Sir Herbert Varney (1858–1889) was a vampire who preyed upon London women in the 1880s. He was eventually caught and killed by a specially-assigned group of wizards from the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures. He appears on a Famous Wizard Card.
Behind the scenes
- Herbert Varney may have been loosely based on Jack the Ripper, who in 1888 brutally murdered at least five women in London, but was never caught.[1]
- Although Varney is the name of places and companies,[2], and the surname of certain celebrities[3], this character probably references Varney the Vampire or the Feast of Blood, a Gothic horror story written by James Malcolm Rymer in the 19th century, and one of the first vampire novels ever written (predating and influencing Bram Stoker's more popular Dracula).[4]

Recently, over 400 children with disabilities from six schools in Dar es Salaam and Coast regions, gathered at the Uhuru Mchanganyiko Primary School to take part in a unique festival of sports.
Indeed, considering that sport for people and youngsters with disabilities seems to be almost non-existent, the event was an enormous boost for Paralympics on the local scene. Having said this though, one has to remember that there are still precious few opportunities for people with disabilities to engage in sports.
As I previously asserted, there needs to be a complete change in our collective mindset as a society about how we view the importance of sports for people with disabilities.
It is difficult to argue with the view that for some time now, the hallowed rights of people and youngsters with disabilities to develop their intrinsic sporting potential have been blatantly disregarded.
Come to think of it, the manner in which we treat people with disabilities in other spheres of life as well, leaves much to be desired.
For instance, anyone would be extremely hard pressed to find a commercial bus that comes readily equipped with a ramp to make it easier for wheelchair users to get on and off the bus. In addition, very few of the television stations on the local media landscape broadcast their nightly news bulletins with the help of a sign language translator which would make it easier for the deaf to understand what is being said.
So, perhaps it is unsurprising that this same indifferent attitude would extend to the way in which we regard the value of sport for people with disabilities.
The tragedy is that in an Olympic and Paralympics year, people with disabilities in the country will have to make do with hearing and reading of the quintessential exploits of others with disabilities excelling on the international sporting stage.
Bluntly put, this is simply not good enough. As others have stressed time and again, we need to try infinitely harder to ensure that people and youngsters with disabilities are given sufficient opportunities to engage in sports on a regular and consistent basis throughout the year, every year. Otherwise we will have failed them.

There are lots of great lines in Susan Campbell's column this morning.
No surprise; homegirl can write.
The line about our newsroom repainted to look like a day-care center is a keeper.
But the one line -- actually three words -- that stand out to me, and that both lovers and haters of the Courant should really dwell on over their morning coffee is included in this paragraph:
"Yes, The Courant has changed, but if you're moved to send me one of those condolence e-mails ("How are you, really?"), don't. Much to our mutual surprise, the pterodactyl and I are still here. We're. Still. Here."
We're. Still. Here.

Firefly Projects is a large housing project in southeastern Broker. It is bordered to the north by Deadwood Street and to the northwest by Onondaga Avenue (South Slopes); to the west also by Onondaga Avenue (Hove Beach); to the south by Crockett Avenue (Beachgate); and to the east by the Broker-Dukes Expressway and the Broker Sound.
The Liberty City Subway does not serve the area; however, residents in the southern and western areas may choose to use Hove Beach station in its namesake neighborhood, while those in the northern and eastern blocks might find it more convenient to head north to South Slopes for the Schottler station.
The Firefly Projects is a working-class, run-down and heavily deprived neighborhood which consists of large housing complexes and projects. The Projects in Firefly are actually the largest housing projects in Broker. The area is highly residential and is infamous for a very high crime rate. Demographically, the area is primarily made up of African-americans. The area suffers from intense gang violence aswell as a large drug problem and is one of the more active areas of Liberty City for drug trafficking (especially Broker). Culturally speaking, the area is influenced by the hip hop culture. Statistically, the Firefly Projects often has a higher crime rate than any other neighborhood in Broker.Aside from its extensive apartment/projects complex, Firefly Projects also houses a train yard that branches off the Broker Line.
Common pedestrians in the Firefly Projects include gang bangers, homeless people, regular pedestrians, and prostitutes that spawn at night.
The Firefly Projects are primarily based off of Brownsville, East New York and Ocean Hill. The same neighborhoods exhibit the same social problems and crime rate. The projects are based off of the Van Dyke houses in Brownsville were the movie Brooklyn's Finest was filmed.
- Firefly Projects is notable for its glitch-laden swingsets, capable of flinging, at great heights and distances, vehicles that push against them. While there are four such swings in the area, only two are situated in an area that has ample room for players to drive in with a moderate-sized vehicle. The swingsets are also known to hit and fling players in contact with the swing through the same process.[1]thumb|289px|right|The Swing Glitch

Hydrothermic vent, Mariana Marine National Monument. NOAA
Thermus aquaticus, a bacterial thermophile
Source: Govt of Canada An extremophile is an organism adapted to unusual limits of one or more abiotic factors in the environment. Some of the extreme conditions are temperature, pH, high salinity, high levels of radiation and high pressure. Note that some of these factors, such as temperature and pH, have two extrema. Most extremophiles are micro-organisms such as bacteria and archaea, since higher organisms generally are less adaptive to wide variations from the norm in environmental conditions. Upper limits of existence for carbon based lifeforms appear to be about 150 degrees Celsius, based upon inherent thermal stabilities of amino acids and polypeptides essential to DNA manufacture. In some cases extremophile metabolism thrives on the exotic variation in environmental conditions; in other situations, there is adaptive behavior such as metabolic diapause (cryptobiosis) or desiccation (endosphore formation).
Extremophiles are thought to have been some of the earliest lifeforms on earth, since such early organisms would have to be adapted to harsh conditions, at least in comparison to present day environments. Extremophiles may exist on other bodies in the solar system, such as Jupiter's moon Europa or on Mars. Some microorganism extremophiles have shown industrial potential, such as the ability to remove sulfur compounds from crude oil at high temperatures.
Example environments
There are a variety of natural environments on Earth that have very specialized abiotic factors. These habitats can be in deep marine settings, earth crust interiors, highly mineralized soils, extreme radiation surroundings or extreme aquatic chemical environments.
Hydrothermic deep-sea vents
Microoorganisms and even some marine fauna are often found in around deep-sea ocean floor vents, where water temperatures commonly exceed 80 degrees Celsius (C). In many cases these vents not only host a hyperthermal environment, but also one that is rich in gases such as methane and sulfur compounds, which are actually metabolized by some of the organisms in this marine microclimate.
Thermal deep-sea black smokers
Atlantic Ocean black smoker. Source: NOAA As a variant to hydrothermic ocean floor vents, there are numerous discharges from marine petroleum deposits that are rich in hydrocarbons and also exhibit elevated thermal regimes. An example microorganism occurring in such a vent chimney is Pyrolobus fumarii, which can metabolize at temperatures as high as 113 degrees C, but cannot thrive in temperatures lower than 90 degrees C. Reproduction of this species is so high that it can double its biomass in 24 hours.
High altitude ice sheets
Combination of extremely low temperatures and low atmospheric pressure are hallmarks of certain high altitude environments such as the Himalaya Mountains. Certain microorganisms and some fauna such as Water-bears can survive in these extreme settings, which are reminders that we are still living in the final throes of the Fifth Ice Age of the Earth.
Permafrosts and methane clathrates
Lower temperature levels for many permafrost and other extreme cold regimes harbor microorganisms that have not been well explored, with little systematic metabolism being at temperatures near or below zero degrees Celsius . Lake Volstok ice cores have produced information that some sulfur reducing archaea are present in the deep methane clathrates.
Volcanic vents
There are numerous locations throughout the world where high temperature steam exudes from volcanic systems, yielding the combination of high temperatures and normally toxic gases. Vents often contain carbon monoxide, which is generally not useful and often toxic to most lifeforms. However, certain microorganisms can metabolize carbon monoxide (CO) at these vent outlets, and some are obligate consumers of the CO. It is important to note that many of the vent systems are extensively separated from the main volcanic vent; for example, in northern Costa Rica, there are hundreds of micro-vents distributed over an area of hundreds of square kilometers, most occurring in rather typical microclimates of the region.
Hot springs
Uzon Caldera, Kamchatka, Russia. Source: Dan Miller/USGS Extremely high temperatures are created in surface geyser pools, mud pools as well as subsurface aquifers. Many of these environments are habitatable for microorganism thermophiles. Example occurrences of these springs include northern Kyushu, Japan; Yellowstone National Park, USA; Lassen Volcanic National Park, USA; Eureka Hot Springs, Arkansas, USA; Rincon de la Vieja National Park, Costa Rica; San Miguel, Azores; Hveragerdi, Iceland; Gilroy Yamato Hot Springs, California, USA; Uzon Caldera, Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia; Rotokawa region near Taup?, New Zealand. Many of these locales not only are invested with thermophilic bacteria, but also host specialists that are sulfur and hydrogen reducing species, such as Sulfurihydrogenibium rodmanii at Hveragerdi. Some hot springs like those at Taup? and Lassen are notable, because some are highly acidic in addition to their high temperatures.
Salt pans
There are numerous salt pans throughout the world that provide hypersaline environments inhospitable to most lifeforms except for certain salt loving microorganisms and brine shrimp. Many of these environments such as the Makgadikgadi and Etosha Pans in Southern Africa are seasonal wetlands.
Extreme pH waters
Unusually acidic or basic water environments are usually not hospitable to eukaryotes; however, many micro-organisms are adapted to these settings. For example numerous archaea utilize low pH habitats, the most extreme examples being Picrophilus torridus and Picrophilus oshimae, both of which metabolize optimally at pH 0.7. Bacteria are less tolerant of such extreme acidity, but some bacterial species, such as thermoanaeorbacterium aotearoensis tolerate pH as low as 3.8, along with an associated temperature of 60 degrees C.
Bacteria extremophiles
Deinococcus radiodurans tetrad, resistant to ionizing
radiation. Source: Oak Ridge National Lab Ancestors of extant bacteria are thought to be unicellular organisms, possibly the first lifeforms of the planet Earth, appearing approximately 3.5 billion years before present. Some of the earliest evidence of bacteria is in Onverwacht shales of South Africa. Scientists regard the emergence of bacteria as one of the most astounding events in Earth history, since there are no other proto-lifeforms of their complexity that previously were known to exist on Earth. How and where bacteria developed is one of the great mysteries of science. Bacterial micro-organisms likely diverged from archaea around about 3.2 to 2.5 billion years before present, with their common ancestor possibly a hyperthermophile, e.g. a creature capable of surviving unusually high thermal regimes.
One early bacterium, Kakabekia umbellata, has been determined to have existed in disparate locales including North Wales, Alaska and Iceland; the fact that this set of occurrences all share soils that are ammonia rich has prompted speculation that this bacterium derived from an era when the Earth's environment was rich in ammonia. Until approximately one billion years before present, in fact, Earth's lifeforms were dominated by microscopic creatures such as bacteria, viruses and archaea.
Many bacterial species are extremophiles, which are adapted variously to extreme temperature, pressure, pH, salinity and other abiotic factors. The family Thermaceae is comprised by a number of thermophilic genera, including Thermus, Meiothermus, Marinithermus, Vulcanithermus, Oceanithermus and Truepera.
Bacterial members of genus Deinococcus are highly resistent to extreme doses of ionising radiation. In fact, some bacterial species within each phylum are some type of extremophile, and in some cases a given bacterium may be an extremophile with respect to two or more abiotic parameters.
Archaea extremophiles
Dead Sea genus Halobacteria has halophilic
and radiation resistant properties. Source: NASA Early researchers thought that most Archaeans were extremophiles, existing at the environmental limits of abiotic factor ranges; in recent years, it has been found that numerous Archaea inhabit a broad range of habitats and environmental conditions.
Some Haloarchaea undergo phenotypic switching and grow as several different cell types, including thick-walled structures that are highly resistant to osmotic shock; these thickened walls permit survival hyposaline (low salt) circumstances, but these alternative phenotypes are not actual reproductive structures, but rather may assist the archaea in reaching new habitats.
Indeed, some archaea thrive in extreme temperatures, often above 100 degrees C; for example, they occur in geysers, black smokers, and oil wells. Other viable environments include very cold environments and highly saline, acidic, or alkaline media. For example, Picrophilus torridus, an extreme archaean acidophile, thrives at pH of essentially zero, equivalent to a 1.2 molar concentration of sulfuric acid. Archaea are also found in very cold ocean environments including polar seas. Many archaea also occur throughout the world's oceans among plankton communities as part of the picoplankton. Moreover, archaea include mesophiles that grow in mild conditions, in marshes, sewage, the oceans, and soils.
Halophiles, including the archaea genus Halobacterium, survive in hypersaline environments such as salt lakes and can outcompete bacterial counterparts at salinities greater than 20 percent. Thermophiles grow best at temperatures above 45 degrees C, in locales such as hot springs; hyperthermophilic archaea grow optimally at temperatures greater than 80 degrees C. Strain 166 of the archaean Methanopyrus kandleri Strain 116 survivess at 122 degrees C, the highest recorded temperature for any organism.
Fauna extremophiles
The extremophile Water-bear Hypsibius dujardini.
Source: Bob Goldstein It is much less common for eukyrotes or any multicellular organisms to tolerate extreme environments, although many plant species can survive extremes of soil pH and mineralization. Eukyarotes in general rarely survive temperatures in excess of 60 degrees C.
The most amazing animal extremophiles are certain members of the phylum Tardigrada, or Water-bears, many of which attain a length of 1.5 millimeters. Some species have survived space vacuum conditions (imposing extreme dehydration) and solar/galactic cosmic radiation. Tardigrada belong to a set of anhydrobiotic organisms which have evolved adaptations to survive almost complete desiccation allowing them to withstand the unfiltered solar radiation in outer space. In addition some Tardigrada have been shown to survive temperatures in excess of 150 degrees C, making them the most extreme hyperthermophile on Earth. Conversely some Water-bears have been shown to suvive the extreme cold of one degree Kelvin. Pressure regimes survived by some Water-bears exceed 5000 atmopheres, or higher than that of the deepest ocean trench.
One of the most abundant and widespread groups of arthropod extremophiles are certain brine shrimp, which are tolerant of very high salinities, and in many cases temperature and desiccation extremes.
Alvinella pompejana, commonly called the Pompeii worm is a deep ocean polychaete species occurring solely around hydrothermal vents in the Pacific Ocean, first discovered in the early 1980s near the Galápagos Islands. This amazing creature can survive temperatures of 80 degrees C, classifying it as a hyperthermophile. More amazingly, while its tail is immersed in that elevated temperature, its feather-like head protrudes into cooler waters of 22 degrees C, with its whole 13 cm body being enshrined in a papery tube.
Echinoamoeba therarum is a small thermophilic amoebid organism that has been shown to live in hot springs with temperatures as high as 50 degrees C.
Flora extremophiles
The extremophile Salt cress. Numerous plant species have tolerance to extreme temperatures, pH, chemical soil concentrations and salinity. Desert environments have produced many examples of plants that are adapted to high temperatures, as well as aridity. Saline environments, such as marsh fringes and salt pans have produced many halophyte species, both upland and submerged vegetation. An example species with polyextremophile dimensions is Salt cress, Thellungiella halophila, a minute annual crucifer; this plant is stable down to -15 degrees C and is tolerant of very high salinity levels.
An important class of extremophiles in North American botany are serpentine endemics. Serpentine refers to a particularly harsh soil type. These plants have a variety of tolerances to chemical imbalance relative to typical ranges of soil metals. These ultramafic or serpentine soils are are high in magnesium and low in calcium and also characteristically high in nickel and chromium content; such soils are also typically nutrient poor. Example plants inhabiting such habitats include Leather oak (Quercus durata), Cedars buckwheat (Eriogonum cedrorum) and Tiburon jewelflower (Streptanthus niger). Many of the serpentine restricted species are rare plants, due to the highly specialized environment. Examples of such habitats that are correspondingly rich in rare and endangered endemics are Ring Mountain, Marin County and The Cedars, Sonoma County, both in California.

On Saturday, August 14, a group of a dozen or so gathered at Amtrak's Kalamazoo station for a "train ride to the 18th century" to visit the 2010 Fort St. Joseph Archaeology Open House in Niles. The trip, organized by retired Western Michigan University librarian Kay Chase, gave Kalamazoo residents a chance to visit the site of historic Fort St. Joseph, only recently discovered and being gradually unearthed as part of a WMU field school project.
The theme of this year's open house was "Women of New France," with demonstrations on cooking, basket weaving, musket firing, and other activities from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Student archaeologists operated an "Outdoor Museum" with details of their work and examples of what has been found.
The fort, active from 1671-1781, was established by the French as a trading post, but ultimately stood under English, Spanish and finally United States rule before being abandoned in 1781—hence the region's designation as the "Four Flags Area." The fort played a significant role in the colonial fur trade, and though its existence was known, its exact location remained a mystery until a short time ago.
Fort St. Joseph originally shared a great deal with its northern counterpart, Fort Michilimackinac, but don't expect a similar reconstruction of the fort in Niles any time soon. The Fort St. Joseph project is still very much in its infancy, and unfortunately, due to the damming of the St. Joe River over the years, much of the site now lies beneath the current water table. Archaeologists must continuously pump water away from the site while they work, then allow the river to reclaim its territory at the end of each season.
What we found most impressive, however, was the enthusiasm displayed by each of the student archaeologists. They are to be commended for cheerfully and knowledgably—if not emphatically—describing their work and bringing their methods and their findings to light for us onlookers. And what they are finding is truly amazing… the remains of a blacksmith's fire pit, apparent building footings, and a host of artifacts – animal bones, gun parts, tools, buttons, jewelry, and the like. It was a truly inspiring and rewarding experience.
Learn more about the history of Fort St. Joseph in Fort St. Joseph, 1691-1781: The Story of Berrien County's Colonial Past by Joseph L. Peyser and Robert C. Myers, and be sure to visit the WMU Fort St. Joseph Archaeological Project website.

WASHINGTON – No, D.C. is not a state, but it now has a high school football state champion.
The Friendship Collegiate Public Charter School Knights (8-3) beat the Dunbar High Crimson Tide (10-3) 48-12 in the inaugural D.C. State Athletic Association (DCSAA) championship game on Saturday at Howard University's Greene Stadium.
Friendship Coach Aazaar Abdul-Rahim said "the party's just getting started" while thanking fans, teachers and players in a post-game speech.
This is Abdul-Rahim's first championship in his nine-year coaching career at the school.
"It's been a long journey," he says. "So, selfishly it's a great feeling."
Friendship Academy stormed out to a 14-0 first quarter lead on the strength of a safety and two touchdown runs before Dunbar got on the board with an 88-yard kickoff return by Patrick Witherspoon, putting the score at 14-6.
Friendship Academy scored again and took a 22-6 halftime lead, and the team rolled from there. The Knights outscored the Crimson Tide 26-6 in the second half.
"It was a good game. Congrats to them," says Dunbar lineman Terrance Duffy, who injured his right leg in the first half.
Duffy's mother agreed that it was a good game and said she's still proud of her son and the team for a successful season.
The public school versus charter school championship game was made possible when the DCSAA was formed in May of 2011 under the Office of the Superintendent of Education.
Clark Ray was appointed the new agency's athletic director by D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray, and was tasked with creating the game.
Until now, a city champion was determined in the D.C. Interscholastic Athletic Association (DCIAA) title game, known as the Turkey Bowl. Dunbar won it this year beating Anacostia High 12-8. However, only public schools were allowed to compete.
Ray has tweaked things a bit by setting up a four-team playoff system. The new state title game pits the winner of the DCIAA game against the winner of a matchup of two teams within the Washington Charter School Athletic Association, the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference and the Interstate Athletic Conferences.
"Now that we have 42, 43 percent of our kids in public charter schools, and they have athletic programs, there was an opportunity to bridge that, unify it, bring them all under one roof, and that's what we did," says Ray.
Donna Parker, mom of Friendship Academy quarterback Deandre Parker, says the win is for all the alumni who never got to play in a championship game.
"I'm just glad Friendship can shut the city up," Parker says.
There was a scary moment in the second quarter on the Dunbar sideline. Defensive end Maurice Glasow's jersey and shoulder pads were taken off his body, his neck was placed in a brace and he was rolled onto a stretcher. Officials say he suffered a head injury while making a tackle. He was taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital, but is said to be okay.
Abdul-Rahim says while he wants his players to enjoy their championship, he hopes the adversity the team went through will allow them to succeed beyond the football field.
"I think if we preach and do the right things on and off the field good things will happen," he says. "This is a good thing."

CIT in Action – Vol. 2, Issue 2
November 2007
Feature Story: CIT on Campus
College and university campuses around the country are embracing CIT as a way to better serve students experiencing a crisis, integrate their services with the broader community, and maintain campus safety. We spoke with law enforcement agencies on several campuses to learn more about the unique opportunities and challenges faced by CIT programs on campus.
The campus environment is unique in that young people on campus are at an age when the onset of mental illness often occurs, and the stress of the transition to college life can often trigger depression or other mental illnesses. When a crisis occurs, CIT can help officers respond effectively: Leslie Wiete, Patrol Sergeant at
At the same time, campuses may be an ideal environment for CIT because they already have in place some of the collaborations necessary for CIT to succeed. Alan Gutierrez, chief of police at
Gutierrez also pointed out that collaboration with off-campus groups is a priority; the university is part of a broader
While the opportunities and challenges of a campus CIT program may be unique, officers emphasize that the benefits of a CIT program are similar whether it's located on or off campus. Campus law enforcement agencies are building the same kind of collaborations and using the same strategies as other law enforcement agencies. Officers emphasize the importance of relationships with NAMI, the mental health
We are encouraged to hear about campus communities embracing CIT, and would like to learn about other campus programs. To comment, email firstname.lastname@example.com. To learn more, you can contact any of the officers mentioned in this story. To contact Sgt. Wiete at
Advocacy Spotlight: Talking Points
Whether it's talking to the media, introducing CIT to your local law enforcement agency or making a convincing argument to your state legislators, advocates need to be prepared to speak clearly and concisely about the importance of CIT.

News from the States
NAMI Indiana Honors Department of Corrections Commissioner
At its annual convention, NAMI Indiana presented NAMI National's Excellence in Community Mental Health Service Award to Indiana Department of Corrections Commissioner J. David Donahue. Commissioner Donahue has collaborated with NAMI Indiana to develop and implement a training course on mental illnesses for correctional officers. So far, over 700 corrections officers have been trained in several facilities. The 10-hour training program includes causes and treatments of mental illness, how to recognize symptoms, and how to interact with people experiencing psychiatric symptoms. Preliminary outcomes are very promising: since the February 2004 training at the Wabash Valley Correctional Facility Secure Housing Unit, use of force among those trained has decreased by 70%. To learn more about this effort, contact Kellie Meyer, M.A., criminal justice director, NAMI Indiana, email@example.com or visit the Indiana Department of Corrections website.

- "Sneaky wimps' way of punching. Highly illegal."
- — GTA Vice City Website.
Brass Knuckles are metal devices with holes punched through them, and are thus intended to be worn on the fingers while the fist is clenched. They are meant to increase the force of a punch, while minimizing the initial force needed to throw an arm, and when used properly, they create massive damage against an intended target and can kill with only 2 or 3 direct hits. Brass Knuckles have been available in Grand Theft Auto games since Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and have been available in every subsequent game except Grand Theft Auto Advance, Grand Theft Auto IV, (and its episodes) and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. In each game, the force of a single Brass Knuckle punch is enough to knock a person to the floor.
- In some missions when you must enter somewhere unarmed, the knuckles won't be thought by people to be a weapon.

Birth Place: Omaha, Nebraska, USA
Union made her feature acting debut in 1999's "She's All That", serving as the friend and conscience for Freddie Prinze Jr.'s sensitive but deceitful hero with a small but pivotal role. That same year, she played a far more sinister character as the back-stabbing best friend of Bianca (Larisa Oleynik) in "10 Things I Hate About You", the teen take on "The Taming of the Shrew". Though the actress was by then in her mid-twenties, she was still very believable as a teen, even as the particularly immature and petty Chastity. These youthful looks would work to her advantage, as the spate of teen-aimed fare seemed nowhere in sight. The critically acclaimed romantic drama "Love & Basketball" (2000)... Continue Bio >>

For students enrolled in the Blitstein Institute the Judaic Major is in an area of Advanced
Hebrew Studies.
A similar intensity pervades the advanced level Judaic Studies courses at the Blitstein
Institute. Lectures, guided seminar discussions, cooperative learning experiences in and out
of the classroom as well as individual research develop mastery of learning skills, depth of
knowledge and creative thought and expression in the chosen major. The specific course
requirements are determined on the basis of the student's prior studies by the advisor and
approved by the Dean. Students who do not pursue Talmud as the Judaic major are bound
by the Jewish Law Requirement, described below.
Jewish Law Requirement
The courses in Jewish Law provide a foundation in ritual law and traditional custom that
govern specific aspects of life, both sacred and mundane. They are designed to provide the
information required for normative Jewish life, as well as an understanding of the legal and
ethical roots of prescribed practice in Biblical and Rabbinic sources, and the basis for
divergent customs and Psak Halacha. The overarching goal is to instill in each student an
appreciation for the Halachic process and a commitment to Torah observance that permeates
throughout one's life.
Students not majoring in Talmud must complete one of the following two course sequences:
JLAW 125 & 225, or JLAW 127 & 227, or their equivalents, or demonstrate via
examination mastery of Hilchot Shabbat and Kashrut, as part of the six credit Jewish Law
requirement for the Bachelor of Arts.
Major in Bible
The Bible Department provides all students of Hebrew Theological College with grounding
in the methods of classic Torah study, while giving them a base of knowledge about the
persons, historical events, issues, and values that make up the three sections of the Tanach
— Pentateuch, Prophets, and Hagiographa. The aim of the Bible Department — in
conjunction with the Department of Hebrew Language and Literature — is to provide each
student with proficiency in Biblical Hebrew, along with skills in critical reading and
analytical thinking, to enable and foster lifelong independent Torah learning, and to foster
an integration of the Torah's dictums and values into each student's life.
Students who select Bible as their major are required to complete no less than 30 semester
hours in Biblical study (i.e. 18 semester hours above and beyond the 12 required by the core
curriculum), 10 of which must be completed in residence. Moreover, at least two-thirds of
those courses (i.e. 20 semester hours) must be selected from advanced courses (numbering
in the 200s and 300s).
Each student's program of study will be designed to address the student's interests,
strengths, and deficiencies with the guidance of the assigned advisor to ensure that the
student's base of Biblical knowledge is sufficiently broad in scope, and that the student's
skills in independent research are adequately honed. Prior to graduation, each student must
successfully complete tone of the following series of courses (BIBL 332 & 333, BIBLE
361& 362, BIBL 363 & 364, BIBL 370 & 371), which incorporate comprehensive
examinations and significant research.
Major in Jewish History
In addition to offering students valuable historical information with which to interpret
situations, create systems of values, satisfy intellectual curiosity, and allow the opportunity
to make informed decisions about the future based on knowledge of the past, the study of
History seeks to address and inform the following skills, which are applicable both to the
study of History and to other disciplines as well:
Analytical Thinking
Human Differences/Comparative Analysis
Communication Skills
Methodology and Research
Organizational Skills
Students who select Jewish History as their major are required to complete a total of 30
semester hours in Jewish History (24 semester hours above and beyond the 6 required by the
core curriculum), of which at least 10 semester hours must be completed in residence. A
required course for the Jewish History Major is HIST 101 - The Historian's Craft: The
Methods, Models and Objectives of Historical Study. Furthermore, Jewish History majors
are required to complete an additional 6 semester hours in General (Non-Jewish) History
courses which will apply towards the 30 credit required core of Liberal Arts and Sciences
(e.g. World Civilization, American History). All majors must complete no less than 12
semester hours in advanced courses (numbered 300 or above). Prior to graduation, each
student must submit a significant research thesis or complete a comprehensive exam.
Major in Interdisciplinary Judaic Studies
Students enrolled in the Blitstein Institute may choose a major from Hebrew, Bible, and
Jewish History or in an interdisciplinary area designed with the student's advisor and
approved by the Dean. When such an interdisciplinary major is approved, the student is
required to complete no less than 60 semester hours in Judaic Studies, 30 of which must be
at the 200 level of coursework or above. Such a student must complete at least 24 semester
hours of the Judaic Studies coursework in residence

Twenty-five Mainers are preparing to take part in a two-month long bio-monitoring study of chemicals in their bodies. The focus in on phthalates - chemicals that are used to soften plastics. As Patty Wight reports, the environmental group coordinating the study is also pushing the Maine Legislature to take up a bill next session that would require large companies to report which of their products contain the chemical.
Zach Bouchard, at podium, explains why he's participating in the so-called bio-monitoring study.
Phthalates are a hormone disruptor. They're already banned in toys and products marketed to children under three. But members of the Alliance for a Clean and Healthy Maine are concerned about exposure in a myriad of other products.
At a press conference in Portland, the president of the Southern Maine Labor Council, Doug Born, motioned to a table with shower curtains, shiny kids shoes, rain ponchos, and lotion.
"Are we exposing our kids to learning disabilities, reproductive problems, and asthma?" he asked. "We know that there is a good chance these products contain phthalates, but currently, there is no way to know for sure. And that's the problem."
To solve that problem, Alliance members want the Legislature to consider a bill in January that would list phthalates as a priority chemical, allowing the state to take action to remove it from products. The bill would also create transparency, says the director of Environment Maine, Emily Figdor.
"The second thing that this bill would do, is it would require manufacturers that earn over $100 million a year to actually disclose whether or not they're using phthalates in their products," Figdor said.
Legislative leaders are expected to make a decision on Nov. 21. In the meantime, 25 Mainers of different ages and occupations will undertake the research project by having themselves tested. Zach Bouchard says he's participating because he's the father of two young children.
"Just knowing that they don't really have a say in what chemicals and products we're puting in their bodies, and that's on us," Bouchard says. "And if we don't even know what we're doing to them, that seems really irresponsible."
The study is intended to provide a snapshot of what's happening in Maine. The results are due in early January.

Even without original member Meryn Saunders, Virgo Four continues to produce excellent Chicago flavored House Music. Therefore, its fitting that the first cut, titled "Just Let Me," seeks to take the listener on a journey back to the 80s heyday of Chicago house culture. With the same knack they had back in the day for creating music full of slinking synths, laid back atmospheres and sultry vocals this first track really sets the tone for this EP.
The aptly named "Superbass" follows a similar formula, but features a running staccato baseline with just the right amount of acid tinge to keep it from falling into the increasingly cliche modern deep house sound. Probably the standout track on the EP is "1986". This is that classic house sound done to perfection, which is easy for Eric Lewis and Terry Ivy since they were two of the people who helped define it. Closing up the EP is "Let Me Touch Your Soul" which is a bit more hypnotic and driving than the other tracks and features some solid drum programming and synth textures. This EP is destined to be a modern classic in House Music with its classic sound but modern polish, marking it as a must-have.POSTED BY

White Lies is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories given to protagonist Victor Vance by his brother Lance Vance from his apartment in Ocean Beach, Vice City.
Victor drops by Lance's apartment. Lance asks what he's doing there and after a while Louise, Victor's girlfriend, appears from the kitchen who says she and Lance got high together which angers Victor and after a long going argument, Lance runs outside to a chopper and threatens to give away all of his coke around the city. Victor then follows his chopper which drops a package spread all around Ocean Beach, in a hovercraft and collects as many packages as he can, completing the mission.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Get in the hovercraft
- Follow Lance's helicopter
- Collect the packages
Post mission pager message
Jerry Martinez: Hey, Vic. I'm back in town. How's that lady of your's? Think I might pay her a visit...
The reward for completing this mission is $1,500 and the unlock of mission Where it Hurts Most as well as Bovver '64 being available for purchase at The Clymenus Suite safehouse.
A trick to winning the level is not to backtrack for packages that are missed, because the Bovver falls too far behind Lance's chopper, it becomes impossible for Vic to pick up the packages before they disappear.
