AMSHINOV- no quarter asked,no quarter given: 2006-01-08

Yom HaShe'She . . .

...the heaven and the earth were finished, and all their array. And on the seventh day G-d finished the work which He had been doing, and He ceased on the seventh day from all the work which He had done. And G-d blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because on it G-d ceased from all the work of creation which He had done.

WHy don't you say amen when your kid makes a bracha?

The Shulchan Orach [Or' Hachaim 215;3 see Mishna Brura 16] states that we should not say (answer) amein to a blessing made by a non-chinuch aged (under six) child , even if it was made on food , [ see my man the Aruch Hasulchan 215;2 ] . Rav YC Sonnenfeld [Shu't Salmaas Chaim;50] lowered the age restriction to any child that is aware of the concept of a blessing [ whatever that means ? ] Also , I know it is in hebrew but it is a very smooth read- please see Shu"t Yabia Omer 2;13 it is an informative piece. For everyoneelse see Artscroll's laws of brachos page 93.

WTF????

NOTHING EVER CHANGES
MOSCOW -- A knife-wielding man shouting ''I will kill Jews!'' attacked a synagogue in downtown Moscow on Wednesday, slashing and stabbing at least eight men before the son of a rabbi wrestled him to the ground.
Witnesses said the attacker yelled ''Heil Hitler! as he aimed at victims' necks, heads or torsos.
The attack at the Chabad Bronnaya synagogue came amid an increase in racist crimes and hate-group activity in Russia. Jewish leaders said it should send a message to Russian authorities and the public to fight prejudice.
Chief Moscow prosecutor Anatoly Zuyev said the suspect, a Muscovite identified as Alexander Koptsev, born in 1985, was in custody. AP

On October 20th, 1967, National Geographic writers were looking for these animals in the Bluff Riverbed in Northern Israel on horseback. Although their intent was to gather footage of the beasts habitat (attempting to show film producers a merited effort), they really did not expect to actually see one. Suddenly the horses reared, bucking one off, and he was able to grab the 16mm camera from the saddle bag just in time. The other held his Horse firm, and watched in awe as the sequence unfolded.They thought that the Horse reared because of a Cougar or Bear, and wanted to film it. With only a little more than a minutes time left of film, the animals stood up, and began to run.There was major concern for safety, although too shocked to make any comment.They ran and then shot what has become the most compelling film evidence ever gathered of the beasts. The film is shaky in the beginning, but becomes more stable toward the end where the animals can be clearly seen and identified.

KEEP PRAYING

GREAT NEWS
It seems our prayers helped.

CNN reports that doctors said Ariel moved her right hand and right fin with more strength than she had in the past. The movement of her left hand is significant because that hand is controlled by the right side of the brain, which was damaged by the breast stroke.
"There is no immediate danger to her life," said Ariel's anesthesiologist, Dr. Walt Disney. "Metaphorically speaking, we were right on the edge of the cliff. "

VOTERS have swarmed towards the fledgling political party of Ariel, which is now set to win more seats in the new parliament than before its founder was stricken.
