Clevelanders that are registered runners are Adira & Talia Lautman of University Heights, and FMS Freshmen Sarah Lidsky & Chaviva Mandel (use links provided to support these runners in their campaign).
Four years ago, Team Yachad was formed with just 29 excited participants in the ING Miami Half-Marathon to provide funds and awareness for the vital work of Yachad: promoting Inclusion for those living with disabilities within the broad Jewish community. Eagerly anticipating the finish line of this year’s race — to be held on Sunday, January 27 — are the 180 members of Team Yachad 2013 (including 10 individuals with disabilities, five of whom are returning team members).
Yachad/the Natioinal Jewish Council for Disabilties (NJCD), an agency of the Orthodox Union, is dedicated to enhancing the opportunities of individuals with disabilities, promoting Inclusion and independence through various integrated activities and ensuring their participation in the full spectrum of Jewish life.

Greater Cleveland’s urban scene gets a boost from young adults moving in
(Plain Dealer)
New to Northeast Ohio in 2010, Rachael Ng rented an apartment across from the mall in Beachwood. But as she came to know her way around town, she quickly joined the migration path of her tribe.
“I have a lot of friends who live downtown,” explained Ng (pronounced “Ing”), a 27-year-old pharmacist for the Cleveland Clinic. “A lot of us hang out on Coventry, too. I wanted something in the center of all that.”
So she moved to University Circle, on the border of Cleveland and Cleveland Heights, and added her energy to a new and potentially potent population pattern.

Which Kriah CD Should You Buy?
Are you trying to choose a good kriah (Hebrew reading) CD for your kids, but you’re confused about which to buy? It can be hard to find detailed information about what each CD offers. Since our family recently bought a new kriah CD, we thought we’d share our experiences with the two that we own. Hopefully this review will help other families choose which one is best for their family.
Kriyah Coach is a new CD that was created as a way to raise money for tzedakah. It assumes that kids already know the alef-beis; there’s a quick alef-beis review you can click on, with video footage of a rebbe and his class pointing to the osios and reviewing them, but that’s all that’s offered for alef-beis. The CD’s focus is on learning the nekudah sounds and learning to blend. For each nekudah, there’s a 3-step approach: first, a computer-animated scene with characters introducing the nekudah; second, video footage of Rabbi Henoch Potash teaching that nekudah to his class; and third, a brief exercise for the child to practice with.
The pronunciation used is mainstream yeshivish.
Overall, Kriyah Coach is cute–the little boys in Rabbi Potash’s class are adorable, and the animated characters interest kids–but it doesn’t offer a lot of practice.

Segulah of Parshas HaMan for Tuesday
The Yerushalmi teaches that one who recites Parshas Hamon every day is assured that his food will not be lacking. Reb Mendel M’Riminov said that saying Parshas Hamon (Shenayim Mikroh V’Echod Targum) on the Tuesday of Parshas B’Shalach, is a Segulah for Parnasah, and indeed this has become a well accepted custom in many circles. Also have in mind as well all of Klal Yisroel, many of whom are suffering terribly with a lack of parnassah. Chazal teach that one who prays for someone else in need, for the same thing that they need, the one praying for their friend will be answered first!

South Euclid To Return To Issuing Parking Tickets January 23rd, 2013
New Parking Violations Bureau Decriminalizes Parking Infractions and provides Hearing Examiner to oversee appeals process.
In accordance with City Council’s approval of the establishment of a new Parking Violations Bureau and hiring of a Hearing Examiner, the City of South Euclid Police Department will begin the re-issuance of Parking Tickets on Wednesday, January 23, 2013 at midnight.
The Police Department suspended the issuance of parking tickets in May 2012 pending City Council’s determination of a new procedure for paying fines and challenging parking tickets. On September 10, 2012 South Euclid City Council approved legislation creating a Parking Violations Bureau, decriminalizing parking tickets and making infractions civil offenses.

Recall on Honda Odysseys and Pilots 2011-13
(AutoMedia, Honda)
Honda has issued a voluntary recall for 2009-2013 model-year Pilots and 2011-2013 model-year Odysseys, on account of a possible driver-side airbag defect.
More than 748,000 vehicles are subject to the possibility of an improperly installed airbag, that could be missing a few crucial rivets that secure the airbag’s plastic cover. As a result, airbags might deploy improperly and do more harm than good should an accident occur.

Letter from a Reader: CJN Helps Missionaries Advertise and Proselytize Jews from our Community
(Ed: The following is a letter written by Channah Appel to the Cleveland Jewish News in response to their acceptance of a paid ad for a “Messianic J_” movie appearing on p. 10 in their January 18th, 2013 issue. The identity of the publisher was not unknown and even the ad copy uses the terminology “Messianic Jew.” Visiting the website referenced in the ad makes the purpose of this event even clearer – to proselytize Jews. Please read this letter which has been submitted already and write your own to the CJN to protest their decision. Contact Managing Editor Bob Jacob: editorial@cjn.org or 216-342-5207. A scan of this ad appears at the end of this letter)
“I understand that newspapers in general are going through a rough time. Internet is the more popular mode for reading and keeping up with the news. This does not mean that any person with money should be allowed to advertise in the paper. What was the advertising staff thinking when they took the ad for the “Jews for Jesus” group (clothed with the words “Messianic Judaism”- I mean who would you want to guess they think is the Messiah anyway?)

Rav Noah’s Gifts
(Aish.com) (Ed: This is a very touching memoir of the love between a rebbe and his student, as well as the a reminder of how much being Jewish transforms what we are living for.)
Has it really been four years since the passing of my beloved rebbe? My guide, my mentor, my role model… my hero?
Hardly a day passes that I don’t crave Rav Noah’s wise advice; his kind and caring input into my life. The knee jerk reaction of reaching for the phone is long gone, but the desire and the yearning for contact remain. Where can I go with my difficult questions? Where is the voice of sanity in a generation so confused and distracted? When I’m feeling lost, who can shine a light and point me in the direction of my own wisdom again?
