*Submitted PSA: Don’t Fall For Official-Looking Filing Notice*
A Jackson business owner is urging fellow LLC owners to read mailed filing notices carefully after nearly paying $175 for a service he says he did not need.
“It looked legitimate, and I almost paid it, but I recalled completing this filing online months ago for $78,” the reader told TLS.
The mailing is headed “2026 Annual Registration Instruction Form” and “FINAL NOTICE,” with a New Jersey outline and a request to respond by November 20. But the fine print identifies Next Step Filings as a commercial filing service, not a government agency, and says owners can file directly with the state for $75.

*Local Resident Challenges Lakewood Busing Denials, Demands Answers On School Debt*
Aaron Hirsch says he has filed a petition with New Jersey’s Commissioner of Education challenging the denial of hazardous-route busing for Lakewood nonpublic-school children and demanding answers about the district’s mounting debt under State oversight.
In a release sent to TLS, Hirsch said the November 12 appeal names the Lakewood Board of Education and State Fiscal Monitor Louise B. Davis. He is seeking to overturn two busing denials, provide public- and nonpublic-school students transportation on equal terms, reimburse his busing fees, and require a fiscal plan and quarterly Board training.
Hirsch alleges the district buses approximately 1,173 non-mandated public-school students along police-designated hazardous roads, at a cost of roughly $211,500 annually, while nonpublic families pay $675 per child. He says Davis denied the same transportation for nonpublic children on September 23 and October 27, citing insufficient funding.

*Why Did Yakov Have To ‘Trick’ Yitzchok? | R’ Sender Kaszirer*
In this week’s parsha we read of Yitzchok and Rivka and the birth of Yakov and Eisav. The Torah tells us that although Eisav was a rasha, Yitzchok had a special liking towards him. Rivka, on the other hand loved Yakov.
The Torah relates, when Yitzchok got older he lost his eyesight and wanted to grant Eisav a special bracha. He called him and instructed him to prepare a special meal for him and then he will bentch him with many blessings.
Rivka had overheard the conversation, she quickly called Yakov and got him to wear Eisav’s clothing and pretend he is Eisav, this way Yakov can receive the brachos that were intended for his twin brother.

*Letter: Please Make That Call*
I’m writing as a friend of someone affected by the fire in Lakewood earlier this week.
Families literally lost everything, with very limited insurance covering only a small part of what they lost. It is heartbreaking to think about the task of starting over.
This letter is not about judging anyone. The families deserve our sensitivity and support. I am writing because I hope someone reading this will make a phone call before facing a similar situation.

*PHOTO: Lakewood Family Shares Chilling Mezuzah Discovery After Rav’s Urgent Call*
A Lakewood family shared a chilling account with TLS after a Rav urged them to check their mezuzos just days before their father was scheduled to undergo major surgery.
The family, who asked to remain anonymous, said their father had suffered a serious fall several weeks earlier, severely injuring his neck. Doctors advised him to wear a neck brace for approximately eight to twelve weeks, hoping the fracture would heal without surgery.
“Wearing the neck brace was an extremely difficult and uncomfortable experience for my father,” a family member told TLS. “Nevertheless, we remained hopeful that, with siyata d’Shmaya, he would recover without needing surgery.”
