As Calm Returns to England, Leaders Consider Roots of Rioting

by Mordechai Lightstone – Lubavitch.com

After nearly a week of rioting and chaos, a sense of calm has finally returned to the streets in cities across the United Kingdom. What started as a youth protest in North London last Sunday after the death of a London man quickly turned violent. Police struggled to quell the looting and destruction as it spread across London and other cities.

Op-Ed: From Mourning to Morning

by Yochanan Gordon

Let’s just say we are all happy that the three weeks and nine-days are finally over. Superficially, while it seems that this happiness expresses itself on various levels in a cross-section of people – the truth is, at its core we are all rejoicing for the same reason – that is, our ability at this time to achieve through kindness and compassion what we have attempted to do through sadness and grief. But just as the seasons change, this joyous season too will pass on by unless we can effect true and lasting change; change that we have been pursuing for thousands of years and until now has been so illusive.

For Daniel Agami, 9/11 Attack Was a Call to Service

Daniel Agami was working as a disc jockey in South Florida when the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 changed the trajectory of his life.

Suddenly it didn’t feel like performing at events and parties for well-known entertainers was all Agami, then 22, could be doing with his talents. For nearly a year, Agami wrestled with his emotions over the attacks, often talking to his parents and siblings about his anger.

After Riots, Jews Stayed in Crown Heights

Forward

The most enduring lesson of the Crown Heights riots is that the Jews did not abandon the neighborhood after the violence.

On the morning of July 22, 1966, The New York Times pushed aside its coverage of the Vietnam War and the Gemini 10 space flight mission to devote its lead story to a riot that had struck the Brooklyn neighborhood of East New York the previous night. Next to the article appeared a photo of a garbage can crashing through a butcher shop’s window. On the remaining shards of glass were the Hebrew letters for the word “kosher.”

‘Roving Rabbis’ Seek Out Elusive South Side Jews

Chicago Tribune

Yeshiva students Yessi Edelkopf, 21, left, and Shaul Wolf, 20, are spending three weeks in the South Side as Roving Rabbis ministering to Jewish residents without a faith community.

It’s not every day residents on Chicago’s South Side see two men in Orthodox Jewish garb walking the streets. But they might see them every day for the rest of the month.

Unsafe Worksite Leads to Accident, 2 Injured Workers

CROWN HEIGHTS [CHI] — Two ConEd workers were injured this morning in an incident that can only be chalked up to unsafe work practice, at the fault of the workers themselves.

Accidents August 15, 2011

Some of the worst-hit areas were on Staten Island. At Amboy Road in Bay Terrace, Department of Environmental Protection crews tried to clear the clogged storm drains. In one intersection, eight cars were totally submerged and had to be pulled to dry land.

New York City set a record for rainfall on Sunday. By 5 p.m., 7.6 inches had fallen at John F. Kennedy International Airport in Queens — the most ever recorded there in a single day. The National Weather Service said the driving rain broke the previous record of 6.3 inches, set in 1983.
