Achieving Greatness There was a plan in Pre-war Europe to initiate a Yeshivah only for the Metziunim; the cream of the crop. It was thought that all the best masmidim from all the Yeshivos would be gathered to create a Yeshivah which would cultivate the future Gaonim and Gedolim of tomorrow’s Klal Yisroel. Rav Hutner was a young bachur at the time and approached the Alter of Slabdodka to discuss his plan of joining this new Yeshivah where the greatest minds of all Europe would come together and study Torah, something like never before. The Alter smiled at the young Rav Hutner and took him to the window. “Look out of the window” The Alter said gently. “What do you see?” “A river,” answered Rav Hutner. The Alter continued, “Why do you want to go to this Yeshivah where there will only be the best bachurim? You would do better for Klal Yisroel by

jumping right now into this river rather than going to that Yeshivah.” Naturally after hearing such impassioned and strong words from the Alter, Rav Hutner never attended that Yeshivah. Rav Hutner though did not fully comprehend the Alter’s reasoning behind his strong opposition. Only years later, did Rav Hutner grasp clarification when it became known that almost all of the bachurim who attended that Yeshivah left Yiddishkeit and embraced the socialist and communist lifestyle. The Alter of Slabdoka understood that Torah learning has to be inclusive and it is not just for those that are the best. Many of Klal Yisroel’s great Gedolim were not born geniuses but they sat day and night with perseverance to become who they are now. Greatness is not a thing which is acquired easily, the climb may be grueling but with determination and strength all of us can get there!

Another Deadly Chemical in Our Food Supply
Brominated vegetable oil (BVO) is vegetable oil with bromine added to it. Brominated vegetable oil is used as an emulsifier in citrus-flavored soft drinks to help the flavors stay suspended in the drink and to produce a cloudy appearance. Just look at Mountain Dew, for example. The hazy appearance within its very unnatural fluorescent color comes from BVO. Patented by chemical companies as a flame retardant, and banned in food throughout Europe and Japan, BVO has been added to soft drinks for decades in North America. Now, some scientists have a renewed interest in this little-known ingredient. Is BVO Safe? Overall, this is probably not a safe additive. Even the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations imposes restrictions on the use of BVO in the United States. Because there are questions about its safety, an obvious restriction is to limit the amount of BVO in soft drinks. The FDA limits the use of BVO to 15 parts per million in fruit-flavored beverages. The FDA labels BVO as an “interim food additive” which is “a food-use substance whose safety has been called into question.” The FDA has classified only four substances as interim food additives: BVO, acrylonitrile, mannitol, and saccharin. The European Union, however, isn’t messing around with an interim labeling. They think it’s dangerous and they’ve excluded it from the current EUapproved additives list.
as “Brominated Thyroid.” In a sense, this is a type of thyroid goiter, although the effects are more subtle than what you will see with a true iodine deficiency. This condition was originally seen in animal studies testing flame retardants. After the studies, the animals involved often developed low thyroid secondary to bromine leaching into their bloodstreams. Additionally, bromine is considered a potential carcinogen and causes a number of problems such as headaches, fatigue, and possibly even heart and kidney issues. An interesting condition is called Bromoderma. These are painful skin sores that were first seen in young adults who consume large amounts of citrus-flavored drinks.Bromoderma normally occurs in people with bromine or bromide sensitivities. However, it can occur with ingestion of large amounts of bromine from certain soft-drinks. The FDA Says A Little BVO is Safe As mentioned above, the FDA allows 15 parts per million of BVO in fruit-flavored beverages. This level was determined in 1977 by reports from a soda-industry group. But some scientists say that limit is based on data that is thin and several decades old. Considering that sodas are a substantial source of calories for teenagers, scientists insist BVO needs further investigation.
BVO Potential Health Problems Ingesting bromine increases its concentration in your body. As it builds up, it begins to compete with iodine and causes relative iodine deficiency. The result is a condition sometimes referred to

the Segulah with the Power of Torah Vayeshev
ONE POSITIVE OUTCOME LEADS TO ANOTHER We received the following message a few days ago:
BRILLIANT|845-782-7988
Hello there, I was pleased to see my story published a few weeks ago, about how my daughter was suffering from a mystery illness. We scheduled an appointment to a specialist, but through the power of “Kollel Chatzos” her ailment disappeared and we saved the cost of the doctor’s visit which ironically, was the same amount we had pledged to “Kollel Chatzos”. In appreciation, I would like to tell you that the story did not end there either as a few days ago we realized another return on our investment. For many years, my daughter has been afflicted with a rash on her hands for which we had sought the advice from many distinguished doctors and dermatologists who prescribed a variety of creams and ideas, natural and medicinal, but all without results. We tried so much that my daughter just got used to it and we gave up on a cure. Now,

Rolex watches didn’t become expensive until the 1980’s
Vitality shows in not only the ability to persist but the ability to start over.
When asked to think of a high quality watch there are few people who wouldn’t instantly say Rolex, but have you ever wondered why Rolex watches are so expensive and what it exactly is that makes them so prestigious? Rolex began in 1905 in London and later moved to Switzerland. They have always produced high quality watches, many times making new innovations that kept them on top, but until the 1980’s they were nowhere near as expensive and notable as today. It was in this time that the “yuppie” movement began, which was a new class of young, wealthy people who began purchasing new flashy materials to display their wealth and newfound status. When the yuppies began buying watches, all heads turned to Rolex, which in turn caused a massive price increase because of the demand. There are several myths associated with Rolex that are not even true. One common misconception is that all Rolex watches are handmade. Rolex watches are mass-produced by machines patented by Rolex that make around one million watches per year. Another common myth is that Rolex is more accurate, which would be great for them but sadly, it’s just as accurate as any other watch set correctly. In fact, what really makes Rolex so expensive is the name and the jewelry, not the watch itself.
