This paper closely examines the translation of the Hebrew word ת ה ו ם-abyss (Genesis 1:2), in two versions of the Buber-Rosenzweig Bible: In the first edition of Die Schrift published 1926 the abyss is translated as "Abgrund". However, after Rosenzweig's death, the "Abgrund" is erased by Buber and replaced in later versions (1930/1952/1962) by the rather odd word "Urwirbel." This paper reflects on the transition from "Abgrund" to "Urwirbel" and demonstrates the profound rootedness of Buber and Rosenzweig in the German philosophical vocabulary of the early twentieth century. It shows how the conversion from "Abgrund" to "Urwirbel" crystalized a moment in German-Jewish thought, a historical meeting point in the depths of the abyss between the German and the Hebrew languages. The encounter was covered by the course of history but deserves to be revisited and reinterpreted.

This paper evaluates the utilization of Ethiopian lowland bamboo or Oxytenanthera abyssinica to manufacture a particleboard. Two boards were tested; one of the boards was fully manufactured from bamboo and the other one was taken from market, which is mostly utilized by those household factories and other wood product manufacturers who use particleboard, fully manufactured from Eucalyptus tree. The particles were bonded using 10% urea formaldehyde. Compression tests were conducted for the two types of particleboards as per Japanese Industrial standard (JIS A 5908) both under wet and dry conditions. A total number of four samples were taken from each type and tested along the width and length on HUALONG universal testing machine with a loading rate of 10mm/min. During the test the upper surfaces of the specimens were under compression and the lower sides were under tension. The results from both tests have shown that the lowland bamboo can be a good candidate for particleboard manufa...
