Not far from the shops and restaurants of Westwood Village is a veterans cemetery. So many people drive on the adjacent 405 Freeway and probably do not reflect that they pass near hallowed ground.

An enthusiastic article about the Givot Olam Oil Exploration Company on an Israeli Chabad website sent the partnership’s share price up 6.3% by early afternoon today to NIS 0.068, giving a market cap of NIS 676 million. But some speculators are concerned the article may be a bit exaggerated.

The rallies…These scenes have been seared on our collective memory. The Rubashkins, though, have chosen to move forward. They’ve relocated and recalculated, adjusting the rhythm and routine of daily life to meet new challenges.
Students in Rabbi Goldman’s fifth grade in Oholei Torah were rewarded for a year of a good behavior and diligent learning. The entire class went to Q-cumber Café on Kingston and enjoyed pizza, fries and soda – all donated by the owner, who is also a parent of one of the kids.
I knew it was happening, I even heard the drumming, but I did not attend the annual 71st Precinct Family Day Picnic.
