Thing is, just like sharks, your best protection is understanding their "habits." The second best protection for Portuguese is neoprene in the form of a wetsuit. A knife will be of no use whatsoever, as with many (most?), other forms of normal marine life except for perhaps gently pulling tentacles off your skin once you're back on shore.
From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_Man_o'_War
Portuguese man-o-war are at the mercy of the wind, where it blows, they follow along with current transport. In my area of SE Florida, they come from deepwater out in the Florida Current/Gulfstream to the east. If the wind is NE to E in winter you tend to see them more nearshore. They are rare in the warmer months. They can be blown and carried by current into sheltered bays, like Biscayne Bay in Miami. They can occur over vast areas, typically tropical but are found in temperate areas of the Atlantic like the Med, around the UK. They also occur in parts of the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
From: http://www.aloha.com/~lifeguards/portugue.html
The larger the float or bubble, the longer the tentacles. Wikipedia claims tentacle lengths up to 165 ft.!!!? I thought they maxed around 50 ft.. Anyway, you can be swimming along the bottom when literally out of the blue one of these buggers can nail you, across the face, arm, wherever. The tentacles contain small nematocysts. Nematocysts look like little harpoons, they fire embed in the fish target, or us, and inject some very painful neurotoxin. The toxin is intended to paralyze prey. For each inch of tentacle, there are a bunch of these harpoons. The larger the float, the longer the tentacle, the longer and deeper the nematocysts fire. They tie the tentacle to you and everytime the tentacle touches you, more harpoons are fired into you carrying toxin. If you struggle are washed by breaking waves it is easy to get a nasty sting. The tentacles/nematocyts stay viable even if broken or on land for an extended period of time, they still can hurt. Thin sensitive skin, your face, between your fingers, toes, arms, etc. are more vulnerable than calloused areas like the heels of your feet.
The trick with man-o-war is to know when and why they occur where you kite. In Portuguese season here (usually September through April or so), I am in the habit of looking along the beach and the seaweed line and in the shallows nearshore. If you see a bunch of fresh Portuguese there on the sand, good chance there are more where those came from floating in. If you see a lot or if you are particularly sensitive to them, best wear a full wetsuit, booties too might help. You can go in your birthday suit and there is nothing to say you'll be hit by any. The odds are just greater, any exposed skin will get harpooned, thick enough neoprene should deflect the harpoons. You always should be aware of your surroundings when kiting, right? One more thing to look for are Portuguese. If you're in the water, keep looking to windward to see if floats are heading your way. Sometimes they can move pretty fast too. Remember the tentacles stream out into the wind or current carrying them. If you are going to fall, try to do it well upwind, better still well past the float but not close by and downwind or current of it. Seaweed mats can be laced with active tentacles. If your kite goes down and portuguese sweep into your lines, they may well bind to the lines giving a nice task taking all that stinging stuff off later.
Usually, they aren't health threatening, UNLESS you get a major dose of toxin, and/or suffer an allergic reaction. Had a boat turn around during the kite race to Bimini from Ft. Lauderdale when one kiter suffered a severe reaction to a fairly minor hit on his ankle. Usually they are just painful, sometimes they can be a lot worse demanding prompt medical care. Understand putting pee and vinegar on the stings may have fallen into disfavor, go figure. See the link below. As a rule, they are fairly easy to avoid IF you pay close attention ... but, not always. Wetsuits can provide some easy "partial" insurance for lapses.

A lot of people do watersports in the Caribbean and get accidents as well. those numbers are not even registered whatsoever. only when it's fatal. as you said: use your common sense and take responsibility for yourself. i know what i wear.

New Creative Commons Licenses Released For Intergovernmental Organizations
from the no-more-excuses dept
Even though Creative Commons licenses have only been in existence for just over a decade, it's now hard to imagine the online world without them. The ability they offer to modify or even cancel copyright's monopoly has led to all kinds of innovation, and given that success (as well as one or two failures), you might think there's no need for any more CC licenses. Creative Commons begs to differ:
We're pleased to announce a new suite of Creative Commons licenses specifically designed for intergovernmental organizations (IGOs). IGOs produce a wide array of valuable information and content, ranging from scholarly and scientific papers to environmental data. Just like other creators who seek wide dissemination of their works to achieve maximal impact, IGOs benefit from using CC's well understood and widely adopted licenses.
A new license is needed, apparently, because IGOs have one or two special requirements. For those who are interested, Andres Guadamuz has a useful post on his Technollama blog explaining what's new and why. He has no doubts about the significance of these new licences:
It may be easy to miss the monumental importance of this new licence. Creative Commons has enough acceptance in the legal mainstream that it will be adopted by the likes of the World Intellectual Property Organization and the OECD. It could be argued that this might be detrimental to CC, as it shows that it is now being used by the establishment as a fig leaf to cover the deficiencies inherent in copyright protection. The reality is that this sets CC as the international open content standard, and sends a strong message that it should also be adopted by governments to release their own data. In other words, there are no more excuses not to adopt CC, and this can be used by open content advocates everywhere to answer for once and for all stupid questions about the validity of open licences.

Ravens fullback Kyle Juszczyk is now officially a Green Bay Packers fan in the playoffs.
Although he isn't a full-fledged Cheesehead, Juszczyk does have a vested rooting interest in the Packers' NFC championship game against the Seattle Seahawks.
Should the Packers win, then Juszczyk would make it to the Pro Bowl as a first alternate with Packers fullback John Kuhn unable to play because of preparations for the Super Bowl.
"I'm a big Packers fan this week," Juszczyk said. "I don't know if I'm rooting for John Kuhn, or just his team. That would be great. I would love to go to the Pro Bowl."
In his first season as the replacement for former Pro...

YORK, Pa. – The Spartans' women's basketball team travel to Dover, Delaware on Saturday, December 8 to face the Wesley College Wolverines in a Capital Athletic Conference matchup. The game is scheduled for a 1:00 pm tip time at Wentworth Gym. The Spartans come in to the game with a perfect 7-0 (1-0 CAC) record and a national ranking of #12 in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll and 14th in the d3hoops.com Poll.
This ranking does not take in to account the Spartans' most recent victory, a 26-point win over Franklin & Marshall College in Wolf Gymnasium on Tuesday night. In the game, junior forward Brittany Hicks (Dover, Pa./York Catholic) led all scorers with 24 points. The Spartans also shot 47.1% from the 3-point arc and 75.8% from the free throw line. The defense won the always-important turnover battle 22-8.
The Wesley College Wolverines come in to this game with a record of 2-5 (0-1), losing their CAC opener by 32 points at Marymount (Va.). The Wolverines' offense runs through senior guard Jazmine Miller. Her 20.0 points per game is more than double any other player for Wesley and she is second on the team in assists.
The Spartans and Wolverines met twice last year, resulting in two blowout wins for York. The Spartans traveled to Dover and beat Wesley 92-47 before returning home later in the season and defeating them in York 85-46. Last year, Wesley finished seventh in the Capital Athletic Conference with a record of 6-19 (3-13 CAC).
The Spartans have a long hiatus before their next game on Saturday, December 29 at 6:00 pm at home in the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic against the Wheaton College (Mass.) Lyons.

How do you enter a roadless area?
How do you enter roadless lands in the West? Quietly, with a walking staff, a sketchbook, a camera? Not according to the Bush administration: It enters with a chainsaw.
On Aug. 7, loggers arrived at the Mike's Gulch timber sale in the Siskiyou Mountains of southern Oregon, fired up their chainsaws, and began cutting trees. Not an extraordinary event in the timber country of the Pacific Northwest, but this is no ordinary logging show. Mike's Gulch is on the border of the Kalmiopsis Wilderness Area, and is an inventoried roadless area on the Siskiyou National Forest. This timber sale is the first logging to occur in an inventoried roadless area anywhere in the United States since Bill Clinton issued a policy protecting these areas in January 2001.
A brief history is in order. In the last 1990s, a coalition of wilderness advocates, big game hunters, salmon fishermen and research scientists convinced President Clinton that it was time to consider strong protections for roadless areas in national forests. The Clinton administration then undertook the most extensive public input process for any land-use decision in U.S. history. When it was done, over 1.5 million public comments had been received, and more than 95 percent of them favored strict protections for roadless areas. President Clinton's Roadless Rule was issues on Jan. 12, 2001, in the last week of his presidency. It declared 58.5 million acres of roadless areas essentially off-limits to road-building, logging or other development.
On his first day in office, President Bush suspended the rule and called for further review. Throughout Bush's first term, the administration continued to pay lip service to protecting roadless areas but refused to defend the Roadless Rule in court and hacked off key elements, for example by denying roadless protections to Alaska's huge Tongass and Chugach national forests. Finally, in May 2005, the administration repealed the Roadless Rule and threw the issue to the states -- but the policy reserved the final decision on roadless areas for the Forest Service chief.
In Oregon, the state's answer was immediate. Gov. Ted Kulongoski announced his intention to petition for full protection of roadless areas. He also joined the governors of Washington, California and New Mexico in a lawsuit challenging the legality of Bush's Roadless Repeal.
Meanwhile, the Forest Service had been busy planning a massive salvage logging program in the area of southern Oregon's Biscuit Fire, which burned over 300,000 acres in 2002. Ignoring a moderate salvage proposal that was acceptable to environmentalists, the Forest Service proposed instead the largest single logging plan in American history: over 500 million board feet. For the first time ever, this plan renounced protections for inventoried roadless areas and old-growth forest reserves set aside under the Northwest Forest Plan. The final plan adopted by the Forest Service approved the logging of 370 million board-feet, including over 8,000 acres of inventoried roadless areas and over 6,000 acres of old growth reserves. The Forest Service team leader who developed the rejected moderate logging plan described the underlying agenda this way: "They don't care about the [timber] volume. They want to get into the roadless areas. They want to poke environmentalists in the eye."
The Bush administration was also prepared to poke the governor of Oregon in the eye. Despite the pending lawsuit by Kulongoski and three other governors — due to be decided soon — and despite the impending November due date for the states' petitions on management of roadless areas, the Bush administration refused to wait. Logging the Mike's Gulch roadless area, and nearby in an old growth reserve, has begun.
Like the rest of us, the Bush administration must be judged by its deeds, not its words. While the words speak of states' rights, forest health and respect for public process, the deeds tell another story. That story is a tale of unwavering commitment to the interests of timber companies and other resource extraction industries. If you would speak to the Bush administration in opposition to that agenda, it makes no difference whether you are a private citizen or the governor of a state. You have no voice. Who could hear, anyway, over the whine of the chainsaws?

One of DNR's (Department of Natural Resources') largest bonehead moves was to allow a "Youth Gun Hunt" (Oct. 7-8, 2006) in the middle of the bow season. What were they thinking? Already skittish deer never showed their faces during shooting hours for the balance of the bow season! Seasoned hunters who waited and watched, only found deer at night – when it was unsafe and illegal to shoot.
Giving "youth" this "leg-up" will not encourage their future hunting; it only demonstrates yet again that "regulations" will be broken for the few, at the expense of the many. Young hunters should wait for the regular gun-deer season – a season which should be expanded beyond the current nine days!
We feed many families with quality venison; some of these families rely on our success. Three or four additional deer would have been "bagged" had the "young guns" been kept silent.
Weary of deer destroying landscaping? Going broke replanting the same flower bed every year and having to spray "Deer-off?" Tired of paying huge insurance premiums due to the enormous cost of car-deer accidents? If the DNR is supposed to be in charge of the deer population, then the DNR should be responsible for all damages deer cause. Oh sure, the DNR will build fences for "farms" but our little acre of paradise in Tomahawk is defoliated every year by deer.
Where do I send my bills?

You should host a youth gun/deer hunt. It would solve the problem of the mass destruction resulted from deer stomping all over your landscape.

Lenny Kravitz linked to George Clooney's ex-girlfriend
Rocker LENNY KRAVITZ has sparked speculation he is dating GEORGE CLOONEY's ex-girlfriend ELISABETTA CANALIS after they were reportedly spotted looking close backstage at his recent show.
The Fly Away hitmaker was performing at the 123 Festival in Ibiza earlier this month (Jul12), and he sent gossips into a spin when he was seen with Italian actress/model Canalis, who watched his set from the side of the stage.
A source tells the Mail on Sunday newspaper, "Lenny and Elisabetta arrived together and were seen looking cosy in the VIP area. They seemed to be getting on really well..."
Kravitz admitted last year (11) he has been struggling to find a girlfriend because of his hectic touring schedule, telling talk show host Piers Morgan, "I would like it to change - I think it's a good time for that to change now. My life is a bit crazy - moving around, different country every day, long tours - it's not easy to build something. (It's) extremely (hard) - it's an occupational hazard."

Information for Patients
Neck Injuries and Disorders
Any part of your neck - muscles, bones, joints, tendons, ligaments, or nerves - can cause neck problems. Neck pain is very common. Pain may also come from your shoulder, jaw, head, or upper arms.
Muscle strain or tension often causes neck pain. The problem is usually overuse, such as from sitting at a computer for too long. Sometimes you can strain your neck muscles from sleeping in an awkward position or overdoing it during exercise. Falls or accidents, including car accidents, are another common cause of neck pain. Whiplash, a soft tissue injury to the neck, is also called neck sprain or strain.
Treatment depends on the cause, but may include applying ice, taking pain relievers, getting physical therapy or wearing a cervical collar. You rarely need surgery.

Spinal Cord Injuries
Your spinal cord is a bundle of nerves that runs down the middle of your back. It carries signals back and forth between your body and your brain. A spinal cord injury disrupts the signals. Spinal cord injuries usually begin with a blow that fractures or dislocates your vertebrae, the bone disks that make up your spine. Most injuries don't cut through your spinal cord. Instead, they cause damage when pieces of vertebrae tear into cord tissue or press down on the nerve parts that carry signals.
Spinal cord injuries can be complete or incomplete. With a complete spinal cord injury, the cord can't send signals below the level of the injury. As a result, you are paralyzed below the injury. With an incomplete injury, you have some movement and sensation below the injury.
A spinal cord injury is a medical emergency. Immediate treatment can reduce long-term effects. Treatments may include medicines, braces or traction to stabilize the spine, and surgery. Later treatment usually includes medicines and rehabilitation therapy. Mobility aids and assistive devices may help you to get around and do some daily tasks.

Tombstone mystery elicits responses
Staff writer
Several readers responded to last week's tombstone mystery article published in the Marion County Record and Peabody Gazette-Bulletin. Comments from JoAnn (Stroda) Fitzpatrick and Art Vaughn shed even more light on the identity of a person possibly buried just southeast of the city of Marion.
Fitzpatrick, who used to live in Marion across the street from Jerry Dieter who owns the land where the mysterious tombstone was recently rediscovered, said she enjoys genealogy research.
"The article in the Marion Record really intrigued me, so I decided to see what I could find out," she said.
"Since the inscription was in German, it would have to be properly translated. The name on the stone, Wilhelmine Stelting b. 15 Sep 1856 — d. 3 Jul 1902, is what has sent me researching on ancestry.com."
Fitzpatrick found a Stelting family tree that showed the husband of Wilhelmine was August G Stelting, born Sept. 5, 1856 in Russia. He died July 4, 1901 in Marion. Wilhelmine (Hein) Stelting was born June 28, 1859 in Russia and died August 10, 1940 in Hillsboro.
"I found a 1900 census that listed the couple as living in Liberty Township, Marion, with their two children, Wilhelmine and Jacob," Fitzpatrick said. "The dates on the stone seem to match August G Stelting, more than Wilhelmine."
Fitzpatrick continued her search for Stelting family members further back on the family tree.
"There were 11 family members buried in Hillsboro Mennonite Brethren Cemetery, Ebenfield Cemetery, and Lehigh Mennonite Cemetery," she said. "The parents of August G Stelting are buried in the Ebenfield Cemetery, but I could not find records for Wilhelmine or August G Stelting. I presume they would have been buried in one of these cemeteries. Maybe the city of Hillsboro would have records for these cemeteries."
Marion County Record reader Art Vaughn said he noticed a mistake in the German translation from the tombstone and said the identity of the deceased was not a mystery.
"The word 'gate' is properly spelled 'gate' and 'Vor' possibly von, means 'spouse of'," Vaughn said.
"This would mean the marker is not Wilhelmine's marker, but that of her husband August."
Vaughn's research indicated that Wilhelmine Hein, the wife of August Stelting, was apparently born in 1859 in the Don Settlement in Russia. She died in Hillsboro.
August's parents were August Stelting — 1832-1920 — and Renathta Foth — 1834-1907. They also died in Hillsboro.
Vaughn said there were two children born to August and Wilhemine, Wilhelmine born 1884 and Jacob born 1892.
"How accurate this research is, is hard to say," Vaughn said.
"But I believe it to be the same person on the tombstone, as the date of birth, name, and spouse's name are just too much the same to be a coincidence."

Last week we were very excited to welcome the Class of 2017 to campus, and we're glad they're here! They already have one week of law school under their belts: they've survived Orientation, learned the topic of their LSSC Social Justice project, and met their professors for Civil Procedure, Property, and Torts. It's going to be a great semester!
As summer fades (slowly – it's 88 degrees today!) into fall, we in the Admissions Office are shifting gears and heading into recruitment season. Our recruiters will be traveling to just about every corner of the country to chat with students who are interested in learning more about Northeastern. (Are you interested in learning more?) To find out if we'll be coming to a town near you, be sure to check out our Recruitment Map.
If you live in Boston or are planning on visiting soon, you'll definitely want to sign up for a campus tour or class visit. We'll also be hosting a Prospective Student Information Session on Thursday, October 9th from 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM.
We look forward to meeting you soon!

Product Description:
Super-thin powerhouse with a colorful 3.3" OLED touch screen. Its 18.2MP sensor and 5X optical/10X Clear Image zoom lens capture sharp pictures and AVCHDTM 1080/60i videos. High Speed AF improves focusing speed and accuracy, while Picture Effects and 3D Sweep Panorama modes expand creativity.
18.2MP Exmor R CMOS sensor - The 18.2MP Exmor R CMOS sensor captures ultra-high definition images that take full advantage of the camera's sharp Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens. The sensor enables advanced processing that reduces noise levels resulting in stunning low light images with incredible details.
Slim and stylish design - At just over 1/2" thin and only 3.3 oz, this stylish camera is the perfect size to take with you almost anywhere. Slip it into a pocket, purse, or backpack and be ready to shoot memorable moments.
High speed AF - To improve focusing speed and sensitivity, the Exmor R CMOS sensor uses its rapid throughput to deliver high-quality image signals to the camera's BIONZ processor, which provides intelligent response data to a new high speed actuator motor in the lens. The result is fast, DSLR-like focusing speeds even in low light.
Full HD 1080/60i - Record crystal clear movies at the highest resolution available with capabilities for 60i in 1080 AVCHD video.1 This provides stunning, fast motion video with less distortion for playback on your HD TV.2 With dual record of stills and movies, you can shoot both at the same time.
Optical zoom plus Clear image zoom - Most digital zooms use electronic cropping to get closer to the subject, resulting in unsharp images. With Clear Image Zoom the powerful processor compares patterns found in adjacent pixels and creates new pixels to match selected patterns, resulting in more realistic, higher-quality images. Clear Image Zoom doubles optical zoom for closer photos.
Capture the decisive moment with up to 10fps - Capture full 18.2 megapixel resolution images at up to 10 frames per second, helping to ensure that the decisive moment is captured such as the soccer ball flying into the goal. In addition, a mechanical shutter helps reduce distortion when continuously shooting moving subjects.
Optical SteadyShot with Active Mode - Optical SteadyShot with Active Mode for blur-free movies even while walking.4 Camera-shake compensation using Optical SteadyShot/Active Mode has been improved with the addition of new electronic image stabilization.Now it's easier than ever to obtain sharp, blur-free movies even when zooming in unsteady situations, such as shooting with one hand while walking.
3D still image and 3D Sweep Panorama mode - Produce awe-inspiring images with 3D still image and 3D Sweep Panorama capabilities.3 Photos will take on a new dimension of creative capabilities for viewing the world in a whole new way.
Picture Effect - Picture Effect adds a new level of expression to photos, making ordinary landscapes and portraits come to life by heightening mood and emphasizing certain attributes. Select models have up to nine effects.
Photo Creativity - Photo Creativity allows you to fine-tune your exposure settings, such as brightness, color, and vividness, and quickly choose the right enhancement for your subject. Now you can view Picture Effects and Photo Creativity effects in real time on the camera's monitor or in the viewfinder before shooting.
Background Defocus - DSLR photographs are often beautiful because they blur the background, putting the emphasis on the subject. Now our point-and-shoot cameras can deliver this signature DSLR benefit. The system takes two shots, identifies the background and applies a defocused background keeping the subject crisp and clear.
Superior Auto mode - Get cleaner, more dynamic pictures and fewer missed shots. The camera automatically recognizes the correct scene mode, then quickly shoots and combines up to six shots to produce images with greater clarity, optimum dynamic range using backlight correction HDR technology and lower image noise using 6 shots layering technology. Superior Auto intelligently detects 36 scenes for still images and movies, making it easy to get the best shot.
Face Detection technology - Face Detection technology detects up to eight individual faces and adjusts focus, exposure, and white balance to help deliver crisp, properly lit images of family and friends.
Smile Shutter technology - Smile Shutter technology captures a smile the moment it happens. Simply press the Smile Shutter button and the camera does the rest. You can also select adult and child priority and indicate the degree of Smile Detection sensitivity. Intelligent Scene Recognition can be used together with Smile Shutter mode when the Intelligent Auto mode is on. This means that beautiful smiles can be captured with settings optimized for the particular scene, even in difficult conditions such as twilight and backlighting.
Anti-blink function - It's frustrating to capture the perfect shot, only to review it later and discover subjects blinked during the photo. The Anti-blink function works to help counter blinking and squinting. When the camera is set to Soft Snap, the Anti-blink function captures two images, recording only the photo with less squinting. If a blink is detected in other shooting modes, a warning will be displayed after you take the shot.
Soft Skin mode - Portrait subjects will love the results. Soft Skin mode recognizes skin tones and reduces the appearance of blemishes and wrinkles without affecting the rest of the shot.
Intelligent Scene Recognition mode - Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode automatically detects 36 different types of scenes and selects the appropriate camera settings. iSCN has two modes: Auto and Advanced. In Auto Mode, the camera takes a single shot using the optimal settings. In Advanced Mode, the camera takes a photo with the optimal settings and, if in difficult lighting (low light or back light) immediately takes a second photo with another optimized setting so you can choose which to keep.
Natural Flash - Conventional point-and-shoot camera flash shots just don't capture colors the way the eye sees them. Natural Flash controls the white balance of both the background and main subjects.
Motion Detection - Motion Detection, along with Face Motion Detection adjusts ISO sensitivity and increases the shutter speed when movement is detected, reducing blur in moving subjects and faces.

Bethel Collage, Arden Hole, MN April Fools, 1979
Job Corps controversy explodes into active threats
A week of peace and bright
hope for the future because of the
seeming resolution of the Egypt-
Israel conflict and the lull in far-east
fighting was marred on the
local scene by several boarder
clashes between the firmly entren-ched
Job Corps and advancing
CFH Coalition.
Threatened only verbally until
this week, the Corps' residents are
determined to hold ground against
the multi-headed attack.
The outmanned and under-equipped
Corps defense held a
spirited defense with a fierce bar-rage
of spit wads and paper clips.
Their main line, however, is an-chored
by "Big Nellie," a decrepit
civil war cannon.
The Coalition has used raw eggs
extensively and has claimed
several strategic victories.
Perhaps the Coalition's greatest
advantage is Coalition spokesman
and legal representative Ronald
"Spidey" Rice. Rice was the ar-chitect
of the original agreement
with lame duck Rudy Perpich and
is now said to have extremely
good rap-port with Governor Al
Quie is currently considering re-questing
the services of the Na-tional
Guard to contain Big
Nellie. Rice has been spotted
several times entering the gover-nor's
mansion very late at night.
When questioned about his late
night rendezvous, Rice said, "So
what? Both me and Al can stay up
past midnight, can't we?"
Rice refused to comment on the
charges that his psychological
ploy of confronting Quie in a
super-hero suit is unethical. He
did say that all was fair in war.
"When the rights of my clients are
in jeopardy," he said, "I'll dig to
the very bottom of my bag of
tricks to win."
Although the Corps resents

As the rate of inflation soars,
money pressures for everyone
become greater. In an effort to
stay afloat, Bethel is considering
new measures to generate revenue.
Student tuition has been raised
a number of times in the recent
past. Since student complaints in
this area have been great, the ad-ministration
is looking for alter-native
ways of making money

The latest conflict occured over
a dispute on gym rights. In signing
a peace agreement last December,
Rice said, "We're pleased as
punch to have these kids move in-to
the neighborhood, as long as
they agree to let us run in the gym
at regular intervals."
Since then there has been much
discussion between leaders of the
two groups over the exact wording
of the agreement. The Job Corps

considered is pay PO boxes which
would function in a similar way to
pay toilets (also being considered).
Pay POs would also eliminate
congestion in the post office area,
since students would check their
boxes less frequently.
Another possibility is the in-stitution
of admission for chapel.
Tickets would be sold at the booth
in the PE lounge, and discounts
would be given to students who at-tend
every chapel service. Dis-counts
would also be given for

Ever since the FA annex was
completed last year, Bethel
students have had the privilege of
enjoying two valuable works of
art, although many have been
unaware of this fact.
Originally there was to be no
formal recognition of the works to
avoid the cheap commercialism
that comes with secular advertis-ing,
but due to the overwhelming-ly
positive response from the stu-dent
body, the pieces have been
recently identified and given what
I feel is proper recognition.
Of course, I'm referring to the
left (meaning west) side, and the
bottom piece of the wooden sill in
the Student Accounts window at
the Bethel banking service.
The wood itself is a mixture of
cedar, lebanon, and pine, which
was brought from the Holy Land
and given to the school by an
anonymous donor.
"I felt this gift, more than
different way. Why with all the
activities they have we'd never get

Sound of Music," the first annual
anything else I might give to the
students at Bethel, would enhance
their educations, and inspire them
to continue into greater academic
and theological truths," said the
donor, in an unpublicized press
conference last week.
"We tried to place the carvings
in an area where a great number
of students would be able to enjoy
them," explained the annex's ar-chitectural
director, "so the bank-ing
window turned out to be the
logical place."
The placement of the pieces was
influenced not only by the fact
that many students came to the
window each day but also by the
fact that under normal cir-cumstances
each student would
have more than ample time to
study and absorb the beauty of the
work while doing transactions at
the bank.
"I think it was a great place to
arrange them," commented one
bank employee. "Not only does it
give the students something to do
marigold show, and a benefit pan-cake
dinner for Rudy Perpich and
Wendy Anderson.
Rice said, "How do you expect
our kids to compete with the
inner-city basketball teams when
they can't get floor time?"
while waiting in line, but I also
think it's attracted more business.
"People stand in line to get a
look at the carvings, and by the
time they get close enough they're
standing right in front of the teller
and they then feel obligated to put
money in the bank."
The only problems with having
the carvings at the banking win-dow
have been the congestion
they have caused, and some defac-ing
in the form of finger nail scrat-ches
around the time first semester
bills come out in the fall.
Although almost everyone
seems to think the banking win-dow
is the perfect place for the
carvings, they may be rotated to
other departments so a wider span
of people have an opportunity to
enjoy the work.
Possible locations for the carv-ings

Bethel who asks why
Bethel's admissions office is really beating the bushes for anything that
will pay tuition these days, whether they admit it or not.
The trouble is, nobody knows what Bethel is. Why? Because
Bethelites don't know what Bethel is. You may say, "Bethel is people,"
but anyone who asks "Who?" is liable to leave you staring.
Socrates once said, "Know thyself." If he didn't then someone else
did. The impoitant thing is not who said it. It could just as well have
been said by Bob Snetvick from Escanaba, Iowa. But nobody knows
Bob Snetvick from Escanaba, Iowa, so that would make a poor illustra-tion
for this editorial.
At any rate, a lot of people struggle with the question "Who am I?"
today. Bethel is like that. And Bethel is people. Thus, Bethel is people
who don't know who they are.
As a result, nobody knows what Bethel is and hence the admissions
office can't admit what it doesn't know, and won't admit what won't be
admitted, whatever that means.
All this is to say that Bethel needs three things. It needs to know what
it is, it needs to know what it is talking about, and it needs to have a ti-tle.
First, to know what Bethel is, we need to know Bethel's roots. That's
jolly because roots are_ poplar these days. People wood rather leaf
through the family tree so they can bark about what relationship stems
from what.
Also, each student should memorize this introductory paragraph out
of the registration catalog:
"Bethel is a liberal college committed to an angelic Christian world
view. Libel arts learning at Bethel exhumes that students should not
themselves, blah, blah, blah...."
The staff of the Carrion has already mesmerized this portion, word
for word, as should be oblivious by the preceding paragraph. All who
do this will be able to tell perspective students exactly what Bethel is.
Second, Bethelites should know what they are talking about. They
sould be sound not only academically, but they should also be up on
currant events and have a propyl working vocabulary. Two mini students
lack basic skills in spelling and gradmar.
They should read the Carrion and be able to rescusitate portions from
Finally, Bethel needs to adapt a prominent title that will capture the
attention of the academic world. Just 500 .miles southeast of :here
Wheaton College is being acclaimed as the "Harvard of the Christian
world." Imagine the dignity of such a title for Bethel.
The Carrion proposes that Bethel be recognize as "the Wheaton of
the Christian world." Such a title would have perspective students
pounding at our doorstops. Shirley, that's what Bethel needs.

A major change to be imple-mented
is the weighing of students
in the cafeteria. Instead of
weighing and pricing individual
food items, students will be weigh-ed
before and after eating and
charged $3 for each pound gained.
In this way, the cafeteria will
gain extra revenue from students

One proposal that is surely
destined for defeat is the addition
of pay slots in the emergency exit
doors. Most administrators think
it would be too much of a hazard
for students caught without

New Spite planned,

Seconds ago the new LRC
annex collapsed into a
smoldering pile of debris.
There were no fatalities, but
several tons of bricks and
girders trapped Food Pro-cessor
Kracher Graham in a
large steam kettle.
Unconfirmed reports say
the cause of the collapse may
have been faulty colloring in
some strategic tiles on the sup-porting
mosaic. One construc-tion
worker was heard moan-ing,
"I know green would
have held better than brown, I
know it would."
"It's terrible," sobbed one

by Woozy "frog" Sells
Plans are now being made for
the publication of Bethel's first
decabook, the Spite. The Spite
will replace the old yearbook and
will cover ten years rather than
"Based on past experience with
the yearbook, we felt that we
would need ten years to meet all
our deadlines," explained editor
Debbie Johnson. "Besides, we
want to cover all the years that
were missed when the Spire didn't
come out."
"I think the Spite is a great
idea," commented one student.
"It will be something we can show
our kids and our grandchildren
after we leave Bethel."
At present, the Roster and
Passages take the place of the
yeatbook. These publications will
continue, however. ,The Spite will
be "an extra treat," Debbie said.
"The Roster and Passages just
don't capture the spirit of Bethel
the way the Spite will be able to,"
she added.

Rapid recurrent beats have

Backgammon game
instituted as sport
A new, but well-known sport at
Bethel has finally received enough
financial backing to become a var-sity
The new varsity backgammon
team, comprised of veteran
players who are yet rookies in
interscholastic competition, has
hopes of taking on well-established
teams from scholarly
schools such as Staferd and Harv-ing.
"We have a team that can
without a doubt play with some of
the best players in the country,"
said athletic director Cub
Renaldo. •
"These players, although never
recognized as a varsity team, have
put in a considerable amount of
practice in the past year."
There are some strict require-ments
for the team, and this will
limit those allowed to participate.
A team member must first of all
be a physical education major, or
at least have entered the weight
room • sometime this year with
serious intentions.
The player must also not have
any commitments during chapel,
since practices are held at this
time. A player finally must have
above average concentration
abilities, because all of the mat-ches
are held in coffee shop at-mospheres.
"We haven't got a coach yet,"
said self-appointed manager Mary
Jo Karousing, "but we think that
the combined experience of all the
players will make up for whatever
advice a coach could offer."
Mary, who has relinquished her
third-base position on the softball
team to devote all her time to the
backgammon team, added that
the team could use some enthu-siastic
"We hope to get the fans ex-cited
about this new sport. It's not
as boring as it looks," she said,
"and despite what you've heard,
it's not difficult to understand. In
fact, I don't think anyone has
bothered to read the rules yet."

Did you know that Dimple,
Pimple and Simple were the

Their real names were Debbie

strange circumstances, their nick-names

their physiques.

The group has divided itself in-to

always in the coffee shop, either
studying or otherwise.
In contrast, Pimple's diary had
one entry, "There is no social life
at Bethel... there are no men here,
only boys."
But Pimple's apparent lack of
social life did not deter her from
indulging in other acts. Her
friends have proven beyond a
shadow of a doubt that Pimple
organized and led all the raids on
the Edgren boys. She struck such
terror that her floor (3rd floor Bo-dien)
was never raided.
And Dimple, after her first Nik

with her MRS degree to bother
about social life. She usually
studied in the library with some
"man" of her choice.

If the alternatives amount to nothing: get a spare HDD and clone the old disk to it. If it keeps crashing on the clone, it's a software error, or hardware issues unrelated to the HDD. Try a fresh install in this case. If it doesn't crash anymore on the clone, the old disk has simply gone bad.

An apparent power glitch in the Metro-North signal system stopped trains systemwide Thursday evening, forcing thousands of commuters to wait inside trains or at rail stations for hours as crews worked to fix the problem, the MTA says.
The power to the computer system that controls all Metro-North train movements was interrupted at 7:45 p.m., forcing all trains on its Hudson, Harlem and New Haven lines to a stop, according to the MTA. It's not clear what knocked out the power.
Trains were taken to the nearest stations, where riders were allowed to exit if they wanted.
"We were stuck on the train. They didn't tell us anything, and then we stopped 100 yards from the platform," said Brian McDonald of New Canaan.
McDonald's train ended up back at Grand Central Terminal, where he and thousands of other frustrated commuters packed into the main hall to wait for service to come back.
Power was restored to Metro-North signals shortly before 10 p.m., and trains started returning to service with delays, the MTA said. Trains were running normally Friday morning.
All trains had power, heat and light while they were stopped, according to the MTA.
The failure is the latest in a string of headaches Metro-North riders have faced recently.
On Wednesday, 200 passengers on a New Haven-bound train from Grand Central got stranded in Westport when a downed wire cut off power. And a power failure in October left tens of thousands of commuters on the New Haven line scrambling for alternative plans for nearly two weeks.
A deadly crash in the Bronx in December exposed safety issues, and earlier this month, president Howard R. Permut stepped down.
Serving 281,000 riders a day in New York and Connecticut, Metro-North is one of the nation's busiest commuter rail lines.

House at Forest Manor set up her Dicken Village. Look at the Church, isn't it spectacular and wait until you see the whole village. Amazing.
I love hoosier cabinets ( remember I am using mine as a desk in the guest bedroom), well just look at how fabulous this one looks all dressed for Christmas. I love the crocks and look at the stunning quilt. Be sure to go check out Salmagunde's blog to see all of it and let Sally show you all the detail.
There is so much inspiration on this buffet. Look at the plaid bows and the urns are so beautiful with greens and ornaments, how about the stack of silver trays, and then look how she has Christmas tree plates in the picture frames. I love it all. Opulent Cottage has such a knack for turning the simple into stunning.
Isn't this just total amazing. The gate is fantastic and the vignette is gorgeous. I love the wreath, stars, twig reindeer, pinecone trees and the ice skates are just the frosting on the cake. Absolutely love it all. Be sure to visit Daisy Mae Belle to see all the closeups and all the detail.
Exquisite is the only word I can think of to describe this fireplay vignette. The swag and wreath are so lush and fabulous and the stocking are wonderful french grain sacks, plus look at the lanterns and that deer. So beautifully done. Be sure to visit Barb at The Everyday Home. She has some of the most beautiful decor, you will definitely leave drooling.
This is the perfect vignette to end with. This Nativity is exquisite. Be sure to visit An Extraordinary Day, to see all the pictures. So beautiful.

ISTANBUL (Reuters) - A Turkish prosecutor accused police on Thursday of obstructing his pursuit of a high-level graft case, adding to public scrutiny of Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan's government as it hunkered down defiantly.
Three ministers had resigned after their sons were among dozens of people detained on December 17 as part of the probe into corrupt procurement practices, which has exposed Turkey's deep institutional divisions and left the pugnacious premier facing arguably the biggest crisis of his 11 years in power.
Erdogan responded by replacing half his cabinet with loyalists on Wednesday while investors took fright, and the lira currency fell further on Thursday to an all-time low.
The new interior minister, Efkan Ala, will be in charge of Turkey's domestic security and is considered especially close to Erdogan, who called the secretive investigation a foreign-orchestrated plot without legal merit and responded by sacking or reassigning some 70 of the police officers involved.
In allegations disseminated to Turkish media in writing, prosecutor Muammer Akkas said he had also been removed from the case, which he described as compromised by police who had refused to comply with his orders to arrest more suspects.
"By means of the police force, the judiciary was subjected to open pressure, and the execution of court orders was obstructed," Akkas said.
"A crime has been committed throughout the chain of command ... Suspects have been allowed to take precautions, flee and tamper with the evidence."
The statement did not name any of those accused.
The government and police did not immediately respond.
Turkish chief prosecutor Turhan Colakkadi said Akkas had been removed from the case for leaking information to the media and failing to give his superiors timely updates on progress.
Such regulations, tightened at the weekend on government orders, incense Turks who see an authoritarian streak in Erdogan and took to the streets in mass-protests in mid-2013.
"Erdogan has a deep state, (his) AK Party has a deep state and Efkan Ala is one of the elements of that deep state," said Kemal Kilicdaroglu, head of the biggest opposition party CHP, using a term which in Turkey denotes a shadowy power structure unencumbered by democratic checks and balances.
The High Council of Judges and Prosecutors, a Turkish body which handles court appointments independent of the government, added its weight to the criticism.
The latest requirement that police investigators keep their superiors informed amount to "a clear breach of the principle of the separation of powers, and of the Constitution," the council said in a statement.
During his three terms in office, the Islamist-rooted Erdogan has transformed Turkey, cutting back its once-dominant secularist military and overseeing rapid economic expansion.
But his response to the scandal has drawn a European Union call to safeguard the independence of the Turkish judiciary.
It has also rattled markets. The lira plumbed a record low of 2.1282 against the dollar at 1540 GMT on Thursday while stocks fell and government bond yields rose.
"The dismissal of half an entire cabinet is worrying enough. The corruption probe is escalating by the day, causing a further deterioration in market sentiment towards Turkey," said Nicholas Spiro, head of Spiro Sovereign Strategy.
At an Interior Ministry handover ceremony earlier on Thursday, Ala said Turkey might have been targeted by neighbors jealous of its successes.
"When these developments are sustainable, attacks from various centers on the political stability of the country is not unexpected," he said, without elaborating.
For Erdogan, the scandal is potent and personal.
It lays bare his rivalry with Fethullah Gulen, a U.S.-based Turkish cleric whose Hizmet (Service) movement claims at least a million faithful including senior police officers and judges.
One of the three cabinet members who quit on Wednesday, Environment Minister Erdogan Bayraktar, broke ranks by urging the premier to resign too. The Turkish leader, facing local elections in March and a national ballot in 2015, was unmoved.
Vowing no tolerance for corruption, Erdogan said on Wednesday the graft case had been tainted by foreign interests.
"It would not be incorrect to say that, with this (Ala) appointment, Erdogan has personally taken the reins of domestic affairs," Sedat Ergin, a columnist with the mass-circulation newspaper Hurriyet, told CNN Turk television.
Unlike the rest of the 20-member cabinet, Ala is not a lawmaker and thus does not answer directly to a constituency.
In his previous post as undersecretary of the prime ministry, political sources told Reuters, he urged a crackdown on the unprecedented summer demonstrations the swept major Turkish cities. Six protestors and a policeman were killed.
"Who would you trust other than your undersecretary, with whom you have been working closely for years?" said one government source, who characterized the new ministers as "surprise" picks in line with Erdogan's desire for fresh faces.
