We extend our sincere con-
gratulations to the Miami
Chapter Senior Hadassah. We
know of the struggle that
went. on within the ranks as
to the selection of a place for
the installation of the newly
elected officers. A very splen-
did step in the right move-
ment has been taken by the
organization. We sincerely
trust that all Jewish organ-
izations will realize that
their affairs should be held
where "Kosher" meals may
be served. That is the policy
that has been adopted by
every national organization
such as the Hadassah, the
Zionist Organization of
America and others. The din-
\ner in the Palatial Kosher
Restaurant is a splendid

"Shvuoth" the "Zman Ma-

episode in the history of the
Jewish people. The giving to
the Jewish people of the

which has given to us the
name of the "people of the
book." We celebrate that
feast today. Confirmations of

this age of civilization, in
this this time of modernity,
in the era of so called com-
mon understanding and good
will, a man of standing, an
attorney of rank, a former

Back near the door sat a demure old couple who seem-
ed ill at ease. Ther faces were lined; their hands showed
the marks of hard labor. They alone of all the guests

But when the young man came down from the plat-
form he strode quickly across the room and, reaching the
old couple, put his arms around them.
The audience cheered.
I thought of Thomas Carlyle who, when fame came
to him, looked backed from the fashionable society of Lon-
don to the rugged farm where he had grown up, and the
humble parents whose self-sacrifice had made his career
possible. Said he:
"I feel to my father, so great though so neglected, so
generous always towards me, a strange tenderness pecu-
liar to the case, infinitely soft and near my heart. Was
he not a sacrifice to me?"
And he added: "I can see his life in some measure
as the sunken pillar on which mine was to be built. Had
I stood in his place, could he not have stood in mine and
more ?'
I thought of the father of Robert Burns and the "pains
he took to get proper schooling for his boys, and when
that was no longer possible, the sense and resolution with
which he set himself to supply the deficiency by his own
influence. For many years he was their chief companion;
he spoke to them seriously on all subjects as if they were
grown men; at night, when work was over, he taught them
arithmetic; he borrowed books for them on history, science,
and theology... He would go to his daughter as she stayed
afield herding cattle, to teach her the names of the grasses
and wild flowers, or to sit by her side when it thundered."
I thought of the father of John Stuart MiH, neglect-
ing his own interests in order to work patiently at the edu-
cation of his boy; of Thomas Lincoln, struggling to keep
his poverty-stricken family together-of all the uncounted

gnarled hands of the little old couple sitting shyly by

These are legion, in name, form, and content. It has
always been a mystery to me, why people often insist on
purgative medicines that do more to irritate the digestive
tract than they do to restore a deranged function; there are
folks who want their livers "shaken up," and will bear
with a night of griping pain, in the belief that they need
a good "stirring up."
Last week an elderly woman came into my office for
advice about a pain near the point of the right shoulder-
blade; her home physician had given her some pills for it, but
he had told her to take them only once a week. She showed
me the box that held her supply-it was labelled "Com-
pound Cathartic." I agreed that the pills were good, but
I told her I would take them only once every four or six

When Lila first starts tending the Reverend's garden, she starts small, but it grows once she becomes his wife. Sometimes, she dreams of running away into the woods with their son to have him to herself and to teach him that way of life, but it is just a dream because she knows how sad that would make her husband, and she is fond of the beautiful old man. Still, Lila cannot help her strange thoughts, and she constantly waits for him to change his mind and tell her to leave.
After Reverend Ames and his friend, Reverend Boughton, discuss souls one Saturday evening, Lila begins to worry about Doll's soul, and wanting to avoid Heaven if Doll will not be there, Lila slips off to the river early the next morning to wash the baptism off of her in the river...

Missing camera
When you are having guests, sometimes that dash of cleaning leads to problems. Like how my camera is completely lost. I've issued a reward to all children in the house. Even that has not managed to help the camera surface. So this explains my lack of blog posts. Hopefully it worms its way out from wherever it is and I can post again with abandon. I have lots to share!

Set to rival the BMW 5-series, Mercedes E-class and Audi A6, the Infiniti M37 uses the smooth 3.7-litre V6 engine featured in other Infiniti models, including the G37 Coupé and EX 37 sports utility vehicle.
The entry-level M37 model will be priced from £35,150 making it more than £2,000 cheaper than the equivalent BMW 535i, and adheres to Infiniti's ethos of offering generous amounts of equipment as standard: the M37 gets a seven-speed automatic gearbox, reversing camera, a hard disk drive sound system and xenon headlights.
Other trim levels in the M37 range will be the GT (from £37,650) and S (from £38,650), the former providing heated and ventilated front seats and the latter offering four-wheel steering, sports suspension and 20in alloy wheels.
On top of this buyers can also specify Premium upgrade versions of the M37. Priced from £43,000 these include a Forest Air climate control system that is said to create stress-busting gentle breezes and subtle scents, as well as Eco Pedal, an efficiency-boosting technology that senses when the car is being driven too aggressively and pushes back the accelerator to tell the driver that fuel is being wasted.
For now buyers can only view the M37 up close at Infiniti's sole Reading dealership and must settle for the petrol V6, which delivers 317bhp, 0-62mph in 6.2 seconds and 27.7mpg on the Combined cycle. CO2 emissions are 235g/km meaning that it falls into the second highest VED band.
Further Infiniti showrooms are set to open in Glasgow, Birmingham and Central London, while the petrol engine will be joined by a diesel model in October and a hybrid some time in 2011.
Price: £35,150 for M37 3.7-litre V6 to £45,000 for the M37 Premium.
Engine: 3.7-litre petrol V6

Rust Never Sleeps But Your Bike Might
An old trick to protect your shiny new bike is to slap loud and ugly paint all over it. Much more subtle is Dominic Wilcox's temporary rust stickers, that are "designed to make your beautiful bike/car look rusted and scratched so that passing thieves assume it's not worth stealing due to its apparent shabbyness."
The inventor notes that he put them on his new bike 13 days ago and it has not been stolen yet, which he considers "probably equates to 7 years of non-stealing in the friendly countryside." Only £3.99, a lot cheaper than my lock....

WC: Dave Johnson – The Thinking Man's Cover Artist
In a lively and breathtakingly fast discussion, Howard Chaykin kvelled over the talents of talents of "100 Bullets" cover artist Dave Johnson at San Francisco's WonderCon Friday afternoon. It was a small crowd (Chaykin correctly predicted there would be ten audience members in attendance, which overjoyed Johnson, but lost him a bet.)
Chaykin started the session by mentioning that he'd sent, in all seriousness, an e-mail to Johnson wishing he could take six months off to work as his assistant. "Dave is consistently the finest cover designer working in the field today. He finds the bridge between the intellectual and the emotional."
Born in Pittsburgh, Johnson moved to Georgia as a child. Chaykin asked about the size of his family, saying that "most of us (artists) are either the oldest or only children" When Johnson replied that he had an older sister; Chaykin responded that "a man with a sister is an only child." John discovered comics as a kid, but like so many fans, put them down, only to pick them up again in the late '70s, starting with John Byrne and Chris Claremont's run on "X-Men." He eventually enrolled at the Art Institute of Atlanta, studying painting, but ultimately became more interested in illustration. The thing that stuck with him, he said, "was billboards; you have five seconds to deliver a message." Applying that concept to comic covers, he said, "You're walking down the aisle (at your comic shop), and the simpler the design, and the brighter and bolder the covers, the better an idea it is. You say 'Batman,' and get the whole message at once."
Chaykin said that the first time he'd really noticed Johnson's work was his covers for DC's "All-Star" miniseries in 1999. "They actually fucked me up," he said.
Johnson: "When I designed them, I wanted the logos to be really huge, but the art to be simple and just two-tone (color) strips." Someone in DC editorial shot down that idea, but years later, Johnson met fellow artist Jim Steranko. Steranko went through Johnson's portfolio and came to those "All-Star" covers. "He went back and forth and back and forth and finally said 'the art should have been two-tone.' He felt vindicated and wished he'd been able to go back up to the DC offices "to kick their ass."
Both Johnson and Chaykin are big fans of the graphic artists of the 1950s. Chaykin especially admired the artists who did simple covers for paperback novels: "There was a Wild West approach; there was no need to reference every idea in the book."
Johnson picked up the point: "On '100 Bullets,' something clicked. 'I don't have to be literal to make a good cover; I just have to be interesting. It started with the one with the rubber stamps on the cover ('100 Bullets' #21). I was going to paint it like Leroy Nieman. It looks easy, but it's really hard to put off. I had to hit FedEx the next day (to deliver the art) and I thought, 'well, I'll just make a stamp that says "Loser," and make a face out of that. I sent it off (to DC), and I thought I was going to get fired. But not only did they not freak out, but Karen Berger herself called me to say what a good cover it was. That's when I realized I just had to be fearless (when creating a cover)."
Johnson kept disparaging his own talents. Chaykin couldn't believe that he'd never submitted his work to the "Illustrator's Annual" (the full color annual showcasing American and international illustration). "James Jean does! Why don't you!?!"
When Johnson explained, "I don't feel I'm at that level," Chaykin went off on one of his trademarked rants: "There's nothing wrong with Jean, but he's more of a crowd pleaser; you're smarter, cleverer, and more sophisticated. He's panders to the warm and fuzzy nature of comics fans. And I fucking hate that shit; I resent being manipulated. It's good work, but it's like martial music; I hate it, but I listen to Sousa, and I can feel myself saying 'let's go kick someone's ass.' There's a level of overt sentiment in comic fans; they like it pretty. Not to speak ill of the dead, but take Michael Turner's work; it's so obvious, there's no subtlety. Your work is so much smarter and sophisticated."
Johnson replied, "I realized I'm never gonna be the king of the world-an Alex Ross; the way you're talking about my art is not the way I look at it. I'm Joe Schmo; I'm just having fun. People look at it and I say I'm just having fun. I got burned out on "Red Son" -I'm not a continuity guy – and realized I can't do this anymore."
Chaykin responded: "I think you're a dreadful judge of your own talent. Your work is as identifiable as Adam Hughes, Kevin Nowlan, or Mike Golden. Gil Kane was a guy who never realized he'd transcended his influences." And he feels Johnson has done that. "I'd like to take control of your career," he said.
Talk turned to Johnson's technique. "I just basically learned the basics; to do everything dark (when painting) before bringing in the acrylics, and layer on the colors and the lighter shades; to keep opacity as low as possible. I'm trying to be less opaque and more brushy. I'm a terrible painter; it's a pure accident that it comes out as good as it does. It's almost like cooking; you have to do things in order"-"That's baking," Chaykin interrupted. Johnson continued, "I get too impatient and I start jumping all over and then look at it and psych myself out and think, 'Aw, I should have done it this way.' A lot of the time, I don't even know what I'm doing. I'm not thinking about it and just doing it and then look at it and realize it's exactly right. Usually, if I paint something, I like to paint it all the way; I don't like to half-paint it and then digitize it; there's a technique I can do with a digital greywash, and the layering looks fantastic." Johnson explained that he does all of his preliminary work in his head for about a week and then renders them in an hour or so. "Most editors are clueless" (about ideas for covers) and he just "doesn't want to present them with ten comps." He'd rather deliver just the final product.
Chaykin asked him about his preferred media. "If you were committed to one medium the rest of you life, what would it be?" Johnson said "If you look at my work, I'm all over the place. It's not like McDonald's; you go there anywhere in the world, and you you're going to get the same thing in the same way. And a lot of artists are like that. But I get bored."
Talk turned to process. Because of the need for images in "Previews Magazine," his deadline has gotten earlier and earlier. "Originally, I was getting finished pages; then it was just pencils; then it was just full scripts; then finally just a synopsis. It got to the point where Brian (Azzarello) hadn't even started writing the script yet, so I did the cover with guy floating in a pool with a knife in his back ("100 Bullets" #62), and there was nothing like that in that book. People thought it must refer to a subplot that was coming up."
"You must feel intimidated by working with a guy (Eduardo Risso) whose interiors are so powerful." "It's a problem. If I'm drawing the Punisher, well, everyone's drawn the Punisher, but Eduardo's the only one who's drawn the '100 Bullets' characters, so I feel intimidated by that."
Influences? "John Byrne, Michael Golden. Byrne is a total asshole, though-I met him once and I vowed never to do that again." Chaykin chimed in again: "The good thing about Byrne is, as long as he's alive, you know you never have to be the most despised man in comics." Meeting Byrne made Johnson vow never to treat fans the way Byrne treated him. Johnson was at a convention with his portfolio, and was excited to see Byrne at a table with no crowd. "I can finally get to meet one of my influences. I went up to him and said, 'I've started working at DC, and just wanted to get your opinion.' He went through my portfolio quickly, and finally said, 'You draw like Paul Gulacy.' He threw it back at me and turned away. I had similar experiences with Art Adams and Mike Golden, but now I can tweak them about it."
Johnson then described the process behind constructing a cover. "I get a script or a 'this is what I'm thinking about writing.' I'm working on 'The Unknown Soldier' right now, and it's set in Sudan; there's a lot of kids with guns, and there's a lot of downer imagery to pull from. But the word came down, 'Don't do African masks; don't do the cliches,' so it's difficult to get good strong imagery. It's easier to do the Punisher; you can always come back to that skull. It's like Batman; I'm always looking for something to hold on to. I try to stay away from doing 'panel covers;' I don't want a cover to just look like panels in a book. I'm always trying to do something a little different. What's a graphic element I can pull out and put on the cover?"
His goal is to "Not sell the comic, but to do something I'm happy with. If it's a new book, I try to give it a little mystery. With "100 Bullets," after about 50 issues, there was a point where, if you weren't already buying the book, you weren't going to start buying it. So it was a chance to do something a little more experimental. To me, it looks cool. I've done some of the simplest covers, and people have hated them, but if it makes for a good cover, I don't care."
His biggest rule? "Don't follow Adam Hughes on covers if it's a chick book."

"I am very pleased with the closing of the financings as they enable the Company to move forward with its ultra pure, low cost hydrogen project," stated Michael Soursos, CEO. "Our team is currently preparing the next stages of development on the project and I expect to have further news out shortly."
About Hydrogen
Hydrogen is the simplest, most prolific, and lightest element in the universe. Hydrogen is not normally available in a gaseous state in our environment, since it readily combines with oxygen to form water, or with carbon to form fossil fuels such as crude oil, natural gas, or coal. Hydrogen has a number of uses, including in the manufacture of ammonia, but it is its potential as a fuel that is attracting significant interest and investment. It has been possible to construct or convert internal combustion engines to run on hydrogen for some time, but safety and storage concerns prevented any wide scale use. Recent advances in technology, particularly in fuel cells, allied to the environmental concerns from burning fossil fuels, have caused a re-evaluation of hydrogen as a power source.
First discovered by German scientist Christian Friedrich Schönbein in 1838, fuel cells are only now coming to widespread attention, in a large part due to their potential to replace the internal combustion engine in cars and commercial road vehicles. Fuel cells chemically convert hydrogen to electricity to provide power, emitting only water vapor as a waste product in the process.
All major car manufacturers have, or are planning, hydrogen fuel cell powered vehicles, and there are already hundreds of hydrogen fuel cell powered buses on the streets of the world's major cities. Fuel cell powered vehicles are more energy efficient than internal combustion powered vehicles, can be refueled in a matter of minutes and can travel for hundreds of miles between refueling. In addition to road vehicles, hydrogen fuel cells are also being investigated for their potential in airplanes, submarines and boats, smartphones and other electronics, food preservation and emergency power systems.
The most common methods of producing hydrogen at the moment are by stripping the carbon atoms out of compressed natural gas using steam (known as "cracking") or the electrolysis of water. Both these processes are expensive, energy intensive and in the case of cracking, produces waste carbon. Commercial production of clean, cheap hydrogen is therefore a key requirement for large scale fuel cell usage.

Most of you probably now Dale Earnhardt Jr. as a hot shot race car driver, a two time Daytona 500 winner but you probably don't know that Earnhardt is a very sentimental guy. You would expect that his collection would consist of fast race cars but a lot of the cars he keep are because of sentimental value, cars that reminds him of his late father.
For 17 years, Earnhardt was a driver for Chevrolet so we should also expect that he has some Chevy cars in his garage. He also says that he loves the feel and look of classic American muscle.
Let's take a look at Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s classic car collection.
1967 Camaro Gen I
Although it looks like an original 1967 Camaro, it has several modification made by Earnhardt for increased power and stability. Done by Detroit Speed, sub frame connectors and also the Quadra Link with four-link rear suspension. A hydroformed subframe was also installed in the front. He says that he prefers his classic cars to be as original as possible, modifying them would lose the purpose of keeping classic cars.
This 1967 Camaro is Earnhardt's Favorite, with great speed and handling who wouldn't fall in love with this car? This is the car the he mostly uses to drive around his home in Mooresville, North Carolina.
Engine Chevy Small block crate V8 engine
Transmission Five-speed Manual Transmission
1972 Trans Am Racer
Similar to the 1967 Camaro, this second generation 1972 coupe was modified to have the performance of a Trans Am Racer but would still look like an original 1972 coupe. The restoration and modification was done at the Detroit Speed shop by Kyle Tucker. It was repainted with the Hugger Orange them as requested by Earnhardt. A lot of modern parts were used for this custom build.
A Chevy Performance LS2 crate Engine was installed to this 1972 Trans Am Racer. Earnhardt said that he wanted it to be roadworthy but still has the performance of an American muscle. For stability, mini-tubs and Quadra Links system was installed by the Detroit Speed.
Engine LS2 crate Engine
Transmission five-speed manual transmission
Suspension Quadra Links system
The 1967 Camaro and the 1972 coupe are probably the stars of Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s collection.
These two car the cars he actively drives around town. It is great to see such beast get to roam around unlike some who just ends up in a gallery for display.
1977 Oldsmobile Cutlass
1977 Oldsmobile Cutlass is one of the cars mostly used in the 1978, 1979, and 1980 Daytona 500. Earnhardt says that he doesn't really like the design or performance of the Cutlass, he just keeps it because of his love for his sport.
Engine Location Front
Engine V6 3785 cc | 231.0 cu in. | 3.8 L.
Transmission 5-speed manual transmission
Drive Type Rear Wheel
Body / Chassis Separate body on perimeter box
Bore 3.8 in | 97 mm.
Stroke 3.4 in | 86 mm.
1956 Chevrolet Bel-Air Nomad Station Wagon
This is the car that he drives to the Daytona if he is just going to watch the race that is. This is very sentimental for Earnhardt as his father also had a Chevy Nomad in his collection.
Type 2-Door Wagon
Color Lime Green and Siver Bel Air Style
Mileage 26,767
Engine ZZ4 350 cid. Crate motor
Transmission 3-speed TH350 automatic trans. W/overdrive
Fuel Type Unleaded/Super or Regular
Safety Features Front Disk Brakes, Frt/Rr Seat Belts,Power Steer.
Trim Bel Air
Interior Color Gray
1948 Chevrolet Truck "Grunge Truck"
It may look like a very rugged ride but it actually has a modern interior. Earnhardt purposely made it to keep the look as it is but has made repairs on the important parts to keep in running. He rebuilt the drivetrain and replaced the chassis with a new one. Earnhardt said he likes to surprise people and make them think that this is a beat up truck which it isn't.

Tai Haruru Lodge, Piha
Ta Haruru, meaning "the sound of the waves", is a fitting name for our lodge in Piha, which sits only a few minutes' walk to Piha beach.
The lodge has two bedrooms (one with double bed, one with three single beds) and a daybed in the lounge, sleeping up to 5 people. An open fireplace makes a wonderful end to a day's walking in the winds of a wild west winter. The lodge is wheelchair accessible. Additional details and booking information here.

This is a beautiful sight. Snowshoe has seen their first snow of the season and are reporting 4.5" of natural snow over the past few days. In addition, they've turned on the snow guns in preparation for their scheduled November 27th opening. Gotta build that base!

Dear Pastor:
That was pretty slick! I liked how you preached the "In Everything Give Thanks" sermon, and then tell us you're leaving! There'll never be another Doc, and I am so thankful that I have had the pleasure these many years to hear you speak. (See, I was listening.)
Dear Self:
Really…the toaster oven is not the best place to rest your cell phone as it charges...even if the only reason you put it there was to keep the heat from the dishwasher from affecting it. I assure you, 25 minutes of toaster oven heat is much worse. I'm thankful that my phone still seems to work fine, including my camera.
Dear Carbs:
Why did you sneak in that half of Logan's roll I ate? Had it not been for you, I may have eaten two…or three of those rolls...I'm thankful I only hate half.
Dear Logan's Roll:
You really aren't as good as I remembered you were from the last time I partook of your refined white flour and yeast baked blend. I am thankful that you will not tempt me too much anymore.
Dear Pittsburgh Steelers:
Seriously? But then again, if I were getting paid as much as you, I'd wear some silly looking Honey Nut Cheerios Bee-looking uniform, too, if it were demanded of me. I'm thankful it's not demanded of me.
Dear Hustle Bustle:
I can hardly believe that by the end of this week, you will be in full force. I wish people understood that they don't have to go far into debt, stressing and straining their budgets to give more than they can afford, because this season is not at all about making retailers rich. It's about Christ, and His gift to us. I am very thankful for Jesus, who stepped out of eternity to give His life for me, so that I could be redeemed. Forever, I am grateful.

Rep. Paul Gosar (AZ-1) provides details of committee vote to find Eric Holder in contempt of Congress.
Special Report: Gosar Votes to Bring Contampt Charges to Floor of Congress
Dear Friend,
Today the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, of which I am a proud member, moved forward with contempt charges against Attorney General Holder to find answers and obtain justice for the victims of the horrendous Operation Fast and Furious.
"The documents sought by the House Oversight Committee and associated with Operation Fast and Furious should be produced and turned over to the committee. Our son lost his life protecting this nation, and it is very disappointing that we are now faced with an administration that seems more concerned with protecting themselves rather than revealing the truth behind Operation Fast and Furious." To continue reading the Terry Family statement click here.
The American people and Congress have waited patiently for factual information from their Attorney General. Time is up. We are tired of the evasion. We are tired of the lies. We are tired of our elected officials and bureaucrats acting as if they are above the law. Americans deserve answers. Congress has the Constitutional responsibility and oversight to make sure that operations like Fast and Furious do not happen again. This is about making sure that future attorney generals do not act as if they are above our Constitution, above our law. We deserve accountability, transparency and justice from our leaders.
Sincerely, Paul A. Gosar, D.D.S. Member of Congress
