The Hamsa King

Once upon a time, there was a king and he was the most powerful king in the whole, wide world; he's also the richest king in the whole, wide world. But. There is one problem: He has only one eye. Uh-oh. Unlucky and he had one leg, long, and the other leg, short, so he was a limping king. I'm very sorry for this terrible story. Okey. This king was the most powerful and the most richest, so he needed a portrait of himself, a full body picture. He decide to have it made; had it painted and he put a notice in the city asking for the best painters in the world to paint his full body portrait and he promised a lot of dollars for the winner. 
Here came the first painter: he painted exactly the same as the king with one, handsome eye, and the other eye, pirate with one leg, long, and one leg, short. The king saw his picture and he was really very, very angry and he had this artist killed. 
Then, came the second painter. This time, he knew that the first painter was killed because he painted one eye, one leg, long, and one leg, short, so he decided to paint the king extremely handsome. He painted two eyes and he painted his legs like normal: a handsome king. The king saw the picture and was very angry. The king knows himself: with one eye, one leg, long, and one leg, short. This was absolutely cheating, so the king was angry and had this artist killed. 
Two great artists were killed and they didn't get any money. Tsk, tsk, tsk. 
And here came the third artist and he gave the portrait of the king. The king saw the picture and was very, very happy. The third artist did a wonderful job and got a lot of money. He was really smart. Did you know how? 
His reflection.

Asian Tigers

"[I] call from the east a swift bird" (Isaiah 46:11)               
The Children of Ever, Yoktan and Peleg, will sojourn back and finally honor The Covenant of Constellations at The Cave of the Patriarchs and Matriarchs. They will pay tribute to The Children of Sarah Imeinu. The corruptible Children of Yafet will marvel at the display of The Children of The East, as these small and numerous descendants of Keturah avenge the blood of their eldest half-brother, Yitzhak, with an abundance of gifts from Avraham Avinu: in tact and unhallowed Martial Artistry.
