About

About: "TheWritersCafe.org was relatively unknown just last winter and somewhere around the early spring of this year just a few short months ago, it jumped onto the Alexa ratings with a 20M rating. I was almsot embarrassed to be happy knowing that globally there were 20 Million other websites (globally) that were more popular than this one!

Yet to be rated gave me the push I needed, soon the rating came down to 18M then 12M, and I kept feeling prouder and prouder. Then it just kept leaping better and better, 6M, 4M. Then it kind of hovered for a while."

Israeli company hoping to ride new blank check wave - Globes: "In 2007, just before the credit crisis broke, 66 blank check companies (special purpose acquisition companies, or SPACs) raised a total of $12.1 billion on the US capital market. In 2009, when the markets crashed, blank check offerings al but disappeared: one solitary company raised $36 million.

Lamed Vav Tzadikim « TheWritersCafe.org

Lamed Vav Tzadikim « TheWritersCafe.org: "the numerical value of 36, may indeed be secondary to understanding the meaning of the shape of the Hebrew letters. Lamed is distinct in that it is the only Hebrew letter that goes above the guideline. Kabbalistically this can be explained to be the letter that taps into shemayim (heaven) to capture a creation or an idea. However capturing an idea alone might not be enough, and that is where the Vav comes in. The straight line from the top to the bottom which can be thought of to be the essence of the Vav, is what is needed to take an idea who’s origin is in Shemayim, and bring it down to the world where it van be revealed, understood, and acted upon."

Yom Kippur- Repairing our past, preparing for our future. « TheWritersCafe.org

Yom Kippur- Repairing our past, preparing for our future. « TheWritersCafe.org: "Change is one of the charged terms. Generally there is a substantial resistance to any sort of change regardless of if it can be determined to be for better or worse. However the ability to embrace change is something which was instilled in me somehow from when I was very young. The opposite of change is the status quo. There is a always a very strong ingrained tendency to keep things going the way they are, and the way they have been for quite some time.

However others are more willing to see the potential in some novel concept or idea."

The video below describes how the untrained teenagers, young adults, even women and children would rather face death by the force of their aggressors, then willingly comply with their systematic annihilation by the hands of the evil enemy of the Jewish people, the Nazi regime."

TheWritersCafe.org: "the leader of our group was explaining in rather fine detail, that the arc which served to carry the leucos (tablets) was not made of one piece of wood that was covered with gold on the inside and outside.

Rather the arc or Aron was made of three separate pieces that nested into each other. The amazing thought that occurred to me at the time, that the construction of the Aron haKodesh (Holy Arc) was similar in the way that the embryo develops from three primary germ layers, which is the first significant aspect of, when the primordial or undifferentiated cells, beging to become different, and start building the three dimensional structure of living things."

Leave a little, Kedoshim 19:9 Gleanings | ChaiDomains.com

Leave a little, Kedoshim 19:9 Gleanings | ChaiDomains.com: "east consider the following sentence of Torah which Kedoshim 19:10 which explains ” not to pick the undeveloped twigs nor gather the fallen fruit but to leave them for the poor and the convert” Hashem reminds us in this same pusek (sentence of Torah) that He is Hashem our G-d. (Our esteemed seder hostess for ths 1st Seder night, told us that this phrase is often used in Torah pesukim that are either difficult to keep or important.

Once again the common explanation is that these things are left for the poor (like charity or tzedaka) and explanations regarding how Ruth (the famous convert that we read about on Shavuos) was able to survive because of the kindness of Boaz who was meticulous in this Mitzvah (Torah commandment). Ruth because of her dedication over and beyond expectations was to have a King descend from her, David Hamelech. (Yes the same David who conquered Goliath of the Davidic Dynasty who’s lineage our future Moshiach is suppose to descend form)."

The 9-11 Diary: Hitler Vs. Osama - News - Chabad Lubavitch World Headquarters

The 9-11 Diary: Hitler Vs. Osama - News - Chabad Lubavitch World Headquarters: "To Change the World  

"If so," asks the Talmud, "the Torah could have written only 'scales,' without having to also write 'fins'." On a deeper level, the Talmud is asking, why is it important to emphasize the need for fins in developing a "kosher" human being? Why does an emphasis on ambition constitute part of a moral and "kosher" education? Why not just focus on integrity and ethics?   

The Talmud's answer is marvelous: "This is so that 'Torah be increased and made great.'" This means that our spiritual mission consists not only of professing integrity and morality, but also of developing our full potential materially and spiritually. G-d wants us to be good; but He also wants us to be successful and shine; to utilize all of our talents and resources to transform the landscape of our planet into an abode for the Divine; to make the Torah "great and large.""

Frum Find The Place To Find All Things Frum (Blog): Larger List Yeshiva or Private Jewish Day Schools

Frum Find The Place To Find All Things Frum (Blog): Larger List Yeshiva or Private Jewish Day Schools: "Would I feel comfortable to send my daughter to a Yeshiva High School which offers "mixed" instruction in general studies? The answer is a definite no. So while I may have included both conservative Yeshiva High Schools as well as those offering "mixed" general studies classes, it is by no means my intent to state they are "frum".

Indeed while clearly our Rabbis have already concluded that the "conservative movement" may have been a "major setback" for Torah observance; it is not my place to likewise label schools that offer "mixed general studies" while still claiming orthodox status to be abything other than frum. I simply feel that after being in the Yeshiva system for 5 years in an "all girls school that 'was not" a Beis Yaakov school, yet did not offer mixed classes, that it would be be far from ideal if my daughter would now be "compelled to attend such a school" simply because a proper (non-mixed) Yeshiva High School could not be located."

Frum Find The Place To Find All Things Frum (Blog): About Rabbi Ginsburgh « The Wonders of Your Torah

Frum Find The Place To Find All Things Frum (Blog): About Rabbi Ginsburgh « The Wonders of Your Torah: "About Rabbi Ginsburgh « The Wonders of Your Torah: "Rabbi Ginsburgh is one of our generation’s most respected authorities on Jewish Mysticism. He is acknowledged by both the religious and academic communities as an integrator of the mystical tradition as has not been seen in Judaism for many generations. Every class or lecture that he delivers is a tour-de-force of powerful insight, intellect, and creativity. Hundreds of spiritual leaders view him as their mentor and teacher and his impact on Torah scholarship and Jewish spirituality increases from day to day.

Rabbi Ginsburgh currently produces enough material for publishing a full-length book every month. After years of searching for the right way to make his original teachings available to the public, we have opted to use wordpress as a platform. All the posts on this site are written by him. They represent only a small portion of his daily output. To follow Rabbi Ginsburgh’s teachings properly, please see the additional sites in our links section.""

Jewish view of Modesty, dress, clothing

Jewish view of Modesty, dress, clothing: "today view one another. For all of us, it is practically impossible not to identify a person with his or her outside.

To see how true this is, think of someone close to you whom you haven't seen for some time. Now imagine running into her and discovering that she's dyed her hair and completely restyled it, gained 100 pounds, and undergone cosmetic surgery which has radically changed her features. It's probably difficult for you to internalize the fact she is still the same person. We want to identify one another by our inner selves, but the ability eludes us.

Originally, when they saw body and soul as one, man and woman had been naked and unashamed. Now, for the first time, they instinctively felt the need to put something on."

Frum Find The Place To Find All Things Frum (Blog): Parshat Ki Tavo: The Secret of the Altar at Mt. Eval

Frum Find The Place To Find All Things Frum (Blog): Parshat Ki Tavo: The Secret of the Altar at Mt. Eval: "Parshat Ki Tavo: The Secret of the Altar at Mt. Eval
Parshat Ki Tavo: The Secret of the Altar at Mt. Eval: "are shin, yud, and dalet, which permute to form one of God's Names, pronounced: Shakai (but spelled: shin, dalet, yud). The numerical value of "plaster" (סיד) is 314, the same as "the field" (השדה). Hence, we see that the plastered altar of stones on Mount Eval alludes to the tree of the field. As we learned in our meditation on the Torah portion of Shoftim, the tree of the field represents man. The phrase "tree of the field" equals the "pleasure and serenity of the Almighty," noam Shakai.  In our context, the word noam means the pleasure of the Torah itself, whose "ways are ways of pleasantness." This pleasantness now manifests on the mountain of the curse in this miraculous altar.

Transforming the Curse into Joy

The image of the altar of stones on Mount Eval is the culmination of our meditations on the Torah portions of  Ekev, Re'eh and Shoftim."

Jewish view of Modesty, dress, clothing

Jewish view of Modesty, dress, clothing: "infinite number of ways. Upon meeting you for the first time, people may immediately see "stocky build" or "curly hair." After spending a bit of time with you, they may notice "artistic" or "athletic." After getting to know you, they may be able to see you as "emotionally complex" or "a highly abstract thinker." And just as others can view you on different planes, so, too, there are any number of ways in which you can view yourself.

Tzniut begins with looking past your more superficial layers and seeing who, on the deepest level, you are capable of being. Tzniut then means gradually learning how to convey an important message to others -- and instilling it in yourself.

The message that tzniut asks you to project is "internality": that of all the parts of you, it is your innermost self by which you want to be defined. In order to convey this message, you must know when and how to reveal your body, your abilities, and everything else that makes you up, so that these don't hide but instead express who you really are. The challenge of tzniut is to project every aspect of yourself in such a way that it draws the focus to your true identity."

A Jewish View on Gender Differences | Men and Women

A Jewish View on Gender Differences | Men and Women: "God created the man in His image; in the image of God He created him, male and female He created them. And God blessed them. (Genesis 1:27-28)

Why “them”? This was before the creation of Eve!

The Jewish Oral Tradition provides us with a fascinating insight into this grammatical oddity. The first human, it tells us, was really an androgynous being, both male and female in one body, sophisticated and self-sufficient.

But if God had created such a complete human being, why the later separation into two parts, into Adam and Eve?

The answer given is that God did not want this first human creation to be alone, for it would then possess an illusion of self-sufficiency. Note that there is no word for “independence” in classical Hebrew. (What we use now, atzma’ut, is of modern vintage.) The concept of independence doesn’t exist in Jewish tradition. Aside from God, nothing and no one is really independent. Since we are supposed to ingrain into ourselves that God is the source of everything, self-sufficiency would have been a spiritual defeat."

Although Yom Kippur is an intense holiday it is nevertheless viewed as a happy day. Why? Because if one has observed the holiday properly by the end of Yom Kippur they will have made peace with others and with God."

www.RabbiJosh.com

www.RabbiJosh.com: " Rashi argues for the existence of two arks, a view which, among other things, emphasizes that that which is holy cannot go out to war–death being the antithesis of the Holy of Holies. Ramban likewise maintains that the ark could not go out to war, but he goes a different route, saying that there was never a second ark. The ark mentioned here by Moses is a temporary ark, but bears a continuity of relationship with the ark that would ultimately be created by Bezalel and put in the Holy of Holies."

Frum Find The Place To Find All Things Frum (Blog): New school on the block - The Jewish Standard

Frum Find The Place To Find All Things Frum (Blog): New school on the block - The Jewish Standard: "The Jewish Standard
New school on the block - The Jewish Standard: "Amid a turbulent economy, an increasing number of day-school parents are suffering sleepless nights wondering how to scrape up enough money to cover tuition fees of $15,000 or more per child. Some parents are even opting out of day schools altogether.

Lauren Ariev Gellman understands their predicament. As the mother of three elementary-school-aged children, she was often frustrated by the high cost of her children’s day school and the relatively mediocre education it offered.

Instead of complaining, Gellman, of Highland Park, sought a solution. Her response to the “yeshiva tuition crisis” is the Pre-Collegiate Learning Center of New Jersey for eighth through 12th-graders, which will open at the East Brunswick Jewish Center in September.

The nondenominational Jewish school will offer a full curriculum of general and Judaic studies, including many self-paced individual-learning opportunities. The annual tuition, in contrast to many area Jewish high schools that cost upward of $20,000, will be $5,000.""

New Day School Alternatives Set For Fall In N.J. | The Jewish Week

New Day School Alternatives Set For Fall In N.J. | The Jewish Week: "The Modern Orthodox school, which will open with a kindergarten and first grade, adding more grades each year, is not the only (or even the cheapest) low-cost day school starting in New Jersey. Just 40 miles away in East Brunswick, the Pre-Collegiate Learning Center of New Jersey — a pluralistic Jewish high school slated to open this fall — will charge just $5,000 a year, a fraction of the tuition at most private high schools. Meanwhile, a planning group in Teaneck is working to establish a low-cost yeshiva that would open in September 2012."

Does looking forward mean we never look back?
The other day during our usual Torah learning we were going over the Hagaddah when we got up to the part where we list the plagues and remove a drop of wine from our cups for each plague. As one of the members of our chevurah (friends who learn together, specifically Torah) made the actions associated with removing a drop of wine from the cup as he stated each plague. "

In addition, there are other parts of our Torah (separate from the 5 books of Moshe) which are still considered Torah. Something I always enjoy doing is to find some novel interpretation of our Holy Torah and share it with others either verbally or via this website."

Ask the Rabbi, JewishAnswers.org: " . . there is so much more to this; the kosher food laws exist to ensure the good treatment of the animals we eat, and that the human beings who follow the laws will behave as human beings ought, as G’d’s stewards over this planet, as the elect of His Creation, and not just as fellow animals, competing like dogs for good eats. The only kosher land animals are the animals that can’t smell blood, or death, that don’t mind being herded, and that aren’t smart, like a pig or dog or rat or cat, or a parrot, or a dolphin or a porpoise, and so won’t see death coming"

Rabbis-Notebook - Shoftim - Torah.org

Rabbis-Notebook - Shoftim - Torah.org: "t G-d judged, condemned, and punished the nation using a scale of justice calibrated to that generation's potential. Although only Achan transgressed G-d's law the entire nation shared the blame. The justification for doing so (while not exempting Achan of blame) was due to the power and influence that the environment of the nation should have had upon Achan. Had the entire nation behaved in a way that expressed total abhorrence to transgressing G-d's law Achan would not have taken from the forbidden wealth of Yericho. For some reason the nation as a whole was not 100% committed to G-d's definition of right and wrong, good and evil; therefore, the entire nation was punished because of an individual's transgression.

HaRav Ariel Bar Tzadok

HaRav Ariel Bar Tzadok: "have Kabbalah without Halakha (Jewish Law). This would be akin to a soul without a body. This is what we call a ghost. There are many �Kabbalah� cults operating today and HaRav Bar Tzadok still publicly speaks out to set the record straight by providing accurate and correct information in this area.

This is why our website was named �Kosher Torah,� to serve as a source for practical and realistic teachings that strip away the hype and cultish garments of mysticism and to provide authentic, legitimate, grounded teachings that emancipate the soul to see the sanity and sheer simple wisdom of the Torah.

While the Yeshiva began as a Sephardic institute placing emphasis on the Torah teachings of the great Sages of this community, we have found this to be rather limiting. Therefore, KosherTorah includes the teachings of all schools of �kosher� Torah, regardless of their ethnic origins. HaRav Bar Tzadok will often quote RaMBaM alongside the Ba�al Shem Tov and the Ben Ish Hai alongside the Hafetz Hayim. All Torah that is good, proper and true are welcome here."

Students, 'experts' hold social justice ... JPost - National News

Students, 'experts' hold social justice ... JPost - National News: An “alternative team of experts” has vowed to work to create a better and more just Israeli society and economy, during a press conference on Monday in which they announced the launch of their work.

Billed as an alternative to the 22-member subcommittee headed by Professor Manuel Trajtenberg appointed by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu last week, the team of experts includes over 60 academics, economists, and public leaders who will work independently to find solutions to the social issues facing Israel.

The Open Siddur Project

The Open Siddur Project: The Open Siddur Project is building it, online, on the web: a collaborative digital-to-print publishing application where you can make your own siddur, share your work, and adopt, adapt, and redistribute work shared by others — work intended for creative reuse and inclusion in new siddurim and related works of Jewish spiritual practice.

Imagine a social network focused on publishing built around privacy, collaboration, and a public database and digital library of Jewish liturgy in a format that can easily show historical variations and changes across Jewish traditions, manuscripts, and facsimile editions

Basic Jewish Concepts

This Channel or BlogSpot is being developed as a website specifically to provide an easily accessible source of many of the fundamental Jewish concepts which while they may be considered elementary to those who very learned, they may not be universally known, understood or appreciated by the majority of the Jewish people who are not religious.

Basic Jewish Concepts- By Sand Cloud -(A nomdeplum.org, for A Website Developer Who Perhaps has learned "too much" about  how "The overseers of all Websites" have somehow managed to create penalties for individuals who own and develop many virtual properties or websites, or channels on the World Wide Web.



Nomdeplum.org is the registered domain of the developer of these BlogSpot Channels, and currently is the registered owner of over 250 domains, in various state of development. There are many categories and values for these domains some of them are being developed while others are being planned. Some are also for sale as well.

I found the photo from the above BlogSpot link. It seems to be an equitable way to share. In other words, I like the picture which I found by doing a google search, however its unclear to whom the photo belongs. Therefore sharing a link to the website which I found the photo seems to be the proper thing to do.

[ There is some question, regarding this however, it does seem that there is a general movement towards sharing images. The question of course arises when asking, how do know that the blog that 1st published this image indeed has the right to use it. ]



The creator of this Blog sometime feels as if he has indeed gone a bit over-board as in having too many varied places (or Channels) to publish his works or even share his collections from other writers on the web. However when I do start blogging or producing my own originally developed writing, which may be based on other sources, it then becomes important to publish the findings or results in the right place, instead of diluting the focus of sometimes closely related websites which do not directly match the stated purpose.

Always multi-tasking has its downside, as does always increasing one's numbers of Channels, websites, or domains. In simple terminology a website, domain, or a blog become like a hungry mouth to feed. As one adds to their holdings they then have to realize an old stale website, without new content, rapidly becomes yesterday's new.

I would love to go on, with this because I do love analogies or metaphors epecially when they are borrowed from the field of biology or nature.
