RABBI’S MESSAGE FINDING THE BALANCE
Recently I was asked about the origin of throwing candy in the synagogue for an aufruf: throwing candy at the groom on the Shabbat prior to his wedding. Superficial research resulted in discovering that there is no origin for this custom. I say superficial because the results of my endeavor made it clear that it was worthless pursuing it in greater depth. In an earlier period of Jewish history there is a record of throwing fruit on Simchat Torah. The fruit involved might have been raisins and the like. And it was thrown outside of the synagogue itself, possibly even from the rooftop of the synagogue. Later it was done inside but I can assure you that they were talking about a period when there was no fine carpeting or good furniture in the sanctuary. Perhaps the custom of throwing candy for a groom was an outgrowth of the Simchat Torah festivities.
In the history of our synagogue, once upon a time there was a custom on Simchat Torah to give all the children flags, apples, and Hershey bars. One year an incident occurred with apples as one teenager decided to go outside of the synagogue and started throwing apples at passing cars on Stirling Road. This left us with a dilemma and in our response we decided to keep the teenager and get rid of the apples. There was no discussion about discipline or parenting. It was just make the choice. The following year we abandoned dispensing Hershey bars as the melee of children grabbing the sweets was quite unbearable. So now we are left with flags. And even that comes under debate.
From Simchat Torah to an aufruf transcends centuries and originates in Europe in the Ashkenazic world. Throwing candy at bar mitzvah boys is a recent phenomenon that did not exist back in Europe. I can only say that even the most superficial research can reveal some curiosities. In one community in Europe in the 17th century the synagogue and community issued a ban on fireworks in the synagogue. I don’t even want to think about what was happening in that community. There was also some humor involved in this research as I discovered one incident that occurred in modern America where a woman’s aim was predictably considered a wild pitch. The errant throw hit a fire sprinkler head in the sanctuary and it went off. The bar mitzvah boy, gabbaim, congregants, Torah Scroll, carpeting and furniture were immediately dampened by the rainy season beginning inside the sanctuary. In one nursing home there was a very lovely idea of bringing a bar mitzvah celebration into the small sanctuary of a Jewish nursing home. The residents, many of whom were in wheelchairs, were brought in, and when the boy got his aliyah they all threw marshmallows in his direction.
As a result of recent errant throws, or maybe over the plate fast balls that were aimed at the bar mitzvah boy, there was a tongue-in-cheek suggestion of buying a special bar mitzvah football helmet for bar mitzvah boys to wear during Young Israel of Hollywood bar mitzvah Shabbat celebrations. Truth be stated, it’s not that bad, but still control has to be maintained. It is true that more people get hurt dancing at a wedding but that’s a different subject.
It is worthwhile to quote from a Sephardic minyan policy when they state in writing the following: “It is customary to throw sweet, soft candies at the feet of the bar mitzvah boy after he has finished reading the blessings and the Haftorah as a sign and hope for good blessings. We kindly request that those who throw candies refrain from throwing candies at anyone or anything other than at the feet of the bar mitzvah boy in the spirit of celebrating the bar mitzvah.” You can see from the language being used that the discussion on this matter is pretty widespread. Several kosher candy companies offer and suggest the Sunkist Fruit Gems. I kid you not; they are seemingly the preferred item for bar mitzvah and aufruf candy throwing as they are soft. Another suggestion is that the candy be given to the women and not to any men to throw, being that they are further away and their fastballs are not clocked at the same speed as the male pitchers.
What this boils down to is a discussion of proper respect for the sanctity of the synagogue. Needless to say in Germany none of this would take place as the rigidity of the Yekke community is renowned and most proper in understanding and emphasizing the sanctity in the synagogue itself. Synagogues like ours are not exactly ready for a German-Jewish rigid takeover, yet we have to be upgrading our sense of mini-Mikdash, understanding that our synagogue is a Beit HaMikdash in miniature. There is a requirement of proper sanctity for the sanctuary and the synagogue. Consequently I understand that this upgrade needs to be balanced by the desire that we have to make the synagogue warm and fuzzy. We do want children to enjoy the synagogue experience. That’s why we have established youth programs, junior congregation, the youth minyan, the teen minyan. All of these synagogue endeavors on Shabbat morning are warmly embraced by rabbis and lay leadership in order to make this synagogue into the religious and cultural center of our Jewish community. We want to be proper God-fearing Jews who keep Torah and mitzvot and enhance the sanctity of our establishment within the boundaries of halachah, at the same time making a welcoming, warm atmosphere especially for these lifecycle events such as aufruf and bar mitzvah. It is this balance that we seek but we don’t always hit the mark, pun intended.
In summation, I am not opposed to throwing candy. But I am more inclined to embrace the quotation from the Sephardic minyan. There should never be an attempt to throw hard and aim at somebody. We throw these items of sweetness to symbolize a brachah of happiness to the Baalei Simcha. There should be no intent for any other purpose. Aiming at the feet, tossing it over the mechitza, allowing the children to collect their fair share of the sweets, sing songs of the simcha, and then after a couple of minutes of this form of joyous recess, we should quickly regroup and allow the continuation of religious service within the proper decorum that we are supposed to maintain for davening and for a place of sanctity. May it all be L’Sheim Shamayim, for the sake of Heaven.

PRESIDENT
Today in davening I had a most serious discussion with G-d. I think it was supposed to stay private, but I am going to share it with you, because I believe it’s important. I asked our Almighty Father in Heaven “what was He thinking”? Why is He allowing our brothers and sisters in Israel to be murdered and terrorized? I told him “There is no sense to this violence, our blood brutally smeared by our enemies. It is unacceptable and it has to stop!” “How could He have created a world that is so clearly infected with anti-Jewish sentiment that common sense doesn’t apply when world leaders and reporters judge us?” I asked “that this mess get straighten out, and now!” I am pretty sure He heard me; I just don’t know what he’s planning on doing about it.
My mind drifted to an early childhood memory; on a sunny afternoon in a secluded spot in my back yard, I stood there praying. I don’t remember what I was asking for; it was probably something trivial like passing a test. But I remember vividly that I knew G-d was listening to me. I was convinced that if I put enough feeling into my requests He would hear and couldn’t possibly deny me.
Eventually we grow disappointed that our prayers aren’t heard or that the answer was “no”. Our blissful naivety yields to jaded realism that our prayers come with no guarantees. Let’s face it; it takes a serious life event for most of us remember what it’s like just to bare our soles and ask from our hearts for the things we need and care about.
The incredible thing is that when life sends you that moment of inspiration and you connect with G-d, it’s the same conversation you started a lifetime ago. Back then you may have been praying for your team to win, a new toy, or that your parents would raise your allowance. Now, your priorities may have changed, but your relationship with G-d has not. He’s right there listening and waiting for you to pick up where you left off.
Because up there, somewhere, there is a basin of tears, spilled from thousands of years’ worth of broken souls. Highs and lows glistening, brimming with prayers from the heart. The spontaneous ones, the halfhearted ones. The ones whispered on the way to work, the ones offered up with utmost sincerity. And one day, please G-d very soon, the very last tear will enter and in the blink of an eye redemption will come. It won’t be my prayers alone, it won’t be just yours, it will be all of ours together.
Maish Staiman President
SISTERHOOD Chodesh Kislev begins this month, mid-month, though Chanukah does not fall until early December. Instead of discussing the nature of Chanukah at this point, we would like to take the time to examine the nature of Rosh Chodesh, as it relates to the story of Chanukah. According to the Shem MiShmuel, before the Chanukah revolt, the Greeks had banned the observance of Shabbos, bris milah and the celebration of Rosh Chodesh. While the first two make sense in the Greeks’ plans to eradicate Torah practice, the third injunction, the prohibition against Rosh Chodesh seems peculiar. The moon follows the same path every month with no human interference. Why was the celebration of Rosh Chodesh something that the Greeks felt they need to curtail?
The Shem Mishmuel offers the explanation through the fact that Chazal basically asserted power over physical reality through the power that the Torah invested in them as guardians of the lunar calendar, adding an Adar II when needed. To the Greeks, who objected to human claims over nature, this was revolting. Another explanation, according to the Shem Mishmuel, is the connection between the word Chodesh, month and the word hischadshus, renewal. He says that the hischadshus of the Jewish nation lies in our intimate contact with God. Just as the moon draws new life from God every month, so too does the Jewish nation. Just as the cycle of the moon continues indeterminately, so too will the Jewish nation, as per the Kiddush levanah tefilah.
The Greeks felt the need to eradicate Rosh Chodesh from the calendar because they were jealous of our claims to be the nation of the moon, of our special relationship with God.
We hope this month you take the time to internalize our strong connection to the moon and HaShem! Chodesh Tov!

FACTS I DISCOVERED WHILE LOOKING UP OTHER THINGS
CEMETERY VISIT ON TISHA B’AV… It is recorded in the Codes that after the morning services on Tisha B’Av one should visit a Jewish cemetery. The idea is that even the deceased feel pain and suffering for the people who are living. It is recorded by the Magen Avraham that when the situation is that it is not possible to visit a Jewish cemetery, visiting a non-Jewish cemetery would be permitted. The Aruch HaShulchan writes against this. His idea is that non-Jewish deceased individuals are not pained by our Tisha B’Av experience. The Ari was not inclined to visit a cemetery at all except when attending a funeral. The Aruch HaShulchan adds that since people have a tendency to talk with idle chatter at the cemetery, it is better not to go. (When I attended the Kinot learning with Rabbi Dr. J. J. Schachter in Boston some years back, we went to the Jewish cemetery in Roxbury to visit the graves of Rav Soloveitchik and his wife after learning all the Kinot on Tisha B’Av day. It has not been our custom to go to the cemetery in Hollywood on Tish B’Av.) ELI HERRING… With all the nostalgic coverage of Sandy Koufax not pitching in the 1965 Opening Day game of the World Series on Yom Kippur, we are further removed from the story of Eli Herring. Eli was a star football player in college in the early 1990’s. At 6 foot 8 inches, and weighing 330 pounds, he was a formidable offensive tackle. Equally impressive was that he was a track star in college. [The vision of someone that size running track evokes a vision of runners getting out of his way! In truth, shotput is also part of the track and field competition.] By the time he was graduated, he was married and very devoted in his religious observance. He wrote every NFL football team that he was committed to observing the Bible and the laws of the Sabbath. He will not work, train, or play on the Sabbath! When draft day came, he was surprised to find out that the Oakland Raiders drafted him in the 6th round. The Raiders sent a team executive to Herring and offered him a 3 year contract for $1.5 million. Herring refused: “Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy” meant more than a lucrative sports career. Instead he took a job teaching math in a local high school. Eli and his wife have 7 children: Hannah, Sarah, Rebekah, David, Jonathan, Haddasah, and Elizabeth. His starting salary at the high school was $22,000. [It would take him 20 years at that rate to earn what he would make in one year in the NFL.] Eli has no regrets over his decision. He is humble and feels that God has blessed him greatly for his decision. By the way, Eli Herring is not Jewish; he is a Mormon. He attended college at Brigham Young University and lives in Orem, Utah. Kol HaKavod to him. [Jews and Seventh Day Adventists did inform him that choosing their religion would have allowed him to keep the “right” day of the Sabbath and have a football career.]
BELIEVE IT OR NOT!... Robert Ripley (1890-1949) was born Leroy Robert Ripley in California and was called Roy at home. He started using Robert as his first name when his newspaper boss felt that Leroy wasn’t a “manly” enough name for a journalist. He started as a sports cartoonist and ended up a very wealthy entrepreneur with his Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! empire. He was awkward looking with crooked buck teeth; he stammered and stuttered. Yet his “queeriosities” were extremely popular. He traveled the world, visiting over 200 countries “discovering” the strangest oddities which he shared with his audience back home. For many years, people thought Ripley was an amazing discoverer, being able to find his oddities all over the world. In truth, he didn’t discover a thing; in 1923 he had hired a researcher back in New York who did all the “discovering.” NORBERT PEARLROTH (1893-1983)… was a Jewish immigrant who lived in Brooklyn. Born in Austria and educated in Cracow, Poland, he came to America in 1920. In 1923, he learned from a friend that Robert Ripley was looking for a polyglot (SAT word meaning a person who has mastered many languages). Since Pearlroth knew 11 languages, he was hired to do Ripley’s research. He worked 6 days a week, 10 hours a day in the New York Public Library’s Main Reading Room. For 52 years Pearlroth took the subway into Manhattan. The library estimated that Pearlroth examined some 7,000 books every year, meaning that he researched more than 350,000 books in his career, working 26 years personally for Ripley, and 26 years for King Features Syndicate which took over running the show after Ripley’s death. For syndicate editors, he was required to submit 24 items each week. Pearlroth also wrote a weekly column “Your Name” for the Jewish Post of New York, about the origins of Jewish surnames. So the discoveries for Ripley were really made by a Jewish immigrant from Brooklyn, Believe It Or Not. POLYGLOT… Scientists are still researching polyglotism: how a person has the ability to learn many languages. To conquer the vocabulary is part of the picture, but to be fluent requires additional language skills. There is also another category: a polyglot savant – one who has a significant mental disability and yet is able to demonstrate profound capacity for languages. A polyglot is aided by the universal grammar structure of sentences – the S-V-O order (Subject Verb Object). When the S-V-O order is altered, it causes problems for the polyglot. I added this tidbit because Biblical Hebrew is different from the regular S-V-O structure that does exist in Modern Hebrew. Biblical Hebrew has a V-S-O structure as the normal pattern.

Mitzvah Monitor The Dove In Search of Rest: After the Flood and During these Trying Times in Israel
Rabbi Yosef Weinstock The following is an edited version of my remarks from Parshat Noach, 10/17/15.
After the flood, Noach sends a dove to “test the waters” and see if the land is inhabitable. The Torah states: But the dove found no resting place for the sole of its foot; טְוֹלא ָמְצָאה ַהּיֹונָה ָמנֹוַח ְלַכף ַרְגָלּה The Midrash explains that the Jewish People are likened to a dove. Just as the dove from Noah’s Ark at first found no rest, so too the Jewish People find no rest in exile. Unfolding events in Israel have left the Jewish People particularly restless and anxious. Though we are blessed to witness Jewish sovereignty over our Jewish homeland, recent events remind us that the Geulah Sheleimah, complete redemption, has yet to arrive. These days Geulah can seem very far off. Israel finds herself under attack; not merely from the stabbings and indiscriminate violence against its citizens, but from lies that are told about Israel, the source of today’s conflict, and the historical Jewish connection to the Land. All of the following statements have done irreversible damage to Israel’s image in the world: the State Department’s suggestion that Israel has changed the status quo on the Temple Mount and that it may be using “excessive force” (both claims retracted), or Secretary Kerry’s assertion that Israeli settlement construction is the root cause of the current wave of terror against Israelis (also retracted), or the New York Times article that questioned the very existence of the Jewish Temples on the Temple Mount (also retracted). Such statements, like all Lashon Hara, are impossible to undo. Their impact lingers. This weekend, Parshat Noach 5776, all of the American Jewish denominations: Orthodox, Conservative, Reform and Reconstructionist, have come together in a Shabbat of Solidarity with Israel. Organized by the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, the goal is for Jews across the denominational spectrum to join together this Shabbat to talk about and pray for Israel. In addition to prayer, the conference’s statement encourages Jews to make commitments in three areas:
A. Maintain, or initiate contact with Israeli friends and relatives B. Visit Israel: don’t cancel plans you have, consider making trip plans that you have wanted to make but have
been putting off C. Stay informed: follow the news, be up to date, and when the opportunity presents itself express public support
for Israel in the media and to elected officials – and speak out strongly for the truth and against lies. I’m glad to participate in this initiative. I hope that when calm is restored we can continue to live by the values of cooperation, mutual respect and unity. But from our Parsha, I have my concerns. Our Torah reading depicts a drastic transformation in Noach’s character for the worse. At first Noach is described as an ish tzadik, a righteous man, who courageously opposed the corrupt values and lifestyle of his contemporaries and charted his own path of piety and morality. By the time we arrive at the latter part of the parsha, however, something has changed. This downward slide begins when he plants a vineyard after the flood, and hits bottom when he becomes intoxicated and humiliates himself in the presence of his sons. What happened? Why the drastic change for the worse? Rav Aharon Lichtenstein suggested that Noach’s negative transformation resulted from the absence of pressure and the resolution of any crises. Very often, the assault on a value or idea fuels the flames of devotion among the faithful. Opposition and pressure imposed by external threats can ignite a passionate response to defend that which is attacked. Noach’s righteousness may have been the product of the world’s opposition, his response to an external force that declared war on decency and morality. After the flood, however, Noach had no opposition. He was left to contemplate himself, his own weaknesses and drives. When confronted with crisis and pressure, like when Israel is under attack, we, like Noach, are at our best; we remember to put aside our differences and work for a common cause. Like Noach, a new challenge arises after the crisis is resolved: maintaining that spirit of cooperation, mutual respect and achdut in the absence of any pressing need forcing us to do so. In Parshat Noach we read how the dove did not find rest, but we are probably more familiar with the phrase written by Rabbi Yehuda Halevy in his poem that has become a popular Shabbat song, “Yom Shabbaton” “Yona Matza Bo Manoach”, ultimately the Jewish People will find calm and peace. I hope that our tefillot on behalf of Israel and her citizens are accepted and that calm is restored in Israel. I hope that this Shabbat of Solidarity inspires us to continue talking and working together on behalf of all noble causes that help Israel, the Jewish People and the world.

KOSHER KORNER
CANNED FRUIT does not need rabbinical supervision. One may read the ingredients panel and gain the needed information to make the decision of its acceptance. For instance, if it contains grape juice or any Israeli produce, it requires supervision.
CANNED VEGETABLES. All canned and/or frozen vegetable products require supervision. Plain BIRD’S EYE frozen vegetable products with no kashrut sensitive additives bearing a Triangle K are acceptable BUT you then have to inspect it yourself for bugs.
LACTIC ACID. By definition the LAC refers to it being a dairy ingredient. But just about all Lactic Acid used today is
chemical and therefore pareve. The only product that I know of that is using a natural Lactic Acid (and is dairy) is in Cream Cheese – and therefore not creating confusion.
NON-DAIRY CREAMER is Halachically dairy. The main ingredient is CASEIN which is made by shaking milk
vigorously until it decomposes. The government will then consider it non-dairy. But not us.
FOOD LION FROZEN PIZZA with an OU is not acceptable, as the OU does not supervise any of these products. This situation of “unauthorized” usage of a kosher symbol is quite normal. Often it is a printer’s error and not an attempt of fraud or kashrut deception. I had the embarrassment of being the supervising field rabbi for the OU for BADIA SPICES when the printer decided to add the OU symbol to Dried Shrimp. Luckily it was caught before being transported all over the Badia territory. It only went to South Florida, and to Monsey, NY – where so many of the OU executives live. We all managed to survive and corrective messages were made.
SHEMITTAH. Although the Shemittah year ended, much of the Israeli produce on the market is still from the
Shemittah year. Make sure the product has a good Hashgachah.
O.R.B. UPDATES: Levinsky Roasting, 3000 Stirling Road, #112, Hollywood, 33021 is now under the supervision of the O.R.B.

YOUNG ISRAEL OF HOLLYWOOD-FT. LAUDERDALE NOVEMBER 2015 PAGE #15
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Q: What is the Halachah of Thanksgiving? Is it a prohibition of Chukot HaGoyim, non-Jewish festivities? A: There is much Halachic discussion on this topic. My Rebbe, Rav Yosef Dov Soloveitchik, allowed eating turkey on
Thanksgiving. He (and other Rabbanim, including Rav Yehudah Henkin, Rav Eliezer Silver) explained that Thanksgiving is “only a day of thanks and not, Heaven forbid, for idol celebration.”
I was raised with a Thanksgiving festive turkey banquet as a general family affair, a day when my parents were off from work. After spending a Thanksgiving in Russia in 1983, I returned with a greater appreciation for the United States of America, and for the freedoms that it offers its resident and citizens. I favor recognizing Thanksgiving as akin to a banquet which includes the Prayer for the United States of America that we say on Shabbat morning in Shul.
[My research revealed that Reverend Seixas of the Sephardic American community suggested to his Congressman in the early 19th century that America proclaim the national Thanksgiving holiday be on a Thursday so it not be associated with the Sabbath of any of the three major world religions: Moslem Friday, Jewish Saturday, or Christian Sunday.]
Q: Recently I was asked about a situation in New Jersey involving the usage of the same sanctuary used for Jewish services every day and allowing the sanctuary to be used for Sunday Christian services one morning a week.
A: I found a Responsum in B’Mareh HaBazak in Yerushalayim discussing a similar case in California where a Jewish hospital established an interfaith chapel which would primarily be Jewish but would also be used by Christians (3 times a week) and by Moslems on Friday.
In the Responsum, attention is drawn to the fact that non-Jews were allowed to pray at the Holy Temple in Yerushalayim (Isaiah 56:7). (But this is not really related to this issue because the non-Jews were not experiencing a non-Jewish, foreign service on the Temple Mount.) Since the hospital situation is primarily a synagogue, the Responsum felt that the non-Jewish intrusion is not a violation of its sanctity.
[A greater in-depth discussion and agreement of ground rules would be necessary before permitting such an arrangement.]
Q: There is a young man in our Shul who is Jewish because his mother is Jewish, but his father is not Jewish. How is he to be called to the Torah?
A: I believe I addressed this one before, but I will embellish a little bit this time around. The best answer is to call him with his mother’s name as in the case of Yoav ben Tzruyah. This would be the case for calling him for an Aliyah, at his Brit Milah, his Ketubah (Mazel Tov), and Get (God forbid).
I can understand that if the young man would be embarrassed by being called up with his mother’s name, then allow him either to be called up using his grandfather’s name or ben Avraham.
There was once a case of a Jewish man with a Jewish mother and a non-Jewish father. Since the young man was Jewish solely by the connection to his mother, the question was raised as to his tribal identity since his mother’s family was Leviyim. All the rabbis classified him as Yisrael except for the Brisker Rav, who suggested that he be considered a tainted Levi. He would be considered a Levi, but not entitled to any privileges of a Levi.
Q: Why is there a custom for a groom to fast on his wedding day? A: The Sefer Taamei HaMinhagim cites two opinions. Magen Avraham (573): So that all his sins should be forgiven. Furthermore, if we allow him to drink alcohol on his
wedding, prior to the ceremony, he might be too intoxicated to go through the wedding ceremony in the proper serious spirit.
Rokeach: The wedding ceremony is a religious act. Just as the religiously observant do not eat before they have carried out religious precepts like Lulav & Etrog, hearing the Shofar, or davening Shacharit, so the groom fasts until after the wedding ceremony.
Q: Why did the Rabbis insert the Havdallah prayer “Atta Chanantanu” into the Shemonah Esrei recited in the evening service at the conclusion of Shabbat?
A: When the Jews returned to Palestine from captivity, most of them were too poor to be able to buy wine for Havdallah. The Rabbis of that time therefore instituted the custom of having the Havdallah recited as part of the Shemonah Esrei rather than after the evening service. When the Jews prospered once again, Havdallah would be recited after the service, over a cup of wine. But whenever they came upon hard days, Havdallah would be shifted back to the Shemonah Esrei so that it could be recited without wine. Eventually, to keep the Havdallah service from being shifted back and forth, the Rabbis decided that it should be recited both times, in the Shemonah Esrei and also over a cup of wine (or another beverage if wine is not available).
[Similarly the Aruch HaShulchan wrote that Bensching with a Mezuman was recited over a cup of wine. When the Jews suffered financially, this custom was abandoned.]

Worthy of Our Thanksgiving
This Thanksgiving season, families and friends across the United States will reflect upon their personal blessings and express gratitude. On such an occasion, it may be difficult to conjure a broader sense of optimism when considering recent developments in the Middle East, American political divisions or the numerous threats facing the State of Israel. Yet, beyond the headlines, there exist countless inspirational stories which underscore the vitality, importance and global impact of the U.S.-Israel relationship. Consider just a few examples in which the United States and the world are benefiting from a strong and secure Jewish state: WATER CONSERVATION: Among the most dangerous environmental threats facing Americans today is the ongoing drought in California, where state officials can no longer rely on nature to provide a sufficient water supply. To address this severe challenge, Californians are turning to Israeli expertise in water conservation and desalination. In an agreement signed this past September, Los Angeles County—with nearly 10 million residents—announced plans to work with Israel to study its leading water preservation technologies. In addition, this fall, the city of Beverly Hills announced its own formal partnership with Israel, which will include an exchange of ideas and resources in the areas of water conservation and management. CARE FOR VETERANS: Earlier this year, Israeli company SoftWheel announced that U.S. veterans would be among the first users of its revolutionary Acrobat Wheel wheelchair—a patented selective suspension mechanism that allows handicapped wheelchair users to ride over rocky terrain, traverse down stairs or roll easily over a curb. The Acrobat Wheel is just one of the many new Israeli innovations helping Americans across the country. INTERNATIONAL ASSISTANCE: This past Rosh Hashanah, Israeli volunteers from IsraAID: The Israel Forum for International Humanitarian Aid provided their services to effect a dramatic rescue aid operation on behalf of more than 400,000 refugees flooding Europe from war-torn Syria. “Some of the women, children and babies didn’t know how to swim and our staff immediately jumped into the water to help them, preventing them from drowning,” said IsraAID Director Shachar Zahavi. On this Thanksgiving, while much of the Middle East remains mired in conflict, violence and unrest, let us give thanks for our ability as American citizens to strengthen the unique and vital bond between the United States and Israel—a relationship which in turn offers hope to the world for a brighter future.

Can I donate a prize?We’d love that! If the prize is donated by your company, we’ll give you a special plug when the prize is announced.
