 Divrei Torah Parshas Massai
One of the common idolatries (Avoda Zara) in Egypt was known as Ba'al Tzafon, in fact, it was the only one of their idolatries to actually outlast the others.
The idolatry of Ba'al Tzafon was one that focused on the wanton chasing of wealth.
The reason is because while they were still in Egypt, Ba'al Tzafon expressed itself as idolatry, and the evil inclination to follow it meant to worship that idol.

The larger half, the afikoman, is wrapped in a napkin or placed in special afikoman bag and placed under the leader's cushion or pillow.
At some point later in the meal, it is customary for the children to "steal" and hide the afikoman, only to return it (for a handsome ransom, of course) at the end of the meal during Tzafon.
Once the afikoman is found, it is broken up and distributed for all the Seder participants as "dessert." Again, all participants are obligated to eat a k'zayit of matzah, so everyone should receive a small piece of the afikoman and supplement the rest with other matzah.

This breached side is none other than the tzafon, the north side of the world, as the verse indicates, "Notei tzafon al tohu -- He stretches forth the north over tohu [emptiness, chaos], and suspends the earth upon bli-mah [no-thing-ness]" (Job 26:7).
And another verse states, "Omar la'tzafon, teni -- I will say to the north, 'Give forth!'" (Isaiah 43:6), that is, in the Future, G-d will tell the tzafon [Gan Eden] to yield all of its goodness to the righteous.
Rather, the truth is that tzafon [north] is the side of gevura and Isaac, just as darom [south] is the side of chesed and Abraham.

 Off the airwaves - Haaretz - Israel News
Over the last few years, Mizrahi (Middle Eastern or Mediterranean) music's primary campaign has been against not the mainstream Israeli stations, Channel Two and Army Radio, but against those considered the strongholds of Mizrahi music - the regional radio stations.
Since they went on the air in 1993, the regional radio stations - primarily Radio Lelo Hafsaka, Radio Tzafon and Radio Lev Hamedina - have become home to a huge audience of Mizrahi music fans whose tastes have been ignored by the leading mainstream stations.
Up until two years ago, Radio Lelo Hafsaka, and especially Didi Harari's show "Didi Locali," set the tone.
