Capto Consulting - Insights: "A Beautiful Mind, Nash introduced the distinction between cooperative games, in which binding agreements can be made, and non-cooperative games, where binding agreements are not always feasible. He developed an equilibrium concept for non-cooperative game scenarios that is called the Nash Equilibrium.

Simply stated, he proved that companies that work together will discover that the sum of the parts can be better when combined effectively than if they work at cross-purposes. "

Ask the Rabbi, JewishAnswers.org

Ask the Rabbi, JewishAnswers.org: "At what age does God consider a child to be responsible for his/her own soul and not the parents?

Answer: That is an important question. A young boy begins his accountability at thirteen, while a young girl begins at twelve. However, according to most authorities, God withholds punishment of any wrong doing until the individual is twenty, essentially giving a young teenager time to “get their act together.”

Question: What source do “most authorities” use to come to this conclusion?

Answer: There are three primary sources for this conclusion. The Babylonian Talmud, Tractate Shabbat 89b, Jerusalem Talmud, Tractate Bikurim Chapter 4 paragraph 1 and the Midrash Rabbah Section Chayeh Sarah chapter 58. Maimonides (Commentary to Mishnah, Sanhedrin 7:4) and Nachmanides (in his writings “Gate of Payment”) both quote these citations. The main debate amongst the authorities is whether the quotations only apply to spiritual excises or all forms of punishment."

Divrei Ben Zoma

Divrei Ben Zoma: "Pascal's famous wager and since its flaws are plainly clear to me, I find it difficult to comprehend why many theologians use this as a defense of their faith (sometimes a main defense). The obvious problems seem to have been discussed ad nauseam such as the ignoring of many other mutually exclusive possible worlds in which it would be "infinitely" detrimental to hold a belief in any particular deity and may be "infinitely" beneficial to hold no theistic beliefs whatsoever.

I would like to bring up another possible problem with Pascal’s Wager, namely the issue of something being "infinitely" beneficial and "infinitely" detrimental. It is on the basis of appealing to some sort of "infinite" reward/punishment that Pascal argues that no benefits gained from a life of non-belief in a particular deity or religion (particularly Christianity for Pascal) can offset the potential gain or loss in the afterlife. I contend that such an understanding is not necessarily the case."

Sitting on the Fence

Sitting on the Fence: "because I believed that the Torah was true and therefore felt that it was wrong not to keep it. Despite the tremendous difficulties that it involved, I took on one mitzvah at a time until I was fully shomer mitzvos, or since of course no one can keep all the taryag mitzvos, as observant as possible.

As tznius--or to a lesser extent, the equivalent for men, yiddishe levush--is the ultimate external representation of ones beliefs to the world, I viewed this mitzvah as particularly important. Therefore, I was extremely bothered by frum people who did not keep tznius properly. I viewed frum people who believed in the halachic system, including the principle of "minhag yisrael Torah hee", yet dressed in a manner totally inconsistent with halacha, as the ultimate hypocrites."

Three Jews, Four Opinions

Three Jews, Four Opinions: "On the other hand, liberal Judaism far too often reduces this great and complex moral and spiritual legacy to simplistic ethical rules, trivialized rituals, and childish stories. An impoverished religious core is often surrounded by religiously peripheral - albeit important - issues like cultural Judaism, support for Israel, the Holocaust, anti-semitism, and social action."

Rationally Speaking

Rationally Speaking: "Nussbaum was conducted by Solomon Asch to explore the effects of conformity. In this case subjects were shown, for instance, images of lines of different lengths and were asked to make judgments about their relative lengths. Unbeknownst to them, a number of confederates were pretending to participate in the experiment, but in reality gave coordinated wrong answers to the questions. Astonishingly, a number of subjects began to agree with the confederates, even though it was very clear that they were agreeing to the wrong answer."

Finding the Spark in Creative Writing | Education.com

Finding the Spark in Creative Writing | Education.com: "It’s no secret: creative writing is challenging. While older writers have picked up techniques over time to jumpstart the creative process and combat bouts of writer’s block, kids lack the firsthand experience and a well of tools to propel them into a world of imagination. How, then, can you help spark your child’s creative inner flame?

“In my experience, I find that students get stuck because they don't have a ton of experiences and reflective reference points in their lives yet,” says Barbara Whitlock, a teacher of online classes. While accumulating these life encounters takes time, there are ways, in the meantime, to encourage kids to experience the world around them and infuse what they see into their writing. Here are some ideas from teachers and writers to help spark the imagination."

School District Proposes Social Media Policy for Teachers — BlogWorld & New Media Expo Blog: "School District Proposes Social Media Policy for Teachers
By Julie on September 14, 2011 VIEW COMMENTS
After the English Teacher at a Philadelphia high school was suspended for things she said about her students on her blog, it made schools take a closer look at their policies and propose a social media policy.
The teacher has since won her court case and is allowed to teach again, but the whole situation definitely taught the schools that they need a more detailed policy for teachers to follow.
Tuesday night, the Central Bucks school board in Pennsylvania proposed a new social media policy."

But given the fact that Kutcher has 7.6 million followers on Twitter and is so active in social media (I still remember staying up way past my bedtime to watch him reach 1 million Twitter followers before CNN. That was so much fun), he felt he could keep the lines of communication open and set the record straight anytime he needed to."

We Are What We Are About to Become « TheWritersCafe.org: " quick to point out, that there may well be some very specific mitzvot, (lets say the prohibition of  shatnez, the mixture of wool and cotton in the same garment) that simply require someone to technically do the mitzvah properly without understanding the reasoning behind it.

I spend a good deal of thought and time explaining these details because even though I might hold myself to a standard which requires a mindfulness in doing the mitzvot, it may indeed be possible, and maybe even likely that there are those who in their observance will place a greater emphasis on the “how to” component of the performance of the mitzvah as opposed to the why one performs the mitzvah and as  to the proper thought which one should have while performing the mitzvah.

Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows 2.7 million jobs remained unfilled in the U.S. in August, and employers are reporting having a hard time finding skilled workers to add to their payroll.

ManpowerGroup's 2011 Talent Shortage Survey, released earlier this summer, found that 34% of employers are experiencing difficulties filling positions due to lack of available talent. Of this group, 24% of employers said they aren't finding candidates available in their markets, and 22% reported applicants lack the technical competencies or "hard" skills required "

The Liberty Papers

The Liberty Papers: "red flag no matter who the president is or what your political persuasion. President Obama is demanding that congress pass his “American Jobs Act” in front of supportive crowds of people who I am sure have taken the time to read the whole bill and understand its contents. This bill should be passed “immediately” and with “No games, no politics, no delays,” so sayeth our dear leader.

I can’t help but think of another piece of legislation that had to be passed “immediately” and “without delay” nearly ten years ago in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks of 9/11. The piece of legislation I am referring to of course was the USA PATRIOT Act. I mean what’s not to like? The bill has the words “USA” and “PATRIOT” in them and would make our country safer because the law would give law enforcement the tools needed to fight terrorism."

Our Blogrolling Policy | Popehat

Our Blogrolling Policy | Popehat: "Our blogroll contains two arbitrary categories: bloggers, and adoption blogs. “Bloggers” is self-explanatory.  Ken, who is interested in the subject of international adoption and writes about it occasionally, maintains the “Adoption blogs” category.  A former category, “Friends,” consisted fellow travelers, hobbyists, and people we know, actually or in the internet sense, who may or may not have been bloggers.  That category was folded up and removed, because it implied two things which may have been untrue: that we weren’t “friends” in the internet sense with others on our blogroll (sometimes we are), or that our “friends” were more “little buddies,” whose sites we linked out of a sense of obligation.  Nothing could have been further from the truth.  Each site on our blogroll stands, lives, or dies on its own merits."

Finding and Keeping your Bashert by Rabbi Shafier

Finding and Keeping your Bashert by Rabbi Shafier: "a good marriage isn’t necessarily a match of two similar individuals. It is a union of a man and woman, vastly different in temperament, emotionality, frame of reference, and priorities, each one with different strengths and weaknesses. In a successful marriage, the couple completes one another, so that his deficiencies are compensated for by her strong points, her shortcomings filled in by his positive attributes, and the whole is much greater than the parts."

International terrorist group targets nanotech researchers – Boing Boing

International terrorist group targets nanotech researchers – Boing Boing: "group's manifesto said is key to the university's plan to promote research projects that "are relevant for the progress of nanobioindustry within the country." The explosion also wounded a nearby colleague, Alejandro Aceves López, director of the university's graduate school of engineering and science.

In the group's online post (written in Spanish) claiming credit for the latest bombing, the terrorists complained about the growing number of nanotechnology experts in Mexico, which it estimated at 650"

International terrorist group targets nanotech researchers – Boing Boing

International terrorist group targets nanotech researchers – Boing Boing: " Craig Cormick—the public awareness manager at Australia's Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research, and the person who invited me to the 6th Science Center World Congress—leaned over during a conference session and showed me this story on his blackberry. I had to double check and make sure it wasn't a sketchy email forward.

But the truth is that, sometimes, anti-science sentiment coalesces into violent attacks on scientists themselves. That's happened to researchers who work with animal models in the United States. And it's also happening to researchers around the world who are working with nanotechnology. The threat seems to be particularly prevalent in Mexico. In manifestos, the terrorists have said that they're attempting to prevent scientists from inventing self-replicating nanobots that could turn the entire world into "grey goo.""

We the Jewish people are nation of priests, of Kohanim, We are a light unto the other nations.
If we as G-d’s chosen people give up on our land, on our rights and each other, then you can pretty much expect the other nations to follow suit. In biblical time it was Yosef, who sustained the entire planet because of his wisdom. We can not allow unwise leaders, or rabble rousing political activists to control our destiny.
The so called United Nations is clearly not what they may once have been. Perhaps they represent the poor or downtrodden, or perhaps they are simply wallowing in self interest. When all the nations of come to feel the pinch of an economic decline, the most obvious direction to turn to see who is pulling the political strings, is to take a look at the nation with the deepest pockets, and the most liquid of all assest."

Parshat Nitzavim: The Key to Choosing Life

Parshat Nitzavim: The Key to Choosing Life: " Netzavim God sets three choices before us. The unit itself begins with the word re'eh ("see") implying that the choices to follow all have to do with sight. We may choose between life and death, good and bad, and blessing and curse. All of these choices are incorporated into the final exhortation of this unit of verses:

...and you shall choose life

Choosing the positive over the negative is always ultimately the choice of life. The negative side of reality defines the positive, puts it in proportion and gives it balance. The ultimate purpose of evil is to be incorporated into the good, which it reinforces. (More on this in Rabbi Ginsburgh's audio lecture on the Torah portion of  Re'eh). Nevertheless, we always strive to manifest the positive in reality."

Torah and Science: Scientific Progress from the Geocentric to the Heliocentric Descriptions of the Solar System

Torah and Science: Scientific Progress from the Geocentric to the Heliocentric Descriptions of the Solar System: " God that sees man (on earth) as the center, with God, as it were, revolving around man and caring for all of man's needs; or perceiving God as the center, whereby man is obligated to God and His commandments. This philosophical perspective is well-illustrated by a second story.

There was once a Hassidic fund-raiser who set out to raise funds for a worthy cause. Knowing that in certain towns the Misnagdim (opposers of Hassidism) who lived there did not welcome Hassidim, who were considered a near-heretic cult, the Hassid took pains to disguise his Hassidic behavior, realizing that otherwise he would be thrown out of town without a penny. On passing through one such town, he posed as usual as a misnaged. His disguise paid off and he received generous donations, however one of the leaders of the community got inkling that maybe this fundraiser was actually a hassid. In order to try to discover his real identity, he went over to the hassid and asked him very bluntly, "What do you have to say about this Hassidic cult?" The hassid thought for a moment and replied, "The cult"

When disciples of the Holy Ruzhiner, as he is called in Chabad tradition, heard of this apparently heretical scientific discovery that had turned the world inside-out, as it were, they brought the news to their Rebbe, probably anticipating his absolute denial that such a phenomenon could ever be reconciled with true Torah teachings and that anyone who believed such a thing was an heretic."

Torah and Science: Scientific Progress from the Geocentric to the Heliocentric Descriptions of the Solar System: "cience Versus Torah?

It is often asked how the Torah deals with empirically proven scientific discoveries that seem to contradict the traditional teachings of Judaism.

Some of the most blatant of these apparent contradictions are paramount in astronomy. For instance, we find that in the Torah the universe is considered geocentric, with all the heavenly bodies, the sun, the stars and the moon revolving around the earth, whereas modern science clearly teaches that the earth is actually revolving around the sun, the solar system being heliocentric."

FrumFind.org » 2010 » March: "I was raised specifically not to hate specific groups of people because of who they are. I was raised not to judge people by narrow standards, but was rather taught to try to understand the other persons perspective. Not everybody I come across these days shares this outlook of mine. In fact I am starting to believe that qualities such as being non-judgmental are relatively rare.
The other idea I wanted to share is that in our Torah we are taught some absolute values which we must strive to uphold. However we as a Jewish nation are a complex group. We will not always agree on all things, in fact it more likely that we will disagree about almost everything. It is a cornerstone of the American system that people are allowed to express themselves and believe what they want to believe."

Jeffrey Goldberg - Authors - The Atlantic

Jeffrey Goldberg - Authors - The Atlantic: "A False Comparison Between Terror Deaths and Bathtub Deaths
NATIONAL SEP 2 2011, 1:16 PM ET
Via Mike Allen, a Los Angeles Times story raises interesting questions about the effectiveness of post 9/11 homeland security spending, but falls short but failing to question what has become a standard argument used by those who oppose heightened, and therefore more costly, security measures: the specious, "More people are killed by (fill-in-the-blank) than by terrorists, so why do we worry so much about terrorism?" argument.

The "fill-in-the-blank" in the LAT story is bathtub death, but I've also seen pool drownings, kitchen accidents, and gardening mishaps used to make the case that we overreact -- and overspend -- when protecting ourselves from terrorism. The story frames the question this way:
A decade after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, federal and state governments are spending about $75 billion a year on domestic security, setting up sophisticated radio networks, upgrading emergency medical response equipment, installing surveillance cameras and bombproof walls, and outfitting airport screeners to detect an ever-evolving list of mobile explosives."

Water Over Rocks

Water Over Rocks: "taking another look at the Mishnah, an early collection of rabbinic law, and in particular I'm interested in early forms of ethical and moral mandate to care for the poor.  In the first several tractates--Brachot, Peah, and Demai--we find that care for the poor and our obligations to others economic well-being are expressed through the tithing of food and agriculture--a Biblical commandment that was honed and refined by the Sages, living nearly 1500 years after Moses received Torah from God on Mount Sinai.

One question that is often on my mind as I look at these ancient texts--especially today, when the latest Republican Presidential candidate Rick Perry likens the payment of taxes to a system of slavery under Pharaoh--is whether the Sages would have found this adamant opposition to taxes as onerous as certain religio-political leaders like Governor Perry do.  Their worlds are so different and nearly impossible to compare but nevertheless, it's a useful exercise."

Water Over Rocks: "Reform prayerbooks have, additionally, eliminated from the liturgy the paragraph following the Shma (the original Torah text of which appears in next week's Torah portion) mostly because in its articulation of why one ought to observe God's commandments, there is an explicit articulation of the Biblical doctrine of reward and punishment, to wit, if you follow My commandments, I will give rain in its proper season, God warns; but if you don't, the earth you hope to cultivate for sustenance will not yield its fruit in its proper season."

Rambam Yeshiva of NJ expected to open in September | Middlesex News | NJJN: "Almost immediately after the news broke on April 12 that Moshe Aaron Yeshiva High School in South River was planning to close its doors, a group of parents sprang into action to “fill a dire need.”

Within a few weeks, they had devised a plan to establish a new high school, made an offer on a building site, lined up a head of school, recruited more than 50 volunteers to head committees and other functions, and raised about $200,000 in cash, pledges, and in-kind donations to launch the Rambam Yeshiva of New Jersey.

“There’s tremendous interest and we have a lot of dedicated individuals,” said finance committee chair and building committee cochair Dr. Richard Kleinmann of Highland Park, who explained the urgency behind the swift response to the MAYHS announcement (see related article)."

About New Jersey Jewish News | NJJN: "New Jersey Jewish News has been an influential voice in the New Jersey Jewish community for over 60 years. Published by United Jewish Communities (UJC) of MetroWest NJ, NJJN is committed to providing coverage of local, national and world events; explorations of the world of Jewish culture and the arts; supplements the holidays, celebrations and other topics of interest; and a wide array of feature stories.

History
Founded in 1946 as The Jewish News, the paper merged in 1947 with the Newark-based Jewish Times, keeping The Jewish News name. In 1988, reflecting the demographic changes in a community that was moving west to the suburbs, the paper was renamed MetroWest Jewish News.

In 1997, MetroWest Jewish News acquired a second newspaper — The Jewish Horizon — of Union and Somerset counties; a new name, New Jersey Jewish News; and a new focus on Jewish issues statewide.

Today, NJJN publishes five editions, reaching more than 58,000 households."

Frum Find The Place To Find All Things Frum (Blog): New school on the block - The Jewish Standard: "The Jewish Standard
New school on the block - The Jewish Standard: "Amid a turbulent economy, an increasing number of day-school parents are suffering sleepless nights wondering how to scrape up enough money to cover tuition fees of $15,000 or more per child. Some parents are even opting out of day schools altogether.

Lauren Ariev Gellman understands their predicament. As the mother of three elementary-school-aged children, she was often frustrated by the high cost of her children’s day school and the relatively mediocre education it offered.

Instead of complaining, Gellman, of Highland Park, sought a solution. Her response to the “yeshiva tuition crisis” is the Pre-Collegiate Learning Center of New Jersey for eighth through 12th-graders, which will open at the East Brunswick Jewish Center in September.

The nondenominational Jewish school will offer a full curriculum of general and Judaic studies, including many self-paced individual-learning opportunities. The annual tuition, in contrast to many area Jewish high schools that cost upward of $20,000, will be $5,000.""

Higher tech, lower cost is goal of ‘future’ school - The Jewish Standard

Higher tech, lower cost is goal of ‘future’ school - The Jewish Standard: "“The time has long since passed for there to be an alternative to the $15-17,000 it costs to send a child to a Jewish day school.”

“We have a sophisticated financial model,” the founders said in an e-mail, “that indicates that tuition will likely be in the $8,000 to $9,000 range, based on inputs including salaries, building rental, insurance, etc. A LOT of work has gone into that!

“As for scholarships, like the other schools, we will raise outside funds to provide scholarships for families that have experienced a job loss or other such circumstance.”

Yeshivat He’Atid’s projected tuition represents a nearly 40 percent cut over other area day schools. It is a big reason why the new elementary school is generating such excitement while still essentially in the planning stage."

Bat Torah girls high school won’t reopen in September - The Jewish Standard

Bat Torah girls high school won’t reopen in September - The Jewish Standard: "In 2008, the school moved from Suffern, N.Y., to the former Frisch School building in Paramus, renting the space from Frisch (which had moved to new quarters) and subletting some of it to Ben Porat Yosef, an elementary school. The roles were reversed when Ben Porat Yosef took over as principal tenant.

Bat Torah had planned to move to the Jewish Center of Teaneck this summer and prepare 11 classrooms there for the beginning of the school year.

But instead, said Bak, “we have until the end of the month, which is this week, to clear out of the Frisch building. I have invited a few yeshivot to ‘inherit’ whatever items they can use.” The remaining items will be sold."

On July 25, 2011, it was reported that the school would not be opening for the 2011-2012 academic year. Mrs. Miriam Bak, the principal, cited an unexpected drop in 11th grade enrollment and higher than expected moving costs as the reasons for closing."

FrumFind.org » Blog Archive » High Level Ideas Down to the People.: "Joseph however while he was also a righteous person was also closer to the level of the real man in the street sort of Jew. In other words, while Yaakov was clearly a Tzadik close to Hashem, and was thus able to accomplish the will of G-d, Joseph however was closer to the real Jew, who ended up living in Egypt. Now, R. Rosenblatt continued in his explanation of Rabbi Shmuel di Ozeda’s idea, Moshe’s spirituality was closer to that of Yaakov’s in that he was in a sense removed from the every day sensibility of the common Jewish man. Indeed one could imagine (my own thought is being explained here) that in order to be so close to the mind, thoughts and will of G-d, that it indeed must even on some level be a necessary qualification to be somewhat aloof from the mindset of even the most righteous of the common man."
