A video compilation that includes old footage of floods has been shared online to falsely claim it depicts extreme flooding in Britain on August 26, 2023. No reports from credible outlets were found about floods in Britain that put 78,000 people underwater on Aug. 26. Outlets including the BBC (here) and The Independent (youtu.be/gtJAfA6L5Yk?t=35) featured the video in reports of a flood on August 17, 2022. Reuters could not immediately source the video showing a view of River Taff in Cardiff (goo.gl/maps/AG11itb7Yau98z1j6) (1:06-1:18), but the scene resembles a photograph published by outlet WalesOnline on Jan. 12, 2023 (here) (see photo 21). This montage compiles old clips and does not show extreme flooding in Britain on Aug. 26, 2023.

Richard HolmerLake Forest, Ill.To the Editor:Rabbi David Wolpe’s essay strikes a number of chords, one of which is to affirm the value of affiliating with a house of worship. Faith institutions offer individuals and families the opportunity to be an integral part of a community, sharing times of joy and sadness. Reuven H. TaffSacramentoTo the Editor:Rabbi David Wolpe writes with his usual grace, eloquence and wisdom. Idealistic people who join together in furtherance of social goals often create supportive and nurturing associations. A union can create a sense of community, as can a group like the Masons or a sports club.

She's paid off 75% of her student loans, but must return to school and add up to $15,000 more debt. I've been paying my student loans this entire timeI've never defaulted on my loans, even through the COVID-19 pandemic. One of my student loans was forgiven through the Perkins Loan system after I spent five years in the profession, but that was only $5,000. I could fall back on my husband, since he's wanted to help me pay off my student loans, but it concerns me. Folks believe the hype and the politicization of what it means to take out student loans, but I've been a law-abiding citizen.
