Money Tree- Israel Summer 2009

Followers of this website may not be aware, that there ia an entire network of websites and blogs that have been created by the same author/website developer. Therefore to alert our readers to this fact we decided to post this message to let everyone know the following: This particular website is the original WordPress website published by this author. However the same author can also be considered a publisher of website in part due to the sheer number of websites and/or blogs published by Stephen C. Sanders who has also started using his full Hebrew name Aharon Moshe Sanders both in his Facebook page as well as many of his blogs. The first website published by this author was published by this author in 2001. The website was a critical review about a play called “The Seagull live performance Central Park” where he wrote an in depth analysis of the play, stage direction, as well a review of the actors line delivery. In short this website developer has experience using several different interfaces which he has been utilizing to produce web content on a fairly consistent basis over the last decade.

Don’t Push The River That Flows-Fritz S. Perls

Don’t Push The River That Flows-Fritz S. Perls

Shanah Tovah, Stephen C. Sanders, Wednesday September 28, 2011 5;25pm. The problem with this time of the year is that I always want to see of feel a tangible change. While this website has certainly undergone many positive changes, its hard for me to report on what has changed within me. However just now as I finally realized that all kind of things happened, sometimes going my way, and sometimes not, I have still been steady at the helm bracing myself for the challenges ahead. Yes its a new year, yet I realized how backwards I have sometimes thought of these things. This year my heart simply was not into all the preparations, the new year is just sort of rolling in. I have actually accomplished quite a lot, particularly in having had my various web sites climb up the Alexa ladder, where they can now reasonably compete with other similar niche specific websites. The holidays we are entering into are supposed to be a time for reflection, and sure its normal to experience a feeling of regret for things we may not have accomplished in our own timeline. However we never truly clearly see what G-d has in mind

I’ll Be With You When The Stars Start Falling.

In The Pinwheel Galaxy A Once "Dead" Star Exploded.

Stephen C. Sanders, Wednesday September, 28, 2011, 3am. When the stars start falling- Erev Rosh HaShanah Certainly these are classic song lyrics. It had been quite some time since I have loosened up on my own self imposed restrictions for these websites that I produce. One might well imagine that it could be difficult to be gifted with a keen intellect that always attempts to put a rational explanation onto everything. Some things just never seem to work out perfectly. Now when you just happen to have been born with an intense interest in science, and even biology at a very young age, well then its certainly going to be a very rough ride to sit around and listen to all sorts of conjecture centered in dogmatic discussion. Now quite honestly the only way I could ever truly endure listening to such discussion was to simply turn off my brain for a little while. Now as dramatic as that may sound, in fact it is really not that difficult. The problem of course only ever comes up when you try to penetrate to the deepest meaning within a particular thing. So rather than starting with something really complex, lets just

Intelligent Design-Holy Torah.

Woodstock Just In Love

This probably will be one of the shortest posts I will be writing on this website. The truth is when I there is a certain amount of pressure to conform to deadlines, start dates, and appointments, things get done. On one of my BlogSpot blogs I recently posted a comment that at one time I had actually taught a full program at a public high and then afterwards taught no less than four additional preps (4 different classes in different subjects) at a Yeshiva which required a significant commute. Ebbs and flows are natural cycles that are build into every aspect of the world in which we live. While I have been significantly involved in developing dozens of new websites (mostly for my own purposes) I also am faced with the results of imperfect planning. Sometimes we can become significantly sidetracked even by our own work. The amazing thing is how the offers for work fly in, when I am required to do my most effective thinking and planning on my own part. Getting caught up in the thinking and planning stages of any given project, is an extremely significant important thing to understand with all of its subtle implications.

The Calm Before The Storm

With this post I am finally taking this website into a new direction. Now that I have revealed a little bit about how I name this website, I thought a little more information about the writer, the dreamer, the poet who’s thoughts get written here. They say the darkest the hour, is always before the dawn. Its a saying who’s original author may have simply been pushed aside by pop culture. Certainly in my circles everyone associates that idea with the song by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.   Additionally there is no doubt that people’s minds over here on the east coast must certainly be on, the recent and upcoming events. What could i possibly be speaking of on this website of mine (one amongst perhaps a dozen or so) yet this is the one site where my where my strongest readership is in the New York City area. Statistics Summary for thewriterscafe.org Thewriterscafe.org has a three-month global Alexa traffic rank of 980,759. We estimate that 87% of its visitors are in the US, where it has attained a traffic rank of 124,284. Visitors to the site view an average of 11.0 unique pages per day. The site is relatively

A Story of A Name

The story behind the name, and the website, how it all began-By Stephen C. Sanders- August 16, 2011 3:25pm EST This web site has come a long way, only with a a very constant and varied level of effort over time.   Perhaps a brief digression regarding the initial thought behind this website might be in order. My previous web production was a very analytic yet deeply philosophical analysis regarding a play that I had seen produced in the Shakespeare in the Park series in Central Park, New York City. The play. The Seagull, was written by Anton Chekhov, and Natalie Portman, and Meryl Streep (amongst others) appeared in this production. I mentioned the play above in context to tell how the plan for this website “fell into place”. -S. Sanders-   If one were forced to either critique for better or worse my particular writing style, I believe it could summed up as, a series of digressions from digressions.

Learn Their Mistakes, Or Be Doomed To Repeat Them!

Gary Kasparov: Making Mistakes in Chess- Aharon Moshe Sanders, Making Mistakes in Life-AhMbDvd August 9, 6:17pm Gary Kasparov: Making Mistakes in Chess   A master chess player Gary Kasparov fully explains the value of mistakes in something as simple as “a game”. However a game, has so many valuable examples that can be applied to real life, that I felt it very fitting to have the man himself explain exactly what mistakes are all about, and how they contain essential elements to allowing experienced palyers to grow.   Today we live in a world where the greatest thinkers, politicians, leaders and experts in their fields are every bit as prone to make mistakes as ever/ The difference is the unfortunate tendency on either the part of the media or even on the individual level to simply ignore, deny, or create convoluted explanations justifying these errors. Far better is to assume as our chess master friend Gary Kasparov is telling us here, that mistakes will occur, and we need to go back and analyze what went went wrong, so as to to become stronger when faced with similar issues in the future.   Accepting the inevitability and responsibility for strategic errors in

Publisher’s Note: If one is trying to upload original Videos using YouTube, the amount of time it takes is incredibly slow. Unfortunately this problem has slowed down this series almost to standstill. There has got to be a better way! There are perhaps half a dozen of these videos left and there simply has to be a better way to upload these large files!
