One of the articles I read in the Gale Virtual reference Library was titled “ Censorship” in the enclopedia Judaica. The article talked of the censorship of Jewish literature starti8ng with the Catholic church, then moving into the government restrictions, and lastly into the jewish rabbinical hierarchy censor the ideas they didn’t want proselytized.

The Catholic church did the Jewish people dirty! They banned everything from the Talmud which is akin to the bible and holds just as much significance to the Jewish people as the bible does to Christians. They censored all Jewish writings from the mid 13^th century to 1943, yes I said 1943.

Government of Jewish writings seems to spring from the church’s ban, they carried to the extreme in Germany banning any writings from any Jewish person including well known authors such as Sigmund Freud May 10. 1933.

Then comes worst censors of all themselves, the Rabbi’s whom didn’t want seditious ideas to leak out there would put the kibosh on anything nearing an opposing view this stretches back to early Christian times and beyond.

So the Wikipedia Article reiterated much of what the other article was saying but in much less depth. The article was generalized and left out which churches were censoring, but also brought up the fact that now the ones do most of the censoring are the Jewish Rabbinical Leaders once agin if it doesn’t fit in with how they believe they ban it from there congregations.

So it says to summarize my experience between Wiki and GVRL. Well the GVRL is like a hamberger from Red Robin all big, filling, and delicious; while wiki is like Mcdonalds burger good but not filling, not really delicious and definitely not Red Robin's. 

Three Questions for deeper research. 

When did the Sanhedrin start banning heretical writings in what year B.C. ?

What was the Catholic Churches censorship derived from? What were they afraid of?

What can the Jewish people learn from this 2500 years of being censored? Do they want to?

Lib 115

1. Last summer, my family and I traveled to Chicago, which was quite different from the rural area I grew up in. We saw the dinosaur Sue at the Field Museum, and ate pizza at Gino's East.

The Example in one was writing their own experiences and where they were going and doing so I do not believe any citation was needed.

2. Americans want to create a more perfect union; they also want to establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty for everybody.

This is paraphrasing the Constitution of the U.S.A. so it most definitely needs to be acknowledged.

3. I find it ridiculous that 57% of high school students think their teachers assign too much homework.

Where the person got that 57% of High School students think they have too much homework needs to be to be explored. What study? Who wrote it? Where is it printed?

4. Martin Luther King was certain that nobody would want to be contented with a feigning type of social analysis that concerns itself only with effects and doesn't deal with root causes.

In Martin Luther King’s ‘letter from Birmingham Jail’ is how the person in number four should of wrote his letter. Than cited in full citation. Like this MLA style

 King, Martin Luther, Jr. “Letter from Birmingham Jail.” The Norton Anthology of African American Literature. Ed. Henry Louis Gates, Jr. and Nellie Y. McKay. New York: Norton, 1997.1854 – 66.

Or like this APA

5. Martin Luther King wrote that the city of Birmingham's "white power structure" left African-Americans there "no alternative" but to demonstrate ("Letter from the Birmingham Jail" para. 5).

Same with this one.

6. In "Letter from the Birmingham Jail," King writes to fellow clergy saying that although they "deplore the demonstrations taking place in Birmingham, your statement fails to express a similar concern for the conditions that brought about the demonstrations."

Again cite it!

7. My friend Kara told me that she loves living so close to the ocean.

No citation needed

8. Americans are guaranteed the right to freely gather for peaceful meetings.

According to the constitution of the U.S.A.

I am not sure if I have learned anything new this week in the class both of my Eng. Teachers were big sticklers on plagiarism so they made us study a lot of material on it. And if in question cite it! I am not sure about this whole Fair use clause in the copyright laws. Because like I stated in the forum that HOPE picture is just a painted replica of the photograph and should fall under copyright laws. Anyway I hope to avoid all plagiarism in the future.

Wow, I have learned how easy it is to create a Blog, This is awesome!

What a difference from just writing a paper because once this is published it is out there for the whole world to see, not just the classroom, or the teacher but the entire world!

I am interested to see how this turns out rather than a community I am already part of like Facebook, there i have a set group of people who see my posts here it is more random.
