When one visits Kyoto, Japan, one expects to spend the bulk of the time there visiting a long parade of temples. And that's exactly what we did, and for the most part, it was time well spent. However, there comes a time in every unwashed heathen's life when he simply needs a break from serene Buddhas and hordes of schoolkids, and in those times, a man is well served by hopping the train to the small town of Arashiyama in order to hike Mt. Arashiyama and, if all goes well, see one of his friends attacked by an irritable monkey.
After downing our traditional early morning Lawson breakfast, we hopped on the Japan Rail San-in/Sagano line bound for the outskirts of town. It looked like a lengthy train ride on the map, but it blew by quickly. Near our stop, gazing out of the window at the bundles of stores and close-quarter houses, I could have swore I caught a glimpse of a huge, hideous demon's head rising up from behind a thick row of trees. The hell? Best to let it slide, I figured, as wild stories about giant devils jumping out at us would hardly instill confidence in those who were depending on me to formulate the daily itineraries.
Before too long we found ourselves stepping off at the Saga-Arashiyama station. It was a thoroughly pleasing environment, very much what one might expect a small Japanese town to look like. Kyoto was still mere miles away, but you could hardly tell. The streets were narrow and sleepy, empty of any motor traffic beyond the occasional car. Instead, old folks and blue collar Joe's walked and biked to and fro, lugging around crates of goods, fish, or what have you.
The way to the monkey sanctuary lead us down the quaint roads of Arashiyama, out onto a main highway running along the banks of the wide, grassy Katsura River. The sloped banks on either side were lined with procrastinators, walkers, and the occasional artist doing his or her best to capture the beautiful mountainous scene while wearing the prerequisite fisherman's cap all Japanese artists seem to favor. Sure beats the beret. The river itself was shallow on one end because of a small dam, and fishermen with massive, long poles waded out into the waters in search of a day's meal or a morning's sport.
We crossed the long Togetsyu-kyo bridge alongside pedestrians, cyclists, and rickshaws being pulled by handsome, fit young men and women with lean athletic builds. Pretty much every rickshaw man or woman we saw possessed a rugged attractiveness, not unlike a surfer or a mountain climber. The build was an obvious necessity conditioned by days spend pulling tourists to and from various attractions, and the tan was a result of spending all your time outside.
On the right side of the bride, the other side of the dam, the water was much deeper, and small boats of various types replaced the fishermen. There were pontoons, two-person paddle boats, small rowboats, sight-seeing boats piloted by guys with long bamboo poles, and of course a few gaudy motorized tourist boats. The town on the other side of the river was not so different from a riverfront fishing town in the United States. Buildings in stilts cropped up along the plant-covered banks of the river that wandered lazily around the structures. Here and there were tourist shops selling trinkets of all varieties. After a bit of poking around, we found the narrow dirt path meandering up the side of one of the thickly forested mountains. Standing in downtown Kyoto, it was easy to forget you were surrounded on all sides by ancient mountains and forests, but out here in the smaller towns there was no way around it.
The path lead up a short distance, past a small temple, to the front gate of the Iwatayama Monkey Park. There were no other tourists in sight as it was still quite early in the morning, which was fine with me. As nice as the temples and shrines had been the day before, I was happy to be in an environment that was not only more natural, but also a lot less packed with masses of humanity. Admission to the park itself was ¥600, which was collected by a chipper old woman who couldn't stop talking to us with a great smile on her face despite the fact that we understood not a word coming out of her mouth. We simply went into the trusty "smile and nod" mode.
It was a beautiful, sunny day with a rich blue sky dotted by pure, snowy white clouds. These are the sort of days that are absolutely lovely up until the point you start hiking up a steep, narrow mountain path with the sun gleefully bathing you in all its glory. Amazing how quickly a warm and pleasant day becomes a sweat-drenched oven of a time. It wasn't too bad, really. At least they'd been kind enough to make a switchback trail that wound its way up the mountain slowly rather than shooting straight up. Still, every step was a reminder of just how quickly my body forgot everything it had learned from a previous season's backpacking.
We got a very quick pay-off however, as we were scarcely halfway up the trail to the top of the mountain before we ran into a couple macaques lounging about lazily in the shade, grooming one another, yawning, stretching, and generally behaving like your average primate. I am convinced that it is simply lower primate nature to put on a show whenever their hairless human cousins happen by, and these monkeys were no different. As we filed by, they decided to get especially amorous with one another, which is one of those things that simply never gets unfunny. Despite years of refinement and sophistication, literary and philosophical training, I'll laugh just as much today at a couple monkeys getting it on as I did the first time I saw it in a zoo as a wee one.
Well, you can only watch two monkeys fooling around for so long, especially when they get fed up with all the picture taking and wander back into the cover of the lush undergrowth. As we continued, with the occasional sound of monkey shouting erupting from the canopy of trees, I couldn't help but feel hundreds of eyes staring at me. When we finally broke through the trees at the top of the forest, it was evident why. In this dirt, grass, and hay covered area were dozens upon dozens of monkeys of all ages busily capering about, begging for peanuts, and of course, showing off their disturbing red asses.
A small tin roofed hut sat in the middle of the grounds, with monkeys climbing around and clinging to every surface. From inside the hut, caged humans could shuffle peanuts through the chicken wire out to the greedy monkeys free to run amok on the outside. It was, needless to say, amusingly ironic. There were a few humans up here, but that was small potatoes compared to the volume of monkeys scampering to and fro. Some drank water, others simply reclined on top of crates and mopeds. A few wrestled with one another, and one diligently gathered up little piles of gravel and rubbed the rocks furiously against his crotch. I was curious, but not curious enough to try it myself.
The area also provided a spectacular mountaintop view of the surrounding peaks, the river far below, and the mass of buildings off in the distance. It was fabulous, and you get used to all the monkeys running around very quickly. After taking it all in for a spell, we wandered back down the trail on the other side of the mountain, stumbling upon quite a few groups of monkeys resting in the bushes. One rather large and lazy looking monkey was sitting quietly along the side of the path, or at least he was sitting quietly up until the point one of us got a little too close, at which time the monkey lunged viciously at him, hissing and baring huge white fangs as it swatted at him and did the monkey equivalent of "made ya flinch!"
It was going to be difficult to top the monkey attack during the rest of the day, but we figured it was worth a shot. Back down by the river, we decided to shell out the yen for a leisurely boat ride in a rickety wooden affair pushed along by a guy who looked like a Shaolin monk with a long, bamboo pole. We headed up the river in the opposite direction of Kyoto, disappearing quickly into the maze of green hills and mountains that erupted on either side of the river. As civilization dropped away, it was easy to lie back and simply be overwhelmed and overjoyed by the quiet majesty of nature. Rich green dotted by pink, white, and purple flowers. A rare old thatched-roof hut here and there. Nothing but the smell of forest and the bubbling of the river.
At least until the goody boat came bussing up beside us. There are guys who make a living pulling up next to other boats on the river and asking them if they want any snacks. Drinks, beer, crackers and chips, that sort of thing. They even offer hot food like grilled squid they cook right there for you on an open flame, which might not be the best thing to do on a small wooden boat, but what the hell? They're professionals. Their arrival in the motorized boat is a slight intrusion, but they go away quickly if you don't want anything, and the whole thing is simply so "river town" and reminiscent of growing up along the banks of the Ohio River that I couldn't help but appreciate their efforts.
After pushing our way up the river until nothing remained but twisted old trees, mountains, and a large pool of placid water broken only by scattered boulders and lily pads, our boatman turned around and we headed back to the docks, very happy with our choice of boat tours.

St-Bruno-de-Montarville is a suburb of Montreal, on the south bank of the St. Lawrence, and on July 31, the temporary home of the Stanley Cup. On its arrival chez Talbot, there was no doubt where it was to be placed the designated spot had been chalked out on the front lawn! "It's like a freaking crime scene," someone said, and they all laughed heartily.
Maxime took the Stanley Cup to the Centre Marcel Dulude, named to honour the town's beloved former mayor, where he staged a fundraising brunch for the Children's Wish Foundation. Joined by Iceberg, Pittsburgh's loveable mascot, Talbot hosted 400 family members and friends. The oldest guest was definitely also the most proud Maxime's 97-year-old grandmother, Clothilde. "She was the mother of ten children," explained Maxime's brother Frank. "It was the first time all of us could make it for an event. I mean everybody! All the children and the children of the children. We are talking about more than 75 on my mother's side alone, plus 47 from the Talbot side. Then, there were another 300 friends, too!" Every single person in that room got their picture taken with Maxime and the Stanley Cup.
Next, it was a trip over to City Hall and a visit with Mayor Claude Benjamin, who asked the Penguins' star to sign the town's guest book. A media conference was then held on the front steps of City Hall.
Ten thousand fans were lined along rue de Montarville, St. Bruno's main street, waiting for their hero to arrive with the Stanley Cup. The procession was led by local cheerleaders, followed by a marching band.
Now, you saw amazing teamwork with the Pittsburgh Penguins during the 2008-09 season, but let me tell you, it extended into July, as well. You see, teammate Kris Letang joined Talbot for the parade, and it's a good thing. Maxime had surgery on his left shoulder and was having trouble lifting the Stanley Cup. And Letang also has a bad shoulder, so it took the two friends together to hoist Lord Stanley's bowl for the fans of St. Bruno.
The parade concluded at a park adjacent to Ecole de Montarville, where Maxime and his brothers went to elementary school. With Queen's 'We Are The Champions' blasting in the background, Talbot ascended the stairs to the stage. The Quebec president of the Children's Wish Foundation thanked Maxime for his generosity, and then Mayor Benjamin announced that a special plaque in Maxime's honour was going to be added to Michel Bilodeau. Representatives of the local minor hockey association presented Maxime with a special jersey that had the Montagnards' crest on the chest, the Penguins' logo on one shoulder and the Stanley Cup depicted on the other shoulder. They also told those gathered that a Maxime Talbot banner would hang in the arena during the annual Peewee hockey tournament.
Maxime followed with words of great appreciation to the Town of St. Bruno and all of its residents. He had specific words of thanks to his family and for his charity.
A special raffle had been held whereby tickets sold for $5 each, proceeds going to the Children's Wish Foundation. From all entries, 125 were randomly selected to meet Maxime and get a picture taken with the Stanley Cup.
One of Talbot's former junior teammates, Roberto Bissonette, is an incredibly talented musician, and created a song to honour Maxime. Click here to listen.
From the park, Maxime quickly changed clothes back at the family home, then took the Stanley Cup to the incredible home of Guy Laliberte, the founder of Cirque du Soleil, who lives nearby. Maxime had Stanley Cup photos taken at Laliberte's immense mansion. You will soon hear even more about Guy Laliberte, as in September 2009, Canada's first space tourist will board Soyuz TMA-16 and fly to the International Space Station. NASA has already suggested that there is no need for him to bring his stilts.
Back at his parents' house, Maxime and the family could relax for a couple of hours after a hectic morning and afternoon. Sushi had been prepared, and the Talbots dipped the fresh treat in soya sauce that had been poured into the Cup. Thoroughly washed, the Stanley Cup was then filled with champagne, and the family had a sip out of the Cup as they toasted Maxime's success.
There is a private island near Montreal in the St. Lawrence called Isle Charron, and that was the site of Max's Stanley Cup party. 400 of his closest friends and family, including Kris Letang and Marc-Andre Fleury, joined him for the bash, among them, the members of Simple Plan. But although that band didn't play, others did. Vilain Pinguouins opened the evening their name, translated to English, curiously becomes 'Naughty Penguins.' Later, Less BB, Dubmatique and Shine all performed amazing sets. Roberto Bissonette again played his tribute to Maxime, then followed it with a terrific song dedicated to Chris Chelios. Although my French is poor, I was able to pick out the phrase 'man crush.' Not sure if it was taken out of context!
The Stanley Cup left shortly after midnight, although the party carried on until dawn. Before the Cup left, Maxime expressed how much he had cherished the day, stating, "I hope it's not the last time we bring it to St. Bruno."
They took Lord Stanley's gift to hockey to nearby Boisbriand, where Pascal had played hockey as a youngster. There was a terrific reception there. After warming up by signing the registry, he signed autographs for another two hours, as fans from all over congregated to see the Stanley Cup and meet Dupuis. A VIP session afterwards saw Pascal meet fans and sign autographs for another 40 minutes.
The entourage piled into their vehicles and made the 5-hour drive to Mont-Carmel, Carole-Lyne's hometown. The Stanley Cup was welcomed enthusiastically at the Town Hall, where Pascal signed the guest book. While there wasn't time to do an actual photo session, Pascal walked the Cup slowly along the barrier so the huge crowd of fans could touch the trophy or take a picture of it as it passed by.
After dinner, the Cup was then taken to Centre Bionest de Shawinigan, the home arena of the junior club, the Cataractes. Pascal took the Stanley Cup into the dressing room for photographs, then was paraded out so that the horde of anxious fans could get pictures.
At 9:30 that evening, the gang climbed back onto the bus and was ready to party. On their way to the Broadway Pub, Pascal lifted the Stanley Cup through the bus's roof hatch as they drive, and got a series of thumbs-up from passing drivers, who couldn't believe their eyes.
The night concluded sooner than anyone wanted it to, but for Pascal Dupuis, he'll work equally hard again this season so he can continue the party next summer!

Our next entry in the Stanley Cup Journal pairs the goaltenders Mathieu Garon heads off with the Cup to Quebec City, and Marc-Andre Fleury takes it into Montreal.

Weather Affecting Farmers' Ability to Plant Crops
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) - Cool and wet conditions are continuing across South Dakota and have limited farmers' ability to complete fieldwork.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture says in its weekly crop report that producers had on average only 4.2 days suitable for fieldwork.
Winter wheat was jointed at 65 percent and headed at 8 percent. This is behind last year's pace of 95 percent and the average of 49 percent. Winter wheat conditions were rated 37 percent very poor, 19 percent poor, 32 percent fair, 12 percent good and 0 percent excellent.
Ninety percent of cattle were reported as moved to pasture compared to 84 percent the week before.
Pasture and range conditions rated 1 percent very poor, 11 percent poor, 30 percent fair, 47 percent good and 11 percent excellent.

New Calendar
Begins In Sept.
A longer summer vacation this
year was noted in new calendar
changes released here recently by
the college dean's office. The new
calendar will be in effect begin-ning
September, 1953.
The 1953-54 school term will
begin Wednesday, September 23,
1953. The present school year's
classes began on Wednesday, Sep-tember
10, 1952. This, in effect,
means classes will begin two
weeks later than previous years.
"Bethel is extending the fall
quarter to run up to the time of
the Christmas holidays in the corn-ing
school year. It is expected this
will aid in avoiding excessive class
cutting just prior to the holidays,"
was the statement received from
the dean's office.
The fall quarter will continue
until December 5. Examinations
for the first quarter will be Dec-ember
7 through 11. The regular
Christmas vacation will begin Fri-day,
December 11, at 5:30 p.m.
Classes will resume Tuesday, Janu-ary
5 as the Winter quarter.
In the spring, 1954, the school
year will end at approximately the
same date as this year. This year's
closing date is June 6 compared
to the 1954 date of June 4. Final
exams for the year will be May
28 through June 3. Commence-ment
will be Friday, June 4.
This is the only major change
announced in the new calendar.
Students Sing In
Chamber Recital
A program of Mr. Raid's compo-sition
will be featured at the next
chamber recital to be held Friday,
May 8, in the college chapel.
Mr. Kaljo Raid, instructor in
music, has written many composi-tions
— including choral works,
symphonies, solos and instrumen-tal
A choral group consisting of six-teen
Bethel students will perform
Mr.' Raid's "Proverbs" with the ac-companiment
from the Minneapo-lis
Symphany Orchestra. This in-strumental
accompaniment is
made up of two flutes, two trom-bones,
three cellos and a bass.
Also on the program will be
I'eggy Smith Bailey, who will play
a piano suite written by Mr. Raid;
and Mr. Valdeko Kangro, instruc-tor
in music, will play a violin
sonata written by Mr. Raid. String
quartet numbers will also be play-ed.
The Rev. John Purvis Woods
has been secured as speaker. A
former professor English at Beth-el,
he is now pastor of Arlington
Hills Presbyterian church in St.
Paul, as well as chaplain of the
Minnesota State Legislature.
Mrs. Bernard Hogan will offer
special music and Herb Hage,
seminary middleman, will serve as
master of ceremonies. "Called To
Be Servants" is the theme which
has been chosen by the commitees
to be followed throughout the ban-quet.
Committees working on the ban-quet
include: Herbert Skoglund
and Jim Young in charge of tick-ets
and publicity; Kenneth Gun-man,
Delmar Dahl, Calvin Edlund
and Paul Dubuque on the program

THE CLARION Friday, April 24, 1953
Editorial . • ■
Ed. note: The editor, who is enroute
with the Male Chorus, sent the following
from Wilmington, Delaware.)
If the last edition of the Clarion proved
one thing (I believe it proved more) it
proved that Bethel students read their
newspaper. I have appreciated the com-ments
that have come to me. Some thought
the issue exorbitant, some said they were
disappointed and others didn't believe that
certain implications were typical of Bethel
students. I would not be fair to my readers
unless I included that a number thought
the edition was quite praiseworthy, com-mendable
and enlightening. A young Chris-tian
(not the individual that wrote the
article) shook my hand and said "Amen"
to column three, page two.
Truth is what makes journalism an hon-orable
profession. As Conference Baptists
most of us believe truth to be absolute.
Yet truth is an end that is often quite
difficult to achieve. In most problems there
are a number of factors that are uncon-trollable.
It is difficult to see an entire
picture. Truth, therefore, is a goal. A goal
The matter of baseball for 1953 on Beth-el's
campus has been a controversy for
several weeks. In light of opinions held by
several students, the Student Council ap-pointed
Rudolph Forsman, seminary senior,
and Lucius Butler, seminary junior, to
make an inquiry into this matter to ascer-tain
the true reason why there would be
no baseball this year.
As a result of this inquiry, Professor
Royal Bloom, chairman of the Faculty Corn-miftee
on Athletics, presented to the Stu-dent
Council a very full and complete re-port,
including the historical background
of promotion of baseball on campus this
The following is an outline of the acti-vities
of the coach and the faculty com-mittee:
1. A notice was placed in the Christmas
issue of the Clarion of a meeting to be
held December 8, 1952, for all those inter-ested
in participating in spring sports.
Those who could not attend the meeting
were to see the coach.
2, A notice was placed in the February
6 issue of the Clarion in which the coach
explained the necessity for more interest
to be shown if there were to be spring
3. The faculty committee held a meeting
on February 9 in which they discussed and
decided upon eligibility rules. These rules
would take full effect next fall.
4. The faculty committee held a meeting
on March 9 in which they discussed the
possibility of retaining baseball this spring.
Coach Peterson informed the committee of
an existing schedule which must be can-celled
if there were to be no baseball team.
5. The faculty committee met on March
19. Coach Peterson presented a list of
fourteen names (one person had written
his name and then crossed it out) which
had been placed on the list provided on
the college bulletin board. The committee
took each name individually and found
that only three of these who could actu-ally
play and were then registered in the
college had a "C" average.
On the basis of this list and the appar-ent
lack of student response to the two
calls by the coach, the Faculty Committee
on Athletics discussed and then voted not
to have a baseball team this year.
6. Since this announcement in the Clar-ion
and elsewhere, there has been much
discussion, both pro and con, concerning
the coach, the school, and further possi-bilities
of a baseball team.
The following points need to be made
1. The committee, not the coach, made
the decision to drop baseball this year.
2. This action on the part of the com-mittee
does not affect Bethel's standing
with any organization or conference in
which they desire membership.
3. This action was based upon the ap-parent
lack of student interest in base-ball
as evidenced in lack of players.
4. It is the responsibility of the college
coach to promote varsity sports. The com-mittee
feels that the coach has done this
in relation to baseball. They feel that the
next move should have come from the
student body.
of life to be sure but also the goal of
every situation. In order to reach this end
one must look objectively at the point in
question. One must examine himself and
seek out any logic-tight compartments that
would bigot his judgment.
In order to solve a problem one must
first recognize the existence of the prob-lem.
There can be little question in the
minds of Bethel students that the last
edition of the Clarion hit upon some per-tinent
problems. The purpose of a news-paper
is to bring truth to light. The Clar-ion
is the official newspaper of Bethel Col-lege
and Seminary. It is a student news-paper.
It is financed, written, and edited
by the students. The Clarion is not a pro-motional
periodical, nor is it a devotional
publication. As I asserted in my first edi-torial,
my responsibility is to print all the
news and happenings pertinent to student
life on Bethel campus.
I recognize three mistakes I made in the
last edition. I consider my motives for
every article in that edition to be just
and constructive. However, (1) I "loaded"
the edition with "gripe" articles. Gripe
articles are good for a newspaper and for
a school but a proper balance should be
maintained. (2) I included one sentence
in my editorial concerning salaries that
should have been omitted. Also (3) I should
have included an editor's note with the
article "I was a very young Christian,"
explaining that the theme was originally
written as a creative writing theme and
although the incidents are true the end-ing
was added for effect.
Freedom must be maintained with truth.
One does not come without the other. They
are inseparable. My purpose has been to
apply the concept of American democratic
freedom to our college newspaper. With-out
this conviction, I see little virtue in
any newspaper. Like the referee at a bas-ketball
game, I call the fouls as I see
them. I am subject to error; nevertheless,
my duty is to write truth by my convic-tion.
When we realize the circumstances un-der
which it was written, we also realize
the tendency to "high light" an article
for purposes of effect.
We are sure that each of us feels the
need of growing as Christians more and
more into that fullness of stature which
is Christ Himself.
And if some of us are more mature we
will want to show sympathy and helpful-ness
to those who may be less experienced
in spiritual matters.

Roger Babson, of the Babson Institute,
Boston, used to say that there are two
schools of thought as to when civilization
started. One holds that it was brought by
the invention of the wheel; the other, by
the taming of the horse or beast of burden.
Babson says that
both are wrong. Civil-ization
came when
man found that he
could have faith in his
fellow man.
Be that as it may on
the human level, we
know that the person
who towers in the old
Testament is the man
who believed God and
it was counted him for
Dale Carnegie emphasizes the need for
faith in oneself. "Do the thing you fear
to do and your doubts and fears will van-ish."
"All merit comes from braving the
All glory comes from daring to
Then it is surely true that faith in our
fellow man is important. We trust the
driver of the bus, the pilot of the plane,
the engineer on the train—with our very
lives. Ninety-percent of all business is done
on credit.
But the faith that is basic is the faith
in God. Just as the sun's rays give light
in the very shadows so the faith in God
makes possible the other faiths.
When we step out on God's faithfulness,
we find it solid. "Wherever the sole of thy
foot shall tread,—that have I given thee."
Note the past tense. It is done. All we
need to do is to step out, to appropriate.
.2etteu die
Dear Editor,
I believe that there were some errors
and some incorrect analyses in the editor-ial
on baseball in the last issue of the
First, the coach did not—nor can he—
drop baseball. This action can be taken
only by the faculty committee on ath-letics.
Second, there never were seventeen- pros-pective
players in attendance at any base-ball
meeting. The number that attended
the final meeting was from five to seven.
Where the number seventeen came from
will be seen below.
Third, even if Bethel were now planning
to apply for admission to the M.I.A.A., it
would not ". . . need to field five sports."
No fixed number is required.
Fourth, in the faculty committee on ath-letics
the question was not regarded so
much as a matter of eligibility but rather
as a matter of interest. We now return to
the number seventeen. Fourteen people
signed the list for prospective players.
Three more indicated directly to the coach
that they would play. There had been re-peated
and urgent notice given by the
Clarion that the program was dependent
upon adequate response. Forgetting the ex-tremely
bad eligibility standing displayed
by roughly half of these prospective play-ers,
let us examine this group. (Actually
the new eligibility code does not have full
force until September). By the time the
decision to drop baseball had to be made,
one of the group had withdrawn for phy-sical
reasons, another had left school, a
third student had indicated he would have
to drop school in the spring, another had
decided he had to withdraw for scholastic
reasons, and the coach on the basis of
past experience in other sports realized
the possibility of the development of situa-tions
which would prevent some of the
interested candidates from participating in
the sport. Of the remainder only one per-son,
who stated his experience was limited,
indicated interest in pitching.
It is true that only thirteen men appear-ed
for the first football practice. But the
CLARION forgets that all men were not
yet registered or on campus. It also for-gets
that many others had already indicat-ed
that they would appear at later prac-tices.
The analogy between football and
baseball is unfortunate in another regard.
The student body actively supports foot-ball,
but not so with baseball. Even in
the best seasons of Bethel's baseball, few
students supported the team and last year's
attendance was discouraging.
Perhaps it is worth actively promoting
a particular sport which can claim only
small player and student interest if there
are unlimited funds. But where funds are
limited and where a large portion of the
"thirteen' players cannot make a "C" aver-age
it is certainly questionable if the sport
should be promoted. The committee decid-ed
it was not worth while on the basis
of this year's facts, and I fail to see how
it could have decided otherwise.
Finally let me , mildly chide the Clarion
for not only the above-mentioned errors,
but also for the misleading picture printed
with the editorial. Only three of the five
pictured had any intentions of playing base-ball
this spring. What was pictured? A
baseball lobby?
Dear Editor,
Your edition of April 10 reached a new
low in editorial policy with the -articles,
"I Was a Very Young Christian" and
"You're Not So Hot."
Such articles may be all right for the
slush of daily newspapers but have no
place in our paper. I hope your policy
changes. Sincerely,
H. Wyman Malmsten
Dear Editor,
When I read the last issue of the Clar-ion,
I found something that seems to have
stirred up a great deal of discussion on
campus. I refer to the article entitled "I
Was a Very Young Christian."
I feel that the person whose views are
expressed in this article, is a bit mixed
up all right. But how right she is in re-gard
to "holiness" on the part of Bethel
students. If we were half as concerned
about our inward holiness as we are about
our outward show of Christianity, I think
there would be a great revival in the hearts
of students. We go through our daily and
weekly ritual and our Christianity becomes
mechanical instead of spiritual. To the
non-Christian who is looking for something
real from Christians, this cold "religion"
must be anything but impressive.
Let's see more articles of this type in
the future—articles that will stimulate our
thinking. R. L. R.
Peace ... It's Wonderful
by Berge A. Hoogasian
After last week's uproar I am led to
believe that people think I'm (a) a habitual
gripe (b) hard to get along with (c) frust-rated
(d) I've got peanuts for brains. I
categorically deny the first three. There
may be some truth in the latter.
In support of my denials I maintain that
(a) sometimes I say nice things—mostly
blarney; (b) my wife hasn't left me yet
and (c) I like it here. As a matter of fact
I think that by and large Bethelites are
the finest aggregation of collegians and
seminarians I've ever known. (I've studied
at five different colleges and universities.)
You're not perfect—but neither is any giv-en
group assembled anywhere outside of
heaven. I'll even go as far as to say I'm not
perfect—and brother, that's goin' a long
So I get a little peeved with you; so
what? You still love me, don't you? I get
peeved with my brother and he loves me.
At times he'd like to beat my few brains
out, but he still loves me.
Many of you have disagreed in various
shades of violence on my articles. I didn't
expect you to be in full agreement. There
are probably a lot of things you don't like
about my writing—or me personally. Well,
I'm going to give you a chance to get them
off your respective chests.
At some time in the near future I will
compose a column and entitle it "I'm Not
So Hot" made up entirely of your legiti-mate
complaints about me. If you'll write
them down, sign them and place them in
P.O. Box 160, I promise as a Christian that
I won't use any names of contributors and
will not reveal those names to anyone. The
writers of the ten most interesting letters
on my shortcomings will even be treated
to coffee—if I can get the Editor to fin-ance
Now I'll just sit back and enjoy the tem-porary
peace—it's wonderful!

N.C.F. Sponsors Tea for
Prospective Nurses May 6
by Jeanne Swanson
On Wednesday, May 6th, at 3:15 p.m., the Nurses Christian Fel-lowship
on campus is planning to have a Tea at the home of Mrs.
Alphin Conrad (1343 Arona St.) for all girls who are interested in
nursing. The program will elaborate in part on the information present-ed
by the Mounds-Midway nurses in chapel on April 16th, and Erma
Ruddell will tell of "Opportunities in Nursing."
- Lauralie Nelson and Beverly Patterson will present the various
factors which should be considered when choosing a school of nurs-ing,
as well as the advantages and disadvantages of the Christian and
secular school.
There will also be opportunity
for discussion on questions which
may be in the minds of some,
and for this purpose a "Question
Box" has been posted on the col-lege
bulletin board. We would like

Perhaps some of you may have
been wondering in just what acti-vities
the N. C. F. has participated
this year. Our weekly meetings
have been mostly for the purpose
of prayer, and have proved a real
blessing not only as we have re-membered
our own needs and
praises, but also the requests of
N. C. F. groups throughout the
country as related to us through
the central office in Chicago.
Beside these weekly meetings,
the Lord has afforded us oppor-tunities
for going as gospel teams
to various places as Booth Memor-ial
Home, Midway Hospital, N.C.F.,
and several "Hi-C" groups where
we have presented to high school
young people the nursing profes-sion
in both its vocational and
spiritual aspects.
In January a banquet was held
in the Bethel Dining Hall for the
twin-city area N. C. F. groups,
which concluded a two-day "con-ferette."
Hannah Plaut acted as
toast-mistress, and Mrs. Franklin
Nelson presented a challenging
missionary message.
On April 30th the St. Paul
N. C. F. will have their monthly
city-wide meeting at 8:00 p.m. in
the girls' lounge — Bodien. Jean
Larson will speak and a Bethel
quartette will sing. Again all girls
who are interested in N. C. F.
are welcome.

Schoo: Spirit Has Been
Good--Keep It Up
One of the most noticeable differences between high school athle-tics
and collegiate athletics is the varying degree of spirit and enthus-iasm
accompanying the sports. Many a sports fan would much rather
watch a high school game rather than a college athletic contest or a
professional game, where the difference is even more noticeable, simp-ly
for the spirit that is shown on the part of the crowd.
Doctors tell us that getting excited over an exhibition without par-ticipating
in the activity can be harmful to an individual because of
the chemicals produced in the body .which may be injurious to the
Bethel has no recorded cases of anyone being permanently or
even temporarily handicapped by such a malady but Bethel athletes
have certainly felt and heard that the fans were behind them.
Several of the outsiders visiting our games have commented to
members of the staff and the team concerning the fine spirit of the
fans and the students at Bethel and it is a credit to our school.
>Let's keep it up. It's a vital part of 'our" athletic program.

Royals Place 8th
In Carleton Relays
Last Saturday Bethel entered
the Carleton relays and finished
in next to last place. Paul Nyberg
and Don Stipe did the placing to
give the Royals 2 3/5 points.
Nyberg failed to place in the
shot put, but took a neat fourth
place in the discus with a throw
of 116' 11/2". Stipe pole vaulted
for the first time in four years
and reached the height of 10' 6".
He tied three others for fourth
place. Also putting the shot was
Jim MacFadyen. High-jumping for
Bethel were Howard Johnson and
Harold Erickson.
Al Christensen qualified for the
finals in the 100 yd. dash (doing
the distance in 10.6 seconds), but
failed to place when the final heat
was run. Ford Wilson ran a neat
mile and ended up eighth amongst
sixteen participants.
The Royals also entered two re-lay
teams. In the sprint medley
relay the team consisted of Jim
Coleman running the 440, Al
Christensen and Harold Erickson
each running 220 yds., and Ford
Wilson running the half mile (880).
The 880 yd. relay team was com-posed
of Al Chris, Harold Erick-son,
Norman Moore and Jim Cole-man.

New York, March 19, 2009--The Committee to Protect Journalists called today for an immediate investigation into the March 18 death of an Iranian blogger imprisoned in Tehran's notorious Evin prison.
Omidreza Mirsayafi's lawyer,
Muhammad Ali Dadkhah, told the UK's Times
Online that prison officials told him that his client had committed
suicide. Dadkhah said that before his death, Mirsayafi
Mirsayafi, 28, whose
writing appeared on the now-defunct cultural blog, Rooznegar,
"We are alarmed by
the sudden death of blogger Omidreza Mirsayafi and demand an immediate,
transparent investigation into what happened," said
Mirsayafi was arrested in April 2008 and
charged with insulting the fouding leaders of the Islamic Republic and denigrating
Islam, according to a local organization called Human Rights Activists in Iran
(HRAI). An Iranian blogger told the Times Online that the reason
for Mirsayafi's imprisonment was linked to an entry he had
written in which he questioned
Iranian-American freelance journalist Roxana Saberi is currently being held in Evin prison. She has been detained since late January. Iranian-Canadian blogger Hossein Derakhshan has also been detained since November 2008, but his whereabouts remain unknown. At least five Iranian journalists, not including Saberi and Derakhshan, were serving time in various Iranian prisons as of December 1, 2008, according to CPJ research.
"Mirayafi's death greatly increases our concern for Roxana Saberi's well-being," Abdel Dayem said.
Editor's note: The original text of this alert has been charged to correct the last name of the victim, Omidreza Mirsayafi.

Watch Your Wallets, Protectionism is Back!
Protectionism is on the rise all over the world, thanks or should we say "no thanks" to the global economic crisis. Last November, G-20 leaders pledged to fight protectionism. Yet, according to the World Trade Organization (WTO), 18 out of these 20 economies have since taken measures to restrict trade. With the global economy struggling to recover, political pressures demanding protection from import competition to sustain domestic employment are intensifying. It is likely to prove right the old adage that the only thing we learn from history is that we never learn from history. One lesson from the experience of the 1930s that is currently most relevant is that raising trade barriers deepens and prolongs recession.

Protective Atmosphere Gases Preserve Food Freshness Characteristics
Air Liquide America Specialty Gases Aligal gases are designed for use as Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) to benefit a wide variety of food products.
Aligal protective atmospheres help preserve the natural color and flavor of fresh food by promoting low impurity levels and extending shelf life without using chemical additives or preservatives. Aligal inhibits spoilage due to oxidation, bacteria and mold growth that usually occurs when food is exposed to air.
By preserving the freshness characteristics of foods, Aligal food-quality gases empower food processors and retailers to:
- Reduce product returns
- Gain greater flexibility in production scheduling
- Improve product consistency
- Control inventory more effectively and economically
- Distribute products over greater distances
- Improve opportunity for branding of value-added products
Aligal gases meet all food packaging standards and are offered in dedicated single and multiple packs of high-pressure cylinders. Cylinders feature Air Liquide's SCANDINA cap that improves safety during cylinder transport and use, as well as valves that are factory shrink wrapped to provide tamper-evident safety seals. Chrome residual pressure valves prevent back flow into the cylinder to prevent accidental contamination.
Aligal gases are available in a range of blends appropriate to specific foods including baked goods, dry foods, fresh raw meats, processed meats, dairy products, produce and various prepared foods. They are colorless and odorless and comply with procedure controls and quality assurance throughout the production process. Strict filling and testing procedures assure a consistent and quality product. Aligal products can be easily integrated into a MAP system that includes packaging equipment and film.

3D-ICs with through silicon vias (TSVs) provide a large number of technical benefits in terms of the electrical performance, e.g., higher I/O bandwidth, shorter interconnect length, lower power consumption and better signal-to-noise ratio. The shorter interconnect length allows focus on one device function per layer, e.g., memory on one layer and logic on another layer. In the past, high-performance devices had to be designed and manufactured with the system-on-chip (SoC) approach. A SoC provides very good performance, but this comes at the cost of a very high design complexity. Chip stacking with TSVs enables devices with the highest performance within the system-in-package (SiP) family. Compared to SoCs, which require "re-inventing the wheel" with each device, with SiPs it is possible to follow a true modular design approach. Each company can focus on its device core competence, e.g., an ASIC or MEMS, and add standardized components like memory or logic controller from other suppliers.
Vertical interconnects enable a smaller form factor not only laterally, but also vertically. Stacking of dies allows working with smaller dies, which increases the wafer yield. Even more important is that stacking of dies enables heterogeneous integration. Silicon dies can be bonded to dies made of gallium arsenide (GaAs) or indium phosphide (InP).
There are many different integration and manufacturing schemes for 3D interconnects. One way to categorize the different integration schemes is by the orientation of the individual dies to each other. Figure 1 shows face-to-back (F2B) and face-to-face (F2F) integration. F2F integration does not require TSVs, whereas TSVs are required for F2B integration. For 2-layer chip stacks, both integration schemes have some advantages and disadvantages (Table 1). For multi-layer stacks, F2B has the advantage that after each bonding step the top device layer is face up so that the stacking unit process can be repeated multiple times. However, for F2B integration, the die/wafer has to have the final thickness already during stacking, as subsequent thinning is not possible.
Another, more popular, way to categorize 3D integration schemes is based on the point at which the TSV is created during the manufacturing process. In the past, the only distinction was whether the via was manufactured before or after wafer thinning: via-first or via-last. Today, it is common to further distinguish whether the via was created prior to front-end processing, i.e., via first, or after front-end processing (but before wafer thinning), i.e., via-middle. Figure 2 shows a typical process flow for via-middle manufacturing.
Another important distinction within the various integration schemes is based on wafer or die level processing: chip-to-chip (C2C), chip-to-wafer (C2W) and wafer-to-wafer (W2W). C2C has mainly been used for high performance, high margin devices. For lower margin devices like consumer electronics, C2C is not very suitable due to single die processing. Of course, W2W integration allows wafer-level processing after stacking. W2W integration gives the highest throughput and the highest alignment accuracy. But W2W integration requires that the dies have the exact same size, and it has the inherent risk that a defective die is bonded to a good die, thereby destroying the whole stack. C2W is a hybrid process and combines the single die placement with the feasibility of wafer-level processing after die placement.
With C2W integration, it is possible to stack dies of different sizes. With a modular design and chip architecture, it must be assumed that dies typically will have different sizes. Forheterogeneous integration in particular, C2W is the method of choice as currently only silicon devices are manufactured on 300mm wafers, while all other semiconductor materials are being manufactured on smaller wafer sizes. In addition C2W enables testing of every die prior to stacking, which allows true "known good die" manufacturing. Figure 3 shows the difference between C2W and W2W integration.
Fortunately, all of the described manufacturing schemes are based on only a handful of key technologies. Temporary bonding of the device wafer to a carrier wafer enables thin wafer processing, which is independent of the specific process flow.
Figure 1: 3D integrations scheme categorized by the orientation of the dies to each other; face-to-back (F2B) stacking: after stacking the top device layer is face up; face-to-face (F2F) stacking: after stacking both device layers are facing each other within the bond interface.

Table 1: Key characteristics of F2B and F2F integration
Figure 2: Via-middle process flow; The TSVs are created after frontend processing. The process flow is very similar to via-first. However, as the transistors have been already created, it is possible to use Cu or W vias.
Figure 3: Wafer-to-wafer (W2W) and chip-to-wafer (C2W) integration are most suitable for high volume manufacturing.

With the help of somebody called dopekhor I can now report that this shot was taken at the intersection of Panthapath and Green Roads!
Quote from: Chateau d If on October 16, 2012, 04:04:08 PMBut doesn't this look like somebody looking for rats?Well I agree Chateau........I dont know why anyone would have a stick in their hand on a cotton grading table unless they were expecting "something" to run out of the pile. It is not as if the raw cotton is going to attack them. Plus it looks like the short dude is "herding" something toward the tall dude. The tall dude is ready to hit something coming out of the pile of cotton.

Traveling to Bangladesh was an overwhelmingly eye opening and sense rattling experience that I will never forget. More than any other country I have...ever visited, I will forever remember the sights, sounds and smells of the capital city, Dhaka. Being the 8th most populous country in the world, and one of the highest population densities, the destitute, poverty, and filth that piled up in main streets, behind central buildings and country roads, was troubling and incredible all the same. Lacking common societal attributes that we are used to here at home, including street signals, paved roads, flushing toilets, air conditioning, and even clean water meant shock and awe throughout our short time there. But in stark contrast to the unsanitary and polluted environment the people were warm, kind, thoughtful and helpful. We felt equally safe and comforted within the community of people we met and traveled amongst. To communicate our immediate impressions accurately you could say Dhaka as a city was hell on earth but the people, the culture the community itself was the polar opposite.

Oceanside, CA (January, 3 2013) – We are excited to announce the addition of surfers Oliver Kurtz and Tanner Rozunko to the Brixton Union.
Born and raised in Vero Beach, Florida, Oliver, 22, grew up watching Florida natives like Kelly Slater, C.J. and Damien Hobgood and the Lopez brothers. Watching these riders inspired Oliver to pursue surfing himself and over the last couple of years he's become a standout in the freesurf world, recently landing the cover of TransWorld SURF and staring in Disillusion, a successful digital short by Sean Benik.
"Oliver is a very progressive surfer, from big waves to little waves, its always fun to watch him push his surfing," said Brixton Co-founder and Brand Manager David Stoddard. "He has a strong work ethic, is creative and loves to travel and we're really looking forward to working with him."
"I'm very excited to join Brixton," said Kurtz. "We have a lot of fun projects on the horizon and I can't wait to start working on them."
Brixton is also excited to welcome Tanner Rozunko to the family. Hailing from San Clemente, California, Tanner, 19, grew up surfing beach breaks around his house with locals Kolohe Andino, Luke Davis, Ian Crane and Jeremy Carter and still surfs with them everyday. Known for his creative surfing and unique style, Tanner also spends a lot of his time skateboarding and playing music.
"Tanner is everything Brixton represents," said Stoddard. "He's a natural fit and we're psyched to have such a talented person in the family."
"I'm honored to be working with such a rad company and can't wait to see what the future has in store," said Rozunko.
Oliver's sponsors in addition to Brixton include Electric, Nixon, Sol Republic, Creatures of Leisure, Sharp Eye Surfboards and Rockstar Energy Drink.
Tanner's sponsors in addition to Brixton include VonZipper, Lost Surfboards, Stance and Sector 9.
Oliver and Tanner join surfers Troy Elmore, Thom Pringle, Taylor Curran, Jeff McCallum and Jesse Steelman in the Brixton Union.

Matthew Thomas Signs With Florida State University — National College Signing Day 2013
The Florida State Seminoles have scored a major coup by signing highly sought-after linebacker Matthew Thomas.
Thomas, out of Miami's Booker T. Washington High School, was reportedly the Seminoles' top priority. After signing, he said, "I want (my family) to come see me play and support me and I think Florida State is a good place to do that. My goals are to play early, contribute to the team and do what I can to help them win."
Thomas was ranked the sixth player in the country, according to ESPN. He was also considering Miami, Alabama, Georgia and Southern Cal.
Thomas' teammate at Booker. T. Washington, Denver Kirkland, will not be heading to Tallahassee with him, though. Kirkland, an offensive lineman, will play college ball at Arkansas, as new coach Bret Bielema tries to rebuild that program.

Can you remember what you last read? Maybe traveling to work this morning. It was an interesting read but what was it about? who did it involve? can you remember? you read it whilst checking SMS on your smartphone, picking up the newspaper on the seat next to you at the same time as listening to music through your headphones. What did you husband, or wife say to you when you last spoke? Did you organise to meet a friend and discover it was the same evening as your wedding anniversary, but you'd forgot because your mind just wasn't thinking clearly; this being a real example. Can you remember birthdays if Facebook or your birthday reminder application only reminds you first?

The Gathering of Spirits, by Carrie Newcomer. Newcomer's strong, tender voice touches on the grace of everyday thingsgood soft towels, laundry hanging out to dry, eggs "frying like psalms," and the "little earthquakes" that happen as we love each other. Evil certainly exists, but Spirits is a quiet, tenacious reminder that life teems with beauty and redemption is everywhere we look. (Rounder Records)

A "greatest hits" collection of tunes from Cockburn's 30-year career that includes politically aware songs such as "The Trouble With Normal," where "Callous men in business costume speak computerese/Play pinball with the Third World trying to keep it on its knees," and the more introspective "My Beat." The song is about Cockburn's bicycle ride around his new home of Montreal, but it's also about living inand appreciatingthe here and now. (Rounder Records)

When I was a kid, my cousin had a Citizen's Band (CB) Radio, and I thought it was the coolest thing ever! He'd listen to truckers and police radios to see what was going on in town and did I mention how cool it was? Anyway, CB Radios went out of style a while ago but thanks to smartphones, their spirit lives on through the apps!
While there are many alternatives out there, today we're going to look at Police Scanner 5-0 which gets feeds of police scanners from all around the world, to see how it measures up.

Awesome. I will check the current of the other zones tonight just to double-check. If all goes according to plan, its just a matter of finding a controller that suits my needs. I really want a controller to which I can add an afforable remote control system. Hunter's ROAM (non-XL version) is the only one that fits my needs (for the price). Still trying to figure out the difference between the 6-zone PCC-600i and 3-zone PC-300i (with addtional 3-zone PCM-300 module) other than the fact that the latter is modular. From what I read, I should stay away from the X-Core controllers. Do you have any advice on controllers? I understand you like the Rainbird ESP controller. I figure a Hunter controller and remote kit should cost me $250 ballpark altogether.0.2 volts across the one-ohm resistor corresponds to a current of 0.2 amps, and that would indicate modern solenoids, and no issues with using any solid-state controller for a replacement.
The accuracy of this method depends on the precision of the resistor, and the accuracy of your voltmeter at the extreme bottom of its range. Since some of these meters could state "plus or minus two digits" or similar, when describing accuracy in detail, the values you measure may be more like ballpark figures. Still, if you were feeding two Imperial brass valves (master valve and zone valve) a current of more than an amp would be expected.
Good video. The setup was about what I'd have done. I remembered this shortcut from a long-ago exercise where the voltmeter was replaced by an oscilloscope, and the waveforms we observed were showing us the current in a circuit. You still might want to find an AC ammeter, to compare readings.
Of course, due diligence requires you get a reading for each zone, but I'd guess you're home free.

NEW YORK — Although a move in New York to license vocational schools, which include yoga teacher training schools, is being met with new legislative bills that would prevent the law from applying to yoga schools, groups such as Yoga for New York are still conducting grassroots fundraising efforts to lobby against licensing requirements.
"We will not be fully protected until the bills in the Assembly and the Senate have been brought to the floor for a vote and are signed into law by Gov. Paterson," says Alison West, chair of Yoga For New York.
Last spring, many yoga teacher training schools received a letter from the New York State Education Department that said they must suspend their training programs or be subject to fines of up to $50,000 if they did not submit to state regulations that oversee vocational training.
In response to the notice, yoga trainers organized into groups to meet and lobby against the requirements. Yoga for New York voiced concerns that yoga teacher trainers and aspiring yoga teachers would be unable to survive an elaborate, costly and time-consuming licensing process.
In early June, Sen. Eric Schneiderman of Manhattan introduced a bill (S.5701) to exempt yoga teacher training programs from licensing requirements.
In late August, Yoga for New York issued an action alert for their members to lobby state legislators and circulate petitions in their studios to encourage the New York State Legislature to pass that bill and Assembly Bill 8678A, which the group says would keep yoga free from "unnecessary government regulations and licensing."
After those bills were introduced, the Education Department suspended licensing requirements for yoga instructors, according to Schneiderman. Bill S.5701 passed the Senate Higher Education Committee and is awaiting a vote in the full Senate.
"The Education Department did the right thing by suspending these onerous, arbitrary regulations that threatened the livelihood of yoga studios throughout the state," Schneiderman said in a statement.
Several states already require licensing of yoga training schools. Other states, including Louisiana, Michigan, Oklahoma, Texas and Virginia, are considering legislation to license yoga schools.
