11 people in Australia were killed today by gunmen while they celebrated the first night of Chanukah at Sydney’s Bondi Beach. Targeted because they were Jews.
As Jewish families around the world, we place our menorahs in our windows. Our message to the world: Light will outlive the darkness.

In 1937 a dual carriageway was built diagonally across Queen Square, in hopes of lessening Bristol’s traffic woes.
At its peak, 20,000 cars were driven across the park daily,
The road was closed in 1992 and all traces of the carriageway were removed by the end of the millennium.
