Closing the center now will allow
the board to continue to fund longterm services for the most vulnerable,

In coordination with the Jewish
Federation of Northern New Jersey,

are being made to assure the seamless

Late in July, the Padovers received a letter from Idos parents, thanking them for
their hospitality.
There arent enough words to describe
how grateful we are for your care for Ido
over the past few weeks, Chen and Cheli
Sand wrote. This has been a once-in-alifetime experience for Ido, and we know
he will always cherish the memories he
made with your family.
The Padovers expressed their own
delight in a return note, adding that
Open Hearts is a special program that
helps Israelis and American Jews connect.
We think it makes the world seem a little
smaller and hopefully less scary.
Cindy and Shimi Mendelaw of Hillsdale
have been hosting for 14 years.
We really enjoy it, Ms. Mendelaw
said. She is the programs co-chair, and
this year she and her husband are hosting
three 14-year-old boys: Sagi, Natan, and
Ishaiy. The youngsters two from kibbutzim near Ashkelon and Sderot and
the other from Jerusalem check in
with their parents every day.
Ms. Mendelaw said that because her
husband is Israeli, we have a huge
family in Israel. We go there almost
every year.
In describing the process for selecting Israeli participants, she said, were
always learning, always fine-tuning our
process for selecting kids, usually 13to 15-year-olds. They come from all
different scenarios, she said. We pull
some from the One Family Fund children who have lost family members
or been directly involved in terrorist
attacks; and we pull from the Sderot
area, where children may have come
under intense rocket fire.
The kids come with different
issues, she said, noting that the selection process often targets bright children
who have been recommended by their
teachers and guidance counselors for their
academic achievement. They also may be
strong in English-language skills.
We select those kids because they
will take this experience back with them
and be leaders and mentors to other children, she said. In the last few years, kids
who come here have wanted to mentor
younger children and give them insight
into what they need to do.
Ms. Mendelaw said that Israeli and
American teens have much in common,
a fact that she attributed to the Internet.
She also has realized that some of the
Israeli children come here and smile
but have deep issues, whether because
of rocket bombardment or having a loved
one killed. They dont realize how it
affects them. It saddens me that they have
to live their life like this and carry such a
heavy weight.
She feels that OHOH is effective in
showing them that life can be better.
They can live without fear. It gives them
that opportunity to be teenagers. Its a
reprieve they come and laugh and play

Project-based learning is what learning
used to be. When the Mishna was written, it
was project-based learning. You built a sukkah. Whats a sukkah? You looked at different sukkot. Do they meet the requirements?
Youre basically taking what the jargon
calls driving questions and then talking it
through, arguing it through.
Theres a mishna in Pirkei Avot: I
learned a lot from my teachers, more from
my peers, most from my students. Thats
project-based learning, she said..
Of course, not all students enter the
classroom expecting to participate actively
in their learning. Thats particularly true of
ninth graders, who are new to high school,
Ms. Herzog said.
A lot of times the students are looking
for the right answer, she said. In high
school, there often is no one right answer.
Theres more than one way to solve a problem, more than one way to understand
something. If you try something and its not
working, thats okay. It leads to something
else. It can be as simple as when a student
reads a verse and tries to translate it and it
doesnt make sense so try again.

No agenda, only me
An Englewood native personalizes an issue
a wife and two sons. I was raised in Englewood, a product of a two-parent household with three siblings and three pets.
I attended a local Jewish day school and
spent 18 years embedded in the community, growing friendships and learning
about the world through a modern Orthodox lens.
I am a hard worker, with
four Columbia University
degrees. I am a nurse practitioner and a full-time mother,
putting everything I am into
my childrens day-to-day
lives. I do not have a gay
agenda. Any agenda I do have
is one about working to keep
my relationships healthy and
pushing my often tired self to
do more and learn more, to
live a satisfying life.
Anyone who has met me, if even just
for five minutes, would agree that Im no
activist. Its not a dirty term, it just doesnt
describe me. However, am I intellectually a
proponent of securing more standing and
rights from my own government? Of course
I am. Why wouldnt I be? Does it make me

that is the essence of the grit that we
use to keep our marriages and families
afloat.
There are no sinister specks lurking,
working to bring about the destruction
of American or Jewish values. We too
seek to maintain deep connections to
those traditions and religious institutions that are a part of our history. We
look to marriage and family for solace
and enjoyment, to enrich our lives in the
ways that you do. Or perhaps we dont
seek it. But that is just it. We are you,
and you are us. Overcome your fear and
you will see yourself in us perhaps in
small, inconsequential ways, but we live
a shared existence, a similar life experience. Without agendas, radical ideas,
and strange, foreign lifestyles, we are no
worse, and we are no better than you.
We simply are.
To those people who lead communities, standing at the helm and shaping others ideas, I respectfully say to
you: my thoughts speak to why gay
Jews shouldnt be written about as an
unsavory minority by community leaders. I recommend a careful, respectful
approach when writing about gay Jews,
focusing on ways to strengthen and
uplift the community, rather than on
heaping scorn and shame on those who
are different. Caustic references that
paint us in immoral ways do not serve to
strengthen the reader or better the Jewish community on the whole. They only
weaken and beat us down.

Duma attack, it remains to be seen whether the crackdown lasts, or whether its a passing response to public
outrage that fades once the countrys attention moves
on.
On Sunday, Israels security cabinet approved the use
of administrative detention for Jewish suspects. The
following day, Interior Security Minister Gilad Erdan
announced that the security cabinet also decided that
any method of interrogation used on Palestinians should
be used on Jews.
An interrogation method like tiltul [violent shaking] or anything that is done when it comes to Palestinian terrorists the same thing should be done when it
comes to a Jewish terrorist, Erdan said.
Israeli advocates for Palestinian rights, however, say
harsh interrogations and administrative detention are
deeply problematic methods that shouldnt be used on
anyone Jewish or Arab except in the most extreme
cases, as sanctioned by international law.
Suddenly talking about using measures against settlers that are themselves a violation of due process is
not the way to solve this, said Sarit Michaeli, a BTselem
spokeswoman. You dont add additional human rights
violations.
The problem isnt lack of tools for law enforcement;
its the lack of will to enforce the law against Israeli settlers, she said. There are plenty of legal tools that
havent been applied, like proper police work and regular criminal prosecutions.
After Abu Khdeirs murder last year, three Jews were
apprehended and confessed to the killing. But the case
ushered in no major crackdown on Jewish extremists and
soon was overshadowed by the outbreak of war in Gaza.

1 3/4 cups water
4 medium red beets, tops removed
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
1 cup arugula
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup red onion, sliced thin
1/2 bunch scallions, sliced thin (light green and
white pieces)
1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese
1/4 cup walnuts pieces
Pre-heat the oven to 450-degrees.
Drizzle the beets with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
and wrap the beets loosely in tin foil. Roast for
40-60 minutes until tender. Cool, peel, and dice
the beets into 1/2 inch cube pieces.
Bring 1 3/4 cups water to a boil in a medium

is absorbed. Turn off heat, stir in arugula to let
wilt and let stand for 5 minutes. Set aside.
To make the dressing, whisk together lemon
juice, salt, pepper, and remaining 3 tablespoons
extra virgin olive oil. Add the red onions and let
sit for 30 minutes. Combine couscous, beets,

goat cheese and walnuts and serve at room

Dear Rabbi
Dear Rabbi,
Im a young modern Orthodox woman.
I like to go to the beach in the summer.
Recently some of my friends criticized me
for wearing a bikini at the beach. They say
their rabbis taught them that it is not in
keeping with our religion to wear a bikini
because it is clothing that is not modest. I
see that the prevalent fashion for young and
fit women at the beach or pool is mostly a
bikini. What makes your fellow rabbis think
that they have the authority to dictate to me
and other women what fashions to follow
on the beach or off it?

Ekev: Getting ready

FROM PAGE 28
against you. (7:22) Even if we could suddenly rid ourselves of every bad influence
and habit, the gambit wouldnt work. We
need to populate each newly-claimed
arena in our lives with positive habits
and that takes time. If we leave a vacuum,
wild thoughts and impulses will arise and
rout us, as surely as wild animals will overrun unprotected territory.
To obliterate [the idolators] name
from under the heavens (7:24) is to
destroy their identity and legacy. This,
too, is a hint about how to repent. If you
want to put an end to a sin, stop discussing it and mentally reviewing it. Once you
have completed the steps and strategies of
repentance found in Ekev and elsewhere,
resist telling the story of your sin. Let it
starve for attention and die out.
Ekev reminds us that God gives second
chances. After the Israelites worshipped
a Golden Calf and Moses consequently
destroyed the first set of tablets, God said,
carve for yourself two stone tablets like
the first (10:1). Like our ancestors, we
have invited idolatry into our midst. God
tells us, turn a new page in the Book of
Life. Repentance is possible ekev tishmeun, if only we will listen to the lessons
of Parashat Ekev.

later stage, provide testimony about the
incident to the police, Yesh Din said in a
report in May.
For their part, figures associated with
Israels extreme right are questioning
authorities assumption that Jews were
behind the attack in Duma. They also are
complaining about what they say is outsized attention devoted to Jewish-perpetrated violence, when the vast majority of
violence in the West Bank is perpetrated
by Arabs against Jews.
If only a thousandth of what theyre
doing against Jews they would do against
the Arab terrorists, Michael Ben-Ari, a
former Knesset member from the National
Union party and a self-identified follower
of Kahanes ideology, told Arutz Sheva, a
right-wing news service.
Netanyahu sounded a similar note on
Tuesday, decrying the absence of international outcry over a firebombing attack on
Monday night against a Jewish couple as
they drove through an Arab neighborhood
of Jerusalem.
Several days ago the international community joined in my condemnation of terrorism directed against Arabs, and I expect
that they will similarly join in vis-a-vis terrorism directed against Jews, Netanyahu
said. I am still waiting. JTA WIRE SERVICE

Basya Schechter, the cantor at the Fire Island Synagogue, performs in Central Park in 2013.
Schechter was a perfect fit for the welcoming, tight-knit community. About 150 families make up the congregation. For many
of them, the Fire Island Synagogue is the
only congregation to which they belong;
its the nucleus of their spiritual and communal lives. Its where most of the families
spend the High Holidays, and where their
children celebrate their bar/bat mitzvahs.
Like the Fire Island community at
large, many members of the synagogue
have been summering on the island for
generations.

Dementia expert
to speak at
Brightview Tenafly
Brightview Tenafly, a senior living community in
Tenafly, will host an educational seminar with dementia expert Dr. Patrick Doyle on Wednesday, August 19,
at 6 p.m.
Id like to engage attendees in a unique, stimulating, and meaningful discussion about the best ways to
interact with people living with dementia, explained
Dr. Doyle, Brightviews corporate director of dementia care. The discussion will challenge the conventional wisdom related to dementia.
The free seminar titled Remembering the Past
and Respecting the Present: A Recipe for Successful
Interactions with People Living with Dementia is
for families, friends, and caregivers. It will be held at
Brightview Tenafly, at 55 Hudson Avenue.
My goal is to have people walk away from Brightview Tenafly with the tools to address some challenges associated with dementia and identify the possibilities that still exist, said Dr. Doyle.
Brightview Tenafly features Assisted Living apartment homes and a Wellspring Village neighborhood
dedicated to dementia and Alzheimers care.
To learn more about the seminar at Brightview
Tenafly or to RSVP, please call Sherry at 201-510-2060.
