Announcing Jew in the City’s 2015 Orthodox Jewish All Stars!!  

Baroness Rosalind Altmann, U.K. minister of pensions; Ahmed Zayat, owner of American Pharoah, the first Triple Crown-winning thoroughbred racehorse in thirty-seven years; and Ilana Wernick, Emmy winning co-executive producer of the hit TV series Modern Family, are among 10 individuals who have been named 2015 Orthodox Jewish All- Stars by Jew in the City, the organization dedicated to re-branding Orthodox Judaism to the world through digital media.

This diverse and accomplished group also includes Jeremy England, a 33- year- old physicist and professor at MIT who some in the scientific community refer to as ‘the next Darwin’ on account of his brilliant mathematical theories and explanations of the origins of life; Lawrence Burian, general counsel, secretary, and executive vice president for The Madison Square Garden Company;  Zahava Reisman, founder of Sarah Chloe Jewelry, who has built a devoted following of the Hollywood elite in six short years; Gregory Zuckerman, an award-winning business reporter for the Wall Street Journal; Gail Hoffman, the treasurer of Columbia University; Norm Eisen, who served as the United States Ambassador to the Czech Republic from 2011-2014; and Rabbi Elimelech Goldberg, a 2014 CNN Hero who created Kids Kicking Cancer (in which he combines therapy and martial arts to help children fighting disease).

Record Fertilizer Prices Drive Investors, Farmers to Microbes via /r/Agriculture https://ift.tt/7Y1XUGk

Nice piece in the Wall Street Journal on efforts to reduce dependence on chemical fertilizer inputs with biological ones. However, there is no mention of the potential risks of introducing unregulated organisms into the environment. 

TheWall Street Journal featured our W. & A.K. Johnston/ Kittinger 30-inch Floor Globe in the article “The Gentleman Cave: How to Create a Tastefully Macho Room.” (Photo and text from the article shown above.) This huge globe — on a bold, impressively carved stand — makes a major statement in a library, entrance hall, or executive office. The one in the article was quickly put on hold, but we have another impressive 30-inch globe from the same period, discounted through 7/15/18 to $27,500 (pictures and description available upon request).
