Subject: Hechschur Recognition?
My husband purchased a box of Maizoro cereal which had a Hechschur
symbol which I do not recognize. The cereal is manufactured in Mexico.,
but was purchased in a discount department store in the Metropolitan
Washington DC area. The Hechschur is two lines. The top line is VK and
the bottom line appears to be a pair of alephs. Under the symbol are
the works "K-PAREVE." Does anyone know what Vad or Rabbinical
superversion this symbol represents. A sort of graphical representation
of the symbol is as follows (A's represent alephs):
VK
AA
K-PAREVE
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Subject: Internet access in Israel
My sister in Jerusalem has full net access for which she pays about
$20 a month. She really only needs e-mail, which can be had here for much
less. Does anyone know of an e-mail only access in Jerusalem with a price
structure to match?

Subject: Is this a Hechshser?
I recently happened to see some AMerican jelly beans hanging by the counter
of a supermarket here. I noticed that they had a little sign on them consisting
of a KO in a square box, i.e.
+-----+
| KO |
+-----+
Out of interest, is this a Hechsher of some sort, and if so is it a reliable
One?
Thanks in advance,
Yossi Halberstadt

Subject: Thanks from Woman Having Trouble Conceiving
I recently posted a message about a 43 year old woman who just got
married and is having trouble conceiving, and was looking for 1)
alternative medicine to help her or 2) people who could give her a
brocho or doven for her.. I'd like to thank everyone who replied. You
gave her a tremendous chizzuk. Many of you suggested that I post her
name on mail-Jewish. Her name is Fruma Leah bas Basya Tabe (taf aleph
bais aleph). May all your tfillot be answered as you doven for her.

Subject: WTB: Haftarah Scrolls
A sofer in Baltimore is looking to purchase Haftarah klafs: These are
scrolls containing the portions of the prophets for the year, used by
those congregations and individuals who prefer to lehn (read) from a
scroll, as opposed to a printed book.
These scolls are often owned by older congregations.
You may contact R Binyomin Spiro at 410-764-3634, or via me:
