But Yisroel Dovid Weiss is no rabbi, though he holds that title as head of the Neturei Karta sect in Monsey, Rockland County. He disgraced his position, family, people and all humanity when he rubbed shoulders with the likes of David Duke and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad at the president’s Holocaust denial conference.

New York - Across the state, prices for a gallon of milk will rise by next week, said a spokeswoman for the state Department of Agriculture and Markets.

The federal Milk Marketing Administrators’ office sets the price paid to farmers for fluid milk a month ahead of time, and that amount is going up because of higher demand for a number of dairy products, mostly cheese, in the past few months coupled with a poor harvest of feed crops in the West that has lowered supplies of raw milk, agriculture officials said.

New York’s law against milk price gouging requires the state agriculture department to set a “threshold” price for milk, roughly 200 percent of the wholesale price. That means consumer prices also go up.

Los Angeles, CA - The sheriff’s deputy who arrested Mel Gibson for drunken driving six months ago says his superiors have harassed him ever since a report detailing the star’s anti-Semitic tirade was leaked to the media.

Deputy James Mee was transferred to another assignment and interrogated by sheriff’s officials about the arrest for several hours, his attorney said. Following his transfer, investigators seized a computer and phone records during a search of his home.
“I disagree with the assessment that personnel in the department or at the station have been relating to him or supervising him in an unfair manner,” said Neal Tyler, a division chief. Tyler denied Mee was being singled out and said he didn’t know of any problems with Mee’s treatment. He declined to discuss Mee’s specific complaints because of confidentiality rules.
