Today, joyously, is the 15th day of Av, Tu B’Av. We are all too familiar with the five major tragedies that occurred on Tisha B’Av through the fall of Beitar and the plowing over of Zion (succeeded by other later tragedies as well). We may be equally as familiar with the five corresponding great events of Tu B’Av: Very briefly, 1. It was finally determined that the final group of men aged 20-60 (previously part of the decree to pass away in the Midbar) were allowed the privilege of entering Eretz Yisrael.

Question #1: Tenancy
“We rented a new apartment but did not put up mezuzos immediately, figuring that we had thirty days to do so. Someone told me that Rav Moshe held that we should put up mezuzos immediately. Is that true?”
Question #2: Temporary Dwelling
“When we went to visit our children in Ramat Beit Shemesh for two weeks, they had borrowed for us a brand-new apartment that the owners themselves had not yet used. I was surprised to see mezuzos on the doors already. My son-in-law explained that he put up mezuzos in the entire apartment, so that we could use it. Was he required to do so? I thought that one is not required to have mezuzos unless one lives in a place for at least a month.”

(Detroit Jewish News)(Ed: This story from the city Jewish paper highlights the unity that Partners In Torah has brought to the entire Jewish community and has become a “mainstream” Jewish learning event. )
As the clock ticks toward 8 on Tuesday nights in the Partners Study Hall of Yeshiva Beth Yehudah on the Newman Family Campus, Janet Snider, a Yeshiva graduate and Bingham Farms pediatrician, greets her study partner, Nancy Triest of a Huntington Woods, who works in sales and loves nurturing her Jewish identity.
A good friend suggested Janet, a Torah teacher, when Nancy was seeking a new study mentor. Talk about beshert, something “meant to be.” Says Nancy: “Janet is so wonderful.”

A privately-funded Holocaust memorial is to be built on the grounds of the Ohio Statehouse despite concerns from the head of an oversight board that the project is “inappropriate” for public property and could ensnare Ohio in a separation-of-church-and-state dispute.
The $1.8 million memorial was approved Thursday by the state Capitol Square Review and Advisory Board, which oversees and maintains the Ohio Statehouse.
The Justice For Aliza campaign invites all women to attend a free self-defense class in honor of Aliza Sherman, the Beachwood woman who in March was stabbed to death in downtown Cleveland.
The class, which is intended to promote safety for all women by providing them with the tools to protect themselves will be held at noon on Sunday, July 28, in the Fairmount-Richmond Room at the Beachwood Community Center, 25325 Fairmount Blvd.
Participants are asked to wear their “Justice For Aliza” T-shirts. Those without a T-shirt are asked to arrive at 11:50 a.m. to obtain one.
