David Markovich – 5K for Transverse Myelitis
My name is David Markovich. Four months ago, the world seemed to freeze. I suddenly woke up paralyzed from the waist down. I would soon be diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis, an extremely rare neurological condition causing inflammation of the spinal cord. Today, with… God’s help, I am walking on my own two feet again, without any assistance. On October 18th, I plan to run the Baltimore 5K (as part of the Baltimore Running Festival) in honor of all of those fighting Transverse Myelitis.

Keith Winebrenner is sworn in as Beachwood’s new chief of police
(Cleveland.com)
For the first time in 17 years the city has sworn in a new chief of police.
Commander Keith A. Winebrenner, who had been serving as acting chief since March when former chief Mark Sechrist retired, officially took the helm of the 44-officer department at Monday’s City Council meeting. Sechrist had been with the department for 37 years.
From Suspicion to Bracha (Blessing)
(Hakhel)
Chazal (Brachos 31B) teach that if someone suspects another (choshaid b’chaveiro) and the suspicion is untrue–then he must give a bracha to that person. We learn this from the suspicion that Eli Hakohein had that Chana was drunk. Because it turned out that the suspicion was unfounded, he gave her a great blessing “V’Elokei Yisrael Yitein Es She’ailaseich–may Hashem grant your request to have a child.”
We should not, of course, suspect anyone of anything. However, if the suspicion that ‘You lost this’, ‘You spilled that’, ‘You caused this’, ‘You said that’ comes up, we should follow Chazal’s directive and give a heart filled and heartfelt bracha–and may it be fulfilled!

Jewish Federation Community Planning Calendar – Next Training Session Wed., September 3rd
For many years, the Jewish Federation of Cleveland has maintained a Community Planning Calendar that has helped community organizations coordinate schedules so that major community events/meetings were not planned in conflict with each other. Historically, in order to check dates on the calendar, an organization needed to contact Federation and would then be sent a printout for the dates in question. To add an event, an organization needed to e-mail Federation with the details and we would then add the information. This was a time-consuming process that sometimes could take several days. We are now able to offer a more efficient method, as we have moved the Planning Calendar to a web based platform that allows organizations to view the calendar for themselves via the internet and to enter/edit events directly.
