Lighting of Hanukkah candles at the residence of Mayor Eric Adams
New York Mayor Eric Adams treats the Jewish community of New York with respect and attention, understanding how much the community members contribute to the economy, culture and education of the city. As in previous years, the Minor was lit at the mayor's residence. Present: Police Commissioner Edward Caban, Commissioner Jessica Tisch, Deputy Mayor Fabien Levy, Commissioner Fred Kreizman, Commissioner Edward Mermelstein, Pastor Gilford Monros, Senior Advisor Andrea Shapiro Davis, Deputy Chief of Staff Menashe Shapiro, and Chief Counsel to the Mayor Lisa Zornberg. As a representative of the R.Advertising media holding, I am always pleased to see representatives of the Russian-speaking community of New York at events held at the mayor’s residence: famous lawyers Yuri Yaroslavsky, Dmitry Levitsky, Eva Rakhaimova, politicians and businessmen, as well as the President of the Elita Club Leonora Bulychev, representative of the Office of the Auditor Igor Galanter and others. It’s great that the New York City Hall also employs Russian-speaking employees. Also among the guests were family members of Israelis held hostage by Hamas since October 7. Those present held posters depicting their loved ones who have been in captivity for more than two months. Members of the City Council standing on the stage also held posters with photographs of the hostages. “These posters are not just photographs, they are human lives, and we are all waiting with bated breath until they are returned to their family members and loved ones who are here,” Adams said, thanking the families of the hostages for their courage. "Hanukkah tells the story of how light shines in darkness. This wonderful lesson is very important and must be remembered as hate rears its ugly head around the world today. But there is no place for hate in New York, and celebrating Hanukkah shows that no matter who you are, this is where you have equal rights,” the mayor said. "I want to be very clear to you as the mayor of the city of New York. There is no place for anti-Semitism in New York, and there is no place for hate in New York," Adams said to applause from the packed room. Adams condemned the rise of anti-Semitism around the world, and in New York after the October 7 attack, he also made clear that Hamas "must be destroyed." Honorable mentions were given to lawyer and television personality Ebony Williams and Dr. Michael Lomax, president and CEO of the United Negro College Fund. Ebony Williams, a supporter of the Jewish community, opposes anti-Semitism and hatred and promotes unity among blacks and Jews, because. both communities understand not in words, but in reality, what racism and anti-Semitism are... Dr. Michael Lomax, President and CEO of the United Negro College Fund, said, “I am grateful to receive this award, and I know my parents would be proud because they instilled in me the values that underpin a strong belief in that blacks and Jews are allies, brothers and sisters in the battle against the twin evils of anti-Semitism and racism." “The work of Dr. Lomax and Ms. Williams reminds us that we are a city filled with people from every corner of the globe. And no matter our differences, our communities will always come together to help and protect our fellow New Yorkers. It is my pleasure to present the Shine A Light Civil Courage Award to Dr. Michael Lomax and Ebony Williams,” said Eric Adams. Marina Lagunova

Feedback on fortune telling – everything came true!
I never believed in cards before, but after talking to one woman, my opinion changed. She described my current situation very accurately, even though I barely told her anything. I said there would be problems at work, and... three days later, I was told I was being laid off. But she helped me react correctly and even suggested what to do next. I highly recommend her – here's her number: +1 (646) 377-9379.
Professional fortune telling and situational diagnosis
There are situations when simple conversations and advice don't help. Relationships are falling apart, a loved one leaves, money isn't holding up, and there's a constant sense of anxiety and a feeling that everything is going wrong. In such moments, it's important to understand the cause, not just endure. My name is Victoria, a clairvoyant and tarot reader. I help people, both in person and remotely, navigate life's challenges, remove negative influences, and change the situation for the better. I work calmly, without pressure or unnecessary promises. I examine the situation deeply—through fortune-telling and diagnostics—and explain in simple terms what's happening and the best course of action. How I help in practice: - When relationships are falling apart: If a loved one has left, grown cold, or there are constant arguments or outside interference, I help you understand the cause, remove the negative influence, and restore warmth, trust, and feelings. - When life hits a rough patch: If everything seems to be falling apart, you're unlucky, your money isn't holding up, your plans are falling apart, I look for what's blocking your path and help remove the energetic barriers. - When you feel someone else's influence: I work with the evil eye, envy, curses, and heavy energy that has been lingering for years. I cleanse and protect you so the situation doesn't recur. - When you need an honest answer: Through fortune-telling, I reveal what's really going on, what events lie ahead, whether you should wait for a person, change jobs, or make an important decision. - When you're lacking strength and energy: I help with constant fatigue, anxiety, apathy, inner emptiness, when you "don't want anything" and have no inner support. - When your personal destiny isn't working out: I work with loneliness, repeated failures in love, fear of relationships, and help open the way to family happiness. - When protection is needed: I help you close yourself off from envious people, ill-wishers, gossip, and other people's negative interference. Every person and every situation is unique. I tailor the work to your specific needs and never do anything unnecessary. If you feel stuck, write or call, and we'll find a way out together.

I want to share my experience with clairvoyant Rufina. I read a lot of good things about her on forums, so I decided to contact her. I didn't regret it! The Viber reading was so accurate that I was shocked. She not only predicted important events but also immediately gave recommendations on how to improve my current situation. I was especially impressed by her approach to rituals. Rufina conducts them with great soul and faith. She truly visits sacred places, and it's clear that she performs each ritual with love and respect for her work. My problems began to disappear, and I felt my life improving. From now on, I will always turn only to Rufina when I need help. I recommend her to anyone looking for real support and help in difficult situations! Here is her number: +380686790785 WhatsApp/Viber
I turned to Lilya at a time when my husband and I no longer had conversations, hugs, or plans. We simply lived side by side, like strangers. There were betrayals, tears, despair. I didn't know why I woke up in the morning. Lilya became a light for me. She didn't force anything, didn't make false promises. She simply said, "You can still change everything." After a few sessions, the situation began to change. I changed. My husband began to look at me differently. We began to build a home again, not tear it down. Thank you, Lilya. You came at the right time. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (regular call)
