  Working on Chol Hamoed - Darche Noam Institutions
“Chol Hamoed”, referring to the intermediate days of Pesach and Sukkot, literally translates as the non-holy (“chol” is the opposite of kodesh) part of the festival (“moed” means appointed time).
The thrust of this whole passage is that the Chol Hamoed work prohibition is a biblical level obligation (mid’oraita).
Chol Hamoed exemplifies a core Jewish approach — sanctifying the chol, creating the bridge between the holy and the mundane.

 Chol Hamoed
On Chol Hamoed many Orthodox families go to amusement parks, the circus, the zoo, and engage in other recreational activities with friends to celebrate Passover or Sukkot.
The prohibition of work on Chol Hamoed, however, differs from the prohibitions of work on the Festivals or Shabbat, which are specifically stated in the Torah.
If the intention is not to deliberately leave work until Chol Hamoed, but rather to simply take a vacation, one is permitted to use their vacation days for the trip.

 Young Israel of Toco Hills - Virtual Library - Rabbi Michael Broyde - Chol HaMoed
The Talmud recounts that the general rule is that work is prohibited on the intermediate days of the festivals (Chol HaMoed); there is a dispute as to whether that prohibition is Biblical or rabbinic.
The issues related to the laws of Chol HaMoed are complex, and are governed by a number of fundamental rules and exceptions that all should familiarize themselves with.
The passing of the days that we call Chol HaMoed — literally the profane days of the holidays — should cause us to pause and ask whether we are each properly balancing the holy with the profane in our own lives.

On Chol Hamoed (the intermediate days of Sukkot and Pesach), some work is prohibited, similar to a holiday, while some is permitted, similar to a weekday.
The goal of prohibiting work on Chol Hamoed is to foster a festive atmosphere and to help us have a sense of holiday on these days.
For the same reason, it is appropriate to mark Chol Hamoed with festive meals and gatherings, to sing, to study the mitzvot of the holiday, and to wear festive clothing.

 Wearing Tefillin on Chol Hamoed
Although certain Melacha is permitted on Chol Hamoed, the Rav explains that fundamentally, the prohibition to perform Melacha applies to Chol Hamoed.
This argument is particularly cogent according to the Rishonim who believe that on a Torah level all Melacha is permited on Chol Hamoed and the restrictions that exist in regard to performing Melacha on Chol Hamoed were instituted by Chazal.
The Rama, however, records that the universally accepted practice among Ashkenazic Jews is to wear Tefillin on Chol Hamoed and to recite the Berachot.

This leads to mutual opposition between the two foundations, the chol against the kodesh and vice versa.
And this opposition also leads to confusion of ideas until it becomes very difficult at times to discern what is chol and what is kodesh.
The chol often maintains a desire for "deeper meaning," and the threat of delegitimization deprives it of that.

The clear implication of this Mishna is that Chazal forbid cutting hair and shaving on Chol Hamoed in ordinary circumstances.
Thus, shaving in contemporary conditions is permitted on Chol Hamoed, analogous to the washing of hand towels in the time of the Gemara.
Rav Soloveitchik argues further that if one is permitted to shave during Chol Hamoed, he must shave on Chol Hamoed lest he appear disheveled during the holiday.

Abstract: To date great number of articles were devoted to cholesterol (chol) but only few articles studied the role for chol in neuron function/degeneration.
At that time it was shown that heart disease patients develop brain deposits of amyloid beta (Ab or Abeta), a major dogmatic molecule of AD; that apoE (a chol transport apolipoprotein) allele e4 is a major genetic risk factor for AD; and that lab animals fed a chol diet express brain amyloid.
We also discovered that neuronal chol homeostasis failure and the lack of chol supply to neurons by means of lipoprotein transport causes AD features, such as the failure of the neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity, degeneration of neuronal cell processes, and tau protein pathology.

The term Chol HaMoed, referring to the intermediary days in the middle of the Pesach holiday, is a difficult one.
The prayer of Adir Adireinu is recited although it is normally said neither on Shabbat nor on Chol HaMoed, suggesting that when Chol HaMoed and Shabbat coincide there is apparently a call to elevate the prayers.
As in the Song of Songs, the Haftarah for Shabbat Chol HaMoed also presents the message that it is only through spiritual elevation that the physical has any meaning.
