Mendel Meretsky, 7, of State College, prepares challah next to the 9-foot-long loaf baked by Tony Sapia as a part of the Jewish Life Festival on Tuesday. Sapia baked the large loaf and submitted an application to the Guiness Book of World Records in hopes of having baked the largest challah ever.

Situated on a table in the center of a white tent was a 9-foot-long challah, or braided bread.

Baked in a 10-foot-long oven at Gemelli's Bakery, 129 S. Pugh St., by Tony Sapia, the challah is in contention for a record in the Guinness Book of World Records.

WINNING SMILE: Jimmy Groves, in his Harlem
'hood yesterday, said, “I didn't have a dime
in my pocket” until his purchase of a Mega
Millions ticket.
James “Jimmy” Groves — a Madison Square Garden laborer who recently defaulted on his Capital One credit-card debt — yesterday told The Post that he's the person who won half of a $336 million Mega Millions lottery jackpot two weeks ago.

“It feels great!” said Groves, 49, near his home in the crime-riddled Grant Houses. “I'm going to Disney World!

”I was down and out, and I didn't have a dime in my pocket. I asked for a lottery ticket, in 26 installment payments. And the next day, I won $166 million.

“Then the lottery people called me back and told me it was [actually] $168 million,” said the father of two, who has not been publicly confirmed by lottery officials as the winner.

Cops at the Labor Day Parade this past Monday. Illustration Photo.

The following letter was written by a frum NYPD cop, and sent to his father-in-law. Names were omitted.

Dear Schver,

I just got home from working a triple shift- I went to work at 4:30pm on Sunday, and it is currently 1:20am on Tuesday. Nonetheless, I feel it is important to e-mail you concerning an incident which occurred tonight.

I was sent to the West Indian Parade Detail in Crown Heights earlier tonight, together with ten other officers. During a lull in the chaos the [revelers] on the street were creating, my Sgt. overheard me saying that the G. family had invited me over to eat by them. He was intrigued that anyone would want a cop eating over in their house in that neighborhood, and asked if he could join me.
