Gail Wynne Announced as JWL Legacy Award Winner!
The members of the Junior Welfare League of Enid created the Legacy Award to honor an honorary or sustaining member of the Junior Welfare League of Enid who has provided many years of extraordinary service following her tenure of active membership with the organization. The award is recognition of the countless hours Junior Welfare League of Enid honorary and sustaining members give to their communities. The nominees for this award must demonstrate extraordinary volunteer involvement within the Greater Enid community over numerous years, a personal commitment to community welfare and growth through volunteer service, an active engagement in community involvement and leadership, and a true personal sense of the importance of charitable work in the Enid Area.
We are pleased to announce that the recipient of the inaugural JWL Legacy Award is Gail Wynne.
Gail joined the Junior Welfare League as a provisional member in 1978. While an active member, she served as the Cookbook Marketing Chair for Stir-Ups during its launch, and continued on to be the Cookbook Steering Chair. Food is a recurring theme in her volunteer service as she has followed her passion to feed the hungry in our community.
Gail serves as Fundraising Chair for Garfield County Childhood Hunger and was the organizer of the local Food 4 Kids Backpack program. Through her efforts, food pantries were established in Enid schools. She is a member of the Board of Directors of the Regional Food Bank of OK Foundation, which led her to become the "Founding Mother" of Loaves & Fishes Food Resource Center. She is a former Board Chair at Loaves & Fishes and is a current board member there, where she also volunteers weekly.
Throughout all of this, she still found time to serve on the Board of the Friends of the Mansion for the Oklahoma Governor's Mansion and maintain her membership in the First Presbyterian Church where she is in the choir, serves as director of the after school tutoring program, and is a former Deacon and Elder.
She encourages women to pursue volunteerism as a lifestyle, and that is reflected in the commitment that she wrote for League that is still included in our yearbook that is distributed to all members:
"It is difficult to describe what a Junior Welfare League member is and what is asked of her. We are many things. Demands on our energies change with the needs of our city. We give to individuals in need both directly with our time and indirectly with our money. From this we learn humility and the joy of sharing ourselves. We know how much we are needed by the lives we touch. From this we learn to be personally responsible for the commitments we make. We know that even when we have met our requirements that there are still people to be helped and jobs to be done. From this we learn unselfishness. We know we give up time with our families. By that we are setting an example for future generations to become involved. We meet new people and make friends that last a lifetime. From these friendships we learn loyalty and understanding.
Although we give much and touch many lives, we receive more back from what we learn and those who touch our lives.
Gail epitomizes this award, and it is truly an honor to name her as the first recipient of the JWL Legacy Award.
Junior Welfare League of Enid
is an organization of active young women interested in our community's welfare and growth.
Much of the money used to finance our operations comes from
Return Engagement
, our resale shop located at 123 N. Grand Ave, where we sell clothing, furniture and household items.
Another ongoing source of revenue is our
cookbook sales
. We have published two cookbooks:
Stir Ups
Cooking By The Boot Straps.
They are found on shelves across the country and are also for sale right here on this site.
Our third source of funds comes from our annual
Charity Gala
. It is an elegant, magical evening of delicious hors d'oeuvres, live music, live & silent auctions and great fun!
In addition to running two successful businesses, each year League members spend hundreds of hours on working committees that are an integral part of the Enid community. Recent committees, other than Return Engagement and the Cookbook Office include: CDSA Reading Program,
(Clothing, Education, and Welfare), Garfield County Child Advocacy Center, NODA, Newsletter and Waller Reading and Math. In addition to our working committees we select a special project to work on each year.
Since its humble beginnings during the depression, JWL has been successful in reaching out to hundreds of individuals and organizations through fundraisers and service committees. None of this would have been possible without the tireless devotions and commitment of each member. Should you decide to become a part of our organization, you too will be asked to make a commitment to our community, fulfill the obligations of membership, and join us in making the Enid area a great place to live.

Why this sudden rage over the "discovery" that Congress president Sonia Gandhi has been calling the shots in UPA I and II governments? Only the politically naive would have believed otherwise. In the Congress scheme of things, party is supreme and without the party there is no government and sans Gandhi family there is no party. As such, the Prime Minister, whoever he or she may be, must be subservient to the party and the Gandhi family
So a diarchal leadership was evolved through an unstated arrangement between Singh and Sonia in 2004. The system, which created dual power centres, worked very well for UPA I. The experiment was so good that the Congress bagged 60 more Lok Sabha seats in 2009 to form the UPA II government.
By 2008 Manmohan Singh had become an icon of the middle class. "Singh was King". Foreign media sung hosannas to Singh. During the Copenhagen Climate Summit in Beijing US President Barack Obama walked up to Singh and said: "Mr Guru what will we do?" The Independent described him as "one of the world's most revered leaders" and "a man of uncommon decency and grace."
The halcyon days ended soon. It is a sad commentary such a man is being reviled and ridiculed at the fag end of his career. How much of it is Singh's own making? No doubt, he presided over a dispensation hit by scams and governance deficit. However, the mud being flung at Singh is hugely disproportionate to his contribution to the mess created by UPA II.
What went wrong? If the dual power centre worked well in UPA I, why it did not after 2009?
Singh was served with a fait accompli. He had to work with demanding and cantankerous allies who even hindered economic and foreign policy initiatives. The Trinamool Congress and DMK bolted, making the numbers game in Parliament even more dicey for the government.
To ensure the survival of the government, the Congress initially winked at the 2G scam linked to DMK and the demand for a JPC probe.
The Congress party's Parliament strategy was pathetic; the BJP disrupted proceedings and session after session was washed out jeopardising key legislative agenda.
None of it was Manmohan Singh's making. Congressmen knew he is not a wily or astute politician. The PM post was outsourced to him and he could work only in congenial environs. To cap it all, barring one or two honourable exceptions, Singh did not have much of a say in the appointment of his council of ministers.
However, Singh appears to have committed two cardinal mistakes. One, alienating the Left and second not stepping down as PM when the going was tough.
He had banked too much on the Americans and risked the survival of UPA I government by signing the Indo-US nuclear deal. The UPA lost the backing of Left parties thereby sowing the seeds of a weak UPA II.
The Left, the CPM in particular, was not only a vocal section of secular polity but also played a balancing role and guided the government and the Congress president on crucial policy initiatives.
Finally, why didn't Singh quit? Charitable Congressmen say that he did not want to be seen as jumping a sinking ship. Moreover, the Indian economy is not all that bad despite the global meltdown. And the periodic pincer attacks by Congressmen notwithstanding, Singh and Sonia vibed well, had good personal chemistry. He did not want to ditch her and precipitate a crisis as he knew that finding a successor was not going to be easy for Gandhi.
Last year, an unusually combative Singh had said the BJP pitted the Iron Man (Advani) against a "lamb" (Singh). Perhaps, he did not know that he would soon be the proverbial sacrificial lamb for Congressmen.

Rochester, Minn.
Describes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with endothelial dysfunction and the development of cardiovascular disease. It is unclear how OSA results in endothelial dysfunction, but given the association between OSA and obesity, adipose-derived hormones (adipokines) are likely to be involved. Leptin, an adipokine upregulated in patients with OSA, has been shown to be associated with deleterious effects on vascular function resulting in impaired endothelial function. This proposal is directed at investigating the molecular mechanisms of endothelial dysfunction in OSA patients. We hypothesize that endothelial dysfunction associated with OSA is a result of molecular alterations within endothelial cells. As a part of these studies we will look at NO signaling pathways in adipose tissue and microvessels from normal and OSA subjects.
Study statuses change often. Please contact us for help.

During the early phases (phases 1 and 2), researchers assess safety, side effects, optimal dosages and risks/benefits. In the later phase (phase 3), researchers study whether the treatment works better than the current standard therapy. They also compare the safety of the new treatment with that of current treatments. Phase 3 trials include large numbers of people to make sure that the result is valid. There are also less common very early (phase 0) and later (phase 4) phases. Phase 0 trials are small trials that help researchers decide if a new agent should be tested in a phase 1 trial. Phase 4 trials look at long-term safety and effectiveness, after a new treatment has been approved and is on the market.
The Zenith® TX2® Low Profile TAA Endovascular Graft study is a clinical trial approved by US FDA to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Zenith® TX2® Low Profile TAA Endovascular Graft indicated for the treatment of patients with aneurysms/ulcers of the descending thoracic aorta having vessel structure suitable for repair.
Subjects for this study will have been diagnosed with a bulge or aneurysm in their abdominal aorta, which is the blood vessel in the abdomen (belly) that supplies blood to most of the lower body including major organs and the legs.
The purpose of this study is to gather safety and effectiveness of the Zenith t-Branch and customized physician-specified stent-graft with a combination of fenestrations and/or branches to repair the aneurysm.
The Zenith t-Branch and physician-specified fenestrated and branched endovascular graft is a tubular graft made of polyester fabric sewn to stainless steel stents that keep the graft open. As an aneurysm expands, the walls become weak and may rupture, causing a major loss of blood with a high risk of death and other serious complications. To avoid this risk the aneurysm will be repaired by putting a graft in place of the aneurysm. The graft will be inserted through arteries in the leg (called endovascular repair). This procedure uses catheters that go inside the blood vessel to place a stent graft above and below the aneurysm.
The upper portion of the graft includes 1 to 5 small holes (fenestrations) or cuffs (side branches) that allow the graft to be located above the renal arteries without blocking blood flow to them. These small holes or branches are the investigational part of this research study. This is needed when there is not enough healthy aorta below the renal arteries. At least one artery may also be treated with an alignment stent (small tubular stainless steel structures) to help keep the arteries open and aligned with the fenestrations or branches. The Zenith t-Branch and physician-specified fenestrated and branched endovascular graft will be referred to as the Zenith Fenestrated-Branched System.
Open for enrollment
This study will compare two groups of subjects with complex abdominal aortic aneurysms. It will compare their clinical outcomes and quality of life measures. The group being treated in this study will have their aneurysms repaired by an endovascular approach using Zenith® Fenestrated AAA Endovascular Graft. This group will be compared to a group of 461 patients (historical cohort) whose complex aneurysms were treated by open surgical repair.
The primary goal of the trial is to compare two different Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) treatment approaches: 1) an "early treatment" approach or 2) a "conservative" approach. For the purposes of the study infants will be enrolled if they are delivered before 28 weeks gestation and have a moderate/large PDA present at 5-7 days after birth.
The hypothesis is: treatment of a moderate size patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) will decrease the time needed for assisted respiratory support, diuretic therapy, and gavage feeding assistance, in addition to decreasing the incidence of ductus ligations or need for future outpatient cardiology follow-up appointments. The investigators hypothesize that one or more of these benefits will occur without an increase in the time taken to achieve full enteral feedings or in the incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) or spontaneous intestinal perforations (SIP).The investigators will be comparing the effectiveness of early pharmacologic treatment with a control group of conservatively managed infants who will only receive treatment if they meet specific criteria for "rescue treatment".
The purpose of this work is to evaluate the feasibility of a new Cardiac Vascular Reconstruction (CAVAREC, Siemens Medical Systems, Germany) image reconstruction algorithm for use during transcatheter aortic valve implant (TAVI) procedures. CAVAREC utilizes the same x-ray projection images as currently acquired for clinical DynaCT. X-ray image acquisition to allow CAVAREC will occur during the TAVI procedure both before and after the TAVI device is implanted. The CAVAREC image processing algorithm will be implemented on an off-line workstation after the TAVI procedure is complete. After the TAVI procedure, CAVAREC images will be quantitatively and qualitatively compared to Siemens DynaCT and cardiac CT images from Radiology. The results of this study will be used to direct further development of CAVAREC toward the end goal of providing improved imaging capabilities to guide TAVI procedures.
To comprehensively characterize Left Ventricular (LV) remodeling after Myocardial Infarction (MI) in the community, study the association between patterns of remodeling and biological pathways and examine the association between the predictors of remodeling and heart failure after Myocardial Infarction.
The purpose of this research study is to look at how trauma affects the ability of blood to clot. The blood of people who suffer a traumatic injury can under-clot or over-clot, and this research study will look at blood drawn from people after they suffer a traumatic injury to see how well their blood clots.

pink stripe down center of screen
I am running SUSE 9.3 with a Nvidia 5200 chipset on an ASUS card.
I just did a SUSE update which upgraded KDE to 3.4.0 Level "b".
After completing that I now have a pink stripe down the center of the
entire screen that is about 3-1/2 mm wide. The stripe has snow flowing
or static flowing through it. Otherwise everything is legable even within
the stripe.
I am about to pull the nvidia card out and try a Matrox but would like to fix this if possible. Has anyone seen this?
Suggestions most appreciated for troubleshooting?
I am using the nvidia drive supplied via the SUSE YOU which allows for kernel updates without having to recompile nvidia drivers so this means that the driver is behind current relases.
FX5200 (0x0322)
version string: 1.5.3 NVIDIA 71.67
Re: pink stripe down center of screen
Can you capture this pink stripe in a screenshot? Does it persist if you upgrade to 1.0-7676?
Also, please generate and post a bug report.
Re: pink stripe down center of screen
Pink stripe (changes color depending on background) is not captured via ksnapshot.
I have never installed any video drivers other than using YOU prior are there any hints beyond the readme you might be willing to share? After trying out the new driver I'll post as bug report as you suggest? Also, my card is an ASUS V9520-X/TD/128
I find that although it is supporting and running well all 3D applications glxgears doesn't report back the expected performance.
996 frames in 5.0 seconds = 199.200 FPS
What has your experience been.
I much appreciate the feedback, many thanks.
Re: pink stripe down center of screen
Does the colored line go away if you switch to the 'nv' X driver? Quite honestly, this sounds like a hardware problem.
Re: pink stripe down center of screen
First of all I must thank you for your excellent feedback and your valuable help.
I killed KDE and tried native X and still had the stripe. I wasn't sure if that is what you meant as I didn't know how to use the 'nv' native X driver per your last post.
I don't see the stripe when the NVIDIA splash screen appears.
I had a mirror of 9.3 prior to the KDE upgrade I mentioned earlier that I don't remember seeing this problem on. However, it also had the pink stripe.
Also, I compiled and got installed and working 1.0-7676 per your earlier recommendation and that didn't help either.
I am now convinced that I have a card that has gone bad although it was only 2-months old. It's under warentee so I will get another one and try it soon.
Thanks again for convincing me I have hardware problems as I was loosing steam trying to figure this out.
Re: pink stripe down center of screen
Switching to the 'nv' X driver is as simple as editing your /etc/X11/xorg and replacing 'nvidia' with 'nv'.
Re: pink stripe down center of screen
Thanks. On SuSE three files exist. In all cases it says do not edit as these files
modified by YaST or SAX. I went ahead and changed the xorg.conf file.
xorg.conf: Driver "nvidia"
xorg.conf.YaST2save: Driver "nvidia"
xorg.conf.saxsave: Driver "nvidia"
I changes the xorg.conf to "nv" and restarted the session.
It was obvious that a change took place as slight geometry changes were noticed.
The PINK stripe continued to be present.
I have sent for a new card that should be here and in my machine by the 1st. I'll let you know if that fixed the issue.
Many thanks!
Re: pink stripe down center of screen
Sigh, the new nvidia graphics card didn't fix the problem.
However, it lead me to the problem which was the LCD
monitor itself in trouble. Was I stupid not to move this over
to another system a long time ago.

In this hands-on course, James Williamson demonstrates the concepts that form the foundation of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), including styling text, adding margins and padding, and controlling how images display. The course also explores the tools needed to work with CSS, the differences between embedded and external styles, how to use selectors to target elements, and what to do when styles conflict.
In many cases, CSS allows us to tweak our syntax slightly to achieve more focused targeting goals. When writing class and ID selectors you can also make them element-specific, meaning they will only apply when those attributes are applied to a specific element type. To maybe make more sense if that, I have got a page here opened in the browser, and this is the element-specific.htm, which is found in the 02_06/Chapter_02 directory, and it's exactly what we had in our last lesson for the most part.
We have all of these artists targeted with a class attribute of artist, and then they are being styled with a class selector of artist. But maybe we don't want them all styled exactly the same. For example, the name of the artists here in the headline probably shouldn't look exactly the same way it does in the body copy everywhere, but right now that artist selector is applying to the entire page. So let's go take a look at how we can maybe modify the selector a little bit and make it more specific. So now in my code editor here, Aptana Studio, I have the element-specific file open again.
Remember that it is in the 02_06 directory. And I just wanted to scroll down into my styles, and here I can see the artist style that we created in the last exercise. So what I am going to do is I am going to create another one directly underneath this, and here I want to use what's known as an element-specific selector. So I can say h2.artist. All right! So I am just going to open up my curly braces really quick, and before I add any styling to this, I want to talk about this a little bit, so the syntax of it.
So in this case, this selector is saying apply to any element, doesn't matter which type of element it is, but any element that has the class artist applied to it. This selector, on the other hand, is being much more specific. It's saying I only want you to add this formatting if you find an h2 with the class artist applied to it. So notice that syntax-wise there is no space between the h2 and the class selector-- they are just joined together--and the element that you are targeting comes first. Let's see if this works. So inside this selector, I am going to type in font-style, and I want to make that normal.
Underneath that, I am going to change color to black, and I am going to use a formatting property that we are going to play around with a little bit more later on called font-variant, and I'm going to make that small-caps. And that's a dash between the small and caps, so small-caps, so font-variant: small-caps. Okay, let's try this out. So I am going to save this and preview this in my browser. Now you can see that it didn't affect the styling of the other elements at all, but only when the h2 had the class applied to it do I get the text, no not italicized, using small-caps, and the color is now black, so this is exactly what I want.
Now element-specific selectors can be used for classes and IDs as well. If I go back into my code, if I wanted to, I could go to featuredArtist, and I notice that featuredArtist is currently on aside. But even though it can only be used once per page, maybe on one page there will be an article about the featured artist and in that sense, you'll be using the ID featuredArtist on articles instead of an aside, and maybe they will need to be formatted differently. So, in order to make sure that this formatting is only used for asides, I can come over right back up to my styles and I can do the exact same thing.
I can go in and just say aside# featuredArtist. And once again notice that there is no space between the element that I am targeting and the ID or class selector; they are just joined, just like that. If I save this and test it, I can see that there's no change to the formatting whatsoever, and that's because it is in aside that is targeting it. Now if I changed it to article, the selector is no longer going to work. The styling goes away because on this page, it's an aside and not an article.
So these element-specific selectors give you an incredibly powerful way to target very specific elements on the page. Now one thing that you should keep in mind, however: these selectors do require a little bit more processing work from the browser in order to target these elements, so you should really limit their use to times when they are the most efficient selector available. So don't just write a class or ID element-specific selector because the conditions for it exist on a page; limit its use to when it's the best selector for the job.

The lights are on
Tip number one: Always, ALWAYS, level up.
As soon as you get the ability, and some gems, level up your Gravity meter, and Gravity Kick. This will always help you with the main quest and challenge missions.
Tip number two: finish the story BEFORE trophy hunting.
This game is quite long; so I suggest finishing the game before you go for the platinum. You will have more abilities and probably have an upgraded move to help with the challenge missions.
Tip number three: Try and try again.
If you get stuck on a challenge mission/story level, keep trying. If you are STILL having problems, find more gems and gold-medal some easier challenges to upgrade your abilities.
Tip number four: replay rift zones to collect all the gems.
Tip number five: do ALL the challenges.
This should be a no-brainer, considering the trophy for completing and golding al challenges.

José Faur
José Faur (Hebrew: יוסף פאור) is a Sepharadi Hakham (rabbi), teacher and scholar. He was a Rabbi in the Syrian-Jewish community in Brooklyn for many years . He was also a professor at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, the Spertus Institute for Jewish Learning and Leadership, and Bar Ilan University, and is currently Professor of Law at Netanya Academic College.[1]
José Faur was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina and belonged to the Damascene Syrian Jewish community of that city.
Early education[edit]
He was tutored in Jewish subjects by several Sepharadi Rabbis specially hired by his parents to this end.. Hakham Eliahu Freue, cited by Faur as his principal teacher, was the spiritual head of the Damascus community in Argentina and taught Faur the fundamentals of Talmud, Jewish law and rabbinics. Other teachers included hakhamim Eliahu Suli, Jamil Harari and Aharon Cohen.[2]
Faur credits these Rabbis for providing him with an outstanding Jewish education.
"They never assumed an arrogant attitude toward their students or anyone else. They were accessible to all and encouraged contrary views and free discussion. The truth was the result of a collective effort in which everyone had equal access and share, rather than being imposed by an individual of a superior mind. Following Sephardic educational tradition, the teaching was methodical and comprehensive. Before one began to study the Talmud, it was expected of him to have a solid knowledge of the scripture, Mishnayot, the famous anthology Eyn Yaaqov, the Shulhan Arukh and other basic Jewish texts."[2]
Rabbinic education[edit]
In 1955, barely in his late teens, Faur was accepted to the prestigious Rabbinic academy, the Beth Medrash Govoha in Lakewood, New Jersey.[2] The institution was founded and run by the Lithuanian Talmudist, Rabbi Aharon Kotler.
Faur reminisces about his time at the Yeshiva:
"The first lesson I heard by Rabbi Kotler sounded like a revelation. He spoke rapidly, in Yiddish, a language I didn't know but was able to understand because I knew German. He quoted a large number of sources from all over the Talmud, linking them in different arrangements and showing the various interpretations and interconnection of later Rabbinic authorities. I was dazzled. Never before had I been exposed to such an array of sources and interconnections. Nevertheless there were some points that didn't jibe. I approached R' Kotler to discuss the lesson. He was surprised that I had been able to follow. When I presented my objections to him, he reflected for a moment and then replied that he would give a follow-up lesson where these difficulties would be examined. This gave me an instant reputation as some sort of genius (iluy), and after a short while, I was accepted into the inner elite group.
My years in Lakewood were pleasurable and profitable.... At the same time the lessons of R' Kotler and my contacts with fellow students were making me aware of some basic methodological flaws in their approach. The desire to shortcut their way into the Talmud without a systematic and methodological knowledge of basic Jewish texts made their analysis skimpy and haphazard...The dialectics that were being applied to the study of Talmud were not only making shambles out of the text, but, what was more disturbing to me, they were also depriving the very concept of Jewish law, Halacha, of all meaning. Since everything could be "proven" and "disproven", there were no absolute categories of right and wrong. Accordingly, the only possibility of morality is for the faithful to surrender himself to an assigned superior authority; it is the faithful's duty to obey this authority simply because it is the authority and because he is faithful. More precisely, devotion is not to be measured by an objective halacha (it has been destroyed by dialectics) but by obedience. Within this system of morality there was no uniform duty. It was the privilege of the authority to make special dispensations and allowances (hetarim) to some of the faithful; conversely, the authority could impose some new obligation and duties on all or a part of the faithful."
This approach seemed to Rabbi Faur to be at odds with the approach that he was reared in during his years in Argentina. It was at the Beth Medrash Govoha that Rabbi Faur first met and befriended the late Reb Shlomo Carlebach.
After this he went and taught at the Sephardic Ahi Ezer Congregation and then opened a Yeshiva in a house on Avenue P in Brooklyn NY. During this time, Rabbi Faur brought many people back to halachic observance and created a renaissance in the learning of Tora in accordance with the Sephardic traditions. Ralph Betesh, who late became one of the leaders of the Jewish community, but was a young man at the time of Rabbi Faur's ascendance, recounts how for the first time people heard of great Sephardic luminaries such as Don Isaac Abarbanel, R. Bachya ibn Pakuda and R. Moshe Hefez. Rabbi Faur's influence in bringing the younger generation back to the traditions of Halacha and Tora was very substantial and many of the community's lay and religious leaders were actually students (or students of students) of Rabbi Faur: Dennis Dweck, Rabbi Moshe Shamah, Mickey Kairey etc.
Graduate studies and ordination[edit]
Rabbi Faur left the yeshiva with a view to fortifying his knowledge of Tora with an academic background. With this in mind, Rabbi Faur sought to follow studies that focused on Semitic Philology. He was the first Jew to be accepted at the University of Barcelona since the Jews were expelled from Spain in 1492 during the Spanish Inquisition. He graduated in 1961 with a degree in Semitic Philology and an M.A. in Semitic Languages; the title of his master's thesis was "La Espiritualidad Judia," a basic explanation of Jewish spirituality.[1] In 1963, Faur received his Semicha (contemporary rabbinic ordination) from hakham Suleiman Haggai Abadi, head of the Beth Din (Jewish court) of Jerusalem.[1] Meanwhile, Faur completed his doctorate in Semitic Languages (which he received in 1964), writing a thesis on "The Masorah to the Targum Onqelos."[1] Later that year he left Spain to participate in a three-year fellowship at the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York, under the supervision of the eminent professor of Talmud, Saul Lieberman.[1] In 1966, Faur was ordained as a dayyan (judge) in Family Law (Even Ha'ezer) by hakham Matloub Abadi, and was further ordained as a dayyan by hakham Suleiman Haggai Abadi in 1968, this time in Civil Law (Choshen Mishpat).[1]
Hence, in the Sephardic tradition of combining study of Tora with a strong academic background, Rabbi Faur was ready to return to teaching both as a Rabbi and a Professor.
Affiliation with JTSA[edit]
In 1967, on the advice of hakhamim David de Sola Pool and Matloub Abadi (a leader of the Syrian Jewish community of Brooklyn, originally from Aleppo (Halab) - see Syrian Jews), Faur accepted a faculty position at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America in New York, where he developed a close relationship with the late Abraham Joshua Heschel, professor of Jewish Ethics and Mysticism. Faur left the school in 1985, when the Graduate Rabbinical School began admitting women. Rabbi Faur later sued for breach of contract, arguing that by admitting women in such a manner, the seminary was in effect forcing him to resign.
Support of leading rabbis[edit]
Rabbi Faur received the support of the chief rabbi of the Syrian Jewish community in Brooklyn, Jacob Kassin, who signed an open letter attesting to Rabbi Faur's religious standing.[3] Kassin explained that Rabbi Faur did not agree with the Conservative movement at all and that he had only taught at the school in order to earn a living even though he was willing to send a student to learn there.
In the summer of 1987, Rabbi Faur received support from an unexpected source. The Sepharadi chief rabbi of Jerusalem, hakham Chalom Messas, convened a Beth Din which examined the allegations against Rabbi Faur and came to the conclusion that he was innocent of all charges. Chief Sepharadi Rabbi Mordechai Eliyahu later affirmed the decision as well.[3] The Haredi weekly, Yated Neeman carried an ad on February 8, 1988, which called for the prevention of "the appointing of a Conservative rabbi to the Syrian Congregation Shaare Zion in New York." Aside from his involvement with the seminary, the ad accused Faur of "speaking improperly about great medieval Ashkenazic sages" and that his books "emit an odor of heresy." The declaration was signed by seventeen Rabbis. Eventually Rabbis Chalom Messas and Mordechai Eliyahu withdrew their earlier support.[3]
Positions after leaving JTSA[edit]
In 1987, Faur took a position as the Ezra Sensibar Visiting Professor at the Spertus Institute for Jewish Learning and Leadership in Chicago, where he taught until 1993.[1] Faur went on to teach Talmud part-time at Bar Ilan University in Ramat Gan, Israel, until 2003.[1] From 1996 until 2007, Faur also taught law at Netanya Academic College,[1] which was founded in 1994 by a team from Bar Ilan University in Netanya, Israel. Notwithstanding the attacks against him, Rabbi Faur (who now is listed just as "Professor" wherever he speaks) continued teaching and writing young Tora scholars and his works are considered by many to be amongst the most influential and compelling in the Jewish world today.
Published works[edit]
Faur has published eight books and over 100 essays and articles on a wide variety of subjects, ranging from linguistics to historiography to rabbinic law.

The Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization and Job Creation Act of 2010 (the "2010 Tax Act") that was signed into law on December 17, 2010 includes provisions that significantly affect the administration of estates of decedents who died in 2010.
Prior to the passage of the 2010 Tax Act, it was expected that all estates of decedents who died in 2010 with more than $1.3 million of non-cash assets were going to be required to file an IRS Form 8939 "Allocation of Increase in Basis for Property Received from a Decedent" in order to allocate basis to assets inherited from a 2010 decedent. This requirement was a result of the temporary repeal of the estate tax that also repealed the automatic step up in basis upon death rules. However, the 2010 Tax Act changed the rules for 2010 estates. As a result, it may no longer be necessary for as many 2010 estates to file a Form 8939. It has been estimated that there could be as few as 3000 estates that file a Form 8939, due to the new options presented by the 2010 Tax Act.
The estate of a decedent who died in 2010 now has 2 general options. The estate can choose to either "Opt-In" or "Opt-Out" of estate tax.

ANAHEIM -- Storylines abound at Angel Stadium tonight, as two of the three best teams in the majors meet in the Angels and Tigers.
It's Garrett Richards against Max Scherzer in one of the better pitching matchups of the season. And Torii Hunter's return to Anaheim for the second time since he signed with Detroit.
Mike Scioscia is going with his most preferred lineup, as C.J. Cron returns to the starting nine. Former Angel Andrew Romine is not in the Tigers' lineup, but Hunter hits fifth, behind resurgent veteran Victor Martinez, who, as Scioscia said today, is having one of the best seasons in the American League.
As for Miguel Cabrera, who's back to mashing for the Tigers after a slow start, Scioscia said his makeup is "a lot like Mike Trout's."
"You'll see him have a couple bad at-bats here and there and then he doesn't change what he needs to do in the batter's box," Scioscia said.
Here are tonight's full lineups on Singles Night at the ballpark:
Austin Jackson CF
Ian Kinsler 2B
Miguel Cabrera 1B
Victor Martinez DH
Torii Hunter RF
Nick Castellanos 3B
Alex Avila C
Eugenio Suarez SS

IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. has unveiled an IT system for light commercial vehicles that harnesses the power of smartphones to provide safety and performance data to both drivers and fleet managers in real time.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130827/CL70277LOGO-b )
By using the service, demonstrated for the first time at Nissan 360 in California, fleet managers will be able to cut down on running costs by remotely monitoring maintenance information, as well as the driving behavior of their staff, while the vehicles are on the road. Drivers will also receive real-time information to help them operate their vehicles more safely.
Nissan aims to install the system in the vehicles for business owners which are being considered for launches in the future.The service works by linking a smartphone, or other connected device, wirelessly to the vehicle's IT system, while maintaining a high level of security. Data is then uploaded using the mobile telephony network to the cloud where it can be accessed by fleet managers remotely. By integrating smartphones into the system Nissan will be able to offer, at a low price, services comparable to a dedicated car navigation system for businesses. The features that have been unveiled are: (1) Services for drivers
- Notify when the vehicle exceeds preset speed
- Eco-driving and smart driving diagnosis results
- Automated notification of EV charging spots when battery capacity is low (applicable for electric vehicles)
- Function for confirming vehicle location
- Vehicle maintenance information (informing maintenance timing based on miles driven)
- Eco-driving and smart driving diagnosis results of each driver
- Electricity mileage information (applicable in the case of EVs)
- Function for confirming charging status and battery condition (applicable in the case of EVs)

'Doctor Who' 'revitalised' by Peter Capaldi, claims co-star
Tom Riley says new Doctor is "going to bring something completely different."Buy DVD and Blu-ray
from Amazon UK
Peter Capaldi will "revitalise" Doctor Who when he takes over the lead role this autumn, claims co-star Tom Riley.
Riley, who will also star in Kill Your Friends later this year, will star alongside Capaldi in a new episode of the hit BBC1 show later this year. The actor was recently spotted filming scenes alongside the new Doctor dressed as Robin Hood.
Speaking to Flicks and The City (see below) about what he expects Capaldi to bring to the role, Riley says: "I think Peter's going to completely revitalise the show - not that it needed revitalising!" the actor told Flicks And The City. "He's going to bring something completely different to the Doctor."
He adds: "When you change a lead actor, everything's going to change - but you can rest assured he's going to absolutely smash it."
Meanwhile, director Ben Wheatley recently claimed that the new run of Doctor Who episodes will feel more like the "classic" series.
Wheatley, who is known for working on films such as A Field In England and Kill List, will direct the first two episodes of the next series of the show. "To have a unity that runs eight years... it's pretty crazy," he said. "It seems to me the episodes that we're doing now seem more like classic Who."
Capaldi, who is best-known for playing the ferocious and foul-mouthed spin doctor Malcolm Tucker in political comedy The Thick Of It, is set to star in his first series of Doctor Who this year (2014).
