A festive siyum will be held at the new Lakewood Cheder Hall in Lakewood on Motzoei Shabbos, March 7, to mark the completion of Maseches Brachos, the first masechta in the Daf Yomi cycle.
The gathering comes on the heels of the beautiful communal Seudas Siyum Hashas held at Fountain Ballroom last month, when thousands of Lakewooders gathered in a massive show of kavod haTorah.

Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz and Fox News contributor Sarah Sanders weigh in on the New Hampshire primary.
WATCH:

Michael Bennet, the Colorado senator and former public school superintendent, is ending his campaign for the presidency, he said.
Bennet’s exit comes on the night of the New Hampshire primary, after he said he needed to finish in the top three or four to continue.
“I’ve got to do well here,” Bennet said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Monday. “I bet it all on New Hampshire.”
Bennet’s final push through New Hampshire included 50 town halls in the last 10 weeks leading up to the primary, a tour in which he touted himself, a moderate Democrat, as someone who could defeat President Donald Trump.

Before Sen. Amy Klobuchar left the debate stage in Manchester on Friday night, her staff could feel a new energy around her candidacy. Donations poured in – $1 million before midnight that night and then another $2 million over the weekend.
Larger-than-usual crowds showed up to her campaign events – a record for her of 700 people at a Manchester university on Sunday afternoon, followed by a new record a few hours later of 1,100 people in a Nashua middle school gym. Meanwhile, she surged in two polls in the state.

Joe Biden flew here unexpectedly Tuesday night before New Hampshire votes were even counted, seeking to save his faltering campaign in a state he must win – and one where allies, voters, party officials and others say he remains a front-runner, albeit a wounded one.
After a dismal showing in last week’s Iowa caucuses and then again Tuesday, the former vice president is now counting on what has so far been durable support from black voters who make up a large share of the Democratic electorate in South Carolina.

As fears of the growing coronavirus endemic increase worldwide, Israel’s Sheba Medical Center, Tel Hashomer, has developed a groundbreaking way to treat potential patients without risking the health of hospital staff and other patients.
Using a Vici telemedicine system, designed by virtual health-care company Intouch Health, the robot-like apparatus can be controlled by doctors and nurses to enter the infected patient’s room and even monitor the patient’s vital signs, such as heart rate.
“This is one way to use telemedicine to protect our staff,” said Dr. Galia Barkai, head of Telemedicine Services at Sheba Medical Center. “By minimizing direct contact between the patients and medical personnel, we reduce the percentage risk of health-care staff contracting the virus.”

By Rabbi Berach Steinfeld
                During Mattan Torah Bnei Yisroel died after hearing Hashem speak. They then came back to life. Were the men required to re-marry their wives when they came back from death? In Meseches Megillah we find that Rava killed Reb Zeira while drunk. When Reb Zeira became alive again via a miracle, was he required to re-marry his wife? The same question would apply to the son of Shunamis that Elisha was mechayhe meisim; if he had been married, would he be required to re-marry?

CONCORD, N.H. – Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., claimed unchallenged control of the Democratic Party’s left wing with a victory in the New Hampshire presidential primary Tuesday as two moderates, Pete Buttigieg and a newly surging Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., vied for the opposition mantle in a campaign that has been remade over the past eight days.
Sanders and Buttigieg, a former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, marked their second straight strong showings – they essentially tied in last week’s Iowa caucuses, with Sanders carrying the popular vote and Buttigieg winning a slight edge in delegates.
