Dynamic Metropolitan Opera Basso
Appears In First Artist Series Event
Jerome Hines, an imposing figure and leading basso with the
Metropolitan Opera Company, comes to Bethel Monday, October 10, as
the initial offering of Bethel's 1966-1967 Concert Series.
Jerome Hines, leading basso of the Metropolitan
Opera and a leading Christian performer, arrives
at Bethel next Monday, October 10, to inaugurate
the newly-created Bethel Concert Series with an
evening recital at 8 p.m. in the Fieldhouse. The
performance is the first of four musical events
brought to the campus this year under the new
Concert Series plan.
Hines, an imposing performer physically as well
as vocally with a six-foot-six-inch height, is expected
to perform on Monday in the manner long enjoyed
by his recital patrons. He sings traditional art songs
and oratorio selections on the first portion of the
program and then appears in costume for the second
half to portray directly the characters he is repre-senting
with favorite operatic arias.
The final section will feature the Death Scene
from Moussorgsky's "Boris Godounov," a work
that is a distinct part of Hines' reputation and
which he has performed throughout the globe,
including appearances at Moscow's Bolshoi Theater.
The singer will also feature arias from other
pieces identified with him, probably including "Don
Giovanni" and "The Barber of Seville." His repetoire
of art songs also adds to his fame, and in recital
he particularly pleases his audience by adding ges-tures
to give wit or dramatic potential to the rendi-tions.
Now on his annual concert tour of the United
States, Mr. Hines also is celebrating his twentieth
anniversary as a Metropolitan Opera performer and
will soon return to the New York City house to
give luster to its first season at Lincoln Center.
Among the operas in which he is singing are "Tristan
and Isolde," "Lohengrin," "Aida," "La Boheme," and
"The Magic Flute."
During the past summer Mr. Hines travelled
across the opera world, especially playing roles
in Naples as the title character in Boito's "Mefisto-fele"
and in Buenos Aires in Verdi's "Attila."
As a devoted Christian, the operatic star is a
long-time supporter of the Salvation Army and
similar mission enterprises in large cities. He often
sings for these groups.
Currently he is near completion of his religious
opera, "I Am the Way," based on the life of Christ.
Parts of the work have been performed for a num-ber
of years, and the full score and staging will
be ready for presentation at observances of the 150th
anniversary of the American Bible Society.
The musical artist studied originally toward
an M.A. degree in chemistry while taking voice
lessons on the side. It was evident even before he
received the B.A. diploma however that he might
not enter a chemistry laboratory full-time.
By that time he had sung at the Hollywood Bowl,
where he was winner of the Young Artist's Competi-tion,
and with the Los Angeles Philharmonic also.
He continued operatic performances while pursuing
his graduate work, and had gained two dozen roles
in his repertoire by the time he won the Caruso
Award to join the Metropolitan Opera Company
in 1946.
In the intervening years he has appeared at
Glyndebourne, Bayreuth, and most of the other
great international festivals, has sung with most of
the major orchestras in the United States, Europe
and South America, and has recorded a number of
albums for both the London and RCA Victor labels.

speaker for Tuesday, October 1,
at 9:45 a.m. is Dr. Emma Birk-maier,
offering Bethel students
and faculty a look into the educa-tional
systems of the Soviet Union
which have so often proved a spur
to the initiation of new school
policy within our nation. Dr. Birk-maier,

titles her address simply
"Education in Russia."
Dr. Birkmaier herself is acquaint-ed
with the educational systems of
several nations. Born in Munich,
Germany, she nevertheless receiv-ed
her first degree in higher edu-cation,
a B.A., from the nearby Col-ledge
of St. Catherine in 1928. She
received M.A. and , Ph.D. degrees
from the University of Minnesota
in 1938 and 1949, respectively.
Later studies took her to Mexico
and the University of Innsbruck,

Editorial Staff Requests
Student-Faculty Reaction
Good afternoon, campus community. This is your editor
speaking. I'm addressing you from the head desk in LLB
CLARION office via the upper left hand corner, page two of
October 5's CLARION.
Now that you have begun your cruise through the school
year 1966-1967 at Bethel College there are a few things I'd
like to speak to you about. You have been here almost three
weeks now. For some of you, this is your first trip. For others
the trip has almost become routine.
In any case, you will be with us for the better part of
nine months. I'm sure you have all been here long enough
and had enough experiences at Bethel to begin to formulate
certain opinions. There have been two CLARION issues
published containing some editorial, opinion-type writing.
I'm sure you must have reacted in some measure.
What do you think of your classes, your professors, dormi-tory
restrictions, the cafeteria, chapel speakers, chapel in
general, convocations, the football team, campus spirit, the
prevailing anti-intellectual attitude among students (girls in
All right, so you do have some opinions. The pOint I want
to make is this: Don't just seal them within yourself or at best
share them with only a few friends. Get them in print if you
feel they are worthy opinions! The CLARION wants to hear
from you. Write us when you react. We will publish your
letters. This plea is extended to both the faculty and student
Now, you may think such a request a bit strange, but
we feel it all goes back to the basic purpose for publishing
a campus newspaper like the CLARION. That purpose is
primarily communication. But communication in two re-gards:
first as a basic news medium to inform you of hap-penings
in, around, and to the Bethel community, and second
as a forum for interaction between administration, faculty
and students.
We on the CLARION staff are doing our best to uphold
the first half of the bargain by informing you. We only ask
that you give us a chance to make the other half worthwhile
as well.
New College Newspaper
Meets Intercampus Void
As is customary in the newspaper profession, it is our
privilege to welcome a new newspaper, NATIONAL COLLEGI-ATE
WEEKLY, to our fold. Their advertisement with sub-scription
information will appear in next week's CLARION.
It is our feeling that a national college publication has
been a long time in coming. Certainly there is a need for
closer communication in the broader college community. All
too often we become so confined by our own college boundaries
that we lose sight of those around us.
Again, welcome NATIONAL COLLEGIATE WEEKLY.

Steinbeck Survey's America's Perils,
Finds Salvation In Our Restless Spirit
The Anoka one-to-one project is
a unique venture testing a new
therapeutic technique with pat-ients
in the Anoka State Mental
Hospial. Aimed at providing long-term
friendships between student
volunteers and mental patients,
the project depends entirely on
student participation.
Opportunity for participation is
open only to students of Bethel
College and Hamline University.
The only requirement is an aver-age
interest and concern for peo-ple.
The goal of the project is to
help strengthen the personality of
the patient by contact with "nor-mal"
persons and to show a genu-ine
concern for his welfare.
The project requires regular
attendance once a week for a-bout
three hours on any day
that suits the participant's
schedule. However, once a day
is chosen, the same weekday
must be continued throughout
the program. The cost for trans-portation
will run in the neigh-borhood
of forty cents.
During the hour spent with the
patient, many facilities are avail-able—
games, records, or just a re-laxed
atmosphere for friendly con-versation.
An orientation meeting October
20 will be held for all students in-terested
in participating in the
program. Attendance at the meet-ing
does not necessarily obligate
anyone to enlist his participa-tion.
A party with the patients Oc-tober
27 will initiate the project
with weekly visits beginning Oc-tober
31 and continuing until
May 8. Three meetings will be
held during the year at which
time all participants will discuss
their experiences.
Organized in 1950 and sponsored
by the American Friends Service
Committee, the project is headed
by Dr. Gary Collins, Assistant Pro-fessor
of Psychology at Bethel,
and Dr. Donald P. Irish, Professor
of Psychology at Hamline Univer-sity.
Any further information regard-ing
the project can be obtained
from Dr. Collins by either an ap-pointment
with him or through his
post office box, number 59.

A searching look at America's
turbulent past, her troubled pres-ent
and her uncertain future is
taken by famed author John Stein-beck
in the October issue The
Reader's Digest.
He concludes that, though faced
with perils which have destroyed
previous societies, America will
survive because of her basic rest-lessness
and energy.
The dangers that confront us,
says the famed writer who has
won both a Nobel and a Pulitzer
prize, are those which in the
past have been "most destruc-tive

This overabundance has come
upon us so suddenly that we've

it, Steinbeck asserts. "Almost un-limited

the place of straining muscles and

compared with the lack of it."
"We are in the perplexing per-iod

"We seem to be running in all

As to what prompted the plot of each one of
the plays written by these authors, it varied with
the playwright. Turner said that "It varies, some-times

Mr. Dale Rott, speech professor at Bethel, attended
a religious drama workshop in Minneapolis this past
summer. Playwrights from several different countries
were present at this yearly, international affair.
Mr. Rott interviewed three of the religious play-wrights
to get their views on the future of religious
drama. He interviewed Mr. Phillip Turner, who is
known for his play, "Christ in the Concrete City,"
Mr. Don Mueller, author of "Eyes upon the Cross,"
and Eve McFall, who wrote "The Case Against Eve."
Mr. Rott put the question before these three
playwrights of whether or not they felt "the Holy
Spirit was an inspiration to them in the writing of
their plays."
Mr. Turner, who was a priest in the Anglican
church and is presently the head of the British
Broadcasting Corporations religious area, and is
known as "The" religious drama playwright, said
that he felt his writing was a "Gift of God, a calling
that I was called to do."

Page 4 the CLARION
by Dave Anderson
After two frustrating scoreless
games, the Royals struck early Sat-urday
enroute to a 33-22 victory
over Lakeland College of Sheboy-gan,
Following the opening kick-off
by Fred Swedberg, a fired up
Bethel defense held Lakeland and
forced a short punt. From here it
was short work for the Bill Eng-lund
led offense to score their first
With Dave Moss and Lee Pear-son
lugging the ball and a cou-ple
of well tossed passes to
loosen up the defense the stage
was set for Al Selander to break
the ice on a seven yard run up
the middle.
This early strike was what the
Cox-coached boys needed. On the
ensuing kick-off, the Big Blue tried
an onside kick. It worked to per-fection,
with Jim Brand snaring
the loose ball in midair and ad-vancing
with it to the thirty yard
line of Lakeland.
In again came Englund and crew.
Mixing up his plays superbly, Bill
brought the Royals down to the
five yard line. From here Pearson,
the freshman fullback, bulled his
way into the end zone to raise the
margin to 12-0.
Then the defense took their
place again, and rose up to the
occasion by stopping the Lake-land
offense. Following the
coach's instructions to not let
the punts roll down field, Tom
Swanson picked up the short
punt on the first bounce to give
the ball to Bethel on the oppo-sition's
Sparked by a key reception by
Larry Peterson the Royals were
again on the move, when the whis-tle
sounded ending the first per-iod.
On the first play of the second
canto, Englund crossed the double-

stripe from one yard out. Larry
Peterson followed by splitting the
uprights to give the Blue and Gold
a 19-0 lead.
However, Lakeland was not
about to take their football and
go home. The white clad Mus-kees
came back on a seventy
yard march to bring the score
to 19-7. The payoff play came
on a ten yard pitch from the
quarterback Riffey to his split
end Ealing, who just slipped
over the goal with Ron Harris
clinging to him.
The next score came when Bethel
attempted to quick kick from deep
in their own territory. The kick
by Bob MacDonald was blocked
and recovered by Bethel in the
end zone for two points for Lake-land.
Thus went the scoring in the
first half. As the teams departed
for their halftime instructions the
score stood, Bethel 19, Lakeland 9.
After the Royal's defensive
eleven held Lakeland at the
start of the second half, the of-fensive
machine went back into
action. This time Englund chose
to take the Blue into paydirt via
the air. His target on the four
Last Saturday at Hamline Stad-ium,
the Bethel harriers put their
running skills on the line against
Hamline and St. Thomas. The meet
was held before a capacity crowd
during half time of the Hamline-
St. Thomas football game.
It consisted of eight laps around
the track, a distance of two miles.
The Royals compiled 42 points for
a second place finish behind St.
Thomas. St. Thomas scored 32
points while last place Hamline
finished with 50.
Five of Bethel's participants fin-ished
in the top twelve. Steve John-son
again was the first man to
finish for Bethel, taking fifth, with
a time of 11:08. Rich Swanson,
making his Bethel debut, did a re-yard
scoring flip was John Car-mean.
The PAT was again kicked
through by Larry Peterson.
Inspired by a Homecoming crowd
and aware of the fact that they
hadn't lost a Homecoming game in
twenty-seven years, the Lakeland
eleven came right back. This time
it was a thirty-six yard run by
their fine freshman tailback Cur-ran.
Now the score stood 26-15.
After changing goals at the quar-ter,
Euglund brought the victory
hungry Royals in for their fifth
and final tally. This score was set
up with an interception by Ron
The final twenty-four yards
were traversed through the air
on an Englund to Selander pass.
Then for the third time of the
afternoon Larry Peterson booted
the pigskin over the goalpost to
mount the score to 33-15.
Lakeland rallied for one more
TD before the final gun, but the
outcome had been decided. For the
first time in twenty-seven years
Lakeland had lost a homecoming.
The final tally read Bethel 33,
Lakeland 22: the Royal Express is
markable job for the Royals, fin-ishing
Steve Roe took ninth, Dave Har-ing
was tenth, Dave Moulton was
eleventh, and Ron Stone held down
the twelfth position. Bethel's other
runner, Ken Minnis, finished eight-eenth.
St. Thomas won the meet on the
strength of a first, third, and
fourth place finish. However, the
harriers from Bethel, as has al-ready
been cited, dominated the
remainder of the top positions and
showed great improvement over
last week's running.
Bethel's third meet is slated for
the Como Park course this coming

Well, fans, it had to happen — and it finally did. The
Bethel gridders not only got on the scoreboard Saturday, but
they did it in Royal style, trimming Lakeland 33-22. After
being led astray by the "pied" Pipers of Hamline and playing
Custer to Sioux Falls' Braves, the Royals made Hiroshima look
like a vesper service with Saturday's 33-point explosion.
Believe me, fans, this team has got more punch than Joe
Louis, but until this game they looked more like Floyd Patter-son
every time they crossed the enemy's 20-yard line. Still,
the scoring potential was there. Soph quarterback Bill Eng-lund
can throw the ball farther than the average Bethel lunch
line, while frosh fullback Lee Pearson rips through the oppo-sition
as if he were participating in a Sadie Hawkins Day chase.
The other backs are faster than a Bethel co-ed on her
first Nig Dag and harder to catch than a Como Park bush-whacker.
The ends have more moves than a Pentecostal
preacher and the interior linemen at times act as if their
father's name were Gibralter.
Offensively the team can show more explosiveness than a
Leonard Sammons news conference. The defense has been
more tenacious than a Scottish bloodsucker.
But there have been problems. The passing attack has
shown capacity to throw the long bomb, but, like the U.S. Air
Force, too often it hits the wrong side. In addition, the pass
protection at times has fallen apart faster than second-sem-ester
chapel attendance, and overall play in the first two
games has been drastically inconsistent.
This Saturday the game is here against Northland, and
fans, it is a game you can't miss. The Lumberjacks will have
less chance than a bicycle in the Daytona 500, with the Bethel
boys showing them less pity than a biased dorm council.
The defense will spread terror faster than the Viet Cong,
giving up yardage like the Bookstore gives out free samples.
Now that they know where the end zone is, the offense
should continue to score like blazes. Any plan to stop it will
have to involve more steps than that of Campus Crusade.
Yes, fans, the afternoon could seem longer to Northland
than the proverbial SPBC skirt length. Be on hand to watch
the fun.

Patience, warmer soil temperature and correct lawn maintenance will improve spring lawn problems common in North Florida.
Patience, warmer soil temperature and correct lawn maintenance will improve spring lawn problems common in North Florida.
Some dead spots in spring lawns arise from something that happened the previous growing season or winter. For example, late application of high-nitrogen fertilizer can decrease chances of winter survival.
Avoid fertilizing after September. If you insist on fertilizing a warm-season grass after September, use low-nitrogen fertilizer.
A late infestation of insects or disease during fall often goes unseen as the grass begins to go dormant.
Poor maintenance the previous growing season may contribute to declining, thinning areas in the lawn during spring. Over-watering, shallow watering � watering frequently for short periods � mowing too low, over-fertilizing and herbicide injury the year before can result in poor lawn performance the following spring.
Regardless of the cause, lawns� problem areas are slow to recover in spring because of frequent cool night temperatures that keep the soil temperature or root zone cool.
Have patience with your lawn and follow effective maintenance practices this spring.
Consistently warmer nights will allow soil temperatures to warm, which improves turf root growth, nutrient availability and lawn recovery.
If your lawn has not made a comeback by late spring or early summer, replant dead, declining areas.
Whatever you do, do not use lawn maintenance practices that do not work in Florida and contribute to your lawn�s demise.

15 Really Useful Kitchen Items for Your Favorite Cooks Un-Gift Guide 2008
Here is our roundup of Really Useful Things for the kitchen — items that are not trendy or specific to this season, but classic and perpetual good ideas. They are all very useful, practical, and inexpensive, and we think that any one of them would make an excellent gift.

We call these "Un-Gifts" because they don't really fit the idea of a fancy or impractical gift. They are plain, practical, and useful. Some of them, though, are still things that people don't think to buy for themselves but will enjoy enormously once they have them — our idea of the perfect gift.
- Cast Iron Skillet This Lodge cast iron skillet is a timeless classic. Inexpensive, endlessly practical, lasts forever. Every cook should own one or two. $15.95 at Lodge.
- Oven Thermometer Make their oven more functional. An oven thermometer is the perfect stocking stuffer for a baker. $6 (or less) at Amazon or your local grocery store.
- Chef's Knife This Victorinox chef's knife is a killer deal, and a great knife too. Ours is going strong; it's a wonderful knife. $22 at Amazon.
- Glass Storage Containers We are moving all our leftover and fridge storage containers from plastic to glass, gradually. These sturdy, attractive glass storage containers would make practical gifts. $5.99-$7.99 at The Container Store.
- Porcelain Ginger Grater We use our ginger grater all the time — it's useful for garlic too. $3.95-$9.95 at The Wok Shop.
- Chinese Cleaver These cleavers are so awesome — cheap, sharp, and long-lasting. We would love to unwrap one of these on Christmas morning! Prices range, but our favorite is only $10.95 from The Wok Shop in San Francisco.
- Tiffin Lunch Pail A new lunch box is always a good gift, especially when it's as classy and cool as this one. $9.99 at World Market.
- Perfex Pepper Mill At $80 this is a little more expensive than most of the things on this list. But we love its classic shape and heavy weight; it's an heirloom-quality pepper mill. $80 at Sur La Table.
- Dutch Oven Another slightly higher-ticket item, but sure to be well-loved. We use our Dutch oven probably every other day. It's a $40 model from Target, and it still looks great. The one pictured here is $52.99 at Target.
- Japanese Mandoline Oh how we love this mandoline, which we also received as a gift. It makes short work of onions, fennel, carrots, and other vegetables that need to be shaved thin. It's a wonderful tool, but one that many cooks don't think to buy. $23 at Amazon.
- Heat-Resistant Spatulas We always want more spatulas; we reach for them constantly. Here's a very pretty Le Creuset set for about $30 at Amazon, but we would probably prefer these Lehman's spatulas for $3.95-$6.95 apiece.
- Slow Cooker Want to encourage a friend to cook at home more often? Buy them a slow cooker! We think these are the perfect tool for busy city cooks. Hamilton-Beach 5-quart programmable slow cooker, $39.99 at Amazon.
- Microplane Zester We use our Microplane all the time; it's the best way to zest lemons and other citrus, and we love creating soft piles of Parmesan cheese with it too. 2-Piece Microplane set, $27.50 at Sur La Table.
- Stainless Steel Bowls with Lids We have tons of bowls in our cupboards. Guess which ones we use? The two stainless steel mixing bowls. They are almost never in the cupboard; they are either in the fridge or the drying rack. This is a very practical and economical gift: 5 nesting stainless steel bowls with tight-fitting lids for $14 at Amazon.
- Wooden Spoons Wooden spoons are a classic gift — beautiful in their simplicity and functionality. They can be $2 spoons from Crate & Barrel, or heirloom, handmade spoons from Jonathan's ($18-$20).
That's our list! Do you have other ideas for practical and long-lasting kitchen gifts?

13. Manny Machado becoming a franchise player
In baseball, a statistic exists that essentially measures a player's total contributions to his team. The statistic WAR (wins above replacement) takes into consideration baserunning, batting, fielding and pitching. Naturally, aces litter the list of the league's top WAR statistics, with pitchers like the Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw and Boston's Clay Buchholz among the leaders. However, nestled comfortably in the top five is a 20-year-old standout, in Orioles third baseman Manny Machado. Machado has not only hit everything in sight thus far this season, but has manned the hot corner with the prowess of a 10-year veteran. Catch a game at Camden this summer and you're sure to hear the Yards erupt in a chant of "MANNY, MANNY, MANNY."

Mali's coup leader arrested
BAMAKO, Mali (AP) — The military strongman who led last year's military coup in Mali was arrested Wednesday and charged with kidnapping, hours after he was forcibly escorted from his home in the capital by soldiers.
The development indicates that the government of Mali's newly elected president is not afraid to stand up to Gen. Amadou Haya Sanogo, who led the March 2012 coup and is accused of systematically torturing and executing soldiers who questioned his rise to power.
"Sanogo has been inculpated for complicity in kidnapping. Right now that is the only charge," said the country's chief prosecutor Daniel Tessougue, who was reached by telephone on Wednesday. "He could be charged with other crimes later."
Sanogo's spokesman, Lt. Mohamed Boua Coulibaly, confirmed that the general had been taken by force from his residence earlier in the day by a unit of soldiers sent by the ministry of defense.
Despite stepping down and handing control to a civilian administration, Sanogo remained a powerful force in Mali for much of 2012, and many believe he was calling the shots.
In August, the country held its first election since the coup, electing a new leader whose administration has not shied away from confronting the powerful and much-feared Sanogo.
On Oct. 31, a judge issued a summons calling for Sanogo to present himself before the court to answer questions regarding his alleged role in the abuses. Sanogo repeatedly failed to show up. The judge who had issued the summons reportedly received death threats, and was given a security detail for his protection.
Most Malians had never heard of Sanogo last spring, when a mutiny broke out at a military garrison, located just miles from the presidential palace.
The rioting rank-and-file soldiers asked Sanogo, then an army captain, to be their leader, and together they marched on the palace, ending two decades of democracy in a matter of hours. The country's elected leader fled, and Sanogo appointed himself president.
Although forced to step down just weeks later, he still held the reins of power, and the country's transitional leaders were afraid to cross him.
In May, protesters allied with Sanogo broke through the security cordon at the presidential compound, and beat interim leader Dioncounda Traore. He was brought to the hospital unconscious, and demonstrators were seen hoisting his bloody tie and shoe in celebration.
Although Sanogo denied involvement in the attack, it was seen by many as Sanogo's reminder to the country's civilian administration of who was really in charge.
Soldiers that didn't bow to him were picked up, tortured and killed, according to Human Rights Watch. Victims were tied up, beaten with sticks and gun butts, kicked in the head, ribs and genitals, stabbed in their extremities, and burned with lighters, according to the rights group.
Witnesses who were among the last people to see the disappeared men alive — including a group of 20 soldiers picked up on May 2, 2012 — said they saw them being loaded onto trucks, their eyes covered. The mother of one of the missing men told Human Rights Watch that her son made one last phone call to her, saying the soldiers holding him were arguing about whether or not to kill him.
Among the perks Sanogo was able to secure for himself before fading from the limelight was the salary of an ex-head of state, estimated at more than $8,000 per month, as well as the rank of general.
"The Malian judge and judiciary have shown that no one, not even a four-star general, is above the law. This is a very encouraging step for the victims of the alleged crimes committed by those loyal to Sanogo and for Mali's struggle to address the culture of impunity," said Corinne Dufka, a senior researcher for Human Rights Watch, who has led 10 missions to Mali to investigate allegations of abuse since the start of the country's crisis.
Callimachi contributed from Dakar, Senegal. Associated Press staffer Jerome Delay in Bamako also contributed to this report.

From ZineWiki
Revision as of 16:22, 10 May 2011 by Joshmedsker (Talk | contribs)
Warning was a zine created by Frank Harlan in 1982, in Anchorage, Alaska. It was the first punk zine in Alaska. It ran until the Fall of 1986. During this time, Frank and his cohorts interviewed some of the best known punk bands of the day, including Black Flag, FEAR, DRI, and Suicidal Tendencies (and help bring the last two bands up to Anchorage in the mid-80s). Most importanly, perhaps, Warning was the mouthpiece for the growing local music scene in Anchorage, featuring interviews and show reviews from local legends such as The Clyng-Onz, Psychedelic Skeletons, and Skate Death. Frank has since moved to the Pacific NW, where he started Bombshelter Videos. [[External Link: [1]]

Rizzo homers, drives in three to beat Wainwright
CHICAGO -- The Cardinals' Adam Wainwright came to Wrigley Field as the "hottest pitcher in the league," riding a 25-inning scoreless streak. He was unbeaten in his career at Wrigley and looking for his Major League-leading sixth win of the year on Friday.
Anthony Rizzo and the Cubs denied him on all counts.View Full Game Coverage
CHICAGO -- The Cardinals' Adam Wainwright came to Wrigley Field as the "hottest pitcher in the league," riding a 25-inning scoreless streak. He was unbeaten in his career at Wrigley and looking for his Major League-leading sixth win of the year on Friday.
Anthony Rizzo and the Cubs denied him on all counts.View Full Game Coverage
Rizzo hit a solo homer and a two-run single and Welington Castillo added a two-run double to back Travis Wood and power the Cubs to a 6-5 victory over the Cardinals.
"You've just got to give some credit to the Cubs hitters today," Wainwright said. "They put some tough at-bats on us and Wood threw a good enough game to win the game."
Wainwright, who was 6-0 against the Cubs at Wrigley Field before Friday, had faced the Cubs in St. Louis on April 12 and picked up the win despite serving up seven hits.
"He knows hitters," Cubs manager Rick Renteria said of the veteran right-hander before the game. "This is a championship-type pitcher. Not a whole lot riles him. Hopefully we can put together good at-bats and get him to get the ball up in the zone and do the best we can."
The Cubs did just that. Wainwright entered the game with a National League-best 25 scoreless-inning streak, one shy of his personal high, but Chicago ended that in the first. Emilio Bonifacio led off with a single and Luis Valbuena doubled, with both scoring on Rizzo's single to right.
The Cardinals tied the game in the second on Matt Carpenter's RBI single and Jhonny Peralta's RBI double, but with one out in the Cubs' third, they loaded the bases and took a 3-2 lead on a run-scoring groundout by Ryan Sweeney. Castillo followed with a two-run double for a 5-2 cushion.
It was very un-Wainwright-like.
"Early two runs and then that's it, a double-play ball [to end the first] and I'm thinking in my brain, 'That's all they're getting,'" Wainwright said. "Next inning, second and third, no outs, get out of that, we score two runs, and I'm thinking, 'Back in the game.' And to go out and give up three runs is very unlike me, and to just hand the game back over is something I normally don't do a whole lot of."
Yadier Molina doubled with one out in the Cardinals' fourth, and he scored one out later on Starlin Castro's throwing error.
Rizzo lead off the fifth with his fifth home run, and his second in as many games. The first baseman had homered and walked four times on Wednesday against the Reds, and he was 2-for-3 on Friday. He's now batting .404 (19-for-47) at Wrigley this year, and the key has been to keep things simple.
"He's made a very conscious effort of trying to control the strike zone," Renteria said of Rizzo, who batted .233 last season. "With two strikes especially, he's been really battling. He's just trying to not do too much. He choked up and just tried to put the barrel on the ball -- he's a very strong man. If he puts the barrel on the ball with a decent swing, he can hit the ball out of the ballpark."
Said Rizzo: "[Wainwright's] stuff is so good, if you try to do anything more, he'll eat you alive. Fortunately for us, we got to him."
Rizzo, who was the one who called Wainwright the hottest pitcher in the NL, complimented hitting coach Bill Mueller with the improved approach.
"Bill's done it, he did it for a long time," Rizzo said of Mueller. "He knows how to calm myself down personally and other guys. It's not just mechanical, but he deals with the mental side as well."
"That's what happens when you gain experience," Renteria said. "He's been really conscious about changing his approach."
Wood notched his fourth quality start, giving up two earned runs over seven innings. Justin Grimm walked Carpenter to open the eighth and served up a two-run homer to Peralta. One batter later, Sweeney caught Allen Craig's fly ball on the warning track in center, but he had to leave the game with a sore right hamstring.
The nicest aspect of the game for the Cubs may have come in the ninth as Hector Rondon, a Rule 5 Draft pick last year, pitched a scoreless inning for his second save and the Cubs' first at home in three opportunities. The Cubs don't have a designated closer; Rondon has had the most success.
"It was big for me, second time to close the game, second time against these guys," said Rondon, whose other save came April 11 at St. Louis. "The team, we needed the win today."
The Cubs went 9-17 in the first month of the season, and they were eager to turn the calendar.
"Obviously, we're still chipping away at little things that we need to do better," Renteria said. "All in all, we're not quitting, we keep playing. ... We need to continue to go out there and play good baseball."
The Cubs went 7-12 against the Cardinals last season, and now are 2-2 this year. They know how good St. Louis is. They just don't want to hear about it any more.
"With all due respect to that team, they're a great ballclub, but we're a pretty good team, too," Rizzo said. "It's just about scoring runs when we have the opportunity to."

This over-the-top pretencious album is just tooo huge, titanic and monstruous. Eclectic messages about pretty much everything, glorius, mystified lyrics that occassionaly sound a bit "cheesy" along with a couple of infamous, experimental tracks like "Infinity" where a famous greek acctress yells "I am, I am to come. I was." while having an orgasm + one 19 min spectacular non-listenable mixed track. Everything a bombastic cult album needs is here and stuck together in 1, 18 hours of 1970's rock spectacle.
...and - I really hate Biblical references in music but sometimes, when put in right perspective and from a safe distance, mixed with lots of humor it can acctualy work as a pure concept and as pure musical pounding entertainment.
This is considered to be the very first "concept album" and one of the greatest achievements of the genre ever by the way.
A Greek band of the late '60s and early '70s, Aphrodite's Child scored only one European hit, "Rain and Tears." Though it was a big one, the group became little more than a trivia answer after keyboardist Vangelis PapathanassiouChariots of Fire
The band began to record their crowning achievement late in 1970: a musical adaptation of the biblical Book of Revelation, entitled 666. Silver Koulouris, having finished his Greek army duty rejoined the band. However, relations between all the band members were not good at the time, and continued to worsen during the album's creation. dropped his surname and hit number one with the theme to in 1981.
Essentially, 666 was Vangelis' concept, created with an outside lyricist, Costas Ferris. The music that Vangelis was creating for 666 was much more psychedelic and progressive rock oriented than anything the band had done before. This did not sit well with the other band members, who wished to continue in the pop direction that had brought them success. Furthermore, Roussos was being groomed for a solo career, and recorded his first solo single "We shall dance" (with Sideras on drums), and his first solo album On the Greek side of my mind, whereas Vangelis recorded the score for L'apocalypse des Animaux and worked on a single with his girlfriend Vilma Ladopoulou, performing with Koulouris using the pseudonym "Alpha Beta".By the time the double LP 666 finally came out in late 1971, and having sold over 20 million albums[1], the band had already split.

SQL Server often provides several ways to accomplish a task. To choose the best technique for your situation, it helps to brush up on the differences between various options. In this series, I compare and contrast some similar SQL Server features that I'm often asked about. This month, I compare user-defined functions (UDFs) with stored procedures and HAVING clauses with WHERE clauses. Enjoy the article and please send questions or topics you'd like me to cover to [email protected] I look forward to your feedback!
UDFs vs. Stored Procedures
UDFs and stored procedures are both SQL Server objects that store one or more T-SQL statements in a single named, executable routine. Although you can often implement the same or similar functionality using either a UDF or a stored procedure, the code will look significantly different depending on which technique you choose. Here are the main differences between UDFs and stored procedures:
- A UDF must return a value-a single result set. A stored procedure can return a value-or even multiple result sets-but doesn't have to.
- You can use a UDF directly in a SELECT statement as well as in ORDER BY, WHERE, and FROM clauses, but you can't use a stored procedure in a SELECT statement.
- A UDF can't use a nondeterministic function such as GETDATE(), NEWID(), or RAND(), whereas a stored procedure can use such functions. A nondeterministic function is one that can return a different result given the same input parameters.
- A UDF can't change server environment variables; a stored procedure can.
- A UDF always stops execution of T-SQL code when an error occurs, whereas a stored procedure continues to the next instruction if you've used proper error handling code.
Both UDFs and stored procedures can perform well, depending on how you write the code. To determine whether a UDF or a stored procedure would yield the best performance in a particular implementation, you should do performance testing.
HAVING vs. WHERE
You typically use the T-SQL HAVING clause along with the GROUP BY clause to search or sort based on a certain condition. But when you don't use GROUP BY, the HAVING clause acts like a WHERE clause to filter the results that a query should return.
You can use the WHERE clause in SELECT, DELETE, and UPDATE statements, but you can use HAVING only in a SELECT statement. However, HAVING can contain an aggregate function, such as COUNT(), whereas WHERE can't.
The following two queries illustrate the WHERE and HAVING clauses:
USE AdventureWorks
--Return records that have an
--OrderQty greater than 20.
SELECT SalesOrderID, OrderQty
FROM Sales.SalesOrderDetail
WHERE OrderQty > 20
--Return records that have an
--OrderQty greater than 20 and a
--total SalesOrderID greater
--than 9.
SELECT COUNT(SalesOrderID)
TotalSalesOrderID, OrderQty
FROM Sales.SalesOrderDetail
WHERE OrderQty > 20
GROUP BY OrderQty
HAVING COUNT(SalesOrderID)
> 9
The first query uses the WHERE clause to return all records that have an OrderQty greater than 20. The second query then uses the HAVING clause with the COUNT() function to further filter those results, returning only records that also have a total SalesOrderID greater than 9.

Sunday 10/27
AM only SCY
"CASC Invitational Day #2"
400 swim
8x50 @ :10 rest odd: kick/drill, even: drill/swim
4x25 @ :10 rest V.S.
I really only entered this as a throwaway event to be able to "race" before the 200 BR (which was near the end of the meet) and fatigue myself a little to try and race tired in the 200. I also never really swim backstroke, but this WAS a lifetime best by 1.5 seconds.
Not at all upset with this time right now. I definitely felt the fatigue in my legs from the 100 BK and from training in general. However, my stroke felt smooth for at least the first 150. I had some poor turns (including a hand slip, streamline collapse, and mistimed stroke count to turn), but definitely think I am due for a great 200 BR when I taper in December.
800 assorted warm-up/warm-down
Total: 2300
It was also tough warming up/down for events after the meet got started because this pool is just an 8 lane venue with a side "therapy" pool. No lines, MAYBE 15 yards long, and total chaos when 30 people are trying to use it at the same time. I did get in a proper 500 EZ during the 10 minute break which came 30 minutes AFTER I swam the 100 BK! I had no proper warm-up before both events though.
Saturday 10/26
AM only SCY
800 (300 swim/100 kick w/ board)
600 (200 pull w/ buoy + strapless paddles + snorkel/100 kick w/ board)
400 (100 swim/100 kick w/ board)
200 I.M. drill
5x100 @ 1:20 smooth D1-5 (1:10, 1:07, 1:04, 1:01, :58)
Total: 2600
Only had time for 45 minutes of swimming before I had to get the college team ready for a meet this afternoon.

Massively successful 1960s puppet show Thunderbirds is getting another shot, with a new series. But will it have puppets?
A fansite for Thunderbirds creator Gerry Anderson (titled Fanderson) is reporting that on the BBC Radio 5Live show creator Anderson confirmed that he has finalized a deal to make new Thunderbirds series.
All Anderson could say about the project is this, "I don't want to sound conceited, but because I'm going to make it... I'm confident that it will be a smash hit!" Which is understandable, since he has signed a confidentiality agreement with the BBC. BUT - the big question still hasn't been answered. Will there be puppets? And will the world embrace puppet theater once again? The people making the Muppet movie are certainly banking on the world's nostalgia for puppets, but Thunderbirds had a very different look. Our guess is the whole thing will be CG, which would be sad, hopefully it won't go that route.
Thunderbirds follows an International Rescue team who traveled the world in their various boats, submaries, spaceships, and planes righting the wrongs and saving the day. They were like team James Bond for kids. If the world can embrace the puppets from Team America, then perhaps the G-rated Thunderbirds have a shot?

Last fall, the Tales Studio died. Things were bleak. But chin up, Tales fans. There's a new Tales game in the pipeline.
The latest issue of Japanese magazine Jump has a teaser for the "next" Tales game. The article states, "Next Tales of..." and calls this a "next generation Tales".
There's not much info, though. The game's platform is TBA — ditto for its release date and price. All we know is that Namco Bandai Games is making it and that it's a role-playing game. At this point, that's all we need to know.

I've been feeling for a while now that my blog has been a little lacking. I suppose I'm in a bit of a rut with it, as I've not really been giving it much of my time, so I'm just posting my regular weekly 'standards' and not much else. There's loads I want to blog about, but I never quite pull my finger out to do it, so I'm very glad to have been given a little push….
I have long since loved the wonderful Rosalilium blog, hosted by the gorgeous Elizabeth. We have stacks in common and I really enjoy her writing. So, when Elizabeth announced she'd be hosting a blog-every-day-challenge for May, I thought that was just the perfect thing to get me back into the swing of things!
Blog Every Day in May is just what you'd expect from the name….Elizabeth challenges fellow bloggers to post every day for the entire month of May, and has thoughtfully come up with a new topic for every one. It's super easy to sign up on her blog and then you can just download the scheduled topics from her special Google calendar. I love the idea that the project will build a little community as we all encourage each other and get to know each other through our posts. My fiance Adam is also taking part on his blog, and I look forward to finding lots of new blogs to delve into too!
So, why not take on the challenge yourself?

1 dead, 1 missing in stunt plane crash in China
BEIJING (AP) — A U.S. stunt pilot was missing and his Chinese translator dead after their aircraft crashed into a lake in China's northeast on Tuesday, state media reported.
The accident involving David Riggs took place about 1 p.m. on Tuesday outside Shenyang, the capital of Liaoning province, the official Xinhua News Agency said.
Xinhua said Riggs had been flying a high-performance Lancair plane that had been assembled at a local airport. It said rescuers were still searching for Riggs while an investigation into the crash was under way.
Riggs' website listed him as a Hollywood stunt pilot, movie producer and holder of several world aviation speed records. It said he became the first American to fly from a Chinese military base since World War II during the 2010 China International Air Races.
Calls to the Studio City, California, offices of Riggs' Mach One Aviation Inc. were answered by a message saying it was unable to connect to voice mail.

In an early glimpse into tech earnings, tech giant Oracle (NASDAQ:ORCL) beat the Street late Tuesday with an 18% jump in fiscal second-quarter profits amid strength in its software business.
Continue Reading Below
Shares of the technology behemoth climbed almost 2% after-hours action, building on a solid gain during regular trading.
Oracle said it earned $2.58 billion, or 53 cents a share, last quarter, compared with a profit of $2.19 billion, or 43 cents a share, a year earlier.
Excluding one-time items, the company earned 64 cents a share, trumping the Street's view of 61 cents.
Total revenue grew 3% to $9.1 billion, compared with consensus calls from analysts for $9.02 billion.
Redwood City, Calif.-based Oracle is the first large technology company to report quarterly results, giving investors an early look at how the industry fared ahead of the fiscal cliff.
Second-quarter performance was "strong and broad based as all geographies reported double-digit revenue growth in new software license and cloud subscriptions," Oracle President Mark Hurd said in a statement.
Oracle said its software license updates and product support revenue grew 7% to $4.3 billion, while new software licenses and cloud software subscription revenue soared 17% to $2.4 billion. Overall, software revenue rose 10% to $6.65 billion.
On the other hand, hardware systems revenue dropped 16% to $1.32 billion, hurt by a 23% tumble in hardware systems products sales. Hardware support revenue declined by a more modest 6% to $587 million.
Oracle's shares rose 1.49% to $33.35 in after-hours action, putting them on pace to build on a year that has seen them rally 28%.

Christian Dior
It was a somber audience that struggled through crowds of TV crews and onlookers on the street outside the Musée Rodin to see John Galliano's final collection for Christian Dior. The tragic circumstances that have rocked this house are well known, but the show was going on, without the designer, for the first time since he was hired in 1996.
Though it was a show stripped of all of Galliano's predilections for showmanship, wildly exaggerated hair and makeup, and camp, insider references, there were beautiful things on the runway. Galliano's imprimatur was fully there in the theme: the English Romantic poets and all their spin-offs, in the way of early-nineteenth-century capes, coats, knickerbockers, and fragile dresses. All of it looked wearable, and perfectly in sync with trends which have been emerging elsewhere this season: silk velvet in jewel colors; mannish frock coats; soft, loosely woven jackets in English bouclé tweeds.
And in the end, there was sad synchronicity and pathos here for anyone who had followed Galliano's star since he shot to fame in 1984, straight out of Saint Martins. The pretty, dusty pastel semi-sheer Empire dresses that walked out as his final contribution to Christian Dior just happened to hark back to the period of history he explored in the Les Incroyables graduate collection which first spotlit his talent.
But how to end the show without him? His last appearance on this runway—costumed in a black wig and black velvet suit to impersonate Nureyev—was at the end of his couture show in January. This time, however, a white-coated crowd of ateliers emerged from the wings: the multiskilled Christian Dior team, ushered onto the rostrum to take credit for seeing this terrible season through. That seemed fitting, and emotional—and it made for a symbolic gesture of the brand's solidity and continuance. What will happen next—who will step into this most treasured and sharply demanding of positions—is of course already open to wild speculation and gossip. But for the time being? Galliano left this house with some of the season's loveliest and most circumstantially condemned evening dresses—fashion's least likely choices to ever be worn in public.

Working with Format Files
When you bulk import data into a SQL Server table or bulk export data from a table, you can use a format file to store format information for each field in a data file relative to that table. A format file provides a flexible system for writing data files that requires little or no editing to comply with other data formats or to read data files from other software. SQL Server 2005 supports two types of format files: XML formats and non-XML format files.
The topics in this section describe how to create format files. The section also presents examples of format files modified for use in bulk-import operations when the fields in the data file do not correspond exactly to the columns in the table.
In This Section
Contains information about using the bcp utility to create a default format file for a table.

Mickey and Paul Franson do not seem like the law-breaking type. They are church-going folks. She, 55, teaches special ed. He, 54, is a high school PE teacher, football coach and deacon.
But on a recent sunny morning, the Deerfield newlyweds propped a ladder against a dinky old shed in La Grange's Gordon Park, intending to climb to the roof, to their chimney, to deface property.
That is, until the fire chief arrived.
"Uh-oh," Mickey, who was halfway up the ladder, giggled down to her husband, who was holding the base. She scrambled down, and the fire chief informed them the roof was off-limits; they conducted practice burns in there, and it wasn't safe.
The couple nodded and apologized, sheepish like kids, like they might have reacted had they been caught 35 years ago, which was when Paul first stood on that dinky shed's roof and scrawled across the chimney bricks, with aluminum paint that still reads clear as day: "MICKEY YOU ARE THE GREATEST."
That was in 1977, during a summer break from college when the 20-year-olds first fell in love. Mickey and Paul have returned to the chimney several times since. It's where Paul wrote "Will You Marry Me?" in black marker and, on the brick below, Mickey responded "Yes!" It is where they got married three weeks later, in a rooftop ceremony that so surprised the neighbors that they called the police.
But several decades passed between the first chimney graffiti of their youth and their chimney engagement on June 26, 2011. They each married different people, had children, got divorced.
Gazing at each other, which they do often and adoringly, Mickey and Paul seem astonished that they were led back to one another.
"How many of us get a second chance to do it again?" said Paul, who teaches at Downers Grove North High School and is a deacon at Hobson Road Community Church in Downers Grove.
The pair met at Lyons Township High School, where Paul considered Mickey Gervase "the nicest girl in school" and Mickey thought Paul Franson "the most handsome kid in the class," though they never dated then.
Home from college one summer break, Mickey was working at her father's gas station when Paul pulled in. She asked if he'd go with her to a wedding that weekend, saying her date had canceled (a white lie; she had in fact been debating between several potential dates). Paul agreed to go.
They dated for eight months of heady first love. That's when Paul, working for the park district, lunched on the roof of the old maintenance shed at Gordon Park and, with a can of aluminum paint he was supposed to be using to paint a fence, scrawled his first ode to Mickey.
But back at college, he at Eastern Illinois University in Charleston and she at Carthage College in Kenosha, Wis., the distance became a challenge. This was a time when college students shared one phone at the end of the residence hall. And, for Paul, there were other girls much closer by.
Paul called Mickey and told her, "I love you, but I can't do this." She was heartbroken. He still feels guilty about it.
"I feel like I betrayed all the niceness that she was," he said.
They barely spoke again.
More than three decades later — after Paul had been married for 26 years, had two daughters, and divorced; and Mickey had been married 19 years, had two sons and a daughter, and divorced — time came for the Lyons Township High School Class of 1975's 35th reunion.
Mickey was co-chair of the reunion committee and happily single. Paul, weighed down by depression since his divorce, did not want to go. But a friend kept pestering him and he caved.
On the drive to the Oct. 2, 2010 reunion, the friend asked if there was anyone he was afraid of seeing.
"Yeah," he remembers telling her. "Mickey Gervase."
Mickey was the first person he saw upon entering the reunion. She was checking people in. When they finally were able to talk later in the evening, Paul apologized for how he treated her in their youth. Mickey told him she harbored no bad feelings. Then she asked him two questions:
Was he still married? He said he wasn't. And where was he in his faith? He said it was as strong as ever. It was what she hoped to hear.
They started dating, and it felt like they had picked up where they left off, but with the maturity to grasp what they had and how not to let it go.
Again, their courtship lasted eight months. But this time, after going to church, Paul took Mickey to the Gordon Park rooftop. As they admired his silvery handiwork from 1977, he proposed on the chimney with a black magic marker.
The couple was engaged for just three weeks before making the impromptu decision to get married at a double-engagement party they were having with Mickey's sister and her fiance, who had gotten engaged five days after them. As the party wound down that Sunday, July 17, 2011, they made an announcement.
"We said, 'You've been asking us when we're going to get married,'" Paul recalled. "'Well, we've picked a date.'"
He invited the guests to follow them to the chimney, where they had already arranged for the pastor from Paul's church to officiate.
Thirty-three guests gathered on the ground as Paul and Mickey said their vows on the roof, beside their chimney. The police arrived after receiving a call about a disturbance, but left when they heard what was happening. A year later, Paul and Mickey remain giddy about their love story, in awe of what feels fated.
"This is what the right person does to someone," Paul said, after being called out on the fervor of their adoration. "I'm not romantic. Mickey makes me romantic. I'm not a writer at all ..."
"He has written me the most beautiful letters," Mickey interjected.
"I am not a lot of things, but I am a lot more things with my wife," Paul said.
They also remain committed to their chimney, and preserving its role in their romance. On their wedding day, the Fransons noticed that the black marker from their engagement had washed away. Paul had started to retrace the words with the aluminum paint that had proven so trusty, but stopped after "Will You Marry" so that the guests wouldn't have to wait.
That's one reason they wished to climb back on the roof that recent sunny morning when the fire chief interrupted — to finish what they started.
When the chief drove away, Paul turned to Mickey and said: "We're going to have to make a night mission out of this."
She agreed: "We'll come back and wear black."
Love lesson: Timing is everything in relationships. Ask Mickey Franson, who says her second round of romance with Paul is richer because they are both more mature.
"I don't think I really understood what love was — just unconditional adoring of another person," Mickey said.

Civic Education Video Series
The MBF, in partnership with MetroEast Community Media, has produced a video series on democracy issues. This project focuses on the themes of voter registration and the importance of being an informed voter, civic engagement, responsible civil discourse, what goes on in the courthouse, impartial courts, rule of law, the balance of powers and the various kinds of courts and how they fit into public safety. The Bus Project, City Club of Portland, League of Women Voters of Portland and mediator Jim Park assisted in the development of some of the video content and the Classroom Law Project created discussion guides for classroom use. Please scroll down to view the videos or watch them on YouTube.
