A story which recently appeared in the news section of Chabad.org about a Jewish Golf pro who refuses to play on Yom Kippur has the staff at the Jewish Telegraphic Agency all in a dither. Chabad.org portrayed Letitia Beck as the 'Sandy Koufax of women’s professional golf,' but the JTA says that title actually belongs to a Jewish woman who refused to play golf on Yom Kippur long before Sandy Koufax was born.

The man at the podium is filling the role of the Rebbe's secretary, who would slide a dollar bill toward the Rebbe for him to distribute to each person seeking a blessing.

Following Attacks, Rabbis Issue Letters

Following a violence filled week, various Chabad Rabbis have issued a new set of letters with instructions on how to handle the threats and violence. The letters contrast sharply: Rabbi Osdoba along with Rabbi Yeruslavsky came out strong and decisively, saying “It is a shocking and terrible thing,” and even drew parallels to the Chabda-Satmar violence of the 1980s. On the other hand, Rabbis Schwei and Braun all but accused the victims of provoking the attacks, and warned against Messirah.

A portion of the video capturing the mattress thefts which took place on Sunday.

A Bochur walking home late at night was attacked from behind, a towel wrapped around his head so that he could not see his attackers, kicked and punched to the moment he felt that he was surely going to die. A group of four walks into a dorm where guests are staying and steal mattresses, quilts and pillows. A Maggid Shiur gets interrupted in 770 then shoved around and bullied. This was but a handful of incidents perpetrated by a band of Tzfatis last week.

Rabbi Shalom Ber Lipshitz arrived in New York on a Thursday after a long flight from Israel with plans to continue on to Canada immediately. Rabbi Lipshitz, a Chabad-Lubavitch rabbi, headed an organization supporting Jewish educational institutions in the Land of Israel. He was travelling specifically to attend a fundraising event and hoped that spending the Sabbath with the locals would enable him to share his success stories in a more relaxed environment.
