For centuries, Jewish thinkers have asked two parallel questions. First, what is the reasoning behind an individual commandment and second, why bother heeding a command at all, something Dr. Brafman terms “reasons for” vs “reasons of” the commandments. In his newest book, Critique of Halakhic Reason: Divine Commandments and Social Normativity (Oxford UP, 2024), Dr. Brafman looks closely at the second of these questions. After considering answers from some of the most important Jewish thinkers of the 20th century, Joseph Soloveitchik, Yeshayahu Leibowitz, and Eliezer Berkovits, Dr. Brafman introduces his own system of thought. For him, the reasons for the commandments depend on a number of factors. We don't follow them blindly. And they don't always have to adhere to perfect and pure reason. Instead they are, to use a term he employs throughout is book, “constructed” based on any number of factors including our relationship with God and the norms that exist within our society. In conversation with some of the most important secular legal theorist and philosophers of the past 100 years, Dr Brafman charts a new course in Jewish theology, both defending and reimagining the place of our obligation to halakhah, Jewish law, for the 21st century. Professor Yonatan Brafman is Associate Professor of Modern Judaism in the Department of Religion, with a secondary appointment in the Department of Literary and Cultural Studies at Tufts University. Rabbi Marc Katz is the Senior Rabbi at Temple Ner Tamid in Bloomfield, NJ.

John is joined by renowned criminal defense lawyer attorney Ben Brafman, Founder of Brafman & Associates. They discuss Ben's 45-year career, trial strategies, and reflections on the criminal justice system. Ben, who has tried more than 75 cases, gained prominence in the 1980s and 90s when he defended major criminal trials, particularly organized crime and white-collar cases. He was in trial almost continuously for 11 years. He attributes his success to meticulous preparation and emphasizes that there are no shortcuts in trial practice. Ben describes the evolution of criminal trials over the last 40 years, noting that trials are shorter and less frequent today due to an increase in plea deals. John and Ben also discuss trial strategies. Many cases are won on cross. A successful cross requires deep knowledge of every piece of evidence in the case. He describes one case in which he essentially memorized months of taped conversations to dismantle a key witness's credibility.  Ben often uses cross-examinations of prosecution witnesses to establish parts of the defense and contradict the testimony of other witnesses. Most cases today are won or lost on emails or texts because they are so prevalent and an incriminating email or text by a defendant cannot be discredited on cross-examination. Ben also reflects on some of his most notable cases, including the acquittal of Sean "Diddy" Combs on gun and bribery charges in 2001 and the acquittal of nightclub mogul Peter Gation after an eight-week racketeering trial. Criminal defense often takes an emotional toll on the criminal defense lawyer, who is witness to the devastating impact criminal prosecutions have on families and personal reputations. Finally, John and Ben discuss criminal justice reform. Ben criticizes mandatory sentencing minimums laws and advocates for judicial discretion to prevent unjustly harsh sentences. Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

Sean "Diddy" Combs has engaged high-profile attorney Marc Agnifilo as a federal grand jury in Manhattan intensifies its months-long investigation into sex-trafficking allegations involving multiple accusers, as reported by Business Insider. Agnifilo, a seasoned criminal attorney known for representing notorious clients such as Martin Shkreli and NXIVM cult leader Keith Raniere, confirmed that the investigation was initially triggered by allegations from R&B singer Cassie Ventura, Combs' former girlfriend. Ventura's lawsuit, which alleged that Combs coerced her into a "drug-fueled lifestyle" and forced her to engage in sex acts with male prostitutes, settled just one day after it was filed last November. Agnifilo explained, "When Ventura's bombshell lawsuit settled so quickly, additional accusers came out of the woodwork," resulting in a sprawling investigation by prosecutors for the Southern District of New York. Federal authorities have executed searches of Combs' residences in Los Angeles and Miami, seizing phones and computers in March as part of the ongoing probe. Despite the intensifying investigation, Agnifilo remains optimistic about the outcome. "We are firmly convinced that he did not violate any federal laws, and we hope we can work with prosecutors in reaching that conclusion," he stated. The legal troubles for Combs have been mounting, with the Manhattan grand jury probe being the latest in a series of serious allegations. In May, CNN released a 2016 video showing Combs shoving, dragging, and kicking Ventura at a Los Angeles hotel. The video supported the claims of violence in Ventura's lawsuit, which Combs described as "inexcusable." "I'm disgusted," Combs said in an apology following the video's release. In addition to Ventura's claims, Combs is battling nine sex-assault lawsuits since November, the most recent filed by porn star Adria English in federal court in New York. English accuses Combs of sexual assault and harassment, alleging that he demanded she engage in sex with guests at his high-profile "white parties" from 2004 to 2009, charges which Combs denies. Agnifilo emphasized the Southern District's careful approach, noting, "I think that the Southern District is appropriately taking its time and considering many different factors." He also highlighted that Combs has not yet spoken with prosecutors and that his legal team is in regular communication with them. The high stakes of the investigation are evident as Combs' public appearances, including boarding his private jet and white-water rafting in Wyoming, have drawn criticism. Mitchell-Kidd, Ventura's attorney, commented, "It feels like Diddy is checking off some bucket list items because he knows the walls are closing in and the indictment is waiting in the wings." Combs' legal history in New York dates back more than 20 years when he faced a high-profile trial for gun and bribery charges after a nightclub shootout. Represented then by Benjamin Brafman, Combs was acquitted after a six-week trial. Brafman, who also represented Combs in the lead-up to Ventura's lawsuit, declined to comment on Combs' switch to Agnifilo, who was senior trial counsel at Brafman & Associates before the two parted ways in March.

Today I talked to Michelle Brafman about her novel Swimming with Ghosts (Keylight Books, 2023). Until her unemployed husband Charlie volunteers to step in as team coach, professional organizer Gillian Cloud has also controlled the neighborhood swim club and its team. She's a beautiful, much-admired part of the community, but Gillian is living behind a façade, refusing to accept the truth about her father's alcoholism and philandering, suppressing any unpleasantness in order to present her well-known positivity. Her best friend Kristy learns the truth about her own hidden addictions, which surface in a dangerous way and require the support of a former mentor. It's the summer of 2012, and after the ghosts of family addictions appear, and a real derecho destroys the clubhouse and destroys the power grid for several days, both Gillian and Kristy need to come to terms with their past trauma. Michelle Brafman is the author of Bertrand Court: Stories and the novel Washing the Dead. Her essays and short fiction have appeared in Oprah Daily, Slate, LitHub, The Forward, Tablet, and elsewhere. She teaches fiction writing in the Johns Hopkins University MA in Writing Program. She's worked as a coffee barista, radio advertising salesperson, and television producer, among other jobs. She got hooked on writing fiction while she was producing television because she craved another outlet to tell the stories she was gathering. Brafman grew up in Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin, earned an MA in Fiction Writing from Johns Hopkins University, and in addition to writing, her grand passion is helping others find and tune their narrative voices. A former swim mom and NCAA All-American freestyler, Michelle has never lived more than a mile away from a lake, ocean, or river. Learn more about your ad choices.

Rabbi Aaron Brafman was the much-beloved and revered menahel of Yeshiva of Far Rockaway. He was also a respected author and a dedicated askan. But more: He was a man who loved every Jew, who saw potential where others saw failure. In the words of a talmid, he was a man “who lived and breathed Klal Yisrael; whose days were filled with Torah and maasim tovim … and most of all, who epitomized the term ‘rebbi.'” In this interview, we spoke to Rabbi Brafman's son, Rabbi Avrohom Baruch Brafman, and Rabbi Brafman's close talmid, Rabbi Dov Keilson.

The Sylvia Brafman Mental Health Center Jaime Blaustein Interview with Sylvia Brafman Mental Health Center CEO Jaime Blaustein #MentalHealth SylviaBrafman #JaimeBlaustein Hi, and welcome to the show! On today's show I have the pleasure of welcoming Co-Founder of The Sylvia Brafman Mental Health Center Mr Jaime Blaustein to talk about mental health, the challenges in overcoming addiction, careers after addiction, and how to understand and manage your emotions. Jaime Blaustein is Co-Founder and CEO of SBMHC. Prior to this role, he was an investment banker at Credit Suisse in its Global Industrials coverage group in New York City. Here he was responsible for advising clients in the basic materials sector on strategic matters, including mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, leveraged buyouts, restructurings and various debt and equity financings. Prior to this role, he worked in institutional sales at Lord Abbett, a mutual fund manager overseeing ~$150 billion in assets under management. Jaime previously worked in wealth management at Morgan Stanley and later Wells Fargo, advising a wide array of clients on investment strategies. Jaime received his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan and his M.B.A. from Duke University. Jaime is an unapologetic NY Giants, Duke Blue Devils and Michigan Wolverine fan. His interests include fitness, steakhouses, international travel, meditation retreats, and quality time with friends. Jaime is a newly minted resident of Miami, and is actively involved in sponsoring dozens of men in recovery and is beyond excited to marry his business expertise with his passion for helping others make a comeback from the depths of mental illness and addiction. Jaime Blaustein and Ben Brafman are an unlikely duo that founded the Sylvia Brafman Mental Health Center. Brafman followed Blaustein's career success and contacted Blaustein to be the CEO of Sylvia Brafman. After much consideration, Blaustein realized that this was his dream career and a way to truly help others. Blaustein left his life in NYC, moved to Florida, and raised more than $1 million in funding from four outside investors on a $5 million valuation and assembled a team of about 15 professionals, including a medical director, counsellors and nurses. This duo shows that a rare combination of completely different skill sets and experiences can be combined successfully. It's also a great story of second careers and second chances.

Succeeding When You're Supposed To Fail The 6 Enduring Principles of High Achievement by Rom Braffman

Who are you? Yeah...who are you? A question that seems simple at first glance, but in reality is a much more intricate and interesting inquiry.We are complex beings, created through a cosmic and miraculous process, influenced by energetics from all that we consume starting the day we are born. We bounce around in this wild world of almost 8 billion people who all are unique in their own ways. So how do we understand who we are amongst it all?Insert Human Design. It's a logical system that brings together principles of The I Ching, astrology, Kabbalah, Hindu-Brahmin chakra system, and quantum physics. Your Human Design Chart is calculated using your birth date, time, and place, to reveal your unique genetic design.Our team at Owl & Key, along with our amazing guest today, share a fascination with radical self discovery and would easily classify ourselves as modality junkies on a journey to collect more wisdom, data, and insights on who we truly are and who we are becoming.Nikki Brafman is a Spiritual Life and Business Coach, Manifestation Teacher, Podcast Host, and Mom. She uses Human Design, her business acumen, and her deep curiosity to show people that they can get exactly what they want by returning to their unique selves.

Levaya for R' Aaron Brafman in Hespedim by Rabbi Daniel Kalish

From the Tiferes Bachurim Tape Library in Morristown, NJ.

In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we caught up with Karmella Haynes from Emory University to talk about her work on synthetic chromatin epigenetics. The Haynes lab focuses on the design of synthetic chromatin sensor proteins. The first one of this kind, the Polycomb Transcription Factor (PcTF), was published in 2011. It senses H3K27me3 and recruits effector proteins to the sites of this modification. This sensor can be brought into cancer cells to activate hundreds of silenced genes. The lab now focuses on characterizing the effects of these sensor proteins genome wide, and seeks to find a way to deliver those sensor into cancer cells, without affecting healthy cells. In this Episode we discuss how Karmella Haynes got into the field of Epigenetics, how she designed the PcTF sensor proteins, and the way she came to learn how important the right control experiments are. In the end we also discuss her activities to promote diversity and inclusion in science.   References Haynes, K. A., & Silver, P. A. (2011). Synthetic Reversal of Epigenetic Silencing.

Like Myers-Briggs, the Enneagram, and many other profiling systems, Human Design is a personality model used to dive deeper in the understanding of the self.   Human Design combines layers of ancient modalities like the Sephirot of the Kabbalah, the Hindu-Brahmin Chakra system, the Chinese I’Ching, and Western Astrology with modern sciences like Biochemistry, Astronomy, Quantum Mechanics, and Genetics.   This system helps us understand our unique personal blueprint for our energy, how we make decisions, our strengths and weaknesses, where we are prone to conditioning, and so much more. It illuminates where we’re in alignment with our authentic selves–and where we’re not–so we can work towards more ease and less stress (and ditch the things that DON’T work for us!).   My guest today, Nikki Brafman, is a Human Design Reader, Business Coach, Mama to 1-year-old Julian, and Speaker. She believes that all chaos comes from living and working out of alignment with our design, our mission, and our values. She uses Human Design as a mirror to show her clients their uniqueness and brilliance as she helps guide them from where they are to where they want to go.   What you’ll learn in this episode:   A beautiful lesson in specificity, niching down and celebrating our innate uniqueness How Human Design brings consciousness and spirituality to business with a scientific lens An overview of the 5 human design energy types and what strategy you should use to allow the most amount of flow (and help eliminate stress!) in both life and business What it means to have a sacral vs. emotional inner Authority How to decipher your chart’s Profile and ‘Not Self’ Theme   Subscribe and Review   Thanks so much for joining me this week.

Quem Esta No Comando? Organizações descentralizadas sonoras têm uma FORTE e enraizada filosofia para que a distribuição das decisões seja possível. Até a chegada da Uberização, o Sapiens praticava apenas a descentralização organizacional sonora (dos lobos). Com a Uberização, o Sapiens passa a praticar a descentralização organizacional por Rastros (das formigas). Organizações por rastros rompem com a barreira numérica do passado: podem praticar a descentralização de massa. O livro de Brafman e Beckstrom tem vários insights interessantes, mas ainda está longe de entender o que ocorre. É o típico livro que percebe bem os sintomas, mas não chega a conceitos mais interessantes, muito menos numa narrativa. Aliás, não se propõe a isso, apenas colocar para fora uma visão parcial e interessante do mundo digital. Agradeço e os coloco dentro da bibliografia da Escola pelos insights que possibilita. É isso, que dizes? https://nepo.com.br/2020/05/13/quem-esta-no-comando/

Recorded Live at Tiferes Bachurim in Morristown, NJ in 2001.

I am extremely excited to introduce my guest for this episode, Nikki Brafman.I would be doing Nikki a disservice if I called her a “business coach”. Instead I will use her own words. Nikki likes to say she shows up for entrepreneurs as a strategic, tactical, and spiritual coach. She focuses on teaching them how to reduce chaos in their lives and businesses. I can say first hand, as a former client, she does EXACTLY what she says she does!I first met Nikki last year through a mutual friend. My friend could tell I was overwhelmed with my business, Franklin & Whitman, and it was growing clear that I needed to talk to someone about it. I had never worked with a business coach before so I really had no idea what to expect. Little did I know that not only was I signing up for a business coach, but I was gaining a new close friend.In this episode we start out talking about how Nikki went from working for entrepreneurs to working with them as a coach. As our conversation grows more personal, we dive into her time living in Israel and how it changed her outlook on day to day life. We round out the conversation focusing on how Nikki discovered the personality model, Human Design, and how she quickly became obsessed with it and realized she could use not only to work on herself but also use it as a tool when dealing with her coaching clients.Nikki likes to say self-excavation is a crucial practice for creatives and entrepreneurs and it can look like a different and unique process for each individual. She strives to give permission for people to seek help in good times and bad. She’s done that for me and I cannot thank her enough for it. I couldn’t be happier that she agreed to be a guest and I hope you enjoy our conversation!Connect With Nikki:Nikki's Website: https://www.nikkibrafman.com/Human Design: https://www.nikkibrafman.com/human-design-for-businessNikki's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nikkibrafman/Human Design For Business Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/humandesignforbusiness/

Ça veut dire : emmènes des caméras dans tes usines, et des caméras de journalistes, pas que ta caméra à toi, emmène des personnes à la rencontre de ceux qui fabriquent les vêtements, montres, expliques comment a été fait telle ou telle fringue, explique pourquoi tu fais des collections qui sont moins souvent renouvelées, avec un vestiaire plus intemporel avec des basiques, expliques pourquoi tu refuses de fabriquer dans tel ou tel endroit (…) Si c’est que du flan, et certaines marques sont tentées de le faire bien évidemment et qu’en fait ils n’ont pas les moyens réels de le montrer, au bout d’un moment cela va se savoir, c’est vite débusqué, donc je pense qu’on ne peut pas surfer trop longtemps sur un truc qui est faux.REFERENCES Ronald VanderkempStéphanie Calvino Anti Fashion Maison Standards Warby Parker Katell PouliquenUriel Karsanti

Often called one of the greatest courtroom storytellers of all time, renowned criminal defense attorney, Ben Brafman, spends an hour of intimate conversation with Alan and guest co-host Melissa Lewkowicz (former legal intern with Ben's firm in New York). Ben will share his thoughts on some of his more well-known cases such as Martin Shkreli, sometimes referred to as “the most hated man in America”, Peter Gayshan, the New York nightclub guru, P.Diddy, Harvey Weinstein (another unpopular fellow), IMF head Dominique Strauss-Khan, and political commentator, Dinesh D'Souza. Hear Ben's thoughts about being a lyric in JAY-Z's rap, “Got Brafman defending me/‘Cause New York'll miss me if I'm locked in a penitentiary”.

Adam and Mark open this week's episode of Reasonable Doubt talking about how fast time flies, especially when you're doing what you love. Then Adam asks Mark about the recent controversy surrounding the Covington High School kids getting into an altercation with some Native Americans.

Tulsa Police Sgt. Brandon Watkins says the person who died Wednesday was a 52-year-old man. He says the man pulled a gun, jumped behind the photo counter to take photos from a clerk and then climbed back over the counter. Watkins says that while other employees tried to call police, a 28-year-old Walgreens employee shot and killed the man. Factors slowing U.S. population growth are a record low birthrate that continues to fall and a death rate that is rising slightly. For the year that ended July 1, the birthrate fell to 59.8 births per 1,000 women aged 15 to 44, according to preliminary data from the National Center for Health Statistics. That’s 14% below the most recent peak, in 2007. Preliminary data show the death rate for the year that ended July 1 rising to 867.6 per 100,000, up 3% from the same period two years earlier. The judge rejected the contention that the grand jury proceeding was flawed and then turned his attention to whether police and prosecutors exhibited bias and pervasive bad deeds to warrant a dismissal. Burke found that "there is no basis for the defendant's claim of prosecutorial or law enforcement misconduct in the proceedings." Not only will he reject the dismissal bid, but he is turning down Brafman's call for an evidentiary hearing to examine the issue. "The defendant may explore any issues of witness credibility at a trial should such witnesses testify," added the judge. The next hearing is March 7. The next phase of pretrial proceedings could have prosecutors and the defense warring over the potential for trial testimony from other women who have publicly accused Weinstein of misconduct.

Ben Brafman is one of America’s most prominent defense attorneys. He has represented Sean Combs, Martin Shkreli, and Harvey Weinstein.
