Medicine, Religion, Ethics, Professionalism : Seton Hall Seminarian Andrew DeSilva Reflects on Ethics Fellowship at Auschwitz
By Julia Mills
During the 2019 Days of Holocaust Remembrance, Deacon Andrew J. De Silva, a seminarian who completed his fourth-year of theology studies at the Immaculate Conception Seminary at Seton Hall University, reflected on his Fellowships at Auschwitz for the Study of Professional Ethics (FASPE). The two-week program challenges its participants to reflect on the role of their professions in bringing about the events of the Holocaust.
Now in its tenth year of operation, FASPE looks at how and why professionals across five disciplines—business, journalism, law, medicine, and religion—abandoned their ethical guideposts during the onset of the Holocaust. Further, the program frames those questions within a contemporary study of ethical issues.
In 2018, only 63 fellows were chosen to participate in the program across the United States and abroad. Deacon De Silva, who was the first student from Seton Hall to attend, along with twelve other seminary fellows traveled and collaborated closely with the medical professionals on the trip. DeSilva says he was impressed with the diverse group of fellows FASPE attracts and that he "made good friends on the trip," many with whom he still stays in touch. "The combination of medical science and the religion is such an important collaboration," says De Silva. "It is so powerful having caretakers of the body and those of the soul together, discussing ethical responsibility." He added, "Humanity has been responsible for much good but also incredible evil. It is our duty to learn from the past in a way that ensures we never repeat it."
The program explores how Hitler and the Nazis swayed individuals under the pretext of professionalism. During his seminars, De Silva studied and discussed different ways religious leaders are said to have helped facilitate the events of the Holocaust. These actions included the controversial signing of an accord between the Nazi state and the Vatican as well as certain religious leaders in Germany amending the New Testament to get rid of Jewish words or phrases.
One of the most powerful moments for De Silva was a trip to the summer house where a group of high-ranking Nazi officials planned the "Final Solution," now often referred to as the Wannsee Conference. The Fellows sat inside the house discussing the question "What is Evil?" and how their professions could have acted differently. For De Silva, it reinforced the power of place. "My faith allows me to define and study evil; however, it is another thing to see the effects of evil firsthand and to sit in its home," said De Silva.
Through this experience, De Silva says he developed a greater understanding of the influence his profession holds and the weight it carries in society. As part of…Read More – EXCELLENT program insights>>

If you're a weekend warrior, you enjoy your sports activities, but often wish you had more time to train so you weren't so sore or tired the Monday after a big weekend. Isometric exercise can be performed in minutes a week with the PeakFitPro. What if you could increase your strength with five-to-ten minutes a week of exercise? Sounds too good to be true? It's not. Medical and scientific research over the past century has proven that it's possible to triple or quadruple your strength in a matter of weeks or months with just 10 minutes of isometric exercises per week.
Team sports typically require significant mastery of sports specific skills. Why waste 3-10 hours per week lifting and getting minimal results, when you can maximize those results with the PeakFitPro and spend your valuable time actually mastering your sport specific skills that will take you to the next level?


Happy New Year! 2017 is here and we are just getting started. It's time to rebuild, recenter and to take on this new year. I've never been much of a fan of January, but I do love how everyone is super health-minded this month. There are far fewer temptations to eat poorly because most everyone is on the same page. People are focused on working out, losing weight, and just being better.
As for Must-Have Monday, I've rounded up some things that should help you meet success in the New Year!
If you're planning on adding some extra fitness into your routine this month, cute and comfy workout clothes are a must. I always start my workouts in sweatshirts and warm clothes until I feel my muscles are warmed up and ready for the workout. I ordered two of these beauties and I cannot wait for them to come. Of all the sneakers I have, my favorite to workout in are these. They are lightweight and stay on well with my workout socks.
If you've been reading my Wellness Wednesday posts you've been hearing me talk about clean eating. Some of you are feeling a bit overwhelmed by the idea of cleaning things up. If that's the case, start small. Make one small change. A great one would be eliminating sugar from your coffee.
This is no easy feat if you're very used to sugar and I always hear the same thing, what about my coffee?! The best way to improve your caffeine addiction is by swapping creamers for a healthier alternative. Find a clean almond or coconut milk without sugar, and then add some raw honey to your cup of jo. For added sweetness, froth your milk first and you'd be suprised that your coffee still tastes good, all without the added calories and sugar.
Oh, and yes, I signed up for your meal plan. Planning meals is my least favorite part. One year while my kids were at soccer practice, I sat with my Clean Eating and Cooking Light magazines and created monthly meal plans using fresh and locally available produce. I've kept them and reused them each year. I'm always glad to have new things to try though.

New Delhi: The Minister of Railways, Dinesh Trivedi, announced the constitution of a High Level Safety Review Committee, comprising eminent persons in technical and high end technology related fields with experience and expertise in a managing innovation in technology and change.
The Committee will be headed by Dr. Anil Kakodkar, Former Chairman of Atomic Energy Commission, and assisted by Dr. N. Vedachalam of Vikram Sarabhai Space Center, Thiruvananthapuram, Prof. Sanjay Dhande, Director IIT Kanpur and G.P. Srivastava Director E&I Group, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre.
E. Sreedharan, Managing Director, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation has consented to act as the Advisor to the Committee. The Committee is expected to provide a valuable independent outsiders' view in respect of the system and protocols.
Based on the accidents and their consequences witnessed in the recent past, the Committee would examine aspects connected with Signalling Systems, Rolling Stock (of all types), Fixed Structures (Tracks, Bridges and OHE), Human Resource Development with emphasis on Training, Education and Research, Need for a Third Party Audit, Organisational and structural changes in RDSO and in any other department, and improvements in procedural system and improvement in procedures and systems and any other item/modification which Committee may desire.
The Committee would lay down the road map on safety related issues which need to be addressed in the short term and the long term and would give invaluable recommendations which would have a significant bearing on further improvement in the systems and protocols. Indian Railways would make all efforts to address the recommendations of the High Level Committee with a view to achieve further improvement in the safety environment on the Indian Railways.
Safety in train operations is accorded the highest priority by Indian Railways and all measures are being taken on a continual basis to prevent accidents and enhance safety. Despite the fact that safety record of Indian Railways has shown considerable improvement progressively, with the number of train accidents decreasing from over 2000 in 1960-61 to 473 in 2000-01 and further to 141 in 2010-11, with a corresponding reduction in the accidents per million train kilometers(globally accepted index of safety) from 5.50 in 1960-61 to 0.65 in 2000-01 and further to 0.15 in 2010-11, we in the Railways are seriously concerned with any accident, particularly an accident involving loss of human lives.
The recent accident of Kalka Mail in July 2011 near Kanpur on North Central Railway involving 70 casualties and also the collision near Arakonnam on Southern Railway involving 10 causalities has necessitated a holistic assessment of further additional measures which can be adopted to further enhance the safety environment on the Indian Railways. It is pertinent to mention that 57 consequential accidents have occurred in the current financial year i.e. from 1st April to 15th September 2011 in comparison to 65 accidents in the corresponding period of the previous year, which included 23 incidents at unmanned level crossing gates in each of these two years.
"As far as Indian Railways is concerned, there can be no tolerance even for a single accident involving loss of human life but the substantial growth in the passenger and freight traffic handled by the system does definitely put considerable strain on the infrastructure which needs to be addressed progressively. In the previous decade, the total number of average passenger and freight trains run daily on the Indian Railways' system have increased by 30% from around 14,000 to almost 19,000. These include over 12,000 passenger carrying trains. The number of passengers carried have increased by almost 50% from around 4800 to 7200 million with a growth of almost 90% originating freight traffic from 473 million tonnes to 888 million tonnes. Indian Railways have in fact added over 450 trains including 325 passenger and 125 freight services in the last decade i.e. 2001-2010, to run on a daily basis as compared to only 30 daily trains added per year in the previous decade i.e. 1990-2000," the ministry said in a statement.
"It has been Indian Railways' constant endeavour to upgrade its infrastructure for meeting the safety requirement for handling the exponential growth of traffic. Pin pointed safety measures like up gradation of track structure, mechanized maintenance of track, improvement in welding technology, large scale track circuiting, introduction of electrical/electronic signaling systems, advanced monitoring systems such as axle counters, vigilance control devices on locomotives, improvement in rolling stock such as introduction of LHB type coaches and improvement in freight stock with air brake systems, upgraded design of locomotives, improvement of training methodology have received undivided focus and attention," the statement noted.
"In view of the extreme demand on the Indian Railways' system, both in respect of infrastructure as also skilled manpower directly connected with safety on the railways arising out of the aspirations of the general public and public representatives and with a view to ensure that safety is given overriding priority and no aspect connected with safety escapes attention, the need was felt for an objective assessment and validation of time tested systems and protocols in vogue on Railway system. In pursuance of these objectives, the above mentioned High Level Safety Review Committee has been constituted by the Ministry of Railways," the statement added.

TikTok Pledges $375M to Fight COVID-19, Support Vulnerable Communities
The donation primarily supports front-line medical workers, educators, and local communities, while the rest is earmarked for advertising.
10 Apr 2020, 3:22 p.m.
TikTok this week pledged $375 million to COVID-19 relief efforts, including $250 million to support front-line medical workers, educators, and local communities affected by the crisis. The rest is earmarked for public health advertisements and business ad credits.
"COVID-19 is giving all of us a new perspective, and in the face of this unprecedented crisis, we are collectively seeking moments of joy and inspiration," company president Alex Zhu wrote in a blog announcement. "Sometimes that means dancing and having fun where we can. Sometimes that means experiencing the comfort and warmth that comes through simple human connection in the face of adversity."
TikTok's contribution will be divided between three causes: $150 million toward medical staffing, supplies, and hardship relief (Health Heroes Relief Fund); $40 million to local organizations that serve vulnerable communities (Community Relief Fund); and $50 million in grants to educators, professional experts, and nonprofits for distance learning (Creative Learning Fund). TikTok is also going to match up to $10 million in donations made by its community.
"The TikTok community is uplifting one another, caring for one another, and lending a hand to one another," Zhu said. "This may be a serious time, but on TikTok it can still be joyful—and deeply inspiring."
The social network also introduced new initiatives to help small businesses restart and rebuild, contribute to public education efforts, and support the emotional well-being of the community through efforts like #HappyAtHome.

"Together, we will persevere through this time of crisis and emerge a better community and part of a world that we fervently hope will be more united in common purpose than it was before."

The FSMA is the most extensive change to the U.S. food safety system in more than 70 years. Signed into law in 2011, the FSMA directs the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to issue numerous regulations directed toward enhancing food safety and minimize the risk of foodborne illnesses. As with almost every law nowadays, the FSMA contains a whistleblower provision to ostensibly "advance the broad goals" of the new law.
Section 402 of the FSMA includes "employee protection" whistleblower provisions. Section 402 prohibits an employer from discharging or otherwise discriminating against an employee for engaging in certain protected activity, including reporting concerns to his or her employer, the federal government, or a state attorney general. To be protected under the new provision, an employee must only have had an objectively reasonable belief that the employer's practices were violating a provision of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act or any order, rule, regulation, standard, or ban issued by FDA. In other words, the employee must not necessarily be correct in their assertions of a violation.
Now comes the first round of lawsuits under Section 402 of the FSMA. On June 6, 2013, one of the first whistleblower complaints was filed in the U.S. District Court by a former employee of Brothers International Food Corporation. Colin Chase, the former Brothers Director of eCommerce, alleges that the food and beverage company violated the FSMA when it terminated his employment following his complaints about food safety practices.
Chase claims that he was terminated in July 2012 in retaliation for raising a variety of concerns about the re-dating and sale of expired food products. Chase also alleges that, after raising these concerns with company management, he was directed to lie to customers about the reasons for the re-dating of packages. The company is also alleged to have asked him to "prove his loyalty" by signing a nondisclosure/noncompetition agreement. When Chase refused to sign the agreement without first reviewing it with his attorney, Chase alleges that he was immediately terminated. As specifically permitted under Section 402 of the FSMA, Chase is seeking compensatory and "special damages," back pay and front pay, and attorney fees.
The addition of the FSMA and its corresponding retaliation provision have a broad impact on California's Food and Beverage Industry. Whistleblower actions in court tend to be very public. The dissemination of private confidential and proprietary information has an increased likelihood of being disclosed during these court actions. In addition, an increase in whistleblower actions has additional regulatory and enforcement implications. The whistleblower information will likely be shared with FDA, potentially resulting in additional inspections and enforcement actions by the FDA.
Companies must keep in mind the new business risk posed by the FSMA. Solid policies and procedures to handle internal complaints regarding food safety, the investigation process, and that prohibit retaliation following a complaint should be a starting point for any Company in the Food & Beverage Industry. For more information on strategies to address this new threat, contact any employment attorney at Weintraub Tobin.


WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – Tournament officials have recruited Alexandr Dolgopolov and Juan Monaco to compete in next month's Winston-Salem Open. The tournament will be held August 22-29 at the Wake Forest Tennis Complex adjacent to BB&T Field.
Dolgopolov will be making his fourth appearance in Winston-Salem after skipping last year's tournament. In three runs at the Winston-Salem Open, Dolgopolov has never fallen short of the quarterfinals, reaching the final eight in 2011 and 2012 as the No. 3 and No. 4 seed, respectively. In 2013, Dolgopolov broke through to make an appearance in the semifinals, but he was ousted by eventual runner-up Gael Monfils. Dolgopolov's best career ranking came during the 2012 campaign, when he was No. 13 in the world. On the pro circuit since 2006, Dolgopolov has two championships to his name, winning in 2011 at Umag and in 2012 at Washington.
Monaco is set to make his third appearance at the Winston-Salem Open after competing in the inaugural 2011 tournament and the 2013 edition. At his first Winston-Salem Open, Monaco, the No. 7-seed, reached the quarterfinals before falling to top-seeded American Andy Roddick. In 2013 as the No. 8-seed, Monaco advanced to the Round of 16 before falling to 10th-seeded Dolgopolov. Currently ranked No. 35 in the world, Monaco is expected to jump into the ATP top 30 after reaching the Round of 64 at Wimbledon last week. At age 31, Monaco's highest career ranking was No. 10, which was accomplished back in 2012. With eight titles to his name, his most successful year came in 2012 – like Dolgopolov – when he won four at Kuala Lumpur, Hamburg, Houston and Vina del Mar. His most recent championship came at Dusseldorf in 2013. Of his eight titles, seven have come on clay courts.
Box seats and individual tickets to the Winston-Salem Open are available online at winstonsalemopen.com, by calling (336) 758-6409 or in person at the Wake Forest ticket office located at Bridger Field House at BB&T Field. Tickets to the tournament are on sale now, beginning at just $5 and ranging up to $49 for the championship on August 29.

Cleveland Cavaliers dump Detorit Pistons 126-119 with Pistons' Blake Griffin taking break
By STEVE HERRICK
CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Cavaliers squeaked by without Kevin Love.
The Detroit Pistons, playing without Blake Griffin, weren't as fortunate.
The Cavaliers made clutch shots down the stretch for a 126-119 win Monday night in a game that featured six ties and five lead changes in the fourth quarter.
Collin Sexton scored 27 points, including the go-ahead 3-pointer with just under two minutes to play, and the Cavs defeated a Pistons squad that is fighting for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
Detroit coach Dwane Casey, whose team beat Toronto on Sunday, was unhappy following the game, especially with the fact that Cleveland shot 58 percent.
"I'm totally disappointed in myself and our team and everyone in our locker room," he said. "Our defensive disposition was nil. Nil."
The Pistons (36-34) are sixth in the East, a game ahead of Brooklyn and 2 1/2 in front of Miami, but their previous visit to Cleveland — when they routed the Cavaliers 129-93 on March 2 — might have played a role in this loss.
"I don't think we came out with a healthy enough respect for our opponent — and we should have," Casey said.
Love was out with a sore back for Cleveland after taking a hard fall in Saturday's loss to Dallas, while Griffin sat out to rest for Detroit.
Andre Drummond nearly made up for Griffin's absence with 21 points and 21 rebounds, but Detroit's center was also displeased with the outcome.
"We tip-toed around with them the whole game, and they went out and took advantage of it," he said.

Hand-Signed Correspondence between the Lubavitcher Rebbe and Rabbi Dr. Dov (Bernard) Homah of London, 1971-1976
Sold for $ 15,860
1. Hebrew letter from the days of selichot, 1971, by the Rebbe to Dr. Homah of London. In the letter, the Rebbe greets him with a blessing for a good inscription and sealing for the New Year and additional greetings for the upcoming New Year. Hand-signed by the Rebbe.
[1] leaf, typewritten on the Rebbe's official stationery and hand-signed by pen in blue ink.
Very fine condition, 2 crosswise folds.
2. English/Hebrew letter from Elul 1975 to Dr. Homah by the Rebbe, in which the Rebbe writes that based on 'the presumption that an emissary performs his tasks' he has received the material (apparently a book he authored) which Dr. Homah had sent him connected to his community activities. In addition, he thanks Dr. Homah for allowing him to copy the document (not detailed precisely) which he had sent him.
Later, the Rebbe discusses with him a subject they had previously mentioned and which he wanted to examine and also mentions the "unfortunate 'Who is a Jew?' law" which caused uproar in the State at the time, and he writes firmly against it.
(Regarding the controversial 'Who is a Jew?" law which was heatedly debated throughout the Jewish world at the time, the Rebbe's position was that the Chaba"d Shluchim be involved only in their shlichut activity, and not become involved in the disputes regarding this issue. In order to clarify his position, several years later in 1989, the Rebbe gave an internal speech to his shluchim saying that "each and every Jew is an emissary of G-d "to build Him a home in this world," and thereby there are some who by personal providence were chosen to be individual shluchim in the general shlichut ... and there are some for whom this is their major occupation ..."
"And given that 'the presumption [is] that an emissary performs his tasks,' surely each one of them is doing his best to perform his task properly, and since he was chosen to be a shaliach, he certainly has the talents required for it ..."
[1] leaf, typewritten on copy paper of the Rebbe's official stationery and hand-signed by pen in blue ink, 2 handwritten typing corrections.
Very fine condition, 2 crosswise folds, the upper left corner is slightly folded.
3. Letter from Tishrei 1975 by Dr. Homah to the Rebbe, in which he thanks him for his blessings in his letter from Elul 1975 and in which he writes that he agrees with everything the Rebbe had written in the previous letter. He also writes that he is considering resigning from the body of the council (possibly of the British Chief Rabbinate) since there is fear they might support acts that contradict halachah (apparently regarding the 'Who is a Jew?' controversy) and he does not want to take part in such a thing. Later, Dr. Homah writes additional details about the struggle to maintain Jewish ritual slaughter in England and asks the Rebbe to update him about the developments.
4. Letter from MarCheshvan 1975 by the Rebbe to Dr. Homah, in which the Rebbe writes that the most important thing is that the bottom line is that the Dr. agrees with him that it is preferable to influence from the inside without giving an official stamp to acts that contradict halachah. The Rebbe writes that he received the material that was sent to him by the doctor and it was brought to his attention apparently by one of his 'British Lubavitchers.' In any event, the Rebbe writes, you are the one in the field who sees things up close and all that remains is to repeat what has been said in the second letter, that more can be achieved when influencing from the inside, from within the community, than from the outside.
[1] leaf, typewritten on copy paper of the Rebbe's official stationery and hand-signed by pen in blue ink.
5. Letter by Dr. Homah from Kislev 1975 to the Rebbe, in which he writes that the material that the Rebbe had received was not sent by him but apparently by his 'British Lubavitchers.' Later he writes that the person who had sent the material that the Rebbe had received 'in his name' apparently did so to make the Rebbe pressure him to change his position on the matter.
[1] leaf, typewritten on both its sides and hand-signed by pen in blue ink.
Huge Collection of the Chabad Monthly "HaKriyah V'HaKedushah" about the Predictions of the Rebbe the RaYYa"Tz which were Realized and Hidden Hints not yet Understood. New York, 1940-1945
Huge collection of the Chabad monthly HaKriyah V'HaKedushah with dozens of predictions in abbreviations of the Rebbe the RaYYa"Tz which were completely realized. There are also hidden hints not (yet) revealed. There are those who refer to them as (though vastly different) "The Chassidic Nostradamus."
As in many matters in this monthly periodical, where there is more hidden than revealed, the figure of the editor was also shrouded in mystery for many years. Rumors held that from when HaKriyah V'HaKedushah first appeared, without the editor identified, someone noticed that an unfamiliar person would arrive at 770 on a monthly basis, go directly into the Rebbe's office, sit there a while, and leave as he came, without saying a word to passers-by. A few days after these mysterious visits, HaKriyah V'HaKedushah would come out. It was only years later that the editor's identity was revealed as Aharon H. HaLevi Hirsch, who was the editor of Dos Yiddische Licht, who changed his name to Aharon H. Levitt. He was not a Chassid of Chaba"d; apparently the Rebbe preferred a first-rate professional despite his not being a Chaba"d Chassid. Who the other writers were remains shrouded in mystery to this day, although there are many theories.
The journal included many important columns, but the most interesting were the ones with predictions, hints, and hidden matters. Some have still not been revealed, even today, 80 years later.
The first column is called "Otiyot Porchot" ["Flowering Letters"] and the editor writes: "The writer says: all "Otiyot Porchot" segments are written in insoluble riddles, only when the key is revealed, and we hope it will be revealed soon, the lock will open, and good things will be seen in each segment ..."
The second column is "Shurot Hafuchot" ["Backward Lines"] with a meaningless string of letters each of which is the first letter of words revealing future world events.
A typical riddle, from issue 41 (included in this collection) is as follows: "ואפזאבאאסאדגפזאוזאוזאעפהיאדדנאפעפדוזדכינבוגבאדודהאאאסאמזא"
The Tammuz issue (also included in this collection) contains the solution by revealing the abbreviation to be words in Yiddish foretelling the Allies' invasion of Europe, including the precise date! (The prophesy was published three months before the invasion.) Needless to say, the invasion was a military secret until immediately before the attack. The prophesies accurately predicted the conclusion of WII, American elections, and more. (Refer to Shofaro shel Mashich, New York, 2016, and a fascinating article by Binyamin Chinkis in Hamodia the same year.)
Huge collection containing almost all issues of the monthly and also doubles of issues (approximately 50-80 issues, some of which are dismantled). Yiddish. Overall moderate-fine condition.
Important Collection of [35] Chabad Anthologies - Warsaw/New York, Early 20th Century
Collection comprised of important compilations, some of which are rare. They represent the viewpoint of Chabad Chassidut during one of the most fascinating periods in the world in general and in Chabad Chassidut in particular.
An approximately 20-year period (1930-1953) which includes world-wide and Chassidic historic events: WWII, the Soviet Iron Curtain, the transition of the center of Chabad Chassidut out of Europe and the establishment of its center in the United States, and the shift of Admors from Rabbi the RaYYa"Tz to his son-in-law Rabbi Mendel Schneerson of Lubavitch.
* [9] Likkutei Devarim compilations by the Rebbe the RaYYa"Tz of Lubavitch. Warsaw, 1930-1935. Rare.
* [18] Maamarim compilations by the Rebbe the RaYYa"Tz of Lubavitch. Warsaw, 1933-1939.
* [4] HaTamim anthologies, edited by Rabbi Shmuel Zalmanov. Warsaw, 1936-1938. Rare.
* [2] Lubavitch - Bimah bishvil Ana"sh V'HaTemimim anthologies. Brooklyn, 1944. Yiddish.
* [1] Sichot compilation by the Rebbe the RaYYa"Tz of Lubavitch. Brooklyn, 1943. Yiddish.
* [1] De Reid compilation by the Rebbe the RM"M of Lubavitch. Brooklyn, 1953. Yiddish.
Moderate-fine condition.
Interesting Historical Letter by the Personal Secretary of the Admo"r the RaYY"Tz of Lubavitch
Interesting historical letter, on both sides of a sheet of official stationery. Part of the letter is typewritten and part is handwritten and signed by Rabbi Yechezkel Feigin, personal secretary of the Admo"r the RaYY"Tz of Lubavitch and the manager of the underground network of the Tomchei Temimim yeshivahs in the USSR. The letter was written in Riga, Latvia, on the first of Tevet 1932 and is addressed to Rabbi Chanoch Hendel Havlin, the Admo"r the RaYY"Tz's representative in the Land of Israel, acting on behalf of the Jews of Russia and the manager of the Torat Emet yeshivah in Jerusalem.
The letter begins with a description of the medical condition of the Admo"r the RaYY"Tz and the medical steps taken to treat him. Rabbi Feigin continues, describing the desperate situation of the Jews of Russia and its influence on the Admo"r's health. Later, Rabbi Feigin writes instructions of behalf of the Admo"r. Handwritten on the margins of the letter, there is an interesting addition on behalf of the Admo"r about letters from the Admo"r Rabbi Avraham Kalisker, which, rumor has it, are being held by a Melamed of the 'Chayei Olam' Talmud Torah, and the Admo"r the RaYY"Tz requests that it be checked whether the rumor is true.

And yet, on Christmas Eve in Milan, in 1495, Roxy Davidova did not feel the slightest bit Christmassy: after all, here she was. in the company of Laszlo Licinic, Peter Boo, Unity Mitford, Geli Raubal, Peter Lorre, Old Uncle Tom Cobley and all, as far from home as she – erroneously, as she would later learn for herself – thought possible, and with no chance of sending word back to her family, friends and political colleagues in the Unionist Party at Holyrood, utterly bereft; true, she had become rather more than friendly with Maria, sommelier in the local taverna and model for The Virgin, in another of Leonardo's paintings, but thus far, with the thirteen models for The Upper Room milling about as well, it had been a raucously testosterone-filled house they all lived in; Roxy was quite surprised to find that the models took their job so seriously, spending hours discussing their past histories, as narrated in the Gospels, playing dreidel for small bets, and she felt they were behaving more like actors than simply models, until she came across a dog-eared softback copy of Stanislavski's The Actor Prepares and that gave her a shock: it was in English, published in the Wartime year 1940 and she found on the fly-leaf the signature of Leslie Howard, famous British actor, who had gone missing in 1943 over the Bay of Biscay; "how on Earth?" she wondered aloud, and when, during a lull in mid-afternoon wassailing rehearsals, she was able to draw Maria away from the others, she showed her the book: "ha! Master Less-lie! he fancy himself as a great ac-tor, but he full of ham bones, try to teach us models how to act, tell us we gotta think ourselves into the person-ality of the person we represent – ha! is all old cheese, looka me? do I look like a vir-gin? ho ho, can I remember being a vir-gin? pah! Master Leonardo, he no wanta virgin, he wanta wo-man, he tell me Maria, you looka like the Virgin oughta look, like butter melt in your mouth – Virgin she is a lusty wo-man, not a milky leeetle gi-rl, Master Leonardo he know whatta he want, Master Less-lie he a butterfly!" but Roxy was dying to know: "and this Master Less-lie, he is here?" and Maria looked at her pityingly: "you no wanta Maria? you wanta ac-tor? he nevva love you like Maria!" no room for dubiety there, thought Roxy, flinging herself into the embrace of Maria's ample bosoms!!!

Q: Bind Dependency property to Image source C of a ToggleButton which switch the image of the button with triggers. Now I want to create DP for the images paths and to bind it to the source of the Image(through BitmapImage,UriSource) so when I use the U.C I can set the paths of the two Images in the xaml file.
the following code run but crushes before the window rises up,an exception is thrown - 'System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage' threw an exception.'
And the inner exception - "An System.InvalidOperationException is thrown when a method of an object is called when the state of the object cannot support the method call. The exception is also thrown when a method attempts to manipulate the UI from a thread that is not the main or UI thread."
Someone knows why it cruses and how to fix it??

A: You are trying to change the UriSource of your BitmapImage at runtime. You can't do it like this, by simply changing the filepath. BitmapImage implements the interface ISupportInitialize and requires initialization.
That means, you will have to create the new BitmapImage with the new source every time, or initialize it (by calling BeginInit and EndInit).
Changing the Uri is not enough, you have to change the whole BitmapImage.
I once made a MarkupExtension combined with a Converter to deal with such a situation. It takes a path, or a binding, and may require some modification to work in your case.

Research in the Correlated Electron Systems (CES) Group at the University of Bristol focuses on trying to understand the basic physics behind a variety of unusual phenomena in metals, polymers, insulators and superconductors.
The group has developed world-leading expertise in a range of experimental probes to study the electronic structure of metals and superconductors and performs a significant number of measurements at experimental facilities overseas.
Our focus is on developing an understanding of how the interactions between electrons in solids give rise to phenomena such as high-temperature superconductivity and exotic forms of magnetism.

A post shared by Lisa Stelly (@lisastelly)
Jack's ex Lisa has discovered another accomplice in her life. She is allegedly dating American entertainer and vocalist, Skylar Astin.

Q: how to exclude nested node_module folders from a loader in webpack Will the following exclude: '/node_modules/' only exclude the node_modules folder in the same directory, or will it also exclude the nested node_module folders? If not: how can I adjust it to exclude all the node_module folders?
module: {
    loaders: [
        { test: /\.ts$/, loader: 'ts-loader',exclude: '/node_modules/' }
    ]
},

Filestructure:
/general
/node_modules
/mod1
     /src
     /node_modules
/mod2
     /src
     /node_modules

A: The documentation says that

A condition may be a RegExp, a string containing the absolute path, a function(absPath): bool, or an array of one of these combined with "and".

So based on that you could try to build a RegExp to fit your case.
Personally I prefer to use include over exclude as a whitelist is easier to maintain than a blacklist. At least you have stronger control this way.
Following this line of thought you could skip exclude problem altogether and build a rule like this:
include: [
    path.resolve(__dirname, 'general'),
    path.resolve(__dirname, 'mod1/src'),
    path.resolve(__dirname, 'mod2/src')
]

Of course if you have more complicated structure maybe you'll end up doing a combination of both. One rule to exclude node_modules and one rule to include the directories you want to look into.

A: If your issue is only with TypeScript files, you can take advantage of the fact that 'ts-loader' will use your tsconfig.json file upon compiling. You can define paths you want to exclude right there instead.


Ray Murray first encountered forensic geology in 1973 when he was teaching geology at Rutgers University. An agent from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms walked into Murray's office with a bag of dirt, looking for answers. Since then, Murray has worked as a forensic geologist and, with then fellow Rutgers professor John Tedrow, in 1975 published the first textbook on the science, Forensic Geology.
Murray served as vice president and professor of geology at the University of Montana from 1977 to 1996 and continues to work in forensic geology. His latest book "Evidence from the Earth--forensic geology and criminal investigation" has been published by Mountain Press in May 2004.

No Fault Divorce Bill to receive second reading
16th December 2015 - Kathryn Mason
The No Fault Divorce Bill is to receive a second reading on 22 January 2016. It successfully passed its first reading on 13 October 2015.
The bill is sponsored by Richard Bacon MP and backed by Resolution, who have commented that:
If MPS are serious about reducing family conflict and the trauma that can be caused by divorce, I would urge them to support the bill as a welcome step towards removing the requirement of fault from divorce… a civilised society deserves a civilised divorce process.
In June 2015, Resolution carried out some research which showed that 52% of divorce petitions were fault-based, alleging either unreasonable behaviour or adultery. A full 27% of divorcing couples who asserted blame in their divorce petition admitted that the allegation of fault was not true but it was the easiest option.
Currently, divorces in England and Wales may only be granted on one of five grounds: adultery; unreasonable behaviour; desertion for two years or more; two years' separation with consent; or five years' separation without the other party's consent. Thus, couples who have simply come to the conclusion that the marriage is no longer working have to consider whether the divorce can wait two years or if one of them should file divorce papers citing unreasonable behaviour so that matters can be concluded with greater immediacy.
It is widely felt that the structure of current divorce petitions necessitates one spouse to put the blame on the other. For example, a divorce petition on the grounds of unreasonable behaviour requires one party to set out examples of the unreasonable behaviour in question. For even the most civil of break ups, this can be rather hard to see in black and white.
Baroness Hale has called for no fault divorce on numerous occasions. In 2014, in an interview with the Evening Standard, she pointed out that the new ground for divorce would save couples 'producing a list of the other person's failings'.
MPs did not have the opportunity to debate the bill's second reading on 4 December 2015 but we look forward to the second reading of the bill in January 2016.
Online research commissioned by this firm and carried out by OnePoll found that 85% of people questioned believed that no fault divorce should be available. If the Bill is passed then divorce law will make provision for the dissolution of a marriage or civil partnership when each party has separately made a declaration that the marriage or civil partnership has irretrievably broken down without a requirement by either party to satisfy the Court of any other facts.
Update: The 2015-16 session of Parliament ended without the Bill progressing any further

Slice the eggplant and lay out on a paper towel lined baking sheet.
Generously salt the eggplant on both sides and leave to sit for 30 minutes to soften and draw out excess moisture.
Blot off the water and excess salt from the eggplant with additional paper towels.
In a medium mixing bowl add the basil, ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, and one egg (beaten). Mix together.
Picking two equal sized eggplant slices, sandwich about a tablespoon of the ricotta mixture between the slices and place on a wax paper lined baking tray.
In three separate bowls, place the flour, bread crumbs, and the remaining 3 eggs, beaten.
Remove eggplant from the freezer and coat each first in flour, then egg, then bread crumbs. Coat once more in egg and a final time in the bread crumbs. Place back in the freezer while you prepare to fry.
In a large saucepan, heat oil to 350˚F (180˚C). Fry eggplant in batches, 3 at a time, until nicely browned on all sides.
Remove and place on a paper towel lined plate to drain off any excess oil. Sprinkle with salt. Serve with marinara sauce.
I made a healthier version of this by replacing the breadcrumbs and flour with almond flour, which has a lot less carbs. I also didn't fry it but baked at 400 for 30 min. 20 min in I topped it with sauce and mozzarella cheese. I didn't put it in the freezer since that is if you want to deep fry the dish and the center mixture probably needs to be solid.
It was great!! We loved it!
I didn't have any ricotta cheese in my fridge so I substituted with cottage cheese, turned out amazing and also has less fat! Also made then gluten free by using buckwheat flour!!
