The mamma turkey that lives with her babies at city hall started off with about eight babies a month or so ago, and now she is down to two. UGH! I don’t even want to know. I love and hate the fact that I am so invested in the lives of the wild animals that live around city hall. From the turkey to the squirrels, and even the turkey vultures. I have gotten used to a bit of a routine and when you see the same critters walking around, you become a bit invested in their lives. Unfortunately they are still wild creatures and mother nature is cruel. I do not have time to be feeling sad for a bunch of baby chicks running around in the streets. I am still traumatized by the death of a turkey that I used to see on my way to work about twenty years ago. It was a funny pair of turkey that would hang out at a major intersection. One day I drove by and saw one of them had been hit by a car and lay dead, while the other stood by her friend and refused to leave her side, despite the cars honking and eventually having to drive around the pair. UGH!! I might need to start closing my eyes when I drive.

by Dan Shtauber

FREE for a limited time
It all began in 1944 when the Germans occupied Hungary.
This is when Risa Shtauber’s life turned from an ordinary life to one of surviving unspeakable horrors.
Risa was shipped together with many other Jews to the Oradea Ghetto and from there to the Plaszow Labor Camp and later to the Ober-Altstadt Labor camp. And even this was not enough… Risa was sent to the Auschwitz Death Camp to be slaughtered!
But, she survived!
Having survived, she met her husband – Mordechai Tzvi and they created a family which included 4 sons, 22 grandkids and 34 great-grandkids!
Had anyone told Risa Shtauber during 1944-1945 that she would celebrate her 90th birthday in Israel surrounded by her sons, grandkids and great-grandkids, she would tell them to stop fantasizing.
But in 2016, this came to be!
And today, at the age of 94 and living her life in Israel, she still feels victorious when remembering those horrible years!
