High Tech Gemara Learning at Darchai Menachem
CROWN HEIGHTS [CHI] — Eleven boys sit poised in a brightly-painted third floor classroom at Yeshiva Darchai Menachem, in the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn, New York. The atmosphere in the room has the feeling of a quiz show.

To honor his memory, a Sefer Torah is being written exclusively by Children in the Army of Hashem from all over the world through a global Learn-A-Thon.

Anash and Tmimim escorting Rabbi Raskin on his way to the Rebbe
Tuesday marked the fifth anniversary of the passing Rabbi Yehuda Leib Raskin, Chabad emissary to Morocco for more than 44 years.
Born in Russia in 1933, Raskin escaped with his family to Kazakhstan during World War II. There he met Rabbi Schneerson’s father, Rabbi Levi Yitzchak Schneerson, right after his release from prison and exile. The young Raskin often assisted the elder Schneerson with his religious and physical needs.

MTA Bailout Package Would Curb Spendthrift Agency
By Juan Gonzalez for the NY Daily News
ALBANY, NY — Lawmakers in Albany may have finally put some brakes on the runaway MTA.
