and had been lighting up his social media with his acclaims for the
record...not knowing, of course, that he and we would find out only a
couple of days later that there would never be another new record from
I personally asked Norman, based on what he had said
about the record prior to David's death, to please write his feelings
out about the LP and let us post it here. He has done so.

Read reviews from past Contiki travelers.
I took this trip back in June 2013 but just now I'm getting around to writing a review. I had an absolute blast on this trip. The lodging in Split was OK but it wasn't expensive so I was perfectly content with it. The trip itself is amazing because Emma our tour guide was always organized and updating us on info for the day... aka tour options, dinner plans, best photo ops of the stop, etc... There were plenty of people to party with or lay low- something for everyone.
This contiki tour was absolutely amazing.
The food, the skiing, the accommodation and the whole atmosphere of the trip was incredible. I experienced some crazy things like paragliding, bob sledding on an olympic track and tobogganing. The night times were so much fun, just chilling at the contiki palace or going to ambiente.
The best part of the trip for me was getting to know not only the people on the tour with me but getting to know the staff. Every single one of the team members were such great people. In particular Minni, she is one of the most lovely people i've ever met. She was wlling to help whenever we needed it. She was always having fun with us and truly went above and beyond her job description, making my trip that much more enjoyable.
This trip was an amazing experience and i definitely recommend it, you wont regret it.
Mexico was so much better than I even imagined. I felt safe the entire time and we stayed in really nice hotels. The food was different to westernised Mexican food but still good! The atmosphere in Cancun is crazy, I've never been anywhere like it. I enjoyed everyday in Mexico with a great combination of culture and night life. Also it was SO cheap (except for Cancun) for food and drinks. Highly recommend doing this tour :D
Such an intense crazy and wild experience.
If you are not a party person this is not your kind of tour. You will just be a party pooper and a total down buzz for everyone else.
I had a great bunch of people who all got along with each other. No douche bags causing trouble. It was easy to get along with everyone even tho I was the only Kiwi with a bunch of Aussies on board lol. I have made so many friends and I still keep in touch on facebook.
Every night besides the nights at the Grand Canyon was a party night. Everyone got together to start the nights with drinking games and for good banter.
Every morning we all had great stories about the the ruthless nights we had.
Activities were great fun. No activity we did was bad or boring.
Our Tour manager Ryan Fockler was great. He made things easy. He was well organised. He really knew his stuff. He taught me a lot about western side of America. He wasn't boring and he was extremely helpful.
Bus driver Adrian was the man. He always got us to our destinations safely and always got us to or destinations early. He was great to party with too.
Overall this tour was a trip of a life time.
Recommend to everyone who loves to party.
Wow! This trip has EVERYTHING! Adventure, relaxation, partying, sights...everything! The perfect getaway that gives you MORE! Cassie was our TM and she was AMAZING! She literally knew anything and everything we threw her way and showed us an amazing time!
Koh phi phi was by farrr the favorite island! Our hotel was right on the beach and the beach parties were insane! (So many beautiful people!)
Contiki offered safety and knowledge...which made us feel confident on our free days to roam about and explore!
Must sees:
James Bond island
Elephant ride
Big Buddha
Zip lining (if you have an extra free day in Phucket)
Seriously the most well rounded tour! You have time to do everything you want and still be able to chill out and relax on the beach or by the pool! The accommodation is amazing! You MUST check this tour out!
This was my 2nd Contiki...and I will be back for a 3rd! Never disappoints!
I went on this trip by myself and before I had even got to LA I was already speaking with 15+ people who were also doing this trip. We had such a great group of people who all got along and it was our tour managers first trip by himself taking a group. There were big days and long nights out partying and sightseeing of course, but it evens itself out when you have long bus days so you can sleep it off! Never say no to anything because you will regret it. Met so many awesome people, and keep in contact with alot and planning future holidays together even. This really was a trip of a lifetime, there is so much to see and do in America, and travelling solo via Contiki is the best way. Hopefully one day I will do the Grand Northern and have the same experience. 26 days is the perfect amount of time. Don't think about it for too long, this is something you wont' regret!
Highly recommend this tour to anyone out there looking to getaway to somewhere warm and beautiful. The sights are stunning and list of activities to do are endless. My favourite part was probably making friends with the contiki group from all around the world!
Australia was never really on my bucket list, I simply wanted to go somewhere different and the timing worked out for me. This was an unexpected adventure of a life time. This is my no.2 favorite contiki tour yet. worth every penny. If you love outdoor sports, Australia is just the spot for you. Every city brought a new and different treat. I got to bungy jump, sky dive, sail, snorkel, surf, camp (first and last time hehehe), pet a koala, hang a python around my body, hang with kangaroos and also ate quite a bit of their succulent meat. I probably would never travel to Australia again, but I made sure I enjoyed a lot of what it had to offer. A tip for those going to the northern territory, take a bug repellent for your body! I also purchased a face net that made my life much easier...bugs everywhere! lol. But that definitely added to the experience. I took a separate trip to Melbourne to enjoy yarra valley wine and try out their popular food culture...loved it!
oh yeah, Australia is insanely expensive. I had a water bottle which I refilled at every hotel we went to...that helped a lot instead of spending $5 on water, ridiculous.
Courtney is the best tour manager EVER and you seriously have to do this tour. it was the best time of my life by far!
This tour had AMAZING potential. the cities were beautiful and the other members of the tour were really what saved it. Our tour manager was literally the worst I had ever heard of, and I sincerely hope he no longer works for Contiki. I was on this tour from July 21 to August 4 2013, and it was the last part of my 10 week holiday. I had previously been on two other Contikis, which were 10/10 amazing, so ending my trip with this complete dud of a tour was even more disappointing after having such great experiences in the past. Our tour manager, Emmo, was better suited for tour groups aged 65+. He completely discouraged any sort of fun-having, right down to refusing to let us have a Day Song. If you have been on a contiki before, you know that a Day Song is what is played in the coach every morning, plays at the bars you go to, and is overall just the "theme song" of the tour. Having done two contikis before, my self and the girl i was travelling with already had ideas of what we could suggest to be our day song. after sitting through a 2 hour (literally two hours, could have even been more) lecture that was 100% unnecessary, we boarded the coach, only to be shouted at for the slightest muttering about a day song. Our fun-sucking tour manager would not allow a day song and refused any of our protests, as though he wasn't the one we were paying to show us a good time. after two days of arguing with him, we finally got our song. after that, each day was filled with Emmo lecturing us for entire 9 hour drives, not letting us sleep on the coach as we had wanted, him leaving us in a random spanish town, giving us nothing but shotty directions on how to WALK back to the hotel. now this was the real kicker, because my previous tour managers had never left us to our own devices, as they were the ones who were supposed to be the experts. we all ended up getting lost for 2 hours walking around, terrified, constantly asking locals for directions. we were all so upset and scared and it honestly ruined the tour for us. in summary, i would recommend this tour only if Emmo is no longer the tour manager, for that matter, i would recommend not doing any tour that he is working on, if he still works for Contiki.
I had hands down the greatest time in Australia. From the gorgeous views to the tasty food! I took advantage of sky diving in Cairns and it was the best thing I've ever done, I recommend everyone do it even if you're scared. Everyone on the tour got along so there was always someone to hang out with. I'll never forget laying out under the stars on the farm stay. It was breath-taking! I only wish we were able to spend more time in Byron bay... and that the trip was longer! There was nothing on the trip that I didn't love!
Wow. I've been back from my trip for a few months now and I'm still in awe of all that I've seen and experienced. This trip is non-stop with each city showing a change in culture and different experiences. So many amazing things happened on this trip! To name a few: elephant ride, Thai cooking class, Thai boxing, blessing by a Buddhist monk, visits to countless and unique temples (including sunrise at Angkor Wat!), river boat rides, city bike ride, visits to the hill tribes and floating villages and jumping into a waterfall! This trip really shows you how happy people can be with so little and after suffering so much in past wars (the people of Laos especially being the happiest people I've ever met!) I feel so blessed to have met the people I did (both locals and my tour mates!) and have come back with a new outlook on life! I felt safe everywhere we went and with our amazing guide James, everything was taken care of. An incredible way to see everything you could possible want to in these 3 countries, with no hassle. Would highly recommend. This trip definitely makes you richer :)
This trip was absolutely amazing, would recommend to anyone wanting too see what's out there. :) Great bunch of people.
This was my first Contiki trip, went alone not knowing what to expect, and it turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life! Met a lot of wonderful friends, our tour guide was helpful and entertaining. The tour was long enough where I didn't feel rushed from place to place, but short enough where I didn't feel homesick. It's a great taste of Italy, just enough of an intro to make you want to come back to your favorite cities. Definitely recommend Italian Espresso!
Overall the tour was good. We saw many sites and had fun doing it. The biggest problem encountered was the flights booked by Contiki. The airline booked our flight on a Wednesday morning from Buenos Aires to Iguassu Falls instead of Tuesday morning when it was supposed to be. Contiki should have confirmed the correct departure date and time well enough in advance to avoid this situation. As a result we had to change our departure flight from Iguassu Falls to Rio de Janeiro. That flight had to be changed to the following morning due to technical problems with the jet. It is not Contiki's fault for the technical airline problems but if Contiki had us on the proper flight the first time, we would not of encountered the delay in our flight from Iguassu to Rio. This resulted in condensed time in both Buzios and Rio de Janeiro. The tour manager did her best under the circumstances and did well to ensure we did everything we planned on doing during the tour however we were very rushed in Brazil with no downtime. I only hope that Contiki has learned from this mistake and doesn't let it happen again.
Great way to see the East Coast of America should your travelling time be limited. Met some amazing people. The pace was varied through out - Party nights in Miami, touring Washington and arriving in New York.
I took my husband for his 30th birthday and we had a blast! All of the people in our tour group were friendly and all about having fun. Mike was our tour guide and did a great job of answering any questions we had. Overall I was very satisfied!
I went on this tour a few years ago in 2011 and I have just booked another Contiki because I had so much fun on the last one. My tour guide was Cam and he was a very knowledgeable guide but was also very relaxed which made for a really fun 2 weeks!
I met up with some fellow Contiki crew the day before the tour started at the hotel, which was a nice welcome to the hustle and bustle of Bangkok. Bangkok was certainly an experience, although I was very glad to make our way north on the overnight train to Chiang Mai in the country. The train was a very different experience but loved it, I did feel sorry for the 2 monks we had in our carriage though.This felt like the real Thailand! I loved the Thai cooking class, and making big flames with my cooking! The Tigers were absolutely amazing, scary at first until I gave him a big belly rub.
The Long neck people in Chaing Rai was very eye opening as I had never seen anything like this before, and they were so friendly. We had a nurse on our trip which was helpful to the locals who had a sick little boy at the time.
The boat was a nice relaxing time, being able to chill out was just what we needed to prepare ourselves for the next week, a great time to read a book!
Pakbeng was a really cute little place, and glad we got to stop by there.The accommodation was nice, as Cam said about the bathroom "you can sit on the toilet, have a shower and brush your teeth at the same time" that's how small it was :)
Luang Prabeng was great fun, the elephants, the water falls, and a night out a Utopia! Riding bikes around the town was super fun with our local guide Tooey! I did miss out on the giving of the alms which is the only thing I regret about the trip ( I turned my alarm off in my sleep ) So make sure you go to bed at a reasonable time for this activity! Once again the accommodation was nice, and they even have a laundry service so take advantage of this!
The bus trip to Vang Vieng was a very long and adventurous journey. It was supposed to take 8 hours it took almost 13!!! These roads were very very very rough due to the wet season and landslides etc. So be patient and remember its about the journey not the destination. We had a lot of fun singing to old classics and taking in all the local village life. We came to a section of the road that was literally a river! we had to stop and take our bags out of the bottom of the bus and put them into the bus as the water was going to go through the baggage area, it was an unexpected event but gave us a real insight into how the Laoation people live. The locals took the flooding as a chance to go fishing, drink beer and laugh at the tourists is the bus!!
After a very long day we arrived in Vang Vieng, this place is amazing! the accommodation is set right on the river amongst some beautiful mountains.
One thing you must do is Vang Vieng is to split up into some smaller groups and go on a local tour. It cost about $15 AUD, but worth every cent. They picked us up from the hotel and took us to a local street and talked all about their way of life, cost of building a house etc. They then took us into some caves and into a water cave on tubes that attached to a rope with headlamps on, meanwhile it was pouring rain, so don't wear anything you care about, buy a Lao Lao singlet or something! I also recommend taking some sandals such as Teva, that way you can wear them in the water without them coming off. Thongs were kind of impractical at times. The we had lunch in a hut by the river which was delicious! Our guides took all of our bags and followed us down the river tubing, making sure we were all ok. I know this part of the trip has been taken off the itinerary, which is unfortunate but I can understand. I am certainly glad I had a local guide with me when we did this for extra safety.
Vientianne was nice, I think we were only there for a night so I don't recall anything too crazy! We did go to a restaurant that had amazing local food that supported a charity.
We flew from Vientianne to Pnohm Penh which was a nice change to a long bus trip. Pnohm Penh was crazy! We hadn't even pulled up to our hotel and young locals were selling us thing through he windows, such as books and sunglasses. This is great if you want some bargains, but be careful, they wont leave you alone!! The tour to the Genocide museum was sad, but its great to have a real insight into their history.
From Phnom Penh to Siem Reap was also by plane! They save the best till last, I LOVED Siem Reap, the accommodation was just beautiful!! Visiting the floating villlages was unique, great photo opportunity here. Siem Reap had some nice shopping and cafes, I even bought and ipad there! I was envious of everyone else with one which made swapping photos with each other a lot easier. So having a computer or some spare USBs is handy at this point as the trip is about to end. Angkor Wat was just crazy!! Especially drinking champagne watching the sunrise up over the landmark. It made getting up early that little bit more interesting!
The last night in Siem Reap will be the best yet as you have made some really great friends. Believe it or not you only met them 1 days ago and you wont want to leave them :(
I went on this tour on my own and don't regret that at all. I am still in touch with some of the girls and guys 3 years on, and plan more trips together as they are all like minded people. That's why your on this trip right?! To meet people from the other side of the world, gain more contacts for your next adventure, visit them in their country!
All in all this was a life changing trip as I am still talking about this trip, it gave me such an unforgettable cultural experience and I still use the Language I learned on the trip on Thai restaurants here is AUS. I recommend using their language as much as possible, just to see the smile on their faces!
I'm sorry for the long review, once I got started i just couldn't stop, so I hope this was helpful - things may have changed from my trip to your trip though.
My next tour is the Thai Island hopper East in April!!
The tour manger and the coach driver were real real good. I could not ask anyone else to guide me like them. The group was best of all and i had a great time with them. The extra actives were fun and the night life were really good and all the fun we had.

From my journal: I am romanced by a comment attributed to Henri Matisse. "Artists," he said, "should have their tongues cut out." What could he mean? Perhaps he felt that the artist's message was to be communicated only by paint on canvas. Or perhaps he worried that artists were spending too much time explaining their work and that they should let the painting speak for itself. Maybe Matisse simply thought artists were blabbing too much in Parisian coffee-houses and that anything but painting was a misuse of time. Then again, Matisse may have been saying something else I'm not smart enough to discern.
Might we Christians consider Matisse's advice—that is, having our tongues cut out? While I can think of certain of my preaching friends who would die at this thought (my treasured friend, Tony Campolo, comes to mind, he thought smiling), there is a sublime merit to the idea.
The modern Christianity I know is far too wordy. We talk about what we should do and lash ourselves for what we're not doing. We talk about what we are doing and why we're doing it (or why we think we're doing it). And then, when it's all over, we talk about what we did and what significance we think it had. Oh, and we talk an awful lot about what the "the world" is or shouldn't be doing. I fear that I am a major donor to this palaver. These paragraphs may be exhibit A.
Much of this talking, I fear, seems to be bent on convincing ourselves that we (or our organizations) are significant or that what we are doing deserves other people's praise or, alternatively, their financial gifts. As I said, some of our talk seems targeted on those who have pursued other ways than ours. If we can highlight how bad, how different, how misguided they are, then we can justify why it is that we are doing what we're doing. And that makes us feel better.
Going over old journals, I am struck with my own wordiness. Many things about which I was formerly passionate are meaningless today. And some things on which I stood silent now stand out as life-altering (for myself or others). How many billions of words have I spoken which were pointless, inaccurate, unwise, hurting to others, slanderous, or pompous.
Matisse, where were you when I needed you?
Many quote St. Francis as saying something like, "Preach all you can, and, if necessary, use words." Whether or not it was Francis's idea, the thought has weight, and it causes me to recall a poem written by Elizabeth Patton Moss:
St. Francis came to preach. With smiles he met
The friendless, fed the poor, freed a trapped bird,
Led home a child. Although he spoke no word,
His text, God's love, the town did not forget.
I have much more to say on this topic, but Matisse just got to me.
Notes from England: I listened to Bill Hybels talk to 2,500 or more UK pastors and church leaders about the power of the church to amend society, and I marveled. Forty years ago the church would have been a laughingstock to most serious thinking people. The parachurch organizations once called themselves an arm of the church (implying that they were doing what the church could not or would not do), and they did (and do) a great job of keeping priorities before us. But now Bill and Rick Warren and others have woven together modern tools and ideas (vision casting, sensible organizational management, fresh thoughts such as seeker sensitivity and purpose driven come to mind) and inspired us all with a new sense of the church's place in the world. All over the place men and women are planting churches, reviving old ones. It's a great, great day. Who could have predicted Summit Conferences on Leadership, Forty Days of Purpose programs, Alpha, and the house church movement?

The lights are on
Veteran Member - Level 13
We all know the basic story of the Assassin's Creed series: the seemingly never-ending conflict between the Assassins and the Templars for control of the world through some kind of metaphysical means, a motive I'm sure is as wholesome as Apple pie. Ezio Auditore is a man driven by what the Templars did to his family, and then by what he now knows they are doing to the world. He has spent his entire life fighting against their evil.
I think we all feel it sometimes: your friends are talking about something that they really enjoy, and you have no idea what it is. Or you know what it is, but you haven't experienced it or followed it, and so you can't join the conversation.
With all of the controversy regarding violence in video games, and whether or not the California law regarding the sale of violent video games to minors should be outlawed, another serious video game problem is flying under the radar.
We all know that this Fall has some awesome games coming out, if they haven't already. Everybody's anticipating the likes of Skyrim, already enjoying the hell out of Arkham City, or Battlefield 3, or Gears of War 3.
I wasn't going to be taking part in BlackHeartedWolf's Writer's Guild Weekly Challenge, mainly due to time constraints. However, he put a little poison pill in the very first challenge, one that's guaranteed to attract almost any writer: a chance to write about themselves. How devilish! How evil! How...effective.
One of the most common complaints I've heard about the PS3 is the seemingly constant need for system updates These updates are big and can sometimes take a bit of time to download and install.
I really hate this question.
This isn't a game-related post, but it alludes to a partial explanation of why I haven't been blogging here in the last couple of weeks (though there are other things going on as well). Also, I know some of the bloggers here have gone through some tough times, or know people who have gone though them, so I thought it might be relevant to at least some of you. In that sense, maybe it can be considered a GIO blog, even if it's not games-related.
Everybody is aware of all the so-called "big name" games that are coming out this fall. Gamers across the country and the world are saving their pennies, making harsh decisions on which anxiously-awaited game(s) will have to wait and perhaps be bought at a later date. The war between Battlefield fans and CoD fans will continue unabated.
I just did a post on my personal blog about commenting on blog posts, especially site that moderate comments to avoid controversy (or whatever other reason they offer).
I admit it. I've been defeated. I'm out of gas, patience, and my thumb hurts. Other games are calling my name, wondering why I haven't started playing them instead of bashing my head against the wall until it's a bloody pulp.

"The drive to parenthood by infertile couples has elevated techniques of 'artificial' human reproduction from science fiction to clinical realities," says Jerome K. Sherman, MD, president of the Reproductive Council of the American Association of Tissue Banks. "These realities are limited only by human imagination."
They are also limited by various medical, ethical, psychological, and social concerns. Most of these were debated at a recent meeting of the American Fertility Society in Chicago. In particular, panelists discussed the pros and cons of artificial insemination and cryobanking, stressing concerns about anonymity, eugenics, and psychological trauma to all parties.
According to Sherman, who is also professor of anatomy, University of Arkansas Medical Center, Little Rock, infertility affects one in six American couples of reproductive age, and there are predicted increases. Options for these couples include artificial insemination with sperm donated by the husband or by another donor, in vitro fertilization, embryo transplantation,

Comfort food is portioned for communal eating
CONSUMER INSIGHT - Implications - Traditional comfort foods, such as pasta, are being reformatted for collective consumption. Foods that are portioned for easier sharing are popular among consumers, as it not only enhances the dining experience, but also allows them to try several dishes in one sitting. When applied to more traditional cuisines, this communal approach to eating encourages family bonding in a way that is both novel and experiential. [More]

Look towards the end of July , as it truly goes down…
Irv and the duders have a local video coming out tomorrow.
It's been in the works for years , so all of them are stoked.

Yuh has been a inspiration to me for 20 years.
Seeing him approach skateboarding , is really refreshing.
I can't wait to see him a month, but for now,

He even has it on 22's…
After a great weekend of contests, We went surfing for a hour…
To top off my weekend jammed packed, Zach Westcott made sometime to put
a solid tattoo on me at HERO before I went back and he moves to Boise , Idaho.
Thanks so much again duder…
I kept laughing at the Crossfit people stuck listening to our soundtrack
of Magic Camera and watching something they probably never would enjoy.
Keep going you wimps…
Shit goes by at a blink of a eye.
You can either complain about nothing to do, or just
fucking do everything you can in one weekend that would take people a week
or even longer.
I met some great folks on the trip, laughed a shit ton and watched
Magic Camera on the big screen.
I call that success.
Next big trip, JAPAN in a few weeks to visit Yuh
and do a premiere in Tokyo.

Jamie Heim shot all these photos and Thank you.
Thank You to all who support Lost Soul.
The shops, friends and family members.
Running a failing company is hard after 11 years.
If i thought of it in a business stance, I should have bagged it years ago.
But, You can't stop passion and dedication.
I love skateboarding.
That's all that anyone should say.

Irving was introduced to me years ago by Aaron Frobase in Myrtle beach , Sc.
Aaron had a small shop called Big Fish and was very involved with the skate scene there.
And still to this day, even though the shop closed it's doors, I decided to stay intouch
with Irv and watch him grow and get so much better at skating.
Irv has built a rad scene down there, hosts events, puts alot of work into
his skating and has done so for many years.
He has earned it in my book.
I am so proud to call him a friend.
I am even more proud to put his name on a board.

Ok, so I am not the best in keeping in touch with everybody. Family, Friends, Photographers, Producers and best of all...My Fans. I am soo excited about my 8th DVD release just in time for my web site roll out.
I have partnered with GameLink to provide a convenient way to find all of the DVDs. Some are available for VoD (Video on Demand) and even some for direct download.
I am also Starring in my own clips. Not the cheesy ones found on "clips for Sale" but professionally edited and produced. The first to be released is "Getting Rid of Bush" a short clip shot in close up in dark and seedy lighting, where I have my personal photographer not only film me, but shave the long, straight red hairs between my thighs. What a hoot! All with a Richard Pryor movie playing in the back ground. Trimmed it up, but didn't shave all of it off. Question now is should I keep it this way, or let it grow back!? Having a full, firey, red bush is a rare oddity in today's porn.
I am working on a new series called "Green with Envy". These are shot right here in my large production studio in downtown LA. Shot during the Bacchanal parties with friends around and some even participating. My 3 significant others, Todd, W and Annie, often appear somewhere in the series. (I love being a Bonobo!) the first preview of the series will post on Dr Susan Block's website soon. Well as soon as I finish editing it. I am also working on a new custom squirt DVD for my biggest fan in Australia.(Thanks Pete for the vote of confidence to get this started). Love the Aussie men,
Finally to all of my friends in LA and the OC. We are filming another Spring Equinox show with Dr Susan Block with a very big party afterwards. If you are interested in attending, Please contact my new Assistant Lindsey at 213-749-1330. I finally got a corporate tax Id number and a business license! I got into porn for the attention and the incredible sex, but who knew a year ago I would be living in Beverly Hills! I am still surprised that someone my age can make this kind of book in porn. For the people who felt the need to remind me "Your not all that", here's to you....My 8th DVD rolled out and I am awaiting the release of "Games Women Play" by Playboy New Media and another, yet untitled by Hustler Milf video! Success is the best form of revenge.
Check out the web site, find the 'just ask' button in the about me section and let me know what you think of the site, what you would like to see, and if you have seen any of my movies. I can also be found on Yahoo messenger as Tai_ellis. I am always online it seems now, or at least in front of my computer if I am not shooting.

National Resilience and a Poetry Reading for Rosh Hashanah
Dr. Moshe Itzhaki, an old friend, is a soft-spoken former kibbutznik, a farmer and paratrooper who began his university studies in his thirties and is today a respected professor of Hebrew literature. Moisheleh, as he is universally known, is also a poet who makes the Hebrew language sing—lyrically, boisterously, with a delicious earthy complexity that draws its wisdom from sources as diverse as the Talmud, advertising, English newscasts, and century-old poems.
On Friday I joined a former AJC colleague, Varda Rafaeli, and drove north to the town of Tivon for a public reading in honor of the publication of Moisheleh's new book of poems,
Rivers Raised Their Voices
. Fifty people crowded into the basement of a community center that was big enough for twenty-five, to sit on plastic chairs and hear Moisheleh's poetry read and presented in different creative ways. A musician set several of the poems to music. A painter explained how one poem inspired the painting that graces the book's cover. A professor of Hebrew literature gave a talk on Moisheleh's oeuvre. A private publisher analyzed the layers of meaning in several of the poems. Finally, Itzhaki rose to thank the speakers. "I learned new things about my poems that I had not known," he said in his characteristically self-effacing way.
Tivon is squarely in the range of the Hezbollah missiles stockpiled in Lebanon. Whether because of a certain poem, or because of the location, I found myself trying to understand the significance of holding such an assembly in the shadow of the enemy threat. I came to see the fifty friends gathered to hear poetry as a strategic asset, one rarely considered when outsiders speak about this region.
What I saw was resilience. This inadequate term is borrowed from the physical sciences, where it denotes the ability of a material to resume its original shape after being bent, compressed or stretched, to "bounce back." Resilience is reflected in the values that sent volunteers (including AJC personnel) into the combat zone during the 2006 Second Lebanon War and then during the recent Cast Lead in Gaza, to help the local population with supplies and moral support.
There is a connection between the desire to drive a hundred kilometers to hear poetry and the courage to withstand missile bombardment, terror attacks, and wild bigotry. In the shadow of war, in the midst of the controversies over how to end the occupation, Israel remains far greater than the sum of its conflicts. Scratch the media-clouded surface of this culture and you discover a rich and textured melting pot of experiences, a well of beauty, ingenuity, and self-sacrifice.
The world offers several models of societies that flourish against the odds.
One, modern Europe, is organized for permanent peace. A European diplomat proudly—and accurately—described the EU to me as an unending "peace process, where war between the member states becomes unthinkable." Indeed, the achievement of the EU should inspire awe in any student of history. Yet one may fairly ask what the EU countries, with their minuscule defense budgets and admirably pacifist culture, would do if they faced a genuine external threat. Could they develop the military capability to respond, and would their societies bounce back resiliently in the aftermath?
At the other extreme lies North Korea, a society organized around the sole imperative of ideological war, a nation run as an ant colony, mobilized and starving.
Between the two poles of a potentially ill-prepared Europe and the world's most unfree system lies the Israeli model of managing conflict in a free society. Perhaps it deserves more serious consideration in an age of growing transnational threats and crises. At its heart is the principle that the Israelis do not depend on others to protect them. They carry the burden of their own defense and live with its scars. This past week we had a stark reminder of the cost, with the death in a training accident of Captain Asaf Ramon, a young air-force pilot, son of the late Colonel Ilan Ramon, hero of the bombing of the Osirak nuclear reactor in Iraq and victim of the Columbia shuttle disaster. In a display of the collective support that is one of Israel's strengths, the entire country participated in the grief of the family.
At the same time, Israelis have determined that conflict will not dehumanize them, and have largely succeeded in achieving that goal. Between the wars, Israelis have built a powerhouse country by almost every parameter. Part of the secret is that so many of them drive an hour to listen to poetry. Israel's enemies, from the pre-1948 Mufti of Jerusalem through to Yasser Arafat and Hassan Nasrallah (who famously called Israel "weaker than a spider's web"), have failed to eliminate the Jewish state because their own propaganda prevented them from reckoning with the resilience of the society they attacked.
A traditional wish for Rosh Hashanah asks that "the old year expire with its curses and the New Year arrive with its blessings." When we speak of those blessings we should consider Moisheleh and his fifty guests. May all those who must face our current threats continue to read poetry together!

The volume of a cube is equal to the measure of any one side to the power of three. This is written mathematically as \begin{align*}V=s^3.\end{align*} That means you can determine the measure of any one side of a cube having given volume \begin{align*}V,\end{align*} using \begin{align*}s=\sqrt[3]{V}.\end{align*} In this Concept, you'll explore the inverse relationship between roots and powers, and learn how to simplify radical expressions like this one so that you can write them in multiple ways.
Radicals are the roots of values. In fact, the word radical comes from the Latin word "radix," meaning "root." You are most comfortable with the square root symbol \begin{align*}\sqrt{x}\end{align*}; however, there are many more radical symbols.
A radical is a mathematical expression involving a root by means of a radical sign.
\begin{align*}\text{If }x^3 & = y, \text{ then }\sqrt[3]{y}=x\\ \text{If }x^4 & = y, \text{ then }\sqrt[4]{y}=x\\ \text{If }x^n & = y, \text{ then }\sqrt[n]{y}=x\\ &\text{Similarly: }\\ \sqrt[3]{27} & =3, \text{ because } 3^3=27\\ \sqrt[4]{16}& =2 \text{ because } 2^4=16\end{align*}
Some roots do not have real values; in this case, they are called undefined.
Even-numbered roots of negative numbers are an example, since any number multiplied by itself an even number of times will produce a negative answer:
\begin{align*}(-1)(-1) & = +1\\ (-1)(-1)(-1)(-1) & = +1\\ (-1)(-1)(-1)(-1)(-1)(-1) &= +1\\ (-1)(-1)(-1)(-1)(-1)(-1)(-1)(-1) &=+1\\ &\text{...and so on!} \end{align*}
This leads us to the general statement: "\begin{align*}\sqrt[n]{x}\end{align*} is undefined when \begin{align*}n\end{align*} is an even whole number and \begin{align*}x<0\end{align*}."
Example A
Evaluate the following radicals:
- \begin{align*}\sqrt[3]{64}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}\sqrt[4]{-81}\end{align*}
\begin{align*}\sqrt[3]{64} = 4\end{align*} because \begin{align*}4^3=64\end{align*}
\begin{align*}\sqrt[4]{-81}\end{align*} is undefined because \begin{align*}n\end{align*} is an even whole number and \begin{align*}-81<0\end{align*}.
You may recall how to evaluate rational exponents:
\begin{align*}a^{\frac{x}{y}} \ where \ x=power \ and \ y=root\end{align*}
This can be written in radical notation using the following property.
Rational Exponent Property: For integer values of \begin{align*}x\end{align*} and whole values of \begin{align*}y\end{align*}:
\begin{align*}a^{\frac{x}{y}}= \sqrt[y]{a^x}\end{align*}
Example B
Rewrite \begin{align*}x^{\frac{5}{6}}\end{align*} using radical notation.
This is correctly read as the sixth root of \begin{align*}x\end{align*} to the fifth power. Writing in radical notation, \begin{align*}x^{\frac{5}{6}}=\sqrt[6]{x^5}\end{align*}, where \begin{align*}x^5>0\end{align*}.
Example C
Simplify \begin{align*}\sqrt[3]{135}\end{align*}.
Begin by finding the prime factorization of 135. This is easily done by using a factor tree.
\begin{align*}&\sqrt[3]{135}= \sqrt[3]{3 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 5} = \sqrt[3]{3^3} \cdot \sqrt[3]{5}\\ & 3 \sqrt[3]{5}\end{align*}
Guided Practice
Evaluate \begin{align*}\sqrt[4]{4^2}\end{align*}.
Solution: This is read: "The fourth root of four to the second power."
The fourth root of 16 is 2; therefore,
