Answer 1
A pointer stick called a 'yad' which means 'hand'.
Answer 2
Jews regard the Torah scrolls (which contain the first five books of the Holy Bible) as sacred and they show the Torah great respect. Touching the covered Torah-scroll is permitted; but touching the parchment itself is not allowed (Talmud, Megillah 32a). For this reason, when reading from the Torah scroll, the readers use a pointer (yad). When the Torah scrolls are carried around the synagogue so that the congregation can see it, worshipers tend to touch it with their prayer books (siddurim), rather than with their bare hands. In some ultra-Orthodox congregations, people will kiss the Torah instead of touching it with the prayer books.

Is a Torah Jew an Orthodox Jew?
It depends on how the term is meant. "Torah Jews" can mean more than one thing. If the definition is: Those who live the laws of the Torah (which is the way the phrase "Torah Jews" is usually used), then it is understandably common to reserve that description for observant Jews. It is indeed customary today to call observant Jews "Torah Jews"; so the answer to the question is Yes. The word "Orthodox" is seen by many Torah Jews to be an exonym, i.e. a term applied to them by non-Orthodox, whereas they prefer the term "Torah Jews". If the definition is: Who is Jewish according to the Torah, then Torah Jews would include non-observant Jews, because they don't cease being Jewish. All Jews, regardless of levels of observance are "Torah Jews" since their Jewishness is derived from the Torah's mandates.
