Crazy Deer Wants More Beer!
A deer crashed through the window of Luke's Bar and Grill on Main Street in Bluffton, SC. Surveillance video shows a typical Friday afternoon in the bar. Around 2:30, an unexpected customer comes crashing through a window. The buck topples tables and struggles to regain its footing. The deer gone wild startled patrons and employees. One even got on top of the bar to keep a safe distance. The buck scrambled down the aisle, slipping and skidding on the floor, as it frantically looked for an exit. When it finds one, it stands in front of it and looks as though it might take another fateful leap.
But one quick-thinking employee decides to show this deer out. He runs around back and appears to try to prop open a door. It closes behind him as he goes inside but not for long. Soon, the employee comes running back out with the deer at his heels and the buck bolts into the neighborhood.
Those at Luke's say no one was hurt. The only damages were to the window, tables and chairs.

Chaos During the Night at Jerusalem Residence
Hundreds of people demonstrated at the Batei Varsha ('בתי ורשא') residence in Jerusalem, following the arrest of a young Rabbi Abraham Hirschman, a neighborhood residents. The protesters threw stones and eventually fled the riot policemen who arrived later.
VinNews.com Mea She’arim - Some 300 haredi men took to Agudat Israel street in the capital’s Me’a She’arim neighborhood late Tuesday night, to protest the evacuation of a warehouse in the Batei Varsha area.
Haredi media outlets reported the Tuesday afternoon arrest of Avraham Hirshman, a central activist in the struggle between members of Batei Varsha and Kollel Polin over the building’s ownership, as the reason to the protest, as well as the discontent in the haredi street was caused by what they perceive as the police’s intervention on behalf of Kollel Polin, who regained ownership of the building.
Protesters threw stones at the police forces alerted to the scene, who dispersed the demonstrators without the use of special means. No casualties were reported

Man in Wheelchair Stops Robber
He has been confined to a wheelchair since breaking his back ten years ago. But when Larry Skopnik saw a customer threatening the shopkeeper at a local store he didn't let his disabilities get in the way. Propelling his wheelchair towards the man, Mr. Skopnik got him in a headlock, then wrestled him to the ground. He was able to hang on to him until two other customers came to his aid. The man was then arrested by police.
Mr. Skopnik had been shopping at the Food Store on Commerical Drive, in Vancouver, when he saw the man attempting to pay with a suspect $50 note. Cashier Cindy Grewal refused to accept it - at which point the thief charged behind the counter. 'Boom, I tried to grab him,' Mr Skopnik said describing how the weight eventually pulled him out of the chair.

Investigation in The Standing on Sidewalk Ticket
Click Here for the original footage.
NEW YORK (WABC) -- There are more troubling questions about what critics say is the NYPD's obsession with ticket and arrest quotas.
It is 10 p.m. on a Sunday and Yosef Bergovoy is standing on a sidewalk talking to his friends. In a moment, these three college students became suspects of a criminal misdemeanor. Four NYPD officers gave them each a summons for "blocking pedestrian traffic", even though a photograph shows a virtually empty sidewalk. They were detained for about an hour and much of the incident was videotaped by a friend. Click Here For More.

Canadian PM: I Will Defend Israel 'Whatever The Cost'
Ottawa, Canada - Prime Minister Stephen Harper says he is prepared to suffer any political backlash that comes his way for speaking out against anti-Israel rhetoric.
Harper told an audience Monday that while Israel is receptive to fair criticism, Canada is obligated to stand up for its ally when it comes under attack from others.
"Not just because it is the right thing to do, but because history shows us, and the ideology of the anti-Israel mob tell us all too well, that those who threaten the existence of the Jewish people are in the longer term a threat to all of us."
The prime minister acknowledged that his position is not popular with all governments and organizations, including members of the United Nations and the Francophonie.
Harper made his remarks at the start of a two-day conference on anti-Semitism that is being held on Parliament Hill during Holocaust Education Week.

Don Imus on Making Fun of Kars4Kids
Radio talk show host Don Imus has apologized for slamming a commercial for a kids charity — saying he was merely poking fun at a jingle that he says literally annoys everyone in possession of a working radio.
It all started during a commercial break on Wednesday’s show when the Kars4Kids jingle started to play, and Imus — clearly not a fan of the jingle — begged the singer to “shut up” and “go to —.”
Imus then groaned, “I should give you my Bentley — you morons.”
A rep for Kars4Kids tells TMZ they were flooded with emails — and eventually posted a clip on their website with the title, “Is Imus really donating his Bentley to Kars4Kids?”
But the next day, Kars4Kids says Imus issued a “fairly thorough retraction and apology on air” — and the group now insists that all is forgiven. A rep for Imus tells us, “Very catchy tune, very silly controversy.”

After many long months of diligent work in the studio, Teem Productions today proudly announced Monday November 22nd as the release date of Yisroel Werdyger’s highly anticipated new album “Ashira Va’azamra”. In conjunction with that announcement, they have also released the cover of the album, designed by Sruly Meyer. The album includes compositions by many well known composers such as Yossi Green, Yitzy Waldner, Pinky Weber, and Meshulam Greenberger, as well as the work of new talents.
Why is Teem Productions so excited about this album? Producer Gershy Moskowitz explains: “when you have a debut album like Bayis Neeman that is so unbelievably successful, it’s easy to fall into the trap of trying to match it. Instead we went all out to create something so special that it would blow even Bayis Neeman away. As we are doing the final mixing and mastering and listening over and over, I can tell you that bechasdei Hashem I feel overwhelmingly confident that we have accomplished that goal in a very big way.” Moskowitz gives much of the credit to co-producer Yossi Tyberg and Shua Fried, the album's arranger "Both of them are only too well known for their ability, but with their work on this album they both seriously took things to the next level
The album will be available in stores and online through Aderet Music in CD or Digital Download form.

Tell It To The One - Reflecting on Recent Tragedies
Melody, lyrics and vocals by Boruch Sholom Blesofsky.
"Tell It To The One" was created in the beginning of the 2010 summer and was influenced by the then recent tragedies. Tragedies such as the terrorist attack at the Mumbai Chabad house where 6 Kedoshim were murdered on that fateful November night in 2008, 29 Cheshvan 5769.
This past shabbos was the second Yahrtzeit of the Mumbai Kedoshim. This past Friday just after the funeral of a young Chabad Shliach, a 23 year-old chosson from Los Angeles, C.A. passed away so tragically in a water sports accident.
