Management agency quick to send out eviction notices

A Management agency for one of Lakewood's largest developments has started to send out eviction notices as early as after a week of non payment for the rent. No warnings, no rachmanus, no grace period, no courtesy, even for tenants who have a clean record and always pay on time. These practices are not new, but its obnoxious that fun unzere would hire outside agencies who treat the tzibbur with no respect.

Traveling to and from CHOP will be difficult

Given the large number of people expected to be in the Philadelphia area, we know you may have questions about how the event will impact your child’s care at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.

CHOP would like to assure all patients and families that we will continue to provide the best care to patients. That said, some clinics and services will have varied schedules or alternate locations. This will help us meet our patients’ needs without impacting the quality of care.

We anticipate the greatest travel impact to begin the evening of Thursday 9/24 through Monday morning 9/28.

A public message from Chestnut Esrogim

A PUBLIC MESSAGE FROM RAV YOSEF GREENFELD, MORA DASRA Bais Medrash D’Chestnut 
This year, due to Shmita, Lechatchila we are only selling Esrogei Chutz Laretz from Italy & Morocco.
                                              ORDER ONLINE HERE
As the supply of these Esrogim in the entire market is very short, & the demand is extremely high, the pricing & quality of this years Esrogim is more challenging as was in previous years. With the Rovs guidance, the Shuls askonim, as in the past, are doing their utmost to deliver the most Mehudar Esrogim they can get, while keeping the prices low. 

For those looking for that perfect, clean Esorg, we are unable to offer such Esrogim this year, as it will be extremely expensive. For those

NJDOT: Watch For Deer on the Roads This Fall

OCEAN COUNTY – The New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife is urging motorists to be alert for white-tailed deer on the roadways with the upcoming arrival of the fall breeding season. Drivers should especially be alert during the morning and evening commutes when visibility may be poor and deer are more active. Studies indicate the peak mating season for deer in New Jersey runs from late October into mid-December. Motorists are urged to alert the Department of Transportation of dead deer discovered along the state highway system.
