Translation is a tricky business. Translators must deftly balance their duty to the original text with the need to create a translation that stands on its own. They have to honor the wishes of the author while trusting their own talents and knowledge for what works and what doesn't. "When you translate, it's an act of ventriloquism," says American-born Evan Fallenberg, an English-language writer and Hebrew-to-English translator who lives in Israel. "You're having to, in a strange way, occupy the voice of another writer." A translated novel is "going to be something else," says Jessica Cohen, who translated into English the critically acclaimed novel "To the End of the Land," by Israeli author David Grossman. "It's going to be its own thing." Grossman recognized, she said, "that what's most important in a translation is that it conveys the right emotions or experience or responses. He's not so much concerned about the literal translation of each word," unlike some of the younger writers with whom Cohen has worked. "They want to try and make it exactly like the Hebrew, but in English, and, you know, that's not possible." Fallenberg doesn't feel comfortable writing Hebrew fiction, despite his fluency in the language. "When I try to express myself in Hebrew, the syntax is still too close to English," Fallenberg says. Cohen and Fallenberg both stress the initiative and personal license that translators need to take when translating a work from Hebrew to English. "I think that my evolution as a translator [taught me that] I have to make it my own thing," Cohen says. "And often that means veering away from the original language…as long as you're preserving the intention and the general meaning." When translating Grossman, Cohen said, she tries to maintain the rhythm of the writing, the cadence of his sentences. "It's about hearing the Hebrew coming in one ear and having it come out the other in English somehow in the same way." Still, even translated Hebrew literature can be a window into a different culture and a view of life in the Jewish state: "To the End of the Land" delves into Israel's history and its turbulent and often-fractious present. To retain the uniquely Israeli feel of the novel, even when the characters aren't conversing in Hebrew, Cohen left some un-translated words sprinkled throughout "To the End of the Land." They include "finjan," an Arabic word for coffee pot commonly used in Israel. Cohen also resists resorting to footnotes to explain certain Israeli things that might be unclear to foreign readers. "You want to be immersed in the world," she says, and constantly jumping between the text and footnotes would interrupt the process of immersion, inhibiting the readers' absorption of Israeli culture. "One of the big problems with translation is you're moving something from one culture to another, but you need to preserve something of the original culture, or it's just going to sound like some story that took place in Poughkeepsie," Fallenberg says. "You have to signal to the reader all the time [that] I want this thing to read like it's been written well in English, but it's still got to preserve something of the exotic of the original." |
Jews in the Civil Rights Movement
Dear Editor: Thank you for the excellent issue covering Jews in the civil rights struggle. The article evoked many memories for me. Following my discharge from the Army Air Force, I enrolled at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. As someone who grew up in a diverse community in Massachusetts, I had never encountered extreme, or even nominal, racism. D.C., in 1946 had segregated transportation, the drinking fountains and toilets in department stores were segregated, and even my university enrolled no African Americans. I was both shocked and ashamed by it. As a Jew who spent time in Germany in World War II, I often guarded German soldiers. That experience strengthened my conviction that I would oppose segregation wherever and whenever it occurred. Your article made me very proud of the Jews, many of them unknown, who courageously sacrificed their lives to oppose policies that degraded human beings. Sincerely, Samuel L. Simon South Nyack, NY Dear Editor: I enjoyed two articles in the summer magazine which are seemingly unrelated, but actually have a very interesting connection. The cover shows Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. holding a picture of Michael Schwerner, Andrew Goodman and James Chaney, the civil rights workers murdered in Mississippi in 1964. Elsewhere, there is a wonderful article about my friend, Harold "Hesch" Steinberg, entitled "A Lifelong Dedication to Judaism." Both Mickey Schwerner and Hesch Steinberg were members of Alpha Epsilon Pi at Michigan State University. Schwerner transferred to Cornell University after his freshman year in 1957, and his association with Michigan State was largely unknown until a few years ago. As a direct result of Hesch's efforts, Michigan State University has become aware of and embraced this connection, honoring Schwerner at a Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebration, and the local AEPi chapter hosted a Shabbat dinner and presented a plaque to Hillel in his memory. In May 2012, I had the honor to represent AEPi International and MSU Hillel at an extraordinary program in New York City, cosponsored by the Cornell University AEPi, Hillel and Black Alumni Association. The program called "The Impact and Legacy of the Schwerner, Goodman and Chaney Case," featured a panel composed of David Goodman, Ben Chaney and Stephen Schwerner, brothers of Andrew, James and Michael, respectively. These gentlemen, now in their 60s and 70s, shared some very unique perspectives on the Jewish role in the civil rights movement, the movie "Mississippi Burning," their brothers and the impact of the murders on their families. The warm hospitality of the hosts, Ellen Braitman of Bloomberg TV, and her husband, David Shapiro, provided an intimate setting and allowed a rare and unique view into history. Yours truly, Steve Bernstein Keego Harbor, Michigan Past International President, Alpha Epsilon Pi Member, Board of Directors, Michigan State University Hillel Dear Editor: My contribution in shining a light on the connection between our late Brother Michael Schwerner, Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity and Michigan State University has been greatly overstated. Past Supreme Master Steve Bernstein also shared the credit. But there is a sidebar to the cover story (Summer 2012): Among those who resisted the inevitable march for the struggle for Civil Rights were the members of a quasi-governmental agency established by the State of Mississippi: the Mississippi Sovereignty Commission. In December 1961, more than 225 Jewish teenagers and their advisers attended the Cotton States BBYO convention in Biloxi, Miss. The Mississippi Sovereignty Commission sent spies to the convention hotel to determine if these young Jewish BBYO'ers (myself included) were intent on wreaking havoc on their way of life. Of course, we weren't and we were not harmed. But it is easy to speculate on the mindset of the hate-mongers who followed and, a few years later, brutally murdered Brother Schwerner, James Chaney and Andrew Goodman. The National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis pays tribute not only to Dr. King, but also to all of the brave men and woman...black and white, young and old, Jew and Gentile...who left their blood along the long road to freedom. Brothers Schwerner, Chaney and Goodman, along with many other Freedom Summer workers, are prominently featured in the museum's exhibits. Y'all come! Sincerely, Harold "Hesch" Steinberg Germantown, Tenn. The "Aliyah Bet" seamen operated ships that ferried Holocaust survivors from the displaced persons camps of Europe to then-Palestine shortly after World War II.
Aliyah Bet was the name given to the operation run by the Haganah, the Jewish paramilitary organization that transported the refugees to the future state of Israel. Of the fewer than 250 volunteers from North America, most had served in the U.S. Merchant Marine or U.S. Navy during the war. The majority were Jewish and American. As many as 120 vessels—purchased and refurbished in secrecy—were used in the operation. In order to make their way to Palestine, they had to run the British blockade. It has been estimated that approximately half of them were intercepted, and the captured refugees were sent to internment camps on Cyprus, Germany and Palestine. Marvin "Bucky" Bacaner, a native of Chicago, served in the U.S. Merchant Marine in World War II and was recruited to be an Aliyah Bet seaman. Bacanar was interviewed by writer Bruce H. Wolk for B'nai B'rith Magazine. BBM: Where did your love of the sea originate? Marvin Bacaner: I was initially trained to be a marine engineering officer at the Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, on Long Island, New York. BBM: And your love of Israel? MB: I grew up in the Habonim movement (a youth Zionist movement), and, from the age of 10, I was a passionate Zionist. BBM: How did you first come to learn about the need for Aliyah Bet seamen? MB: After the war was over I was a professional seaman and I was still sailing. I had signed on as chief engineer on a ship heading to Antwerp, Belgium. One day while I was on shore leave. I saw a British captain who was wearing kilts. He wore a Star of David arm patch. I asked the officer, "Why do have a Star of David?" He said he was a member of the Jewish Brigade (a unit of the British army that included many Jews from Palestine). I told him I had been a Zionist all my life and never heard of the Jewish Brigade. He invited me to come back to the barracks with him, and a few of us sat around a table drinking coffee. … They were looking for volunteers to bring Jewish Holocaust survivors to embarkation ports in Italy and France and then take them through the British blockade to Palestine. When we got back to the States a letter was waiting for me at home from my Zionist youth leader. I called him, and he said, "Bucky, don't sign onto to a new ship. Come and talk to me first." The Jewish Agency had just bought two Canadian corvettes (anti-submarine ships that escorted convoys across the Atlantic to protect them from German submarines). The Haganah was originally smuggling Jews to Palestine in small, often dangerous boats using [paid] crews because big boats were difficult to obtain. BBM: As an Aliyah Bet marine engineer, what was your role? MB: We towed the [decommissioned Canadian] ships down from Canada to City Island for rehabilitation. We needed to overhaul all the machinery. I was in charge of supervising the re-conditioning, recruiting personnel and then training the ship's engineering crew. It was kept very secret. We couldn't talk about it. BBM: How did you go about recruiting seamen to work under you? MB: I went to Hashomer Hatzair (a socialist-Zionist youth movement) and Habonim, where volunteers were training for kibbutz life. I recruited the Hashomer Hatzair volunteers from their Hightstown, N.J., farm, and we also recruited from the Cream Ridge, N.J., Habonim camp. We assembled the crew for the two ships on City Island [in New York]. BBM: You talked of working in secret. How do you keep a ship secret? MB: As part of the refurbishing process, among other things, we cut off the guns and the torpedo tubes, so that the ships didn't look like [military vessels]." We were registered under Panamanian registry, and we got licenses from Panama as sailors. BBM: What was your journey like? MB: Both ships sailed together to Europe, and then my ship went to Gibraltar. One ship set sail for Sète, France, which was a fishing village where we rescued Jews who were in the displaced person camps. My ship went to Savona, Italy, where we loaded up Holocaust survivors. The name of my ship was the Josiah Wedgwood. We set sail for Palestine, but if we got caught, we carried no papers and our instructions were to disappear into the refugees we took on board. On June 27, 1946, the British Royal Navy intercepted the Josiah Wedgwood as it reached Haifa. (Wedgwood, for whom Wedgwood china is named, was an 18th century English potter and abolitionist.) Bacaner, his crewmates and 1,257 passengers were taken to an internment camp in Atlit, in what was then still Palestine. They would be slowly released into the population. After independence, the ship that Bacaner refurbished would become part of the Israeli Navy and was renamed the Hashomer ("The Watchmen"). In 1998, Bacaner was present at a 50th anniversary event for the Aliyah Bet/Machal volunteers. Following the ceremony, an elderly woman and her two daughters approached Bacaner and tearfully thanked him. "I remember you," said the older woman, a Holocaust survivor whom he had helped transport from the camps to Israel. He realized that everything he had gone through had been well worth the effort. In June, the B'nai B'rith archives and its Holocaust and Related Materials Collection were transferred to the Jacob Rader Marcus Center of the American Jewish Archives (AJA) in Cincinnati, Ohio. Click on the image above to watch a YouTube video produced by the AJA about the B'nai B'rith archives. The video includes photos of the various materials included in the B'nai B'rith archives while AJA director Gary P. Zola explains the significance of the collection to the study of Jewish history in America. Read below for an interview with Zola where he discusses why the AJA was an ideal fit to house the B'nai B'rith archives.
B'nai B'rith Magazine: When did the process of transferring the B'nai B'rith archives to the AJA begin? Gary P. Zola: As soon as I became the director of the American Jewish Archives, a number of people came and spoke to me. They all spoke to me and said it would be wonderful if we could bring B'nai B'rith's records to Cincinnati. Then we were doing everything we could to persuade the leadership of B'nai B'rith that the American Jewish Archives was the place for the B'nai B'rith records. B'nai B'rith did a lot of due diligence in terms of looking for where they felt the best place would be for their history, and of all the places they reviewed, they…picked the American Jewish Archives. BBM: What was your sales pitch to B'nai B'rith? Why did you say the archives would be best housed at the AJA? GPZ: I wanted them to see, number one, our resources. I consider our physical resources—the ability with which we have to care for all of our historical records, the size of our institution and its ability to serve the community of researchers—[to be] without parallel, without peer. I wanted them to come and see the AJA for themselves. Number two, and this was to me equally important, is that, although [even though] the records of the national B'nai B'rith includes correspondence regarding B'nai B'rith lodges all over the world, the American Jewish Archives had many, many records from the 19th century of individual [B'nai B'rith] lodges all over America…I wanted to show them that this collection would integrate into a mass of materials that we already have on B'nai B'rith. I wanted them to see that with their own eyes. BBM: Will the B'nai B'rith archives be separate from the materials you already have, or will it be integrated? GPZ: By arrangement, this will be a discreet collection, it won't be integrated…Just to have the national history together with the regional and local history is a huge, huge boost to scholars who are going to be able to see what the national office was doing or what it wanted done, what the officers wanted and then how that was translated into local lodges. And the final thing, and this is also important, is that in the 19th century…the overlap sociologically between the people who were Reform Jews and B'nai B'rith was a very important overlap. Some of the early lodges bear the names of important, prominent Reform leaders, and many of the early prominent Reformers were presidents active in B'nai B'rith. [The AJA's] strength is the non-Orthodox religious community in America. This too was another remarkable phenomenon that I thought beckoned these records to Cincinnati. BBM: Why do you think that the B'nai B'rith archives are significant, and how do they contribute to understanding the history of Jews in America? GPZ: B'nai B'rith was, without question, the first national, federated [Jewish] benevolent organization in the history of our country...It moved the nature of Jewish life outside the doors of the synagogue and into the general Jewish community. In other words, before B'nai B'rith all organizational Jewish life was anchored in the synagogue. But, you start to have this drive to go beyond the boundaries of the synagogue, and, of course, this is connected to the creation of multiple synagogues in a city. You bring [the Jews from different synagogues] together to do good deeds together, to study together, to socialize together, to do projects together. And this is the impetus for the creation of the lodge. B'nai B'rith becomes in a way reflective of the American Jewish community and its interests in a very important way. B'nai B'rith is extremely important to scholars and historians to the understanding of the American Jewish experience in 19th century [in particular.] As you get into the 20th century, you have the creation of a whole bevy of Jewish organizations that do some of the same things that B'nai B'rith does…But, in the 19th century, B'nai B'rith is the first, it dominates…it is indispensible to the study of the American Jew. By Willy Leventhal
Plains, Ga., where I now sat, seemed so peaceful…but the images of the gunshots a few weeks earlier in Americus, Ga. were still vivid. It had happened so fast—but at the same time, it was almost like a freeze frame slow motion film in the glare of the afternoon sunlight. The Klansman's gun six feet from my face, the gunshots, the rush of adrenaline when I dropped to the floor beneath the steering wheel instinctively hitting the brake—and the car skidding to a stop. Then, the confused relief when the bullet holes and the blood I checked for were not there. My mind went blank for a few seconds, and then came the realization that I hadn't been hit. The images faded and the reality of Plains—closed down for the day—came back into focus. The sun's final tapestry of colors began to fill the horizon. Plains, known for peanut farming, was a few miles down the road from Americus, the county seat. Plains would become a national dateline years later as the hometown of President Jimmy Carter, but back then it was nowhere of note. This little Sumter County hamlet was where I spent this mid-August 1965 day trying to encourage local blacks to do something that had in the past been almost exclusively "white folks biznez"—registering to vote. My work for the day was done, and I was waiting for a ride back to Americus as I watched a couple of kids down at the train depot who were playing hide-and-seek around shipping crates filled with peanuts. Across the dusty tranquility of the town oval—Plains being too small for the quintessential southern town square—was a stocky young blond man at a service station in a baseball cap, drinking a few beers as he tossed a stick for his dog. He paid me no attention. It was past dinnertime, and the sky was now beginning to turn darker shades of orange and purple. The southern Georgia heat had begun to subside, and the shade of the porch made it less oppressive. The '55 Dodge pickup, a little on the raggedy side, with Judson Ford at the wheel, pulled to a stop, raising some sticky red dust from the clay-laden Georgia soil. David Bell, riding shotgun, leaned his head out the window and smiled a broad grin. David had an attractive ebony face that was a contrast between his adolescent mirth and apparent deep concentration beyond his years. David's family had become my movement family, giving me a bed to sleep in, and meals…as had the Simmons' back in Macon, Ala., beginning in mid-June. "Hey, Willy," David called. "Get in, brother. My mom be holding dinner for us. And, those collards be gettin' …coe-lll-ddd (c-o-l-d)." With a smile, he continued: "I know they're not your favorite, even when they be steaming." "OK," I called back, picking up the voter registration leaflets, "and, big brother David, you'll be glad to know that a nice elderly lady, not more than a mile out in the country, promised me that she would go down to the courthouse in Americus and 'reddish' [register]. And, even without you watching out for me, I got through another whole day without being shot at." A few days earlier, David had been trying to get new voters scheduled to go to the courthouse, when he and white volunteer, Bill Rau, had been attacked by two white men in a car who threw bricks at them, hitting Bill in the face, opening a wound that took thirteen stitches to close. As David tried to give aid to Bill, the two men got out of the car and attacked Bill with clubs. Had Bill not gone into the fetal position with his hands covering his head, as we had been taught at orientation by Hosea Williams and other movement military vets, he might have had a fractured skull, rather than broken fingers. David gave me another big grin, and said: "None of those bad white dudes been chuckin' rocks at you?" Judson, David and I laughed as I climbed into the pickup, still smiling. Judson nodded at me, with a soft smile. He was twice David's age of 17, but just as lean and hard. Judson Ford had served in Korea, and the day before, at Barnum's Funeral Home, the hub of the movement in Americus, I saw him stick a .38 revolver in his belt as we were getting ready to go out in the country to pick up some movement folks who had been trying to solicit new voters among the few residents in the tiny villages of DeSoto and Leslie. Surprised, I said: "Judson, what's the gun for? I thought we were nonviolent?" Judson had gazed blank–faced at me for a moment. And then, he had a long silent look that said, "I'm not sure if you're for real, young white boy; or, if you can understand the implications of what I'm going to tell you, or about what's really going on down here for that matter." He then spoke without emotion: "Oh yeah, we are nonviolent, little brother...Andy Young, even Willie Bolden and Big Lester, as tough as they are. All of Dr. Martin Luther King's staff...J.T. Johnson, and Lula Williams, too. And, the good Lord knows Dr. King, our leader, is. But, Willy, this ain't no demonstration we're fixing to leave for right now. No TV cameras to help protect us, and I plan to get me and you, and the other youngsters back alive. There's been more reports of heavy gunfire down in terrible Terrell County. I decided after Korea, even if I couldn't vote when I got back, that I'd be a target for no Kluxer, or anyone else. You comin'?" I had still been trying to wrap my mind around what Judson said as I drove our Dodge pickup—Judson riding shotgun beside me—from Barnum's on down the hill to Lee Street, and then south on Highway 19. The gun didn't bother me, and, in fact, it made me feel less afraid. That trip was one of more than a few times when my idealism and my faith in Dr. King's teachings of nonviolence came face to face with the reality of southwest Georgia in the summer of 1965. B'nai B'rith member William Korey sought to uncover the truth
The year 2012 marks the centennial of Raoul Wallenberg's birth and the 67th anniversary of his disappearance. The occasion has been marked by the celebration of Wallenberg's goodness and his achievements—the hundred thousand Hungarian Jews he saved from Nazi persecution—while the search for answers regarding his mysterious imprisonment and death continues. William Korey, who died in 2009, worked with B'nai B'rith for decades, advocating tirelessly on behalf of Soviet Jews and other causes of importance to the Jewish people. He served as director of both the Anti-Defamation League as well as B'nai B'rith International's United Nations Office in New York City. Korey was also one of the leading experts on Raoul Wallenberg. Korey authored two books on the subject—"The Wallenberg Mystery: Fifty-Five Years Later" and "The Last Word on Wallenberg? New Investigations, New Questions"—in addition to writing op- eds for various newspapers, including one published in The Wall Street Journal in 1989 entitled "The Soviet Union Should Come Clean on Raoul Wallenberg." In 2006, Korey appeared before the Congressional Human Rights Caucus to discuss the latest in what had been a decades-long search for the truth regarding the fate of Wallenberg.

Dear Editor: I recently received from the B'nai B'rith Magazine and read numerous letters to the editor dealing with your article about Jews serving in the U.S. Armed Forces. As a reference to this subject matter, I thought you may be intrigued by a few paragraphs in my late father's memoirs. My father, Chaim Herzog, Israel's sixth president, served as the Military Attaché of Israel in the USA between 1950 and 1954 in the rank of Colonel. . In his autobiography "Living History" (Pantheon Books, 1996), he depicted the unique situation in which certain Jewish commanders in the U.S. army felt at the time. He mentions a few interesting examples (to read them, click here). Sincerely, Isaac (Bougie) Herzog Member of the Knesset Jerusalem The Message of Passover Dear Editor: Allan Jacobs' column in the recent issue of B'nai B'rith Magazine had more of an impact than you might realize. My immediate reaction to it was "My God, this is what I've been trying to impart to all the people who come to meetings and who have no idea what B.B. is all about except for the fact that they live in a B.B. building." I am an almost 92-year-old woman who has been a member of B.B. since 1941…over 70 years!!!! Oh, what glorious days they were! It was an "honor" to become a member and activity was bubbling over. I think I must have been chair of every position on the board including "President" three times…wherever I moved. Now I live at Homecrest House in Silver Spring, MD and am the closet advisor to our unit. We held a general meeting recently which was conducted by our newly elected president, Sandy Wasserman, which went very well. I had mentioned your article to Sandy before the meeting, and she asked if I would read it. Well, I did…and it was so well received, the audience actually applauded. It was the first time that, for a good portion of the attendees, they ever heard an explanation of what B'nai B'rith is all about. Your message is so complete, so succinct; there wasn't anything to be explained. Several people approached me later to thank me and to say it was an eye-opener. Thank you so much for giving ME the opportunity to do what I've been trying to do for so long. Thank you again for your marvelous message. Let your imagination give you a big hug from me. Sincerely, Marge Bograd Silver Spring, Md. The Jews of Berlin Dear Editor: As a former Berliner, I was very interested in the article about Berlin in the recent issue of the magazine. However, I noted that there was no mention of the wonderful Jewish museum in that city. It is fairly new, and visitors to the city should not miss seeing it. Also, the article about the B'nai B'rith lodge in Berlin did not mention what that unit is doing now. When my husband and I, and another B'nai B'rith couple were in Berlin in 1991, we were invited by the lodge president for a social evening and also spoke to the audience briefly about our involvement and work in the organization in the U.S. Many of the lodge members were from the former Soviet Union and quite a few from Israel. Sincerely, Margarete Goldberger Dear Editor: Your article in the spring magazine brought lots of memories. Born in Berlin, my grandfather's name was Louis Schachmann. My father's name was Carl Schachnann. They both were members of B'nai B'rith. I remember my grandfather showing me on his gold chain hanging a little gold triangle which was an emblem from B'nai B'rith. My grandfather had been a president in one of the synagogues you mentioned; however I cannot remember which. I just know that we had a big silver bowl with an inscription about my grandfather serving as president. My best regards to you, Margot Schachmann-Druyf-Okowita Dallas, Texas Postcards from the Holocaust Dear Editor: I was both amazed and excited to read Dara Kahn's account of Torkel Wachter's project in the spring issue of the B'nai B'rith Magazine. I was amazed because his serendipitous find of the 32 postcards led him to an ever expanding understanding of his family relations, his roots and ultimately his identity. It is a personal story with an historical background that should take its place among Holocaust literature, never to be forgotten. I was excited, because I have come unexpectedly into possession of a collection of correspondence of my uncle, who had saved all the letters and postcards written to him by his family and mine when they were still in Germany, in Poland, or on the way to the Americas. That mail dates from the last years of World War I (1917) and ends abruptly in the middle of World War II (1941). It is written in German (many in the old German script) and Yiddish. I am in the process of organizing this material, preserving it, translating it and drawing on it for an expanded memoir I have written but not published. Needless to add, as an 87-year-old Jewish refugee and grandfather, I feel an urgency to complete my project and would also welcome some help with my work. Sincerely, Gunther Rice Glencoe, IL Translated by Jan Lee A published author and chef, Antoní Pinya is one of Mallorca's foremost authorities on Balearic Island cuisine. He has devoted much of his career to discovering and perfecting subtleties of Mallorca's many famous dishes, as this delicate Sephardic Passover torte demonstrates. Chef Pinya's baking notes are included at the end of the recipe. You can either grind the blanched almonds yourself, or purchase almond flour, which is sold in most natural foods stores. 2 cups 1 teaspoon almond flour (finely ground raw almonds) 1 1/4 cups sugar 5 eggs The grated peel of 1 lemon 1 teaspoon ground coffee (not instant) 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 tablespoon butter or margarine A pinch or so of matzah flour 1 tablespoon confectioner's sugar Preheat the oven to 350 F* Butter a tart mold with butter or margarine. Sprinkle it with the matzah flour. Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the yolks, blending with the sugar until the mix has doubled its initial volume. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff. Fold the yolk mixture into the whites. Add the ground almonds with the coffee, cinnamon and the lemon peel, and combine into the mixture Pour the mixture into the buttered mold. *Bake at 350˚F for the first 15 minutes, and then reduce heat to 320˚F for the remaining 25 minutes. Remove mold from oven and let it rest for five minutes. Carefully remove the torte from the mold. Sprinkle the torte with a bit of confectioner's sugar. Serve cold. Notes: This is a cherished delicacy on the island of Mallorca, and especially among chueta families. Its ingredients, the manner of preparation and its qualities reflect its Jewish culinary heritage. Today, we can find its origins reflected in other Sephardic communities. In Italy, it is known by the name of Bocca di Dama, although the latter version is made with flour and is served during the break-the-fast that follows Yom Kippur. In Turkey, surprisingly, it goes by the same name as in Mallorca, but has a distinction: Turkish Jewish cooks use walnuts in place of almonds, and call it Gato de Muez de Pesah. In Morocco it is known by the name of Pallebe aux Amandes, and like in Italy, is made with flour. These examples confirm that Jews throughout the Diaspora have adapted to the places in which they have settled, changing the aromas, but staying faithful to the same traditional conventions.

By Dara Kahn The mid-20th century was a tumultuous time for Jews in North Africa and the Middle East. With the creation of the State of Israel in 1948 and ongoing wars of independence from British and French colonial rule, the situation in the area was quickly changing, mostly to Jews' detriment. Many left for Israel, Western Europe or the United States. Extracted from B'nai B'rith's archives, the following are but brief highlights of the organization's extensive role in helping Jews in three of these countries. AlgeriaFor nearly 2,000 years, a sizable Jewish community lived peacefully in the North African country—until the brutal uprising against French rule, stretching from 1954 to 1962. In 1961, the B'nai B'rith International Council prepared a background study on the Algerian Jewish community, at the time 130,000 strong. The council asserted: "To Algerian Jewry, guarantees of minority rights for Europeans is a crucial matter. Equally so, at the moment, a definition of their own status: Is the Algerian Jew European or Algerian?" Though both French and Algerian leaders assured Jews that their rights would be protected, Arab nationalism and hostility often turned to violence, leaving the longevity and safety of the Jewish community in question. On May 9, 1962, French Ambassador to the United States Herve Alphand addressed the B'nai B'rith International Council at a diplomatic dinner at the Sheraton-Carlton Hotel in Washington, D.C., reaffirming that "all through the negotiations in Evian with [Algeria's National Liberation Front], it was the French government's concern to protect the fate of the Jewish population of Algeria," according to the Washington Evening Star. He also noted that since the French issued a decree in 1870 granting French citizenship to the Jews of Algeria, they would also have automatic immigration rights to France. But as Algerian independence loomed and Jews' rights slowly disintegrated, they began to leave by the thousands, most immigrating to France, others to Israel and North America. Today, fewer than 100 Jews remain. EgyptBy the early 1900s, B'nai B'rith had established two lodges in Egypt—District Grand Lodge Egypt and Lodge Port Said—as part of District No. 16. By 1948, about 100,000 Jews, mostly stateless residents, lived in Egypt. In 1956, after Israel, France and the United Kingdom invaded Egypt over ownership of the Suez Canal, Egyptian President Gamel Abdel Nasser authorized the confiscation of Jewish property and the incarceration of innocent Jews. Egypt also deported nearly 25,000 Jews with little notice, breaking apart families and allowing them to bring only one suitcase and $56. In response, B'nai B'rith participated in an emergency conference of major Jewish groups in New York, where they asked President Eisenhower to express shock to the U.S. Ambassador to Egypt to express the United States' shock at these atrocities. Simultaneously, B'nai B'rith urged its lodges to join with other groups in local protest meetings. IraqPrior to Iraq's independence from Great Britain in 1932, the country's Jewish population was prosperous. Though Iraq's declaration of independence pledged full equality and cultural autonomy to all citizens and minority groups, the promise was short-lived. A "Memorandum on the Situation of the Jews in Iraq," signed and presented to the U.S. State Department on Nov. 3, 1949 by B'nai B'rith and six other major American Jewish organizations, stated: "From the day of its independence, Iraq has followed a militant anti-Jewish policy. Under a swift succession of Iraqi governments, anti-Jewish discrimination spread to government service, education, and economic fields. Anti-Jewish propaganda was indulged in by the Government." Jews were arrested and killed, their businesses were looted, hundreds of Jewish homes were destroyed and other properties were confiscated. Their emigration rights were also severely restricted. Evoking anti-Semitic stereotyping similar to what Jews in many countries face today, the memorandum asserted that, "All Jews of Iraq, of whatever political creed, fall under the shadow; a so-called 'anti-Zionist' campaign is used as camouflage for the persecution of an entire ethnic and religious minority in violation of the United Nations Charter and common human rights." Two decades later, in January 1969, B'nai B'rith President Dr. William A. Wexler wrote to the Secretary General of the United Nations urging "consideration and action" to look into "the condition of Jews in Iraq," following the execution of 14 Iraqis, nine of whom were Jewish, on charges of espionage. B'nai B'rith held a memorial service for those Jews in Washington, D.C., and sent letters to the Pope, U.S. President, Secretary of State, congressmen and others thanking them for condemning the hangings. As of 2008, fewer than 10 Iraqi Jews remained in the country. Hearing the Great American Songbook's Jewish Roots The Great American Songbook is steeped in Jewish liturgical tunes and songs from Yiddish theater, music that was an integral part of the lives of many Jewish songwriters and composers in the early 20th century. Click below to hear some of this music. Di grine kuzine (The Greenhorn Cousin) Click here to listen By Abe Schwartz This theatrical song from 1921, written by Abe Schwartz, was a major boost to his career and helped him gain access to some of New York's major Yiddish theaters. The piece reflects many immigrants' feelings of disillusionment about their lives in the "promised land" of America. Other such "disillusionment" songs of the era became folksongs, some lighthearted, some not so much. These songs all spoke of the unexpected economic hardships and difficult, sweatshop conditions they found where they had heard that the streets were paved with gold. This piece also initiated a genre of songs about "greenhorns"—a reference to newly arrived, un-Americanized immigrants. Courtesy of the Milken Archive of Jewish Experience. For more information visit http://www.milkenarchive.org/works/view/582 Sheyyibbaneh beit hammikdash (Song for When the Temple is Rebuilt) Click here to listen By Israel Schorr This prayer's structure is one example of the type of Jewish liturgy that many argue has seeped into the American Songbook.
"Sheyyibane beit hammikdash" is Israel Schorr's best-known composition, one that expresses hope that the messiah will come, that the ancient Temple will be rebuilt and the Jewish people's spiritual and sovereignty in its biblical homeland will be restored. Schorr (1886-1935), born in what is now Poland, began his cantorial career as a child soprano to the Hasidic courts of two rabbis. In 1904, he became the official cantor for the rebbe in Rymanover, succeeding his relative Boruch Schorr. After serving in the Imperial army during World War I, he had cantorial pulpits in Brunn, Krakow, Piestany, west Slovakia and Zurich. When he immigrated to the United States in 1924, he was cantor at synagogues in Chicago and New York, during which time he began to compose his own pieces. Many of these became well known and were expanded by other virtuoso cantors to concert versions and recordings. In this case, Schorr's composition became famous through performances and recordings by Moshe Koussevitzky (1899–1966), a renowned chazzan first in Poland, then New York.

Epson might be better known for its printers and scanners, but don't forget that the company does a bustling trade in projectors, too. The EH-TW5800 is positioned at the top of Epson's current range.
The 'TW5800 is a Full HD, LCD design that features 12-bit video processing and the very latest version of Epson's D7 C2 Fine Panel LCD technology.
There's nothing too taxing about setting up this projector.
Although luxuries such as motorised zoom are absent, the 'TW5800 can be quickly manipulated into position using the lense shift dial on top of the machine, and the focus and zoom dials positioned around the Fujinon lens.
The Epson is also very quiet, and doesn't suffer from the hair dryer soundtrack of some models.
More after the break
On-screen menus look simple enough, but there's a chance you could get bogged down by some of the in-depth options on offer.
The 'TW5800 is ISF-certified, so a qualified engineer could be called out – for a fee, of course – to set it up if you wish.
Vibrant motion trackingOne of the Epson's big plus points is its ability to handle motion. Panning shots from Transformers and The Dark Knight remain smooth and stable.
Edge definition is crisp, without a trace of colour bleeding. There's also no sign of the 'chicken-wire' effect that poor projectors can suffer from.
The 'TW5800 uses Epson's DeepBlack picture technology to enhance contrast, and there's no question that it can produce solid, deep blacks. However, the very best at this price provide excellent black depth while maintaining dark detail – this Epson doesn't quite have the same insight and subtlety.
The only real problem for the 'TW5800 is that it's positioned between excellent budget models from InFocus and high-end machines from JVC.
The Epson doesn't outperform cheaper models by enough of a margin, and isn't close enough to the performance of more expensive models. Very good, but not a world-beater.

Winnipeggers trash compost
Garbage bags filled with food waste
If you rummage through a Winnipegger's trash can, there's a good chance it's full of food scraps and leftovers that could be composted.
According to a 2009 waste-composition study released through a Freedom of Information request, more than one-quarter of all trash Winnipeggers generate is food waste, which contributes to harmful gases and contaminants released by landfills. Another 25 per cent is recyclable paper and packaging materials such as newspapers, egg cartons and cardboard.
While some of this trash gets recycled, a lot of it is still heading to a landfill.
City solid waste manager Darryl Drohomerski said reducing food and organic waste will be a key part of Winnipeg's new waste-management strategy, which is expected to be unveiled in early September and put to a council vote before the end of the month. Winnipeggers are among the worst recyclers in the country, and Drohomerski said only between 18 and 20 per cent of all waste is diverted away from landfills. Winnipeg won't be able to get that rate up to 50 per cent without addressing organic and yard waste, he said.
"We should be able to do better," Drohomerski said. "We're doing OK, but we need to do a lot better compared to what other centres are doing."
The province hired a consulting firm in 2008 to find out what's inside the blue boxes and trash bags residents of Winnipeg, Brandon and Portage la Prairie put out for pickup. Consultants sorted through what's thrown out in low-, middle- and high-income areas of Winnipeg in June 2008 and February 2009.
Laurie Streich, director of Manitoba Conservation's pollution prevention branch, said officials had suspected food waste accounted for a large portion of the trash people generate. Food waste thrown in the garbage contributes to the methane gas released by landfills, Streich said, in addition to leachate, the contaminated liquid that drains from a landfill.
Some cities -- including Brandon -- have piloted food and organic-waste collection to reduce the amount sent to the landfill, she said.
"It is a sizable chunk, really," Streich said of the amount of food waste.
Overall, the study found the average Winnipegger generated about 298 kilograms of garbage every year -- up from 275 kg in 1996.
The study found low-income individuals generated about 63 kilograms more waste per year than high-income individuals and only about 40 per cent of residents in low-income areas participated in recycling programs. By comparison, 82 per cent of middle-income families and 93 per cent of high-income families participated in the city's blue box recycling program.
Low-income families threw out more diapers, more construction material and more food waste than middle- and high-income families.
Drohomerski said he's spoken with residents in parts of the city who are frustrated because their blue boxes are sometimes vandalized by area kids and recyclables get scattered everywhere. Other times, he said, recycling may not be a big priority for low-income families.
"I've talked to a number of people who say, 'You know, I'm concerned with putting food on the table and keeping my job. Whether this item in my hand is recyclable is not super high on my priority list,' " Drohomerski said.
Winnipeg will implement new strategies to reduce food and yard waste next year before moving to a full organic waste-processing program a "couple years down the road," Drohomerski said. The city also plans to focus more on education, so more Winnipeggers understand what they can do to reduce the waste that goes into landfills, he said.
Winnipeggers generate a total of about 52,561 tonnes of food waste and 30,000 tonnes of yard waste every year.
Dave Elmore, a retired engineer who does compost education with local non-profit Green Action Centre, said many people are still reluctant to compost because they falsely believe it smells bad and will take up too much time. Elmore said 40 to 80 per cent of what people throw away can be composted, including food, leaves and grass clippings. The key is teaching people how to do it properly, and he hopes the city will focus its efforts on educating people about how to compost at home, he said.
"It's not as much work as they think and it doesn't have to stink."

I write a wine column in a regional rag, Flavor, and have also been asked to write a column on Craftbrewing (and homebrewing in the future, but that's another thread). This afternoon, I'm interviewing Taylor Smack, the owner and brewmaster at Blue Mountain Brewery and Hop Farm. I've known Taylor for awhile, since he was brewing for South Street. He just started this brewpub/hop farm last year, and he's doing a bang-up business. So I'm featuring him in my column, and I have a bunch of questions worked out that I want to ask him---but I thought, hell, I have yous guys' great minds at my disposal , might as well use 'em. So, what do you think would be some good Q's to ask a brewmaster? This magazine features good food, regional specialties, etc., it's not a beer geek rag, so stuff like "do you do a triple decoction with your lager, and if so, how stiff is the portion you pull out" isn't gonna play. Think, general beer-ignorant public.
Some advanced dumb people questions could be: Does he grow all of his own hops or does he also have to buy hops to suppliment what he grows? Are any of the hops varieties he uses special to his brewery, does he have a "signature hop". Does he plan on growing his own grains on his farm? How about malting etc?
No matter how rich you are, you can still only drink 16 or 17 liters of beer a day.
"What would you say, Mr. Smack, is the one outstanding difference between what you are doing with your beer and what a long standing brewery like Anheiser Busch is doing"?
Many fertilizers are Petroleum based. So My question would be: How has the economic downturn and the increased oil price (and recent reduction in oil price), affected your farming operation, and has the on-site brewery helped offset those costs, and if so, do you see reducing transportation costs by localizing business and manufacturing as a viable solution to other businesses in your area? Also, What kind of fertilizer does one use for hop plants on a large production scale?
I'm new to drinking different beers (i.e., I normally drink domestic beer). What would you suggest I try from your brewery if I am interested in supporting a local brewer?
Any beers that he wanted to make at his old job but couldn't, and now that he is the owner, will?
Cool, thanks---those are all great.
Hey, knock that shvt off. We're drinkin' here.
What types of beers go with what meals?
Evan! surely you are smart enough to come up with questions. All of these are good questions. As a professional interviewer my one and only suggestion is DO NOT ask questions that can be answered with a simple yes or no. And the best questions are follow ups to answers the subject gives you. Pay very close attention to what he's saying.

PHOENIX - A harrowing experience for a 13-year-old west Phoenix girl, who was abducted at gunpoint Monday night, then driven around for several hours by her captors before being released miles away in Surprise.
Phoenix police Sgt. Andy Hill says Marquesia Thomas was transferred several times from one vehicle to another, and at one point was placed in the trunk of a car. She was threatened repeatedly, said Hill, and hit on the head several times but wasn't seriously injured.
She was released about 2:30 a.m. Tuesday outside a Surprise home.
Hill says the abduction may have been drug-related, but he says Marquesia was an innocent victim and that it may have been a case of mistaken identity.
Police say between three and six armed men snatched the teen from outside a friend's house around 7 p.m. Monday.

I love this tunic so much I looked to see if it was available in more colors! I'd own three if it came in more colors!
I love this tunic. The black and pink together is so becoming. It is very light weight so it is great for the summer. It is very slimming especially with black leggings.
I am very happy with this top. It's perfect with a pair of leggings, perfect for year-round wear and hides everything I want hidden. I give it a thumbs up.
You'll receive lots of compliments with this one! It flatters the shape, washes and dries perfectly without the need for ironing, is comfortable to wear, and is lightweight enough for Florida summer. It quickly became my favorite top! If the same style came in other designs, I'd probably buy all of them.
This shirt is longer than I thought it would be. I will be able to wear it with dressy pants. It will make a nice addition to my "going out" wardrobe.
I love this top! Got great compliments from men and women! It flows nicely, hugs your body but does not cling! Gives great flow and I wish all my tops fit/looks as good as this one does!!
I love the style, color and fit... Very flattering.. I have had lots of compliments..

Besteck dekorieren. Mosaik Vorlage. Leather Passport. Continuing with our summer series of Best of DIYs we bring you this pretty fab project by Alicia Jepsen of Jepsen LeatherGoods.
Back in 2011 Alicia shared how to make this leather passport holder with us, and we're happy to dig it out of the archives - perfect for a summer DIY we think! Check it out below! Guest DIY post by Jepsen LeatherGoods How to Make Your Own Leather Passport Holder by Jepsen LeatherGoods What You Need: Schmuck-schule - Sie können es selber machen. Lucky Wishing Stars Tutorial. You've probably seen these little puffy origami stars before.
They are really quick to make, and you don't need any special materials to make them. You can buy lucky star pre-cut strips from origami stores, but you can just as easily make your own from medium weight coloured paper, e.g. scrapbooking paper, or even strips cut from magazine pages – as the strips are so narrow, the original text or image won't be obvious in the finished star. Anti-clockwise from top left: pre-cut strips, paper cutter, scrapbook paper, magazine page.
Now on to the tutorial! Christmas tree ornament mobile. This year we decided to do something a little different with our tree and I created this Christmas tree mobile consisting of ornaments suspended on clear threads.

I applied online. The process took 1+ week – interviewed at Total Wine & More.
Hiring takes a very long time so don't be discouraged. There is an interview with standard questions.There will be a written wine test. There is a personality test, drug test, and wine test. I felt like these tests didn't take place until they got the go ahead to hire. Then, as long as these tests are passed you will be hired. I felt like they wouldn't of bothered with testing if the interview didn't go well.

Eco-friendly home features durable bamboo flooring
Eco-friendly home features durable bamboo flooring
When Bruce Schena and Cathy Ricke initially decided to remodel their home in Palo Alto, California, their primary concern was creating more space for them and their two adolescent daughters. However, as the renovation process progressed, the couple began to focus on creating an eco-friendly abode.
According to PaloAltoOnline.com, Schena and Ricke hired architect Ana Williamson and building contractor Drew Maran, who had been using green practices for the past 20 years. Soon, Schena and Ricke were picking out energy-efficient heating and lighting systems, and using sustainable materials, such as bamboo flooring, whenever possible.
Selecting their flooring, however, took a bit of extra research. In order to ensure that their floors were the most durable available, the news provider reports that Schena collected numerous bamboo samples and used load-testing equipment to figure out which were sturdiest.
Bamboo flooring is an excellent option for homeowners who want to utilize an eco-friendly material without sacrificing style or durability. According to the World Floor Covering Association, bamboo can be up to 27 percent harder than other hard surface flooring, and can be finished to match nearly any decorating style.

, the U.S. government found some amazing uses for it as well. It was first used in the Explorer VII missile.

Photos from the 2014 Ukiah Pumpkin Fest and Pirate Pete's Pumpkin Patch. It's no secret that Halloween is my favorite holiday, I'm glad that Ukiah takes it seriously.
70mm f/8.0 1/320s ISO100
It's Friday the 13th, the second one we've had in 2012. Believers in superstition feel this occurence to be an unlucky omen. Not only is 2012 the year the Mayan calendar ends, not only is 2012 a leap-year, but Friday the 13th is quite an unlucky number. I am not superstitious, so I naturally don't place much stock in numbers. Any scholar of the history of man loses their belief in superstition after learning how different beliefs are the world over. Why is the number 13 considered unlucky? It's not actually 13 that's unlucky, as numerology deals almost exclusively with single digit numbers, however the number 4 is believed to be a bad omen, and since 1+3=4 13 is unlucky. Any combination of numbers that adds to four is usually un-lucky. In America we avoid 13, we often skip the 13th floor in buildings going from 12 to 14. It seems that the 'evil' attracted to the 13th floor is negated simply by avoiding the label. In Japan all values of four are omitted, 4, 13, 22, 31 etc. They don't simply skip these floors, since their evil spirits can count, so they build their structures normally then wall off the floors associated with that number. If the Japanese are right, every 14th floor in America is haunted. For the 9-5 workers of America Friday the 13th is still a good omen, promising two days of rest at its conclusion. Sailors had a different view of bad luck, while the average believer in superstition would go to great lengths to avoid bad omens, sailors would keep the symbols of those omens close at hand. It was a common belief that having a tattoo of the number 13, or the grim reaper, would cause bad luck to pass by. Bad luck would believe the bearer of the tattoo to be kin, and thus not trouble his brother. Sailors have a very involved set of superstitions involving tattoos, one of the most common is based on the phrase 'pig below the knee, safety at sea' and is the cause of many pig tattoos on a sailors foot. Another common phrase resulting in a tattoo is 'Cock on the right, never lose a fight'. The pig is tattooed on the left foot, and the rooster on the right of a man who wishes to win fights and not drown. Of course there are better ways to win fights and avoid drowning, but superstition and the belief in magic seems to be a part of human culture since the neolithic age, and possible even before that. Modern psychologists have proven that bad luck is truth to the superstitious due to a concept called 'self-fulfilling prophesy'. When you believe something will happen, you act in such a way that causes it. This concept is nothing new, as far back as 1000 C.E. Kings have issued decrees against predicting anything negative against royalty, and many people have been jailed, hung, or burned for publishing negative predictions in their almanacs and horoscopes. Since the Royalty believed in the power of prediction, they naturally feared it. In America the tradition of the carnival has given us much insight to the palm-readers and crystal-gazers, and with that knowledge we are free to indulge in such things for fun, enjoying the art and fantasy created by the great showmanship without the heavy-hearted belief in them. Superstition is very real to the superstitious, and much money has been made selling amulets, charms, and spells to ward off bad luck. These trinkets work by the same psychological concept that causes the curses to work, self-fulfilling prophesy. If you believe it will happen, it probably will. Enjoy this Friday the 13th, and take a moment to remember our collective history filled with magic and fancy without the superstition. |

Navajo Judges Election Question (November 2010)
Not on Ballot |
This measure did not or will not appear on a ballot |
A Navajo Election Judges Election Question was supposed to be on the November 2, 2010 ballot in the Navajo Nation.
This measure would have asked members of the Navajo Nation if they wanted to change the appointment of the three tribal supreme court judges and seventeen district court judges to instead being elected by residents in the community. Supporters stated that election of all the judges would have made them more accountable to the people but opponents said that backers of the measure were just using it as a way to retaliate after a court decision that went against the tribal council. Currently the judiciary committee of the council appoints candidates and they serve life terms.[1]
The ballot language had been approved for this measure and proponents of it felt that it did not tell voters what was really at stake. If this had been approved, it would have made it so that the current judges would lose their jobs in 2013 in order for each position to be elected. Former judges would have also lost their health benefits and salaries would have no longer been based on qualifications. Questions about the legality of the legislation had also been brought up.[2] A complaint had been filed by the Navajo president to a district judge, hoping to stop the vote. The president noted that the legislation should have gone through him before it was approved for a vote. It was also noted that no public funds had been allocated to help with voter education, residents will not be clear what is being asked when they go to vote. The court had the final say if this will be voted on or not.[3]
A judge removed the question from the ballot, though some early voters had cast their votes, they just will not count. The judge ruled in favor of the president, that it was not legal to have the issue not get approval from him.[4]
