    G-d bless Michoel Savage for saying what he did.

    If your calling him by his Hebrew first name (Michoel), then you should call him by his Jewish last name, which i believe is Weiner.

    So that’s the reason why my sisters were never in school! I could never figure out why my mother always forced me to go to yeshiva and let my sisters stay home whenever they wanted under the excuse of “Babysitting”. Now i finally understand! (Baruch Hashem for the CR :D)

    SWEET POISON…

    A MUST READ TO THE END!

    In October of 2001, my sister started getting very sick She had stomach spasms and she was having a hard time getting around. Walking was a major chore. It took everything she had just to get out of bed; she was in so much pain.

    By March 2002, she had undergone several tissue and muscle biopsies and was on 24 various prescription medications. The doctors could not determine what was wrong with her. She was in so much pain, and so sick she just knew she was dying.

    She put her house, bank accounts, life insurance, etc., in her oldest daughter’s name, and made sure that her younger children were to be taken care of.

    She also wanted her last hooray, so she planned a trip to Florida (basically in a wheelchair) for March 22nd…

    On March 19, I called her to ask how her most recent tests went, and she said they didn’t find anything on the test, but they believe she had MS.

    I recalled an article a friend of mine e-mailed to me and I asked my sister if she drank diet soda? She told me that she did. As a matter of fact, she was getting ready to crack one open that moment..

    I told her not to open it, and to stop drinking the

    diet soda! I e-mailed her an article my friend, a lawyer, had sent. My sister called me within 32 hours after our phone conversation and told me she had stopped drinking the diet soda AND she could walk! The muscle spasms went away. She said she didn’t feel 100% but, she sure felt a lot better.

    She told me she was going to her doctor with this article and would call me when she got home.

    Well, she called me, and said her doctor was amazed! He is going to call all of his MS patients to find out if they consumed artificial sweeteners of any kind. In a nutshell, she was being poisoned by the Aspartame in the diet soda.. and literally dying a slow and miserable death.

    When she got to Florida March 22, all she had to take was one pill, and that was a pill for the

    Aspartame poisoning! She is well on her way to a complete recovery. And she is walking! No wheelchair! This article saved her life.

    If it says ‘SUGAR FREE’ on the label; DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!

    I have spent several days lecturing at the WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE on ‘ASPARTAME,’ marketed as’Nutra Sweet,’ ‘Equal,’ and ‘Spoonful.’

    In the keynote address by the EPA, it was announced that in the United States in 2001 there is an epidemic of multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus. It was difficult to determine exactly what toxin was causing

    this to be rampant. I stood up and said that I was there to lecture on exactly that subject.

    I will explain why Aspartame is so dangerous: When the temperature of this sweetener exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood alcohol in ASPARTAME converts to formaldehyde and then to formic acid, which in turn causes metabolic acidosis. Formic acid is the poison found in the sting of fire ants. The methanol toxicity mimics, among other conditions, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus.

    Many people were being diagnosed in error. Although multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence, Methanol toxicity is!

    Systemic lupus has become almost as rampant as multiple sclerosis, especially with Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi drinkers.

    The victim usually does not know that the Aspartame is

    the culprit. He or she continues its use; irritating the lupus to such a degree that it may become a life-threatening condition… We have seen patients with systemic lupus become asymptotic, once taken off diet sodas.

    In cases of those diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, most of the symptoms disappear. We’ve seen many cases where vision loss re- turned and hearing loss improved markedly.

    This also applies to cases of tinnitus and fibromyalgia. During a lecture, I said, ‘If you are using ASPARTAME (Nutra Sweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc) and you suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms, shooting, pains, numbness in your legs,

    Cramps,

    Vertigo,

    Dizziness,

    Headaches,

    Tinnitus,

    Joint pain,

    Unexplainable depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, or memory loss you probably have ASPARTAME poisoning!’ People were jumping up during the lecture saying,’I have some of these

    symptoms. Is it reversible?’

    Yes!

    Yes!

    Yes!

    STOP drinking diet sodas and be alert for Aspartame on food labels! Many products are fortified with it! This is a serious problem. Dr. Espart (one of my speakers) remarked that so many people seem to be symptomatic for MS and during his recent visit to a hospice; a nurse stated that six of her friends, who were heavy Diet Cokeaddicts, had all been diagnosed with MS. This is beyond coincidence!

    Diet soda isNOTa diet product! It is a chemically altered, multiple SODIUM (salt) and ASPARTAME containing product that actually makes you crave carbohydrates.

    It is far more likely to make you GAIN weight!

    These products also contain formaldehyde, which stores in the fat cells, particularly in the hips and thighs. Formaldehyde is an absolute toxin and is used primarily to preserve ’tissue specimens.’

    Many products we use every day contain this chemical but we SHOULD NOT store it IN our body!

    Dr. H. J. Roberts stated in his lectures that once free of the’diet products’ and with no significant increase in exercise; his patients lost an average of 19 pounds over a trial period.

    Aspartame is especially dangerous for diabetics. We found that some physicians, who believed that they had a patient with retinopathy, in fact, had symptoms caused by Aspartame. The Aspartame drives the blood sugar out of control. Thus diabetics may suffer acute memory loss due to the fact that aspartic acid and phenylalanine are NEUROTOXIC when taken without the other amino acids necessary for a good balance.

    Treating diabetes is all about BALANCE. Especially with diabetics, the Aspartame passes the blood/brain barrier and it then deteriorates the neurons of the brain; causing various levels of brain damage,Seizures, Depression,

    Manic depression, Panic attacks,Uncontrollable anger and rage.

    Consumption of Aspartame causes these same symptoms in non-diabetics as well. Documentation and observation also reveal that thousands of children diagnosed with ADD and ADHD have had complete turnarounds in their behavior when these chemicals have been removed from their diet.

    So called ‘behavior modification prescription drugs’ (Ritalin and others) are no longer needed.Truth be told, they were never NEEDED in the first place!

    Most of these children were being ‘poisoned’ on a daily basis with the very foods that were ‘better for them than sugar.’

    It is also suspected that the Aspartame in thousands of pallets ofdiet Coke and diet Pepsiconsumed by men and women fighting in the Gulf War, may be partially to blame for the well-known Gulf War Syndrome..

    Dr. Roberts warns that it can cause birth defects, i.e. mental retardation, if taken at the time of conception and during early pregnancy. Children are especially at risk for neurological disorders and should NEVER be given artificial sweeteners.

    There are many different case histories to relate of children suffering grand mal seizures and other neurological disturbances talking about a plague of neurological diseases directly caused by the use of this deadly poison.’

    Herein lies the problem: There were Congressional Hearings when Aspartame was included in 100 different products and strong ob-jection was made concerning its use. Since this initial hearing, there have been two subsequent hearings, and still nothing has been done.The drug and chemical lobbies have very deep pockets.

    Sadly, MONSANTO’S patent on Aspartame has EXPIRED! There are now over 5,000 products on the market that contain this deadly chemical and there will be thousands more introduced. Everybody

    wants a’piece of the Aspartame pie.’

    I assure you that MONSANTO, the creator of Aspartame, knows how deadly it is.

    And isn’t it ironic that MONSANTO funds, among others, the American Diabetes Association, the American Dietetic Association and the Conference of the American College of Physicians?

    This has been recently exposed in the New York Times. These [organizations] cannot criticize any additives or convey their link to MONSANTO because they take money from the food industry and are required to endorse their products.

    Senator Howard Metzenbaum wrote and presented a bill that would require label warnings on products containing Aspartame,

    especially regarding pregnant women, children and infants.

    The bill would also institute independent studies on the known dangers and the problems existing in the general population regarding seizures, changes in brain chemistry, neurological changes and behavioral symptoms.

    The bill was killed.

    It is known that the powerful drug and chemical lobbies are responsible for this, letting loose the hounds of disease and death on an unsuspecting and uninformed public. Well, you’re informed now!

    I have it from a very reliable source that this song is to be included on the new ybc album which is due to be released in time for chanuka

    I’m not sure who your “very reliable source” is but the music version is already for sale online, and from what i hear it’s being released as an acapella song together with other acapella songs shortly before Pesach.

    I am discussing those NON-ACTIVE members whose wives saunter out

    after the street has been cleaned and then go about their shopping, etc.

    what makes you so sure that these members are indeed non-active??

    Maybe call up their boss and find out how many calls he takes each day. MOST members of Hatzala ARE active and the few who aren’t active are either sick or very old. (But at least their wives are active 😀 )

    i’m a composer and producer.

    the best way to get ur songs out there is to have it recorded professionally with music and vocals (preferably with a pleasant voice worth listening to) and email it to either a singer or a producer (or both) and taking it on from there.

    regarding making cd’s, u should only do it if 1) u have a LOT of $$ to spare* and 2) u have a really nice voice (and that should be others opinions not ur own)

    good luck

    THOSE WERE THE NIGHTS

    Bubby burned the Latkes every Chanukah

    Forgot them in the frying pan each year

    While we were having fun playing Dreidle

    Smoke alarms were wailing everywhere

    Firemen were breaking all the windows

    Zeidy closed his eyes, began to pray

    Those Latkes had no luck

    Our mouths bit down & stuck

    But Bubby made us eat them anyway

    CHORUS:

    Those were the nights of Chanukah

    I remember long ago

    When our family got together

    Little eyes aglow

    Multi-colored candles burning

    As the joyous songs were sung

    How I miss the Menorah lights

    When we were all so young

    Uncle Jake bought donuts by the dozen

    But Uncle Hymie ate while singing Maoz Tzur

    And that was Uncle Hymie’s big mistake

    Our parents stood there beaming as they called us

    And handed us our presents one by one

    Bathed in the light

    The Menorah burning bright

    Sweet memories as brilliant as the sun

    CHORUS

    Where are those nights? Full of fun, full of lights

    I can still hear their laughter and songs

    But though they are gone, their spirit still lives on

    For Bubby’s love is still alive and strong

    CHORUS

    Those were the nights of Chanukah

    Spent with family and friends

    Filled with dreams and laughter

    That we thought would never end

    So cherish your moments together

    And we wish a happy Chanukah

    To everyone

    DADDY COME HOME

    Daddy’s been gone

    Gone for so long

    For him I pray

    He joined the Corps

    Fighting a war

    Somewhere far away

    He promised me he’d return

    When the Chanukah candles burn

    So here I wait

    The blessings I recite

    By the candle-light

    But it’s getting late

    CHORUS:

    Daddy come home

    Stay with me

    Let me hold your hand

    Let me sit upon your knee

    I see fear

    In Mommy’s eyes

    Every time she cries

    And tries to comfort me

    It’s scary here at home

    My mind begins to roam

    Have I lost you?

    I hear the phone

    Mommy’s mournful moan

    It can’t be true!

    CHORUS

    Where has he gone?

    How will I carry on?

    Tell me what can I say?

    Send my Daddy home to…

    Calling my name

    I run into his arms

    Yes, my Daddy came

    Home to me

    Now he’s holding me

    For all eternity

    When night falls

    We stand tall

    Eight candles are burning

    Home at last

    Eyes aglow

    I hug my Daddy tight

    And I’m not letting go

    There were two buddies one with a Doberman Pinscher and the other with a Chihuahua. The guy with the Doberman Pinscher says to his friend, “Let’s go over to that restaurant and get something to eat.”

    The guy with the Chihuahua says, “We can’t go in there. We’ve got dogs with us.”

    The buddy with the Doberman Pinscher says, “Just follow my lead.” They walk over to the restaurant, the guy with the Doberman Pinscher puts on a pair of dark glasses, and he starts to walk in.

    The bouncer at the door says, “Sorry, mac, no pets allowed.”

    The man with the Doberman Pinscher says, “You don’t understand. This is my seeing-eye dog.”

    The bouncer says, “A Doberman Pinscher?”

    He says, “Yes, they’re using them now, they’re very good.”

    The man at the door says, “Come on in.”

    The buddy with the Chihuahua figures, “What have i got to lose,” so he puts on a pair of dark glasses and starts to walk in.

    Once again the bouncer says, “Sorry, pal, no pets allowed.”

    The guy with the Chihuahua says, “You don’t understand. This is my seeing-eye dog.”

    The bouncer at the door says, “A Chihuahua?”

    The man with the Chihuahua says, “A Chihuahua??? They gave me a Chihuahua?!”

    Grandma Jones from the valley had never experienced a sick day in her life, so she didn’t take it kindly when a bad case of the flu sent her to the hospital for observation.

    By the time a pair of husky interns got Grandma tucked into bed, she had managed to complain about everything: the temperature, the lights, the skimpy gown, the food and the mattress, especially, the mattress.

    Suddenly, Grandma spotted a small plastic item with a button, attached to a cord. “What’s that?” she demanded.

    “If you need anything in the middle of the night, Grandma,” said one of the interns, “just press that button.”

    “What does it do, ring a bell?” she asked.

    “No, it turns on a light in the hall for the nurse on duty,” the intern replied.

    “A light in the hall?” responded Grandma. “Look, I’m the sick one around here. If the night nurse needs a light on in the hall, she can get up and switch it on herself.”

    Why you need a Jewish decorator

    A Jewish man buys a fabulous home in Beverly Hills, California. He brings in a local workman to decorate the place. When the job is finished, the homeowner is delighted but realizes that he’s forgotten to put mezuzahs on the doors.

    He goes out and buys 50 mezuzahs (mezuzot!) and asks the decorator to place them on the right hand side of each door except bathrooms.

    He’s really worried that the decorator will chip the paint work or won’t put them up correctly. However, when he comes back a

    few hours later, he sees that the job has been carried out to his entire satisfaction. He’s so pleased that he gives the decorator a bonus.

    As the decorator is walking out of the door he says, “Glad you’re happy with the job.” “By the way, I took out all the warranties from the little boxes and left them on your table.

    got this email today, hope it hasn’t been posted yet.

    Coincidence?? No, nothing in life is a coincidence. How do we know that? Very simple, we know and believe that there’s a G-D in the world and he run every second of it! People walking around breathing on their own. So you’ll say its natural, healthy people are able to breath on their own, Right? And when he stops breathing, IS THAT A COINCIDENCE?? No!! We know that Hashem gives each and every breath into a persons lungs, and when Hashem stops, the person stops breathing, not a coincidence. We know that there’s something called Hashgacha Pratis, that Hashem has a block plan for everything He does. Nothing just happens! Nothing is a coincidence! Some people may think if they thought up a great idea, thats its all them, that they could take all the credit for it. Do you really think a human being could run such a powerful operation such as the brain? No! There’s a G-D in the world who sent that idea to your head so you could be the shliach, the one to carry it out. Stop for a second and think, Take that moment to realize what just happend. Take out a Tehilim and say a small prayer. And if your really in a rush, take the easy way out, its three simple yet powerful words, look up and say, THANK YOU HASHEM!! I once had the privilege to drive around the Clevelander Rebbe, Harav Yitzchok I Rosenbaum Shlit”a, and there was something i noticed and really learnt a powerful lesson from. Every few minutes the Rebbe would look up, clap his hands and say Heilege Bashefer, here is a man who constantly had Hashem on his mind and also made sure to always remind people, basically saying, i know your busy, but remember there’s a Ribono shel olam out there, running this massive operation. It wasn’t your alarm clock that got you up this morning, it was Hashem who said to you, its time to get up, im giving you another day on this world, go daven, go learn, you have another day that you could follow my commandments. How many people wake up in the morning, shut off their alarm clock and jump out of bed because they’re running a few minutes late. How many people forget that small Tefilah that we say in the morning, Modeh Ani…Thank you Hashem, king of the world, for giving my Neshama back to me this morning. Alarm clock? Coincidence? Take out the time, a little, to Daven, Learn…no one is asking you to daven a 2 hr. Shachris. Hashem wants you to go out and work so you could support your family, but do it in a way that Hashem is still involved and a part of your life, family, work. Try once an hour to say a kapitul tehilim, it takes less then a minute, and if you really dont have the time, try another way. You make a successful business deal? Thank you Hashem! Your boss hands you your paycheck, dont forget who the real boss is, Thank you Hashem! You have a job? your able to feed your family? you have a house to live in? You found a Shidduch? Dont forget those three words,Thank You Hashem. Remember, nothing is a coincidence!
