It's Rosh Hashanah

I'd like to wish all of my Jewish friends a Happy New Year. And I'd like to say I'm sorry to everybody I might have offended this past year. According to Jewish tradition, between Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement, God judges all people. He inscribes everybody's name in either the Book of Life or the Book of Death. Repentence, charity and prayer can reverse negative decrees. It's a custom of Jewish people to appologize to those they have wronged during this holiday season. Since I consider myself a contributing member of the education blogosphere it's quite possible that I have inadvertantly offended somebody. If I have I appologize.
