Subject: Anybody looking for a Ba'al Tfillah for Yamim Nora'im
I am looking for a position as Ba'al Tfillah for Rosh Hashanah and Yom
Kippur in an orthodox synagogue. Does anybody reading this message know
of any positions on offer?
I am 33. My wife and I live in London. We are happy to travel
overseas. I acted as a Ba'al Tfillah for the Yamim Nora'im each year
from 1980 to 1993 at a variety of different UK Ashkenazi synagogues
(including one with a choir). Have not done so the past two years as no
positions were available in the UK.
I can daven, leyn and blow shofar (I have my own shofar). Demonstration
cassette available on request.
I am obviously looking for some sort of remuneration, though what this
would involve would depend on where I might be appointed. A position
outside England would need to include payment for return air fares for
myself and my wife.
Please contact me as follows if this is of interest:

Subject: Dilugim software
I am passing on the following information which I received from Yoav
Rosenberg. I wish to emphasize that I have no connection whatsoever with
the "dilugim" program (in fact, I don't even have an opinion about it).
In order to access the Dilugim software, make anonymous FTP connection to
the site:
then type:
cd /users/yoavr/bib

Subject: Divrei Torah database program wanted
Looking for recommendations for a PC-based (that's Intel-PC,
not Berkeley, CA-PC) text-oriented database for divrei Torah.
Fields should be able to accomodate large text fields.
Hebrew and English capability preferred. Searching within
text fields by keyword is required.
Most database programs (ACCESS, Paradox, etc.) don't seem
well-suited for long text fields.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Subject: Internet connections at Hadar and BJJ
I am interested in soliciting information and help in setting up Internet
connections at Hadar and BJJ for my daughters who will be attending IY"H next
year. If there are other parents who are interested in joining this effort
please respond. I realize that this may be an uphill battle to get the schools
to agree and I will probably need all the suport I can get. The alternative of
astranaumical international phone bills is probably much worse.
Thank You,
Ahron Einhorn

Subject: Kashrut of "Peaceworks"
There are a number of products out there with the brand name "Moshe
Pupik and Ali Mushmuken" made by a company called "Peaceworks".
The products seem to have an Israeli hekhsher, but I am not familiar
with it.
Does anyone have information about the kashrut of these products? Is
their Kosher for Passover line also kosher?

Subject: New Shabbat Blechs (developed by NASA ?)
Help !!!
My wife has repeatedly been nagging, er, I mean, asking me to find out
more about this new, 21st century, state of the art blech that's now on
the market. It supposedly has a top plate (for the food) and bottom
plate (goes on the burner) with water sandwiched between them.
I would appreciate information on where they can be purchased (by mail
order), what sizes they come in, what their approximate cost is and if
anyone has had experience with them, was it positive or negative. We
have a standard electric stove.
You can email me privately at: s...@wsdot.wa.gov
Thank you for your help and for participating in this Shalom Bayit mitzvah.
