UNIONDALE, N.Y. -- The New York Islanders are in a place they haven't been in quite a while -- holding their playoff chances in their own hands.
Matt Martin scored the go-ahead goal with less than seven minutes left, and Evgeni Nabokov was sharp in goal to lift the Islanders past the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-2 on Saturday night.
The Islanders remained in eighth place in the Eastern Conference, tied in points with the seventh-place New York Rangers, who hold the tiebreaker. Both teams lead the ninth-place Winnipeg Jets, who are below the postseason cutoff, by two points.

The New Jersey Devils are three points back in 10th.
The Islanders (19-16-4) are trying to make the postseason for the first time since 2007. They have nine games remaining, while Winnipeg has eight, and the Devils 10.
"We're working toward what we are trying to accomplish, and we still have a ways to go," said Islanders leading scorer John Tavares, who assisted on Josh Bailey's first goal midway through the first period. "We still have much we can do better. But we are excited to be in this position."
Michael Grabner also scored, and Andrew MacDonald added an empty-net goal at 19:46 to make it 4-2 for New York, which won for the sixth time in eight games.
The Islanders have five straight home wins against Tampa Bay and are 10-2 in their last 12 at Nassau Coliseum versus the Lightning.
"We battled hard and we continue to do little things well which bring big results," Islanders coach Jack Capuano said. "Our leadership is strong, and we are showing it."
Richard Panik and Matt Carle had goals for the Lightning.
Martin netted the go-ahead goal when his soft wrist shot from between the circles fooled goalie Ben Bishop, who appeared to be screened. Martin has three goals this season.
The Islanders have won three straight at home overall for the first time since December 2011-January 2012. They host the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday, and the Rangers on April 13.
"We're playing big games and we're playing well," said Islanders right wing Kyle Okposo, who assisted on Bailey's goal. "We have to keep it going."
Grabner, who took the place of ill left wing Matt Moulson on the top line with Tavares and Brad Boyes, opened the scoring 14:45 in with his 12th goal.
Grabner intercepted a clearing attempt by defenseman Sami Salo and fired the puck past Bishop, who was making his second start for Tampa Bay after he was acquired from Ottawa on Wednesday. Tavares, who leads the Islanders with 23 goals and 40 points, assisted on the goal.
"This is big for the guys in the room because they are seeing results," Tavares said. "The steps we've been taking are paying off."
Panik made it 1-1 at 4:44 of the second with a snap shot from the left circle for his second goal of the season.
Bailey put the Islanders back on top at 8:22 of the second when he jammed his seventh goal of the season past Bishop off a scramble in front.
"We know that with nine games left we still have plenty of work to do," Bailey said. "We have to play our best."
Carle, who also had an assist, tied it again at 4:00 of the third period when he scored off a rebound of Steven Stamkos' shot.
The Islanders have been tied or ahead in the third period in 33 of 39 games. They are 18-2-2 when scoring at least three goals and 1-14-2 fewer than three.
"We did a good job defensively," Capuano said. "We stayed with our structure."
The Lightning were missing defenseman Victor Hedman. who sustained a lower body injury against Carolina on Wednesday. Defenseman Matt Taormina was recalled from AHL Syracuse to take Hedman's place.
"We didn't do a good job of puck management," said Lightning coach Jon Cooper, who replaced Guy Boucher on March 25. "We have to do a better job of that if we want to be successful."
The Islanders play three of their next four at home before ending the regular season with five road games. The Islanders started 2-8-1 at home but are 6-3-1 there since March 1. The Islanders are 11-5-2 on the road.
The Islanders swept the three-game season series from the Lightning.
- Moulson's consecutive games streak ended at 284. He hadn't missed a game in his Islanders career. The only Islanders with longer streaks are Billy Harris (576) and Bob Nystrom (301).
- Islanders LW Jesse Joensuu made his season debut.
- The Lightning were without C Dana Tyrell.
- Nabokov has started all but six of the Islanders' 39 games.

Today marks the beginning of a very busy blockbuster season for movies. Every studio with a big release is going to get it into theaters between now and the end of August. In fact, between today and August 31st, 176 movies have been scheduled for release in theaters!
The problem for moviegoers is sifting through almost 200 movies for the ones that are really going to make a splash, since many of those 176 movies are small, independent releases that, while probably of interest to some, aren't the types of movies most people will make plans to see.
We've taken our first step to pulling out those movies with mass appeal and maybe a movie here and there that may not be a big release but sounds interesting to us nonetheless. You will find a new feature on the "Coming Soon" page in the Now Showing section titled "Notable Upcoming Movies."
This feature will highlight the next five upcoming movies that we think our readers should notice. Most of them are easy picks, as they are major releases and they are getting a huge amount of advertising right now.
However, as you see in the list today (snapshot is shown above), the movie Management is listed there as well. After reading the plot summary and watching the trailer, we think it will be a movie worth seeing this summer. It certainly doesn't hurt that Jennifer Aniston and Steve Zahn are in it -- Zahn is one of my favorite comedic actors!
As time goes on, we'll find more ways to highlight these movies, so stay tuned for these and other developments as we continue to improve The BigScreen Cinema Guide!

A courageous Doncaster teen, who was subjected to eight hours of torture at the hands of her 'friends', says she wants people to 'learn' from her ordeal.
Summer Gregg, who was aged just 17 at the time of the attack, was so afraid she was considered jumping out of an eighth floor flat window to escape her attackers.
"I didn't think I was going to make it out of the flat alive, and thought maybe jumping out of the window would either have killed or saved me - but at that point I began to think it was my only way out," she said.
During the night of torture,carried out by Jay Blades, James Canning and Amy Gaines at the flat located in St James Street in Doncaster town centre, Summer was punched, kicked, beaten with a metal chain, urinated on and forced to 'act like a dog'.
Her three attackers may be behind bars, but Summer, now aged 18, is reminded of the of horrific and prolonged ordeal daily.
Watch Summer speak out on the terrifying experience in this exclusive video.

All risk in the rice price begins with the one who is marketing it. No decision is free of risk: selling at harvest, holding all year or refusing to make use of futures and options. Risk has a statistical component and it has a psychological component. Until the psychological component is dealt with, your selling performance will suffer.
Much of the insight into a market is more obvious than not. We often know what we need to do and we do not do it. You need to sleep at night and that is no small thing to purchase. The Chinese, who are expert rice traders, have a saying: "Wealth can buy you a bed but it cannot buy you sleep."
The best medication for sleep is to have a marketing plan with selling objectives before the season commences and the cash on hand to implement it effectively.
A good friend and above average marketer of rice told us recently that when the market is profitable you should sell your rice and leave the last 10 percent of the market you expect to others. Does that sound strange to you? It is the urge to hit the high that causes so many problems to farmer sellers. We call it "market regret."
You cannot overcome that market regret until you admit to your own innate greed and fear. Market rumors spun by unscrupulous people or ignorant people will undermine your resolve. The rice market is an unbalanced whirlpool of "market spin."
The stories in the news section on Web sites, which come from various news agencies, are full of bias and hidden agendas. You must always ask, "Who is saying this and what do they have to gain from getting me to accept it whether it is true or not?"
You will question your decisions when the market goes against you or it sits like paint drying on a wall and goes nowhere for long periods of time. If you do not use futures and options, you will limit your range of motion in the market substantially.
When you sell cash, you are done in cash. Such a narrow and confining choice range makes you a reluctant seller. A farmer should always be in the market. It is like working out: if you miss your trip to the gym, you get weak and flabby again.
With the use of futures and options you can again own a market trend or sell your crop more than once. You have flexibility by using futures and options but even more critical you can reduce the regret and the sleepless nights as the market soars past your price objectives. For example, you can buy long call positions to replace part of your sold rice and consider it "sleeping medication."
If prices do not rise, you know the extent of your extra cost, which translates into a lower effective selling price. You essentially sell your rice for the price you receive in the cash market minus the cost of the option premium. This is just part of leaving the last 10 percent for someone else. If the price explodes past your pricing point, you still have a little skin in the game. This skin in the game can diminish or remove your regret.
If you can sleep at night when the market gyrates wildly, then your relationship with your spouse will improve immensely.
Even Wall Street gets sentimental at times. There is the story of a trading unit that did a bad job trading the Japanese yen. The head of the trading department brought in a huge cactus and encouraged the traders to go over and hug the cactus before thinking about over-speculating. Holding cash rice is speculating until it is sold. Holding cash rice with no marketing plan deserves a big bear hug on that cactus plant.

It is that time of year for South Dakota farmers to place orders for corn seed. Nathan Mueller, SDSU Extension Agronomist says two questions many growers should ask are: 1) How many hours do I spend selecting corn hybrids? 2) Who and what influence my decision?
"Regardless of how you answered these questions, selecting hybrids each year is one of the most important routine decisions producers make that drives profitability," Mueller said. "In 2011, the average corn price received in South Dakota was $6.05 per bushel - only to be higher in 2012."
He adds that in both the 2011 and 2012 SDSU trials, the average difference between the lowest and highest yielding hybrid was 49 bu. per acre.
"These values highlight the potential maximum impact hybrid selection can have on profitability," he said. "Selecting a group of proven top-performing hybrids to plant on your farm will also help you minimize the chance that a particular environmental factor, disease, or insect may preferentially impact all of them. Your time and effort in making an informed decision on selecting hybrids will make good on its return."
To aid growers in this important buying decision, Mueller compiled a list of considerations:
- Availability and seed cost
- Yield potential, yield stability, and maturity
- Yield limiting factors (diseases, insects, etc.)
- Your management practices
- Available traits and technologies
- Company yield data
- Third-party hybrid performance trial results
"Your seed dealer or crop advisor should be able to help you gather most of this information including yield data from third-party hybrid performance trials to help identify top performing hybrids that match your soils, climate, pest problems, and management," he said. "If you are concerned that you will miss out on the earliest pay discounts by waiting for third-party trials results to be released, seed companies often will let you pay for a seed order without specifying the hybrid until later. Please check with your seed company on this policy."

Swimming Pool Blog
Swimming Babies
by Sean Griffin, March 16, 2010
Swimming Babies
There's a slim chance your young one will grow up to be the next Michael Phelps but getting your little one to start swimming at a very young age can have lots of other benefits which don't include several gold medals. Researchers have documented that early swimming has a stimulating effect and has the potential to increase intelligence, alertness, emotional and physical development. Another obvious reason to teach young children to swim is to avoid a drowning incident. Toddler swimming programs have been designed to help even the youngest of children use their natural abilities and instinct to turn over in a body of water and remain floating on their back. Teaching your child to be comfortable in water can be a positive foundation towards a lifetime participation and enjoyment in a variety of water sports. Bonding with your child in the pool is also a possible side effect as babies tend to be happy in the water.
Everyone knows a baby's first environment is a liquid one both before birth and during labor. The buoyancy of water is an invisible helping hand in the birthing process. Water allows babies to develop both arms and legs within the womb and is a necessity in the cycle of life. When a baby is submerged after birth their "diving reflex" kicks in. While continuing to develop their extremities it is the only activity a child can partake in being completely independent before walking and crawling.
It is essential to know and understand that the key to unlock the growth potential of your child in the water is being patient and never rushing them. Our generation has the "get it done now" attitude with most areas in life, which in most cases is beneficial, however when teaching a child how to swim can be very detrimental, traumatizing and simply unnecessary. Remember that teaching involves being caring and perceptive to the child's immediate reactions and the long-term effects both mentally and emotionally. So, enjoy the moments spent teaching your child to swim by making your goal to never compromise the child's comfort and security which will yield great success in the end.
Research has proven that the slower you teach a child the quicker and more efficiently your child will learn to swim. At the same rate, the frequency of the swimming lessons should be consistent and very repetitious. In order to keep the child's interest, the learning process needs to be fun. Kids enjoy toys, colors, singing and games, so keep the pressure to perform low by simply having fun together in the water. There are many good learn to swim books, the DK book shown is one of our favourites.
Comfort is vital for anyone, especially children, to feel at ease in the water. There are many controllable factors that parents need to take into consideration in order to maintain a healthy level of contentment. Statistics say that water between 90°F and 92°F and windless air temperature at 80°F or above helps babies adjust easiest, yielding positive results.
We all know, however, that ideal conditions are not always available. If conditions are at other than the best, it is recommended that each child have a wetsuit to keep warm as well as wear a latex or silicone swim cap to prevent heat-loss from the head. Also, if it's chilly outside try to avoid having the child sit on the edge of the pool too long, be cognizant that the child's shoulders are submersed under the water, and if the child's teeth start chattering it's time to end the lesson for the day.
Some children may not be so quick to adapt to swimming lessons, and parents should not force their child to learn swimming faster than they are willing. In order to prevent every parent's fear that a young child who does not know how to swim may drown in the pool, other safety precautions must be considered. A pool safety fence should be installed - barricading the pool at least four and a half feet high. You can also install a pool alarm which will ring inside the house as well as at the pool side. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (www.cpsc.gov ) did a study on drowning in the USA .The results revealed that 75% of submersion victims were 1-3 years old, 65% of whom were boys. The CPSC just launched a website solely dedicated to pool safety, at www.poolsafety.gov.
There is an instinctive defense for toddlers to be able to propel through the water, turn over and float to catch their breath, then propel again. This method can be practiced by children as young as 14 months, as shown in the toddler swim video by childdrowningprevention.com
Owning a pool can entail many responsibilities, but if the correct practices, methods, and precautions are taken it will be an enjoyable, entertaining, and pleasurable leisure activity for the whole family to enjoy.
Teach your children to swim at an early age ~ you won't regret it!

Running 6.1 on a Synology. Using the default transcoding settings.
I'm having trouble transcoding mp4 and avi files using the supplied ffmpeg, they simply won't load with just the 3 dots showing. My MP3 and WMA files play fine.
If I try the Synology Community ffmpeg, the videos load straight away, but there's no sound. My MP3 and WMA files don't play either.
How can I set ffmpeg to output to a log so I can see what's going on?
If I try a straight transcode to flv in windows, just using the -i flag it works, though not the same build of ffmpeg, so it must be something to do with builds but I'm scratching my head here!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It's been more than a year since Raiders cornerback D.J. Hayden has taken part in a full-contact football practice, but that will change on Sunday.
The Raiders first-round pick has been cleared for contact, giving him the chance to shed the red jersey he's been wearing as a result of the May surgery to remove scar tissue in his abdomen related to last year's emergency surgery to repair the torn inferior vena cava in his heart. Raiders coach Dennis Allen said Hayden was "anxious and excited" to get back to a full workload, something he thinks is a good thing even if no one's certain how things will play out for Hayden.
"Nobody knows how he's going to respond when that happens," Allen said, via Scott Bair of CSNBayArea.com. "We've had to hold him back at practice, because he wants to do everything. From that standpoint, I think he has a great mindset going into this thing. I think it'll be great for him to get that first team appearance under his belt."
If all goes well, Hayden will make his preseason debut against the Bears on Friday and the Raiders will start to get a clearer idea of where their first-round pick is at this point and how much he'll be able to help them as a rookie.

Polio Claims Life
of Elmin Forssell
Bethel Sophomore
On Tuesday, September 26, the
student body was shocked to hear
of the death of one of their fellow
students, Elmin A. Forssell, who
was a member of the Sophomore
class. Elmin, having contracted
bulbar poliomyelitis in the throat,
had been in the Kenny Institute,
Mpls., for just four days when
news of his death reached camp-us.
Born February 16, 1932, Elmin
had spent his life in St. Paul,
Chicago, and Estherville, Iowa. He
had been at Bethel since the fall
of 1949. In high school he was
active in vocal and instrumental
music, dramatics, athletics, was a
student council representative, a
class officer, and a member of the
Hi-Y organization. At Bethel he
sang with the Male Chorus. Choir,
B.Y.P.U., and Sunday School were
some of the church organizations
he participated in.
Elmin was converted at the age
of twelve and was later baptized
by his father, G. E. Forssell, pas-tor
of the Baptist Church, Esther-ville,
Surviving are his parents, Rev.
and Mrs. Elner Forssell; two sis-ters,
Elnerva and Elnerin; one
brother James, and his paternal
division of the money among sev-eral
missionary fields or projects.
On the first Friday of each
month, the Missionary Band will
be in charge of the chapel ser-vice,
at which time a special miss-ionary
program will be given. The
missionary offering will be especi-ally
emphasized at these particu-lar
On October 21, the Minnesota
Student Missionary Conference
will be held at Bethel. Besides
Bethel, other schools represented
in this conference are Augsburg,
St. Olaf, and St. Paul Bible Insti-tute.
The main speaker at this
event will be Rev. R. E. Thomp-son,
associated with the St. Paul
Bible Institute, a member of the
Far Eastern Gospel Crusade, and
formerly a missionary to China.
Mr. Johnson announced that on
Wednesday night, October 18, the
first Missionary Band meeting will
be held in the college chapel when
all students are invited to attend.
The nature of the program is to
be announced later.
At a recent election, the stu-dents
chose Maynard Johnson as
Missionary Band president and
Herman Van Arsdale was elected
vice-president. This election was
made necessary by the resignation
of Russell Johnson from the presi-dency
of Missionary Band. Russell
resigned from office in Missionary
Band to accept the vice-presidency
of the Student Council.
Other officers of the Missionary
Band are: Phil McLain, treasurer;
Harold Christiansen, assistant trea-surer;
Florence Nordstrom, secre-tary.
Miss Esther Sable, advisor.
Al Windham and
R. Johnson Head
Student Council
Al Windham will take over the
duties of Student Council presi-dent
with Russell Johnson as vice-president
to assist him.
A special election was necessary
to determine who would fill the
vacancy occasioned by Harold
Lind's resignation from the Coun-cil's
presidency September 20th.
Eleanor Johnson was elected
secretary of the Council at that
time. Jim Rentz took on the busi-ness
of treasurer to fill the vacan-cy
left by John Soneson. Rentz
was elected earlier this year.

Destination Bethel
by Ann Radunz
Restoring Patricia and Suzanne to their
proper places on my shelf, I decided it
would be much more profitable, both to
myself and the people with whom I would
live, to take along a pair of shoes in their
I hear that some people complain when
others are without this necessary item, and
far be it from me to want to offend any-one.
It hurt me to leave all my fond mem-ories
at home—memories ranging from my
first orchid down to the crumpled napkin
I once had secretly snatched from my
current crush while still in grade school.
So, unceremoniously dumping all these
treasures into an empty drawer, I left the
past and concentrated on the present—yes,
very definitely concentrated on the pre-sent.
I pushed, I shoved, I crammed, I
squeezed until every article I deemed
essential to maintaining life was stuffed
into my bulging suitcases.
Attributing the tickling of my epiglottis
to the steadily rising lump in my throat, I
gulped violently and cheerfully said good-bye
to my family. Ten hours of constant
driving can give a person a lot of time to
think, plan, and wonder—especially won-der.
I imagined Bethel as a huge machine
and wondered if I would be part of the
mechanics and do my bit to make it func-tion
properly, or if I would be a speck of
dust that only hindered and eventually
corroded the mechanism. A silent prayer
passed my lips that Bethel would use me
as she saw fit, but above all, that our Lord
would have pre-eminence in my life.
As the campus which I have now learned
to love came into view, all. my dreaded
apprehensions fled and I became determin-ed
to make myself a part of Bethel. Envel-oped
in such a marvelous Christian atmos-phere,
I began making friends instantly,
for the love of Christ shone everywhere.
To me, Bethel is not just a college a-mong
a thousand others, but an institu-tion
of Christ in which we may come to
know Him better and walk closer with
Him. It thrills me to think that with
Communism raging throughout the world,
we, and others like us, take pride in hold-ing
high the banner of Christ and seeking
the lost for His Kingdom.
Meditation .. .
... for the things which are seen are
temporal; but the things which are not
seen are eternal." 2 Cor. 4:18
What a strange doctrine ! It seems so
much more natural for me to believe that
the real things in life are those that can
be seen and handled, and that the invisible
intangibles are merely suppositions. But I
know that Paul must be right. I've been
startled, again, into admitting it. The
things I thought were real in regard to
Elmin Forssell—His beautifully developed
physique, his superior mental capacities,
' his organ-toned voice, all of which gave
promise of a brilliant future—these I
thought were real. And when I heard
yesterday that he was dead, and when I
almost called his name in class today, I
rebelled. It wasn't true. It couldn't be. It
didn't seem real. But I know it is real.
I've known all the time that death is more
real than life, and that eternal life is more
real than death. I've known that my plans
and my future have reality only as they
are identified with God's, but I haven't
always wanted to admit it. I will admit it
now ! and I will, by God's Grace, dedicate
myself anew to the things that are eternal.

Do You Know What You Mean?
by Keith LaGesse
Whenever possible I listened to the
broadcasts of the United nations meetings
this summer. The most impressive thoughts
I received from the sessions were that
Russia's ambassador Malik didn't approve
of what he termed U. S. aggression in
Korea and China. Day after day Malik
gave out with the same line of abuse
against the U. S.
For example, in nearly every speech he
gave, Malik berated U. S. agression. Now,
the day the North Koreans started south,
the U. N. immediately condemned their
action and called for aid to stop impend-ing
war. All this was before U. S. troops
entered Korea in the cause of the U. N.,
at the request of the U. N. Eventually
many nations contributed aid to the cause
of fighting the North Koreans, but still
Malik raved about U. S. agression in Korea,
classing most of the members of the U. N.
either as fools or as liars by his refusal
to recognize the truth.
All this I can understand. What I can't
see is the attitude of so many Christians
who use terms as if they knew and meant
what they were talking about, but refuse
to act as if they believed what they were
Let me illustrate this point without gett-ing
personal by directing your attention
to letters to the editors of Christian Life
magazine. The first topic discussed is the
Hollywood Christian group. No doubt the
critics are all fundamentalists of the high-est
order, condemning sin and preaching
salvation (to this we agree heartily). But,
now that some concerned Christians have
made salvation available to Hollywood,
these ultra fundamentalists object to lett-ing
the world know about the results. Is
salvation limited to certain groups, or cer-tain
areas which certain men have mapped
What's the connection with Malik? Well,
he and his friends use a lot of terms, and
A Wider View . • .
Dr. J. Edwin Orr, who spoke on our
campus from September 25-29, showed us
something of the potentiality of a life fully
surrendered to God. His challenging pic-ture
of an instrument in God's hand accom-plishing
His work in a day of vast oppor-tunity
and need was one which did not
exclude joyful, adventurous living, nor was
it an idea to be held for the future. "God
uses students—in school" were his words.
At the first vesper service Dr. Orr told
us something of the history of revival, the
time of the Lollards, the Reformation, the
rise of Puritanism, and the evangelical a-wakenings
of the days of Wesley and
Moody. He pointed out that each of these
periods of coming back to God was follow-ed
by some counteraction by Satan.
Dr. Orr also gave us a sketch of the
current revival movement spreading across
our country and breaking out in other
parts of the world as the people are will-ing
to meet God's condition.

Elmin Forssell
A Tribute ..
by Roy Lundquist
This tribute is to one who has made a
lasting impression • upon me, not only by
his life, but by his death. Elmin was known
to many because of the beautiful voice
that God gave him. He loved to sing about
his Saviour and the Lord used his voice.
He possessed a keen mind and a determin-ed
will that allowed him to accomplish any
task that confronted him. Elm had a jovial
nature and a carefree manner. His hearty
laugh always encouraged his friends to
see the lighter side.
To me personally, Elmin was a true
friend,—a friend of friends. He was one
in whom I could confide and trust, the
kind of "buddy" a Christian needs.
God has called him home to a better
place. God has left me here, and in so do-ing
He has a task for me. God has a pur-pose
in Elmin's passing, and my prayer
is that, that purpose might be made mani-fest
in me.
Elmin, going so suddenly causes me to
turn to the twenty seventh chapter of
Proverbs and the first verse. "Boast not
thyself of tomorrow; for thou knowest not
what a day may bring forth."
The memory of Elmin Forssell is prec-ious
to me and I shall cherish it forever.
Then on that glorious morn I shall see
him on the other side.
take it for granted that we in the free
workl will accept them at face value, which
some do. However, the Russian conduct
indicates that their words are empty, and
they have no intention of applying them
to their part of the world. What about us.
We use terms too as though we knew and
understood them, but we act as though
such things are to be ignored, or at least
to be interpreted according to our own
We Christians like to impress each other
with the terms we use which are so
common to Christians, but are we willing to
pay the price of accepting the full responsi-bility
which the terms we use require?
What terms? Try some of these; salvation,
consecration, surrender, tithe, and the
Lord's will.

of recent years, which God in His grace
saw fit to start at Bethel in the spring of
1949, has spread to other Christian and
secular schools. Dr. Orr has had an impor-tant
part in bringing the need of revival
before the pastors and people of our land.
On Tuesday night of our deeper life
week the question came up, "Do we need
a revival every year?" The next day in
chapel a "spiritual" examination disclosed
the fact that we felt the need for a more
prayfully committed life and that the lack
of this was a sin which needed to be con-fessed.
Dr. Orr spoke of the cleansing by
faith that follows confession, and that
night gave us in an outline of Romans a
clearer understanding of the doctrine of
At Thursday's chapel hour Dr. Orr told
us that our need was for a world-view too
big to let petty sins encumber and hinder
the program of the Holy Spirit for evengel-ising
the world.
Dr. Orr gave us an inspiring illustration

It has been well said that "if you sacri-fice
without success it means that some-one
will succeed after you. If you succeed
without sacrifice it means that someone
has sacrificed before you."
Adoniram Judson was in Burma some
seven years without a convert. He would
sit with his wife at the Lord's table time
after time, just the two of them, and he
would say: "This is the church of Burma."
. But the fruitage came later and it came
in great abundance.
Well, Bethel College and Seminary is
here because of sacrifice. There have been
people who have given from their tithes
and savings and from their meager store
that this school might come into being and
then carry on.
And many of you students, if not all, are
here because somebody back home has
sacrificed and is sacrificing. I was privileg-ed
to read a letter in Swedish from a dear
grandmother who wrote to her grand-mother
at Bethel: "I am so glad you are at
Bethel. If you need anything, if there is
anything I can do for you, please let me

"Not faster yonder rower's might
Flings from his oars the spray
Than men from memory erase
The benefits of former days."
Some years ago a father was asked if he
thought his son would do better than he
had done. The reply came quickly, "He
certainly ought to do better. I have worked
hard to give him the opportunities and
to place him where he is. He is standing
on my shoulder."
The least, then, that we can do is to be
thoughtful and thankful—and to remember
them back home. Your place is empty now.
They miss you and they think of you often,
and they pray for you.
For one thing, plan definitely to write
home regularly and then be faithful in
doing it. They will look for your letter. I
think I will quote again these lines in
order that you might be spared the regret
and sorrow expressed in them.
"I found a little record of her days
At the old home. A few short lines

Her daily household tasks, or when
She visited the sick ... But 0, some-how
One line apart from others seems to stand

day to day.

Our last session with Dr. Orr's scholarly
help was spent in a consideration of the
necessity of being filled with the Holy
Spirit for effective service. Dr. Orr stress-ed
that the greatest gift the Holy Spirit
had for us was the privilege to speak out
for God.
Friday evening Thomas Reese, well-known
evangelist of England and friend of
Dr. Orr, spoke on the way to establish and
maintain our quiet time, the secret of a
deeper life.
At nineteen Wesley started the Holy
Club at Oxford. In his home in Ireland Dr.
Orr, as a young man of twenty, worked
with a network of street meetings which
were city-wide. A year later he started out
on faith to do student revival work in Eng-land.
God has a work for each of us to do—
starting now.

Faculty Challenges Campus Leaders at Forum
Officers Advised to Uncover
Leadership Ability on Campus
"There are people who do their
greatest life-work right here in
school," Dean Carlson stated at the
afternoon session, adding that
negative elements of campus life
can be controlled by positive stu-dent
opinion created by campus
leaders. Stressing the responsibili-ty
of leadership, Dean Omark
said, "The world's greatest need
in the future will be Christian
"There was something about
Jesus that made men rise up and
follow Him," President Wingblade
remarked when holding up Christ
as the Greatest of all leaders.
"Those with Christ dwelling in
their hearts make the most de-pendable
leaders," he told his
Open Mon. and
Thurs. eve.
Dining by candlelight at tables
decorated in the school colors
gave leaders an opportunity to be-come
better acquainted with one
another and review the goals set
by discussion groups earlier in
the day.
The program, with Al Windham
presiding, got under way to the
music of "I Keep In Touch With
Jesus" and included a trio num-ber,
"Fairest Lord Jesus" by Ardis
Anderson, Elaine Holmquist and
Lenore Anderson; a humorous skit
by Ronnie Johnson, Dorothy John-son
and JoAnne Johnson; a brass
duet by Bruce Woodman and Wen-dell
Anderson with Dick Anthony
accompanying at the piano.

for the beginning of each quarter

of Arts Club
Is Underway
A new club project now before
the Student Council and school
policy committee for approval will
be known as the Arts Club, its
purpose being the study and dis-cussion
of the arts and their re-lation
to the Christian way of life.
Music, art, drama and writing
would be studied at monthly meet-ings,
and further plans would be
made to present one program of
arts per quarter, the first to given
at Christmas. Any student interest-ed
in developing talent in the a-bove
fields would be encouraged
to join.
The Arts Club originated when
the collegiate society officers met
last spring for the purpose of
uniting the four literary societies
into one organization which would
more adequately meet the needs
of the campus.
Under the lights at Worthing-ton,
Minn., last Friday night,
the Bethel Indians went down
in defeat 14-0, by the Worth-ington
Junior College eleven.
On Bethel's opening kickoff to
Worthington, the victors evad-ed
Bethel's entire eleven and
crossed the Indian goal for
their first touchdown.
With less than a minute re-maining
in the final period a
Worthington pass connected
from the Bethel 20 yard line in-to
the end zone to give Worth-ington
their last touchdown. Be-tween
the first and last seconds
of the game the Indians were
their opponents equal in all
areas of the game.

Former Literary

ToForm New Club
Are you one of the upperclass-en
who have been asking the ques-tion,
"What's happened to the
Collegiate Societies on Bethel
Campus?" If you are, • this is for
Before the closing of the last
Spring quarter, a committee in-cluding
the 1949-'50 officers of
the Lads and Lassies, Lords and
Ladies met with their advisors for
the purpose of defining the goals
of the Collegiate Societies and to
write a constitution. Up to this
time no constitution had been
written and the committee found
the aims and purposes of these
clubs difficult to define.
Many discussions later, the
committee decided that for the
benefit of the school it would be
better to dissolve 'the societies in
their present form. Here are a
few of the reasons why this was
1. The societies on the whole
were not achieving the purposes
as were originally set forth by the
initial founders. Some of these
purposes were to include the en-joyent
of fine literature, the de-velopment
of short story writing,
and other talents offered by the
2. The time allotted in prepa-ration
for the "Rush Day" pro-grams
was inadequate.
3. Membership was compulsory.
Each new student, whether he was
interested in the organization or
not, was expected to join.
4. Some felt that the competi-tion
between the groups exceeded
the bounds of "friendly competi-tion"
to the point of rivalry.
5. The societies were not work-ing
together as a unified whole,
but rather were interested in each
organization as a separate unit.
In view of these facts, plans
have been made to re-organize the
collegiate societies into one club
which will function somewhat in
the same manner as any other
club on Bethel Campus. Notice
will be made in the future con-cerning
the new "Arts Club."

concert tour.
Prelude to Modulation
by Jim Hubbard
The Bethel College Music Department has developed through the
stages of infancy and childhood and now has reached the adolescent
period of its life. The music faculty is visualizing, in the near future,
a complete, fully matured, music department, offering those courses
,necessary for the music major.
In the past years there were courses offered that were merely
an introduction to the vast world of musical knowledge. Bethel now
offers a minor in the applied fields of Voice, Piano, Organ, Violin, or
Cello. Along with these applied music courses there are the theory and
harmony courses; the history and 'appreciation courses that round out
the minor.
"It is later than you think", Rev. A. C. Conrad told campus leaders
at the student leadership banquet on Thursday, October 21, after the
group had spent the afternoon listening to leadership pointers given by
President Wingblade, Dean Carlson and Dean Omark. Leadership co-ordination,
integration and construction are set as this year's goals
for campus organizations with a spiritual emphasis to be maintained
throughout. Theme of the program was "Following Jesus".
To back Bethel's slogan, "Every
student a leader", organization
officers were urged to uncover
leadership ability in the school
and present the challenge and re-sponsibility
of good leadership to

In looking about the Bethel campus some afternoon, one might see
activity in many sports.- The football team can be seen on the practice
field each afternoon, the cross-country men are busily running around,
and the tumblers are falling over each other in the gym. Sometimes one
may even get a glimpse of a cheerleader or two yelling themselves
hoarse over the Bethel cheers. It all looks good and we wish to add
just a word of encouragement to each. If you are not out for a sport,
be sure you support each by seeing the contests, and showing your
support in any other way possible.
I'm sure we were all pleased with the outcome of the Rochester game
a short time ago. It seemed to me that each one of the boys was giving
all he had and at the same time was cooperating with the other ten in
such a way that it looked like a great machine. True, there were some
weaknesses, but these will be straightened out in time. Hats off to the
1950 football team !
Be sure and plan to be at the Homecoming game on October 14. In-vite
all your friends and come to cheer the Indians on to victory over
Northland. As an added attraction, the gymnasts will be putting on an
exhibition for the crowd. Also will be other things typical of Home-coming--
floats, a parade, Host and Hostess, and food ! Don't miss it.

Touch Football Scheduled
Intramural sports will soon be
underway. The 1950-'51 program is
scheduled to officially open today
with touch football games if the
weather permits.
"A schedule has been set up and
teams organized to play that sche-dule,"
says Don Dye, chairman of
the Intramural program 'for this
year. "Any team which does not
field a team at the announced
game time or shortly thereafter
will automatically forfeit that
game", he added. However, Don
hopes that all the teams will have
enough men to play the games
scheduled for them.
Seven divisions have been made
having been determined by geo-graphical
factors. The teams and
their leaders will be:
Illinois—Bob Bennett
East—Wes Peterson
West—Bud Pierce
Michigan-Wisconsin — Cliff D.
Four Selected
To Direct Yells
Fifteen girls turned out for the
opportunity of becoming a Bethel
cheerleader. The tryouts were
held in the main gym on Septem-ber
20 under the leadership of
Vicki Balcolm.
After watching performances of
each, those in charge decided on
four of the candidates for future
service as cheerleaders. Those four
are: Lorraine Friberg from Wash-ington;
Marlene Berry of Minnea-polis;
Shirley Lewis from St. Paul
and Ruth Jorgenson who is the
only one returning from last year.
The girls will be under the dir-ection
of Mrs. Sjordahl, girls phy-sical
education instructor. She will
guide them in athletic contests
throughout the year. A successful
start was noted for the girls as
they cheered at the opening foot-ball
game at Highland Statdium
on September 23.
Cross Country Is
New Bethel Sport
Bethel's list of sports continues
to grow. The latest addition is that
of cross-country. The sport, though
still in very primitive stages, is
receiving support and enthusiasm
from Bethel runners.
The list of fellows includes
Wayne Thompson, Al Malmstrom,
Bob Erickson, and Bob Fryken-burg.
More fellows are desired to
work out with the squad. Each
day from three to five o'clock
workouts are being held. The pre-sent
course is from Bethel to the
Como Golf Course, around the
course, and back to school. At
present the harriers are running
about two to four miles, but this
will be increased as time goes on.
Indians Aim
For Home Win
On Saturday of this week, Beth-el
College meets Ely here on the
home field. Although not much is
known about the Ely team, it is
expected. that they will furnish
Bethel with a very tough game.
Coach Lundeen is looking for-ward
to winning his second
straight home game after dispos-ing
of Rochester several weeks
ago. The team is in good spirit
and all have been practicing hard.
Injuries have hit the team in some
spots but it is hoped that the
squad will be at full strength for
the game with Ely.
We want to encourage each stu-dent
and faculty member to be at
the game and support the team.
There will probably be only one
more home game after this con-test,
so get out and see them
while you can. Soon the season
will be over and then there will
be no football until next year.
Sports Sketch
by Oliver DuFrene
Heading this years football team
are two very capable men. Both
of these men, Ronnie Skoog and
John Viren, are working hard to
make a successful season under
their new coach, Lynn Lundeen.
Ronnie Skoog, who hails from
Brainerd, Minnesota, is the hard
working, snappy signal caller for
this years team. He played on the
varsity in high schol for two years.
He has been very effective at half-back
for the last three years on
the Bethel squad. This is his last
year with the team as he is work-ing
for his B. A. degree this
John Viren is playing tackle for
his second year. John came here
from Duluth Central High School
where he was outstanding in foot-ball
for three years. He also parti-cipated
in other sports, including
two years on the basketball team.
He will be a valuable lineman on
the team.
Both of the co-captains feel
that this year's squad is more
powerful than last years and are
looking forward to a successful
Gymnast Drill
For Homecoming
The gymnasts, who proved to be
so popular last year, have organiz-ed
for another year. This year's
group is to be under the direction
of Marlin Nelson. They have been
organized for about two weeks
and already a good number of
fellows have shown up for prac-tices.
However, the call is out for
more men in order to keep the
squad at top strength.
Practices are being held in the
gym each Monday, Tuesday, and
Thursday at 5:00 p.m. Those who
attend regularly and remain on the
team receive full credit for a gym
class. In addition, it is hoped that
school letters will be given to
those who earn them.
The first performance will be
given at the Homecoming game.
Probably most of the first per-formances
will be mat and tumbl-ing
productions, but it thought
that at later dates, the fine Roman
Ladder act will be given also. '
Those fellows now on the team
include: Marlin Nelson, Cliff
Smith, Ken Gunman, Bob Earl,
Len Olson, Wilbur Madsen, Loren
Daryce, Dave Sheldon, Roger
Jacobson, and Richard Lovell.
Iowa-Platte Valley — Bernie Ho-gan
Minnesota—Ron Skoog
St. Paul-Minneapolis — Cliff
These leaders wish for coopera-tion
from as many of the students
as possible. If you are interested
in playing and have not so indi-cated,
either sign the sheets on
the bulletin board outside the gym
or tell your division leader.
Three sports have been set up
so far for competition. These are
touch football, basketball, and soft-ball.
Regular schedules will be
played and a tournament will
follow each schedule which has
been completed.
Competition will be for the In-tramural
trophy which was won
last year by the Illinois team. All
games will be on a point basis.
For every game won, five points
will be given; for every champion-ship
won, twenty five points will
be given, second place will be
worth fifteen and third place, ten
points. Tournament play will also
bring points. The team with the
most points at the end of the
school year will be presented with
the trophy.
Starting their football season off in robust fashion, Bethel College
downed Rochester J. C., 13-0 on September 23 at Highland Stadium.
The game was played before a good crowd of about 500 fans.
Although five of the starting eleven were newcomers to the squad
this year, each looked good in the team's debut. A total of only twenty
gridders were at the game, but each one worked hard in his position.
Rochester kicked off to Bethel
and it was run back to the 32
yard line. After two tries by Cliff
Pals which netted only six yards,
Spratt fumbled and the pigskin
was recovered by Rochester. On
the first play, Rochester tossed a
long pass which was intercepted
by Bethel, on their own 13. From
here on throughout the first per-iod,
the two teams traded punts
and neither one made much head-way
with the quarter ending with
Bethel in possession on the mid-stripe.
In the second quarter, Rochester
threatened early, but was stalled
on the Indian seven yard line.
Bethel took over, but the onrush-ing
opponents soon were knocking
at the goal again, still once again
were thrwarted, this time as Don
Schumacher intercepted a pass in
the end zone. However the Red-men
could make no headway, so
they punted.
As Rochester found the Indians
increasingly tough to get through,
they soon kicked to the Bethel
25 where it was run back to the
37. Then with every Bethel fan
roaring approval, Schumacher
tossed a beautiful aerial to Dick
Chadderdon who gathered it in
on the Rochester 33 and scamper-ed
the distance for a touchdown.
The extra point was good off the
toe of Chadderdon. The half end-ed
soon after.
In the second half, Bethel had
possession of the ball most of the
time in their opponents half of
the field, but because of many
penalties imposed on the Indians,
they were unable to make head-way
for a time.
With the fourth quarter barely
underway, the Indians marched
twenty yards with Pals, Schumach-er
and Chadderdon carrying. The
final smash of one yard was made
by Pals. The extra point try was
For the remainder of the game,
the ball was shoved back and forth
near mid-field. As the final horn
blew, Bethel was in possession on
Rochester's 45 yard line.

Parents urge communication as school system makes decision
For the second time in three months, K-8 and themed schools were brought before the Lenoir County Public Schools board by Superintendent Stephen Mazingo, but it resulted with no formal action being taken.
The meeting began with the board appointing Jon Sargeant as board chairman and Bruce Hill as vice chairman for 2014.
The real meat of the meeting came a bit later, when discussion of the concept of K-8 schools � transforming all elementary and middle schools in Lenoir County to kindergarten through eighth grade � began.
Several parents spoke during the public comment period, with a parent, Donna Vincent, voicing opposition to K-8, citing concerns over financial viability and capacity levels. Another parent, Nicole Tallman, said she supports the concept and encouraged Mazingo to continue his research and keep parents informed.
During the presentation portion of the meeting, Mazingo answered questions raised by board members at the October meeting. Questions were answered in the form of presentations by members of the central office.
Assistant Superintendent Diane Lynch spoke about why K-8 would need to be implemented before high school academies. These academies would focus on helping students become career ready.
�In order for our students to be able to choose the most appropriate academy that best fits their academic interests. They need to be exposed to what those choices are before they enter high school,� she said. �This exposure can best be done in the early years with career awareness and development opportunities.�
Ellen Benton, the school system�s executive director of instruction, spoke about what a theme school is and what it isn�t.
�Instruction in a theme-based school is the same as a traditional school in offering a basic education program, with value-added experiences based on theme. It will have the same instruction that we have now in our schools for general education purpose,� she said.
Benton said foundational reading and math would still be taught, and would still comply with North Carolina standards for a basic course of study.
Brent Williams, the school system�s executive director of operations, addressed issues relating to financial costs, separating students and transportation.
Williams said the end, transportation costs would go down. However, the cost savings would be offset by transporting students in each attendance zone to a common location for athletics.
Board members Merwyn Smith and Jon Sargeant, who both have children currently enrolled in Lenoir County schools, raised questions about older students interacting with younger students on buses.
Williams said one solution for buses would include having assigned seats, with younger students sitting in the front of the bus and older students sitting in the back. He also noted that Lenoir County�s current K-8 school � Contentnea-Savannah � is a model.
Mazingo also outlined seven goals he has for the school system, along with a vision statement. Goals listed included allowing every student to complete two years of college courses while in high school.
In the end, no action was taken on any possibilities involving K-8 or themed schools. However, Mazingo did say he is going to revamp the School System Improvement Task Force.
�I�m going to look at who served on the task force, where some of those gaps are because people I had originally asked and could not serve,� he said. �I will add parents and make sure all areas are represented. I will also invite someone from the media and fire it up again in January.�
He said the task force will also bring regular reports before the board pertaining to ideas on how to improve the school system.
�I do want to know what people are thinking as we go through ideas,� he said.

Regardless of your personal feelings toward one Tim Tebow, it can't be denied that he's good at getting people to talk about him. In politics, that kind of innate skill that can come in handy at opportune times. Combine that with his very clear views on certain topics and it's not much of a surprise to hear he hasn't ruled out tipping his toe in political waters when he's finished with his NFL career.
Rich Cimini of ESPN New York has Tebow's response, part of an extensive Q&A he conducted with the league's most famous second-stringer:
Q: With your popularity, especially in Florida, would you ever consider running for political office after you're done with football?
A: I haven't ruled it out. Whatever avenue I feel like I can make a difference in, I'd love to do. I haven't ruled out anything like that. It won't be anytime soon in my future, but it'll be something I'll at least look at and consider one day.
Obama loves him. Republicans love him. Seems like it's only a matter of time, you lucky Floridians.

How serious are the Cleveland Browns about drafting Johnny Manziel?
The club itself will have a better idea after Wednesday, as the former Texas A&M star will make his formal visit to the Browns just 15 days before general manager Ray Farmer and the staff may be faced with the decision with the No. 4 overall draft pick.
NFL Media insider Ian Rapoport confirmed Manziel's visit via Twitter. The meeting comes just a few days after Manziel went through a private workout for the Browns.
More than any other team in the NFL, the Browns' interest in the former Texas A&M star has been the subject of varying speculation since he announced he would enter the NFL draft in January. Prior to major turnover in its front office, the Browns were reportedly wild about the prospect of acquiring college football's most dynamic offensive player. Once Farmer was in place, however, the Browns-love-Manziel narrative quieted quickly. The trail went even colder when the Browns were one of only two teams not have a representative at Manziel's pro-day workout on March 27, though Farmer pointed out days earlier that a private workout would make for a better evaluation tool, anyway.
He followed through on the private workout over the weekend.
Whether he follows through with the pick is another matter entirely.
The possibility that no quarterbacks will be chosen early in the first round is one that draft experts are increasingly embracing. And you don't have to be an expert to take Minnesota Vikings general manager Rick Spielman at his public word, smokescreen or not. The good news for Farmer is that if Spielman's thinking also prevails in Houston (No. 1 pick) and Jacksonville (No. 3 pick), he just might end up with his choice of Manziel or any other quarterback in the draft.

I was sitting in front of my computer on the afternoon of March 6, 2010, when I got a Facebook instant message purporting to be from "Emma" (not her real name)—who is, it will be useful to note, in her mid-sixties and relatively conservative (as well as being a native and capable speaker of English). It quickly became clear that the real Emma's Facebook account had been hacked. Apart from changing the purported sender's name (and my wife's), I've reproduced the conversation just as it occurred.
2:50pm Emma
Hi,how are you?
2:50pm Gary
Good afternoon, Emma.
It's a pleasure to see you on FB.
2:51pm Emma
2:51pm Gary
How are you?
2:51pm Emma
but am not good at the moment..
2:51pm Gary
I wondered how APC would impact turnout at SS today. We had a relatively big group, but one composed entirely of regulars or semi-regulars.
Oh, my--what's the matter?
2:52pm Emma
am stuck in London with my family..
2:52pm Gary
London, where it's, what, 10:50 at night?
Doesn't sound fun at all.
Flight canceled?
On stand-by?
2:54pm Emma
we got mugged at gun point last night,
2:54pm Gary
So what's happened?
2:54pm Emma
they took all our cash,credit cards,and cellphones
it was so scary
2:55pm Gary
Oh, my . . . .
Any trip insurance?
2:56pm Emma
reported to the police,and canceled all cards,and bank accounts for now
all we have left are just our passports,and return tickets.
2:57pm Gary
Can your credit card companies get you substitute cards?
2:57pm Emma
that will be till I get back
but we need some money to settle the hotel bills,and then get a cab to the airport.
I need your help please!!
2:59pm Gary
OK--what can I do?
2:59pm Emma
I need you to loan me some money,
3:00pm Gary
What's the best way to handle that?
3:00pm Emma
I'll def refund you as soon as am back.
western union.
all you do is have it wired on my name,and location.
3:02pm Gary
How long have you been in London? That's just awful.
3:02pm Emma
just visited for a short vac
do you have any western union office nearby ?
3:03pm Gary
Hmmm . . . .
3:05pm Emma
3:07pm Gary
Trying to think
3:08pm Gary
Just sent you $250 to your PayPal account.
3:08pm Emma
I can't get that for now
guess it will be better with western union
I still have my passport for identification at western union.
3:10pm Gary
Where's the Western Union?
It may be near someone I know in London who could get you the money.
3:11pm Emma
you can google to find one nearby,
3:12pm Gary
No, I'm asking where the one is at which you'll be getting the money, to see if it's near where my friend lives.
3:12pm Emma
or you can have it done online with your credit card.
that is lavender hill
3:12pm Gary
Which hotel are you at? I can simply have my friend drop by with the money. That will be simplest. She can pay the hotel bill and give you some cash.
3:13pm Emma
I have limited time down here
that is why i ASKED YOU TO HAVE THE $250 wired on my name,and location via western union.
3:14pm Gary
Well, she can be there in half an hour.
3:15pm Emma
my flight might have left by then.
3:15pm Gary
Emma, because it's an emergency, I'm happy to try to help you, but after what you did I'm really kind of surprised you'd choose me to contact.
3:16pm Emma
as it seems at the moment,
3:17pm Emma
am really sorry if
am really sorry if
3:21pm Emma
are you theree?
3:24pm Gary
Are you going to keep your hands off my wife the next time you see her?
3:25pm Emma
please I promise I'll do anything you need.
3:26pm Gary
Carla is still in therapy because of what you did at that party.
3:46pm Emma
are you there?
are you still helping me out?
3:46pm Gary
Have you checked out of your hotel yet?
3:47pm Emma
need to settle the bills,before we leave.
3:47pm Gary
OK, what's the hotel?
3:48pm Emma
sunderland hotel
3:49pm Gary
But which Sunderland? I can arrange for the money to be at the desk in five to ten minutes.
3:53pm Emma
can you just help me out here?
3:53pm Gary
Yes, I can, as I said to you: I can have cold hard cash in your hands at the desk in five to ten minutes. But I first need to know which hotel you're at.
Please understand how angry Carla will be with me even for thinking of giving money to you.
If I wire money to London, she'll know.
But if I have Rowena drop it off for you, we can handle it under the table.
3:55pm Emma
how will she know?if you don't tell her?
3:55pm Gary
Because wiring it means using my credit card, and she reviews every credit card bill.
3:55pm Emma
just help me out if you can
3:55pm Gary
Look, are you at the Sunderland in Gosford Park?
3:55pm Emma
3:55pm Gary
I know that's where you stayed last time.
OK, which one?
3:56pm Emma
please enough of the questions and get me off here
3:56pm Gary
Emma, you're asking me to take a big risk with my wife, and I'm not sure why I should help someone who's behaved the way you have. Just stop being cagey and tell me which hotel you're at. Is it because you're there with Peter?
Is that why you don't want to tell me?
