Tyrod Taylor's debut in the NFL did little to quell sentiment that the Ravens need a veteran presence behind starter Joe Flacco.
After leaving Virginia Tech as the school's all-time passer, Taylor got a rude welcome from the Philadelphia Eagles in their 13-6 victory over the Ravens in the preseason opener for both teams Thursday night.
On his third play of the game, Taylor prematurely launched a deep pass to rookie wide receiver Torrey Smith that was intercepted by safety Jaiquawn Jarrett.
A Taylor pass to Dennis Pitta in the right flat was behind the tight end. After an interception and 39-yard return by Ravens safety Bernard Pollard set up the offense near midfield, the unit stalled at the Eagles' 43-yard line, forcing the Ravens to punt.
And after the offense drove to Philadelphia's 8, Taylor tried to force a pass to rookie wide receiver Tandon Doss in the end zone that was intercepted by safety Jarrad Page.
After a potential third interception was overturned by video review, Taylor walked into the locker room with a trainer after absorbing a blow to the head.
Through the first three quarters, Taylor completed 8-of-12 passes for 57 yards and two interceptions. He was sacked three times and had a passer rating of 37.8.
"Tyrod did some good things," offensive coordinator Cam Cameron said in remarks collected by the team during halftime. "He's a young man who learns quickly, and you almost see improvement every day. I'll say one thing: it's not too big for him. He has poise."
On Tuesday, Taylor sounded optimistic about his development in training camp.
"I think I've taken steps forward," he said after practice. "My main goal was to come in and learn as much as possible from Coach Cam Cameron and Joe Flacco. And each day, you get better. Don't take any satisfaction, and I think I've been like that from Day 1 at camp."
Glimmer of hope for J.Smith
When the Ravens announced their list of inactives against the Eagles, what was notable was that rookie cornerback Jimmy Smith was not on that list.
Smith, the team's first-round pick in April who has been hobbled by a groin injury, did not start — as the Ravens initially announced — but he did enter on the defense's second series of the game. But that appeared to be the only series in which he played.
Smith had returned to practice on Tuesday after making brief appearances on Saturday and Monday. After Tuesday's session, coach John Harbaugh had indicated that Smith would likely not play against the Eagles.
Linebacker Tavares Gooden (unspecified), wide receiver Justin Harper (unspecified) and offensive tackle Andre Ramsey (right hand) also were not on the inactives list. Gooden was absent from Tuesday's practice, but played in the third quarter. Harper and Ramsey, both of whom left Tuesday's session early, were active, but did not make an appearance in the game.
Parmele gets opportunity
With newly-signed Ricky Williams unable to play, Jalen Parmele was inserted at running back behind starter Ray Rice.
Parmele carried the ball seven times for 35 yards, including six times for 33 yards on the offense's first drive of the third quarter.
Parmele had said earlier that he can't obsess over the team's decision to sign Williams.
"They're constantly trying to make the team better, and if they feel like they need to bring in a running back to come and compete, that's what they did," Parmele said. "I can't take that as them saying, 'Oh, they don't trust me.' I've just got to do what I do, and I've just got to prove that I can be that guy during the preseason."
Flacco the lobbyist
Flacco said he did let team officials know that he wanted tight end Todd Heap to return.
Heap was released just before training camp to create $4.6 million in salary-cap room. He has since signed a two-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals worth around $6 million, which the Ravens couldn't match because they didn't have the cap space to do so.
"I tried to influence it a little bit," Flacco said after Tuesday's practice. "You have an opinion and that's all you can do. I think they listened and they gave an effort. I'm happy for Todd. He's back home and he's in a good situation. I know Todd loves Baltimore and would have loved to finish his career here. Other than here, he's in the best situation for himself."
End zone
When the defense took the field for its second series of the game, six starters in linebackers Ray Lewis, Terrell Suggs and Jarret Johnson, free safety Ed Reed, defensive tackle Haloti Ngata and defensive end Cory Redding were pulled from the game. They were replaced by linebackers Prescott Burgess, Paul Kruger and Dannell Ellerbe, free safety Haruki Nakamura, defensive tackle Lamar Divens and defensive end Arthur Jones. … The Ravens deactivated wide receivers David Reed (left wrist/physically-unable-to-perform list), James Hardy (hamstring) and rookie Rodney Bradley (unspecified), cornerback Domonique Foxworth (right knee) , running backs Williams and Matt Lawrence (unspecified), tight end Ed Dickson (hamstring), center Matt Birk (left knee), defensive tackle Brandon McKinney (knee) and offensive tackle Ramon Harewood (knee/physically-unable-to-perform list). … Jared Gaither became the third ex-Ravens starter to sign with the Kansas City Chiefs, joining nose tackle Kelly Gregg and fullback Le'Ron McClain. The signing was first announced by the Chiefs.It will be a homecoming of sorts next week when the Chiefs play the Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium on Friday in the second preseason game for both teams. … The Ravens were represented by linebackers Lewis and Brendon Ayanbadejo and Flacco for the pre-game toss, which the Ravens won.

Difference between revisions of "Bucaramanga"
Revision as of 15:25, 15 March 2010
Bucaramanga is a city in the Santander region of Colombia.
Bucaramanga is a medium sized city, home to nearly 1 million inhabitants (all of the metropolitan area). It's a major commercial hub in northeastern Colombia, playing a significant role in trade between Colombia and Venezuela. It's not a huge touristy destination like Cartagena or Santa Marta but nonetheless it is surrounded by beautiful landscapes and ancient towns with a lot of history, which overall makes the visit to Bucaramanga worthwhile.
Get in
As always in Colombia, foreigners are NOT advised to travel by car alone. You can go out with your family, your friends or with a guide with no problem. They will take you to their farms, nearby towns and resorts without problems.
By air
Palonegro Airport (BGA) is located about 45 minutes from town near Lebrija. Domestic flights include Bogotá, Medellín, Cúcuta and Yopal, and it recently started its first international flights to Panama City, with renovations underway to further expand its flights.
By bus
The city offers a clean, modern and nice bus station (La Terminal de Transportes de Bucaramanga) from where you can take busses to almost any destination around Colombia; you can even take buses from here that will take you to Venezuela, Perú and Ecuador. There are frequent 10 hour buses from Bogota for prices starting from COP 40 000.
Get around
By bus
There are many public and private transportation companies that offer bus services and cover almost all of the metropolitan area (Bucaramanga, Girón, Floridablanca and Piedecuesta). It's a cheap and a rather safe way (ticket costs around US$ 0.45). However, it will cost more depending on the bus, the route, and the day traveling around Bucaramanga. They offer nice and clean vehicles that you will make you feel comfortable. If loud music is not your preference then this transportation option could be a problem for you. Most of the drivers enjoy their loud music, but this doesn't happen in most cases.
As stated above, foreigners should not take buses if they are traveling alone. Especially to some 'hot' (dangerous because of the conflict) places like Villavicencio and Barrancabermeja, which are advised to use air services instead. The road that links Bogotá with Bucaramanga is safe, and you can freely travel on this road or take buses with no concern. This road also offers some excellent spots worth checking out, like the Chicamocha Canyon, the towns of San Gil, Socorro, Vélez and Barichara, among others.
Opened in December 2009, the new bus system rides by exclusive lanes making many trips faster and more comfortable. It is safe a clean. [2]
By taxi
This is by far the best way to travel around if you don't mind spending a bit more for transportation. The cabs here are very clean, safe and they will take you anywhere you want. However, if you ride a cab, please make sure that you get the plates written down somewhere, and as an advice, it would be better if you call the company and request a cab.
Most of the people in Bucaramanga speak spanish only, and you will probably have a hard time trying to get addresses and other information from people on streets, but if you go to big hangout places like malls, parks or supermarkets, english speaker people will certainly be found around.
There are plenty of things to sight seeing in Bucaramanga, starting from the east side via Cúcuta you can find nice and large balconies and enjoy a panoramic view of the city. The center of Bucaramanga, like any downtown in the world, gets really crowded on weekends and peak hours, however you can enjoy lots of bargains and sales in the shops, nice quality of clothes and shoes of course.
In the south of Bucaramanga you can find different resorts or clubs where you can play golf, futbol, swim, or just chill out with your friends.
Generally the most popular zone in Bucaramanga is Cabecera, this is the most modern area in the city with lots of malls and entertainment like cinemas, restaurants and shops.
To buy shoes, there is not a better place than Bucaramanga, due to the many shoe factories the prices are inexpensive. Good leather and excellent manufacturing.
Pineapples are an excellent buy. The best pineapples in the world, with only competition from the Hawaiian pineapples.
Traditional Santanderean dishes include:
Don't forget to try all the fresh fruits you can find at either the traditional markets, or at the supermarkets. Pineapples from Lebrija (Located 35-40 minutes from Bucaramanga) are famous for their size and sweetness. Oranges, tangerines and limes are traditional crops and can be found all year round (like most of the other fruits). Mango, Papaya, Watermelon, Maracuyá (passion fruit), Guava, Curuba, Pitahaya... the list is very extensive.
Some of the most popular places to eat in Bucaramanga are:
Some of the popular places to hang out in Bucaramanga are:
Get out
The new aerial cable is among the longest in the world. You can board in the neighboring towns of Mesa de los Santos or Panachi across the Chicamocha national park, it covers a fantastic view of a deep canyon [9].
Girón is a small and pretty colonial style town just about 10 km outside Bucaramanga.

Had a talk last week with a couple people in the propane industry with a look toward harvest, which may be a surprise since it probably feels to many as if planting just ended. But that late-planted crop could be coming out of the field wetter than usual (there's no guarantee if weather turns hot and dry at the right time).
It's that uncertainty that creates challenges unique to agriculture. You have to balance your cash flow and your need to have propane on hand. But this is also a symptom of an even higher-level management question of tackling logistics across your entire operation.
A few years ago when a new larger combine came to market, one of the complaints was the need to run bigger rigs to move grain from field to elevator (or market) faster than in the past. The higher capacity combine was so fast that farmers found it sitting idle too much because they couldn't get carts emptied fast enough. A marketing person at the combine company smiled and said they were helping a farmer "find the pinch points in their operation."
And it's those "pinch points" that can cause wasted time. A $400,000 combine idling in the field why hard-working farm help rushes to empty a 1,300-bushel grain cart into a semi costs you money. Newer, bigger equipment is challenge the logistics planning of even the most savvy farmer. Is the answer bigger carts? An extra semi to move grain?
You're faced with these questions every day. Last spring the challenge was having the right seed where you needed it. And that wasn't always easy.
Today's farmer is dealing with logistics - a term that was alien to the business just a few years ago - in new ways. Strategically tending a sprayer or building your needed harvest infrastructure is a balancing act. How you manage that differs from farm to farm, but the purchase of a single, larger piece of equipment creates a big ripple on the ol' logistics pond that can force changes across your operation.
Iron-makers will keep innovating their equipment for higher productivity, how that impacts your business becomes your challenge. In the next few weeks we'll work some of the math for you especially with large machinery to determine some questions you should be asking for your farm. If you have a question or two on that score, ask in the comment area below and we'll include those answers in our coverage.

Smith College Sports Information
NORTHAMPTON, Mass. - Smith College opened New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) softball competition on Sunday afternoon with a 9-2 and 4-3 sweep of MIT. With the victories, the Pioneers improved to 6-7 overall and 2-0 in conference play as the Engineers fell to 3-10 overall and 0-2 in the NEWMAC.
Smith put four runs on the board in the first three innings of the opening game. Megan Kiefer led off the bottom of the first with a double, stole third and scored on a grounder by Katie Schoenen. In the second inning, Emily Hiltzik drew a walk and advanced to second while Taryn Pestalozzi reached first on an error. Laura Robitzek reached on a fielder's choice but Hiltzik was thrown out at third. Marisa Kritikson notched a double that scored Pestalozzi and Kiefer followed with a single to pick up the second RBI of the inning. Schoenen led off the third inning with a double, Erin Quinn and Jessie Paull each singled and Paull picked up the RBI.

What is the CORE Program?
The CORE program is a collaboration between the American Academy of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery Foundation, senior/subspecialty societies, foundations and industry sponsors to provide a uniform centralized research grant application, review, and administration process. This process was designed to achieve three objectives:
- provide support for the most meritorious research in otolaryngology-head and neck surgery;
- educate young investigators to prepare competitive grant applications;
- and prepare more surgeon-scientists to serve as peer reviewers for NIH and other research agencies.
The CORE program brings greater scale and less fragmentation and overlap to otolaryngology-head and neck surgery research opportunities, reduces the aggregate costs of the individual grant programs, and enables a comprehensive overview of the spectrum of promising otolaryngology and head and neck surgery research/researchers to promote to NIH and other agencies.
CORE Contributing Specialty Societies, Foundations, and Industry Sponsors
The Alcon Foundation
American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy (AAOA) Foundation
American Academy of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNSF)
American Head and Neck Society (AHNS)
American Neurotology Society (ANS)
American Rhinologic Society (ARS)
American Society of Pediatric Otolaryngology (ASPO)
Cook Medical
The Doctors Company Foundation
The Educational and Research Foundation for the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS)
The Oticon Foundation
The CORE Grant Program Process
Each participating society has agreed to have its grant application and review process handled through the CORE Study Section which is made up of three subcommittees: Otology, Head and Neck Surgery, and General Otolaryngology. The reviewers that serve on these subcommittees are made up of experienced investigators and representative physicians from the collaborating societies and foundations. A Letter of intent (LOI) must be submitted online through proposalCENTRAL, our online application submission site. Our standard due date for LOIs is every year on December 15th. If this date falls on a weekend, then applications are due the next business day. The LOI requires your name, institution, the title of your project, a brief abstract, categorizing your topic by specialty, and other information. The LOI is a non-binding agreement. The LOIs assist us in gauging how many reviewers might be needed for each subcommittee to review the expected volume of applications.
Applications must be submitted online through proposalCENTRAL by midnight eastern standard time on January 15th.
The CORE Study Section attempts to mimic the NIH review process as closely as possible. Each application is assigned to at least two independent expert reviewers who read the application and submit a written report covering predetermined review criteria. All reviewers then meet in March to discuss the applications and assign a priority score to each, based on significance, approach, and feasibility of the research strategy. The applications with the top scores are placed on a list for recommended funding. Each application receives a detailed Summary Statement of the review (aka "pink sheet" or critique) discussing the strengths and weaknesses of the application. This can be a valuable learning tool for future grant-writing efforts. The applications, critiques, and funding recommendations are provided to the governing bodies of the funding organizations. The funding organization is free to accept the recommendations of the CORE Study Section or not and makes funding decisions independently. Awardees are notified in late April or early May depending upon when the final decision is made by the funding organization. The AAO-HNSF is responsible for selecting the grantees for the industry sponsored grants (i.e. The Alcon Foundation, Cook Medical, The Oticon Foundation, The Doctors Company Foundation, etc.).

Is your New Years resolution to lose weight? If the answer is yes, simply wanting to lose weight doesn't mean it will be an easy endeavor. Diets are notoriously hard to adhere to - which is why the new 2012 "Best Diets" rankings from U.S. News include a particularly helpful list of diets that are easiest to follow.
Which diets are bound to give you trouble and which might you have better luck losing weight with? Keep clicking to find out...
Credit: istockphoto
Dehydrated bananas and buckwheat sunflower seed pizza crust? About 75 to 80 percent of what raw foodists eat are plant-based foods never heated above 115 degrees. The approach is extremely prohibitive and unusual, and some meals are based on plants that must be germinated from seeds, harvested, and dehydrated. Of all 25 diets evaluated, experts deemed it the most difficult to follow and gave it close to the lowest score possible in this category.
Score: 1.1
Rules-driven and extremely restrictive, the Dukan diet was second worst, scoring a full star below the average for all diets. The early phases focus only on high-protein choices like veal and pork, and alcohol is banned entirely until later stages. (Other food groups eventually are added back in.) "A diet that is not flexible and limits macronutrients would be difficult to integrate into daily dietary habits," said one expert.
Score: 1.5

With a score nearly a star below average, veganism qualifies as somewhat difficult to follow. It's very restrictive, and shaping a healthful (and tasty) plan takes work and creativity. Restaurant meals are doable, but options may be limited. And only certain types of alcohol are vegan-friendly.
Score: 1.7
The premise of the paleo diet - that if cavemen didn't eat it, you shouldn't, either - means cutting out refined sugar, dairy, legumes, and grains, while subsisting on meat, fish, poultry, fruits, and veggies. Such restrictions make the diet among the more challenging to follow on our list.
Look elsewhere if you want simple, the experts agreed. No dairy, eggs, poultry, or red meat allowed - or anything artificial, processed, or with chemical additives. One expert called the macrobiotic diet a "drastic diet change" and expressed doubt that most Americans could comply.
Research suggests most people have trouble sticking to restrictive diets, and the Ornish diet's limit on fat to 10 percent of daily calories compared with the government's recommended 20 to 35 percent is certainly restrictive. Those who can't do without fatty foods like animal products may not be able to stay the course. Experts gave Ornish just under 2 stars, deeming it somewhat difficult to follow.
Score: 1.9
The glycemic-index diet lacks the structure provided by some commercial plans, making it somewhat difficult to follow. Dieters must figure out what, how much, and when to eat on their own. Plus, a GI ranking, which distinguishes good carbs from bad, isn't available for every food.
Score: 1.8
Experts had enough reservations to send Eco-Atkins to the bottom third of the easy-to-follow list. While it's less restrictive than traditional Atkins, most followers eliminate all animal products, making compliance somewhat difficult. And few books, online tips, or other resources are available to guide dieters.
Each meal on the Zone diet must contain the precise percentage of carbs, protein, and healthy fat. There's a strict eating schedule, too: breakfast within an hour of waking up; snacks and meals every five hours. That inflexibility makes Zone somewhat difficult to follow.
Score: 2.2
Atkins was rated somewhat difficult to follow. It's very restrictive - goodbye to sweets and bread, for example - and dieters must diligently count carbs. Plans that sharply limit entire food groups for long periods, as Atkins does with carbs, tend to succeed less often than more flexible diets do, according to experts. Eating out is a chore, and alcohol is discouraged. All of the above explain why Atkins scored just a bit below average and wound up in the lower middle of the pack.
Score: 2.3
Credit: iStock photo
A limited menu and small portions make the Medifast diet somewhat difficult to follow, according to experts. Its powdered, just-add-water food also will likely grow old fast. But dieters get to eat frequently and aren't required to track anything - there's no counting of carbs, points, or calories - all compliance-boosters.
Score: 2.4
Toward the lower end of the moderately easy range. Lots of prep work is required, and each meal must include at least two of 12 Abs Diet Powerfoods. That could challenge busy dieters, one expert said. On the upside, one "cheat day" is allowed per week and dieters get frequent meals and snacks.
Score: 2.6
On the easy-to-follow scale, the vegetarian diet joins the moderately-easy cluster. It
The flat belly diet is moderately easy to follow. While menus are tasty and ample guides are available, the strict eating schedule - a meal or snack every four hours - may be a turnoff for busy dieters. And a specified amount of monounsaturated fatty acids is required at every meal, making the plan "unnecessarily complicated," as one expert noted.
Score: 2.7
Nearly 3 stars put the South Beach diet about in the middle of the pack as another moderately easy-to-follow plan. Snacks and dessert are allowed, and there
The Biggest Loser diet is a relatively good choice as a moderately easy plan. No food group is off limits, and recipes, convenience foods, and online resources abound. "This is a pretty common sense approach," said one expert. "It's not overly restrictive, making it easier for one to stick with long term."
Score: 2.9
Developed by the National Institutes of Health, the Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes (TLC) diet is moderately easy to follow. There are lots of online resources, including meal plans and recipes, but dieters must decode nutrition labels on their own. The experts appreciated the emphasis on fiber-packed fruits and veggies, which help keep hunger at bay.
Score: 3.0
Another moderately easy program, thanks to heat-and-eat, home-delivered meals. The downside: Dieters must cut back on dining out, and adjust to eating different meals than the rest of the family. Still, Nutrisystem's simplicity makes it a
The Mayo Clinic diet is also moderately easy to follow. Its eating pyramid promotes foods with low energy density, meaning dieters can eat more while taking in fewer calories. Restaurant meals are allowed, and there are lots of resources (including tips and recipes) that help dieters stick to the plan.
Score: 3.1
Sticking to the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) plan is moderately easy. While it
The diet's score of just above 3 stars, out of a possible 5, was well above average. No foods are banned and filling choices like fruits, veggies, and soup are emphasized. Nor does it call for drastic changes - the focus is on making smart, maintainable tweaks. One expert praised Volumetrics for being "straightforward"; another called it "family-friendly and sustainable."
Score: 3.2
Credit: Flickr/joyosity
Grab a couple of meal replacements and you're good to go. The diet's convenience factor places it among the easier programs to follow, experts said. Slim-Fast products come in many flavors, from chocolate cookie dough to French vanilla, and dieters need only worry about preparing one home-cooked meal per day.
Credit: Consumer Reports Health
Experts commended the emphasis on diverse foods and flavors. Dieters can tailor the menu to their tastes and preferences, and are even encouraged to have a glass or two a day of red wine. Since there's no hard and fast calorie range, going hungry isn't a concern, which helps make the Mediterranean diet moderately easy to follow.
Score: 3.3
Built around prepackaged, home-delivered meals, Jenny Craig takes the guesswork out of dieting. That makes it very easy to follow for those needing portion control and discipline, one expert noted. Meals include favorites like apple cinnamon waffles, lasagna, fish and chips, and cookies, and a Consumer Reports taste-testing panel found them good overall. Like Weight Watchers, Jenny also got praise from the U.S. News experts for structured support, via counselors who work one-on-one with dieters.
Score: 3.6
Credit: Jenny Craig
Dieters can eat whatever they want as long as they don't exceed their allotted daily points. No foods are forbidden, occasional treats are encouraged, and the plan emphasizes all-you-can-eat fresh fruits and veggies. Experts liked the optional weekly meetings, since support is crucial to compliance. They also applauded Weight Watchers for being realistic, flexible, and filling.

Darren Ambrose and Glenn Murray struck at the death as Crystal Palace inflicted a dramatic 3-1 derby defeat on Brighton.
The Seagulls were within 10 minutes of a first victory over their arch rivals on home soil since 1988, and a return to the top of the table, following Craig Mackail-Smith's early opener.
But Wilfried Zaha struck a deserved equaliser and substitute Ambrose put the visitors ahead before Murray rammed the taunts of the Seagulls faithful back down their throats with the third.
It meant a first league defeat for Brighton at their new Amex Stadium, which was packed to the rafters for a spiky derby encounter.
The Albion fans had reserved a special 'welcome' for Murray, who fired them to promotion last season only to snub a new contract and instead join Palace on a free transfer.
Brighton boss Gus Poyet promptly went out and signed Mackail-Smith, the only player to outscore Murray in League One, and the #2.5million striker showed why after just seven minutes.
Ryan Harley played a short corner to Gary Dicker, who was allowed to reach the byline and cross towards the near post where Mackail-Smith prodded the ball home.
These two sides, from opposite ends of the A23, had not played each other in six years but absence did not appear to have made the heart grow fonder.
Referee Andy D'Urso was kept on his toes in a first half not for the faint hearted, booking Zaha and Peter Ramage of Palace and Brighton's Liam Bridcutt and Lewis Dunk for some particularly meaty challenges.
Murray had a chance to silence the boo boys when he was sent through by Jonathan Williams shortly before half-time but, with Dunk in close attendance, he scuffed his shot wide.
But Palace were far more of a threat after the break and Zaha got the better of Marcos Painter on the hour mark but his angled shot was deflected over.
From the corner Brighton survived a major scare when goalkeeper Casper Ankergren missed Sean Scannell's cross, Paddy McCarthy headed goalwards and Mackail-Smith proved he could be handy at both ends by clearing off the line.
Ankergren redeemed himself by beating away Jonathan Parr's fierce drive and Murray was inches wide from a Zaha cross.
But Palace's pressure eventually told in the 80th minute when Zaha skipped past two weak challenges on the edge of the area before cutting his shot back past Ankergren.
Ambrose stabbed them into the lead with a minute to go from Parr's cross, and Murray added insult to injury when he curled in number three in stoppage time.

|Problem Summary
|An error messages is received after the Unified CVP Operations Console Server, and the Operations Console Resource Manager on a Nuance Speech Server was installed, and added the Speech Server in Operations Console and saved configuration.
|Error Message
|"<devicetype> device with IP Address: <ip> and Hostname: <host> operation failed. Device could not be reached. The device may have multiple NIC cards enabled. To resolve the issue please keep only one NIC card with required IP address enabled. In addition to the NIC cards change also restart the Resource Manager service on the device."
|Possible Cause
|In some instances, when starting the RMI Server, the RMI server remote stubs contain the IP address of the local host (127.0.0.1) instead of the real IP address. Since the 'Resource Manager service' on each machine uses JMX (RMI Server), in the situation where remote stubs containing local host (127.0.0.1) the Operations Console Server cannot communicate with that specific 'Resource Manager' service. It is because the Operations Console Server uses the real IP address to communicate with JMX (RMI) Server in the Resource Manager Service where as remote stubs contain local host ip address, so the connection fails.
|Recommended Action

Skepticism prevails in today's society
Skepticism prevails in today's society

ADNAN OKTAR: "Societies and people are not able to talk to each other comfortably. People are very touchy and inclined to infer different meanings from things. Friendships are transient. How can people overcome this Master and how should such people be treated? "
".. people are not able to talk to each other comfortably.." Well, that is because that person's face is the face of a human being yet his soul is a monster. One approaches the other with well intentions, with compassion and that one pulls such a trick and persecutes him in such a way that it is indescribable. Or this one says "how are you? Are you okay? I've seen you well," with very good intentions yet the other says; "Well, he said such a thing to me, he said 'I've seen you well!' to me!" And he makes such outrageous comments upon that; "He said; "I've seen you well!" and he said this to me so as to imply that I am drunk! He said it to mean "you are stoned!" Well, what does it have to do with it? He just asks you how you are and if you are fine and he says that he has seen you well, so what is the problem with that? Because an evil skepticism prevails, even the most friendly, the most endearing manners are attributed to evil feelings by many people. That is why people try to speak as few as possible. They try to minimize their speaking and evade. They even avoid looking anyone in the eye. Do you ever see anyone outside who looks another in the eye while talking?
DIDEM RAHVANCI: That is very true Master.
ADNAN OKTAR: That is something very rare. They never look another in the eye. And they are very careful to minimize their talks, with the minimum words and only as much as they can do what they want. For instance if one wants to buy a sesame ring he would just say; "How much is this, my brother? Take your Money and give it to me." That is it. If they want to buy a dress, "how much is this? Take this," and the matter is all over. However Allah has created us to love each other. He created us to love the whole universe. He created us to love animals and the plants. Before all else Allah wants us to love Him. "People are very touchy.." That is because some people disgracefully make innuendos, they are insincere and they lack good conscience. So they feel fear, they never know which of the things said are innuendos and which are friendly. For instance the man writes an article for the newspaper and in his own way he makes innuendos. Something happens and he says allusive words, for instance he puts an exclamation mark in the end. For instance he says; "that is very nice" and then puts an exclamation mark and the other one gets offended saying "who knows what he means."
".. and inclined to infer different meanings from things." Because human intelligence is a sophisticated intelligence if one does not have fear of Allah, if one does not love Allah, that person would be under the influence of the satan anyway. And once that person gets under the influence of the satan he/she would most probably engage in abnormal behavior. Take a look at the Facebook. For instance they see a very beautiful woman and I look at the comments under the photo, people with the mindset of a Muslim would be write their comments in an admiring tone but those with an evil mindset would have rage and hatred inside. In fact one should not feel rage towards beauty, beauty should be appreciated but they approach with hatred. That foreign actress came from abroad, Angelina Jolie.. She is the sweetest of the World, she is really beautiful. And these people accused her of being an agent and some other things.. The only thing they didn't accuse her of was being a murderer. They pictured her dipping her fingers in blood and painting her lips with it. Is she someone like that? She is a mother, she has children. She is such an immaculate person. She came to Turkey showing compassion to the refugees of Syria and she went to Pakistan showing compassion to the sufferers of natural disasters. She is a woman who devoted herself to goodness and beauty. You should appreciate her my brother, look at her with lovingly, how could something like that be said to a person who is a guest in your country? What a humiliating thing this is, what a weird, what a bad attitude this is.There may be some people who do such things out of ignorance, out of their lack of knowledge. And such people should also pull themselves together. For instance look at my dear one here, she is a non-Muslim, she is Christian but she is the sweetest of the World, she is such a radiant person, she is such a beautiful being. She is such a beautiful Manifestation of Allah. Someone looking at her with the eyes of an unbeliever, with jealousy might say inconceivable things but I am looking at her with loving eyes so I feel an admiration, I am greatly pleased with her being, I like her a lot and I appreciate her, I want to be with her in this World and in the Hereafter, I would want her to be even better, I would want her to find abundance in her life, I would want her life to be high-class, joyous and merry. But let us say that you ask about her to a woman, to a woman who feels jealousy for instance she acts as if she can almost kill her, such people are full of hatred. And that is the result of darwinist, materialist education. This wouldn't be the case if people had been brought up with love, this wouldn't have happened if they had targetted love. We should target to attain a fervent love. Love is in our nature anyway; we've been created to love and to be loved. We always are in search of this. However, women are already defenseless beings, those beloved ones of mine, the shyness they feel is natural. They might hesitate thinking that the other might do harm to her, that is because their tone is not that strong and the other side is sometimes an animalistic man in the street or elsewhere let us say.. The woman would of course behave timid, what else can she do? For instance the other side says something but it feels as if he/she is allusive, he/she is not being honest. Or else if an honest person approaches an honest woman there would of course be an honest, affectionate environment. But in this case the other party is sinister, it is understood from his face, a woman would of course be leery of that. Or it might be the other way round as well. Sometimes the woman might be the sinister party and the man might be the well intentioned one.

The Garden of the
Finzi-Continis (Il giardino dei Finzi-Contini) was presented in the
Piazza Grande under the stars at the Locarno International Film Festival's 'pre-Festival'
Directed by Vittorio De Sica in 1970, the film won the Oscar for
Best Foreign Film. The film was introduced by three-time Oscar winner and
producer of the movie, Arthur Cohn, who spoke about his work with Vittorio De
Sica. "He taught me three points: 1)
Anytime you make a movie don't necessarily go with known actors; 2) Always
insist to shoot the scene in the original, intended location; and 3) Always do
what you feel; listen to your instinct and not what others tell you."
Cohn detailed the impact The
Garden of the Finzi-Continis has had around the world, and its influence on
filmmakers, including Steven Spielberg and his film Schindler's List. Cohn also
emphasized one major theme of the film: "The characters were guilty of lack of
courage to fight the orders." He cited the example: "When they took the Jews,
they always said, "Prego" (Please). This is illustrated when the Finzi-Contini
family is taken from their home.
Lino Capolicchio, who played the main character, Giorgio, said a
few words about his experience working with De Sica, and then the lights
dimmed, and the credits rolled.

Birthday party season has begun.
I have had some interesting experiences with birthday parties with a crazy Martha Stewart wanna-be mom here and a crazy opposite of Martha Stewart wanna-be mom here.
As painful as some of these birthday parties have been – we have managed to avoid one place.
Anytime my children see the commercials for Chuck E.
Cheese they beg and plead for me to bring them to this magical place. I have been telling them for years – that (even though there are blatantly children their age in the ads) only teenagers can go there.
A couple of weeks ago, we got an invitation for both kids to go to a birthday party. Sometimes I throw invitations I don't like into the garbage and hope for the best – but there was no way that I would get away with that for a party that they were both invited to. I would not be able to beat the system….
"Wait – Michael has soccer practice on Friday nights! Oh well….can't go." I said as my husband ( I will just call him Mr. Gaga) and I were standing at our kitchen island going through the mail.
"They are going to the party," he said without even looking up from something he was reading.
So let me digress and give a little background on this situation. Mr. Gaga played football his whole life, like it was his job. Year-round, all weekend, every weekend, all summer.
He never had a real summer job, he never went to summer camp that wasn't sports-related, AND (this is apparently the big one) – he never really made it to a lot of birthday parties.
Guess what his prize was for all of his hard work?
Was he getting fat eating Smurf cake or getting bruised knees from all of the falling down at the roller-rink like the rest of us? (it was the 80's)
He got to go to college for free!!
Not even just a "here are some free classes and a free room scholarship" – The full ride I am talking about is the kind where you don't even buy a french fry or a pencil.
Stone-cold free college at a Division 1 School.
Oh – that was a totally horrible thing that happened right??
Boo- hoo.
You can see why he would still be harboring weird resentments regarding Chuck E. Cheese – right?
"What the eff are you talking about? He doesn't have to go to the party." I said.
"Just let him be a kid and have fun – he's 5 years old – he can miss a practice." he replied with exasperation.
"OoooKaaayyy, they can go to the party," I said slowly,"But don't you think it would be good to teach him about practicing and what it means to commit to a team, and so forth?"
He looked at me like I was an idiot – "Come on – it's first grade soccer – It's not a big deal."
"Ok – well good thing Tiger Wood's father didn't think like that……or Lynne Spears." – (Damn it – those were the only people I could think of that started their careers as children -but I knew I just shot myself in the foot.)
He couldn't wait to reply – "Oh yeah – how did that turn out?"
I shrugged – "Ok – then maybe you're right. When I go to the party I am going to ask to speak to someone about what kind of scholarship program they offer at Chuck E. Cheese. Or maybe they could go to Chuck E. Cheese University."
He smirked – "Good one."
"Or maybe by the time they go to school there will be some sort of competitive inflatable bounce house teams or they could get sponsored by like a corporate face painting company….."
The dreaded day came on Friday. I kind of secretly was looking forward to checking it out. I remember going for my brother's birthday when I was like 8 and thinking it was the best place in the world. I was looking forward to seeing the joy in my kids' eyes. I mean how bad could it be?
Um – bad.
Let's just say that if they were going to make Chuck E. Cheese University they would have to change the tagline to be "Where a kid could be an asshole while his parents gnaw on chicken bones and watch."
My four-year-old learned real quick when he put his FULL bucket of tokens down on his seat for 30 seconds and it got stolen.
Then they were playing "Skee Ball" and their tickets came out and some little girl came and ripped them all off and RAN AWAY!!
When I saw her ripping off all of our tickets, I said:
"Did you just rip off their tickets?" thinking that clearly calling her out would shame her into returning them.
"Nope." she said while she counted her tickets.
Shocked I looked to see if her parents were watching – they were. They didn't care.
What? You didn't know you could get wings at Chuck E. Cheese University?
After all of the fun and games it was dinner time!
And you know how I feel about food? You know how I feel about pizza that is not really pizza? I thought maybe there was hope when I saw this very detailed ad in the paper.
See how it maps out all the areas that have been improved?
Lady goo goo gaga fell for the old "zesty sauce" trick….
What? They zoomed in on a wooden spoon stirring it!!!
I also fell for the old "variety of quality toppings" trick with a zoomed in picture of green peppers and cauliflower? to prove it.
False advertising Chuck. Not improved – it is still really bad.
But the kids didn't care- and I could have actually given them their rainboots with some sauce and cheese on it and they would have probably not noticed.
So off to the ticket-muncher we went to redeem our tickets (what was left after we got car-jacked at the Mario Kart game and had to give all of our tickets away to the carjacker.) Then the kids got to pick out really fancy toys that have pictures of Chuck all over them.
Then we escaped.
My kids passed out cold when they went to bed probably dreaming of all of the fun and laughs they had. I had nightmares about cardboard pizza and these creepy weirdos.
Till the next birthday party!
Please click on the banner below to give me a vote for funniest mom blog!! I am going to need some cheering up….when my husband finds out I called him Mr. Gaga – he is going to kill me………
And F.U. Friday

st. Ittions Week Takes Shape
Your Kingdom Come, Your Will Be Done'
"Your Kingdom Come, Your Will
Be Done" is the theme of the 1967
World Missions Week when Beth-elites
and missionaries confer dur-ing
the week, November 13-17.
Representatives from Ethio-pia,
Japan, India, the Philip-pines,
Mexico, and Northern
Minnesota will find their way
into a week of meetings, dis-cussions,
and lectures.
John Oase (rhymes with Lois),
missionary to Brazil for four years,
has been engaged in evangelistic
work mainly in and around the
city of Jales, (rhymes with dollies),
in the state of Sao Paulo. The last
five months of their term were
spent in Campinas, where he
taught Old Testament Survey, Bi-ble
Geography, and Homeletics at
the Baptist Bible Institute.
Aften intensive language dur-ing
their first year, Mr and
Mrs. Oase plunged into a work
with young people through a Bi-ble
Club program. During this
period they prepared an effec-tive
25 minute radio program
aired daily by local stations.
A church grew up in Jales with
a membership of 56. A building
was erected and currently prog-ress
is being made on an auxiliary
unit for the caretaker. Mrs. Oase,
a registered nurse served as an
instructor at the city hospital in
Wilfred Head and his wife
first went to Ethiopia in 1957
with intent to prepare much
needed literature for the fast
maturing church. They began
publishing Amharic material on
the arrival of printing equip-ment
set up adjacent to the Door
of Life Hospital in Ambo, Ethi-opia.
When the Heads left for fur-lough
they had prepared Sunday
School lessons for the junior age,
pupil and teacher. These lessons
were being distributed in the de-nominational
Mr. Herbert Skoglund, and his
family have been engaged in an
evangelistic ministry in several
small towns in Wakayama Pre-fecture,
Japan. Meetings were
held in private homes, a good
share of the time being spent
with students, and visitation.
Mr. Skoglund also served on the
board of the Osaka Biblical Semi-nary,
which is a school adminis-tered
by several mission boards
for the training of future church
leaders. One highlight of their re-cent
term was the founding of the
Japan Baptist Church Association,
a major step in the progress of the
mission work.
Working almost exclusively on
the ground level, the Dana Lar-sons
have been engaged in ba-sic
evangelism on the North
Bank of Assam, India. They
have spent much of their time
in markets, shops, homes, and
local places of Hindu worship.
Two churches have sprung up,
one at Gogamukh, and a second
at Bengenagora (Egg Plant
Heights). At these two sites, the
Larsons have operated two medi-cal
dispensaries, catering partic-ularly
to the needs of the many
lepers in the area.
An important part of the Lar-son's
work is contact with the hill
tribesmen who are currently in-volved
in a sweeping revival.
The Hartley Christensons have
completed their first four year
term in the Philippines involved
with the strengthening of local
churches. They have planned a
number of Bible studies in the
town of Balamban where adults
take part in scanning the scrip-ture
and special activities are
planned for the younger people.
The Christensons had a part in
conducting tent campaigns in their
locale. Though neither of them is
medically trained, like many other
missionaries, they have found a
rudimentary understanding of med-cine
a must. They have also been
instrumental in developing a radio
Representatives from Mexico
will be the Wilbur Harings who
have recently returned with a
log of ten years in that field.
Supplementing his basic evan-gelistic
work, Mr. Haring has
become involved in various types
of social work, agriculture, med-cine,
and teaching. Mrs. Haring
has taken on teaching responsi-bilities,
her own five children
among her pupils.
For the last 13 years, Rev. and
Mrs. Ed Viren have spent their
energies working among American
and Canadian Indians on the Grand
Portage Indian Reservation. Mr.
Viren is in direct evangelism, and
Mrs. Viren serves as a nurse as
well as a member of the county
eolPfr— -
school board. The Viren's four
children live with them at Grand
The Virens anticipate a January
return to their field. They are
currently residing in Cook, Min-nesota,
doing deputation work for
the Baptist General Conference.

CLARION editor, Jonathan Lar-son,
has announced that the col-lege
journal will adopt a new dis-tribution
policy. The paper will
no longer use the post office as its
outlet. Strategic locations on cam-pus
will be provided wih distribu-tion
boxes. These boxes will ap-pear
in the Edgren, Bodein, and
Hagstrom lounges. Off campus stu-dents
will be provided with a box
in the coffeeshop.
The editor cites two main rea-sons
prompting this policy change.
The first is an attempt to curb

concert in the Bethel College field-house.
The Ermelers are a German
couple who are presently giving
a concert tour in the United States.
They have played in such cities as
Chicago and Washington, D. C. at
the Philips Collection. According
to a Washington critic, they are a
remarkable couple, and their skill

so will still have ready access. Sec-ondly,
the move is an attempt to
alleviate some of the pressures in

says editor Larson, that this will

In a brief interview, Dr. Donald
Larson, faculty member of the
World Missions Week committee
stated that the theme for this
week's meetings is an answer to
the 'Have fun today, tomorrow may

Martyring Of Che Guevara Reverses
Intention Of Anti-Communist Interests
Political circles in the Organization of American
States stirred to some discussion when the Bolivian
government announced last month that it had killed
Ernesto Che Guevara. Though initially the announce-ment
was brushed off as a publicity stunt by the
Bolivian military, his death was confirmed by many
who saw the body and made positive identification.
Several officers cut off one finger and matched
fingerprints with those of Che to confirm beyond
doubt that the legendary Guevara had met his des-tiny.
To many this may seem a victory for the anti-communist
forces. To the contrary, Che Guevara is
to be feared more after his martyrdom than when he
was still alive. Where Guevara fell, hundreds will
come to pick up the flag of revolution and carry
it through the fusillade of free world opposition.
This proves only one thing, that Communism
feeds on violence. In fact violence is the fountain
from which the communists draw their strength. The
same principle worked for the Christians in the
early years. The martyrdom of many believers was
an impetus to the faith, and not a hindrance to its
growth. Yet the railing anti-communists who infest
the free world have blindly committed themselves
to a military defeat of communism. This is both
theoretically, and practically impossible.
Communist revolution is a revolution of ideas.
An idea cannot be blown up with a bomb. It exists
in the abstract. If the father of an idea is killed, his
idea will spring to prominence for it has been stained
with blood; few ideas are so dear to men, that they
will lay down their lives for it.
The idea of injustice and revolution which Che
fathered among the workers of the tin mines of Bo-livia
and the cane fields of Cuba has rather been
spurred to life by his death.
The death of communism cannot be brought about
prematurely by the use of guns and grenades. It
will come in time, if we only let it, from the inside.
As Gameliel said, that which is untruth cannot per-severe.
As members of the free world, we are con-tributing
to the unnatural life of communism by
giving it an artificial cause for which to fight.
The blood of Ernesto Che Guevara has been raised
aloft to the ' tune of the 'Internationale'. If the Free
world blundered once last month in its battle against
the communists it has blundered a hundred times
over. JPL

Last weekend Dan Johnson, the
Junior senator, journeyed to Grand
Forks, North Dakota, as a repre-sentative
of Bethel College at the
NSA (National Student Associa-tion)
convention for Minnesota and
the Dakotas. At the Senate meet-ing
on Monday nigh Dan present-ed
several items to the governing
body which could prove to be ben-eficial
to us as students if proper
action was sought.
The first item of importance was
a curriculum innovation labeled as
the four-one-four plan. If institu-ted
this concept would drastically
change our present system to con-form
closely to Macalester College,
where there are two semesters a
year of four months duration each.
Between semesters is the Christ-mas
break which lasts for a little
over a month.
This arrangement would place
semester finals before Christmas,
as well as afford 'the student an
extended break. Time would be
available to travel, study or hiber-nate.
Dan also discussed a means to
make money through artist series
productions. In order to provide
the campus with popular but ex-pensive
talen such as Simon and
Garfunkel, a few colleges in an
area would share the expenses of
such a group, and the group would
perform at each institution during
the period of a week. NSA mem-bership
would make this plan con-ceivable.

peared before the Senate pertained
to a report by the Academic Com-mittee
chairman, Rich Runbeck.
His report was composed of an
evaluation of the courses of in-struction
which submitted volun-tarily
to student criticism last
year. Among the course offerings
which received the lowest rating
were biology, general chemistry,
English, and general psychology.
In several of these the instruc-tors'
methods were held in ques-tion,
and many students felt that
they would feel guilty in recom-mending
such a course to a friend.
Mr. Runbeck stated that the re-port
as it now stands is relatively
worthless because the academic
year has already started. He con-tended,
however, that the academic
report would be valuable if sur-veys
and a report were accumula-ted
and printed now and issued to
the student body for reference in
the coming semesters.

Campus Forum Imperative
To Student Power Future Recent developments over the student discount card have
brought to critical proportions the student power issue on cam-pus.
If the discount card controversey is allowed to fester with-out
immediate attention, the future of student power at Bethel
will be in serious jeopardy.
It is of the utmost importance that the student leaders
and administration agree to meet in an open forum in the very
near future. Defensive feelings on the part of the administra-tion,
and the reactionary nature of the Senate is a result of
poor communications between the students and the administra-tion.
The lines of access must be free if the community intends
to deal with this problem effectively. It is not enough to simply
state that these lines are open. They must be frequently exer-cised
to reaffirm common goals, and to throw into light the
real differences which separate the two.
The time and place should be chosen to accommodate the
largest number of Student Association members so that feelings
from the community may be heard by the Administration, and
so the Administration can clarify its position directly to the
Missions Week Unearths
Vital Data For Philosophy
Missions Week programs have stimulated little interest
among the student community in the past few years. Departing
from this unhappy precedent the Missions Week committee
has planned an exciting format for the coming week of con-ference.
There is a definite need for rethinking of the function and
form of missions. It is from student ranks that the leaders for
tomorrow's missions will come, and in a broader sense, each
of the students will need a personal philosophy of mission for
The missionaries that come to our campus during the week
are not here to tell us how or even why. They are here to tell
us what they saw and what they did. From their experience
it will be necessary to forge a philosophy of mission that meets
our generation at the gut level. They will serve largely as
resource material for consideration, organization, analysis, and
from the community may be heard by the Administration, and
hopefully leading to a conclusion.
No one need make apology for the communications barrier
which often separates the lifetime professional missionary from
a campus pulsating with 20th century rythms in thought and
language. The life of the missionary is geared to his environ-ment
and his people. A life of preaching in the market to il-literates
can lead to problems when the missionary is thrust
onto a college campus.
The process of communication can come only if students
bring to the conference an attitude shed of all its intellectual
and emotional pretensions extending itself in empathy to the
missionary as a human being.

the opinion of the CLARION
that the following letter could

of a viewpoint shared by
many Association members.
To the Editor:
"As to leaving the matter to the
Senate, my recollection of the 1964
considerations is that the Dean
of Students and the Student Per-sonnel
Committee clearly informed
the Senate that if it did not act
responsibly on the matter of dress
the Dean and the Committee would
be compelled to act for the well-being
of the Bethel community.

of the Committee, confirms my
recollection." Roy C. Dalton, Act-ing

his letter in the Clarion, October

If this is student power at Beth-el

Dean of Students is a puppeteer
holding the strings of a puppet it
will discard if it does not yield to
its commands and wishes.

Band Builds Its Concert Around
Light Circus Parade Atmosphere
A Circus Parade theme will be
used for the 'pops' concert of the
Bethel College Band which is
scheduled for the College Field-house
Auditorium, West Nebraska
and Asbury, St. Paul, on Friday,
November 10, beginning at 8:00
The Bethel Women's Federation,
an auxiliary group of Bethel alum-ni,
faculty wives, and friends who
sponsor special projects to aid the
school, will co-sponsor the concert
in order to gain funds toward a
goal of $1200 for books. The group
is composed of Twin City women
only, who are members of Baptist
General Conference churches.
Members of the Federation will
be preparing refreshments for this
fast-time event. In a circus at-mosphere
of tables, booths, and
grandstand, clown outfitted mem-bers
of the Bethel Male Chorus,
and Women's Choir will sell cotton
candy, donuts, popcorn, candy,
punch, and coffee, while Federa-tion
members in the booths also
sell these wares.
On the committee which will
handle the refreshments are: Mrs.
Douglas Anderson of Minnehaha
Baptist Church, Minneapolis; Mrs.
Arnold Nelson of Edgewater Bap-tist
Church, Minneapolis; Mrs.
Robert Bergerud of Brooklyn Cen-ter
Baptist; Mrs. Gene Simson of
Bush Lake Baptist, Bloomington;
and Mrs. Julius Whitinger of Trin-ity
Baptist, St. Paul.
The band, under the direction
of Julius Whitinger, will present
`pops' numbers in two program
sections, with a brief intermission.
Among the soloists is C. Edward
Thomas, Associate Professor of
Music, and noted concert pianist;
`Sam' Hood, formerly associated
with the Ringling Brothers Bar-num
and Bailey Circus troupe, who
will be drumming for the fanfare
bearing his name; and David Swed-berg,
a music student at Bethel.
While the Bethel Women's Fed-eration
will be taking a portion of
the concert profits to use for their
book purchases to aid the library
expansion program, the band it-self
will be using a portion toward

Nik Dag Originates As Senate Action
Against Girls' Dormitory Fire Hazard
The true legend of Nik Dag, like
a wooden floor which has become
smooth from endless scrubbings,
comes down to the present gener-ation
as ungrooved and indistinct,
yet decades of Bethelites have re-mained
devotees of its simple and
quiet charm.
It seems that Nik Dag got its
start early in the history of Beth-el
College. Even then the glaring
symptoms for which it became the
prescribed solution were distress-fully
present — bored and lonely
girls clustered around the TV on

realized rightly that conditions
simply could not worsen, so miser-able
were they. Yet, despite the
recognized severity of the problem,
constructive action awaited the
push of some critical precipitating
The specific incident necessita-ting
Nik Dag occurred on one
cold and uneventful Saturday night
in the girls' dorm. There, under-neath
the TV room, where all the
girls had congregated, an unsus-picioned
yellow flame began to
dance and play. Incited by its own
activity, it whirled faster and fast-er
until the whole room in which
it was contained was charged with
its energies (smoke and flame).
An acute nostril, however, up in
the TV room detected the nature
of the activity downstairs, notice
of which was made to the girls.
They, in a wave of commotion in-appropriate
for the small TV room,
began to push their way from the
room. Bumping and shoving, they
forced their way safely to the out-side,
but not without bruises and
scrapes and much panic.
In an emergency meeting which
the Student Senate convened early
the next morning, a statement was
drawn up declaring that "it is es-sential
to the safety of Bethel Col-lege
students to be occupied on
weekend nights , for unusually
large collections of persons in TV
rooms and the like, obviously be-come
'fire hazards. ".
Remedies to the quest for find-ing
occupation for Bethel females
on weekend nights were sought at
all levels. At one point, the Sen-ate
submitted its problems to a
reputed social theorist, who, af-ter
some research and study ar-rived
at what he called, the Nik
Dagian method. As he stated it,
this method was aimed at "provid-ing
Bethel females with their own
power to find occupation for them-selves
instead of being dependent
for this upon the Bethel male pop-ulation."
The Nik Dagian method, since
then, has taken on many varia-tions,
but at its core, it remains
basically unchanged—Bethel girls,
at the sound of bell, bark, or
whistle, rush to secure Bethel
males of their choice (sometimes
2nd and 3rd choice) for a week-end
of non-dormal recreation.
Effectiveness of the Nik Dagian
has been in dispute over the years.
Criticisms that it is too simplistic
and that it imposes an artificial
situation have been voiced. Yet,
its amenability to empirical test-ings—
How many Nik Dag contacts
are repeated and sustained after
application of the method—gives
this method a measure of useful-ness
and reliability. If nothing else,
the method is a success in that it
disperses the weekend clusterings
in the TV room on at least one
cold and fire-prone weekend in

The Bethel Royals played their
last football game of the season
and were snowed under by Valley
City, 18-6. The two teams exchang-ed
first downs in the first quarter,
but could not get near either goal.
The Royals threatened. early, but
the V.C. snagged the first of their
four Selander passes. Midway into
the second quarter, Valley City
sent their end down field from the
Bethel 30 and slipped into the end
zone with the pigskin. The kick
failed, leaving the score 6-0.
Bethel countered with a major
offensive which consisted of aerial
attacks centering around John Car-mean
and ground infiltration of
the enemy defenses by halfback
Dave Moss. The ball came to rest

Helmsman of a ship blown off

no envious position. Though the
Royals' football squad sports only

After two successful years at
slotback under the tutorship of
Dave Cox, 'See' was pressed into
service as a quarterback by head
coach `Mo' Shields at the outset
of this season. Though Al had lim-ited
experience at the quarterback
position in his highschool career,
playing that role in colltge ball
was a drastic change. Playing
under a new system, with a new
coach meant learning a new game.
As his record will show, Al has

an attack yielding three scores

down. A running play failed to
take the ball over, but the V. C.
had moved into the DMZ too soon
and were called for an off side
which gave the Bethel troopers
another chance. This time Al Se-lander
slipped through the line to
tie the score.
The second half began with snow

into consideration all factors, the
V. C. took control of the ball game.

The 1967 football season is history. The record is fact
and the highlights are many. The Royals ended the year with
a 1-7 record which is less than impressive. Numerous injuries,
lack of size, the adopting of a new system and the adjustment
to a new coaching staff were a few of the obstacles that had
to be overcome this year.
The football squad began to jell as a team during mid-season
and showed signs of becoming a competitive unit, but
faded in their last ball game. The only win of the season came
at Northwestern of Wisconsin in a fine defensive effort. The
Homecoming game with Morris and a close loss to Mayville
were two of our better efforts on offense.
The foundation has been laid for a highly competitive
season in 1968. The schedule in 1968 will be the toughest
the Royals have faced in the history of Bethel football. The
coaching staff is looking forward to good things for 1968.
With the incoming freshmen, on-campus prospects, and the
returning 1967 squad members, Royal football for 1968 looks
promising in the face of some stiff competition.
Your continued support is necessary, and your support in
1967 has been greatly appreciated! Bethel athletics are on the
move; get behind and push!

text: Fonterra Opens Office in India November 28, 2012 06:38 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By MILK Editors Email New Zealand dairy giant places dedicated leadership to develop opportunities in the rapidly growing Indian market. Source: Fonterra news release New Zealand-based Fonterra Co-operative Group Ltd., the world's largest dairy exporter, announced yesterday it will be opening an office in Delhi and appointing Hamish Gowans as General Manager for Fonterra in India. It will be the co-operative's first operating office in the country and the first time Fonterra has employed its own India-based staff. These developments follow Fonterra's strategy refresh in March. Fonterra's office in Delhi will officially open in 2013. Kelvin Wickham, Fonterra President for Greater China and India, said the opening of the Delhi office and Gowans' appointment will allow Fonterra to gain a better understanding of this important dairy market. "India's dairy industry is growing rapidly," Wickham said. "With 20 million more mouths to feed every year and an increasingly affluent population, the demand for high quality dairy nutrition continues to grow at a rapid pace – annual dairy consumption is forecast to reach around 180-200 million tonnes by the end of the decade. "Today India produces around one sixth of the world's milk and almost all of this is consumed locally," added Wickham. "The country has a large, complex dairy industry and, while Fonterra has developed a strong knowledge of the country's dairy environment, it is clear we need to have dedicated leadership on the ground to further strengthen relationships and develop opportunities. Gowans has more than 10 years of experience in the dairy industry and a deep understanding of the dairy business. "He is very well placed to guide Fonterra in India as we explore opportunities in this fast-growing dairy market," said Wickham. For the last three years, Gowans has managed Fonterra's ingredient business into India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Malaysia and Singapore. He joined the Kiwi Co-operative Dairies as a graduate, moving up the ranks to hold a number of senior sales and product manager roles. Gowans said Fonterra and New Zealand has a long-established relationship with India. "The first New Zealand dairy products arrived in India in 1885," said Gowans. "We have been supplying dairy ingredients to Indian customers for generations and have strong relationships across the country. Establishing a presence on the ground will allow us to explore further opportunities in the world's fastest growing dairy market. We are committed to deepening our knowledge of the local dairy environment and want to work alongside the local industry to build the supply of high quality dairy nutrition to India." Back to news
