Guard Kills Jewish Man Screaming "Allahu Akbar"
Police say Israeli security guard has shot and killed a Jewish man at the back of the Western Wall plaza early Friday after apparently suspecting him of being a Palestinian militant about to carry out an attack.
Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said the guard “fired a number of shots” at the man, a 46-year-old Israeli, who appeared suspicious. The guard told police the man shouted “Allahu Akbar” - “God is great!” in Arabic - and had his hands in his pockets. Arab militants often shout that phrase before carrying out an attack.

The Miraculous Recovery of a Child from Clifton NJ
Rephael Yoel Ozer, an adorable two year old toddler residing in Clifton, NJ, was hit and crushed by a car four months ago. His injuries were so severe that doctors r”l did give him much of a chance. Now, his family released a video detailing his miraculous recovery.
On February 5th 2013 a driver suffered a medical condition, lost control of his vehicle, jumped the curb and plowed into a number of cars that were parked in driveways. Baby Rephael Yoel Ozer was standing next to his mothers vehicle waiting to be put in when the careening car pinned him between the two vehicles, crushing him.
His injuries were so severe and doctors described them in unthinkable terms, pegging little hope in the child’s survival.
Today, four months later, Rephael Yoel regained almost all his fine motor skills and although his path to a complete recovery is still long he has B”H made significant improvements.
Watch what the wonders of Tefillah, Tzedakkah and doing extra mitzvos accomplished. Hashem heard and performed a real life miracle!

Boeing Business Jet Aborts Landing in Heavy Rain
From the author: "Boeing Business Jet Aborts Landing in Heavy Rain - The approach flown was a CAT I ILS (Category 1 Instrument Landing System). I could see the rain column approach from the other side of the field so I got out my phone camera from the jump seat. You can hear the GPWS (ground proximity warning system) announce minimums at 200' AGL (above ground level), and shortly after all visibility is lost due to rain. You do not hear the "50" foot call out during the touch and go, but it had to be close. The HUD (heads-up display) really provides incredible center-line tracking, although you can't see the symbology from the camera angle.
Ultimately, we had plenty of fuel on board and we where given radar vectors back for another approach. In just 15 minutes the rain had passed and the sun was coming out."
An instrument landing system (ILS) is a ground-based instrument approach system that provides precision guidance to an aircraft approaching and landing on a runway, using a combination of radio signals and, in many cases, high-intensity lighting arrays to enable a safe landing during instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), such as low ceilings or reduced visibility due to fog, rain, or blowing snow. Category I has the Minimums at 200 feet.
A head-up display or heads-up display - also known as a HUD - is any transparent display that presents data without requiring users to look away from their usual viewpoints. The origin of the name stems from a pilot being able to view information with the head positioned "up" and looking forward, instead of angled down looking at lower instruments.
There's a difference between a Decision Height, exhibited in this video, and a Minimum Descent Altitude. A DH is the altitude where you decide whether to continue or not, and allows for a margin to re-configure the aircraft to go-around if necessary. An MDA is an altitude floor, one that you cannot go below unless you

Ancient Jewish Library Welcomed to Museum in Moscow
Russian President Vladimir Putin visited Moscow's Jewish Museum and Tolerance Centre as an important collection of ancient Jewish books, the Schneerson library, arrived on Thursday. The President familiarised himself with the most valuable parts of the collection, which contains some 12,000 books and 50,000 rare documents dating from the 18th to the beginning of the 20th century.
The transfer follows years of debate with the New York City based Chabad-Lubavitch Hasidic community who demand the return of the library. The movement argues they are the right owners of the books, as the author of the collection, Schneerson, headed the organisation after moving to the United States. However the transfer of the Schneerson library was welcomed by the Chief Rabbi of Russia, Berl Lazar, who called it a big day for Russian Jews.
Click Here for Aguch's (Agudas Chasidei Chabad) official statement on the matter.
Russia has maintained that it will keep the collection, saying that it is a state property and part of Russian culture. The matter got into the media spotlight in January after a US judge ordered Russia to pay $50,000 (€37,000) per day until it returns the library. The decision to move the collection to Jewish Museum and Tolerance Centre was proposed by Putin himself this year during a meeting of the Presidential Council for Interethnic Relations.
Moscow's Jewish Museum and Centre of Tolerance was opened in November 2012, with Israeli President Shimon Peres travelling to Moscow for its inauguration. It features several interactive displays regarding the Jewish peoples' long and tumultuous place in Russian history. Now home to the the Schneerson library collection, the museum's new library department operates as a part of the Russian State Library.

Teen Hitches Ride on Back of 30-foot Whale Shark
When Florida teen Chris Kreis came face to face with a 30-foot, 50,000-pound whale shark while fishing in the Gulf of Mexico last week, he knew exactly what to do: hop on the animal’s back and go for a spin. The incredible encounter happened last Saturday 30 miles off the Captiva's coast, where the 19-year-old ran into the boat-sized fish. Kreis jumped on the shark's back, grabbed hold of its fin and rode it for about 20 seconds.
Whale sharks are the largest fish in the sea reaching lengths of 40 feet or more. Despite their fierce name and appearance, they mostly feed on plankton and small fish.
