Op-Ed: Chabad is Fighting for Religious Freedom

by Nate Zimmerman – Litchfield County Times

Rabbi Joseph I. Eisenbach is suing Lichtfield County for violating his constitutional rights by not allowing him to build his synagogue in the building he purchased (Pictured above).

A man was biking through the countryside. As he approached a fork in the road, he saw that the road sign had been blown down. He could no longer tell which road would lead to his destination. Undaunted, he picked up the sign and looked for the part indicating his original destination. He was now able to discern the direction in which he needed to go.

New JCM Exhibits Will Immerse Children in Story

by Libby Herz – Chabad.org

A representation of the biblical Jacob’s Ladder is part of the Jewish Children’s Museum’s new fourth-floor exhibit highlighting the long history of the Jewish people.

Enter one of four vibrantly colored canvas entrances, and you’ll immediately find yourself at ease in Abraham and Sarah’s cozy tent. Come March 2012, more than 1 million expected visitors will feel the same way when they get up close to “The Ancient Story of a Modern People,” the brand new fourth floor addition to Brooklyn, N.Y.’s Jewish Children Museum.

When attending the annual conference of Chabad emissaries in New York, I am frequently tempted to contrast it with similar conventions whose attendees are mandated with securing the Jewish future. Particularly the Jewish Federations’ General Assembly comes to mind as it often takes place around the same time.

A new music video shows exclusive footage from Rubashkin’s Game Plan, the long awaited documentary film focusing both on the case of Sholom Rubashkin, and dual reaction of anger and solidarity from the Jewish community following the unprecedented harsh sentence handed down in the case.

When it comes to student cooking, I consider myself a serial bad-habit maker; a culinary Jack the Ripper. I’ve committed all the gastronomic sins: Buying microwave meals, not checking the sell-by date on milk and the classic ‘healthy epiphany.' Over-zealously buying vegetables then forgetting about them later, leading to a severe biohazard situation developing in the fridge two weeks later... (or was it a month?)
