Regional conferences are held
three times during the school year
when the problems of the schools
are discussed and members be-come
acquainted with governments
and various activities in other col-leges.
The Bethel student senate
sent several delegates to the re-gional
conference held at Macal-ester
College last Friday and Sat-urday.
These delegates — Wendell
Anderson, Norris Magnuson, Roger
Hedberg, Marilyn Anderson, Caro-lyn
Clark and Barbara Olander-became
acquainted with the NSA
set-up, and felt that Bethel would
benefit by joining the NSA.
Following are some of the ad-vantages
which are gained through
joining NSA:
1. The National Student Con-gress
gives an opportunity for ev-ery
school to have a voice in na-tional
deliberations and also gives
each school a chance to see how
other student governments are run.
2. There is an extensive travel
program offered by NSA. Students
can travel abroad for study, work
or sight-seeing through the special
rates offered by NSA. Over 800
students traveled abroad in the
year 1951-52.
3. NSA prints a wide number
of publications dealing with var-ious
phases of student life which
are available and helpful to mem-ber
4. There is a Student Affairs
Commission set up to answer
questions pertaining to all sorts
of campus activities.
The winners of last year's con-test
were Barbara Olander in po-etry
and Wendell Anderson in or-atory.
The coach for this year is
Paul Grabill, assistant professor in
English. Entries from any regu-larly
enrolled college students will
be accepted through May 17.
President Wingblade will pre-sent
the awards after the finals
which are being held in the Sem-inary
chapel on May 25. Judges for
the finals will be Deans Edwin
Omark and Carl Lundquist, Anton
Pearson, Wendell Anderson, Vir-ginia
Preliminaries will take place in
room 204 of the college building.
Oratory tryouts wil be held Tues-day,
May 18, at 3:30 p.m. with
Maurice Schultz, Walfred Peterson,
and Dalphy Fagerstrom as judges.
Poetry tryouts, judged by Mildred
Bisgrove, William Bergstrom, and
Maurice Lawson, will be Thursday,
May 20, at 3:30 p.m.
5. Monthly bulletins are printed
informing students of new helps
offered them by NSA.
6. A national newspaper is
printed with news from schools
throughout the country.
7. Student discount cards are
offered through NSA. In the ma-jor
cities of the country, Minne-apolis
included, these discount
cards are good for a 10 to 30%
discout in leading stores.
Voice Staciesits to
P 4eserd Recital Mao/ 17
A student vocal recital under
the direction of Roger Bailey, in-structor
in music, will be present-ed
Monday, May 17, at 8:00 p.m.
in the college chapel.
Selections of songs both sac-red
and secular will include some
in German, Czech, and Italian as
well as English. Cathrine Bab-cock
and Gloria Svendsen will be
the accompanists.
An effort is being made to
break the usual formality and
bring the participants closer to
the audience in a classroom at-mosphere.
The following students will
perform: Dale Nystrom, Fred
Thomas, Alden Moberg, Adam Hu-ber,
Nancy Swanson, Marilyn
Hagstrom, Allan Mesko, Adella
Bennett, Ruth Edwards, David

Senate Approves Membership In
National Student Association_,
Last Tuesday, the student senate, on approval of the faculty-student
affairs committee. voted that Bethel should become a member of the
National Student Association. This organization is aimed at helping all
member colleges and universities in their educatonal and social projects;
it strives to develop academic freedom in the school and aims at secur-ing
democratic rights in student governments.
Policies of the NSA are determined by the National Student Con-gress
which meets annually. At this congress there are representatives
from every member school who participate in practical training sessions
and who deliberate policies of the NSA. Bethel will send a delegate to
this year's National Congress which will meet this summer in Ames,

THE CLARION Friday, May 14, 1954
7114044, Kids!!
A sincere vote of thanks and ap-preciation
is due to Wendell An-derson.
this year's president of the
student senate.
Wendell, seminary junior, has
given unstintingly of his time and
efforts to the cause of the job be-stowed
upon him, and has, in his
capacity of president, done a job
worthy of praise. Dashing from one
meeting to the next, checking on
councils, on chairmen, on cabinet
members — all have been done in
an untiring manner. Again, Wendy,
thanks a million!
To the members of the cabinet,
we also say thanks Their work
has been good and their efforts
tireless. Norris Magnuson, vice-president,
Carolyn Clark, record-ing
secretary, _Beverly Mullin, cor-responding
secretary, Jim Young,
financial secretary, and Harris
Paulson, treasurer, are the ones
who have fulfilled their positions
on the cabinet and are to be com-mended.
I Promise ...
by Stretch
Sometime ago one of the boys told me that I was running or am
running or will be running for the president or undersecretary or some-thing
of the Student Senate or German Club or Student Wive's Associ-ation
or something. If I'm still running, here's what I'll do if I'm elected.
1. No 8:00 classes.
Eight o'clock classes are the roots of many academic evils. The av-erage
student is bound to sleep through one every so often. The first
offense is sealed with a resolution never to do it again.' The resoultion
is repeatedly broken; a weakened conscience is the result. This result-ant
weakened conscience in turn taints every other area of school life.
And besides, I don't like to get up that early.
2. Roller skating in the library.
It has often been suggested that there be roller skating in the li-brary
after hours. The chairs and tables can be conveniently stacked on
the east side to allow plenty of free space. Skates can be rented at the
reserve desk and also extension cords for the record player (so much a
foot). This project would be turned over to the social council.
3. A lonely hearts column in the CLARION.
This column would be handled by the advertising manager of the
CLARION. Special discounts will be given to upperclassmen. The rates
will be one dollar per column inch (pictures, if desired, will be fifty
cents extra). Results not guaranteed.
4. Reorganization of the awards system.
No political platform would be complete unless it reorganized the
awards system. That's just traditional. Under my system three kinds
of awards will be given. (1) A motorbike to the president of BWA; (2)
A free, all-expense-paid vacation to Beverly Hills for the chairman of
the cultural council (by railroad); (3) Two 1,000 scholarships to the co-feature
editors of the CLARION.
These are the four points of my election campaign if I'm not al-ready
elected or not already not elected. In this case if I'm not on the
nominating committee again next year I'll run then too for the same
office whatever it is.
Song at Midnight
by Marilyn Hagstrom
'Twas almost midnight, and somewhere in eastern Montana our
Greyhound bus glided through the darkness like a wounded moose.
The nocturnal stillness was broken only by the plaintive calls of
)night-birds or the moan of a semi crawling up the hill ahead of us.
Through a half-opened window flitered the fragrance of diesel exhaust.
Within the bus all was quiet. Only a few soft mutterings arose occasion-ally
to indicate that Dorothy Stipanuk was still trying to memorize
"In Memoriam," or that the boys up front were making bids for a
new hand of rook. The atmosphere was drowsy, and my seatmate's
knees boring into my ribs reminded me that he had settled himself
'down to sleep. Suddenly, through the quiet air floated a tinkle of
ukelele strings, and Marilyn Hagstrom's soft soprano voice crooned
hems of Thought
by President Wingblade
A few years ago the committee raising money for the fight against
polio staged a "New-Name Contest" for Minnesota, with high prizes for
the best name suggested.
Thousands of names were sent in, each with a dollar or more con-tribution.
The name finally chosen for Minnesota was "The Theatre of
the Seasons."
That was good! One reason why we like this state is that is is not
like California, or Florida, or Alaska. It has four seasons — spring,
summer, fall, and winter — though spring may come late.
Well, life is like that — divided into various seasons, but neverthe-less
each season has its pleasures and rewards. In fact, each season can
be "the best season" in its turn.
The radiance of spring is wonderful; the full bloom and maturity
of summer even more so. Autumn, with its fruitage heaped high, is cer-tainly
grand, but then to sit by the fire and count the blessings, even
while the North wind is howling is not bad at all, for the warmth and
comfort of the home sanctuary, contrasting with the blustering outside,
is all the more appreciated.
After all it is pretty much a matter of the heart and spirit. It is
true, as Wordsworth regrets, that there seems to have "passed away a
glory from the earth," yet a new glory and a more real reality may be
our portion in winter.
We know that there are sorrows aplenty for children and youth as
Charles Dickens and George Elliot have pointed out, and middle life
may have its crushing burdens and heartaches. And just as nature has
provided special beauties and blessings for each season, so God has made
provision for joy and victory for all ages — and that victory is in Christ.
How true it is that without Him in the heart, the loveliest spring
day can be very dark, and the lightest foot of youth can be a very heavy
"How tedious and tasteless the hours
When Jesus no longer I see;
Sweet prospects, sweet birds, and sweet flowers
Have lost all their sweetness for me.
The midsummer sun shines but dim;
The fields strive in vain to look gay;
But when I am happy in Him
December is as pleasant as May."
Weather News:
Spring Takes Effect
by Stretch
About the most recent fad and certainly the most expensive which has
been revived at Bethel in the past few months is that of engagements.
The way I understand it is that the fellow works real hard at Christmas
time selling Christmas cards or Burma Shave or something. Then he
uses all the money he earned and borrows all the money his roommate
earned selling Christmas cards or Burma Shave or something, and then
he buys a fancy diamond ring (or nice rhinestone—depending on wheth-er
or not his roommate sold Christmas cards or Burma Shave or some-thing).
Then he gives this ring to his girl who likes it and shows it to
everybody. Sometimes the girl cries (I think that's when the fellow's
roommate didn't sell Christmas cards or Burma Shave or something.)
Then the fellow and girl can hold hands everywhere. Then they get
married and forget about his roommate. Some of my friends who did
this (engaged, not married) just awhile ago are:
Genevieve Sutton and Ray Brace — April 4
Joy Shogren and Bailey Anderson — April 15
Alice Predmore and Dan Helmich — April 17
Audrey Kozak and Jim Erickson — March 22
Nancy Swanson and Cal Fernlund — May 10
Shirley Knutson and Lee Giddings — May 7

Chapel Choir's Chaucer
by Rip Moore
Rip Moore, the self-appointed Poet Limerate of the Chapel Choir,
returned from choir trip with a hatful of his latest works. Since he has
no hat, he had to pin them to his hair, which led to a false report that
he puts his hair up in papers like Fred Stearns.
Poet Moore, interviewed by CLARION reporters, explained his
art: "In common with Shakespeare. Byron, Shelley, Keats, and Roger
Moberg, my favorite subject is girls. I only write under inspiration.
In my normal state of mind I can't write poetry at all, in fact I can't
even talk straight. But in a state of inspiration—I'll give you an
example. I was sitting in the back seat of the bus when Dorothy
Larson fell out the window. She's so small no one missed her until
we had gone five miles. When the bus went back to pick her up
,Nancy Swanson fined her a quarter for being late. Well, I was the
only one who saw her fall out, and instantly the lines of this poem
flashed through my mind:
Where out of the narrow gate Dorothy Lar
Plunging a murk luciferian star
Turbulate richly
Burrows down ditchly
Sighing in gore carried home in a jar.
"I consider this the finest thing I have ever written. It is not only
;simple and melodious, but also is almost as hard to understand as
T. S. Eliot."
Rip gave us permission to use his poems after we promised to put
his name at the beginning of every paragraph in this article. Here are
some of the more intelligible ones;

Buy Used Texts
The Bethel Bookstore is now
gathering text book information
for next fall quarter which will
be ready by final exam week.
This will benefit students be-cause:
1) they may bring texts
in as soon as finals are completed
to be placed on the student ex-change
shelf. When they are sold
in the fall, cash will be given to
the students; or 2) if the book
is not going to be used next year,
the bookstore has buying price
lists from three wholesale buy-ers.
These buyers will purchase
the books immediately.
Although there is probably a
better price for exchange books
in the bookstore, discounting
titles can easily be sold to the
wholesale dealers.

Royals Take Another
Season's First Victory
On Northwestern Schools
The Royals punched their way to their initial diamond victory on
May 10 in Como Park against Northwestern Schools.
The hometown sluggers scored six big runs while holding the
Eagles to a single tally. This game also marked the first mound appear-ance
of the port-side darkhorse Al Stahnke. He pitched steady ball
through the entire contest and showed an ability to be tough in the
clutches. This contest also marked the first time a pitcher from Bethel
has been awarded adequate support to supplement his mound efforts.
The big guns in the slugging department were little Dale Larson
and Dave Boes, both freshman, who hit triples for the winning cause.
There was definitely more support in the field as can be evidenced by
the lack of errors, and consequently a lower score for the opponents.
No single player can be named as the hero of the game as it was
definitely a team victory.

Corner Snelling and Como Ayes.
The Royals defeated scrappy Bethany College of Mankato last
Monday in the Como diamond by a score of 3-2. This marked the sec-ond
consecutive victory for the Bethel Boys.
Bethany, diamond victors over Mankato State Teachers College
and Concordia College, were limited to four hits by Al Stahnke who
collected his second win in as many assignments.
The Bethany boys collected the
first tally early in the contest.
The Royals rallied and until the
ninth inning the scare stood at
2-2. The break came when catch-er
Brunzel got to the first sack
on an inside pitch which was so
far inside that it conked him. He
trotted into scoring position on a
passed ball. Outfielder Anthony
advanced him to third on an in-field
out. He scampered home for
the winning tally on the second
ground-out of the inning.
Dave Boes, who is providing
himself to be a valuable hitter,
again was the slugger for the day
with a long triple. The team in
their winning effort committed
only two errors, which was a far
cry from the Augsburg game. As
in the Northwestern game the
key-note was team play with each
member of the team contributing
along this line. Again the support
behind double winner Stahnke
was commendable.
Now, after a shaky start, the
Royal baseball team is rounding
into shape. The initial contest
with Augsburg, which ended up
as a 16-7 nightmare, was a grue-some
slaughter as the home boys
couldn't do anything right. The
next game, with Concordia Col-lege,
again ended in defeat by a
score of 3-2. However, the abil-ity
of the Bethel boys to keep
the score down was encouraging
to coach Lundeen. Now, after win-ning
the last two contests, coach
Lundeen feels that the boys are
coming along in fine shape.
Win Three
The Bethel tennis team, after be-ginning
the season with a defeat
at the hands of Macalester, has
taken three consecutive contests.
The season record this far stands
at 3-1 for the home racketeers.
Hemline seems to be the favor-ite
prey for the Royal men. The
first meeting found the Royals vic-torious
by a score of 6-3. Then in
a meet which weather-wise should
have been played in snow suits,
the determined Bethel team again
slammes its way into the lead and
ended up on the long end of an-other
6-3 score.
Sandwiched between the Ham-line
Meets was the Royal's first
meet of the season with Augsburg
which they won 5-2.
Berg, Lee, and freshman Paul
Sandberg won their singles games.
The doubles combinations of Berg

were again victorious.

How to Complain to a Cruise Line and Get Resultsby Paul Motter | 02.13.12
A poll of our readers finds surprises in the most effective ways to get satisfaction for problems -- including financial compensation.
It wasn't that long ago that the name Brenda Moran became well-known in cruise circles as the lady who complained so much that Royal Caribbean banned her from sailing on its ships.
Many cruise fans were upset with her situation -- not because she got banned, but exactly the opposite. They refused to believe she had any legitimate complaints and were upset that the cruise line had given her any financial compensation in previous cases. These cruise fans are correct; people who whine endlessly, like Brenda Moran, are only abusing the system to the detriment of people with legitimate complaints.
So in the interest of readers who may someday have an honest gripe on a cruise ship, we present the best way to register a legitimate complaint and get results from a cruise line.
This is NOT Complaining for Fun & Profit I recently ran across a web site selling a book entitled "How to Complain for Fun and Profit." The author claimed he had once written to the CEO of Ritz-Carlton about a bad hotel stay and was given a free week in Hawaii in a suite with all expenses and even meals gratis. This is not a lesson on complaining for fun and profit.
I did not object to the author getting compensation for a complaint, but I certainly do object to the title. It is not acceptable to make unfounded complaints to any company simply to finagle free things they might give to you as "compensation."
If you choose to "complain for fun and profit," you could end up like Brenda Moran, getting your name dragged through the mud and your favorite vacation company banning you for life. And you would deserve it.
Our goal is to show you what our readers showed us -- that cruise lines do listen to real complaints. And if they see you as a valuable customer, they can be surprisingly generous in compensating you for your troubles.
This IS About Registering Legitimate Complaints Here is the message board where readers shared their cruise compensation experiences with us. (link is Making Legitimate Complaints.). It's important to understand that the cruise lines do recognize and care about something that is truly not right for you. At least a dozen people told us stories about how they found something wrong on a cruise, registered a complaint, and were eventually compensated.
The rate of success for these readers in getting compensation was astonishing. We expected to see perhaps a fifty-fifty split between resolved and unresolved complaints, but almost every story we read showed us they had received compensation. And they all followed almost exactly the same procedure.
Step One -- Be Specific We get a fair number of complaint letters here, and one thing we notice with incredible predictability is how they always include a laundry list of every little thing they could think of to complain about.
These lists are almost funny in their predictability. You can always count on:
- A smell that permeated the hallways
- A random hair in the bathroom not belonging to the current occupants
- A rug stain
- Inedible food served in the buffet area (not all of it, just certain items)
- Noise from somewhere they didn't want to hear
- A rude staff member who, upon hearing about the horrible cruise these people were having, did absolutely nothing to help them except apologize.
There are always plenty of little things to complain about, but an effective complaint (i.e., one that will get results) is not a laundry list of everything that went wrong. It is OK to make a list of the real complaints, but do not go beyond turning in the list and then dropping those complaints. Certainly do not demand compensation for every little thing. To complain effectively means specifying which problem demands attention, and to address only that issue as something deserving of compensation.

Included in the Xbox One Stereo Headset package:
Note Controllers connected to a PC via Bluetooth do not support Xbox headsets. If you're connected to your PC via Bluetooth, connect your headset directly to your PC. See below for supported scenarios.

Follow these steps to ready your Xbox One Stereo Headset for use with your console.
Note To use the Xbox One Stereo Headset on another device, such as a Windows phone, just plug the headset's 3.5-mm cable into a device that has a 3.5-mm audio jack.
This section describes how to use the buttons on the Xbox One Stereo Adapter to control your Stereo Headset.
|Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter buttons
Game/Chat balance: The two buttons on the left side of the Stereo Headset Adapter adjust the mix of game audio versus chat audio. At default, the mix is 50/50, but you can adjust it to anywhere from 100/0 to 0/100. For example, if you want more game volume than chat volume, press the top button with the controller icon until you reach the level you want. A tone will sound when you have reached 100 percent. To increase the chat volume, press the bottom button with the person icon on the left side of the Stereo Headset Adapter.
Mute: This (central) button mutes your chat audio so other users can't hear you. It doesn't mute game/music/app audio. This button has an orange LED to indicate when you are muted. The LED lights up only if a headset is plugged into the adapter.
Volume: The volume up and down buttons (on the right) control all audio coming to your headset, including game and chat audio. If you don't want to increase both game and chat audio at the same rate, adjust the game/chat audio balance.
If you have a question or problem using the Xbox One Stereo Headset, see the following topics.
Stereo Headset isn't working
If your Xbox One Stereo Headset isn't functioning correctly, check the following:
There's too much game or chat audio
If you have both game and chat audio plugged into the adapter, use the Game balance or Chat balance button to get more of the desired audio type.
Can I have chat through my Kinect as well as my headset?
No. When a headset is detected, the console assumes you want that audio to be private and automatically turns off Kinect chat audio.
I also hear audio through my TV
The Stereo Headset Adapter doesn't know if you're using your headset just for chat or for all audio, so TV audio is not automatically muted when you're using the adapter. You must manually adjust your TV audio volume.
Your Stereo Headset is broken
If your Xbox One Stereo Headset is broken, it should be replaced. To order a replacement, go to the Xbox Online Service Center.
Repair or warranty questions? See Xbox One repair: Frequently asked questions.

This is the first month that I am participating in the Crazy Cooking Challenge sponsored by Tina from Mom's Crazy Kitchen. I thought it would be fun to try one of these challenges, but I didn't realize how much work it really would be. This month's challenge was to find a chocolate cake on another person's blog, bake the cake, and post about it.
I looked at a quite a few blogs before I found the cake that I wanted to make. Finally I found the cake at One Perfect Bite. If you are a chocolate lover then this cake is a must for you to try. The cake is rich and very chocolaty, it has this whipped cream filling that I think goes wonderfully with the cake, and then there is the frosting. The frosting is almost like eating ice cream with this cake, YUM. I have to say it one more time if you love chocolate you must try this cake… you will love it.
The cake is not only two layers it is three layers, now I have never made a three layer cake and so I found it a little tricky assembling the cake. So when you look at my pictures the cake may not look perfect, but that was okay since it tasted lovely. Anyway I think the taste out weighs the way it looks.
So please visit Mary's blog at One Perfect Bite, you won't be sorry. The name of her blog says it all, she has wonderful recipes and beautiful pictures.
Perfect Cake Cake (Source One Perfect Bite)
1 cup unsifted unsweetened cocoa

Eliza and Judy Dushku to keynote 'DEIS Impact Wednesday
Mother-daughter team deeply involved in effort to heal child soldiers
In Hollywood, she's Eliza Dushku, actress, star of "Bring it On," "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "True Lies." Half a world away in northern Uganda, she's Eliza Dushku, social activist, a co-star with her mother, Judy, in a real-life drama in which she's helping to heal the people of a region terrorized by years of civil war.
"I can't think of many places I've been in the last few years that have given me so much happiness and contentment," Eliza says. "There's no greater joy than being with my mother and helping the people of Gulu."
The Dushkus will visit Brandeis on Feb. 6 to deliver the keynote address at 'DEIS Impact, the university's second annual festival of social justice (Feb. 1-11). Their talk, "Uganda by Way of Boston and Hollywood: A Social Justice Journey," begins at 7 p.m. in Levin Ballroom. The event is free and open to the public, but tickets, which are available at the Brandeis box office in the Shapiro Campus Center, are required.
Eliza's connection to Uganda began when she joined one of her mother's Suffolk University classes on a two-week trip to the war-torn African nation in 2009. The students wanted to learn about the rehabilitation of child soldiers, young boys and girls who had been taken from their families to fight against the government for the Lord's Resistance Army and serve as sex slaves.
"I'd heard this phrase child soldiers before, but I didn't know what that meant or how that was really possible," Eliza says. "When you Google 'child soldiers,' it's pretty terrifying."
The Dushkus were shocked to hear the stories of these children – about 40 percent of whom were girls -- but also impressed by the resiliency of the people. Judy, with Eliza's help, founded THRIVEGulu, a not-for-profit organization that is building and operating a center in Gulu to support the emotional healing and rehabilitation of traumatized victims.
"I decided that I had been teaching for 45 years, but I wanted to do something on the ground to really make a difference," Judy says.
THRIVEGulu offers programs aimed at helping residents overcome their trauma through arts, filmmaking and storytelling. It also offers literacy and computer instruction classes designed to help them rebuild their lives.
Both Eliza and Judy have built close relationships with the people of Gulu. Eliza befriended Rose, a young woman with four little children who was kidnapped at the age of 9 and lived in the bush with Lord's Resistance Army leader Joseph Kony for 10 years.
"We helped her build a small house for her family," Eliza says. "But more than building the house, it was the experience of spending a week and a half with her. She ran around with us and helped us collect bricks to build the house. She's a young woman like me in many ways."
Judy has become so friendly with one woman, Lucy Owl, that Lucy named her daughter Judith. Lucy had been abducted with her brother; she watched him die when he fell off a log while they were crossing a river and the soldiers would not let her attempt to save him.
"When I first met her, I thought that she would never recover," Judy says. "When I came back the next year, she had started a group called Beads of Hope, which distributes beads in the United States. She also teaches women's empowerment, and she has a Facebook site. She's just so full of life and energy."
As part of 'DEIS Impact, students, professors, clubs, and academic departments have organized nearly 40 different events, including talks, interactive workshops, screenings, performances, exhibits and discussions. Programs range from a former death row inmate speaking about his experience to a discussion of business ethics.

Some of the original designs are based in pre-Hispanic cultures that are transformed into contemporary jewelry made of silver. This piece belongs to the collection "El Árbol de la Vida", which represents where the three levels of the cosmos, the underground, earth and heaven unite, as well as the earth's four elements: earth, wind, water and fire.
These are the .925 sterling silver "Árbol del Amor" small earrings with heart shaped leaves.

When this season's wheat growing in Agoura Hills began, on the next to last day of November, I scavenged a handful of seed, from a bit that was spilled on the ground, and planted it in two pots in the backyard of our Los Angeles home.
Growing a bit faster than our wheat in Agoura Hills, it has become a control group to watch and measure.
At the end of February, the first seed heads emerged from the FLAG leaf. Actual kernels are visible. Quite thrilling, with many of the plants swelling, indicating that more heads are about to come out.
Back when I pocketed the spilled seed, I was not sure whether it was Sonora, Red Fife, or Glenn, the three varieties planted on November 29th. Now that the heads are coming into view we can identify them as Glenn because of the beautiful, long, and abundant awns – or beards – up above the emerging heads. (Sonora has no awns and Red Fife has only two or three short ones.)
So our control group, covering a formidable one-ten-thousandth of an acre, is showing its stuff and, depending on how warm it is, could have ripe kernels of delicious wheat in 3 or 4 weeks.
The question is: when will the Glenn Wheat planted in Agoura Hills be ready? Checking a couple of those plants, the inflorescence – or developing seed head – is well advanced up the pseudo stem, with only about an inch more to go.
|Developing seed head within Glenn Wheat pseudo-stem
In two or three weeks they are likely to begin showing their seed heads, and the kernels could mature in a month.

Though just 30km north of Schleswig, the commercial port of FLENSBURG is centuries apart in atmosphere. Pressed hard against the border of former owner Denmark, the "southernmost town of Scandinavia" is shaped by the deep-water port through which it has prospered; first as property of the Danish Crown – for centuries Flensburg outranked Copenhagen – then the German; it was claimed by Prussia in 1864, then threw in its lot officially in a plebiscite in 1920. Labels of cult local brew Flensburger Pilsner, with their royal Danish lions and merchant ship, sum up the history as succinctly as any icon. The trading past is also evident in the warehouse courtyards that burrow behind street-fronts, relics from an eighteenth-century rum trade founded on raw spirit imported from the Danish West Indies (now the US Virgin Islands).
Notwithstanding these pockets and the yuppification of wharves on the east bank, Flensburg has few airs or graces. It is a typical small port: knockabout, straightforward and host to a weekend pub-club scene fuelled by the local brew. Everything of interest in Flensburg is in the Altstadt on the west bank of the Flensburger Förde harbour.

M.L. Carr won two NBA championships while a member of the Boston Celtics. He won a national championship at Guilford College and is considered one of the best prep basketball players in North Carolina High School Athletic Association history.
There�s only one team � at any level � Carr will admit that was better than any he played for, though.
DEEP RUN � M.L. Carr won two NBA championships while a member of the Boston Celtics. He won a national championship at Guilford College and is considered one of the best prep basketball players in North Carolina High School Athletic Association history.
There�s only one team � at any level � Carr will admit that was better than any he played for, though.
�I say this 40-some years later, but South Lenoir had a better team than ours,� said Carr, a star on the Wallace-Rose Hill squad and future that handed the Rebels � as South Lenoir�s sports teams were known in the 1960s � their only loss in 1968-69. �I�ve never said that about the Lakers or about the Sixers, but that South Lenoir team was a better team than we were.�
It�d be hard to argue with a man who later went on to coach the Celtics and work in the team�s front office. The Rebels won their first 25 games � including three in a row against Carr�s Wallace-Rose Hill squad � and did so in commanding fashion.
The 1968-69 South Lenoir Rebels, coached by the legendary Tom Salter and led by the senior quartet of Herman Davis, Jimmy Smith, Cobb Turner and Larry Avery and junior John �Slick� Byrd, averaged 78.5 points a game while only surrendering 57.1. All five Rebels starters averaged more than 10 points per game, led by Davis� 16 points per game, Byrd�s 15.9 and Smith�s 13.6.
They set the school record of 113 points in a game against East Duplin and scored 100 points or more five times that season.
For their efforts, the Rebels will be recognized by the Kinston/Lenoir County Sports Hall of Fame during induction ceremonies for the Class of 2012 at the Woodmen Community Center at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday. Tickets are available for the ceremony at The Free Press and the Woodmen Center.
There has never a basketball season for South Lenoir like the 1968-69 season � Salter said there were up to seven busloads of fans that traveled to every away game. If you wanted to see the Rebels in Deep Run, you had to be in the gym two hours before the varsity boys tipped off.
�We had a good group of young men playing on that team and an excellent coach who instilled fundamentals of game in us,� Byrd said. �Mr. Salter is a fine man but an even better coach.�
Smith, a 2010 inductee of the Kinston/Lenoir County Sports Hall of Fame for his coaching and playing career at South Lenoir, said he �cherishes� his memories of that particular Rebels squad.
�Herman Davis was our leading scorer, but he was a blue-collar worker for us,� said Smith, a four-sport star in his time at South Lenoir and a man who went on to coach the Blue Devils to nearly 1,000 victories in six separate sports. �John Byrd was only a junior, but he was the best shooter on the team. Larry Avery was quicker than anyone we played against at that time and Cobb Turner was the leaper on our team.�
The Rebels believed in the run-and-gun offense � they simply out-ran and out-hustled their opponents every game.
�As far as hustle was concerned, (the Rebels) played a ballgame and a half when the other club was playing one game,� Linwood Hartsell, then an assistant basketball coach for South Lenoir, told Jack Stephens of The Free Press in a season wrap-up article that was printed on March 11, 1969. Like Smith, Hartsell was inducted into the Kinston/Lenoir County Sports Hall of Fame in 2010.
South Lenoir easily defeated archrival North Lenoir that season by more than 20 points in a game Smith remembers Salter refusing to come into the locker room at halftime because he was so disappointed in the Rebels� first-half performance.
That North Lenoir Buccaneers (as they were known in the 1960s) team went on to beat Grainger High School and legendary Red Devils/Kinston Vikings head coach Paul Jones by 18 points that season. Since South Lenoir was only a 2A team and Grainger/Kinston was a 4A squad, the Rebels (and later the Blue Devils) and Vikings didn�t play for another 30 years until a Christmas tournament at Lenoir Community College in the late 1990s.
�We considered ourselves the county champions that year,� Smith said with a laugh.
Byrd agreed with Smith�s assessment.
�I kind of wish we could�ve played (Grainger),� Byrd said. �It would�ve been a lot of fun.�
Salter said the 1968-69 Rebels were a model squad.
�Those young men averaged more than 20 wins a season, but never missed a practice and never complained,� Salter said. �If I told them to run one mile, they�d run two miles.
�They�re as fine a group of young men as I was ever around.�
After sprinting to a 25-0 record, including two regular season victories and a conference tournament championship against Carr�s WRH squad, the Rebels and Bulldogs faced off for a fourth and final time in a district tournament championship game in Jacksonville.
Carr missed his first three shots before connecting on 17 straight from the field to lead the Bulldogs to an 83-69 win against the Rebels.
�We couldn�t figure out a way to get past them the first three times,� Carr recalled. �But while they won the first three battles, we eventually won the war.�
One factor against South Lenoir was that the last three games against WRH were played in a 10-day period.
�Playing them three times in that short of a period was tough,� Smith said. �I couldn�t jump higher than M.L., I could only try to block him out but I held him to 39 points.�
Carr had a gentle reminder for Smith.
�Tell Jimmy it was only 38 points,� Carr said with a laugh. �It took everything we could muster to beat that team.�
Byrd recalled the officiating was different than the previous three meetings.
�It was a loosely called game and evidently just wasn�t our time,� Byrd said. �The law of averages simply caught up with us.�
Despite the ending to the dream season, it remains the best basketball season in South Lenoir High School history � and sets up a date with the Kinston/Lenoir County Sports Hall of Fame on Saturday.
�Please tell them congratulations on their recognition,� Carr said on Tuesday. �They�re definitely worthy of being in the Hall of Fame.�

Nutt, who turns 60 in 2013, has played a pivotal role in the development of Jupiter in the 17 years he has worked at the company.
While Nutt has found the going tough at times since the credit crunch, his long-term performance is impressive and his Jupiter High Income fund has returned 352.2% since its launch in 1996 compared with 161% by the IMA UK Equity & Bond Income sector average, making it the top performer.
Meanwhile, the Jupiter Income Trust, which Nutt took control of on 1 May 2000, has returned 109.1% against 87% for the IMA UK Equity Income sector average and double the 52.3% produced by the FTSE All Share Index over that period.
Whitmore will assume control of the Income Trust on 1 January after building a strong reputation on the Jupiter UK Special Situations fund, which has delivered top quartile returns over one and three years and top decile returns over five years.
The investment style on the fund will not change dramatically as Whitmore, like Nutt, is a value manager with a contrarian bias.
Meanwhile Philip Matthews will take charge of the High Income fund on 1 July and remain deputy on the Income fund alongside managing the Jupiter Growth and Income fund, with Ariel Bezalel continuing to manage the bond component of the fund.
Like Whitmore, Matthews has delivered top quartile returns on his fund over one and three years and top decile over five.
In an announcement Jupiter lauded Nutt's influence on the firm, especially the role he has played mentoring the firm's rising stars such as and Matthews, along with Alastair Gunn who Nutt will continue to manage the Jupiter Dividend & Growth investment trust alongside for the foreseeable future.
In a statement Nutt said: 'I am proud of what we have achieved at Jupiter in the past 17 years. The company has grown in strength during the volatile market conditions of the past 12 years.
'Delivering outperformance for investors over the long term remains the focus for the fund management team and it is pleasing to have been involved in the development of so many talented managers who are now producing outperformance for clients on their own funds. I am looking forward to continuing to work with my colleagues over the coming year and to hand over my funds to Ben and Philip.'
Jupiter chief executive Edward Bonham Carter added: 'Anthony and I have worked together for almost 17 years and in this time he has made a tremendous contribution to the company, delivering outperformance for long-term holders of his funds and providing support and guidance for up and coming managers.
'We are fortunate to have a strong team in Ben and Philip to take over his portfolios and that is due in no small part to Anthony's efforts. I am delighted he will continue to work for Jupiter into 2014 and would like to thank him for the continued commitment he has shown to the company.'

Without a doubt my favorite catalogue is Wisteria. And it's been that way for years now.

Wisteria is always up on the latest trends, anything you are seeing in the magazines, they will have the look.
Over the years I have bought much from Wisteria and have not been disappointed – ever. The merchandise is well made, yet the prices are so reasonable it makes it hard to resist.

Wisteria sent me a few pictures of merchandise guaranteed to be at the Warehouse Sale! Enjoy:
This Wisteria staple – the chest and mirror - are going to be on sale at the Warehouse this week! I've wanted this for years!!!!
Note: only the black mirror is available - not the chest BUT all the other colors are available in the chest!!!!!!!!

The Walking Dead creator "hopeful" about shooter
The Walking Dead franchise creator Robert Kirkman has some hope for Activision's shooter based on the popular TV series, despite publicly expressing doubts as to whether such an adaptation could work.
Speaking to GameInformer, Kirkman directly addressed an incident in which he was quoted as saying he wouldn't like to see The Walking Dead adapted as a shooter, prior to the announcement of Terminal Reality's take on the the franchise.
"I know there is a quote out there where I said, 'It would be dumb to do a first person Walking Dead game because there are so many that it wouldn't be something that would be competitive in the marketplace, and you'd always be compared to Left 4 Dead so why bother.' I don't think AMC read that quote," Kirkman said.
"But I will say that this game is very much the Dixon brothers' game. These two characters don't exist in the comic, so the ability to play as those characters and learn more about those characters, who are very popular in the show, could actually push this game over the top and make it a worthwhile experience. That's what I'm hoping on."
The shooter was licensed by Activision from AMC and is therefore based on the show rather than the comics.
"I'm not as involved because that's their thing. I'm looking at stuff. I'm aware of its existence," kirkman said.
"I know Activision is working very hard to make a cool-looking game and I'm hopeful it will be something that is worthy of the Walking Dead brand, but it's not something that I'm actively, intimately involved with. Telltale's game is based off the comic book, so I have a bunch more control over that than I do with what AMC does."
The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct is due on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2013 and boasts a number of neat features, including zombies which hunt by smell.

NEW YORK — Uma Thurman is bopping around a downtown Asian-fusion restaurant in this city she calls home, having just enthusiastically ordered some of the fried specialties ("I never met a dumpling I didn't like"), her 6-foot-frame and luminous skin incongruous among the normal-sized and average-complected people around her.
Thurman has a demonstrative personality that some would call actress-y, though it seems less like a put-on than simply the grand way she chooses to go through life. The laugh is loud; the voice is confident.
It is an attitude that, at least internally, is newly earned.
Uma Thurman film: In the March 19 Calendar section, an article about actress Uma Thurman said that the opening day of the film "Nymphomaniac: Vol 2" would be April 18. The film is opening April 4.—
"Everything got to me so much before," she said. "I was just like a hairless cat in a snowstorm half the time. I was so thin-skinned. Anything negative people said I would latch onto."
Thurman is making a comeback of sorts in Lars von Trier's explicit-yet-talkie sex-addiction drama "Nymphomaniac: Vol. I," which opens Friday. Unlike her landmark roles in several Quentin Tarantino movies, Thurman's imposing presence is scaled down here, as she plays a puffy-eyed cheating victim who has turned up to confront her husband and his mistress (Stacy Martin) at the mistress' home.
With three children in tow, she lets loose in the scene an eight-minute monologue that would make anyone who's ever been jilted stand up and cheer, providing a jolt both acidly comic and emotionally enlivening.
"Would it be all right if I showed the children the whoring bed?" she says with lacerating wit. Then, to the kids, "You should try to memorize this moment: It will stand you in good stead later in therapy," before saying of the mistress to no one in particular, "I have a hard time picturing her enjoying loneliness." At the end, she emits a desperate Shakespearean scream and makes her exit.
It's Thurman's only scene, but a striking one, not only because it shifts the movie's moral trajectory from dour nihilism to soulful consequence but also because Thurman's character brings in a complex vitality from literally out of nowhere.
The same might be said of the latest phase of the actress' career.
After sitting on the sidelines for nearly three years following the birth of her third child in 2012, Thurman — who boasts an enjoyably diverse if not exactly consistently successful resume — is making a surprise return with the scene-stealing piece in the first part of the Von Trier epic.
And unlike in earlier phases, when she says she was racked by self-doubt, Thurman says she is approaching this chapter differently.
"I'm finally getting so much more calm than I used to be," said the actress, 43. "I don't think I ever allowed myself to look forward to things. There was always anticipatory anxiety, and unfortunately, that had too much say in my reaction. But everything feels different now."
Von Trier's call
"Nymphomaniac: Vol. I" tells in flashback the coming-of-age tale of a sexually compulsive woman named Joe (Martin and Charlotte Gainsbourg play the character as younger and older woman, respectively) as she narrates her story to the academic Seligman (Stellan Skarsgard), who's prone to analogizing her exploits to patterns in fly fishing and Bach sonatas. (Vol. II opens April 18.)
Thurman received a call from Von Trier just weeks after she had given birth to her child, with French significant other Arpad Busson. Most actors — even someone who made an early mark as a nude Venus, as Thurman did in Terry Gilliam's 1988 hit "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" — might worry what lasciviousness the provocateur had up his sleeve. Thurman was less concerned.
"I mean, 30 pounds up after the baby, that wasn't something that would be fun for anyone," she said, giving one of her trademark laughs.
Thurman spent weeks preparing to play the woman, named Mrs. H, and then on a single exhausting day in Germany went through 15 takes on set, expressing the full range each time out. "The whole scene," the actress said, "is kind of a gear shift between defiance and defeat." (Von Trier, still under a self-imposed media ban after his Cannes "Nazi controversy" in 2011, would not comment for this article.)
Thurman has had her own set of ups and downs in her acting career, from bad reviews in panned movies ("Batman & Robin," "The Avengers") to stellar reviews in acclaimed ones (her Tarantino collaborations, "Pulp Fiction" and "Kill Bill Vol. 1" and "Vol. 2"). She was last seen in a feature as a soccer mom in the Gerard Butler 2012 light drama "Playing for Keeps," which she shot in the spring of 2011. It's not that a comeback is unexpected, per se; it's just that she hasn't worked for years, and hasn't done the kind of dramatic work she does in "Nymphomaniac"--which in its seriousness of purpose calls to mind early pieces such as "Dangerous Liaisons"--in longer than that.
Through her roller-coaster career, Thurman has been nothing if not adventurous in her choices, taking on all manner of screen genres — comedy, costume drama, science fiction, superhero movies, romantic dramedy, even the Broadway-themed NBC series "Smash" in which she riffed on her actress persona (though with all this she says her heart lies with harder-core drama). She did make what to some was a more perplexing choice when she took a lead role — her last — in a modestly budgeted slice-of-life picture from a little-known director, titled "Motherhood," that went on to gain only a niche release in 2009.
If it seems like a career with an exciting diversity but an erratic level of quality, Thurman doesn't disagree. "I am a kind of diver," she said. It's 'let's see what happens. For all of its good and all of its danger." (And, she notes, "if you're someone who likes to work, you're going to make some bad movies," since there are only so many top-notch scripts out there and more than a fair share of worthy actors.)
(It does still seem to bother Thurman, it should be noted, that her work is judged in the context of her personal life, particularly the high-profile divorce from Ethan Hawke about a decade ago that kept tabloid writers busy for years. Asked whether her experience as a victim of marital infidelity informed her choices as the cuckolded mother in "Nymphomaniac," she said tersely that the subject "doesn't really deserve any more breath.")
As part of her hoped-for comeback, she is next eyeing a role in "American Ultra," a genre mash-up starring Jesse Eisenberg and Kristen Stewart in which she would play a CIA operative. There is time, she said, before her 2-year-old daughter is older and can't travel with her as easily, so she wants to get back to work, an experience after so many years away that she likens to "feeling like you're reentering the kingdom of filmmaking, with its studio kings and princesses and whole fantasy world."
To fans, a Thurman comeback inevitably calls to mind a potential Tarantino collaboration — it was with him, after all, that she had perhaps her most memorable role, as the Bride in "Kill Bill: Vol. 1," just after her last pregnancy-induced hiatus of several years in the early 2000s. But she is reticent about the possibility of working with him again.
"He's sort of my oldest friend," she said of Tarantino. "We talk to each other about work all the time, but not together," she said, adding somewhat obliquely: "There's the man and there's the movies."
Whatever shape her return takes, she may not need a lot of time to get back into midseason form. "Nymphomaniac's" Martin said that on that movie, Thurman "was there just one day and she's immediately in the scene; it's fascinating to watch."
Thurman seems serious when she uses words like "refreshed" and "jolly," beaming when her teenage daughter Maya, one of two children from her marriage to Hawke, walks into the restaurant to go over an array of car pickups and homework schedules.
But Thurman laughs at the suggestion that this means she'll be jumping into her earlier pace of as many as three or four movies per year. "I don't want to make stupid decisions. I mean, surprise, who does?" she said. "But really."
