With state politicians taking strong stands on both sides‚ the polarizing question of whether to open our doors to Syrian refugees has created yet another wonderful opportunity for color-coded US maps (mellow yellow = welcoming refugees‚ orange = NOT welcoming refugees‚ noncommittal gray = not committing). But a similar map of American Jewry would look relatively monochromatic – for us‚ the notion of turning our backs

Almost everything from food‚ clothing and shelter to the luxuries are to be restored from scratch.

Technology has developed to the point where you can actually move a mouse by simply moving your head. A laser dot is placed on your forehead and
