Most Jewish holidays are famously summed up in the following way: They tried to kill us. We survived. Let's eat. Passover is hardly an exception. Moses, the Pharaoh, the first-born children, ten plagues, parting the red sea, unrisen matzoh bread, diaspora, desert, oy vey. The story is generally the same everywhere, but the traditions of celebration are not. Passover is famous for matzoh and gefilte fish (even though the latter doesn't actually have an actual connection to the holiday) - but in non-Western Jewish communities, there are customs that go beyond afikoman and Elijah's cup of wine. From eating brick dust to scallion whippings, the different customs practiced on one of the most significant holidays in the Jewish calender can be as strange as they are fascinating.

Essential tips for getting ahead in your first job. Turns out some of them are pretty surprising, right? They are--and that's why I started wondering about some of the recommendations floating out there that are still considered sage work advice for career girls...well, are they still DOs?

I decided to run this theory by Alexis Sclamberg, an anything-but-hokey self-help expert and motivational speaker who rocked the house at the Massachusetts Conference for Women. She knew exactly what I was talking about. After her previous career as a prestigious but stressed-out attorney led to "a total meltdown," Sclamberg got her priorities in order, began to help others do the same, and even set to writing an upcoming book on the topic called Borrowed Wisdom: The Best Advice They Never Tell Us.
