Thread Name: Rabbi Sol's New Website
Subject: RE: Rabbi Sol's New Website
Technically, I am both a member and Membercard partner of WFUV.
where I am listed at: WFUV - North of the City Membercard Partners, I offer a 10% discount for video, audio, web, and photographic services to WFUV members.

I'm NOT ON ASSIGNMENT from WFUV to do photos, video, etc., nor am I a staff member, officially REPRESENT the station, am a paid independent contractor, etc. although I do have a press pass representation from the Jewish Voice and Opinion when I do Jewish-oriented events, some of which have been published in the JVO and HaModia.

You can visit my website at: Maximum Impact Media, Inc. and see photos and videos of these press items at: Maximum Impact Media, Inc. webzine

I have taken photos and videos of numerous WFUV artists, most recently, Crowded House at the Fillmore East at Irving Plaza, Richard Thompson at the Nokia Theatre at Time Square, and John Gorka at Sanctuary Concerts, where I had a bonafide photo pass from the artists' management using professional equipment.

I have also taken photos of many Orthodox Jewish musicians.

I hope to exhibit some of these photos and videos at Finkelstein Memorial Library, Spring Valley, New York, during November 2009. Finkelstein Memorial Library. I am also working on having an accompanying live performance to go with my exhibit on November 9th.

Charity is one of the pillars of the World according to Torah Judaism. As a volunteer member of the Borderline Folk Music Club, I volunteered to host/make their website. Rabbi Sol must have misunderstood my background to when I introduced myself over the phone before I attended a meeting. I thank Rabbi Sol for his support and kudos here and elsewhere.

Note: I do apologize to any parties when a link to WFUV appeared on the club's page before theirs. This omission was not intentional and was because the site was under construction.
