MICHAEL FREUND: Ezekiel is commanded by God to take two sticks. On one, he is to write "For Judah," and on the other "For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim." Then comes the crucial instruction: "Bring them together into one stick so that they become one in your hand" (37:17). Ezekiel's vision is not one of uniformity. The two sticks do not cease to be what they are. Judah remains Judah; Joseph remains Joseph. Unity does not erase difference – it sanctifies and elevates it by placing it within a larger shared destiny.

Ketriel Blad: In other words, in order for a total restoration to take place, the restored Ephraimites from among the nations will have to become Jewish, in the legal sense of the word, thus accepting the Jewish authorities and becoming obedient to Jewish halachah. In the prophecy of Ezekiel 37:19 the Hebrew text can be understood as HaShem giving Yehuda's stick the function of being over Ephraim's stick and this way both sticks will become one. This teaches us that the Ephraimite movement that comes from heaven cannot rise apart from the Jewish people without submission to the Jewish leaders' authority. This is not for all the gentiles.

Hi! My name is Ziba. This is my second year as an English teacher at ISTEK Belde. I’m Persian-Filipino, my dad is Iranian and my mom is Filipino. I grew up in the Philippines and lived in Dubai for two years. 
I have eight years of experience working in International schools. Prior to transitioning to teaching, I’ve worked as a school nurse at Brent International School Manila for four years. Part of my nursing responsibilities was to teach in the health curriculum of lower school and provide training to school staff. This helped me discover my passion for teaching. Before moving to Istanbul, I’ve worked at GEMS World Academy Dubai for two years.

As a lifelong learner, I take pride in conducting personal search for professional growth. My training includes a Bachelor’s degree in Nursing, a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate, a diploma in children's studies, and recently a professional teaching certificate. At present I'm finishing my CELTA course with Cambridge English. My next step is to start working towards earning a Master’s Degree in teaching. 
I’m a strong advocate of hands-on, inquiry-based learning. I believe that children learn best when their interests and ideas are taken into consideration. I am confident that my level of commitment and capacity to function as part of a team will allow me to make significant contributions to the students of ISTEK Belde.

It is a strong belief of mine that when it comes to the education of your child, we [both parents and teacher] are a team. As such, I urge you to take an interest in your child’s day to day learning, encourage personal reading and and share any questions or concerns you have with me. As well, if there is anything you need from me, including ideas of how you can better support your child’s learning, I would be only more than happy to talk with you. 
I am very excited to be a part of the ISTEK Belde community and working with your child this year - while we explore the wonderful world of learning.

Karma is a bitch, especially regarding torture

chiming in, here and there:

surprised that torture is only being addressed now. 
doreen ellen bell-dotan of tzfat had been very vocal about how jewish minors have been tortured by israel. she’s heaped trouble upon everybody, including herself, ever since.

good luck on your court thingy;

firstonethrough: It is a lesson for the world to value as it leaves the year 2015.
thejewishlibertarian: That’s funny. 
A friend of mine wrote this on Facebook. I’m sharing it here word for word. 
Here’s something I agree with them about: nobody should be tortured by their government. If they are in custody, they should be allowed to talk to an attorney. If there is not enough evidence to sustain a finding of probable cause, they should not have been arrested. 
Some will call me inconsistent myself because I benefit from the security of the occupation. So what? I benefit from every service the government monopolizes and forces me to use. If the government monopolized the food industry I wouldn’t stop eating. It’s just how this works. If your country routinely violates human rights norms, and that’s ok with you, you might be next. And that makes them dumb. And maybe a little bit evil, too. That isn’t Karma. 
Truth bomb.

Stephen Epstein: Some went down the Mekong River into Vietnam, the Philippines, Siam, Thailand and Malaysia, while some of the Israelites moved to Burma and west to India.
