JURY DUTY SCAM (IDENTITY THEFT) – FBI ALERT]

December 28th, 2009


 w


Jury Duty Scam DO NOT DELETE WITHOUT READING ! This has been verified by the FBI (their link is also included below). Please pass this on to everyone in your email address book. It is spreading fast so be prepared should you get this call. Most of us take those summonses for jury duty seriously, but enough people skip out on their civic duty, that a new and ominous kind of fraud has surfaced. The caller claims to be a jury coordinator. If you protest that you never received a summons for jury duty, the scammer asks you for your Social Security number and date of birth so he or she can verify the information and cancel the arrest warrant. Give out any of this information and bingo; your identity was just stolen.  The fraud has been reported so far in 11 states, including Oklahoma, Illinois, and Colorado This (swindle) is particularly insidious because they use intimidation over the phone to try to bully people into giving information by pretending they are with the court system. The FBI and the federal court system have issued nationwide alerts on their web sites, warning consumers about the fraud. Check it out here: http://www.fbi.gov/page2/june06/jury_scams060206.htm And here: http://www.snopes.com/crime/fraud/juryduty.asp Yep! It’s true Please make sure to pass this on!

Age is beautiful !

December 28th, 2009


 


 

A smile is a window on your face to show that your heart is at home.:-)










Age is beautiful !                 One night, an 87-year-old woman came home from Bingo to find her 92-year-old husband in bed with another woman.  She became violent and ended up pushing him off the balcony of their 20th floor apartment, killing him instantly.  Brought before the court, on the charge of murder, she was asked if she had anything to say in her own defense..  ‘Your Honor,’ she began coolly, ‘I figured that at 92, if he could have sex, he could fly.’      A Doctor was addressing a large audience in Tampa .  ‘The material we put into our stomachs is enough to have killed most of us sitting here, years ago. Red meat is awful.  Soft drinks corrode your stomach lining..  Chinese food is loaded with MSG.  High fat diets can be disastrous, and none of us realizes the long-term harm caused by the germs in our drinking water.  However, there is one thing that is the most dangerous of all and we all have eaten, or will eat it. Can anyone here tell me what food it is that causes the most grief and suffering for years after eating it?’  After several seconds of quiet, a 75-year-old man in the front row raised his hand, and softly said, ‘Wedding Cake.’      Bob, a 70-year-old, extremely wealthy widower, shows up at the Country Club with a breathtakingly beautiful and very sexy 25-year-old blonde-haired woman who knocks everyone’s socks off with her yo uthful sex appeal and charm and who hangs over Bob’s arm and listens intently to his every word.  His buddies at the club are all aghast.  At the very first chance, they corner him and ask, ‘Bob, how’d you get the trophy girlfriend?’  Bob replies, ‘Girlfriend?  She’s my wife!’  They are knocked over, but continue to ask.  ‘So, how’d you persuade her to marry you?’  ‘I lied about my age’, Bob replies. ‘What, did you tell her you were only 50?’  Bob smiles and says, ‘No, I told her I was 90.’      Groups of Americans were traveling by tour bus through Holland .  As they stopped at a cheese farm, a young guide led them through the process of cheese making, explaining that goat’s milk was used.  She showed the group a lovely hillside where many goats were grazing.  ‘These’ she explained, ‘Are the older goats put out to pasture when they no longer produce.’  She then asked, ‘What do you do in America with your old goats?’  A spry old gentleman answered, ‘They send us on bus tours!

A personal request

December 28th, 2009

.ExternalClass .ecxhmmessage P {padding:0px;} .ExternalClass body.ecxhmmessage {font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;} please pray for her…remember her name in shul when you daven..put on facebook for prayer list, anything…..Rabbi Brook was a witness on our ketubaf and his wife was my kallah teacher…they are amazing people and do great things for the students at CSUN.
Shabbat Shalom!
Paras

Dear Friends,

This is Chaya Mushka, the adorable, spunky, spirited daughter of a dear cousin.

Several months ago, Chaya Mushka and her mother prepared for her third birthday. They bought birthday bags and hats, made a pretty cake and spoke about how Chaya Mushka would now be a big girl and light her own Shabbat candle. (It is customary for Jewish girls to begin lighting a single Shabbat candle at this age.) 

At her birthday party, Chaya complained that she didn’t feel well. Nothing could entice her–she looked listlessly at the cake and party favors. Within days, the doctors found a tumor and she was in emergency surgery.

Chaya is receiving the best care medicine has to offer. But it is not enough. She needs more. Since her third birthday, Chaya has not had the chance to light the Shabbat candles as the perfect, complete, healthy Jewish girl she should be.  Each Shabbat has been clouded with the knowledge that she would be back in the hospital shortly, undergoing torturous treatment in the hope that maybe it would banish her wretched illness.

What can we do? We can’t offer medical advice, give her back her 3rd birthday or change the past. But we can change the future. We can light a candle. We can light Shabbat candles in honor of Chaya Mushka and ask G-d that the spiritual energy created by our mitzvah be directed to Chaya Mushka. Jewish mysticism tells us of the unique connection between the physical and spiritual worlds and the everlasting power of every mitzvah.  We should not underestimate the power of our prayers and mitzvot.

Please join me: I am asking you to take on this mitzvah, or any other mitzvah, such as giving charity before candle lighting, wrapping the Tefillin, studying Torah, reciting a prayer or performing deeds of loving kindness, and perform it regularly, in honor of Chaya Mushka.   

And when you do, ask G-d to please, in the merit of all the mitzvot that we are doing in her honor, heal Chaya Mushka bas—daughter of—Chana so she may light her own candle in perfect health.

–Raizel

Why A Mitzvah?
We live in an imperfect world. A beautiful girl named Chaya is sick. And our daily attempts to live good and meaningful lives are not always successful.

The world is not perfect, but we can make it more so. The Torah tells us that every mitzvah brings the world into greater harmony, makes the world a more perfect place. And when we do that mitzvah in honor of Chaya’s recovery, we direct that harmony to her, marshaling the spiritual energy generated by our act to make her more complete. 

Which Mitzvah?
Every single Mitzvah we do generates spiritual energy and adds light to the world. When we do that mitzvah in honor of Chaya Mushka, we ask G-d to direct that spiritual energy toward her recovery. If you already light Shabbat candles, there are so many other things you can do. You can ask others to light candles in Chaya’s honor. You can try to enhance your own candle lighting by being extra careful to light at the right time, or give charity before lighting. You can do acts of kindness, bake Challah, learn Torah, affix mezuzot—our options for mitzvot are limitless. 

Quick Step-by-Step Guide to Candle-Lighting
1. Check local candle lighting time in your area. 2. Prepare the candles, one if you’re single, two if you’re married, and a charity box along with some coins for charity. 3. Begin by remembering others less fortunate–give charity.  4. Now, light the candles. Draw your hands over the flames and toward yourself, bringing the peace and sanctity of Shabbat into your home and your life. 5. Cover your eyes to recite the blessing: Boruch A-toh Ado-noi E-lo-hei-nu Me-lech Ho-olom A-sher Ki-de-sha-nu Be-mitz-vo-sov Vi-tzi-vo-nu Le-had-lik Ner Shel Sha-bos Ko-desh (Blessed are You, Lord our G-d, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments, and commanded us to kindle the light of the holy Shabbat.). 6. Pray for whatever your heart desires. The time of candle lighting is an especially auspicious time for private prayer. Please remember to pray for a complete recovery for Chaya Mushka bat Chana. 7. Uncover your eyes and gaze at the Shabbat lights. Turn to your loved ones and wish them “Shabbat Shalom” or “Good Shabbos.” Embrace the light, peace and joy you have generated, and welcome the Shabbat into your home.
