Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Chairs and menorah in front of the ehal (cabinet in which the Torah scrolls are kept) at Kehila Kedosha Janina. While the presence of this new metal seven-branched menorah as a light stand is meant to recall the Temple in Jerusalem, it is the ner tamid (eternal light) in front the ehal that is the actual symbol of the ever-burning menorah of the Tabernacle and Temple, first made by the artist Bezalel and described in the Book of Exodus.
