Summer Hiatus Challenge -- Round 5, Day 4
As if I didn't have enough problems, this weekend is the Twins' 9th birthday, which means they're hosting their first ever slumber party.
I plan to hide.
As a good friend of mine might say, Oof dah.
ETA: Reminder that there is an RQ in this set related to R5D2's 12-pointer.

HEBREW WORDS & PHRASES
12: Literally "fortune" or "destiny," if you're being congratulated yours might be "tov," or "good."
ISLANDS IN THE STREAM
2: In 1998, the Supreme Court ruled that landfill placed in this river to expand Ellis Island belongs to New Jersey, not New York.
4: Now divided into four islands by natural channels, the Ilha Tupinambarana is the largest island chain in this South American river.
6: Slovakia's Great Rye Island, the largest river island in Europe, is surrounded by this river.
8: The Mbanu island group directs the flow of this river through the Stanley Pool and between Kinshasa and Brazzaville.
10: Richards Island, the largest river island in North America, is bounded by the Beaufort Sea, Reindeer Channel, and this second-longest river in North America.
RE: YOUR BRAINS
3: This brain test which measures current flowing through the scalp is used to distinguish epileptic seizures from other types of brain dysfunction.
6: A “functional” variety of this brain scan maps blood flow to part of the brain in response to images or sensations.
9: Affecting only girls, Rett Syndrome is a pervasive development disorder sometimes categorized on this “spectrum.”
12: Three-letter abbreviation of the standard guide used by psychologists and psychiatrists to identify and classify mental and emotional disorders.
15: An injury to Broca's area can lead to this class of language disorders, ranging from struggling to remember words to inability to speak.
