SAN JOSE, CA — The network that launched the U.S. wireless industry with brick-sized — and brick-heavy — cell phones 24 years ago will switch off in most of the country next year, leaving a surprising number of users in the lurch.

Older OnStar systems for cars, home alarms and up to a million cell phones will lose service starting in February under a 2002 federal decision that allows carriers to switch the spectrum over from analog to digital technologies, which would use it more efficiently.

Learning on the Coney Island bound N train!

CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] — Thursday, Yud Aleph Teves was an exciting day for the students of Lubavitcher Yeshiva’s second grade as they set out to fulfill the directive of the Rebbe in the Hayom Yom of that day.

The boys went on a journey to “purify the air” bringing torah to the subway trains, over ground trains, streets and stores. The Talmidim were full of liveliness as they recited the twelve Pesukim and Chumash in an effort to be “metaher ha’avir” from Crown Heights to Coney Island.
