Bnai Mitzvah Tutors Needed
The UVJC is in need of Bnai Mitzvah tutors for the coming term. We have a large number of students in the 6th grade who will need bnai mitzvah mentoring in the coming months and for the coming year. It is a wonderful opportunity to make a significant impact on the lives of these young students that will last a lifetime. If you are interested, please contact Rabbi (rabbi@dartmouth.edu<mailto:rabbi@dartmouth.edu>).
Whether you like President Obama or not, I think you will find it hard not to like this video of him singing Sexy and I Know It by LMFAO. Someone found clips of him saying every word in the song in his presidential speeches and decided to make this mashup. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWgO9-AIROI&feature=related
