associate professor and chair of Christian ministry, portrayed Jacobus Arminius; John Calvin was portrayed by Skip Bell, professor of Christian ministry and director of the DMin program; Walt Williams, associate professor of Christian ministry, dressed as Martin Luther; Peter van Bemmelen, professor emeritus, appeared as John Wesley; and Jo Ann Davidson, professor of theology, portrayed Ellen G. White.
Denis Fortin, dean and professor of theology at the Theological Seminary, welcomed participants to the weekend, and the presentation of papers began. Denis Fortin presented his paper, "The Place of Seventh-day Adventism in the Calvinist-Arminian Debate: Historical and Theological Perspectives on The Remonstrance." Fortin traced the history of Arminianism, and outlined its basic beliefs. Arminianism is at its core a rejection of the Calvinist doctrine of predestination. In 1610, a group of Dutch theologians published a statement known as the Remonstrance in which they denounced the teachings of Arminius as heretical. Following the Remonstrance, those dissatisfied with the Calvinist theory of predestination came to rally around the teachings of Jacob Arminius and became known as Arminians. Early Seventh-day Adventism grew out of the context of eighteenth-century Methodism, which championed Arminian thought.
Andrews University faculty in costume portrayed major theologians at the
Thirty-one speakers presented their papers at the conference in a variety of breakout sessions and discussions. The nine plenary speakers were: Denis Fortin, dean of the Seminary; Hans K. LaRondelle, professor emeritus; George Knight, professor emeritus; Roger Olson, professor of theology at the George W. Truett Theological Seminary of Baylor University; Barry Callen, professor emeritus of Christian Studies at Anderson University; Keith Stanglin, assistant professor of Historical Theology at Harding University; Woodrow Whidden, professor at the Seminary of the Adventist International Institute of Advanced Studies; Gary Land, professor emeritus and assistant dean of graduate programs for the College of Arts & Sciences; and Angel Rodriguez, director in the Biblical Research Institute.
The plenary speakers presented papers on topics ranging from LaRondelle's "Seventh-day Adventist Perspectives on Predestination," to Whidden's "Investigative Judgment and Assurance of Salvation" and Keith Stanglin's "Assurance of Salvation: An Arminian Account." Additional papers presented focused upon themes and history interacting with Arminianism such as Jacques Doukhan's "Fate or Destiny: The Issue of Predestination and Free Will in Hebrew and Jewish Thought."
Gary Land closed the symposium with his reflections, which reviewed the basic thoughts and ideas presented in each of the plenary papers. "Whatever our theological positions, they are part of conversations and debates that have long predated us," said Land. "It behooves us to know that history and have it inform our participation in contemporary theological discussion both within our church and with those of other Christian traditions."

I'm new here, please excuse me, I did search this question but didn't find an obvious similar request.
I have a HP Stream 7, its a low cost Windows 8 based tablet. Its a super little system which costs under $99. Like most tablets you can flip the screen any direction by tilting it. Otherwise it feels like a regular PC with Windows 8 tablet UI on top.
I want to control it from my normal Windows 7 laptop. UltraVNC works great on both computers.
I'd like be able to invoke a flip screen 90 degrees from my host. Is this possible to add a few buttons on control screen to do this?
that would be great. MS Surface and Lenovo Yoga are getting popular so there must be others with demand for this.

Senior Lauren Nowierski put the Engineers up early with her team leading sixth goal of the season, but Babson senior Gina Giardina evened the score just two minutes later. With the game deadlocked, both teams settled down, dueling it out primarily around midfield. Babson had a terrific opportunity to take the lead midway through the half, but junior Sharon Prange came up with a timely defensive save to keep the score tied. But at 26:41, Babson's Andrea Tufts took the game into her own hands. Tufts capitalized on a feed from freshman Megan Paglialunga for what would prove to be the game-winning goal.
MIT came out reenergized in the second half looking to knot the score at two, but the Engineers had no such luck. After a scramble out in front, senior Noelle Kanaga put home a rebound and appeared to have tied the game, but upon further discussion between the officials, it was ruled that the ball first hit a foot and was thus in Babson's possession.
In need of an insurance goal, the Beavers continued to press hard, and the extra effort paid off. Tufts tallied her second goal of the game on a penalty corner pass from sophomore Annie Pease to give the Beavers a 3-1 advantage. With the pair of goals, Tufts upped her season total to eight. The Engineers mustered a flurry of chances in the final five minutes of the game but couldn't find the back of the cage.
Babson's freshman goalkeeper Elissa Slovin made five saves in the game, helping the Beavers improve to 7-2. Sophomore goalies Alexa Herman and Safia Chettih split time in net for MIT in the loss. The Engineers dropped to 7-2.
MIT will look to begin a new winning streak when they travel to

And What I Think About It...
(Foreword to my relatives: Relax -- no one in the family is having a baby.)
Today, I became a grandma for the first time.
I was pushing my shopping cart through the cereal aisle in WalMart, A cute little girl about two years old was sitting in the kiddy seat of another cart waiting for her mom to get done picking out cereal. When I paused to get a box of raisin bran, I noticed that she was staring at me intently.
I smiled at her, and she said, "Grandma!" Then she grabbed her mom's arm and said, "Mommy, there's Grandma!" (Actually, she pronouced it, "Gam-ma.")
So, I said, "Hi, honey." And her mom said, "Oh no, that's not Grandma." And the little girl said sadly, "Oh."
So I didn't get to be her grandma for long, but it was nice while it lasted.
I still remember the first time I was ever called "Ma'am." I remember the first time a sales clerk ever said, "This lady needs some help." I remember when my children first learned to say "Mama."
And today was the first time anyone ever called me "Grandma." The little person who called me that was excited and happy. I'm glad that she likes her real grandma.

If you're a user of Digg, you should know that it recently redesigned and relaunched its website. This in itself is not that interesting since we always knew that was coming soon – however, what is interesting is that new categories have been added which make the site more useful to a wider audience.
From a design perspective, the site still looks and feels the same – clean Web 2.0 goodness with solid information architecture and all the most important bits in the right places.
What is different are the additional top level categories (where Technology is still the default on entering the site) in the left menu. These new channels include entertainment, gaming, science, world & business and online video. Underneath those top level categories are a number of new topics that aren't technology related, which is where my interest lies.
One of the features I really like is that if you're logged in as a user, you can define the categories and topics that you see on the home page – so now you have a filtered "wisdom of the crowds approach". Which makes the site more useful and also further motivates me to add my own content.
Digg has been one of those Web 2.0 success stories that started off modestly, but has grown into something of a phenomenon. To date it has surpassed Slashdot and seems to be close to surpassing the NY Times in terms of page views, so there is no doubt of it's popularity.
When you take the sheer number of page views it's getting daily, then add new topics which bolster its general appeal, with the ability to alter what you see by default on the home page, then I think you're starting to see something which is both a useful tool but also something that will rival most portals in it's ability to find relevant content quickly.
The internet is simply too big nor for any one person to get a handle on – so the wisdom of the crowds approach is one of the better ways of getting to good content – if lots of other people find things worth Digg'ing, then chances are that it will be interesting for you too. The opposite is true, and perhaps this is where the real power of Digg lies.
What is interesting are the categories and topics that have been chosen for the relaunch (from a database and code perspective, I imagine that adding new categories and topics would be trivial) – they are clearly niches that probably already have a higher percentage of savvy internet users, so I feel that the new topics and categories have been chosen well – certainly well enough to keep growing their user base and creating additional appeal and usefulness to non-users.
For me, the takeaway is clearly the value of using a "crossing the chasm" approach to generating buzz, getting users on board, and growing your market share, rather than the technology or features underneath the hood.

How to
Use the Activities
Inquiry Question
In this lesson, students learn how Abraham Lincoln's belief in freedom and democracy, his eloquence, and the support of family and community propelled him to the White House and uplifted him through the turbulent Civil War. The following activities will help them apply what they have learned.
Activity 1: A Springfield Newspaper Account
Lincoln's "House Divided Speech" (1858)
Make sure that all perspectives are represented by dividing students into teams having some writing articles in support of Lincoln (thus in support of his efforts to control the spread of slavery) while others write counter positions most likely from southern viewpoints.
Activity 2: A Visit from a Hometown Politician
Activity 3: Modern Reporting

March 30, 2006
NEW HAVEN, Conn. - In an article released by tennisrecruiting.net today, Yale was ranked in the Tennis Recruiting Network's Top 20 Men's Division I Tennis Recruiting Classes for 2006-2007. At No. 14, Yale was one of three teams in the Ivy League ranked in the top 20, behind Penn (No. 11) and ahead of Harvard (No. 16).
Though Yale will lose four seniors to graduation this year - Matthew Feldman, Milosz Gudzowski, Rowan Reynolds, and William Vidal - their top three recruits appear well-prepared to contribute to next year's team.
Connor Dawson of St. Charles, Ill., a five-star recruit according to the website, has competed this year in the USTA National Open in Cincinnati, OH as well as the USTA Spring National Championships in Mobile, Ala. Dawson achieved a No. 46 ranking on Jan. 17 in the network's national recruiting list, and is the No. 3 overall recruit from Illinois. Since Apr. 9, 2005, Dawson has amassed a 30-15 record in national competitions.
Joining Dawson will be Matthew Schimmel, a senior at the Bolles School in Jacksonville, Fla. Also a five-star recruit, Schimmel is currently ranked No. 48 in the network's national recruiting list and No. 8 among players from Florida. His tennis resume is impressive, as Schimmel is a two-time state champion in class 2A singles, won the state doubles class 2A title in 2004, and was a high school All-American in 2005.
Rounding out the players featured in the TRN's Top 20 list is Hyatt Bailey of Honolulu, HI. Bailey is currently the No. 244 recruit in the nation, and No. 3 among players from Hawaii. Bailey's tennis accomplishments over the past year include a win in the Kauai Fall Jr. Open on Oct. 9, 2005 in Koloa, HI and a semifinal appearance in the USTA Aloha Airlines Jr. Sectional held June 10-13, 2005 in Oahu.

(Reuters) - Augusta National's famed Eisenhower Tree, an iconic image at the Masters tournament, survived an attempt by the former U.S. president to have it chopped down but it could not survive a severe winter storm.
The loblolly pine, believed to be at least 100 years old, had to be removed from its position on the 17th fairway after being damaged by an ice storm that swept through the Masters venue in Augusta, Georgia last week.
"The loss of the Eisenhower Tree is difficult to accept," Augusta National and Masters chairman Billy Payne said in a statement on Sunday.
"We obtained opinions from the best arborists available and, unfortunately, were advised that no recovery was possible.
"We have begun deliberations of the best way to address the future of the 17th hole and to pay tribute to this iconic symbol of our history - rest assured, we will do both appropriately."
Payne said that Augusta National had sustained no further major damage and that the course had been opened for its members to play with ongoing preparations unaffected for this year's Masters.
The tree, which was about 65 feet tall, guarded the left side of the fairway at the par-four 17th and was strategically situated 210 yards from the tee.
It received its name because former U.S. president and club member Dwight Eisenhower hit into the tree so often he campaigned to have it removed.
David Owen, in his book 'The Making of the Masters', wrote that "Eisenhower hated the tree, because it invariably interfered with his slice.
"At the governors meeting in 1956 ... Eisenhower took the floor to propose cutting it down.
"(Clifford) Roberts (club chairman and co-founder) immediately ruled him out of order and adjourned the meeting, and the pine has been known ever since as the Eisenhower Tree."
The 2014 Masters will take place from Apr. 10-13.

|Oracle Workflow Administrator's Guide
Release 2.6.3
Part Number B10283-02
When you install Oracle Workflow Builder on a Microsoft Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows NT PC, Oracle Universal Installer assigns a default access level that is global to the PC and the operating system you are installing on. After installing Oracle Workflow Builder, you can have individual users on the PC change their access level to a new setting which overrides the default access level set for the PC. If a user does not define an access level, Oracle Workflow Builder assumes the value of the default access level for the PC. The access levels are stored in the Microsoft Windows registry.
If you are deploying Oracle Workflow Builder and workflow seed data to users in other parts of your organization, and you wish to discourage those users from modifying the seed data that you provide, you can have them operate Oracle Workflow Builder at an access level that is higher than the data's protection level. For example if you, as a seed data provider, are operating at an access level of 100 and the seed data you create is protected at a level of 100, then you should require the access level for your users or seed data consumers to be 101 or higher.
You can set a user's access level in Oracle Workflow Builder by having them choose About Oracle Workflow Builder... from the Help menu. In the About Oracle Workflow Builder window, change the Access Level field to a number higher than your seed data protection level, then choose OK.
You can also set the access level directly in the Microsoft Windows registry by using a registry editor such as regedit to edit the decimal value under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\Workflow\Level.
For the Workflow Definitions Loader program, you set the default access level that the program operates at for downloading process definitions to a file, by defining an environment variable called WF_ACCESS_LEVEL and setting its value using the appropriate operating system command.
Caution: Although you can modify your access level, Oracle Workflow does not support any customizations to seed data originally protected at a level 99 or lower. We STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you not change your access level to an unauthorized level for modifying protected data.

Donations Sought for Devastated Father of Murdered Teenage Girl
In the early morning hours of March 17, 2012, single parent Stephen Tully's only child, 17-year old Jasmyn Tully, was murdered in her sleep by another teenager in Tukwila, where she was spending the night with a friend (read our coverage of that here).
Jasmyn had attended Burien's Highline High School, and was most recently a student at South Seattle Community College.
The suspect, Kolby Jordan Clark, has confessed to the murder. Witnesses have stated that Clark told them he "felt an urge to hurt someone," but in spite of his confession, it appears that the trial may not take place for a year.
Jasmyn's Father, Steve, is not only devastated, but is also now struggling with homelessness, often having to resort to sleeping in his truck.
"Steve and his brother owned a successful construction business for 12 years building new houses and when the housing crisis hit, the business went under," said family friend Susan Fortier-Kelley. "He has been trying to work construction jobs but wasn't making enough to get by and he lost his house about seven months ago."
Fortier-Kelley adds:
Jasmyn, his 17-year old, had finally got back on track after falling in with the wrong crowd. She had been attending private school and was doing well but because of finances she ended up at Highline High School which is when things began to get rough. Last year she finally ended up at The South Seattle Community College high school diploma program and after receiving 4.0 grades she received an award from The King County Prosecutor's Office for her achievement and turning her life around – she was quite proud.
Steve is devastated, to say the least. Jasmyn was his only child and Steve was Jasmyn's only parent; Jasmyn's mother died about nine years ago. He's been staying with friends and sleeping in his truck with his two dogs Ezzy (a purebred Shiba Inu) and Luna (Husky/Shepard mix). He shouldn't have to be dealing with the stress of homelessness on top of grieving the loss of his daughter AND facing a long drawn out court battle which is quite possible.
Any person who knows Steve will tell you what a great guy he is; he's generous to a fault, extremely intelligent, fun to be around and has the kind of dry/witty humor that will have you laughing 'til your gut hurts. We've all been doing what we can to help but the donations are coming in at a snail's pace.
We have set up her memorial Facebook Page that includes the information about where to send funds and to sign the petition to change the name of the Burien Skate Park to The Jasmyn Tully Memorial Skate Park.
To help Steve Tully out during this difficult time, you can donate online here: http://goo.gl/jGq52
Friends and family members are also petitioning the City of Burien to change the name of the Burien Skate Park to "The Jasmyn Tully Memorial Park." To show your support for this idea, you can sign a petition at: http://signon.org/sign/change-the-name-of-the?source=c.url&r_by=4115477

Young Massachusetts film producers finding early success
Paul Bernon and Sam Slater aren't dabbling in the film industry. They're just not the dabbling type.
Bernon, 35, is a principal at Wellesley-based Rubicon Real Estate, which owns and manages about a million square feet of industrial and retail property in New England. Slater, 28, of Boston, oversees real estate holdings, agricultural properties, and his family's foundation.
These men make money. So when the two developers last year decided to launch a local movie company, Burn Later Productions, they took the venture quite seriously. Now they've got the film industry taking them seriously, as well.
Their indie comedy "Drinking Buddies," starring A-listers Olivia Wilde and Anna Kendrick, premiered at Austin's SXSW film festival last month and within days was picked up for US distribution by Magnolia Pictures. On Sunday, it won the Vail International Film Festival's award for Best Film. Next up is their film "Pasadena," a family drama starring Cheryl Hines and Peter Bogdanovich, which will have its debut at the Sarasota Film Festival next Saturday.
While Hollywood filmmakers have flocked to Massachusetts to take advantage of the state's generous tax credit, Bernon and Slater represent something else: wealthy, homegrown entrepreneurs interested in growing a film business based in Boston. Despite being known for their work in real estate, the newly minted producers say they're spending half their time on movie business, hoping to make Massachusetts a real base for the industry, rather than just an inexpensive place for out-of-towners to film.
More than that, they want the films they make to be good. "We're not doing it to be able to hang out with the actors," Bernon said. "The storytelling is really paramount to me."
Ever since the state enacted the film tax credit in 2006, Massachusetts has drawn filmmakers, from hometowners like Ben Affleck, who returned to tell Boston stories like "The Town" and "Gone Baby Gone," to Hollywood heavy hitters like David O. Russell who, three years after making "The Fighter" around Lowell, is now back in Boston shooting a political drama starring Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, and Christian Bale.
The tax credit, which reimburses producers up to 25 percent of the costs of filming in the state, has been controversial since its start, with critics saying it's too expensive and hasn't created enough jobs for Massachusetts workers, while supporters counter that besides creating jobs, the incentives support tourism by drawing visitors to area sites and movie locations.
Massachusetts Film Commissioner Lisa Strout says that Bernon and Slater are part of a new crop of young, business-minded movie lovers who come to the film industry with sharp entrepreneurial skills.
Strout likens Bernon and Slater to filmmakers like Megan Ellison, the 27-year-old daughter of Oracle cofounder and billionaire Larry Ellison. Megan Ellison founded a film production company and has gone on to make prestigious movies such as "The Master" and "Zero Dark Thirty." Strout said these producers are committed to the creative process, but they also bring an understanding of the bottom line to their projects.
"I think it's fascinating to people who understand finance," she said, of the film industry. "How it gets put together, how much of it is debt, how much of it is equity."
Bernon wanted to be a filmmaker when he was younger and studied film at Boston University. His wife, Ashley, remembers him writing a lengthy paper about Stanley Kubrick's "Eyes Wide Shut."
"He had fully analyzed the whole thing," she said.
Bernon wound up pursuing real estate, working for Intercontinental Real Estate Corp., and joined Rubicon in 2004. Three years later, he found himself returning to his old passion by writing scripts with a friend who went to Babson, Chris Modoono.
One of their shared projects wound up turning into "Teacher of the Year," a comedy starring Lexington's Rachel Dratch, formerly of "Saturday Night Live." They partially financed the project and raised money from investors. The short wound up running on Will Ferrell's popular comedy website, FunnyOrDie.com.
It also played at the Tribeca Film Festival, due in part to Slater, who met Bernon at a dinner, talked about his interest in film, and wound up signing on to help finance post-production and promote the movie.
Slater loved the work. "I need to have four or five jobs at the same time," said Slater, who studied history at George Washington University. "I'll always be doing five different things."
Within months of finishing "Teacher," Bernon and Slater set up Burn Later and got rolling on "Pasadena," which was filmed in California in 2012. Bernon had also already signed on to help finance another film, "An Oversimplification of Her Beauty," executive-produced by Jay-Z, which will open in limited release this month.
Next, he and Slater took a meeting about the "Drinking Buddies" project, which would be helmed by "mumblecore" director Joe Swanberg, best known for his indie features. They were interested. Of course, Bernon admits that he didn't even know what mumblecore was. (The genre is known for its naturalistic and often improvised dialogue.)
Still, they went for it, investing in the project, temporarily moving to Chicago for the filming, working to secure a cast, and getting a crash course from more experienced members of the crew such as cinematographer Ben Richardson, who worked on "Beasts of the Southern Wild," and coproducer Alicia Van Couvering, who worked on Lena Dunham's breakout film "Tiny Furniture."
Couvering said that despite coming from the real estate world, Bernon and Slater arrived on set as creative filmmakers.
"Paul and Sam really want to be a part of movies happening," she said. "I hesitate to say they're in it for the right reasons, because it sounds patronizing, but they have a real awareness about how the system works."
Their business and personal skills were strangely right for an independent movie set. Part of the job of being a producer is corralling talent and keeping people happy. Bernon and his wife are well-known on the philanthropic scene and have hosted political fund-raisers, and Slater is a longtime Boston night-life fan, who recently bought and remodeled The Place downtown.
"Producing a movie is a lot like throwing a big wedding — with a bunch of celebrities and also an army," Couvering said. "You kind of have to bring a party-host vibe to it."
Steve Samuels, who is also a Boston real estate developer and has produced films such as "Michael Clayton" and "In the Valley of Elah," said both fields require you to be able to choose the right partners, evaluate risks, and balance business with creativity, which is why he thinks Bernon and Slater have found success.
"These are all hallmarks of successful real estate entrepreneurs," Samuels said. "The trick is to use those tools in film as well."
With good early buzz on "Drinking Buddies," expected to be a summer release, the partners find themselves in high demand. They won't say what's next, but they promise that whatever is in the works will be filmed in Massachusetts.
Primarily, they want to film movies here so that they can be at home with their families. (The Bernons have two children and Slater is engaged to yoga teacher Jessica Klapman.) But also, because of their real estate jobs, it's cost-effective for them to film locally because they can make use of space they own or manage. Had "Drinking Buddies" been filmed in Boston — which was Bernon and Slater's original hope — they would have had bars and restaurants at their disposal, as well as thousands of square feet of office space.
And, of course, they want to show off their home state.
"Not to geek out," Bernon said, going on about his hometown loyalty. "We're proud to be from Massachusetts."

The Patriots added some depth to several thin areas with a series of roster moves.
According to Field Yates of ESPNBoston.com, the Pats activated defensive end Jermaine Cunningham Saturday, after he served a four-game suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing substance policy.
To make the roster spot for him, they waived defensive tackle Ron Brace, a former second-round pick who had a grand total of four tackles in 10 games this year.
They also promoted wide receiver Kamar Aiken and defensive back Malcolm Williams from the practice squad, addressing thin spots heading into tomorrow's finale.

Jihadi supporters arrested in Spain, Germany
MADRID (AP) — Eight people have been arrested in Spain and a further three in Germany for suspected links with jihadi groups, especially in Iraq and Syria, authorities said Monday.
A Spanish Interior Ministry statement said police detained the eight in Madrid early Monday on suspicion of recruiting jihadi militants for the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, or ISIL.
It said the cell was led by a person who live in Spain but had previously been jailed in Guantanamo Bay after being arrested in Afghanistan in 2001.
Spain gave no immediate details on the nationalities of the arrested.
In Berlin, prosecutors' spokesman Martin Steltner said police on Saturday arrested a 30-year-old Frenchman suspected of "supporting a terrorist organization" by fighting in Syria for the group.
Steltner said the suspect, who wasn't named because of German privacy laws, was wounded in fighting. He has also allegedly appeared in ISIL propaganda videos.
A court will decide on his extradition to France in the coming weeks.
The French Interior Ministry said in a statement that the detainee had been identified by French intelligence agency DGSI as "dangerous and susceptible of acting on French soil." The statement said he was arrested upon arrival from Istanbul.
German police also arrested a 27-year-old German woman at Frankfurt airport on Thursday, and a 17-year-old German in Stuttgart on Friday. Both are being linked to Islamist extremist groups.
European authorities have stepped up their cross-border co-operation since four people were killed in Brussels by a suspected French Islamic extremist returned from Syria.
The suspect in that shooting passed through Frankfurt airport earlier this year, triggering an alert from German authorities to their French colleagues but they didn't ask for his arrest.
Angela Charlton in Paris and Frank Jordans in Berlin contributed to this report.

Intel GMA 500
Template:Article summary start Template:Article summary text Template:Article summary heading Template:Article summary wiki Template:Article summary wiki Template:Article summary wiki Template:Article summary heading Template:Article summary link Template:Article summary end
The Intel Poulsbo Chipset, also known by its official names "GMA 500" and "Intel System Controller Hub US15W", is typically found on boards for the Atom Z processor series. It embeds a PowerVR SGX 535 graphics core developed by Imagination Technologies and then licensed by Intel. Its major advantages include the hardware decoding capability of up to 720p/1080i video content in various state-of-the-art codecs, e.g. H.264.
As the graphics hardware was not developed by Intel themselves, the standard Intel drivers do not work with this hardware. Furthermore, at least two different accelerated Linux drivers for this hardware exist, each of which have major problems. Alternatively, there is a generic framebuffer driver solution, but this is unaccelerated.
On this page you find comprehensive information about how to get the best out of your Poulsbo hardware using Arch Linux.

Drivers: Advantages and Disadvantages
Kernel's psb-gfx module
With kernel 2.6.39, a new psb_gfx module appeared in the kernel developed by Alan Cox to support Poulsbo hardware. Currently this is very rudimentary but the development is very active and this should get better and better with upcoming kernels.
- Native resolution (1366x768) with early KMS (on Asus Eee 1101HA)
- Up to date kernel and Xorg
- 2D acceleration
- Nothing to do to make it work
- Did not manage to get native resolution (e.g 1366x768)
- Buggy backlight control (Fixed in Linux 3.0.0)
- No 3D acceleration possible
- Poor performances (use mplayer with x11 or sdl so fullscreen video will be quite slow)
PSB/GMA500 Driver
- Native resolution
- 2D acceleration
- Possible 3D acceleration with work and luck - Fedora, as well as Ubuntu, have this [2]
- Backlight control possible
- Performance not on par with IEGD (Youtube videos play smoothly at 360p, perhaps 480p, but no higher)
- Not supported through official packages. Use of AUR required.
- Needs kernel <=2.6.37 and Xorg 1.9
PSB/GMA500 Driver with FBDEV
- Up to date Xorg without hacking libdrm
- Native resolution
- 2D acceleration
- Backlight control possible
- Needs kernel <=2.6.37
- Performance comparable to FBDEV solution
- Not supported through official packages. Use of AUR required.
IEGD Driver
- X works
- Native resolution
- Basic OpenGl Capabilities
- 2D acceleration
- HD video playback without stuttering
Disadvantages As of August 12 2010:
- Artifacts in video playback
- Suspend states are broken
- Works only for kernel <= 2.6.31 & Xorg server <= 1.6
- Lengthy process to install
- Not supported through official packages.
FBDEV Driver
- Combined with 915resolution-static and Uvesafb, allows native resolution
- Up to date kernel and Xorg
- No recompiling needed on kernel updates
- Video playback may not be smooth
- Flash video playback, such as on YouTube, not smooth above 360p
- Full-screen Flash video playback useless
- No Xv video acceleration whatsoever
Installation and configuration procedure is is discussed later.
VESA Driver
- Combined with 915resolution-static and Uvesafb, possibly allows native resolution (untested)
- Up to date kernel and Xorg
- No recompiling needed on kernel updates
- Video playback may not be smooth
- Full-screen Flash video playback useless
- Slower than the FBDEV driver
- Not supported through official packages. Use of AUR required.
Do I Need To Downgrade?
As of November, 2011 you do not need to downgrade anything to use the psb-gfx, FBDEV, or VESA Xorg video drivers.
However, if you wish to experiment with the PSB or IEGD driver, you will need to downgrade your kernel and maybe xorg-server, along with several other packages.
Xorg-server 1.7 or higher (current Arch)
Kernel's gma500_gfx module
If you have a kernel newer than 2.6.39, then it should work out of the box.
The module is psb_gfx or gma500_gfx:
$ find /lib/modules -iname "*_gfx*" /lib/modules/3.3.3-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/gma500_gfx.ko.gz
For native resolution you may have to use early KMS. Add
gma500_gfx to your
/etc/mkinitcpio.conf MODULES array and update initramfs:
# mkinitcpio -p linux
Before linux 3.3 the
gma500_gfx module was called
Xorg should use fbdev (xf86-video-fbdev) by default. You can check it in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.
PSB/GMA500 Driver
You need kernel <=2.6.37 to use the PSB-Driver
Install from custom repository
Add the following repository to your
[poulsbo-old] Server = http://kissmyarch.eu/gma500/poulsbo-old/
and install the psb driver with
# pacman -Syu xorg-x11-drv-psb
Build and Install from AUR (xorg 1.9)
Build and install the following packages in this exact order
1) psb-firmwareAUR 2) psb-kmodAUR 3) libdrm-poulsboAUR 4) xpsb-glxAUR 5) xorg-x11-drv-psbAUR
Configure xorg.conf
To tell Xorg to use this driver, change the Driver line in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf to read as:
Driver "psb"
You can also try adding a couple options to try improving acceleration or stability:
Option "ShadowFB" "true"
and possibly:
Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
Cross fingers and restart X.
Hardware accelerated video playback
In order to have video acceleration, you must
- Install xorg-x11-drv-psbAUR
- Install libva-freeworldAUR from the AUR or from above given repository
- Install mplayer-vaapi from [community]
- Run
mplayer -vo vaapi -va vaapi videofile
PSB/GMA500 Driver with FBDEV
The advantage of this solution is that you just add a kernel module but you do not need to bother about specific Xorg version or libdrm while keeping backlight control.
It makes it simpler to manage than the PSB/GMA500 Driver and FBDEV Driver solutions.
Build and Install from AUR (xorg 1.9)
Build and install the following packages in this exact order
1) psb-firmwareAUR 2) psb-kmodAUR
You can either download these packages from the repository given above.
Install the fbdev Xorg driver
# pacman -S xf86-video-fbdev
Configure your system
Load the module at startup by adding "psb" to you MODULES in
To avoid an unnecessary reboot, as root perform to get your module loaded:
# modprobe psb
To tell Xorg to use the framebuffer driver, change the Driver line in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf to read as:
Driver "fbdev"
Restart X and you are done !
FBDEV Driver (xf86-video-fbdev)
v86d and
pacman -S v86d xf86-video-fbdev
You will also need to install 915resolution-staticAUR from the AUR or the repository given above.
Create the file
/etc/modprobe.d/uvesafb.conf, if it does not exist, and change it so the only non-comment line is this:
options uvesafb mode_option=1280x800-32 scroll=ywrap
Make sure you use the right resolution for your setup -- if you have a 1366x768 screen, for example, change the "mode_option=" number to "1366x768-32".
/lib/initcpio/hooks/915resolution and make sure it has the right resolution for your setup -- the same resolution as specified in
Next, edit
/etc/mkinitcpio.conf and add
915resolution and
v86d to the "HOOKS", like this:
HOOKS="base udev 915resolution v86d ..."
Make sure you run mkinitcpio:
mkinitcpio -p linux
/etc/X11/xorg.conf and change driver to fbdev:
Driver "fbdev"
See the Uvesafb article for more information.
VESA Driver
xf86-video-vesa and install.
# pacman -S xf86-video-vesa
Then edit
/etc/X11/xorg.conf to use it.
Driver "vesa"
Xorg-server 1.6
Please note that Kernel 2.6.31 and Xorg server 1.6 are no longer supported by the Arch Linux team.
Installing Xorg-server 1.6
Add to your
/etc/pacman.conf the following custom repository and make sure it is higher than the others.
[xorg16] Server = http://catalyst.apocalypsus.net/repo/xorg16/i686/
Then uninstall old packages if any, and install xorg
# pacman -R xorg-server xf86-input-evdev xf86-input-mouse xf86-input-synaptics xf86-input-keyboard xf86-video-vesa xf86-video-fbdev # pacman -S xf86-evdev xorg-server xf86-input-keyboard xf86-input-mouse xf86-input-synaptics xf86-video-vesa openssl-compatibility
An older version of
libssl is required. This can be fulfilled using the openssl-compatibilityAUR package from the AUR.
mkdir openssl-compatibility cd openssl-compatibility wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/openssl-compatibility/PKGBUILD makepkg -s # pacman -U openssl-compatibility*.pkg.tar.xz
Once this is done, you may reboot the computer. Alternatively, kill all instances of Xorg and restart.
The Xorg 1.6 server should start without issue.
FBDEV Driver using xorg-server-126.96.36.1991
xf86-video-fbdev driver is not currently in the Chakra Project's repositories. Download and install from here
$ wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6228981/poulsbo/i686/fbdev/xf86-video-fbdev-0.4.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz # pacman -U xf86-video-fbdev-0.4.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
Installing IEGD-enabled kernel
This process is still under development. Some info may be found here.
Installing IEGD binary drivers
Troubleshooting Xorg 1.6
Driver cannot be found
If X complains that the driver cannot be found, you may have the FBDEV driver specified in xorg.conf file, but the FBDEV driver is not installed as described in above. Revert back to "vesa" by finding the line with the video driver - fbdev - and alter it,
Driver "fbdev"
Driver "vesa"
Then make sure to follow the steps in the aforementioned section on installing FBDEV.
Taking Advantage of non-FBDEV/VESA Driver
Set backlight brightness
This has only been tested with the PSB driver
This is pertinent to machines with built-in LCD screens, not to devices such as the Fit-PC
With a driver installed and loaded (via modprobe or at boot), all that is needed to set the brightness is sending a number (0-100) to
This obviously requires sysfs to be enabled in the kernel, as it is in the Arch Linux kernel.
An example: to set display to minimal brightness, issue this command as root:
echo 0 > /sys/class/backlight/psb-bl/brightness
Or, for full luminosity:
echo 100 > /sys/class/backlight/psb-bl/brightness
A very short script is available to do this with less typing written by mulenmar.
#! /bin/sh sudo sh -c "echo $1 > /sys/class/backlight/psb-bl/brightness"
Simply save it as brightness.sh, and give it executable permissions. Then you can use it like so:
Set brightness to minimum:
./brightness.sh 0
Set brightness to half:
./brightness.sh 50
Sudo may obviously ask for your password, so you have to be in the sudoers file.

Wisconsin lawmaker reintroduces bill to make English state's official language
A Republican lawmaker has reintroduced a bill that would make English Wisconsin's official language.
Rep. Andre Jacque's proposal also would require of state and local government to put their documents in English. The measure does allow exceptions in individual cases, however. It also prohibits the government from blocking anyone's efforts to learn a foreign language.
The measure mirrors a proposal former state Rep. Marlin Schneider, a Wisconsin Rapids Democrat, introduced in 2009. That bill never received a hearing.
The fate of Jacque's measure is uncertain. Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald, a Juneau Republican, signed onto Schneider's bill as a co-sponsor in 2009 but his spokesman didn't immediately return a message. A spokeswoman for Assembly Speaker Robin Vos also didn't immediately return a message.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — Orders for durable goods rose 2.2% in February to mark the biggest gain in three months, but the details of the report showed widespread weakness and signaled that business investment is unlikely to give first-quarter growth much of a boost.
Orders for durable goods climbed 2.2% last month to a seasonally adjusted $229.4 billion, but the increase was largely spearheaded by a snapback in demand for autos and commercial aircraft, according to Commerce Department data. Orders for most other goods that play a big part in business investment such as computers and heavy machinery declined.
The sluggish pace of business investment, if it continues, could imperil forecasts for faster U.S. growth this year. Most economists had been predicting investment would surge in 2014 after several years of soft business spending.
Tampa, Charlotte among gainers.
• U.S. homeownership at 18-year low
The increase in orders last month was mainly powered by higher demand for commercial aircraft and, to a lesser extent, autos. Orders for airplanes jumped 13.6% and booking for autos rose 3.6%. Those categories fell sharply in January and December, so a rebound was expected.
Stripping out the volatile transportation sector, orders rose a much smaller 0.2%. Bookings fell for heavy machinery, computers, network-communications equipment and electrical equipment.
As a result, a broad measure of business investment known as core capital goods orders fell 1.3% in February to mark the fourth decline in the past six months. And January's increase was revised sharply lower. Core orders exclude defense spending and transportation.
What's more, core orders have been virtually unchanged in the first two months of 2014 compared to the same period one year earlier.
"For the first two months of the first quarter, business investment, both present and future, is not looking terribly encouraging," said senior economist Jennifer Lee of BMO Capital Markets.
The lackluster February report, however, doesn't jibe with a series of recent surveys of company executives showing that manufacturing is on the upswing. Many economists believe it's a sign spending will accelerate in the spring, but the surveys are somewhat like opinion polls and they are not always a good predictor of short-term trends.
Perhaps the best piece of news in the February report was the first increase in orders for primary metals (1.8%) in four months. These metals are used in a variety of durable goods and orders usually rise when demand picks up.
Shipments of core capital goods orders, meanwhile, advanced 0.5% after a 1.4% drop in January. The number is used by the government to help calculate how fast the economy grows each quarter, but based on the first two readings of 2014, business spending won't supply much help.
Economists polled by MarketWatch forecast gross domestic product to slip to 1.6% in the first quarter from 2.4% in the 2013 fourth quarter.
In January, durable-goods orders were revised down to show a 1.3% decline instead of a 1% drop. While a harsh winter contributed to the decline, bad weather alone cannot explain the muted level of business investment in early 2014.

Vol. XXVI — No. 1 Bethel Junior College and Seminary, St. Paul, Minn. October 7, 1946
Lawson, Berglund,
Anderson Join .
College Teachers
Those stages of promotion seem
to operate at Bethel—Freshman,
Sophomore and then on to Facul-ty!
At least, of the additions to
the staff this term, two are gradu-ates
of this and additional schools,
who have reached that third de-gree
of elevation and are privileg-ed
to teach.
The three Faculty Freshmen are
Mr. Maurice Lawson, Mr. Elving
Anderson, and Miss Gladys Berg-lund,
bringing the total of full-time
instructors up to twenty-nine.
Mr. Lawson, who joins the Eng-lish
department and is particularly
interested in literature, comes, to
the school from a pastorate in
Joliet, Illinois. His home is in
Meriden, Connecticut, and he is a
graduate both of the College and
Seminary as well as of Wheaton.
Mr. Lawson has had six years of
experience as a pastor and is at
present serving as interim pastor
at Stanchfield, Minnesota.
Mrs. Lawson, too, is a graduate
of Bethel, as well as of the Uni-versity
of Minnesota, and she has
taken the duties of housemother
at the girls' dormitory.
In taking over the zoology de-partment,
Mr. Anderson returns to
a place in which he has already
had some experience. Having
graduated from the college and
completed two years at the semi-nary,
Mr. Anderson went on to the
University of Minnesota to study
for his B. A., and for a while was
assisting in the zoology depart-ment
both at Bethel and at the
University. Although his home is
in Nebraska, he comes to the fac-ulty
new from a student-pastorate
in Rusk, Wisconsin.
It is interesting to note one fur-ther
link with Bethel in that Mr.

The most solemn event of the
season, Freshman initiation, oc-cured
last Friday night, September
27, in the dining hall of the girls'
dormitory. This was the perfect
end of a perfect week (for Sopho-mores).
During the week the Freshman
put on an attitude of humility and
respect toward all upperclassmen.
The week started with a Freshman
tour and an all-school picnic at
Minnehaha Park Monday night.
The Freshmen girls with their pig-tails
and beanies could easily be
distinguished from the Sopho-mores,
the Sophomores being by
far the better looking. Freshmen
fellows were distinguishable by
their lack of self-confidence. Burt
Anderson even endeavoured to im-

over an artist's shoulder and

and of sharing with him his
ideas and thoughts was afforded

on Tuesday, when a chalk-talk
lecture was given by Mr. Garnet
Hazard C. P. E. Mr. Hazard is a
Canadian etcher and painter and
was introduced by Mr. Lombard,
Chairman of the Department of
Lectures and Concerts of the Uni-versity
of Minnesota.
As the lecturer drew his chalk
scenes of the snow drifts at sun-set,
of a country lake and of a
mountain glacier, he explained his
use of form, line, tone and color
and how he obtained a center of

this afternoon at 3:00 in the Girls'

Following the tea there will be
a short program at which the fac-ulty
wives will be introduced and
"Little Sisters" welcomed. A can-dlelight

clidn't help at all, especially since
he had his moustache shaved at

Mysterious "accidents" happened
all week in the girl's dormitory.
Lillian Basch has been losing sleep
tPying to figure out who put corn-flakes
in her bed. Several of the
girls found their sheets in 'knots
and their rooms in general dis-order.
Perhaps the fact that Eric
was in the dorm had something to
do with it. Friday night several
rooms were filled with an odor
strangely like that of limburger
Everyone noticed the sleepy
eyes and haggard faces (not to
mention sore feet) of several fel-
"The contractor was in my of-fice
a few days ago and I think
we may say we hope part of the
new dormitories • will be ready for
occupation within two weeks. But
please emphasize 'part' and 'hope'."
So declared President H. C.
Wingblade in an interview that
should offer a bright ray of hope
to the temporary residents of the
Boys' Farm Club.
"I want to be careful on 'part'
and 'hope'," the President continu-ed.
"That is rather like Dr. Riley,
who would decare a book to be

At present, the third floor of the
men's dormitory shows advanced
signs of completion, with most of
the plastering complete, i'adiators
fitted and dressers in place in
most of the rooms. Some of the
electric work remains, but the
President's hopes appear well

Hop Giese, and Calvin-,Lundberg,
who were given the opportunity
to get some walking exercise. Bob
Daley and Russ Voight also had a
long walk one night, even though
(or maybe because) they are up-perclassmen.
Friday night the Freshmen were
led into the dining hall one by one,
after removing one shoe. Bill
Lindroth had a hard time because
of his high-heeled boots, and the
nurse, June Edmun, almost caught
a cold going barefoot.
Bailiff Bud Peterson led the
audience in singing a few songs,
beginning with "Super Suds." Then
as Bob Nelson played a solemn

plastering, painting and electrical
fittings have begun, while a hope-ful
indication is given in the fact
that bath tubs and kitchen units
have - been moved into all the
apartments on the third floor.
It is anticipated that the men's
dormitory will eventually house 90
students and the married couple's
dormitory provide 32 apartments.
Meanwhile some 166 men occupy
temporary accommodation in the
fair grounds, while some four fami-lies
live in trailer-houses on the

the married couples' apart-ments

showing. For those who are in-terested,
they are a masterpiece
of compactness. The lower left

it, the refrigeration unit. On

is situated a four-burner gas

put my neck out any further." So
the situation remains — Hope for
The t w o new dormitories, to-gether
with a record enrollment
of approximately 500 students (of-ficial
statistics are not yet com-plete

enlarged curriculum mark the sev-enty-
sixth historic year of Bethel
College and Seminary. But already
bigger Bethel has shown that it
must be bigger yet. The new Phys-ics
department meets in the old
Domestic Science Lunch Room,
while Zoology and Modern World
History classes are so large that
they have to meet in the chapel.
Accommodation is already taxed
to the limit and it is learned that
a new administration building is
planned as fart of the centennial
program. This building, which will
be placed between the college and
seminary buildings, facing Snell-ing
Avenue and perhaps set back
from the road, is planned to house
the office, the library and the aud-itorium.

Editor Views
Coming Year
The fall returns and brings with
it the petty round of irritating
studies and assignments. With it
returns the CLARION. This year
encouraged by a competant staff,
we decided to begin publication as
early as possible, even though it
means breaking a precedent.
Last spring an editor, and assist-ant
editor, and a business manager
were elected to serve as nucleus
for this year's CLARION staff.
While the wisdom of electing edi-tors
by popular vote without due
regard to qualifications is open to
question, the purpose is served in
that no time need be wasted in be-ginning
Our masthead states that the
CLARION is a bi-monthly publica-tion,
and so it shall be throughout
this year. Vacations excluded, pub-lication
will be on the first and
third weeks of each month.
Our staff is, we believe, as good
as can be found in any college.
Some of the workers are inexperi-enced
but willing; others are wil-ling
and experienced. Our news
editor, E. W. J. Avey, has had
four years of commercial experi-ence
in England. Beverley Boener,
sports editor for this issue, held
that position for four years in high
school and college, in addition to
work with the PIONEER PRESS.
Feature editor Herb- Ellison has
had extensive journalistic training,
and religious editor Ruth Bridges
was assistant editor of the Chicago
area Bible Club NEWS.
As issue succeeds_ issue the
CLARION may undergo change.
All possible innovations will be in-corporated
into the next issue in
order that the rest of the year
may see a regularly published, uni-form
paper. The quality of writing
bids fair to be high and a credit
to Bethel. May we, under God and
with His guidance, uphold the
ideals set before us by our prede-cessors.

The best way to preach the Gos-pel
is to live it. At least it must
be lived before it is preached to be
effective. Thus the Saviour lived
the Sermon on the Mount for thir-ty
years before He preached one
word of it. And just before He
died He set a Divine and final
standard of life and godliness for
all "then which should hereafter
believe," a standard ever binding
on all God's children. "I have giv-en
to you," He said, "an example
that ye should do as I have done
to you." This was specially in re-gard
to humility and forebearance
to fellow believers. Peter, writing
later, enlarges this "example"
which He left, in regard to suffer-ing.
And God would never have us
content with a lower standard.
—Dr. Northcote Deck
An old Civil War veteran visited
a country school and was asked to
speak to the children.
He- told them of some experi-ences
in the heat of battle—when
bullets whistled and shells scream-ed
and men fell.
At recess time the boys gathered
about the veteran, somewhat awed,
and asked if it really was true that
he heard bullets whistle and shells
scream and saw men fall about
"Yes," said the veteran, "it was
"Were you not afraid?" came
the rejoiner.
"Yes, I was afraid—" confessed
the soldier.
"Well, why did you not run if
you were afraid?"
"Why did I not run? That may
be a long story. In the first place
I did not run because I did not
want to be a coward. We soldiers
hated the word 'coward.'
"When I believed in the cause
for which we were fighting. We
wanted to save the Union and
bring freedom to the slaves.
"But also I had a man to my
right who did not run, and a man
to my left who did not run, and I
did not run; so we all marched
shoulder to shoulder to victory."
That is a good portraiture for
Bethel this year. Shoulder to
shoulder shall we march for,vard -
to victory, each one inspiring the
other on—with his faithfulness, his
courage and his sympathetic co-operation.
Forward March!
"Choose Ye This
Day" for Eternity
A man may lack liberty, and yet
be happy; a man may lack food,
and yet be content; a man may
lack clothing, and yet be com-fortable;
but he that lacks Salva-tion,
lacks everything that can do
him good, in this life and the
next. Nothing worse can be imag-ined,
than to be without hope and
without God, even in this world.
"Not by Works"
Do not mistake, much that a
man does is right and proper; but
if it is– to be acceptable to God,
it must be the outcome of life af-ter
he has trusted in the finished
work of Christ. What we do must
be the result of our forgiveness,
not the means by which we try to
obtain it.
"Only One"
There were two classes in the
day of Noah's flood, those who
were inside the ark and those who
were outside; two in the parable
of the gospel net, the good fish
and the bad; two in the parable of
the ten virgins, the wise and the
foolish; two in the account of the
judgement-day, the sheep and the
goats ; two sides of the throne, the
right hand and the left; two and
only two abodes when the last
sentence is passed, only heaven
and hell.

32 Lagers Greet Coach Paul Edwards
Four Veterans of Last Year Return
To Bolster Championship Hopes
Members of the league this
year are as follows:
A l) STIN
Edwards has made initial con-tacts
with the other schools, but
as yet the schedule for the season
is only tentative. The first game
will probably be a non-conference
tilt against Augsburg, which is al-most
a tradition. Other non-con-ference
games will include Wheat-on,
Superior State Teachers Col-lege
and Sioux Falls.
The Comets of Concordia, tradi-tional
rivals of the local quintet
will be one of the strongest con-tenders
for the league champion-ship
this year. Many of the stu-dent
body and certainly Coach Ed-wards
can not forget the 74-48
defeat that Concordia handed our
tribe in December of 1945 and no
doubt Concordia will be out to
scalp our Indians for the two de-feats
that we later handed her.
An attempt is being made by col-lege
authorities to secure the use
of the Minnesota Farm School
Gym for all of our home games
this year and if we are able to
use the Farm School hardwood
floor, local fans will see a brand
of ball that will be much better
and faster than that which they
are used to seeing on our own
sinall court.
This year marks Coach Ed-wards
third year at Bethel as
mentor and thus far he has a
very fine record. Last year he
guided the quintet through 15
games with only three losses
and while doing so they cop-ped
the conference crown.
Before coming to Bethel as
basketball coach, Edwards was
a mainstay on the Wheaton
cage team for three seasons
and during his last year he
was captain.
Bethel has a proven coach and
players that have won games and
all that remains for a winning
team is the Bethel Student Body.
With the student body supporting
the casbra five, the local Tribe
should be able to retain the champ -
ionship of the Southern Minnesota
Junior College Basketball Confer-ence.
Johnson Elected
As Council Rep
Last Monday afternoon the up
and coming athletes of Bethel
elected Everet Johnson to repre-sent
them on the College Student
Council for the coming year. Since
there are so many men on the
campus this year this seat will be
an important post for Johnson to
fill. He replaces Robert Sandin
and won the fight to represent the
athletics in a ballot over Jim Ren-tz
and Neil Hesson.

College Bask etballers have
stated that they will take on an
alumni quintet, faculty five or
seminary casbra team one at a
time or any combination at any
time from date of this publica-tion.
It seems as some of the
former regulars have excited
the young freshmen and have
stirred up considerable com-motion.

fellow Seminary students to-gether
and shellack these z"im-petuous

is added to the curriculum
the new subject of French, which
together with Spanish completes
Miss Berglund's language schedule.
Although new to Bethel, Miss Berg-lund
is no strangero the Twin
Cities, her home being in Minne-nolis.
She received her educa-tion
at Washburn High School,
Minneapolis, and at the University
of Minnesota. Since graduation
she has taught in high schools for
some three years.
Miss Berglund is of the Lutheran
persuasion, but of Bethel com-ments:
"I think the spirit is won-derful
and the atmosphere pleas-ant."
Another new face will be seen in
the office, where Mr. M. Carlson,
a brother-in-law of Professor An-ton
Pearson, has come from Chi-cago
to serve as accountant. In-cidently,
Central Baptist Church,
St. Paul, was pleased to welcome
Mr. Carlson as their - organist. To
the custodian staff has been added
Mr. W. Stone, from Red Wing, a
brother of the Rev. Paul Stone,
ho is at present serving as Bap-tist
Chaplain to the Twin City
H ospitals.
One more welcome addition—al-though
it is to be hoped that she
w ill be left with little to do—is
Miss June Edman, R. N., who has
opened up nursing facilities in the
school. For those who do not

Coach Paul Edwards has been running his 32 cage aspirants through
their paces since reporting for basketball last Monday afternoon.
Four veteran hardwood casbra men from last years' Southern
Minnesota Junior College basketball team are on hand this year and
are rounding into shape nicely. Bob Sandin, captain during the 1944-45
season, is again on hand and will likely hold down a starting position,
but he along with Jim Rentz, Roy Nelson, and Bob Daley will be hard
pressed this year to hold down varsity positions. Sandin garnered 70
points last season during the gruelling 15 game schedule. Rentz was
credited with 43 and was followed by Nelson with 37 and Daley the last
of the returning lettermen scored 18 points.
Last season there were only
four active teams in the league,
but this year the conference league
will scart eight teams who will
furnish the Indians some stiff com-petition
in their defense of the
conference crown.

In Near Future
A great Home-Coming is being
planned by the student council for
October 25, but no details are as
yet available. It is the intention,
aparently, to make this a memor-able
program in every way.
Missionary Day has been arrang-ed
for October 23, when it is hoped
to have both the Rev. Herman
Tegenfeldt and the Rev. Reuben .
Holm present for the meetings and
conferences. Mr. Tegenfeldt is
home on furlough from Burma,
where he was engaged in educa-tional
work in - the Kachin Hills
and where he was later associated
with the late Rev. Brayton Case
in reconstruction work. Mr. Holm
has been working in the Assam
province of India.
Other forthcoming events, of
which note should be made. is the
series of Special Meeting's, to be
conducted throughout the week be-ginning
October 14 by Paul Rees
with the object of a deepening of
our spiritual life.
Dorm Installs

Chilly Sleeping at
Unheated El Barno
Crowded conditions, cold morn-ings,
and other inconveniences of
barracks life are the order of the
day for the 120 Bethel men now
temporarily housed in the Farm
Boy's Club on the State Fair
Grounds. This doesn't seem to
have dampened their spirits how-ever,
and a warm sense of fellow-ship
has sprung up among them.
As the building is without heat-ing
facilities, there is some specu-lation
as to what to expect if the
dorm isn't finished before the cold
weather sets in. Even now, the job
of dressing in the morning is a
hurried and chilly affair.
a larger variety of food on the
menu. The hot dish, which was
formerly prepared in the college
dining hall, then brought over, is
now cooked in the Coffee Shop's
own kitchen.
A new toaster, a malted milk
mixer, and a four-burner silex cof-fee
maker gives the students a
more complete and quick service.
This year the book store carries
a --more complete line of textbooks
and school supplies. Of interest to
most students is the new supply
of stationery with a printed head-ing,
"Bethel College & Seminary"
printed on each sheet of stationery
and on each envelope.

balance of light and shade.'
Art, he explained, was not copy-ing
nature but was an interpreta-tion.
The artist wanted to reveal
to others the experience he had
had and to share with them some
of his great secrets. Rembrandt
did not paint mere faces but real
souls and managed to produce a
symphony of color. The artist at-tempted
to get what the lecturer
called the . true rhythm of life and
to real the graceful' anatomy of
"The artist takes what he wants
from nature," declared Mr. Haz-ard,
"and leaves the rest. He aims
at a balance but puts music into
his work so that others may see
beauty where they hadn't noticed
it before."
Dealing with the question of
light and shade as he produced
one of his scenes in black-and-white,
Mr. Hazard remarked that
some artists painted in an abstract
way and relied entirely upon geo-metric
shapes to stimulate t h e
same emotions.
Talking with chalk, the /speaker
not only charmed his listeners
with his own pictures but instruct-ed
them in the appreciation of art
that not only 'could they visit the
art galleries but could at the same
time view the pictures intelli-gently.
Thrill Students
"Get on Board, Little Children—
There's room for many a more"
was one of the best received spirit-uals
sung in chapel here on Wed-nesday,
September 26, when the
Jubilee Singers were guests. The
group appeared under the auspices
of Temple Baptist Church, St.
Paul, of which Dr. William Murk
is pastor, and brought a program
of songs from the deep south.
There are two groups of Jubilee
Singers touring Northwest cities
both of which are singing negro
spirituals and bringing gospel mes-sages
in song. This group together
with Dr. Murk are now touring a
number of Minnesota churches.
The group consisted of five sing-ers
and a pianist who acted as di-rector
of the organization.
