...Yehudah Brandwein. "The Light simply turned on." The enlightenment was passed on by marriage as well: Brandwein's niece became Berg's first wife. Since Berg met Brandwein in 1962, the Brooklyn-born leader of the Kabbalah Learning Center has pursued a single mission: the dissemination of Kabbalah to mankind and, flouting Kabbalistic orthodoxy, to womankind too. He concedes, however, that such lofty aspirations require financial grounding: "I don't know if you can reach 5 billion people with $5 in your pocket."

Americans at War (University Press of Mississippi; 200 pages; $28) is a new collection of Ambrose's essays that demonstrates deep knowledge and common sense about mankind's most senseless activity.

For instance, I read Tang dynasty poems, Song dynasty lyrics and Yuan dynasty verses, and some of Dante, Shakespeare, Balzac, Tolstoy and Mark Twain. All of these give me great enjoyment. I also like to listen to Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Strauss, Tchaikovsky...
...official Promise Keeper News. Its July issue describes the current era as a time of "crisis" for the nation: "The legal undermining of the sanctity of human life, from the preborn to the old and infirm, represents a rejection of America's two-century-old tenet that mankind is made in God's image and is a repudiation of morality as a factor in court decisions...
