Saul Zabar, longtime lox-smith of iconic Upper West Side grocer, dead at 97

 Saul Zabar, who ruled the iconic Upper West Side grocery store bearing his name for more than seven decades, died Tuesday. He was 97.

The so-called lox-smith had been hospitalized with a brain bleed at the time of his death, The Post confirmed.

“A true New York legend. He gave the city lox, love, and a place to argue over babka. Zabar’s isn’t just a store, it’s a slice of NYC soul. May his memory be a blessing,” Mayor Eric Adams posted on X.

The Manhattanite ran his family’s namesake Broadway grocery for nearly the entirety of its 80-year history — and was famously a stickler when it came to the quality of the famed store’s goods.

He fulfilled a role he had never initially intended to take on.

Saul had been studying at the University of Kansas to become a doctor when his father, Louis, suddenly died in 1950 at the age of 49, forcing him to return to the city to help his mother, Lillian, run the family business.

He never left.

Three shipwrecks from biblical times uncovered off the coast of Israel

Some of the finds of a cargo from the Iron Age retrieved in the Dor Lagoon in northern Israel, in a discovery announced in August 2025: a) iron blooms; b) basket-handle amphora base containing resin; c) basket-handle

amphora handles; d) a basket-handle amphora base containing grape seeds

The remains of three shipwrecks and their cargoes from the Iron Age (1200-586 BCE) have been retrieved in the ancient harbor of Dor, on the Carmel Coast in northern Israel, according to an academic paper recently published by the prestigious journal Antiquity. The discovery marks the first time shipwrecks from those times have been uncovered in Israeli waters.

The Iron Age, also known as the First Temple Period, encompasses the centuries during which a significant portion of the events described in the Hebrew Bible are said to have occurred. At least for part of the time, in the 9th and 8th centuries BCE, Dor was likely under the rule of the Kingdom of Israel.

While almost nothing of the actual ships has survived, the remains of their cargoes, dating to the 11th, 9th, and 7th/6th centuries BCE, provide important insights into the trade routes of a crucial period in the region’s history. Among other things, the findings challenge the long-held belief among many scholars that little commerce took place under the biblical kingdoms.

In addition, shipwrecks from the Iron Age are extremely rare, with only 11 such finds ever recorded in the whole Mediterranean basin.

NY Times covering up Biden-appointed Jack Smith spying on Republican senators

 

Leftist media outlets never tire of preaching that the great lesson of Watergate is that the cover-up is worse than the crime. 

Fair enough, but the lesson would be more credible if those same outlets followed their own advice.

Yet the leader of the leftist pack, The New York Times, proved again Tuesday it is engaged in a massive cover-up of its own. 

The evidence is that the paper failed to report what was arguably the biggest news Monday out of Washington:

 that Jack Smith, the head-hunting special counsel appointed by Joe Biden’s administration to prosecute Donald Trump, also teamed up with the FBI to spy on nearly a dozen Republican senators. 

Thankfully under new management, the FBI blew the whistle on itself, with Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino revealing that Smith and a team of agents investigating the Capitol riot of Jan. 6, 2021, were tracking the communications and phone calls of Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Josh Hawley of Missouri, Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, Tommy Tuberville of Alabama and others. 

Patel and Bongino said some of the agents involved in the improper snooping have been fired and the two are continuing to probe the affair.

Greta’s post-jail video tries to rewrite the flotilla story

 

Greta Thunberg dropped a new video after being deported from Israel, filming in Athens and pivoting the spotlight to Gaza rather than her short detention. At the airport she told supporters, “I could talk for a very long time about the abuse in prison, but that’s not the story,” before blasting governments for “failing” Palestinians. 

Here are the facts: the Israeli Navy intercepted the Global Sumud flotilla as it tried to breach the lawful naval blockade of Gaza. Authorities detained roughly 479 activists and have been deporting them in batches; 170+—including Thunberg—were flown to Greece and Slovakia, with 161 landing in Athens. Israel says detainees received food, water, access to counsel, and that abuse claims are false.

The dramatic “we’re being kidnapped” clip circulating from Thunberg was recorded in advance to auto-publish if the boat was boarded, and Israeli outlets flagged it as misleading. Israel’s Foreign Ministry released photos of her smiling in transit and said all activists were “safe and healthy.” That context didn’t make her video.  

This episode isn’t about celebrity martyrdom. It’s about a flotilla with political aims, intercepted without mass casualties, followed by orderly deportations—and a narrative fight playing out on social feeds. Expect more removal flights and continued enforcement at sea, while Israel flatly rejects the abuse storyline.

Cops desperately try to save Julia Eibinder 24 of Miami, from her burning Tesla... but weren't able to rescue her in time

A Florida woman has died after being trapped in her burning Tesla after a crash on a highway.

Julie Eibinder, 24, was driving along a six-lane road in North Miami Beach last week when she was cut off by an SUV driver traveling in the same direction.

The vehicles collided before Eibinder's Tesla struck a pole and erupted into flames, WTVJ reports.

Bodycam camera video shows how officers ran towards the wreck and tried to control the blaze until rescuers arrived.

An officer beat on the rear windows with a baton, trying to break the glass, while another used a fire extinguisher.

When firefighters arrived on scene, the Tesla was completely engulfed in flames.

Crews managed to put out the fire but by that point, Eibinder was already dead.

At least two people riding in the SUV were injured in the crash and taken to a nearby hospital for treatment, according to WPLG.

The crash happened last Wednesday near the intersection of Northeast 163rd Street and 28th Avenue.

Police were shouting 'get back' at bystanders as they tried to control the blaze, one witness recalled.

Another told WSVN: 'There was a loud pop and a bunch of pieces flew off the car. I heard someone on the phone say, "There's someone in there". I felt it inside after that.'

Witnesses say three people were in the SUV at the time of the crash, two of whom were rushed to the hospital.

Officials have not provided an update on their conditions, but one of the injured was seemingly alert and speaking with paramedics as she was loaded into the ambulance.

Police also have not yet identified the driver accused of cutting Eibinder off or announced if they will face any charges.

Eibinder was an active member of south Florida's Jewish community and has been hailed by her rabbi as 'the heart and soul of our young professionals community'.

Rabbi Alexander Kaller, of the Chabad Russian Center, described her as a 'young, beautiful woman' who was passionate about her faith.

She was very, very positive. She was always smiling. She was the kind of person that would walk into the room, and the mood would change,' he recalled.

Eibinder worked at a Jewish Community Center in Miami Beach. She also recently started her own party planning business.

Community members gathered together in both Sunny Isles Beach and Miami Beach on Monday to mourn her death, WPLG reports.

A small makeshift memorial was established at the crash site, with loved ones laying flowers, cards and other memorial in her honor.

Eibinder's synagogue has also created a memorial fund. Donations will go to her family in attempt to help 'ease the burden of this great loss'.

Bari Weiss faces a ‘snake pit’ as she eyes overhaul of left-leaning CBS News

 Bari Weiss — the 41-year-old “it girl” journalist who just became CBS News’ editor in chief — faces a “snake pit” as she looks to reshape the left-leaning network, sources told The Post.

Paramount Skydance boss David Ellison said Monday that he wants to restore “balance” to CBS News and its marquee shows — “60 Minutes,” “Face The Nation” and “CBS Sunday Morning” as he confirmed his hire of Weiss and the $150 million acquisition of her scrappy news site, The Free Press.

But current and former CBS News insiders said Weiss, known for her contrarian salvos against the media establishment, will face a dug-in newsroom culture that has grown used to ignoring turnaround executives — and eventually reasserting itself once they’re gone.
