This winter’s second Snow

After some interesting weather we had last week where temperatures reached 60 degrees Fahrenheit, this Motzoai Shabbos the real feel temp dropped into the single digits! A thin snow came down in torrents, the blizzard type which doesn’t stick well, and combined with wind gusts of up to 40 mph the snow drift was made everything look white.

For today real feel temps are in the single digits so make sure to bundle up and stay safe and warm.

The Kabalah of Intimacy – Chabad of the Valley

Motzoei-shabos Vayechi . Jan 14 2006, Baring fruit to the united efforts of Rabbi Joshua B. Gordan (Head Shliach of the Valley) along with Rabbis Modechai Einbinder, Yossi Malka and Yochonon Beitelman, the Motzoai Shabbos, Melaveh Malka event – featuring Rabbi YY Jacobson as keynote speaker accompanied by Chabad singer Benny Friedman – the event culminated in a measure of success which was beyond expectancy.

Rabbi Y.Y. Jacobson received a most enthusiastic and accepting round of applause from the attending crowed consisting of k’h 350 people, whose emotions, throughout the duration of the two hour lecture, have been taken on an undecisive wild and drastic journey. His lecture, titled ‘The Kabalah of Intimacy’ was synchronously emotional, funny, and insightful.

To Preseve Jewish Lives…

Not since WW2, have we encountered as capable and dangerous Jewish person to the Jewish people as Ariel Sharon. Without exaggeration, Sharon has captured the hearts and minds of Jews throughout the world, even before the recent strokes. He has masterfully reversed his cursed image as a murderer and killer at the Sabra and Shatilla massacres. President Bush recently called him a “man of courage and peace”. Just a few years ago, those words would have been the last words on the lips of Bush and the overwhelming majority of the nations who fought against Sharon’s election, fearing that Sharon would only be a war hawk and exacerbater of the fires burning in the Middle East.

Whether one is an admirer of Sharon or not, one must admit that he has an almost hypnotic control over the masses of worldwide Jews. Most people are so thirsty for a strong leader, (even more so in the socialist temperate climate of Israel), that they implicitly place their trust and own personal responsibility on the shoulders of someone as confident as Sharon. He has hood-winked Jews that he knows what is best and has proven that he has the power to carry out his directives without fear.
