Take a Break And Break Through

Everyone needs a break once in a while.

Yet for women who attend the popular Kabbalah of Life women’s weekends, their break is not just a time to get away from busy schedules, relax in beautiful surroundings and take a refreshing swim in a hilltop pool.

Rubashkin Dispute Highlights Faith Issue

By Jens Manuel Krogstad for the Des Moines Register

WATERLOO, IA — Each morning before he prays in his jail cell, Sholom Rubashkin wraps a thin black band from his forearm to his fingertips, and he wraps another band around his head.

It was the leather straps and a prayer shawl – all viewed as potential weapons – that caused the Black Hawk County sheriff last week to deem Rubashkin’s religious needs too dangerous for the local jail, county officials and Rubashkin’s rabbi said.

Op-Ed: Nosson, My Little Brother

by Yosef Katzman

Sitting Shiva at the Deitsch’s.

I’m hurt, I’m shocked; I’m devastated, I have a new hole in my heart

As I’m struggling with my anger and sadness of Nossons tragic passing, I reflect on life’s journey alongside the Deitsches.

It starts with my very youth, in 1963. We moved onto Crown Street, right across the street of the Deitsches. With Reb Sholom and his wife Mirel, and their wonderful six children.

I remember being somewhat envious of the Deitsches. Reb Sholom was a man in his forties, and he had both his parents. Something that we, the first post holocaust generation, were mostly not privileged to have. My father A”h lost both his parents to famine in Samarkand in the early forties, and by the time he was Bar-Mitzvah, he was fully orphaned. I had no paternal grandparents.
