University of Minnesota. Inset: New Chabad House at “fraternity row”

Dominated by fraternity housing, university buildings and student services, University of Minnesota’s “fraternity row” hasn’t seen a building change hands in more than 17 years. But this fall, the frat houses in the aptly-named “Dinkytown, USA,” will make way for a new type of home: a Chabad House.

In His Own Hand, a Suspect’s Account of a Grisly Crime. [Update: Killer’s Handwritten Confession Added]

New York Times

Levi Aron at his arraignment

“My name is Levi Aron,” the writer began. Then, in small, distinct print, and in short prosaic sentences on one full page of lined paper he submitted to the police, Mr. Aron told the story of how he had kidnapped, killed and systematically dismembered an 8-year-old boy who had gotten lost one afternoon in Brooklyn on the way back from camp and had sought his help.

YU Study: DNA, Not Lifestyle, Is Key to Longevity

Jerusalem Post

Healthy centenarians lucky enough to have inherited “longevity genes” can thank their genetic makeup for their long lives. Unlike everybody else, they didn’t have to watch their diet, exercise daily or avoid alcohol to reach that age. They didn’t even have to stop smoking – although tobacco use would certainly harm their descendants.

Video: Rabbi Dr. J. Immanuel Schochet — What is Faith?


Watch this brilliant clip to learn what real faith is all about. It’s not blind belief and acceptance of information or values. Rabbi Dr. J. Immanuel Schochet illuminates the fundamental connection between faith and knowledge. True faith that is rooted in knowledge is exhibited in a person who synthesizes information and allows the logical consequences of this reality to have an affect on the way he or she lives.

Modesty Helps Women Be Friends

by Jennifer Fulwiler – NC Register

One of the things I’ve found most refreshing about religious culture is the understanding of the importance of modesty. Though each woman may have different ideas about exactly what it means to be modest, there is a general agreement that putting forth some level of conscious effort to avoid looking like a backup dancer in a Snoop Dogg video is a good thing. And it’s fascinating to see the effect that it has on women’s interactions with one another.
