New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has assembled an 18-member Advisory Committee on the Judiciary with zero Jewish members. This panel screens and recommends candidates for judgeships in the city Criminal Court, Family Court, and interim Civil Court positions. The mayor and his aides described the group as a truly representative cross-section of New York legal profession and a reflection of the cosmopolitan population of the city. Yet in a city that is home to the largest Jewish population in the United States and where Jewish attorneys make up an estimated 35 to 50 percent of the legal profession, not a single Jewish lawyer, former judge, or legal professional sits on the committee.

Jewish bar associations reacted with deep disappointment. Leaders of the Brandeis Association of Queens, the New York County Jewish Lawyers Guild, the Brooklyn Brandeis Society, and the Bronx County Jewish Bar Association sent a formal letter to the mayor. They stated that excluding Jewish representation is neither reflective nor inclusive. They warned that the omission follows a troubling pattern that has left many Jewish New Yorkers feeling increasingly marginalized. The letter called on the mayor to correct the exclusion and reaffirm that Jewish New Yorkers deserve the same representation, respect, and protection as every other community.

This is not a minor staffing decision. It is a glaring signal about priorities, power, and the selective application of diversity in progressive New York.

Traffic crashes and personal injuries remain a serious concern in the Bronx. In 2024, the borough recorded 10,028 crashes, including 4,416 that resulted in injuries and 54 traffic deaths. According to a Transportation Alternatives study, the Bronx carries a serious injury rate 20 to 23 percent above the citywide per capita average, making it the most affected borough in New York City for crash severity. Distracted driving alone caused 37 percent of all Bronx crashes in 2022, the single leading contributing factor.

Major collisions, falls, and construction incidents can leave people with fractures, nerve pain, concussions, surgical needs, and lost income. Legal counsel gives order to that first stressful period. Teams such as Shulman & Hill Bronx protect evidence, track deadlines, review insurance contacts, and connect medical records to daily limitations. With steady guidance, injured people can focus on healing while the claim develops around facts, records, and measured losses.

New York Attorney General Letitia James today secured $375,000 from 1-800-Flowers.com, Inc. (1-800-Flowers) for misleading consumers and enrolling customers in automatically-renewing paid subscriptions. 1-800-Flowers sells flowers, food, and other gifts through a host of brands, including 1-800-Flowers.com, 1-800-Baskets.com, Cheryl’s Cookies, Harry & David, Shari’s Berries, The Popcorn Factory, and more. An investigation by the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) found that 1-800-Flowers failed to clearly disclose the terms of a subscription service that included free shipping, failed to provide consumers with the subscription acknowledgment required by New York law, and did not notify subscribers before the subscription renewed automatically. As a result, many customers did not realize they had signed up for a yearly subscription and were charged recurring fees for a service they never used. Under the settlement with OAG, 1-800-Flowers must pay $375,000 in penalties, change its subscription practices, and offer restitution to subscribers.

“Companies that trick consumers into signing up for recurring subscriptions are breaking the law and costing New Yorkers their hard-earned money,” said Attorney General James. “1-800-Flowers buried their terms in fine print and failed to warn consumers they were signing up for automatically renewing subscriptions. My office is putting a stop to these deceptive practices and ensuring New Yorkers get their money back.”

New York law requires subscription terms to be clearly disclosed to customers, including the minimum term length, the fact that the subscription renews, and the cancellation policy. Businesses must also get affirmative consent for automatic renewals, provide a post-purchase acknowledgment, and offer an easy cancellation process.

1-800-Flowers offers a “Celebrations Passport” subscription across its brands that eliminates shipping fees and service charges on orders for a yearly fee priced between $14.99 and $29.99. The OAG found…

The 2026 FIFA World Cup halftime show turned out to be a major disappointment. Old songs, mediocre performances, and a complete lack of energy left millions of viewers around the world underwhelmed. What should have been a spectacular celebration of global culture and musical excellence felt tired, uninspired, and disconnected from the excitement of the tournament itself. Organizers missed a golden opportunity to deliver something fresh and dynamic. Instead, they served up a nostalgic rerun that failed to capture the spirit of the moment.

This was supposed to be a showcase for the best in entertainment during one of the biggest sporting events on Earth. The co-hosted tournament in the United States, Canada, and Mexico deserved a halftime performance that matched the scale and ambition of the competition. What viewers received fell far short of expectations. The setlist relied heavily on dated material that lacked the vitality needed to energize a global audience. Performers went through the motions without delivering the passion or innovation that great halftime shows require. The result was a flat, forgettable intermission that did little to enhance the overall World Cup experience.

The Missed Opportunity For Fresh Talent

The halftime show organizers had the chance to introduce the world to emerging stars and current hits. Instead, they played it safe with familiar acts and classic songs that have been performed countless times before. This conservative approach may have appealed to certain demographics, but it left younger viewers and…
