Gefilte Fuck was one of the first Yidcore bands from Los Angeles. Jews From The Valley, a punk outfit featuring Gefilte Fuck's Mark Hecht and local scenester Bob Moss (of Wednesday BBQ fame) preceded it by a few years, but Gefilte Fuck had a sound and style all their own.
Each member would wear a tallis, yamulke, or both. Singer Howard Hallis would come out holding a bottle of Manichevitz wine and scream out to the crowd "Yer all a bunch of G-ddamn bastards! Oy!" and proceed to throw chunks of gefilte fish on the dance floor. The hardcore punk guitar would start, and there would be a Hora dance moving in the center of the mosh pit. It was quite a sight, and each show was a lot of fun. The sets would consist of hardcore versions of popular Jewish songs such as "Hava Nagila", "Dreidel", a few originals such as "Kibbutz" (written by Bregman), and some parodies ("Smells Like Jew Spirit"). All the members of the band were Jewish except for Robin, the drummer. He didn't seem to mind, though. Eliza Schneider joined the band after the recordings featured on this page were made and played violin.

NEWS : "The 40-year-old Mr. Everett was raised in McLean, Va., with his sister Elizabeth, mother Nancy and father Hugh Everett III, a quantum physicist who in 1957 proposed a formal theory of parallel universes known as 'The Many-Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics.' 'Everett's work has boggled minds inside and outside physics for more than four decades,' reported Scientific American in last month's issue. Mr. Everett said his brilliant father wasn't communicative at home. When I asked him what the conversation was like around the breakfast table, he replied, 'There wasn't any.' 'Physicists and geniuses don't always make great family men. I lived with him for 18 years and I learned more about him from the Internet.' Mr. Everett's family was a heartrending source of inspiration for his most notable work, the 1998 album 'Electro-Shock Blues' (DreamWorks), written after his sister committed suicide and h...

Digital Cam media safe to fly with

Technocrat.net : "Recent tests found no evidence of X-ray scanner damage to digital camera media cards or to the images they hold. The tests of scanner models currently in use in the U.S. transportation industry were jointly conducted by the International Imaging Industry Association (I3A), the leading global association for the imaging industry; SanDisk Corporation, a manufacturer of digital media cards; and the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA). These findings mean that digital cameras and their image storage media can travel safely in either checked or carry-on bags, which will be reassuring to holiday travelers. And though they were not explicitly tested, it is likely that images on camera-phones will be safe in either situation as well. More care is needed for cameras with film, however, as the X-ray scanners for both checked and carry-on luggage can fog both developed and undeveloped film."
