The Rebbe's Advice #260 - SPONSOR PRINTING OF REBBE’S SEFER In memory of Rabbi Gavriel & Rebbetzin Rivkah Holtzberg HYD - Shluchim to Mumbai, India
I was notified by Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Hecht that you requested we arrange for you the saying of kaddish and mishnayos, the study of Mishna after one hundred twenty years of your life. Someone in Eretz Yisrael can do it for you (the price is somewhere around $300-$400).
My father-in-law says it is better to be involved with living matters while alive, I suggest you take upon yourself the financial responsibility to pay for the printing of one of the sefer hasichos of my father-in-law. We will print, right in the beginning of the sefer, that you and your wife paid for its printing. Both of you will have a partnership in the mitzvah of all those who will learn in this sefer. Ibid. p. 125

Sioux Falls, S.D. – Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin insisted today that he never intentionally violated federal fraud or immigration laws as the head of an eastern Iowa kosher meat plant, but acknowledged that he “made mistakes.”
The former top executive at Agriprocessors Inc. attributed his plant’s questionable financial practices to his own oversights or actions by other employees. He said he was “trying hard to comply with the law” at the plant, but he grew visibly annoyed when grilled by a federal prosecutor.
“I made mistakes,” he said. “I’m a human being. I took the information people gave me and sort of went with it without really drilling down to see if it was for real or not.”
...Rubashkin told jurors he never read the agreement for a $35 million credit line to the plant, which he signed.continue...
