We believe he will a great fit in Troy’s system, and we’re excited to integrate him with the team ahead of the 2025 MLS season.” The Brazilian winger joins D.C.

Catholic Church in Radom stirred up memories and stories for one of the parish’s oldest members Kula was born in the house he has lived in his entire life except for the three years he served in the Navy where they raise beef cattle and grow corn “My grandfather bought the property more than 100 years ago,” Kula said owns it and works it with the help of his son Michael his entire life and attended the grade school from 1939-47 when the School Sisters of Notre Dame taught there the school had a house for boarding students during the week He remembers when the boarding house was destroyed by fire in 1941 “The boarding students stayed in one of the four classrooms after the fire.” He added: “The fire happened in the winter and we had to still go to school the next day We sure had fun ‘skating’ on all the ice.” “He would play baseball with us at the noon hour Kula recalled stories about Sister Jacynpha “I remember to this day Sister Jacynpha telling us to fold our hands facing upward after communion,” Kula said “She would tell us to do this to pray to God and not the devil,” he said Kula’s stories about walking to and from school are not the typical “we walked uphill both ways,” that you often hear told by elderly people his story is about walking the Illinois Central double-railroad tracks 2 1/2 miles to get to school and then to return home “It was dangerous walking the railroad tracks,” Kula said reminding them to not look at the trains when they went by you would get cinders in your eyes from the steam engines “It was definitely a different time back then.” The first time Kula rode the train was with five friends “Being a farmer prepared me for boot camp,” Kula said Kula said he prayed fervently while he in was in the Navy He was very much interested in returning to the farm but the pull of the farm was there,” Kula said “I prayed every night while in the service Kula said if he hadn’t left the Navy when he did They met in 1945 at the bingo stand at the parish picnic at Holy Childhood of Jesus in Mascoutah They were married for 61 years before her death six years ago “Edie was really the answer to my prayers,” Kula said “I thank God for her every morning and every night.” They had seven children and now have 15 grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren Kula enjoyed attending the 150th anniversary celebration of St “The church was the fullest I have seen it in about 20 years,” he said “I shared many conversations during the luncheon.” The estimated attendance at the Mass was 500 The anniversary celebration began with a polka Mass which is a Roman Catholic Mass that uses polka tunes or waltzes instead of traditional hymns Polka Masses are usually held by congregations that consider the polka to be an important part of their ethnic heritage Diocese of Belleville Bishop Michael McGovern concelebrated the Mass with Fr “I’m very pleased and proud to be here with you,” Bishop McGovern told the parishioners thanking them for their “150 years of faith “You have much to be proud of,” he continued “There have been many twists and turns over the years There has been lots of hard work over the years.” Bishop McGovern marveled at the sturdy construction of the church which was built without pillars on the inside “This is one of the most beautiful churches in our diocese,” Bishop McGovern said Photos and artifacts about the history of the church were on display in the basement of the church after the Mass 29 celebration also marked the 100th anniversary of the current church building Photos from the event are

I’ve known Todd for nearly 20 years and am proud to call him a friend  As I prepare to make my exit from Uni Watch it seemed appropriate that I should do one last interview with him I’m happy to say that the resulting piece You can read the first part of the interview here. In order to read the entire thing you’ll need to become a paid subscriber to my Substack (which will also give you full access to my Substack archives) I received a note the other day from longtime reader and UNC uni scholar James Gilbert Before the North Carolina men’s basketball team debuted their Alexander Julian-designed uniforms in the fall of 1991 several drafts of the designs were revealed during TV coverage of the 1990 NCAA Tournament (not the 1991 tournament So I’m putting this request out there to the Uni Watch comm-uni-ty to see if anyone can find that video I think it was part of the Final Four show on Saturday It was a short segment and the sketches were only briefly displayed If anyone has access to this video, you know what to do Oxbow High in Vermont hit the anti-Uni Watch trifecta the other day: BFBS (not a school color) of Oregon’s “O” logo for good measure I will have 17 days remaining at Uni Watch have you already picked a player for every number or do you kind of do it on a whim each morning if you think I have time to think that far ahead while I’m getting ready to hand the site off to Phil prepare for the upcoming anniversary/farewell tour start laying the groundwork for my post-Uni Watch work you definitely have an optimistic view of what life is currently like at Uni Watch HQ #15 – Carlos Beltran or Tim Tebow /jk #10 has got to be Paul’s all-time favorite radio color man Of course I’m referring to Ron Santo Keith said the Mets never had numbers on the front of the jersey before I can’t see anything besides floating numbers I thought they were a VT cow pattern at first I kind of give slack to GI Joke efforts that are this badly executed Not even the cannon-fodder troops the Soviets threw into the forests of Finland in the Winter War of 1939-40 were that poorly camouflaged So it looks less like a “support the troops” message than a “support rare heritage dairy cattle breeds” message to me I found that you can paint the rubber or the plate by cleaning and sanding it a bit priming with Rustoleum Painter’s Touch White Primer then two coats of Rustoleum Painter’s Touch Flat White The last year they had Mets on the road was 1986 the Goodman jersey had a clunky script and I also see no evidence of the 25th anniversary patch The script is a nice looking Rawlings script (which they should try to go back to immediately on the current home jersey) So the pic could be in a range of 1983-1985 Paul, another home run with the Todd interview! You’re not going out with a bang; you’re going out with a mushroom cloud. Not unlike the Richland Bombers… link The first-year Nationals’ uniforms are some of the most underrated in baseball history They did themselves no favors by misspelling the team name a few times a problem that could have been overcome by printing the name with sublimation and stitching the tackle twill over it Just curious on if there have been any of Todd’s designs that you were not a fan of and have told him Or are you more of a friend that keeps your opinions to yourself And except for the Shea Stadium patch (as a Mets fan I loved it I don’t think I’ve ever offered him feedback “Uni Watch is great!” (or words to that effect) I don’t think he’s ever offered feedback on anything I’ve written We’re friends and mutual fans with a lot of mutual respect Those broad themes matter more than the specifics This was the unexpected email message I received from Andrzej Folwarczny, the founder of the NGO I had traveled with to Poland in November 2014. He was referring to a woman named Sharon whose family, like mine, was from the city of Radom. She had also traveled to Poland with the same NGO I did, Forum for Dialogue uncles and cousins had been murdered in Poland during the Holocaust Her father and both my parents survived and immigrated to the United States after the war During that first conversation we realized it was impossible to escape this legacy although Sharon and I had each spent most of our lives trying to break free of it We might have continued to remain merely phone friends and email correspondents except for the coincidence that my husband and I would be traveling to the West Coast a few weeks later staying just 30 miles south of Sharon’s home near San Diego Once home to 100,000 citizens pre-World War II industry and scholarship in the Kielce province roughly a 90-minute drive from Warsaw and Krakow A vibrant Jewish community of 30,000 represented almost one third of the total population then No one in either of our immediate families ever returned to Poland Di Polishe hobn undz kimat ale umgebrakht,” my mother would say The Poles killed almost all of us.) My mother blamed Poles and Nazis equally Those few family members that did survive the Nazi death camps – Auschwitz Buchenwald and Dachau – had done so thanks to skill shared some of his experiences and pain with her; my parents largely remained silent including surviving family members who lived near them in Brooklyn; even to me I suspect they were terrified of once again losing those they loved If Sharon had any emotional scars from growing up as the child of a survivor I was more restrained and an attentive listener I learned about Sharon’s father’s nightmares and anger which led to verbal abuse and violent outbursts he threw plates or whatever might be in easy reach but realizing how she had lived throughout her childhood was astonishing to me So many survivors channeled their pain into anger channeled their anguish into excessive protection and emotional restraint but I never felt fear or danger in their presence Sharon and I met for lunch at La Costa Resort in Carlsbad with beautiful olive skin and a wide smile We hugged as close relatives would and began talking We discovered our families had lived two streets away from each other in Radom before the war When I showed her my iPhone photos of the neighborhood where my family once lived The home of my mother’s family was now boarded up and several heavy support beams on all sides to keep the building from collapsing “My father lived at Szpitalna just across the same square,” Sharon said but there was no mistaking the powerful connection between us I sensed a certain irony in our talking about the harrowing experiences of our survivor parents while we took in the view of the golf course and savored our delicious lunch “My parents would have never eaten in a place like this; they rarely ate out,” I said “My mother used to say: “Never eat out in restaurants; they’re dangerous Who knows what they put into the food?” Sharon nodded and laughed I mentioned that my carry-on bag had been damaged beyond repair “Let’s go look for a new bag; there’s a great little shopping center nearby,” Sharon said The shop was filled with no-name merchandise in black and suitable for International flights.” The clerk went into the back storage area and returned with the perfect black Samsonite For my parents and probably other survivors luggage was no ticket to freedom or joyful new experiences but rather unplanned journeys likely to end in tragedy We drove to Radom and walked the very streets our families once walked community leaders and government officials and a literature teacher Meeting Zbigniew through an NGO called Forum for Dialogue was the beginning of an extraordinary partnership we began restoring the narrative of the Jewish community in Radom Our first collaboration was the Jewish Trail launched with twelve descriptive plaques marking  significant Jewish sites from Radom’s past Included was the site of the Orthodox synagogue helped us plan and co-host almost 70 local officials for the first public Seder in Radom in decades — possibly since the end of the War We returned to Radom days before the Seder in April 2016 The Haggadah we had prepared was printed up beautifully as a blue and white booklet The Seder was held in the dining room of the city’s Jewish community center A huge U-shaped table was covered with white linen tablecloths Flowering branches graced the towering windows At every table setting lay a copy of our Haggadah and an individual Seder plate with the haroseth we had prepared with the chef The cooking staff also made pierogi from scratch and a variety of salads Zbigniew and I greeted everyone with a “chag sameach!” (Hebrew for “Happy holiday!”) I asked how many in the room had ever been to a Seder before which a volunteer then translated into Polish Only our family members raised their hands with several local teachers translating certain passages into Polish connecting generations of people of different faiths through the story of Passover Sharon and I have returned to Radom many times We took part in an annual Jewish culture festival hosted Shabbat dinners and welcomed descendants of the city from France  This past September we vacationed in northern Poland I know my cautious mother is shaking her head somewhere puzzled about my friendship with another daughter of Jews from Radom that she never knew That possibility continues to delight and preoccupy me As for the Samsonite bag I bought at the bargain store is taking me to places I’m no longer afraid to visit I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward American Jews need independent news they can trust At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S rising antisemitism and polarized discourse This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism you rely on See our full guidelines for more information, and this guide for detail about canonical URLs subject line “republish,” with any questions or to let us know what stories you’re picking up Copyright © 2025 The Forward Association Lech Poznań failed to hold onto the two-goal advantage and had to share league points with Radomiak The 2:2 draw was a reason to celebrate for Raków Częstochowa who now have a 2-point advantage over their opponent in the season's final stage Lech Poznań has been performing impressively over the past few weeks They travelled to Radom to face Radomiak after 4 wins in a row Niels Frederiksen’s players already knew that if they wanted to hold onto their position in the league table winning against the opponent from Radom hasn’t been an easy task – ever since they advanced to the top division Lech has failed to defeat Radomiak when playing away The Sunday match couldn’t have begun better for Frederiksen’s squad as they found the back of the net for the first time in the 5th minute Filip Jagiełło spotted Mikael Ishak inside the box and served him a perfect pass which the Swede converted into a goal with a strong shot under the crossbar Lech continued dominating on the pitch following their successful offensive attempt but didn’t create many goal-scoring opportunities when Joel Pereira crossed the ball into the box and Marcho Burch’s poor defensive intervention allowed Jagiełło to head the ball into the back of the net Lech left for the break with a comfortable Lech in the second half looked nothing like the team that scored twice in the first 45 minutes Frederiksen’s squad lost control of the game and struggled a lot with Radomiak’s pressing the hosts didn’t cause problems to Bartosz Mrozek Wojciech Mońka made a costly error and passed the ball to Capita who didn’t hesitate as he fired a strong shot from outside the box at Lech’s goal; the attempt was impossible for Mrozek to stop Radomiak sensed an opportunity to turn the tables and kept pressing Lech Just when it seemed that Lech would manage to hold onto the win Tapsoba took advantage of a miscommunication between Mrozek and Milić We use cookies that are necessary for visitors to our website to take advantage of the services and features available.

accounts on the social network X are circulating a video of a fire in the Polish city of Radom claiming that Ukrainians were allegedly responsible for the incident It is reported that on the night of May 30 a fire supposedly destroyed a large logistics hub in Radom (168 Warszawska Street - ed.) where military goods were stored for delivery to Ukraine The local fire department allegedly reported that more than 6,000 square meters burned down and that the damage to the property exceeded $120 million There was indeed a fire at 168 Warszawska Street in Radom but it was a hardware store with a warehouse not a logistics hub with military equipment the scale of the fire was much smaller than the propagandists claimed A Google Maps search revealed that the area of the store with a warehouse was slightly more than 1,000 square meters confirmed that a warehouse for construction materials is located at that address and that a fire had actually broken out there that day Investigators from the local Criminal Investigation Department are working to determine the circumstances of the emergency and who may have been involved in the incident the police officer clarified that the fire area was not large and that only building materials partially burned The Radom fire department also confirmed the fact of the fire that day they denied that they had reported a fire on an area of 6,000 square meters noting that the fire covered an area of only about 300 square meters pallets of building materials burned in this place and they are not aware of any assistance for Ukraine It can be
