  Jonathan Clark of the University of Kansas argued that the idea of the West emerged in the late 1940s as an intellectual justification for American engagement in Europe during the Cold War.Only gradually did it provide a concept for organizing history that connected the United States and Europe as part of a shared culture that faced Soviet totalitarianism.Geography did not impose a natural East-West division, and Clark noted that culture and climate both tended instead to support a North-South division.The challenge from Wilhelmine and Nazi Germany, followed by the Cold War imposed a political dichotomy that distinguished Western states from those under Soviet control to their east.The idea of the West provided an intellectual framework for the Atlantic alliance, and while it dominated American culture up through the 1960s, Clark argued that multiculturalism progressively distanced the United States from the culture of Western Europe.

  John O'Sullivan, editor of the National Interest, noted that Clark approached the question from an Anglo-American perspective while Mahoney adopted a French viewpoint.

  Jonathan Clark, a British historian teaching in America, analyzes the peculiar, even exceptional, definition of liberty in colonial and revolutionary America, which was very much a product of the religious conflicts and theological disputes that were so prevalent in Britain and the British colonies in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.The particular concept of liberty that prevailed in the United States after the Revolution was grounded in a particular version of Protestantism-one that was fundamentalist and evangelical.Clark concludes with the important, and controversial, assertion that the fundamentalist and evangelical concept of liberty has continued to drive U.S. foreign policy, especially the policy of the Bush administration.
  ...
  Hodge's approving portrayal of an American empire greatly contrasts, therefore, with the account given by Clark, who sees the contemporary U.S. drive toward empire as the natural outgrowth of America's fundamentalist and evangelical ideas, rather than of its economic and security interests.

  Nathan Clark, an industrial design student at The University of Kansas, invented Talos, a hand-protection device for people who are slicing food.He won second place in a national competition and is working to get his invention licensed and manufactured.
  ...
  Nathan Clark, a junior majoring in industrial design, was tired of slicing his fingers when preparing fruits or vegetables.After cutting his fingers several times, Clark designed a device -- Talos -- to protect his hands.
  
  "I'm missing most of a fingerprint on my index finger," said Clark, who graduated from Topeka's Cair Paravel-Latin School."I cut it off.That's why I designed Talos."
  
  Talos is a flexible device that fits over the thumb and index finger.The device provides a cutting surface so one's fingers don't get cut during food preparation.
  
  ...
  "It's designed mostly for klutzes like me," Clark said.
  
  He plans to make a smaller design for children who want to help in the kitchen.

  ...
  Clark invented Talos for an industrial design class last semester.Students were given assignments to design or redesign different devices.
  
  Eight weeks into the semester, Clark realized that one of his designs wasn't working out.He had a few weeks to come up with another -- and Talos began to take shape.He sketched the design, then made a paper model.
  
  The next step was market and user research.He made a usable plastic model to demonstrate his idea.
  
  "Everybody I talked to liked it," Clark said."People already have the cutting board.They already have the knives, and they buy the fruit every day.This would be a $2 addition to the knife set that would keep them substantially safer."
  
  Last semester, Clark entered Talos into a competition with the International Housewares Association.Talos took second out of more than 200 entries, netting Clark $1,500 and an all-expense-paid trip to show his design to the public and potential buyers at the International Housewares Show in Chicago in mid-January.

  "At the show, everyone wanted to cut something up," Clark said."I think I went through more than a dozen oranges.A lot of people who had experience in the kitchen were excited, and they were showing me battle wounds."
  
  Clark received suggestions from people who wanted him to modify his invention to specific industries.
  
  "Everyone thought it should be changed and adapted, so it could work for them," he said.
  
  Clark's invention is in the early stages of development.He is getting Talos licensed and manufactured, so he can sell it.Talos is under a provisional patent, which protects Clark against someone copying it.
  
  Inquisitive mind
  
  Clark long has been interested in inventing things and putting things together.
  
  ...
  During his free time, Nathan Clark enjoys spending his time with the Christian Campus Ministry.
  
  "We draw the community in and build a strong infrastructure," he said, "and then go to the schools and talk to the kids and try to bring them into the ministry."
  
  Clark also enjoys spending time with friends.
  
  "I enjoy having conversations with people and building relationships," Clark said."I just like to have a good time."
  
  Clark plans to graduate from KU in December and expects to have many career choices.
  
  "Industrial design covers everything from Web design to interface down to how do you make the next food dehydrator," he said.
  
  ...
  Clark eventually would like to spend his life in missions.Recently, Clark went to Galiona, Mexico, to help build houses for the poor.
  
  "I'm really passionate about that," Clark said.
  
  Clark doesn't have any new inventions in the works but is working on several projects in an industrial design class.
  
  "Right now, the project is to redesign the lollipop," Clark said."If the lollipop idea goes over well, I may contact Wonka."
