Who's giving the Hechsher on Shevy sheitlach? Erroneous Delivery of Wigs Sets Off Copyright-Infringement Suit By JOSEPH GOLDSTEIN - Staff Reporter of the Sun April 13, 2006 A package delivered in error - of wigs made from human hair, worth $30,000 - has set off a million-dollar copyright-infringement lawsuit between two rival Brooklyn wig makers. Shevy Custom Wigs, one of the world's largest importers of human hair, has sued its smaller rival, Aggie Wigs, charging that they have been selling a low-quality line of wigs under the Shevy brand name. "It's best for our reputation not to have wigs of a lesser quality out there with our name on them," the owner of Shevy, Elon Emanuel, said. The suit was filed in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn on Monday. The trouble began March 20, when a Federal Express deliveryman dropped off 16 packages of wigs assembled and labeled in China to Shevy, located in the Midwood section of Brooklyn. Fifteen of those boxes were addressed t...

Haredi Handshake = Dead Fish w w w . h a a r e t z . c o m Last update - 19:01 20/04/2006 Shirt tales from the yeshiva By Shahar Ilan Handbag No more plastic bag When a Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) yeshiva student ventures out into the world and starts to learn a profession, he usually also undergoes a second upheaval: instead of carrying a plastic bag, he now has a handbag. As a yeshiva student, the plastic bag, containing only a sandwich and fruit, suits his needs and also conveys the proper image of modesty and naivete. At the Haredi Center for Technological Studies, he discovers that the plastic bag cannot carry the weight of the books and is also not respectable enough. "I moved to a handbag because the plastic bag was no longer nice ... I don't like walking around with a bag like that, like a schnorrer ... A bag starts to tear, to wear out ... the color fades," said yeshiva student Eliezer Gleitman, who also studies at the center. He continued to study at a yeshiva in t...

Ramapo police to accompany fireman on calls to New Square Respect from New Square By THE JOURNAL NEWSTHE JOURNAL NEWS(Original Publication: April 21, 2006) This must now be the routine in the Hillcrest (Moleston) Fire District: Any time a call is placed for New Square, Ramapo police must accompany the volunteers as escort. They should no longer be subject to harassment for doing their unpaid jobs, and police should arrest those who interfere. It is simply a great lack of respect that some in New Square, a religious-based village north of Hillcrest, picks on these firefighters, who are there to save lives and property. That Hillcrest fire officials, including longtime department volunteer and Rockland Fire Coordinator Gordon Wren Jr., have complained about dangerous building and fire code violations is not justification for such ill treatment. Where are the village elders? Hillcrest firefighters recently filed a criminal complaint claiming they had cornered two boys they believed were s...

It's a saga worthy of Shakespeare. Satmar rebbe out of intensive care GAL BECKERMAN, THE JERUSALEM POST Apr. 22, 2006 Local Satmar Hassidim saw nothing short of a miracle Tuesday when physicians at Manhattan's Mt. Sinai Hospital announced that their 91-year-old grand rebbe, Moses Teitelbaum, was being moved out of intensive care and would be returning to his home in Brooklyn's Williamsburg neighborhood within two weeks. The medical crisis - which began when Teitelbaum's remaining kidney failed, exacerbating his advanced spinal cancer - has apparently passed for now. The development also seems to have postponed a succession battle that has been brewing for nearly a decade between two of his sons, Zalman and Aaron, and that threatens to explode after the rebbe's death. It's a saga worthy of Shakespeare. Although the roots of the conflict are shrouded in mystery - there have been complaints that the older son, Aaron, has a dictatorial management style - the first ...
