Does One Letter Make a Difference?
How would one letter change that name?
The omission of one letter changes "Orange" to "range." Quite a difference.
How would the omission of one letter from the surname for which you are searching change it? Would the soundex code be the same? Would the name even be pronounced the same? Would the error be easy to find in an index.
Think about one letter being dropped. You might be surprised at the variants you come up with.
How Grandma Said It
It took me forever to find Ulfert Behrens in the 1860 and 1870 census. The problem was partially solved when I learned how he likely pronounced his name. This low-German native probably said his name something like "barns." Here I was thinking it would have been pronounced "Bear unds" (rhyming with roughly with "errands"). Once I started looking for names that sounded like "barns" I found references I had previously overlooked.
Find out how your ancestor likely said his name–you may get variant spellings that you never thought to look for.

This project was set up by a group of alumni from a Masters programme that aims to address the challenges of sustainability, responsibility and social justice.
Jane Boswell
I have been shocked and saddened by the escalating refugee crisis and eager to do something to make a positive difference. As a mum to two young children, I could empathise with the lengths parents would go to to protect their children and give them a better life. Through having done an MSc in Sustainability and Responsibility I joined forces with a group of like-minded people to form the Starfish Project. Professionally, I'm a freelance sustainability consultant with experience in writing & editing, community investment, volunteering, business/charity partnerships, fundraising and environmental programmes. I am also a volunteer youth leader.
Kate Chapman
I am a Mum to two children and have been deeply concerned and moved by the plight of refugees for some time. I did the MSc in Responsibility and Business Practice and was delighted when another graduate of this course put out a call for a group to get together and think of a meaningful way to respond to the current crisis. I work as a freelance sustainability and management consultant – helping organisations to consider how what they do impacts on communities, society and the environment, as well as helping them to improve their own performance. My most memorable job was with London 2012 as part of their sustainability team. I am also a Director of a community owned co-operative which runs a solar farm on the south coast.
Nicole Van den Eijnde
I have a background in international development through working on community development projects in Latin America, as well as an MA in Education and International Development. Since arriving in the UK 14 years ago, I have run local, national and international programmes, training and supporting people to bring about social and environmental change. I am currently Director of Global Generation, an educational charity which involves young people in the creation of integrated communities where people of all ages and circumstances co-create a flourishing future with the planet. All this work has been motivated by social justice and this extends to my involvement with the Starfish Project and our commitment to support those fleeing war and poverty.
Mandy Thatcher
I'm a writer, editor, researcher, events producer – professionally I do a bit of everything! I'm also a Mum and a human being concerned with how fellow human beings made homeless by war and poverty are facing perilous conditions trying to find a new life. I have completed an MSc in Sustainability and Responsibility, which is helping me navigate towards the work I care more deeply about. This is how I came to be involved in the Starfish Project.

Hello all,
I'm creating a tank game using jiglibx, and my tank's shell round is a basic physics capsule.
I'm trying to catch what it impacts, and delete/remove it after the first collision.
Here is my code:
//I've declared this globally
private PhysicObject physObj;
//This is in the spawn function
physicObj.PhysicsSkin.callbackFn += new CollisionCallbackFn(PhysicsSkin_callbackFn);
bool PhysicsSkin_callbackFn(CollisionSkin skin0, CollisionSkin skin1)
DrawSmokeAtHit(skin0.NewPosition); //the place where the tank shell collides.
physicSystem.RemoveBody(physObj.PhysicsBody); //This line causes the error
return true;
However doing this, I get an index was out of range error in the DetectAllCollisions() method in CollisionSystemSAP.cs … specifically in AddToActive(skins_[i], skinTester_);
What is the proper way to remove a physics object so it doesn't stay in memory?

Here pictured with how a tablet can be put to use in our labs she got everyone very focussed in(pun?!). Our afternoon was led by NT ecologist Andy Perry who got us all looking carefully at plantlife almost as small as our water creatures! It was just fascinating to be given such great detail to further everyone's interests in what lives here. A true learning day.

Law Enforcement Officers Honored
Utica, NY (WIBX) - Oneida County District Attorney Scott McNamara has announced the recipients of of the 2010 District Attorney's Law Enforcement Officers of the Year Award.
Rome Police Officer Donald Moore, State Trooper Carlo Gennerio and Oneida County Sheriff's Deputy Michael Burger share the honor.
Moore was off-duty at the AT & T store in New Hartford last May when he shot and killed a gunman who had entered the store and shot an AT & T employee.
Gennerio was the first officer to arrive at the Theall residence in Blossvale in response to a 9-1-1 report of man with a shotgun threatening to kill a baby.
Burger was shot in the ankle while pursusing a suspect in the robbery of the NBT Bank in Rome last July.
McNamara says all three officers demonstrated exceptional bravery, courage and committment to their sworn duty to serve and protect.

Fencing at the 1932 Summer Games: Previous Summer Games ▪ Next Summer Games
Host City: Los Angeles, United States
Venue(s): State Armory of the 160th Infantry, Olympic Park, Los Angeles, California
Date Started: July 31, 1932
Date Finished: August 1, 1932
|United States
Italy were the defending champions and had won the 1930 and 1931 World Championships, and with three of the four top places going to Italians in the individual foil (held after this event), they appeared to have the strongest team. But in the final pool, Italy, France and the United States tied with two victories against one defeat, Denmark losing all their matches and placing fourth. The medals came down to a barrage, in which France and Italy both easily defeated the United States. The French-Italian match decided the gold medal and was very close, with both teams winning eight bouts, the gold medal going to France on touches.

Battery sponge
Conventional batteries have a cathode at one end, an anode at the other, and an electrolyte in between -- a design that limits the speed that energy can flow. Now, Amy Prieto from Colorado State University has created a new battery from a copper foam substrate, coated with negative electrode for the anode, then coated in a solid electrolyte, with the rest is filled in with the cathode -- significantly increasing the surface areas, while decreasing ion travel distance, and, hence charge time. While still in early development, the new design could lead to higher energy density and faster charge times than lithium ion, with the added environmental bonus of using non-toxic chemicals, like citric acid instead of the sulphuric acid currently used in car batteries.
Self-driving cars
This year at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, automakers Toyota and Audi have shown their visions for automated driving. Both implementations differ from Google¦s fully-autonomous car project, which highlights integrated software mapping. Toyota showed off a Lexus LS 600 equipped to take control away from the driver only when an accident is predicted. Audi showed off a self-parking car, and alluded to an autonomous system that could be turned on to join self-driving motorcades for highway driving. Of course, I love autonomous cars -- because I want to drive while texting and drinking whiskey in a school zone. Now, it¦ll be a little bit safer.
Robot cockroach
Duncan Haldane from the University of California, Berkeley, has presented VelociRoACH, a four-inch cockroach-inspired robot capable of running at 2.7 m/s, making it one of the fastest legged robots in the world. The legs are thin, C-shaped springs that rotate fifteen times per second, and for stability, three of the six legs are touching the ground at all times. The robot can also climb obstacles by slamming into them and popping up and over. A cockroach? This is the most disgusting and revolting robot in the world, but only because I haven¦t finished my robot Honey Boo Boo¦s Mom. Yet.
Robots locate endangered whales
Autonomous marine gliders operating in the Gulf of Maine in early December successfully located nine endangered right whales, enabling an advisory to boats in the area to decrease speed to help avoid a collision. Gliders are programmed to periodically dive and listen for calls of sei, fin, humpback and right whales, and then surface, and transmit the results via satellite. The Gulf of Maine was previously suspected of being a right whale winter mating area, and the gliders reported the whale song within hours of hitting the water.
Miniature X-ray scanner
X-ray machines are generally big and heavy, but now Scott Kovaleski and his team from the University of Missouri have developed an x-ray scanning device roughly as big as a pack of gum. The device works by exposing a piezoelectric crystal of lithium niobate with an alternating current, which causes mechanical vibration. By adjusting the current to ten volts at forty kilohertz, and installing tiny wire points on the crystals, the vibration generated an electric field equivalent to one hundred thousand volts, which is enough to produce x-rays. With x-ray scanners this small, can we please build my x-ray glasses already? I¦m still mad at that cereal box¦s false advertising.
White House rejects Death Star
By law, the White House must respond to any petition submitted with at at least twenty-five thousand signatures, and in December, a petition was submitted with over thirty-four thousand online signatures urging construction of a Death Star. Now, Paul Shawcross from the White House Office of Management and Budget has responded in a document entitled, (This Isn¦t the Petition Response You¦re Looking For.÷ Sadly, du

It's been awhile since I posted a true scale Travel Post on this blog . . . which is odd - because Letters of Thought was conceived as in Vilna and started in Venice as a travelogue.
But the wait is over my friends . . . instead of a Picture of the Week, I give you 20 of them -
Part One of Mottel in the Big Easy: Of Social Media and Bourbon Street.
Click on the link to enjoy!
A week after Purim in LA, Chana and I were flown out, so that I could speak at a Jewish youth program in New Orleans on Social Media and Judaism.
Landing Thursday night, we went to the National World War II museum. Why of all places the countries WWII museum is New Orleans - I'm not entirely sure . . . but it's an amazing museum!
Unfortunately my pictures of the museum were somehow lost while transferring from my netbook to my trusty laptop . . . sigh. If they show up, I'll put them in their own post.
A Street Car
Architecture along S. Charles st.
Rocking chairs in front of the ShotGun house we stayed in (good friends of Chana - thank you so much!)
On Sunday we went down to Metairie to speak at the Bagrut program.
I spoke of Judaism and technology - and how we could use it for world good.
And then we hit the old city . . .
Music was everywhere . . . and the photos seemed to take themselves!
Two very interestingly dressed dudes . . . no idea where they're from.
I love this shot
Kiddushin 33a: Kamah harpatki adu alayhu d'hani
There were bikes everywhere . . .
The Big Easy and Bourbon street
Classic New Orleans architecture
Two men with their books
This band just looked so cool
I managed to shoot this one from the hip - he was looking right at me, and I wanted the image to be candid
The old blends with the new
This Guy wanted money for the picture - only had a few cents on me . . . So I suppose it was worth it.

New York State Catholic Conference is praising the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Town of Greece, New York v. Galloway that upholds the rights of local governments to offer ceremonial prayers.
The town, located outside Rochester, opens its monthly meeting with a prayer led by a local faith leader, almost all of whom were Christian until complaints from two women — who would end up as plaintiffs — led elected officials to invite "a Jewish layman and the chairman of the local Baha'i temple."
The decision also notes that a "Wiccan priestess who had read press reports about the prayer controversy requested, and was granted, an opportunity to give the invocation."
Here's the statement from Richard E. Barnes, executive director of the Conference:
"In its decision in the Town of Greece case, the Supreme Court has correctly interpreted the Constitution and reaffirmed the rightful place of ceremonial prayer in the proceedings of American government. Some in our country may wish it otherwise, but a simple reading of the Declaration of Independence ('The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America') confirms that this nation was built on the foundational understanding that our rights are derived from our Creator, whereas government is the instrument made by the people 'to secure these rights.' We do not owe our thanks to government for our rights; the Constitution was and is merely a written and interpreted expression of the rights already granted us by God. Our uniquely American public ceremonial prayer is a recognition of these 'self-evident' truths, and those who seek to undermine this practice do so, unwittingly perhaps, but systematically and steadily, at the peril of the Republic."
Here's the court's decision:
