I love the "wow" factor of high dynamic range images, but even just thinking about the process of creating them usually stresses me out. Well, thanks to Tim Grey's new course Nik HDR Efex Pro 2.0 Workshop, I'm no longer intimidated by the idea of creating HDR images. In fact, I'm kind of excited about trying it!
In this course Tim shows you around the HDR Efex Pro interface and settings, then goes on to demonstrate how to make overall tonal and color adjustments, use control points to apply selective adjustments, and reset adjustments or go back in the history. As always, you'll benefit from Tim's vast experience in the form of tips and suggestions that will prevent you from making frustrating mistakes.
In this free lesson Tim shows you how to use control points to make a targeted adjustment to an image in HDR Efex Pro. You'll see how to add control points to an image and decide where to place them for maximum effect. Take a look — I'm sure you will be as inspired by this course as I was.

A wheelchair-bound gamer who regularly appeared on Twitch.tv has been accused of faking his disability after he stood up and walked while on camera. No, he was not broadcasting live from a faith healers temple – he just sort of did it while his camera was on. Now he is facing the outrage and wrath of the gaming community and the punitive verdict of Twitch.tv, according to Eurogamer.
Angel "zilianOP" Hamilton became popular on Twitch.tv; he implied in his appearances there that he was paralyzed from the waist down and confined to a wheelchair. But the biggest beef with his portraying himself as disabled is that he used his Twitch.tv channel to earn money via donations.
In the clip that outed his fake disability, Hamilton is shown leaving a game in progress by standing up and glancing at the camera. He appears to rise up from his chair without any help and walks away unaided. In the background his girlfriend Breanna/"Panthoria", who also takes part in his streams from time to time, is heard exclaiming "oh my god!," followed by Hamilton tilting his camera away as he returns to his wheelchair.
Both Hamilton and his girlfriend's accounts have been banned due to "terms of service violations," according to Twitch.tv.
"The Twitch broadcaster, Zilianop, did indeed have his channel closed and his partnership contract terminated on the basis of fraud," a Twitch spokesperson told Kotaku. "Moving forward, we'll be offering refunds to those who subscribed to his channel through Twitch. We have zero tolerance for this type of behavior and the character demonstrated in this situation is truly reprehensible."
"His actions are a huge slap in the face to Twitch community members with real disabilities such as Aieron, and groups such as AbleGamers, who have helped spread a message of inclusiveness and positivity to not only the Twitch community, but gaming as a whole."
Viewers are not satisfied with a simple shut down of his Twitch channel; they have taken to YouTube and Reddit with pointed words for Hamilton. The whole ordeal is detailed over at Diablowned, who claim that Hamilton raised $20,000 while operating his channel. According to the story posted over there the money was allegedly spent on various electronic items, a $2000 wheelchair and $5000 to move house and live nearer his girlfriend.
Chat logs posted from the live broadcast that caught Hamilton's miraculous ability to walk again show Hamilton trying to explain what happened. He claims that his dog had knocked its water bowl over on some wiring. He says that he managed to stand, but then fell over.
"I pushed off my chair and ate it," he told viewers.

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
See that big grill at the back of your case? You need a case fan there. That should resolve at least some of the heating issues you're having. Make sure it's an exhaust fan, though.
And no, the configuration of your 500W power supply is standard in relation to the motherboard.
Without knowing how hard the PSU fan is working it's hard to tell. I would be inclined to move those cables away from the memory slots, though, as the memory cards are just as susceptible to heat as everything else.

Research: Android held 53% of smartphone OS market in Q4
New research indicates that Microsoft's (NASDAQ: MSFT) Windows Phone 7 OS held about 2 percent of the U.S. smartphone OS market at the end of 2010, while Android grew to 53 percent.
Research firm NPD Group concluded that WP7 is off to a slow start. Meanwhile, Android grew 9 percentage points, while RIM's (NASDAQ: RIMM) BlackBerry and Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) iOS were tied for second place at 19 percent. RIM's share fell 2 percentage points while Apple's fell 4 percentage points.
Microsoft's legacy Windows Mobile platform came in at 4 percent, which dipped 3 percentage points, and Palm's WebOS held 2 percent of the market.
"With its mid-quarter launch Windows Phone 7 entered the epicenter of competition between iOS and Android at AT&T. Both competitors offer mature feature sets and large app libraries," Ross Rubin, executive director of industry analysis for NPD, said in a statement. "Microsoft has made the case for Windows Phone 7's differentiation and improved integration. Now, the company must close the feature gap, offer more exclusive capabilities, work with partners to deliver hardware with better differentiation, and leverage its extensive experience in driving developer communities to increase its app offerings."
Microsoft announced last week that it sold 2 million WP7 devices since November, but that number represents the number of phones sold to carriers and stores, not end users. During its fourth-quarter conference call last week, Microsoft executives said they were "encouraged" by WP7 sales.
"We realize we still have a lot of work ahead of us and we remain focused and committed to the long-term success of Windows Phone 7," the company said. Microsoft said it will soon include new features to the OS, as well as support for CDMA-compatible phones that can be sold on Verizon (NYSE: VZ) and Sprint (NYSE: S) networks. The new features include cut-and-paste capability and faster performance.
NPD also studied the top-selling mobile phones. The Apple iPhone 4 was the most popular during the fourth quarter, followed by the Motorola Droid X, the HTC EVO 4G, the iPhone 3GS and the Droid 2.

Rob Kardashian Doesn't Want To Attend Kim Kardashian's Wedding
March 11, 2014 06:00 PM by Lisa Princ
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are busy planning their over-the-top wedding extravaganza, and who would not want to attend such a lavish affair? Rob Kardashian, that's who! Yes, rumor has it that Rob has no interest in attending Kim's upcoming nuptials to Kanye West, probably because everyone in that crazy family has been bullying him about his weight!
Rob Kardashian has been laying low on Twitter these days, ever since some pictures surfaced of him donning quite a few extra pounds, and who can blame him? We've heard all the buzz about Kris Jenner demanding that he lose at least 70 pounds before Kim Kardashian's upcoming wedding, but rumor now has it that Rob doesn't even want to attend Kim's wedding.
According to our friends at Radar Online, Kim and Rob have not been close in years and Rob has no desire to be present at her wedding. "Deep down, she (Kim) thinks he is a total slacker and it's very hurtful to Rob. Out of all the Kardashian kids, Rob is the most down to earth and level headed. But he is just trying to find his way in the world," one insider dished to the site.
Meanwhile, Rob reportedly feels like the "black sheep" of the family since packing on some extra pounds. Other past rumors suggested that Kim, Kourtney and the rest of his sisters have been teasing him about his weight, so it really is no wonder why he wouldn't want to be bothered with her wedding.
What do you think of Rob Kardashian's weight struggles? Should he attend Kim and Kanye's wedding? Join the conversation on Facebook and tell us what you think.

8:30PM: Elmo Takes Sundance: Elmo and his "friend" Kevin Clash came to Sundance to promote "Being Elmo," a film about Clash's career, from his time making puppets at home to his big breaks with public access television, Captain Kangaroo, and Jim Henson. In the film, footage from a show that followed talented children was dug up in order to show Clash's entree into the puppeteering industry, and we see Clash give back to the community that made him a star by mentoring some very talented puppeteers and puppet makers from around the world. The Q&A provided a lively and inspiring commentary, in which Clash showed great appreciation for his fans, his industry, and his craft. Fans of all ages lined up to meet the man and the Muppet they grew up watching on television.
Oh, and the film made my cry. [Bryce J. Renninger]
6:20PM: criticWIRE @ Sundance: Hundreds of grades have been entered, and hundreds are still coming, so be sure to check out indieWIRE's guide to all the Sundance films for a look at what critics and bloggers are thinking about this year's slate.
5:55PM: "Take Shelter" Winning Over Sundance: Definitely one of the frontrunners for the U.S. Dramatic Competition, Jeff Nichols' "Take Shelter" had its second screening in Park City last night and continued to win over audience members. Acquired by Sony Pictures Classics just prior to the fest, Nichols' psychological drama depicts Curtis, a thirtysomething family man who encounters a sudden struggle with mental illness. Starring Michael Shannon (who also starred in Nichols' previous film, "Shotgun Stories") as Curtis and Jessica Chastain (likely one of 2011's big breakouts between this and "The Tree of Life) as his wife, "Shelter" is a haunting and tense portrait of a family unravelling.
"I think there is a general sense of anxiety and stress out in the world," Nichols said upon introducing the film. "And I think it's palpable. I wanted to make a film that touched that. However, I do think the film has a possible answer to that stress and that anxiety. My one hope is that answer somewhat translates for you guys tonight."
Judging from an enthusiastic round of applause afterwards, it's likely that was often the case. Watch the full Q&A from the screening here. [Peter Knegt]

There are a couple of thoughts related to the cooking theme that have visited me lately .... a result of having to nurse an injured foot and so watching too much TV perhaps?
Anyway, has the efficiency of TV chefs ever amazed you and got you thinking about process efficiency and improvement? There is no doubt that the presenters manage to prepare any recipe in a flash and get a lot done in the kitchen in their allotted time .... certainly more than any home-cook could expect to achieve.
On closer inspection however, there are a few, somewhat obvious tricks that the TV shows use and I'm not just referring to the classic line: "Here's one I prepared earlier!" No, I found two main things that contributed to their speed and efficiency in whipping up lavish dishes in a few minutes:1. All the ingredients were readily at hand2. All bowls and utensils were out and ready to whip, chop, blend, dice ..... whatever was needed!
Even where there were no edits and the show was presented (pretty much) in real-time, it is the fact that everything is just there, right at their finger tips, that allows for massive productivity.
So the lesson I take away from this is that some activities/ processes are slow not because of anything intrinsically to do with the task itself. It is slow because of the logistics that needs to support the performance of the task. This will be nothing new to those familiar with managing or coordinating manufacturing processes where the supply chain can naturally become a key, limiting aspect of production .... but those of us who are knowledge workers often forget resource and other dependencies need to be managed before a particular activity can be performed efficiently.Process definition that does not take into account the supporting tasks (take out the ingredients, assemble and plug in the blender, etc.) will not be fully representative of what has to be done ..... and therefore may miss opportunities for improvement. Having spent a large part of the weekend looking for a presentation that I had done a few years ago, I can attest to the time wasted in simply gathering the elements needed to do/make/cook-up something new.

In their book entitled "IT Savvy" (see all new experimental Amazon sidebar below) Peter Weill and Jeanne Ross have done something that does us all a favour. The subtitle "What Top Executives Must Know to Go From Pain to Gain," is brilliant positioning for which we should all be grateful.Most experienced practitioners know that the problems enterprises have in delivering new business capabilities cannot ALL come from IT's lousy project execution. Some part of the
blame for the low rate of project success must come from the ever urgent demands
of the customer, who in the name of "business imperative" wreak havoc
with any attempt to create a coherent enterprise architecture.
It should come as no surprise then that the authors penned an earlier book entitled
"Enterprise Architecture As Strategy: Creating a Foundation for
Business Execution" - which oddly does NOT get referenced in the "IT Savvy"
book. Could it be that they do not want to show where they are taking
the executives? Certainly recrafting enterprise architecture as an
"Operating Model" and aiming to establish a "Digitized Platform" for
the business attempts to soften IT jargon.
Maybe using more business acceptable terminology is a lesson we can
all learn. In the meantime, all power to any attempt at educating
executives on how to make their IT more of a strategic asset.

The annual New York Time's feature covering "The Year in Ideas" an interesting read and highly recommended.
But there was an entry on the success of Massively Collaborative Mathematics that particularly impressed me ... and is relevant to the wider goals of this site. This entry describes how, as an experiment in collaboration, a mathematician challenged the readers of his blog to tackle an intractable mathematical problem .... which they amazingly went on to solve!!!!
Now, that is food for thought. If we can solve something like a mathematical problem maybe this whole "wisdom of the crowd" is not so far fetched. Maybe in future the expression "group-think" will start to lose it negative connotations?
Thinking how one might use this technique to solve enterprise management issues I came up with the following:
This is not far off all the experimentation some businesses are doing with Social Media - both internally and through better engagement with their customer-base. Other examples of successful collaboration of indepenent groups is of course all those open-source initiatives that are around.
So presuming we can find the necessary processing-units through a site like this, and we can achieve the facilitative management approach working, the question that remains is: What activites geared to Enterprise Coherence could be suseptible to this approach?
An interesting challenge to contemplate.

I don't wish to plug a multinational .... especially not for free. But every now and then the "Big Boys" do something that is really quite impressive.So I know this shows me to be a geek at heart, but the new Intel TV ad is very clever and says something about innovation and the respect it deserves. Yet our society tends to find it easier to venerate those "beautiful people" in sports, drama, music, etc. with very little recognition for the less public, intellectual pursuits. I guess the ad says something about these other less glamorous endeavours which, in many ways, are more valuable to society.I first saw the new Intel TV ad while watching the Australian Idol final ..... making the tag line "our rock stars aren't like your rock stars" even more apt. If you have not seen it already, it's worth taking a look at the ad on YouTube.

+ The web is a cheap way of publishing so without the need for a lot of infrastructure the costs can be contained+ This is particularly true when one utilizes the Web 2.0's User Provided Content model making the wage bill shrink down to just the core editorial staff+ User content also means that there is less of an ability to muzzle the press with the "real story" likely to emerge even if the publisher would prefer it not to+ Then there are web-ads which are conveniently dumb on the actual content of the article and only triggered by keywords - whether or not they receive positive treatment.

LOS ANGELES (AFP) - "Sugar'' Shane Mosley announced his retirement on Monday, ending a brilliant 19-year boxing career that earned him five world titles in three weight classes.
Mosley's announcement comes one month after he lost a unanimous decision to junior middleweight champ Saul ''Canelo'' Alvarez of Mexico.
"Good morning everybody. Just want to thank you for showing me so much love,'' Mosley wrote on his social networking Twitter site. "Had a great career and loved every moment of it, win, lose or draw.''
The 40-year-old Mosley's career included a memorable welterweight championship win in 2000 over Oscar De La Hoya.
He now plans to became a trainer to his 21-year-old son.
"I'm going into the promotional world, I'm training my son. It was a helluva career. I'm happy for all the great memories and all the great fighters that I fought. Now it's time give back. I'm ready to train my son full-time now,'' Mosley told ESPN.com.
Mosley, of the US, is one of the few boxers of his era to have never been knocked out.
He finished with a 46-8-1 record, but was 0-3-1 over his last four fights.

The Mississippi House voted Monday not to include the Department of Mental Health in a temporary state hiring freeze.
Rep. Bobby Moody of Louisville said there's a high turnover rate for direct-care workers who feed and clothe mental patients. He convinced the House to let Mental Health hire new workers without getting permission from the Department of Finance and Administration.
The House originally voted Friday to impose a hiring freeze on most state agencies until June 30, the end of the current budget year.
Supporters say the hiring freeze could save the state $8 million to $14 million. The hiring-freeze bill moves to the Senate for more debate.

This blog has been a lower priority as I contend with the turmoil of newborn care. But over these last sleepless, mind-ravaging days (everyone's okay now, not to worry), I've managed to pound out a few articles amidst the pounding caffeinated cloud of my brain.
In indieWIRE today, Popular French Film Finds U.S. Audiences offers a detailed look at how a number of mainstream French films ("La vie en rose," "Paris je t'aime," "The Valet") have cranked out ticket-sales in the multi-millions over the last couple months. And while good for the French industry, this trend may actually be hurting an intelligent art-house French movie such as "Lady Chatterley." We've seen this trend before in English-language independent cinema -- bigger-budget, star-driven, but still "indie" film pushing out more cutting-edge movies of a similar ilk.
At Tomorrow Unlimited, check out MK12's "History of America." These guys are awesome. A Kansas-based design collective, MK12 just completed their painterly 30-minute short, which envisions an epic battle between astronauts and cowboys in the heart of Sin City. The trailer alone offers some eye-opening animated delights. Watch out for it at film festivals this fall.
And I've admittedly caught Herzog fever. Over at IFC, I interviewed New German Cinema maverick Werner Herzog about "Rescue Dawn," where we talked about the American spirit and the film's wacky ending, and at The Daily Reel, you can find five priceless Herzog clips from movies and interviews.

I'm guessing that they are going to use Bill Gates as the face of Microsoft. The ad was funny and lighthearted. I think they are trying to downplay Microsoft's "Evil Empire" rap.
They are a couple.
Expect some divorce papers to be leaked soon.
Ten tenths.
See, Seinfeld had a show which no one understood, and millions loved. Gates has an operating system no one understands, but could be sold to millions if Seinfeld says it's okay to buy things you don't understand. I think.
I looked up at the tv from the computer and saw Seinfeld and thought, "I was discussing Seinfeld in a thread on Bikeforums today" and went back to the computer...
Was Gates in it too?

I already knew that Jerry Seinfeld was an annoying twit.

Seems like the "churros" they were eating throughout the commercial got more interest ... (or maybe I'm hungry and haven't eaten breakfast yet )

Twitter Launches "Promoted Tweets"
Posted on Tuesday, April 13th, 2010 by Grace Kobayashi Print This Post
Categories - Featured, News, Social Media
Twitter is addressing the concern over its long-term viability as a revenue-generating business with the launch of its new ad platform called "Promoted Tweets" this week. Promoted tweets will essentially be tweets in the form of paid advertisements that will be placed at the top of the Twitter search results.
The current version of Twitter search is structured in a purely reverse-chronological order, with the newest tweets appearing at the top of the search results. Tweets by companies, therefore, can quickly be pushed further and further down the search results as time passes. Promoted Tweets will ensure that advertisers looking to get their brand message in front of a target audience won't get buried in the stream of real-time posts. When a user searches for a keyword an advertiser purchased, a single Promoted Tweet will appear at the top of the search results, followed by organic results. Here is an example from Twitter's official blog:
Some of the key points on Promoted Tweets as first reported by Advertising Age and The New York Times:
- Like any other tweets, users will be able to retweet or reply to it, passing along the noteworthy information around the twitter world.
- Advertisers will be bidding on keywords on a CPM basis for now, but Twitter will be introducing other bidding options in the future.
- Promoted Tweets will be clearly labeled as "promoted" and will be highlighted yellow when rolled over with a cursor to distinguish them from regular tweets.
- Only one Promoted Tweet will be displayed on the search results page.
- Twitter will also place Promoted Tweets within the search results of third-party clients such as Twitterberry and Tweetie.
- Eventually, Twitter plans to develop and measure what it calls "resonance", a performance model similar to Google's Quality Score that will be based on how much a tweet is retweeted, favorited, and replied to, or how often a user clicks through to a posted link.
According to market research firm ComScore, Twitter attracted 73.5 million unique individuals in January 2010, with an annual growth rate of 1,105%, making it a potentially attractive new advertising channel for a wide range of brands and individuals. Best Buy, Virgin America, Starbucks and Bravo, all of which have active Twitter profiles, will be some of the first advertisers to test out this new platform.

Summary:Liz Hunter and Kristy Earl are twenty-something British backpackers in Broome, Western Australia, on a road trip with their Australian friend, Ben Mitchell. For them it's a time to cut loose, reconnect, and rediscover life, friendship, perhaps newfound love, and the countryside's astonishing visual beauty. Their journey begins full of energy, jokes, and a little urban myth-swapping about UFO sightings. These playful tales told one evening at a campaign spot by Ben rightly spook Liz and Kristy, however, they worry their experience pales in comparison to the impending terror which shreds their definition of fear shortly after reaching the 'Wolf Creek' National Park, a meteor impact site which ...

Customer Reviews
3 of 3 people found the following review helpfulAugust 22, 2008Reviewer: Camille in WashingtonMy husband experienced anxiety problems. When he asked his doctor to prescribe him something, the doctor suggested 5-HTP instead. We were doubtful in trying a supplement for a very profound and debilitating problem; but within days, he felt different, happy, and handled stress with ease. He was a different man within 2-weeks! I started taking it after about a year, because work worries began waking me in the night and keeping me awake. That all stopped and now, I swear by it also!This review is specific to 5-HTP, 100 mg
2 of 2 people found the following review helpfulJune 29, 2008Reviewer: Richard in MassachusettsI have been using this product for more than two years for fibromyalgia and depression - 100mgs 2 times per day. It really helps. Have tried another brand that did not work. Great price.This review is specific to 5-HTP, 100 mg
1 of 5 people found the following review helpfulMarch 11, 2010Reviewer: Luke in OklahomaWell, this is supposed to be a sleep aid, antidepressant and mild anti-hunger product. So far, it has done none of the above. I take melatonin to sleep every night and tried the 5-HTP last night. I stayed awake for hours, tossing and turning trying to get to sleep. About 1am, I gave up and took the melatonin and fell asleep in 15 minutes. Today, I took the 5-HTP 2 hours before lunch and felt no loss of hunger or appetite. I don't know what to think about it at this point. I cannot speak of how well it does with anti-depressing, I'm not depressed.This review is specific to 5-HTP, 100 mg
September 02, 2015Reviewer: Simon in JapanI've had terrible sleep for several years but I'm pretty sure this has improved my sleep, I take 2 along with 1mg of melatonin (also NOW), and I sleep really well and wake up after about 7.5 hours feeling refreshed. Cutting out all caffeine also seems to be a factor.This review is specific to 5-HTP, 200 mg

You forgot another moronic excuse actually: "He did teshuva"
As a side note, can't we have a sicarii that chases down and punishes people like this? That would make all Jews, frum or not, proud to be Jewish. Instead we have a "sicarii" who chases down rival chassidic sect members for the "crime" of davening by a different rebbe (etc) or for selling mp4 players (etc). Such a joke and embarrassment.
what else can one expect. the men appear to be walking around in frocks.so soory for the wife,who should be more worried about the harm caused to the child.-from the rabbi of chelm.
did the reporter call him rabbi monsey?? lol i guess it can serve as a generalization
This guy is not Jewish
Because only Santa Claus would have such a beard.
In fact I saw him in some store back in December doing the Ho Ho Ho routine and he let CHILDREN sit on his lap
I don't understand the hatred for "frum" people because of this story. I am religious and agree that this guy is a sick animal, as do all the other religious people I know. The fact that there seem to be some who (now say) they were aware of his actions for years does not mean that there is a vast criminal conspiracy on the part of all Chareidim to cover up child molestation. It simply means that there are misguided souls amongst the religious community (just as there are in every other community).
That being said, anyone who did know about this and did nothing about it should have to share a cell with the guy at Rikers.
"Rabbi Noson Leiter said Turner might have been educated in yeshiva but he doesn't lead a congregation and isn't a religious leader in the community. Leiter is a member of Torah Jews for Decency in Monsey."
From the Journal News. Who is Leiter? Good guy? Bad guy?
Take off that beard and actually doesn't look at all Jewish.
More like trailer trash.
I hope I'm correct.
17. What difference does it all make; he has certainly done tshuvah.
APC - You should list these at the beginning of each post where a Chareidi is accused of molestation, or a not-even-considered-criminal-by-chareidim-offense of getting caught lying, cheating or stealing. Maybe it would stop the idiot apologists at the door.
i agree on 2 and 11 and your concise wording in 7 is laudable.
Abracadabra - thanks!! and i love your additions. i have another.
16. we must be 'dan lekaf zechut'...and by this i dont mean the victims or their families chas v'sholem. OF COURSE THEY ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED. but we must give the benefit of trust and support to the poor predator.
thanks for sharing your story. you are right about the risk being too high.
Rebitzman -
i forgot that one. and the reason why no excuses have been offered may be because i listed them all by number and it would be too embarrassing to offer any of those listed, yet thats all they have.
Are these people sick? Yes. They are pedophiles and pedophilia is a paraphilia in which a person has intense and recurrent sexual urges towards and fantasies about prepubescent children and on which feelings they have either acted or which cause distress or interpersonal difficulty. In many instances, it becomes an addiction, as a matter of fact some research suggests that pedophilia may be correlated with several different neurological abnormalities, and often co-exists with other personality disorders and psychological pathologies.
I remember a patient I had who used to flog himself trying to control the urges he had. it is tragic, occurs in all walks of life, social classes etc.
PLEASE DO NOT CONFUSE OUR RABBI AND MENTOR RABBI WEINBERGER OF JAMAICA ESTATES HE IS A TZADDIK(with the other rabbi david weinberger).
The password is "strawman".

I HAVE been part of a community (not Orthodox, by the way) where this did happen, and can tell you that knowing he predator did not make him any less of a predator, and did not change anyone's attitude toward predators. The community DID, however see to it that he had an effective defense - but at the same time made real sure he no longer had an opportunity (pending trial) to ave contact with, or further hurt our or anyone else's children.
As to visiting him in prison (he was convicted) - no, I do not. I DO write him regularly, and he regularly tells me about te Lubaviich rabbi who DOES visual him, but who will not allow him to lay tefillin with him because he can't "prove" he's Jewish.
Funny thing, prison. They generally dom't allow you to bring your parent's and parent's parent's ketubahs with you when you are admitted.
So take your sanctimonious self righteous posts and.......keep them.
Hate jumping in late, but you left the most important one off your otherwise very compelling and comprehensive lst of excuses. You omitted:
This is just another }#%^##* example of that #%^%}* self hating Jew, Shmarya telling #^%}%^% stories while eating Cheetos in the }#^## basement of hs mothers home.
Variation: }%^*%# you, Shmarya.
In this specific case, I can't find the usual volume of the usual and pathetic defense or coverup that we've seen in other instances. One wonders if the Ulta-Orthodox are finally wishing up, OR if this predator (alleged) attacked the "wrong" kid (one belonging to a community leader).
The community that hides and makes excuses for a child molester is just as guilty as the molester. Authorities should be encouraged to charge those that harbor these fiends.
It is my sincerest wish that an animal such as Turner be sent to a prison where he is not placed in isolation like so many of our beloved orthodox inmates. No, he should be placed in "general population". His defence attorney will argue that is cruel and unusual punishment. I argue that "genral popluation" is the only place where true justice will be applied: He will be brutalized, repeatedly raped and ultimately murdered-that is justice.
Big deal, "he was banned from many public areas". If the the "community leaders" knew about him, why wasn't he behind bars?
Reminds me of the "Monsey Chicken Scandal" some years ago.
HaRav HaGaon Moreinu v'Rabeinu HoRav Maran Bresslauer, shlita, knew for weeks in advance that there was a potential problem but never acted on it.
Then, when the trief chickens were uncovered, Bresslauer refused to accept the blame.
And today he is back, full force, in the Hechsher business.
Woe to Klal Yisrael.
You can blame this on the "Da'as Torah" in the Orthodox communities, who discourage reporting these perverts to the authorities.
Kaminetzsky in Philadelphia; Cohen from Ohel and G'Vul Yaabetz in Flatbush; the Agudah empty-heads; the Chabad Rabbis . . . . all are more interested in blaming the victims rather than prosecuting the criminals.
Kenny Gribetz will get him off with community service. Bets, anyone?
You miss the point. A community has hidden these molestors for many decades. denied, helped them flee to Israel,protect them there or here. This has to be fixed.
Also while it is very noble of you to visit your friends in prison, they will be there a long time, your visit does not help them much.
You would better spend your time befriending people in your community who may not have any friends yet are fine honest people.
Most of these friends of yours in jail will not be fully rehabbed anyway.
you would be better to sympathize and help thier innocent victims.

You can't.
In my community a mashgiakh who busted a frum restaurant that was serving treyf was fired.
He never worked another day as a mashgiakh.
The local rabbonim totally screwed him; he refused to cooperate and that was not tolerated.
What infuriated the rabbonim was not that the restaurant served treyf as much as that the local secular media made a story out of it and the mashgiakh was quoted.
That was unforgivable.
There are thousands of other such incidents with kashrus or lack of it.
Simple Jew- you are truly menatlly disturbed, for the past 20 or so years people knew about his behaviour and only people like you defend him by saying all are more guilty because he was not found guilty yet, you are tottaly missing the point he is guilty until proven innocent for all those who know who is for the past 20 years and no child here we have 7 would make up stories about such a horrible incident that you dont understand they have nothing to gain by it
Sorry to ask such a klutz kashe--if these monsters can count on the Haredi rabbis to give them cover, how can any Jew rely on the same rabbis to guarantee that their meat is "kosher"?
Posted by: Simple Jew | October 24, 2011 at 07:40 PM
they do not need to, they already have spoken by allowing him to run free for 20 years and not reporting him
so yes they have been defending him for many years
Posted by: Mendy Hecht | October 24, 2011 at 07:29 PM
Actually, for the first time, I could accept your view . Myself was molested by a family member who years later molested his daughter and numerous others and he went to jail. My first intuition was to offer him a way out, if he goes to get help and stays away from children. He refused, and the rest is history. I agree if the person is really looking for help than lifeline should be part of the punishment, otherwise the recidivism rate is too high, to gamble with other children lives.
You went to Ner Israel?
How old are you? I wonder if we know each other?
I am a Baltimorean myself. I'm 45.
Unfortunately, I share many of the same feelings you do....

Why was I attracted? I was a BT, from a home where Judaism seemed sterile, boring. I was 20, looking for my roots which I thought would be more authentic than what I knew of Judaism.
I was also very, very naive about life and people. I really believed them when they told me about serving hashem, living an ethical life in a loving community.
They hit all my buttons.
When I found out the truth I was in denial. It all seemed too much especially since I really wanted to like some of the people I met.
However, when these very nice people turned out to have put the klal before the needs and rights of the individual, I left. I realized that this was a total cult, a community in major denial.
It didn't help when I was told that as a BT I was a second-class citizen for life.
Halakha is filled with the most ridiculous crap, totally inane superstitious shit that is held up as the paragon of virtue. Shatnez? Hilkhos shabbos? Kashrus? Attitudes toward men, women, kids, gays, goyim, rabbonim (= g'dolim), dress codes, education, etc. etc. We are dealing with institutionalized insanity.
I just asked myself, If I were not Jewish would I agree to any of this stuff?
The answer was an emphatic, No way!!!! This is so sick, so miserable, such pathetic denial of life and love.
From then on it was fairly easy for me.
Am I angry?
I am furious for all the years I lived in denial of who I really was, a sweet, sensitive, loving man made in the image and likeness of my creator. And all because I wanted to be liked and a member of a community that exploited my identification as a Jew.
Probably if I were born a Muslim I would have gone through the same identity crisis if I were a BT Muslim or even a "real" one.
It just so happened that my parents are Jews and so, partly out of loyalty to my kind, I went this way.
When I see these idiots these days I am torn between wanting to beat the shit out of them and between just feeling total disgust.
I consider them and their belief systems to be criminal.
In a fair world they would not exist.
However, this world is not at all fair when it comes to criminals of all stripes.
The adults are lost. They will just do as they are told. Their kids might be saved but probably not in most cases. They will just turn out like the parents and breed more of the same lost souls.
To all of the anti frum people on the site --- please note that not one frum person posted anything to excuse his (alleged) behaviour.
The only thing worse than someone doing that is y'all accusing people of doing that when no one did.
I live up here and I think I've seen the man out and about.
Here's some food for thought:
We can all gather here at FM and rail against these people and how we'd castrate them in an instant if we had the chance.
But what if someone you actually know is accused of being one of "these sick people"?
I don't know this Turner guy, but I do know another alleged molester.
It was easy to say, "Yeah, I'll kill any molester I meet" until someone I knew was accused of being one.
I'm not saying go easy on molesters. Not at all.
They absolutely should be punished.
The only thing is--don't take this out of context--they're people too. They're sick. They need help. (Most if not all molesters were molested themselves as kids.)
So: Prison? Yes. A lifetime of community service? Yes. Banishment from the community? Yes. And "no" to avoidance, apologetics, defenses and excuses.
If you have to ask why a molester should be outed and punished and not shielded and sheltered, I can't explain it to you.
But, on the other hand, as the molester goes through the punishment consequences of his actions, he still needs support, like visits in prison.
If this other guy I know does go to prison, that's what I would do.
But that's just because I'm just an acquaintance.
If I were a victim or close relative of a victim, I don't think I'd be able to do that. I'd probably think, "Good! Let the monster rot in prison and drop dead."
So if you're a parent of a victim and think I'm totally nuts for writing the above, I hear you.
I'm just thinking out loud here.
Sweet Adoline- thanks for clearing it up for me, about 6 months ago i was at the wedding of rabbi dovids daughter.
To Jancsipista-Rabbi Moshe Weinberger is in Woodmere; Rabbi Dovid Weinberger is in Far Rockaway.
Litvish, its hard to expect masses of them to leave but education and publicity of their crimes and atrocities can help shed the truth.
please he is not Jewish
end of story
yes, all segments are sick incl. MO, albeit in other ways as well. I can see why people leave. What needs a biur is why people are attracted in the first place. Is that all of them want the warmth and external initial friendliness and certain entertainment it has to be something else.some of the BT's look sincere and relatively normal.
I don't disagree with what you wrote; I share the same sentiment. The altar weeps for all the innocent victims of this monster.
IMO, the Orthodox community is severely sick, and I am afraid it has been sick for many centuries, if not a millennium ... and the worse part is that they continue to spiral out of control.
Anuran and rest:
I agree that being caught is the worst thing and having it all publicized in the goyishe media makes them feel uncomfortable.
The crime is immaterial to them.
Their is nothing that they cannot justify. They are the very model of denial.
They have forfeited their rights to be considered as part of the human race.
They put community image and shanda far di goyim above the horrors that are perpetrated in their little world.
If tomorrow every single frumik in the world were to be eliminated I wouldn't weep a single tear.
They are hateful people who deserve everything that they get.
I also wouldn't weep for all the other hateful people ( fundamentalist Muslims, Christians and their ilk) who accompany them to their inevitable punishment, that being their choice to live a life of sin against their fellow man/woman, hashem and the lands that stupidly award them citizenship while they steal and live off of the rest of us.
Today, a frumik whom I have taken care of for free for years, made an appointment to see me. I told my secretary to tell him that he will now have to pay like all the other patients. His wife is employed and supports them,his daughter whom they also support nicely goes to school in another area;they also have a house, a car and live quite well. He refuses to work. He immediately cancelled the appointment claiming that they have no money to pay me.
david- first of all rabbi david weinberger is in lawrance long island in the five towns and where do you take youre info from that he is involved in a sex scandel?
David and Tommy, are these people actually capable of shame? Or is it just unhappiness at being caught?
Stave/Yona/JPAC (same person)
Does JPAC endorse molestation? Does JPAC endorse mesira in a case of molestation?
David asks if the frumiks actually feel shame over this.
No, they don't.
Yes, I think they do. They feel shame. He was arrested after all. Yet, they don't feel guilt. That's a problem throughout the Jewish community: public embarrassment and ridicule is often perceived as a bigger problem than the problem itself. Sincere morality too often takes a back seat to avoiding chilul Hashem (i.e. bad PR).
And more:
13. This is terrible PR for the frum community and Klal Yisrael. This should not have been reported to the police, but rather dealt with by a reputable Beis Din which can handle the problem with Daas Toirah.
14. He was framed by people out to extort money from him or his family (rachmana l'tzlan).
15. It doesn't matter what he did, if he becomes a prisoner in a Goiyish country we have to collect Pidyon Shvuyim funds to free him!
Very seriously...
You are dealing with 'two' different people...
Dr Jeckle and Mr Hyde
I have seen it myself
"He is innocent unless proven guilty", unless he is a convert or a descendent of a convert. Haredi beit din certainly applies "guilty until proven innocent" principal to the converts and their descendants (over 10,000 people unconverted by a single stroke of a pen based on a single suspicious case in Israel by a haredi fanatical rabbi Sherman just recently and not a single haredi rabbi objected).
Conclusion - haredizm is a sickness and not a single Haredi rabbi can be trusted.
APC - Excellent! (As always.)
Might I add:
12. He is innocent unless proven guilty.
(They used this line with Yehuda Kolko. Then they said he was never "proven" guilty, because he took a plea bargain, so because he was never "proven" to be guilty - he's innocent! What a crock!
Funny how Chareidim use the principals of the USA legal system to defend themselves when it's convenient, yet at the same time reject that system, saying that only their inept Beis Din is valid.
David asks if the frumiks actually feel shame over this.
No, they don't.
As far as they are concerned the only problem is that he got caught by the police and will be subject to the law of the land as opposed to the laws they create in the name of hashem and torah.
As my rebbe, a magid shiur at Ner Yisroel Baltimore, once told me, " You can do anything you want, believe anything you want; it really doesn't matter. As long as you play the part you will be a member in good standing in the community."
At least he was honest.
Hope everyone had a merry simkhas torah.
Now back to the disease of "Torah-true Judaism".

The real question should be when he raped a child why didn't he think of his family, and how much they would suffer when his behavior becomes public. No, not for one second, did he reframe from molesting children, why would I care what his family is going through. Should the community look the other way because a family member would suffer? Every criminal has family who are unfortunately ensnared when they are exposed.
Also 7
Very tragic story. I wonder how his family is taking this . . .
In the news video it says that his wife and children are suffering from the shame of the accusations.
Do the frumma actually feel shame about this sort of thing? It's not like we're talking about drinking chalav stam or wearing blue shirts, which would, for them, be truly shameful.
i'll help the haredi apologists save time. please just refer to the number in front of the excuse you want to offer.
1. he's not charedi. shmarya photoshopped his picture.
2. he's not a REAL charedi. he just dressed and acted like one.
3. he couldnt have done it, he once gave tseddaka.
4. he was forced to rape children by secular jews.
5. the victims werent children but rather little actors who entrapped him.
6. he misunderstood certain parts of the torah and thought he was doing a mitzvah.
7. he's a true tzaddik. no futher defense needed.
8. the accusers and their families are lying anti-semites.
9. its loshon hara so that makes it not true.
10. who cares what he did? somebody was oiver the prohibition of mesira and thats what we should be concerned with.
11. if there werent 2 adult male witneses to the act it never happened or doesnt matter.
This guy deserved the harshest punishment!!!
He has a sickness that's why he can learn Torah and do this.it's like being gay and observing all other mitzvahs.
if what i read about him is half true he should be skinned alive, it just boggles the mind how someone who supposedly learned torah can stoop to such pure evil , he definitly deserved the death penalty if what they claim he did is true

Orie Melvin should resign
Several state House members of both parties plan to begin the process of impeaching suspended state Supreme Court Justice Joan Orie Melvin, who was convicted last week of six counts of corruption.
Ms. Orie Melvin instead should perform an act of public service and resign.
She and her former chief of staff - her sister Janine Orie - were found guilty of theft of services, conspiracy and misapplication of government funds for using publicly paid staffers as campaign workers. Janine Orie also was convicted of tampering with evidence and solicitation of witnesses, while a hung jury was declared on a charge of official repression against the justice. A third sister, former state Sen. Jane Orie, is serving a 2½-to-10-year state prison sentence for a similar conviction.
Ms. Orie Melvin, like any other citizen, is free to appeal the criminal conviction. But unlike any other citizen, her responsibility to the public has been compromised beyond repair.
The standard for any public official is not mere compliance with the law. That's the standard for every citizen. Public officials must be not merely compliant but exemplary. Judicial standards, known as the canons of judicial conduct, proscribe conduct such as Ms. Orie Melvin's regardless of whether it stoops to the level of actual criminality.
Each canon includes abundant detail, but they generally are self-explanatory: Judges should uphold the integrity and independence of the judiciary; judges should avoid impropriety and the appearance of impropriety in all their activities; judges should perform the duties of their office impartially and diligently; judges may engage in activities to improve the law, the legal system, and the administration of justice; judges should regulate their extra-judicial activities to minimize the risk of conflict with their judicial duties; compensation received for quasi-judicial and extra-judicial activities permitted by this code and, most especially in this case, judges should refrain from political activity inappropriate to their judicial office.
Even if Ms. Orie Melvin somehow were to prevail in a criminal appeal, the testimony in her case was even more damning when applied against the canons of judicial conduct.
She should resign so that a justice can be appointed and the court can get back to work.

Canadian geologists add their voice for evolution
Royal Society furor over creationism
The director of education for the Royal Society of London, Michael Reiss, resigned from his position on September 16, 2008, in the wake of a controversy occasioned by his recent remarks on creationism.
Alliance for Science evolution essay contest
The Alliance for Science -- a non-profit organization which seeks "to heighten public understanding and support for science and to preserve the distinctions between science and religion in the public sphere" -- is holding its third annual essay contest. The theme is "In Darwin's Footsteps," and students are encouraged "to identify and write about a single scientist, a group of scientists, or a scientific organization that best exemplifies the character and quality of work that sustained Darwin throughout his career."
Update from Canada
Writing in the September 2008 issue of the United Church Observer, Drew Halfnight discusses the public understanding of evolution in Canada.
Creationist initiatives denounced in ASBMB Today
Two articles in the August 2008 issue of ASBMB Today react to recent creationist initiatives. ASBMB's president, Gregory A. Petsko of Brandeis University, pulls no punches in his column, beginning, "They're at it again. Armed with another new idea from the Discovery Institute, that bastion of ignorance, right-wing political ideology, and pseudo-scientific claptrap, the creationist movement has mounted yet another assault on science.
Paleontologists decry Louisiana's antievolution law

Project Steve: n = 900
With the addition of Steven K. Nordeen on September 5, 2008, NCSE's Project Steve attained its 900th signatory. A tongue-in-cheek parody of a long-standing creationist tradition of amassing lists of "scientists who doubt evolution" or "scientists who dissent from Darwinism," Project Steve mocks such lists by restricting its signatories to scientists whose first name is Steve (or a cognate, such as Stephanie, Esteban, Istvan, Stefano, or even Tapani -- the Finnish equivalent).
Update from Texas
A recent article in the Fort Worth Weekly (August 3, 2008) warns of the impending battle over the place of evolution in Texas's state science standards. "The basic fight is expected to be over what kids are taught about evolution -- which takes up only about three days of teaching in a 180-day school year," Laurie Barker James writes.
"Eroding Evolution" in Louisiana
"Eroding Evolution," a new article in the July/August 2008 issue of Church and State, addresses the recently enacted "Science Education Act" in Louisiana, which threatens to open the door for creationism and scientifically unwarranted critiques of evolution to be taught in public school science classes.
"A Teacher on the Front Line"
"A Teacher on the Front Line as Faith and Science Clash" -- a story on the front page of The New York Times (August 24, 2008) -- examines the creationism/evolution controversy as it plays out in the classroom of David Campbell, a biology teacher in Orange Park, Florida.

The CCC has achieved a Level 3 Recognition as a Patient Centered Medical Home by the National Committee of Quality Assurance
The Center for Comprehensive Care has achieved a Level 3 recognition – the highest level possible – by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) as a Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH). NCQA awards clinical practices that show systematic use of patient-centered, coordinated care management processes, as well as information technology, to provide quality patient care. With this recognition, the CCC is positioned to take advantage of financial incentives offered by health plans as well as to participate in federal and state-sponsored pilot programs. Most importantly, certified Primary Care Medical Homes are viewed by patients and other community based organizations as excellent service providers who have met the nationally recognized standards for delivering high-quality care.
This achievement did not come easily. First, the CCC had to be all they are: a high quality, robust, integrated and patient-centered care provider. Second, they had to have a team of dedicated staff to put together a very demanding application. Shanti Jimenez led a team through the application process over the past year that included: Ross Adelglass, Tannasia Gonzalez, Susan Heffron, Jenny Mayer, Christine Nollen, Lia Tsveniashvili, Tony Urbina and Robert Warford. Congratulations on this great accomplishment!
