News Regarding Holocaust Survivor Benefits

Germany Extends Pensions for Holocaust Survivors - Jewish World - News - Arutz Sheva

The German Parliament unanimously approved a measure extending pension payments for over 40,000 Holocaust survivors Thursday, allowing them retroactive benefits from as far back as 1997.  The Jewish Claims Conference, which helped negotiate the deal with the government, praised the deal as a “long-delayed measure of justice” to former laborers in German ghettos.  According to the Conference, the survivors are entitled to German Social Security for Work in Ghettos, for laboring "voluntarily" and for having received some form of remuneration during their time in Nazi-era ghettos.

Lamed Vav | Gaga For God: "Just as a seed has no use or value until it is planted in the earth, so to the light of the infinite must reach our finite world (Malchut) so that it can be manifest and have some effect or action. We as G-d fearing Jews do not even say. or write the 4 letter name of Hashem which has the gematria (numeric value) of 26"

(99) Yom Tov Glaser

(99) Yom Tov Glaser: "for us all to "accept" someone's essence. The idea being their "essence" is who they truly are. I believe that these days there is a great deal of hatred amongst groups, within communities, and nations. I believe I have heard somewhere that it was "hatred for no reason" that was the cause of the destruction of the 2nd Holy Temple? If one group, community, or nation specifically defines themselves as hating another group, community or nation, then I would think it would be extremely difficult fot the "hated" group, to like the other group. So consider this problem, if group X, exists simply to destroy group Y- (for no particular reason) how can group Y "transcend the natural reciprocal hatred" and not allow themselves simply to hate group X? Setting this up as an equation works"

Google Voice-Fail: "News: New Direction
So now that Google Voice is no longer invitation-only, I went ahead and created a new account just for this blog. Consider it a social experiment, I guess. So now I have a Google Voice number that exists solely for the purpose of people leaving messages to be posted here. That number is 803-386-9184. (Yes, that's a South Carolina number. That is, after all, where I live and where this started.) So feel free to call, drunk dial, distribute, etc. The more voice mails, the better!"

Tuesday July, 15 2008: "Now, I’m a marketing guy, remember that, so don’t get me wrong, I’m not simply referring to crisp financial forecasting and reporting. You can and probably should hire that stuff done.
I’m talking about something more basic than that, something more closely related to marketing.
Uneasiness with money shows up in under pricing your products and services
Uneasiness with money shows up in failing to talk about payment expectations with customers

Tzaddik Magazine

Tzaddik Magazine: "This is the essential message of Chanukah, and it is a completely new concept having nothing to do with what transpires during the regular annual cycle. Chanukah draws its power from a place far beyond our conception, infusing us with such great hope, despite our inability to see the “light at the end of the tunnel.” This gives us a point of faith from which to draw, infusing us with a spirit of life. The light of Chanukah is a completely different type of light, since its source is higher than the seven days of creation. "

Some individuals are just fond of writing their emotions and thoughts out. Instead of manually writing them in a piece of paper or a diary journal, writing them online can even help others to know the writer better.

Certain individuals consider blogging as a hobby. As a result, they write about practically everything; things they encounter, emotions they feel, and random thoughts during the day

The final though I had, which was beautiful in its utter simplicity, is this.

There is really no reason to be amazed, because both the frog, and the chickens embryos which we studied carefully and in fine detail under the microscope, had much in common with our Aron HaKodesh, in that they both were designed by G-d."

Foundation Stone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "The Radbaz is convinced that “under the dome on the Temple Mount, which the Arabs call El-Sakhrah, without a doubt is the location of the Foundation Stone”.[2] The Travels of Rabbi Petachiah of Ratisbon,[3] c.1180, The Travels of Benjamin of Tudela[4] and The Travels of the Student of the Ramban all equally state that 'on the Temple Mount stands a beautiful sanctuary which an Arab king built long ago, over the place of the Temple sanctuary and courtyard”."

Religious Jewish scholars have discussed the precise location of the rock."

While a Tzadik (like Bezalel, who stands in the shadow of G-d, understands that he must look forward and back, up and down, side to side, bending over backwards to find the redeeming qualities of goodness even in something that might appear as bad."

Tzadikim Nistarim Summary | BookRags.com: "The lamed-vavniks, scattered as they are throughout the Diaspora, have no acquaintance with one another. On very rare occasions, one of them is 'discovered' by accident, in which case the secret of their identity must not be disclosed. The lamed-vavniks do not themselves know that they are one of the 36. In fact, tradition has it that should a person claim to be one of the 36, that is proof positive that he is certainly not one."
