HOME & FAMILY POET'S CORNERJust a Bergen-Belsen Day by Ruchie Margulies Based on a true story which took place with the Bluzhever Rebbe when he was interned in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.
Good Morning
The wicked are called `dead' in their lifetime. Tzaddikim are
alive after death. What are we? Hopefully, at least somewhere
in the middle.
The following dialogue may help you sort yourself out and
live your life more fully, especially on cold winter
mornings...
The True Story Rebbetzin Reznitsky half lurched, half sank gratefully and breathlessly into the nearest seat on the bus, piled her bags and packages onto the empty seat beside her and propped her dilapidated brown, wooden cane against the wall.
A Certified Diploma The sweet chanting of small children as they recited "Torah tziva lonu Moishe" pierced the cold winter air. Thick globs of ice collected on the window in Nechtza's small house. The tiny kerosene heater that Nechtza had installed was very ineffective in its battle against the Siberian frost.
Happy Birthday Opinion is sharply divided on the subject of birthdays. In some families, they celebrate zealously every year, including a birthday party with guests; in others, the birthday passes by with hardly a mention. These latter families claim that a birthday is not a Jewish concept, seeing that the only time a birthday is mentioned in the Torah is when Pharaoh had a birthday party.

of astronomic dimensions. Initially, parents ae profoundly
shocked and pained, and react with the sinking feeling of
helplessness and broken-heartedness... First, an apology to Lori Rubabshi, to whom we omitted giving credit for a lively adaptation of "Dreidel, Dreidel." Credit is certainly due. Lori, we hope to see more of your whimsical pieces in the future. Welcome to Yated and please forgive! I guess my head was spinning...
Is It Hypothermia? Look For The "Umbles" -- Stumbles,
Mumbles, Fumbles, And Grumbles Older people who lower the thermostat to cut heating bills raise their risk of hypothermia, a potentially fatal condition in which the body's temperature drops for a prolonged period. Hypothermia is a particular problem for older people who lack proper nutrition, take certain medications, drink alcohol, and who have conditions such as arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, stroke, and Parkinson's disease.
Your Medical Questions Answered! Bulimia is another disease of young women which can be very damaging. These young women -- the typical patient -- often look of normal weight. However they binge eat and then -- usually in secret -- purge. That is, they vomit the food back, usually by sticking their fingers in their throats. Sometimes they vacillate between anorexia and bulimia.
