Bombed in His Bed
The Confessions of Jewish Gangster Myer Rush
Reviewed by
Heather Weber
Themes of crime and redemption run through the life of a complicated "gangster."
Bombed in His Bed, the biography of "Jewish gangster" Myer Rush, spans his boyhood to middle adulthood with an impressive and glorified account of his wily, criminal activities and, later, his prolific sense for business and acquiring wealth. The end of Rush's story—wrongful imprisonment, attempts on his life—is fascinating, yet lacks the sort of narrative probing and prodding at the significance of these life events that bring other biographies a measure of literary success.
Rush's nephew, Bruce Rosen, begins his account of Rush as a young boy, defending street corners to keep his share of the newspaper sales market. The young, truant Rush develops into a pickpocket and cat burglar, cultivating a talent for amassing large sums of money by stealing from the wealthy in hotels across North America. The first half of the narrative is a veritable list of criminal exploits and shady characters encountered during a life of crime. Eventually, with a few stints in prison under his belt, Rush resolves to put away crime and ravenously pursue investments and money-making schemes that will multiply his wealth into the millions. It's in this second phase of life that corruption in his company, unbeknownst to Rush, irreversibly devastates the life and business he has built.
The writing is well crafted at the sentence level and Rosen succeeds in giving the reader a comprehensive account of his uncle's early to midlife, at which point Rush's activities and whereabouts become as elusive to the narrator as they do to the reader (by Rush's design, one presumes). However, the biography is weak in developing the sort of tension between key events in the narrative that holds the interest of readers. There is perhaps too much detail about the ins and outs of Rush's operations and travel; in addition, Rosen frequently delves into world or North American events (presumably to give us historical context), but does so without drawing much connection between these events and the man he writes about.
The biggest problem with Bombed in His Bed has to do with authorial perspective, which could be skewed due to the author's relation to his subject. Rosen's assessment of Rush's life and activities is unsatisfyingly flat: Rush is a man who eats and breathes crime for the first half of his life, yet early on in the narrative of crime, Rosen refers to him as "an amazing human being" without qualification or acknowledgment of the criminal complexities of the man. Indeed, the book makes such proclamations at a time in the narrative when readers may find themselves growing in a general dislike for Rush, despite amazement at his ability to pull off such thievery. This inconsistency is unsettling.
Despite such complications in the first half of the book, Rosen may succeed in getting readers on board with his estimation of Rush's likability by the end—after Rush has endured the poetic justice of imprisonment and persecution for crimes he didn't commit and has, by all accounts, become a softer, more broken figure. It's certainly likely that readers will walk away impressed by the enormity and magnitude of adventure contained in a single life.

A Knobby for Al
Ariole Al had previous shown his Tylecodon wallachii, a nice winter-grower. His plant was knobless, for the most part.
Mine, looking a little worse for transport and having undergone an unintentional limb amputation, is not as knobby as I had thought, but nonetheless has a number of protuberances.
I'm hopeful that it will start to flower in several month.
Dear Patrick,
That guy (actually a girl, because this plant was carrying a Hermes handbag just before the picture was taken) is a relative of our mutual friends Kalanchoe and Aeonium; however, it's also one of the most toxic of the succulent Crassulaceae.
It does grow like some of the succulent Senecio, though, doesn't it? I frankly hadn't noticed that before.
The flowers are not unlike those found on Kalanchoe orgyalis.
Sir Jeffrey, That plant is a very nice specimen. Did the mishap occur coming/going to 'the' show? If so, I certainly hope there is a blue bandage.
Let's hope you can encourage the wayward appendage to produce roots.
I have flowers (first one opened today) on mine, a mere babe compared with your 'big mamma'.
Many thanks for the post.

@TopCat88: I thought so too. And with all of the horder-like boxers in the background, I assumed they were in Jeff's garage.
man, I really want that red wiimote
it's too bad the wii mini isn't cheaper, at the same time it costs $60 for a wii mote and nunchuck, so it's gotta cost a little more than that right?
Jeff looks like he had a hell of a weekend.
Whoa. That Wii Mini sure looks like a video game system... That feels damn weird to see after every iteration of the current generation hardware (including the U) trying to appear as sleek and inconspicuous as possible... The Wii, especially, was a really nifty looking console, sleek and simple with that trademark Apple-esque sheen... And then this thing comes out. What the heck? I can appreciate the toy-like charm of it, but.. geez... No, I wouldn't put that under my TV. I do not approve.

Bye, Wii-mouth Jeff.
So will the Wii mini collect less dust than my current Wii?
Alex on camera? I bet he looks even more like a creepy, rapey stalker than the last time we saw him.
I want to buy one of these and keep it in the box forever just in the off chance that it is valuable one day.
When did Jeff turn into Heat Miser?
And the rest of the Wiik? I'll show myself out.
The actual Wii has been on sale for under $130 many, many times and I'm sure has hit under $100 on big sales...so why would anyone have waited this long for this price point?

Seems far fetched, how could they know red is a dominant color on that flag?
That's literally not any smaller than the Wii, looks taller, and wider, maybe not as deep though... Although It does have a nice retro feel to it.

Somebody stole my Zune, and now I use my phone for all my music needs, which is actually way more convenient! Might I suggest you leave your Zune in an open car, Ryan, and let nature take its course.
I still really like the look of that thing.

Wouldn't be caught dead in anything with this board name on it. I do, however, think it's a good idea ... if sales went to charity and not Zod's pocket.

This is not the only scandal brewing, either..Obama's nominee...
for Secretary of Labor, Thomas Perez is about as corrupt as they come.
He attempted to 'demonize' pro-life people using false charges,
he tried to force the hiring and advancement of unqualified candidates to the FDNY, then after the courts ruled against him, he tried the same tactics in other jurisdictions.
He also filed a brief with the Supreme Court claiming the government could regulate the hiring practices of Christian Schools, which the Supreme Court ruled against.
When the new Black Panthers were attempting to intimidate voters, he claimed the intimidation laws did not protect white people.

Windows Phone 8.1 is the best update yet, thanks to its revamped design and modern features, but it lags behind iOS and Android.
Pricing not available
Navigate the ins-and-outs of Windows 8 with how-tos, troubleshooting, news, and reviews.
With new functionality for the Start button and separate experiences for desktop and tablet users, the Windows 8.1 update finally gives people what they want.
Pricing not available
If you're a dedicated Windows 8 hater, the update to Windows 8.1 isn't going to change your mind. For everyone else, this collection of tweaks, fixes, and new features is useful, but everything here should have shipped in the original version last year.
The next version of the Surface is meant to compete with midtier tablets priced around $500. But does it deliver too little, too late?
Which has the most apps? Which has the coolest features? Which one is the best? The most popular streamers all have their merits, so we'll help you decide which box is right for you.
Few users remember to take this important step, which can really save the day if your computer gets hosed.
The "Windows Phone" OS will be no more, as the version of Windows 10 tailored for smaller devices will be called simply Windows 10. Will that help improve Microsoft's lot in the smartphone market?
Windows 10 has a new notifications center for your apps -- even the ones from your Windows Phone.
Budget specs? Yep. Killer deal anyway? Yep.
Microsoft clarifies its statement about Windows 10 by noting that you can upgrade from a non-genuine version of Windows 7 or 8.1, but that doesn't mean you now have a legitimate version, according to Ars Technica.

Empathy vs. Sympathy
What's the difference between the two? Do they go hand in hand, or can you be one without the other?
Empathy is the projection of your personality into someone else's in order to understand the situation better. It's basically thinking "If I was in your shoes, how would I feel?" Sympathy is feeling the same as another person. They do not always go hand in hand.
For example, if you had a friend who was gambled her and her spouse's life savings away, and he got angry and left her, you might try to put yourself into her situation to better understand and comfort her. However, she may not believe that her husband should have left her, and you may think she got what she deserved, so you don't sympathize with her. Dramatic example, but you see the point. You could also sympathize with someone without empathizing with them. Say a friend lost someone close in a car accident. You would also feel very sad for your friend, without having to imagine the death of your loved one.
Sympathy and empathy could go together. If your (increasingly unfortunate) friend lost her job you may both sympathize and empathize with her.
Hope that was a little clear.
What a brilliant example Meghane, well done.
Do you think we are all capable of empathy ?
Do we have to learn empathy ?
I have noticed that some people are more empathetic than others, in fact I am so inclinded..it drives me insane sometimes, because I can feel how everyone else feels. Even on the news, those terrible stories of war. I sit there and cry, sometimes.

Has anyone figured of how to get the s5 to save pictures and video to the sd card? I'm not an i d i o t, but I can't seem to figure it out.
Go to the camera settings it's there Attachment 113682

The real problem is deleting pictures from the SD card. No picture app I've used, stock, Google or otherwise, will delete pictures from the SD card. The only app that will is My Files browser. But that can only display tiny thumbnails.
For convenience sake, I may have to save pictures to internal memory and occasionally archive them to external SD.
Really wish Google didn't screw with SD card users like this.
Posted via Android Central App
Go to the camera settings and it is there but you can not see it until you scroll the options up.
Lol. Holy crap they hid that on me. Thanks for the help. I didn't realize it scrolled.
How do we save downloads and screenshots onto there
I swear it didn't work earlier today, but I can delete pics from the SD card with the Gallery app. Not sure why I thought I couldn't.
The Gallery app does display all of my edited pictures in the Pixlr Express folder twice. Same file name both times. If I delete one, the thumbnail for the duplicate remains, but you get the broken picture icon when you tap on it. There is no picture when it's viewed through Quickpic.
I installed my SD card and my camera app automatically saved to it. I also delete and edit photos all the time from it. Haven't had any issues yet.
I have an SD card installed on the S5 and had settings on the camera to goto sdcard, however when I do a storage glance it says it has used memory on my main device.. am I just reading this wrong?
You can delete them easy from the memory card . I do it from the gallery all the time . Just long press on the pic and the waste basket appears . Or pull the memory card and plug it into your computer .
Fair enough.. worked.. so the pics are suppose to show in gallery with it not being stored on device?
Thanks so much.
you may be able to use this app and store the video into OTG disk directly.
to avoid the internal memory full or trouble in transfer file from internal memory to external SD card.
search 'CameraOTG' from play store or
When I went to camera settings, I didn't see the save to SD option - but you have to scroll down to that option - why they just didn't put all the icons on one page because it appears that all that are there are the ones that pop up first, since there is more room on the screen for the others, but there is a scroll bar on the right - then I found it! Sneaky!
Yeah, that scroll bar IS sneaky! I didn't see it either till someone pointed it out seveal weeks ago.
As for deleting pictures from the SD card, I'm using the stock gallery and my pictures delete just fine.
I wonder if the card is locked?

Worst Experience / Worst ServiceI got a defect in my braun trimmer, and its at the service center since last one month, and they do not have spare parts to repair it. The trimmer quality degraded after using it for a month, and then the defect came. I would suggest everybody in India not to buy braun products since the service is awful.

Hi Brother,
Great information.God Bless
According to Luke it was the Pharisees that loved money
Luke 16 v 14The Pharisees, who dearly loved their money, heard all this and scoffed at him.
Luke 11:43 "Woe to you Pharisees, because you love the most important seats in the synagogues and greetings in the marketplaces.
Luke 20:46 "Beware of the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and love to be greeted in the marketplaces and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.
The Pharisees and Scribes, were according to Jesus, the real imposters.
Regarding the Temple versus the Synagogue it seems that the Synagogue was ans invention of the Romans.In the OT there is no mention of them.
In the Old Test the Israelites were warned not to worship anywhere else but at A Place that God will choose.
Deuteronomy 16:15 ... For seven days you will celebrate this festival dedicated to the LORD your
God in the place he will choose.
Deuteronomy 12:5
But you are to seek the place the LORD your God will choose from among
all your tribes to put his Name there for his dwelling. To ...
Deuteronomy 17:10 At the place that the LORD will choose. Do what they tell you. Follow all their instructions carefully,
You will find answers to some of what you have mentioned in your comment in the blog written about the Pharisees and Synagogues. There is a link to this writing in the second paragraph of this blog.
Thanks for reading the blog and for your comments and insight.
I am in an actual study program that will lead to becoming a pastor. The name of the textbook being used is also included at the bottom of the blog. This has been a series of blogs covering background information that help us understand the world that Jesus Christ entered in to. I have tried to keep each blog of the series under 1000 words so the Pharisees and the Sadducees did not get discussed in the same blog.
God Bless
Firsty I do apologize for calling you brother.I was looking at the guy Dave that posted a comment and assumed.
Great that you are studying towards Pastorship.We could do with some intelligent teaching.Keep up the good work.
