The three-day Arab summit
meeting in Amman ended last
Wednesday in a clear-cut
political victory for its host,
King Hussein of Jordan.
The Hashemite monarch,
who has never been accused of
audacity in expressing
moderate views among his
peers, this time placed on the
table his plans for an interna-
tional peace conference as an
instrumentality for negotia-
tions with Israel.
And he won endorsement for
it, even the grudging approval
of President Hafez Assad of
Syria, long a bitter foe of any
approach to peace with Israel
and until recently one of Hus-
sein's severest critics.
The king was able to claim at
the end of the summit that it
had brought to the Arabs unity
of "word, stand and goal." In-
deed, the participants ex-
hibited a skill rare in inter-
Arab diplomacy of burying, or
at least white-washing, their
traditional differences. Even
such arch'-enemies as Assad
and President Saddarn Hus-
sein of Iraq exchanged smiles.
Observers may have
wondered beforehand why
Hussein, ruler of a desert
kingdom with serious
economic difficulties, took the
risk of holding a summit that
may well have been a dismal
failure, and of raising such
delicate issues as an interna-
tional peace conference. Had
the gambit failed, his ability
for diplomatic maneuvering
would have been greatly
The answer apparently lies
in the timing. The participants

countries attended were

The stream of anguished let-
ters, telegrams and telephone
calls pours in every day from
all over the world. Some days,
there are as few as ten; other
days, as many as 140. Each is a
desperate cry for help from an
AIDS victim in search of a
Some do not bother to write
or call. They simply take the
first available flight to Israel
and turn up at Kaplan Hospital
or the Rokacn-Hadassah
Mtedical Center in Tel Aviv.
"Some are terminal cases,
most are in an advanced stage
of the disease," says Dr.
Yehuda Skornik, of Rokach-
Hadassah. "We have patients
from almost every continent
from Europe, from the United
States and Canada, from
South Africa. And more are
arriving every week."
These life-seekers have
heard from others, or via the
gay press and AIDS informa-
tion networks, of a new, ex-
perimental but highly promis-
ing AIDS treatment called
AL-721, which was developed
at the Weizmann Institute in
Rehovot and which is now be-
ing tested at Kaplan Hospital
and Rokach-Hadassah Medical

All the Israeli doctors ask is
that patients remain under
close medical supervision and
send them regular clinical
reports for evaluation.
But the efficacy of this total-
ly natural, non-toxic, seeming-
ly simple nutrient is sufficient-
ly dramatic to have generated
a firestorm of hope among peo-
ple who had lost all hope.
Of the 60 AIDS victims who
have been treated with AL-721

decrease in the "rigidity" of
cell membranes, which is a
system of the aging of cells.
The AIDS connection came
from a study conducted ten
years ago at the University of
Virginia, where researchers
found that certain viruses need
a high level of cell cholesterol
in order to be infective. The
AIDS (or HIV) virus is one of
"Once we realized that,"
says Professor Shinitzky, "we
decided to concentrate all our
efforts on developing a treat-
ment that would reduce the
cell cholesterol level in AIDS
The initial results were pro-
mising and, inevitably, a world
frantic for a means of dealing
with a threatened AIDS
epidemic seized on the "Israeli
eSS ylk treatment." The
stampede of patients began
soon after.
But Professor Shinitzky and
his medical colleagues are
determined that they will not
be stampeded. They cannot

their treatment for the simple
reason that supplies of AL-721
which are produced at the
Weizmann Institute are
limited, and Israeli patients
come first.
Moreover, supplies will re-
to another.
But AL-721 is not "and
please, please be emphatic
about this," says Dr. Skornik,
a cure for AIDS, "there is,
as yet, no cure for AIDS and it
would be wicked and irrespon-
sible to claim otherwise."
Dr. Skornik and his col-
leagues, however, readily con-
cede that AL-721 may prove to
be an important breakthrough
in the desperate search for an
effective AIDS treatment.
But the Israeli doctors see
their own work as just one part
of an enormous, fiendishly dif-
ficult jigsaw puzzle.
While the Israeli treatment
reduces the ability of the AIDS
virus to spread, other resear-
chers can now concentrate on
tackling the problem of reviv-
ing the patient's devastated
immune system in order to
combat the myriad ailments
which typically ravage an
AIDS victim.
"It is the same story with all
these dreadful diseases," says
Professor Meir Shinitzky, who
discovered and developed
AL-721 at his Department for
Membrane Research at the
Weizmann Institute. "There is
no single, magic bullet. The
cure, when it comes, will be a
team effort.
"We are encouraged by the
results we have achieved so
far," he says, "but we have to
test it on many more patients
before we can evaluate it effec-
tively. I would guess that a
cure, and a vaccination, for
AIDS is still three to ten years

'Mea Culpa' Over Waldheim Nomination
Former Chancellor Bruno
Kreisky of Austria has admit-
ted he erred when he proposed
Kurt Waldheim for the office
of United Nations secretary
general in the early 1970s.
The World Jewish Congress
reports that Kreisky told a
packed lecture audience at a
Vienna concert hall that he
had failed to gather detailed
information about Waldheim's
Nazi past.
Kreisky, a leader of the
Austrian Socialist Party and a
non-practicing Jew, served as
chancellor from 1970-83.
Waldheim was elected presi-
dent of Austria in July 1986,
having served as UN secretary
general from 1972-82.
He hinted that the United
States and the Soviet Union,
which both supported
Waldheim for secretary
general, knew more about his
past than he had.

AIDS In Israel
The great AIDS panic that has swept through most of the
world has not yet reached Israel. But it is probably on the
So far 40 cases of AIDS have been diagnosed in Israel
and 33 of these victims have died. A further 239 people
have been diagnosed as carriers of AIDS antibodies.
The Israel Health Ministry recently set up a committee to
prevent the spread of AIDS. Among the suggestions so far
are that volunteers from abroad coming to work on kibbut-
zim should be screened for AIDS, as should army con-
scripts and pregnant women.
In swinging Tel Aviv, where AIDS consciousness is
higher than other parts of the country, public health of-
ficials have opened an information hotline and are now
preparing literature and lectures on the subject for local
Haviva Avi-Guy, who holds the city council's public
health portfolio, recently suggested that condom
dispensers be installed in the restrooms of all cafes and
other entertainment spots in the city (condom sales in
Israel doubled from 400,000 packages in 1985 to 800,000
last year, and are expected to double agun in 1987).
Avi-Guy's suggestion, however, has so far been stymied
by fierce opposition from three religious council members,
who consider that such a move would represent an endorse-
ment of pre-marital sex and immorality. They also point
out the continued rabbinical ban on the use of condoms.
The council is meanwhile working on a plan to provide
regular AIDS screening for Tel Aviv's 400 known male and
female prostitutes.
According to a 1986 survey of 70 prostitutes who "work"
the city's Tel Baruch beach area, 5 percent of the women
and 20 percent of the men were found to be AIDS carriers
statistics similar to those found in Los Angeles and San
Dr. Donald Silverberg, head of Tel Aviv's Public Health
Department, says only a small percentage of AIDS victims
in Israel are known to have become infected as a result of
drug use.
But this figure, he fears, will grow, creating a major pro-
blem, if AIDS-infected addicts turn to prostitution to sup-
port their drug habit.
A proposed AIDS clinic, however, has raised hackles all
over the city. One proposed site was mysteriously burned
down and neighborhood residents have given loud and clear
expression to their opposition.
Israel's religious community has also shown a growing
concern about the possible spread of AIDS among the
observant. .

AIDS Activism in America
By PHIL JACOBS
The drugs that have been
manufactured to relieve the
symptoms and pain associated
with the dreaded disease AIDS
come with names such as AZT,
AL-721, DNCB, lentinan,
aerosol pentamidine, fu zheng,
coenzyme Q BHT, naltrexone
and nbavirin.
And while they all have suc-
cess and failure stories attach-
ed to their treatment records,
one thing seems certain; these
drugs are the focus of a wide
range of emotions, not the
least of which are skepticism,
desperation, hope and
"People who have AIDS will
grasp at any straw," said one
Jewish homosexual. "Even if
the supposed cure has not been
perfected. I don't know of any
person who wouldn't be willing
to try something new.
"I know half a dozen gay
people who would be willing to
go anywhere and do anything.
They know their lives are
hanging by a string, and if
they know that the string can
be strenthened to a rope to
hang on to, they'll try just
about anything.
"Also people with AIDS are
usually perfectly willing to be
experiments. They have, of
course, self-saving purposes in
mind, looking for anything
that will help them, whatever
the treatment is. Yes, there is
skepticism, but it's overridden
to try anything at any cost."
According to a San
Francisco-based publication
called AIDS Treatment News,
the great frustration over
AL-721 is that the FDA hasn't
approved it for use yet in this
country, even though it is be-
ing used in Israel. It's no
secret that many gay
Americans have made the trip
to Israel and that many gays in
this country have obtained and
used the drug. Indeed, in one
of its issues, the newsletter re-
counted a story of a gay man
who near death, visited Israel
and returned to the U.S.

Florida Religious School Students
Participating In Poster Contest
Sponsored by
International Kosher Foods and Jewish Life Expo
Students from Florida's religious schools are being given
the opportunity to enter a special poster contest sponsored
by the International Kosher Foods and Jewish Life Expo.
According to Irving I. Silverman, Expo Director and
president of Nancy Neale Enterprises, the contest, named
"Foods and Themes from the Bible" is an excellent way for
youngsters to express their Jewish heritage.
The Expo, being held at the Miami Beach Convention
Center December 4-7, is a total immersion in Jewish life
and culture, and Silverman wants the children, as well as
their parents and teachers, to join together at the Miami
Beach Convention Center to bask in the Yiddishkeit.
"They'll be tasting delicious and different kosher foods,
listening to all kinds of Jewish music, seeing Jewish books
and toys and games. The Expo is the total Jewish learning
experience. It's a wonderful way for youngsters to
demonstrate what they've learnt in class" Silverman says.
An entire section of the show is being set aside to display
kosher foods and Jewish life products from around the
world. Companies from Israel, France, Germany and Den-
mark are scheduled to participate.
Feldheim Publishing and Nefesh Ami have donated
prizes to be awarded to religious schools atended by winn-
ing contestants. The contest is open to students in two
separate categories: 7 to 10 and 11 to 18.
Rabbi Sol Schiff, Executive Vice President of the Rab-
binical Association of Greater Miami says "... At a time
when our young people are looking for excitement in
philosophies alien to Judaism, the Expo will give them an
opportunity to see for themselves the rich selection of
Jewish culture."
For further information regarding the contest, please

Expo, 4400 North Federal Highway, Suite 210-13, Boca
Raton, Florida 33431. You can telephone the Expo toll-free

Presidential Visit Makes Points
By DAVID FRIEDMAN

first state visit by a president
of Israel to the United States
by reciting the traditional
Jewish prayer of
"shehecheyanu" at a White
House ceremony preceding his
hour-long meeting with Presi-

Ridgway, assistant secretary
of state for Europe and
Canada; Rep. Dante Fascell
(D., Fla.), chairman of the
House Foreign Affairs Com-
mittee; and Sen. Daniel
Moynihan (D., N.Y.).
Theodore Ellenoff, AJCom-
mittee president, said the of-
ficials were highly supportive
of the mobilization plans, and
indicated that the demonstra-
tion should not be "modest."
Fascell showed strong interest
in attending, stating "his pas-
sionate belief in human liber-
ties," Ellenoff said.
The rally, to be held from 1
p.m. to 4 p.m. that Sunday,
will call on the Soviets to per-
mit the emigration of all Jews
who seek it, and to allow those
that want to remain in the
Soviet Union to practice their
religion without reprisal, he

"At this moment as I stand
here as the president of a coun-
try born of the prayers of a na-
tion over the centuries and a
2,000-year-old struggle
against adversity, and view
this event in true perspective
against the background of our
long history, I cannot but give
expression to the age-old
Jewish prayer," he said.
Herzog then recited in
Hebrew and English, "thanks
to the Almighty for having
kept us alive and maintained
us to reach this time."
The ceremony was held in
the East Room of the White
House because the heavy rain
here precluded the traditional
South Lawn welcome for
foreign heads of state.
Reagan also noted the
"historic" occasion, pointing
out that Israel was observing
its 40th anniversary and
reminding the audience that
the United States was the first
country to extend it diplomatic
Both presidents pointed out
that this occasion coincided
with the anniversary of
Kristallnacht, on Nov. 9 and
10, 1938, when Jewish
synagogues, schools, homes
and stores were attacked by
the Nazis in Germany. Reagan
also spoke of the "obscene"
resolution equating Zionism
with racism adopted by the
United Nations General
Assembly on Nov. 10, 1975.
Reagan observed that in
1938, there was no Israel to
protect Jewish interests, but in
1975, Israel and the Jewish
people were defended at the
United Nations by Herzog,
then its ambassador there, as
well as by the United States

was Daniel Patrick Moynihan,

to rescind the "Zionism is
racism" resolution. A similar
resolution was adopted in

Israeli Coup
By HUGH ORGEL
There now appears to be little
substance to claims made last
weekend by the Abu Nidal ter-
rorist group that it had seized
an "Israeli yacht" off the coast
of the Gaza Strip and captured
eight "Israeli passengers
holding dual nationality."
Belgian authorities have
confirmed that five of the
passengers are Belgian
citizens residing in France who
are Catholic, not Jewish. They
were identified as Emmanuel
Houtekins, 42; his wife,
Godelieve Kets; their children,
Laurent, 17, and Valerie, 16;
and Emmanuel's brother, Fer-
nand, 40.
The French government is
reportedly trying to obtain in-
formation as to the fate of Fer-
nanda girlfriend, Jacqueline
Valente, 29, and her two
children, Marie-Laure, 6, and
Virginie, 4. Valente's mother,
Brigitte, has denied in France
that her daughter is Jewish.
Meanwhile, Israeli naval
sources say the yacht may
have been seized many miles
possibly 100 or more from
the Israeli coast, perhaps as
far away as Libya.
The International Commit-

Beach-Bred Professor 'Rewrites' Bible
By ALISA KWITNEY
Jewiah Floridian Staff Writer
IF THE BEST detectives
are the ones who can figure
out 'whodunit' from clues
which have been present all
along, then Biblical scholar
Richard Elliot Friedman, who
has recently written the book,
"Who Wrote The Bible?" may
be one of the best detectives of
all time.
Friedman, a professor of
Hebrew and Comparative
Literature at the University of
California at San Diego, has
re-examined the Bible, which,
according to Jewish tradition
was written by Moses, and, ac-
cording to popular scholarly
theory, was written and edited
by some four different sources.
Scholars have long pointed
to clues in the Bible which sug-
gest an author other than
Moses descriptions of
events which Moses could not
have described, such as his
death, the presence of
"doublets," or two different
versions of the same story, as
in the beginning of Genesis,
and the use of different names
for God in the different
Other scholars have
restricted themselves to
postulating a writer in ancient
Israel, (the 'E' author, who
calls God 'Elohim'), a writer in
Judah, (the author of the 'J'
document, which refers to God
as 'Jehovah') a 'P' or Priestly
author and a fourth author for
the book of Deuteronomy.
Friedman has gone further.
In a telephone interview from
his California office, Friedman
says he used "a mixture of ar-
chitectural, archaeological,
biblical and Talmudic
sources," along with the
writings of the Jewish
historian Josephus, who wrote
at the time of the second Tem-
ple. Friedman has suggested
two names, one for the author
of Deuteronomy and what is
known as the Deuteronomic
history (the books of Joshua,
Judges, Samuel 1 and 2 and
Kings 1 and 2) and one for the
redactor or editor who put the
Bible together into the form
we know it today.
"The prophet Jeremiah or
his scribe, Baruch Ben
Neriyah, one or the other is
editor and part author of seven
books of the Bible," says
Friedman, basing his theory in
part on the similarity of
language in the book of
Jeremiah and in Deuteronomy.
"DEUTERONOMY was
produced in two editions, the
first in Jerusalem at the time
of king Josiah and the second
in Egypt shortly after the time
of the exile. My research leads
me to believe that it was the
same person, and here
Jeremiah was in Jerusalem at
the time of Josiah and in
Egypt during the time of ex-
ile/' Friedman explains.
Jeremiah's "family
pedigree" as a descendant of
the priesthood "indicates he
had access to the sacred texts"
of Israel's history, which he
assembled together and
edited, according to Friedman.
While other biblical scholars
have conjectured that a
Deuteronomic historian or
school of historians assembled
the texts, no one has ventured
to name an individual as the
actual author and editor
"If it wasn't Jeremiah, it had
to be someone living at the
same time, in the same place,
writing in the same style and
agreeing with him on
everything," Friedman
Such a person might be
Baruch Ben Neriyah,
Jeremiah's scribe, who left
behind him one of the Bible's
most tangible clues as to
authorship a clay stamp
reading "belonging to Baruch
Ben Neriyah the Scribe" in an-
cient Hebrew lettering.
"We may be looking at the
signature of one of the authors
of the Bible, Friedman asserts.
"It's an extraordinary thing
like finding 'Moses Loves Zip-
porah' carved in a tree."
Even more extraordinary,
perhaps, is Friedman's asser-
tion that he may have pin-
pointed the person who took
various writings of the 'J
and 'E' authors.and wove
them together with the 'P'
document to produce the Bible
as we know it today.
"Ezra is the editor of the
Torah, the person who put it
all together," contends

"In the books of Ezra and
Nehemiah it is written that
Ezra shows up in Babylon with
a book, holds a big assembly at
the water gate, and reads the
Torah to the people, who hear
things they have never heard
before," recounts Friedman,
who dates this event at around
"It is clear from the text
that what he read were the
five books of Moses, basically
what you and I have now. This
is the first time that it is made
clear that they have the whole

CALLING EZRA "the
fashioner of the Torah," Fried-
man says that his was "one of
the great literary
achievements of all time."
What makes Ezra's achieve-
ment also one of the most
ironic of all time, according to
Friedman, is that he combined
"two books meant to be alter-
natives to each other, and sew-
ed them together so brilliantly
that everyone accepted it for
2,000 years. We're only now
figuring out what he did."
The 'P' or priestly docu-
ment, he explains, was written
as an alternative to other
writings which often depicted
Moses' brother Aaron, from
whom the priesthood claimed
descent, in an unflattering
Another assertion which
Friedman makes in his book is
that the priestly writings, long
thought to have been written
during the time of the second
temple, actually may have
been authored "hundreds of
years earlier than that. The
priestly material must have
been written during the time

ment on the theory that the
tabernacle mentioned in the
Bible existed and was housed
in the first temple, as seems to
be implied by the priestly
writings. The tabernacle was
destroyed when the temple
was burnt down.
"You wouldn't write 'Wor-
ship only at the tabernacle' if it
had already been destroyed,"
Friedman contends, pointing
to the fact that the priestly
writings often refer to the
Other evidence which sug-
gests the impossibility of
Moses having personally writ-
ten the five books ascribed to
him. Friedman says the fact
that Moses, who lived around
the 13th century BCE almost
certainly spoke and wrote a
different Hebrew from the 7th
century BCE Hebrew in which
the books are written supports
his thesis.
LINGUISTIC analysis over
the past 15 years has made
such deductions possible,
although Friedman admits
that "we know nothing about
Moses' Hebrew. But even if I
never saw a page of
Shakespeare, I would know he
never said 'Far out, man
totally,' which is 20th Century
California English,' says the
Miami Beach-bred Friedman.
Friedman, who has been
likened to a detective unravel-
ing a mystery by many book
reviewers, once studied to
become a rabbi.
"I studied in the Conser-
vatie Rabbinical Seminary for
three years," he reveals. "I
considered becoming a rabbi."
"I was drawn to scholarship
though, and that was 1971
precisely the period that
Judaic Studies was growing up
(as a discipline) in colleges all
over this country."
Of his decision to choose a
more secular form of biblical
scholarship, Friedman says
simply that he "had an option.
Before, if you had intellectual
Judaic interests, you became a
The man who once con-
sidered the rabbinate has more
than a detective's appreciation
of the mystery of who wrote
the Bible.
"For a time, most biblical
scholars have been just taking
the Bible apart, and that's why
there is a lot of criticism of
Biblical scholarship," he
"But what's important now
is that we're at the point
where we can put it all
together, where we're not
reading 'J' or T.' but we re
reading the Bible."
YET READING the Bible
will never be the same, says
Friedman, for now "we have
this added awareness of how
we come to it, a real apprecia-
tion of the complexity of the
events which came to produce
this book. It's like reading the
Bible in a poorly lit room and
then someone turns the lights
Friedman speaks with en-
thusiasm of the "richness" of
the text "written by over 100
authors." but some may argue
that proof that Moses did not
write the Bible is proof that
destroys not only the book's
mystery, but also some of its
power to inspire.
Asked if finding out that
Moses did not write the Bible
and discovering who may have
been the text's actual authors
and editors is like finding out
how a magician does his trick
Friedman replies that "it
hasn't had that effect on me."
"People who have read the
book and written me have ac-
tually expressed how it enrich-
ed the experience. The Bible
has always existed in an unreal
world that's why biblical
films always are so bad."
FRIEDMAN'S book, which
supplies political and
sociological background for
the possible authors of the Bi-
ble, dispells some of that sense
of unreality.
But it does not necessarily
have to dispell faith in the
nature of the Bible as a sacred
text, he insists.
"I'm not denying that the Bi-
ble is from God. Many people
seem to think that to say the
five books of Moses were not
by Moses is to say that they
were not revealed or inspired
by God," Friedman reveals.
"But a Biblical scholar sheds
no light on that at all. That's a
matter of faith. You can con-
tinue to believe that the five
books of Moses are from God
what you cannot believe is
that they were from Moses."

Egypt did not attend the

In that context, the interna-
tional peace conference was a
far less urgent matter. The
Israel government remains
sharply divided on the issue.
Moreover, Hussein was forced
to agree that the Palestine

participate, which, makes the

Reform Movement Faces AIDS
By BEN GALLOB
The Union of American
Hebrew Congregations
(UAHC), the association of
American Reform congrega-
tions, has prepared and
distributed the manual "Con-
fronting the AIDS Crisis" to
all 1,100 American Reform
rabbis and to individuals who
have asked for copies.
According to Albert
Vorspan, UAHC senior vice
president, "the AIDS disaster,
with its mounting list of vic-
tims and its climate of
hysteria, has generated an at-
mosphere of despair"
Vorspan reported in the fall
1986 issue of Reform Judaism,
that UAHC had responded by
organizing a Committee on
AIDS, acting on recommenda-
tions bv Rabbi Alexander
Schindler, UAHC president,
and a decision of the 1985
UAHC General Assembly.
Vorspan explained that UAHC
had acted out of determination
"not to yield to despair or
stand idly by while others
Declaring that the move-
ment well understood that it
could not find a cure, create a
vaccine, Vorspan noted that
"we can help to pierce the
darkness of public ignorance,
help combat discrimination
and the cruel misuse of
religion, which suggests AIDS
is divine punishment."
The manual contains 11
items. It outlines current fin-
dings about AIDS? including
that the disease cannot be
transmitted through casual
contact and a recommendation
that condoms be used in all
sexual acts. The suggestion
Cannon Shoots First
Negotiations now taking place in Jerusalem should
finalize a joint film venture between the U.S.S.R. and
Israel, the first of its kind. Russian film director George
Daniela and screenwriter Revez Gabeiadz (neither of them
Jewish) have met Cannon film magnate, Menahem Golan,
to discuss making a comedy with a Jewish subject. If suc-
cessful, shooting will begin next year, first in the U.S.S.R.
and then in Israel.
Nowhere To Go
Approximately 6,000 pre-school age children in the
Jerusalem area will have nowhere to go this year, despite
being registered for Na'amat (Histadrut women's
organization) day care centers. Na'amat cannot accept
these children through lack of buildings and other facilities
Na'amat Secretary-General Masha Lubelsky, has demand-
ed that the government build additional centers. Other-
wise, she warns, working mothers will be forced to leave
their jobs.

In its survey, the AIDS
Treatment News reported that
110 respondents indicated that
they had used AL-721, and
that about 50 percent found
the treatment helpful while 15
Eercent indicated it was not
elpful and 35 percent said
they were uncertain.
"My thinking is that people
are mostly skeptical about any
new treatment," said John
James, publisher of AIDS
Treatment News. "They really
aren't as eager as you might
think to go out and try
something new. Of course if
they're within a few days of
death, they'll try anything.
But most people with AIDS
are healthy enough in the early
stages to begin studying and
doing their own research on
what's best for them. And I
find that generally people are
very skeptical."
"My thinking in general is
that the federal government is
still extremely remiss," said
Daniel Najjar, founder of the
National Jewish AIDS Project.
"They should be testing as
many drugs as possible. They
should be rushing new
treatments in through the
system. AL-721 is just an ex-
ample of how slowed up and
backed up their system is.
"New medications get
reported through the AIDS
grapevine very quickly," Naj-
jar continued. "AIDS activists
have been pleading with the
federal government to put into
trial anything they can. There
is absolutely no excuse for
delays except for human
Don Miller, a Baltimore gay
rights activist who was
diagnosed as having AIDS in
1983, said that his partner,
who also has AIDS, is using
the egg derivative to combat
his illness.
"From everything we've
seen so far, it's been good for
him," said Miller, who once
conducted a much publicized
survey to see which area
funeral homes would not ac-
cept people who had died of
Miller, who is receiving
treatment for an AIDS-related
lung problem, said that he
would also consider taking
AL-721 down the line if he
eldon HjeZZI
needed to. But after more than
four years since his diagnosis,
Miller said he's adjusted his at-
titude in an attempt to live
with AIDS instead of die from
"Personally, I've condition-
ed myself to accept any good
treatment that is shown not to
have any bad side effects,"
Miller said. "Sometimes the
side effects are worse than the
disease. I'm at a relatively
healthy level at this point. But
I could see how if a person got
really bad, they might start
grasping for medications. I
really don't like to take
medications to begin with.
"Some people" he con-
tinued, "are diagnosed in one
day and they go crazy. It's like
initial shock and they want to
take every drug that's out
there. For me, it's been more
of a roller coaster. Sometimes
I'm emotional and I don't want
to talk about AIDS anymore,
and other times I'm fighting it
like hell. I'm a little skeptical
about drugs, so I try to avoid

How To Describe Chanukah
To Our Non-Jewish Friends
By RABBI
The Jewish holiday of
Chanukah commemorates
history's struggle for religious
The war took place 165 years
before the time of Jesus. Judea
was then part of a kingdom
which came under the control
of a Greco-Syrian king named
Like Russia today, the
regime permitted its con-
quered people to live but bann-
ed any Kind of worship except
that prescribed by the
monarch. His brand of
paganism called for the wor-
ship of idols, including one of
Every nation under An-
tiochus acquiesced, except
Judea. Enraged, Antiochus
sent his armies agaist
Jerusalem and planted his im-
ages in the holy temple itself.
Against this desecration a
hardy group of rebels arose led
by Mattathias, a Jewish priest
and his five sons who came to
be known as Maccabeans.
For three years the battles
raged. The fighting Jews held
off the mightiest armies on
earth. Although they began
with a handful their forces
grew. Miraculously, the Jews
were victorious! They routed
the enemy and repaired to the
temple where they conducted a
ceremony of rededication.
Chanukah is Hebrew for re-
Ever since, the Jewish peo-
ple have celebratated the holi-
day for eight days. Worship
services and sermons in the
synagogue glorify the idea of
religious liberty, the gift of the
Maccabees to posterity.
In the home and synagogue,
a candelabrum (Hebrew:
menorah) is the centerpiece of
the observance. On the first
night, a candle is lit, amidst
prayers thanking the Almighty
One for inspiring spiritual
heroes to make sacrifices for a
noble cause. On each night
threreafter, an additional light
is kindled. The crescendo of
light symbolizes the enlarge-
ment of forces engaged in a
sacred endeavor.
Chanukah is a gift-giving
holiday. But, as at all Jewish
festivals, gifts are also given to
the poor. Contributions to
charity are a fixture for all
Jewish observances.
Christians might have good
reason to share in the celebra-
tion of Chanukah since the
Maccabees saved the idea of
monotheism which some 160
years later inspired the birth
of a daughter faith,
The Chanukah saga is
recorded in several books of
that post-Biblical literature
known as the Apocrypha. The
Books of the Maccabees
describe in detail the way in
which the weak overcame the
strong. It is a strory which has
been duplicated other times as
well. Witness the triumph of a
handful of colonists under
George Washington against
the British. Witness the in-
credible way a handful of
British aviators held off the
Nazi hordes. Witness the vic-
tories of the modern Macabees
in the resurrected state of
Israel against forces which
outnumbered them 200 to 1.
The story of the Maccabees
(also known as the Hasmo-
neans) has also been cor-
roborated by archeologial
finds. In the tenth chapter of
the Book of John, in the New
Testament we read about
Jesus' observance of
Chanukah, which is also
known as the Feast of Lights.
Christians and Jews will
join, as they observe their
separate holydays, in prayers
that the Holy Land and its en-
virons will at long last enjoy
the blessings of permanent
Chanukah is not a holiday
when Jewish children absent
themselves from school (as
they do on the high Holydays,
Passover, Pentecost and
The first sound of the word,
Chanukah, is the gargling gut-
tural like the "ch" in the Ger-
man, "ich," or the "x," n
Also known as the Festival
of Lights, Chanukah in 1987,
begins Tuesday night, Dec. 15,
in 1988, it begins Friday night,

The Silver Lining
By RABBI
(A Seren Arta Feature)
When Chanukah comes
Don't we ail feel
Fresh admiration
For Maccabean zeal?
When Chanukah comes
More praise is due
To the intrepidity
Of the fighting Jew.
The idea of war
Makes the Jew morose
But with freedom at stake
He can be bellicose.
War? No sensitive Jew
Can really enjoy it;
But for a good cause
He learned to employ it.
Just eighteen hundred
And seventeen years ago
Idolatry was offered,
And the Jews said, "No!"
Could the rebellion
Really thrive?
On one side, legions;
On the other, five.
But those five brothers
With their father, the priest
Inspired others, so
Their numebrs increased.
For three years they fought
In field and in cave;
Religious freedom

To mankind they gave.
Fighting Jews
In our time as well
Have performed miracles.
Witness Israel.
We start with one candle
Till eight are aglow
To symbolize the way
A worthy project can grow.
At first a large force
Faced a littler.
But the good can prevail.
Remember Hitler.
In December Jews
Are enchanted
By Yuletide glitter
Kids wanna be Santa-ed.
Monotheism was saved;
Paganism routed;
In Judea years later
A daughter faith sprouted.
So instead of Jews
Going the Yuletide way
Christians ought to mark
The Jewish holiday.
A holiday provides
An emotional lift.
So light the candles,
Give everyone a gift.
Go to shul,
Sing "Maoz Tzur,"
Spin the dray del,
Help the poor.
Joyously celebrate
The Chanukah feast.
And let's all pray for
Peace in the Mideast.

Sioux Falls Police Plan Saturation Patrols
Extra police officers will be out on the streets of Sioux Falls during the New Year's Eve celebrations.
Captain Greg VandeKamp says 16 extra officers and two additional supervisors will be working from 8pm until 4am, and he says their sole purpose will be to target intoxicated and impaired drivers.
VandeKamp says New Year's Eve is a night when many people celebrate with alcohol, and he says the drinking alone is not the problem.
He says it's excess drinking and then driving that cause the problems, so he says police are encouraging responsible celebration.
VandeKamp says the additional officers will be evenly distributed between the east and west sides of the city, but he says the deployment could be changed, depending on the activity.

Contractors for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers have begun dredging sediment in the Santa Ana River Marsh in Newport Beach — some of which is being piped just offshore for beach replenishment, drawing concerns from residents.
The roughly $5-million project, which will restore channel depths to improve water circulation and tidal flushing necessary for maintaining the 92-acre salt marsh habitat, is expected to be complete by the end of March. The Army Corps project is federally funded.
A temporary pipeline is in place to funnel what officials call "good quality sand" about 1,000 feet offshore. This process, which began Monday and likely will continue until the week of Feb. 25, will help replenish beach sand, according to a city project update.
The pipeline runs parallel to the river from the marsh area, over the beach, through the surf zone and to the approved nearshore disposal location off 60th Street, the update said.
Sediment that is deemed too silty and unsuitable for beach replenishment will be trucked to upland sites.
The marsh area is near the mouth of the Santa Ana River, upstream of West Coast Highway and east of the Greenville-Banning Channel levee.
Army Corps project Biologist Erin Jones said about 25,000 cubic yards of sediment will be pumped offshore to eventually make its way back to the beach. Meanwhile, she said, about 30,000 cubic yards of material will be reused in construction projects upland and another 20,000 cubic yards will be taken to a landfill.
The task was necessary as sediment and runoff have settled and increased stagnation since the marsh was first constructed about 20 years ago, Army Corps and city officials said.
Jones added that as shorelines erode, "That good quality sediment is really hard to come by to replenish the beaches."
But some neighbors echoed concerns that have arisen surrounding past Santa Ana River dredging projects — that the sediment, which could eventually come into contact with beachgoers, is unclean.
"I'm very disturbed.... Two-thirds [of the sediment] is going to be trucked upland and the other one-third is going into the water," beachfront resident Barbara de la Pena said. "Why should even one-third go there? It's like making a cake batter and one out of six eggs has salmonella."
De la Pena added that the Corps didn't adequately notify nearby residents of the work.
Longtime resident Richard Taylor agreed.
"We don't really know who's making the choices on this," he said. "I'm not sure it's had the proper review."
He said his primary worry, though, is about water quality.
"I hope that what we're dredging out there doesn't become a health problem for the humans and animals that play in our water.
Corps officials, however, stressed that any potentially negative effects on water quality — like some turbidity near where the sediment will be piped into the water — will dissipate soon after the work is complete.
For the time being, Jones advised swimmers and surfers near the pipeline to heed lifeguard warnings and "try and relocate."
But, she said, "the second that pipeline is out of the water, you can go over there all you want."
And, as is the case with dredging projects up and down the coast, sediment is tested for chemicals and bacteria according to various agencies' protocols, Jones said in an email.
Those agencies include the Environmental Protection Agency, Regional Water Quality Control Board and the California Coastal Commission, she said.
She added in the email that the Corps complied with the National Environmental Policy Act in distributing information about the project for public review.
An Environmental Assessment was drafted, then circulated for public review from April 18 to May 18, 2012, she wrote. A public meeting was held at Newport's city hall April 30.
"The concerns raised by local residents that attended the meeting were considered and portions of the [Environmental Assessment] were revised to accommodate those concerns."
Above all, Jones said, "I would like to emphasize that while this is a construction project, the purpose of this project is to restore endangered species habitat," Jones said. "That's the reason we're doing this — it's not a typical construction project."

Students from three area high schools will participate this year in a statewide engineering competition.
Students from three area high schools will participate this year in a statewide engineering competition.
Lt. Governor Kay Ivey announced that Alabama, in its second year of involvement in the Real World Design Challenge, a national aerospace engineering and design competition, leads all states with 50 teams registered to compete.
Groups from the Cherokee County Career & Technology Center in Centre and Cedar Bluff High School, along with two teams from Fort Payne High School, which won the 2012 competition, will participate.
The teams, from 32 Alabama high schools and the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, will compete in an aviation challenge or a new surface challenge category added this year.
"The goal of the Real World Design Challenge is to increase student interest and participation in math and science," Ivey said in a press release.
"I am thrilled to see the level of participation in the competition this year. This type of hands-on, real-world experience is invaluable to our students and for preparing our future workforce."
The teams, made up of three to seven students, must conceptualize and design a small, unmanned aircraft system or design and evaluate efficiency improvements for a baseline tractor trailer.
The students also must develop a business plan in support of commercial applications.
The state winners will be announced Feb. 5-8. State champions win an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C., to compete in the national finals in April.
Every participating team receives $1 million in professional engineering software, along with training, curriculum materials and access to mentors.
Alabama's Real World Design Challenge is a partnership of Ivey's office and the Alabama Mathematics, Science, Technology and Engineering Coalition for Education.

SO8896 : Highfield Court
taken 12 years ago, near to Lower Penn, Staffordshire, Great Britain
Council Housing in Wolverhampton - 1960s :: SO9196
Central Government subsidies ensured that the 1960s became the decade of the high rise flat. Demand for one bed properties had grown through the 1950s and led to a decision to pursue a policy of building flats within the borough.
Major flat building projects were undertaken at Merry Hill(1967), Blakenhall and Heath Town. Smaller scale developments took place at Russell Street, Whitmore Reans, Vauxhall(1963), Boscobel and Chetton Green(1964)Estates. The Vauxhall, Boscobel and Chetton Green Estates received Civic Trust Awards.
In the neighbouring UDC in Wednesfield three nine storey blocks were built on the Lakeview Estate in 1962 and three twenty storey blocks were constructed between 1964 and 1970. Similar developments took place in Bilston prior to 1966.
The flat building programme was relatively short lived and was dealt a blow by the Ronan Point Explosion in 1968.
Council reorganisation in 1966 saw the neighbouring UDCs of Wednesfield, Bilston and Tettenhall incorporated into the Borough.

What the hell is wrong with you?
I'm talking to you. The writers who are still thoughtlessly defending legacy publishing.
Unless you're making over a million dollars a year with the Big 6, continuing down the legacy path is a crazy bad idea.
I see the same tired, lame arguments, over and over again. They include:
It's hard to make decent money self-pubbing.
Guess what? It's even harder to make decent money by legacy publishing. Legacy publishing requires a lot of waiting, and a lot of luck. If you're lucky enough to get an agent AND lucky enough to sell the book AND lucky enough that the publisher doesn't screw it up, you'll have a 1 out of 10 chance at earning out your advance. Maybe.
With self-pubbing, you WILL earn money. It may not be a lot at first, but ebooks are forever, and forever is a long time to accrue sales.
Only Joe Konrath and Amanda Hocking make good money self-pubbing.
First of all, anyone who spouts this nonsense is a lazy researcher, because it's a simple Google search to find dozens of authors making good money.
Second of all, this statement could just as well be: Only Stephen King and James Patterson make good money legacy publishing.
If you had to take a shot to try to emulate my career, or try to emulate Stephen King's career, you have a much higher likelihood of success by doing it my way.
The majority of self-pubbed books don't sell many copies.
Neither do the majority of legacy published books.
Here's the simple math. If your book sucks, you'll never get a legacy deal, but you'll sell at least a few copies by self-pubbing.
If your book is awesome, you'll be giving up 70% royalties for 14.9% royalties.
Either way, you make more going indie.
Publishers are essential.
No, they're not. Editing and good covers are essential, and these can be procured for set costs. They aren't worth the 52.5% a publisher takes, forever.
Print is still dominant.
And the T-Rex was still the apex predator for a short time after the meteor hit. Then they all died.
While ebooks may not be an extinction level event, they will become the most popular way to read books.
The gatekeepers are necessary.
I agree. But I don't call these gatekeepers "agents" or "publishers."
I call them "readers."
With all the self-published crap out there, it will be impossible to find anything good.
There are billions of websites on the internet, the majority of them crap. Yet somehow you managed to find my blog.
We live in a world where it is easy to find things that are interesting to us. That won't ever change.
Publishers know quality. They know what sells.
Sure they do. Which is why Snooki got a big push and bombed, and Trapped was rejected by my publisher and is currently in the Top 100. Which means I owe First Book another $500.
If it gets into the top 20, I'll add another $500 on top of that.
The only way I can be validated as a writer is if I'm accepted by the legacy industry.
This is called Stockholm Syndrome. Sales are a much better, and more realistic, form of validation.
If I self-publish, then agents or editors won't want me.
Lazy research again. Agents and editors are actively looking at self-pub success stories, then snapping those authors and books up.
I'll only try to self-publish once I'm guaranteed it is a better move than legacy publishing.
Thanks for making me laugh by using "guarantee" and "publishing" in the same sentence. When you come back to reality, I hope you figure out that each day you don't self-publish is a day you could have earned money but didn't.
That's the bottom line, gang. Every minute of every day, there are new writers jumping on the self-pub bandwagon, beginning to make money.
Every minute you waste is a minute gone forever.
And forever is a long time.

More Than 900 Minnesotans Hospitalized With Flu
MANKATO (AP) - Health officials say more than 900 people have been hospitalized as the national flu outbreak hits hard in Minnesota.
State Epidemiologist Brad Crier told reporters in Mankato on Wednesday that health officials are struggling to keep up with totals that increase daily. The state has recorded five confirmed flu-related deaths so far.
South-central Minnesota has been particularly hit hard by the flu, with higher numbers than at the height of the H1N1 outbreak in 2009.
More than a dozen Minnesota hospitals have imposed restrictions on visitors to protect patients and staff from the flu.
Mayo Clinic Health System spokesman Kevin Burns says businesses could ease the burden on the clinics and hospitals by relaxing their absentee policies so that employees don't need notes from their providers explaining flu absences.

Looks like you have been on a variety of cool hunts by the pics on your page also. I love hunting the west when I get a chance, a much different style of hunting than home.
Thanks, I live in KS and shot them all there. I hunt mostly eastern KS but there is even better hunting in western KS where all the TV hunters go. There is less timber there outside the creek bottoms which makes for great funnels where there is cover, and lots of open country to hunt in.
Boy... Some Smoker whiteys... What country are you hunting? Vague, I know
