The Chanukah Legend And Modern Miracle
By DVORA WAYSMAN
(WZPS) Chanukah, known as the Festival of
Lights, or more correctly the Festival of
Dedication, is the only important Jewish festival
that is not mentioned in the Bible. The story is re-
counted in the First and Second Books of the Mac-
cabees, which form part of the Apocrypha. It oc-
curs each year on the Hebrew date of 25th Kislev,
with candles being lit each night for eight days as a
symbol of the miracle which occurred in 165 BCE.
The story is well-known: Chanukah com-
memorates the victory of Judah the Maccabee and
his tiny band of loyal followers over the forces of
the Syrian king Antiochus, who tried to subdue
Palestine by wiping out the Jewish religion. The
Greek language, gods and customs were introduc-
ed and giant sports stadiums built; the temple was
defiled and a giant statue of the Greek god Zeus
wasplaced there, with the Jews ordered to worship
it. When Judah the Maccabee's army triumphed
and he re-established an independent Jewish
government, his first priority was to purify the
The miracle of Chanukah is acknowledged as be-
ing that of the cruse of oil. There was just once
cruse of pure oil left in the Temple, but instead of
burning for just one day, as it was meant to do, it
burnt for eight days until the Jews had time to ac-
quire more. It was also something of a miracle for
such a small army to have been victorious against
great battalions, but we are not told that it was due
to any supernatural phenomena. It was not a
miracle in the sense of other Biblical miracles ...
the partin gof the sea in the crucial moment after
the Exodus from Egypt; the staying of the sun in
the days of Joshua; or when the great walls of
Jericho came tumbling down at the blast of a
trumpet. The Jewish victory in the Chanukah story
was evidently due (as in the modern Six-Day War)
to superior military tactics and strategy, and a
strong motivation on the part of the Jews that their
ancestral faith should survive.
Nevertheless, the victory of the Maccabees ap-
pears to be the visible and perceptible enactment of
God's will. The festival possesses human
significance and is far more than a Jewish national
celebration it is a festival of liberty which
glorifies the right of freedom of worship for all
This fight for the right to practice Judaism did
not vanish with King Antiochus. The Jews of the
Soviet Union are still denied this right, and
"refuseniks" continue to dwell in the darkness of
oppression. Similarly, Syrian and Ethiopian Jews
long for the right to worship without fear of
reprisal and the right to make aliya to Israel.
The true relevance of the Festival of Lights can
be felt in Israel, particularly in Jerusalem where
the events of the Chanukah story took place more
than 2,000 years ago. In Israel, one's loyalty is not
divided, and there is nothing to compete with our
own national and religious holidays. Almost every
Jerusalem home is bedecked with a Chanukah
menorah during the eight days of the festival, and
each evening the little candles are a beacon of light
as voices all over the city sing Maoz Tsur.
The miracle we are proclaiming is not an act of
supernatural grace. Our miracle is that the Jewish
people and the State of Israel continue to survive,
and that our Light will never be extinguished.
On the Rock:
Gibraltar Jewish Piety And Secular Worldliness
By DAVID LANDAU
As in most synagogues, the
gossip in Nefutsot Yehudah
centers on whether the man
sitting in the front row will run
for office yet again.
But in Nefutsot Yehudah,
the office in question is not
gabbai (or parnas,(as it is call-
ed there), but of chief minister
of the government.
An Israeli reporter recently
visiting was reluctant to
trespass on the special Sab-
bath ambience by asking Sir
Joshua Hassan straight out
about his plans. Next morning,
however, at the delectable
Jewish patisserie around the
corner, the reporter seemed to
have his answer.
The chief minister, dapper in
Sunday cravatte and tweeds,
amiably kissed each of the
shop girls as they wrapped his
bread and cakes. A bodyguard,
dour and discreet, followed
him out.
But Gibraltar's politics are
apparently not so easily
deciphered. The shop girls,
Suite unflustered, made it
lear to the newsman that they
expect the weekly kisses to
continue whether or not Sir
Joshua decides to prolong his
30-year rule over this rock.
They simply like him.
Everybody seems to like
everybody in Gibraltar, which
makes it such a pleasant place
to visit and to live on, too,
despite it tininess, 2.1 miles in
area and 1,3% feet high.
On Shabbat morning, after
services have ended at the four
synagogues and the youth mi-
nyan at the Jewish school, the
entire Jewish community
(about 600 souls) seem to be
out on Main Street, strolling
and exchanging smiles and
small talk with their non-
Jewish friends. About 30,000
people live on the rock.
At the Convent, the official
residence of the British gover-
nor, they may pause to inspect
the solitary guard, marching
up and down in his mirror-
polished boots. Rachel
Benisso. whose husband
Abraham is a cantor famous
throughout the Sephardi
world, remembers when her
son Isaac was in the army (the
Gibraltar Regiment) and took
his turn to stand guard there.
She would bring him a pot of
steaming hamim (cholent) to
the guard room across the
Gibraltar is unique in many
ways. A last bastion, literally
and metaphorically, of the
British Empire, the British
fleet and army still stand
guard there over the entrace
to the Mediterranean Sea. On
Main Street, Marks and
Spencer and British Home
Store ensure that this corner
of the continent shall be
forever England.
This doesn't stop housewives
from hopping across the
border to La Linea, Spain for
shopping, and rich men's
yachts ply casually from
Gibraltar s fine marina to the
jet-set playground of Marbella,
on Spain's southern coast. But
political relations are still
sometimes tense, and the
Gibraltarians are fierce in
their allegiance to London.
For the Jewish traveler min-
ing the famous cities of
southern Spain in search of the
Golden Age, Gibraltar's uni-
queness lies in the special at-
mosphere of coexistence of
which the Jewish com muni ty is
so proud, and in which it has
flourished for centuries.
A visit to Cordoba, bir-
thplace of Maimonides; to
Seville, with its massive
cathedral; and to the Alham-
bra in Granada is a feast for
the eye, but a strain on the im-
agination. The remarkable
rivalry and interplay of the
Moorish and Catholic cultures
in Spain are clear to see in
the architecture, in the
gardens and museums. But of
the great flowering of Jewish
life, so fully reported in extant
literature, almost nothing
tangible remains.
The great Alhambra itself,
the guidebook tells us, was
originally built by a Jewish
minister as his own place. Cen-
turies later, King Ferdinand
and Queen Isabella, the
Catholic monarchs who drove
out the Moslem Moors, sat in
the breathtakingly beautiful
building and turned a deaf ear
to Don Isac Abardanel's pleas.
He and his whole Jewish
community were banished
from the laand and the society
in which they and their
forbearers had been totally in-
tegrated culturally,
economically, politically. Yet,
they had totally preserved
their own identity as Jews.
This fusion was probably uni-
que in the Diaspora ex-
perience. Even in America to-
day it is arguably not yet
Wandering through the
Juderia (Jewish section) of
Seville or the single surviving
and unused synagogue in Cor-
doba, it is hard to conjure up
those centuries of Jewish
vitality and mutually enriching
coexistence with the wider
Gibraltar, in its own tiny
way, can help. Not just
because the popular chief
minister happens to be Jewish,
or the mayor, or the head of
the bar, or the chairman of the
chamber of commerce.
But also because the Jewish
shops on Main Street are all
closed on the Sabbath and
festivals, and that seems
perfectly natural to everyone.
Because the Israel flag flies
from the honorary consul's of-
fice from sunset Friday to
nightfall Saturday. Because
the Catholic archbishop at-
tends a brit milah and the
governor attends synagogue
on Hanukkah.
Because in order to ascer-
tain the extend of the erui
(area in which it is permissible
to carry during the Sabbath),
the visitor need only ask In-
spector Moses Benggio of the
Gibraltar Police, whom he will
encounter in the kosher goods
shop, just opposite the

ment from the local ter-

Curacao Charm and Jewish Community
The Mikve Israel-Emanuel
Synagogue in Willemstad
Curacao, the oldest
continually-operated house of
worship in the Western
Hemisphere, will be the focal
point of January's Curacao
Caribbean Jewish Festival, a
unique program honoring
Curacao's 300-year-old Jewish
community as a haven offering
religious freedom.
Dedicated in 1732, the tem-
ple is one of Curacao's most
popular attractions. The struc-
ture has an exterior reminis-
cent of Amsterdam's Por-
tuguese Synagogue and an in-
terior rich with mahogany
wood, brass candeliers, and a
sand-carpeted floor.
Interesting legends and
theories account for the use of
the sand:
Symbolically, the sand
represents the Sinai Desert in
which the Jews sojourned
enroute to the Promised Land.
The interior of the Synagogue
is patterned after an ancient
Israeli encampment with the
Tabernacle in the center and
the Israelites encamped on the
Some prefer to think the
sand represents a blessing to
the patriarchs which declared
that their descendants would
be as numerous "as sand
which is upon the seashore."
A historical version of the
sands' use follows the premise
that the ancestors of its
original members fled to the
Curacao temple from Spain
and Portugal, placing sand on
the floors of their secret
synagogues to muffle the
sounds of prayer.
From a more practical stand-
point, the thick layer of sand
served as a carpet to cover the
hollow, woodenplank floor to
minimize the sounds of
footsteps during the service.
Those footsteps resound
nonetheless, "Today, when
religious intolerance and
fanaticism dominate so much
of the news, we felt it was im-
portant to honor the people of
Curacao and the Netherlands
who have made such historic
contributions to upholding
respect for all peoples, and, in
particular, the Jewish people,"
says Rabbi Marc Tannnebaum,
director of International Rela-
tions, American Jewish Com-
mittee, on the meaning of the
Curacao Jewish Festival.
The Curacao Jewish Carib-
bean Festival, running from
January 3 to 21, centers
around the origins of the
Mikve Israel-Emanuel
Synagogue and offers visitors
the opportunity to participate
in a cultural experience while
vacationing in Caribbean
According to Tannenbaum,
the reason that Curacao's
Jews have thrived both
materially and spiritually was
that in 1652 Curacao adopted
the earliest known charter
guaranteeing religious liberty
for Jews and other minorities
in the New World.
He adds that the Dutch
leaders on this Caribbean
island were simply following
the precedent of the
Netherlands motherland,
which, in 1579, became the
first country in Europe to
establish religious tolerance as
a way of life.
Visitors to the Curacao
Jewish Festival will ex-
perience cultural and spiritual
enrichment as well as the
island's beautiful vacation
facilities and amenities
Because it is just 20 miles off
the coat of South America,
Curacao enjoys a sun-drenched
climate tempered by the
prevailing tradewinds, white
beaches and warm, tranquil
waters for swimming, fishing
and scuba diving.
Curacao is the largest of the
Netherland Antilles, a 38-mile
tropical resort reflecting the
traditions of its Dutch origins,
offering the vacationer diverse
culture, restaurants, enter-
tainment, water and land
sports, and shopping.
Curacao's Caribbean Jewish
Festival, a series of events
centered around the origins of
Mikve Israel-Emanuel
Synagogue, taking place bet-
ween Jan. 3-21,1988, has been
organized by the Curacao
Tourist Board in cooperation
with the island's Jewish com-
munity, the philanthropic Bnai
Zion organization and
American Airlines.
Immaculate streets lined with colorful
narrow-gabled, Dutch-style structures add to
the unique storybook texture of Willemstad,
capital of Curacao, home of the Curacao
Caribbean Jewish Festival, which celebrates
one of the oldest Jewish communities in the
Western Hemisphere the first three weeks in
January, 1988.

Rededication to Freedom
Chanukah the Festival of Rededication
the Festival of Lights.
As we prepared to kindle the first light of
Chanukah Tuesday night, the story of the
victory of the ancient Maccabees had never
been more relevant.
The ongoing plight of Soviet, Ethiopian,
Syrian, Iracri and other Jews reminds us that
we must redouble our efforts on their behalf.
At the same time, we note with pride that
this is the 40th year in which Chanukah
lights are kindled in a free State of Israel.
And it is the 21st year in which the
Chanukah Menorah at the Kotel, the
Western Wall, is lit in a reunited Jerusalem.
Therefore we rejoice in the freedoms that
we enjoy in this country, in Israel and in
many nations, but vow to either extend
those freedoms to those lands in which Jews
are second- or even third-class citizens, or to
see that they are permitted to leave.

Terrorism in Gaza
The sudden upsurge in violence in the
Gaza Strip warrants an immediate review of
Israeli policy towards the narrow piece of
territory along the Mediterranean which has
been the scene of warfare for the past 3,500
Unlike Judea and Samaria or the West
Bank, Gaza has no demonstrable link to
Jewish sovereignty. Part of the British man-
date over Palestine for 31 years, Gaza was
occupied by Egypt in 1948. During 29 years
of Egyptian occupation, interrupted for a
few months by the Sinai Campaign when
Israel seized the territory, Cairo made no
move to incorporate Gaza into its
It has been more than 20 years since Israel
won the 26-mile long strip in the Six Day
War, and Gaza has done little to make its oc-
cupation worthwhile during the two
decades. Hundreds of thousands of Palesti-
nians, ignored and neglected by their Arab
neighbors, make Gaza more of a tinder box
than Israel needs.
While there is ambivalence toward
American Jewry dictating resolutions and
while the solution may not be as simple as
simply moving out and erecting a 50-foot
high wall to separate Gaza from Israel, it is
hard to present a case for the drain on both
Israeli manpower and reputation which the
fighting between rebellious youths, tough
troops and border police brings about.
Certainly the 3,000 Jewish settlers in the
Gaza strip can be relocated in nearby parts
of Israel which literally beg for additional
It may be time to transfer the problems of
Gaza to an Arab state, and to do so quickly.

there on foot for a firing dur-

up with him.

James Levy is tempted to run
for political office, and that he
could one day become chief
minister, too.
Like his brother, James
loves Gibraltar with a passion.
But he is torn, he says, and
may soon move away
because there is no Jewish
high school.
He himself went to a local
monastery-school where the
monks, he recalls, would cut
down branches for the Jewish
children to take home for the
sukkahs. His education imbued
him with the fusion of Jewish
piety and secular worldliness
that is the hallmark of
Gibraltar's Jewry. Yet he feels
he can no longer sustain it and
transmit it to his growing
children. He has sent his eldest
daughter off to an Orthodox
grammar school in London.
The community would be
truly sorry to see him go. Part-
ly to keep him and others like
him from leaving, they are con-
sidering the founding of a
Jewish school in Gibraltar, so
that learned young men would
come and live on the rock, and
teach the younger generation.
"But they would have to be
men with a smile," Levy
warns. "No extremism can
succeed here."
He says the children today
are somehow less confortable
with the non-Jews than he and
his generation are. He be-
moans it yet he recognizes
that it is a manifestation of
that certain xenophobia in
modern Orthodoxy that has
been reincarnated from the
ashes of Eastern Europe and
now sets the tone among Or-
thodox Ashkenazim and
Sephardim the world over, in-
cluding in Israel.
It is the antithesis of the
Golden Age of Spain, and it
threatens to dull the special
brilliance of the gem that is

Three Varieties of Fruit?
APPLE and ORANGE and BUCKWHEAT
Yes, you know apples and oranges are fruit, but did you know that Kasha
is made from buckwheat, and that buckwheat is a member of the rhubarb family
(pink stalks and all!)
Buckwheat is the best source of high biological protein in the entire plant
kingdom very close to the protein level of whole milk solids. Kasha,
the 100% pure roasted buckwheat kernel, is rich in potassium,
phosphorous, fiber and vitamin B, and NO CHOLESTEROL. Thus, it is
an economical food high in balanced protein and it's delicious, too!

Violence in Territories As Murders Mount

One Arab was killed and nine
were wounded as violence con-
tinued in the Gaza Strip and

authorities said the situation in

was relatively calm and under
control after a week of rioting

On A Knife Edge
Tension has been rising in Britain over a campaign to ban
shechita (Jewish ritual slaughter). Various groups
dedicated to animal welfare have attacked Jewish (and
Muslim and Sikh) ritual slaughter on the grounds that it is
cruel and inhumane.
But Jewish leaders whether lay or religious hit back
hard. They published much scientific evidence to show that
the animal does not suffer; indeed, they argued, because of
the high skills required of a shochet (ritual slaughterer) the
animal is less likely to suffer than under any other method.
The government has now intervened. A new type of pen
must be introduced which will involve the Jewish com-
munity in considerable expense. But it has firmly rejected
proposals to ban shechita, recognizing that a basic tenet of
faith would be compromised.

In Washington, the U.S.
State Department expressed
"serious concern" over the
situation and blamed the trou-
ble on the lack of a peace
agreement in the region and
Israel's "occupation" of the
West Bank and Gaza Strip.
At the United Nations,
meanwhile, the Security Coun-
cil prepared to meet for the se-
cond time in four days, to
discuss the situation.
While Israeli authorities
sought to ease tensions, Arabs
rioted in the northern Gaza
Strip town of Khan Yunis. An

tacked an Israel Defense
Force patrol with a gasoline

The IDF has been under
orders since late last week to
exercise maximum restraint.
An investigation into the Khan
Yunis incident was promptly
held and the soldiers were
found to have "acted proper-
ly" in the circumstances.
In a bizarre aftermath, the
dead man's body was snatched
from the hospital morgue,
displayed in the streets by
demonstrators and returned to
the morgue.
Elsewhere in the Gaza strip,
soldiers at a roadblock wound-
ed four young Arabs who at-
tacked them with rocks.
One Arab was slightly
wounded in a clash with the
IDF in the West Bank. Youths
hurled rocks at army patrols in
the narrow alleys of the
Nablus casbah. They were
dispersed by tear gas. Mean-
while, a curfew was lifted at
the Balata refugee camp near
Nablus, only to be reimposed
later when rioting broke out in
the camp.
Officials of Israel's civil ad-
ministration in the territories
met with local Arab leaders to
try to calm the unrest. But
Arab municipality officials ap-
parently have little control
over what happens in the
refugee camps where pro-
Palestine Liberation Organiza-
tion activists are said to be the
source of unrest.

ritories to reopen their shops,
which have been closed for
several days, and to prevail
upon Arab workers in the
West Bank and Gaza Strip to
return to their jobs in Israel.
About 60,000 Arabs from
the territories have failed to
show up for work in Israel, ac-
cording to a report in Al
Hamishmar. The paper said
the effects of the strike are felt
mainly at construction sites
and in municipal services, such
as street cleaning and garbage
removal, in which many Arabs
are employed.
Meanwhile, the coalition
partners continued to clash
over short-term and long-term
policy in the territories.
Leaders of Likud's Herut fac-
School-Time Religion
Jewish studies in Britain's schools may be drastically af-
fected by government plans to change the education
system. Concerned at low standards, the government is
planning to introduce a compulsory national curriculum
comprising ten "foundation" subjects. This means that
"soft" subjects such as religion will, it is feared, be almost
removed from the classroom.
Jewish schools at present devote 25-30 percent of their
curriculum to Jewish studies, but with the government pro-
posing to assess each school's performance and publish the
results, the pressure to abandon these studies may be too

of aggravating the ferment in
the West Bank and Gaza by its
"low profile," "know-nothing"
They claimed that "quiet
and security will be restored
only when it is made clear that
Likud policy will be the one to
determine the future of
Judaea, Samaria and Gaza."
Laborites responded sharp-
ly, charging that Likud policies
were hindering any advance
toward negotiations for peace.
But Premier Yitzhak Shamir
got in the last word. He at-
tributed the unrest to the
"defeatist reaction of certain
circles" and charged that
"there are those among us
who believe that if we return
to the 1967 borders, the Arab
world will embrace us with
love." The premier spoke at a
meeting of Rafi, a dissident
faction that split from the
Labor Party long ago when it
was headed by Premier David
A dispute arose on another
front. According to a report in
Haaretz, Uri Porat, director
general of the Israel Broad-
casting Authority, charged
that television coverage of
disturbances in the territories
was abettng Arab propaganda.
Porat spoke at a meeting
with senior TV news depart-
ment personnel. He criticized a
segment of newscast in which
an Arab interviewee claimed
that "the army is to blame for
everything" and an army of-
ficer was asked repeatedly by
the reporter, "if it was not
possible to prevent incidents,"
Haaretz reported.

was wide agreement at a

media were "inflating" the

Urgency Spurs Search For Donor
By ALISA KWITNEY
Jewish Floridian Staff Writer
says that she is "not a teary
person," even though she is
crying as she speaks of her
daughter, Ann Koch.
Koch, 31, has lived her life
for the past seven years under
the threatening shadow of
disease; diagnosed in 1980
with chronic myelogenous
leukemia, she nonetheless
married, (Dr. Howard Koch, a
Miami Beach physician) had a
child, and led an active life.
"For the seven years, she
would have her down
moments, but on the whole she
led her life as if there were
nothing wrong," her mother
recalls. "She and her husband
traveled she and I would go
to a par 3 golf course together
and she cooked, jogged,
went to aerobics. She has
always been a wonderful wife
and mother."
All of this changed drastical-
ly when Koch's disease ac-
celerated recently. Now, only
a bone marrow transplant
from a suitable donor could
prolong Koch's life.
"Unfortunately, her siblings
are not matches," says Weins-
tein, whose other daughter,
Andrea Siassipmour, has been
trying to help locate a person
whose bone marrow would
match Ann's.
"(Andrea) has uncovered
numerous registries
throughout the country to see
if they can find a donor for
Ann, but so far we have been
unable to find a perfect
match," Weinstein reveals.
Since the chances of finding
a suitable bone marrow match
from a non-relative are "bet-
ween 1 out of 16,000 to 1 out of
20,000," the odds are against
Ann Koch. The local general
and Jewish communities,
however, are supportive of
SYNAGOGUES and
Hebrew schools have been sen-
ding their prayers, donations
and blood samples to be tissue-
typed in an effort to help Koch.
The cost of the blood tests,
normally $500 each, was
reduced to $50 by Roche
The Second Generation
Deed Club has been covering
the still considerable cost of
the testing, aided by
"People have really rallied
behind my daughter," says
Weinstein. "I'm not surprised.
I've always had great faith in
Miami, after living here for 44
years. The community has
been absolutely wonderful,
especially the Jewish
Weinstein says that her
synagogue, Temple Menorah,
has been a great support for
her, along with ot ler area
synagogues. High school girls
from Mesivta have even gone
to have blood tests, as has
newscaster Jim Brosemer
from Channel 4.
The blood tests, drawn for
tissue typing, are the first step
in determining whether or not
a person is a potential donor. If
a person's tissue type matches
Koch's, the next step would be
another two tests, to discover
whether other blood factors
ALL THREE tests reveal
that there is a match, the
donor would be admitted to
the hospital in the evening,
and the next morning, under
light general or local
anesthesia, the procedure
would take place.
A bone marrow transplant,
Weinstein points out, is a non-
surgical process. A needle is
inserted into each of the
donor's hips, bone marrow is
withdrawn and given to the pa-
tient intravenously. The donor
returns home that evening or
the next morning.
"The donor may be a little
sore in the hip area for a few
days," Weinstein admits. "But
they may save a life without
giving a life."
Potential donors sign con-
sent forms at each stage of the
process; they may back out at
anytime, and the entire pro-
cedure is explained to
carefully beforehand.
It is also Ann Koch's
chance for life: With
transplant, her odds for sur-
vival become 30 percent in-
stead of zero.
"Annie doesn't have that
much time what we are try-
ing to do is buy more time for
But time is relentless, and
for Ann Koch, it may be runn-
ing out too fast.

blood test, or to make a dona-
tion, call the Second Genera-
tion Deed Club, 751-9035.
Norma Weinstein is tired.
She has just returned from
visiting her daughter at the
hospital, where she sleeps in a
cot overnight. Her husband
"takes over during the day
STILL, THERE is just
enough energy left in her for
one more interview, one more
plea for assistance.
"We are totally consumed
with helping my daughter, but
we desperately need people,
we need money," says

Catholic-Jewish Relations
WASHINGTON Dr.
Eugene J. Fisher, the Ex-
ecutive Secretary of the
Secretariat for Catholic-
Jewish Relations of the Na-
tional Conference of Catholic
Bishops, declared today that
"while 1987 was a turbulent
year in Catholic-Jewish rela-
tions, nevertheless, the
delicate fabric of the new rela-
tionship that Catholics and
Jews have been weaving in pa-
tient dialogue for the past
twenty years in this country
and throughout the world re-
mained intact."
In an address before the
American Jewish Committee's
Interreligious Affairs Commis-
sion which is meeting here, Dr.
Fisher said that "what took
place between our two com-
munities, especially after Pope
John Paul IPs meeting last
June with Kurt Waldheim, was
something extraordinary. It
was tough and challenging on
both sides, but Jewish and
Catholic leaders were able to
cut through the rhetoric of
outrage and defensiveness,
and for a moment, we touched
each other in ways that had
not happened before. The re-
cent months of controversy
have deepened the entire
Catholic-Jewish encounter,
and, ironically, have
strengthened the entire
The Catholic leader added:
"Unfortunately there are
those within both the Jewish
and the Catholic communities,
and certainly in the media,
who want to write this year's
story as one of winners and
losers. It is simply not so. And
it has been mainly those in our
communities who have been
least involved in the ongoing
dialogue, and who may have a
stake in diminishing its
significance, who have tried to
push this false interpretation
of the events."
With regard to the recent
controversy concerning the
remarks of Cardinal Ratz-
inger, Dr. Fisher added: "The
real story of the events sur-
rounding Cardinal Ratzinger's
interview in R Sabato has yet
to come out in the media. That
story is, that the system if
imperfect does work. A
clarification was needed. A
clarification was asked for,
and within days, a clarification
was given. While much re-
mains to be discussed, there
should be no question concern-
ing the irreversibility of the
positive stance toward Jews
and Judaism officially taken by
the Church since the second
Vatican Council."
Rabbi A. James Rudin, the
AJC's National Interreligious
Affairs Directo-, responded by
praising Dr. Fisher for "his
outstanding leadership in
building positive Catholic-
Jewish relations. Personal in-
tegrity and wise counsel are
Gene Fisher's hallmarks, and
they were clearly in evidence
during an extreme!., difficult
period in the history of our two
"ibbi Rudin noted that in
1987 alone there had been
"Cardinal John O'Connor's
trip to Jordan and Israel, the
furor surrounding the con-
struction of a convent at the
Auschwitz death camp, the
beatification of Edith Stein,
the Papal meeting with
Waldheim, the Rome~ Castel
Gondolfo, and Miami Catholic-
Jewish meetings, and most
recently Cardinal Joseph Ratz-
inger's disturbing interview in
an Italian journal. These
shocks, jolts, and surprises
have severely tested Catholic-
Jewish relations. But I have
been enormously heartened by
the positive strength of
Catholic-Jewish relations in
the United States, and I have
been gratified by the impor-
tant leadership role that the
American Catholic Bishops
have played throughout this
year of crisis.
"Future generations will
judge us harshly if we now
weaken our resolve to continue
building positive Catholic-
Jewish relations, or, worst of
all, if we abandon the task
because of the events of 1987."
Jack Lapin of Houston,
Texas, who is Chairperson of
the AJC's Interreligious Af-
fairs Commission, said, "The
American Jewish Committee
is intensifying its continuing
commitment to interreligious
activities. One of these pro-
grams is the Holocaust Educa-
tion program that is being
jointly undertaken by the AJC
and the National Conference
of Catholic Bishops. This pro-
ject will make the study of the
Shoah a permanent part of
Catholic education, somethii

Heifetz Dead At 86
Jascha Heifetz, universally ac-
claimed as the greatest
violinist of this century, died
late Thursday night in Los

Heifetz, who performed con-
certs throughout the world un-
til age 73, was best known for
his technical mastery of the
violin, the elegance and fine
detail of his playing, his in-
sistence on perfection and his
disinterest in publicity. He was
once quoted as saying that
there was nothing to write
about his life other than the
dates of his birth and premier
In 1917, in the wake of the
Russian Revolution and
heightened persecution of
Jews, Heifetz left Russia and
settled in the United States.
He made his American debut
at Carneige Hall on Oct. 27 of

called a ''turning point in the

Heifetz first visited
Palestine in 1926 and donated
funds at the time to build a
Jewish music conservatory
there. The Jascha Heifetz Hall
was later built in Tel Aviv, the
only music hall in the world to
bear his name.
Heifetz was married twice,
first to Hollywood star
Florence Vidor, whom he
divorced in 1945, and then to
Frances Spiegelberg, whom he
married one year later and
divorced in 1963.

'Simcha' Tax Feeds The Hungry
Mazon, the organization that
provides food for the hungry
by asking American Jews for a
i?elf-imposed three percent
"tax" on the cost of weddings,
bar- and bat-mitvahs, anniver-
saries and other happy occa-
sions, says the idea has caught
on so quickly that contribu-
tions have tripled in a single
To date, Mazon the
Hebrew word for food has
distributed a total of 44 grants
to established community
agencies, both Jewish and non-
Jewish, that feed poor people
in this country and ; broad.
Founded two yeai ? ago by
Leonard Fein, former editor of
Moment magazine Mazon
reported total contributions of
$163,000 during its fi*st year,
which ended November 1986.
Donations for the second year,
which has just ended, showed a
dramatic jump to $550,000. In
addition, the number of gifts
has more than doubled clim-
bing from 3,850 for 1985-86 to
9,975 for 1986-87.
Theodore R. Mann, chair-
man of Mazon and president of
the American Jewish Con-
gress, says the organization
will make a stepped-up appeal
during the current holiday
season "because the need
keeps growing and Mazon is
one of the most direct and ef-
fective ways to help the
hungry and the homeless."
Among the agencies that
have received grants from
Mazon are Project Ezra, which
conducts a food kitchen for
elderly Jews on New York's
Lower East Side; the
American Jewish World Ser-
vice of Boston, which trains
local volunteers for an
agricultural development pro-
gram in Sri Lanka; and the
Wilkinson Emergency Service
liter in East Dallas, Texas,
which stocks a food pantry for
-nt immigrants from Asia.
The Mazon concept of asking
families celebrating
py events, or simchas. to
' a voluntary "tax'' to the
i of the function has proved
he particularly appealing.
B Mann, because it adds to
the joy of the occasion.
'Giving three percent of the
of a party or other
bratioo makes it more
meaningful and reflective of
the ancient Jewish imperative
one's neighbor and feed
hungry, he notes.

in the Mazon
. Angeles that does
i note of thanks
from the donor for the oppor-
tunity to "make a difference,"
he points out.
Mazon has received the en-
dorsement of the Central Con-
ference of American Rabbis,
the Union of American
Hebrew Congregations, the
Rabbinical Assembly, the
United Synagogue of America,
the Federation of Reconstruc-
tioni: t Congregations and
Havurot, the North American
Theodore R. Mann
Federation of Temple Youth.
Mazon's board is made up of
Orthodox, Conservative,
Reform and Reconstructionist
rabbis and laymen.
Hundreds of synagogues
throughout the United States
have established relations with
Mazon, and more than 1,000
rabbis are now urging their
congregants to adopt the prac-
tice of imposing a "Mazon tax"
on themselves and their
families when celebrating hap-
py occasions.
Irving Cramer, executive
director of Mazon, expects the
organization to become an
even more potent force in the
future by helping bring food
and life to additional
thousands of needy people and
by spreading the concept of
taxing oneself to help the poor.

2940 Westwood, Blvd. Los

Israel Has NATO Status
Israeli Defense Minister Yit-
zhak Rabin and Defense
Secretary Frank Carlucci sign-
ed a memorandum of
understanding that boosts
Israel's status to the
equivalent of a NATO ally of
the United States.
The agreement, signed at
the Pentagon at the beginning
of Rabin's three-day visit here,
provides for the United States
and Israel to carry out joint
military research and develop-
ment programs. It also allows
Israel to bid on military sales
to the Pentagon on the same
basis as NATO members.
Israel joins a select group of
five major non-NATO allies of
the United States that also
comprises Australia, Egypt,
Japan and South Korea.
The memorandum takes on
new importance in the wake of
Israel's agreement, under
pressure from the United
States, to cancel development
of the Lavi jet fighter. The
new pact is expected to help
save many of the Israel Air-
craft Industry jobs lost by the
Pentagon sources noted that
the memorandum is the latest
in a series of cooperating
agreements with Israel since
the 1970s, including the four-
year-old memorandum on
strategic cooperation.

Reps for the couple released the following statement: "We have agreed to a trial separation that dates back for some time.

We remain best friends and responsible parents to our daughter [Coco, 6] and we still love each other deeply. As we go through this process, we are determined to use kindness and understanding to get through this together. We are comfortable with the boundaries that we have established for each other during this separation and we hope that our friends, family, fans and the media also show us respect, dignity, understanding and love at this time as well."

Ex-worker gets death sentence for Popeyes manager's slaying
A Harris County jury on Thursday sentenced a former fast-food employee to death in the 2009 robbery and fatal shooting of the restaurant manager.
George Curry, 47, was found guilty earlier this week of shooting Edward Virappen, 19, the manager of a Popeyes chicken restaurant in the 15100 block of FM 529.
Jurors deliberated about 10 hours.
Curry was arrested two months after the May 1, 2009, crime when he was implicated by a Crime Stoppers tip.
Curry is the first person to be sent to death row this year by the Harris County District Attorney's Office. Prosecutors sought the death sentence only once last year. Obel Cruz-Garcia was sentenced to die in November for the death of 6-year-old Angelo Garcia in 1992.

- Flower Colour (?)What does this mean?
Flower Colour
Flowers come in a vast variety of colours from pure white to almost black. Colour can be affected by a number of factors including environment and diet. Use the photographs as a guide but expect variations.None or Insignificant
Eventual Spread (?)What does this mean?
Eventual Spread
You can expect the plant to spread somewhere within this range estimate. It is given as a guide but can vary dependant on several factors such as soil quality and position. 0.5m - 1m
Flowering Time (?)What does this mean?
Flowering Time
A plants development is synchronised with the changing seasons and flowering is one of several changes that occur at the appropriate time of year dependent on the specific plant. While our meteorological seasons are defined by specific dates; there can be two or the weeks difference in the start and end of the horticultural 'season' between the north and south of the UK. None or Insignificant
Foliage (?)What does this mean?
Plants that have leaves all year round are classified as evergreen. They can however lose leaves sporadically throughout the year.
Deciduous plants drop their leaves in autumn, look bare in winter and put out new leaves again in spring. Some plants such a Beech retain their dead leaves until the new spring growth.
There are exceptions, some plant drop their leaves in cold winters but keep them if it is mild. These are classified as Semi-evergreen.
- Position (?)What does this mean?
Full Sun
Six or more full hours of direct sunlight but don't forget to water.
Partial Shade
Two or three hours either in early morning or late evening sun. Very limited exposure to midday sun.
Dense Shade
Usually no more than two hours direct sunlight. Usually under dense trees, shurbs or in shade cast by buildings/fences etc.Full sun, Partial shade
- Growth Rate Average
- Soil pH (?)What does this mean?
Soil with a pH between 1 and 7 is classed as acid, ericaceous plants such as Rhododendrons need acid soil.
A neutral pH which is around 7, will be suitable for most plants. Clay soils tend to be neutral.
Soil with a pH between 7 and 14 are refereed to as Alkaline. Chalky soil is usually Alkaline. Acid, Neutral, Alkaline
Hardiness (?)What does this mean?
Fully Hardy
Hardy in most places throughout the UK even in severe winters (to -15)
Half Hardy
Hardy throughout most of the UK (to -10)
Frost Hardy
Hardy in coastal and relatively mild parts of UK (to -5) Fully Hardy
- Soil Type (?)What does this mean?
Chalky or lime-rich soils may be light or heavy, largely made up of calcium carbonate and are very alkaline.
Clay soils are potentially fertile and hold a high proportion of water. They drain slowly and take longer to warm up in spring.
Loam soils are s mixture of clay, sand and silt that avoid the extremes of clay or sandy soils. Fertile, well-drained and easily worked.
Sandy soils have a low clay content, drain quickly, easy to cultivate and work. They can dry out quickly and are low in plant nutrients. Often very acidic.Clay, Loam
- Fragranced No
- Soil Moisture (?)What does this mean?
Well Drained
Well-drained soil allows water to percolate through reasonably quickly without pooling. Well drained soil can often be dry and lack nutrients.
Poorly Drained
Poorly Drained soil is usually saturated periodically during the growing season and remains wet for several days at a time. Saturated soil can deprive roots of oxygen.
Moist Well Drained
A moist well drained soil is the best of both worlds by combining high permeability with the ability to retain moisture. Adding well rotted organic matter to dry or wet soil will help improve both these characteristics.Moist Well-drained
Buying Bamboo & Grasses from Jacksons Nurseries
At Jacksons Nurseries we sell the majority of our stock all year round. Our stock is for the most part grown outdoors making it far hardier than those grown under glass and/or only sold 'In Season'. With Bamboo and Grasses the leaves can differ in quality dependent on the time of the year and whether they are in their growth phase. We protect less hardy species during the winter but other plants grown out doors may have some wind damage. This is in no way detrimental to the plant and will grow out naturally in spring.

Bamboo has become quite popular in recent years and is used as an alternative to more tradition hedging or screens. They can also make a striking focal point when grown in isolation. Most bamboo varieties are fully hardy and will tolerate most soil types, thriving in moist, well-drained soil and placed in a sheltered spot.
Bamboo should ideally be planted in spring to give it the best chance of producing strong, new canes in summer. While most bamboo is evergreen the plants will become dormant during autumn and winter.
Types of Bamboo
There are two main types of Bamboo, they are classed as either 'running' or 'clump-forming'.
Running bamboo are often referred to as invasive bamboos because they produce large stems (rhizomes) which grow away from the plant in all directions and can spread rampantly if not contained.
Running Bamboos: Arundinaria, Bashania, Chimonobambusa, Clavinodum, Hibanobambusa, Indocalamus, Phyllostachys, Pleioblastus, Pseudosasa, Sasa, Sasaella, Sasamorpha, Semiarundinaria, Sinobambusa and Yushania.
Clump-forming bamboos in contrast have roots that form in tight clumps which mean they are far less invasive.
Clump-forming Bamboos: Bambusa, Chusquea, Dendrocalamus, Drepanostachyum, Fargesia, Himalayacalamus, Schizostachyum, Shibataea and Thamnocalamus.
Planting & Aftercare
While spring is the ideal time to plant bamboo, it is possible to plant potted stock throughout the year providing you avoid any ground frost. Before planting dig in some organic matter like manure or garden compost then dig the planting hole slightly larger than the plants roots and deep enough so the roots sit slightly lower to allow 2-3cm of soil to cover the top of them.
When back filling around the edges ensure that the new roots are not damaged. Water well following planting and add mulch to protect the roots.
Water your bamboo regularly especially during dryer periods. Each spring feed your bamboo with a nitrogen rich fertiliser and for the rest of the season a well balanced fertiliser is recommended until the end of summer.
While bamboos require little maintenance they can look unsightly if left to their own devices. You can prevent them from becoming a nuisance with little effort. Remove any weak, damaged or dead canes in spring by cutting them back to ground level and remove any debris at the base of the clumps at the same time. Once the plant is established you can remove some of the foliage from the bottom of the plant to show off the decorative canes of some varieties.
Possible Problems
In general bamboos are usually problem free however they may occasionally suffer from rust or root rot.
Bamboo shoots can pop up anywhere in your garden, neighbouring gardens and even through solid barriers such as drives, patios and conservatory floors. Normal weed suppressants will not stop bamboo from spreading. Although they do not tend to spread as much as running bamboo, clump-forming bamboo varieties can grow out of control.
In rare cases your Bamboo may flower and while it can look dramatic it isn't good news for the plant. Most Bamboos will die after flowing and while this isn't always the case the chance of recovery is very low. If you do spot the odd flowering shoot cut it out as soon as you see it to discourage more from forming. If the entire clump starts to flower the best course of action is to let it continue which feeding and watering, cut the clump back to ground level and feed with a nitrogen rich fertiliser to help encourage new growth.
