On Wednesday, Jewish public school students who attend the Released Time program were given a taste of Pesach. They learned hands-on the ins and outs of the upcoming holiday.
Sausage is a sin no more – even for Passover. Two Crown Heights foodies who started a kosher meat and deli business 18 months ago are adding specially-made sausage for the holiday which starts Friday at sundown.
Yesterday, Yud Aleph Nissan, 5772, a state-of-the-art men’s mikvah was dedicated in Ramat Shlomo, Yerushalayim. The mikvah, named Ohr Meir, is situated in the 770 of Jerusalem, which has become a landmark in the city and part of the Yerushalayim landscape.
Forget the Lottery. The biggest windfall in the country this Passover season might well be coming to an otherwise anonymous man named Glade who works at a Jewish funeral monument company in St. Louis.

Last Tuesday a few LA bochrim sat down, having just returned from their yeshivas abroad for Pesach break. Together they decided to make a mitzvah tank parade in their hometown. It would to be the first mitzvah tank parade in over 16 years to hit the streets of Los Angeles.
The 71st precinct managed to reach a new low yesterday: just as the Mitzva Take Parade was getting ready to set off, one police officer – who was assigned to watch the tanks – found the time to offer his own birthday gift to Rebbe: an expensive parking ticket.
Lubavitcher Yeshiva and the Small Wonder Puppet Theater are hosting their annual pre-Pesach puppet show for children at 1:00pm on Thursday in Lubavitcher Yeshiva on Crown Street. All are welcome.
A Crownheights.info reader, who participated in yesterday’s Yud Aleph Nissan Mitzvah Tank parade, sent us this photo he captured of Reb Pinye Korf doing Mivtzoim on the streets of Manhattan.
Alternate side parking (street cleaning) regulations will be suspended on Thurday, April 5th, and Friday, April 6th. All other regulations, including parking meters, remain in effect.
Rabbi Berel Zaklikofsky, director of Chabad of Goodyear, was featured on the cover of this month’s Hamlet Magazine celebrating Passover with his wife Chana Rivkah and members of the Chabad House.
Eight years of selfless service to the Crown Heights Beis Din, as well as a Psak Din upholding it, is not enough to keep Rabbi Sholom Segal’s name in the phone directory when calling the offices of the Beis Din. Neither is the fact that he is selling chometz allowed to be posted on the Beis Din’s front door.
Why does the Pesach seder conclude with “L’shana haba b’Yerushalayim”? Is it simply the end of 15 seemingly unconnected stages describing Yetzias Mitzrayim? Or is it the start of a transformation that takes us from the First Redemption to the Final Redemption?
When it came time to observe my mother’s first yahrzeit last week, I was in Mitzpe Ramon in the Negev. A fitting place since my mother, Sondra, was an avid traveler and particularly enjoyed her many visits to Israel.
