303 pictures of the new olim from North America and England
Hi Everyone! Congratulations to the 275 olim that made aliyah today from North America and England. The two aliyah flights included 49 families with 122 children and 25 singles. The youngest oleh in the group is 6 weeks old and the oldest oleh is 89 years old. The flight from the USA included 3 dogs and 2 cats. I was at Ben-Gurion airport to greet the new olim. Prior to the arrival of the flights, there was a Rosh Chodesh (Elul) morning prayer in the terminal one arrival building. I took 303 pictures of the historic event and posted them online at: http://www.jr.co.il/pictures/israel/history/2007/a163.htm When the first page appears, press the F11 key to view the full length of the pictures.

Have a Good Month, Chodesh Tov, Jacob

Educational websites about Tisha B'Av
Shalom. Tisha B'Av is the saddest day on the Jewish calendar because of the incredible series of tragedies which occurred on that date throughout Jewish History. Tisha B'Av means "the ninth (day) of the Hebrew month of Av." Tisha B'Av primarily commemorates the destruction of the first and second Temples, both of which were destroyed on the ninth of Av (the first by the Babylonians in 586 B.C.E.; the second by the Romans in 70 C.E.). Although this day is primarily meant to commemorate the destruction of the Temple, it is appropriate to consider on this day the many other tragedies of the Jewish people, many of which occurred on this day, most notably the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492. This year, the fast begins Monday night, July 23, 2007 and continues till after sundown on Tuesday, July 24, 2007. I posted on my website links to 37 educational sites that describe practices, prohibitions, insights and explanations about this sad day in Jewish history. All 37 links have been reviewed / checked this week. http://www.jr.co.il/hotsites/j-hdayav.htm May we see the rebuilding of the Temple in our days and that Tisha B'Av becomes a day of celebration. Jacob
