Sun I had a gig playing at the Bar Mitzvah of Tani Polansky. He gave a siyum and read from the book Bilvovi Mishkan Evne by Rabbi Itamar Schwarts an incredible new sefer on building yourself. Rabbi Moshe Weinberger from Aish Kodesh Woodmere give a shiur on it.
It was nice to see and Bar Mitzva Boy who can understand and appreciate such a sefer.
A new Rabbi is in town his name is R. Joel Padowitz. He was running Aish Hatora in England and just made Aliya to RBS he started a Mishna Shiur in the morning at Beis Teffila and will finish the whole thing in 2 years. I started to go in he morning, he is very good, but I recently started a new job (more on that soon) so I can't make it for now. He does record it and put in online every day so perhaps I can hear it on the way to Jerusalem, and even go back to it live when things settle down a bit. If you are interested in getting though Mishnayot you can download the Shiur and some charts at http://shiurim.btya.org/MishnayosShiurim.html
We had the Hilula for the Aish Kodesh at Aish Kodesh RBS. Reb Shapiro the Rav is the nefew of Harav Kalonymus Kalman Shapiro of Piazeczna. He was the Rav of the Warsaw Getto, and a special neshoma. Shlomo Katz played guitar and sang I played with him on Keyboards and some Djembe The place was packed, Rav Shapiro and a few other people spoke we all sang danced ate and had a great time.
The Oranges from our Orange Tree are ripe! When they were bluming last tu Bishvat there were dozens of tiny little oranges, but only five made it. Next year I need to spray it with a pesticide. I wonder if I can find and Organic one. They came out beautiful very BIG. The big question was whether we can eat from them or not. The tree was planted 2 years ago before Shavuot and was one year old at the time. From before shavuot to Rosh Hashana is considered like one year. Orla is 3 years, but then the 4rth year is Neta Rivaya. Confused yet? Rav Bar Haim was in Australia so I asked Rav Saleveitchik, he said it's fine but I should redeem the fruit with some money. When Rav Bar Haim came back he said we can eat it as well. They were very tasty, they are Washington Oranges. I asked my friend Tzafrir Ronen Alav Hashalom what Oranges are like California Navel Oranges and he told me to plant a Washington Orange tree. Thanks for the great advice Tzafrir.
See how big the Orange is next to a Basket ball! HUGE!!!
Yosef by the orange tree
Just kidding, that was a mini basket ball above:)
But this really is a normal size orange to its left.
Yeuda Picking one
Uncle Moshe is back in town!
Ok the big new is Moshe Karash Elkies Brother came for his other brother and sisterinlaw, Kenny and Elinor Sheffs twin boys Bar Mitzvah. The last time he was here was 20--- years ago. We were all very excited he was coming. We picked him up at the airport.He brought a suitcase full of stuff for us. That right if you visit us and bring a suitcase full of stuff we'll pick you up at the airport too!
Moshe stayed in Shiras room, Shira stayed downstairs in my office, my office moved up to the dinning room table, couch, kitchen and bathroom. B"H for laptops. He spent some time in Yerushalayim met up with some old friends and really had a great time. Sun. we went to Kever Rachel and Mearat Hamachpala in Hevron.
Elkie and I have not been to Hevron since we made Aliya there is no bus from RBS and if you don't know how to go and get lost, you can find yourself surrounded by lots of Arabs. I said it's time we have to go. It was the sunday after Parshat Chaya Sarah and I reasoned there will be plenty of soldiers around. I printed directions from Google spoke to a friend or 2 and got the basic idea. We drove though Kiryat Arba a large city then out and into Hevron. There were lots and lots of Arabs ALL around, kids and teens in the street. It could be a bit scary for some people, B"H we were all pretty cool. We passed one Chayal with his gun among the many arabs. drove some more then as asked 2 more chayalim where it is, he pointed right to it. We parked went in met some people, davened Mincha.
Looks like a fake picture huuu??? That's the real deal!!!
It is really cool that in 45 min. we can visit the keiver of our forefathers and mothers. When we were done we went to Gavne in the Gush near Bat Ayin. That's a very nice Dairy restaurant overlooking the hills of the Gush and Beitar. They have a winery and excellent food. Thanks Moshe for treating us. You are welcome back anytime, as well as everyone in CHU"L in we can take you to Gavne too (if your treating:)
Ok now the Job no big deal. I've been looking for a job if you remember I had the one at the gym in Jerusalem that lasted about a day. Now someone called me who saw my resume and wanted to meet me in Jerusalem. If you remember I don't like the bus. This is a sales job and he wasn't opposed to me working from home eventually after I knew what to do, which was a big one for me. I had a gig the next night in Bayit Vagan at 7:00PM. I got there and set up at 4:00PM at 5:00PM I went to the interview it's in Migdal Hair (City Tower) the big tall building on King George and Ben Yehuda. They liked me and asked if I'm in on the spot. Since I do not have any other job offers, and the Guy who called me lives in RBS and said I can go with him every day, and for all I know if I said let me think about it, it may not be open the next time I speak with him, I thought quickly and said "sure". The job is from 4PM-12:00AM most of the time, selling mortgage audits on commission. Definitely an interesting concept and idea. The bottom line is I gota make money doing it. I survived the 1st week getting some leads B"H lets see what happens and if I can close some deals. The company is called Certified Mortgage Audit if you know someone in foreclosure tell them to contact me we may be able to save their house. While taking a falafel dinner break on King George I bumped into Yishai Fleisher from Kumah.org and radio show host on Arutz 7 he gave me some chizuk and wished me luck, he emailed me that he posted my story of Aliya to the Temple Mount on the Israelnationalnews.com blog check out Yishai he's great! and thinks like a real Jew.
Finally!
H1N1 To Vaccinate or not to Vaccinate. That is the question?
I have a lot to say on this topic. I usually keep this blog to things relating to Israel, however this is an exception. People believe what they want to believe. If you are considering taking or giving your children the H1N1 vaccine I HIGHLY suggest you listen to the people who are warning about the dangers of it. like the interview of Tamar Yona with Dr. Rima Laibow
Some people said to me, ohhh I'll just ask my doctor. Sorry buddy that's not good enough!
If you don't care about having more children or grandchildren, take it!
You need to understand, Doctors are compensated by the government to give vaccines. So lets say about 25% of their income comes from that, the government and FDA gives the doctors some bogus report that they commissioned stating that it's safe. Unfortunately most doctors do not have the expertise and or time to seriously research what is really in the vaccine, and most of them are really not interested in giving up 25% of their income. It's not that they intentionally want to harm you, the medical system is set up in a way that it is in THEIR best interest to give it to you and your children. They are human beings and this is human nature. You may have an honest and knowledgeable doctor who knows the truth about the H1N1 vaccine, but this is unfortunately VERY rare!
Ask your doctor if he will give the vaccine to his children??? ask him why Obama and the Vaccine manufactures wont give it to their children.
You can say to me "what do you know, your not a doctor!" correct, but I am B"H very good at finding the truth, and detecting a lie. I have listened to honest doctors, I know about the politics behind this and read a lot about it. The vaccine is being pushed by the World Health Organization which is basically a branch of the UN and have called for a reduction in the world population by like 90%! I'm sure you know how trustworthy the UN is.
The US had the same Swine flu scare in 1976 and put out propaganda that people should take the vaccine. 1 person died from the Swine flu, hundreds died from the vaccine and thousands developed neurological problems such as geon barre syndrome.
The H1N1 vaccine is much worse it contains squalene which sterilizes people (makes impotent) and thimerosal which contains mercury and has been proven to cause geon barre syndrome, autism and other problems, plus who knows what else in it. The one tested by the CDC is NOT the one going out to the public.
Great source of information:
Don't trust me, but DON'T trust the government propaganda, the media or sorry to say even your doctor.
Look into this for yourself!
Do you know about whistle blowers like Josef Moshe???
The Government and Media does NOT want you to hear what he has to say.
On Aug 13 2009 Josef Moshe and Israeli biological scientist was surrounded by a swat team in Westwood California for calling into a radio show and saying that he worked for Baxter and has evidence that the H1N1 vaccine is a bio weapon designed to kill millions.
WAKE UP!
They just passed a law in Massachusetts that if THEY (the evil ones) declare a state emergency, you must take the vaccine, or go into quarantine like (in a FEMA camp) if not you face a $1000 fine per day, and they can take away your children from you and inject them against your will.
This is the LAW in Massachusetts NOW!
In NY they want to pass a law that people in the medical field must take it. I would be quicker to quit my job and pull my children out of school if they tried to force me or my children to take take it.
Stay informed and healthy, get lots of vitamin C & D to build up your immune system, & spread this information to everyone.
