Psychiatrist Twerski reflects on reaching 80 - The Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle

Psychiatrist Twerski reflects on reaching 80 - The Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle: "All one book

Although he has written 60 books, he contends that he really only wrote one book 60 different ways.

This particular incarnation of Twerski’s book is not a self-help book for people with mental health problems so much as a collection of reflections on his life and work.


This book targets a Jewish audience, and given the prevalence of Hebrew terms and the lack of a glossary, an Orthodox Jewish one. Unfortunately, the book’s religious tone might limit its appeal to more liberal or secular Jews."

Psychiatrist Twerski reflects on reaching 80 - The Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle

Psychiatrist Twerski reflects on reaching 80 - The Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle: "His latest is “Gevurah: My Life, Our World, and the Adventure of Turning 80” (Shaar Press, 272 pages, $22.99).

In many respects, Twerski’s book asserts the traditional Torah-centered moral values and mentshlikayt (common decency) of the Chassidic masters. But he also tackles the social and spiritual problems of today, along with guidance about raising children in the Internet age, weaving them together seamlessly."

War and Peace Art | Qassam Rockets | Buy a Hand Sculpted Rose: "Hand sculpted roses, candlesticks and menorahs crafted from actual Kassam Rockets that landed in Israel, symbolize the perseverance of the people of Israel. Living symbols of Israel's endurance in the face of Hamas and Islamic terror. Yaron Bob, an Israeli artist, who understands what it means to live in the shadow of terror, has found his way of transforming objects of war into expressions of peace. He creates metal art sculptures that blossom with hope: A magnificent rose with a mission."

When a Jewish women supports the lifelong enemy of her people, she will not have anyone's respect. The people, who cause she supports, despise her, and objectify her. It is somewhat comforting to realize that people who embrace the cause of aiding those who's primary goal is "not to simply live peacefully amongst the Jewish people in their only homeland, rather it is to "destroy the enemy from within".

Stuxnet Worm Used Against Iran Was Tested in Israel - NYTimes.com

Stuxnet Worm Used Against Iran Was Tested in Israel - NYTimes.com: "Dimona has taken on a new, equally secret role — as a critical testing ground in a joint American and Israeli effort to undermine Iran’s efforts to make a bomb of its own.

Behind Dimona’s barbed wire, the experts say, Israel has spun nuclear centrifuges virtually identical to Iran’s at Natanz, where Iranian scientists are struggling to enrich uranium. They say Dimona tested the effectiveness of the Stuxnet computer worm, a destructive program that appears to have wiped out roughly a fifth of Iran’s nuclear centrifuges and helped delay, though not destroy"
