Looks like he did it again... I'm about half-way through this video and he has not yet spoken about Shavuot...

Shalom,

I am unable to attend our community Shavuot event this evening... I am pretty bummed about it because I was unable to take the time off from work. But I will be studying late tonight at home...

I'm sorry to hear about it, Muman :( I hope next year you make it to the community event.

There were several lectures going on where I was. None of the topics interested me. It was all about either about gerut, dairy and sadly there was even a lecture in a shul about Donald Sterling's words! I would have been happy to stay in and study.
There was one lecture that was a little far away in a shul where my bf and I ended up going and even though I fell asleep on and off for the first few minutes, I actually woke up and started to listen to the lecture going on. And I was blown away!! The speaker was a Rabbi Shimon Kessin and he spoke for the entire night. I recommend everyone to check him out! His lecture was powerful.

Here is a short video I found of him online. Talking about the insanity of Iran getting away with what they do and their threats to destroy Israel, Purim repeating itself, and about the insanity of Obama having been elected:

His lectures at the shul was about Israel (if Israel would come to Torah, the arabs would back away), Moshiach, Sinat Chinam and I don't recall the first one (when I was dozing off).

IsraeliHeart,

Sounds like you had a good Shavuot over all... That is great...

If you remove the 's' from 'https' in the video URL you posted the JTF forum will 'in-line' the video... I have posted the edited link below:
