Jerry: Hi everyone. Thanks for joining us. Today, I'd like you to meet Candida. She's an ESL student at U.C.L.A. Welcome Candida (audience applauds, wolf- whistles and shouts) Candy.......Candy...........Candy.......... Jerry: Hi Candida. Now you're a college student and a cheerleader. You've just won a Barbie of the Year competition, you're a prom queen, you're going to star as a Bond girl in the next James Bond movie with Pierce Brosnan, you've been voted the girl most likely to become President of the U.S.A., and you're currently going steady with your boyfriend, Ken. What could be your problem? What's going on? Candida: (speaking in a high-pitched, breathless tone with a distinct nasal twang, and chewing gum) Well, Jair it's like this. Me and my boyfriend Ken are going steady but I'm going to have to break it off! Jerry: How long have you been going steady with Ken? Candida: Oooh, it's been about 4 days now. Jerry: I see, then what's the problem? Candida: Well, I'm in love with another man. (audience gasps) Ooooohhhhhhhh!!!!!! Jerry: So, who is this other guy? Candida: My English Professor at college! (audience shocked) Noooooooo!! Jerry: So, what do you want to do about it? Candida: Well, I've asked my College Professor here today and I'm gonna tell him that I love him. Jerry: Well, how's he going to react to all of this? Candida: Well, I think he already knows. Jerry: How come? Why do you think this? Candida: I can tell. The way he looks at me in class when he asks me questions about Present Poifect Continuous! Jerry: But what will he do when he actually hears this from you? Candida: I'm hoping that he'll go down on his knees and ask me to marry him, right here on National TV! (audience cheers and whistles) Yah, go;.. Candy; go Candy .......Candy!!!!! Jerry: Well, let's bring him out and ask him what he thinks about all of this. Welcome Professor. (Candida rushes over to the professor and gives him a passionate tongue kiss) ESL Professor (a rather bookish, Woody Allen lookalike): Thanks Jerry. It's a pleasure to be on your show. Jerry:Do you know why you're here today? ESL Professor: Not really, but I might have an idea. Jerry:Well, we will let Candida tell you. Candida (turning to the professor and holding his hand): Now, Professor. You know that I'm taking one of your English classes. I sit in the front seat every lesson and listen to your every word..and I just go crazy when you talk about things like .......passive voice. Oh, professor! I love you! ESL Professor: Well, Candida. You know that I like you but I'm afraid that I have a secret confession to make. There are ...... Others !!!! Lots of them. Every night, I go along to Dave's ESL Café because I have this need to meet people! Different ones, I have them every night! (audience) Boo .....Boo..........hiss!! Candida: Why you!! (she rushes over to slap him. Security guards intervene to restore order). She sits and sobs (audience sympathises aawwwagh ................) Jerry: So, Candida. What are you going to do now? Candida: Well, Jair.I'm just going to have to move on. I'll finish my CELTA and then I'm going to put it all behind me........I'm going to travel and backpack around the world! Jerry (looking deep and meaningfully into the camera): Well, there's a lesson that we all can learn from this .....a moral to this story. There's a special relationship that exists between teacher and student . It's sacred based on trust and mutual respect, and should always be professional. If one party steps beyond the bounds of this relationship then someone is going to get hurt. Take care and look after yourselves. Audience : Jerry.............Jerry................Jerry................ Outside studio, camera focuses in on 3 guys from the audience (lookalike 3 Stooges). Larry and Curly: We love you, Jerry and we've come from Little Rock just to see you ....... Moe: Come on , get outa here, you morons!

He even has some new projects going in Africa and the U.K. Jerry Springer can be seen on TV screens world-wide". Now, I'm not a fan of his, but really the theme of the sketch was about past postings in this forum and it wasn't based on his humour but rather my own attempt at some comic relief! I'm not from North America but I have seen his show and I can remember when it created news worldwide when a homicide was the unfortunate result of one episode.

I have the feeling that Americans live in this strange world where everything is mediated through television. With the whole O.J.Simpson business it was clear that America was fascinated by this and the rest of the world had no interest at all. With the media it is a bit like baseball or American football. What concerns the denizens of God's Own Country is of little interest to the rest of the world.

I've been living out of country for about 8 years now, and I really don't live that far away from my homeland (USA) either. Although I feel a bit embarrassed to admit it , I didn't realize how much time I spent watching TV when I lived in the States. After several years of not owning a TV here in Mexico, I finally bought a used one. I turn it on maybe once every two weeks or so. I find that I don't keep up on local, national, and international news as much here as I did back in the States. I return to the U.S. for a two-week visit once a year. It amazes me how much of people's conversations there revolve around what's on TV, not just news reported on TV, but the variety of popular programs as well (sitcoms, reality shows, talk shows, etc.) In that case, I've definitely lost touch. I keep in touch via e-mail and sometimes phone with family and a few friends "back home," but I no longer keep up with the details of their lives as much as I did when I lived there. Best wishes!

It looked like...Michigan, for god's sake!
So before we turn our attention full-time this week to that school in Ohio, we take one final look back to savor the "W" over "N."
MZone Autopsy Report: NEBRASKA
* Are you getting tired of praising this defense yet? Me neither. Nebraska didn't convert a third down until the third quarter. Sit back for a moment and try to wrap your head around that. Last year, U-M had the 110th ranked defense in the country (out of 120, in case you're wondering). Last year, this defense gave up 35.2 points per game, 107th in the country. This year, Michigan has the #14 ranked defense in all the land and is giving up 15.6 per game, 6th best in the country!
Want a little more perspective? In its 13 games last year, Michigan gave up 458 points. Through 11 this season, they've surrendered 172. In other words, to equal the punchline that was 2010, Michigan would have to give up 144 points -- in EACH of its remaining two games (OSU and the bowl).
Folks, that's not improvement, it's mind boggling. Because this wasn't some talent-laden group coming back. It was, well, the 110th ranked unit in the nation.
No more.
* Contrary to what you may have heard (a lot) by some, this genie-wish-like turnaround on defense has not come at the expense of the offense. This year, Michigan's scoring offense is ranked 25th, averaging 33.6 points per game. And last year? Michigan had -- pause for effect...keep pausing...wait for it...okay, keep reading -- the 25th ranked offense, averaging -- one more pause -- 32.8 points per game. Yep. The current coaching staff that some continually keep claiming are shackling or hurting or not properly utilizing Denard have actually, factually done no such thing.
Oh, and best of all -- Denard is still able to play at full strength and speed here at the end of the season because he's not getting the living snot kicked out of him each and every game.
Want more here, too? Okay. Last year through 13 games, Michigan scored 426 points (which includes the OT Xbox game vs. Illinois). This year through 11 they're at 370, meaning they have to average a very possible 28 points in each of their final two games to equal the offensive genius we gave up when Brady Hoke and Al Borges came to town.
Now, cut and paste the above and send it to all your friends who, for some reason, are still bitching about the current coaching staff and what they're "doing to Denard."
* In 2010, Michigan was dead last in kicking, making just 4 of 14 FGs. This year, they're 9 for 13 with two games to go.
* The most disappointing thing about the previous three seasons
* If Michigan wins on Saturday, Brady Hoke will have won just as many B1G games in his first season -- 6 -- as Rich Rod won in his three years at the helm.
* I think the fans -- myself included -- are having a harder time believing in the quick turnaround than the team as evidenced by my reaction to watching the Nebraska game. Even when U-M was up 21, I -- and the Wolverine fans I watch with -- were still nervous. Waiting for the other shoe to fall. It's like fan PTSD after The Dark Years. Although...
* That roughing the kicker call against NU was weak. Very weak. We were up 14 at the time, had been stopped on our previous two drives, and big mo' was wearing Big Red. But after the penalty, Michigan drove down and scored to go up 21. Game over. Still, it was a horrible call. I guess somebody felt they owed us for Iowa. Speaking of which...
* Denard's roll out TD down near Nebraska's 2 yard line is a play I'd like to have seen on that 4th down against Iowa. &%$#ing IOWA!
* Loved the fake FG call but would not have been in favor if we'd lined up to simply "go for it" on 4th down, if that makes sense. When we lined up to kick, I thought it was a smart call. When we faked, I thought it was genius.

2005 Volleyball
Hanover 3, Bluffton 1
By Bill Hanefeld Jr., interim sports information director
October 1, 2005
BLUFFTON, Ohio - The Bluffton University volleyball team (10-10, 0-2) fell to a hungry
Hanover Panther squad (11-9,
1-0) by a match score of 3-1 on October 1, 2005 at Founders Hall. Game scores were 30-25, 30-21, 25-30 and 30-16.
The Beavers struggled to find their rhythm against the Panthers as they dropped the first two games. Bluffton scored the first five points of the third game and made that spread hold up as they were victorious by a score of 30-25. Bluffton failed to maintain the momentum they built during the third game and Hanover rolled off a 30-16 victory to take the match 3-1. Sophomore Kalla Aeschliman (Archbold/Archbold) led the Beavers with 12 kills for the match. Bluffton sophomore Rachel Alvarez (Convoy/Crestview) recorded 22 digs and knocked down seven kills. Senior Keri Kuhlman (Shelby/Shelby) finished with 10 kills and three blocks. Junior Katie Moore (Bucyrus/Wynford) paced Bluffton with four service aces and also picked up 19 digs. Junior Brittany Shultz (Hudson, Ind./Prairie Heights) set up the Bluffton hitters with 33 assists.
The Beavers will be back in action this Thursday, October 6 when they travel to play at Oberlin. The match is slated to begin at 7 p.m.

The lights are on
Yesterday, we ran a discussion asking Game Informer readers which they preferred: physical retail copies of games, or digital downloaded copies, and the results are in.
This is in no way a real, scientific poll that should in any way represent overall perception of video game consumers. With that disclaimer aside, Game Informer readers who comment on our stories (our favorite kind of reader) definitely prefer physical games to downloaded games. Looking through the comments and reading everyone's input, approximately 75% of readers prefer their games to be physical things they can hold in their hands, 11% prefer to download their games, and 14% showed no preference either way.
Proof that I counted the comments and took notes
The arguments in favor of digital downloads included the normal ones like accessibility and convenience, discounted prices, and the lack of clutter that comes with buying a game that doesn't have a box. Reader Barnsley Pal wrote, "I'm done with physical discs. It just feels like an outdated way to transfer information." Another reader also pointed out that by not having a cartridge or a disc, there is nothing to lose or misplace.
Reader jeisenlee brought up an argument that is usually presented from the fans of physical games who like the ability to sell games saying, "At the moment I can't trade [digital downloads] in, so there's less pressure to trade in a game I like for something new that just came out." Consoles and PCs also run quieter when they don't have to spin a disc to run a game.
The voices of the fans of purchasing physical games – which were much louder – also made compelling arguments. Hard drives fill up too quickly, the Internet is not fast enough to allow the download of large games, and it's good to have a disc around in case you need to reinstall. Reader Arkayde said, "In my opinion digital is no more than an indefinite rental." There's also something to be said about the simple joy of holding a physical game in your hands.
For the most part, nobody was entirely dismissive of one way to purchase games over another. If the price is right, digital is fine, but the majority of readers said that given they preference, they would rather go retail. It also depends on console. If it's PC, most readers go digital download, because often that's the only choice. The same goes for handheld consoles. Most readers like their handheld games to be digital, but if it's home console, most like having a box with a disc.
And finally, reader ThisWorldBeginsWithUs offered perhaps the most compelling argument saying, "I prefer my games on buttered toast," which I counted as a vote for retail. You can't place a digital download on a piece of toast.
If you want to dive into the discussion and offer your own opinion, head back to the original reader discussion to leave a comment.

LONDON, Jan. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries' (OPEC) crude oil output averaged 30.83 million barrels per day (b/d) in December, up 230,000 b/d from estimated November output of 30.6 million b/d, a just-released Platts survey of OPEC and oil industry officials and analysts showed.
The biggest single increase came from Libya, whose efforts to restore production toward pre-uprising levels saw output rise to 800,000 b/d from 550,000 b/d in November, the survey showed.
"The increase in production last month was all about Libya, with only minor changes from other OPEC members," said John Kingston, Platts global director of news. "Libyan output is still only halfway back to where it was before last year's uprising, but total OPEC supply is already 830,000 b/d greater than the group's new output production ceiling, which only came into force at the start of this month."
Other increases came from Saudi Arabia, whose output climbed by 100,000 b/d to 9.8 million b/d in November, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), where production rose to 2.55 million b/d from 2.51 million b/d in November.
The Platts survey estimated output drops totalling 160,000 b/d from Angola, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria andVenezuela.
The December estimate is already 830,000 b/d greater than OPEC's new 30-million- b/d output ceiling agreed last month in Vienna and which came into force on January 1.
Ministers meeting on December 14 formally overturned the previous target of 24.845 million b/d, which was agreed in late 2008 when oil prices were plunging amid a deepening recession. The old production target did not cover Iraq, whose quotas had become largely notional.
The new ceiling covers all 12 members but does not set individual quotas. In its official communique, OPEC said member countries had agreed to reduce output voluntarily if it became necessary.

At a recent press event in New York, studio president and R2 creative director Ted Price declared that the title's single-player campaign, 8-person online co-op play and 60-person online competitive multiplayer combine to form the "biggest game and the best game that we've ever made."
"It's all about offering more than any shooter in 2008, but at the same time, being the best," Price added. "We really believe that Resistance 2 delivers on both counts."
Going by the game's lackluster showing at E3, I wasn't too sure I bought into that. But now that I've had a chance to play each of the title's three main modes, I'm convinced that, if nothing else, Resistance 2 is shaping up to be a worthy sequel.
While the E3 demonstration of the battle against a skyscraper-tall boss certainly showed off the scope of the sequel's boss battles, it lacked the creative weapons and tension that made the original one of my favorite PlayStation 3 games. It felt less like a boss battle and more like some nifty scripted moments interspersed between mundane stair-climbing sections.
Fortunately, both creative weapons and frantic pacing were on full display in the two campaign levels I played.
Meanwhile, the third level reaffirms that Resistance 2 is not a game that lets you get comfortable. It starts off with an ambush in the middle of the road, trapping players behind a now-useless transport as scorching red bullets rain from the nearby hillside.
As players navigate though the thick haze of the battlefield and rush from cover to cover, that blanket of fire starts to become less of a hindrance and more of an aid, helping you to find and eliminate those foes in the thick grey smoke.
Suddenly, the serene atmosphere of the tall redwoods and the wide open area isn't so welcoming. Attacks can come from anywhere, at any time, and your only warning is a brief war cry from the oncoming foe.
With a one-hit kill a few seconds away at any time, the tension is damn near palpable. Numerous journalists yelped out in fear during this section, and even Ted Price was caught off-guard during his presentation. Hell, I was terrified even as Blink-182 blared over the venue's sound system.
Once out of the forest and back on a more linear path, you're confident that you can take whatever the game throws at you. And just as you're standing in a narrow corridor, that's when you face off against a heavily shielded hulking behemoth, one that killed me quite a few times.
Not too soon after, I found myself literally pinned up against a wall as an entire squad of Chimeran troopers came my way. Surely, this is not a game that encourages you to kick back, relax, and take it easy.
As for the new weapons, my favorite was the Splicer and its saw blades, which bounce around the battlefield. It even has a nifty melee attack, allowing you to get up close and personal with your foes, Gears of War-style.
New to the Resistance 2's multiplayer modes are special abilities known as berserks. Unlike Call of Duty 4's perks, these abilities aren't always active, and instead must be charged through battling before use.
Turn the page for more on the game's competitive and cooperative multiplayer._PAGE_BREAK_
Claiming that "creative weapons breed creative player decisions," Rolson described a scenario in which an invisibility-equipped opponent infiltrates and enemy base and starts chopping them up with the Splicer.
Of course, that is just one of many possible combinations. And the more players battle online and accrue experience, the more berserks they'll unlock, though only one can be equipped at any given time.
Experience also plays a key role in Resistance 2's class-based 8-person online cooperative mode, which co-op lead Biegel claims is "revolutionary."
Set in heavily modified multiplayer maps and allowing upwards of 100 enemies on-screen--"My engine director would kill me for saying this," Biegel said half-jokingly--the co-op campaign fleshes out the overall narrative by providing additional story bits for each map.
Much like Team Fortress 2, success requires that a team properly coordinate among those three classes. With their heavy-duty mini-gun and shield, Soldiers are on the front lines. They're backed by Spec Ops, who dole out ammunition and attack with their own machine gun, while Medics heal everyone and, if possible, sap some energy from foes.
Luckily, each class has their own distinctive HUD to help them fulfill these goals. Medics can see the health of their teammates, allowing them to hit those that need it most amidst the constant cries of "Medic!" and "Heal please." Likewise, if you're playing Spec Ops, you'll see a little icon over the heads of those that need ammo.
And I'm not kidding when I say that teamwork is required. At one point, a flood of foes appeared all around us, requiring us to group together as we worked through the horde. Another battle, this time with bigger mini-boss like creatures, had some of us out there distracting the big guys while Soldiers filled them with mini-gun fire and Medics tried to keep us alive.
In addition to furthering each game mode, the experience earned in both multiplayer and single-player pools into an overall Resistance 2 rank, which Price reckons is the first time a game has combined campaign and multiplayer experience.
But while the bulk of Resistance 2 is set to improve upon the original Resistance, at least one aspect of the original won't return: vehicles.
"It was a tough call for us," Price explained to me. "Vehicles, like bosses, take a lot of special code, a lot of one-off code, and they end up being one-off design challenges. Instead, we decided to put all that energy into bosses."
We'll have to wait and see what else Insomniac has in store for us. I didn't get to toy around with any of the major boss battles, and the studio is still teasing an update to MyResistance.net community site said to pack "very unique social networking features." That said, so far, so good.
A PlayStation 3 exclusive, Resistance 2 hits November 4.

LEE - Entering his second year of college, Austin Herzig is exploring the boundaries of independence in new and exciting ways.
He no longer lives with his parents and his new lifestyle means juggling a lot of responsibilities: There is the demanding coursework, he knows he can be better at housekeeping and saving money; and college is also an opportunity to form long-lasting friendships and more intimate relationships.
This new phase would challenge many, but it's particuarly so for Austin, who has autism.
"I knew I wanted to live independently," he said.
Despite past struggles, Austin, 24, is challenging himself to live an independent lifestyle -- and with support, he's succeeding at his own pace.
In March, the federal Center for Disease Control and Prevention released a study identifying a 30-percent increase of children diagonosed with autism spectrum disorder, or autism, in two years. The national study identified 1:68 children with autism, which had previously been 1:88.
Health professionals who work with children with autism say it's difficult to tell why the number has increased. But Brenda Butler, a child psychiatrist at Berkshire Medical Center, said it's likely there are more cases of high-functioning autism, where the diagnosis might not be immediately observable, similiar to Austin.
Autism is a neural developmental disorder characterized by social impairments, communication difficulties, and restrictied and repetitive patterns of behavior.
The increase in cases could be attributable to a greater awareness of symptoms, Butler said, and she cautioned that autism can also be mistaken for social anxiety disorder.
"This has been a trend over the last 10 to 15 years with autism, where the diagnoses have increased and the number [has increased] dramatically," Butler said.
Jen Chaney, an autism specialist for Community Resources for People with Autism, said independent living is a common concern for parents with older children with a high-functioning form of autism.
Whether their children can live independently, Chaney said, largely depends on the individual's skills, but there are programs in Mass Rehab and the Department of Development Services that can assist people with job placement and independent living.
Austin, a native of South Africa and now a student at Berkshire Community College, is studying for his associate's degree as a social worker. In 2012, he moved to the U.S. and enrolled in the College Internship Program, a post-secondary program in Lee for young adults dealing with symptoms in the autism spectrum.
Except for a brogue South African accent -- which sounds British -- Austin is indistinguishable from other young adults. But he didn't talk until he was 4 -- and his parents thought he might be deaf. Both he and his older sister were diagnosed with autism. They struggled in school, but once put in more accomodating programs, they excelled.
Austin is passing his classes at Berkshire Community College. His sister is studying for her doctoral degree in the United Kingdom after earning her undergraduate and master's degree at the prestiguous Cambridge University.
"When I was younger ... I was fairly more isolated from everyone else," Austin said.
But he's changed in two short years. "Basically, I came with the mindset to do as much as I can. To take CIP seriously. I've been able to resolve a lot."
His parents, who were visiting from the UK this week, also have noticed a change.
"He's advocating for himself, he's much more aware of his strengths and weaknesses," his mother, Anita, said.
His father, Stephen. added, "He's much more willing to take risks, and he makes more of an effort to talk to groups."
To better deal with autism, Austin has had to better understand himself. He still gets nervous when taken outside of his comfort zone. He can get overwhelmed with schoolwork and knows he needs to pace himself.
Working with CIP, Austin has been building his confidence to ask questions. He would hesitate in the past because he didn't want to waste people's time and he wasn't sure if he made sense. Each weekend at CIP, he goes out with others, most recently to Crossgates Mall in Albany, to gain more confidence. He also works with CIP advisers.
For his parents, they also had to deal with the diagnosis and then decide what was best for their children.
"When you talk about factual information, it'll blow you away," Anita said. "When it comes to expressing their emotion, they have emotions, and they don't express as we do. They pick up all your words literally."
Anita said she focused on her children's strengths and reflected on her own strenghts and weaknesses, to find the support they needed.
Anita's daughter, a natural academic, went to school in the UK, but the mother knew her son wouldn't adjust well with the country's rigid testing-oriented education system. She searched and found a program she could trust and believe in with CIP. Austin knew he had limited opportunities in South Africa, and he agreed to make the most of it.
The Herzigs sold their home and received a $40,000 donation from two former business partners to pay for Austin's education.
Eventually, Anita knew she had to let her children grow and flourish on their own.
"It's such hard work for them to come into your world," Anita said. "You have to go on a journey to go in their world and tap into that."

GSK Thienopyrimidine Series
The first structure in this series, | TCMDC 135294, has the following structure:
| ChEMBL 581088 link.
| ChemSpider link.
SMILES: Nc1ncnc2cc(sc12)c3cccc(c3)S(=O)(=O)N
Of all structures on the GSKTCAMS that have the aminothienopyrimidine moiety, this molecule has the most attractive ALogP value and the lowest molecular weight, thus making it amongst the most attractive starting points. (search performed by Jim Cronshaw 5/8/12 on ChemblNTD. There are molecules with better inhibition values etc.
The proposed synthesis for this compound is below:
The step that involves n-BuLi would best be avoided, and if a more direct route of arriving at the Suzuki coupling step could be discovered, that would take a potentially dangerous and difficult step out of the synthetic route.
One possibility, involving NIS and an ionic liquid such as 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (which our lab doesn't have, but which is available from Aldrich in catalytic quality from $247/5g), is found below:
[doi:10.1016/j.tetlet.2011.03.010 DOI]
[dx.doi.org/10.1139/V09-125 Here] is another alternative, where the direct iodonation of arenes can be carried out using oxone and NaI. Whether or not this would work in my compound, given selectivity issues, is something that I'll have to investigate.
This paper shows a method of direct halogenation of thiophenes. This uses [Bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodo]benzene, which we don't have lying around, but which can be bought from Aldrich for $136/10g. The reactivity of thiophenes vs pyrimidines is something I'll have to look into. UPDATE: I've read Clayden et al. (2012, p 727) and I'm informed that pyridine is, generally speaking, terrible at electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. My understanding is that pyrimidine has the same reactivity as does pyridine, so there shouldn't be any selectivity problems with any of these reactions (a result that was perhaps anticipated by the BuLi reaction proceeding at the alpha position on the thiophene ring in the first place).
--- July 9th.
The BuLi reactions have literature precedent. Heffron (2010) acheives a very similar reaction, albeit with protection of a pyrimidine position (which doesn't seem to be reacting in my case anyway). Snegaroff (2009) uses (TMP)3CdLi to acheive the metallation/iodination. This less harsh base can be used at rt. This author discovered the reagent, so they are probably interested in self promotion. In any case, there is precedent for the lithium metallation proceeding.
--- July 18th
A post on ChemForums suggested that the sulfur might react with the iodine. According to Joule & Mills (p. 234) this won't happen. "The five membered heterocycles do not react with electrophiles at the heteroatom." and "...in pyrrole, electrophilic addition at the nitroge would lead to a substantial loss of resonance stabilisation - the molecule would be converted into a cyclic butadiene, with an attached nitrogen carrying a positive charge localised on that nitrogen atom.
Thiophene Starting Material Synthesis
Additionally, the thiophene available from Sigma Aldrich for $159/10g can be made from the following synthesis.
TCMDC 135294 is part of a series with one other member, | TCMDC 135255, shown below:
| ChEMBL639249 link.
| ChemSpider link.
SMILES: Nc1ncnc2cc(sc12)c3cccc(NC(=O)Nc4ccccc4)c3
A list of commercially available compounds with similar structures to the one I'm trying to synthesise were identified with much help from Iain Wallace. If you're reading this and are interested in donating samples of these compounds, feel free to contact me: Jim Cronshaw
Iain Wallace created a cytoscape file which details purchaseable compounds related to the two series that I am trying to make. The file can be found here, and Cytoscape can be downloaded for free here (one will need to activate the chemviz plugin, which can be activated from within Cytoscape). The results of this work, in the form of a list of purchaseable compounds, can be found here
A list of the above compounds in .csv format, with InChi, InChiKey, SMILES and eMolecules identifiers, can be found here.
These compounds, and relevant data, are shown below:
Two compounds have since become unavailable from Enamine. These are commercially available but with a less strict similarity search on emolecules. http://www.emolecules.com/cgi-bin/rene/visitor.cgi?h=c22c97319d83c434da71f7f53149d7d2aaf0fe3014125ab4

Samir Nasri confirms he has opened contract talks with Manchester City
Samir Nasri has revealed he has opened talks with Manchester City over a new deal at the Etihad Stadium.
By Patrick Haond
Last Updated: 31/03/14 2:26pm
The Frenchman has just over a year to run on his current deal at City and the club are keen to tie down the attacking midfielder to a new contract.
The 26-year-old has established himself as a key member of Manuel Pellegrini's side and he has been one of City's star performers this season.
Nasri is confident that a new deal will be sorted out and he has thanked Pellegrini for showing confidence in him.
"We have just started talks so far. We didn't find any agreement yet. But it should be sorted out," Nasri told French television show Canal Football Club
"I want to stay. I can feel people appreciate me and the coach is trusting me."
Nasri insists he has no regrets about leaving Arsenal for City in the summer of 2011 and explained the motive for his move was to win more honours.
"My departure from Arsenal? When you leave for a club where there is more money, you are supposed to be mercenary," added Nasri.
"I took stock before I went to Manchester City, I was joining a club with Yaya Toure, David Silva, Sergio Aguero, Carlos Tevez.
"I spent three seasons at Arsenal without any title and at the end of the season we sold our best player that was Cesc Fabregas.
"I don't want to be disrespectful, but I had a meeting with Arsene Wenger who told me to not be worried, he signed Gervinho and he will get reinforcements.
"I preferred to join City and I won titles and indeed I earn a better living. And why not a second national title in three years?
"I am very happy with my choice."

So everyone wants blood.
After a 1-7 home record in 2010, it is clear the Dolphins not only need significant changes, they will make significant changes. But I wish I could report to you the changes will be the right ones done by the right people.
If today you are in the camp wanting Tony Sparano and Jeff Ireland ousted, I am not with you. I still think those guys can get it done, although they make it harder to believe and defend every time Miami plays, particularly at home.
Let me present to you some facts about making a change so high up the organizational ladder:
First, who is owner Stephen Ross turning to for advice so that he makes a sound decision? He is not turning to Bill Parcells. Parcells put Ireland and Sparano in their current jobs and even he understands if you win, you stay employed. If you lose, you're out. Parcells would be a good voice for Ross to listen to. He knows football, the Big Tuna does. Parcells brought Mike Nolan to the Dolphins when the defense was broken. Maybe he can suggest an offensive coordinator to fix the offense. Maybe he can suggest another coach or GM, if that's what Ross absolutely must have. Or maybe Parcells can talk sense to Ross about Sparano and Ireland.
But Parcells and Ross don't typically discuss Ireland and Sparano. Oh, they talk, but usually it's about other topics such as labor issues. That seems such a waste of Parcells to me. But that is the way it currently stands.
So who is in Ross's ear?
Friend and former Kansas City Chiefs President Carl Peterson? How many Super Bowls did he win? Do the Chiefs, who just won the AFC West, miss him?
CEO Mike Dee? He's a marketing genius and something of a baseball guy. If I wanted to fill Fenway Park, I know he'd be the guy to turn to. But that's not the assignment. The assignment is to fill Miami's trophy mantle.
Vice Chairman and Partner Jorge Perez? He's a very good friend of Ross's and has his ear. But Perez is a builder of building not NFL teams. His NFL experience and acumen is approximately zero.
Marc Anthony? Emilio Estefan? Gloria Estefan? Fergie? Serena Williams? Venus Williams? Which one of these brilliant football minds should Ross listen to with a sense that they know what needs to be done going forward?
Look, if the idea is for Ross to do the popular thing, then he should go ahead and simply listen to the fans. They want Jon Gruden. They want Bill Cowher.
Both will sell tickets.
But Gruden has had zero success when he has to build a team. And Cowher only reminds me of a more accomplished Tony Sparano in his football philosophy. Both, of course, would bring their own GM types. Gruden's past GMs have been terrible. Cowher's better, but only after years and years of patience.
Which one of those two guys comes with a franchise quarterback?
Oh, neither one. Well then, the change would be a waste, in my opinion. Simply the Dolphins will continue to struggle under any coach until the team has a star quarterback. It hasn't had one since around 1994ish. And so the Dolphins have been in a relative funk since 1995ish.
Solve the QB issue, you solve myriad issues. Don't solve the QB issue and I say it will not matter who the coach and GM are.
And since you are reading this, Mr. Ross, this is what I would do: Sit Tony Sparano and Jeff Ireland down and tell them to find a QB. No excuses. They failed in not drafting Matt Ryan. They failed in picking Chad Henne. They failed in picking Pat White.
They get one more chance this offseason. Find the quarterback or they're done. No excuses.
I assume those marching orders would motivate these two to scour free agency, consider any trade seriously, and be willing to do that which no Dolphins organization had done lately during the draft -- trade up.
All those should be on the table for the sake of adding a franchise quarterback. Without one, it doesn't matter if Ross is able to bring back a cloned 40-year-old Don Shula. No coach can win in today's NFL without a quarterback.
That should be Job One. Forget about firing the head coach. Hire a franchise QB and the head coach will get instantly smarter.
That's my two cents.

ea63 and ea71,81 heads
Posted 02 June 2009 - 09:28 AM
I tried to find answer using search but didn't find it so here is my guesstion:
can ea63 heads be used in ea81? I have ea81, I live in Finland and here is some crazy laws and I'm trying to follow them.
I'm putting ea81 to my 1972 beetle but there is too much horsepower. I can put 60hp engine to beetle but ea81 have 73hp. Our law says that if I take ea63 heads and swap them to ea81 horsepower of the engine will be the same that is in ea63 58hp.
I hope it can be done but I doubt it.

Posted 02 June 2009 - 02:23 PM
But you could install turbo pistons, lowering the comp. ratio to 7.7.... that would likely get it down to 60 hp.
Posted 03 June 2009 - 09:30 AM
lawa says that I can't "antipower" the motor but if I add turbo to my ea81 it's not an factory motor anymore but if I do that how much it can take? this is because the lawa says that if I have DIY motor I have to proof the horsepowers so if I add turbo and measure only 60hp it's ok. this is the original plan before this ea63 heads stuff.
what is the differense between normal pistons and turbo pistons?
I hope someone can understand me:rolleyes:
Posted 03 June 2009 - 01:22 PM
ok thank you for the information.

I hope someone can understand me:rolleyes:
He wasn't suggesting adding an actual Turbocharger. That would increase horsepower.
He was suggesting that you use a set of lower compression pistons, used in the turbo cars. Just add the pistons, not the turbo, got it?
That would lower compression, and horsepower. I am pretty sure below 60.
And then you could run really low octane fuel without risk of pinging.
Posted 03 June 2009 - 07:07 PM
what is the differense between normal pistons and turbo pistons?
I hope someone can understand me:rolleyes:
The rings are different so you would need a new set of rings to go with them. Otherwise a simple hone job and a new set of rings would do it. I would likely do main and rod bearings as they are cheap and you are going into it anyway since you'll have to hone to get the new rings to seat.
The pistons will drop right on - their only difference is they are "dished" in the center like a bowl - this lowers the compression ratio.
And yes - it would allow you to run really crappy gas too. I'm not sure how much of a "bennefit" that is, but such is the way of low compression.

Posted 04 June 2009 - 02:31 AM
biggest beetle engine is 50hp I can put 20% more so it's 60hp that's the limit to the beetle engine. now when I put subaru engine to beetle there can not be more than 60hp. ea81 has 73hp but problem is that I can't decrease hp from original engine because of the law but if I make home made engine it is just 60 horsepower. one way to do home made engine is add turbo. so if I add turbo to ea81 and then measure it and proof that there is only 60hp I can put it to beetle. engine is home made when it is not original engine in any cars.
I hope this helps
I have modified ea81 quite lot. I use megasquirt to fuel and waste spark or edis-4. there is two injectors in intake manifold and "flap" from saab 9000. turbo will be kkk-03 (have to buy). motor has been running 144 000km. that is one reason why I don't like to open the motor downstairs. heads are opened and I clean the valves and plug the egr.
there is something from my project, maybe I add some pictures and change the topic name
Posted 05 June 2009 - 02:52 AM
Posted 05 June 2009 - 07:48 AM
If you add a turbocharger to an EA81 you will get MORE horsepower not less.
Posted 05 June 2009 - 08:48 AM
I know this is STUPID law but what can I do
Intake is almost ready and some other part too so maybe I take some pictures so you can see what I*m doing.
Posted 05 June 2009 - 01:24 PM
Posted 09 June 2009 - 12:57 AM
My GSR supost to be in factory bhp is 90 something bhp.
and my DL 1400 engine produces about 80 something.
Read both of those in subaru Factory stats somewhere.
Couldnt you maybe grind ea81 of the engine and stamp ea71 or something of that nature on it lol?
is that 60bhp at the wheels or flywheel?
Posted 11 June 2009 - 07:17 AM
it doesn't matter what is bhp on engine the factory info is what inspectors are looking.
that ea81 stamp to ea63 stamp have been in my mind. only thing is if I do that I need picture from ea63 stamp and engine and engine number.

BOSTON — Just the like the Bruins' dressing room, the Montreal room at TD Garden was buzzing with talk of Zdeno Chara's dehydration.
That didn't stop Canadiens forward Michael Cammalleri from getting in another dig against the Bruins and veteran forward Mark Recchi.
Cammalleri was asked if he has had experience with dehydration.
"I try to stay hydrated and use different things that kind of give you the minerals and vitamins you need. I've never been in that situation myself, but a few guys do it. It doesn't look too pleasant.
"I'm no MD, so I'm not going to be like Mark Recchi and diagnose the other team."
Cammalleri was obviously still referring back to Recchi's comments a month ago that the Canadiens might've embellished Max Pacioretty's medical report in the aftermath of Chara's hit on the Habs winger into the stanchion at the Bell Centre. Pacioretty suffered a fractured vertebrae and severe concussion March 8. He has since resumed skating.
Chara was hospitalized last night and treated for dehydration. He's expected to play tonight in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinal series between the Bruins and Habs, which Montreal leads 1-0.
Other Habs players were more diplomatic about the situation. Rookie defenseman P.K. Subban couldn't even see why something that happened last night would affect either side tonight.
"I don't think there's any doubt he's going to be in the lineup," said Subban. "He's one of the best leaders in the league and this is the most important time for his team. So as far as we know, we expect him to play."
Hal Gill said he hadn't even heard the news. And forward Travis Moen didn't think that even the presence of a slightly sick Chara on the other side would change Montreal's approach.
"He's a good defenseman," said Moen, "so I don't know if it's going to affect him too much. We're just going to play our same game plan, try to get pucks behind him and use our speed."

The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries has scheduled a summer/fall drawdown for Anacoco Lake beginning July 18, 2006 extending through Sept. 30, 2006. Anacoco Lake will be lowered to a level of six feet below pool stage (188 MSL).
Vernon Lake will be drawn down no more than three feet below pool elevation (242 MSL), beginning Oct. 1, 2006 and extending through Oct. 31, 2006. The timing of the Vernon Lake drawdown had been selected to assist in the refilling of Anacoco Lake, downstream.
The drawdown on both lakes will allow property owners to make repairs following the destructive wind and waves accompanying Hurricane Rita. However, the main reason for the summer drawdown on Anacoco Lake is to enable LDWF biologists to correct an imbalance of fish populations and allow for consolidation of the water bottom.
Recent surveys indicate poor populations of sport fishes such as bass, bream and crappies, but an abundance of catfishes and common carp. Summer drawdowns allow for the growth of terrestrial plants and oxidation and drying of bottom muck. This should help clear the water and provide desirable game fishes with good spawning substrates.
The Vernon Parish Game and Fish Commission will also remark the boat lanes and channels in both reservoirs as a safety measure.
For more information, contact Bobby C. Reed, LDWF District 5 Fisheries Manager, at 337-491-2577 or email@example.com.

In a new post to her blog today, Ligaya Turmelle mentions a conversation she was having with some of the PHP documentation team about their transitions and the possibilities for integrating something new into the system - creating phpt tests automatically.
Seems Philip and colder were talking on the IRC about possibly using the php doc examples to automatically generate some phpt tests to make sure the examples in the docs worked correctly. I personally think it is a great idea for another reason - it would give the QA team a base listing of phpt tests for the various PHP functions. With that base listing it would be easier to modify/add to the various phpt tests to cover the boundries of the function.
A script to implement this feature is already in the works - a preview of it can even be found here.

Sky Bet Championship: Steve McClaren arrives at Derby for talks
Former England boss Steve McClaren has arrived at Derby for talks about the vacant manager's job.
Last Updated: 30/09/13 5:37pm
Tony Pulis was believed to be the early-front runner for the role at Pride Park following Nigel Clough's sacking after Saturday's defeat to arch-rivals Nottingham Forest.
But McClaren is set to return to management with Derby, the club where he made his name as a coach in the mid-1990s.
Sky sources understand that ex-Manchester United goalkeeper Eric Steele and former Preston manager Paul Simpson have arrived for talks about becoming part of McClaren's backroom staff.
McClaren, who played for the Rams in the 1980s, was assistant to manager Jim Smith when Derby were promoted to the Premier League. He left County in 1999 to become assistant to Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United.
Speaking outside Pride Park, McClaren told Sky Sports News: "I'm just going in to have a quick chat with them.
"Great coming back. It's good to be back and hopefully things will work out."
The former England boss is currently working as part of QPR's coaching staff but R's manager Harry Redknapp admitted he looks set to lose him.
"He's made no secret of the fact he wants to get back into management and we won't be standing in his way if somebody does come in for him," he said.
"We had an agreement that he could leave if a club showed interest and I think there is a good chance we could lose him."
QPR midfielder Joey Barton echoed Redknapp's praise and believes McClaren would be well suited to the vacant role.
"He would be a massive loss for any club," said Barton. "I've really enjoyed my time working with him. I mean from a selfish perspective I sort of hope that he doesn't get the job and stays with us, because he's been brilliant.
"I've always thought he's been one of the best English coaches out there and he gets an unfair media because of his England tenure.
"I think he would be a great benefit for any club. He's certainly a very good coach, very organised, puts on great sessions. He's a great fellow and the perfect sort of guy for that job."
Clough, who was the longest-serving manager in the Championship, was relieved of his duties following a 1-0 defeat at the City Ground.
Darren Wassall has been placed in temporary charge of first-team affairs after four of Nigel Clough's coaching staff were placed on gardening leave.
The Derby board has told Andy Garner, Gary Crosby, Johnny Metgod and Martin Taylor to stay away from the club.
Clough's brother Simon, who was appointed chief scout at the beginning of 2011, has also been placed on gardening leave.
And academy boss Wassall - a former County player who was a team-mate of Clough at Forest - will lead the team into Tuesday's home game against Ipswich.

Every Monday, Scott Andrews contributes Officers' Quarters, a column about the ins and outs of guild leadership. He is the author of The Guild Leader's Handbook, available now from No Starch Press.
Promises, promises. Politicians make them all the time. In fact, many of them get elected based on those promises. No one seems surprised anymore when a politician fails to deliver on a campaign promise, yet our guild members usually expect us to do what we say we will. Could it be that guild officers are actually held to a higher standard? Let's look at this week's email to find out!
Hello I am an officer (well one of 2) in a medium sized semi raiding guild We also have a large number of "casual" players in our guild.
During LK era, we had 2 different 10 man raiding teams going on. Both groups I took the time to rotate different players out each given week so everyone had a chance to raid.The second group was also made up of some of the first group's alts. This was very stressful on me due to I would take all week to get the groups ready only to have someone say at the last minute would say oh I can't make it 5 minutes before raid started, then I would have to rework the "group composition" in a flurry to be able to start the raid on time. Well during Cata we all agreed we did not want to do rotations and only wanted to do 10 man raids and wanted two solid 10 man groups with the same people every week ( with a stand by if needed), so we could work as a "family" unit and mesh well together.

The Michigan Dept. of Community Health worked with the governor to balance this portion of the budget. Instead of cutting payments to Medicaid providers or reducing Medicaid eligibility, the governor's recommendations restructured the Medicaid program using a waiver of federal rules.
The Elder Prescription Insurance Coverage (EPIC) with tobacco settlement dollars has assisted 15,000 low-income seniors with prescription medications. This upcoming fiscal year, EPIC will be extended to 42,000 seniors, nearly tripling the number of beneficiaries.
The governor has also recruited Vermont, Wisconsin and South Carolina for a multi-state purchasing collaboration to keep Medicaid pharmaceutical costs where they are. More states are expected to join the collaboration and it should generate $40 million in savings.
Of most importance, there will be no reduction in payments to those serving Medicaid patients. For example, any doctor, hospital, or nursing home providing care to a Medicaid patient will continue to get the same amount of payments from the state.
Healthy adults will see the biggest change in benefits. The Medicaid Adult Benefit Waiver limits medical benefits for healthy adults, but this waiver should reduce state general fund costs by almost $110 million.

A slender chitinozoan example.
...just like this one, as well. Perhaps they are related.
Above you see 3 neat microfotos of the suspects sought. They are all a bit tiny in comparison to the literature but still within the realm of the possible. Considering the results and occurence time of chitinozoa I dismissed my original ideas and decided these must be part of the Hermsdorf Phyllites. Precambrian or Upper Carboniferous chitinozoa would have been a bit of a far fetch and the rock samples themselfs shared more characteristics with Graphite-Phyllites than Precambrian or Carboniferous Schists. I still should mail this seminar paper to the mine geologist who originally gave is the task to map out the Hermsdorf Phyllites. If I remember correctly he once told me it would be a first to find microfossils in those rocks. So these are Ordovician chitinozoa. Cool. Also cool are some metamophic microtextures. Here you go:
A nice foto of crenulation cleavage under the microscope. Note the quartz in the centre and clay minerals and organics at the sides.
Parallel foliation and segregated quartz. There is no foto of it but it forms a very nice mosaic in another sample.

New Delhi, Apr 3 (ANI): Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh on Wednesday said that he is confident of achieving eight percent economic growth despite a disappointing performance over the last couple of years.
He also urged captains of Indian industry to correct the investment environment and reflect more carefully on their social responsibilities.
Inaugurating a two-day annual general meeting of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) here, Dr. Singh said the growth process of the country must be made more inclusive.
"We grew at a rate of eight percent in the last ten years, and we can grow like that again," he added.
He further said: Five percent growth is clearly disappointing, but added that the current economic downturn is temporary."
Emphasising on the need to restore macro-economic balance in the country, Dr. Singh expressed confidence that India would achieve the fiscal consolidation target.
Dr. Singh also stressed upon the need to tackle weak export performances and the high current account deficit.
Around 1,500 industrialists from across the country are attending the meeting. The theme for this year's deliberation is "India Tomorrow: Imperatives of Growth, Security and Governance". (ANI)

At the time when I wrote the letter I already copied everything over to the new partitions. All I needed was to hack the kernel. Since that failed I was just merely wondering if I should wait for a fix or should I try to copy the old kernel over and see what happens. I guess I got my answer.
It is too bad too because the new kernel speed my TiVo up a lot. I copied the old kernel over the new one and the TiVo is back to being slow again. Well... Better hacked than fast that is for sure.
By the way sorry for the cross posting I couldn't decide which one to post as it was not really a support question but more like an inquire about futute development. Also I was suprised that neither talked about 3.1.5d

all the tivo kernels i have seen should fit into a 2mb kernel partition. you should be able to use a normal dd, but limit the number of blocks so you get 2mb instead of the full 4mb.Originally Posted by AbMagFab

Thanks for the 4.0.1a kernel. I restored all my backups and looked at the other partitions of my 4.0.1b drive but that is also 4.0.1b so it helps me out a lot to get the 4.01a kernel from you. However I can not seem to find out why it does not work for me. I am sure that I am doing something horribly wrong (go easy on me). This is what I do:
- Backup current 4.0.1b SVR-3000 2 disk setup.
- Restore to a temp 160 GB as original 80 hours and validate it works by puting it into the tivo.
- Check boot kernel partition which is partition 3
- Copy the image to partition 3 with: dd if=/mnt/dos/vmlinux.px of=/dev/hdc3
- Validate that it boots in tivo: stuck in almost there.
- Restore and copy the image again and run killhdinitr /dev/hdc3 gives me:
Orig blocks = c83
Orig image size = 1907e0
Extended image size = 190fe0
Kernel + initrd = 190593
Kernel + initrd crc32 = e5067b1f
No exploit found
I also tried adding bs=4M conv=sync,notrunc etc I get the same result.
Could you or anybody else who had success loading these kernels give me a hand? I aprritiate it.

I downloaded the 4.0.1a kernel and verified that killhdinitrd 0.9.2 works on it:Originally Posted by pbolya
Our output from killhdinitrd looks similar, but is not identical. Are you using the 0.9.2 version of killhdinitrd? I don't think the earlier version supported this kernel.orig blocks = 00000c83
orig image size = 001907e0 (excludes header)
extended image size = 00190fe0
kernel+initrd length = 00190593 (excludes sig)

identified kernel: 2.4.18 from TiVo OS 4.0.1a
new blocks = 00000c85
new image size = 00190be0 (excludes header)
I don't actually use that kernel. I boot a killhdinitrd'd 3.1.1c kernel, then monte into a homebuilt 2.4.18 kernel (built from 4.0 sources with lba48 and fpa patches).
Wow,Originally Posted by Jamie
I can not believe I just did that. Even though I downloaded the 0.9.2 I was following a how to thread and looks like that one has 0.9.1 linked. It worked for the HR10-250 but obviously does not work with the SVR-3000. I copied that one to the floppy and worked like a charm.
Thanks a lot,
PS. It was strange that the tivo did not load with the 4.0.1a until I run killhdinitr on it (I am sure this is normal it just threw me off track). By the way both versions of killhdinitrd says public beta 0.9.0 0.9.2 is just a little bit smaller.
a killhdinitrd'd 3.1.1c kernel will boot any s2 short of the humax models, then you can monte into 3.1.5, 3.1.5d, 3.1.1d, 3.1.1e, 5.2, 5.2.1a, homebrew or <whatever floats your boat> kernel using a bogus rc.sysinit like this

I read all the advice on "enhancing" my dtivo box including waiting until after the initial phone call to start the upgrade process. This phone call updated the software release on my Hughes SD-DVR40 to 3.1.1d. When I try and run the latest killhdinitrd on this kernel (/dev/hda3 on my system) I get:
orig blocks = 00000db1
orig image size = 001b63e0 (excludes headers)

I've also tried /dev/hd6, but from the partion map I'm pretty sure that 3 is the right one:

Why don't you just killhdinitrd a 3.1.1c kernel as stated in the post above and try it with no monte and see if it works.
If not you can always monte from 3.1.1c into 3.1.1d.

If you used killhdinitrd before on your 3.1.1c than it is probably still sitting in /dev/hda6. Try :Originally Posted by darylhuff
This assumes that you had a 3.1.1c killhdinitrd'd kernel on hda6 and your new kernel in hda3.Code:dd if=/dev/hda6 of=/dev/hda3
If I where you I would put a dos disk in as hda-primary master and put your a drive to hdc-secondary master and back up the current kernel before you change anything with the following command:
Code:mkdir /mnt/dos mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/dos dd if=/dev/hda3 of=/mnt/dos/tivokernel_3.1.1d.bak

Pirkei Avos [Hardcover]
Ethics of the Fathers - A New Translation with a Commentary Anthologized from the Classical Rabbinic Sources.
"Moses received the Torah from Sinai and transmitted it to Joshua" These simple words introduce Avos, the world's best-known tractate of the Mishnah. It is an introduction that speaks volumes about Jewish belief and the Torah's teachings. Avos is a book of ethics, honesty, and advice. It is idealistic and practical, visionary and down to earth, demanding and tolerant. But at its very beginning it tells us that even this part of Jewish life came from Sinai; from the Divine Lawgiver. And that Moses taught not only law and ritual, he taught Jews how to lead and live, how to judge major court cases and the minor foibles of their neighbors. All of that is part of Judaism. There is a challenge and inspiration in this fact. It means that religions, service of the Creator, embraces every human act and every human relationship. What can be more inspiring than the knowledge that every smile and kind word can be a cosmic act? And what can be more challenging than the realization that every moment of our day demands as much insight as the most intense interlude of prayer or study? This slim volume, Pirkei Avos / Ethics of the Fathers, presents a new translation and concise commentary on Avos. And it contains an overview that sheds new light on the book.
