ethnic groups interacting in one area.

Additional Calendar Information:
The last day for Kiddush Levonoh -- Iyar
One can make Kiddush Levonoh in the entire world until
Friday morning, 14 Iyar (May 30), at 6:50 A.M., according to
the Summer Clock, Israeli time. The final time in most of the
world is therefore actually the entire Thursday night. In the
far western countries Kiddush Levonoh can be said
according to the difference in time zones in comparison to
Eretz Yisroel. In the eastern countries if bedi'eved
someone did not yet make Kiddush Levonoh it is
preferable to make it on leil Shabbos according to the
difference in time zones in comparison to Eretz Yisroel than
to forfeit it altogether.
The astronomical full moon is at 5:55 A.M., fifty-five
minutes earlier than the nigud emtzo'i.
