Our soldiers are asking, "What is the difference is I say 'It is me'
instead of 'It is I' when I get into the fox-holes of Africa?" It is true that
the war will not be lost because they use such expressions, but there
are many other places in our armed forces where correct speech and Eng-lish
are a great asset.
Because the army realizes this, they are giving courses in speech and
English to soldiers in training. Of course, short cuts are taken, giving
only that which is absolutely essential, but we must sacrifice finesse for
the prime objectives in mind, namely the winning of the war. This train-ing
is given to the men preparing to be commanding officers in order
that they may communicate their ideas clearly and distinctly. If they
are able to communicate their ideas, they will be much better prepared
to control the behavior of the men under them.
Because these courses are speeded up, we at home need to keep up
the cultural standards we should pass on to the next generation. The
transmitting of the culture standards is a long-time process, and there-fore
we must not let it drop suddenly now. We can build this up by
reading more widely of the various countries, not merely of America. If
we were more democratic in our
reading, by that I mean reading the
literature of other countries, we
should be able to understand their
trends of thought more clearly.
We must develop our culture
now so that those Writing after the
war will have high literary stand-ards
as a guide. Many post-war
writers will be competing with
writers advocating Nazi idealism,
even though Naziism generally has
been suppressed, and we must pre-pare

Rochester Has Romance
-by ETHEL HALE
I took ar long anticipated and thoroughly enjoyed vacation last week.
Carol Rexion and Virginia Holmberg took over the work of the Clarion.
I went up to Rochester to interview the-Director of Nurses and see
when I could enroll at Kahler Hospital.
Several things were outstanding in that world famed city of medi-cine.
One was the friendliness of the people; someone even said "good
morning!" as if she meant it.

This Means You!
"Griping" is stylish. If you are not deaf and dumb, you will
agree with me. Like baby-shawl kerchiefs, it is the latest thing,
and Bethel is no exception.
We criticize this, we criticize that; nothing escapes our "tear-ing
apart," and since we spend most of our time with our teachers,
they receive the greatest part of this "griping." We complain that
they are too strict, too lax, they give too much homework (I could
go on and on). In short they make our classes miserable.
We forget that it takes two or more individuals to make a
class, the teacher and the pupils. We see what is wrong with the
former and completely forget about ourselves. If we stop to think,
of our part in the class, our classroom attitudes, we cannot deny
that our sins are many and black.
What are they? If you do not know, just observe yourself
and those around you throughout the day. In the early morning
we nod and sleep over the lecture notes we are taking `a poor
inspiration for the professor. As the day goes on ,from half-awaks,
drugged-looking creatures, we change to the other extreme and be-come
too active. We take too great a part in the class discussion.
We discourteously talk out of turn, interupt the teachers, carry on
our own private conversations while he is speaking; we waste our
time and his with our foolishness. We even have the audacity to
eat during the lecture. Then too, we cut class as often as we
please. We straggle in late; anytime will do. Having the day's
homework done is a thing unknown. These are but a few outrages
we commit.
I am guilty of them; you are guilty of them and yet we gripe
about the teachers. We who profess to be Christians, loving our
brothers as ourselves, yes, some of us who have been deferred
from the draft because we are preparing for the ministry—we are
the greatest culprits. I ask, how can we reconcile our religion,
our claims to be unworldly, with actions such as these? How can
we "gripe" about others when we have so many things to correct in

Editor's Mail
Dear Editor:
One of the most disgusting
things around the dorin is to hear
the telephone ringing. That part
isn't as bad as when there is some-one
standing right there and will
not answer it.
There is a rule stating that a con-versation
should last only three
minutes!—instead of a half an
hour or more. There are forty odd
others that would like to use the
telephone once in a while too!
Worse, yet, talking on the tele-phone
so loud that everyone in
the whole building can hear what
is said is very disturbing and dis-tracting
to those who would ilke
to study.
I wish we girls could get to-gether,
and work out a schedule
for answering the telephone in-stead
of just certain ones doing
it all the time.
Can't we do something about it?

Dear Editor;
Is it wrong to study in the
evenings? Am I laboring under an
delusion that between 7 and 10:30
every evening we are supposed to
be quiet for that purpose? From
the remarks of my more exuber-ant
collegues when asked to lower
their voices from screams and
shouts, and quit running like wild
horses up and down the halls, I
feel I am.
Perhaps this desire for peace and
quiet is infringing on their rights
to a good time. I believe their lib-erty
ends where mine begins. They
may be able to prepare for the
next day's assignments and tests
without opening a book, but for me
it takes an evening of hard work.

To enter the "dorm" during a

days in Indians and the fur trading
era. Just who is getting gyped is
the question and if you ask me it
looks like the grand old "Bushel-britches"

back and forth like the dimes and
nickels that they are worth.
It seems, too, that several of the
fellows are having a scratching
good time these days. All of this
activity has not been confined to
one person but has spread to four
or so more. Maybe the Good Lord
thought that they didn't have
enough to do and so gave them
something to fill up their time. As
Dallas W. said it, "Oh, well, we
all have to start from scratch any-way."
The Male Chorus needs only a
Second Bass to fill up their quar-tet.
This quartet is made up of
three of the most active "itches"

Pettifoggers Note!
Dear Editor:
This question of griping about
food seems to be causing a good
deal of dissension in the Women's
Dormitory. What is the cause of
it? Bethel, as a whole, seems to
be full of gripers. This hardly
seems to me to be a Christian-like
attitude. When you look at all
sides of it and narrow° it down it
adds up to one thing—selfishness.
Here is what the Bible says about
that. In Isaiah 56:11 we read "Yea,
they are greedy dogs which can
never have enough, and they are
shepherds that cannot understand:
they all look to their own way,
every one for his gain, from his

Bethel Institute is no reason
why we should get any more food
than anyone else. Are we any bet-ter
than the next fellow? Where
is Bethel's patriotism? Is it a sin
to complain about our lot here at
home when our boys are over there
giving their lives for us and en-during
tremendous hardships.
And then the civilians in the
war-torn countries, both allied and
axis, are by no means sitting in
the lap of luxury. We don't realize,
in fact we can't even imagine, the
persecution they are enduring. The
objects of our pretty gripings are
but infinitesimal annoyances next
to the causes they have for com-plaint.
But they don't complain.
Why should we, as Christians, com-plain?
Gremlins Help
In Exams
TOO??? Yes, and they have even
moved into the Chem. Lab. They
can be heard and felt in the lab at
any time that there are students
working in there.
They have it in their silly heads
that they are supposed to help with
every experiment and they do it
too, in a way that is enough to ex-asperate

through a rubber stopper. As those
holes aren't any too big as it is, a
little critter made it twice as hard

Another gremlin was watching the
procedure from Johnny's shoulder,
and just when he was pushing the
hardest, he climbed down and gave
Johnny's elbow such a kick that
the thermometer broke in two. One
half of the thing went into the
stopper and the other half went in-to
Johnny's finger. The whole
thing gave the gremlins a good
laugh; it gave Johnny a lot of pain
and it gave Johnny's dad another
headache to the tune of one dollar.

delicate measurements,

_eosie 94 Blind
"Yes, Mother, Sue is a darlin," was an emphatic statement that a
young man said of his sweetheart as spring came floating in. He went on
to tell of her good points and said that she never did anything that was
wrong. In reality Sue did have faults, but "LOVE IS BLIND".
Often blind love is not appreciated or accepted by the beloved one.
This can be proved by the life of Alfred Tennyson Byron, Jr. For weeks
he had been practicing a speech of proposal. At last he thought that
he had one that would be worthy of his sweetheart. There was a full
moon and a perfect setting for a proposal. "I am mad about you,"
he breathed, "and in my breast burns the immortal flame of undying
love. I worship you with a tremendous overpowering, all-compassing
adoration." All he received were the words "OH, GOODY!"
Because love is blind, some people sacrifice all they have for it.
This is illustrated in the life of a talented girl who sacrificed her edu-cation,
musical ability, frie'nds, and family to marry a backwoodsman.
Living in a shanty and far from real civilization, she soon lost all her
refinement and became as unpolished as her husband. Her talents were
lost to the world because her love was blind. SINCE LOVE IS BLIND
Sometimes love is blind to all qualities, good or bad, and sees only
a pretty face. The lover does not realize that he is superior to her and
that they will never be happy together. He really believes that his
sweetheart's beauty will substitute for everything.
Samuel Johnson is a good example of a "blind"lover. To ordinary
spectators Mrs. Porter, that lady he loved, appeared to be a short, fat,
coarse woman, painted half an inch thick, dressed in gandy colors and
fond of exhibiting provincial airs and graces which were not exactly
those of the Queenberrys and Lepel's. She was much older than Samuel
Johnson. Her daughter by her first marriage was born only six years
after Johnson. But Johnson was passionately in love with her and
thought she was all that was beautiful and good. He married her and
later when she died he was broken-hearted. This was one case where
"blind" love continued through the whole life of the lover. BUT BE-WARE!

Hopes Rise For

Among other needs of our school
are seeing fulfillment, thoughts
and plans are being aroused, to

and much favor was gained.
The project, to be satisfactory, is
quite large, however, and it is dif-ficult
for one group to accomplish
it. Later it was suggested as a
sophomore class project and fur-ther
investigations are being made
as to possibilities of obtaining
enough money and as to the cost
of the project itself. As develop-ments
occur they will be looked
forward to with interest by this de-partment.

Carlo Emilio Gadda
Eclectics & Heteroclites 8
This short novel, originally published in 1931, by the author of two of the classics of 20th-century Italian prose (That Awful Mess on Via Merulana, and Acquainted with Grief), weaves together the lives of Maria Ripamonti, daughter of impoverished aristocrats shivering in a castle, and engineer Baronfo, a dyspeptic salesman stressed out by years of getting on and off trains, who has turned to collecting antiquarian tomes on philosophy. The year is 1922 (when the Fascists seized power in Italy), and Gadda leads the story through a characteristic meander of digressions - a lover lost in the First World War, the Madonna's rescue of a doctor from witches, all the saints named Francis, the Salsomaggiore baths, screaming mistresses and gramophones, Schubert string trios, a certain Mr. Digbens of Chelmsford and his philosophical correspondents - so as to arrive at a series of beautifully crafted coincidences which bring a twist of humour to the melodramatic denouement. This whole narrative is recounted in a language whose virtuosity, swooping from baroque lyricism to authentic dialect or even bad French, puts Gadda in a league with James Joyce or Raymond Queneau. Gadda (1893-1973) was the master portraitist of Italy's transition from the land of a hundred dialects to its modern linguistic monoculture.

Economic Welfare, International Business and Global Institutional Change
Ram Mudambi, Pietro Navarra, Giuseppe Sobbrio
Edward Elgar, 2003 - Business & Economics - 382 pages
'The book ...throws lights on the relationship between various institutions, in particular between the market and the state. It is strongly argued that the establishment of law and order, and an effective guarantee of property rights, must precede the introduction of the price system; if done in reverse order, failure and injustice result. Without a doubt, readers, whatever their own particular standpoint, will be able to derive considerable benefit from this collection.' - From the preface by Bruno Frey, University of Zurich, Switzerland and Netherlands Institute for Advanced Studies Global economic progress in the twentieth century, while generally encouraging, was neither continuous nor uniform. With the exception of some Asian nations, countries that were more developed at the beginning of the twentieth century still rank amongst the wealthiest nations, while countries that were poorer, still lag behind. The distinguished authors in this volume address the fundamental causes for such heterogeneous international experiences, placing particular emphasis on the role of institutions. They demonstrate how the study of economic development is increasingly linked to the development of institutions, which allow for more complex exchanges to occur in markets and societies. Institutions can be understood as rules or constraints that channel individuals' actions in specific directions, and can be formal or informal depending on their genesis. The book highlights the connection between institutions and economic welfare by examining countries at different stages of development. Although the authors' study material effects, they also look at individual well-being which is more strongly influenced by the non-material products of institutions such as opportunity, freedom and relationships. They move on to highlight the role of institutions in global business, in terms of innovation, entrepreneurship and foreign direct investment. In the concluding chapters they focus on the actual process of transition from one institutional framework to another. Amongst other examples, they examine reforms to international financial institutions and constitutional adjustments in transition countries. This varied yet highly topical book will be invaluable to institutional and public-choice economists, students and researchers of the theory and policy of international business, and social and political scientists interested in the role and evolution of institutions.

SBA's 8(a) Certification Program Explained
SBA's 8(a) Certification Program Explained
Did you know that the SBA has a program designed to help small, disadvantaged businesses compete in the federal marketplace? If you're interested in government contracting, the 8(a) Business Development (BD) Program offers a broad scope of assistance to small businesses for which you might be eligible.
The 8(a) BD Program has been essential for helping socially and economically disadvantaged entrepreneurs gain access to the economic mainstream of American society. Ultimately, the program helps thousands of aspiring entrepreneurs to gain a foothold in government contracting.
Am I eligible?
Generally, to be approved into the 8(a) BD program and become certified, your small business must be owned and controlled at least 51% by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals who are American citizens.
You should also be able to demonstrate potential for business success and possess good character. You can read more details about eligibility requirements by visiting this page on our site.
What are the benefits?
So, how can the program help you? Once certified, you can take advantage of specialized business training, counseling, marketing assistance and high-level executive development provided by the SBA and our resource partners. You may also be eligible for assistance in obtaining access to surplus government property and supplies, SBA-guaranteed loans, and bonding assistance for being involved in the program. You can receive sole-source contracts (up to a ceiling of $4 million for goods and services and $6.5 million for manufacturing). While SBA helps 8(a) firms build their competitive and institutional know-how, the agency also encourages you to participate in competitive acquisitions.
8(a) businesses can also receive sole-source contracts (up to a ceiling of $4 million for goods and services and $6.5 million for manufacturing). While SBA helps 8(a) firms build their competitive and institutional know-how, the agency also encourages you to participate in competitive acquisitions.
In addition, 8(a) businesses can form joint ventures and teams to bid on contracts. This enhances your ability to successfully compete for and perform larger prime contracts. You can also participate in the 8(a) BD Mentor-Protégé Program which allows companies to learn the ropes from other more experienced businesses.
What else should I know?
Participation in the 8(a) BD Program is divided into two phases over nine years: a four-year developmental stage and a five-year transition stage; the overall goal of which is to graduate 8(a) businesses that will go on to thrive in a competitive business environment.
While participating in the program, you'll have to maintain a balance between your commercial and government business. There's also a $100 million (or five times the value of your primary NAICS code) limit on the total dollar value of sole-source contracts that you can receive while in the program.
To make sure you stay on track to accomplish goals and follow requirements, the SBA district offices monitor and measure the progress of participants through annual reviews, business planning and systematic evaluations.

Walt Disney Co.Chairman and Chief Executive Robert Iger said he likes what he sees from Netflix, but added that he thinks it will be hard for the streaming video service to "corner the market."
"No question Netflix has a running start," said Iger, speaking at Goldman Sachs' Communacopia Conference in New York on Tuesday. "I don't think the game is over though. The technology has created the most dynamic media space that we've ever seen."
Burbank-based Disney, the world's largest entertainment company, and Los Gatos, Calif.-based Netflix inked a licensing deal late last year.
PHOTOS: Upcoming Disney fall films and beyond
Iger praised the company, noting that Netflix has paid strong prices for Disney's intellectual property, but said that his company would continue to look at other platforms in the video-on-demand space.
"While I think it would be appropriate to declare Netflix victorious in some form, I don't think it would be right to say they are going to be the only game in town and that they are going to be the only game in town forever. There are already new entrants in the marketplace."
Iger also used his appearance to discuss Disney's theme parks, which as a business segment posted operating income of $689 million during the company's fiscal third quarter. Iger set the bar high for the company's forthcoming project in Shanghai.
SNEAKS: Movie trailers, full coverage
"I'm not sure there is anything else we've got going at the company that I am as excited about in terms of its growth prospects and how it can change the Walt Disney Co.," Iger said.
Shanghai Disney Resort, which is under construction, is slated to include two hotels, 495,000 square feet of retail space, a dining and entertainment venue, a lake and other facilities and amenities. It is expected to open at the end of 2015.
Iger also said that Disney's MyMagic+ system would roll out "fully" in the coming months at the company's Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando. Among other features, the digital service allows visitors to book time on rides before they enter the amusement park. MyMagic+ has been in a testing phase for several months.
Said Iger: "This is a big step for us. It's a big investment."
Shares of Disney were down 0.66% on Tuesday to $64.32.

Just before sundown, the portly reporter walks north on Wonderland Trail. He looks west for movement in the gullies and brush; seeing nothing he keeps moving.
Just before the southern leg of Old Kiln Trail he stops again and listens.
"Over here Scribe," says the large, female coyote.
"Hey Dog,"
"Good to see you," she says as she walks with him, "What's up?"
"I'm working a coyote attacks story."
"Great, see ya," she says loping away.
"No wait, I just want the coyote side of the story."
They walk on a bit further in silence. Then coyote turns and nips the side of the reporter's jacket, who stops to look at his friend.
"Nobody would believe that you interviewed a coyote," she says.
"Sure they would Dog, it's Boulder -- folks believe just about anything around here."
"Yeah Scribe, you're right. Yesterday this guy was walking my trail with a huge smile on his face mumbling something. Must have finally seen his deity's navel."
"So let's start there," says the reporter, "You said 'my trail' like you own this trail."
"I do," says the coyote, "my family has owned this trail for hundreds of years."
"How would anyone know that?"
"If you see scat on the trail, it's owned by a coyote."
"So if you own this trail, does that mean you are willing to attack people to get them off your trail?"
"Whoa Scribe, too many assumptions."
The reporter and the coyote move off the trail and sit down on some rocks.
"So if some scofflaw on a $5,000 bike blasted down your trail, heedless of anyone else, wouldn't you be tempted to nip him?" asks the coyote.
"Dog, I ride a bike, it's dangerous on the roads."
"I know that. But these are multi-use trails we're talking about -- they don't belong to just spandex boys with shaved legs."
"Okay, there are some jerks on bikes, however, one victim was a commuter, probably going at a moderate speed," notes the reporter.
"Yeah," the coyote says, "but you used the word jerk. Do you suppose that out of the 100 or so coyotes in East Boulder there isn't a jerk or two?"
"So you are saying that these attacks are by a bad coyote?"
"Could be," says the coyote, "But these aren't attacks."
"What do you mean Dog, the coyotes were trying to bite people."
"No, it's hazing," says the coyote, "the coyote jerk probably just wanted the cyclist to slow down by nipping at him. It wasn't an attack. A coyote attack would be to bite the achilles or calf."
"Okay, I get the territoriality theory and the occasional jerk coyote idea makes sense to me. But what about the attacks on people with dogs?" asks the reporter.
"Remember, these aren't attacks, they're hazing. Not many people are conscious enough of the world around them to talk to coyotes. But dogs and coyotes talk all the time."
"No way."
"Yeah, " says the coyote, "and imagine some smart-assed mutt talking trash to the local coyote because he knows the coyote won't respond with a human around."
"That's a little far fetched," says the reporter.
"Some of the dogs on Wonderland Trail talk trash to us."
"But you don't go down and 'haze' them do you?" asks the reporter.
"Nope, you'll find a little higher class coyote here on the west side of town."
"So what do you do?"
"We can smell where they live. A little judicious howling in their neighborhood at 2 a.m. usually does the trick."
"Okay, so I sort of buy your claim about hazing. Speaking of which, what do you think of the hazing by the rangers in East Boulder?"
"It's just nuts," says the coyote. "It's just a waste of time. We know it and so do the rangers. Besides, we think of most of the rangers as friends. Some even talk to us when they are out on patrol, particularly when they think no one is watching."
The reporter stretches and looks at the coyote, "Thanks," he says, "I've got to get back to work."
"So are you going to tell the city editor that you just interviewed a coyote?
"Ah, no, that wouldn't exactly fly, but I'll figure a way to get your thoughts out."
"Good, you do that," She lopes a couple steps away, turns and says, "And while you are at it Scribe, please tell whoever left the burritos out east that we love burritos up here on the Wonderland Trail."

Ole Miss Athletics Week in Review
Feb. 24-March 2, 2015
Track & Field
- Ole Miss got SEC titles from Jalen Miller (60m), Daniel Bulmer (mile) and the distance medley relay, and the Rebels achieved their best SEC indoor finish since 1984.
- The Ole Miss men scored 62 points to finish fourth in the team standings, their third-best result in school history and best since tying for third 31 years ago. The team's 62 points were also their most at an SEC indoor meet since that year.
- Overall on the weekend, Ole Miss snagged three SEC titles, two runners-up and two school records. The only other time the Rebels won three titles at the SEC indoor meet was 1983.
- The Rebels' success was notable because 20 of the team's 44 participants were competing in their first SEC Championships, and the men were without injured distance standouts Sean Tobin and Robert Domanic.
- Miller has won every 60-meter race in which he's lined up this year, and captured the school's first ever SEC crown in the event with a time of 6.56 on Saturday.
- Bulmer and Craig Engels finished 1-2 in the men's mile at 4:03.28 and 4:03.76, respectively. Bulmer is the first SEC mile champion in Ole Miss history.

- Ole Miss' win over Kentucky gave the Rebels two wins over a ranked opponent this season and gave Ole Miss head coach Matt Insell his first win over his former team. The last time Ole Miss defeated two ranked foes was in 2009-10 when they had wins over No. 8 Georgia and No. 12 LSU. Additionally, the win over a top 15 foe was the first in the last 20 tries.

- Errol Robinson's diving catch and flip for a double play was No. 2 on Sportscenter's Top 10 Plays Friday night, Feb. 27.
- Due to inclement weather on Saturday, Ole Miss and UCF played in a doubleheader on Sunday. It marked the third straight weekend the Rebels played a doubleheader, and for the third time, Ole Miss split the two games. The Rebels fell, 3-2, in a shortened 7-inning game one before claiming the series finale, 4-3.
- The Sunday victory gave UCF its first loss of the season. Florida natives Tate Blackman, Colby Bortles and Sikes Orvis recorded all four RBI in the win.

Men's Tennis

Report in Brief >> U.S. ocean research depends on a broad range of ocean infrastructure assets—the national inventory of ships and other platforms, sensors and samplers, computational and data systems, supporting facilities, and trained personnel. In order to ensure that essential infrastructure is available for both fundamental research and issues of social importance in 2030, a coordinated national plan for making future strategic investment...

Future Needs in Deep Submergence Science: Occupied and Unoccupied Vehicles in Basic Ocean Research (2004)
Deep-diving manned submersibles, such as Alvin, which gained worldwide fame when researchers used it to reach the wreck of Titanic, have helped advance scientific understanding of the deep ocean. Many scholars in this field, however, have noted that the number and capabilities of today's underwater vehicles no longer meet current and expected scientific demand. At the same time, the relative value of manned and unmanned vehicles is ofte... More >>
Exploration of the Seas: Interim Report (2003)
Seventy percent of our blue planet is covered by oceans. Progress has been made in understanding the role of oceans in climate change, locating energy reserves, revealing new life forms, and describing the flow of carbon through these systems. However, it may be time to catapult our understanding to new levels by undertaking an interdisciplinary, international, global ocean exploration program. This interim report outlines the committee's visio... More >>
Exploration of the Seas: Voyage into the Unknown (2003)
Each year, exiting, ocean-related discoveries are made; however, more research funding is available to scientists that revisit sites as opposed to individuals that want to explore poorly understood regions. A new program, where opportunities exist to investigate unexplored areas of the ocean, is needed to facilitate rapid discovery and implementation of previously unknown information. This report argues that a new large-scale, multidisciplinar... More >>Report in Brief
Chemical Reference Materials: Setting the Standards for Ocean Science (2002)
The accuracy of chemical oceanographic measurements depends on calibration against reference materials to ensure comparability over time and among laboratories.

SNL: Garth and Kat Return!
The return of Kristen Wiig to the SNL stage meant the resurrection of several great characters, including the Target Lady, her role on The Californians and, of course, Kat of "Garth and Kat" fame. The world's worst musical duo made an appearance on Weekend Update and it was as funny as it has ever been.
For those unfamiliar with Garth and Kat, the joke is that they're a musical act who fail to prepare at every turn, meaning that their improvised-on-the-spot songs are stunningly, amazingly awful. As Garth, Fred Armisen improvises lyrics and song titles and as Kat, Kristen Wiig tries to keep up and play along. Across the desk, it's Weekend Update host Seth Meyers' job to react and try to keep a straight face (something that Armisen and Wiig have a hard time doing themselves). This time around, the duo are on hand to promote a Mother's Day themed album and the results are typically (and hilariously) disastrous.
With Kristen Wiig gone, we wish that SNL would create more characters like this. Although the writing on the show is generally pretty sharp, there is nothing quite like watching two talented comedians just riff with each other. After all, the biggest laughs on SNL generally come when something is so funny and unexpected that one of the cast members breaks character.

I thought this was a great article and very relevant to me as a military wife. I wasn't surprised by the typical arrogant comments from theists. I was, however, surprised by the atheist comments saying that the idea was ridiculous. Perhaps the reason is they are not in the military. The job of a Chaplain is to give comfort to service members and their families. Just because we are atheists doesn't mean we have hearts made of stone and do not need comfort and advice. I also think atheists especially need comfort and advice from a fellow secularist, so they do not hear the BS euphanisms made by religious folk like, 'it's gods will' or 'they are in a better place'.
I was curious as to other positions, from military and non-military atheists.

This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2012, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
Park City - Ski jumper Sarah Hendrickson may well be the face of her sport, after winning the inaugural World Cup championship last season and establishing herself as a gold-medal favorite at the 2014 Sochi Olympics in Russia.
But she isn't quite sure about this year, yet.
Not even a week after graduating from high school at the Winter Sports School, the high-flying 18-year-old from Park City opens the new World Cup season on Friday in Lillehammer, Norway, uncertain about her prospects after knee surgery last spring. Turns out, Hendrickson claimed her astonishing nine victories in 13 competitions last year while coping with cartilage damage that had been diagnosed before the season.
"I'd love to be on the podium again," she said. "But I just have to show up and I have to remember that I'm still technically recovering from this injury. … So I'm kind of in the dark about that. I just have to go out and jump for me. There's going to be a lot of pressure there, but I just have to remember why I love this sport so much and do what I do."
Hendrickson will be joined on the World Cup circuit by fellow Park City natives Lindsey Van - the former world champion - and Jessica Jerome, comprising a group that coach Alan Alborn said was "looking stronger than ever as a group" in the gym over the summer.
But both Hendrickson and Van are returning from offseason surgeries, so questions are sure to abound unless and until the jumpers look like their old selves again.
"It's kind of hard to set certain goals," Hendrickson said. "A lot of people expect me to repeat what I did last year, but I was jumping on a high level for myself ... so it's definitely going to be not an easy feat doing that."
Especially after having microfracture surgery in April.
That's a procedure that involves drilling tiny holes in the bone of the knee to stimulate the growth of new cartilage, and its recovery typically takes about six months. Hendrickson put off the surgery last year, because she did not want to disrupt what turned out to be a championship season.
So, according to the calendar, Hendrickson should be just about healed. And she feels pretty good.
But is she 100 percent?
"I think so," she said. "I don't really know. Obviously, I'm confident and I want to be confident. But I need to know that it's not going to be an easy season."
Hendrickson said she's trying not to worry much about results, especially early in the season. Many of the other jumpers have been training all summer and fall, while she was stuck in the gym rehabbing and did not start jumping again until September.
Her top rivals figure to include Austria's Daniela Iraschko, the first woman to jump over 200 meters who nevertheless finished a distant second in the World Cup standings last season, and 16-year-old Sara Takanashi of Japan, who was third.
Van could pose a serious threat, too, having won the 2009 world title while spearheading the battle to get women's ski jumping into the Olympics.
The world championships are a focus for Hendrickson this year - they're scheduled Feb. 20 to March 3 in Val di Fiemme, Italy - mostly because she has never performed well at them. She was 29th as a 14-year-old when Van won in the Czech Republic, and just 19th two years ago in Norway, when her mother and grandmother traveled to watch her compete.
"When it comes down to it, though," she said, "I just have to focus on my jumping and hopefully the results will come."

Twitter Files: Marlon Wayans And Throwback Rapper Lord Jamar Catch Social Media Fade Over Skirt-Rockin' Omar Epps!
Brand Nubian rapper-turned-hip-hop-homophobe, Lord Jamar, has a been ranting and raving for more than a year now about the feminization of the black man ever since Kanye West rocked his now infamous "kilt" (see, skirt) on stage with Jay Z during their Watch The Throne tour.
Today, Jamar was devastated to see that one of his favorite black actors, Omar Epps, had rocked the feminine fashion trend on live nation television while visiting the ladies of 'The View'.
Guess Marlon caught wind of Jamar's displeasure with Omar's attire and decided to don his silkiest cape to clap back at his BFF's detractor.
After this point, 140-character Hell breaks loose and the results are chronicled on the following pages.
Continue Slideshow
This isn't anywhere CLOSE to the end of the bickering, if you want to see the entire convo we suggest you stalk Marlon and Jamar's timeline. At this rate they should land in Twitter jail any minute now.
What do you think about Jamar's argument against black male feminization? Was he out of pocket by trying to call Omar Epps out?

The optimist might say that on the last show for selling Wrestlemania, rising stars like Zack Ryder and Drew McIntyre are given the chance to carry the flag. A realist probably admits that the big stars get the night off to avoid any last-minute injuries before the big show. That being said, Chris Jericho gets a warm-up before his quest to prove he is the best in the world.
Even Booker T and Michael Cole get the night off, as Smackdown is brought to you by Josh Matthews and Matt Striker (great to have him back for one night, at least).
Match #1 – Zack Ryder vs. Drew McIntyre
McIntyre dances into the ring all smiles tonight, and backs up his happy mood by grounding Ryder with back-and-forth combinations of suplexes and submission holds. Ryder responds with a Broski Boot and Rough Ryder, reversing momentum in a heartbeat for the win.
Winner via pinfall: Zack Ryder
Ah, there's Michael Cole. He's with Jerry Lawler at Fan Axxess, and they're all buddy-buddy as they talk about Sunday's upcoming matches. What a difference a year makes for these two.
They point out The Undertaker's display area at the show, with headstones for his previous 19 matches – including last year's with Triple H. There's still no mention of their first Wrestlemania encounter.
Madonna is contributing an official theme song to Wrestlemania. Her career is now complete.
Speaking of complete careers, Edge is also at Axxess signing autographs, sporting a new, short haircut, perhaps in honour of The Undertaker.
Back in the ring, Big Show has a chance to express gratitude for his career, reminding us that he is seeking his first Wrestlemania moment on Sunday. He vows to be the new Intercontinental Champion.
Match #2 – Chris Jericho vs. Kofi Kingston
Continuing their program from the most recent house show tour, Jericho takes the early damage from Kingston until he turns the tide by knocking Kingston off the ropes mid-springboard. The fight goes to the floor as Jericho roughs Kingston up against the announcer's table and security barrier.
Kingston bides his time until he can start working Jericho down with chops and a Boom Drop, but finds his Trouble in Paradise blocked and turned towards a Walls of Jericho –- but Kingston wriggles out of that too and lands a cross-body off the top rope for a two-count.
Jericho fells Kingston with an elbow and tries a Lionsault, only to introduce his midsection to Kingston's knees. A Second Trouble in Paradise again results in a Walls of Jericho –- this time cinched in.
Winner via submission: Chris Jericho
And so the wrestlers are all tucked in their beds, while visions of Funkasauruses danced in their heads. Or maybe Flash Funk. Not Terry Funk, though.
Merry Wrestlemania to all.
Dave Hillhouse is a screenwriter and teacher.

Maryland's record-setting Mega Millions jackpot winner is actually three winners, the Maryland lottery announced during a press conference Tuesday morning
All three plan to remain anonymous, but they permitted the lottery to release a few details. The winners, a woman in her 20s, a man in his 40s and a woman in her 50s, work together for Maryland public schools.
They'll walk away with a cool $34.997 million each in a lump sum.
All three have been working multiple jobs. "If it can't be you, these are precisely the kind of people you would want to win," said a rep for the Maryland lottery.
One has been working at two full-time jobs, another has a part time job, and the third has two other part-time jobs.
These were in addition to their roles as an elementary school teacher, a special education teacher and an administrative assistant. Although they work for Maryland public schools, they work at different locations.
The trio each contributed $20, purchasing 60 tickets total at three different locations, including the 7-11 in Baltimore that sold them the winning ticket.
However, on the night of the drawing Friday, March 31, two of them had to convince the third it wasn't an early April Fool's Day joke.
Around midnight, two of them called and woke their friend, saying they were coming over. They arrived to convince her they'd really won, and then made a copy for each of them and placed the original in a safe.
Around 3 a.m. that night, one winner contacted a Baltimore-area financial adviser. The adviser made initial contact with the lottery a week later, on the morning of Friday, April 6.
The lottery official said the winners are "very cheerful, but a bit overwhelmed by the enormity of the situation."
In their immediate future, one plans to backpack through Europe, another plans to finance his daughter's education, and third will travel to Italy. All three plan to invest and buy homes.
However, they all will return to work this week, citing "a strong commitment to their students," the lottery official said.
As for the McDonald's employee who claimed to have the winning ticket, that doesn't seem to be the case.
Mirlande Wilson, Haitian immigrant and 37-year-old mother of seven, had said she had the winning ticket. Wilson, who was reportedly responsible for a Baltimore-area McDonald's employee pool of Mega Millions tickets, had said she had the winning ticket -- which wasn't part of that pool.
Last week, she appeared at a news conference in her lawyer's office during which she did not speak, but her lawyer asked the press to leave her alone and said Wilson needed medical treatment for high blood pressure the week after the drawing.
The next day News4's Shomari Stone asked her if she was going to claim her "winning" ticket. She replied, "If I find it... I misplaced it." She said she hid the ticket in the McDonald's where she works.
And the winners were definitely aware of that situation.
"They had been certainly been watching the news and saw that was more than they wanted to go through," a lottery official said.
The winning ticket was sold about 7:15 p.m. on March 30 -- less than four hours before the drawing -- at the 7-Eleven on Liberty Avenue in Baltimore. It was a Quick Pick ticket and was the only one purchased at that time.
The three Maryland winners hadn't checked any of their 59 other tickets when they visited the Lottery office Monday, and officials there offered to check them.
Out of the other 59, they won a grand total of $1.
There were also, as you've probably heard, two other winning tickets for the record $656 million jackpot. Those tickets were sold in Illinois and Kansas. The Illinois winner has not yet come forward.

I've finally realized that it makes more sense for me to post more of my Padres stuff at Friar Forecast and less here, for a couple of reasons. One, it is easier for readers to follow if there are less blogs with more writers. Consolidation. You don't have to go to multiple blogs searching for analysis. And, on a similar note, it should help the readership of Friar Forecast, with more frequent posts in one place, rather than split readers between the two sites. Finally, there is certainly more of an established community over there, and it is fun to interact with that readership (not to mention Daniel, Ben, and Mike).
It makes a lot of sense, but it took a few months to get through my thick head (and stubbornness). So, yeah, I'm going to be doing most of my writing over there now, and I'm excited to rejoin those guys again. I love the job Daniel and company have done since I (sort of) left. It is in more capable hands now, but I'm glad I can still contribute.
As for this place, I'm going to keep it around for more random Padres stuff, and maybe some personal notes here and there. No point in shutting it down, as I've apparently shown a propensity for changing my mind in the past : ) Anyway, sorry for any inconvenience, and thanks for following me all around the internet.

Grassroots Leaders: Empowering Communities is Resilience Building
Participants at the first Community Practitioners Academy meeting, which was held ahead of the Fourth Global Platform for Disaster Reduction in Generva. - Photos: Margaret Arnold/World Bank
Communities are organized and want to be recognized as partners with expertise and experience in building resilience rather than as clients and beneficiaries of projects. This was the common theme that emerged from the key messages delivered by grassroots leaders at the Fourth Global Platform for Disaster Reduction taking place in Geneva this week, organized by the UN International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (UNISDR). The Global Platform is a biennial forum for information exchange and partnership building across sectors to reduce disaster risk.
Ahead of the Global Platform, 45 community practitioners from 17 countries - Bangladesh, Chile, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, India, Indonesia, Japan, Kenya, Nicaragua, Peru, Philippines, Samoa, Uganda, Venezuela, and the United States - met for a day and a half to share their practices and experiences in responding to disasters and building long-term resilience to climate change, and to strategize their engagement in around the Global Platform. I had the privilege to participate in this first Community Practitioners Academy, which was convened by GROOTS International, Huairou Commission, UNISDR, the World Bank, Global Facility for Disaster Risk and Reduction (GFDRR), Act Alliance, Action Aid, Japan NGO Center for International Cooperation (JANIC), Cordaid, and Oxfam, and was planned in partnership with the community practitioners from their respective networks.

"The Federal Reserve's action today is a scathing indictment of this Administration's economic policies which, after almost four years, have failed to produce a sustainable recovery or put Americans back to work. The Federal Reserve cannot rescue the Administration from the consequences of failed economic and regulatory policies.
"The President promised us his policies would strengthen the economy and create jobs. Yet after the stimulus plan, after the health care law and after the thousands of new regulations piled on top of our economy, America remains stuck in the worst jobs crisis since the Great Depression. We have racked up more debt during the 3½ years this administration has existed than during the previous 200 years. New business creation is at its lowest point in a generation, almost 7 million more Americans have fallen into poverty, and more Americans than ever before are on food stamps.
"Chairman Bernanke has repeatedly -- and rightfully -- warned Congress and the Administration that without action, growing deficits and debt will erode our prosperity and leave the next generation of Americans with less opportunity. To avoid this fate, we must tackle the necessary long-term reform of the spending programs that drive our debt. House Republicans stand ready to work in a bipartisan fashion with the Administration on fundamental spending reform."
