Another Happy Super Comp Customer
Hi...I'm headed into my sixth season running a PA Super Comp. I've taken full advantage of the tranny's lifetime warrantee and free freshen ups. I've mostly dealt with Bill and he's been great to deal with. I've beat the daylights out of my tranny and it's helped me stay at the top of my class at New England Dragway. As a result I recommend the Super Comp to anyone who'll listen. Thanks for the reliability and support.

It's truly something to behold when you see 3000 hot rods cruising the back roads of the South.

Speedo Interface
Performance Automatic is proud to announce its latest addition to our ever growing line of electronic transmissions accessories.
The SGI-5 Universal Signal Interface Unit can handle nearly any of your electric speedometer signal conversion and calibration issues. The SGI-5 can recalibrate 2,000 pulse per mile (ppm) through 250,000 ppm electronic speedometer pulse rates, either up or down. The SGI-5 is great for adjusting aftermarket and OEM electric speedometers on vehicles after changing rear end gears, tire sizes, or drivetrain changes affecting the speedometer.
The SGI-5 is used as either a signal multiplier (up to 4X) or signal divider (up to 125X), making this unit extremely flexible for almost any application. While the SGI-5 is intended to correct only the signal feeding the electronic speedometer, in many cases where a speed signal is shared on a databus, the SGI-5 can instead correct the signal feeding the engine and transmission computers.
If your vehicle is equipped with an anti-lock braking system (ABS), it is generally advised to ensure the signal reaching the ABS controller is not altered to eliminate any potential problems affecting control algorithms within the system. Some vehicles also utilize the output shaft speed to calculate transmission slip and lock-up. When a signal feeding the PCM is altered, this may cause the PCM to detect a constant slip. Consulting a service manual may be of assistance in determining the signal routing within the vehicle if the SGI-5 is decided to be used in a situation such as this.
Unit measures 4" x 2.5" x 1" and is designed to be mounted inside a vehicle

Electronic Cable Drive
Performance Automatic is proud to announce its latest addition to our ever growing line of electronic transmissions accessories.
Finally, the missing link between your muscle car's original, cable-driven speedometer and swapped-in electronic transmission!
Measuring a compact 5" x 4.1" x 2.15", the new Electronic Cable Drive, or ECD-100 for short, allows the use of a mechanical-cable speedometer to be used in conjunction with a modern drivetrain which provides only an electronic output. Available with provisions for GM thread-on, GM clip-on as well as Ford clip-on style cables, the ECD-100 offers the utmost in adaptability. Supplied cable is 36" in length.
Quiet operation from the powerful motor allows the user to place the module inside the cabin. The case is waterproofed, allowing it to alternatively be mounted under the hood, or even inside a fenderwell. Simple calibration with a remotely-mounted switch means there are no DIP-switches to hassle with; access to ECD module is not required! Industry-standard 'measured-mile' calibration as well as speed adjustment while driving, based on a GPS or other known-speedometer reading, keep setup ultra-simple.
The ECD-100 uses PID control of the cable speed to provide quick, smooth operation as well as preventing overdriving or damaging the speedometer needle. Consider this the most precise and easiest to use cable-drive unit on the market!

No cars in Speed Racer movie?
In an interview with Empire Online, producer Joel Silver said very little about the upcoming live-action Speed Racer movie from the Wachowski brothers (The Matrix), other than it's going to look really cool. Of course, he's producing the movie, so what else is he going to say, that it'll be a lot of flash and no substance? Silver also said they might not even use cars, which I would assume means they won't use any real cars, and do some kind of fancy CGI effects instead, which I think actually makes sense for this kind of movie.
Silver also had this to say in the interview, regarding the Wachowskis: "They said they'd never work again the Matrix sequels." If you can figure out what the hell that sentence is supposed to mean, you're a better person than I am. I'm trying to figure out why Joel Silver speaks like Yoda.

Friday movie roundup: Great Scott, he's back in space
Science-fiction fans have been waiting decades for this: Ridley Scott's return to the genre.
The man who made two of the classics of science-fiction â "Alien" (1979) and "Blade Runner" (1982) â is back with "Prometheus," which does have some links to "Alien," but holds up on its own as a sturdy action drama with some thoughtfulness, too. It follows two archaeologists (Noomi Rapace and Logan Marshall-Green) as they lead a space exploration to a moon pointed to by ancient Earth artifacts. Their thesis: An alien civilization came to our planet and populated it with, well, us. But the search gets complicated by nasty creatures outside, and the mixed motives of the android David (Michael Fassbender), which gives "Prometheus" some daring "2001" overtones. Scott gives us some hellacious action set pieces, a powerful female heroine in Rapace (the Swedish "Girl With the Dragon Tattoo"), and plenty of ideas to chew on.
Another franchise kick-start comes in "Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted," a frenetic and sometimes quite funny continuation of the computer-animated series about Alex the lion (voiced by Ben Stiller) and his Central Park Zoo buddies. This time, they leave Africa for Monte Carlo, and end up getting chased by a deadly animal-control officer (voiced by Frances McDormand), from whom they seek refuge by joining a group of circus animals. The story is a mishmash, mostly connecting one over-the-top sequence to the next. It's fun but forgettable.
This art-house slate is topped by the French comedy-drama "The Intouchables," a based-on-true-life story of a rich quadriplegic (Francois Cluzet) who forms a friendship with his live-in caretaker, an African-born ex-convict (Omar Sy). The story goes in predictable, Hallmark Channel, directions. But the easygoing chemistry between Cluzet and Sy makes it pleasant.
"Peace, Love & Misunderstanding" has a great cast, but then doesn't give them much to do. Jane Fonda, Catherine Keener and Elizabeth Olsen play three generations of women in one family. Keener plays an uptight Manhattan lawyer who brings the kids north to meet their hippie grandma (Fonda) in Woodstock â while Olsen plays Keener's college-age rebel daughter. Director Bruce Beresford ("Driving Miss Daisy") is good to his actresses, even with a underfed script.
Lastly, there is "The Turin Horse," Hungarian director Bela Tarr's tragedy of 19th-century farm life. The Cricket was unable to screen it this week, so you're on your own.

Assessment of the Occurrence and Potential Risks of EDCs that are pharmaceuticals or natural in Discharges from Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations
Project Purpose:
Research Questions: Determine how and to what degree human and wildlife populations are exposed to EDCs natural or from Pharmaceutical additions. Determine what effects are occurring in exposed human and wildlife populations. Determine what are the major sources and environmental fates of EDCs natural and/or pharmaceutical additives. Determine how unreasonable risk can be managed. This project is an integrated and cooperative ORD effort involving scientists from NERL, NRMRL, NHEERL, and extramural researchers funded through the NCER STAR grants program. The overall goal of the project is to characterize the magnitude and extent of the impact of estrogenic and androgenic hormones and pharmaceuticals in waste from CAFOS and determine the impact of current CAFO waste management strategies on the fate and effects of hormones and pharmaceuticals.
Project Description(s):
EPA investigators and STAR researchers will collaborate to:
Develop robust in vitro and analytical methods to identify and quantify compounds responsible for endocrine (e.g., androgenic, estrogenic) activity of complex CAFO discharges
Identify ecologically-relevant biomarkers in aquatic species (primarily fish) of exposure to estrogenic/androgenic CAFO discharges through use of state-of-the-art genomic approaches
Evaluate the environmental fate, transport and metabolism of CAFO-derived EDCs relative to occurrence in surface and ground waters
Assess possible ecological impacts of EDCs from CAFOs using a combination of laboratory and field studies
Evaluate capability of existing risk management technologies for CAFOs to reduce exposure to EDCs
These molecular changes will be linked with functional measurements of key hormones and enzymes that are part of the HPT pathway, all of which will be interpreted in the context of organismal-level effects.
Project Outcomes:
The results of this integrated project will contribute to site-specific risk assessments and development of risk management options for hormones in waste from CAFOs. Increased knowledge of risks associated with CAFOs as potential sources for hormones in surface and groundwater, waste, and soil will be used to support the current activities of the EPA Office of Water (OW) and Regional Offices with respect to the regulation of CAFOs. Regulations are currently being developed to control nutrient pollution from CAFOs.
In addition, some of the materials we will focus on in these studies (synthetic steroids) are regulated as veterinary pharmaceuticals. Currently pharmaceuticals in the environment, both human and veterinary, are considered an emerging topic of environmental concern by EPA and other Federal Agencies. This work will contribute directly to developing methods for, and better defining the occurrence of, pharmaceuticals used for livestock production.
Finally, in addition to steroidal EDCs, there are a number of other materials used for livestock production that are of potential environmental concern, such as pesticides and antibiotics (and nutrients?). The types of studies/approaches used for this work could very well be expanded to consider potential risks of EDCs.
Understand the occurrence, fate, transport, and effects of hormones used and generated by CAFOs.
Characterize CAFOs as one potential source of hormones in the environment.
Evaluate various waste management strategies for ways to reduce risk by eliminating potential routes of exposure, reducing available hormone concentrations, or increasing degradation of hormones in waste or the environment.
Publication of an ORD Report on Assessment of the Occurrence and Potential Risks of EDCs in Discharges from Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations.
Publication of results at international meetings.
The research will 1) characterize the types and amounts of hormones and metabolites in waste and effluent from CAFOs with animals of different livestock species, ages, and feeding regimens; 2) elucidate the environmental fate of steroids and their metabolites from stored and land applied wastes in soil and water; 3) determine how waste management practices influence the fate, environmental exposures, and effects of hormones from CAFOs; and 4) assess regional differences and the effect of seasonal variability on exposures and effects.
Publications from EPA-funded STAR grants and cooperative agreements are likely to be produced for up to five years after the completion of the project period (2010-2014).

Lottery mania: Newnan has measly $10,000 winnerFrom Staff and Wire Reports
While word is awaited on just who are the nation's newest multi-millionaires, Georgia Lottery Corporation confirmed at least one Powerball ticket purchased in Newnan for Wednesday night's drawing won a lower prize of $10,000.
Tandi Reddick of the Georgia Lottery told Morris News Service that Newnan was among cities where the $10,000 winning tickets were sold.
The search was on Thursday for the country's newest multi-millionaires, the holders of two tickets that matched all six numbers to claim a record $588 million Powerball jackpot, according to Associated Press reports.
Lottery officials said Thursday that the winning tickets matching all six numbers were sold at a convenience store in suburban Phoenix, Ariz., and a gas station just off Interstate 29 in a small northwestern Missouri town. Neither ticket holder had come forward Thursday afternoon.
The mystery fueled a giddy mood at the Trex Mart just outside Dearborn, Mo. — population 500 — as lottery officials and the media descended, AP reported.
Cashiers Kristi Williams and Kelly Blount greeted customers with big smiles and questions about whether they had bought the winning ticket. No one had come forward to claim the prize by late Thursday morning, Missouri Lottery officials said.
"It's just awesome," Williams said. "It's so exciting. We can't even work."
The winning ticket sold in Arizona was purchased at a 4 Sons Food Store in Fountain Hills, Ariz., state lottery officials said.
In Dearborn, Williams said several local people buy lottery tickets there regularly and workers were hoping it was one of their regulars.
But Baron Hartell, son of the store's owner, Lowell Hartell, said truck drivers moving in both directions on the north-south interstate that connects Kansas City to the Canadian border who frequent the store are also considered locals.
"Even the truck drivers who come around, we see them every day, so they all feel like all locals to us," he said.
It appeared the winners had yet to come forward, and it wasn't clear if the tickets had been bought by individuals or groups. Winners have 180 days to claim their share of the prize money.
The numbers drawn Wednesday night were 5, 16, 22, 23, 29. The Powerball was 6. The $587.5 million payout represents the second-largest jackpot in U.S. history.
"If you find you're holding the winning ticket, be sure you sign the back and put it in a safe place until you can take it to a Missouri Lottery office," said May Scheve Reardon, executive director of the Missouri Lottery. "You will also want to get some legal and financial advice before you claim."
Americans went on a ticket-buying spree in the run-up to Wednesday's drawing, the big money enticing many people who rarely, if ever, play the lottery to purchase a shot at the second-largest payout in U.S. history.
Tickets sold at a rate of 130,000 a minute nationwide — about six times the volume from a week ago.
That pushed the jackpot even higher, said Chuck Strutt, executive director of the Multi-State Lottery Association.
The jackpot rolled over 16 consecutive times without a winner.
In a Mega Millions drawing in March, three ticket buyers shared a $656 million jackpot. This remains the largest lottery payout of all time.

UPDATE - See below for Stephen Marks' comment
This event, Hosted by the Muslim Public Affairs Committee (MPACUK), was held at Friends House on Friday Evening 9th December 2005. It had originally been scheduled to take place at Westminster University, who eventually decided not to host it. The report below is not a word for word transcript from the debate but just based on some notes I made from the meeting that I attended.
Alan Hart: Author of Zionism: The Real Enemy of the Jews
Stephen Marks
Asghar Bukhari: Head of MPACUK
Sadia Hossein: MPACUK (moderating)
In the introduction it was made clear that Stephen Marks was speaking in a personal capacity and not as a representative of Jews for Justice for Palestinians, even though he had been billed as a representative of Jews for Justice.
The first speaker was Alan Hart (AH)
AH stated that he has spent six years writing and researching his book. He commented that in the Judeo/Christian world a debate about who must do what for peace in the Middle East is futile as the history that has been taught is "the" "Zionist" history. He stated that the aim of the book was to rewrite the Zionist mythology for the truth. AH then stated that he had very many Jewish friends. He commented that few of them could define "Zionism" so he gave his own definition as follows:
"Zionism is the Jewish Nationalism of some but not all Jews who colonised Palestine to create a state for some but not all Jews"
He stated that the colonisation of the land by the settlers required the Palestinians to be ethnically cleansed. He believes that it is possible to be passionately anti-Zionist without being antisemitic in any way.
He stated that during the summer he sent letters to the editors of various newspapers and journals offering an advance copy of his book, but he got no replies. He also stated that he wrote letters to the "top fourteen people at the BBC" but also got no replies. This, he claims, says something about the fear of offending "Zionism". It is not selling newspapers that make the media money but selling advertising to corporations that make money and the media do not want to upset their corporate advertisers. He admitted that the argument about corporate advertisers could not be used against the BBC, but did not specify why the BBC turned him down.
AH went on to state that he believed it was true that antisemitism was on the rise but the prime cause of the rise in antisemitism was the behaviour of Israel and Americas support for the "Zionist State". He does not believe any American President will ever act against Israel because if they even tried it, Israel would warn them to be careful as they have an atom bomb.
AH believes it to be a Zionist myth that Israel has ever been in danger of annihilation but a myth that the Zionists want the world to believe.
He believes that the main thing that needs to happen is that Jews in the Diaspora who constitute the majority of Jews in the world need to speak out. However they are silent for the following three reasons:
1. Many fear a second Holocaust and therefore perceive a need for Israel as the refuge of last resort.
2. Jews not living in Israel live in a ghetto and believe that the community they live in will provide them security
3. If they do speak out the Zionist lobby will organise the members of the community to condemn them.
He stated that a lot of people say that it is time to boycott Israel, but that if the boycott does not carry the support of the Diaspora Jews then the boycott will not happen. Jews will claim that anti-Semitism is happening again. The purpose of his book was therefore to end the silence of "the Jews".
He stated that he could not be accused of antisemitism and that if Zionists want to suppress debate then they call any criticism of "Zionism" or Israel antisemitic. If it comes from someone who is Jewish then they are called a self-hater. He wanted to make it clear that if anyone accused him of antisemitism then he would sue and has put the Board of Deputies on notice that he will sue if he is referred to as an antisemite. He continued that, as "the Zionists" cannot accuse him of antisemitism, they ignore him and use the media to suppress debate.
His next comment was that "Zionists" know how to play all the cards and used America as an example of the effect of "Jewish money" and "Jewish votes". He states that the Arab states could have trumped all of that if they were united, with oil and if they were united could have gone to America and used the oil card if Israel refused to go back to its 1967 borders. However the Arab states were not united and his book is therefore critical of the Arab regimes. It is on the side of "the people" irrespective of whether they are Jewish, Muslim or Christian.
The next speaker was Stephen Marks (SM)
Unfortunately my notes on SMs speech are not so detailed as in my opinion he kept jumping around in what he was saying and was not very coherent. However the main gist seemed to be about the creation of the State of Israel itself, which he clearly believed to be unjust. He pointed to the fact that before the creation of the State of Israel the United Nations Security Council had said that no-one should take any unilateral action. Israel, he said, made a unilateral declaration of a state in 1948. He argued that the creation of the State had constituted a criminal injustice. He commented that "real Zionists" go and live in Israel and "insurance policy Zionists" just support Israel. "Zionism" was about colonisation and not just about living in Israel and that the Jewish Diaspora have constructed the idea that "Zionism" is a psychological necessity.
Stephen Marks then went on to discuss various forms of antisemitism and said that he saw nothing in Alan Hart's book that could be understood as antisemitic. The only section that could possibly be seen as antisemitic is the discussion on "Jewish power and influence". But that in itself is not antisemitic if it is just a discussion of facts. For example he believed one should be able to discuss the "Zionist lobby" and how that lobby has shaped American policy without being accused of antisemitism.
The final speaker was Ashgar Bukhari
This was not so much a speech but more of a rant. The tone was set in his opening comments where he made clear that he was there to talk to the Muslims in the room. He said he was not going to talk about "Zionism" as the other speakers were far more knowledgeable than him. He wanted to talk about how Muslims must protect themselves from "Zionists". He stated that "Zionism" was a very powerful force and much if its aim was directed against "you" (addressing the Muslims). He went on at length how the Muslim community is not doing enough to defend itself against "Zionism" and that it was asleep to the danger. He mentioned that the Christian-Zionist lobby was "very very powerful indeed" and that most Muslims have no idea of this power. He went on to criticise Muslims for not doing enough to defend Islam, that it is not enough just to learn to wear the hijab. Muslims must also defend the hijab and the beard and cap.
He mentioned that Muslims could learn from "the Zionists", that the meeting was not held at Westminster University as "Zionist students" lobbied behind the scenes to ensure it didn't happen there. Muslim students on the other hand did nothing. "We are asleep".
He went on: "Brothers and sisters, there will be two things that will be your downfall: firstly, Muslim Institutions, and secondly, your own mindset.
"The reason why you are not mobilised is that no-one organises you. Mosques and Islamic societies do not mobilise you. Your leaders are not mobilising you so you are not mobilised. "
"When I was a little boy, I believed I could conquer the world, but when I got bigger and a brother is shot in Palestine, Muslims will shrug their shoulders and say 'what can we do?'" When it comes to their job Muslims can work hard at being doctors or lawyers but when it comes to defending Muslims they do nothing."
"Today Palestine, tomorrow your neck on the block. Never forget Bosnia!"
"Most people in the audience are too pacified, they will go home and go to sleep. They are not prepared to do anything".
"I know that as MPAC tries to activate the Muslims there will be those that try to silence us and accuse us of antisemitism. We are a bunch of volunteers and we make mistakes. We are not like AIPAC with a budget of hundreds of millions, we run on a budget of £12,000 a year. We have made mistakes and when we find them, we try and rectify them"
"Muslims, do not sit down. We must fight to do something for the eleven year old who will get his eyes blown out in Palestine".
Question and Answer Session:
The first question/statement came from "Abdul", who claimed that Alans book interested him as well as the book by Norman Finklestein. He commented that there is too much emphasis on religion and that Muslims should criticise injustices anywhere and Muslims should awake a political entity. Whilst reading the Koran was good Muslims must participate in other aspects, as there is too much emphasis on religious matters. MPAC should enlist the support of all communities to emphasize the injustices anywhere in the world.
The second question came from Layla who claimed to work in a human rights organisation. She asked Alan Hart about the other silences. AH responded that he discussed the silence of the Jewish Diaspora but the other silences were the silence of "the gentiles" who did not speak out because they still feel guilt about the Holcaust. The other silence was the silence of the Muslims and that they did not speak out partly as a generational thing as the older generation did not want to rock the boat and also because Muslims are scared about accusations of antisemitism. Alan Hart stated that he wanted these silences to be ended as the only way to make democracy work.
The next question came from someone who claimed to be an independent who asked that if the Arab regimes are corrupt and incompetent what can Muslims do? Stephen Marks seemed to completely ignore this question but made some comment about the Bund in Poland criticising rabbis. Stephen Marks then went on his own rant about Christian Zionists being the biggest Jew-haters in the world. He stated that the most powerful Jew haters are not a bunch of Nazis who put Swastikas on Synagogues or desecrate graves but the Christian Zionists. Lord Balfour, who kept the Jews out of England and some of his own family perished as a result, was an example of this. Stephen Marks then said that Zionists were getting clever and that they were now saying "Not all anti-Zionists are antisemitic but all antisemites are anti-Zionists". Stephen Marks said that this view was wrong and it is the Christian Zionists who are the biggest antisemites and that it was odd that there was an alliance between Jews and the "Christian antisemitic Zionists".
Alan Hart also did not answer the question but answered just the end part of the question and seemed to assume a different beginning to the end of "What can Muslims do?" He stated that British society was quite racist but in a more sophisticated way than America. He stated that if Tony Blair is calling you (the Muslims) a bunch of religious nuts then British Muslims should get involved in politics.
Another question then came from the floor, this time from someone referring to himself as a political commentator who goes by the name "The Sharpener". He wanted to know how much antisemitism was on the rise and from where that antisemitism was coming. He claimed that there was no violent antisemitic activity amongst Muslims in this country and that the antisemitism that there was, originated from the far right. Alan Hart responded that the House of Commons Committee is considering this at the moment and they put the rise in antisemitic incidents at 40% last year. He went on to add that the idea that Muslims are antisemitic is not true. What drives Muslim fury is America's support for Israel. He claimed that the monster of antisemitism is the product of European societies.
Asghar Bukhari interjected that the only time he has seen antisemitism discussed by Muslims is when the matter of Palestine is discussed and that he has never met a Muslim that has stated "I don't like Jews". Stephen Marks then piped up about MEMRI, which he claimed to be financed by Israeli Intelligence. He stated that MEMRI's sifts through all the Arab media to find the odd crackpot who has said something that can be used against them. He wanted to know where the equally well-funded anti-Zionist equivalent of MEMRI was, that could deal with the filth that came out of Israel. Alan Hart came back and added that Zionism is brilliant because it is well funded, but he said that there are 1.4 billion Muslims in the world, including a lot who are wealthy. With Arab and Muslims as enemies the Zionists do not need friends.
Until now, the meeting had been quite orderly with the exception of one heckler who had heckled on a few occasions. On each occasion, he was asked politely to keep quiet or he would be asked to leave. He was reminded that there would be time for questions. He was now given the chance to speak. He introduced himself as a regular Jewish Jew who was pro Zionist, and started to talk about the population of Jews in Israel by Mid 2006 and by 2020 in relation to the rest of the world, but was told by Alan Hart to get to the question. (Personally I felt this was unfair as a number of others from the floor who spoke made quite lengthy statements and no one else was told to get to their question.) He did then ask his question which was if you can't persuade us (the Jews) to stop supporting Israel, what are you going to do about it?
Stephen Marks did not answer that question but started going on about the fact that his problem with Israel was that it was racist and that 92% of the land in Israel was reserved for Jews. He made an analogy in relation to Israeli laws that if the mayor of London said that there were too many blacks in Brixton, it would be illegal. He said all the racist laws in Israel should be scrapped. The questioner was clearly very agitated through this and made a number of interruptions asking again in relation to his original question "What are you going to do about it?" A suggestion was made that he be removed from the room and one of the stewards clearly touched him to try and make him leave. This led to the questioner screaming at the steward "Don't touch me". The steward then raised his fist to the questioner as if to hit him. This act was clearly seen by all in the room. The moderator then screamed "No Violence" and rushed over to the situation and admonished the steward. The questioner was then escorted from the room.
In relation to the above fracas: There was a later statement from the floor where someone claiming to be a trainee lawyer talked about Islam being a way of life, and that any truly practicing Muslim must be politically active. He then went on to say that the Zionist did not denigrate our (Muslim) religion and that any violence should not have happened. Later on the moderator also gave an apology for the behaviour of the steward.
In my opinion the things that MPAC did wrong here was firstly not really giving the self declared Jew and Zionist an opportunity to make a proper statement of a reasonable length in line with the length of other contributors from the floor and also having a particularly violent steward. Given that the meeting was headlined "The Great Debate" it did not seem to me that it was a debate at all as everyone up and until then were on the same side. I do not believe that MPAC really wanted any debate as such.
A question then came from the floor from a student at UCL that objected to "Zionists" being portrayed as baboons on the web site of MPAC and wanted to know all about the Spiderman imagery used on their site.
Asghar Bukhari from MPAC responded as follows:
"MPAC is a volunteer organisation. We are highly anti-Zionist and are not afraid to say it. It is a good thing. We do not have offices and a number of people can put things on the web site. A few years ago it could have been an 18 year old girl updating the site."
"People send us articles every day and we do not have time to read it all. If it looks OK, we may not read it and just put it up. As MPAC has grown and we have more manpower, as soon as something is flagged to us we take it down straight away."
"18 months ago, an article went up that may not have been appropriate, but we wouldn't know as at one point we were receiving about eight articles a day."
"We make mistakes. What I find crazy though is the idea that we must have known it or did it on purpose. Now for the first time Spiderman is considered anti Semitic. The phrase "pound of flesh" was used on the web site. I had no idea that it was Anti-Semitic, I don't know Shakespeare. We screw up. We are humans. We take it off. If you think it is that bad, give us some money and we can go over everything with a fine tooth comb."
A questioner from the floor wanted to know if there was anything in Judaic religious law that said something about "Zionism" being wrong. Stephen preceded a long response by admitting he was not an expert on Jewish religious law. He went on to add that for a long time it was not part of Jewish belief to establish a state. He gave an example of 1492 when Jews were expelled from Spain and could have all gone to Palestine, but only a few hundred families went. He accepted that the majority of Jews have accepted the "Zionist" view of Judaism but there were a few organisations such as Neturei Karta who view Israel as an abomination. He also stated that the majority of orthodox Jews are non-Zionist and that the Liberal and Reform movements saw Judaism as an ethical code. He went on to quote a Jewish philosopher who has claimed that modern Zionism is a form of idolatry as people are worshipping Israel instead of worshipping God. He also quoted Mark Ellis who said something like modern Jews should take the Sefer Torahs out of their arks and replace it with F16s and guns as that is what they worship. Alan Hart then stated that the survival of the Jewish people does not depend on land but relies on living n accordance with the religion. He commented that Zionism is an enemy of the Jews and that prior to the Holocaust most Jews who were thoughtful were opposed to Zionism.
The next questioner from the floor wanted to hear from a Jew explaining why they are not "anti-gentile". The questioner understood terms like "Goy" to be derogatory. It was OK for Jews to charge interest and to have rape relationships with non-Jews. Stephen Marks responded by saying that verses in all religious texts can be taken out of context.
Someone called Deborah from Jews for Justice for Palestinians asked Alan Hart if it was too late for a two state solution. Alan Hart responded that the idea of a two state solution was absurd and that it was a one state solution or no solution at all.
I then raised a question myself by stating that it was not just 18 months ago that MPAC were publishing antisemitic stuff on their web site, but only this week, they had put up two articles. The first one claiming, in relation to David Camerons election, that Likud has won, claiming that Cameron has Israeli masters. Furthemore I wanted to know why were they claiming that Mossad were operating in British Universities. Stephen Marks claimed that it was not antisemitic just silly. Ashgar Bukhari also denied that it was antisemitic. I then queried why had they then taken the posts down. Bukhari then turned away from looking at me to address others in the audience and said that Muslim religious leaders are too passive and that they do not teach political activism. He claimed that they (the Zionists?) will publish a list of all the mistakes made by MPAC. He said that "the Zionists" are awake. Pointing at me, said that this was an example of it, and it was happening in front of your eyes. (Note before my question, I did not introduce myself nor did I state or even imply that I was a "Zionist"at any point). He went on to state "We (Muslims) are always going to be under attack and that they ("the Zionists") want to smear you so you can't fight for the Palestinians. Don't let MPAC fight alone. Activate yourself".
Stephen Marks ended his contribution by stating that there are Jews who fight for the Palestinans. Alan Hart concluded by saying that the reason why "the Zionists" want to suppress debate is that they know they have done wrong.
The moderator from MPAC in her final announcements advertised the march the next day being organised by Hizb ut Tahrir.
I left the meeting immediately at the end as I did not want to hang around in that atmosphere, but someone who did stay to ask Bukhari some more questions afterwards reported back to me that Bukhari said and I quote "Any one who supports Israel can go and boil their head".
You can also have a look at MPAC's own account of last night's event, and at this rather good one, on Indigo Jo's blog. And this one on Harry's Place.
Here is Stephen Marks' comment on Harry's Place:
Its difficult to reconstruct a meeting at which you were one of the speakers. I am trying to reconstruct what I said from my notes, as I dont recognise most of it from the accounts that have appeared elsehere. Mark Elf cant post anything on his blog till tomorrow and my efforts are hindered by a stomach bug.
The cancellation of the meeting by Westminster, in response to secret behind-the-scenes complaints, was scandalous. On those freedom of speech grounds alone I am glad I spoke.A phone call from persons unknown was enough to get the meeting cancelled - I dont know of a Muslim organisation in the country that could get that result in that way.
I dont know who was responsible but if it was the UJS I wouldnt be surprised - in my experience that is the way they operate. If you dont like anti-Jewish conspiracy theories - and I dont - then dont act like a conspirator.
I still dont know what the charge against the meeting was supposed to be. If they think Harts book was antisemitic let them come out and say why - Hart has said he will see them in court. I made clear my points of agreement and of disagreement with it from the platform. The banners had their chance to do the same - they chose not to.
The same goes for MPAC. If they want to say it should be banned as an organisation from holding meetings on campus let them say so in the open and the question can be discussed. I made clear to Asghar from the platform that I thought their coverage of issues like Cameron and UJS was childish and hysterical, not least because it actually precluded a serious discussion of the issues.
I would like to see a serious discussion of the role of Conservative Friends of Israel and its Labour equivalent, as well as of the Labour Middle East Council and CAABU. I would certainly like to see a serious discussion of the way UJS operates on campus to close down debate. But rants about Likud wins and Mossad agents actually get in the way of that and discredit those who come out with them, as I told Asghar to his face.
In the same way, I would like to see a serious discussion of whatever comes out in the RESPECT local election manifesto. As someone very sceptical of that outfit I would expect it to contain unexceptionable sentiments about local services; criticisms of New Labours record with much of which I could agree; and an alarming degree of ignorance about the nuts and bolts of local government and actual policy implementation; all covered with a lukewarm sauce of demagogic goo.
I would also expect to keep an eagle eye open for concessions to certain communalist concerns of a conservative or reactionary nature - though as local government has little say in such matters as gay rights and abortion there would probably be little room for that.
So I was glad to see that David T had posted some advance leak of the RESPECT local election manifesto and clicked on the link hoping to see something serious.
What I got of course was a childish joke of a kind that give or take the difference in bias, would fit in well to the MPAC website on a bad newsday. Keep it up David T; youre well on the way to winning the title of the thinking mans Asghar Bukhari.
Actually thats unfair on Asghar - at least when he makes a damn fool of himself, he leaves the comments box open.

'There were flames coming out of the top of the building'
BLUE RIVER, Ore. - A fire at Holiday Farm Resort destroyed the restaurant and bar, putting 15 people out of work.
The fire was reported at 2:45 a.m. on Monday, April 2, 2012, by a man who lives across the street from the resort.
David Wood lives across the street at a nearby RV park. Wood said a sound like "trees cracking" woke him up. "I drove over and there were flames coming out of the top of the building," he said.
Wood then ran home to grab his phone and call 911. "By the time they all got here, it was fully engulfed," said Wood.
Wood nabbed photos of flames burning through the roof toward the night sky.
Fire chief Norm Michaels reported seeing the flames flickering in the sky as he reported to the scene. "There was fire probably 20 to 30 feet out of the roof of the building," said Michaels.
No one was injured in the fire.
Brenda Anderson is the manager of the resort. After the owners called her to tell her what was happening, she went there immediately. "The actual building was still here. It was engulfed in flames. The biggest fire I'd ever seen. The whole structure was still there but within 10 minutes it just collapsed."
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
Firefighters had to drive water to the fire in tanker trucks.
Agencies from Springfield and up the McKenzie River responded to help fight the fire.

Vale Andrew Sayers AM The death of inaugural Director of the National Portrait Gallery Andrew Sayers has been felt deeply across the gallery sector. Increased funding for Melbourne artists (Premium locked content) Outstanding grant applications propels City of Melbourne to increase its funding, with $1 million allocated to individual artists and organisations. Cory Zanoni Wednesday 23 October, 2013 Five teens are wrongly accused on raping a woman in 1989 New York City in this documentary about justice falling to fear. One night in 1989 a group of 30 or so young, black and Latino men were in Central Park harassing people. A few of them are picked up by the police. While they were being interrogated, a body was found - a woman had been beaten, raped and left for dead. The interrogations immediately changed direction. The Central Park Five is a film about hysteria and prejudice. The case captured the imagination of a city filled with fear. Directors Ken Burns, Sarah Burns and David McMahon convey the setting quickly and effectively: 1980s New York City is a social divide between the upper and lower classes, crime is rampant and parts of society is falling apart. The film follows five of the boys arrested that night. Police interrogate them for hours on end, depriving them of sleep and food, and bully them until they break. The boys, 14 to 16 years old, confess to attacking the woman after hours of denying it. These confessions, despite the discrepancies between their stories and contradictory physical evidence, ultimately send them to prison. The film dives into the fear and anger of the population, offering takes from the former mayor of New York, Ed Koch; reporters; lawyers; and historians as well as the five wrongly imprisoned. All offer reasons for why what happened happened, ranging from the aforementioned anxieties to racism. While the explanations are convincing they're not quite satisfying: too many questions remain after the film ends. There's a deeper social analysis waiting in this film but the (understandable) focus on the case at hand prevents it being focused on. The directors rely on the story for impact and they're largely justified in doing so. The Five's telling of events, and the context provided by others, overcomes a lot of tepid imagery and overly long shots of prisons in the rain. This is because it's a story of justice going astray. It captures the imagination. That this could happen to almost anyone, that a system that underpins modern society could get something so wrong so willingly, is terrifying and rightly earns scorn and condemnation. But a second theme emerges. The boys went along with a story and confessed to guilt that wasn't there just to escape a horrible situation. In the court case for three of the boys, one lone juror argued they weren't guilty based on the discrepancies between theirs stories and the physical evidence that didn't place them at the scene. The other eleven jurors belittled him for it. He eventually gave up so he could get out of there. The death of conviction and truth is a sad one. If this film leads to just a few people being more willing to listen to answers they don't want to hear then it will be a success. The narrative of The Central Park Five reaches a satisfying conclusion. Questions remain but it's not a slight against the film: in a subject this big there's always going to be loose ends. It's the small moments that make it powerful. One of the boy's lawyers tells the viewer that his client, Antron, turned to him after hearing the 'guilty' verdict was handed down and said 'Thank you for all your work'. Hear that and try to keep your heart in one piece. Rating: 3.5 stars out of 5.
