The Nigun Shamiel
In honor of Yud Shevat, the Yahrtzeit of the Rebbe Rayatz of Lubavitch, a song has been written to one of the Lubavitcher Rebbe's Nigunim.
After Tzivos Hashem produced the “Tiku Bachodesh” video for the Elul rally, and it went viral, it proved to be something that adults and children liked and listen to over and over again. There was one unanimous request: “we want more.”
So Tzivos Hashem approached Rabbi Shloime Sternberg the writer of the “Tiku” song with the request, to write another song.
It took many long hours, but for the very first time young children (and children at heart) can know understand the meaning of the soulful niggun.
The song is song three times. The first time tells the story Shamiel, a King who lived high up in mountains, from where he ruled his kingdom with pride. He defeated his enemies in fight after fight, none could even come close because of his height. However that changed when they tricked him into a false call for peace, to which he agreed to come down, and when he did he was enslaved and imprisoned. Sitting in prison his pain knew no bounds, yet his spirit is high for he is confident and sure that he'll be more victorious than before.
The second time the song is the Nimshul that Chassidim compared this story, to the story of the Neshoma, who was once standing as one with her father on high, serving him with fear and with love. The Neshama was safe and secure. Till it was sent down to the lowest of low, where countless distractions are drowning the soul. From there the Neshoma cries, how she longs for her source up on high. Yet she knows that this Yerida will bring her closer to Hashem than before.
The third time the song tells the story, how it relates to today. Describing the times of the past, when children had the zechus to participate in farbrengens and rallies, they would see and hear their Rebbe whose devotion to them was so easy to feel, and it made their hiskashrus so deep and so real. But then their connection was challenged by a darkness so strong, "Ad mosai, Hashem, this is it taking so long," they cry.

Yitzchak Meir & Malchus - Shabbos Medley - Music Video
לכבוד צאת מארז השבת שלו, מפתיע יצחק מאיר בקליפ מושקע של הפיוט החסידי המזוהה ביותר עם יצירתו: י-ה אכסוף.
הפעם, מאיר לא שר את השיר במנגינה המסורתית הידועה, אלא בחר לאגד את מיטב הלחנים שיצאו במהלך השנים לפיוט נפלא זה. הבית הפותח מושר בלחנו של הרב יוסף צבי ברייער, מלחין חצר חסידות בעלזא. הבית השני בלחנו של יהודה גרין. הבית השלישי בלחן הפופולארי של אלי ביר והבית החותם בלחנו העליז של פינקי וובר שלרגל ההפקה הולבש כאן במילים חדשות.
ביצירה החדשה מארח יצחק מאיר לראשונה את מקהלת 'מלכות' החסידית, תחת שרביטו וניצוחו של המעבד פנחס ביכלר, העוטפת את היצירה בצלילים. בשיאה הוא חובר לדואט אל מי שביצע במקור את י-ה אכסוף המפורסם בגירסת 'לחיים-טיש', ילד הפלא אהרון הלוי הוא הזמר מוטי ויזל (בילדתו שמו האמיתי נשמר בסוד. השם אהרון הלוי ניתן לו כשם כיסוי). על העיבוד והתזמור הופקד מעבד-הפלא בני לאופר בנו הצעיר של משה לאופר.

Ice Climber Scales Frozen Niagara Falls
Canadian climber Will Gadd has become the first man to ever climb the frozen ice of Niagara Falls. As the popular tourist area experiences such heavy ice in winter, it is closed to the public. Gadd, 47, already world-renowned for his feats, used the opportunity to take on the ice of the iconic 180-foot high wonder of nature, working his way up just feet away from the Horseshoe Falls.

Streit's Matzo Factory Closing After 90 Years
Earlier this month, Streit’s matzo factory announced it is selling its four converted tenement buildings and leaving New York City’s Lower East Side, 90 years after it opened in 1925. The neighborhood was once home to hundreds of thousands of Jews, not far from the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory and other large Manhattan manufacturers. Now, the area around Streit’s on Rivington Street is home to stores like Teany, the health food cafe owned by electronica DJ Moby.
Today, Streit’s is still owned and operated by the descendants of founder Aron Streit. The family expected to stay forever. For years, they resisted offers of tens of millions of dollars to sell the buildings. When the Jewish community left the Lower East Side and Streit’s stayed, the brand gained legitimacy from its continued association with the old neighborhood. With time, it became one of the most prominent matzo makers in the country.
Walking around the 80-year-old ovens, it seems miraculous the factory lasted so long. The smell of toast and smoke hangs in the factory air, where the same employees worked for many decades on increasingly ancient machines. “I thought we would be here a lifetime,” says Aron Yagoda, executive vice president of Streit’s, and Aron Streit’s great grandson.
The family won’t say what they received for their buildings, but they nearly agreed to sell for $25m in 2008, and Lower East Side real estate has only grown pricier since. Streit’s is not, however, merely cashing out. “I’d rather be the generation that moved Streit’s than the last generation of Streit’s,” says Yagoda. The money from the sale will be spent largely on making Streit’s a stronger company. “Our goal is to go from the most inefficient, out-of-date facility to the most efficient, state-of-the-art facility in the world” says Gross. As Streit’s decides not to turn into a charming old museum, it will, at least, retain the vitality of a business that wants to survive.

Funerals of IDF Soldiers Killed in Hezbollah Ambush
Maj. Yochai Kalangel, 25, who was killed in Wednesday's Hezbollah attack against IDF soldiers near the Lebanese border was laid to rest at Mount Herzl Military Cemetery in Jerusalem on Thursday.
Thousands of people arrived to honor Kalangel who was killed along with St.-Sgt. Dor Haim Nini when Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon attacked IDF vehicles traveling in the village of Ghajar in the Galilee panhandle with Russian-made Kornet anti-tank missiles. Kalangel grew up in the West Bank settlement of Elazar in Gush Etzion, and leaves behind a wife, Tali, and their one-year-old child. He is one of six siblings, and on Independence Day this year he was awarded a General Staff commendation for excellence.

Police to Google: Disable Cop Tracking in Waze
A law enforcement campaign to compel Google Inc. to disable a feature in its popular Waze traffic app that lets drivers warn others about nearby police activity shifted Wednesday when a sheriffs’ organization openly complained that the app not only puts officers’ lives at risk, it also interferes with the ability to write speeding tickets.
The National Sheriffs’ Association, which had focused its complaints about Waze on police safety after the fatal shootings of two New York City police officers in December, expanded its campaign in a new statement criticizing Google’s software as hampering the use of speed traps.
Waze app, which operates like a free GPS navigation tool, users can tag the locations of parked police vehicles, accidents, congestion, traffic cameras, potholes and more, so that other drivers using Waze are warned as they approach the same location.

Remembering Auschwitz: 70 Years After Liberation
Tuesday marks 70 years since the Auschwitz concentration camp was liberated by Soviet forces during WW2. 300 holocaust survivors are expected to travel to Poland to visit the site of the former Nazi death camp for commemorations. The Nazis killed more than 1.1 million people at Auschwitz, most of whom were Jewish.
Chilling drone footage has been released showing the sheer scale of Auschwitz concentration camp ahead of Tuesday’s 70th anniversary marking the liberation of the Nazi regime’s largest death camp. The eerie video taken over the weekend shows an aerial view of the 40 square kilometers of inter-connected camps that imprisoned millions in southern Poland during the Second World War.
Included in the video are the 28 brick buildings that housed between 700 and 1000 prisoners at any one time, as well as the large villa that was the home of notorious camp commandant Rudolf Höss and his family during the four years he spent as the camp’s chief.
Also featured, is a bird’s eye view of Birkenau or Auschwitz ii, the extension in Auschwitz that was constructed from scratch in 1941 to facilitate mass murder.
Over one million people are said to have been killed at Auschwitz from the day it opened in May 1940, until the time it was liberated on 27 January 1945.
An estimated 90 percent of these victims were Jews, with Poles, Romani gypsies, Soviet Prisoners, and others deemed “undesirable” making up the hundreds of thousands of non-Jewish victims that were killed at the hands of the Nazis

He would come out for Neiros Chanukah. The Chasdim composed a long song for Hanieros Halalu so that he would stay out longer and enable them to be together with him for that much longer!

Lingering Stigma of the Holocaust in Poland 70 Years On
Decades After Auschwitz, Past Horrors Haunt A Polish Town
The 70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, to be attended by world leaders and survivors, raises painful questions for residents of Oswiecim where Nazi occupiers created one of the most relentless extermination machines in history, claiming the lives of an estimated 1.5 million people.
Seven decades on, Oswiecim is trying to put the bleak past behind it, a giant “City of Peace” banner displayed next to the main railway hub, which once saw hundreds of thousands transported in cattle wagons into the camp’s gas chambers.

Inside a Hamster's Cheeks
The BBC's "Pets - Wild at Heart" series is featuring in-depth looks at animals ranging from cats to dogs to hamsters using high-tech photographic methods. A sneak peek at the first episode shows a particularly interesting sequence involving a hungry hamster combined with X-ray imagery. The result is a fascinating inside view of how the industrious rodent is able to pack an obscene amount of food into its cheek pouches.
When faced with a bowl full of nuts and other edible goodies, the golden hamster starts shoving the morsels into its mouth and down the sides. A closeup shows every little strand of fur on its hairy hands. Speeded-up X-ray footage then shows just how much food he can fit down the cheek pouches. "His pouches extend all the way to his hips," explains the narrator.

52 Skydivers Set World Record With Choreographed Jump
An amazing video has emerged of 52 skydivers setting a new world record for a 'Head Up' flight formation over Phoenix, AZ, US. The footage is shot by participant Zachary R Sabel using a helmet-mounted camera.
"Head Up body flight is the most difficult position to balance while being able to build formations"
The challenge, which took place on 22 November 2014, involved around 60 skydivers occupying three separate planes. Their nationalities range from British to American, Russian, Australian, Canadian, Mexican and German.
As they pour out of their aircraft, one after the other and glide through the sky, 52 of them manage to grab each other's hands.Together, they form a remarkable upright display.

Monkey Consoling It's Sad Friend
When they're not swinging from the trees some monkeys can find themselves down in the dumps.
That was clearly the case for little Angelica this week. The monkey was filmed in her enclosure at the Zoological Wildlife Foundation in Miami, Florida, sorrowfully putting one hand to her eyes. But thankfully she had someone to console her, Toby her friend coming to save the day with a bit of loving. The male primate gently puts an arm around his pal. He then proceeds to give her shoulders a massage.
It's not known why Angelica had hit such a low, but maybe it was something to do with the outfit she was wearing. She and Toby appear dressed in miniature summer ensembles.
