"You can take the door off if you like, you'll get better photographs." Before I've even nodded my consent, pilot Jean de Dieu already has the door of the bright blue chopper in his hands. "Let's hope it doesn't rain," I venture feebly as I assess the seat-belt situation.
I'm on the tarmac at Kigali airport in Rwanda, about to get a lift to the Volcanoes National Park, home to the endangered mountain gorillas, in a Robinson R44 helicopter. "We get a lot of tourists who want us to drop them off there," says de Dieu, as though he is running a taxi service.
That Rwanda attracts the kind of tourist who prefers to charter a helicopter than make the long journey by road is testimony to the remarkable transformation the country has undergone since the 1994 genocide destroyed its infrastructure and its reputation. This is just the kind of tourist President Paul Kagame was hoping to attract when he began promoting travel to the region in 2003. By focusing on high-value, low environmental-impact tourism, Rwanda has attracted considerable foreign investment over the past few years, with a host of new openings aimed at the discerning tourist.
The trend began in 2007, when Kenyan hotel group Serena, part of the Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development, took over the management of two properties and turned one into a five-star hotel in the capital Kigali and the other into a four-star property on the lakeside resort of Gisenyi. Then, in 2008, Governors' Camp opened Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge, right at the foot of the Virunga volcano chain and very close to the entrance of the Volcanoes National Park, prompting Virunga, the area's original lodge, to undertake an extensive refurbishment. Last year a new lakeside lodge opened in Kibuye and a five-star property began to draw tourists to Nyungwe Forest, one of the largest remaining cloud forests in Africa. Visitors already seem to be taking note: revenue from international tourism rose 14 per cent last year.
We float up over the capital like an unleashed balloon, and the terracotta roofs of the neat hillside houses remind me of Tuscany, although they soon give way to the silver glint of tin. Rwanda is known as the land of 1,000 hills and from the air that seems an underestimate. The entire country is ruffled and pocked into slopes of varying gradient, every inch of which is tightly terraced. Soon, the dormant volcanoes of the Virunga mountain chain come into view and below us are lakes so still they look like pools of clouds. As we fly towards the three peaks of Sabyinyo volcano—one in Rwanda, one in Uganda and the third in Democratic Republic of Congo—the sienna slates of Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge emerge from the foliage of the foothills. We inch towards a shaved patch of grass, while a crowd of children huddle together to clap our descent.
Owned by a community co-operative and managed by Governors' Camp, the lodge comprises individual cottages, each with a butler who comes to wake you in the morning with a fresh pot of coffee, gets the fire going and takes away your muddy boots to clean them when you come in. It's the kind of place in which I could happily spend a week, slumped in a sofa with a couple of good books. But it would be foolish to come all this way and not see the mountain gorillas, which are Rwanda's star attraction.
There are just 64 permits issued each day by the Rwanda Development Board, and groups are never larger than eight people. When I arrive for my briefing in the town of Musanze, I am assigned a family of 29 gorillas called Susa, and I'm joined by three young couples. The authorities must have thought we looked fit, because Susa are hiding out high up in the forest, and it is a strenuous two-hour trek through an eerily serene bamboo forest and up into a tangle of Hagenia abyssinica trees. However, the first sight of a fluffy black head emerging above the vegetation is an immediate distraction from the pain in my calves. We are able to creep incredibly close to these magnificent beasts without them so much as flinching; indeed, a large male silverback strolls right past while my attention is diverted elsewhere, giving my leg a punch in the process. Along with two silverbacks are some females, including one who is seven months pregnant, and a couple of boisterous youths. I spend an hour watching them and attempting to take a decent photograph, before descending to Virunga Lodge for a restorative massage and a lazy afternoon in a hammock.
Next stop is the lively lakeside town of Gisenyi on the border of Democratic Republic of Congo. The Serena hotel in Lake Kivu has become a favored spot for weekenders from Kigali, with a private beach glinting with mother-of-pearl; big comfortable sun loungers, and a range of water sports. However, I've been tipped off that there is newer lakeside luxury on the shores of Kibuye, further south, and so I negotiate with the people who run Serena's motorboat and get them to take me the two-hour journey by water (saving me a four-hour road trip). As we jet past the huge palm fronds and banana plants of small forested islands, I lean back, let the sun beat on my face and feel as if I've been transported to the Caribbean.
Rounding a corner, a collection of stilted bamboo cottages come into view, jutting out of the steep banks of the lakeshore. "That's Cormoron lodge," the driver tells me. "It opened last October, and is owned by a Belgian woman who used to be a racing driver." I get them to pull up at the little jetty and climb up along mint-lined paths to the reception. Rwanda was a Belgian colony from the 1920s until independence in 1962, and owner Nathalie Cox has spent most of her life here. Deciding to stay the night, I get my own wooden cabin, which is spacious and comfortable and has a balcony from which I can see the red glow of Democratic Republic of Congo's live Nyiragongo volcano. In the morning, the lake looks so inviting I can't resist taking a dive off the jetty and then borrow a kayak to spend a couple of hours paddling around the islets off the coast, and shouting the occasional amakuru, or good morning, to fishermen in their wooden dugout canoes.
Finally it's time to hit the road and my driver turns up in a classic Toyota Land Cruiser to take me to Nyungwe Forest—an area of nearly 1,000 sq km teeming with wildlife, including colobus monkeys and chimpanzees. There may be potholes and endless twisting bends along the dirt road, but it is a stunning drive with the road snaking around the cliffs and the lake providing a dramatic backdrop. With the window down, the smell of eucalyptus wafts in, and the cries of local children who rush to the roadside to call "Muzungo, muzungo" (the regional term for tourist, from the Swahili word to wander aimlessly) and occasionally ask for pens or francs, but more often just wave and smile.
Acres of tea plantations herald our arrival at Nyungwe Forest Lodge, which was built with a substantial investment from Dubai World Africa (a subsidiary of the Dubai's state investment company). "That's the helipad," says my driver signaling a clearing up ahead. It seems that every lodge worth its salt has one. And then the building appears, an imposing structure of dark wood and stone walls. Staff are awaiting our arrival with cold towels and juice and we are escorted into a spacious lounge with stylish modern furniture, arty coffee-table books and a blazing log fire—the sort of place you might find in South Africa. I am then taken to my private chalet, one of many scattered widely among the tea plantations, with a private deck overlooking the forest beyond. The rooms are huge with kingly bathrooms and I can well believe that each one cost the rumored $1m to build and furnish.
The lodge isn't the only new opening in the forest: there is also a canopy walk, the first of its kind in the region, and I am keen to get there before it closes for the day.
It's a leisurely 20-minute stroll into the forest from the Uwinka Visitor Centre to the start of the walk. My guide points out epiphytic orchids, high on the trunk of a mahogany tree, and the blood-red leaves of the "welcome" tree. "When they fall, they create a red carpet," he explains.
The canopy walk itself doesn't look too daunting from the ground. It is 90m long at its main section and 50m off the ground. I begin with cocky confidence, but as I get halfway across the main section, the vertigo kicks in. Below me, clouds are wisping up through the trees like smoke and from this height the canopy below resembles hundreds of heads of broccoli. I hold on tightly to the metal wire at chest height and try to look out at the horizon, rather than down. After all, if I can fly in a helicopter with no doors, this should be easy.

Developers Hit the Auction Block
If your company has ever recruited a developer, chances are the experience was taxing. This group is in such high demand that it not only leaves the rest of us questioning our career choices, but also makes the job search process for developers a highly polluted one.
This group is what Developer Auction Co-Founder Matt Mickiewicz (and also the founder of Flippa) terms "The 5 percent that are never unemployed".
Mickiewicz's site, launched April 2012, brings together developers and companies in an auction format. Developers are exposed to new job opportunities from pre-qualified employers/bidders at 500-plus start-ups. In turn, employers are able to recruit top engineering talent.
"Engineers in San Francisco get an average of a recruitment pitch every 31 hours...the noise is so high that the good opportunities get thrown out with the bad," said Mickiewicz. "We're allowing start-ups to get in front of top engineering talent from the likes of Google, Facebook, Twitter, MIT and Stanford — engineers who otherwise would have never read or responded to a "cold" recruitment pitch sent via email or LinkedIn."
Since Developer Auction's August debut, two auctions have concluded. According to the company, in its first auction, which ended Aug. 31, 88 engineers put themselves up for auction and 142 start-ups, including Quora and Dropbox, submitted more than $30 million in job offers.
Developer Auction does monitor the talent pool. In the second auction, which ended Oct. 18, 3,600 developers applied and only 154 were approved. Additionally, there were 749 offers made to 150 developers, with almost $80 million in offers.
Important to note, is that there are no obligations from the developers to accept the highest offer (or any offer at all) and offers made by companies are non-binding, as developers can decide to interview based on offers.
The benefits of this service are multi-pronged.
"We're flipping the funnel...rather than writing 20 cover letters, and filling out 20 application forms, we're saving developers time by having companies who are interested in their skills, at their location, at that particular point in time, come to them with indicative offers," said Mickiewicz . "Engineers no longer have to agree to an in-person interview (or three) before finding out how much they are going to get paid. We're cutting recruitment agencies and headhunters out of the equation and putting the developers in touch with the CEOs, Founders and CTOs at VC funded companies."
Additionally, the company notes that employers save 30-50 percent compared to traditional recruiters and developers save time by only interviewing with companies who can afford them.

Open-Face Prosciutto, Fresh Ricotta, and Red-Onion Marmalade Sandwiches Recipe
Your source for quick recipe every single week day.
What do you do with an excess of fresh ricotta? I had picked it up for some random recipe, but had kind of forgotten about the package before running into it in the fridge. Pancakes are always an option, but I was thinking about something a little more savory. I didn't want a pasta, and after searching for a while I ended up with this Epicurious recipe.
Who knew ricotta worked so well on a sandwich? Think of it as the slightly creamy and tangy condiment. Of course, I can't discount the special role that the red onion marmalade plays here. It picks up some extra sweetness from brown sugar and the balsamic vinegar, which helps to balance the salty bite of the prosciutto. You can chow down on these as a simple appetizer, or double them up for a nice light meal.
- Yield:2
- Rated:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups red onions, thinly sliced
- 1/2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 1/2-inch thick slices of crusty bread
- 4 thin slices prosciutto
- 1/2 cup fresh ricotta cheese
- Fresh thyme
- Salt
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Meanwhile, pour 1 tablespoon of the oil into a large nonstick skillet. Turn the heat to medium-high. Toss in the onions and the brown sugar. Stir constantly, and cook for about 15 minutes, or until the onions are nicely browned and caramelized. Pour in the vinegar, and add the crushed red pepper. Cook for 1 minute, or until very thick. Season with salt.
Brush the bread with the rest of the olive oil. Place on a baking sheet in the oven and cook for about 8 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Place two slices of prosciutto on each slice. Then top each with 1/4 cup of ricotta and a spoonful of the marmalade. Sprinkle with chopped thyme and salt to taste.

ARM Mali-400 MP Technology Brings High-end Graphics to all Consumer Devices
Multicore graphics solution revolutionizes user experiences with pioneering scalability
CAMBRIDGE, UK – June 2, 2008 – ARM [(LSE:ARM); (Nasdaq:ARMH)] today announced the ARM® Mali™-400 MP scalable multiprocessor graphics solution, capable of delivering performance of up to 1G pixels per second and enabling licensees to serve multiple product markets with the same architecture, whilst retaining the flexibility to choose the optimum power, performance and area configuration for their application. The pioneering Mali-400 MP architecture offers breakthrough scalability, also reducing costs for developers and OEMs associated with platform fragmentation, as no changes are required to support one to four processors.
"Architectural reuse of software and hardware components is of increasing importance to SoC developers," said Frank Dickson, co-founder and chief research officer, MultiMedia Intelligence. "The scalability of the ARM Mali-400 MP GPU, from 300 million to over 1 billion pixels per second, will enable OEMs to deliver a wide range of market-leading products on the same underlying architecture, reducing their total cost of ownership and maximizing ROI."
The ARM family of Mali GPUs is opening up new product markets that will benefit from graphics acceleration, from mobile feature phones through to 1080p-based iDTVs. Recent Mali GPU licensees in the set-top box market mean that the consumer experience in the home is set for a radical change.
"We see an increasing need for pixel processing of up to 1G pixels in the home as HD screens become ubiquitous," said Ola Larsén, vice president of marketing at TAT, an ARM Mali Developer Relations Program Partner. "The set-top box and digital TV user interface will never be the same once graphics acceleration such as Mali technology becomes the standard."
The Mali-400 MP solution builds on ARM's experience and knowledge gained in the widely-adopted ARM MPCore™ technology, implemented in the ARM11™ MPCore and Cortex™-A9 MPCore multicore processors, designed to reduce system bandwidth, optimize performance and reduce power consumption.
"The battle for consumers' attention across all consumer electronics product markets means that the graphics acceleration capability of these devices is rapidly becoming a must-have feature. Consumers expect an equally compelling user experience when accessing content from their mobile and digital home entertainment devices," said Michael Dimelow, director of marketing, Media Processing Division, ARM. "The ARM Mali-400 MP graphics solution enables our customers to bring scalable graphics processing performance to a wider range of product markets and more economically than before."
Power consumption and area efficiency are key aspects of the Mali-400 MP GPU design. The ability to scale performance to meet different price points and power budgets allows the Mali-400 MP GPU to address the widest possible market while bringing significant cost benefits through utilizing the same single software stack across multiple devices.
The ability to capture the attention of consumers through the display on their electronic devices, as demonstrated by a range of high-end designs today, is driving the need for hardware graphics acceleration in a wide range of consumer devices. The scalable multicore graphics processing design of the Mali-400 MP solution will help bring graphics acceleration to almost any device with a screen.
The ARM Mali-400 MP GPU is available for licensing today. More information about the ARM Mali graphics stack.

An ICW is an event that takes place "in conjunction with" the
Annual Meeting but is scheduled and organized as a separate event.
These events are not sponsored by any AOM division, interest group,
or committee. ICWs provide a valuable opportunity for
organizations, universities, and/or groups to host an event or
gathering at the Annual Meeting, where many of their participants
are conveniently located in one area. ICWs are scheduled
within the AOM contracted properties where Annual Meeting sessions
take place. The Annual Meeting locations are posted on the housing
website in February. All ICW requests must be submitted
through the AOM Submission Center, which will begin in late April. The AOM Submission Center captures special
requests such as preferred day, time, location, number of people
expected to attend, outdoor preferences, if the session should be
listed in the program, etc. Also, all ICW events are
scheduled based upon room and space availability at each property,
therefore all requests are not guaranteed. (NOTE: Please refrain from contacting the Annual Meeting properties directly as they are unable to release any space to outside organizations.)
ICW organizers do not need to be AOM members or registered for
the meeting to submit an ICW request. However, anyone attending the
ICW event onsite, must be
registered to attend the meeting and must be a member of the
Academy of Management. Attendee badges will be checked upon entry
into each session.
ICW events require a nominal fee, based upon the size of the
event. The costs are provided below in Figure 1. Additional costs,
such as catering orders or audio visual rental fees are additional
and are the responsibility of the submitter/organizer. AOM does NOT
have any involvement in placing orders or covering the costs for ICW-related equipment or expenses. All catering orders must be placed
through the Convention Services Manager (CSM) at the appropriate
property and the menus will be offered at the AOM negotiated
conference rate. Outside food is not permitted.
ICW events cannot be used for interview purposes nor can they be
used by an AOM division, interest group, or committee to obtain
additional program time. However, DIGs are able to submit ICW
events for non-AOM related events, such as Journal events or other
outside events. Memorial services can also be scheduled as an ICW
event and will receive a complimentary room for the event.
Please review the ICW FAQ Document for
more details on how to submit an ICW event, the payment process,
and additional instructions.

Jonelle Olson, prepare for a busy Homecoming weekend. One of the five will be chosen by students
when they vote tomorrow in the student center. Results will be announced tomorrow before the "Sounds
of Freedom" program.
the CLARION Hinerman Talks A •
Homecoming 'Faces Freedom'
Queen Candidates Plan
Numerous Appearnces
Alumni Homecoming banquet
will climax the weekend's festivi-ties
at 6:30 p.m. in the fieldhouse.
Six hundred guests and students
will gather to hear the evening's
address given by Rev. C. Philip
Emcee for the banquet is Rev.
Richard Turnwall of Salem Bap-tist
church. Directed by Ed An-thony,
a sixteen-voice ensemble
will provide musical entertainment.
Homecoming queen will bring
greetings along with greetings
from the alumni host and hostess,
Rev. and Mrs. Paul Edwards.
Alumni will also vote on an amend-ment
to their constitution at the
Speaker Hinerman comes from
the Park Avenue Methodist church
in Minneapolis, which is an inner-city
church. His address will cover
the topic "The New Freedom."
"Student tickets are limited and
those who cannot go to the ban-quet
are welcome to go to the
program," says head of the ban-quet
committee, Margaret Wessel.
"Faces of Freedom" is the theme for Bethel's 1964 Homecoming
which will run Thursday through Saturday with events scheduled both
on and off campus.
Queen candidates Judy Lindaman, Linda McKelvy, Phoebe Netter-lund,
Jonelle Olson and Judy Van Wambeke are slated to participate in
numerous activities as students and alumni congregate on campus this
week for the annual affair.
Commencing the round of appearances for the queen and her

the new queen, while one of the football team's tri-captains will
present her with a dozen roses.
Friday night the royal five will extend greetings to students, fac-ulty
and alumni in a program in the fieldhouse. Later they will at-tend
"The Curse of the Aching Heart," a melodrama presented by
Bethel dramatists. Closing the evening, the court will be present at a
victory pepfest in the center of the campus.
Homecoming queen and the four princesses begin their official
duties for Saturday at the afternoon football game. Halftime activities
will start as the royal court rides around the field at Midway Stadium
in convertibles, greeting fans from both schools.
Trophy awards for Homecoming decorations will be given at this
time, followed by a presentation to the Queen of a football signed
by all team members. Saturday evening the queen will be seated at
the head table at the 6:30 banquet and will speak during the program.
The queen candidates were selected by the student body from the
junior and senior classes. Judy Lindaman, from Aplington, Iowa, is a
senior this year and is interested in social work. Linda McKelvy, a
former Bethel cheerleader, is a junior this year. Miss McKelvy is from
Warren, Pennsylvania.
A local St. Paul resident, junior Phoebe Netterlund has been
active in drama at Bethel. She is an English major. Hailing from
Forest City, Iowa, is Jonelle Olson, a junior. Judy Van Wambeke is
a senior, a dorm counselor in Bodien Residence and has been active
on the Student Senate.
Escorting the queen and prin-cesses

over 60 of the Conference church-es
are without pastors and only a

graduates of Bethel Seminary.
The one time pastor of three
Conference churches said he
would drive for full accredita-tion
with the American Associa-tion

"With these goals in mind," said
Dean Johnson, "I'm sure we can
look forward to an eventful year

Johnson is the seventh dean of
the seminary since its founding in
1871 by John Alexis Edgren. He
grew up living on Arona next to
Bethel. (See page 3 for history of

Actors Present
Homecoming's "Faces of Free-dom"
will smile when the drama
group stages "Curse of the Aching
Heart or Caught in the Spider's
Web" Friday evening, 8 p.m. in
the College auditorium. The classic
"old style" presentation will pro-vide
overt humor for the audience
and a challenge to the actors who
will have to play hilarious parts in
all sincerity.
The plot is typically hero Lucius
Goodenough, Dave Swedberg, and
heroine Melody Lane, Sue Grif-fith,
versus villain Windamer
Hightower, Rick Welch.
The supporting cast includes
Hiram (father) Abernathy, Keith
Madson; Sarah (mother) Aber-nathy,
Barb Grouds; Battle Axe
Annie, Janet Appelquist; Red
Wing, Sharon Heinrichs; Aureila
Abernathy, Diane Cocksedge;
and the Unknown Visitor, Stan
Besides the melodramatic pre-sentation,
an audience sing-a-long,
several Gay 90's minstrel songs
and oleos between acts will pro-vide
added entertainment.
Hissing the villain, booing the
heroine, clapping for the hero
and even throwing popcorn is
entirely permissable. Conces-sions
will be sold at the door for
audience members who feel the
need to participate.
Homecoming's "Faces of Free-dom"
will take on a more serious
countenance at the "Sounds of
Freedom" program which will be
presented Thursday and Friday
nights, Oct. 15-16, in the field-house

Letters to the Editor:
Weigam Questions Drama
From the time when the United States was just 13 English
colonies until now, Americans have sought to be free from
restraints that keep them from developing their potential
Some people in those 13 colonies decided that the English
laws were a hindrance to the growth of the American colonies.
To justify fighting a war to end English control they wrote a
Declaration of Independence stating why they should be free:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men
are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator
with certain inalienable rights, that among these are Life,
Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness, that to secure these
rights, Governments are instituted among men, deriving their
just powers from the consent of the governed."
And it has been to the ideals expressed in this Declaration
that Americans have looked when they have thought it neces-sary
to secure or protect their freedom. Right after they had
gained freedom from England they set up a Confederation
and, to protect their freedom from their own government, they
consented to give it little power.
But discovering that real freedom did not exist without
restraints and regulations, they wrote a Constitution which
created a government with more power to guarantee the
"inalienable rights." Later they added a Bill of Rights listing
the rights the government should protect and not usurp.
Freedom was not talked about much again until the
Civil War. Then Americans discovered that one group of
people did not have the freedom the government was sup-posed
to guarantee. So with a war, a proclamation and some
constitutional amendments the Negro slaves were freed.
Secular Totalitarianism Poses
Americans Still Search Threat To Evangelical Church
For Old Ideal, Freedom
Page 2 the CLARION Wednesday, October 14, 1964
by Paul R. Johnson
The Evangelical church today is
faced with the two-pronged chal-lenge
of attack from without and
weakening from within, accord-ing
to recent lecturer Dr. Gordon
H. Clark.
In an interview, he suggested
that an increase in "secular total-itarianism"
is the primary external
threat to contemporary Evangeli-calism.
We live in a predominantly
secular society—one based upon
materialistic naturalism. That
this society is attempting to im-press
or impose its secularism on
individual lives is seen in the
a-theistic, and even anti-theistic
atmosphere of public education.
Misapplication of the Supreme
Court's prayer decision to rule out
individual religious practices also
betrays the secular society's will-ingness
to put religion aside. Ac-cording
to Dr. Clark, increasing
government control of individual
lives poses another avenue for
secular totalitarianism to make its
will known.
Cultural secularism has had its
influence within the church, also;
hence the internal threat. The

his point of view. His reference
to "the tragic Yalta betrayal," for
example, is not presented as a
value judgment or an opinion, but
as a fact!
He states (p. 29) that President
Franklin Roosevelt gave Stalin the
eastern half of Poland and the
Baltic states of Estonia, Latvia,
and Lithuania, while the truth is
that the United States gave no-thing
to Russia. The Baltic states
had been occupied by Russia early
in World War II (1940), and Po-land
was occupied by Russia when
they pushed the German armies
back in 1944 and 1945.
The Yalta Agreement (1945)
recognized that Russia was in
control of these areas and as-sumed
that they would withdraw
in due time according to the
agreement. The fact that Russia
did not live up to the agreement
does not make a case for treason
on the part of President Roose-velt
or his advisers.
Treason is ubiquitous in the
book. He charges that China was
betrayed "by a handful of Amer-ican
traitors and their liberal.
dupes," (p. 31), but some very
fine scholars attribute much of
the blame to the Nationalist Chin-ese
government and corruption
from within that organization.

he arrives at this conclusion is

He takes a quote from a text-book
by Todd and Curti (p. 107)
referring to the Federalists and
their preference for a government
run by the rich and well-born, and
presents it as a case for the class

public schools.

us to look at life for

life and our place in it.
We were told that if we really
wanted a way out of our simple

Meanwhile others chose to find
"life," but a different kind of life.
This life is not bounded by petun-ias,
but neither is it surrounded
by wild roses.
While pumpkin stealing might
be a means of rebellion and per-sonal

Hamilton, Washington, and other
Federalists believed just this way,
not because they hated the lower
classes, but because they did not
consider uneducated, untrained
lower classes capable of ruling.
This attitude is known as
"nobless oblige" and its existence
among the aristocracy in colon-ial
America is well known.
Stormer further states (p. 107)
that the economic determinism
of Charles Beard is followed
blindly by most textbook writers
even though "Beard later repent-ed
and repudiated his interpre-tation
as faulty." He is wrong
on both counts.
Most textbook writers do not
accept Beard without some modi-fication,

With new vigor Phil led the

I would like to take this oppor-tunity
to thank those powers that
be for bringing he Swedish Youth

enjoyed their performance
and am looking forward to such
events in the future.

J. Alexis Edgren
by Gloria Nelson
"The school is for Swedes and
others who understand the Swe-dish
language," wrote Dr. J. Alexis
Edgren in a Chicago newspaper in
1871, publicizing the opening of
the Swedish Theological Seminary,
now the Bethel Seminary.
Edgren founded the Seminary
because he realized the laymen of
the Conference did not have back-ground
for preaching. During his
16 years as dean, the Seminary
was supported by the University
of Chicago.
One pupil, Christopher Silene,
responded to the newspaper ar-ticle
the first year. After 12
years, the student body had
grown to number 32 pupils. Ed-gren
taught practically all the
classes. He knew 16 spoken and
16 unspoken languages.
Eric Sandell succeeded Edgren
in 1887 as acting dean for two
years. Sandell was especially keen
in debate. In one of his notablq
debates with the Lutherans con-cerning
baptism, they presented
him with an honorary degree.
Karl G. Lagergren served as dean
for the following 31 years. At his
lectures, Lagergren always wore
a scull cap.
In 1914, the Seminary moved
to Saint Paul, Minnesota to join
the Swedish Baptist General
Academy which had begun in
1905. The new school was called
"Bethel Academy and Seminary
of The Swedish Baptist General
Conference." After 1914, the
standards in the Seminary were
raised making high school gra-duation
compulsory for admis-sion.
In 1922, Arvid G. Gordh, the
founder of Bethel Academy be-came
dean. Because of his distaste
for administration, he resigned
three years later and taught in
the seminary until his death in
1940. His grandson, Doug Gordh,
is now a freshman at Bethel.
His successor, Karl J. Karlson,
was characterized by his ability
to be warm and friendly without
ever losing his dignity as dean.
His Swedish brogue was often
mocked by the Seminary students.
Sensing the need of college
training for the Seminary stu-dents,
he helped to establish a
junior college in 1931. This re-placed
the Academy which was
finally discontinued in 1936. The
new school was called "Bethel
College and Seminary."
Karl Karlson was killed in an
automobile accident at the begin-ning
of Edwin J. Omark's dean-ship.
During his administration,
Omark revised the entire Sem-inary
curriculum, increased the
enrollment to 160, and built the
largest faculty in Bethel's his-tory.
Dean Omark resigned last spring
and was replaced by Gordon John-son.
Dean Johnson first came to
the Seminary in 1959, as Professor
of Preaching and Director of Field

Iranian Thinks Bethel Co-eds'All Right-- ;
Puzzled by American Political Customs

Born in Iran near the equator, freshman Gregory

Greg graduated from high school in 1964 and
is 20 years old. The summer following his graduation
Greg and two of his friends toured Europe from
Rome to England on two Italian scooters.
Then he flew to New York. Greg says he misses
his friends and scooter most of all. He hopes to re-turn
to Iran in four years.
He thinks, "Americans are very friendly. Amer-ica

general. Everything comes in big packages." The
only criticism he gives concerning Americans in Iran
is, "They don't put themselves on the same level
as the Iranians."
Concerning politics, his reply is, "You can never
tell which candidate will be best for the presidency."
He can't understand how people can be so sure that

Dale Rogers paced the Royal
harriers to a 16-43-86 victory over
River Falls and Northwestern

Bethel's first in four meets, show-ed
a fast-growing running strength
which will make itself evident in

River Falls took the next five
places with Oscar Skoog, Mike
Jirovec, Mike Reed, Bary Harel-stad
and Fred Lindberg placing
8th through 12th. Dave Winter,
the first Northwestern runner,
finished 13th and was followed

The Northland Lumberjacks in-vaded
Midway Stadium Saturday
and played the kind of game that
Bethel hasn't seen the Lumber,
jacks play in several years. They
were a spirited and hard hitting
ball club. The result was that
Bethel led by a slim 7-6 margin
at the half, but bounced back for
three touchdowns and a 26-6 vic-tory.
Action started early in the first
quarter as Northland fumbled the
ball on its own 8 yard line and
Bethel recovered. Several plays
later Stan Miller hit pay dirt on
an 8 yard plunge. Peterson booted
the PAT and with nine minutes
showing on the clock, the Royals
had moved to a 7-0 edge.
Northland stiffened to begin
the drive which, though inter-rupted
at times, resulted in their
only score midway through the
second period. The score re-mained
7-6 into the second half.
The third quarter was one in
which the fans had a chance to
roar their approval as the Royals
rallied to break the game wide
After exchanging the ball on
downs, Bethel gained possession
on the 45 yard line and marched
determinedly to the three on runs
by Price, Miller and Land. Nolin
then slipped in with the key six
points and once again Peterson
kicked the point. The Lumber-jacks
were never the same again.
Nolin took to the air ways to
set up Bethel's third score with
a 30 yard pass play to John Car-mean.
Miller was again the hero
as he bulled over from the 12.
Don Land, who could do nothing
wrong in the second half, picked
up a fumble at mid-field and side-stepped
to the 35 before being run
out of bounds. Several minutes
later he gathered in a swing pass
and scampered for 25 yards to
make the final score 26-6.

Beadles Will Invade
Royals' Homecoming
The Bethel Royals football team
will be carrying a perfect 5-0 re-cord
into Saturday's Homecoming
clash with General Beadle. Already
the possessors of a Pioneer Con-ference
championship, they will
be gunning for even higher stakes
—extension of the first perfect re,
cord in Bethel's football history.
The defensive team, which ranks
as one of the best in the state,
will again be called upon by Coach
Halleen to stop a strong Beadle
with Ron Harris
A fallen tree extends from the shore out under the water, and
you drop your spoon hook alongside it, retrieving rapidly, preparing
yourself for the strike you feel on every cast. The next target is a
clump of reeds, then a lily pad. Five-10-15 casts later, your bait lands
within splashing distance of a slanting snag. Is that a wake building
up behind your spoon?
It is; you grow tense, manage to keep reeling a steady speed,
though you want to slow up and let the following fish catch up. The
bait approaches the boat; you haven't breathed; suddenly the water
boils, you feel the strike, you set the hook ... and you're playing a
big Northern.
To those of you who have caught a touchdown pass to win a
ball game; who have come from behind to win with a 440 yard dash;
who have hit a bases loaded single in the last of the ninth to break
up a ball game; who have sunk a long approach shot or hit the
green from 280 yards out; who have sent an overhead smash to your
opponents feet to win the match and set—you, too, have sensed the
thrill of that Northern pike.
Since Graeco-Roman times, when the Olympics dominated the
scene, men have been infatuated with the spirit of competition. This
competitive spirit is now evident not only in our athletic events, but
in many other aspects of our daily lives—public debate, scholastic com-petition,
elections—the list is incalculable. But perhaps athletics tops
the field because it pits all of man's faculties against those of his
Thus when you pass through the coffee shop this week and notice
a sea of faces glaring in to the "boob tube," try not to be shocked.
For they're Greeks, all of them—in spirit at least. They're cheering
with all the liveliness of a second century Greek at the Olympic
Games. The scene is repeated throughout the Twin Cities and in every
Hometown, U.S.A.
Sidewalks are jammed as people stop to look in the window at
the television set and eagerly await the scoreboard to be shown. Phil
Linz homers and the fans go wild. Lou Brock is called out on strikes
and the umpire is booed. Mickey Mantle steps up to the plate and the
home crowd roars its approval. Whitey Ford is thrown out stealing
home and the partisan coffee shop fans, all of whom are underdog
rooters, shout their approval.
It is World Series time in America and it only comes once a year.
So professors be patient when that panting student comes rushing
into class, minutes after the bell has rung. President Lundquist, per-severe
the crisis when Mr. Sprinkel is late with his weekly report ...
merely smile and ask him the score, winning pitcher, statistics, etc.
Most importantly, don't you dolls be surprised if you don't see
your guy for the next week. He has suddenly become enamored with
something far more important than your vivacious personality; he
has become umpire, player, coach and broadcaster simultaneously. Just
piss him the coke and potato chips and be patient—remember, this
weekend is Homecoming.

This is a story without the usual ending. In the classic barn find narrative, our hero unearths a long-lost iconic muscle car in some barn in rural Iowa discovered after accidentally overhearing a lunchtime conversation. He then completes a meticulous restoration that wows the assembled throng, who sings his praises, making him an instant celebrity.
None of that happens here.
Like the drag racer who said, "I'd rather be lucky than good," this story is all about being at the right place at the right time and sweetened with a heaping tablespoon of dumb luck.
When I somehow managed to bluff then-Car-Craft-Editor Rick Voegelin into hiring me as a wet-nosed feature editor in the spring of 1979, my future ex-wife, Susan, and I moved to Burbank, California. After a few weeks of learningthe art of negotiating L.A. freeways, we began the search for the car she wanted-a red '66 Mustang fastback. While I harbor no ill feelings toward Fords, I secretly planned to convince her that an early Camaro was a far better choice. We spent a whole Saturday looking at a rash of unworthy Mustangs.
After dismissing all the previous Fords, there was a Camaro just around the corner that we investigated. After a quick once-over, the Camaro appeared a bit shabby but straight. During the testdrive, the engine detonated badly, but I had already decided to buy the car-with her money. The Camaro was fitted with what I assumed was a 275hp 327, a Powerglide with a nonstock but OE shifter that looked like it came out of an early Vette, front disc brakes, 15-inch Rally wheels, and dual exhaust. The Granada Gold color and gold interior were lame, but we drove the Camaro away for $1,250. As we learned later, that was the deal of a lifetime.
One thing it did do well was accelerate, especially for a Powerglide car. Nailing the throttle produced impressive tire spin from both tires, but it detonated badly. What was odd was what appeared to be a factory-installed square-tube traction bar on the passenger side of the car. After we had owned the car for a couple of weeks, I decided to determine if the engine was original to the car. The sequence stamped into the block matched the VIN stamped in the doorjamb, so it appeared this was the original engine. When I looked up the two-letter MP code stamped into the block, my motor's manual listed this as a '67 290hp 327 with AIR. I knew that couldn't be correct because that was a Z/28 engine-and at this point I didn't want to believe this was a Z/28. Where were the aluminum intake, Holley carb, and four-speed?
I began to do research in earnest, and most of my contacts at that time scoffed at the idea that the car was a Z/28. I mentioned all this one day to Jim McFarland, who at this time was the vice president of R&D at Edelbrock. He told me about someone named Jim Losee who had previously worked at Edelbrock and knew an awful lot about Z/28s and that I could find him at Gledhill Chevrolet in Wilmington, California. I called Jim and we took the car to him one weekday evening.
Jim and I spent the next few hours partially disassembling the car looking for clues. The fact that the engine numbers matched was a puzzle to him, and he was equally skeptical. We counted tire revolutions and realized the car had a 3.73:1 rear gear, which was the standard Z/28 gear along with what Jim recognized as a factory traction bar. Up front the car had the correct disc brakes and Z/28-only 15-inch Rally wheels. It even had this rectangular hole cut in the firewall that was the exact dimension for what would have been a cowl-induction air cleaner. All this pointed to the fact that the car was a Z/28, but Jim was still not convinced.
This is what the engine compartment looked like just after we bought the car. All Z/28s de
The previous owner told me he had put an Earl Scheib paint job on the car, and Jim and I already knew that in 1967 the only external cue for the Z/28 was the factory stripes in a contrasting color. After a couple of hours of searching, we had not found anything conclusive. Remember, this was long before anyone had deciphered the mystical trim tag hieroglyphics, so we were hunting without knowing about the magic 4L code I would learn much later. That's when Jim saw a faint yet visible paint contrast just at the base of the rear window where the trunk seal met the body. There he saw two sets of what had to be factory-applied black stripes that carried over in the trunk seal area.
"You see that?" Jim asked me, pointing to the stripes that were all but painted over.
"Yeah!" I said because we both knew at that point, we had proved to ourselves that this was a Z/28.
"You, my friend, own a '67 Z/28 . . . wanna sell it?"
At that moment, a guy I had previously never met instantly became a good friend that I am proud to say extends to this day. Jim now lives in Texas and is still deeply buried in this wonderful automotive lifestyle that affects everything we both do.
This is the collection of repair receipts and canceled checks Mary Bobel collected over th
Along the way, I also learned much more about the Z/28's history. The gentleman who sold me the car was a mere intermediary. We'll get back to him in a minute. In the glovebox was a collection of receipts all pointing to a woman by the name of Mary Bobel. From these records, it appeared she had owned the car since 1969, and I found her living in Monrovia, California (yes, that's almost Pasadena). Susan and I set up an appointment to talk, and this wonderful lady filled in much of the car's missing history. In 1969, she was looking for a car, and her son found this Granada Gold Camaro with black stripes sitting on the used car lot at Lindy Chevrolet in Arcadia. The car was equipped in much the same condition as I purchased it 19 years later, but Mary was quick to point out that it was in fact a Z/28
In a disappointing sidebar to this tale, in the middle of our discussion, I asked Mary if she had ever seen a small plate that looked like a metal credit card. This perky little lady immediately said, "I think I still have it." She disappeared into a side room for several minutes only to reappear with a frown. "I just remembered that I cleaned out the closet where I kept that a couple of weeks ago. I threw all that stuff into the garbage. I'm sorry." For a moment or two, I had this vision of me sifting through mountains of garbage, searching for a '67 Camaro Protect-O-Plate.
After driving the Camaro for 10 years, Mary sold it to a friend for the princely sum of $500. At the time, Mary said she told him the car was a Z/28. "But I don't think he believed me." That would be his loss. He had the car painted and then sold it to us.
I now knew more about the car's history and slowly began collecting a few OE parts in anticipation of a full restoration. But since Car Craft was never a muscle car restoration magazine, there was never a push to rebuild it. Plus, there always seemed to be other projects that were more important. I eventually moved to Hot Rod as editor, and the demands on my time with travel and two young children meant the car just sat. We bought a new house a few miles away with a bigger yard to store more cars, and that's when my marriage came apart and I ended up with the car.
The Camaro has changed very little from the days when Susan drove it every day to work. The disc brake calipers began to leak back in the early '80s, which was a common affliction. I had Stainless Steel Brakes install stainless liners in the calipers, which is how that company got its start-rebuilding Corvette calipers. The engine is still disassembled and sitting in my shop, maintaining the same state of disassembly for more than 25 years. Like I said in the beginning of this soliloquy, this story has not yet arrived at its Cinderella ending. The car is exactly as you see it in the current photos. I have most of the parts to put it back together, and I've even toyed with the idea of building the engine, tossing a wide-ratio Muncie behind it, and getting it running, shabby seats and all. Maybe that's the next new movement for barn find cars. It might be a hoot. Then again, maybe not...
The Z/28 Option
The whole reason the Z/28 was created was to compete with the Fords and Mopars in the SCCA Trans-Am series. The over 2.0L class limited displacement to 5.0 liters, or 305 ci. Since Chevy didn't have a 5.0L engine, it responded in classic car crafter fashion by building a 302ci engine using a small-journal 327 4.00-inch-bore block and a forged-steel 3.00-inch-stroke 283 crankshaft. The cam was the classic Duntov 30-30 mechanical lifter camshaft along with a set of 462 iron 2.02/1.60-inch valve heads, an aluminum dual-plane intake manifold, and a Holley carburetor.
Since this was a road race car, Chevy bolted on a set of RPO J52 four-piston disc brake calipers and then specified a set of 15 x 6-inch Rally wheels mounted with 7.35 x 15-inch tires. A Muncie four-speed was the only transmission available (close ratio was standard, wide ratio was optional) along with a standard 3.73:1 rear gear and a factory-installed traction bar. This was back in the day when you could also get as deep as a 4.88:1 gear straight off the factory order form. The minimal Z/28 package in 1967 was the engine, four-speed, a 3.73:1-geared 12-bolt, and power disc brakes. Other options such as the RS package, headers, cowl induction, an air cleaner, a vinyl top, the spoiler package, and tach and gauges were available. My car did have a few options, including a tinted windshield, a console, and Positraction, along with a radio and a heater.
Everyone knows there were only 602 of these cars built in 1967. What I've never uncovered (not that I've looked very hard) is the number of Z/28s delivered for sale with the California emissions package. This has to reduce the number down to perhaps a few dozen at most.

Brent crude jumped to $111 a barrel on Thursday as fighting in the Gaza Strip sparked worries an escalation could ultimately disrupt oil supplies from the Middle East.
Hamas fired dozens of rockets into southern Israel, killing three, and Israel launched numerous air strikes across the Gaza Strip as the military showdown lurched closer to all-out war.
Continue Reading Below
Oil rose as Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi said Israel's attacks on the Gaza Strip were "unacceptable" and would lead to instability in the region.
Hamas is an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood which now controls Egypt, Israel's most powerful Arab neighbour and a crucial partner in the 1979 peace treaty that stands between fragile stability and regional chaos.
The fighting raises fears for the security of fuel supplies from the Middle East, which produces a third of the world's oil.
Brent crude rose $1.39 to $111.00 a barrel before slipping back to $110.77 at 1245 GMT. U.S. oil was up 18 cents at $86.50, after ending 94 cents up on Wednesday.
"I have a hard time seeing (prices) falling back much at the moment, at least while tension is still high," said Filip Petersson, an analyst at SEB in Stockholm.
"We would probably need to hear some kind of statements that indicate the Israelis are stepping down, but I think that's unlikely to happen at the moment."
A Hamas rocket killed three Israelis north of Gaza on Thursday, the first Israeli fatalities of the latest conflict in the coastal region.
Israel on Wednesday assassinated the top Hamas military commander, Ahmed Al-Jaabari, and shelled the enclave from land, sea and air, killing 13 people and wounding more than 100.
"The Israelis must realise that this aggression is unacceptable and would only lead to instability in the region and would negatively and greatly impact the security of the region," Mursi said in a televised address to Egypt on Thursday.
Oil price gains were limited, however, by data showing the euro zone debt crisis had weighed on the currency bloc's economic activity in the third quarter and by persistent fiscal worries in the United States.
Economic data showed the 17-nation euro zone had slipped into its second recession since 2009 in the July-September period as the three-year debt crisis slowed growth in Germany.
Euro zone gross domestic product (GDP) slipped 0.1 percent in the third quarter of 2012 from the previous three months, while growth in Germany, Europe's largest economy, cooled to 0.2 percent.
Investors are worried that a package of tax increases and spending cuts mandated to come into force in the United States next year if a deal is not agreed - the so-called "fiscal cliff" - will tip the world's biggest economy and top oil consumer back into recession.
"The overall economy is weak, but prices are biased to rise because geopolitical risks are going up," said Tony Nunan, a risk manager at Mitsubishi Corp. "That's going to be the story for the rest of the year - a weak economic outlook but higher prices because of supply worries."
Data due later in the day from the federal Energy Information Administration (EIA) on U.S. crude and product stockpiles will provide more direction to prices.

Getting married is supposed to be one of the happiest times in your life, but it doesn't come cheap.

Recent data shows the average U.S. nuptials cost $27,000, a figure that can be hard to swallow in the current economic climate. It can be easy for couples to get swept up in the wedding bliss and overspend, but experts say creating a dream wedding doesn't have to cost a house downpayment.
"You can have a beautiful wedding without breaking the bank and going into debt," says wedding expert Linda DiProperzio.
Here are four expert tips to host a beautiful wedding without the hefty price tag:
Tip 1: Plan and Stick to Budget
Before planning anything, experts advise couples sit down and determine exactly how much they can afford on the big day. Once a number is agreed upon, they should figure out the type of wedding and if it's realistic with their financial plan.
"The best way to keep it cheap is to have less people," says Xochitl Gonzalez, co-founder of wedding planning services A.a.B.Creates. It can be easy to spend $250 to $300 per person including the cost of the band, venue and photographer, so be selective with who gets an invite.
Brides-to-be, swept up in the moment, tend to quickly book an expensive venue, not realizing that it's only half the expense of a wedding, says Gonzalez. She says if a venue costs $26,000, be prepared to spend twice that when all is said and done.
Tip 2: Raise Extra Cash
Experts warn against going into debt for a wedding and recommend getting another job to raise more funds if couples must have a higher budget wedding. They should also cut back their spending and try alternatives ways to raise cash like selling unused good or tutoring.
It's also a good idea to lay off the plastic when paying for the wedding. "I wouldn't start charging because what happens when the bill comes and you don't have the money to pay it off," says DiProperzio. "The balance starts to accumulate interest and possibly finance charges, and before you know it, you can be in serious debt." Starting off a marriage with significant debt can be hard.
Tip 3: Tap Hidden Talents
Do-it-yourself weddings have become more popular in these tight financial times, and experts should enlist their friends and family members for help making their day special.
"Maybe you have a cousin who is a graphic designer who can make your invitations," says Kim Forrest, editor of Weddingwire.com. Perhaps a best friend has flair when it comes to flowers. "DIY weddings are really big right now. Utilize the talents and abilities of the people in your circle."
Brides can also try bartering with different vendors to help reduce costs.
Tip 4: Cut the Right Corners
It might be hard for brides to imagine, but their invitations will most likely end up in the trash and many guests skip the wedding cake.
"You don't need a million inserts and tissue paper in the envelopes," says DiProperzio. "Having a postcard reply card in lieu of a card that gets inserted into an envelope can save you a lot in postage."
A "fake" wedding cake can also be a big budget helper. DiProperzio suggests buying a tiered cake made of Styrofoam and have a baker decorate it to serve as a prop for photos. When it comes to eat, serve a much less-expensive sheet cakes to unsuspecting guests
"If you want to cut your cake in front of guests, the baker can make the bottom tier the real deal and the rest fake," she says.
Couples should keep in mind that a wedding is just a day and the marriage is forever, don't spend the next 10 years paying off the big day.
"Look at the things you can control," says Forrest. "Instead of having your wedding on a Saturday night in June have it on a Thursday night in January. Try to look at things that way rather than trying to raise a ton of money and doing something totally out of your budget."

The link is the same, so the cables and the switches are the same. The new switches will be based on a new crossbar wider than the current one (32x32 instead of 16x16), with other small goodies. So the difference is the number of ports you can fit on a blade (8->16) and in one box (128->256). The other difference will be the enclosure design (vertical blades, back/front airflow, hot-plug power). The link itself is the same, 4X links are not coming before 2004. > > For the rare rich people that would require 8 Gb/s (what's Infiniband > > wrongly measures 10 Gp/s), it would be done by bounding 2 PCIXE cards. > > > > On which level is this "bounding" done ?

In the PCIX-E cards, with 2 links, this is done at the firmware level: the decision to push packets on one of the 2 links is taken at the last minute depending on the load of the link and its availability. For NIC bounding, this is a driver/firmware combined support, it's below the public API. And it won't be GM or GM-2. Patrick -- Patrick Geoffray, PhD Myricom, Inc. http://www.myri.com
