Why I chose not to program 'Klinghoffer' and still support it
Over the past week or so I've had many difficult exchanges with friends and family over social media around posts I've shared about the Metropolitan Opera's production of The Death of Klinghoffer. I've shared articles defending the production, reviews of its artistic merit, social critiques of what the controversy represents and even parallel experiences of the production in other cities.
Those who were convinced it was anti-Semitic remain firmly convinced. Those who believed the protests were just another example of right wing denial of any legitimate Palestinian narrative remain similarly unswayed.
Depressingly, this episode has only reinforced the worst stereotypes each side had of the other in the ongoing shouting-match over Israel (can we really call it a conversation at this point?). The Jewish general manager of the Met Opera has been compared to a Nazi sympathizer and a supporter of Hamas. I've read comparisons of the actions of those who opposed the performance of the opera to a "book burning of Adams' work."
By my rule of thumb, whoever calls his opponent a Nazi first, loses
By my rule of thumb, whoever calls his opponent a Nazi first loses — and it's hard to find any winners in this encounter.
My own feelings about the opera itself are mixed — I saw the film version created for Channel Four in the UK directed by Penny Woolcock in 2004. At the time, I was considering it for possible inclusion in the Washington Jewish Film Festival in my capacity as the Festival's director. I remember being entranced by the music, disturbed by its portrayals of history and touched by certain images that have stayed with me over a decade later — such as that of Klinghoffer's wheelchair sinking through the water after he has been murdered and thrown overboard.
I chose not to include the film for a number of reasons, some practical (opera on film is a tough sell) and some artistic/thematic. While I appreciated the aesthetic strengths of the work, it felt far too removed from its subject to be included in a Festival in which other films dealing with the Israel-Palestine conflict spoke with greater authenticity and authorial intimacy.
The work felt like the product of outsiders to the conflict
One cannot blame Klinghoffer's daughters for objecting to the opera — that is not their father up there (but neither should they have the last word). We are all products of our history, but the opera isn't really interested in why these people were affected in the ways they were. It is why the captain is in many ways the most interesting character, he is also a product of history, but its effects on his character are more subtle and his choices stem from a much more personal, interesting and humanely flawed place.The work overall, felt like the product of outsiders to the conflict, looking to illuminate the tragedies and universal lessons for both sides. Firsthand knowledge of course, isn't a prerequisite for great art, but when the subject is one that brings such passion along with it, one runs the risk — as Adams and his librettist Alice Goodman have certainly be accused — of naivety. That is why the work itself turns the characters themselves into archetypes more than real people, the terrorists are an extension of the chorus of exiled Palestinians and the Klinghoffers are extensions of the chorus of exiled Jews.
A friend I respect greatly wrote me, "folks flying planes into skyscrapers, dragging gay men to their deaths behind cars,etc? They get no inner lives." I simply can't agree. Their inner lives may leave them twisted and deranged, committing heinous acts because of the person they have become, but to deny that their inner lives are not worthy of some kind of artistic exploration is to go too far.
Why? Because to have that attitude is easy when you're talking about Hitler, Osama Bin-Laden or Pol Pot; but there are a lot of shades of grey between them and the historical rungs of the ladder that the Achille Lauro terrorists occupy.
To elevate Klinghoffer's murderers to the level of genocidal prime-movers is to engage in a false equivalency that blurs our understanding of evil. It runs the risk of a turning a tradition which takes the weighing of justice most carefully, into a shrill hyperbole.
So, my defense of the opera has to be couched in the acknowledgement that given my own opportunity to program it, I chose not to. I think it is probably fair to say that even if I had wanted to program it, given the controversy that already surrounded the work, I might have faced internal and external opposition that would have made including it unwise and impossible.
And it is that last acknowledgement that leaves me so unsettled.
Because what was at stake in this debate was not the production of this specific opera in this specific venue. It was the freedom of artists, Jewish and non-Jewish, Israelis and Palestinians, to engage with the most sensitive and provocative topics in their histories and create music, theater, dance and stories from them, and for arts presenters to provide audiences with the opportunity to see and judge for themselves the results.
I cannot share their belief that this opera constituted a threat to Israel's survival.
That is not a priority for many of the opponents of The Death of Klinghoffer. While there were some true arts supporters among the opera's opponents, for many others (among them, the organizing core), the opera was another front in the total war for Israel's survival. And while I can share their goal — that Israel survive — I cannot share their belief that this opera constituted a threat to that survival, or even that it was antagonistic to it (or for that matter, that its survival depends on a "total war" footing). I believe this as a Jew, as a Zionist, as a writer, and as someone who has first-hand knowledge of terrorism.
But by mounting such a large, public and compelling campaign against an opera that most people will never hear or see, a profoundly chilling wind has been blown across the landscape of Jewish culture specifically and American culture more broadly.
"Do we want another Death of Klinghoffer on our hands?"
In development offices and board meetings across the land, well-intentioned but misguided leaders will ask themselves when faced with the prospect of presenting potentially challenging and controversial material, "Do we want another Death of Klinghoffer on our hands?"
Only the most committed (and masochistic) will conclude that they are willing to risk it.

The sweet desserts of Berlin – aliya, yerida, and Zionism
Here is the thing about the Berlin Balagan and the Milky Moan. They have nothing to do with the city of Berlin or the Milky dessert.
The controversy has been simmering for some time. Young Israelis have been working to attain European passports so as to more easily leave Israel. Berlin is their most attractive and symbolically incendiary European destination. The thought that an Israeli could actively seek to live in the Land of the Holocaust sends shivers down Zionist spines.

4 points about doing politics on North American campuses
Cross-posted with ejewishphilanthropy.com
Image by Shay Charka
I have recently returned from an 8 city, 11 flight, 2 weeks' tour of campuses in North America – with 4 questions.
I was one of the Jewish Agency's Makom team running full-day workshops on "Gaza, Israel, and the Jews" for the staff of thirty Hillels. Our aim was to empower Hillel and campus leaders to frame constructive conversations about the Gaza Conflict by identifying pertinent questions (rather than institutional answers), and by defining a successful conversation as one that leads to a second conversation…

Gaza conflict – a letter to Temple Adas Israel, Sag Harbor
Dear Friends,
I remember when August would roll around in Sag Harbor, and our synagogue's Rosh Chodesh group meeting would focus on Tisha B'av (the 9th day of the month of Av) – the holiday that animates the Hebrew month of Av.
I would always frame the conversation by saying how out of sync the Jewish calendar felt with the Gregorian one. August is the height of summer fun – the beaches and BBQs, summer evening dresses and dinner parties. And in the Jewish calendar cycle Tisha B'Av represents the low point of the Jewish year. We sit on low chairs, we fast – in collective mourning for the destruction of Jerusalem and its Temples, the loss of Jewish sovereignty in the land of Israel, and so many other calamities that have befallen the Jewish people. For me, most years the sense of mourning feels forced.
This year, it felt real. We needed Tisha B'av, to give ritual expression to the collective pain that we are all feeling about the war with Hamas. To Full Post
Gaza conflict – three thoughts about the fighting
1. Good Guys, Bad tactics?
There was something of a meme that went around, asking the two key questions of Just War theory: Are we fighting the bad guys? and Are we fighting like good guys? I think I've realized that the first question is almost irrelevant, and often unhelpful.
It's irrelevant because while I may be sure that Hamas are the bad guys, so Hamas thinks it is Israel who are the bad guys. It is unhelpful because since we both reckon we're fighting the bad guys, we both tend to take the second question less seriously. To Full Post

The complexities of Gaza – film guide to "Precious Life"
In 2010 the Israeli journalist Shlomi Eldar made a documentary about a Gazan family that brings their baby for a life-saving transplant in an Israeli hospital. The movie is built with great sensitivity and an eye for painful irony and complexity galore.
Here Dr Raz Somech explains the story behind the film, at the Montreal Film Festival.
At one point the mother asserts that she would be happy if her child under treatment were to grow up to be a suicide bomber – to the horror of Eldar. As the full story unfolds, we learn of the difference between the mother's pronouncements for fear of Hamas reprisals, and her true respect and affection for Israel and its doctors. If these struggles were not enough, during the treatment, their doctor is called up for reserve duty – fighting in Gaza. For a full synopsis, read here.
For a community or campus wishing to delve into the human heart of the complexities of Israel and Gaza's desperate embrace, Precious Life is an excellent place to start.
We recommend providing free coffee at a nearby cafe after the screening, and putting these place-mats on each table. In this way discussion can be encouraged without being forced.
The guide was first created for the screening at JW3.

Gaza conflict 2014 – the Shorts
You may have noticed that we have been trying to post conversation-provoking statuses on our facebook page. Here are some of them in one document for your use. Feel free to post them on your own facebook pages, or to use them as short opening conversations at team or committee meetings.
Three thoughts on proportionality
Disproportionate attention
There is the feeling that the media and public response to the Gaza war is disproportionate to their response to every other conflict in the world. As thousands are slaughtered in Syria, all rage is directed to Gaza.
Part of me is surprised at the surprise. There is an antisemitism at the heart of Europe. There is an antisemitism at the heart of the Islamic world. Big whup. These facts don't dispel for me the deep agony I feel when a defender of Israel wishes us to be compared to a murderous dictator such as Assad. Even if the comparison is relatively favourable. That is not the kind of company we should be keeping.
It must not be a rhetorical question
This video of Israeli philosopher and consultant to the IDF Moshe Halbertal lays out all the key questions. Halbertal points out that "proportionality" is not about the death of combatants. It is about the death of civilians. As he puts it from 17:10 onwards: "Is the expected collateral killing proportional to the military advantage to be gained?"
So it's a really good question. It accepts that civilians might die in urban warfare. And it asks how many civilians is it "worth" killing in order to win the military advantage? It is the correct moral and philosophical question to be asked.
Halbertal's question must not be solely rhetorical. I believe we Israelis have been remiss at going ahead and trying to find an answer.
Are we really okay with the rationale: "We fired on the hospital/school because they fired at us from there: It is their fault that we fired back."? Well it certainly paints Hamas black, but it doesn't answer Halbertal's question.
What military advantage did we gain by firing back? Was that advantage worth the risk that we might slaughter some kids along the way?
It seems we are too easily appeased by Hamas' guilt to assess our own. It tortures me.
Desired disproportionality
If we want Palestinians to appreciate that violence against us does not pay, I believe we must also work behaviouristically to show that non-violence does pay.
If we are, as I am beginning to fear, responding disproportionately to Hamas violence, I believe we should be equally disproportionate in resopnding to all Palestinian non-violence. Any Palestinian who denounces violence, even in a mealy-mouthed way, should be ridiculously disproportionately rewarded. Abu Mazen, and his former Prime Minister and non-violent State-builder, Salam Fayyad, should have been treated as kings by our government. Every bona fide business established by the PA should receive outrageously generous subsidies from the Israeli government. Sweets should be thrown at every Palestinian kid who smiles at an Israeli.
At the same time I think we should be disproportionately generous to our amazingly non-violent Palestinian Israeli citizens. Forget trying to bring the education budget for Arab schools up to parity – it should be twice the size as the budget for Jewish schools. Don't fight for Arab Israelis to have the same house-buying subsidies as Jews – fight for them to have even bigger subsidies.
If we are okay with severely punishing Palestinians for the violence of their leaders, we should also be willing to seriously reward them for the opposite.
The Evening Blessings directed towards the Gaza Conflict
As I walked down the streets of Jerusalem this delightful, breezy July night, I passed two demonstrations supporting the soldiers of the IDF—one particularly dedicated to the Golani Brigade, which suffered so grievously this week. Two tangible reminders that the calm of Jerusalem masks the sorrow and the fear, the violence and the uncertainty of this war. And then I recited Ma'ariv, the evening service with its 23 blessings—through whose timeless words the prayers of a moment manifest.
The evening comes, and we reflect on a trying day, hoping that on another evening, sometime soon, the news will be better. Blessed are You, Lord, who brings on evenings.
The world "regrets," "condemns," "urges," and "demands," and airlines cancel their flights. Israel yearns not to be alone. Blessed are You, Lord, who loves His people Israel. To Full Post

A tough guy with soft hands
Boldin key figure in Ravens' surge to Super Bowl
NEW ORLEANS -- Kurt Warner still winces at the memory of the helmet-to-helmet shot Anquan Boldin absorbed in a 2008 game against the New York Jets.
Then with the Arizona Cardinals, Boldin was attempting to grab a pass from Warner in the end zone when he was knocked unconscious in a nasty collision with Eric Smith.
"It was the most vicious hit I've ever seen, up close and personal," Warner recalled Tuesday. "It made me think about retirement."
Boldin missed only two weeks, a testament to his grit and fearlessness. But the 6-1, 220-pounder wants to be known as more than simply a tough receiver.
"I look it as, I'm a football player," Boldin said. "Not so much a receiver."
Boldin has been a key figure in Baltimore's charge to the Super Bowl. After leading the Ravens with 65 receptions and 921 yards receiving during the regular season, he's got 16 catches for 276 yards and three touchdowns in the playoffs.
That's why stopping Boldin is a huge part of San Francisco's game plan in the Super Bowl.
"He's very determined to bring his team his championship," 49ers safety Donte Whitner said. "He's going up high to catch footballs and running past people to catch footballs. Strong after the catch, fearless. We'll have our hands full with him."
Boldin, 32, isn't afraid to cut across the field or challenge a safety by going deep. He can shrug off a hard hit, and also is an aggressive downfield blocker.
"It's hard to put into words Anquan's toughness," Warner said. "I've never been around a player that is as tough as he is. To be able to come back from what he went through in New York ... I've seen him many times being beat up, worn out, having nagging injuries, but he's got extreme mental toughness, too."
If Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco needs a first down in a clutch situation this Sunday, he might want to do follow the path Warner took when he had Boldin at his disposal.
"When we needed a spark, the first guy I'd look for is 81. Where's he at?" Warner said. "Cause he'll make those plays for us. If you're going into battle, that's the first guy you'd pick on your team because you know he's not going to shrink to the pressure, but is only going to rise up and get better in the most critical moments of the game."
In that injury-shortened 2008 season, Boldin finished with 89 catches for 1,038 yards in only 10 games. He had eight catches for 84 yards in the Super Bowl, but the Cardinals lost 27-23 to Pittsburgh.
Boldin is back in the big game, and he has no intention of losing again.
"You don't want to walk away not holding that trophy," he said. "It's something that sits with you. For me, it's been since that day. I'm glad I got back here, able to make things right."
After comparing Boldin to Hall of Fame receiver Art Monk, 49ers defensive co-ordinator Vic Fangio rattled off a list of Boldin's qualities.
"He's a complete receiver. He's physical and he's got enough quickness to get open in the short areas," Fangio said. "He's got the body and speed to get deep and out-battle you for the ball, which is a big part of his game. He's a tough receiver to stop. You've got to be able to get up and into him and not let him run his routes, but that's easier said than done."
Boldin grew up as part of a poor family in Florida, earned a scholarship to Florida State and starred for coach Bobby Bowden. He was drafted in the second round of the 2003 draft with Arizona and set a single-season record for receptions by a rookie (101) and made the Pro Bowl.
Soon after that, he created the Anquan Boldin Foundation, which is dedicated to expanding the educational and life opportunities of underprivileged children.
Last year, Boldin visited Ethiopia with former Cardinals teammate Larry Fitzgerald in an effort to help the drought-stricken country.
"For me, it was an eye-opener," Boldin said. "I felt like I had it hard growing up -- growing up in a less fortunate area -- but once I got to Ethiopia, I realize I had it great."

So I've been reading through 'Brew Like a Monk' and in the section on Chimay, they talk about using wheat starch (wheat flour in its White) as an adjunct in their recipes to improve head retention. Apparently Chimay uses 6-Row malts to convert the extra starches.
Does anyone have any experience with the stuff? The dubbel I brewed recently does not have the massive, sticky head that I had hoped for (I used 2-Row Pils, Special B, dark candi sugar). I'm tempted to try another one with 6-Row and some wheat starch, but I'm not sure what proportions to use, or if there's a special process involved. Do you just add the starch as you dough in?
I just finished reading the book and was wondering the same thing. I plan on making a dubbel soon and I will add wheat starch to the mash and see what happens. In theory the enzymes from the two row should convert the starch to sugars. I'll give you an update when its all done.
Glad somebody saw this... Definitely keep me updated!
Its in the bucket now. We will see how it works. here's the recipe for 5 gallons. I had to go to the asian market to get the wheat starch. I mixed the wheat starch in with the crushed grains before the mash.
6.5 lbs two row
.5 lbs special b
2 lbs wheat starch
1 lb table sugar
1oz cluster 60min
1oz hallertauer 30 min
mashed at 145 for 90 min
sparged at 165
og 1.068
I'll let you know how it turns out.
Well I'm drinking one now and it tastes great. I'm not sure what effect the wheat starch had on flavor though. It has a FG of 1.008. Give the wheat starch a try if you can find it.

Fall into Fashion: SwimOutlet Style Giveaway!
As the last of summer's seashells are washing back to sea, we're packing up our beach blankets and hanging up our surfboards. Although we're sad to see the care-free days in bikinis go, we're welcoming sweater weather with open arms. Whether it's the football, all of the pumpkin-spiced goodies, the autumn leaves, the cozy candles, or the fun new fashions after a summer in cut-offs and tanks-- there's just something so refreshing about fall.
As swimmers, we know that we don't get to hang up our swimsuits and goggles just because the summer sun is setting (do we ever get a break?). But regardless of our countless hours in speedos and our chlorine hair tied up in knots, we can't help but fall in love with all of the fall fashions this year. Here are some of our favorites:

As swimmers we choose to expose ourselves to extreme weather conditions in the hopes that all of our hard work will soon pay off. As we tread deeper into the colder seasons, our parkas and warm-ups become vital accessories to keep our bodies warm and insulated. Nobody wants to have chills prior to diving in for a 200-yard swim. For that very reason, the SwimOutlet.com Blog has selected a curated mix of cool (by that we mean hip) and functional products to help warm you up on the pool deck this winter.Read MoreTagged with: #cold weather # swim gear # apparel # warm ups # parkas

McDonald's November sales figure rises
McDonald's Corp. said Monday that a key sales figure rebounded in November, as U.S. customers snapped up the world's biggest hamburger chain's breakfast offerings and limited-time Cheddar Bacon Onion sandwiches.
AP Business Writer
McDonald's Corp. said Monday that a key sales figure rebounded in November, as U.S. customers snapped up the world's biggest hamburger chain's breakfast offerings and limited-time Cheddar Bacon Onion sandwiches.
The increase follows a decline in October, the first drop in McDonald's key monthly sales gauge in nearly a decade.
The company, based in Oak Brook, Ill., said that its global sales at restaurants open at least 13 months rose 2.4 percent for the month ended Nov. 30. The figure is a key metric because it strips out the impact of newly opened and closed locations.
The figure rose 2.5 percent in the U.S., boosted by popularity of breakfast options, its value menu and limited-time Cheddar Bacon Onion sandwiches.
It rose 1.4 percent in Europe, where it gets 40 percent of its business, as strength in the U.K., Russia and other markets were offset by weakness in Germany.
In the region encompassing Asia, the Middle East and Africa, it edged up 0.6 percent, hurt by results in Japan.
Systemwide sales, which includes sales at all restaurants, rose 3.2 percent.
Results benefited from McDonald's increasing focus on its dollar menu, said Jefferies analyst Andy Barrish, as well as new products like its Cheddar Bacon Onion sandwiches and $4.99 20-piece Extra Value McNuggets.
But he said the increased price competition within the sector may pressure margins, since cheaper items are less profitable. He kept his "Hold" rating on the stock.
After years of outperforming its rivals, McDonald's has seen sales growth slow as the company faces intensifying competition and an uncertain global economy. Its global revenue at restaurants open at least 13 months fell 1.8 percent in October. The last time it had dropped was in March 2003.
McDonald's has responded by renovating some stores and expanding its value menu and adding other food items to its menu.
Its longtime rivals such as Burger King and Wendy's Co. are reviving their brands with improved menus and new TV ad campaigns. Taco Bell, owned by Yum Brands Inc., is also seeing improved growth sparked by new offerings such as it Doritos Locos Tacos and higher-end Cantina Bell bowls and burritos.
Meanwhile, people are increasingly flocking to restaurants such as Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. and Panera Bread Co., which offer better-quality food for a little more money. The broader fast-food landscape has been undergoing changes over the past several years too, with the rise of chains such as Subway and Starbucks.
Shares rose 93 cents, or 1.1 percent, to close at $89.41 - up 7 percent from their 52-week low of $83.31 in November. They traded as high as $102.22 in mid-January.

The HL1-D Dual Spectrum Yellow-Green and IR LED Helmet Light from Surefire is a versatile hands-free light that provides visible yellow-green light or IR illumination with an IR Identify Friend or Foe (IFF) beacon for identification to friendly forces using NVDs. The light features three yellow-green LEDs offering up to 19.2 lumens for tasks, or two IR LEDs with a maximum output of 2.5 lumens that act as an IR illuminator for use with NVDs. The light output is controlled using two toggle switches. The first switch turns the IR IFF beacon on and off. A second switch controls the light or IR emitters and turns them off. A pressure switch on the face of the light controls the intensity of the light chosen. Pressing the button cycles through the low, medium and high levels. The light attaches to any Modular Integrated Communications Helmet (MICH) via an included ambidextrous mount with 20 preset positions that allow the light to be rotated 360° when attached. Built for durability, the fiberglass-reinforced nylon polymer body is o-ring and gasket sealed to be waterproof.

Happy 38th Birthday, Angelina Jolie!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
One of the world's most famous people and most beautiful women celebrates a birthday today.
Angelina Jolie is now 38 years old.
The super, duper star was a big enough name even prior to her major announcement last month - but she has now gained an even larger following after admitting to a double masectomy.
Jolie made her first public appearance over the weekend since the reveal, smiling on the red carpet of the World War Z premiere alongside Brad Pitt.
Oh. Right. She's also basically married to Brad Pitt.
So not a bad life overall for Angelina Jolie. Join us now in wishing her a very happy birthday!
You could have picked a nicer picture - geesh. Stop spreading poison.
38???? OMG she looks much older. Also - can't they fix that tree branch of a vein in her forehead.
what happened to her?
GIVE HER SOME FOOD, for god's sake!!

My birthday is a couple days from now. As you know we're moving to the farm. Changing what we've known for the last 15 years. It's not that I don't know what I want to do, it's not that I'm not comfortable with our current situation and it's not that we're in trouble.
We decided to move back to the farm to keep a family legacy alive and to provide a farm life for our children. There is something to be said for hard work, manual labor that really matters and working alongside family.
When we were pondering the decision to move back to the farm my mom told me that if I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life by the time I was 34 then I'd be in trouble. Well, it's not that I don't know what I want to do it's that I never realized how much the farm means to me. When it was in jeopardy to be in someone else's hands I had to think long and hard if I could live with that. Apparently I couldn't. Over 70 years of blood, sweat and tears can't disappear. I'm nervous as hell but when God calls you to do something; you go.
Happy birthday to me.
The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands. – Psalm 138:8

Hand tools such as screwdrivers, pliers, hammers, wrenches, stapler, drill bits, etc., are used everywhere, and are always somewhat of a nuisance to carry. Some tradesmen use small tool boxes for this purpose; others use a belt from which several tools are suspended. Regardless of the type of carrier it never seems to be sufficient for all purposes. The present invention solves some of these problems by providing more than normal space, and by being useful with an ordinary bucket, which may also be needed at the workplace.
It is an object of this invention to provide a tool carrier that can be used with a bucket. It is another object of this invention to provide a novel tool caddy that can be carried separately from a bucket, and is lightweight and inexpensive. Still other objects will become apparent from the more detailed description which follows.
This invention relates to a tool holding device adapted to be inserted into and carried by a bucket; said tool holding device includes an upper horizontal plate spaced above and rigidly joined to a lower horizontal dish; a short vertical wall around the outer perimeter of the plate, the plate being of a size to overlie and rest on the rim of the bucket. The plate is pierced by a plurality of passageways designed to receive and hold vertically hand tools with some part of the tools hanging below the plate and having a centrally located handle for lifting the tool holding device vertically. The lower horizontal dish is a shallow open container with an upturned edge; said plate and said dish being rigidly joined together by vertical connector means to dispose said dish below the plate and above the bottom of the bucket.
In specific and preferred embodiments of this invention the plate contains circular passageways with depending tubular guides for screwdrivers and slotted passageways for pliers; the connector is a tube which mates with bosses on the plate and the dish; or may be a pair of telescopic tubes respectively molded with the pate and dish. The tool holding device is positioned within the bucket sufficiently high to leave a space below the dish for other tools, and the dish is sectioned by partitions.
The novel features believed to be characteristic of this invention are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, both as to its organization and method of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, may best be understood by reference to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a sectional elevated view of the tool holding device according to the present invention shown mounted in a bucket and taken on line 1--1 of FIG. 2;
FIG. 2 is a top plan view of the upper plate as mounted on the device of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a bottom plan view of the upper plate of FIG. 2 taken from line 3--3 of FIG. 1
FIG. 4 is a top plan view of the lower dish of the device of FIG. 1 taken from the line 4--4 of FIG. 1;
FIGS. 5 and 6 are alternative views of the handle of the device of FIG. 1; and
FIGS. 7 and 8 are an alternative construction of the vertical mounting post of the device of FIG. 1.
The novel features of this invention can best be understood by reference to the attached drawings.
The tool holding device includes an upper horizontal plate 11 spaced vertically above a lower horizontal dish 12, both of which are perpendicular to a common central vertical axis 13. Upper plate 11 and lower dish 12 are rigidly joined to each other by a vertical connector 23, which may be a rod or tube. In the embodiment shown here the vertical connector 23 is a tube which is seated at each end onto bosses 30 at plate 11 and 31 at dish 12. The actual connection between connector 23 and bosses 30 and 31 may be by screw threads, welding, or adhesive. Since all parts of the tool holding device are expected to be light in weight they should be made of aluminum or plastic and connector 23 joined to these parts by welding or strong adhesives.
Upper plate 11 is preferably flat and circular to fit the open top of a circular bucket 14 having conventional ball handle 36. If bucket 14 has a rectangular open top, plate 11 may also be rectangular. The outer perimeter 15 of plate 11 is sufficiently large in diameter or dimension to overlie the rim 22 of bucket 14 and be held in place gently. A short upstanding perimeter wall 16 extends around perimeter 15 and terminates in a channel member 16'. Reinforcing radial ribs or webs 21 are preferably formed on the bottom surface 28 of plate 11 for added strength as shown in FIG. 3. Plate 11 is pierced with a plurality of passageways or holes of various sizes and shapes and to receive and hold tools inserted vertically in those passageways or holes, as shown in FIGS. 1-3. Typically there will be a number of circular holes 17 to receive screwdrivers 33 and a number of slotted holes 18 to receive pliers 32. Screwdriver holes 17 are augmented with short tubular guides 19 depending downwardly below plate 11 to restrict the lateral movement of the screwdriver handle and shank, which might otherwise become tangled with adjacent tools. Guides 19 preferably are short (1-3 inches) lengths of tubing welded or otherwise attached to plate 11. Still other passageways or holes through plate 11 may be added for other tools, e.g., hammer, wrench, square. A preferred arrangement of passageways and holes 17 and 18 is for an outer circle of screwdriver holes 17 spaced circumferentially inside wall 16 and the remaining, more central area of plate 11 to be used for other tools.
A central handle 20 is rigidly attached to the upper surface of plate 11 by threads, welding, or the like as shown in FIGS. 1, 5 and 6. The shape of handle 20 is optional; a generally T-shaped handle being shown in the drawings.
Lower horizontal dish 12 is a shallow container of any chosen shape, i.e., circular, rectangular, polygonal, or the like. Dish 12 has an open top, a closed bottom 24 and an outer perimeter wall 26. The internal space may be left open and undivided or divided by radial compartment walls 27 into 4-8 compartments 25 that may be used to contain nails, screws, washers, rivets, staples, or the like as shown in FIG. 4. Dish 12 is positioned sufficiently below plate 11 so as not to interfere with tools hanging downward from plate 11, and yet close enough to plate 11 to leave as much space 35 as possible between bottom 24 of dish 12 and bottom 34 of bucket 14. Space 35 may be used to carry other tools that cannot be inserted into passageways in plate 11.
FIGS. 5 and 6 illustrate two views of the handle 20 and show lower flange 20' which may be welded or otherwise attached to an upper boss 30' (FIG. 1) for support of the entire tool holding device. As understood in the art, there are a wide variety of methods to mount handle 20 to upper plate 11.
FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate a telescopic, two-section alternative embodiment of the vertical post 23 that connects upper plate 11 and lower dish 12. Post member 23' is molded (or welded) to an upper plate 11' (FIG. 7) and post member 23" is molded (or welded) to lower dish 12'. Insert fitting 38 fits inside boss 37 and is attached thereto by glue or whatever means are appropriate in the circumstances. Plate 11' and dish 12' are otherwise identical to respective plate 11 and dish 12 shown and described in FIGS. 1-4.
While the invention has been described with respect to certain specific embodiments, it will be appreciated that many modifications and changes may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention. It is intended, therefore, by the appended claims to cover all such modifications and changes as fall within the true spirit and scope of the invention.

This coming March, the Coyotes will open their seventh season in the Canadian College Baseball Conference (CCBC) and will turn to the bump for success.
The Coyotes pitching rotation should be the backbone of this club in the spring with four veteran arms leading the way including Zach Burlon, Marcus Drewry, Joel Lamont and Austin Orsted.
Last spring Drewry (pictured) was the ace of this staff with a 5-0 record and 2.60 ERA in his junior season. Now a senior the 6'2, 195 pound Courtney native will once again be asked to lead this club and build on his 19 strikeouts in 38 innings.
In his first three years with the Yotes, Drewry is 9-7 in the regular season and is averaging 21.3 strikeouts per season and logging 34.4 innings.
Left hander Burlon will enter his junior year in the spring and has averaged 27.5 strikeouts in his first two campaigns. As a freshman in 2012 Burlon threw 45.1 innings and finished 3-3 with a 4.36 ERA. After sitting out 2013 with an injury, the 6'2, 235 pounder threw 38 innings and struck out 29 hitters in 2014. He won his only post season start, throwing seven innings and fanned six.
Burlon has been a workhorse in his first two seasons compiling an average of 41.5 innings.
Lamont is also entering his junior season and has shown the coaching staff he is a two way player, hitting .280 and finishing 3-2 on the mound last spring.
The Coyotes will need Lamont to be a leader on the bump in the spring. He threw 35.2 innings last year and struck out 35 on route to his three victories and a 4.29 ERA. The Surrey native appeared twice in the playoffs and fanned 13 in 6.2 innings of work.
The youngest starter on the staff is Orsted, but he commands a game like a veteran. In just his freshman season had a team best 2.42 ERA in 26 innings pitched. He struck out 19 and finished 1-1, recording his lone win over VIBI on April 19th.
If the Coyotes want to see success in 2015 Orsted will need to be a key contributor and be asked to lead by example in his sophomore season.
The Coyotes will open the 2015 CCBC spring season on March 20th when they host the University of Calgary. Prior to the season opener, the Coyotes will play in California, Arizona and Las Vegas beginning February 7 as part of their annual winter tour. Follow the Coyotes on Twitter during the trip and over the course of the off season; @YotesBaseball

Hi. I'm an old-timer. I'd be (pleasantly) surprised if anyone I remember from the old days is still here, but I've been going through one of my Pokémon phases leading up to the European release of HeartGold and SoulSilver (tomorrow! w00t.) and it's made me a bit nostalgic, so I spent a bit of time earlier today looking through old posts here and I thought I'd pop up and say hello. I have no idea if I'll stick around at all, but I've just started a long holiday from uni so I'll have plenty of time...who knows. Hope all is well around these parts.

Luckily, Murad has found a way to calm an irritated complexion in a snap with its Overnight Soothing Gel ($30). Formulated with peppermint oil to cool and quell discomfort, this light gel goes on like a serum, without being drying, flaky, or tacky to the touch. Witch hazel and Canadian willow herb take the redness down, while vitamin E tells blotchy skin to get lost. Scent-sensitive folk will love that this barely fragranced (just a tiny hint of mint) treatment won't keep them up all night. Best of all, this anti-inflammatory doesn't just put the fire out, but it prevents it from starting in the first place.
