The News • November, 1994-Page 17 the Jewish Commimiry CemeK ISSUES 2000 - NANOTECHNOLOGY: THE WAY OF THE FUTURE It's a word most people have not heard of, but tWs pre cise science is the way of tomor row. Come to the Jewish Community Center on Tuesday, November 29 at 7:30 p.m., and discover what this fascinating topic will mean to your life in the not so distant future. A nanometer is one 100- millionth of a meter; far smaller than any of us can imagine. A great many consumer products ranging from VCRs to personal computers require nanotechnology for their pro duction and function. New products, such as mo lecular computers and micromechanisms are envi sioned for the future. Such products could allow the cre ation of small machines to per form heart repair and other medical tasks without invasive surgery. More direct nanotechnology is the base tech nology enabling the so-called information revolution. We are also beginning to see engineered materials with properties that will alter even familiar products such as automobiles. Dr. Robert J.

This month we have cut out all of the excess fat so that we may offer nothing but efficiently nutritious athletic news. (Actually it's fifteen min utes to deadline and our computers are on the blink) Youth Soccer is in the heart of the season. Teams are doing great. Rug rats molded into high-performance soccer machines. Coaches include Glenn Fishkin, David Segal, Michael Danze, Kevin Weatherford, Tim Gamey, Darren Mond, Jered Mond, Paul Kessler, and Michael Kutsenko. Many others have done a big part. Too many others to get typed in such short time. But for those who know, pat yourself on the back. The Adult Spring Racquetball League is worse than the Ener gizer Bunny. Still waiting for certain tourney matches to be played. Not enough time to mention the culprits who are named Tim Gamey, Doug Masterson, Jeanne Patton, George Cronson, Stuart Napshin, and Matt Goldstein. These at-large people are reported to be armed and dangerous (although ob viously not armed with a racquet). Adult Softball seemingly began the fall season twice. After twenty-three consecutive rainouts (can you believe that?) the pitchers finally stood on solid ground. The official stats are not out as yet, so we can not say for sure who is leading the batting race. However, we ARE sure that it is not last year's batting champ, David Segal, who still claims that it is all (not) in the wrist. The Adult Basketball League was just entering its fruitiest sea son yet. This fall, we have team colors such as mango, candy- apple, lemon, spoiled orange, blue berry, and cantaloupe. The seedy guys playing this time are peeling their way up the floor and picking apart defenses. Oooops!
