Pesach Zirkind (Crown Heights) and Bracha Sitrin (Baltimore, MD)
A youth seminar brought together 100 young Jewish men and women from around Russia’s Volga region to Kazan for a week’s worth of programming focusing on family life, strengthening community leadership, and the modern challenges and opportunities in expressing Jewish pride.
Anti-Semitism is a recurrent problem in the world of soccer. Nowhere else, however, is the origin of wide-spread anti-Semitic chants in stadiums as bizarre as in the Netherlands.
Hundreds of Jewish travelers lined tables along Venice, Italy’s Cannaregio Canal one recent Friday night for a starlit Sabbath dinner so big it had to happen in three shifts. Italian, Hebrew, French and English echoed through the streets as they started an event many had come to Venice specifically to experience. And it all took place just steps from where the gates to the area’s Jewish Ghetto once stood.
For the television reporter, clad in his red cagoule emblazoned with the CNN logo, it was a dramatic on-air moment, broadcasting live from Long Island, New York during a hurricane that also threatened Manhattan.
CROWN HEIGHTS [CHI] — Children have always found new and innovative way to get themselves stuck in a tangled situation, from pulling a potty trainer over their head, or getting twisted in a seatbelt of a car, but combine crocks and a bicycle and you end up with a terrified little boys leg squished between a pedal and the bike frame.

A little over a year ago Zalmi Perlman was having pizza with a friend in Jerusalem when they came up with the idea to bicycle across the United States to benefit special needs children.
In this week’s “Opening the week with the Rebbe“: In a Sicha on 3 Elul, 5748 (August 16, 1988) The Rebbe explains why children are clearly part of ”G-d’s Legions”.
A few drops of rain fell early Saturday morning as Mayor Michael Bloomberg was about to talk to reporters about the encroaching Hurricane Irene. A staffer said the news conference was being moved under a nearby overhang, but somehow that never happened.
Twenty years ago, race riots erupted in Crown Heights and an innocent Jewish student was murdered in response to the accidental killing of an African-American child. After the murder, the Rev. Al Sharpton came to Crown Heights and further whipped up an already incensed crowd, leaving some in the Jewish community to demand twenty years later that Sharpton be forever shunned by Jewry and criticizing my friend Rabbi Marc Schneier for inviting him to the Hampton Synagogue.
