The "10" Edition
Dear Readers,
Here are 10 quick links for the 10 Days of Awe, the days that span the two holiest and important holidays in the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. The 10 days are meant to be a period of reflection, consideration, and atonement, as we seek to ask forgiveness for anyone (including God) that we have wronged.
More next week — more about what’s been happening and more news for and about women: Politics, Business, Health, Pop Culture, The Arts, Sports, and more. Enjoy.

May we all be inscribed in The Book of Life by this time next week—
Lauren
