The Dancing Jews By Eliezer Steinman Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov (16981760), the founder of the Chassidic movement, was once asked: “Why is it that Chassidim burst into song and dance at the slightest provocation? Is this the behavior of a healthy, sane individual?” The Baal Shem Tov responded with a story: Once, a musician came to town -- a musician of great but unknown talent. He stood on a street corner and began to play. Those who stopped to listen could not tear themselves away, and soon a large crowd stood enthralled by the glorious music whose equal they had never heard. Before long they were moving to its rhythm, and the entire

street was transformed into a dancing mass of humanity. A deaf man walking by wondered: Has the world gone mad? Why are the townspeople jumping up and down, waving their arms and turning in circles in middle of the street? “Chassidim,” concluded the Baal Shem Tov, “are moved by the melody that issues forth from every creature i n G-d’s creation. If this makes them appear mad to those with less sensitive ears, should they therefore cease to dance?” From Be’er HaChassidut by Eliezer Steinman; from the Hebrew by Yanki Tauber, the content editor of Chabad.org. Reprinted from the Judaism Website Chabad.org

Sunlight: A Natural Way to Fight Stress
Learn the benefits of a little time in the sun. Stress is an inevitable fact of life. However, you can fight it naturally: simply step outside on a sunny day. Read on for a list of reasons to let the sunshine in. Sunlight Boosts Serotonin Researchers from the Baker Heart Research Institute in Melbourne found that levels of serotonin—a neurotransmitter that regulates appetite, sleep, memory, and mood—are lower during the winter than the summer. The research team noted that the only factor that affected participants’ moods was the amount of sunlight they were exposed to on any given day. More sunlight meant better moods; less sunlight lead to symptoms of depression. The study suggests that low levels of serotonin directly correlate with seasonal affective disorder, which most often occurs during winter months. Sunlight Can Reduce Surgery Pain and Stress Researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University conducted a study to see if sunlight affected the moods and pain medication usage of patients undergoing surgery.
Sunlight shuts off the body’s production of melatonin, a hormone produced at night that makes you feel drowsy. Constant exposure to sunlight can help your body maintain its circadian rhythm. Your circadian rhythm is a 24-hour cycle that regulates biochemical, physiological, and behavioral processes and makes you feel tired when it’s dark outside. Going outside for 15 minutes at the same time every day, preferably in the morning, tells your body that it’s no longer nighttime. Sunlight that’s unhindered by sunglasses will reach the brain’s pineal gland more easily and signal it to stop releasing melatonin. Sunlight Can Reduce Cancer Risks Studies have linked vitamin D, known as the “sunshine vitamin,” to protection against cancer. It’s also linked to improvements in bone health and overall mortality. Neurological, cardiovascular, and immune diseases are associated with vitamin D deficiency. By increasing your exposure to sunlight, you can decrease your risk for these diseases. Vitamin D combined with other cancer treatments also tends to improve the patient’s prognosis.
They found that patients who were placed in bright rooms reported less perceived stress and took less medication per hour than patients in dim rooms. This study also suggests that even indirect exposure to sunlight (i.e. through a window) can improve one’s mood. Natural Daylight Can Improve Sleep

Sudoku - Easy Level
Sudoku - Hard Level
There are three engineers in a car; an electrical engineer, a chemical engineer and a Microsoft engineer. Suddenly the car just stops by the side of the road, and the three engineers look at each other wondering what could be wrong. The electrical engineer suggests the electronics of the car be removed down to its parts and then try to trace where a fault might have occurred. The chemical engineer, not knowing much about cars, suggests that may be the fuel is becoming emulsified and getting blocked somewhere. Then, the Microsoft engineer, not knowing much about anything, comes up with a suggestion, “Why don’t we close all the windows, get out, get back in, open the windows again? Maybe it’ll work!?”
Abraham Lincoln created the Secret Service the day before he died! When most people think of the Secret Service, they think of the agents who follow the president and protect him from assassination attempts. This would make it pretty ironic that the Secret Service was created the day before the first presidential assassination. However, Lincoln created the Secret Service not for presidential security detail, but for investigating counterfeiting. This is still the main responsibility for the Secret Service. Counterfeiting was a huge problem during the Lincoln administration; as much as â...” of American money was counterfeit. There was no FBI at the time, so there was no police force to enforce federal laws. On April 14, 1865, Lincoln ordered the creation of the Secret Service of Division of the Department of the Treasury just hours before his fateful visit to Ford’s Theatre the next day. The FBI, ICE, ATF, and IRS have since taken on many of the duties originally assigned to the Secret Service. The Secret Service still investigates counterfeiting to this day, though that work is often overshadowed by the Uniformed Division in charge of protection duties.
