Bummed about our Chimp-In-Chief's first legal election? Turn that frown into a photo and submit it to Sorry Everybody!
... and don't forget that half of the country agrees that Dubya's a terrible Commander-In-Chief. Also, keep in mind that 51% of the vote is not a mandate, at least not in reality (in the Administration's reality it is, but their distrust of facts and truth is well-documented).
First up was the always awesome psyche-distorto-freakout-jam of Comets On Fire, followed by the ridiculously out of control rockin' punk of Fleshies. After these two local acts, the visiting teams got a chance to strut their stuff. Slim Cessna's Auto Club wowed everyone with their Texas-fried country-goth-rock-twang-abilly. A.T.'s latest signing The Bellrays were next, and made good on their reputation as one of the hottest live acts in the land with their patented vision of "Maximum Rock and Soul"!
Finally, the headliners- Jello Biafra with The Melvins- hit the stage, facing a sweaty, warmed-up, enthusiastic capacity crowd. They tore the roof off, stomped it into a bajillion pieces, then reassembled it with the combo of Jello's razor-sharp vocals and the Melvins power-tool tuneage! A Rock Miracle, to be sure, and one which pleased the leathered and lathered multitudes in attendence!
We had a great time, and we'd like to thank all the fans who came out and the 5 great bands who really made it happen. Props to Slim's for a smooth, rockin' Halloween, and a "Best Costume" award to the ape-girl (who was really a guy) with the AT Bat tattoo in the middle of her/his back. There were a ton of rad costumes, so competition was fierce! -Jesse the Male Mail
P.S.- We've all been busy since Halloween with the whole election thing, hence the late posting. We have some of the limited edition posters we had at the show available now through this site. We'll have the last of the 25th Anniversary shirts up on-line soon also.

Bush tops film badman poll
Thursday October 28, 2004
George Bush may be neck-and-neck in the polls with John Kerry, but there is at least one survey that puts him on top - as cinema's best baddie.
The American president was awarded the dubious honour of Movie Villain of the Year for his part in Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 by 10,000 film fans polled by Total Film magazine.
Mr Bush beat stiff competition from Spider-Man 2's Doctor Octopus, played by Alfred Molina, and from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre's wannabe lumberjack, Leatherface. Even Gollum from The Lord of the Rings and Kill Bill assassin Elle Driver, played by Daryl Hannah, proved no match for the White House's current tenant.
Total Film editor Matt Mueller said Mr Bush was "absolutely terrifying" in Fahrenheit 9/11: "He looked like a man who had lost control - the famous scene where he sits there in a school, absolutely paralysed, after being told about the twin towers, is just one example.
"Lots of people saw [the movie] and movie-goers are saying that there's no one like George Bush to strike fear into people's hearts."
For immediate release:

"During Schwarzenegger's address, peace activist and Code Pink founder Medea Benjamin was on the floor of the convention. As she was standing less than 20 feet away from Vice President Dick Cheney, she unfurled a pink banner that read "Pro-Life: Stop the Killing in Iraq." Security officials quickly approached her and told her to put it away. Medea responded by saying it was a pro-life banner. Minutes later, a Secret Service man came up and asked for her press credentials. She stalled for a few minutes cheering Schwarzenegger along with the Republican crowd.
She was soon surrounded by more security officials. When she realized she was being escorted off the convention floor. Medea Benjamin turned to Vice President Dick Cheney who was sitting 20 feet away and repeatedly yelled "Stop the killing in Iraq." Secret service members carried her upside down off the convention floor.
What Medea Benjamin said to Mr. Cheney as she was carried off of the convention floor:MEDEA BENJAMIN: Mr. Cheney, stop the killing in Iraq! Mr. Cheney, stop the killing in Iraq! Mr. Cheney, how much money did you make on the war? Mr. Cheney, how much money did you make on the war? Stop the killing in Iraq! Stop the killing in Iraq! Stop the killing in Iraq! Stop the killing in Iraq!"

Held on the heels of the annual SEMA show in early November, the Optima Ulitimate Street Car Challenge is making noise and won't be slowing down anytime soon. When you take the upper echelon muscle cars from around the country and have them play on the same grounds, you're sure to have a spectacle on your hands. While it's currently an invitation-only event, we made sure to get you the complete low-down of how the event unfolded.
Forty of the top street-driven cars in the country were invited to duke it out in four categories to illustrate the best-of-the-best at the Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch in Pahrump, Nevada. The categories were developed to highlight and discover the vehicle with the best overall design, build quality, and performance. So what's the point? Bragging rights, of course. Vehicles and drivers let it all hang out on the road course, autocross event, 0-to-60-to-0 trial for acceleration and braking, and finally judged for styling. To find the overall winner, the lowest cumulative time for each vehicle, combined with styling points (1-10 scale-1 being the best and 10 being the worst) would determine the finishing order.
A number of manufacturers were there, including Detroit Speed, RideTech, Spectre, BFGoodrich, and Baer Brakes. While Steven Rupp (owner of "Bad Penny"), associate editor of our sister publication Camaro Performers, almost landed the overall victory, a '66 Shelby Cobra owned by Bruce Cambern took home the '09 OPTIMA Ultimate Street Car honor. From all of us at Chevy High Performance, congratulations to each of the participants and see you next year!

Adapted from a recipe by Cooking Star, Mindy Kobrin
This Roasted Beet Salad is served with a tangy Mediterranean dressing inspired by a Greek Skordalia recipe I learned during travels. I just fell in love with the creamy sauce. It makes everything from pita chips to grilled vegetables taste better! Plus, beets are a great source of phytonutrients that support anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and detoxification properties.
Roasted Beet SaladPrepared in 35 minutes of less
6 baby beets or 1 bunch fresh regular beets, tops sliced off ½-inch above stem1-2 Tbs Extra Virgin olive oil
Preheat oven to 350°F.Place prepared beets onto a ridged baking sheet. Toss with enough oil to evenly coat all sides. Add a bit of water to baking sheet. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Test doneness of beets by inserting a paring knife into one's center. If the knife slips out easily, it is done. Otherwise cook covered beets another 5-10 minutes.Cool beets before removing outer peel by rubbing off roasted skins with a paper towel.Place roasted beets in a medium bowl. Toss with creamy Garlic-Almond Dressing. Allow to marinate for 5 minutes before serving.
Serves 4.
3 slices rustic white bread, soaked in filtered water then squeezed dry with paper towels¼ cup garlic cloves, peeled3 Tbs red wine vinegar2 lemons, juiced, approximately 6 Tbs fresh lemon juice1 tsp Sea salt2/3 cup of blanched almonds¾ cup Extra Virgin olive oil½ tsp ground white pepper
Place the rustic bread slices into a food processor. Add red wine vinegar, garlic, lemon juice and pulse to thoroughly combine ingredients. Add salt, white pepper and almonds. Blend. While food processor runs on low speed, drizzle in olive oil until the mixture's consistency is creamy. Taste and adjust seasonings to your preference. Makes 2 cups. Dressing can be stored in an airtight container for approximately 5 days.
KosherEye is aware that many do not use almonds at Rosh Hashanah. For those readers, save this delicious recipe for Sukkot.

PANAMA CITY BEACH — High surf poses a big threat for tiny turtles, and this season they've felt a double-blow.
As with Tropical Storm Debby, Turtle Watch member Kennard Watson expects storm surge from Tropical Storm Isaac to push the number of hatchlings down. Forecasters on Monday predicted 3 to 5-foot storm tides for— storm surge at high tide — from Isaac in Bay County.
Watson is placing special concern on three nests housing critically endangered leatherback sea turtle eggs.
"The three leatherback nests we have on Panama City Beach are the first ever recorded" in the area, Watson said. "I'm hopeful that at least one of these nests hatches."
Watson said one of the leatherback nests, located near the M.B. Miller County Pier, is expected to hatch any day now.
"The early season storm definitely hurt us," Watson said. "It's kind of a double blow for us; it's going to hurt."
With a total of 20 nests marked on Panama City Beach at risk, Watson and the Turtle Watch team are preparing to respond to nests that may be unearthed by high surf this week. In addition to the three leatherback nests, Turtle Patrol also has 17 loggerhead nests marked.
"The nests can handle some flooding, so minor storm surge shouldn't be a problem," Watson said. "It's going to all rely on the severity of the storm surge."
Nests closer to the water present the biggest concern.
Watson said while Turtle Watch's permit forbids the team from removing the eggs from the beach, he said it does allow the team to move the eggs and rebury them in a location farther from the water line.
"We'll respond to salvage eggs that are exposed to high surf," Watson said. "Basically, we'll rebury eggs that are exposed. … Weather dependent, we'll be out there."
Turtle Watch, an affiliate of the St. Andrew Bay Resource Management Association, surveys the beach every morning through Sept. 1. The beach also is patrolled nightly by volunteers, who will continue to monitor through the end of nesting season. Watson has been involved with Turtle Watch since its beginning in 1991.
Best season ever
Although this storm season has been a bad one for sea turtle nests on Panama City Beach, Turtle Watch members still have located a record number of nests this season.
"We've found 42 nests this year; that's a record for us," Watson said. "It's the best (season) ever. The previous record was set in 2000 when we found 38 loggerhead nests. Even with the storms, it's been great; it really has been."
Of those 42 nests, 16 have hatched so far, producing 1,139 hatchlings.
Three nests were lost during Tropical Storm Debby and a few others flooded but still managed to hatch.
Watson said beach nourishment has helped protect the nests from this summer's storms.
"Beach nourishment has provided a fairly wide beach," Watson said. "As far as (Tropical Storm) Debby, the beach handled the surge from that storm pretty well."
Bay County Tourism Development Council (TDC) Executive Director Dan Rowe said beach nourishment projects are conducted on an as-needed basis, and the TDC would be looking at another project if a significant amount of sand is lost this hurricane season.
The last major beach nourishment project in Bay County was conducted after the 2005 hurricane season, the most active season on record.
The TDC recently submitted an application for renewal of its 15-year permit to stabilize the 17.5 miles of beach between Phillips Inlet and St. Andrews State Park.
"We're just preparing for the future," Rowe said. "It all depends — the beach is fairly stable — it really depends on the conditions that happen in the future."


text: I'll share the same sentiments as some others have posted already and say that I'm disappointed that absolutely NOTHING of interest happened. There were no shocking finishes, no major heel/face turns, no "Holy Shit!" spots, nothing whatsoever. Any fan, whether casual or diehard, could have predicted everything that happened tonight with 100% accuracy. Sure Punk/Taker, Brock/HHH and The Shield winning were cool, but the fact is that other than Living Colour performing "Cult of Personality" for Punk's entrance, I don't think I'll remember a single moment of 'Mania when I wake up tomorrow. Now usually I'm fine with being disappointed with WWE PPVs as we've seen a steady stream of flops over the past couple of years and I've become used to it, however I expected better from "The Grandest Spectacle in Sports Entertainment".

Interpretive Handbook
9316 :
Urinalysis, Microscopic, Osmolality, and pH
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
The kidney plays a key role in the excretion of by-products of cellular metabolism and regulation of water, acid-base, and electrolyte balance. Urine is produced by filtration of plasma in the renal glomeruli followed by tubular secretion and/or reabsorption of water and other compounds.
Abnormalities detected by urinalysis may reflect either urinary tract diseases (eg, infection, glomerulonephritis, loss of concentrating capacity) or extrarenal disease processes (eg, glucosuria in diabetes, proteinuria in monoclonal gammopathies, bilirubinuria in liver disease).
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Screening for urinary tract diseases and some nonrenal diseases
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
RBCs, WBCs, renal tubular epithelial (RTE) cells, casts, squamous cells, parasites, fat, bacteria, and pathologic crystals are reported. RBCs are almost always indicative of glomerulonephritis. WBC casts are typically an indication of acute interstitial nephritis or pyelonephritis, but can also be seen in glomerulonephritides because there is often a component of accompanying interstitial nephritis. Fatty casts and free fat are often seen in patients with nephrotic syndrome or other glomerular diseases associated with significant proteinuria. Granular casts are observed in a number of disorders and are thought to be formed from partially degraded cellular casts, or are protein-derived casts. Hyaline casts are not thought to be indicative of any disease process, but increased numbers may be seen in concentrated urine specimens. Waxy casts and broad casts are most often observed in advanced renal failure. Increased numbers of RTE cells are indicators of renal tubular injury. Increased numbers of RTE cells may be caused by drugs with renal tubular toxicity (eg, cyclosporine A, aminoglycosides, cisplatin, radiocontrast media, acetaminophen overdose), interstitial nephritis, hypotension (surgical, sepsis, obstetric complications), and heme pigments from hemoglobinuria or myoglobinuria from rhabdomyolysis (eg, alcoholism, heat stroke, seizures, sickle cell trait). Newborns often shed RTE cells in their urine.
Based on careful review of all available published outcome studies with results of detailed hematuria workups within actual patient populations, a panel from the American Urological Association recommends that patients with >3 RBCs per high-power field (hpf) in 2 out of 3 properly collected urine specimens should be considered to have microhematuria, and hence evaluated for possible pathologic causes. However, the panel also noted that there is no absolute lower limit for hematuria, and risk factors for significant disease should be taken into consideration before deciding to defer an evaluation in patients with only 1 or 2 RBCs per hpf. High-risk patients, especially those with a history of smoking or chemical exposure, should still be considered for a full urologic evaluation even after 1 properly performed urinalysis documented the presence of at least 3 RBCs per hpf. In certain patients, even 1 or 2 RBCs per hpf might merit evaluation. The presence of squamous cells suggests that the sample may not have been an optimal, clean-catch specimen and could be contaminated with skin flora.
Osmolality is an index of the solute concentration of osmotically active particles, principally sodium, chloride, potassium, and urea. Glucose can contribute significantly to the osmolality when present in substantial amounts. The ability of the kidney to maintain both tonicity and water balance of the extracellular fluid can be evaluated by measuring the osmolality of the urine. More information concerning the state of renal water handling or abnormalities of urine dilution or concentration can be obtained if urinary osmolality is compared to serum osmolality. Normally, the ratio of urine osmolality to serum osmolality is 1.0 to 3.0, reflecting a wide range of urine osmolality. The reference ranges are as follows:
0 to 12 months: 50 to 750 mOsm/kg
>12 months: 150 to 1,150 mOsm/kg
Please note above the age of 20 years there is an age-dependent decline in the upper reference range of approximately 5 mOsm/kg/year.
Urine pH is affected by diet, medications, systemic acid-base disturbances, and renal tubular function. pH may affect urinary stone formation. For example, urine pH <6.0 may help reduce the tendency for calcium phosphate stones and pH >6.0 may reduce the tendency for uric acid stone formation.
Ketones are produced during metabolism of fat. Increased ketones may occur during physiological stress conditions such as fasting, pregnancy, strenuous exercise, and frequent vomiting. Ketones may appear in the urine in large amounts, before serum ketone is elevated, under the following conditions:
-Diabetic individuals who are unable to efficiently utilize glucose due to a lack of insulin
-Individuals with other abnormalities of carbohydrate or lipid metabolism
Bilirubinuria is an indicator of liver disease and biliary tract obstruction.
Hemoglobinuria is an indicator of intravascular hemolysis. The test is equally sensitive to myoglobin as to hemoglobin (Hgb). The presence of Hgb, in the absence of RBCs, is consistent with intravascular hemolysis. RBCs may be missed if lysis occurred prior to analysis; the absence of RBCs should be confirmed by examining a fresh specimen. The presence of myoglobin may be confirmed by MYOU / Myoglobin, Urine.
Reducing Substances:
Urine can contain a variety of reducing substances (sugars [glucose, galactose, sucrose, fructose, lactose, maltose], ascorbic acid, drugs, etc), compounds so termed because of their ability to reduce cupric ions. The primary reducing substances of medical significance are the sugars, glucose (diabetes) and galactose (galactosemia). Other sugars may be found but are not of clinical significance. Because glucose also is detected by glucose-specific dipstick reagents, the test for reducing substances is performed to detect galactose.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Elevated specific gravity, elevated protein, and large amounts of ascorbic acid may cause false-negative results. Oxidizing substances such as hypochlorite and chlorine may cause false-positive results. The test is equally sensitive to hemoglobin (Hgb) and to myoglobin. The presence of Hgb, in the absence of RBCs, is consistent with intravascular hemolysis. RBCs may be missed if lysis occurred prior to analysis; the absence of RBCs should be confirmed by examining a fresh specimen. The presence of myoglobin may be confirmed by MYOU / Myoglobin, Urine.
Reducing Substances:
This test reacts with sufficient quantities of any reducing substance in the urine; it is not specific for glucose. Urine specimens with low specific gravity that contain glucose may give slightly-elevated results. Metabolites of some sulfa drugs and methapyrilene compounds may interfere with the sensitivity of the test. X-ray contrast media in urine produces reduced and false-negative glucose results.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

Back to the Basics... in Perspective
So why the heck am I posting about it here, in a blog dedicated to the NXT?
One of the things that's easy to overlook when working with something like the NXT is that when you have your hands around a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail. The NXT is a powerful microcomputer, that can read multiple sensors and run lots of motors, and so there's a tendency to think that's the way to solve a problem.... any problem. That's not usually the case. Sometimes, mechanical solutions will work, and work better, than some complex programmed solution. Even complex robots often depend on intricate, imaginative mechanical tricks and aspects to work right. This often seems to get lost with people when they start using the NXT (or even advanced users), and it bears repeating - look for mechanical solutions and techniques in addition to, and to support, "intelligent" functions.
This was driven home to me recently in a post on NXTasy about a maze-solving robot. This user wanted to know (more to the point, apparently wanted working NXT-G code) for a robot that would use 3 US sensors to find its way though a simple maze. Some people opinioned that the language chosen was perhaps a problem. The thread originator had even gone out and worked out a detailed truth table type structure to solve the problem... but in the rush to make a functional solution, they had apprently not noticed that there was no need to use three sensors in the case they originally wanted - two would suffice, & as a result their proposed solution was a good deal more complex than it needed to be. And to this day, the best LEGO solution I've seen to this used nothing more than a single motor, some wheels and rubber bands... and easily beat every "robotic" solution tested that day in a fairly well-respected field of competitors, RCX and NXT-based, against folks like myself and Steve Hassenplug.
Yep, it's a robotics set. That doesn't mean it's always the solution are "more sensors, more motors, more memory, more speed". Sometimes, it means the best solutions... involve more thought.

I could not agree more! There are many problems that can be solved with a little mechanical cleverness. These solutions almost always have an elegance not found in the computerized equivalents.

I've seen a lot of NXT-creations where the NXT was nothing more than a batterybox!
In search of clever mechanical solutions I gave myself a challenge:
Make robots with nothing more than one motor, a batterybox and two special technic elements like turntables, differentials, switches, etc. (Plus normal technic-Lego, of course.)
Two examples:

Wow. That clockwork machine that turns itself off is really elegant. I also really liked Menno Gorter's walking PF raprot (the second video).
Can anyone recommend any resources on making better mechanisms with Lego? Where do you go after simple gearing up and down? (Anyone have an opinion if it is easier to make complicated mechanisms with the studded Lego bricks than with studless design?)
Lastly, Brian, do you have any more details on the maze solving mechanism? I'm impressed that someone was able to express a solution mechanically that beat programmed robots!

Clinton: there are a number of interesting "stupid" designs out there. This one is an oldie but a goody:
The maze runner I spoke of I don't have pictures of handy, but the idea was simple. It ran forward using a stand-off wheel on a bumper along the right side. If that wheel was rolling along the wall, it just drove forward. If there was no wall there, a rubber band could pull the entire front steering to the right, turing the corner. There was another extension in front of and slightly left of the front wheel, so that if the rover ran straight into a wall, the contact with the wall in front would pivot the front wheel to the left, turning it. KISS.

good post.
One of the most important things an engineer should be capable of is keeping things as complex as required, not more (Occam's Razor).
The simple engineering solutions are the ones that have true beauty,a beauty humans are able to recognize instantly with some sort of asthetic sense we all share.

Comments about Snap-n-Learn™ Number Bugs:
Overall, the quality of the product is good. However, we received a bad batch. We received two red heads with the #3, and we were missing the blue head with the #4 on it. It messes up the set. It's a good product if you get the right pieces. So, for that reason, I can't recommend it. We received it as a gift.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I used these bugs as a game for my child's birthday party. Each child had to put together a bug and then tell me the color of the bug and how many dots the bug had. The kids didn't want to put them down. My 3 year old plays with them daily!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Don't take away the bugs!
By Jen, Mom of three
from Southern California
This is the first time in a year and a half of therapy Luke has ever cried over a toy. When it was time for his therapist to go he had a melt down. He just kept saying, "Lady Bug, Lady Bug!" I guess they were pretty cool. Each bug came in three parts. They snapped together. They each had a number and an equal number of dots on their back.They were challenging to pull apart. You could stack them up. Good for counting and motor skills. Luke enjoyed thinking out side the box and creating wild mixed up bugs, then he would pull them all apart and match them by color again. His therapist said this was very good. He was challenging himself and thinking for himself. I think I'm going to have to buy him a set of these. They are made by learning resources. I was just visiting their website. Wow, they have a lot of really cool stuff.

Somewhat disappointed
You used to sell a similar wallet where the bill section opened inside (the credit card section). This wallet is built strangely with the bill section opening to the outside. It should open on the inside as in the past. Also you failed to include a plastic photo insert. Price is also too high.

I purchased this wallet 10 years ago at Nordstroms. There is a tiny amount of visible wear on the corners. It's not as pretty as it was the day I bought it, but I expect to have it for many more years.

Dr. Walter Herzberg, assistant professor of Bible and Professional and Pastoral Skills at The Jewish Theological Seminary, has devoted the bulk of his career to working directly with students in the United States and Israel. He teaches introductory and advanced courses in Bible and traditional biblical commentary in The Rabbinical School, the H. L. Miller Cantorial School and College of Jewish Music, and the William Davidson Graduate School of Jewish Education of JTS, and guides classroom and online students in the reading of the Bible by using a methodological approach and integrating modern literary close reading techniques with the study of traditional Jewish commentary.
Knowing that what he teaches will add far-reaching benefits to the personal and professional lives of his students, Dr. Herzberg's primary goals are to facilitate the study of Bible and Torah lishmah (for its own sake) and the educational process. He teaches students "what they cannot teach themselves," and helps them become fluent readers of the Hebrew Bible and independent, analytical close readers of the texts. In 2009, Dr. Herzberg was the first recipient of the Chancellor's Award for Outstanding Teaching in The Rabbinical School.
Dr. Herzberg walks well and determinedly in the footsteps of his mentors: Bible studies innovator Dr. Nehama Liebowitz, noted for her unique pedagogical methods and preference for the title teacher over the more prestigious professor; and Dr. Cyrus Herzl Gordon, world-class scholar of Near Eastern culture and ancient languages, who was known for his skills in teaching texts to students at different levels of readiness at the very same time. Much to the delight of his JTS students, Dr. Herzberg quotes his mentors often, and much to the students' advantage, he has modified his mentors' theories to fit his own evolved perspective. Applying the resulting ideas-and his own internalization of the Socratic Method-to the questions and topics he so carefully formulates for his classes, Dr. Herzberg's daily efforts are changing Jewish thought, culture, and religious practice as he intrigues eager minds. And yes, he is proud to be called teacher.
A list of Dr. Herzberg's accomplishments includes being senior lecturer and chair of the department of Jewish Studies at the University of Judaism in Los Angeles (now the American Jewish University), and an instructor of Bible, commentaries, and biblical Hebrew grammar at Jerusalem's Pardes Institute of Jewish Studies, Hebrew University, Hebrew Union College, and New York University's Institute of Hebrew Culture and Education. Earlier, he was educational director of the Commission on Jewish Education of the United Synagogue of America (now United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism), and a visiting professor at JTS.
Dr. Herzberg earned a bachelor's degree in History and a master's degree in Jewish Education from Yeshiva University; a master's degree in English as a Second Language from Teachers College, Columbia University; and a doctorate in Bible and Near Eastern Studies from New York University (NYU). He was also a postdoctoral fellow at NYU and in the Jerusalem Fellowship program, and studied at Hebrew University.
At JTS, Dr. Herzberg works closely with Dr. Nitza Krohn, assistant professor of Hebrew Language and director of the Hebrew Language Program, developing a curriculum in which the teaching of Bible, biblical commentary, and Hebrew is coordinated. They use prepublication materials in their classes, and partner with the Columbia Center for New Media Teaching and Learning to augment their online materials. For two years, Dr. Herzberg has taught the Davidson School's Pedagogical Skills course in Bible and biblical commentary with Meredith Katz, Jim Joseph Senior Scholar of Jewish Education, and Sara Shapiro-Plevan, adjunct lecturer of Jewish Education, in close consultation with Dr. Jeffrey Kress, associate professor and area coordinator of Jewish Education and academic director of the Experiential Learning Initiative. Dr. Herzberg and the group create links between their parallel courses so that students can develop an appreciation for and particular skills in the process of translating Jewish texts for pedagogical use. He also teaches an online course for The Davison School on Parshanut, and, for The Rabbinical School, a class on the homiletical uses of the commentaries. At the H. L. Miller Cantorial School, he teaches a course on the weekly parashah in a course that considers the evolving role of the cantor.
Dr. Herzberg is currently working with Professor Steven Kepnes, Finard Professor in Jewish Studies and Religion at Colgate University, on a book titled Reading the Bible for Meaning: A Theology of Biblical Exegesis (Academic Studies Press, August 2014), which will show how, in a close reading of the texts and different commentators, one can begin to reveal or discover the implied theology of those commentators.

Of all the historic venues around the world, Nurburgring has received more attention of late than any other. Serving as a comparative testing facility for many of the world's fastest production cars, it was only a matter of time before this highly capable '68 Camaro SS joined them.
Initially, Clarence Cazimero had simply planned to have his favorite ride "cleaned up a bit" with upgrades to the drivetrain, new paint, and interior improvements, yet within a year-and-a half his Camaro underwent a total transformation. Fitted with a powerful big-block Chevy and highly capable underpinnings, this amazing machine has already been flown to Germany to test its limits on the famed Autobahn and quite possibly at the "Ring."
To achieve the desired results, Cazimero considered several shops to handle the transformation, and in the end contracted Christopher Sondles, Ryan Fahringer, and the crew at Woody's Hot Rodz (woodyshotrodz.com) in Bright, Indiana.
The first stage of this project came with alterations to the original chassis, including the addition of a 2x4-inch front clip from Art Morrison Enterprises. This addition brought with it C5 Corvette A-arms and spindles, Mustang II rack-and-pinion steering, Strange Engineering coilover shocks, and a new level of rigidity never before realized with the factory package. Additional upgrades come by way of large 14-inch diameter Wilwood brake rotors and lightweight six-piston alloy calipers. The combination scrubs off speed with amazing ease.
To keep the rear of this Camaro in check, AME's triangulated four-bar arrangement was combined with another pair of coilovers to locate a specially assembled 9-inch Ford axle housing from Strange Engineering. Fitted with Strange SS axles, the 3.70:1 positraction gearing ensures power heats the pavement. To make sure these components can be tested to the fullest, a set of BFGoodrich G-Force T/A KDWs were united with Foose Nitrous II rims; 17x8s shod with 225/45ZR17s in front and 18x9s wrapped in 275/40ZR18s to plant the ponies out back.
Before the body was joined with the chassis, a strong, streetable drivetrain was fitted behind a 454ci Chevy from BES Race Engines in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. Starting with a cast-iron block and GM Performance crankshaft, Eagle rods were joined with Federal Mogul pistons and rings to initialize a manageable 9:1 compression ratio beneath GM Performance cylinder heads. To maximize airflow, a Competition Cams mild hydraulic roller camshaft was chosen with 0.512-inch lift on both sides and duration staggered between 218 degrees on the intakes and 224 degrees for the exhaust.
External additions include an Edelbrock water pump feeding a Be Cool aluminum radiator and and Edelbrock intake manifold fitted with a Holley 770 cfm Street Avenger four-barrel that balances performance with efficiency. As the mixture is evenly distributed, an MSD ignition system lights it off before Patriot headers with 17/8-inch primary pipes and 3-inch collectors vent the remains through a custom exhaust system tuned through Hushpower mufflers. This combination produced 446 hp at a relatively low 4,900 rpm and an impressive 526 lb-ft of torque at 3,800 rpm-numbers that will no doubt put some moves on unwitting Porsche Turbos and AMG Mercedes it leaves in the mirror.

Remember the hand that rocks the cradle..-rules the world! Human Relations Club Meets With Board Representatives of the Beth-page High School Human Relations Club met with the Board of Education for nearly two hours Tuesday night (May 5) in the Administration building (Stewart and Cherry Ave.). They came to hear the Board's reasons for vetoing a limited exchange program between Wyandanch and Bethpage high schools. The Club had initiated the idea for the program. While the Board and representatives talked, some 35 student supporters staged a mild sympathy sit-in outside in the ball. Later, Board president Joseph Dawson reported that the Board had agreed to publicize the exact nature of the abortive project. This would be done to counter the community's misunderstanding of the program's limited scope, he explained. According to Judy Mitchell, president of the Club, he Board was "sympathetic", but did not make any committment to press for the project in the future. Dawson agreed that no committment had been made. He pointed out, however, that the proposal might be re-introduced sometime in the future, although definitely not this year. The publicity will include information in the next district newsletter. Miss Mitchell reported she was "optimistic" after the meeting. She stated she would wait for the next educational bulleting before making a final judgement of the Board's sincerity. Other representatives were not so hopeful. Said Karen Kulp, vice-president of the Club, "I'm not too optimistic that anything will be done." Miss Kulp argued that the meeting was not necessary to get the promise of information in the newsletter. Contending that little had been accomplished, she conceded that "we seemed to be communicating, which is good, I guess." After-the closed meeting, the Board held a brief public session to fix budget and election procedures. Important dates to remember are: May 26: Deadline, for filing petitions for School Board candidacy. Signatures from 25 district residents are needed to enter one of three School Board and one Library Board contests. Petitions may be picked up from the district clerk. May 27: First pie-budget hearing. Originally scheduled for May 28, this dale was changed because of a music festival in the High School auditorium the same night. Wednesday, June 3: Registration for School Board and budget votes, from 2 to 9 p.m. Residents who have voted in annual meetings since 1969, need A teachers' strike was averted in Bethpage Monday, but the president of the teachers' union warned that this might only mean the strike would be postponed until next week. Meanwhile, the district's professional negotiator assailed the union chief for "bargaining in the newspapers" and held but hope that a settlement would be reached without a strike. According to union President Jack Murphy, the teachers voted May 4 not to strike the following week. Unable to give the exact tally, he agreed that a reported 117-70 no-vote was "probably close" to the right figure. Murphy explained that-the vote was against a formal strike, complete with picket lines. Thus, it did. not preclude an informal "siefc-ottt" May 11. Murphy added that the 70 pro-picket votes were "three tunes as many pickets as last year", when the union went out. According to a union flyer, "the faculty met and overwhelmingly rejected the Board's total money offer." Resolutions were also passed to send an ultimatum to the Board warning that "if after two negotiating meetings our just demands are not met-then we will have a strike vote." This strike vote would be held May 11. Murphy predicted a significant shift in favor of a strike if the May 11 vote is taken. Later in the week, the union president outlined the teacher complaints. These include an alleged low salary and fringe benefit schedule relative to the other 53 districts in Nassau County. Citing figures he believed were compiled by the New York State Teachers Association, Murphy contended that "the longer you're here, the more credits and degrees you earn, the less you're paid." Murphy's figures showed that teachers at the B.A. level receive roughly median salaries. However, they depicted Bethpage teachers with graduate credits and degrees, and with 5 to 10 years experience, as a few hundred dollars below the median, and generally about $1,000 below the top According to Murphy, meat career teachers move beyond the B. A. level so that the median' standing for that category did not affect many of them. In some categories, Bethpage teachers were listed very close to the bottom. Murphy argued that the Board's Monday offer would have put Bethpage "smack at the bottom" in many categories. Asserting that the a to reward^— union chief can "relatively tranned," Th» is because moat districts wifl not give a teacher more than 8 to Mr years seniority credit when he transfers from another district, he said. Murphy pointed out that teachers were upset by a "cumulative loss." Thus, he argued, a teacher consistently behind several hundred dollars for several years would lose thousands of dollars during that time, even if the situation were rectified by P new contract. Murphy, als'o attacked the district's fringe benefit program, which he called the worst in Nassau County. In addition to raising the district's funding of Health Insurancer-"basically our only fringe benefit"-from 70 percent to 90 percent, the teachers want a life insurance and dental plan, and higher sabbatical pay, he reported. Murphy declared that the union proposals would not make Bethpage first in any categories, but only "competitive." He expressed hope that the Board would move at least toward a 9 percent raise, the sane settlement it reportedly reached with service employees. AI DiMaria, the Board's professional negotiator, presented the Board's case only after learning of Mmphy^s statements to the press, a move he criticized. DiMaria declared that the negotiating mechanism should be the bargaining table, since publicity "doesn't present a realistic picture of what's going on." However, he decided to apeak since "the other side" had already presented «•»« specific salary scale Previously aiidtne negotiator, teachers had merely demanded a stn ptsce position among the County's 54 districts. Since the exact figures on i\-' settlements in Nassau might v. be available until next fall, a finai package for Bethpage could not be ready by budget time, nor before' teachers left for the summer, he argued. DiMaria added that the Board had responded to Monday's union offer, and that "give and take" bargaining was proceeding. "There is an agreement in the works, and soon", he declared, noting that "now...we can bargain intelligently." He said it was "a reasonable expectation, based upon recent affirmative developments", that the settlement would be reached soon enough for inclusion in the budget Neighborhood Fair May 16 the Girl Scouts of Neighborhood VI, Bethpage, will run their first neighborhood fair. The fair will he held at the Bethpage Fire House, Broadway, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. There will be arts and crafts for sale which have been made by our many troops, as well as games for the children and a special added attraction, a puppet show, put on by our own Senior Troop 22. There will be a 5 cent admission fee which includes the puppet show. Proceeds from the fair will go to purchase camping equipment for use by all our Bethpage troops. . v not re-register. June 8: Second pre-budget hearing. June 9: Budget and school Board balloting. Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Formal budget hearing will follow the voting. GETTING THE HEART FACTS are Bethpage Community Chairman fur the recent Heart Fund drive, Salvatore Mosca, (left) and the Hon. Angelo D. Roncallo, (Massapeuua) Nassau County Heart Sunday Chairman. The smiles reflect reports of progress being made in combating man's No. 1 killer. Despite such positive progress, much research still needs t- **e carried on. Mosca wishes to thank all Bethpage residents for their generous support of the Heart Sunday drive (which netted some 1950) and adds that it is not too late to make a contribution to your local volunteer or directly to Heart Fund headquarters, 365 Willis Ave., Mineola.
