I have just been given a sneak preview of photographer Frederic Aranda's new photography exhibition, Kosherface, and was blown away. Boasting seven years of photographs of Orthodox Jewish Rabbis, this is a unique, unseen body of work on a private community. Approaching the subject from inside, but as a fashion photographer, he has created something really quite unique.

There aren't just fewer jobs in a recession. There are fewer babies, too. U.S. births fell in 2008, the first full year of the recession, marking the first annual decline in births since the start of the decade and ending an American baby boomlet.

BROOKLYN, NY [CHI] — As part of its Living Archive Preservation Project, JEM has released a DVD with over 50 hours newly restored audio of Farbrengens of the Rebbe.

Rabbi Yanky and Chanshy Majesky of North Orlando

Chabad, which is a Hebrew acronym meaning “wisdom, understanding, and knowledge,” is a philosophy, a movement, and an international organization all rolled into one. Chabad has already sent over 4,000 emissary families all over the world to provide Jewish education and community to the far reaches of the globe. Here in Orlando, we are already fortunate enough to have 3 emissaries, or “shluchim”: The Chabad of Greater Orlando in Maitland, the Chabad of South Orlando near Universal Studios, and the Chabad at UCF in Oviedo. Well now the greater Orlando area can count itself even luckier as we welcome our fourth Chabad center! As we speak, the Chabad of North Orlando is settling into Sanford, FL to provide the northeast corner of the Orlando Metro area with another center for Jewish learning and living.
