In 2006 he got to chair an international meeting and made a bunch of Star Trek jokes. Unfortunately that meant he had to help plan the 2011 meeting. He is also helping with the 2013 meeting.

Ann - Has been working in the medical coding field (i.e., digitizing medical records; reviewing records for research ingest). She has taken training courses in this; notably from SUNY-Alfred. In June 05 she had major surgery and as of late June 06 had finished recovery from that. She does kashrut supervision from time to time. In June 09 she graduated from a coding certification course. In Nov 2010 she passed a certificate for a higher coding degree. In 2013 she passed the certification for the tumor registry coding.

Beth - In an apartment in Ramat Gan (near Tel Aviv). She does not have a roomate; she is happy about that because previous roomates (one nicknamed 'stormy', one nicknamed 'messy' didn't work out so well although they were also from angloworld). Her previous roomate was a native Israeli who was the former roomate of the daughter of a family she stayed with five years previously when she was on a post high school program in Israel (nicknamed evil-dew). She had a nice roomate in 2008-2009 but that was in Jerusalem and her job was on the Mediterranean coast. We visited Beth in late Nov 2004 while we were in Jerusalem. In the previous year Beth taught 4 classes; 3 for the municipality (one 7th, one 8th, one 10th) and 1 8th grade class for a 3rd party provider). She left her job with the Herziliah software gaming company in Nov 2010 and began work for another company in Tel Aviv in May 2011. Then began work for another company (Insightera) in 2013 and in December 2013, it was bought out by yet another company (Marketo).

Beth has her own blog at:

George - Graduated Law school in Jan 2011 took the Bar Exam in Feb 2011. In May 2011 he learned that he had passed and soon thereafter learned he had survived the 'character and fitness' screening that the Maryland Bar administers. He is to was sworn in to the Maryland Bar in mid June 2011. He started working as legal investigator and assistant lawyer for an attorney at Eastern Market in D.C. He opened his own law office in 2013. In Feb 2014, he signed a contract to provide work for another law firm.

George has beaten four (maybe more, I've lost count) traffic tickets on procedural grounds (gaming the system) or on substantive grounds (quizing the officer who issued the citation) or by luck (officer bringing the wrong notebook to court).

George's website for his law office is
