TEAM UOJ - AT WORK - MONDROWITZ PHOTOS!




I Urge all readers of the blog to take the time, immediately, and whenever possible, to contact Sol Werdiger and let him know the message we want him to convey to the Gerer Rebbe: that we are not going to tolerate any more coverups and whitewashings for Mondrowitz; that this man must face justice for abominable crimes; that anyone who aids or protects a criminal is morally as culpable as the criminal himself; and that we will be sure to expose anyone guilty of coverup just as we are succeeding in exposing the story of Mondrowitz. They might mention Pirkei Avoth, 4:5: "Whoever is mi'chalel Hashem in secret will be chastised publicly."

DO IT NOW. Time is of the essence. We may never have such a good chance to ensure that this worst of cases may finally see some justice.

I think this man should hear as much as possible from as many people as possible who are tired of the coverup of Mondrowitz.

Mondrowitz is being held until NOVEMBER 27 (which is his 60th birthday, by the way) when there will be another hearing to determine whether he is to remain incarcerated or released with an electronic tracking device. His lawyer, David Ofek, argued today that the court will have to determine whether he can be held because of the "statute of limitations."

We have to be disciplined and focused in our response. So, for right now... let's hit Werdiger. Hard, and repeatedly. I want him to be so stunned in the next few days he'll be asking the rebbe to do something, anything to get him out of trouble.

TRANSLATION OF JUSTICE SHIMON FEINBERG’S DECISION


CASE No. 011944/07



HONORABLE JUSTICE SHIMON FEINBERG





THE STATE OF ISRAEL,

REPRESENTATIVE OF THE GOVERNMENT



VS.



AVROHOM MONDROWITZ,



RESPONDENT





APPEARING BEFORE THE COURT:



For the Plaintiff: Nili Gesser, Esq. and Marilyn Mazal-Hershkovitz Esq.



For the Defendant: David Ofek, Esq. and Tzivia Golovik Esq.





DECISION



1. In the matter of the request to extend the detention of the Respondents pursuant to Article 7 of the Extradition Law of 1954 (“Extradition Law”).



2. In 1985 the Respondent was issued an indictment in New York, United States on the charges of sodomy and other sexual assaults against five minors between the ages of nine through fifteen. The authorities of the United States issues an arrest warrant against him. However, before they were able to execute the warrant the Respondent fled to Israel. That year, the American authorities requested that the Israeli Government extradite the Respondent back to the United States. At that time the treaty between the two countries did not allow extradition for the crimes the Respondent was accused of. The State of Israel decided to remove him from the country. During that process, the Respondent appealed to the Israeli Supreme Justice Court and the State of Israel decided to abandon the proceedings of his removal. From that time on, the Respondent has been living with his family in Israel.



3. During the course of the past year the protocols of the extradition treaty were modified in a manner in which the crimes that the Respondent stands accused of by the courts of New York became extraditable crimes. In September 2007, the United States authorities requested the extradition of the Respondent from the State of Israel.



4. The Respondent was arrested on November 11, 2007 pursuant to Article 6 of the Extradition Treaty. The Requester now asks for an extension of the Respondent’s incarceration for an additional 12 days for the purpose of obtaining an updated extradition request to amend the request filed many years ago.



5. A hearing of the allegations was held before this Court on November 16, 2007. The Representative today introduced the following additional facts. In May of 2007, a search was conducted of the Respondent’s home where four films containing child pornography were discovered. The Requester also argued that the likelihood of the Respondents fleeing is high if he is not detained, because of his recent knowledge of the change in the Extradition Treaty which now allows his return to United States. The Requester further argues that the Respondent is a threat to the public as evidenced by the above material discovered in his home.



6. The Respondent argued that there are issues of statute of limitations and extensive period of time that has passed since the initial extradition request was made and denied. The Respondent requests that he be released in a manner which assures that the Respondent will reappear once the extradition proceedings commence, even suggesting that the Respondent be released to house arrest and monitored via an electronic monitoring bracelet.



7. The first question to consider is if the Respondent is a candidate for extradition based upon the revised extradition treaty? (See paragraph 6 of the extradition treaty.) We need to answer this request in a positive manner. The treaty between the two countries today states that these offenses are extraditable crimes. The Requester holds affidavits given on behalf of the victims/complainers against the Respondent about the crimes that the Respondent committed. All this evidence is the basis for the indictment against the Respondent, by the Unites States government.



8. Regarding the Respondents claim as to the statute of limitations and the large amount of time that has elapsed, Paragraph 2B (a) 6 of the extradition law, the upholding of the law is conditioned upon the time of the crime or its punishment not exceeding the statute of limitations according to Israeli law. According to paragraph 9 (a) 2 of the Israeli criminal code of 1982, a person cannot be prosecuted for a crime (except in death penalty or life in prison cases) if a period of ten years has past since the day the crime was committed. According to paragraph 9 (3) the statute of limitations commences either from the time of the last day of the investigation, or the day of the indictment or the last day of the proceeding in a court of law, whichever comes last. In our case, all of the proceedings as stated in paragraph 9 (3) above, occurred over ten years ago. The Representative of the government expressed that the statute of limitations might be an issue, however the courts in previous verdicts have recognized other cases where the statute of limitations was frozen where the accused has escaped before prosecution. Based upon paragraph 94-1 (3) of the criminal code, we can come to reject the claim against the statute of limitations.

(See criminal appeal 739-07 (supreme) Yonatan Efrat vs. Attorney General)

I have reviewed this case and concluded that there is a solid basis for the Requesters request regarding the statute of limitations; however this issue has some effect on my decision as to keeping the Respondent incarcerated as I will explain.



9. Another question that paragraph 6 of the extradition law raises is if there is a probable cause that an extradition request shall be filed? To that we answer in the affirmative, and the United States government has declared specifically that it will do so.



10. According to the previous decisions, in a hearing where the subject is in accordance with paragraph 7 to the extradition law, the court shall consider the regular arguments for keeping a person in custody, among them being the safety of the public, the concern of interfering with the investigation and primarily the fear of the accused fleeing, which is a permanent concern in a case of an extradition proceeding. In addition, the court shall consider the commitment that Israel has towards the requesting country – a commitment that is established in an international treaty that is the basis of the extradition law- to extradite the suspect and allow his extradition to the requesting country. This last consideration is a crucial one in a sense that at times it is justified to keep a person in custody even though general custody considerations state that he is to be released, because of the extra dimension that is as a result of Israel’s duty towards the requesting country. [Hon. Justice D. Banish (aka) see case #4422/03 Yitzchak Cohen vs. Attorney General.] These considerations are brought into account also during a proceeding of a requesting of incarceration prior to declaring a person extraditable [See case Jerusalem 11287/04 attorney General vs. Zev Rosenshtien.]



11. In our case, consideration for continued incarceration evolved from danger to the public and fear of the accused fleeing from justice. As to the consideration of danger to the public, findings of the investigation against the Respondent by the Israeli Police Department create a probable cause that the accused is still an active or potential pedophile. The fact that against the accused no criminal offenses have been brought does not negate the known danger of these offenses, especially in the ultra orthodox sector that the accused belongs to, because the victims and their families very often do not complain to the police because of the will of that sector to attempt to solve those problems internally without police involvement, to avoid humiliation to the family. I am not establishing that the accused has commenced any crimes in Israel, but I am not ruling that out either. The fear of fleeing from justice evolves from the revised treaty that allows the extradition of the accused to the United States, a situation that did not exist during the entire period of the accused’s stay in Israel. Additionally, one must bring into account the commitment of the State of Israel towards the requesting country that was established in an international treaty that is the basis of extradition law.



12. All of the above leads me to the conclusion to grant the Representatives request and to hereby order the continued incarceration of the accused. Nevertheless, due to the legality of the statute of limitation as I stated above, there is no room to rule out a potential alternative to incarceration as suggestion by the accused council.



13. Therefore, I hereby extend the incarceration of the accused as requested until November 27, 2007 at 12:00 PM. I am ordering a recommendation report of the Probational Service Office for consideration of a substitute for incarceration including house arrest with an electronic monitoring device. The report shall additionally consider the danger that the accused possesses. The report shall be submitted before the end of the term of incarceration. The report may be used by this court if an additional request for incarceration is filed according to paragraph 7A of the extradition law or if there is a request to declare the accused as extraditable.

14. The secretarial office shall send a copy of this decision to the probation service office.



Given today November 18, 2007 in the presence of all parties.



Shimon Feinberg, Judge

Ex-Brooklyn rabbi Avrohom Mondrowitz faces extradition to U.S. on kid-sex rap!

BY MATTHEW KALMAN
SPECIAL TO THE NEWS

Monday, November 19th 2007, 4:00 AM

Avrohom Mondrowitz (this summer - left ---- In court - right )

JERUSALEM - A Jerusalem magistrate Sunday ordered a former Brooklyn rabbi accused of raping several boys 20 years ago to jail while American and Israeli officials finalize a U.S. request for his extradition.

Avrohom Mondrowitz, a father of seven, faces extradition to stand trial in New York to answer a 1985 indictment on four counts of sodomy and eight counts of sexual abuse in the first degree.

Mondrowitz, 60, once a popular child psychologist and youth counselor in Borough Park, allegedly sodomized the boys after befriending them or after taking them on trips to the movies and amusement parks.

The U.S. extradition request, resubmitted in September after a change in the treaty between the U.S. and Israel, was delayed after one of the five complainants withdrew from the case.

The U.S. Justice Department is expected to file an amended request this week.

Mondrowitz was arrested early Friday morning at his Jerusalem home and arraigned the same day.

Judge Shimon Feinberg, vice president of the Jerusalem Magistrates' Court, found that Mondrowitz was a possible candidate for extradition and rejected defense arguments that the statute of limitations applied to the offenses, even though they were allegedly committed more than 20 years ago.

Feinberg granted a prosecution request to extend Mondrowitz's imprisonment until Nov. 27 after the prosecution told the court that an Israeli police raid on Mondrowitz's home in May had netted four pedophile movies.

Mondrowitz is due to appear in court again Nov. 27, when Feinberg will decide whether to extend his jailing until the end of the extradition proceedings, which could take several months.

Mondrowitz's wife, Raizel, declared his innocence.

"People can come up 25 years later and say all kinds of things about anybody. No one's had any complaints about him for the last 25 years. This is all old stuff," she said.

********************************

Rabbi Yosef Blau Comments!


The debate about whether the Haredi or modern Orthodox leadership has been more negligent in dealing with sexual abuse and which abuser is worse is at best a side show. Thr Mondrowitz case has raised serious questions about how the Orthodox rabbinate responded to the many accusations that emerged twenty plus years ago in Brooklyn.

Since almost no one has denied his guilt, minimally a public statement should be made expressing sympathy for his apparently many victims (my sources say that he sexually abused essentially all the boys that were sent to him)and support for his being extradited. It is also neccesary that there be a thorough investigation of the reports that various rabbis discouraged Jewish children from cooperating with the police and were complicit in his fleeing to Israel after being indicted. If these allegations are false then no one should be afraid of the facts being uncovered.

Steve....Kicks Shafran Where It Should Hurt If He Had Any.....

That is part of why the Torah-observant population is greatly underrepresented in the realms of societal ills like rape, AIDS, prostitution and marital infidelity that affect their less repressed neighbors.

WOW!! Don't we all feel so much better now!! Thank you Avi! UOJ, there is no need for this blog anymore. Tell Elliot Pasik that there is no need for all the fuss about background checks, fingerprinting, registry and mandatory reporting. After all, we are "underrepresented" when it comes to such things as child molestation! Tell all the victims of clergy sexual abuse that they really don't matter, you are "underrepresented".

How this moron continues to write such gibberish and gets away with it is beyond me. It's been a year and a half since that article he's referring to, and forty years since Kolko started his molestation career. Do we have anything in place from the Agudah or Torah Umesorah that will give our children one iota of protection? Why is it that public school children have this protection and our children have nothing? Will Avi L. Shafran or the Agudah ever address these questions head on, or will we continue to hear how wonderful the Orthodox world is, and that we are "underrepresented"? It's like the false prophets before the first Temple destruction, telling the people how wonderful they are.

Until there is a tremendous outcry from the community and a demand for change, we will continue hearing from these false prophets. If you care about your children and grandchildren, start putting pressure on the Agudah, Torah Umesorah and your local politicians. Mandatory background checks, fingerprinting, sex offender registry and mandatory reporting MUST BE ENACTED IN THE YESHIVA SYSTEM AT ONCE!!! I am sorry to say that we are underrepresented when it comes to people crying out for the children. Avi, you are wrong, we have more than our fill of perverts!!




Opinion - In child pornography, fight harder By Ernie Allen

Mon Nov 26, 3:00 AM ET

Alexandria, Va. - Millions of children around the world are being sexually abused and molested. Billions of dollars are changing hands as part of a growing crime wave of child pornography. This is anything but a victimless crime. Children – some as young as infants – are being barbarically assaulted for the sexual gratification of their abusers and those who view their photos.

While inroads have been made in the fight against child pornography, the problem remains severe. We have much more to do.

The Internet has become a child pornography superhighway, turning children into a commodity for sale or trade. Analysts at the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) have reviewed 9.6 million images and videos of child pornography on the Internet just since 2002. There are millions more such images in cyberspace that we have yet to find.

Law enforcement agencies are cracking down on this crime wave. In November, the chief operating officer of the National Children's Museum in Washington was arrested and charged with distributing child pornography over the Internet. Also this month, police across Europe announced they had arrested nearly 100 people linked to a network that allegedly produced and sold child pornography videos to 2,500 customers worldwide.

In 1998 Congress asked NCMEC to create a "9-1-1 for the Internet." We established CyberTipline (www.cybertipline.com), which has received more than 500,000 reports from the public and Internet service providers regarding child sexual exploitation. More than 460,000 of those reports involved child pornography.

What is child pornography? It goes far beyond nude pictures of children. It is the visual depiction – whether in still photos or video – of children being sexually assaulted. In some instances, rapes of children have been shown live over the Internet to paying customers. In 1982, the US Supreme Court held that child pornography is not protected speech but child abuse.

Some suggest that many people who view child pornography just "look at the pictures." But our work on these cases has led us to conclude that for most of those who view these images, sex with children becomes a compulsion and evolves into physical acts with real children.

When NCMEC analysts scour the Internet for child pornography, they determine whether website content is illegal, use search tools and techniques to identify and track down the distributors of child pornography, and then provide the information to the appropriate local, state, federal, or international law enforcement agency.

Law enforcement agencies and NCMEC have managed to identify almost 1,200 of the many children who appear in child pornography. We have found that 35 percent of the photos were taken by a parent, 15 percent by another family member, and 20 percent by someone close to the child or the family. We have provided more than 12,000 evidence reports to prosecutors and law enforcement officers to assist in prosecutions of those accused of these crimes.

Sadly, NCMEC has found that the children being used in these images are getting younger and younger, and the images are becoming more graphic and more violent. Of the children in pornographic photos and videos who have been identified, 58 percent had not yet reached puberty.

To stop the use of credit cards that fuel the child pornography industry, NCMEC created the Financial Coalition Against Child Pornography. Today this coalition includes 90 percent of the US payments industry, with growing international involvement. The 30 companies in the coalition include MasterCard, Visa, American Express, Bank of America, Citigroup, Microsoft, America Online, Yahoo, Google, and many others.

Thanks to the participating companies and extraordinary leadership from federal, state, and local law enforcement, we have virtually eliminated the use of credit cards in child pornography transactions. Although credit card logos still appear on some sites, now when consumers attempt to use credit cards, they either become victims of identity theft or are redirected to another method of payment.

In too many places around the world, the possession of child pornography is handled as a relatively minor offense. In fact, in 136 countries it is not even a crime.

Children depend on adults to keep them safe. We need to do more to protect them from dangerous, cold-hearted predators who want to harm them for pleasure and profit. We need to recognize child pornography as a crime against humanity that must be attacked more forcefully and that deserves harsh punishment.

Ernie Allen is president and CEO of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, a nonprofit charitable organization based in Alexandria, Va.

Please make the phone calls regarding Moshe Eisemann. The only way to make change is if everyone participates and puts pressure on Ner Israel, Rabbi Yaakov Hopfer and Artscroll to do the right thing.

It's important to be aware that Phil Jacobs and the Baltimore Jewish Times were limited in what information they made public when they published the story on Moshe Eisemann. Several of the survivors did not want to be interviewed for fear of retaliation. It's vitally important for each survivor to have choice, because while they were being abused choice was taken away from them. The problem is that when survivors choose not to be public it makes it difficult to make changes in hopes of protecting any more innocent children and adults from becoming the next victim of a sex crime.

The other dilemma faced by the Baltimore Jewish Times was that some of the information they were privy to was confidential and could not be published.

Many people have asked why we are asking that Eisemann's writings should be banned. One response is that many years ago Rabbi Moshe Feinstein made a decree that the songs written by Shlomo Carlebach after he went off the derech (path), should no longer be song, yet his older songs were ok. The same decree should apply to the writings of Moshe Eisemann.

Israel's request for "clarification" from the US Justice Dept on clarifying the Extradtion Terms will take years and means that Gur has won and that Mondro will not be extradited to the U.S. but remain in Israel.

Organize a massive picket at this weeks Agudah Convention and call the NY Times, NY Post, NY Daily News, NY Magazine to cover it.

The corrupt israeli Govt, "Rabbis" and the macher Askonim that aid and abet Gur certainly will not help you.

I don't know why the EPA has to interfere with everything.

Who cares if ammonia is hazardous when absorbed by meat which then turns rancid?

23 Where a lairage has pens with high, solid sides, combined with a low roof and poor ventilation, ammonia can build up. In lairages like this, you should consider providing additional ventilation because the build-up of ammonia will harm both animals and staff who will experience physical distress such as breathing difficulties.

Anonymous said...

Ammonia is also present in the liquid manure from Rubashkin's animals. Without proper safeguards such an ammonia buildup poisons drinking water and aquifiers at the ground level as well as creating acid rain after chemically changing to nitric toxins.

The EPA is probably pursuing Rubashkin in this area since they already have a history of recklessly polluting the surrounding area.

Any hazard to workers, livestock and meat products at the plant would probably be pursued by other agencies.

At the downtown Jerusalem court building, Mondrowitz - small, slightly stooped and dressed in a black suit - was led into the hearing room with hands and ankles shackled, while four burly guards in khaki uniforms stood watched at the door.

The judge extended Mondrowitz's detention until November 27, at which point he will decide whether Mondrowitz will remain in jail or be placed under house arrest.

Mondrowitz's attorney, David Ofek, said he plans to appeal the decision to keep Mondrowitz in custody.

"The state didn't take action for 25 years, so they cannot bring the case back (now)," Ofek said, adding that he has seen no medical reports indicating abuse.

Two months ago the United States resubmitted an extradition request first made in 1985, months after Mondrowitz fled Brooklyn for Israel, said the spokesman for the Israeli Justice Ministry, Moshe Cohen.

The renewed US request came after Israel and the United States amended their extradition treaty to include all crimes whose punishment is more than one year imprisonment, according to the Israeli state prosecutor's office. Before the change that took effect in January, the extradition treaty between Israel and the United States did not include sodomy.

Sunday's ruling followed an expose on Mondrowitz in Haaretz's weekend magazine, which first appeared Thursday, a day before the arrest. The paper reported that the statute of limitations does not apply to crimes in which the suspect has fled to avoid charges.

Shackles & leg irons? I know where UOJ is headed with this. He wants to humiliate all of us by putting us in a chain gang. That wouldn't even be so bad but the fatsos like Margo & Tropper will really slow us down.

I'm sure Uncle Milty will intervene with the Bureau of Prisons as this is cruel & unusual punishment.

I happen to have intimate knowledge of another fugitive who was sought in Israel for extradition.

I am not familiar with all the details of the new treaty but I hope it closes a loophole that Ger & the Agudah could exercise that has been sucessful previously.

Obviously, I am not going to mention what it is to make things easier for the bad guys.

I work at an interdenominational Sunday Hebrew school. People (parents, co-workers and students) are starting to ask me about the Mondrowitz, Kolko, etc. cases, that are now cropping up in the mainstream media.

The religious establishment's prior attempts, to sweep these cases under the rug, will now cause an infinitely greater series of Chillul Hashem. If only quick action would have beentaken 15 or 20 (or 30) years ago. Our schools would have fulfilled the injunction of "Uviarta hara mikirbecha". Scum like these people would not even have had to go behind bars, they would have been merely precluded from anything dealing with kids,

The reputation of several Yeshivot, religious organizations, etc. would have remained positive, and children's lives and futures saved. By hiding behind a smokescreen, they've hurt us all, including themselves!!

Ok, I have a theory why Tropper wants to be magayer everyone. He loves gourmet food and has had his eyes on Wolfgang Puck's menu for quite some time. You can see on the sidebar of this website that Puck's Jewish partner Barbara Lazaroff was his first wife, although there is no longer any mention on the corporate bio that they were married and have two children together.

Puck's latest wife is Ethiopian, but has a Hebrew sounding name, Gelila Aseffa.

Tropper could enjoy the ultimate in Fressing if he is megayer Wolfgang.

I ask everyone to take the time to e-mail Israel's justice department. The Israeli government needs to be made aware of how seroius we are in bringing this monster to justice. The e-mail address is :YaelK@justice.gov.il

I have sent the following e-mail to them:

Subject: Avrohom Mondrowitz' Extradition
To: YaelK@justice.gov.il

I am writing today to ask that the Israeli government comply with the U.S, Department of Justice request to have Avrohom Mondrowitz extradited to face charges of rape and sodomy. I am asking that this request be fulfilled at once and that justice should not be delayed any further. The scores of Mondrowitz victims have been waiting unjustly for 23 years now and it would be highly unethical for your government to delay this matter. Please note, the American public and the Jewish community will not rest or stand still if justice is delayed any further in this case. I hope that you see the urgency of this matter and work diligently to expedite the extradition.

The Starter brand and its inventory were purchased from bankruptcy court for $46 million last July by a consortium that included (Fartscroll supporters) Schottenstein Stores (which owns the Value City Midwestern retail chain), Parthenon Capital and Sol Werdiger of Outer Stuff.

Beginning with the '01 Nascar season, the Starter brand will appear on a car in 23 races of the stock car circuit's Busch series. Aside from the Nascar team affiliation, the marketing support is designed to give the appearance that Starter is still an authentic brand, without having to pay the heavy fees that the leagues impose for on-field rights.

But could Starter again carry the marks of the four big leagues? The new ownership was resoundingly rejected in an initial attempt to reobtain licenses. Since the MLB, NFL, NBA and NHL are still struggling to prop up sales in the upstairs market, the thought of adding competition at lower price points didn't thrill them (that Starter listed the leagues as some of its largest unsecured creditors when it went belly-up didn't help, either). Starter has received a bevy of collegiate rights from a deal with the Collegiate Licensing Co., which represents many top-selling colleges in the U.S. That program will be marketed regionally, with retailers hooking up with collegiate paint schemes on cars in various Busch Series races.

I, the highest risk level.

In both March and September of 2006, the USDA sent the AgriProcessors
plant manager a "Letter of Warning" reviewing a series of problems. At
the end of the three-page September letter, the inspector wrote that the
slaughterhouse's efforts to correct the problems had been "ineffective."
The letter concluded that "these findings lead us to question your
ability to maintain sanitary conditions, and to produce a safe and
wholesome product."

AgriProcessors is the largest producer of kosher beef, and markets its
product under the Aaron's Best and Supreme Kosher labels, among others.

A spokesman for AgriProcessors did not return calls seeking comment.

Felicia Nestor, a Food & Water Watch expert on the meat and poultry
industry, who reviewed the USDA documents at the request of the Forward
said that the issues at the AgriProcessors plant are "systemic
problems."

"It seems like there are just problems throughout this," said Nestor,
who is a senior policy analyst at Food & Water Watch, a consumer
advocacy group. "We're talking about problems in beef, chicken, lamb and
turkey."

There were at least 18 records in which AgriProcessors was cited for
fecal matter appearing on the animals being prepared. During December -
after the plant had received its letter of warning - AgriProcessors
received six warnings for fecal matter within 10 days. On December 26,
the inspector wrote that during multiple checks of 10 chickens, "fecal
contamination varied between 70 and 80%." Other problems, including bile
contamination, were noted at the time. After a number of warnings, the
inspector wrote that "further planned actions have either not been
implemented or have not been effective."

There were also at least five instances in which AgriProcessors was
cited for not taking the required measures to fend off mad cow disease.

This is not the first time that AgriProcessors has landed in trouble
because of documents released by the USDA in response to a request from
the FOIA. In 2006, PETA secured the release of documents in which USDA
officials censured AgriProcessors for the inhumane treatment of its
animals.



In case they try to dent that Rubashkin is their supplier, then attach this article:

Gobble it up

The turkey rating that I wrote about has created a lot of passion. People have written and even stopped me on the street to ask where they can find the Aaron's Best Rubashkin's turkeys that were praised by the testers at Cook's Illustrated.

Well, good news. I heard from Mark Halbe, national sales manager for Agriprocessors, the producers of the sought-after bird. He said, "Trader Joe's will carry a Fresh Trader Joe's turkey, which is packed at our plant. It's the same turkey rated in the Cook's article. If you turn it over, you'll see 'Packed by Rubashkins' on the back."

Happy gobbling!

85th Annual American Aguda Dinner in New York

By G. Lazer

Over 1,300 people took part in the annual Agudas Yisroel of America Dinner at the Hilton Hotel in New York.

The participants were welcomed by R' Shlomo Werdiger, who asked them to become ambassadors for Agudas Yisroel and "spread the word," saying, "Not a day passes without Agudas Yisroel of America being called upon to provide advice, assistance and advocacy for individuals, groups and institutions," he said. "The [main] offices of Agudas Yisroel at 42 Broadway continue to be the central address for the resolution of any and all issues facing our people." He also showed an audio-visual presentation highlighting the organization's many accomplishments during the past year.

The keynote speaker, US Ambassador to the UN Zalmay Khalilzad, was introduced by Rabbi Chaim Dovid Zwiebel, Agudas Yisroel's executive vice president for government and public affairs. Khalilzad discussed Aguda's appreciation for the efforts made by the Bush administration following September 11th "to wage war against the forces of terror and evil that seek nothing less than total world dominion." He noted that US Jewry in particular owes an obligation of hakoras hatov to President Bush. "Without question he is one of the greatest friends Israel and the Jewish community have ever had in the White House."

The Admor of Novominsk, who serves as Rosh of Agudas Yisroel of America, said, "Agudas Yisroel is a vital, indispensable reality for the Torah community."

The dinner was used as an opportunity to pay tribute to several individuals and their efforts on behalf of Klal Yisroel. Executive Vice President Rabbi Shmuel Bloom presented the Rabbi Moshe Sherer Memorial Award to Rabbi Abish Brodt for his ongoing dedication to Klal Yisroel; the HaGaon Rav Aharon Kotler Memorial Award went to Moshe Gold for distinguished service for Torah; the Reb Elimelech Tress Award went to Avrohom Roth for preserving the legacy of Shearis HaPleitoh; and the Morenu Yaakov Rosenheim Memorial Award went to Dr. Martin Katzenstein for his distinguished service for Agudas Yisroel.

80th Annual Agudah Convention

The opening session began with a recital of Tehillim en masse, after which this year's convention chairman, Rabbi Shlomo Werdiger, proclaimed the convention's official opening. Noting that Agudath Israel of America had reached "gevuros" (80 years), he said the organization must continue the holy task it was charged with by its founders with greater might.

Other speakers were HaRav Shmuel Kamenetsky, rosh yeshiva of Philadelphia Yeshiva; HaRav Ephraim Wachsman, rosh yeshiva of Meor Yitzchok Yeshiva in Monsey; HaRav Uren Reich, rosh yeshiva of Perth Amboy Yeshiva. This session was chaired by Rabbi Shlomo Gertzulin, Agudath Israel's executive vice president for finance and administration. The Melave Malka concluded with a midnight session featuring Rabbi Paysach Krohn, "noted" lecturer and author of the bogus Maggid series and enabler of child rapist Ephraim Bryks.

One of the "machers <<< give me kovod" is the father of a molester and alleged gay rapist.

The macher spent big bucks to keep his son in a corrupt yeshiva. After each incident that his bisexual son put his hand on another bochur's privates or was caught messing with a shiksa, the father had to pony up another 10, 15 or 20 grand for the "rosh yeshiva" to line his pockets with.

The attempted rape cost something like 25 to 40 grand depending on who you ask.

Someone broke into the office and read the files late at night.

The troublemaker did all this during high school. I don't know what became of him so let me try Googling him.

A search of Mondrowitz's apartment last May turned up four pornographic movies featuring children. On the basis of these findings, Jerusalem Magistrate's Court Judge Shimon Feinberg ruled yesterday that "there is a reasonable basis to suspect that he is still an active or potential pedophile." He said the fact that Mondrowitz was not charged with sexual abuse in Israel does not mean that he is not dangerous - particularly in light of the closed nature of the ultra-Orthodox society in which he lives, where sexual offenses are usually dealt with without police involvement,

Mondrowitz's attorney, David Ofek, said he plans to appeal the decision to keep Mondrowitz in custody.

The state didn't take action for 25 years, so they cannot bring the case back now, Ofek said

http://www.pokerlistings.com/marking-cards-at-mohegan-sun-20358


A poker player was arrested at the Mohegan Sun Casino on Thursday and is accused of marking cards, according to a story in the Hartford Courant.



Investigators allegedly discovered he was cheating and then raided his hotel room in the casino finding $55,000.

Sholem J. Weisner, 26, of Brooklyn, is being charged with cheating, first degree larceny and criminal trespass. He is out on a $5,000 bail and scheduled to appear in Superior Court in Norwich on Dec. 6.

State police allege that Weisner was physically marking specific cards in a game of No-Limit Hold'em to determine their location and thus give himself an advantage.

Weisner had a history of cheating and was actually banned from the Mohegan Sun back in September 2006 but was playing using a friends Players Club card and social security on Thursday to avoid being identified.

The timing of the arrest is interesting as just last week at the final table of the World Poker Finals in Nearby Foxwood's Casino there were two separate occasions where the deck had to be changed because of an unknown player marking the aces. It was never confirmed that a player actually did the marking and it's possible that tournament organizers gave the dealer a used deck.

Marking cards is a method of cheating that has been around since almost the beginning of poker. With the proliferation of cameras in cardrooms it has been seen less and less but there seems to be a sudden increase in this old backroom poker trick.

(Photo: California Sex Offenders Registry)

Anonymous said...

I may be Tropper's biggest financial supporter in Monsey. I'm also an officer at the Carlebach shul, Tropper of course being Shlomo Carlebach's first cousin.

http://www.lukeford.net/profiles/profiles/michael_ozair.htm

In 2002, Rabbi Ozair pled no contest to one count of oral copulation in 1997 with a minor (a 14 year old girl who was not his student).

Contrary to some reports, at the time of the crime, Michael Ozair was not a rabbi.

Luke: "When did you receive semicha (ordination as a rabbi)?"

R. Ozair: "Fall of 1998."

Luke: "Tell me more."

R. Ozair: "I was involved with a small congregation in LA [Happy Minyan] and speaking every Shabbos and holidays and teaching. Rabbi Abner Weiss [head rabbi of Beth Jacob at the time] was my mentor rabbi. He suggested I get ordination. At first, it was going to be done in Israel, but it was going to be too expensive to live there. The next option was Monsey, New York. I went for an interview to [Kol Yaacov Torah Center] and was accepted. I was told it would be a year to a year-and-a-half for the basic semicha, taking into account my past years of Torah learning."

Rabbi Ozair was twice voted teacher of the year at Shalhevet High School before he was fired in the summer of 2000 (before the sex scandal broke) for allowing some senior students on a field trip to Mexico to buy a couple of beers on July 4th.

Here are the names of people who I am told can vouch for Ozair's attendance at Kol Yaakov: Rabbi Pinchos Dovid Orenstein, rabbi Sam Intrator (formerly of the Carlebach Shul, he recieved his semicha from the same Yeshivah/rabbi right before Michael did, since R. Leib Tropper is a cousin of Shlomo Carlebach), Nachman Futterman (resident of Monsey, big supporter of the Yeshiva) Dovid Moshe of Pompano Beach, FL.

While Ozair lived in Monsey, he was the co-administrator of the Reb Shlomo Carlebach List (Shamash).

Michael Ozair wrote Dec 5, 1997 on the List:

So glad to have finally joined the chevre on the Net. Let's spend less time as baalei machloket and more time in connecting to what we have in common, that is, celebrating the legacy of who our great rebbe was, is and ever shall be.

As a fairly new resident in Monsey, NY (and one of the founders of the Happy Minyan in Los Angeles), I want to share two interesting incidents that happened this morning. First, my Rosh Yeshivah, Reb Leib Tropper called all the yeshivah students in for some pretty heavy duty mussar after having heard that somebody had made a derogatory remark about Reb Shlomo Carlebach. The Rosh Yeshivah was FURIOUS and gave a very firm warning to the entire yeshivah, threatening expulsion. He stated clearly that there was a cherem against those who make any kind of derogatory remarks about one who has passed away. Although, not all the rabbis of this yeshivah think very highly of Shlomo, the Rosh Yeshivahs eyes instantly fill with tears at the mention of Shlomo's name. I should also note that every Friday night, the entire davening is Shlomo's nusach and is one of the most simchadik minyanim for Monsey standards. Also, I went to Tuvia's bookstore, the largest Jewish bookstore up here, to purchase a few seforim, when lo' and behold, right up there, hanging on the wall, along side all the big rebbes and Torah giants, was not one, but three pictures of our Rebbe Shlomo Carlebach, zt"l. I should also note, Shlomo was the only one smiling.

DETROIT (Reuters) - Three top investors in the automotive industry painted a grim picture on Sunday for the sector in 2008, with one executive predicting a possible slump in U.S. sales to levels not seen in 15 years.

The weakest forecast is for a possible 9.4 percent decline. But all three -- Jerry York, an adviser to billionaire investor Kirk Kerkorian; financier Wilbur Ross; and Thomas Stallkamp, a former Chrysler president -- were more pessimistic than many in the battered industry.

"While I am very negative on the autos sector over the next 12 to 18 months, I'm just not sure how bad it could be," York, a former board member of General Motors Corp and chief financial officer of Chrysler, said at the Reuters Autos Summit in Detroit. "We all know housing is a debacle."

Karben forced out amid sex probe

http://www.thejournalnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060520/NEWS03/605200324/1019/NEWS03

Assemblyman Ryan Karben was told several days ago that he would be subjected to an ethics probe and was given the chance to resign, according to multiple Democratic officials.

"In the last seven to 10 days, (Karben) was hauled in and told: Either resign or we start the process," one official said yesterday.

A top upstate elected Democrat yesterday confirmed that version of events.

Karben, D-Monsey, resigned abruptly Thursday morning, saying he wanted to devote more time to his family and law practice. But several Democratic sources said officials had been looking into allegations that Karben, 31, may have made unwanted sexual advances toward a male intern.

"I think he's a wonderful man," Rabbi Leib Tropper said.

He also likes to say that his was ben-bayit in rav Moshe’s house because he grew up in the lower east side, and again rav Moshe would have nothing to do with him.

The talmidim, rabbonim, and magidei shiur in that “yeshiva” are weirdoes and evil. They call other Jews such as MO, conservative, reform “shkotzim” , they say people who support the state of Israel are idolatry worshippers.

They also like to say that Jewish kids who are born with disabilities have a goyish neshama.

Some of the students are obviously mentally unstable and should not be roaming the town they should be under state protective custody.

Tropper hates Rav Noach Weinberg with a vengeance and called him impostor , he hates MO/RCA but they kiss his ass.

He also hates Rabbi Bomzer and said he is going to nullified all Bomzer conversions.

Susan Blond, a press agent for rock stars and rap artists whose very job is to place items in gossip columns (and who had more than 15 minutes of fame herself as a pal of Andy Warhol).

On her desk in the West 57th Street building is a small white sign that looks like a no-smoking request, but on closer inspection turns out to say, ''Thank you for not speaking loshon hora,'' which is Hebrew for ''evil words'' or ''forbidden speech.''

The sign was a gift from Ms. Blond's brother-in-law, Rabbi Leib Tropper

Ms. Blond is his press agent. She also represents a plastic surgeon, a fashion designer, the singer Luther Vandross, the heads of Arista and Ruffhouse Records, the Artist (formerly known as the Artist Formerly Known as Prince), and Robin Byrd, host of a television talk show on the pornography industry.

Ms. Blond has become more of an advocate for rules against gossip as she has become more committed to Orthodox Judaism in recent months, following the breakup of her marriage to someone of a different faith, she said.

Of course, she still speaks to the columnists, and not just about clients; the rabbi's class was mentioned recently in Mitchell Fink's gossip column in The Daily News.

Kol Ya’akov’s alumni, which today number in the thousands and occupy positions of leadership around the world, are wont to reminisce about the yeshiva’s early years when a smaller structure than the one used today was bursting at the seams and the Rosh Yeshiva was finally forced to turn applicants away. “I’m willing to sleep under the Rosh Yeshiva’s desk”, one boy pleaded, only to learn that the spot was already occupied. While the demand for admission to Kol Ya’akov remains high, and expanding the physical plant tops the Yeshiva’s priority list, today’s new students can generally count on a sleeping in a bed.

Named after HaRav Ya’akov Kamenetsky, zt”l the co-leader of American Orthodoxy (with HaRav Moshe Feinstein, zt”l) for the better part of the 20th century, the Yeshiva was founded and is run to this day by Rosh Yeshiva Leib Tropper. He is a follower of and close advisor to HaRav Feinstein’s illustrious son, HaRav Reuven Feinstein, shlita. Notwithstanding the awe-inspiring names and titles, anyone trying to conjure an image of our Rosh Yeshiva would be ill-advised to turn to Hollywood stereotypes. Forget the even-keeled Spencer Tracy of Boy’s Town. Ditch the placid Dalai Lama. This religious leader won’t be found in central casting. The Rosh Yeshiva’s roots are firmly planted in the Yiddishkeit of Manhattan’s Lower East Side, and like the cheders, shteibels and Talmud tractates on which he was weaned, he is nothing if not complex. He will be the first to tell you that he is “driven” and that he needs to be “better organized”, and his closest associates like Executive Director, Rabbi Moshe Raice will wearily nod in agreement while making the point that the Rosh Yeshiva is a Torah genius and kiruv miracle worker. Indeed the rabbayim who keep the yeshiva running like a swiss watch, who field the Rosh Yeshiva’s anxious, late night phone calls, and who have helped him perfect Kol Ya’akov’s trademark system of personalized Torah pedagogy, seem to have been selected as much for their forbearance as for their Torah knowledge. Be that as it may, anyone compiling a list of America’s Most Influential Leaders had better take a good look at this real life Pied Piper. The Rosh Yeshiva’s administrative foibles only underscore the immensity of his talent, the current class of Kol Ya’akov students may be the greatest he has educated to date, and his powerful message is coming at a moment in history when European culture is in retreat and millions of Americans – not just Jews - are returning to their biblical moorings.

When orienting new students to the yeshiva environment, the Rosh Yeshiva often recalls the day that he asked HaRav Kamenetsky about the advisability of establishing a “baal tshuvah yeshiva” - a completely new kind of yeshiva specially designed for young men returning to normative Jewish life. The Gadol replied that he didn’t advise going forward with that project, however the idea of creating a traditional Orthodox yeshiva that happened to cater to returnees was certainly a sound one. Today, Kol Ya’akov’s graduates occupy positions of Torah and business leadership around the world. Its alumni include the founder and chairman of IDT Corporation, Howard Jonas, and such rabbis, communal leaders and authors as James Lavin, Mathew Gensler, Michael Kellmar Dr. Mordechai Stempler, Dr. Tuvia Meister and Rabbi Yaakov Borros.

Just like with Rubashkin, Lubinsky doesn't disclose this when giving Tropper the lead "story" in his Kosher Today newsletter.

http://www.kosherfest.com/news/archives/newsletter_2005/09_26_05.htm

Converts in Intermarriages Move Families to Kosher
(Newark, NJ) A growing number of non-Jewish spouses are converting to Judaism and choosing to keep kosher homes. This was the sentiment of many of the rabbis who participated in an unprecedented Conference on Universally Accepted Conversions in Intermarriage at the Newark Sheraton on September 18-19. Amongst the speakers at the conference was Israel’s Chief Rabbi Yonah Metzger, Rabbi Reuven Feinstein, a prominent Torah scholar, Rabbi Leib Tropper, dean of Yeshiva Kol Yaakov in Monsey and Rabbi Herschel Schachter a dean at Yeshiva University. Nearly 130 rabbis, some from as far away as Israel and Europe, heard several speakers speak of the total commitment converting non-Jews make, including observing all the kosher laws. While it was difficult to get an exact number of such converts, one rabbi said he thought it was “in the hundreds.” The conference was so successful that nearly 600 rabbis applied for 40 scholarships that ultimately grew to over 100. The sponsors, the Lillian Jean Kaplan Jewish Pride Through Education, a project of Yeshiva Kol Yaakov/ Horizons in Monsey, NY are planning additional conferences in Miami, Los Angeles, and Boston.

(Notice how a whopping 600 fresser rabbis applied for 40 spots which Tom Kaplan then upped to 100)

Israel’s Chief Rabbi Seeks Universal Kosher Standards Worldwide
(Newark, NJ) Israel’s Chief Ashkenazi Rabbi Yona Metzger is determined to tighten up standards amongst kashrus agencies worldwide, a spokesman for the Chief Rabbi told Kosher Today. The Chief Rabbi was here for a conference on Universally Accepted Conversions in an Intermarriage, sponsored by the Eternal Jewish Living program of Monsey, NY. While here, the chief rabbi met with officials of the Orthodox Union (OU) Kosher supervision department to learn how the OU carries out its kosher supervision. He toured the Empire Poultry slaughterhouse in Mifflintown, PA to view the slaughtering according to Jewish law. "We agreed to strengthen our ties by offering the Chief Rabbinate access to our database of kosher certified products," said OU official Rabbi Moshe Elefant. The OU certifies 400,000 products in 83 countries.

(Why doesn't Rabbi Metzger worry first about the pathetic state of Rabbanut kashrus standards?)

Lulav, New Kosher Restaurant Opens in Little Rock
(Little Rock) Former President Bill Clinton would no doubt take heart with the news that Lulav, a new kosher restaurant has opened here. He could certainly entertain some of his Orthodox friends here. Its August opening came months later than originally planned, thanks to problems meeting code, etc.

(According to my sources, this restaurant is nothing more than kosher-style. But why should that stop Lubinsky shilling for them if there's a buck to be made?)

The nation’s housing market is in a deep recession, and further declines in new construction, sales and prices are imminent. By the end of next year, falling home values, combined with rising payments on adjustable mortgages, tighter lending conditions and, in all probability, a faltering job market, will have unleashed mass foreclosures — estimated at several hundred thousand to two million — unless something is done to help keep Americans in their homes.

Oilem-Goilem !!! Hard to believe that weird boor and am-haaretz like Tropper became so important. I remember him hanging in Tuvia and striking conversations with young men. It is the access to money which made him so influential.

What many people do not realize that he pays airfare and accommodation to those rabbis to come from all over the world and participate in his conferences (in fancy hotels and resorts). If you say you wife is involved in keiruv she gets a ticket as well.

The icing on the cake is that many rabbis who participates in his conferences get also substantial grants (20,000-200,000) from EJF for supposedly keiruv/conversion efforts in their community.

If you participated in the conferences and you did not receive a grant call the shamas David Jacobs and tell him I sent you.

The way to stop him is to stop the flow of money from Kaplan to Tropper. We need to inform Kaplan of what Tropper is doing with his money.

There is conract information for Kapaln in Leor Energy web site :

Hell is only as deep and big as to accomodate Avrohom Mondrowits, Colmer Kolko Leizerowitz and all those rabbis who had a hand in covering up for ANY one of them. As for your concern regarding recent accusations of behind the scenes efforts to derail g-d forbid the extraditions here are some answers.

1. UOJ, who has a sterling reputation has stated it as fact and combined with the CHAZAKKA that has been established for 50 plus years it is at the very least an issue of Limeichish M'boyeah.

2. Do u want the exact hour and minute of the early Friday morning phone calls placed to significant askonim to attempt to spring the devil from jail?

3. Few direct charges have been made stating that rabbonim and askonim are actively participating in the obstruction of justice. The intent of the lobbying effort is to PREVENT Chalila any efforts on behalf of the indicted rapist and molester.

4. My dearest Werdyger family member: Look me in the eye and say for all to hear that OHEL and the rabbis implicitly implicated in the original cover-up are not working right now to quell the oncoming storm and the PR nightmare that will come with a torrent of lawsuits perhaps. Say it. Right here!

Another sad/frustrating aspect of this is that the "gedolim" (ahem) who lead the Chasidim could at least make a pronouncement against the social ostracism of the victims and their families. While people are sometimes slow to change, at least the victims and families would have a "ruling" that coming forward was okay.

Apparently, the "rabbinic leaders" have not even taken this step. Which is doubly sad and frustrating when one considers how they have little problem issuing rulings with and proclamations, with speed and in abundance, regarding cell phones, concerts, and denim clothing. But with something like this, that deals with a REAL threat to their community (and everyone else's), they can't quite find the ability to do the same.

NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - Call it "Meshuggah Full of Grace."

A spate of 1990s-era crimes where Hasidic Jews were recruited as mules to smuggle drugs into the U.S. has inspired an indie comic drama that is slated to begin next spring in New York.

"Holy Rollers" follows an impressionable youth (Jesse Eisenberg) from an Orthodox Brooklyn community. He's lured into becoming an Ecstasy dealer by a friend (Justin Bartha) with ties to an Israeli drug cartel. Newcomer Danny Abeckaser is set to play the owner of a club where they do their decidedly unkosher business.

One thing I found odd with Tropper is that he went around for a couple of years touting his haskoma from R'Reuven Feinstein and it was only recently that he added R' Dovid to the mix.

Tropper is also pulling out of his hat now backing from R' Chaim Ozer Grodzinski.

Avi Shafran , THE JERUSALEM POST Nov. 7, 2007

The topic of the e-mails is of no matter. The writers were urging Agudath Israel of America to take a certain stance on a political issue. It was their tone that stood out. The correspondents had taken for granted that their own judgment on the matter was right, and were writing to insist that the organization come on board, or "get with it," as one put it. Or as another wrote: "Your Moetzet Gedolei HaTorah [Council of Torah Sages - Agudath Israel's highest rabbinical body] needs to take a strong stand here..."

Agudath Israel is unique among Jewish groups. Its administration does not set policy; that role resides among the venerable rabbinic elders at our helm. The organization's officers and executive staff are sometimes asked to provide the Council members with information, even to lay out various approaches to an issue. But we do not tell our religious leaders what we think they should think. One might say that we report, they decide.

It is an approach that rankles some, especially those who might not appreciate the humor in a sign I have that reads: "People who think they know everything are particularly aggravating to those of us who do."

But the fact remains: Judaism teaches humility, and special respect for the judgment of those most experienced and knowledgeable. The letters of the Hebrew word for "elderly" - zaken - are parsed by the Talmud to yield the phrase "this one has acquired wisdom." And so, particularly in matters of Jewish communal welfare, we believe that Jews are exhorted to heed the direction provided by the community's most Torah-learned elders, those who have internalized a large degree of the perfection of values and refinement of character that the Torah idealizes. Even when those elders' judgment differs from our own. Actually, especially then.

The debate about whether the Haredi or modern Orthodox leadership has been more negligent in dealing with sexual abuse and which abuser is worse is at best a side show. Thr Mondrowitz case has raised serious questions about how the Orthodox rabbinate responded to the many accusations that emerged twenty plus years ago in Brooklyn.
Since almost no one has denied his guilt, minimally a public statement should be made expressing sympathy for his apparently many victims (my sources say that he sexually abused essentially all the boys that were sent to him)and support for his being extradited. It is also neccesary that there be a thorough investigation of the reports that various rabbis discouraged Jewish children from cooperating with the police and were complicit in his fleeing to Israel after being indicted. If these allegations are false then no one should be afraid of the facts being uncovered.

- He promotes the "Yeshiva" Har Hatorah in Little Neck, Queens, which is actually a co-ed school.

- He is apparently unaware that the "rabbi emeritus" of Young Israel of New Hyde Park was forced out because the shul thinks anything more than YU is too frum

Since when is Torah Or "prestigious" besides for BTs?

Sources within the battalion recently leaked the names of current or former Nahal Haredi soldiers who are the sons or grandsons of prominent haredi rabbis and MKs.

The grandson of Rabbi Pinchas Sheinberg, head of the Torah Or Yeshiva, one the most prestigious haredi yeshivas in Jerusalem, especially for Americans, was mentioned, as was the son of Telz Stone Chief Rabbi Aryeh Shulman. It happens that Shulman is also the son-in-law of Rabbi Zalman Sorotzkin, former head of the Council of Sages of Agudat Yisrael. The son of Shas MK Haim Amsalem was also leaked.

No major haredi rabbi has expressed open support for the Nahal Haredi, which is seen in the haredi community as a fringe phenomenon targeting yeshiva dropouts who are in danger of leaving the religious fold.

Meanwhile, last week Nahal Haredi officials inundated haredi neighborhoods with flyers modeled after pashkevilim, the black and white notices ubiquitous in these communities, that called on "young yeshiva students not currently enrolled in a Torah institute" who want to "earn a respectable salary" to call a toll free number.

-------------------

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The California attorney general and Los Angeles city attorney filed a lawsuit on Monday against 20 companies accusing them of manufacturing or selling toys with unlawfully high levels of lead

The lawsuit, which names U.S. toy companies including Mattel Inc, and retailers, including Toys "R" Us Inc and Wal-Mart Stores Inc, says the companies knowingly exposed children and their parents to lead and did not provide sufficient warning about its risks.

"Despite the lengthening global supply chain, every company that does business in this state must follow the law and protect consumers from lead and other toxic materials," California Attorney General Jerry Brown said in a statement.

The lawsuit follows a series of recalls this year that have led to millions of toys being taken off store shelves. Many of the recalled toys were made in China.

Gareth Lacy, a spokesman in Brown's office, said the attorney general hoped the companies would settle the lawsuit by agreeing to increased inspection, testing and lower lead levels.

The state can require companies to put warning labels on products that contain hazardous materials and or require companies to adopt more rigorous inspection procedures.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled millions of toys this year because they contained excessive amounts of lead. Other toys have been recalled because they contained other toxic substances and small parts that could be swallowed.

Mattel, the world's largest toy maker, makes about 80 percent of its toys in China. The company recalled some 21 million of its Chinese-made toys worldwide this year.

In October, one of its shareholders sued Mattel, accusing the company of failing to report serious defects in its toys.

Mattel said it was working with California's attorney general to improve toy safety.

"The use of paint with impermissible levels of lead by certain subcontractors was a clear violation of the company's quality and safety standards," Mattel said in a statement.

Lacy said the companies named in the suit could be fined up to $2,500 per day per "violation," that is every time a consumer or child is exposed to a contaminated toy, but it would be up to the court to decide what constitutes a "violation."

Gaydamak hopes to exploit ultra-Orthodox infighting on his way to Jerusalem city hall
By Yair Ettinger

At the entrance to Jerusalem, a huge billboard depicts Russian-born Israeli billionaire Arcadi Gaydamak standing with folded arms under a caption that shouts, "Jerusalem, you deserve better."

This is not yet an official election campaign. Municipal elections are still 11 months away, and for now, Gaydamak is merely dropping heavy hints in the shape of ads in the city's local newspapers, and conducting a "shopping spree," mainly in the ultra-Orthodox neighborhoods. After purchasing Bikur Holim Hospital, he appointed a new management this week representing all the ultra-Orthodox streams, and promised free medical service at the hospital for ultra-Orthodox yeshiva students.

Gaydamak visited the ultra-Orthodox Mir yeshiva with his tycoon Habadnik friend from London, Moshe Gertner, who left behind an NIS 8 million check. Gaydamak met yeshiva head Rabbi Nosson Tzvi Finkel, and announced that he had arranged a weekly hour's study with him. The check and statements yielded him joint photographs with Finkel, a member of Degel Hatorah's Council of Torah Sages, in the ultra-Orthodox press.

But while his money is paving his way to City Hall, a Dahaf Institute poll released by the Yediot Jerusalem weekly last Friday had Gaydamak lagging (14 percent) behind Mayor Uri Lupolianski (37 percent) and opposition leader Nir Barkat (31 percent). In a face off with Lupolianski, Gaydamak also loses: 54 percent to 25 percent.

However, Gaydamak knows something that Dahaf's Mina Zemach does not. In 2003, when the Lithuanian Degel Hatorah Party sent Lupolianski to the elections, it obtained Agudat Yisrael's support in an agreement obliging Degel to support Aguda's candidate in the next elections. Degel reneged on a similar agreement in Beitar Illit, creating a rift between the two factions. Now Degel Hatorah and Agudat Yisrael's MK Yaakov Litzman want revenge on Agudat Yisrael leader MK Meir Porush, and are determined not to let him win the mayoral elections in Jerusalem.

Gaydamak hopes to gain from these rifts in the ultra-Orthodox community. He also hears talk in ultra-Orthodox circles that after four years of ultra-Orthodox rule, a non-ultra-Orthodox mayor may be better.

"The ultra-Orthodox public is difficult to figure out, everything is done at the last moment according to the Torah sages' decision," says Degel Hatorah chairman MK Avraham Ravitz. "On the other hand, Gaydamak tells us at every meeting 'what problems do you have? I promise you it will be ok.' If we could be sure someone would preserve Jerusalem's character and provide the ultra-Orthodox with all their needs, we'd support him, no matter who he is."

It's early to tell whether Porush and his rivals are merely using Gaydamak to bash each other, or whether his candidacy is being considered seriously. Even David Silberschlag, Gaydamak's advisor who has been appointed head of Bikur Holim's management, says "people are ready to support whoever contributes to the Mir yeshiva. But there is no chance the ultra-Orthodox will elect him mayor."

Silberschlag says Gaydamak would only have a chance to win the ultra-Orthodox vote if the community is torn apart. This rupture is appearing now. In addition to making large contributions to ultra-Orthodox institutions, some of them discretely, Gaydamak has made three friends who may help him win. One is MK Ravitz: Gaydamak has financed a chain of ultra-Orthodox girls' hostels he set up. Another is Porush: Gaydamak is financing a children's school for him. The third is MK Litzman, who influenced Gaydamak to contribute $500,000 to the Gerer Hasidim hospital being built in Ashdod.

Litzman and Ravitz respect Gaydamak, mainly for two reasons other than his bank account - his closeness to the ultra-Orthodox, and his fondness for alienating the elites.

"I'm not measuring how religious he is, although I hear he puts tefillin on every morning," said Ravitz. "He is a non-religious man who has a warm and positive approach to the yeshiva world. That's rare in these parts."

Moreover, said Ravitz, "he's no fool. He knows how to settle scores. No way Porush will be Jerusalem mayor. There is no way Degel Hatorah will support him, and if Gaydamak goes with Porush, he will lose our vote."

I have represented a fair number of child molesters and kiddy diddlers. Should Mondrowitz be extradited and be tried I want to draw a visual picture of what it is like to pick a jury in such cases.

Of all crimes perhaps the crime that evokes the most hate, ire, and contempt are crimes relating to kiddy diddling, rape, molestation and the like.

Voir Dire is the part of the trial dealing with picking a jury. The jury enters the courtroom and they are seated. The judge greets the jurors and there is some preliminary discussion by the judge.

The judge at some point tells the jury what type of case they will hear. He may say: This is a case about sexual battery on a child less than 12 years of age."

Words evade me to describe the palpable pall the descends upon the courtroom. Faces become hard, smiles disappear, eyebrows knot together, pupils enlarge, arms cross the chest folded together, muscles in the jaw begin to tighten, breathing starts getting heavier.

I have never seen these reactions in any other kind of case. And the defendant is sitting there watching all of this. This is what Mondrowitz will see. It is not a pleasant sight. And it is a sight which sends chills down the back of any criminal defense attorney.

Prisons seek to segregate these type of people from the general population. Getting kosher food in prison will be the least of his worries if he is convicted. Kosher food is generally available in places like New York. But the hardened criminal operates according to a set of existential postualtes that the man-in-the-street has no familiarity with.

They will wait for an opportunity to give a man like him a thorough thrashing. This is exactly why Jeffrey Dahmer was killed despite attempts to segregate him. A catholic priest (though his name evades me) was also killed in prison. It will not be pleasant for Mondrowitz if convicted.

In a way I feel sorry for him knowing what I know and envisioning his life if convicted. I have seen that these people are truly sick. I am not making excuses for the man and recognize that he may have committed horrible acts against children however nobody ever wins in these cases.

Whatever happens to him is richly deserved. I only wish it would also happen to the "religious" asswipes who covered up for him all these years, both here and in Israel.

Rubashkin could not have won the elections, without the Meshichisten, since the majority in Crown Heights are so inclined.

Rubashkin won over the Meshichisten, with lies and with MONEY.

Yes, Rubashkin’s promises of Money, the root of all evil, bought himslef the election.

Rubashkin promised about 4 million of a government grant for tourism, to be given for the Tishrey Hachnosas Orchim, which got him the sympathy of all the Meshichisten who care for the Rebbe’s Orchim.

Of course Rubashkin never delivered on ANY of his campaign promises.

But hind site is 20/20 and at the time, during his election, people fell for his campaign promises, regardless of him being known to be totally NUTS.

That could never happen again now, Chas Vesholom because since then Rubashkin has shown all his true colors when he teemed up with the Lowest Level of the Anti Meshichisten, “Peace with the Devil”’s Fisher Shemtov and Krinsky teams.

Rubashkin is the master liar. he promisies and does nothing.

He is possesed with having total power which is destroying CH.

He has done for harm then good in CH. He has 2 idiots helping with his dumb work. Lang and Plotkin are even too afraid to open their mouths to argue with him.

He treats the workers in the council like trash (typical Rubashkin family style).

Ask the workers how he abuses them.

They are too afraid to say a word otherwise he will fire them.

He now has his Rabbi under his clutches. Which honest Rabbi can write such letters about people which he has done.

Why? Rubashkin signs the Rabbi’s checks.

Maybe we should make elections for new Real Rabbonim.

I now see all of them are corrupt to the core.

Another week another thrust to the heart of the sh’chuna.

About the Rubbishcan Rag:

How do you make newspaper? Find a lot of money. Take it out of programs, that is, steal it from the needy. Deliver it by mail; it costs a lot more that way. Put a BIG picture of the Rebbe on the front so real Chasidim can’t just throw it away. Fill it with self-serving drivel and puff pieces for friends and stooges of the "OWNER." You have to be impressed with the shameless, unmitigated chutzpah of Rubbishcan.

The only news in his "newspaper" is the announcement of the executive committee of his fake Netzigim: a tiny rabbi, a fischeriste and a dunce already on his payroll.

It is significant that these nonstarters in the scheme of community leadership are the only ones willing to take the reins of Rubbishcan’s sham netzigim. And as if there were any doubt about Rubbishcan’s position on Moshiach and Geulah, a look at his guest writers tells the tale. Half of them hail from points left and farther left, revisionists and distorters of the Rebbe’s major themes.

Another contributor is the regular ringmaster at Rubbishcan’s mechitza-less Purim party.

A page and half to the Met Council and its executive director???

They have provided only a small fraction of the CHJCC budget.

Their major contribution to this community has been to support the position of our convicted felon!!!

After the borough Park COJO scandal this is what they think of our community!!

There are serious implications to this kind of support.

By the way, when Rubbishcan co-opted the CHJCC a new community web site was under construction – another initiative he killed.

With launch parties this past weekend in Los Angeles, London, New York and Jerusalem, the new Shemspeed Web portal is clearly a wide-reaching initiative. The comprehensive, daily updated site (www.shemspeed.com) sports a global events calendar, a trove of CD reviews and other readings, a digital download store, loads of hand-picked Jewish music videos and even a streaming Web radio station.

Shemspeed is the latest addition to the edgy Jewish media empire of Brooklyn-based Erez Safar, 28, who heads the independent record label Modular Moods, manages New York City's annual Sephardic Music Festival and spins electro-breakbeat ethnic mashup jams at parties under the moniker DJ Handler.

"The new site is the only place you could listen and get turned on to Orthodox and very unorthodox Jewish music," boasts Safar.

The Web site's Jerusalem representative, Maaryasha Werdiger, who fronted all of the event's expenses in an arrangement more akin to a franchise license than a cultural upstart, is excited to plan even more local events - both with and without the Shemspeed brand name.

"Shemspeed is really helping to raise the profile of Jewish music globally," said the Australian, who arrived in Israel just four months ago.

THE Adelaide Hebrew Congregation (AHC) is withdrawing from an agreement to arbitrate its long-running dispute with Rabbi Yossi Engel.

AHC board member Allen Bolaffi said the synagogue was withdrawing from the arbitration agreement it signed in May, due to a lack of progress in setting up an arbitration procedure.

“We are prepared to submit ourselves to the jurisdiction of a properly constituted independent beth din. At this point, we do not see the arbitration as having any relevance or value. In our view, they have shown no willingness to proceed on the matter, and we can only regard the arbitration as having come to an end,” the announcement stated.

Bolaffi told The AJN that if a threatened siruv (religious contempt order) was placed on the shul, as a consequence of pulling out of the arbitration, the shul would face those circumstances.

In another development, the AHC has deferred its legal action in the District Court of South Australia to recover goods valued at about $5000, which it claims are in the possession of Rabbi Engel, until after a criminal investigation by South Australian Police is wound up.

The goods include a car, furniture, fridges, freezers and the shul’s Pesach crockery.

Rabbi Engel is running regular minyanim at his Adelaide home.

The AHC advised Rabbi Engel last year that his contract with the shul, which ended in December, would not be renewed.

Since then, an investigation has been launched by South Australian Police into fake report cards Rabbi Engel allegedly signed and government funding allegedly paid to a non-existent Adelaide Jewish school.

The Supreme Court of South Australia ruled earlier this year that Rabbi Engel’s contract with the AHC has ended.

Orthodox rabbis claim AJN poll flawed on same-sex ceremonies

Joshua Levi

A SURVEY on ajn.com.au has sparked a heated response from the Rabbinical Council of NSW (RCNSW), an organisation that represents most Orthodox rabbis in the state.

Michael Barnett, from Melbourne’s only Jewish gay organisation, Aleph, said he is not surprised by the response from the Orthodox rabbis.

“For the most part, the Orthodox community does not handle issues of homosexuality well and its usual method of dealing with it is to vehemently denounce it and sweep it under the carpet,” Barnett told The AJN.

He said that despite the official response, he has hope for the future after being invited, with his male partner, to share a Shabbat meal with an Orthodox rabbi.

Family divided over father’s £10m legacy
02/11/2007
By Simon Rocker
The Appeal Court has ruled that the son of a prominent Orthodox businessman is entitled to half of a disputed legacy estimated to be worth over £10 million, despite a legal challenge from some of his sisters.

The judgment follows years of argument thrashed out in both rabbinic and secular courts.

Izak Kohn, a former chairman of Kedassia, London’s strictly Orthodox kashrut authority, and honorary life president of the Union of Orthodox Hebrew Congregations, died intestate in August 2001.

After his death, his four daughters discovered that he had transferred shares he owned in their favour.

But his son Chaim, who now lives mainly in Israel, maintained that his father had not intended to hand them the shares but had done so to save inheritance tax.

He claimed that his father, who ran a photo-album company, wished him to have 50 per cent of the shares, with the remaining half distributed among the daughters.

His claims, however, were contested by three of his sisters, who brought the dispute to the London Beth Din.

In December 2002, the Beth Din rejected their case, although it concluded: “The deceased did not intend at any time for the share transfers actually to effect the transfer of the shares for the benefit of [the sisters] and the purpose of the share transfers was to avoid tax.”

When the sisters failed to comply with the terms of a subsequent award made by the Beth Din, the rabbinical judges gave leave to Chaim Kohn to seek its enforcement through the High Court.

But when the court backed the Beth Din’s ruling, two of the sisters, Dinah Berger and Sheva Wagschal, launched a further appeal.

The Appeal Court, which sat in July, has now confirmed the validity of the Beth Din’s decision.

In his judgment, Lord Justice Waller said: “What the Beth Din have decided is that, as a matter of Jewish law, there was no evidence of a gift to the sisters.

“It seems to me that there is no public policy which requires this court not to enforce that award.”

But the question of possible tax evasion had troubled the court.

“Should the person relying on the illegality be entitled to have a windfall or is the situation such that the court can both prevent that windfall without seeming to condone illegal conduct?” he asked.

As a result, he ordered that “all the relevant documents” should be passed to the Inland Revenue.

“The right course,” he concluded, “is to place the relevant documents before the Revenue, so that they can ascertain for themselves whether any deception is being perpetrated on them, or whether they have had a full and frank disclosure as to the question whether these shares formed part of the estate of the deceased at his death.”

November 19, 2007 -- A TOP aide to Gov. Spitzer in volved in the Dirty Tricks Scandal angrily threatened to "professionally kill" a top utility executive for opposing the governor's energy policies, sources have told The Post.

Spitzer Policy Director Peter Pope said he was "going to kill" Gavin Donohue, the head of the Independent Power Producers of New York

"He was really threatening Gavin. It was unbelievable. It was shocking," said one of the state's best-known lobbyists.

"Pope was screaming and threatening to get him fired with his bosses and jabbing his finger in Donohue's face," added another source, who claimed Pope had also threatened several lobbyists over policy disagreements.

"He was yelling at Gavin, 'You're working against us! You're trying to hurt us! You have to pressure [Senate Majority Leader Joseph] Bruno to get with us on this!'

Donohue, former deputy chief of staff to Gov. George Pataki and a one-time state Environmental Conservation Department executive deputy commissioner, wasn't intimidated by the confrontation, telling associates, "I told Pope, in so many words, to go f - - - himself."

"I have never been treated so unprofessionally in my whole life," he told associates.

The sources, meanwhile, compared Pope's alleged behavior to the repeated charges that Spitzer - a self-described "f- - - -ng steamroller" - has repeatedly threatened or sought to intimidate political enemies and policy opponents, both as governor and as attorney general.

Pope, a longtime Spitzer friend, was known as "Eliot's bully" because of his aggressiveness as a high-level deputy to Attorney General Spitzer, said a source in the AG's Office.

Pope is one of three Spitzer lawyers who helped prepare a controversial sworn statement for the governor's former communications director, Darren Dopp, in which Dopp gave details of his role in the effort to use the State Police to gather purportedly damaging information on Bruno (R-Rensselaer).

Dopp, according to sources, contradicted a claim in the sworn statement in under-oath testimony to the state Public Integrity Commission, alleging that he was pressed into signing it by Pope and other Spitzer aides.

Pope was interviewed Friday by investigators for Albany District Attorney David Soares, who is believed to be considering perjury charges against Dopp.

November 12, 2007 -- HERE'S yet another reason to lock your kid in the house until she reaches 30.

When Nina Perez's 15-year-old daughter asked permission to attend a party for teens at a Manhattan club, the clueless mom was open to the idea. Her little girl was responsible and mature. What could be the harm?

But then, Nina happened upon a Web site dedicated to the weekly "19 and under" parties held at Club Deep on West 22nd Street. And she felt sick.

The site features color photos of "young people, half-dressed, having sex with clothes on!" Nina, 39, said, with equal parts alarm and disgust.

"There are couples and even triples all over each other in sexual positions, and then there are live shows on stage for the crowd to watch, where a young man with only pants and a young girl in skimpy top and practically no shorts grind and imitate sexual intercourse. See for yourself."

So I did.

Teen parties, it turns out, are held in all five boroughs, luring kids with online ads, a MySpace page and even paper fliers. Young people are drawn by the promise of scant adult supervision and free admission before 8:30 p.m. The party doesn't stop until 2.

While no alcohol is served, Perez said, her 17-year-old son told her that kids get wasted the moment they're out the door, and fights break out. Her son doesn't want his sister going.

What's more, the party is for teens ages 13 to 19 - meaning girls of 13 are invited to grind against men of 19. But, the ad boasts, "No ID required."

Some of the girls look to be 12.

Some of the guys look 25. Maybe older. See for yourself on cinteenbash.com.

Here, girls' clothes strip away the moment they walk in the door, revealing bikini bras and shorts the size of postage stamps. At a party held Oct. 13, two scantily clad and extremely young girls are seen performing lap dances aboard their grateful beaus.

A man calling himself Yanni answered the phone at the Fort Lee, N.J., offices of party promoters C.I.N. He assured me "there are no alcoholic beverages" at the parties, "and a full security staff. It's completely safe."

But when asked if ID was required, Yanni said, "The only people who probably get asked for ID look extremely old." Asked if there was a minimum age, Yanni laughed, "If you're 12 years old, you shouldn't be in the city anyway."

He promised to have someone directly involved with teen parties call me. No one did.

November 18, 2007 -- POLICE Commissioner Ray Kelly will be ap pearing twice within a couple of weeks in Orthodox Jewish strongholds in Brooklyn, areas where at least one elected official says he'd be a strong contender for mayor in 2009.

Kelly has accepted an invitation to speak on Nov. 27 at a breakfast in Borough Park sponsored by City Councilman Simcha Felder (D-Brooklyn).

Felder said the event could draw 400 to 500 people.

Speakers at Felder's previous breakfasts have all been elected officials: Mayor Bloomberg, Comptroller Bill Thompson, former City Council Speaker Gifford Miller and Brooklyn DA Charles "Joe" Hynes.

"People in communities throughout the city are very, very appreciative of the job he has done to protect citizens," Felder said, explaining why he invited Kelly.

Just days later and blocks away, the commissioner has an appointment to speak with residents at a local police community council meeting.

Paul Browne, Kelly's spokesman, insisted that the two engagements are nothing out of the ordinary.

"He's done many, many such events in his role as police commissioner during both tenures and over years in various capacities from precinct commander to first deputy commissioner," Browne said. "It's not a sign of him entering the political arena."

But conservative Jews would certainly take a favorable view of Kelly if he decided to run for City Hall, according to Felder.

"A lot of people in my community are hoping that he will change his mind and seek public office," he said.

Lobbyists for some of the city's biggest corporations and developers are hiding the names of city employees they've tried to influence in apparent violation of the law, a Daily News probe has found.

Last January, a new was past requiring all lobbyists to list by name all city employees they've pressed to obtain tax breaks, zoning changes, contracts and other perks for their clients.

The News found 95% of the 264 lobbyists who filed reports this year failed to reveal the names of the so-called "targets" they lobbied on their registration forms.

As a result, the public has no way to know which levers most well-paid lobbyists are trying to pull for their powerful clients.

On Friday, Acting City Clerk Michael McSweeney, whose office monitors lobbyists, ordered an investigation to ensure the law is enforced in response to the ongoing News investigation of lobbyists.

"People are supposed to be following the law," McSweeney said. "They're supposed to specifically state the people that they're lobbying and the subject matter upon which they are lobbying. The law is clear.

"Based on what we've seen, clearly a lot of people are not adhering to that as specifically as required."

The lobbyists could face fines and even prosecution on misdemeanor charges.

UOJ, in all fairness, I don't think Rav Elyashev deserves his picture atop the caption of "Latest Fatwa: No one is Jewish".

It's an old story that various thugs announce things in his name and it wouldn't surprise me one bit if Tropper is purposely misrepresenting in cahoots with the Eretz Yisroeldik faction who don't let anyone in while Rav Elyashev horevs on his masechta 14 hours a day.

Leib Pinter has been accused of going this route against Slifkin and he & Tropper are friends.

I don't know exactly which of Rav Elyashev's self-appointed bodyguards are behind this, but if you listen to Joseph Izrael, he thinks that Efrati is worse than Belsky & Mendel Epstein combined.

In these type of cases where the evidence is strong, you seek a plea offer. Where there are holes in the State's case, you attempt to have the charges changed to felony battery against a child and take it entirely out of the sexual sphere.

I do not know the facts of this case. I am assuming that the evidence against him will be fairly strong. That combined with the nature of this case (child sexual abuse) will give him a slim to no chance of winning.

What you would seek to do as a defense attorney is to sever the charges and try them separately so that there will not be 10 victims at once. If the acts of sexual abuse were comitted at different times and in separate transactions then you would file a motion to sever.

This means that there would not be 10 victims but one. When the defendant is facing one victim his chances are increased because reasonable doubt would be easier to establish, generally speaking.

A smart State Attorney however would seek to counter this attempt of the defense by filing a motion to admit similar fact evidence. What this means is that you would attempt to introduce similar fact evidence of other crimes, wrongs, or acts.

So let us say that Mondrowitz committed most of these crimes in a very similar and distinctive fashion, the evidence would be entered to show opportunity or motive. Let us say that Mondrowitz used his position as a psychologist to gain confidence and the various crimes were so similar in other important respects, then the other witnesses or victims could be brought into the trial.

In other words in a trial charging Mondrowitz with a crime against victim #1, then victim #2 and #3 might testify if the motion is granted. In such an instance the chance of the defense to win the case is diminished.

There is a debate raging over at Vicky's Jewish Survivor Blog.

Someone is insisting that there were actual rapes going on at Ner Israel.

I wonder if Vicky would allow such posts through if she thought they were too farfetched.

U.S. officials had requested Mondrowitz's extradition in 1985 soon after he arrived in Israel, but the Interior Minister at the time, Yitzhak Peretz of the ultra- Orthodox Shas Party, did not act on the request.

The Israeli response to the U.S. extradition request was "lukewarm to negative," according to one American official who spoke on condition of anonymity two years after the request.

Peretz left office several months later, and his replacement, Ronnie Milo, ordered Mondrowitz expelled.

"This is one of the worst cases I could ever imagine," Milo said on Israel Radio in 1987. "After checking the details I decided this man should be sent to the United States and be punished for the terrible things he did to children."

Peretz told Israeli television he refused to extradite Mondrowitz because he had no conclusive proof that the charges against him were true.

A top Israeli rabbi was injured in a circumcision accident.

Rabbi Yosef Shalom Eliashiv, leader of the powerful Lithuanian religious movement, served as godfather at a Jerusalem brit Wednesday but suffered a deep cut to his hand, apparently when the mohel slipped.

The 97-year-old sage received stitches and was declared well. The baby was unharmed.

News of the accident had stirred anxiety throughout the fervently Orthodox community at Elisahiv's fate.

Participants at the brit agreed not to publish the mohel's name for fear of harming his business. He was widely assumed to have been nervous because of the eminent Eliashiv's presence.

Bloomberg News — Arbco Capital Management LLP and Mid West Trading LLC President Hayim Regensberg was charged by federal prosecutors with running an $8 million Ponzi scheme that defrauded investors.

Regensberg, 43, was arrested today for securities and wire fraud stemming from initial public offering and other investment products he marketed to investors in New York and elsewhere, Manhattan U.S. Attorney Michael Garcia said in a
statement.

Prosecutors claimed Regensberg, of Manhattan, stole client funds after promising to use them to invest in international IPOs, or as short-term loans to trading institutions. He promised returns between 10 and 18 percent, Garcia said. He faces as much as 40 years in prison if convicted.

"Regensberg paid out some of the money he took in from new investors to earlier investors in amounts he claimed to be "profits' from investments, thereby perpetrating a "Ponzi' scheme,'' Garcia said in the statement.

The case is U.S. v. Regensberg, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (Manhattan).

http://www.northcountrygazette.org/news/2007/11/19/investment_ponzi/

Regensberg allegedly gave significant amounts of the funds to his relatives. Regensberg also invested and lost large portions of the money in highly speculative options trading. Regensberg paid out some of the money he took in from new investors to earlier investors in amounts he claimed to be “profits” from investments, thereby perpetrating a “Ponzi” scheme.

When some investors confronted Regensberg about the fact that they had stopped receiving regular payment of promised investment returns, and asked him whether their invested proceeds were safe, Regensberg provided the investors with a forged bank document purporting to show he still maintained approximately $9 million in an Arbco bank account, when in fact that account contained only approximately $9,000 at that time.

According to the complaint, Regensberg allegedly stole, and/or lost in speculative trading, in excess of $8 million in investor funds.

The complaint charges Regensberg with one count of securities fraud and one count of wire fraud. Regensberg faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison on each count. He also faces on the securities fraud count a fine of the greater of $5 million or twice the gross gain or gross loss from the offense, and on the wire fraud count a fine of the greater of $250,000 or twice the gross gain or gross loss from the offense. 11-19-07

The verdict that was now announced is in favor of the younger brother, Rabbi Zalman Teitelbaum from Brooklyn, over his older brother, Rabbi Aaron Teitelbaum from Kiryas Joel, NY.

With the judges decision it determines that Rabbi Zalman's faction controls millions of dollars worth of synagogues, businesses and other property, mostly in Brooklyn, but it won't affect Kiryas Joel's institutions, which are owned separately and controlled by Aaron's side.

The question is why wasn't Mondrowitz put on trial in Israel at least?

Anonymous said...

Yeah of course I understand the pain the children feel probably more than you realize. I have represented parent accused of abusing, neglecting and abandoning their kids. I have interviewed and conducted depositions of children who have been whipped with extension cords, beaten, and who have watched their mothers smoking crack in front of them. I recognize that Mondrowitz will be punished and must be punished. In no way do I suggest that he should get a free pass. Yet at then end of the day I still pity him and still feel sorry for him. So put me up against a wall and shoot me.

I have a friend from college who was raised a Bobover Chosid. He was molested by his therapist at a young age. It messed him up. He became a punk rocker and a drug abuser. But he still managed to graduate, and maintained a Yiddish neshome. The rare occasions he would daven, he would daven like a chosid, with true kavanah.

Eventually, he kicked drugs, dressed mainstream, and even returned to observance as Modern Orthodox (although he davens in a Chassidic shtebl.) He is successful in business, and has a beautiful family. I wonder if his therapist was Mondro?

One can argue "all's well that ends well," but I'm sure he would have been spared pain, and taken a less circuitous route to happiness had a scumbag not molested him as a child.

Israel's Conservative movement threatens to sue ex-chief rabbi

By Yair Ettinger, Haaretz Correspondent

Tags: Judaism, Orthodox

Israel's Masorti (Conservative) Movement is threatening legal action against former Sephardi chief rabbi Mordechai Eliyahu for saying that "the reek of hell wafts" from Reform and Conservative synagogues, and it is therefore forbidden to walk by them.

Eliyahu, a leading religious Zionist rabbi, made the remark last week during his weekly Torah lecture. It was later reprinted in the bulletin Kol Tzofayich, which was distributed in synagogues throughout Israel over the weekend.

In his lecture, Eliyahu related that he was once invited to a circumcision in a building that contained three synagogues, one Orthodox, one Conservative and one Reform. The Orthodox synagogue, he said, was on the top floor, "and I wondered how I would enter and pass by these synagogues, from which the reek of hell wafts ... They told me that there was a sort of side kitchen through which one could go up without passing those synagogues, and I told them that I would only go up via that kitchen, and only if I would not pass the entrances to those forbidden synagogues."
