         Mail.Jewish is a mailing list which deals principally with
         questions related to Halacha (Jewish law), interpretations of
         Torah and other issues of concern/interest within a TRADITIONAL
         Judaic framework.
         The mailing list is compiled by Avi Feldblum at Bell Labs. The
         focus of the list is to provide a forum to discuss general
         jewish topics within a framework that accepts the validity of
         halacha. As there is a fair amount of discussion on halachic
         issues, the list is sometimes refered to as the halachic
         mailing list.

         From: Chaim Dworkin <chaim@ENIAC.SEAS.UPENN.EDU>


         AJFCANet, a new computer network that links JFCS with a
         national umbrella agency-- the Association of Jewish Family and
         Children's Agencies.
         AJFCANet is the brainchild of Dr. Marvin Berman, president of
         Network Development Consulting.
         Berman designed AJFCANet in cooperation with Burt Goldberg,
         national executive director of AJFCA.  "If someone wants a
         particular piece of information, they will be able to obtain it
         instantly, without searching through material they don't need,"
         Goldberg said.  "Our goal was to create a system whereby our
         agencies will have access to the latest data on trends in the
         Jewish family service field, conferences, grants, and statistics."
         The local facility must purchase the telecommunications
         program that permits access to the Connect network and pay a
         monthly service charge of $14.  The software program runs about
         $150.
         Locally, Goldman said, AJFCANet also complements the Elder
         Support Service, the Jewish community's natioanl netowrk that
         facilitates the provision of services to the elderly.
         Nationally, the New York-based Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society
         will begin using the system shortly.

       * GEnie??I

         From: Alan Stein <STEIN@UCONNVM.BITNET>

         There are several dozen Jews active in areas of Jewish interest
         on GEnie.

         GEnie is divided into roundtables, each of which has bulletin
         boards and libraries.  The bulletin boards are included in the
         monthly charge ($4.95), while the libraries are not.  There are
         three bulletin boards with active Jewish participation.

         The Military RT bulletin board has a topic on Israel and
         Palestine which is one of the most active topics on GEnie.  It
         also has a topic on the Holocaust, although that isn't as
         active.  There is a lot of Israel bashing, with a group of Jews
         stepping in to defend Israel and go on the offensive.  (This is
         common to most topics involving anything to do with Jews or
         Israel.)

         The PF*NPC (Public Forum*Non Profit Connection) RT has a
         category on the Middle East, with several of the topics of
         involving Israel.

         The Simtel archives is a US government sponsered public domain archive
         which holds several hundred megabytes of various public domain stuff.
         The archive contents is most easily retrieved from the mirror of the
         archives by anonymous ftp to wuarchive.wustl.edu. The MSDOS
         directories are found in /mirrors2/msdos. Further information about
         the archive and how to retrieve files from it is found in the
         directory /mirrors2/msdos/starter.

       * Bibliographies

         From: fingerhu@ircam.fr (Michel Fingerhut)
         Organization: IRCAM, Paris (France)

         Bibliographical lists I put together recently and have a common
         thread: the first two are of orthodox scholars whose work
         conciliates tradition, modern science and philosophy: Cassuto,
         with his luminous commentary of the Pentateuch (I *don't* mean
         here what's known as "the Cassuto" but was really written by
         Hartum), together with other writings and interpretations of
         older Canaanite literature, and Y. Leibowitz, on science
         (genetics), society, politics, judaism (Maimonides) and almost
         everything else.

         The third one, N. Leibowitz (sister of Y. Leibowitz) is a
         wonderful *teacher* and has been doing commentaries of the
         Pentateuch for over 50 years.

         Contact:   Alan Broder -  ajb@digex.com  (uunet!digex.com!ajb)

         Alternately, send your comments care of yehuda@gwuvm.bitnet

         HaMaayan is published weekly for the edification and enjoyment of the
         reader who is lacking the time or ability to study the weekly Parasha
         on his own. HaMaayan's goal is to acquaint the reader with the
         broadest spectrum of traditional Torah commentary, from the
         "rationalism" of Rambam (Maimonides) and Abarbanel to the "mysticism"
         of Alshich and the Chassidic Masters.

         While the editors hope these brief "snippets" will engender further
         discussion of Torah topics ("L'Hagdil Torah U'L'Ha'adirah"), they
         unfortunately lack the time to respond to lengthy questions.

         Moderator: Harold A. Miller  hal@shark.mel.dit.csiro.au

         Due to the generosity of Rabbi Lazer Danziger, I am now
         building an archive of the L'Chaim issues.  I don't have too
         many yet, although R' Danziger has assured me he will forward
         what back issues he can.  If anyone has others I'm missing,
         please email me.

         The archive is on shark.mel.dit.csiro.au, IP address
         144.110.16.11, in pub/lchaim.  The files are compressed.
         Login is "anonymous", password is your email address
         (user@host.domain, presumably).  I *may* install an
