Some Comforting Words After The Sad News of Murder of 3 Abducted Boys
(Hakhel)
For those who did not hear of HaRav Chaim Kanievsky, Shlita’s reaction to the tragedy, these were his words after an initial period of silence: “Shezachu HaBachurim, Hashem Yinkom Damam, L’Zechus Gedolah Me’od Vechizuk HaGadol VeHahishorirus VeHakabalos HaTovos Shekiblu Ahm Yisrael B’Zechusam. Zehu Zechus Gedolah Me’od.” HaRav Kanievsky repeated these thoughts several times. (Translation: The boys will merit, may Hashem avenge their blood, on behalf of the great merit and encouragement and tremendous inspiration, acceptances of new good deeds, that the nation of Israel accepted upon themselves – that this should be for the boys a great merit.” )
“Yeisheiv Badad V’Yidom—let one sit in solitude and be submissive” (Eicha 3:28): We should consider–and act upon–something we can now do personally as a zechus for them, whether it be the study of Mishnayos, the giving of Tzedaka, and/or a personal act of Teshuvah.

New Data Highlights EdChoice Academic Success
(Agudath Israel)The Ohio Department of Education just released important data related to the EdChoice Scholarship Program. In the past, critics inaccurately compared scholarship student performance to the performance data for the entire public school district, which included the many high-performing public schools. However, the EdChoice Scholarship program is only available to students who attended or would be assigned to a “low-performing” public school. The only accurate way to analyze the data is to compare scholarship students’ performance to those of students in those “low-performing” schools. As predicted, the new data showed that scholarship students generally out-performed students in their comparison group, in some cases by significant margins.

Teen’s abduction hits home for Fuchs Mizrachi teacher
(Cleveland Jewish News)
Rabbi Dov Shachor, an Israeli teacher at Fuchs Mizrachi School in Beachwood, has a strong connection to one of the three Israeli teenagers who were abducted by Palestinian terrorists June 12 in the West Bank.
In a telephone interview June 16, Shachor said he was the assistant principal and teacher of Naftali Frenkel, 16, for seven years at Dvir, a school for students in grades one through eight in Nof Ayalon, a small village in central Israel.

Review Your Brachos on Natural Phenomena
(Hakhel)
As we are now into the “Natural Events” season, we provide the following pertinent Halachos relating to the Brachos on these events–which serve to remind us that they are far from being “natural”.
The basis for the Halachos below is Shulchan Aruch, Orach Chaim, Chapter 227 and the Mishna Berurah there, the Sefer Shoneh Halachos and the Sefer Piskei Teshuvos on this Chapter in Shulchan Aruch. We specifically note that one should, of course, consult with his Rav for the final Halacha. We present the following for an understanding of the issues:
1. When experiencing an earthquake, one recites the brocha of “Oseh Ma’aseh Bereishis–Who makes the work of Creation”. It is also permissible to make the brocha of “Shekocho U’Gevuraso Malei Olam–His strength and His power fill the universe”. Piskei Teshuvos writes that the degree of the tremor is not necessarily relevant, as long as it is clearly felt.
