Rabbi Moshe Weiss spent much of Monday and Tuesday packing boxes with his colleagues, emptying the old Baptist church that the Yeshiva High School of the Twin Cities has called home since it swung open its doors as the area’s first school of its kind in 2006.

YU Study: DNA, Not Lifestyle, Is Key to Longevity

Jerusalem Post

Healthy centenarians lucky enough to have inherited “longevity genes” can thank their genetic makeup for their long lives. Unlike everybody else, they didn’t have to watch their diet, exercise daily or avoid alcohol to reach that age. They didn’t even have to stop smoking – although tobacco use would certainly harm their descendants.

Video: Rabbi Dr. J. Immanuel Schochet — What is Faith?


Watch this brilliant clip to learn what real faith is all about. It’s not blind belief and acceptance of information or values. Rabbi Dr. J. Immanuel Schochet illuminates the fundamental connection between faith and knowledge. True faith that is rooted in knowledge is exhibited in a person who synthesizes information and allows the logical consequences of this reality to have an affect on the way he or she lives.

Modesty Helps Women Be Friends

by Jennifer Fulwiler – NC Register

One of the things I’ve found most refreshing about religious culture is the understanding of the importance of modesty. Though each woman may have different ideas about exactly what it means to be modest, there is a general agreement that putting forth some level of conscious effort to avoid looking like a backup dancer in a Snoop Dogg video is a good thing. And it’s fascinating to see the effect that it has on women’s interactions with one another.

CROWN HEIGHTS [CHI] — Traditionally, the first Tuesday of August is known as the National Night out against Crime, a night where residents come out of their homes and together with police ‘take back the streets’ from crime.
