To mark IDC Herzliya's 20th anniversary, we spent a day following Prof. Uriel Reichman, IDC's founder and president, and Jonathan Davis, VP for External Relations, around its delightful campus.
A few months ago, football's New York Jets willingly accommodated Jewish fans by moving their home opener from the evening to the early afternoon of the same day. That evening – Yom Kippur – would have presumably found thousands of the Jets faithful in synagogue and not at the Meadowlands or glued to their television sets.
This altruistic act – moving the game out of prime time – speaks volumes about the Jets' sensitivity to Jewish sensibilities (perhaps it even propelled them to a successful season), to the influence of politicians and civic leaders to cause a commotion over trivialities, and to our sense of acceptance in general society.
From their perspective, it was a most decent and generous act. From our perspective, though, it is less salutary, and represented a triumph of Orthopraxy over Orthodoxy.
While Orthodoxy literally means "correct belief" but in actuality encompasses an entire range of thought and behavior that is regulated by Torah, Orthopraxy ("correct action") is much more limited in scope, requiring only the adherence to certain behavioral norms without any semblance of philosophical commitment to the system from which such behavioral norms emerged.
Obviously, some of the obsession with sports is nothing less than silliness; who wins or loses – or even plays – does not matter at all in the real world, and sports and other forms of entertainment are just diversions from the more significant endeavors in which we are engaged.
What happens, then, when the diversions become the essence, or at least a critical component, of a person's life – so much so that one's thoughts on Yom Kippur might have otherwise been on the game and not on life, family, health, sustenance and the fate of the world?
That is a sad commentary on the spiritual state of some of our fellow Jews, and begs the question: Is it any less contemptible to spend three hours on erev Yom Kippur fascinated by grown men pounding each other in pursuit of moving an oval-shaped pigskin across a goal line than it would be to do the same on Yom Kippur night?
Not really.
The only difference is that there would be no technical violation of the rules of Judaism to so while away one's time on erev Yom Kippur. Nonetheless, the broader and more crucial questions are: Where was the person's head, and heart, at that most solemn time? Where were his thoughts? Were they on repentance and introspection – a matter of the soul? Or were they just on weathering the impending 25-hour fast – a matter of the body?
The answer is clear, as it was in Isaiah's time when he decried the insincerity of fasting without repentance, of the tendency of some Jews to underscore some deeds and not others because none was internalized as the will of Hashem or as divine service:
"They pretend to seek Me every day, they pretend to desire knowledge of My ways . they inquire of Me about righteous laws, as if they desire the nearness of God" (Isaiah 58:2).
The Orthoprax are an informal, incognito group of unknown size and scope who, for the most part, practice halachic norms but do not really believe in God (or that He chose us as the nation that would carry His moral message to mankind) or understand what they are doing. They might not even believe in the divine origin of the Torah, but identify themselves with the Orthodox community for social, ethnic, cultural or even aesthetic reasons. We usually do not know who they are – after all, it is a matter of the heart – but we do know how and where to find them.
They are the Jews who will come to shul – but barely daven. They will perfunctorily mouth a few words here and there while engaged in a persistent but likely not-very-stimulating conversation with their neighbors (people they would not talk to outside of shul for more than five minutes the rest of the week).
No wonder the Zohar (Parshat Terumah) labels people who talk in shul as atheists; they sit in the House of God but are oblivious to His presence. The words of the davening are either unfamiliar to them or do not resonate with them. Their only contribution to decorum is the occasional shushing of their children, a vulgar act of hypocrisy that, as Faranak Margolese noted in her book Off the Derech, is a major factor in turning off children to the life of Torah.
The Orthoprax attend shul because it is a social expectation, and their conduct in shul reflects it.
They are the Jews who are nominally shomrei Shabbat – they would never drive to shul, for example – but they will look for ways to swim or play tennis or baseball on Shabbat or encourage their children to do so, or leave the television on (or have the ubiquitous housekeeper turn it on) or read business newspapers on Shabbat, or perhaps even sneak in a business phone call or two when no one is looking.
Their children will text each in stealth (texting being the preferred method of communication even between teenagers who are sitting next to each other). Their divine service is external; if no human being sees them sin, it is as if it hasn't happened.
That state of affairs was well known to Rabban Yochanan ben Zakai, who admonished his disciples that "their awe of Heaven should parallel their awe of men" (Berachot 28b), the latter being more pervasive and substantial. The Orthoprax will "observe" Shabbat – they will not mow their lawns or drive to the beach – but Shabbat as a day of communion with the Creator is almost non-existent.
They are the Jews who will dress the part – as if, indeed, there is such a thing as "Jewish dress" beyond tzitzit and kippah for men and modest clothes for all. But they will conduct their business without integrity, stealing, conniving, cheating Jew and non-Jew alike, underreporting their taxes, hondling with contractors after the work is completed, stiffing their employees of their due wages – and often professing that they are acting perversely for the glory of Torah or to benefit a favored charity.
The Orthoprax will do good works, but those are socially useful and divorced from any sense of divine worship.
Most recently, Orthopraxy underlies such phenomena as the female clergy, the Partnership Minyanim (in which women chant portions of the davening, and a quorum of both ten men and ten women are needed to begin services), and the integration of Christians into special worship services.
These innovations blur or cross the line that defines halachic practice, and all, on some level, conflate self-worship with divine worship. All seek to make halacha "user friendly" and to render the Torah into putty that can be molded as the user desires – the Torah as akin to the American Constitution, which, Thomas Jefferson warned, could be twisted and shaped by unscrupulous judges "as an artist shapes a ball of wax."
Note how the proliferation of Orthopraxy transcends all the traditional (and artificial) divisions in Orthodox life. It compasses right wing and left wing, modern, centrist and yeshivish, haredi and non-haredi alike. And one might well contend that all the deviations listed above trample on the halacha and the sacred institutions of Jewish life, and therefore strip the "ortho" out of that "praxy" – they are not correct practices at all. But that contention is only partially true.
There are those of us who have become quite proficient – crafty is a better word – in manipulating the sources, in finding obscure opinions that, interpreted innovatively, tend to justify precisely what we want to do. Such people no longer desire to ascertain the will of God, but rather to satisfy their own inclinations while remaining in "technical" compliance with halacha, very broadly construed. It is as if they have transformed the Almighty into a divine caddy who carries for us a bagful of clubs known as "halacha," and they reserve the right to remove any club when they so desire, and use them any way in which they desire. Most lacking is the concept of the Jew as the servant of God.
The Orthoprax wish to remain part of the community, relying on general notions of tolerance and Western concepts of religion as a "private matter." And they do remain part of the community – often integral parts of the community – but a community no longer defined by commitment to the fundamental principles of Judaism, by subservience to God, or by eternal norms and values.
It is a social community, ethnically based and often geographically defined, but not a covenantal community. It is a community in which people perform actions that are roughly similar, but their hearts are not united. We certainly retain common enemies – Ahmadinejad is uninterested in these fine distinctions – but the nation of Israel should stand for something greater than that some evil people hate us.
Is there a value in Orthopraxy – in remaining part of a community of behavioral norms even if the philosophical commitment in lacking? Some point to a cryptic passage in the Yerushalmi, and in the Pesikta, citing, in Hashem's name: "Would that they abandon Me and still observe My Torah!" As some explain, it is therefore better to observe the mitzvot even with a lack of faith than to observe only if fully committed. Undoubtedly, there is some merit to this – at least the individual practitioner remains tethered to the Jewish community, however tenuously. But that understanding is grievously flawed.
Better understood, the passage (a rhetorical question) seems to be admonishing us that it is impossible to abandon God and still observe the Torah for long; we can indulge ourselves for a time, but eventually even the practice of mitzvot will wither without an internal commitment.
Or Chazal are teaching us stages of development: people may begin the observance of mitzvot without a full ideological commitment, or must continue even if such commitment occasionally wanes – but eventually commitment and practice must coalesce, and the observance of mitzvot must mature from mere deeds to the development of the complete Torah personality. If not, then our divine service remains stunted, and not a little phony.
Worse, our youth are very sensitive to this double game, and some become disenchanted. They internalize the corrupt idea that in Judaism externals count for everything and sincerity for nothing. Like Esav asking his father halachic questions in a fatuous attempt to demonstrate his piety, our children can learn to play the adult game just as well as we can: emptily mouth the words of tefilla, read parsha sheets at the Shabbat table while clueless to what they are reading, or internalize the idea that the most harmful aspect of sin is not the sin itself but getting caught. Once learned, that approach is not easily forgotten, until the child either finds better role models or discards his commitment entirely.
There is a bright side to all this, or at least elements of comfort. The rise of Orthopraxy is on some level just a reflection of the human condition. The criticism applies to everyone, bar none. We are all flawed and all sinners, and the revelation of the flaws of public figures – even religious figures – is usually just a matter of time.
"For there is no man so wholly righteous on earth that he [always] does good and never sins" (Kohelet 7:20) – and yet we are still stunned and shaken when it happens.
We must distinguish, though, between personal frailties and systemic breaches. The "righteous" sinner (an oxymoron, but bear with me) stumbles because of human nature – an inability to control his instinctual drives – but confesses his sins, admits his guilt and does not seek to rationalize his wrongdoing.
There is, however, a "wicked" sinner, as well, who protests his innocence, who claims he has been misunderstood, who defends his actions on grounds that others are doing it, or, worst of all, that what he did is not sinful at all because the halacha changed, or should change, or he found an arcane but lenient source allowing him to do what he wants to do. The former is the position in which most of us find ourselves, and which is addressed by the commandment of repentance; the latter is a systemic violation for which there is no simple rectification. It is an act of spiritual gerrymandering by the sinner who has carved out for himself exemptions from halacha.
How do we triumph over Orthopraxy and reconnect our divine service to God? We can – must – infuse our mitzvot with a recognition of their divine imperative by returning to fundamentals. We should study ourselves, and teach our children, not only "how" we do things but also "why." We all must learn the details of the mitzvot – from Shabbat to Pesach, from kashrut to monetary integrity, from the laws of Chanukah to the laws of Tisha B'Av – but also the framework of those mitzvot, how they combine to create a faithful, moral, decent servant of Hashem.
We must refine our davening so that – as Chazal ruled – it is better to say less with kavanah (a concentrated focus) than more without kavanah, and lose the notion that our prayer obligation is satisfied through the daily recitation of a certain quota of words. We must restore a sense of reverence and sanctity to the shul, or stay outside until we are ready. And before performing any mitzvah, we must pronounce, figuratively if not literally, that we are "ready and prepared to fulfill the commandment of our Creator."
Kabbalat HaTorah (the acceptance of the Torah) required naaseh v'nishma – the commitment "to do" preceded the commitment "to learn." It preceded it, but did not vitiate it. Naaseh cannot endure unless there is an ongoing nishma – and Talmud Torah must encompass not only what we should do but also what we should think and how we should feel.
The greatest of all orthodoxies – those correct beliefs that govern our lives – is, then, humility – humility that will enable us to absorb the divine values of Torah and not those of modern man, and recreate a nation of thinking, rational, wise, intelligent, good and ethical servants of God, a light unto the nations.

Golden presents a compelling saga of poor but determined immigrants who fled pogroms and harsh conditions in their homelands for a better life in a land of opportunity.
It seems to us that while the Jewish entitlement to the land of Israel transcends the Holocaust, the Jewish experience during that tragic time is the most solid of foundations for these "national rights."
Too many self-styled civil rights activists seemed determined to force, by their relentless pressure, an indictment regardless of what an investigation might turn up.

Unrest in YESHA and J'm helps Abbas and Abdullah defuse anger, gain politically and appear moderates
A "Shliach" means to do acts with complete devotion and dedication in order to help bring Moshiach.
The pogroms in Chevron took place eighty five years ago, in 1929; the Holocaust began seventy-five years ago in 1939; the joint attack of Israel's neighbors against the Jewish State of Israel happened sixty-six years ago… yet, world history of anti-Semitism did not stop there, but continues until today. Yes, the primitive reality of Jews […]
"We don't just care for the children; we make sure they have the best quality of life."
"Why do people get complacent with the things they're told?"
There is a certain unwordliness to the pope's call for a two-state solution, an obliviousness to the reality on the ground.
One can't only take; one must give as well. Giving – not taking – is the essence of the righteous person.
Much of what we know about 19th century Orthodoxy is false, including the provenance of the term Orthodox.
A president who today used the language of FDR or JFK would be derided. If he were a candidate, the media elites would bury his chances of winning the election. He would be a laughing stock to the aimless young people whose uninformed opinions on public affairs seem to matter more than they should.
With the constant drumbeat of articles about "Orthodox" female rabbis appearing in the media almost weekly – essentially the same articles making the same points to the same eager audience, all to make the phenomenon of such "rabbis" seem commonplace – it is important to take a step back and examine how we arrived at this destination.
The Wall Street Journal last month featured a front-page article titled "After These Jewish Prayer Services, Things Come 'To Life' at Open Bar," with the sub-heading, "To Woo Worshippers, Synagogues Compete with Food and Booze."
In the wake of the presidential election, American Jews must once again ask a fundamental question that seems to defy both societal trends and a clear resolution: why do Jews overwhelmingly support the Democratic candidate, year after year, election after election?
The notion of the "Reagan Democrat" is one cliché that should be permanently retired.

Victoria Beckham in R13 Skinny Jeans in Black Marble with Rip
Victoria Beckham was spotted at The Shoppes at the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore for an event for her RTW collection. The designer kept to her current aesthetic of pairing distressed jeans with cleaners pieces. She chose a pair of R13 Skinny jeans in Black Marble with Rip and a tank and jacket from her line, then a pair of suede pumps to finish it off.
I have been trying to figure out these jeans since way back when Victoria started wearing them in February during fashion week. She did an alteration to them, which was adding a patch under the tear of the left knee, that was throwing me off. With her finally styling them with a tucked shirt, the R13 details on the waist are front and center to give it away. These are an older style, but you can click here to purchase R13 from SHOPBOP.
Victoria Beckham in R13 Kate Skinny Jeans in Orion Black
Victoria Beckham was spotted running some errands in New York. The designer wore her R13 Kate Skinny jeans in Orion Black with a ribbed polo and a pair of Alaia boots.
Victoria has this way of mixing distressed jeans with shirts that I would normally not think would work very well together. This polo is very clean and polished compared to the jeans, but somehow works in a very Victoria way. What do you think of her look here? You can click here to purchase these jeans from SHOPBOP for $345.
Victoria Beckham in R13 Kate Skinny Jeans in Orion Black
Victoria Beckham was spotted arriving back into Los Angeles, California at LAX Airport. The designer wore a pair of R13 Kate Skinny Jeans in Orion Black with some red suede pumps and a coat from her own line.
I can see Victoria wearing R13 more and really favoring the brand. They make washes that are not too pristine and always have a sense of grit to them. They are washes that we have seen Victoria favor many times when featured here on DenimBlog. Whether it be from her own line or others. Click here to purchase these jeans from Saks for $325.
The A-2 Flight Jacket by R13
When it comes to bomber jackets, denim is not usually the top choice as fabric. It can lean towards the dated very easily when it is, but R13 has found a way to make it feel of this time and cool again with their new A-2 Flight Jacket.
Keeping the slight worn vintage aesthetic and cool essence of the brand, the style can take the ordinary look to a vibe of its own. What do you think of this new jacket? Click here to purchase this jacket now from SHOPBOP.

November 28, 2014
MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Milk from the shuttered Golden Guernsey plant in Waukesha will be distributed to the needy throughout the state.
The 83-year-old dairy processor closed abruptly Jan. 5, leaving more than 100 people without jobs and making schools scramble to line up new milk suppliers.
The Los Angeles private equity firm that bought Golden Guernsey in 2011, OpenGate Capital, sought Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection in a Delaware court.
The products were donated to Milwaukee-based Hunger Task Force. Spokeswoman Dana Hartenstein said Tuesday they are still trying to determine exactly how much milk and other products like cottage cheese and yogurt is still fresh, but there will be enough for outside the Milwaukee area.
Officials hope to get help from trucking companies for deliveries in Madison, Eau Claire, La Crosse and Green Bay.

Daimler recalling Freightliner, Western Star trucks
Truckers News Staff | March 8, 2012
Daimler Trucks North America is recalling more than 103,000 of its Class 8 trucks manufactured between 2006 and this year, it said in a notice to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The recall is to fix an engine fuel line that could be damaged during maintenance, NHTSA said. "The pump to rail high pressure fuel line support system is sensitive to assembly torque and may be damaged during service work," NHTSA said. "The line supports may loosen, potentially leading to fuel line cracking and a fuel leak." The leaked fuel could be ignited resulting in a fire, the agency added.
Included in the recall are Freightliner 114SD, Business Class M2, Cascadia, Century, Columbia and Coronado models; Sterling 9500; and Western Star 4700, 4900 and 6900 models, mostly covering model years 2006-2013.
The recall also involves 428 Detroit DD13 and DD15 and DD16 engines sold to other vehicle manufacturers.
The company said no accidents or injuries have resulted from the reported defect.
DTNA will notify owners and replace, where necessary, the fuel line support system for free at a DTNA authorized service facility, the company said. Owners may call (800) 547-0712 for information.
Owners may call NHTSA vehicle safety hotline at (888) 327-4236 and reference recall campaign number 12C-2.

David Cameron: "I'm a localist"
If there's anyone out there still saying "give me one good reason to vote Conservative", read this. David Cameron has committed himself to a radical devolution of power: elected mayors, elected police chiefs, local referendums, pushing jurisdiction down from the regional quangos. Hurrah! In fact, I'll go further: Calloo Callay!
Alright, it's not 100 per cent of what we localists were asking for. We're still some way away from self-financing councils. There remain glitches and inconsistencies: dictating from the centre that there should be no council tax rises, telling local councils how often to collect the bins. Still, this is the most decentralist agenda ever embraced by any Opposition leader; and that, surely, is worth something.

Shadow Soul part 2I pull into the school parking lot and park in my usual spot, toward the back of the gym under the roof of the exit doors. Pulling the keys out of the ignition. I put the keys in my pocket and pull off my helmet."Kira where here" I touch her hand so she can loosen her grip on my shoulder, she brings her head up from in between my shoulder blades"Sorry loke" she climbs off my bike and hands me my extra helmet."It's ok Kira...i forgot you hate riding on bikes in rain" I pat her shoulder to reassure her, I open the seat of my bike and fish out are school bags."Come on lets go get dry and get ready for class" I close and lock my bike seat and head into the school.Stepping out of the boys bathroom dry and clean I walk to my locker where my friend 's Rem and Ace are waiting for me."Hey man" Ace gives me a high five and Rem smirks and fist bumps my out stretched fist"ok man how the heck do you get your hair to look that good...i mean I have to spend at leat an hour on my hair to
Shadow Soul part 1Prologue"RUN!!" I hear my mother yell to me as my father scoops up my younger sister and runs for the open door. "loke!" my mother pleads but my focus is not on my mother but the man standing behind her. The man raises a sword above his head and brings it down on my mother. "AHH- run loke!" its a command this time but I can't think, as I watch my mother's lifeless body slip to the floor."Mama?..Mama" I look down at my mother as her pale gray-blue eyes look up at me. "LOKE!!!" I hear my father's voice but I don't see him my vision is blurred, "mama?" I plead before something rips me away from my mother. I feel a hand tighten around my waist as im hoisted over someone's shoulder. "We have to move Loke!" it's my father and he's the one pulling me away from my mother. My vision is becoming blurry and dark, but I'm able to make out my mother's shape as it slowly becomes surrounded by shadows.Her body is surrounded by the shadows and it's getting harder to see her as we move

It's a screenshot-heavy update for Super Smash Bros Brawl today. I get the feeling that Sakurai may be struggling for updates, because he wants to tell us about every mode in the game (again?). He's all about modes this guy, always with the modes.
Brawl main menu.
Today we can see what's in the Vault section. The vault is mostly where you store stuff you've collected or saved while playing the game, like trophies, stickers, replays and screenshots. It also houses things like the Stage Builder, and the Masterpieces (Virtual Console demos).
Vault menu.
Modes upon modes.
Watchin' the game, spittin' some tiles.

Has anyone else noticed that the thing in the challenge screen mentions swimming. As in the characters can SWIM.
EDD said:
Something's wrong. Above the coin launcher pic is another pic that wasn't on the DOJO! Weird.
Sonic Phantom said:
Well, this isn't too bad. At least he's showing us stuff that we would collect in the game.
ToTaLgAmEr said:
I don't get it, they're just telling us what we already know. Not that exciting.
wiistorm13 said:
The chronicle mode seems fun, it shows you the old school. That's what I like about the trophies.
YoshLee said:
Not the best update, they pretty much just told us everything we knew other than chronicle mode. Oh well, guess we wait for tomorrow's update.
DragonFoxCoon said:
Swim distance? Does that mean I can drown Sonic?
Nintendoof said:
Yes, I noticed that myself.. SWIM?
bored said:
Hey, I think swim distance is probable how far you can jump underwater before dying, like the water on Melee's Mario target contest. I saw the soccer ball again.
bored said:
NO Wait! They can swim, but only for a limit amount of time. It's in a video in the Iwata asks section.
DKX900 said:
I've always wanted to drown a rat *cough cough pikachu*. I mean come off it, is there going to be a cycling competition as well? Maybe water features in some of the adventure levels and its just like the "F Zero Race Track" trophy in melee. I don't know. We'll have to wait for the update.
Davinator said:
Damn, I assume it's another stadium event like HRC but you have to go as far as you can swimming.
Aeth said:
So this Vault seems to just be a collaboration of all the previous information we were given all in one place for easier organization. Not to sound rude, but what is the Trophy Hoard and Sticker Center for anyway? Just a place to make funny pictures? The first Stage looks like it came from the actual original Donkey Kong game. The second Stage looks like a labyrinth of stairs (which might be used for either quick saves of easier KO's. Swimming Challenge? Well in the The Summit stage if you fall into the water your character can swim back to the summit so I'm guessing there is an event like the Home-Run Contest except for swimming. Do you ever notice that none of the Team Alloy Gameplay features the Red Alloy member? We've seen Mario and other characters fighting Blue, Yellow, and Green yet no character has been seen fighting Red Alloy. Interesting thing they said about the replays is that you can focus on one character while watching the replay, this brings all new possibilities to the people who would want to do a "History of Brawl". A chronicle of every single Nintendo game? Wow, that must have taken quite some time to gather. Most likely a new game appears as a character from that game is seen in the game (either through Gameplay, Trophy, or Sticker), and most likely Sonic and Metal Gear Solid games are, as Dojo states it "not be displayed until the very end" of the list as they aren't part of the Nintendo franchise. I'll have to say, if they ever plan on making another Super Smash Bros game after Brawl, they are going to have to add stuff like Virtual Reality to it as Brawl is going to triumph almost every game before it, I'll even bet on it.
#1 Peach Fan said:
We already know all of this, but at least you can see where to store stuff. Not all that impressed but it's not too bad.
Aeth said:
EDD, if you look on the bottom of the post you'll notice that it was added to this post for fun.
smash fan x said:
Wii there be dojo updates past its Japan release?
Hyrule said:
Swimming has already been seen on the E For All demo videos. Characters can swim on some stages like Delfino Plaza and The Summit.
Hobbit said:
Sakurai's just killing time until the Japanese launch with random useless updates. Once Japan launches, we should be getting something more.
SSB4LIFE said:
What does swim distance mean? A new mode? Do you have to swim at some point in The Subspace Emissary? Cool.
Sonic Phantom said:
DFC, please don't bring that up.
The Crimson Artist said:
Shouldn't the Perry sticker show who it affects in that empty box in the lower right? Looks like Nintendo's being secretive. And the swimming is probably something in the subspace emissary, like an underwater area maybe? Why are they holding back when it's coming out in Japan in a few days?
Charlie said:
I'm really liking the stage builder, extends the re-playability more.
Dark Star said:
This may just mean movement in water, not actual swimming. EDD that was a picture from Riot Zone. Wii's world must have put it in as a joke.
Diddy Kong Lover said:
Swim Distance sounds like an event or an a single player thing, when will the cats (characters) be let out of the bag.
Keranu said:
lol, what is Riot Zone doing in there?
wii fanatic said:
Wow. Secrets being spilled on Wii World. How dare you!
lorgana said:
I found out how to swim 300 ft and get the trophy. You got to go to the stage pirate ship were you battle toon link and you can swim on this stage.

Concrete 519 October, 2012 - 17:29 | by fyl
I have previously written about various Content Management Systems. It case it wasn't already obvious, various choices are better suited for various tasks. That is, there is no one universally better one. In this post I want to add Concrete 5 to the list.
Calling it a CMS is probably incorrect. It is a tool for creating a web site. Unlike Drupal, ocPortal and such it is not a tool to allow you to have the unwashed masses contributing to the site.
Getting Organized with Zim14 June, 2011 - 15:08 | by fyl
I am playing with a notes package called Zim. It claims to be wiki-like which makes it pretty interesting.
The usual complaint about Wikis is that the syntax gets in the way. That is, you have to insert syntax (which is usually somewhat different in each Wiki) to get things done. Well, Zim has no syntax or, more accurately, you don't work with it or ever see it. Zim just uses it internally to offer the functionality. While you can't really call it a WYSIWYG, it's close and you don't have to do funny stuff to get the WYSIWYG features.
Did you ever use Wordstar or PCWrite?
Thinking About a Resource-Based Economy3 January, 2011 - 15:45 | by fyl
I have recently read Looking Forward and other writings by Jacque Fresco (http://www.TheVenusProject.com) and re-watched The Zeitgeist Addendum in an attempt to connect the dots regarding an alternative to the failing money-based economy. Fresco, in particular, is saying that we need to transition to a resource-based economy. While one needs to do a lot of reading to understand what this really means and why it could actually work (which I encourage), here is a short introduction so you can at least understand what I am talking about.

Literacy and Arts Festival 2014
ARTree will be there!
This Saturday at the Old Town Newhall Library, a collaborative festival sponsored by the SCV Education Foundation, will be held from 10am – 3pm. ARTree member Suzanne Ulloa, will be at our booth leading our memory collage activity, with help from the Saugus High Rotary Interact Club.
In its 8th year Santa Clarita's Literacy & Arts Festival offers the community an opportunity to explore, play, see, create and hear the different forms of arts and literacy. Surrounded by books, guests will be entertained by storytellers that include favorite authors and performers. On hand will be several art activities to let your imaginations run wild, music to enjoy and instruments to explore. Exhibits and interactive demos will highlight ways in which the arts are now being integrated in public schools throughout the Santa Clarita Valley.
On October 16th The ARTree completed our fall class series called The Many Faces Of Art, at the Santa Clarita Sports Complex. The classes offered a variety of materials and techniques to help students explore the human face in art. Each class began with a slideshow, providing insight into the artist whose works inspired the day's lesson. Classes included watercolors, plaster, pastels, collage, mixed media, ink, and even non-verbal facial expression, pictured here.

"Rizzoli & Isles" Subtext Recap (5.07): How to lose a guy in 10 days
When next Jane sees Maura she has disemboweled the mystery book, much to her chagrin. But it wasn't a rare book at all, it was a Frankenstein the victim made himself from various parts. Book talk quickly shifts to date talk, as Maura wonders again if she should cancel with Prof. Beard. Jane says no, but with about as much enthusiasm as Mama R's beige ensemble. Yep, click that counter because that's Cancellation No. 2.
Maura brings in the superhero literature professor to examine the mystery book. All the while it seems like she is grilling him as a potential beard replacement. Hey, you can't blame her. She hasn't even introduced Jane to this new one, and we all know it never hurts to have a backup.
But Frankie deems him unsuitable, because he says Maura can figure out whatever is hidden in the book in half the time he could. And sends this buckaroo packing unceremoniously. Finding the proper beard is a full-on family affair for the Rizzoli clan.
In this season's continued fuller focus on the supporting cast, Mama R meets Lt. Cavanaugh at the Dirty Robber for the break-up talk. Mama R tells him she got a fortune cookie that said "start over," so of course she is now changing her whole life. I know, as break-up reasons go this one hurts more than "it's not you, it's me."
But Mama R explains her rational (a little) bit better saying her whole life she had a man supporting her and now it is time to be like her daughter and find a woman. Wait, sorry, I totally misheard that. She wants to get to know who she is alone. Wait, maybe I didn't mishear that–it's just the woman she is looking for is herself. Lt. Cavanaugh is incredibly sweet and kind, considering his girlfriend just dumped him because of advice found inside a complimentary baked good that comes with your moo shu pork.
Jane and Korsak are watching one of their new suspects who has lawyered up. When the attorney walks in Jane recognizes him as Paddy Doyle's attorney. So, looks like someone is taking a road trip. She goes up to see Paddy to ask about their new suspect. Hey, so you think Jane can visit just any prison. Because Massachusetts isn't that far form New York. I'm sure we could find some sort of reason for her to visit the Litchfield Correctional Facility.
Her visit with Paddy becomes a de facto family therapy session as he asks about Maura because everyone knows Jane is the gatekeeper to everything about Maura. He helps Jane with some information about the suspect, and then asks for a favor in return. Quid pro quo. If it involves fava beans and a nice chianti say no, Jane.
Back at Boston PD, Maura runs into Frankie talking about Jane's return time. This automatically dings Maura's GFFR, and she says barely hiding the panic in her voice, "Jane's gone? W-w-when will she be back?" Easy now, it'll be OK. Remember when you went to that nerd conference for three days? You two can do this.
Frankie lets spill that Jane went to the penitentiary and Maura automatically knows that means Paddy. She tries to play it off like NBD LOL, but her twitching jaw muscle gives her away. Total side note: Love the dress.
Frankie and Korsak lead a surveillance sting on the suspect, who they released. It works, after a body slam or two. Meanwhile Jane returns and heads straight to Maura's office. She sits down with an "Anyway…." and Maura replies, "I know you saw Paddy."
Jane settles in for a big family talk. She tells Maura Paddy is being transferred to a supermax prison in California. And then she delivers the really big news – Paddy would like to see Maura before he leaves. Jane says she thinks Paddy has some things to get off his chest before he leaves, but it's totally up to Maura if she wants to listen.
But instead of making Maura think about her complex family dynamics, Jane's words make her think of the case. And she has her Dr. House moment when something clicks and the whole case is solved. Maura gets up without saying anything and speed walks to the lab leaving Jane to scramble behind her–like the puppy that she is.
Maura has solved the book's riddle, and it wasn't inside the book but on the book itself. He had written a confession about being part of a bombing in Dublin where people died on the page edges with a 19th Century technique called fore-edge painting. Maura and Jane exchange quickie congratulatory eye sex at solving the riddle. See, there most certainly can be academic superheroes.
Case now successfully cracked, Jane and Co. have called in a British investigator to hand over the bombing case to her. Frankie and Korsak commiserate over having such hot women like Jane and Maura and posh English-accent cop be out of their reach on account of The Gay.

Marinated artichokes
just read the post about the frozen artichokes. I have usually bought the canned artichokes in water. I love artichokes but have never bought the marinated kind. I am tempted by the large jar at Costco.
How do you use the marinated ones differently than the canned/frozen type (which is what my inlaws all use)?
The only way I've ever used marinated artichokes are in/on salads or on antipasti platters. I do like them that way. I believe there are some recipes using them, but they usually have quite a bit of oil on them.
I use them (from CostCo) in salads, chopped on pizza, in lasagna, in AntiPasti, in grilled sandwiches with cheese and meats, as an ingredient in tapinade and a wide range of other recipes. The puree nicely and add some excitement to dishes that might otherwise be somewhat mundane. I do sometimes use the canned varieties in much the same way as I do the marinated artichokes, depending on what flavor result I hope to achieve in the dish. I prefer to use fresh artichokes for stuffing and other types of preparations.
I will use them in a pasta if the pasta has a simple vinaigrette base and nothing else. Since they are marinated you have to be careful what you add them too.
Diced up they are great with some grated cheese and chopped olives on a toasted baguette, very good. I also like to mix them with some fresh grape tomatoes and olives halved and onions. Mix all in the same marinade the artichokes came in and then heat up right at the end and them top grilled chicken breasts with the veggies. Top all that on a nice toasted baguette or pasta and a great dinner.
Toss with some fresh vegetables and use the chokes and the liquid to make a simple easy dressing for some chopped romaine.
On Pizza is great!! A white sauce or red, some artichokes, cheese, chopped mushrooms and onions and a great pizza.
White pizza with shrimp and the artichokes is great too
Stir fry with grilled shrimp, some onions, olives, fennel and toss over lettuce for an amazing dinner salad.
Added them topped over poached COD with some capers, olives and roasted tomatoes for a simple topping to a fish poached in white wine.
The list goes on and on. Let me know if you like anything in particular. I use the frozen all the time for some things, but the jarred or canned for others. It is a shortcut that sometimes I just need but you can make some pretty descent food with it too...
Forgot sandwiches, sorry ... roast pork, beef or turkey with some chopped artichokes, onions and tomatoes, they are wonderful.
Also, roast them with some garlic and onion then puree with some herbs and it makes an amazing dip. I like to add some spinach or sometimes some mayo or sour cream to lighten it up. Perfect.
re: lvhkitty
the marinated ones are really covered in oil, so that's the primary thing you'll be rinsing off. i'd blot, so not to saturate the chokes any further (if that's possible?).
i know that humongo jar of marinated artichokes of which you speak. whenever you take some out, use a fresh fork or spoon and never your fingers, which will introduce bacteria or mold critters -- no matter how "clean" your hands are. ( i discovered this with a bottle of stuffed green olives.). try to leave as much "marinade" in the jar to keep the chokes covered.... and then use the marinade later for a salad or pasta dressing, or to marinate some canned and rinsed artichokes...or frozen ones.
there is a good recipe -- very popular-- for using those artichokes in a hot dip with parmesan, mayo, mozz cheese. when you use the marinated artichokes, cut down on some of the other fatty ingredients (e.g., mayo....). http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/523862
btw, as others above, i love them on pizza, and on fish with some capers and a little tomato. yummalicious.
re: lvhkitty
Absolutely, some of the flavor is already absorbed, definitely rinse or pat off the extra sauce.
The jarred grilled and marinated baby artichokes at bj's are INCREDIBLE...Not like the normal jarred artchokes in oil...WAy more flavorful . TRUST ME, you wont be dissapointed.
re: kchurchill5
CHicken and artiochokes...Just season chicken parts toss with the oil from the artichokes and artichokes and bake...deeeelish
re: italianagambino
Add some roasted red peppers too, agreed, simple good flavor.

I do this too. Try sprinkling the finished product with toasted pine nuts. It's all so easy and very impressive. I have been know to do this with a purchased, cooked chicken if I'm in a hurry.
Take your typical breakfast casserole recipe (eggs, sausage, cheese, etc.) and add chopped marinated artichokes, along with some sauteed peppers and onions. Delicious!
re: lvhkitty
lvhkitty, do try them with a firm, white-flesh fish, along with some capers, olive oil, and a little diced tomato (or sauce).
re: alkapal
Love that, a little white wine too :) Love that combo. Nice!
It is great with shrimp too over a bed of wilted spinach and sauteed mushrooms and toasted baguettes. One of my favorites.
re: kchurchill5
artichokes marry well with seafood. i'm so jealous of your abundance of fresh gulf seafood! even when i'm in fort myers it is not easy to find great seafood. i don't know why. fort myers used to have the greatest fresh shrimp! i guess there are more seafood places of all price levels in naples. do you know of any good places in fort myers?
ps, did you see my post about the old heidelberg? http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/6005...
re: lvhkitty
I make one with garlic plain yogurt and just 1/2 cup mayo some garlic onions and some roasted red peppers. Of course you have to have some cheese I used Pecorino romano and baked. I love traditional but this really was good. You could add spinach too but this was great.
I also make one where I chop very fine the artichokes and actually mash some just with a fork, add some fine chopped onions and roasted garlic and then mix with some roasted red pepper and a little parm. I bake for 20 minutes and serve over toasted baquettes and top with a mix of fine chopped tomatoes and calamata olives. It is great.
re: lvhkitty
The are great with just some sun dried also chopped mixed the two and spread on a toasted baquette or stuff a crimini mushroom and top with some feta or parm or any of your favorite cheese and bake. Simple and great.
Also mix with a few spoons of dried bread crumbs and feta cheese, sun dried and olives and stuff in a bonless chicken breast. Either is flat roll, or cut a pocket in and stuff. Bake. What a great filling.
Mix with pesto and also top on baguettes of use is as a base for a pizza. Then top with fresh mushrooms and tomatoes and cheese. Can't get much better. You can even use the boboli or premade pizza crusts or a canned crust. What ever you have. It is great.
Purre with chic peas, onions, and some herbs and top with chopped tomatoes and olives and serve with pita chips. Like a hummus.
With pasta, fresh tomatoes, grilled chicken, whole wheat pasta, roasted asparagus and onions. A little cream and broth, parmesan cheese and a great dinner.
