& COMMENT
Be Not Proud of Death
The European Union has long urged the Palestinians to halt
terrorist suicide attacks within the Green Line and they are
deeply involved in recent meetings between the Fatah and the
Hamas in Cairo to arrive at some agreement to this effect.
Attention Deficiency and Hyperactivity Disorder
by Chaim Walder
A few weeks ago I was at a particularly loud wedding. You
find an open seat right next to one of the orchestra's
speakers and you know the night is bound to end with a
splitting headache if this keeps up.
A Middos Workshop: Cooling Down the Angry Fires
Based on Shiurim of Rav Dovid Siegel
Imagine you are a school principal, presiding over thirty
teachers. Despite repeated reprimands, a certain teacher
continues to arrive late every day. Or you are a loyal patron
of the local greengrocer, where you have ordered for years.
For the last two weeks, he has been sending you bruised
apples and rotting lettuce. Or you are a conscientious
parent, and little Shmuely keeps escaping your hand and
running into the street.
Self-Sufficiency - Histapkus
by Rav Yerachmiel Kram
"And He give me bread to eat and a garment to wear..."
(Bereishis 28:20)
In his request, Yaakov Ovinu enumerates the purpose of the
bread and the clothing. He stresses that his wish for bread
is to eat and for clothing to be worn. This is in spite of
the fact that it seems so obvious and thus superfluous -- for
why else would a person want bread, if not to consume it? And
what can he do with another garment if he does not need to
wear it?
