Woman tries to pass Counterfeit $50 Bills, Apprehended

On Tuesday, a woman entered a number of stores on Troy Ave and attempted to purchase items using a counterfeit $50 bill. The woman, described as a Black Female, hit three stores on the Avenue, one of which refused the bill. Two other stores accepted purchases ranging from Twenty dollars, to twenty five dollars. The Police were then called after one of the stores, Crown Fabrics, noticed the fake bill. However, the woman had already left the store, and was long gone.

When the police arrived, the sergeant informed the store owner that not much can be done other then to contact the Secret Service which is the government department that handles counterfeit money cases. The sergeant then told the store owner that he will take care of the calls and reports. Later on it occurred to the store owner to check with neighboring stores if the woman attempted to pass the bad money at their stores as well, and turns out the woman made a stop at a hair salon where she made a twenty to twenty five dollar purchase. One other store, My Sweet Art, refused the bill.

Board to weigh Chabad concept

The Times

Princeton, NJ — Chabad Lubavitch of Greater Mercer County is in the infant stages of designing a new, larger synagogue, as well as an extravagant new house for its rabbi.

The Jewish Orthodox sect will present a concept plan to the regional planning board tonight, which will provide a rough sketch of the proposal for the board and the public to comment on. After the meeting, Chabad can decide whether or not to move forward with the plans.

The first building Chabad is proposing is a 5,400-square-foot residence for Rabbi Dovid Dubov to be built on the approximately 18.4 acres of land it bought along the north side of State Road in the township.

Children learn Jewish traditions

Herald Tribune

Venice, FL- In a tradition that dates back thousands of years, 18 children learned to make an ancient Jewish musical instrument, a shofar, at the North Port Educational Center Sunday.

Their teacher, Rabbi Sholum Schmerling, had an assortment of animal horns spread out on a table, as he talked about the horn used on the Jewish high holy days of Rosh Hashana, which begins today.

This program was an outreach program of the Chabad of Venice and North Port and is in its second year. Children don’t have to be affiliated with the Chabad to attend or be Jewish.
