Ruling: Pl is correct that his sale of comp was not fictitious, and at the time of the agreement with def, he intended that cont would receive practical control quickly. However, the sale did not go through as planned, as transfer of shares from pl to cont and control of comp’s bank account were delayed by a year because cont did not pay according to schedule. We do not accept pl’s contention that this control, which included depositing and writing checks, was only a formality. Therefore, the problem of a conflict of interest, when one is, in effect, supervising his own company’s work, is a serious one. Therefore, def’s agreement to pl’s role was based on misrepresentation, and pl does not deserve the balance of his salary that he has demanded, even though there is not proof that he did not visit the building site as much as he was required.
Regarding the choice of comp to do the work, it is clear that pl was significantly involved. However, it was not proved that the choice of comp was not a good one, as their price was lower than another estimate, and def did not prove that it was too high for the work involved. Only the price given for the anti-fire sprinkler system was excessive (400,000 NIS instead of 84,000 NIS offered by a different company). This is reason for pl to not receive his salary for organizing and supervising.

Re'e NEVER EXTREME EXCEPT ISRAEL
Parshat Re'eh
Judaism is against extremism, so how can we understand the seemingly extreme statements found in our sages in favor of living in the Land of Israel and against living in Chutz laAretz? The article deals with the seeming contradiction between the strength of Free-Will and the strength of being influenced by our surroundings.
Ekev DANCE FOR ISRAEL- FOR YOUR BENEFIT
Parshat Eikev
Description: The 7 Haftarot we read after Tisha B'Av ("Shiva D'Nichemta") surely get us excited that they're coming TRUE, and awaken us to yearn, dance & join the return to Zion! The short article also deals with the problems and solutions facing the American Jewish community as discussed at a recent panel, as well as the question why Jews come from America to Israel to help when we face problems, but Israelis don't come to aid Jews in America when they face anti-Semitism.
