McAfee recently released its annual "12 Scams of Christmas" list to educate the public on the most common scams that criminals use during the holiday season to take advantage of consumers as they shop on their digital devices. Cyber criminals leverage these scams to steal personal information, earn fast cash, and spread malware.
This year, fall holiday shopping sales are expected to soar to an estimated $602 billion. E-commerce sales are predicted to rise 15 percent compared to last year's digital sales to more than $60 billion, with m-commerce comprising 16 percent of this number. Consumers should ensure that they are taking all precautions to protect the data saved on their devices. This is especially true for the 51 percent of U.S. adults that bank online and 32 percent that use mobile banking.
"The potential for identity theft increases as consumers share personal information across multiple devices that are often under protected," said Michelle Dennedy, vice president and chief privacy officer at McAfee. "Understanding criminals' mindsets and being aware of how they try to take advantage of consumers can help ensure that we use our devices the way they were intended – to enhance our lives, not jeopardize them."
To help consumers stay alert for greedy Grinches as they surf the Web for holiday travel deals and seek out gifts for their loved ones, McAfee has identified this year's top "12 Scams of Christmas."

I am not sure if this my aunt Lily born 1915 or Ern's daughter Doris born 1908 . I suspect it is Doris as a toddler

By Ed Harris
Most of Southington's state legislators recently met with the Town Council and unfunded mandates, the possible elimination of the car tax and the MORE commission were the main topics of discussion.
The state and town officials had planned on having this meeting earlier in the year, when the legislative session had just begun in Hartford, but recent snowstorms pushed the date back a few weeks.
State Representatives Dave Zoni (D-Southington), Rob Sampson (R-Southington/Wolcott) and Al Aldinolfi (R-Southington/Cheshire/Wallingford) and state Senator Joe Markley (R-Southington/Cheshire/Prospect/Waterbury/Wolcott) attended the meeting with the council. State Rep. Joe Aresimowicz (D-Southington/Berlin) was away on business and unable to attend.
As it often does, unfunded mandates dominated the conversation.
"What can be done to soften the blow," questioned Southington Town Council Chairman John Dobbins.
The legislators were also questioned on what mandates they would get rid of, should they have the opportunity.
Markley noted that many of the mandates look like good policy, though he noted opposition to mandates.
"We should give more flexibility to the towns, not less," he said.
Sampson agreed with Markley, but added that it is often hard to nail down exactly which mandates to eliminate. "We want to make sure we eliminate them whenever possible," he said.
As for which specific mandates they would like to see cut or relooked at, Zoni mentioned special education funding, which he stated needed a change to the formula behind it and Aldinolfi wanted to get rid of prevailing wage.
Gov. Dannel Malloy's proposal to eliminate taxes on automobiles over $28,500 really riled up some of the councilors and legislators. It is believed that Southington would lose $8-9 million if the proposal were to go through.
"It was so ludicrous," said Town Council Vice-Chairman Peter Romano. "I just giggled at it."
Romano called Malloy arrogant for the proposal and referred to it as a "smoke screen" for something else.
Zoni defended Malloy's proposal, stating that the governor wanted a standard mill rate for cars, noting that cars didn't have different values just because of the different communities they were in. Therefore, they shouldn't be taxed at different rates, he said.
"The governor believes that the car tax is an unfair tax," Zoni said.

Why See Shakey Graves?
The Tour x9!
Alejandro Rose-Garcia (aka Shakey Graves) is one of Americana's real cult favorites. Since he first emerged in 2011 with his debut Roll Your Bones, he's been honing his lo-fi mix of country, blues and rock 'n' roll with understated ease, using Bandcamp as one of his major selling platforms. He's one of those rare artists that's equally enjoyable live as he is blasting from your car stereo on a road trip, his natural stage presence and energy making each live gig a unique experience of true Americana.
Now Shakey is back on the road to tour his recently released album 'Can't Wake Up'. The album comprises of 13 songs and ventures through reflections and life lessons of Rose Garcia's own personal life, stretching as far back as high school.

The Raiders announced the signing of Michigan safety Stevie Brown, taken in the seventh round of the draft.
All that remains are the top two picks _ Alabama linebacker Rolando McClain and Texas defensive tackle Lamarr Houston.
Houston said in a phone interview he was leaving negotiations up to his agent (Jordan Woy) but expected to be in uniform and practicing when the Raiders hold a double session a week from today.
Although the NFL released the Raiders reporting date as July 28, players actually arrive a day earlier, on Tuesday, and will spend Wednesday in a series of meetings in preparation for the first practices.
Coach Tom Cable will speak to the media Wednesday.
Dallas wide receiver Dez Bryant is the only wide receiver to have signed so far. Last year at this time, just two first-round picks had signed.
As the No. 8 overall pick, McClain can expect a contract roughly equivalent to last year's No. 7 selection, Darrius Heyward-Bey. Heyward-Bey received $23.5 million in guaranteed money.

You can uninstall it totally and automatically, leaving no mess on your Windows Register or disc.
It has multiple settings to fit several ways of spelling fractions. For example:
205.02 (two hundred five dollars and two cents)

The Hope College Knickerbocker Theatre in downtown Holland will open its fall film series with "Blue Jasmine" on Monday-Saturday, Sept. 30-Oct. 5, at 7:30 p.m.
The series is featuring a total of five films through November. Following "Blue Jasmine," the series will present "The Girls in the Band" (Oct. 7-12), "Austenland" (Oct. 14-19), "Still Mine" (Nov. 4-9), and "Wadja" (Nov. 18-23). All films will be shown at 7:30 p.m.
The latest effort from Woody Allen, "Blue Jasmine" follows the life of Jasmine, an elegant New York socialite portrayed by Cate Blanchett. After everything in her life falls to pieces, including her marriage to wealthy businessman Hal, she moves into her sister Ginger's modest apartment in San Francisco to try to pull herself back together again.
The "San Francisco Chronicle" has said that "Blue Jasmine" is "A jaw-dropping work, what we go to the movies hoping to see, and we do. Blanchett is beyond brilliant, beyond analysis. Her performance is one for the books."
"Blue Jasmine" was written and directed by Allen. In addition to Blanchett, the film stars Alec Baldwin, Sally Hawkins, Louis C.K., Bobby Cannavale and many others. "Blue Jasmine" is rated PG-13.
The documentary "The Girls in the Band," focuses on the untold stories of female jazz and big band instrumentalists and their journeys from the late 1930s to the present day. "The Girls in the Band" will be shown on Monday-Saturday, Oct. 7-12, and is not rated.
In the romantic comedy "Austenland," 30-something, single Jane Hayes (Keri Russell) spends her life savings on a trip to an English resort that caters to Austen-crazed women. While there she realizes that her fantasies of meeting the perfect Regency-era gentleman become more real than she ever could have imagined. The film will be shown Monday-Saturday, Oct. 14-19, and is rated PG-13.
"Still Mine" is based on true events and laced with wry humor. It is a heartfelt love story about an 89-year-old New Brunswicker (James Cromwell) who comes up against the system when he sets out to build a more suitable house for his wife (Geneviève Bujold), whose memory is starting to go. The film will be shown Monday-Saturday, Nov. 4-9, and is rated PG-13.
The final film in the fall series will be "Wadjda." An enterprising Saudi girl signs on for her school's Quran recitation competition as a way to raise the remaining funds she needs in order to buy the green bicycle that has captured her interest. The film will be shown Monday-Saturday, Nov. 18-23, and is rated PG.
Tickets for all of the films are $6 for regular admission and $5 for senior citizens, Hope College faculty, and children and are available at the ticket offices in the main lobby of the DeVos Fieldhouse (222 Fairbanks Ave.) and the Events and Conferences Office located downtown in the Anderson-Werkman Financial Center (100 E. Eighth St.). Both offices are open weekdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and can be called at (616) 395-7890.
Updated information may be obtained by visiting hope.edu/arts/knick.
The Knickerbocker Theatre is located at 86 E. Eighth St.

1. Introduce the Historical Journals
- Have the class read the two journal excerpts out loud.
- Analyze the contents of the journals.
- Hand out the Retrieval Charts.
- Discuss how to use the chart.
- Ask for examples of present-day "chores," "schoolwork," "play activities," food," and "transportation."
- Fill out the Retrieval Chart—one column for each journal.
- Make lists of the evidence on the board
- Have students make generalizations about transportation, chores, etc.
2. Continuity and change
- Compare the lists of past and present activities
- Discuss what has changed and what has remained the same
Questions to ask:
- Is the change for better or worse?
- What things have remained the same?
- What might stay the same for the next generation of school children?
- What things will be different for the next generation of school children?
- How are things different from what they are today?
3. Historical sources
- Now that students have a list of what they know about the diarists' lives, make a list of what they don't know.
- Brainstorm a list of sources from which they could find more information:
- photographs, letters, drawings, objects, gravestones, schoolbooks, children's books
- Consider calling your local historical society and either arranging a visit to examine their collections relating to nineteenth-century childhood, schooling, and farming or having someone bring some artifacts to school. To find an historical society near you, browse through our Directory of Local Historical Societies.
4. Write about it
Have students choose a perspective to tell a story about living in nineteenth-century Vermont. They could be:
- a time traveler coming from the present to a 19th-century farm or school.
- a time traveler coming from the 19th century to the present

So I'm studying for finals now, and came across the idea of homomorphisms again. This is not a new idea for me at all, having seen them in groups, rings, fields ect. However, on reevaluating them I realized suddenly that I really don't understand them on the same level as I thought. While isomorphisms seem to be very natural to think about, I can't visualize what's happening in homomorphisms. At this time, I only have a sketchy idea that the existence of a homomorphism between groups (or between groups and what they're acting on) means that they both somehow combine the same way..
Does someone mind sharing their intuition on the concept? As always, any help is appreciated, thanks

Jones Lang LaSalle reaction to first rise since May 2009
London, 7 April 2011 - As widely expected, the European Central Bank (ECB) today raised the main refinancing (refi) rate by 25 bps to 1.25 percent. They also lifted other key rates by 25 bps, leaving the interest rate "corridor" unchanged. This is the first change of official rates in the Euro area since May 2009.
Grant Fitzner, Head of EMEA Research at global commercial real estate firm Jones Lang LaSalle, commented: "It is unusual for the ECB to lead the rate tightening cycle, ahead of the Federal Reserve and other major central banks. This reflects a desire to start to normalise interest rates and remove their crisis premium, as well as concerns about rising inflation expectations."
"Europe's broad-based economic recovery has been mirrored in the commercial real estate market. Total gross returns for retail property in the Euro area rose by 13.5% last year, while for office property returns were up 19.1%. We expect further solid gains in 2011."
"While an aggressive tightening cycle would be expected to dampen the pace of recovery in the property sector, the gradual normalisation of rates announced today has been widely anticipated and will have a modest impact. Provided the European recovery remains on track we expect two further 25 bps increases this year, leaving the refi rate at a still low 1.75 percent by year-end."

Bishop spreads Lenten message around the diocese and world
TOOWOOMBA'S Catholic Bishop Robert McGuckin has used the popular video sharing website, YouTube, to spread his Lenten message.
Yesterday, Ash Wednesday marked the beginning of the 40 days of Lent; a time traditionally used for Christians to prepare for Easter.
Bishop McGuckin said Lent was an important time for many Catholics to reflect and repent.
This year he is inviting people to join him in the Vatican initiative, Fridays in Lent.
"Make your Fridays during Lent a special time of penance," he said.
"In modern Australia, traditionally the days of abstinence have been Ash Wednesday and Good Friday.
"However, this year, we are looking at making Fridays in Lent a day of abstinence, prayer and compassion."
Traditionally, Catholics have given up something for Lent to reflect the sacrifices made by Jesus.
"It is good to give up something and use the money you have saved to donate to Project Compassion," Bishop McGuckin said.
"In the past, I have seen families give up television for Lent, or others try to make the kids give up the computer."
What Is Lent?
- Lent is the penitential season of about 40 days set aside by the church in order for the faithful to prepare for the celebration of the Lord's death and resurrection.
- Church members prepare by offering penance, praying, fasting and almsgiving.
- Good Friday is on March 29, 2013

LOWELL -- Sydney Corcoran has cheated death once.
While crossing a busy street at Salisbury Beach in June 2011, Corcoran was struck by a car driven by a senior citizen. The accident left her with severe injuries, including a fractured skull.
But Sydney, 18, a Lowell High School senior bound for Middlesex Community College this fall, dug deep and fought valiantly to preserve her young life. Family members breathed sighs of relief, hoping they would never have to relive such a nightmare.
But on Monday, shrapnel from one of the bombs that exploded during the Boston Marathon shredded both of Sydney's legs, leaving her with deep arterial injuries, said her older brother, Tyler Corcoran, during an interview Tuesday morning in the kitchen of the family's home in the city's Pawtucketville neighborhood.
Sydney, with her mother, Celeste, and father Kevin, were in Boston to watch her aunt, Carmen Accabo, of Westford, finish the storied event. Celeste, too, was struck by shrapnel and overnight had both legs amputated below the knee, Tyler said. Kevin received minor injuries, but otherwise was physically okay. He was at the Boston Medical Center bedsides of both his wife and daughter Tuesday, said his brother, Tim Corcoran, of Rhode Island.
"My brother is just heartbroken, just devastated," Corcoran said on his cell phone as he drove up Interstate 95 to be with his brother.
Kevin drives a delivery truck for F.W. Webb Company, a Bedford-based plumbing supply company. Celeste is a hairdresser who works in a salon on Newbury Street in Boston.
Like his uncle, Tyler was also heading to the hospital today to be with his father, mother and sister. Tyler had planned to be with his family at the finish line Monday, but the Middlesex Community College student was scheduled to meet with a study group.
"I was supposed to be there," said Tyler, fighting back tears. "I didn't even think this whole thing was real until my phone started ringing like crazy later in the afternoon.
The explosive devices were detonated seconds apart, several hundred feet west of the finish line near the Boston Public Library, both near the Boylston-Exeter streets intersection. It's unclear precisely where the Corcoran family stood. Tyler said his father described a surreal scene of gusts of wind generated by the blasts and "debris flying everywhere." Three people were killed, including an 8-year-old Dorchester boy, and nearly 200 were injured, many seriously.
"My father said everyone seemed in a daze. He looked down and saw my mom and her eyes were open. Once he realized she was alive, he noticed both her legs hanging on by skin. He asked a guy for a belt."
Tyler said her sister was just nearby. "Her legs were hit pretty bad," said Tyler.
"I thought we were done with traumatic events," added Tyler.

A gut-wrenching picture of Sydney being treated by two unidentified men is in today's Boston Globe, Tyler and his lifelong friend, Tom Janeiro, noted.

The Tuberculosis rate in King County is more than 50% above the national average.
King County resident Robert Murphy was at work one day and in isolation the next with infectious TB. Enrique Cerna brings us local connections to the global TB epidemic and efforts to eradicate this deadly disease.
See his report now, then tune in to the FRONTLINE special "TB Silent Killer."
Tuberculosis was once thought to be a disease of the past. But with virulent new drug-resistant strains emerging faster than ever, TB — passed simply by a cough or a sneeze — is the second leading cause of death from an infectious disease on the planet. In TB Silent Killer, FRONTLINE presents an unforgettable portrait of the lives at the pandemic's epicenter.
The King County TB rate is more than 50 percent above the national average. Newly released figures from Public Health – Seattle/King County show 114 active cases of TB diagnosed last year, which is six cases more than in 2012. And, public health officials have noted that an estimated 100,000 King County residents are infected with TB, but the microbe is dormant. Because this region is a hub for international travelers, health officials are also concerned that county residents are more vulnerable to the spread of TB, which infects one-third of the world's population and last year claimed 1.3 million lives.

RESOURCESKCTS 9's Enrique Cerna with IDRI founder Steve Reed
Seattle is home to major global organizations working to eradicate infectious diseases like tuberculosis.
IDRI, Infectious Disease Research Institute, is a non-profit that develops new TB drugs and vaccines. IDRI was instrumental in the discovery and early evaluation of the first protein-based TB vaccine candidate. Even as this vaccine candidate continues to advance through the development process, IDRI is working on a next-generation vaccine that could prevent and potentially treat multi drug-resistant TB. In addition to its vaccine program, IDRI is focused on developing a rapid and effective TB diagnostic test. The efforts in this area are supported by IDRI's expansive collection of TB antigens. IDRI also acquired exclusive rights to MicronJet, an intradermal delivery system that enables improved tuberculin skin testing. Along with its partner, Chembio, a prototype diagnostic test has been developed that rapidly detects active TB, providing significant advantages over current diagnostic methods. Learn More.

Masking Tape Dress
Added Jan 14, 2012
by melonhead
Roanoke, Indiana...
I made this dress for the Scholastic Art and Writing competition. It's made completely out of masking tape and let me just tell you that it was a bit of a sticky situation (haha pardon the pun, but I just couldn't help myself). I was inspired by architecture and an empty butterfly chrysalis.
I first constructed the underneath by using a stiff interfacing. Next I had to add a couple of layers of masking tape on top of that in order to get the length where I wanted it. Then I started adding, one by one, layers of masking tape starting from the bottom. I used over 18 rolls of masking tape and over 80 hours went into making the dress. The dress is completely wearable. It has a zipper sewn in the back for getting in and out of.
I might have nightmares about wads of tape attacking me in my sleep, but I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Haha. I just dropped it off for judging and I find out Sunday if it got in. Oh I'm so nervous! Wish me luck and I hope you like it :)

This is genuinely beautiful. The detail is fantastic, especially across the bust. I'm so so impressed! I hope you win the national prize!
Also, a little selfishly, it's exactly the design I want for my wedding dress! Do you have a pattern you used for the interfacing? I know it's a simple design, but I've not been able to find something that fits exactly with what I want, which this dress totally does!
Anyway, well done, and you deserve to win!

Awe thank you! I actually found out last week that it did win a national gold medal :) I have no clue how I'm going to ship the dress to New York though!! haha
Awh I wish that I could help you out, but I actually can't find where the pattern went too :/ I need to clean my room more often! It's a pretty simple dress though, when it comes to construction. All it is, is a basic corset bodice with a circle skirt. Hopefully that helps a little?
Good luck with your wedding dress!!

Psychology Class Visits
Faribault Feeble-minded
On Wednesday afternoon, November 18th, Professor Royal Bloom
and eighteen Bethel students who are majoring in Psychology, spent
the afternoon in an extensive tour of the Minnesota School and Colony
for the Feeble Minded at Faribault, Minnesota.
The group was introduced to the institution by one of the social
workers. This particular colony for the feeble minded is the largest in
Minnesota. There are some 2,850 inmates and 550 staff workers. The
plant includes 33 buildings and a hospital unit.
The inmates can be classified into three classes; the idiot, whose
mental development is that of the two year old; the imbecile whose
mental developement ranges from
approximately 3-7 years; and the
moron whose mental developement
rarely exceeds that of the twelve
year old. Individuals of the idiot
level are unable to guard them-selves
against such common phy-sical
dangers as fire or falling
down stairs. They are unable to
care for their own physical hy-giene
and therefore must be wash-ed,
dressed, fed, and kept phy-sically
clean. They rarely learn to
speak and are almost completely
lacking in memory and imagina-tion.

Gallno will leave the campus No-vember

rendered by the Chapel Choir, re-presenting
the music department
of the school. The athletic program
as climaxed in football was pre-sented
by team co-captains, John
Viren and Ronald Skoog, who
sketched their experience of play-ing
on a united, Christian team to
the glory of God.
The male quartet, James Rentz,
Bruce Woodman, Lloyd Cummings,

study in music and verse and pro-vided
a musical background for

Pres. Wingblade gave a graphic
presentation of the spiritual and
material necessity of the daily
Chapel programs in the worship
'ife of the students.
Closing on the theme, "Arise
and go to Bethel and build an altar
to your God", Dr. Widen outlined
the scope of the Centennial pro-gram
and tentative building plans,
inviting those present to partici-pate
in reaching the goal for 1952.
Closing prayer was offered by
Dr. G. Arvid Hagstrom, President
emeritus, followed by the benedic-tion
by Mr. Wyman Malmsten.
The Centennial Anniversary pro-gram,
as tentatively outlined, in

of the present library and
Hagstrom residence, and the fut-ure
construction of a new chapel,
music and administrative unit as
an extension of the library struc-ture
and a separate athletic build-ing

Sophomore Committee
Dick Anthony, chrmn:
The imbecile is usually able to
guard himself against the common
physical dangers, but is incapable
of self support. He can be taught
very simple skills and usually
learns to speak a little. The moron
is, under certain circumstances,
able to become self sustaining. He
can be trained to work and to read
and write and do simple arithme-tic.
He has no imagination or reas-oning
powers. These are the class-es
of individuals that the Psy-chology
student had the opportun-ity
to observe.
A few of the types the stu-dents
observed were the Mongo-loid,
the microcephalic, the mac-rocephalic,
the hydrocephalic and
the Cretin. The etiological factors
of mental deficiency are many and
varied. They include hereditary
factors, germinal factors, embry-onic
factors, fetal factors, intrana-tal
factors, and postnatal factors
and undetermined factors.
In the process of the tour, each
of the group was entertained by
the singing and dancing of one
inmate and the piano playing of
another. In the school, they saw
the moron as he learned to read,
and write, and do simple and com-plex
manual skills.
Realizing the mental deficien-cies
of these individuals the visi-tors
from Bethel were surprised
at the degree of skill that some
of the inmates had attained in
weaving, sewing, embroidering,
lace making, and other such man-ual
tasks. Other inmates worked
in the laundry, and as janitors.

Thanksgiving Used
For B WA Mon.
An informal meeting with a
Thanksgiving theme was held in
the Woman's Dormitory nine-thir-ty
last Monday night. Barbara
Mullin was in charge of the pro-gram
and Gloris Swanberg was in
charge of refreshments.
The meeting opened with prayer
by Ardis Anderson and the read-ing
of Psalm 100 by Barbara Mull-in.
Music on the program began
with a piano solo, Liszt's Liebest-raum,
by Nadine Westin. The
girls trio, Beverly Harris, Barbara
Port, and Carol Bessey used the
occasion of their first song, "Bless-ed
Be The Name", to get used to
playing on their ukuleles, after
which they also sang "Thanks to
God" and "We Gather Together".
Iva Strandlund sang. "Great Is Thy
Faithfulness" and Florence Jacob-son
played "Praise Him! Praise
Him!" on the bells.
The announcement that high-lighted
the evening was made after
the ice cream and cookies had
been passed out. Beverly Harris
announced that although the girls
knew about it already Nikolina
Dag was now officially proclaimed.

The thing you've been dreading,
anticipating ("Who are you ask-ing?"
"Did you ask him yet?" "Is
he going?") and planning for will
be coming off right after Thanks-giving—
Thursday night, November
Mickolin's Dag—the Swedish
version of Sadie Hawkin's Day—
has been tossed around until the
big day is just around the corner.
Sponsored by the Sophomore
Class, the affair has Bev Harris as
its chairman, with her committee
also comprising Jo Johnson, Elaine
Holmquist, George Visel, and Hen-ry
Quiring, as well as the class
president, John Viren.
The evening social beginning at
7:30 will be in the form of a
mixer to be held in the College
gym. According to Miss Harris,
school clothes are to be worn.
Girls are to make vegetable cors-ages
or bow ties for their dates
and are to exhibit all the common
date courtesies they would expect
a boy to give them.
Among the games and relays to
be participated in will be the gay
"tunnel of love". The rest of the
program and personnel are to be
a surprise to the crowd.
Dr. Holmer Is
PDG Speaker
For Nov. 28
On Tuesday, November 28th, the
day school is resumed after
Thanksgiving vacation, Dr. Paul
Holmer, professor of philosophy
at the University of Minnesota,
will speak before the Progressive
Discussion Group, at a meeting to
be held in the seminary lounge be-ginning
at 9:00 P. M. Dr. Holmer
is an authority in the philosophy
of the 19th century Danish phil-osopher
Kierkegaard and will dis-cuss
with the group Kierkegaard's
attitude toward the scriptures.
This meeting will take the place
of the previously announced No-vember
21st meeting which was
post-poned because of fall quarter
final examinations.
Any of the campus male pers-onnel
who qualify for membership
and are interested in becoming
members of the Progressive Dis-cussion
Group are invited to at-tend
this discussion with Dr. Holm-er
as speaker, it was announced
by Roger Hedberg, group pres-ident.
Business to be taken up at the
meeting will include the voting on
an adoption for ammending the
PDG constitution under article II:
Membership. This ammendment
states that any one interested in
membership in the group, may be
given membership by showing in-terest
by attendance and during
the spring quarter of the year in
which he seeks membership, be
moderator of a discussion, writing
up a summary of the discussion.
This is offered as an alternative
to the former requirement of writ-ing
a paper on any current topic
in world affairs or in Christianity.
Kick-off Banquet Begins March

Launching the promotion of one-half million dollar Centennial
Anniversary building program on the Bethel campus, a kick-off banquet
was served to one hundred and thirty church leaders of the Twin
Cities and surrounding areas on Monday evening, Nov. 13, in the Bethel
dining room.
Dr. W. F. Widen, chairman of the Board of Education, presided as
Master of Ceremonies and introduced a program presenting the goals
of the promotional campaign as represented in three phases of student
life and activities on campus—music, athletics, and worship.

The 'Thanks' In Thanksgiving (Etnig of 1E bouctht
by Henry
Thanksgiving is the strange practice of
Americans. Such, perhaps would be the
definition given by those living without
our nation. And, in most instances, their
definition would be applicable to the prac-tice
which exists. The original custom
carried cut was that of thanks•giving. Giv-ing
thanks unto God for his many bless-ings.
But we have made it a feast for
At no other season of the year do we
eat so much. In fact, we stuff ourselves.
Food has become our first thought; thanks
our last.
It is time for us to "awake" and to get
back to the original meaning of Thanks-giving.
Not only in this specific season,
Just about two years ago was the time
that Virginia Lovaas, a Bethel freshman,
became afflicted with polio and was taken
away to Ancker Hospital.
The dramatic story of her recovery was
told to this reporter by the quiet, dark
girl in a simple way, sliding over the
parts where her own effort played a
Sheltering Arms,
a polio hospital in
Minneapolis w a s
the scene of Virg-inia's
many answers
to prayer. She tells,
"When I came there
I just didn't care
about getting well
for a time. Then
with the encourage-ment
of a certain
technician I w a s
forced into walk-ing."
Here she experienced one of her first
answers to prayer, many of which had
come from special prayer meetings at
Bethel. After a week of using sticks (she
now uses these supports which are simi-lar
to crutches) she was able to go home
without her wheel chair. The wheel chair
played only a small part in the perform-ance
for after three months of it, Virginia
began walking constantly on her sticks.
At the hospital she is referred to as an
"outsanding case" because the doctors had-n't
been sure how long 'till she'd walk

Editorial .. .
I liked the statement Miss Oesterle made
last Wednesday in chapel. She said that it
has not been the testimony by word of
mouth that has particularly blessed her
during her stay on campus, but that it has
been what she has sensed in lives that were
moving in routine activity, being unaware
that an impression was being made. Here,
I thought, was concrete evidence on our
own campus of something Christians talk
much about; exerting an influence by 'liv-ing
the life'. I was glad it could be said
abdut our campus.
Yet, by this chapel testimony I became
aware again of how often one should keep
in check that which he speaks in testi-mony
regarding his Christian experience.
Too often words are spoken in an honest
effort to make the influence we want to
make. Unfortunately, certain verbal testi-monies
become an offense rather than a
wholesome attractive source of power and
blessing to the hearers.
Through this testimony we heard in
chapel, we know that "living the life" has
borne fruit. I was challenged anew to 'live
the life' as I saw that it does mean some-thing
to others. In defining for myself
what this idea was all about I thought that
at least it might mean more devotion to
God and his principles of life, and at the
same time more industry in performing
asks well, not so much that I say some-thing.
Shop atitivie
by Marjorie Ford
Who is she? "Mona Lisa Erickson" or "A
Little Girl Left Waiting At The Ladies
Aid"? Why are the shadows in the wrong
places on that grain elevator? Who can
make sense out of that whirl of technicolor
feather dusters? so runs coffee shop rep-artee.
Why not ask Gene Johnson? He is the
artist responsible for the cultural conver-sation-
pieces complimenting sale of Gus's
`Swedish gasoline'.
When approached on the subject, 'Gene'
shyly chuckled and stated that there are
no hidden meanings nor exciting stories
behind his work in the coffee shop but
the rather mundane motivation of produc-ing
required projects for summer sessions
art work at the U. of Iowa, where he is
taking graduate study toward his master or
Fine Arts Degree.
Mr. Johnson declines to be classed as an
artist of any particular school, though he
enjoys the impressionistic type of express-ion.
The cock fight he suggests calling
"Fighting Feathers", stressing the move-ment,
color and action of the fight, not the
birds—art not of the taxidermist but the
T. V. sports commentator. The grain eleva-tor
is not intended to show the way the
sun shines in Iowa but just to present
a pleasing form of line and shadow that
invites, the vewer to step n, look around
and enjoy himself. The girl on the farm
might have been finished very differently
or not at all, except that her production
was to prove the artist of the cock fight
could do something completely different.
Mr. Johnson, as he is known to his Bible
Survey students, is a graduate of Bethel
Seminary and spent two years of his coll-ege
career at Bethel and two at the Univ-ersity
of Southern California.He did some
pastoral work on the coast and traveled
in an evangelism team with Rev. Harold
Carlson and Lloyd Nordstrom.
"Gene's" art work is especially apprecia-ted
around Bethel, for, as one student put
it, "Well, at least when you're gazing into
two orbs of blue and coherent thought
fails, you can depend on sighing and say-ing,
'And what does that picture remind
you of?"
but to realize anew the need of giving
thanks every day of the yea..
Many are the blessings for which we
can give thanks. So often we forget the
simple matter-of-fact blessings. The air we
breath; the food we eat; the bed upon
which we lie each evening; sight, ability
to speak and converse intelligently with
others; physical strength.
God's Word plainly declares, "In every-thing
give thanks for this is the will of
God in Christ Jesus concerning you." (I
Mess. 5:18). As you enjoy the fel owship
o1 loved-ones and friends this Thanks-giving
season, remember its purpose.
Thank God for all His blessings. Consider
and apropriate to the needs of others. God
will add other blessings.
A whole chain of events—of definite
answers to prayer—make up the story with
wFiich Virginia said she "could keep us
entertained for hours" in her testimony
at the Freshman Retreat. One of these
incidents came when she decided it was
time for her to go home. After much
prayer, Virginia announced her decision to
the doctors. Amazed at her determination
they considered, calculated, and then sent
her home. That night a verse in Virginia's
devotions struck her—"Is anything too
hard for the Lord?"
"At home convalescing, I was led into
the work of the church, which I wouldn't
have had an opportunity to participate in
before. The Lord provided so that I could
teach an Intermediate Sunday School class
and also help in D.V.B.S."
Dark-eyed Virginia feels that Christ def-initely
led her back to Bethel, for the
superintendent informed her that the Vo-cational
Rehabilitation Fund would pay
her tuition.
Virginia descrilles her two years away
from Bethel, and as a semi-invalid, as a
wonderful time of blessing from the Lord.
"Because I had to depend on Him so much,
I was certainly drawn closer to Him," she
So, if you want a thrilling story of
the reality of God, get Virginia to go into
detail on the way God moved in her life.
She'll tell you how He overcame her fears,
answered her prayers, and brought her into
spiritual victory with Him.
President Wingblade
This is the season when we are reminded
in a special way to be thankful. The word
think and thank come from the same root.
How true it is that We are not likely to b
thankful unless we ai'e thoughtful.
The Bible warns us to "think on our
way." That is, to consider searchingly our
life and what we are making of it.
A successful business man was asked
the secret of his success. He answered that
he had made it a practice for years ti
spend a period of time each day thinking
through hip business program and life's
urogram prayerfully, and to note the im-provement
that could be made.
Another outstandingly successful man,
when asked the same question, took his
fi iend into his private office and then
into an "inner, inner office" as he termed
it. There was a chair and a table with a
Bible on it.
"This, he said, is the place where I meet
each day with my silent Senior Partner.
We talk over the problems and the needs.
Here is the secret and the source which
accounts for the atmosphere which char-acterizes
my organization."
Years ago it was quite the thing to have
an efficiency expert visit plants and make
a study of the program and then bring
suggestions for improvement—to eliminate
waste and to improve output.
Individuals need something like that for
personal efficiency—somebody to make a
study of them and then report. It might
not be so pleasant. People do not like to
go to a doctor to discover whether or not
they have cancer��or some minor ailment.
They would rather drift, and then it may
be, suddenly realize that ciestruction had
come upon them.
The wise man goes to the doctor to
get the truth. The wise man seeks diligent..
ly to improve himself morally and spirit-ually.
Benjamin Franklin discovered thir-teen
faults in his life. He determined to
spend a Week on each to eliminiate it, and
then if there was any left at the end of
the thirteen weeks, he would begin all
over. No doubt he made some progress.
But how much better to have a silent
Senior Partner who knows all about us
and loves us,—and is willing and able to
transform our entire personality for the
purpose of highest efficiency.
The recipe is to think in His presence
and to thank Him unceasingly for His
transforming work.
Martyrdom Has
Its Moments
by Ann Radunz
Most of us undoubtedly have heard about
Thanksgiving, and even a few intellectual
souls know why it was originated, but how
many know of the part that young Jona-than
Pringleweed played? No one! Well,
I don't doubt it in the least, as Johnny
is only a figment of my poor imagination,
and would hardly be read about in a hist-ory
book, but, to me, he\ is the founder
and the foundation of this old tradition.
Jonathan Pringleweed was not like most
men of his times, in fact, he wasn't even
regarded as a man, but was considered
strictly for the birds. But this is not at
all surprising, for most turkeys are birds,
and Johnny certainly was no exception.
But one day, disaster struck! The white
mc.n sent out a petition among the turk-eys
to obtain recruits for a huge feast
they were preparing, and not one single
turkey responded. Johnny realized that if
no one volunteered, the women and child-ren
from their flock would be forcefully
taken along with the men, and this, he
would not tolerate.
The first name to appear at the top of
tha list, the name that embarrassed the
courageous and spurred on the cowardly,
was that of Jonathon Pringleweed. He was
happy to do something for his country and
deeply honored at the thought of being
the first turkey used in the Thanksgiving
The day approached and the rejoicing
crowd drew together, giving thanks for the
bounty of food and blessings. But one little
turkey was by far the happiest at the
occasion, even though he was in a stew.
Prayer and Perseverance
Conquer Polio
by Marty
Battle of the Books
by Jean Hoskings
While many and varied ideologies are vying for acceptance with a book-buying
public, those who have the true gospel of Christ are just beginning to realize the
potent challenge of recent public interest in serious reading. Wilbur M. Smith in
"Therefore Stand" talks about the "battle of the books". Far from winning this
important battle, in his opinion, evangelical Christians are not even in it to any
appreciable extent.
The other night I noticed a review in the November Christian Life of an Inter-varsity
Christian Fellowship book entitled "The World's Religions", edited by J. N.
D. Anderson. It reminded me of how a student of Bible Institute of Pennsylvania
told me last winter that their instructor had looked for a textbook to use in a class
of comparitive religion but found none that could even be adapted to evangelical
needs. The instructor had pointed out that here was something for a Christian with
proper training and ability to do. This review encouraged me to believe that here
was one book need that had been met.
Publishers like Wm. B. Eerdman, Zondervan, and Moody Press who are especially
committed to the publication of evangelical literature complain that they cannot get
carefully written material. In order to be able to print more worth-while books they
have resorted to reprinting works of Christians of other ages. Typical of this is the
Christian Classic series published by Moody Press. Such books are a real adventure
to experience and have some pertinent things for us to apply in our Christian lives
today, but they are still of the past. We need books of today to meet today's chall-enge.
Although the need is for a great number of books, the need is for books of such
caliber that they require much as years of patient research, in order to stand beside
the best the world can offer.
It means more than initial inspiration. It means hours of pouring over volumes
heavy in more ways than one, hunting for obscure details, carefully checking facts.
Among both writers and publishers there is an awareness of the poor quality of
evangelical writing and contests offering prizes for better work have been launched
as one effort to improve this condition. Besides reprints, there are some good books
being published which have a ,real evangelical message and are carefully done. Still,
much that comes from evangelic-al publishers are not worth the costly expenditure
of publishing them.
Not much will be done about really getting into the "battle of the books" until
Christians as a whole see the importance of publishing a literature to represent
the ideals and aims of our evangelical faith. We need to consider publishing Christian
books and magazines not as a sidelight to the ministry, mission field, and Christian
education, but as an integral part of them without which they could not go far.

Faculty Recital
The some two hundred persons
who were in attendance at the
Chamber Music Recital in the Coll-ege
Chapel on November the third
heard the works of Buxtehude,
Handel, Raid, and Brahms, well
performed. The music was made
to speak to our hearts and lifted
us above our mundane living.
Mildred BisgrOve, pianist; Valdeko
Kangro, • violinist; and Kaljo Raid,
'cellist were the artists of the
The works performed were high-ly
appreciated by the audience,
especially Mr. Raid's own Duo for
Violin and Cello, and the Brahms
Trio Sonata. It is not very often
that we here at Bethel, are privi-ledged
to hear a concert of such
a high calibre and yet performed
by Christian musicians. We should
be thankful to God for providing
such fine consecrated musical tal-ent
for our cultured education and
spiritual edification.
Present at the evening's concert
was Mr. Charles E. Herbrig, the
maker of Valdeko Kangro's violin.
He operates his violin shop at the
First Federal Building, 5th and Ce-dar,
in St. Paul. Mr. Kangro's vio-lin
is valued at $1,000, and Mr.
Herbrig makes three or four such
violins per year, plus other cheap-er
ones. He also does repair work.
It took him eight months to com-plete
work on Mr. Kangro's vio-lin.
This violin is made after the
Stradivari style, made of imported
Maple from the Carpachian Hills
of Czecholslovakia. The top wood
is a special fine grain of Feathered
Spruce, imported from Czecholslo-vakia.
Born in Minnesota, Mr. Her-brig
has been in the violin pro-fession
since 1910. He learned his
profession both by observing pro-fessionals,
and by learning from
other violin makers.

Debaters to Enter Six Major Tournaments
Left to right, Annamarie Oesterle, Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Norquist
as they appeared shortly after Annamarie's arrival at Bethel a year
ago. The three are examining colored slides of Germany. Mr. Norquist
returned to Germany in August to represent the Baptist General
Conference and the Baptist World Alliance in missionary work among
the displaced persons of that country. Annamarie will sail from New
York December 8.
The Challenge Is Made
Will Bethel Answer?
by Margaret Sheffler
"Leaving Bethel is like leaving home," Annemarie was saying, "and
yet .... there will be new challenges in Germany." It was Wednesday
afternoon. I tried to forget that the dark-haired girl with the firm
challenging ring in her voice would be leaving the campus in one more
She would work for a German publishing house, perhaps. To teach
German young people of the Christ she loved would be her first
goal, though, I knew. But it was not as simple as that. Her home-ties were
cut. She could not be sure, even, that she could obtain lodging in what-ever
German city she found employment.
Russia casts a shadow on her homeland, but the girl in the bright
blue sweater could still smile. 'Christ is the answer,' she declared
firmly. "The leaders in Germany do not have the answer to social
problems. Christ is the answer."
Then came the quick, stern questions with which she has challeng-ed
my own life since first she took Christ as her Saviour.
"Why do American Christians—the Christians at Bethel—do so
little to see that the American government follows Christian principles?
Why do they not exercise more of a voice in the government, since
democracy gives them that opportunity? Christ is the only answer
for them, too." Christianity, if it is Christ-centered, ought to produce
good citizens according to Annemarie's reasoning.
And I knew she was right. She was challenging Bethel to act.
I remembered that the first time I saw Annemarie was in the
Norquist living room in St. Paul about a year ago. She was a little
unsure of the American way of life, but interested in democracy even
then. Her first impressions of Bethel had not yet congealed into words.
She needed "a day to reflect between each day's activity."
"I 'have come to the conclusion," she told me gravely later on,
"that Christianity is more than a way of life. Christianity is a Person—
the Lord Jesus Christ."
From that time on she grew in the Lord. Christ was to her a
marvelous discovery. He over-ruled every discouragement. Her confi-dence
in Him seemed unshakeable. She wrote an article for the Stan-dard,
emphasising the Christian life as a process of growth. And for
her it is that. She will settle for no less.
"You ought to get two pairs of good walking shoes before you go
back to Germany," a well-meaning Bethelite counselled Annemarie.
"So that the Russians can have them when they take Germany
over?" was Annemarie's rejoiner. But she grinned as she said it. She
had Christ and He is more powerful than the Russians.
"I would be discouraged at having to go back," someone told her.
"I was born a pessimist." "Oh?" came from Annemarie, "the second
time, too?"
Annemarie will leave campus Wednesday morning, heading for
NeW York and eventually, Heidelburg. But Bethelites will not forget
the German exchange student. "You have so much!"—her words will
echo in their memory. "Trust your Christ and share Him with others.
Put a Christian emphasis into your government. Christ is the answer."
Yes, the words will echo in Bethel's memory, but the test of
thought is action.

Also Schedule Interschool Debates
With Local Colleges Dec.-April
A full schedule of tournaments has now been planned for the
debaters this year. Besides the various interschool debates with colleges
in the Twin City area, the debaters will enter the following tourna-ments:
Iowa State Teachers College, Cedar Falls—December 8 & 9.
Red River Valley Tournament, Concordia College and Moorhead
State Teachers, Moorhead—February 2 & 3.
Eau Claire State Teachers College, Eau Claire—February 16 & 17.

1, 2 & 3.
Delta Sigma Rho—U. of Wisconsin Tournament, Madison, Wiscon-sin—
March 9 & 10.
University of Minnesota Tournament, Minneapolis—April 6 & 7.
The teams are now shaping up and are showing more promise
than originally anticipated. While only a few of those out have had
any appreciable experience, a great deal of interest is being shown
in the very pertinent question: "Resolved, that the non-Communist
nations would form a new international union."
If there is any area where
teachers, preachers and the like
need to be informed it is in this
one, for the problem of world
government promises to be the
most important question of the
coming century (provided mankind
exists that long). Those of us who
have been blessed with the oppor-tunity
of an education have a duty
of searching out the facts and of
bringing to the public unprejudic
ed and honest clarification of the
issues which arise and if we fail
in this duty it will be a case of the
blind leading the blind, a situa-tion
which we in America can ill
afford to tolerate in these days of
extreme international tension. A
debater who stays out for the sea-son
is very fortunate in that he
is given the opportunity first, to
learn all about the U. N. with its
strengths and weaknesses and
secondly, he is given the oppor-tunity
to discuss it with some of
the leading students In the coll-eges
of the Northwest. One who
stays out for the entire season
will find himself so full of infor-mation
at the end that he will
have little difficulty in discussing
with the very learned the ins and
outs of the U. N.
Here is a real opportunity for
those who wish to grow in this
respect. It is late but tryouts are
still being given to those who
still wish to learn the art of pub-lic
speaking through debate.

At long last I have my new column head. Now I shall ask you
faithful three people that read this column to quit wondering what
happened. It's just that after ordering it fairly early in the year, it
got stalled somewhere and it did not arrive until a short time ago.
Now, I suppose that the rest of my staff, Oliver DuFrene, and Wilbur
Madsen (he promised to write a story some day), will want their
names in big type too!
After watching some of the basketball workouts, I have drawn a
few conclusions. Bud Pierce is one of the finest players I have seen.
Pete Unruh, Gordy Johnson, Art Hage, and Dick Bandy all look very
good in their off asive work. Looking great defensively are Dean
Stromwell, a fine ball handler, and his running mate, Gene Messenger.
Chuck Lindgren and Ralph Martin both have the height on the team-the
boy named Chuck goes way up to 6-5, and Ralph measures about
6-3. The prospects for the season look good to me. Be at the first home
game on December 5!

In Football Final
In the final football game of the
season, Bethel downed Austin 14-
6. The game, played October 27,
was at Austin. The win gave the
squad a season mark of five wins
and one loss.
Both teams displayed a fierce
type of football as they tackled
savagely and blocked expertly.
Several players on both sides were
injured in the fray.
Although Bethel held command
throughout most of the game, they
had to fight continuously to main-tain
their advantage. Scoring in
the second quarter on a one-yard
smash was Don Spratt after a sus-tained
drive of 27 yards. Dick
Chadderdon ran for the extra
In the third quarter Ron Skoog
broke loose for a 16 yard dash to
scoring ground. Once again, Chad-derdon
ran the point after touch-down.
The score at the end of
three quarters was 14-0.
Austin picked up their score in
the last quarter on long passes.
Penalties against Bethel helped
the Blue Devil cause as they drove
62 yards, climaxed by a two yard
smash by Gene Goich. The extra
point was no good.

Sport Shots Taken
Monday night, November 27. Hoping to start off the season with a
win, the Bethel cagers will take on the Martin Luther team which
they beat twice last year in a game at New Ulm, Minnesota.
The first home game of the season will be the second scheduled
game, that with Northwestern Schools of Minneapolis. This contest
will be played at Minnehaha Academy as will all Bethel home games.
Following these two opening
games wil come tilts with Itasca,
Northland, Bethany, Austin, Con-cordia,
and probably with Wart-burg,
Worthington, Waldorf and
possibly others.
The entire squad .which consists
of about twenty five at the pre-sent
time, has been practicing
hard in daily workouts. Much of
the talent is new, although some
of the candidates are familiar, hav-ing
played last year. A squad cut
is expected soon, after which those
named to compose this year's team
will aim for the Luther game.
At present, those who appear
most likely due for positions on
the first ten are: Bud Pierce, Pete
Unruh, Art Hage, Dick Bandy,
Gordy Johnson, Ralph Martin,
Gene Messenger, Dean Stromwell,
Chuck Lindgren, and Wayne
Thompson. Pushing them hard for
starting positions are: Lowry Fred-erickson,
Art Vogel, Cliff Ander-son,
Dave Sheldon, and Jim Lem-on.
Getting a late start because they
played on the grid team, but
nevertheless trying hard are the
following: Clarence Anderson, Rod
Kjell, Ray Brace, Stan Mayer, Don
Spratt, Dick Chadderdon, and Bob
Schumacher. Two of the fellows
Harry Nelson, and Ron Nelson are
on the sidelines at present with
Coach Del Ray Peterson, aided
by Elmer Fischer, is working the
squad in two hour drills daily in

in the Minnehaha gym on several
occasions to acquaint the fellows
with the floor on which they will
be playing. The manager of the
team has been named in the per-son

VisitRochester CEO to retire in August
Donald Jeffries: Running the business of putting on shows
Donald Jeffries has been named president and CEO of the Greater Rochester Visitors Association Inc., effective Jan. 15. He replaces Edward Hall, who retired at the end of August.
GRVA, which markets itself as VisitRochester, worked with Cochran, Cochran & Yale LLC to spearhead a national search for the new CEO.
"Mr. Jeffries has outstanding credentials and will no doubt do an excellent job building upon VisitRochester's success in attracting and hosting visitors to Monroe County and the surrounding region," GRVA chairman Craig Curran said in a statement.
In his role at VisitRochester, Jeffries will focus on business growth through convention bookings, tourism marketing and event promotion to visitors. He will spend some time initially working with Hall prior to his departure.
Jeffries currently serves as CEO of the Rochester Broadway Theater League. He owned and operated Dollinger Travel Inc. from 1985 to 1999.

ReviewsThe two operators arrived on the agreed day, a little late admittedly but that was understandable as they had traveled from Manchester to my home in rural Lincolnshire at the start of the evening rush hour. The actual work took about two hours, be prepared for the noise of the large generator it was very loud. After the work was completed I was encouraged to inspect what had been done and everything explained clearly. All in all a very clean and tidy job absolutely no complsints/Derek WilesThe weather was terrible and the snow arrived. The two men worked against the odds! In the end they had no option but to down tools. Once the weather easy and work could resume, they were back. Our home is much warmer. Pleased with the resultSuzanne HopperWe were kept informed of progress, times and dates of installation. The crew arrive ready to work and fully explained everything. They were quick, clean and polite at all times. They left after cleaning up thoroughly.The effect is that the house seems warm without the central working so hard although the weather has not been bad and it has not yet had a chance to prove itself.So far I would definitely recommend it for others to installP.A.BristowPeter BristowThe guys arrived early and proceed to lay a protective covering up the stairs. They were very polite and worked non stop. The guys cleaned and hovered after they had finished and also helped to replace my items back into the loft.MR M GARVEYAfter some considerable time searching for a solution to the hot and cold temperature inside my conservatory, I opted for the home logic insulation and upvc cladding. It was the best choice I have made for some time. From salesman to fitters, all were fantastic and the work is first class. And by the way, in this video weather, I have never known the conservatory to ba ad warm. Best investment in have ever madeCraig RobinsonWe could not fault the excellent service given, and the person who undertook the work was extremely thorough and professional.Mr CharlesI first became aware of ICYNENE watching Grand Design on TV,The Homelogic consultant was on time and gave an excellent presentation of the product. My loft area needed some attention so two days after checking feasibility I ordered Icynene to be installed in my loft.Again the two fitters were on time and worked non stop, a credit to the company.CONCLUSION: I moved my Dual Fuel energy account from one of the Big Six two years ago and I moved to Home Logic two months ago.I am looking to a two year payback together with halving my energy billMy house is much warmer including having a nice neat loft.I am very impressed.Alan ParkerForm the initial visit from the engineer who was honest and reliable to the fitters who sprayed the roof. Your service was brilliantMr Ivan PhairSince have long the loft insulation installed it has reduced ourate utility bills for heating. The loft is much warmed and the whole house retains heat. it is also cooler in the summer, rather than stuffy upstairs.Laura WarehamQuick and efficient installation. Left the house looking as clean as when they arrived.G PeacockI was quite sceptical that the spraying of foam in the roof would actually improve the warmth of the house. Just how wrong can you be? Since its installation in January 17, I have noticed that the upstairs of the house is really warm compared to downstairs, at present I still have not closed the loft hatch so any cold or draughts in the loft void would certainly suck the heat out of the property. The job itself was done very quickly and with no mess left behind. I did opt for the lifting of the current loft insulation (which I would have to dispose of), but after talking to the installers, left it down, (like Tesco, every little helps). I cant say that my bills have gone down as it is still too soon, but it sure has made a difference to the overall temperature upstairs. Some remedial repairs to the felt had to be done before the spraying took place. It took approximately 3 hours from start to finish to complete the whole job. There is a slight aroma given off by the application of the foam, but that disappears within a day or two. It is not a cheap upgrade to your house, but it certainly makes it far warmer and seems to have eliminated draughts and cold spots.DavidThe men that came to do the job were very polite and did a very good job we were very pleased highly recomendedMr BaldwinWe had the Icynene foam insulation applied around November by Home Logic. The service from them has been great - from initial quotation through to installation and after-care. The insulation itself is also excellent. We live in an unconventional construction - single-skin steel-framed concrete pre-fab, which had the standard insulation on the floor of the loft. The house was always pretty cold and would feel, within minutes of the heating going off, like there was never any heating on. We have noticed a great difference in the general warmth of the house and especially in how it retains it's heat (even with single-skin walls, therefore no cavity wall insulation). A great product - would recommend it, and Home Logic, to anyone!CaroleHomelogic have certainly made our house warmer and our roof space cleaner.John MarlowVery pleased with the work, and made very little mess.very friendly men who did the job.Anita Finch
