THE ZERO HOUR APPROACHES On January 14th, 1938 there first appeared in the Jewish Floridian an editorial calling on the Jews of Greater Miami to ponder the advisability of Federation. Much water has gone over the dam since then. What was once thought to be a dream, an idle droam at that, is fast approaching reality. To- day we are fast approaching the Zero hour, the time when the signal will be given to the shock troops to "go over the top" in a ten day canvass of the Jewry of this area. Theirs will be the will to accomplish, to make good. The five hundred men and women workers of the Greater Miami Federation of Jewish Welfare Funds campaign will do their utmost to make this campaign a success. If their work counts, the Federation will have made history. Whether or not they are to succeed is to be decided not by the workers, but by the Jews of this area. Tis easy to sit idly by, to criticise .... to be passive and say there are many who should give, let them give and it will be sufficient. We hope that will not be the attitude of our people in Greater Miami who have never failed to meet the call when and as it arose. When the worker calls to see you beginning Sunday, Jan- uary 8th, don't keep him or her waiting. greet them with the smile they deserve. encourage them by cooperating. . give until it hurts don't wait to be persuaded---------- the worker is not out for himself----------he is out to help you aid those who cannot come to see you----------twenty-three m- stitntfewtare speaking to you at one and the same time. The verdict is in your hands----------Miami J*wry will measure up!________, The greyhounds have been run- ning for several days now at West Flagler Kennel Club. Large crowds have been jamming the grandstand and ramp of the pic- turesque westside oval, often cal- led America's most beautiful grey- hound racing track, and have been witnessing the running of some of the fastest dogs in the country. The dogs are now stepping at full speed. Each of the some 500 greyhounds kenneled at the track have had at least one official start and appear in exceptionally good condition for so early in the sea- son. The opening n:ght Monday found the track's namesake, West Flag- ler, holder of the Pacific Coast championship come sweeping home to victory over such notable con- tenders as Rip-a Rarin', Fence Guard and others. This West Flagler is a son of the one-time champion, Lucky Roll, and may be a world beater before the 80-day meeting comes to a close at the Flagler track. However, West Flagler, Rip-A- Rarin' and Fence Guard are not the only champions now racing at the westside track. There a*e Louise, futurity stake champion from the well-known Revere Beacb track in Massachusetts. Rural Rube, nursery champion from the same track; Never Fail, Harrison, Ind., derby winner and others of notable mention. For the convenience of fans, there are a number of exclusive features at West Flagler Kennel Club, such as electrically cooled drinking fountains, elaborate la- dies' lounge on the mezannine, mens' smoking room, an elaborate entrance beneath which automo- biles may discharge passengers during inclement weather, the ocktail bar and the palm-bowered latio garden. x-ic .

But the real problem (are we being overheard) and this too, after much conscien- tious discussion at the Associa- tion's annual convention in New York, iss, er, how to get a girl, er, to tell her, er, right age. Con vention is over-question is still moot. Five new Brotherhood groups this month joined the National Federation of Temple Brotherhoods, organization of Jew- ish laymen whose membership comprises 20,000 men from all parts of the U- S. and Canada, united in 120 local groups.

Mr. Isidor Cohen, known pioneer and leader, will be the guest speaker. He will discuss the sub- ject: "An Historical Sketch of Miami Jewry" SABBATH SERVICES We urge the parents not only to attend the adult Sabbath services every Saturday at 8:30 o'clock but to bring their children and parti- cipate in our Junior Congregation- al Services at 10:30 a. m. every Saturday.

He said: "Of course, we- must help Nazi refugees, both Jewish and Christian, but we must make sure that these poor souls who have been uprooted from their land are not made the instruments for the strengthening of the bank- rupt German economy." Negro symoathy for oppressed minorities in Central and Eastern Europe was expressed by a con- tribution of |130 donated by mem- bers of the Abyssinian Baptist Church in New York for refugee aid. The American Committee on Religious Rights and Minorities has issued a statement condemning the religious and racial persecu- tion by the Nazi government in Germany declaring that "A great national effort is demanded in Heads J.

W. Third Street ABRAHAM A. KELLNER. Rabbi RABBI'S RESIDENCE: 919 S. W. 18th Court; Phone 3-6192 A WORD IN TIME Much has recently been said about "The Coming ^of Age" of our growing Jewish community. This welcome observation, how- ever is somewhat premature when we view the religious field. There we are considerably behind and it behooves us to cast about and determine the best available meth- od which will eatable us to bring more, religion info our datt lives. It is humbly suggested that in addition to bringing our people to the Synagogue, we must bring the synagogue to our people. In subsequent issues we shall explain in detail the ways and means how we are to achieve the above. FRIDAY EVENING SERVICES At the initial session held last Friday night a goodly audience heard Rabbi Kellner's analysis of the problems that face American Jewry. This Friday evening, De- cember 30th, Rabbi Kellner will commence a series consisting of forum lectures, two to be given by himself and two by outstanding guest speakers who will discuss the solutions suggested by the four great phases of American life. The talk will concern the power of religion in warding off potential dangers in our midst. Thus these services will be utiliz- ed to acquaint our people with the means whereby they can achieve a fuller and more comprehensive Jewish life. These Friday even- ing open forums will not alone present just another talk but will instead be the scene of intelligent discussion and a place where the problems of our day will receive coherent analysis. As last week, we are again pleased to announce that Rev. Shalom Clein of the Ahavath Aihini Congregation in Atlanta, will be our guest and lead in the Congregational songs. LADIES AUXILIARY An important meeting will be j held on Tuesday evening, January 3rd in the Synagogue at which time reports will be rendered about the recently held Chanuka party. We take this means of thanking the good ladies whose sincere efforts made the affair such an outstanding success. Thank's are also due to our many friends who so loyally came to as. sure a splendid evening for them- selves and a good income for our Talmud Torah. INSTALLATION BANQUET A splendidly arranged banquet Will be held on Sunday night, January 1st in the Palatial Kosher Restaurant in honor of our newly elected officers. Besidese a first class dinner the committee in charge headed by Mr. H. M. Dre- vich has secured the services of several outstanding singers whose contributions no doubt will make the evening a fine social success. Rabbi Abraham A. Kellner will be the principal speaker of the even- ing and officers will be installed by our secretary, Mr. E. Albert Pailot. BOARD OF DIRECTORS An important meeting of our Board of Directors will be held on Tuesday evening, January 3rd in the synagogue. Initial reports will be given by the building com- mittee and plans will be formu- lated for an intensive membership drive which will be climaxed with a gala Purim dinner on Sunday night, March 5th which will be Purim evening. BAR MITZVAH The Bar Mitsvah of Martin Ru- bin of 862 Southwest 13th Ave- nue will be celebrated in our syn. agogue this coming Sabbath morn- ing. May his parents and grand- parents see him grow up into a proud and successful man of our community. CONG R ATU LATIONS We extend sincere Mazel Tov greetings to our good friends, Mr. and Mrs. William Clein upon the recent engagement o ftheir young- set son, Ben, to Miss Evelyn Marks. NEW GROUP FORMED At a recently held meeting in our synagogue the Mizrachi of Miami was officially organized and the following were named as temporary officers: president, Rabbi Abraham A. Kellner; secre- tary, Mr. Philip Zimmerman and treasurer, Mr. William Clein. Plans are being perfected for a mass meeting in the near future when permanent officers will be elected. HABANOTH NOTES The sponsors of the three Mi- ami Habanoth groups met with Mrs. Herbert S. Goldstein, former National President of the Womens Branch of the Union of Orthodox Congregations under whose aus- pices the Habanoth movement was launched.

It is "bussed" to us that the said "BB" smoker will be gigantic, stu- pendous, colossal, and in the lan- guage of "Schnozzle Durante" "even mediocre"which gives new members something to look for- ward to. We have it from good authority ("Bro. Bandler" and "yours truly," as co-chairmen) that the entertainment program will provide such outstanding celebri- ties as Walter Winchell, Nick Kenny and perhaps Rubinoff "with or "without." Also we will be entertained by certain special- ty acts from a few of the promi- nent night clubs on the Beach and in town. Refreshments, food and prises will complete an evening well rounded. Those Ben Briths and their friends who are fortu. nate enough to attend said Stag Smoker will witness a refreshing eve of fun and good fellowship.

Unfortunately, those rights are now under attack.
In 1997, motion picture studios, record producers, book publishers and other content owners came to Congress with a simple proposition: Give us a law that will stop pirates from circumventing technical protection measures used to safeguard copyrighted works, and we will release all sorts of exciting new content in digital formats.
At the time, libraries, universities, consumer electronics manufacturers, Internet portals and others warned that enactment of the broadly worded legislation would stifle new technology, would threaten access to information, and would move us inexorably towards a "pay per use" society. That day is now close at hand.
When Congress considered the content community's anti-circumvention proposal, I put forward a series of amendments intended to preserve the fair-use rights of consumers. My colleagues and I feared that broad application of the proposed new anti-circumvention law would threaten the viability of the fair-use doctrine in the digital age.
Unfortunately, as so often happens, Congress paid more attention to the loudest voices in the debate.
In writing the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) of 1998, Congress made some important, but ultimately modest, changes to the original proposal. And we persuaded ourselves that we had achieved a rough balance of interests. But in the end, Congress agreed to a fundamentally flawed bill, which created the new crime of circumvention--a crime divorced from over a century and a half of respect for the fair-use rights of consumers.
The DMCA, as enacted, quite clearly tilted the balance in the Copyright Act toward complete protection and away from information availability.
In the three years since the law was enacted, we have not seen the promised new digital content. Instead, we have seen a rash of lawsuits; the imprisonment by U.S. authorities of a Russian computer programmer who had come to the United States to give a technical talk; and, more recently, the release of compact discs into the market that cannot be played in computers or even some CD players, and thus cannot be used to create custom compilations of consumers' favorite songs.
Some of the most serious lawsuits have implicated academic freedom and free speech. In response to an open challenge by the Secure Digital Music Initiative (SDMI), which invited the world to seek to defeat the watermarking technologies it had proposed for protecting digital audio content, Princeton University Professor Edward Felten and his colleagues defeated all of the proposed watermarks. The Felten team then sought to exercise their First Amendment rights by publishing the results of their scientific research and presenting the paper at a security conference.
Before he presented the paper, however, Felten received a threatening letter from the SDMI warning that doing so would subject him to liability under the DMCA. Felten then filed a lawsuit to uphold his First Amendment right to publish his research findings. The case has been dismissed, but the issue has not gone away, because the judge did not rule on the actual merits of his complaint.
Similarly, the publisher of 2600 magazine was sued by motion picture studios for providing a link to a Web site that contained the DeCSS code, which can be used to defeat the industry-standard DVD copy protection system enabling movies to be played on a Linux-based operating system. After losing at the trial level, the magazine publisher appealed, trying to preserve his right to link to sites without being held responsible for everything on those sites.
Unfortunately, the federal courts in these cases did not uphold the First Amendment rights of these publishers. In the 2600 case, the appellate court circumscribed traditionally accepted fair-use rights by declaring that these rights did not apply to the most convenient, highest-quality formats available to consumers. These examples of the content community successfully threatening and hauling into court individuals seeking to exercise traditional free speech rights demonstrate how the DMCA is flawed, and has tipped the copyright balance in a damaging way against traditional fair-use rights.
Given the breadth of the DMCA, the fair-use rights of the public at large also are at risk. From the college student who photocopies a page from a library book or prints an article from a newspaper's Web site for use in writing a report, to the newspaper reporter excerpting materials from a document for a story, to the typical television viewer who records a broadcast program for viewing at a later time, we all depend on the ability to make limited copies of copyrighted material without having to pay a fee or obtain prior approval of the copyright owner.
In fact, fair-use rights to obtain and use a wide array of information are essential to the exercise of First Amendment rights. The very vibrancy of our democracy is dependent upon the information availability and use facilitated by the fair-use doctrine.
Yet, efforts to exercise those rights increasingly are being threatened by section 1201 of the DMCA, which created the new crime of circumvention. Section 1201 (a)(1), for example, prohibits unauthorized access to a work by circumventing an effective technological protection measure used by a copyright owner to control access to a copyrighted work. Because the law does not limit its application to circumvention for the purpose of infringing a copyright, all types of traditionally accepted activities may be at risk. Any action of circumvention without the consent of the copyright owner is made criminal.
Consider the implications. A time may soon come when what is available for free on library shelves will only be available on a pay-per-use basis. It would be a simple matter for a copyright owner to impose a requirement that a small fee be paid each time a digital book or video documentary is accessed by a library patron. Even the student who wants even the most basic access to only a portion of the book to write a term paper would have to pay to avoid committing a crime.
The day is already here in which copyright owners use "click on" licenses to limit what purchasers of a copyrighted work may do with it. Some e-book licenses, for example, prohibit the reader from reading the book out loud. Some go so far as to make it a violation of the license to even criticize the contents of a work, let alone to make a copy of a paragraph or two.
To counter this emerging threat to traditionally accepted fair-use values, Congress must rewrite the law. We should begin by revising section 1201, which is at the heart of the Felten and 2600 magazine litigations, and which can be used to keep library patrons from copying even a paragraph from a book without making a separate payment.
The only conduct that should be declared criminal is circumvention for the purpose of infringing a copyright. That approach would provide adequate protection for copyright owners without abridging the legitimate fair-use rights of consumers, libraries, educators and other users.
For over 150 years, the fair-use doctrine has helped stimulate broad advances in scientific inquiry and education, and has advanced broad societal goals in countless other ways. In this emerging digital era, we need to return to first principles. We need to achieve the balance that should be at the heart of our efforts to promote the interests of copyright owners while respecting the rights of information consumers. We need to rewrite the law for the benefit of society as a whole before all access to information is irreversibly controlled. In short, we need to reaffirm fair use.
Rick Boucher represents Virginia's Ninth Congressional District.

To me it seems that those who are happy in this world are better and more lovable people than those who are not.
Samuel Butler
The commonwealth of Venice in their armory have this inscription: "Happy is that city which in time of peace thinks of war."
Robert Burton
Goodness does not more certainly make men happy than happiness makes them good.
Walter Savage Londor
A man is not rightly conditioned until he is a happy, healthy, and prosperous being; and happiness, health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with his surroundings.
James Allen
This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy.
Susan Polis Schutz
Those who weep for the happy periods which they encounter in history acknowledge what they want; not the alleviation but the silencing of misery.
Albert Camus
Art is like masturbation. It is selfish and introverted and done for you and you alone. Design is like sex. There is someone else involved, their needs are just as important as your own, and if everything goes right, both parties are happy in the end.
Colin Wright
How intolerable people are sometimes who are happy and successful in everything.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
I feel it is through prayer, meditation, and dedicated service that world peace can take place. Each individual has to try to make others happy, for it is only through happiness that we can have peace.
Sri Chinmoy
The unhappy are egotistical, base, unjust, cruel, and even less capable of understanding one another than are idiots. Unhappiness does not unite people, but separates them.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
Happy he who far from business, like the primitive are of mortals, cultivates with his own oxen the fields of his fathers, free from all anxieties of gain.
One great reason why clergymens households are generally unhappy is because the clergyman is so much at home or close about the house.
Samuel Butler
The Cross is not the terrible end of a pious happy life. Instead, it stands at the beginning of community with Jesus Christ. Whenever Christ calls us, his call leads us to death.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Let your intentions be good - embodied in good thoughts, cheerful words, and unselfish deeds - and the world will be to you a bright and happy place in which to work and play and serve.

MegaUpload extradition hearing 'likely' delayed to July
From the start, the MegaUpload case promised to be one of those long-running courtroom fights -- and that's exactly what it is turning into.
Anne Toohey, a lawyer working for the commissioner of police in New Zealand, said in court today that there is a "high likelihood" that the extradition hearing to determine whether MegaUpload founder Kim DotCom and several other company managers can be extradited to the United States will be delayed until July, according to a report by MSN in New Zealand.
If postponed, it will mark the second time the case has been pushed … Read more

Large Walnut Case VCD00103
I paired this storage case with the golden rosewood & boxwood Yugoslavia set (King 3.875"). The wood colorings of the board and pieces pair together perfectly. A surpise bonus of wooden checkers came with this storage board too. I am also pleased that the drawers are deep enough for all the pieces (even with the drawer organizer I added). The craftsmanship of the board and cabinet is quite nice, although the board I received has a minor flaw along the decorative inlay in one small place. The ...

How to Handle a Virtual Job Interview
Five tips to ensure a webcam interview goes well.
Basically, the same rules apply whether an interview is in-person or online. You should conduct yourself in the same professional manner. But there are a few other things to consider with regards to technology. Use these tips to make sure you appear as approachable through a webcam as you would in-person.
[See The Best Jobs of 2012.]
1. Get your technology ready. These days, most computers come with webcams. Make sure to test yours out before your interview, so that you have time to invest in a better camera if yours isn't up to par, or to adjust the lighting so the interviewer can see you.
Depending on what video platform the employer plans to use, you may need to install additional software, like Skype or ooVoo. After installing it, test it out by calling a friend who also has webcam capabilities. This can help you pinpoint issues with sound or voice quality, and you can take care of them prior to trying to impress the hiring manager.
2. Dress for the camera. Not every type of clothing renders as well on camera as it does in real life. Patterns tend to appear jumbled and may be an eyesore, so stick to plain colors. If the camera washed out your features during your test run, wear colors that complement your skin type, and wear a little extra makeup if you're a woman. Just don't go overboard—you want to look natural, and sometimes that requires a little extra effort for the camera.
[See 7 Ways to Use Email to Nab a Job.]
3. Remove distractions. Make sure that your pets and your children are in a different room when it comes time for your interview. Shooing your cat off your keyboard mid-sentence kills the flow of the conversation. Make plans to have the kids and pets cared for while you are on the interview to avoid all noise distractions and interruptions.
Don't forget to look for visual distractions behind you on screen. A messy room, the corner of your bed, and busy walls distract the interviewer and appear unprofessional. A neutral-colored, blank wall or a tidy office-like environment work best.
4. Do a dry run. In addition to simply checking that your technology works beforehand, it may be helpful for you to have a mock interview with a friend via webcam. This can help you adjust your volume (or talk speed) to ensure the interviewer can hear and understand you well.
[See 5 Things Not to Say In a Job Interview.]
5. Look directly into the camera. We have the tendency to look at our monitor when using the computer, but if you are looking at the monitor while on a webcam, the viewer perceives that you are looking away or at something else. Look directly into the camera during the interview to give a sense of eye contact.
It's also a good idea to practice some of the same habits you would for a traditional job interview. Dress professionally, and do your research on the company prior to the interview. Review commonly asked interview questions, as well as those that require a bit of finesse to answer so that you're never tongue-tied.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Businesses sharply reduced orders for machinery and other core capital goods in January after a tax credit expired, pushing U.S. factory orders down by the largest amount in 15 months.
Even with the decrease, orders are near pre-recession levels.
The Commerce Department said Monday that factory orders fell 1 percent in January. Investment in a category considered a proxy for business investment fell 3.9 percent, the biggest decline in a year. This followed a big increase in December, the final month businesses could take advantage of a one-year investment tax break.
Orders totaled $462.6 billion in January, 37.7 percent above the recession low hit in March 2009 and only 4.6 percent below the previous orders peak set in June 2008. Manufacturing has been one of the bright spots in the recovery.
Durable goods are products expected to last at least three years, such as appliances, cars, machinery and airplanes. Orders tend to sharply fluctuate from one month to the next. But the overall trend in orders has increased since the recession ended nearly three years ago.
Strong auto sales and growing business investment in machinery and other equipment have been keeping factories busy and helping the economy grow.
U.S. factory activity has grown steadily since the recession ended 2 ½ years ago, as measured by the Institute for Supply Management. The trade group of purchasing managers said the pace of growth slowed slightly in February.
About 9 percent of the nation's jobs are in manufacturing. But last year, factories added 13 percent of new jobs. And in January, about one-fifth of the 243,000 net jobs the economy created were in manufacturing.
The government will release a crucial report Friday on February job growth.
The economy grew at an annual rate of 3 percent in the final three months of last year. A forecasting panel of the National Association for Business Economics said last week that the economy should grow 2.3 percent this year.

Since the screen maintains a constant height and is infinitely adjustable in width, NTSC Video format images (1.33:1 aspect ratio) can be easily achieved to accommodate various source materials. In the closed position, the screen case is only 19" long and weighs 5 pounds.
The Da-Lite Pico Screen comes standard with Video Spectra 1.5 surface.

The Household Shaman
Stewart Blackburn
Having learned some of the tools of shamanism, how do we put these skills and principles into practice in our daily lives? This workshop will spend a day each on the shaman in the kitchen, the living room, the bedroom, the garden and on the roof. By communicating with the spirits of nature, using the astonishing powers of the subconscious and simply being conscious of our surroundings and feelings we can change what needs changing and savor what we already have to enjoy. This is about creating our lives with greater skill, love and pleasure in all that we do. And we'll get out of "the house", too, with adventures to some of the magnificent places here, meet other shamans, and feel into the powerful energies of this beautiful, volcanic isle.

Simple question: Where is he? This guy was supposed to be a stud. Are we not throwing to him? We have some good talent on offense. Its being wasted
Demarcus Robinson is a possession receiver who goes up and fights for a ball. We may never utilize him when we don't take risks.
Seems like some starters need to earn playing time from what I saw today! It's Great to be a Florida Gator!
If he was at any other school, he'd be getting legitimate looks. At UF, we suffocate offensive skill players. The fact that our biggest playmakers the last few years have been hybrid/flex TE's who were former QB's speaks volumes about our inability to play offense straight up. We recruit the likes of Ahmad Fulwood, Demarcus Robinson, etc., and ask them to block so that we can run gadget plays.
