This week marks fifty years since the Six Day War and liberation of Jerusalem. At that time the Rebbe famously launched his signature Tefillin campaign to keep Israel safe. I have made a personal goal for these few weeks to get 50 people to wrap tefillin. So far we hit #27! Can you help me reach my goal? Shoot me an email and I will get you all wrapped up in under 5 minutes! :) You can track me on Facebook using hashtag #50tefillin

I am sorry to report that although significant time and efforts for resuscitation were spent, we have reached the inevitable death of our dear friend, the Uptown Grill, that served up and fed the Uptown hungry stomachs delicious and perfectly cooked steaks, kabobs, chicken, burgers and hot dogs faithfully for five years.
