Paralleling the journey of Jewish life that seems to frequently pass through the gates of The Mir Yeshiva, Shira Choir collaborated with Israel’s legendary musical arranger Ruvi Banet at the annual Mir dinner to perform “Der Bahn” (The Train), a tempo-rubato march that rises and falls as a kaleidoscopic montage of life’s most rewarding travels.
This treasured song was composed decades ago by Kaufman Yudelson, a famous composer from the Modzitz courthouse. He graced Warsaw before WW2, and was known as Rosh Hachazanim (Chief of the Cantors) for his timeless compositions that still honor headline events generations later.

Charedi Protesters Clash with Cops at Army Draft Demos
For a third night in a row, hundreds of extremist Charedi men took to major roads, thoroughfares and highways around the country Thursday afternoon to block traffic in protest at the arrest of yeshiva student by the military police for failing to report for military service to IDF enlistment offices.
Protests took place beginning at 15:30 in Jerusalem, Bnei Brak, the Shilat Junction close to Modiin, Elad, Kanut Junction close to Gadera, Beit Shemesh, and other locales, during which some 31 protesters were arrested by police for disturbing the public order.
Police used a water cannon and mounted police to disperse the protesters, but shortly after each attempt by the police to clear the junction, the protesters would return once again and continue to block the traffic.
The protests were stepped up Thursday after police extended the arrest of the 24-year-old draft dodger for an additional 10 days.
Police said prior to the protests that while it respects the “freedom to protest,” it “will not enable disturbers of the peace to violate the law and endanger the lives” of Israeli citizens.
Many in the ultra-Orthodox community shun the mandatory military service that applies to most Israelis, and the community has historically enjoyed blanket exemptions in favor of religious seminary studies. But some in the religious community refuse to even appear at the recruiting office to request such exemptions in protest against the state.
Without getting an exemption, those Charedi men are legally considered draft dodgers and open to military detention, as was the case with the 24-year-old yeshiva student earlier this week.

Joint Subcommittee Hearing on Israel, Palestinians & UN
House Foreign Affairs Committee Joint Subcommittee Hearing on Israel, the Palestinians, and the United Nations: Challenges for the New Administration. Feb. 2, 2017.
Chairman Smith on the hearing: “The UNESCO resolution last year that ignored Jewish and Christian ties to the Temple Mount, the U.N. General Assembly vote in December singling out Israeli settlements while minimizing egregious acts of terrorism and the stream of anti-Israel resolutions that regularly emanate from the so-called Human Rights Council are all evidence of a double-standard emblematic of systemic problems that must be addressed at the U.N. This hearing will examine prospects for a new accountability agenda at the U.N. and its agencies, and foster recommendations on how the United States under the Trump Administration can lead on much needed reforms.”
Debate on Palestinian "Refugees" in U.S. Congress - Witness Mr. Hillel Neuer, Executive Director UN Watch; Virginia Congressman Gerry Connolly (D); and The Honorable Robert Wexler, President S. Daniel Abraham Center for Middle East Peace.

Cops and Cowboys Chase Cow
A small North Texas town's police department posted video Friday of a bizarre police chase that involved multiple units, cowboys and one unruly bovine suspect.
According to news reports the video was from an incident on Thursday, Police said they were "reminded why Weatherford is the 'Cutting Horse Capital of the World.' "
The police dash cam showed the cow trotting nonchalantly down the road before bolting as police cruisers draw near. Then out of nowhere a cowboy rides into view, riding like a bat out of hell, with rope in hand lassoing above his head as he tries to ride the cow down.
The chase is briefly obscured from view as the police cruiser navigates traffic, trying to catch up to the rider and errant cow, when a second cowboy then rides into view. Shortly thereafter one of the riders subdues the cow and the video ends.
The Weatherford police thanked the two cowboys who assisted them in "resolving this matter."
