    Moving! Corona-inflected day-long Yom Kippur prayers in one of Tel Aviv's best known spaces, Dizengoff Square, ends with singing the national anthem . The final Yom Kippur song in the prayer books of most of the world's Jewish congregations is Next Year in Jerusalem.

    I’m going to be straight with my like…16 followers. As a military urologist if scrotal swelling was a vaccine side effect I would be the first to know. No one is more attentive to their testicles than men in the military.

    ...the people foraging in the bush saw: A man and a woman in trouble. So that, for me, is what kindness is: Seeing trouble when it is apparent and helping. I can only aspire to meet its standard.

    ...for kindness. (Also at Christmas, mind you, other times as well.) And what does kindness look like? Well, this is how I felt running through the Congolese bush, carrying a woman on my back because her shoes were stolen: Stupid and very white and privileged. But this is what...

    ...where to go, but then I saw local folks, at Zaire's direst time, gathering edibles in the bush, and they saw me and they gestured toward what turned out to be the safety of the street, and ran alongside us to make sure we knew. Every year around this time, I see an appeal...

    ...and I followed her because whatever happened to her, it would be worse on her own. Sure enough two soldiers chased us into the bush. One had a crudely fashioned cat-o-nine tail and was trying to whip me with it as we ran. The woman reporter fell, and I stopped and watched...

    We all fled. Most reporters ran up the road to flee the soldiers who were wholly in couldn't GAF mode, their regime was collapsing, Kabila was on the doorstep, etc. I saw one American reporter, a young woman, fleeing instead into the bush. Bad move, I thought...
