Jewish Attorney
Is Mentioned For
Judgeship Here
Among those most promin-
ently mentioned for apoint-
ment by Gov. Doyle Carlton
to the vacancy in the office
of Circuit Court Judge caused
by the recent resignation of
Judge A. J. Rose, is the name
of Benjamin Axelroad, promi-
nent Jewish attorney and
communal worker.
Mr. Axelroad has been a
resident of Miami for quite
some time and is a very active
member of the American Le-
gion of which he is and has
been for the past several
years one of its officers. He
is the past President of the
local Sholom Lodge of Bnai
Brith and also a member of
the Executive Board of the
Community Chest. He has
been an active worker in local
civic- and charitable organiza-
tions and is well thought of
amongst both Jews and Gen-
Our readers will recall that
when former Gov. Martin was
to make an appointment to
the Civil Court of Record he
would have appointed Mr.
Axelroad to the position were
it not for the debacle caused
by a number of others seek-
ing the position. This gave
the former Governor the op-
portunity of saying that since
the Jewish population was not
united upon its choice he
would appoint none of the
Jewish faith.
Mr. Axelroad is married
and has two children. His wife
is president of the local chap-
ter of the Council of Jewish
Women and is herself one of
the exceptionally active Jew-
ish women of Miami, in Jew-
ish and civic affairs.

Raffle Prize Win-
ners Announced
The raffle held by the
Chesed Shel Ernes Society for
the benefit of the Cemetery
fund resulted in the two
prizes, one a bed room lamp
and the other a boudoir doll
cushion being won by Mr.
Wolf Cohen, pioneer merchant
of Miami. The winning num-
bers were 28 for cushion and
470 for" the lamp.
The Chesed Shel Ernes So-
ciety was organized several
years ago for the purpose of
providing free burial for those
whose families were unable
to pay for the considerable
costs involved. A burial
ground was purchased at the
Woodlawn Cemetery and
beauttifully landscaped and
perpetual care arranged for.
In the few years of its exist-
ence it has already demons-
trated the need for its organ-
A very imposing gateway
and fence have been built
around the burial ground and
will shortly be dedicated with
appropriate ceremonies.
Actively in charge of the
raffle was Mr. Manuel Rippa
one of the oldest Jewish resi-
dent of Miami and South Flor-
ida who was one of the organ-
izers of the Chesed Shel Ernes.

Morris August, of August
and Winter, leaders in the
cloak and suit trade, puffed
at his cigar leisurely. Pater-
nally surveying with satisfied
countenance his "dime de-
light," he lent to it a double
Corona dignity.
"Winter," said he, "we must
build for us a Centre. We had
a good season and the other
boys in our section had also
fine turnovers. We will give
a good contribution and makt;
a Temple that should be a fine
'number,' a very 'good* sell-
er.' "
"But remember, Morris, it
is not enough to build a Cen-
tre. There must be a giving
of ourselves not merely a giv-
ing of something of ours. We
must be really interested in
our product before we can
make it a success."
The individual today finds
himself, unlike his predecss-
sors, living in an age of ma-
chinery and "big business," in
an age of combination and
centralization and mirable
visu, in an age when huge
concrete and steel structures
seek to play with the heavens.
We cannot help but be im-
presed by number, size and
quantity. Caught in the mael-
strom of tremendous finance
and garagantuan enterprise,
the mark of magnitude and
magnificence is indelibly
stamped upon our inner
selves. Pomp and ostentation
become sort of acquired char-
acteristics with us. The man
in the street as well as the
high-powered salesman
speaks of millions and of real
estate subdivisions. Automo-
biles are turned out by the
thousands every week and
musicians and pseudo-artists
seek to keep up with the pace.
Deficiencies in quality we seek
to veneer with quantity. De-
ficiencies in the truth of our
statements we attempt to
bury beneath a mass of de-
tail. The character of an in-
dividual we too often judge
by the quantity of his mater-
ial worth rather than by his
qualities. So strongly has
quantity, size and appearance
been impressed upon our sub-
conscious that in religion too
it is believed that lack of qual-
ity may be made good by add-
ed quantity. The strength of
a religion we appraise by the
glory and magnificence of the
temples and cathedrals rather
than by the beauty of its prin-
ciples and doctrines. We
stress, as it has been often
sagely remarked, "the holi-
ness of beauty and not the
beauty of holiness."
And so this love of appear-
ances and large scale accom-
plishment, impressed upon
the individual in his modern
environment, our "big-busi-
ness" man brings with him to
his religion. Unsatisfied with
the physical appearance of his
House of Worship, and per-
haps rightly so. he eloquently
appeals to the pride of his fel-
low members pointing out
that other congregations have
more beautiful synagogues.
With righteous indignation
he declares that it is an af-
front to the Almighty to wor-
ship Him in such pitiful look-
ing quarters, for how can He
accept their prayers when the
acoustics are so wretched, or
is it because they intone their
prayers with apathy. The
members gallantly respond to
the call. Mortgages are raised
and the Centre is built. Then
comes that great day when
the beautiful edifice, presum-
ably dedicated to the service
of God isot open its bronze
portals to the expectant mul-
titude. The Rabbi speaks and
politicians orate. The golden
key is then auctioned off. It
brings a record price. Is it be-
cause, whisper it only, the
vain glorious bidder may have
the honor of being the only
one to open the Centre until
the High Holy Days are ob-
served? With chant of choir
and fanfare of trumpets, the
edifice is formally opened for
What a sight greets the
eye. The Cararra marble of
the Holy Ark, the beautifully
made pews of oak, the glisten-
ing crystals of the huge
chandeliers the soft carpets
that seem to blot out the
tread of feltall conducive to
wonderful services. What
crowds crowd the House of
God, what throngs its spacious
aislesall enthusiastic and
joyous, all admiring the beau-
ty of their new home. It
thrills the heart and warms
the soul to see som any men,
women and children in the
House of the Lord. And yet,
we are enthused so quickly.
Like a mirage it is beautiful
but like a mirage it is an
illusion and soon passes away.
The throngs, the enthusia-
ism, what were they? Signs
and expressions of vanity and
jealous pride. They came to
view the culmination of a-
nother of their successful
achievements, an example of
their ostentation, They gave,
they spent, they worked and
they constructed not a House
of Worship, wherein the spirit
of religious enthusiasm im-
pelled them to go and to cast
off the burden of worldly
thoughts and cares, but an
edifice that was beautiful on-
ly because of its veneer of ma-
hogany and its tinsel of gold.
What can be more soul-
chilling than a synagogue
that lacks nothing but wor-
Reared to the glory of God,
how often does it serve to
perpetuate the reproach of
man ? And how many of these
edifices, models of architec-
ture and synagogal beauty,
accuse us as hypocritical and
vain, we who had built them
for His glory and yet forsake
His sanctuary?
We do not condemn the ef-
forts of our big business men
to make us Houses of Prayer
more beautiful. Such efforts
need encouragement but we
cannot condone the fact that
enthusiasm and spirit with
which they erect these Cen-
tres are not carried over into
attendance at the synagogue,
into their devotion and into
their prayers.
The Centre or Synagogue, if
it is to serve as such, must
be only an outward material
expression of the spiritual edi-
fice that we have first resolv-
ed to erect in our heart. Cen-
tres cannot be built of rocks
and stones only; they must be
built of living beauty, of fath-
ers, of mothers and of their
Morris August, of August
and Winter, leaders in the
cloak and suit trade, puffed
at his cigar leisurely. Pater-
nally surveying his "dime de-
light," he lent to it a double
Corona dignity, but his face
reflected defeat and dejection.
Winter, his junior partner,
interrupted his reverie. "I
told you, Morris, tha tit is not
enough to build a Centre. We
must be really interested in
our product before we tan
make it a success."
It seems like a fairy tale:
but I have been told that
"once upon a time" the Bible
was a popular book among the
Jews. Now, I know it is mere-
ly famous, and only those who
have good reasons for doing
so, study it from time to time.
The reasons vary among
the different groups of peo-
ple. Dilletante philosophers
study the Bible to refute it;
historians to know how much
history it contains; some
scholars to understand their
Bible criticism, others to be
able to quote and adorn their
lectures. The rabbis, however,
have the best reason of all
the Bible is the meat of their
Have you ever analyzed the
method by which a sermon
comes into being? You may
claim that this is impossible
of analysis, because sermons
always are. The rabbi preach-
es only that which he heard
from his grandfather or
from somebody else's grand-
father, if his own was not a
preacher. I am, however, kind-
er than that. I grant to the
sermon a Hegelian "being and
becoming" which constantly
changes form though not the
matter, and is oblivious of
time. So follow me kindly

duous scientific analysis of

This age is one of great
achievements in the field of
journalism. It has concerned
itself more with biographical
productions than with any
other type. Yet we are com-
pelled to confess that the
Jewish race has not done jus-
"tice to the memory of ht
great personages that em-
bellish its glorious history.
Unlike the non-Jewish races,
who always honor their bene-
factors, we have paid little at-
tention to those Jews who
have contributed magnificent-
ly to the course of time. It is
many years since the erudite
Dr. Joseph Jacobs conceived
the idea of compiling a sketch
of what Jews have contribut-
ed to civilization. Dr. Jacobs
gave a comprehensive account
of his plans in his first vol-
ume of "Jewish Contributions
to Civilization." Unfortunate-
ly, this profound scholar was
taken from us before he could
continue his noble work, and
it has been left undone to this
day. It was a sad event for
the Jewish people for they
were bereft of one of their
most respected leaders and
outstanding historians.
Tohse of us who are stu-
dents of the Hebrew race
know only too well the lack
of books treating of the ac-
complishments of Jews who
have enriched our modern
age. Even in our large and
magnificent libraries there is
a great number of volumes
devoted to scientists, musi-
cians, artists etc., but within
the pages of these books the
contributing Jews of the
world are seldom, if ever,
mentioned. This causes us to
wonder at the reticence of our
learned journalists who per-
mit such unfairness to exist.
It may be urged that Jewish
journals and newspapers pub-
lish occasionally accounts of
the achievements of distin-
guished Jews, but this will
scarcely satisfy the mass of
the reading public so well as
a volume or number of vol-
umes dealing specifically with
what Jews have done for Sci-
ence, Art, Literature, and all
the other branches of human
endeavor. It" is true that thes-
is a Jewish Encyclopedia, but
the omissions of this great
work would fill many volumes
and would show the enormous
Jewish contributions to civili-
zation that are not even
known by name.
There is no doubt that ig-
norance regarding the value
of Jewish activities to human-
ity is as widespread among
the Jews as among their Gen-
tile friends. This may be at-
tributed to a large extent to
the misrepresenting of every-
thing Jewish by the antiSem-
itic element and equally to the
lack of proper information
that is given to our youth. If
we ask a Jewish boy, who
prides himself on being a
High School graduate, some-
thing regarding the produc-
tions of Antokolski, he is tak-
en aback with surprise. Why,
Antokolski was not in his
High School vocabulary,
therefore, he is totally inno-
cent of there having been
such a Jewish genius. If we
question a young lady, who is
perhaps decorated with a uni-
versity degree, as to who was
La grande Rachel, she will
stare at us as if we were de-
manding the solution to a
mathetical problem. This all
goes to prove that the need of
suitable reading-matter in
book-form is a matter of ne-
cessity. We often say that the
non-Jew cannot appreciate
the great work that Jews
have conferred on human pro-
gress, but is he totally to
No one can gainsay the fact
that there are many capable
Jewish scholars, who have felt
the need of an instructive lit-
erature which would deal with
outstanding Jewish achieve-
ments. And they have done
their best, so it seems, to ans-
wer the call. One of the most
excellent books on the sub-
ject was Caiman Shulman's
Toldoth Chachmay Israel, but
this was written in a rich and
beautiful Hebrew, and was
never translated into the Eng-
lish language. Another useful
book was "The Jew and Civil-
ization" by Ada Sterling,
which gives a brief outline of
what some Jews have con-
tributed to the world. But it
is interspersed with matter
of an extraneous character,
and does not include many
distinguished Jews who are
renowned for their discover-
ies in the physical and biolog-
ical sciences. Other books
treating of this subject have
been written by learned au-
thors, but fall into the mis-
take of representing a con-
glomeration of names which
makes the work appear as a
kind of dictionary. What then
would be most useful to the
average reader who desires to
obtain a clear account of
achievements by individuals
of the Jewish race?
What is most needed is a
series of volumes devoted en-
tirely to the achievements of
Jews in every phase of human
influence on modern progress.
The biographical sketches
should be arranged with ques-
tions for scholastic purpose,
and should prove of great in-
treest to all pupils. This
thought came to me while en-
gaged in lecturing to our edu-
cational and literary societies.
It would be a boon for the
teacher and pupil if such text-
books were obtainable. The
regular curriculum of instruc-
tion could be supplemented
with the graded study of sev-

eral noted Jews, who have
gained world-wide distinction,
and in this way the student,
as well as the teacher, would
become acquainted with a
branch of history that is
shamefully omitted from the
school course. This should, in
my opinion, disperse the col-
ossal ignorance that exists
in our scholastic institutions
regarding the true contribu-
tions of the Jews to human
In the Hebrew schools of
France and Scotland the Jew-
ish child is taught not only
Hebrew, Yiddish and History,
but is thoroughly grounded
in the lives and careers of dis-
tinguished Jews. That is the
main reason that a child edu-
cated after this form can nev-
er be impressed with anti-Se-
mite propaganda. It may be
claimed that the school-mas-
ters in these countries work
in greater harmony with one
another than they do here;
be that as it may, the chief
object of instruction is not
forgotten, namely, to give
the Jewish child a thorough
education together with an
acquaintance with the careers
of leading intellectuals of
their race. One noteworthy
difference between the sys-
tems adopted in the schools
abroad and those in America
is their total impartiality in
the choice of the famous Jew
taken for study. Whether this
individual be orthodox, or re-
formed Jew, agnostic or even
atheist, if the life and career
of the character are worthy
of consideration, the subject
is pursued in all seriousness.
The pupil is carefully explain-
ed the value of the chosen in-
dividual to society. This is
certainly unique in the his-
tory of teaching as practiced
in Hebrew Schools.
[have often heard that He-
brew teachers find it easier to
instruct their pupils in ready
made courses rather than
elaborate in the field of m
em culture. But teach
should find it a pleasure
explore the wide range of U
erary and scientific trea.su
of 'Jewish genius in order
simplify it for future inst
tion. In this way a grea
interest will be aroused in
student to acquire a knot]
edge of what was hitherto
closed book. It rests entir
with the teacher whether
desires to turn out merep
rot-like pupils as the result

ter, leaving the stadiums to
be filled by non-college men.
When father sends John to
college he usually intends him
to get culture, which means
acquiring a grea dteal of use-
less knowledge, like Latin and
Planch's Theory of Quanta.
Bernard Brown who labori-
ously works his way through
college also begins under the
same misapprehension. But>
not for long. Both Johnny and
Bernard soon discover that
nine tenths of the courses can
.be passed by cramming two
nights before the exams and
learn to look upon those who
really prepare their daily as-
signments as stupid fools who
don't belong in college, or as
future professors who must
naturally master their sub-
jects. They leave their study-
ing for the last two weeks of
the term and devote their
energies the rest of the year
to the achievement of a place
in the literary, athletic, dra-
matic, or political field, as
their inclinations guide them.
This is why American col-
leges produce extraordinary
few scholars. Since colleges
have been democratized, and
thousandsthe vast majority
who enterhave no taste or
ability for real learning, the
old cloister-like scholarly at-
mosphere has vanished and
given way to bustling, noisy,
practical activity. Even those
whose natural proclivities are
with books are often swept
back by the current into this
miniature every-day world of
practical affairs that is cam-
pus life. College no longer pri-
marily prepares for the pro-
fessions, it is no longer a
cloister divorced from the
world; it has become, chiefly
through the effort of the stu-
dents themselves, the nurs-
ery of practical leadership.
Bernard Brown will still
study Latinthe force of tra-
dition is so great but his
heart and his labors are cen-
tered on the editorship of the
Weekly. Billy Bald who came
for a good time will still get
his good time, but somehow
or other he has fallen into a
position where he can become
president of the X-ian Asso-
ciation. So he gives up many
parties to attend serious, edu-
cative, executive meetings and
becomes chairman of an en-
downment drive which takes
up practically every night in
the week. A successful college
record no longer means a Cum
Laude at commencement, but

No heart should ache with longing
No hurt should go too deep
Grant her age-old desire:
A house to love and sweep.
Give her a man beside her

And let them work together
And love a lifetime through.
And let her mother children
As gentle women do.
Give her a shelf for dishes,
And a shining box for bread,
A white cloth for her table,
And a white spread for her bed,
A shaded lamp at nightfall,
And a row of books much read.

A peace more sure and deep

College is not a four year
vacation for rich men's sons,
nor is the under-graduate
school an institution of clas-
sical or scientific learning.
The students have rtansform-
ed the campus into a replica
of the outside world, a micro-
cosm in which the same com-
petitions and ambitions that
activate fathers are set up as
standards for the sons. The
rewrads of the market place
and the forum are made the
rewards of the campus, and
the same scramble for posi-
tions of power and honor that
is termed Life in the outside
world is duplicated at college.
Crowded and suppressed in
the world where adults line
the main thoroughfare and
pre-empt the positions of
power, the intelligent and am-
bitious youth has been forced
into the asylum of the college
where he can compete with
equals, first try his wings
and taste the glofy of success
Here he can work and accom-
plish and, what is more im-
portant, here he can see the
results of his accomplish-
ments, a possibility the out-
side world seldom offers.
The campus thus has be-
come a training school and
testing ground for future men
of affairs, a sort of experi-
mental laboratory for busi-
ness men, social, political and
literary leaders, and its im-
portance can scarcely be over-
estimated. This development

A Time to Win and a Time to Lose
Sandness, Claire. "A Time to Win and a Time to Lose." Kulm Messenger, 22-23 June 1979.
Americans, opportunities abound everywhere. All you have to do is mark them out and take hold of the ones that fit for you, the ones that you can serve with the most effectiveness, the ones you can serve with the most joy and the most satisfaction. Shakespeare wrote that there is a tide in the affairs of men which taken at the flood leads to fortune. Omitted all the voyage of their life is in shallows and in miseries, and we must take the current when it serves or lose our venture.
We have no yesterdays; time took them away. There is a time to be born and a time to die, but we must remember that there is an important element between those two parts. And between those two callings there is a time to seek and a time to lose. And when I think about this, I have to dwell on the makeup and creation of man.
Why are you like you are? What makes you do what you do? What makes you sometimes seek after, and why do you sometimes lose? The Psalmist wrote: "What is man that thou art mindful of him and the son of man that thou does care for him? Yet thou hast made him a little less than God and crowned him with glory and honor."
One cannot help but marvel at the divine design of man; what possesses this spirit of strength not weakness, of hope not fear. In hamlet we read: "What a piece of work is man; how noble in reason, how infinite in faculty, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like his God; the beauty of the world, the paragon of all animals."
Unfortunately many people see opportunities as obstacles and risks not as a challenge, not as an opportunity at all. Every opportunity and challenge worth anything has risks and difficulties, but you dare not dwell on them because how can one seek, how can you achieve, how can you harvest if you don't plant? Where there is no risk, there is no reward. Many opportunities have come to me in my lifetime and yours too I'm sure. Good opportunities. Many of them have challenged me almost beyond my intellectual capacity, almost beyond my courage, and sometimes I think I know first hand what the guy meant who said, "Fools wade in where angels fear to tread."
Along with opportunities come responsibilities. Sometimes those responsibilities are your joy, sometimes it is your duty, often it is both. Sometimes it is yours alone, and sometimes it is yours to share. The opportunity for me to share this day with you people here is a joy indeed. One that I have been looking forward to very much, and one that I really appreciate and thank you for. It is also a joy to have you celebrate with me for 33 years ago today I made a speech before an audience, not this large, and it contained only two words, "I will." The minister asked "Wilt thou?" and I wilted…33 years ago today I married Barbara Potts, I've done some dumb and foolish things in my days, but that isn't one of them. Barbara's background is made up of German and Dutch and Scotch and Irish, and I'm a full blooded Norwegian. So our kids are just kids, I guess. Norwegians are accused of being a very cold and unaffectionate people, but I've proved to Barbara that was not true for I told her the day that we got married that I loved her and if I every changed my mind, I'd let her know. Now really, I tell her that I love her more today than I did yesterday but not as much as I will tomorrow.
I have enjoyed very much thinking about what I could say to you today, reading some things that I had wanted to read and keeping in mind the grand and noble purpose of this celebration, the planning and the work that it involves, the leadership and the following that it required, and I thought of the words of the wise old king: "For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven." What a great truth that is. Why are you here today? For many reasons perhaps, but mostly it is the time and season for this community of Fredonia to gather together in a spirit of love and thankfulness and to make an expression of appreciation. For what? For God's goodness to you people for the kind of life that you have here today, for the generations now gone that worked and sacrificed and even suffered that we might enjoy the life we have in this community and this America. A generation goes, and a generation comes; yet the earth stands firm forever. The sun rises and the sun sets. Then it goes to its place, it speeds and there it rises. Southward moves the wind, and then it turns to the north and it turns and turns again. Into the sea all the rivers go, and yet the sea is never filled; and still to their goal the rivers go. All things are wearisome. No man can say that eyes have not had enough of seeing, ears their fill of hearing. What was will be again; what has been done will be done again; and there is nothing new under the sun. Take anything of which may be said, "Look now, this is new": Already long before our time it existed, only no memory remains of earlier times; just as in times to come next year will not be remembered.
Perhaps one could say that a celebration like this is a time of remembering, a time to look at the past, a time to look at the present, and a time to look to the future. Life can only be understood by looking backwards. But it must be lived by looking forward. We look to the past 75 years of this community, and we see a generation of pioneering people for they were the beginning. And we look at the present, and we see the people of this town and of this community for they are the strength and the growing. And we look to the future, and we see a generation not yet born for they are the future. So we pause together in celebration to remember people, those who were our loved ones, those who were our neighbors and friends now resting from their labors, and we gather to make known to one another a deep appreciation that we feel in the faith and investments that all have made in God, in our land and in each other. The strength of your church, the strength of your land, and the strength of your people is what brought you here today. These strengths have built up and sustained this humanity over the past many years. The strength of the soil. Many of you people are farmers and you know that lesson well. It is a necessity of existence. When we talk about the wonders of our creation, certainly we must talk about our good soil. Our nation is blessed with an abundance of it. It reaches high to the mountain tops and low to the valleys, and the vast bulk of our worldly goods and natural beauty is derived from it. Our good soil produces most of our food. It is a containment for our lakes and streams, a home for our wildflowers and birds and animals. It provides us with oil and coals, precious metals, with stone and most of our minerals, and the great realm of agriculture in all America is made up from this great strength of our land.
I am a farmer, and I never apologize for that. Farming can be one of the most satisfying, enjoyable and rewarding lives that there is, or it can be only a terrible existence. It is up to you. Farm life is what you want it to be. It is what you make it. This is a rural farming community, and when I think of Fredonia and most all other towns and cities of our state, I always think of the community, the community of people working together and sharing together because we all need each other. Williams Jennings Bryant said, "Burn down our towns, they will rise up again; burn down our farms, and the grass will grow in the city streets."
We seek life in many ways and in many forms, and the rewards are returned to us in many dimensions. Life is what we are alive to. It is not length but breath. There's a time to be born and a time to die, and there is a time to win and a time to lose. If we seek only in life the appetite of pleasure, of pride and money, and not goodness and kindness, purity, love and beauty, history, poetry and music and flowers, stars and God and eternal hope, then you have lost already. I know what it is to lose. A farmer is a gambler. He throws his seed like dice on a giant gambling table of land, and he bets his muscles and know-how on the heat of the sun and the turn of a rain cloud, and sometimes he wins and sometimes he loses. And God makes him sweat for his winnings. In my own life as a farmer, I know there's a time to plant and a time to harvest. And that timing is important. What kind of a harvest would I have if I didn't understand that for everything in farming there is a season? So it is in life: There are seasons that one must recognize and serve when they are offered. I suppose that I could say that I have been in a season of politics for a few years now, and for your comfort that season will soon be over for me. Then I will want to serve in some other way or in some other arena, and I'm sure that opportunity will come to me, certainly not knowing now at all what that may be. I know that in politics as in farming it is absolutely necessary to seek help, to seek support and friendship, and still sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. But one must always remember that in politics as in farming and everything else in life, you can't always win. There is a time to lose. And let me remind you that it takes courage to put your name before the public for their support and be willing to risk losing, to risk failure. It is never easy to lose; always easier to win, always easier to say that I was right than to say that I was wrong; but to say that you were wrong and apologize is the mark of a good person. It is the mark of a good executive; it is a strength of character. Certainly as a husband and as a father and as a farmer and as a politician, I haven't always been right. No one has. No one can be. But I have derived strength from the times that I've lost, from the times that I was wrong, and I'm thankful for that. Each time it changes you a little. As we seek, we change; as we achieve, we change; as we win, we change; and as we lose, we change. The world is in constant change and so are people, and some see things that they have loved and cherished disappearing from the scene, and they say that the world will never be the same again.
All about us there is a strange newness, and with the scene is upheaval. They say all is lost, that nothing will remain. It is then that we had better speak sternly to ourselves. There are many things that will change, but there are other things that will always remain the same. Our hope lies in the certainty that there are enduring values. Love is an enduring value. Let us not forget this. Man cannot forever hate. No one can. Beauty is an enduring value. Man cannot live long without it for the same reason that he cannot live by bread alone. Friendship is an enduring value. It is not something passing. Nor is it something shallow. It lies deep within us. It is born in our affections. No distance, no ocean can forever separate the longing in men to live together as friends. Life itself is an enduring value. Tomorrow as yesterday, men and women will kneel before the cradle of little children, and they will dream the same dreams and hope the same hope and utter the same prayers, and out of such dreams and out of such prayers a better world will come.
Yes, that is what man needs to say to himself. We need to say that there are some things in life that are always better than other things, and upon these better things we will live our lives, and upon them we will build our future.
To be sure, there is a time to win and a time to lose. Every person has traveled on those roads. And whether your winnings or your losses in life have been great or small is not as important as what it has done to you. Many people have traveled on the road to destruction because of defeats. Many have traveled on the same road because they have won in life. History has given us many examples of both. I conclude with one.
Vice President Walter Mondale spoke of a man whom we all may have learned many lessons from. He taught us how to win; he taught us how to lose; he taught us how to hope and how to love; he taught us how to live; and finally he taught us how to die. Thank you very much.

text: I posted a thread on this 130 a while ago and how I bought it and it was locked up and had a blue motor on it. Yuck. The table was also in terrible shape. It took me quite a while, but painted the table (purists will hate it, but I love it) and I spiffed up the machine, got the dials freed and now it's sewing great. After all this work I may sell it. LOL. I just don't have the space for all these cabinet machines. I'll have to think on it. Here it is before and then after.

As we prepare to release our SAI 25: World's Most Valuable Startups list, we're running through some final valuation numbers. One company that is a shoo-in for the list is Craigslist (yes, it has been around a while, but we're defining "start-up" as private companies founded in recent memory that has yet to go public or sell out).
We've struggled to get formal business metrics for Craigslist, but ClickZ has summarized a recent report from Classified Intelligence that should help. CI estimates Craiglist's numbers, but it has at least gone through the laborious process of counting listings, pageviews, etc.
So here are some metrics:
2007 Est. Revenue: $55 million
2008 Est Revenue: $81 million
Monthly Pageviews: 9 billion
Monthly Job Listings: 2 million
Monthly Ad Listings: 30 million
Employees: 25
Estimated Costs
Let's assume that each of Craigslist's 25 employees costs about $125,000 a year, all in. That's probably high--Craigslist is run like a non-profit--but it should be in the ballpark. This adds up to about $3 million of salary and other HR costs. Let's assume that Craigslist will grow this year, and let's assume that it spends another few million on prosaic costs like rent, insurance, travel, etc. Total estimated 2008 operating expenses: $7.5 million.
On the "cost of sales" line, let's assume that Craiglist spends a boatload on servers and bandwidth to keep the site running smoothly. Craigslist's content is not at all bandwidth intensive--all light text, no computation or transactive processing like eBay or Google--so this should keep its costs well below those of other huge global sites. Let's call it $50 million a year. (This is probably high--grateful for any help in refining).
Add all that together and use the CI revenue estimate, and you have a business with about $80 million in revenue and, say, $25 million in operating profit. Apply a 10X revenue multiple and/or 25X operating income multiple, and you would have a company worth about $750 million. But obviously Craigslist is worth a heck of a lot more than that.
Craigslist's Real Value
Why is Craigslist worth more than meets the eye? Because it's run like a non-profit. Craig Newmark and co. don't give a damn about generating revenue or profit, and more power to them. But if Craig ever want to sell Craigslist, he'd probably want to get something closer to true value for it--which means we need to think about the company's real earning power.
Let's assume that, instead of charging for job ads in only 11 cities, Craigslist charged for all job ads (currently 2 million a month). Let's assume that it also charged for another 5 million of the 30 million ads on the site each month. Let's assume that Craigslist users were so horrified by the outrage of being charged even a de minimus listing fee that two thirds of these listers stormed off in a huff so that the 7 million of paid listings dropped to, say, 2.5 million a month. And let's assume that Craigslist charged its standard $25 job listing fee for all of them.
What would that generate in revenue? $62.5 million per month, or $750 million a year.
Let's further assume that this outrageous affront to a minority of users--$25 per listing!--would require huge customer service and processing costs, so that Craigslist's overall cost base jumped to $250 million a year. Then we'd have a business with $750 million in revenue and $500 million of operating profit.
Let's put very conservative revenue and operating profit multiples on that--say 7X revenue and 10X operating profit--and we're conservatively looking at a business worth $5 billion.
Thoughts? Speak now or forever hold your peace.

NEWNAN, Ga. — A woman and four young children died early Saturday in a fire that engulfed a home about 30 miles southwest of Atlanta.
Authorities were alerted to the fire at the single-story home in Newnan at 1:17 a.m. Saturday, said Glenn Allen, spokesman for state Insurance Commissioner Ralph Hudgens. He said the fire was ruled accidental and appeared to have originated in an electrical panel.
Allen said the fire killed Alonna T. McCrary, 27, as well as her 5-year-old daughter Eriel McCrary and 2-year-old daughter Nikia White. Two other children — Messiah White, 3, and McKenzie Florence, 2 — also died. Allen said the two were sleeping over at the home.
A fifth child, 11-year-old Nautica McCrary, escaped the burning home and was taken to a hospital to be treated for smoke inhalation. Newnan police Chief Buster Meadows said the older girl's mother was able to get her safely out of the house but died trying to save the remaining children.
"The mother woke her up and told her to run," Meadows said. "There was someone outside who she ran to, and the mother went back after the others. Neither her nor the other four children made it out."
By the time firefighters arrived, Meadows said, the house was completely engulfed in flames.
"It's just a tragedy that's affected that whole neighborhood over there," the police chief said. "And it's affected the police and fire personnel also."
Allen said firefighters found remains of a smoke detector inside the home.

I wish to address a recent Readers' Hotline comment regarding The Oracle Institute's last class: "Introduction to Islam."
The caller was concerned that a class on history of the Muslim faith and the Prophet Muhammad might in some way "mix the minds of our young people or anybody else." Sadly, this is not the first time Oracle has encountered such a limited and bigoted mindset.

Sketchup Resources
With more than 30 million new users in just the past year, SketchUp continues to call on the expertise of longtime Truckee architect Nick Sonder. Google featured Sonder's work using SketchUp at the American Institute of Architect's annual convention last May, and just last week he was one of two power users invited to present at the SketchUp 3D Basecamp "Unconference" in Boulder, Colo. Sonder demonstrated his process of utilizing SketchUp to produce complete design and construction documents without any use of AutoCAD to Basecamp attendees from around the world.
SketchUp is one of the most popular 3D modeling tools in the world, with users ranging from architects to engineering and construction firms to building and design professionals. Trimble acquired SketchUp from Google in June of this year. Trimble, best known for GPS technology, plans to continue to offer SketchUp as a free version and to develop more applications and plug-ins for use with the software. Trimble's video recording of Sonder's presentation will be available for viewing soon on YouTube.
Sonder's interview, which includes footage of Truckee contractors and designers, features Sonder discussing the usability and advantages of SketchUp. The video received more than 129,000 views since it was posted by SketchUp three months ago - A second interview is scheduled.
Sonder has continued to monitor comments and questions from viewers, offering advice and even SketchUp support contact information.
Sonder's approach is unique because he uses SketchUp for the full production of design and construction documents. Because the three-dimensional views show more details than traditional plans, Sonder is able to save clients time and money because contractors and clients have more information to finalize decisions before starting construction. Said Sonder, "With Sketchup, you can actually see and walk through the home you're designing."
Sonder has been designing homes and buildings in the Truckee-Tahoe area since 1995, including LEED-certified homes. His portfolio mainly consists of custom homes in the Martis Camp, Northstar, Lake Tahoe, Lahontan, and Gray's Crossing areas. Publicly funded projects include the Glenshire fire station.

daviss: Labrenda and /or labgarrett welcome
labgarrett: Thank you.
daviss: No real format we are actually pretty easy going how is your research going? I research Harrison and Grimes County Texas mainly
labgarrett: Well, I have spent several decades collecting and privately publishing research on three of my luines, but just started pursuing agenealogical education at the beginning of 2011. I would do many things differently now.
daviss: surnames Taylor, Daviss, Ware, Burks, Spann to name a few Ahhhh very good!! It sounds like you have a good handle on things What Surnames and from where labgarrett?
labgarrett: distant cousins are also involved and they have each come up with new avenues to explore. I am about to retire form the practice of law in 2 months and am trying to immerse myself in all things relating to African American Genealogy; i was actually somewhat involved in the old AOL forum and afrigeneas early on.
alt: hello daviss, glad to see you back in the chat room
daviss: Hello alt
alt: Hi labgarrett, how ya doing?
labgarrett: Garrett, Neely, and Sullivans out of Laurens, South Caorlina, but also descendants of Dublin Hunter. Hello alt.
daviss: Thx alt, for some reason Java interferred and crashed vkn hopefully will be here soon and I am sure you are familar with her
Selma: Afternoon alt, daviss and labgarrett
alt: Hello Selma, how goes it?
daviss: Hi Selma, who's it going
labgarrett: Hello Selma
daviss: I was a baby back in the old aol days but I heard good things lol
alt: labgarrett, welocme to the wacky world of genealogy (on a full time basis) LOL
Selma: Listen to you daviss..you were a baby...
daviss: :o
Selma: The Pollen is killing here today...everything is YELLOW
daviss: Oh my Selma, stay indoors
Selma: Glad to hear about your retirement labgarrett..now you have plenty of time to devote to research
labgarrett: And classes. I just spent 4 sessions with Char McCargo two weeks ago at the Faierfax Genealogy Society annual meeting; learned alot!
daviss: How far have you gone so far on your lines labgarrett?
Seventies: good morning all
Selma: Afternoon seventies
Seventies: rather, afternoon. How is everyone today? All well I hope.
daviss: hello seventies
Seventies: Hello alt, daviss, labgarrett Welcome!, Selma and yatah
yatah: hello
Selma: Afternoon yatah
labgarrett: We believe that Garretts are descended from Dublin Hunter whose year of birth is given as 1785 in a deed of manumission. After taking so many classes I now understand that I have not necessarily met the generoloicgal proof standard, but I have not disproved anything either>
daviss: I bet those were some good sessions labgarrett. She knows her stuff for sure
alt: labgarrett, there is a person that visits the chat on occasion that is researching Laurens SC .. I belive they are researching the surname HARVARD.
daviss: hi there yatah!
Selma: What year was he manumitted labgarrett2013-04-16 12:17:58 [Message] Seventies -> *LunchBunch: labgarrett, are you resarching HARVARDS in Mississippi??
labgarrett: That's good to know. I was born there and plan to go back and forth after this June. Dublin was freed in 1819 or thereabouts.
Selma: Was he the only one manumitted from that estate or were there others
labgarrett: Seventies, no my research has centered on Laurens SC, or at least beginning there.
Seventies: Ok
alt: Char is an excellent presenter and does a great job in 'teaching" genealogical techniques.
Selma: There will be a 3 day institute on African American Research in July in St. Louis labgarrett
alt: Hello Seventies & yatah
labgarrett: Char certainly talked about things that I have not done, like researching all of a slave owner's friends and associates, assuming you find the slave owner Selma what organization is sponsoring the AA institute in July?
Selma: Alt..find her the link..you are better than I
daviss: http://www.maagi-stl.org/ there you are
Selma: Thank you daviss.. LOL
daviss: YW
alt: labgarrett, Yes ... Char & her "partner in crime" Deborah Abbott preach the gospel of cluster/comunity research.... you have to know the 'neigborhood' to get the real deal on your ancestors LOL
labgarrett: Thanks.
Selma: When Dublin is manumitted does he stay in the same area labgarrett?
labgarrett: Yes Dublin stays put up until the 1850 census for Laurens County SC and then he drops off the face of the earth except for namesakes found in Garrett and Hunter households.
Selma: Are these Garret and Hunters also "free" labgarrett?
labgarrett: No, we have "lore" that he bought his girl children (and indeed rthere is a sale bill showing the purchase of two little girls with their mother) but that his girls were "unbought" according to a 1919 bio of another descendant. I believe I am descended form one of those two girls.
alt: just read back ... Wow!! your Dublin HUnter was freed ca 1819 in SC....Are they on the 1830 FPOC Census of Carter Woodson ... as FPOC and/or possibly FPOC's who owned Slaves?
Seventies: Ok so can I make a few suggestions You will definitely want to research the family of the man who manumitted Dublin AND the person, most likely a male who was the executor of the estate of Dublin's slave holder.
Selma: What do you mean by "unbought"
Seventies: If Dublin was freed at the time of the death of the slaveholder. Also do the genealogy the family of the slaveholder as well.
labgarrett: One of my cousins recently found a reference to court case where a slave owner's children were fighting over his estate and a slave named Sally is named as the motther of 5 children, including the two that appear with Sally on a sale bill to Dublin in about 1823. A woman named Sally also appears in the 1850 Dublin household.
alt: ah so, you have a great 'foundation' labgarrett.
labgarrett: I used "unbought" because that is how my distanty cousin described the situation in a biographical note that was published in 1919; I understand it to mean they were lost to creditors because Dublin would not have been able to free them at that time in SC history and they would have been subject to liens. I do have a great foundation, mainly because I had two family historians before me going back to a 1933 reunion and I have spent many years just collecting information even if I was not doing it the genealoguical way. Seventies, Dublin actually purchased his freedom for $1,200.
Seventies: ok... interesting.
Selma: Ok..I was wondering..in Virginia there are a number of AA listed as slave owners, who purchased their children and wives but did not free, because they would have had to leave the state
labgarrett: And the woman we believe was his wife, Sally, was owned by someone else. Dublin bought her and 2 of her daughters out of an estate.
Selma: What was his occupation labgarrett?
labgarrett: The census records say "mechanic," and I know that could mean a lot of different things.
alt: and it sounds as if he ran into the problem of not being able to free his own family for fear of "Black codes" and possibly losing them, or them having to leave SC.
labgarrett: alt, I believe that is correct, SC kwpt changing the law regarding freeing slaves.
Selma: Did he own land property
labgarrett: One of the records indicates that he owned property value at $50 but I have not found land records. I do plan to spend more time in the court house after retirement.
Selma: Look for personal property tax records
alt: speaking of property ..... y'all might want to take a look at the agricultural schedules from 1850-1880 for ancestors that may have been "farmers".
labgarrett: At this point I am trying to connect my Garrett great-great-grandfather born in 1837, who I believe is Dublin's grandson, back to Dublin
alt: I recently (yesterday) found ancestors in the 1870 schedules and there is some great information contained in those records.
labgarrett: Selma, good idea; I have not done that or even figure=d out where they are yet
Selma: Probably in court house..or check and see what records FHC might have on microfilm.. or state archives
labgarrett: That's the other thing I have yet to do, go to the SC state archives in person but I have found useful information among the materials they have put on line.
alt: where are you physically located labgarrett, near SC?????
labgarrett: No, in DC but we have a house down there and I plan to go back and forth.
alt: ah so, okay..... that helps, being able to go to the actual location where the records may be located.
labgarrett: What about all of you, your locations?
alt: I'm in Ohio
Selma: Is there a genealogical society in that county?
labgarrett: Yes, alt, now I just squeeze time in when we are down for holidays.
Selma: What happened to daviss?
alt: OOps, hope she isn't having Java problems...... again
labgarrett: I have written to them (last year) because one of our earlier family historians had a letter saying that Dublin was our Garrett ancestor, but the letter provides no analysis. I have yet to recieve a reply. daviss dropped off a little whiel ago.
Seventies: ok brb in a deep convo with a distant cousin..
labgarrett: There is an African American Historical society in Laurens but it seems to be inactive these days.
alt: AA gen societies seem to 'ebb & flow", hopefully you can catch them on the upswing labgarrett
labgarrett: I have been asking after the woman who had it going about ten years ago but I guess I should try harder; I know she is still around but you never know what is going on in sopmeone's personal life that may explain why they have dropped out
alt: that is so very true labgarrett.
labgarrett: The thing that I took away from Char's talk is that I need to be diligent and persistent in my search.
alt: again, very true & "patient" LOL
Selma: Yes patient...
labgarrett: What names are all of you researching?
alt: my primary names are Adams, Bridges, Lawrence & Thomas ffrom VA/KY/NC & OH. oops and Indiana
Seventies: Bye all see you tomorrow.
labgarrett: One practical thing I learned in Pro-Gen 13 which ended in January 2013, is about how use friendly the staff of the North Caorlina Archives is. I obtianed a will naming a friend's ancestor after being told that fact and blind emailing a person I thought might help. Have you deaqlt with them alt?
alt: darn, I had some good stuff to share with Seventies on the agri schedules since her folks were farmers in alabama
labgarrett: What time do we usually end?
Selma: Folks..I have to run, just had company drop by. Good to see you labgarrett..come back
alt: around 1:00 PM or shortly thereafter
labgarrett: I will. tomorrow I have a lunch but look for me soon! R=Thanks everyone.
alt: we have a chatter that works at the NC State Library & Archives labgarrett
daviss: sorry folks missed most of the convo I guess everyone left
alt: still here
daviss: ahhhh ok alt, sorry I missed the conversation I think labgarrett is gone now but forgot to log off
alt: yes
daviss: ok well I guess we can turn out the lights then Oh alt did you see who we picked up in the womens draft...The Number 1 pick who is supposedly the best ever size 17 shoe.....whew!

Chantilly, Va.-based BlueScout Technologies (formerly Catch the Wind), a provider of predictive optical control systems for the wind energy industry, has announced that it has filed a voluntary petition under Chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
Earlier this month, the company warned that its viability and ability to continue operating was dependent on securing additional capital. The company had been actively seeking to raise additional capital through debt, equity or other capital-raising efforts while also considering other strategic alternatives. However, BlueScout says it was unsuccessful in raising such additional capital or completing a strategic transaction, in large part due to ongoing legal matters.
Even though BlueScout has not paid out any damages relative to legal disputes, the increasing cost of defending against multiple legal actions by Philip Rogers and Alisa Rogers – the former founders of the company and their related entities, Optical Air Data Systems LLC and Falcon Fifty LLC – has severely impacted the company's cashflow and operations.
Accordingly, after multiple reviews of the various alternatives available to BlueScout, the board of directors concluded that voluntarily entering the Chapter 7 process would be the best available option to the company and its stakeholders. The bankruptcy filing was made in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.
BlueScout has also announced that Susan Nickey, Martin Crotty and David Garman have resigned as directors of the company, and that John Green has resigned as chief financial officer.
