Orthodox?

No, not orthodox. Are they the ones buying $699 hats?

I recall seeing more than a few shtreimel on the streets of Tel Aviv in July along with the heavy wool outfits below the neck. Quite amusing that clothes designed for celebrations in the frigid arctic climates of Russia were now de rigeur in a hot, humid climate.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – The NYPD wants your help finding the person who stole a shtreimel, or fur hat, from a Hasidic man in Brooklyn.

It happened Friday at 6:15 p.m. on the corner of Wallabout Street and Marcy Aveune.

Surveillance video shows a 27-year-old man walking down the street when the suspect runs up behind him, grabs the hat, and runs off. Additional video shows the suspect running with the shtreimel on Walton Avenue near Harrison Avenue.

The hat is valued at $8,000.

One of her customers, a doctor, 66 or 67, kept telling my friend the COVID vaccine was dangerous, don't get it, etc. She stopped by my friend's store for her birthday May 20 with a gift. A week later, she saw on Facebook that the doctor died -- of COVID. Unbelievable. Told my friend that in her memory, go get the fucking shot and she's going to do it. She has no symptoms but is ready to get tested if necessary. Another example of bad advice and poor judgment killing someone unnecessarily and risking others' lives.

Y’all know I’m not a religious woman, but my first thought about this hate-filled woman who seems so confused about why Stetson’s canceling her was May God have mercy on her soul.

Yeah, pretty unfortunate looking. But I do have to say it's a bit impressive is she actually is a milliner. From what I can gather at least some of their hats are hand made and the ones listed in the Seuss line appear to be originals. Samples, testing techniques or new dye colors, whatever, they wind up with one of a kind hats. Making hats by hand isn't the easiest thing to do and it is a dying art. It's a shame she has such an obviously marketable skill and has apparently tossed it out the window because she is a complete idiot. This business doesn't look to be a mom-and-pop hat reseller, but rather an actual hattery.

“One of the alleged offenders was also injured during the incident,” the spokesman said. “In total 55 people were issued penalty notices in relation to breaching CHO directions.”

Fines of $1492 apply to those who break lockdown restrictions."

Rural northern California is seeing a troubling rise in Covid-19 cases and hospitalizations, an alarming trend that comes as residents and businesses continue to protest against safety measures and vaccinations – with one Mendocino cafe threatening to charge customers $5 for wearing a mask.

While the region makes up a small proportion of the state’s population, the growth in its caseload has been considerable, and comes at a time when the state overall is enjoying some of the lowest rates of Covid in the country. After largely avoiding the worst of the pandemic, a block of far northern California counties now leads the state with nearly 40 cases per 100,000 residents over the past week, according to statistics maintained by the Los Angeles Times. Tehama county ranked the highest in the LA Times case ratings with 139 cases per 100,000 residents. Meanwhile 10 of the 21 total Covid deaths in nearby Siskiyou county have occurred since the beginning of May.

The region has long been one of the most forceful in its pushback against measures such as masks, business restrictions and vaccine mandates – and the protests have only continued to gain steam. A cafe in the town of Mendocino made headlines after announcing it will charge customers a $5 fee if they order while wearing a mask. It also threatened to charge $5 to anyone “caught bragging about your vaccine”.

“It’s about time the proponents of these ineffective government measures start paying for the collateral damage they have collectively caused,” the cafe owner Chris Castleman told NBC News. He also offered a 50% discount to customers who threw their masks in the trash.
