Rabbi Chaim Adelman at Eratz HaChaim, Sunderland, Massachusetts
No markings recto or verso Eretz HaChaim (Hebrew for "the living land") is a kosher, organic communal farm, founded in 2002 by Ultra-Orthodox Jews under the leadership of Rabbi Chaim Adelman. The commune, still in formation as of this writing, owns seventy acres of land. Following an early Jewish rule that presages modern sustainable farming practice, every seventh year they will let their land lie fallow. In accordance with the Torah, the "corners" of their fields will be left to the poor—if no poor show up to glean, the produce from the corners will be donated to charity. As Orthodox Jews they cannot milk cows on Saturdays, so gentiles will perform the task on that day. Their kosher organic chickens will not be fed grain during Passover. The community plans to be self-sufficient, with a synagogue, schools, a ritual bath and a swimming pool (the Talmud, a body of Torah interpretation, says that children must be taught to swim). Eretz HaChaim is part of a larger return to a Jewish farming tradition. Sweet Whisper Farm in Readsboro, Vermont, specializes in organic education and maple syrup harvested using horse-drawn wagons. Mitzva Farms in Waukon, Iowa, produces Yetta's Chedda, A Bis'l Swiss'l and Mazel Rella. From the portfolio, Sweet Earth: Experimental Utopias in America, 1982–2005

11th time lucky
4 October 2010, 23:00 News
Highlights of the day
First win for Vityaz
After 11 games Vityaz can finally celebrate a victory in the current championship. It has been the worst start by the club in all its time in the KHL. In the first season the men from Chekhov beat Torpedo in the shoot-out in their fourth game, and in their sixth took all three points against Neftekhimik. The club started the second KHL championship with two regulation time wins, against Torpedo and Metallurg Novokuznetsk.
Worst game for Mozyakin
Atlant attacker Sergei Mozyakin had never before finished a game with a rating as low as today's -3, although the forward picked up a -2 several times during the first two KHL championships. Curiously, it is not the first time Sergei has had a negative rating against Vityaz: last November he finished at a -1 despite the men from Mytishchi winning the game 4-3 in the shoot-out. Every other time Mozyakin has featured in a game between the Moscow Region neighbors he has been awarded a "plus" mark.
First goal in KHL
27-year-old Sibir attacker Konstantin Bogdanovsky is in his fourth season at the top level, having made his debut back in 2000 for SKA, but only scored his first goal today. Before now, at both the Petersburg club and at Sibir, he had contributed just one assist in 34 games in his first season for the Army Men. In the lower league, Konstantin performed much better, playing over two hundred games for teams from Saint Petersburg, Dmitrov and Neftekamsk, scoring 52 goals and making 66 assists.
Figure of the day
Over 232 minutes have elapsed since Atlant's players last scored on their own ice. They did enjoy a 1-0 win over Spartak in that spell, but that success came via the shoot-out.
Michael Garnett (Dynamo Moscow). Saved 29 shots – an impressive 93.5% - and helped his team to yet another victory.
Maxim Solovyev (Dynamo Moscow). Scored for the first time this season, in only his second appearance, and finished at a +1.
Andrei Kolesnikov (Vityaz, pictured). Was on the ice for over 26 minutes, during which he not only scored the game-winner, but also earned a +3.
Alexander Komaristy (Vityaz). Struck a double for the second time this season, this time with a short-handed goal and an empty net goal.
Igor Mirnov (Sibir). Scored his first double of the season, and collected points for the sixth game running.
Vladimir Tarasenko (Sibir). 14 minutes and 21 seconds on the ice, a power play goal and two more shots at the target.
"I had no complaints about my players' movement for the first two periods, but they were a bit low on energy at the end," Dynamo Moscow head coach Oleg Znarok.
"It was hard trying to get back into the game after allowing three goals in the first period," Lokomotiv head coach Kai Suikkanen.
"In the third period the tactic was to sit back in defense and try to grab a chance on the counterattack," Vityaz head coach Alexei Yarushkin.

Veterans Affairs issued 'gag order' and engaged in criminal cover-ups, lawmakers say
BY MARK FLATTEN | JUNE 11, 2014 | 6:20 PM
A Department of Veterans Affairs memo that prohibits top administrators from answering questions from members of Congress, the media or veterans' groups is being called a "gag order" meant to cover up agency wrongdoing by a Kansas congressman.
Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kansas, backed the charge by releasing the June 4 e-mail from Janet Murphy, acting deputy under secretary for health at VA, to dozens of top-tier officials nationwide instructing them not to talk to outsiders, including members of local congressional delegations.
"Please immediately stand down on any further communications with stakeholders, delegation members and others regarding the Access Audit, Wait Lists and Accelerating Care Initiative," Murphy's email states.
The email unearthed by Huelskamp comes as CNN is reporting two Pennsylvania congressmen, a Republican and a Democrat, claim VA officials in Pittsburgh tried to derail their efforts to find out about veterans who spent years on improper waiting lists without getting care.
Amid the mounting reports that members of Congress are being stonewalled and misled, Rep. Jeff Miller, R-Fla., chairman of the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs, called on acting VA Secretary Sloan Gibson to fire anyone responsible.
"Interfering with Congress' constitutionally mandated oversight responsibility is not just wrong, it's against the law," Miller said.
Miller added Gibson needs to "send a clear and powerful message that criminal behavior will not be tolerated within VA's ranks. The only way to do this is by immediately firing anyone who directed VA officials not to speak with members of Congress."
Reports of falsified records to hide long waits for care are being investigated by the VA inspector general and the agency's own internal review team. FBI Director James Comey also said Wednesday that his office has opened a criminal investigation of the Phoenix VA medical center, where reports of a "secret" waiting list surfaced in April.
The Phoenix facility was the flashpoint for the latest round of investigations.
The IG has already confirmed "systemic" efforts nationwide to falsify patient waiting lists to make it appear veterans were receiving treatment within the timelines set by VA policy. The internal VA audit also verified widespread falsification of patient wait times, often under the orders of supervisors.
The fallout from the IG's interim report issued last month led to the resignation of then-SecretaryEric Shinseki on May 30. Gibson is Shinseki's temporary replacement.
Huelskamp said Murphy's memo is a sign of a cover-up inside the VA.
"While the VA leadership was promising transparency, they were actually issuing a nationwide gag order to prevent further investigation of the growing VA scandal," said Huelskamp, a member of the House veterans' committee. "Instead of gag orders and cover-ups, it's time that every VA administrator come clean with what they know."
Huelskamp publicly raised the issue of an agency-wide gag order during a veterans' committee meeting Monday, when he asked Philip Matkovsky, assistant deputy under secretary for health at VA, whether such an edict would be appropriate.
Matkovsky said he was unaware of any orders prohibiting regional or local officials from talking to members of Congress or the news media.
Huelskamp said he went to the VA health center in Wichita earlier this month after hearing reports of secret waiting lists being kept there to hide backlogs in care. He was informed by local officials that they had been instructed not to talk.
They showed Huelskamp a copy of the Murphy email, but did not provide him a copy at the time, he said, adding he was provided a copy Tuesday afternoon.
Shortly after Huelskamp's June 4 visit, Murphy sent out another message to top administrators stating communication with members of Congress, the media, veterans groups and state and local officials "remains a top priority." But it did not authorize the staff to answer their questions.
Huelskamp confronted Matkovsky about the order during the hearing Monday.
"Do you think that helps build trust?" Huelskamp asked.
"It certainly does not," Matkovsky replied.
Matkovsky, who was under oath for his testimony, said that while he was not aware of such an email, it is possible one was sent out. His name does not appear on the list of recipients.
Huelskamp's drive to Wichita was triggered by conflicting reports about the number of patients on secret waiting lists there.
On May 30, Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kansas, was told during a visit to the facility that there were no patients on unauthorized waiting lists, according to Huelskamp.
Three hours later, the facility issued a letter acknowledging nine veterans on the list. By June 4, Huelskamp heard media reports there were 385, which prompted him to drive to Wichita.
An official report from VA issued Monday acknowledged 104 patients on improper waiting lists.
Walinda West, a VA spokeswoman, issued a statement Wednesday describing the Murphy memo as "a miscommunication" and apologizing for any confusion.The statement was labeled "not for attribution," but West later asked the Washington Examiner to quote her by name.
CNN reported Wednesday that Pennsylvania Reps. Tim Murphy, a Republican, and Mike Doyle, a Democrat, got a similar runaround.
Murphy received an unsolicited phone call May 28 from Terry Gerigk Wolf, director of the Pittsburgh VA hospital, and her deputy, who told Murply an audit had been done and the facility "passed with flying colors."
Murphy was skeptical, telling CNN he believed it was a "smokescreen."
He contacted Doyle, who had been told by Wolf there were 700 patients waiting to be scheduled for medical appointments in Pittsburgh.
Murphy and Doyle then called Wolf, who said she was aware of the waiting list three weeks before, but had been instructed not to inform members of the state's congressional delegation or she could be fired for disclosing the information, according to CNN.
Also Wednesday, the Blaze reported that Rep. Martha Roby, R-Ala., says she was misled by VA hospital officials who told her on Friday that employees responsible for falsifying patient wait lists "were no longer working at the VA."
It turned out those employees were reassigned, not fired.
"I believe I was misled," Roby said.

Here's Who You Think Should Sit With the First Lady for Obama's Speech
Matt VasilogambrosNational Journal
First Lady Michelle Obama waves from the gallery at President Obama's State of the Union.National Journal
With 400 Taliban militants bearing down on Combat Outpost Keating in Afghanistan, Staff Sergeant Clint Romesha was one of the U.S. troops to take back the overrun camp, risking his life along the way.
On Monday, President Obama will award Romesha with the country's highest military award: the Medal of Honor. On Tuesday, Romesha will have the privilege of sitting in the first lady's box at the president's State of the Union address.
Since Ronald Reagan's 1982 State of the Union speech, the White House has invited Americans to sit in the first lady's box to honor his or her contribution to the country or highlight a key part of the president's political agenda. The president is expected to discuss his ideas for bolstering the economy and urge action on key priorities, such as immigration reform and gun control.
Last week, we asked National Journal readers who they thought would get the coveted invite this year. Here are their suggestions:
Newtown Victims' Parents
(Recommended by Rachel Fauber, Kelsey Jones, Dfd3292, and Jen Kalaidis)
The mass shooting that killed 20 elementary school students in Newtown, Conn., spurred a renewed debate on gun control in the United States and prompted Obama to seek stricter laws. One reader mentioned by name Robbie Parker, the father of 6-year-old Emilie, who was killed in the Newtown shooting. In January, Obama unveiled a series of legislative proposals along with executive actions aimed at preventing gun violence.
Hadiya Pendleton's Parents
(Recommended by Helen Thompson)
As she was walking home from school, Hadiya Pendleton, a 15-year-old honor student from the South Side of Chicago, was shot dead in the crossfire of a gang fight. A week earlier, she traveled to Washington with her school's marching band to participate in the inaugural festivities. Just days after first lady Michelle Obama and other top administration officials, including senior adviser Valerie Jarrett and Education Secretary Arne Duncan, attended Pendleton's funeral in Chicago, the presence of her parents would bring a powerful reminder of the gun and gang violence that plagues the third-largest city in the U.S.
Sandy Victims
(Recommended by Jen Kalaidis)
Superstorm Sandy swept across the East Coast, devastating shore lines and displacing thousands of people. Although a relief package was held up in Congress, lawmakers eventually passed a bill that provided millions of dollars to states that were hit hard by the storm. The president might honor the victims, while also discussing the broader effects of climate change in the coming years.
(Recommended by Rachel Fauber, Daniel Flores, and Dfd3292)
With the immigration-reform effort gaining momentum in Congress, Obama is likely to highlight some of the undocumented immigrants in this country who want a path to citizenship. In his second inaugural address, the president said it would be one of his priorities in his agenda. Some Republican lawmakers have indicated openness to new immigration proposals. Obama could invite some of those undocumented immigrants, who call themselves "DREAMers," after the failed Dream Act that would would have provided a path to citizenship to certain immigrants who pursue higher education or military service in the U.S.
Sophia Bailey-Klugh
Sophia Bailey-Klugh, a 10-year-old from San Diego, wrote a letter to Obama about her two fathers and thanked the president for supporting same-sex marriage. Her letter went viral when one of her fathers posted the letter on Facebook. Last year, the president gave his support to same-sex marriage and made that issue and the pursuit of equal rights for gay couples a campaign theme. He also highlighted the issue in his inaugural address last month. Baily-Klugh could end up with an invitation to sit in the first lady's box. Or the White House might extend the invitation to another family with a same-sex couple.

Following some of the most extensive and heavy rain in Leeds and West Yorkshire in a century, Leeds roofers – DPR, are urging homeowners across the city to check their roofs for signs of damage and leaks before winter truly sets in.
With no severe weather warnings currently in place, now is the best time to check the integrity of your roof and if necessary make repairs before more rain, and sub zero temperatures, arrive.
Though the roof and the home as a whole may seem to have survived the extreme weather, this may not actually be the case. Minor damage that can eventually become more severe, costly, and dangerous generally occurs in areas of the roof that are out of sight and can only be found by careful inspection.
If you are unable to carry out a comprehensive examination of your Leeds roof then call us today and we'll be able to send an experienced team of Leeds roofers who can examine the roof in detail and report back on any damage with photographic evidence.
Homeowners should routinely carryout roof inspections, regardless of how extreme the weather has been. Twice-annual roof inspections enable property owners to find the smallest of damages and repair them with ease and at little expense. The alternative is waiting until it's too late which may also mean having to consider a complete roof repair or replacement.
With snow and ice already on the horizon in Leeds for December we recommend that you get your roof checked by DPR Roofing as soon as possible and avoid a potential Christmas catastrophe.

Adorable dog needs buggy after being rescued from Afghanistan streets by former RAF-servicewoman and having legs amputated
An adorable dog rescued by a former RAF servicewoman from the streets of Afghanistan has got a BUGGY to help him get around after his back legs were amputated.
Mazar had survived two years on the streets of Afghanistan with paralysed legs before being rescued by charity Nowzad.
Mazar needs a buggy to help him get around after his back legs were amputated
Vets amputated his hind legs because they were so badly damaged and tried him out with a set of wheels before bringing him back to the UK.
And while he does a great job of shuffling around without his back legs, Helene has bought him a buggy to help him get around.
The pooch was found on the streets of Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan
Helene Pettitt, 37, from Manchester, said: "It is incredible that Mazar survived at all – it's truly astonishing.
"And despite all he has been through he is so loving and trusting and an absolute inspiration.
"He is a fantastic example of why Nowzad is needed in Afghanistan and how important the work we do there is."
The pooch was found on the streets of Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan, and brought to the animal rescue charity Nowzad's clinic.
Nowzad helps reunite service men and women with the animals they adopt while on a tour of duty and help rescue strays that have been affected by conflict.
The team of vets believe Mazar was run over and crushed which led to his legs becoming completely paralysed.
Instead of four functioning limbs, he pulled himself along with his front legs while his back legs were fixed straight out in front of him and forced him to be stuck in 'sit' position.
When he arrived at the clinic, vets desperately tried to establish whether they could help him to use his back legs again but after two years of being fixed in place they were redundant.
The Nowzad vets made the difficult decision to amputate his back legs before giving him a set of wheels to replace his back legs.
But after so long of only using two legs, Mazar didn't know what to do with a full set of limbs and has now settled without them.
Instead the Nowzad team let him adjust to his new shuffle as Helene raised the £4000 needed to fly him safely to the UK.
After spending eight weeks fundraising, Mazar finally got the go ahead to take the long flight, via Dubai, to his new home in the UK.
He arrived with Helene last week and the former RAF-servicewoman, who is now an A&E doctor and says he's settled in quickly despite switching his former hot and dusty home for rainy Manchester.

She said: "It's like he's never known any different! He's settled in perfectly and it's very sweet to watch him shuffle around."
And because he can't move as quickly on two legs as Helene's two other dogs, she has bought a buggy to help him get around.
Helene added: "It's technically called a dog stroller but it's just like a pram you'd have for a baby.
"He can see out and get lots of other fresh air as we walk down to the beach.
"And once we've arrived I help him out and when all the other dogs go wild and run around, Mazar shuffles after them as fast as he can
"I don't think he realises that he's any different to the others.
"I've been supporting Nowzad for years and I've wanted to adopt one of their rescue strays for ages.
"When I heard about Mazar I knew he was the dog for me. But before I could start the process, the first thing we had to do was make sure that he would be alright living with my two cats.
"Thankfully, the team at the clinic in Afghanistan tried him out with a few of their cats and he was perfectly friendly so we started fundraising to bring him over.
"Now he's here he's enjoying the stroller and getting around fine – even with only two legs.
"We think he's about five years old, and some kind of Labrador cross – I will probably get him DNA tested to try and work it out officially.
"It's not really that important – I love him just the way he is."

Find out which type of dentures that could help you get a full smile back.
If you are considering getting dentures to replace your missing teeth then you may be wondering if there are different kinds of dentures out there and which one is right for you. Our Macon, GA, dentists Dr. Clinton Watson and Dr. Nicole Jackson understand that you may have many questions regarding getting dentures and we are here to help. Won't you join us as we tell you more about the types of dentures we offer?
As you might imagine, these dentures are ideal for patients who are missing a full row of teeth. These dentures are custom-made to sit right on top of the gums, forming a suction-like seal with the natural tissue to hold the dentures in place. If you've needed to have your teeth extracted, our Macon, GA, restorative dentist will want to wait several weeks (about 8 to 12 weeks) after the tooth extraction procedure before you can get your complete dentures.
Just as the name suggests, this type of dentures is best for patients who are only missing some of their teeth. In most cases, partial dentures contain clasps or metal attachments, which are secured to healthy neighboring teeth to hold the dentures in place. While dentures are often removable, in some instances a fixed partial denture (sometimes referred as a dental bridge) may be a better option for you.
As we mentioned earlier, you won't get your permanent dentures right away if you've just had teeth extracted. After all, we will need to wait for the gums to fully heal first. Of course, we know that you can't be without teeth, which is where immediate dentures come in. While they won't be your new teeth for very long they will provide you with the teeth you need until your gums fully heal and your permanent dentures are placed. Of course, immediate dentures aren't right for everyone, but we would be happy to discuss your denture options with you when you come into our office.
In this situation, dental implants are placed within the arches of the jawbone to provide a stable, strong foundation from which to secure your dentures. Implants are designed to last a long time and can prevent dentures from moving or shifting around while chewing or speaking.
Northside Family Dentistry in Macon, GA, is ready to help you turn your smile around, no matter if you want to turn to dentures or other options to replace your missing teeth. Call us today and let us know that you are interested in getting dentures.

Golf… and other four letter words
Sergio's Horrors at Augusta: Been There, Done That, Says Crenshaw
April 12, 2018 October 30, 2018 by eamonlynch
Just above the doorway through which players walk onto center court at Wimbledon is etched a line from Rudyard Kipling's celebrated poem If: "If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster / And treat those two imposters just the same."
Sergio Garcia could make a case for having that same inscription carved into the Sarazen Bridge at Augusta National. Gene's bridge crosses the pond fronting the 15th green, a journey Garcia himself memorably failed to make with five balls during the opening round of the Masters. He signed for a 13 on the par-5 and shot 81. A second-round 78 gave him the worst-ever two-day total by a defending champion. Only two amateur rookies fared worse.
One year earlier it was an epic eagle on that 15th that propelled Garcia to his first major win. Augusta National giveth, and Augusta National taketh away. No golf course does a better job of turning dreams to nightmares, complete with splashes of comedy and tragedy along the way.
"It's unexplainable. You get yourself in a little bit of trouble and it waterfalls. It was so sad," Ben Crenshaw said. "I mean, that was such a dichotomy, what happened before and this year. How can you explain that? It's not going to happen again. It's just weird."
Crenshaw can relate to Garcia. Not just with the dramatic Masters win and a seat at the Champions Dinner. There were lows, too. The years of painful sterility in the majors. Dismal performances as defending champions. Catastrophic hole meltdowns. Embarrassment. Ben's been there, every one of them.
"Many times," he said Saturday morning at Augusta National. "I played 43 times here. I've had all kinds of things happen. You get on a nice little run and then you just trip, and it shatters you. You go back to reality."
Garcia wasn't jovial after Thursday's disaster – when you're the reigning Masters champion and a pre-tournament favorite, the sting of humiliation doesn't allow for that degree of levity. But nor was he the Sergio of old, for so long prone to petulance, blame games and club tossing when things went awry. He addressed it matter-of-factly, then went home to his wife and month-old daughter, Azalea.
Perspective. Maturity. The kinds of traits that often come with a green jacket. And parenthood.
Crenshaw knows it matters more about how you react after the many indignities that golf inflicts. In his final Masters in 2015, the then 63-year-old shot 91 in the first round. A lot of guys would have reached for their backs or called a cab. Crenshaw went out and tried his best on all 85 shots he needed on Day Two. He was DFL, by 13 shots. The game that earned him two Masters titles had deserted him, but the professionalism he had shown for decades never did.
It was tested over the years here. He too ran up a gruesome number at the very same hole that scuppered Garcia.
"I think I made a 12 on No. 15. Did the same thing he did," Crenshaw recalled. "The only difference is I was into the wind. But I kept hitting. Three balls in the water." Was it embarrassing. "Oh sure," he said quickly. "Sure it is."
"You see so many spectacular things happen on a positive note, then you see just tragedy," he added philosophically. "People remember."
There's another lesson for Garcia in that story: People remember, but winners forget. Crenshaw never made a 12. It was an 11. It kept him in the Masters record books as the highest score ever made on No. 15 for 21 years, until Garcia passed him. Scars fade faster when you own a jacket.
"He'll take it well," the old veteran said. "He'll be stronger for it."
Next year they might even laugh about it over dinner. Say, Tuesday night at Augusta National?
