Every week, I'll be posting links to I've written on the Times Newsweekly website, which presently is updated one week after the newspaper hits newsstands. Here's the rundown of what was in the Jan. 15 issue:

Police picked up a Ridgewood man moments after he allegedly held up a video game store a few blocks from his home.

Owners of a yeshiva in Glendale submitted plans to the NYC Department of Buildings to erect a dormitory for up to 700 students.

Teen robbers go on a rampage at Elmhurst store and rough up the shopkeeper and his wife (but police would catch them shortly thereafter).

Detectives find number of high-powered firearms and ammunition inside Ridgewood home, leading to two arrests.

The NYC Department of Education moves to add a grade to a Long Island City secondary school.

The Diocese of Brooklyn and Queens announced the impending closure of Astoria's Most Precious Blood School due to financial difficulties and an overall need for expensive repairs.

Prosecutors charge an alleged police impersonator with sexually assaulting a woman in Bushwick.

A local NYC Council member urges nonprofits to apply for discretionary funds for the 2016 fiscal year.

Our editorial, which I worked on with our publisher, decries the absence of major U.S. officials from the Paris rally following the Charlie Hebdo terrorist attacks.

And our Old Timer column, which features neighborhood history, depicts how Ridgewood's first residents found water in the area, and the movement to build the Ridgewood Reservoir and Brooklyn's first reliable water system.

Please feel free to check it all out and offer some feedback. It's always welcome!
