[ha-Safran]: KUDOS FOR AN AUTHOR/SPEAKER
Some of you have asked on Hasafran for recommendations of authors who are good speakers. I am suggesting Carla Danziger who spoke recently at a Jewish Book Month session in Sarasota, FL. She is the author of Hidden Falls, a fascinating mystery novel with Jewish content. All there admired and appreciated her speaking ability. She sold all her many books on display. The premise of Hidden Falls is as follows. After the painful breakup of her 20-year marriage, an American woman tours Norway's fjords with her cousin, a popular Norwegian journalist. The trip turns into a nightmare when the journalist is found deadl at the bottom of Hidden Falls. In the tradition of Agatha Christie, the protagonist begins a personal search for the truth. Her cousin's private ghosts from the Nazi occupation of Norway and her post-war years in England lead the American tourist down a rocky trail of danger, romance, and soul-searching questions about justice. The author is located in the Washington, DC area but is willing to travel not just for Book Month.

[ha-Safran]: For The Sake Of Jerusalem
Announcing the publication of For The Sake Of Jerusalem By Aharon Bier (z'l) and Bracha Slae, Editor Commemorating 40 Years of Reunification 1967-2007 You will want to have For The Sake Of Jerusalem as part of your library because it is the most up-to-date book in English that documents Jewish life in Jerusalem's Old City for the past 100 plus years. For The Sake Of Jerusalem is the historical record about the Yeshivot, Synagogues, and Jewish Leaders of this period. Historic photographs throughout the book, many taken by Aharon Bier, help to document how Jewish life developed in the Holy City during the last century. Many of these pictures have never been published prior to appearing in For The Sake Of Jerusalem! For The Sake Of Jerusalem will provide you with a very clear picture of how the Jewish community in the Old City lived - and survived - on a daily basis while under the governance of the Ottomans and the British, then to war with the Jordanians in 1948 - and finally to Israeli control in 1967. Includes Index and Glossary Rabbi Berel Wein wrote: It is history, cartography, photography, and inspiration all rolled into one attractive, readable and knowledgeable book. About The Author and The Editor Aharon Bier - guide, author, and photographer - was personally involved in the rebuilding of the Old City of Jerusalem from 1967 until his untimely death in 1987. He was one of the first to photograph and write about Jewish sites throughout the Holy City. In the 20 years that followed reunification, Aharon Bier actively worked to make the Old City a vibrant and active community. Unfortunately, he did not live to see many of his projects completed. Bracha Slae has edited, and added to the research of Aharon Bier, to provide an up-to-date picture of Jewish life in the Old City. A resident of the Old City for almost three decades, Bracha Slaes intimate knowledge of the people and places within the walls, and her vast experience as a guide, gives her the background to prepare this book. Hard Cover Deluxe Edition, with Jacket, 211 pages plus 16 pages of two special full color photographic sections depicting today's Old City.

[ha-Safran]: Iran�s Ballistic Missiles - a free download
Shalom Safranim: A free download on an important subject Global Reach of Irans Ballistic Missiles by Uzi Rubin http://www.tau.ac.il/jcss/publications.html#memoranda 48 pgs Nov 2006 The Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), incorporating the Jaffee Center for Strategic Studies, was founded in 2006. While the international community is focused on Irans potential nuclearization, it ought likewise to take stock of the developments in Iran's missile technology. Irans missiles are an indispensable complement to its nuclear ambitions and merit as much scrutiny as its nuclear program. This study describes and interprets the Iranian missile program within the context of Irans threat perception, armament policies, and overall ambitions. Charting the origins of Iran's missile program and its development, the study presents a clear picture of where Iran's missile capability stands today and where it is likely headed. Irans space program is a symbiotic adjunct to the missile program, and is reviewed here as well. Among the main conclusions of this study: Irans missile and space programs are progressing with singular urgency: no other country in the world, including established industrialized powers, comes close to Iran in the number and variety of ballistic missiles in development or already deployed. The Iranians are covering almost all technological bases: ordinary liquid propulsion, storable liquid propulsion, and solid propulsion. Along with ballistic missiles and space launch vehicles, Iran seems poised to add a cruise missile component to its strategic forces. Iran's development of a space launch vehicle may well be a harbinger of an ICBM. The range of Iran's missiles has grown steadily decade by decade, from a purely local range to an extended range that is likely to dominate the entire European continent by the end of the decade.

[ha-Safran]: Online Manuscript of the Tosefta
The Jewish National and University Library, David and Fela Shapell Family Digitization Project and the Hebrew University Department of Talmud are pleased to announce the expansion of the Online Treasury of Talmudic Manuscripts to include a first manuscript of the Tosefta: the so-called 'Erfurt' manuscript. This manuscript, which survived the Pogrom of the Jewish community of Erfurt in 1349, is held by the Staatsbibliothek, Berlin and reproduced with their permission. It is one of the two most important major existing manuscripts of the Tosefta and contains four sedarim: Zera'im, Moed, Nashim and Nezikin. The Tosefta manuscript is indexed by tractate, chapter and halacha. The Online Treasury of Talmudic Manuscripts project continues also to grow with additional manuscripts of the Mishna and Talmud Bavli. We hope to also add manuscripts of the Talmud Yerushalmi and Midrashim in the coming year.
