New York Jewish Week via JTA — In a boon for scholars and amateur researchers, records from Yad Vashem, Israel’s Holocaust museum, are now publicly available through JewishGen, the largest online Jewish genealogy resource of its kind.
The agreement announced Tuesday by Yad Vashem and New York’s Museum of Jewish Heritage/A Living Memorial to the Holocaust, an affiliate of JewishGen, provides easy access to millions of names commemorated in Yad Vashem’s database.
We are losing hundreds and hundreds of children going on drugs, killing themselves .
Just today a child killed himself in Williamsburg and according to a Chareidie askan, this is a going trend. This askan claims that it is far worse in Israel by those raised in Meah Shearim and by the Toldos Avram Yitzchok Chassidius. He states that the boys and girls frustrated with their restrictive lives are killing themselves. I will post an audio by this askan soon.
The Chareidie leadership is blaming this on the internet, on lack of tznees, and the smartphones. They have yet to address this and as long as they don't this will continue ..
The video below discusses the Bnei-Brak Teenagers that are roaming the streets by the thousands.
Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas terrorist organization which controls the Gaza Strip, claimed on Monday that the organization's naval unit captured "an Israeli military dolphin that was equipped (with weapons) to attack the fighter fighters of the resistance (Hamas)."
A video released by Al-Qassam Brigades showed a device bearing weapons that, according to Hamas' military wing, had been installed on the back of the captured dolphin.
The video also went over the activities of Hamas operational missions, including extracting a large number of bombs aboard a British ship that sank off the coast of Gaza.

Production of a new television series by the Kan Corporation was abruptly halted, following a mass demonstration by Charedi extremists.
The new drama, “Malach HaMashchis” (Angel of Destruction), was being filmed at a printing house in the Geula neighborhood on Tuesday. According to a report in Yisrael Hayom, dozens of extremist demonstrators lined up outside the production area, shouting “Shaygitz” and “Jewish outcasts” at the actors and crew.
Producers shut down the shoot immediately and say that they are moving production to another more amenable neighborhood.
The crew said that they feared they would be lynched by the angry mob
Police were called to the scene, and the production crew decided to halt filming and dismantle the set, despite a financial loss of tens of thousands of shekels.
The production company released the following statement:
“Due to an intense demonstration which erupted near the set today in Jerusalem, our production crew was forced to halt and evacuate the set despite the high cost incurred, because the safety and well-being of crew members is our top priority. Production will be resumed in a new location.”
I don't know who needs to hear this, but if an Indigenous person asks us not to refer to Jews as "the Tribe" we should respect that, especially given the origins of the term probably aren't what you think.

Reconstruction is based on archaeological evidence including busts, coin portraits and statuary, as well as descriptions of Alexander in historical accounts.

The Chareidim influence just went into the trash as the "non-citizens" are not going to vote the way Chareidim want!

It is proof that he wanted the Pnei Menachem as Rebbe after him (known fact).
BUT not that Reb Yaakov Aryeh can't ever be Rebbe.
He writes, that on this particular subject the decision is on the Gerer Rebbe, meaning whoever it is at the helm at the time, be it his brother the Pnei Menachem or son Reb Y aakov Arye or even Reb Shaul Alter
I don't think there is a Gerer Chusid out there that disputes the fact that the Gerer Rebbe's father Reb Simcha Bunim wanted his son to succeed him.
The Will does not make the present Rebbe R' Yaakov Aryeh the Rebbe. Chassidim are arguing that after R' Simcha Bunim was nifter the Rebbistiveh should have reverted back to the Pnei Menachem's son who is R' Shaul Alter.
But Shlomo is not the sharpest blade in the drawer! You can have a lot of money but you still cannot buy brains! The will proves nothing! Back to the civil war!
בוםםםםם!!!

Move over, mudskippers. It turns out that goldfish, well-known dwellers of water, can in fact navigate on land. Israeli researchers have found that goldfish, when properly trained with food treats and provided with a suitable platform that includes the requisite water bath, can control a vehicle.
A team of researchers at Ben-Gurion University developed what they call an FOV — a fish-operated vehicle — that is fitted with lidar, a remote sensing technology that uses pulsed laser light to collect data on the vehicle's ground location and the fish's whereabouts inside a mounted water tank. Add a computer, camera, electric motors and omni-directional wheels to give the fish control of the vehicle and voila: a fish that can "drive" a car.
Surprisingly, it doesn't take the fish a long time to learn how to drive the vehicle. They're confused at first. They don't know what's going on but they're very quick to realize that there is a correlation between their movement and the movement of the machine that they're in," said researcher Shachar Givon.
The researchers have so far taught six goldfish to pilot the vehicle. Each of them were provided around 10 driving lessons. And each time one of them reached a target set by the researchers, it was rewarded with food.
And, as is the case with humans, it turns out t
