	Yarmulke - Kippot - Judaica Guide
		A Yarmulke or Kippah (plural Kippot) is a thin, usually slightly rounded cloth cap worn by religious Jews on their heads.
		The Yarmulke is the most commonly known and recognized piece of Jewish garb, but it is actually the one with the least religious significance.
		The source for wearing a Yarmulke is found in the Talmud, where it is states "Cover your head in order that the fear of heaven may be upon you."

	Yarmulke From Wikipedia
		A yarmulke (Yiddish יאַרמלקע; yarmlke) or Kippah (Hebrew "כִּפָּה;" kippah, plural kippot) is a thin, usually slightly rounded cloth cap worn by Jews.
		Yarmulkes range in size from 6" in diameter to 9 1/2" (150 mm to 240 mm) or larger.
		Traditionally, yarmulke is considered to have originated from the Aramaic phrase "yarei mei-elokah" (in awe of Eloah), in keeping with the principle that the yarmulke is supposed to reflect someone's fear of heaven.

	Yarmulkes in the United States Air Force - Associated Content
		Whether the yarmulke worn by Rabbi Goldman in the Air Force was a symbol for his identification with Judaism or a violation of a regulation in the Air Force, the initial decision from the Supreme Court reflected a violation of his First Amendment rights, resulting in an unfair removal of his religious identity.
		The yarmulke is a significant symbol of the identity and religious beliefs of the Jewish people.
		For many Jews, the yarmulke is such a strong symbol that it is not only a symbol of their group identity but of their self-identity as well.

	Goldman v Weinberger
		In addition to its religious significance for the wearer, the yarmulke may evoke the deepest respect and admiration -- the symbol of a distinguished tradition and an eloquent rebuke to the ugliness of anti-Semitism.
		For the difference between a turban or a dreadlock on the one hand, and a yarmulke on the other, is not merely a difference in "appearance" -- it is also the difference between a Sikh or a Rastafarian, on the one hand, and an Orthodox Jew on the other.
		To the contrary, a yarmulke worn with a United States military uniform is an eloquent reminder that the shared and proud identity of United States serviceman embraces and unites religious and ethnic pluralism.

	How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Yarmulke
		I was worried about fitting in and felt that wearing a yarmulke would prevent me from becoming part of the political-social network, thereby impinging on my ability to adequately represent important causes.
		With a yarmulke, it is easier to remember what separates us from God and what brings us close.
		My yarmulke is a visible sign to others — and an ever-present reminder to myself — of that commitment.

	What are Kippot or Yarmulkes
		A person wearing a plain fl yarmulke is generally recognized as presenting himself as being in a state of religious impurity or of mourning, whereas a white one symbolizes festivity and religious purity.
		A yarmulke may carry a design that can be of the same color as the kippah or in a completely different, contrasting color or colors.
		It may be an integral part of the yarmulke’s texture, one that is knitted or crocheted into it, one that is embroidered on it or painted or printed over the kippah or imprinted.

	Jef Raskin - An History of the Yarmulke
		For example, in the American culture of the late 20th century, a variety of hat was introduced that served principally as a display of tribal colors and (often imagined) group affiliation.
		Among followers of the reform movement, a yarmulke can often be found at the bottom of the sock drawer, or along with old bar mitzvah photographs in a cardboard box in the attic.
		This particular portion of the custom probably started when their mothers told them to be sure to wear their hats so they shouldn't catch cold.
