WRJ Sisterhood Presents Seder from Women’s PerspectiveBY STEPHEN E. LIPKEN

Women of Reform Ju-daism (WRJ) at Westchester Reform Temple (WRT), Scars-dale, guided by their WRJ Women’s Seder Haggadah will retell the Passover story from the feminine point of view at their 18th Annual Women’s Seder, paying tribute to the daughters of Israel on Thurs-day, March 22 at WRT at 6:00 p.m.

“In more traditional Hagagadot, retelling the story of the Exodus of the Jew-ish people from Egypt, has been from a masculine per-

spective,” Seder Chair Karen Frommer explained. “The

voices of the heroic Biblical women so important to this Passover story have gone un-heard.

“WRJ Seder pays trib-ute to…Shifrah and Puah, the midwives who disobeyed Pha-raoh’s orders and refused to kill newborn Jewish babies; Jocheved, who devised a plan to save her son Moses; sister Miriam who watched over him and Pharaoh’s daughter Batya who rescued Moses from the Nile and raised him.

“The Seder tables are named after women leaders (including Jocheved, Queen Esther and matriarchs Ruth,

Rachel and Sarah). Guided in prayer and song by Cantors Jill Abramson and Amanda Kleinman, women of all gen-erations, diverse cultures and religions come together

to share this ritual meal, dancing with tambourines as Miriam did…led by Fran Osinoff around a huppah (wedding canopy) embla-zoned with the same design as the Haggadah cover.

“Osinoff was inspired by attending the Ma’yan Women’s Seder in 2000 (Ma’yan is the Jewish Wom-en’s Project of the JCC of the Upper West Side in Manhat-tan). Under the WRJ presi-

dency of Sondra Older, Fran chaired the first Women’s Seder in 2001 and helped cre-ate our own WRJ Haggadah in 2004.

“Besides the traditional Seder Plate’s symbolic foods such as Pesach (lamb shank), matzah (unleavened bread) and Maror (bitter herbs), WRJ Seder Plate includes an orange, signifying that there is a place for all at the Seder regardless of gender or sexual orientation to let our lives be inclusive, welcoming and fruitful.

“The Seder Plate also includes olives, representing the olive branch, the hope for peace that has not yet come to this world,” Frommer con-cluded.

Rabbi Tucker Issues “Rabbinic Declaration on the Imperative to Preserve Life”By Stephen E. Lipken

In line with the shooting in Parkland, FL that killed 17 students and teachers, Temple Israel Center, White Plains, Rabbi Gordon Tucker issued a petition for signature of the Westchester Board of Rabbis.

Citing many statistics, including the fact that the rate of American gun homicides is some 20 times the rate in other wealthy countries of the world and that the Stoneman Doug-las High School killer who had a troubled record of mental

stability was still able to pur-chase an assault weapon, 100% legal under both Florida and Federal law, Tucker referred to Matters of Jewish Law:

“The Torah says (Deuter-onomy 4:9): ‘Take utmost care and watch yourselves scrupu-lously’ and the rabbinic tradi-tion assigned to that clause to free our dwellings from dan-gerous conditions…

“An extension of the above to responsibility for cre-ating hazards in the public do-main is given in the Babylonian Talmud (Avodah Zarah 15b).

There, we are told explicitly that it is forbidden to sell or otherwise provide weapons…to kill or maim, to anyone who can be suspected of intending to use such instruments to do violence to innocent people…

“On the basis of all that is established above, we conclude the obligation to protect the public from dan-gerous weapons must take pre-cedence over an absolute right to bear arms…

“Thus: (1) selling or oth-erwise providing firearms to people who have not been sub-

ject to background checks is a violation of Jewish law; 2) sell-ing…military assault weapons to any person not in the mili-tary or in law enforcement is a violation of Jewish law (and this is especially egregious when the person acquiring the weapon is a minor…and/or has given plausible signs of mental instability); and 3) when a per-son invested with legislative or executive power in society ac-cepts- without protest consci-entious effort to change them, laws that authorize the ac-quisitions…that …official has

abetted—whether by action or inaction—a violation of Jewish law (what is called in in Jewish law ‘’Syu’a Lidevar Aveirah’).”

“Finally, we address our primary audience, the Jews of the United States…We have been moved to make this Dec-laration out of a conviction that the Jewish legal and ethi-cal codes provide crucial di-rection regarding our national epidemic of gun violence,” Tucker said.

Numerous Westchester rabbis have signed the Decla-ration.Rabbi Gordon Tucker

Temple Sholom and AJC Westchester/Fairfield Present an Evening with David Harris

BY STEPHEN E. LIPKEN

Temple Sholom, Green-wich, CT and American Jewish Committee (AJC) Westchester/Fairfield presented “From the Front Lines: An Evening with AJC CEO David Harris on Mon-day, February 5th, attended by over 200 members from Green-wich and outlying Jewish com-munities.

In his welcoming remarks, Temple Sholom Rabbi Mitchell Hurwitz noted that his youngest daughter took part in the AJC

Leadership Training Program. Harris began by relaying

the good news that Israel is truly less isolated today. “I am here to tell you as a front line vocal advo-cate on behalf of AJC that Israel’s global position has never been higher.

“With Israeli haspara (di-plomacy), nations are learning to broaden their political prisms with Israel’s knowledge of cyber security, health security, airport security, counter intelligence…go down the list of what coun-tries need in the 21st Century

and you will find Israel has it in spades,” Harris stated.

Mr. Harris mentioned Stan-ley Fischer, who shepherded Isra-el through the economic crises of 2008-2012 as well as AJC’s policy of taking political leaders to Israel and even Palestinian Ramallah to see it with their own eyes. One result was the Mexican Ambassa-dor to the UN changing their vote in Israel’s favor.

Regarding the question about Polish President Andrzej Duda signing a Bill making it a crime to make statements in-dicating Polish complicity in Holocaust crimes, Harris re-plied that there were no Polish Camps. “They were German. At Auschwitz, ‘Arbeit Macht Frei’ is a German slogan.

However, there was the Jedwabne Pogrom with some Polish involvement. That is where the law is problematic.”

“We must not become Bi-nary Jews. I would like to argue that we Jews need to keep an

open mind,” Harris concluded.“David Harris offered a

very comprehensive view of world events this evening,” AJC Director Scott Richman observed. “He spoke about many different issues, from Israel to anti-Semitism and

the current concern of the Bill that is pending before the Polish President…and the po-larization that exists in this country…We need to main-tain open, respectful dialogue with one another…,” Richman stressed.

Reconstructing Judaism. Deeply rooted. Boldly relevant.Reconstructing Judaism.

This phrase embodies the de-cades-long, evolving mission of all who have been a part of Reconstructionist Judaism.

Now, Reconstructing Ju-daism is the new name of the central organization of the Reconstructionist movement, replacing the former: Recon-structionist Rabbinical Col-lege and Jewish Reconstruc-tionist Communities.

Reconstructing Judaism runs a rabbinical seminary, serves and supports roughly 100 congregations across North America and abroad, cultivates Jewish living that is relevant to today’s Jews, provides resources that foster Jewish living and learning, brings Jewish values to the public sphere and elevates youth at two Reconstruction-ist Jewish camps.

“As much as it repre-sents change, the name Re-constructing Judaism signals continuity with the organiza-tion’s history of training rab-bis, supporting congregations and havurot, and spurring innovation in creative Jewish expression,” said Rabbi Debo-rah Waxman, Ph.D., president of Reconstructing Judaism.

“Our new name is so expres-sive of what we do and what we always aspire to do. More than ever, Judaism must be about doing, and our name is about doing.”

The organization’s rabbin-ical seminary will remain the “Reconstructionist Rabbinical College” until the end of the academic year, when its name will change to the “College for Reconstructing Judaism.”

The adoption of a new name and visual identity fol-lows a yearlong, quintessen-tially Reconstructionist pro-cess that placed a high value on discussion, participation and the sharing of ideas. Members of North American Reconstructionist communi-ties were invited to share in-sights in a series of town halls and surveys that took place in-person and online. All told, more than 1,000 Reconstruc-tionist rabbis, congregants, educators, staff members and students, from Los Angeles to New York, from Portland to Montreal, shared their in-sights.

The discussions focused on big picture ideas about how the organization serves the communities and ways

the Reconstructionist story can be told to inspire more people to engage in Jewish communities and experi-ences.

A communications con-sulting firm with a long track-record working with nonprof-its helped guide the process. The firm’s primary contact with the organization noted that this “was the most par-ticipatory process I’ve ever seen.”

Among the tangible results of the deliberative process was the decision to keep a form of the word Re-

constructionist as part of the organization’s name. The idea was considered to drop the word Reconstructionist, but Reconstructionists across the continent made clear they were strongly attached to the word and considered it part of their identity.

“We are not taking on a new identity. It is more accurate to say that we are adopting a new expression of our identity,” explained Seth Rosen, who chairs Recon-structing Judaism’s board of governors. “This was a deeply Reconstructionist process

that drew on the thinking and ideas of so many. We gained a great deal of insight into what matters most to the people who are part of our move-ment.” It is worth noting that Reconstructing Judaism was the memoir title of the late Rabbi Eisenstein: the first president of the Reconstruc-tionist Rabbinical College who built upon the ideas of his father-in-law, Rabbi Mor-decai Kaplan, and launched Reconstructionist Judaism as a movement.

“Many of us grew up in a time when Judaism was simply a matter of being; we were Jewish because of the neighborhood we grew up in, the food we ate, the culture we absorbed. Not anymore,” said Waxman. “Our new name represents an active commit-ment to doing. ‘Reconstruct-ing’ is the best expression of our approach to Judaism.”

The phrase — “Deeply rooted. Boldly relevant.” — ex-presses a reverence for Jew-ish tradition and its constant quest to cultivate Jewish expe-riences that are meaningful.

The graphic symbol — leaves sprouting from the ground and growing into the

world,” they note, is meant to reflect a vision of Judaism that is at once grounded and flourishing, as embodied by the Reconstructionist com-munities, teachers, learners and rabbis the organization serves. It suggests a connec-tion to tradition in its ground-edness, and continuous growth and reinvention. It exemplifies the spreading of joy, innovation and resilience. The hand-drawn style of the symbol and its accompanying typography speak to the hei-mish and unique personality of each of our communities, our rabbinical students and our rabbis.”

This is going to be a busy year for Reconstructing Juda-ism as it introduces this new expression of its identity, marks the 50th anniversary of the seminary’s founding, and gathers with its affiliated communities for the first Re-constructionist Convention in eight years from Nov. 15-18 in Philadelphia. All the while, the 100 affiliated Reconstruc-tionist communities — and more than 400 rabbis — will continue building a meaning-ful Jewish future and more perfect world.

US Embassy in Israel to Move to Jerusalem in May

On February 23, 2018 The U.S. State Department an-nounced that the U.S. Embassy in Israel would be moved to Jerusalem and set forth the following details by De-partment Spokesperson, Heather Nauert;

“In May, the United States plans to open a new U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem. The opening will coincide with Israel’s 70th anniversary. The embassy will initially be located in the Arnona neighborhood, in a modern build-ing that now houses consular operations of U.S. Consul-ate General Jerusalem. Those consular operations, in-cluding American citizen and visa services, will continue at the Arnona facility without interruption, as part of the embassy.

“Consulate General Jerusalem will continue to oper-ate as an independent mission with an unchanged man-date, from its historic Agron Road location. Initially, the interim embassy in Arnona will contain office space for the Ambassador and a small staff.

“By the end of next year, we intend to open a new embassy Jerusalem annex on the Arnona compound that will provide the Ambassador and his team with expand-ed interim office space. In parallel, we have started the search for a site for our permanent embassy to Israel, the planning and construction of which will be a longer-term undertak-ing. We are excited about taking this historic step, and look forward with anticipation to the May opening.”

The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) President Morton A. Klein remarked that moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem, “fulfills international and domestic law; comports with both major U.S. political parties’ commitments; acknowledges the reality of the loca-tion of Israel’s government; is more convenient for U.S. personnel; and enhances U.S. secu-rity and Middle East peace prospects.”

Mayor Belmont to Join Mayors United Against Anti-Semitism Campaign

On Thursday, Febru-ary 15, Mayor Ron Belmont of the Town/Village of Har-rison joined forces with mayors throughout the United States and Europe by signing onto the AJC’s (American Jewish Com-mittee’s) Mayors United Against Anti-Semitism campaign. Launched in 2015, the initiative was developed to address the alarming spread of anti-Semitism throughout the world.

Recognizing the unique position mayors and local officials have, the AJC is committed to enlisting the support of these elected officials to create tolerant and inclusive communities. To date, over 350 mayors and municipal leaders in the United States and 200 Euro-pean mayors have joined the initiative and the list continues to grow. By adding his name to the list, Mayor Belmont is pledging to advance respectful coexistence and affirming that anti-Semitism has no place in Harrison.

Clergy, staff and lay leaders from Congregation Emanu-El of Westchester, 2125 Westchester Avenue, Rye, brought this campaign to Mayor Belmont's attention. "This is about standing up for what is right," said Rabbi Howard Goldsmith. "In this age of divisiveness when lines of civil discourse are blurred all too often, Mayor Belmont has staked out an important position for the Town/Village of Harrison. We are proud to partner with him and all of Harrison on this vital issue."

The Culture of Israel Celebrated at Jewish National Fund’s Shuk Shack

On January 31, in honor of Tu BiShvat, Jewish National Fund transformed the IAC into a Shuk, or Israeli market. Appropriately named, Shuk Shack, this inaugural celebra-tion was designed as a multi-sensory event where the over 800 guests in attendance were nourished in body, mind, and soul and experienced various aspects of what makes Israel so unique and special and what JNF has contributed to the nation. The party featured ex-quisite wine tasting, delicious street food, music, dancing, and a look into Israel’s multi-

faceted culture. The eve-

ning offered guests an oppor-tunity to learn about the people and land of Is-rael as well as the vital work of Jewish National Fund, its vision and how it pro-vides a unique voice in building a prosperous and secure future for Israel. JNF strives to bring an enhanced quality of life to all of Israel’s citizens and trans-

late these advancements to the world beyond. JNF is “green-ing” the desert with millions of trees.

Rabbis from Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem Speak in Westchester

Rabbis certified by a groundbreaking program devel-oping pluralistic and egalitarian spiritual Jewish leaders in Israel will be speaking at two Westches-ter synagogues in March on how they are succeeding at breaking down Israel’s rigid religious barri-ers and boundaries.

The focus of their talks, to be delivered in panel discussions, lectures, study groups, and pri-vate sessions, will be “Israel@70: Judaism and Democracy,” an iEn-gage lecture series, with a special focus on religious pluralism.

Rabbi Dr. Shraga Bar-On of the Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem, who co-heads the pro-gram said the visiting group views itself as partners with the North American community in develop-ing pluralistic Judaism in Israel.

“The rabbis emerging from our program are creating an Isra-el that will be meaningful and en-riching also for North Americans and their children,” he added.

Bar-On, along with Rabbi Avital Hochstein and Dr. Moti Zei-ra, will be at Bet Torah Congrega-tion in Mount Kisco on March 18.

Rabbi Dr. Shraga Bar-On is director of the David Hartman Center for Intellectual Excellence, and leads the Israeli Rabbinical Beit Midrash, David Hartman Fel-lows, and Maskilot programs. He is an academic advisor to the “Lev Aharon” program and member of the Institute’s management team.

Rabbi Avital Hochstein is a research fellow at the Sha-lom Hartman Institute and has learned, taught, and done re-search at the institute for more than 15 years. She is currently working on her Ph.D., focusing on Talmud, in the Gender Stud-ies Program at Bar Ilan University. She serves as the president of Ha-

dar, Israel.Dr. Moti Zeira is a co-

founder and CEO of HaMidrasha Educational Center for Jewish Life in Israel and a graduate of the Hartman Rabbinic Beit Mi-drash. A kibbutz resident, Zeira’s work is committed to ensuring that all Jews have access to their birthright, heritage, and benefits of Jewish religious and spiritual community life.

The participants in the speaking tour are graduates of the Hartman Beit Midrash for Israeli Rabbis, developed by the Shalom Hartman Institute and HaMidra-sha at Oranim. The program, now nearing completion of its second cohort, is cultivating a new gen-eration of leaders who are re-shaping the Israeli public sphere to reflect and respect religious pluralism in Israel and around the world.

The program brings togeth-er voices showcasing the diver-sity of Israeli-Jewish experience to define an Israeli rabbinical leadership model for our times. More than 30 participants and graduates - men and women from a wide range of experiences and religious traditions - are already leading institutes and communi-

ties across urban and rural Israel.A second group , Rabbis

Orit Avnery, Rani Jaeger, and Dani Segal , will be at Bet Am Shalom Synagogue in White Plains on May 6.

Rabbi Dr. Orit Avnery is a research fellow at the Shalom Hartman Institute. She holds both bachelor’s and master’s de-grees from the Hebrew Univer-sity of Jerusalem, a PhD from Bar Ilan University, and has studied at the Matan Women’s Institute for Jewish Studies.

Rabbi Rani Jaeger is a re-search fellow and faculty mem-ber at the Shalom Hartman Institute. Jaeger is pursuing his doctorate at Bar-Ilan University in the Interdisciplinary Program of Culture and Hermeneutics. He is one of the founders of Beit Tefilah Israeli, a groundbreak-ing secular synagogue in Tel Aviv.

Rabbi Dani Segal is the co-director of the Shalom Hartman Institute and HaMidrasha at Oranim’s Beit Midrash for New Israeli Rabbis, and the Rabbi of Hamidrasha in Ein Prat. He is the former rabbi of Yishuv Alon, a heterogeneous Israeli commu-nity committed to secular- reli-gious coexistence.

The Shalom Hartman Insti-tute is a pluralistic center of re-search and education deepening and elevating the quality of Jew-ish life in Israel and around the world. Through their work, they are redefining the conversation about Judaism in modernity, re-ligious pluralism, Israeli democ-racy, Israel and world Jewry, and the relationship with other faith communities.

17th Annual Westchester Jewish Film FestivalThe Jacob Burns Film Center

(JBFC) has announced a compel-ling lineup—featuring a robust mix of 41 documentaries and narratives—for the 17th annual Westchester Jewish Film Festival (WJFF), including all 10 episodes of The Writer, one of the latest in Is-rael’s brilliant streak of TV dramas. The festival spans two and half weeks from March 13–29, with all screenings and events taking place at JBFC, a nonprofit cultural arts center and one of the most suc-cessful suburban film houses in the country located in Pleasantville.

Opening night will feature the documentary Itzhak, a joy-ful, award-winning portrait of the extraordinary violinist Itzhak Perlman, followed by a Q&A with the renowned filmmaker Alison Chernick and a reception in the Jane Peck Gallery.

The festival features a special showcase of work by iconic actor Alan Arkin, including screenings of The In-Laws, Little Miss Sun-shine, Glengarry Glen Ross and more. In addition, Arkin will par-ticipate in several Skype Q&As fol-lowing specific screenings.

Highlights of this year’s ar-ray of new films from Israel and around the globe include:

• Eitan Anner’s A Quiet

Heart, the story of a secular young woman in present day Jerusalem seeking refuge from the pressure of her life as a concert pianist;

• Amichai Greenberg’s The Testament, a provocative drama based on a true story about a me-ticulous historian leading a sig-nificant debate against holocaust deniers;

• Avi Issacharoff and Lior Raz’s Fauda, a two-sided story of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The festival will feature a sneak preview of the first three episodes of Season 2 of the hit TV series--before it debuts on Netflix;

• Ferenc Török’s 1945 (Hun-gary), a complex and highly-laud-ed portrait of a society trying to come to terms with the horrors they’ve experienced;

• Nabil Ayouch’s Razzia (Mo-

rocco), which explores the forbid-den desires and fragile dreams of five Moroccans living in Casa-blanca today;

• Festival Centerpiece - GI Jews: Jewish Americans in World War II, which tells the story of the 550,000 men and women who fought against Hitler, bigotry, and intolerance in defense of their re-ligion and values; and

• Present/Absent, a work-in-progress documentary from JBFC inaugural Israeli Woman Filmmaker-in-Residence, Rozeen Bsharat that blurs the line be-tween fact and fiction.

In addition to an interna-tional slate of engaging, thought-provoking films, there will be a variety of compelling filmmaker Q&As, including a special docu-mentary double-feature event

with Lily Rivlin, director of Heath-er Booth: Changing the World, and Leah Galant, JBFC Creative Culture Fellow and director of Death Metal Grandma.

This year’s program is curat-ed once again by New-York based Programmer Bruni Burres. For

over 20 years, Burres has worked at the intersection of arts, culture, and human rights as a festival di-rector and curator, media educa-tor, creative producer, and social media strategist. Burres is the cowriter and associate producer of Beyond My Grandfather Allen-

de, which won Best Documentary at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival. From 1991 to 2008, she was the director of the Human Rights Watch Film Festival.

Still image from the opening night film Itzhak courtesy of Voyeur FilmsLowey Hosts Gun Violence Roundtable with Students and Law Enforcement

Congresswoman Nita Lowey (D-NY17/Rockland-Westchester), on the heels of the deadly Parkland school shooting that left at least 17 people dead, joined Lower Hudson Valley students and local law enforcement for a roundtable discussion on gun violence and prevention. Low-ey heard directly from partici-pants about the need for com-monsense gun safety reform and discussed her efforts to prevent gun violence.

Joining Congresswoman Lowey at the roundtable were Frank Williams, Executive Director of the City of White Plains Youth Bureau; Det. Gil-berto Lopez, School Resource Officer for the White Plains Police Department; Det. Mor-gan Cole-Hatchard from the Pleasantville Police Depart-ment; New Castle’s Commu-nity Resource Officer Michelle Mazzocchi; and more than a dozen high school students.

Lowey invited students from White Plains, Blind Brook, Horace Greeley and Pleasant-ville High Schools along with a White Plains resident that at-tends Iona Prep, to participate in the roundtable after several reached out to her expressing their fear of gun violence in their communities, particu-larly in their schools, as well as their frustration with congres-sional inaction on gun violence.

“The bottom line is that students have a right to go to

school free from fear, not hav-ing to worry about anything other than expanding their horizons and minds,” said Con-gresswoman Lowey. “These mass shootings, including the tragedy in Parkland, Florida, continue to shake all of us to the core, and students are left fearful for their safety. That’s unacceptable, and congres-sional Republicans must join Democrats in commonsense reforms to reduce gun violence, keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people, and improve public safety. The students I spoke with today demand ac-tion, and it’s past time that the Republican-controlled Con-gress take meaningful steps to end this nation’s gun crisis.”

According to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), on average 96 Americans, in-cluding seven children and teens, are killed with guns ev-ery day, while nearly 13,000 are the victims of gun homicides every year. According to The American Journal of Medicine, among high-income nations, 91 percent of children 14 and under who were killed by a firearm lived in the United States. The U.S. has the highest rate of gun ownership in the world as well as a significantly higher gun homicide rate than other advanced countries.

“Violence has once again visited our community,” said Frank Williams, Executive

Director of the City of White Plains Youth Bureau. “In Park-land, Florida, fourteen youth and three teachers died at the hands of another. As a nation, we are better than this. We must all work together to end this plague. We must listen to our youth and empower them to help us rid this evil. Today in White Plains, we heard the voices of our youth and we will work to end this violence.”

Lowey is a member of the congressional Gun Violence Prevention Task Force and has been a leader in fighting to prevent gun violence, in-cluding working to strengthen background checks, close the terror gap loophole, and ban assault weapons and bump stocks. Last Congress, Lowey introduced the NICS Com-munity Protection Act, which would close the Charleston loophole by providing 14 busi-nesses days rather than three for a background check to be completed by the FBI’s Na-tional Instant Criminal Back-ground Check System (NICS). In February, Lowey sent a letter to House Speaker Paul Ryan urging him to allow a vote to lift the ban on federal gun violence research. As Rank-ing Member on the House Appropriations Committee, Lowey has repeatedly offered an amendment in the commit-tee to provide funding for the CDC to conduct gun violence prevention research.

Mazel TovFulbright Grant takes Professor Yasmine Kalkstein to Israel

Like many educators, Yasmine Kalkstein, an associ-ate professor of Psychology at Mount Saint Mary College in Newburgh, is spending her sabbatical immersed in re-search.

But instead of hitting the books at home, Kalkstein is

carrying out her work in Israel.Kalkstein recently re-

ceived a Fulbright Senior Scholar grant from the U.S. State Department. The grant sponsors her ongoing research into women’s medical deci-sion-making regarding child-birth, including delivery meth-

ods and breastfeeding options. It’s a topic she’s been exploring for years, often alongside her Mount students through the college’s Summer Undergradu-ate Research Experience.

Kalkstein has been work-ing with Tayla Miron-Shatz, di-rector of the Center for Medi-

cal Decision Making at Ono Academic College in Israel, on several projects since meeting her in 2013. She’s dreamed of a chance to work with Miron-Shatz in person, and the Ful-bright grant was just what she needed to make that collabora-tion a reality.

So in the fall of 2017, Kalk-stein and her husband rented out their home in Monroe, packed up their two young children, and moved nearly 6,000 miles away to Rehovot, Israel.

“This has been unlike anything I’ve ever experi-enced,” the Psychology pro-fessor explained. “As a Jewish person, I’m in my homeland with my people, so there’s a meaningful emotional and his-torical connection.”

Navigating the divide be-tween tourist and a citizen, coupled with raising a family in a foreign country, has pre-sented plenty of cultural learn-ing opportunities, she said.

Some differences include using a phone app instead a meter to pay for parking, hav-

ing a one-day weekend, and learning a different social par-adigm. For example, in Israel, “People don’t hesitate to give their opinion, but also invite you into their life,” she said.

Even though Kalkstein has visited the country before, living there offers a new set of challenges. Grocery shopping, buying car insurance, and oth-er everyday activities proved difficult at first due to lan-guage and cultural differences.

“I’m experiencing what it means to be an immigrant,” she said. “What it means to try to put your kids into a school system in a foreign language with different cultural norms, what it feels like to want to do everything you can to fit in and yet struggling to always figure out the nuances…this is what living in another country is like. But I love it, because I love being an explorer.”

Kalkstein will return to the United States and resume her classes at the Mount in Fall 2018 semester.

Mount Saint Mary Col-lege, is ranked a Top-Tier Re-gional University by U.S. News & World Report offers bach-elor’s and master’s degree pro-grams preparing students for careers in healthcare, business, education, social services, com-munication/media and more.

Irvington Teen Renovates Youth Lounge for Young Women of Local Residential Treatment Facility

In honor of her Bat Mitzvah, Rebecca Strauss, 13, of Irvington, renovated the youth lounge at the Sal-ly & Anthony Mann Center in Hawthorne, a residential treatment facility (RTF) for girls ages 12 to 21 with se-vere emotional challenges, run by the Jewish Board.

Through the proj-ect, created with the help of UJA-Federation of New York’s Give a Mitzvah — Do a Mitzvah program, Strauss prepared design ideas that she presented to the girls living at the center, which included vibrant purple walls, furnishings, and decorative touches such as stuffed animals and throw pillows. She then set about designing the space, select-

ing samples, and raising funds. Strauss also recruited friends to create a colorful underwater-themed mural.

“Rebecca’s passion for helping others was clearly reflected in her enthusiastic devotion to this project,” said Donna Divon, UJA-Federation’s manager of community and vol-unteer services. “I was delight-ed to help guide her and her family through the process of working with our partner agen-cy, the Jewish Board, in creat-

ing a special and safe space for the young clients at the Mann Center. Rebecca voiced her hopes that the lounge would be a place for these young women to relax, build friendships, and flourish.”

Inspired by the new space, the residents named it the “Empowerment Lounge” and started their own mitzvah club to give back to the com-munity.

For more than 140 years, the Jewish Board of Family and

Children’s Services (The Jewish Board) has been helping New Yorkers realize their potential and live as independently as possible. They promote resil-ience and recovery by address-ing all aspects of an individual’s life, including mental and phys-ical health, family, employment and education. Across the five boroughs and in Westchester, they serve more than 43,000 New Yorkers from all religious, ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds each year.

Students Win Grant for Proposal to Bring Israeli Water Innovation to AfricaThe World Jewish Con-

gress and Israel’s Consulate in New York awarded a $10,000 grant on February 15 to Bing-hamton University students Talia Chasen, Gabriel Gang, and Hannah Werner, first

place winners of the third an-nual Campus Pitch Competi-tion aimed at encouraging stu-dents to propose creative ways to change the discourse about Israel and anti-Semitism at colleges and universities.

The winning team from Binghamton proposed orga-nizing a campus-wide “Water Gala” to help raise funds to bring Israeli innovation to Af-rican villages to help alleviate the ongoing water crisis. The

team vied against four other student groups from NYU, Ba-ruch College, the University of Pittsburgh, and Cornell Uni-versity, for a chance to win the grant, which had initially been set at $5,000. World Jewish Congress CEO and Executive Vice President surprised the students by raising the first prize to $10,000 and awarding the other four finalist groups $5,000 each to carry out their initiatives as well.

“College campuses have

become one of the strongest frontlines in the fight for Isra-el’s legitimacy. It is a fight that we shouldn’t have to have, but it is one that we must have, as Jewish and pro-Israel students feel silenced and threatened by the dangerous initiatives of those seeking to boycott and delegitimize Israel and Jewish communities,” WJC CEO Rob-ert Singer said. “The groups presenting today have proven their courage and determi-nation in striving for a more

balanced dialogue and a safer space. The World Jewish Con-gress stands fully behind their advocacy efforts. Together, we can and will change the con-versation about Israel and anti-Semitism on campus.”

Israel’s Consul General Dani Dayan said, “They say we are the start-up nation, but I believe we are the innova-tion nation. When it comes to public diplomacy, however, it can be difficult for us to come up with new ideas. We need more innovative, out of the box thinking and we believe that students and the next genera-tion can give us ideas that are maybe overlooked. The other reason for this competition is so important is because the battle for Israel’s legitimacy, for justice, is mainly fought on campuses, and you are our young ambassadors.

The other finalists in the 2018 Campus Pitch Competi-tion included NYU student Rebecca Stern, who proposed a campus roundtable featuring panels of elected officials from

WJC CEO Robert Singer with Binghamton University students Gabriel Gang, Talia Chasen, and Hannah Werner. (c) Shahar Azran

the US and Israel with a wide variety of viewpoints; Cornell University students Adam Sha-piro and Emily Klimberg, who plan to organize a mentorship program pairing Israeli men-tors with non-Jewish students; Baruch College students Gold-ie Gross and Ben Davidov, who envision bringing students of all backgrounds together to create a mural representing Is-

rael, the Holocaust, and other issues of the Jewish world; and University of Pittsburgh students Steven Field, Kathryn Fleisher, and Serena Mlawsky, who plan to create a four-part seminar about Israel that can’t be found in the classroom.

Cory Weiss, the WJC Spe-cial Projects Coordinator, one of the organizers of the event, was raised in Elmsford.

The Campus Pitch Initia-tive debuted in New York in the fall of 2015 for students in the Tri-State area, with the first competition being held in spring 2016. The project gradually expanded across the United States and to Lon-don in 2017, and is expected to launch in Europe and Latin America in the coming semes-ters.

Wine Pairing Tips for PassoverIsrael’s leading wineries

have released Passover food and wine-pairing tips match-ing the traditional four cups of wine with different dishes from throughout the holiday Seder meal.

The recommendations, from Israel’s leading Golan Heights and Galil Mountain wineries, and their North American importer, Yarden Inc., are for the holiday that be-gins the night of Friday, March 30, and ends the evening of Saturday, April 7.

For the traditional mat-zah ball soup appetizer, with its lush chicken stock and dill, garlic and onion notes, Yarden recommends pairing with a range of popular whites, from a medium-bodied, lean chardon-nay, to a crisper, herbal sauvi-gnon blanc. The soup can also nicely accompany a floral viog-nier or a tart semillon. Alterna-tively, Yarden recommends its 2016 Hermon White – a blend of sauvignon blanc, chardon-nay, viognier and semillon, exhibiting bright notes of cit-rus, melon, peach, green apple

and tropical fruit.

For the first course of the meal, gefilte fish, with its mel-low white-fish flavor and spicy h o r s e r a d -ish accom-p a n i m e nt , Yarden rec-o m m e n d s a crisp, tart s au v i g n o n blanc to play off the spice, al-though an oaked viog-nier could also work. Yarden also

suggests that the Hermon White would be the perfect match for this traditional Sed-er dish.

In most U.S. Jewish homes, the main course usu-ally brings a hearty chicken dish of some kind, or a beef

brisket. For the chicken, Yarden recommends ei-ther a medium-bodied, oaked chardonnay or a floral biognier for a white, or a fuller-bodied merlot for a red. However, one can also choose the 2014 Galil Yiron, a blend of merlot, syrah, and petit verdot, with abundant aromas of ber-ries, cherries, and plum jam, on a seasoned back-ground of vanilla, clove, and toasted oak. This well-balanced, full¬bodied wine has a long, classic finish.

For brisket, a cabernet sauvignon is the natural twin, and Yarden offers its Gilgal Cabernet Sauvignon. The Gil-gal Cab features ripe cherry and cassis fruit notes layered with rich oak, vanilla and spice, with a good texture and

velvet structure, which smoothly handles the fla-vorful and dense brisket.

Most U.S. Jews go with the classic coconut macaroons or chocolate torte for dessert at the Seder, which of-fers a chance to cap the festivities off with a dessert wine such as gewurtztramin-er. Yarden’s 2016 Gewurtztramin-er features lay-

2014 Galil Yiron

2016 Hermon White

ers of passion fruit, kiwi and lychee fruit characters, with floral and warm spice notes, boasting a complex finish and hint of sweetness, so the wine plays off nicely with coconut or chocolate.

“American Jews are in-creasingly looking to find the best possible wine to go with every course in their Passover Seder,” said Dorit Ben Simon, international marketing man-ager for Yarden Inc. “This year, when we ask ‘why is this night different from all other nights?’, we can also say that we have ideal Passover wine and food pairings.” Yarden’s 2016 Gewurtztraminer

Don’t Pass Over Ben’s Catered Holiday DinnerThe Ben’s Kosher Deli-

catessen Restaurant & Ca-terers’ motto has long been that holidays should be a time to kick-back and relax with family, rather than spending long hours cook-ing and cleaning. Celebrate freedom, and the story of the exodus from Egypt, with the company’s famous Ca-tered Holiday Dinner for 10, featuring mouthwatering gefilte fish, delicious matzo ball soup, fresh-cut coleslaw and more.

According to Jewish tradition, it is forbidden to eat leavened food products, such as bread, because, in their rush to escape from Egypt, the Jews were unable to wait for bread to rise. Instead, they ate matzo, a non-leavening cracker-like food, which has become synonymous with Jewish culture, and its holidays.

In recognition of this custom, Ben’s Complete Holiday Dinner for 10 features 12 matzo balls, along with 10 pieces of gefilte fish, one-quart of chopped liver, four quarts of chicken soup, and macaroons for dessert. The package, which costs $349.90, also includes a choice of three entrées — five roast chickens, a whole roast turkey or four pounds of sliced brisket —and two side dishes, such as broccoli almandine, sweet potato pudding and much more.

Ben’s Friends Preferred Patrons who purchase this complete Holiday Dinner by Sunday, March 25, 2018 will also receive four “Buy-One-Get-One-Free” on-app coupons; a total savings of over $100.

All seven locations are also offering “Holiday Dinner Extra Goodies,” which can be pre-ordered to ensure that every table is full. For those looking to bring a dish – whether it’s an appetizer, dessert, or another signature dish, Ben’s takeout counter has everything you need to complement a holiday dinner.

In observance of the holiday, all Ben’s Kosher Deli locations will close at 3 p.m. on Friday, March 30, and will re-open Sunday, April 8 for normal business hours.

For more information regarding Ben’s Kosher Delicatessen Restaurant & Caterers, or its Catered Holiday Dinner for 10, visit www.bensdeli.net.

ADL Releases Audit of Anti-Semitic IncidentsIn its annual Audit of Anti-

Semitic Incidents, ADL found that the number of anti-Semitic incidents in the U.S. rose 57 per-cent in 2017, the largest single-year increase on record and the second highest number report-ed since ADL started tracking such data in 1979. The sharp rise was in part due to a significant increase in incidents in schools and on college campuses, which nearly doubled for the second year in a row.

ADL identified 1,986 anti-Semitic incidents perpetrated throughout the United States in 2017. This is an increase of 57% over the 1,267 incidents reported in 2016. For the first time since at

least 2010, an incident occurred in every US state. The states with the highest numbers of incidents were New York (380 incidents and 18 in Westchester County}), California (268 incidents), New Jersey (208 incidents), Massa-chusetts (177), Florida (98), and Pennsylvania (96). These states combined made up more than half (62%) of the total number of incidents. The number of in-cidents tends to correlate with large Jewish populations.

On the release of the report, Congresswoman Nita Lowey {D-NY 17/ Rockland-Westchester}, Ranking Member on the House Appropriations Committee and co-chair of the House Bipartisan

Taskforce for Combating Anti-Semitism stated, “This surge in anti-Semitic incidents is de-plorable and unacceptable, and must be rooted out of our soci-ety, along with all other forms of bigotry, xenophobia and hate. Anti-Semitic vandalism, threats, and violence do not reflect the values of the vast majority of New Yorkers, who must stand together and speak out to uphold tolerance and acceptance, and to reverse this trend of harassment and intimidation.”

The 1,986 total incidents can be subdivided into three ma-jor categories: (1) of harassment (where a Jewish person or group of people feel harassed by the

perceived anti-Semitic words, spoken or written, or actions of someone else); (2)vandalism (where property is damaged in a manner that indicates the pres-ence of anti-Semitic animus or in a manner that victimizes Jews for their religious affiliation), and (3) assault (where people’s bodies are targeted with violence accompanied by expressions of anti-Semitic animus).

The largest increase in 2017 was in the category of vandalism. With 952 incidents recorded, this is an 86% increase over the 510 incidents in 2016. The dramatic increase in anti-Semitic acts of vandalism is particularly con-cerning, because it indicates that the perpetrators feel emboldened enough to break the law.

In 2017, there were 1,015 instances of harassment, an increase of 41% over the 721 in-cidents reported in 2016. One hundred sixty-three of the ha-rassment cases were part of the spree of bomb threats made against Jewish institutions in the first quarter of 2017. If those bomb threats were not included

in the total number of harass-ment cases, the total would be 852, an increase of 18% over the 2016 figure.

Thankfully, the number of assaults with perceived anti-Semitic animus decreased to 19 in 2017; a decrease of 47% com-pared to the 36 assaults in 2016.

Anti-Semitic incidents took place in a wide variety of locations, including places of business, private homes, public areas such as parks and streets, Jewish institutions, schools, and colleges/universities. Although the largest number of incidents typically occur in public areas, in 2017 K-12 schools surpassed public areas as the locations with the most anti-Semitic in-cidents, at 457 incidents being reported in K-12 schools and 455 in public areas. For public areas, this amounted to an increase of 56% over the 294 incidents in that location type in 2016. For K-12 schools, this is a dramatic increase of 94% over the 235 in-cidents in 2016. Anti-Semitic in-cidents on college and university campuses also increased in 2017

to a total of 204, an 89% increase over the 108 incidents in 2016.

Jewish institutions, includ-ing Jewish schools, community centers, and museums as well as synagogues, were the targets of 342 anti-Semitic incidents in 2017. This is an increase of 101% over the 170 incidents recorded in 2016. However, this number includes 163 bomb threats made in the first quarter of the year; the vast majority of which were alleged to have been perpetrated by a troubled Jewish teenager located in Israel. Excluding those bomb threats, the total number of incidents targeting Jewish institutions is 179, an increase of 5% over the 170 incidents target-ing those places in 2016.

The Audit of Anti-Semitic Incidents is composed of crimi-nal and non-criminal incidents of harassment, vandalism, and assault against individuals and groups as reported to ADL by vic-tims, law enforcement, and the media.

has advantages. Everyone mat-ters. Any time someone wants to pitch in, their help is always wel-come and needed. Things feel more personal. Gatherings are more intimate. People look out for one another. There is, how-ever, one major disadvantage:

resources are usu-ally very l i m i te d . L i m i t e d m o n e y m e a n s that many s m a l l c o n g r e -g a t i o n s d o n ’ t

have a building of their own or clergy. This puts great demands on the lay leadership who form an even smaller group within the membership. Small congrega-tions often feel overlooked with-in the larger Jewish community. CLAL’s Rabbinic Service Corps is trying to change that.

Launched in 2015 under the banner, #small but proud, the Rabbinic Service Corps is a program that offers clergy visits, consultation, education, pasto-ral care and strategic planning to small congregations around the country. CLAL, the National Jewish Center for Learning and Leadership recognized a need: small congregations are often underserved because they are in remote areas, or they are aging, or they are just starting, or they are independent of denomina-tional affiliation. CLAL raised funds to be able to offer services for those congregations who have no clergy support.

Thanks to the cadre of rabbis who have participated in CLAL’s competitive Rabbis

W i t h o u t Borders fel-l o w s h i p , there are r a b b i s around the US who are particularly open to to-day’s chal-lenges. Here in Westchester, there are three RWB Fellows serving three different com-munities. Rabbi Jaymee Alpert serves Congregation Kneses Tifereth Israel in Port Chester. She is very active in the local community and has founded Neshama Body and Soul, a practice that combines exer-cise and prayer. Rabbi Leora Frankel is the Assistant Rabbi at Community Synagogue of Rye and an avid Israeli dancer. Rabbi Ben Newman is the founder and spiritual leader of Shtiebel, a startup shul in Dobbs Ferry.

RWB Fel-lows participate in a year of regular meetings and study in New York and/or California. Upon completing their cohort year they are invited into an ac-tive online conversation with other RWB’s and are eligible to attend the annual RWB Re-treat. The Retreats strengthen the connections among rabbis from across the denomina-tional spectrum, expose rabbis to the creative work that others are doing, and continue to chal-lenge rabbis to wrestle with the issues with which our society is grappling. Past retreats have examined positive psychology, and disruptive innovation, for

example. These RWB rabbis have volunteered their time and expertise to work with small congregations.

Applying for assistance is straightforward. The process begins when a congregation submits a request for service, http://rabbiswithoutborders.org/what-we-offer/, after which the coordinator of the Rabbinic Service Corps, Rabbi Helaine Ettinger, follows up with a phone call. There is a thorough intake process to learn of the particular needs of each congregation. These conversations help clarify what kind of help the Rabbinic Service Corps can provide. Does the congregation need a rabbi to consult with them? Does a congregation need to be connected with another con-

gregation? Does the congregation need emotional support? Does the congregation need a visit from a rabbi? Then the Rabbinic Service Corps matches the congregation with a rabbi who will be best suited to their

particular needs. The members of a small

congregation in Roswell, NM tearfully thanked the rabbi who came to them for Shabbat and said, “This shows we have not been forgotten.”

Rabbis Without Borders and the Rabbinic Service Corps believe that no individual Jew or community should be for-gotten simply because they are small or unconnected to larger Jewish systems. To learn more about CLAL’s programs, visit www.CLAL.org.

New Federal Tax Law Affects Seniors and Individuals with DisabilitiesBY BERNARD A. KROOKS, CERTIFIED

ELDER LAW ATTORNEY

The Tax Cut and Jobs Act was enacted while most of us were away for the holi-days at the end of 2017. Much has been written about the changes made to corporate tax rates and those of certain businesses, as well as the elim-ination of certain itemized de-ductions for individuals. Less publicized, however, are the tax law changes made that will have an effect on seniors and individuals with disabilities. Here’s a summary of some of the most important changes in that area:

There were two very posi-tive changes to ABLE accounts. ABLE accounts are accounts that can be set up for a person with disabilities who became disabled prior to age 26. These accounts can benefit from tax-free growth while not dis-qualifying the beneficiary for government benefits. An indi-vidual can have only one ABLE account and contributions

are capped at $15,000 a year. ABLE accounts are similar to 529 accounts, but there are a number of differences. 529 accounts are used to pay for qualified education expenses, while ABLE accounts are used to pay for qualified disability expenses. Prior to the new tax law, it was not possible to move money between a 529 account and an ABLE account without paying penalties and taxes. This created a problem for many who set up 529 accounts upon the birth of a child only to learn a few years later that the child has Autism or some other disability and will likely not need the money for higher education. The child will, how-ever, need the money for other items necessary to improve his quality of life. Commencing in 2018, you can now roll a 529 ac-count into an ABLE account of the same individual or certain family members. The amount rolled over, however, counts towards the $15,000 annual ABLE account contribution limit. Thus, if there have al-

ready been contributions to-taling $15,000 this year, then no rollover from a 529 account is permitted that year.

The second big change relating to ABLE accounts al-lows individuals to contribute an additional $12,000 (above the $15,000 annual limita-tion) to their ABLE account if they have earnings from a job. While there are limitations on who can take advantage of this new provision (for example, it does not apply to folks who participate in certain retire-ment plans), it is a great op-portunity for individuals with disabilities to save money on a tax-free basis without jeopar-dizing their government ben-efits. Remember, individuals with disabilities who receive Supplemental Security In-come (SSI) can have no more than $2,000 in assets (not counting their ABLE account).

Another change with is expected to benefit seniors who have large medical ex-penses is the reduction in the medical expense floor. Prior

to the enactment of the new tax law, individuals could deduct medical expenses as an itemized deduction only if those expenses exceeded 10% of their adjusted gross income. The original ver-sion of the new tax law that emanated from the House of Representatives would have completely eliminated the medical expense deduction. Fortunately, cooler heads pre-vailed in the Senate and not only was the medical expense deduction maintained, it was actually enhanced temporar-ily. For the 2017 and 2018 tax years, the medical expense deduction floor is reduced to 7.5% of adjusted gross income. This should allow more people (especially seniors and others with chronic illnesses) to take advantage of this deduction, although with the increased standard deduction under the new tax law it is unclear how many people will benefit from this provision. Starting in 2019, the medical expense deduction floor reverts back

to 10%.With regard to medical

expenses, keep in mind that the deduction applies only to unreimbursed medical ex-penses. So, if something is covered by insurance, then that portion of the expense is not deductible. Also, the de-duction is only for expenses actually paid during the year, not incurred. So if you have a medical procedure done in December and don’t pay for it until March, the deduction is not available until the year in which it is paid. However, if you paid for the December medical procedure by using your credit card in December, the amount would be deduct-ible in that year even if you didn’t pay the credit card bill until March of the following year. Sound confusing? It is. Make sure you work with a qualified tax professional any time you are dealing with com-plicated tax issues so you don’t get an unwanted letter from the IRS.

Real Estate Matters: Preparing Your Home for Sale Takes Planning and TimeBY JOHN E. BAER, SRES, SRS

It is so important to get your property in its best pos-sible condition prior to offer-ing it for sale. Here are some universally accepted steps you need to take to prepare your home for sale:

Disassociate yourself with your home. You have lived in your home for years, and it’s become part of you, however you got to make that break. Say to yourself this is not my home, it is a house – a product to be sold much like a car in a car dealership.

Depersonalize. Pack up those personal photographs

and family heirlooms. You want buyers to imagine their own photos and items and they can’t do that if yours are there.

Clean, Clean, Clean. Thoroughly dust everywhere. Polish your appliances and faucets and wash your win-dows.

Clear out the clutter. You want buyers to focus on how awesome your space is, not how messy or cluttered it looks. This includes removing practically every item from all surfaces.

Repaint the walls neu-tral colors. Tones like tans,

light gray and off-white allows buyers to focus on the spaces themselves.

Let there be light. Open blinds and shades to let in nat-ural light. Remove heavy dated window treatments that block natural light.

Get rid of bulky furni-ture. Furniture should fit the scale of the room.

Organize your closets. Storage space is a huge selling point, and if your closets are stuffed to the rim, buyers will think you don’t have enough of it.

Make repairs. You want your home to be in the best condition possible. Take care of major defects that could dis-courage buyers.

Improve your landscap-ing. Curb appeal is crucial to a good first impression, so make sure your exterior is immacu-late. Mow the lawn, prune the shrubs, weed the garden, plant flowers.

But here are a number of tasks or steps that take time and which are not frequently discussed when preparing to sell your home:

Take a look at homes for sale on listing sheets to see how attractive homes look.

If you don’t anticipate selling your home in the spring or summer, but rather plan to list it in the fall or winter, make sure to take photos of the out-side when the grass is green and the hedges and garden looks its best.

If you have lived in your home for many years and have more items than you anticipate taking with you to your next move, you may want to rent a dumpster. To help you, con-sider hiring some high school or college age students to do

the heavy lifting.If you are like most peo-

ple you may have old records of bank statements, medical records, financial records, or other items with personal bank accounts, Social Security numbers, etc. that need to be shredded rather than recycled. What you should know is that in Westchester County has a mobile shredding service that moves from town to town which you can find on the County website. And which is free.

Many people choose to advertise furniture or other items on Craigslist. Be aware that there are scammers look-ing for these advertisements. They will claim to be a buyer and will send the seller a fake cashier’s check that looks au-thentic in an amount in excess of the purchase price. The fake buyer (scammer) wants the seller to “just go ahead” and deposit the check. Finally, the scammer requests that the seller return the excess money, typically in cash, by wire trans-fer, or via Western Union. The return payment might go di-rectly back to the buyer (scam-mer) or to a third party, such as a fictitious mover the buyer claims will pick up the items.

The end result is the deposited check is no good, the seller has wired money to the scammer, and no one comes to pick up the advertised items. Advertis-ing items for sale is fine, just do not fall for this scam.

And most importantly, pick the right real estate agent. Selling your home is a transac-tion valued in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and often more, so take the time to choose your agent wisely. You’ll be giv-ing yourself the best chance at achieving the best possible result for the most important persons in your world – you and your family.

key to a successful remodel-ing project. You’ll get a feel for the staff of the company you’re considering during the initial meetings. If you don’t get a good feeling, find some-one else. You need to select a firm that you feel confident will manage all aspects of the job and deal with any con-flicts/problems, efficiently and painlessly.

Answering these ques-tions is not as hard as mak-ing bricks without straw, but you need to give them some thought. If, after meeting with your family, and discuss-ing the four questions, you can answer “yes” to each one, you’re on your way to your Dream Kitchen. However, if you answered negatively to any of them, continue look-ing, until you find someone who can pass the test.

Kitchen & Bath Insider© - The Four Kitchen Questions

BY PAUL BOOKBINDER, M.I.D., C.R.

While waiting for the “destroying angel” to pass over our homes during Pass-over, it gives us time to reflect on the political climate back in 1300 BCE through the pres-ent time and how far we have come.

Once the threat of the Destroyer passes, we can all take a deep breath, and con-centrate on the more impor-tant aspects of the holiday. And that’s when the kitchen becomes the focal point of the evening. As you prepare the seder plates you can’t help thinking about how nice it would be if you had a new kitchen, with a little more space, to ease the prepara-tions. The first step in this process is to talk with a de-signer and get an estimate. Then, as you recline in com-fort, it’s time to ask the Four Kitchen Questions.

The first question is, do you like the design that was created for you? This origi-nal rendition does not have to be the finished product. What you need to determine at this point is, does the de-sign show promise? Did the designer listen to your expla-nation of your lifestyle, your storage needs, your “wish list”, and did they incorpo-rate these parameters into the design? The evolution of a Dream Passover Kitchen usually does not happen in one attempt, but you should be able to tell from the first effort whether or not you and the designer are on the same page. If you can answer this

question positively, proceed to question two. Otherwise, keep shopping.

Why are these cabinets different from all other cabi-nets? The second question pertains to the product that the company is offering. The quality of their construction is usually a direct relation to their cost, however we can-not rule out aesthetics, which play a prominent part in the selection process. If you don’t see one that really appeals to you, look elsewhere. If you answer yes to question two, proceed to number three.

Question three deals with the cost of the cabinets. If money is no object, skip di-rectly to question four, how-ever, if you’re like most of us, we need to dwell on this a little longer. The best way to begin planning a kitchen remodel is to share with your designer the budget that you are com-fortable with. This way, ques-tion three should not be an issue. If your designer heard what you were saying (see question one), the proposed renovation will be within the parameters you initially set. The cabinets will be selected based upon your budget, and then you only have to answer question two. If, however, you did not discuss budget initial-ly, you must ask yourself: are the proposed cabinets within your means?

The fourth and final question is, perhaps, the most important of all. Can I work with these people? The relationship between the company that is doing the work and yourself is the

BY SCOTT SWANEZY

Now that I’m sober, why do I have to deal with these relationship issues? I could be drinking or do-ing drugs again. Getting sober was hard enough! Why do I have to pay all these bills? Why do I have to get along with my boss? I never asked for this! Why should I go to AA/NA meetings? I’ve got better stuff to do. What am I supposed to do on the weekends now? I have no sober friends. No one told me recovery was going to be so difficult.

My clients in recovery have said these same words to me over and over again for the last 18 years. So often that I have begun to believe that the “Why me?” syn-drome is reserved not just for the few, but for the many.

But what does that mean? What is this syndrome? How does it impact my recovery? To state it simply, the “Why me?” syndrome is feeling sorry for oneself and the need to remain sober, while also creating a brand new life in recov-ery. And it’s completely normal.

Creating a newly sober life is not easy. It’s a challenge filled with ups and downs, and no one signs up for that challenge willingly. While it is certainly true that your new life in recovery can be a chal-lenge, falling into the pit of “poor me” or “Why me?” is a mistake. This type of thinking in the addic-tion treatment world has also been referred to as “Stinkin’ Thinkin’”.

Those in recovery are warned about the hazards of adopting such thinking, because it drives one back to the path of relapse and addiction. But what exactly am I going on about with the “Why me?” syndrome, why do so many people experience it, and could it actually open a new door to recovery for someone if greeted with curiosity?

Of those I have worked with in recovery, many would answer “yes” to all of the above. “Why me,” is a normal part of the recovery process, and it’s more about when you are going to experience it, not if. But what if instead of holding it in and trying to block the feel-ing from your mind, you instead allowed it to sit with you? What if you allowed yourself a moment to try to understand it, communi-cate that feeling to others, and do something about it?

The “Why me?” syndrome at a glance is to feel sorry for one-self, but going further, that feeling is rooted in a deep need. The need to express that recovery is ardu-ous, mysterious, and intimidating. How can I sustain this long-term? It’s the need for support and guid-ance to walk this path – no one can

beat addiction on their own.Further, there can be a vis-

ceral reaction to that “Why me?” stirring up feelings of helplessness, loneliness and weakness. These thoughts can lead to anxious and depressed moods, making you feel like it may just be easier to go back to that old life of drinking or using, a much more predictable life in the short term, with substance abuse being the go-to way to deal with relationships and other issues that come up. It can be paralyzing, and it may prevent you from reaching out to get the support you need to make positive changes.

So, what can you do about it? You don’t go on a roadtrip for the potholes, construction or traf-fic. Nonetheless, the bumps in the road still get you to your destina-tion. In order to fully understand something, we need to see the road for what it is.

These are four questions you can answer to understand the power “Why me?” may have over you:1. What purpose does the “Why me?” serve in my recovery right now?2. What is the “Why me?” stopping me from doing in my recovery?3. How can I look at the “Why me?” from a different perspective?4. How can I take the “Why me?” and use it in a way that helps me grow?

The more you understand something, the more you can block the power to change it. To block it out may help in the short-term, but the long-term necessi-tates fully understanding its pur-pose at this stage in your recovery. It could be that you need time to grieve the loss of your previous life. You miss the regularity of us-ing. You miss not having to deal with the complexities of real life relationships. You miss the power to change your mood. And you might not even know yourself all that well. Building a newly sober life is a process of beginning to understand what purpose those substances may have served and finding healthy alternatives.

Don’t just recognize the “Why me?”, but call it out by tell-ing someone supportive of your recovery process about it. Own it and be accountable. In life and re-covery, the “Why me?” could just be a great rationalization you use during the grieving process. The less we own it, the more power it has. You are accountable for your thoughts and feelings and acknowledging that fact will al-low you to move forward. Fail to own it, and it will swim around in your mind, allowing it to go under-

ground and live on for years.Here are two ways you can

call out the “Why me?” syndrome:1. Tell someone about your “Why me?”.2. Ask others you’re close with if they’ve ever had the “Why me?” syndrome.

Honor yourself in the recov-ery process by honoring the “Why me?” Be kind to yourself about your mistakes and imperfections. Love yourself deep down and allow yourself room to heal and grieve.

For many of us, this journey may take days or months. Honor your old life as it was and know that while we can learn things from past decisions, we can’t go back in time. You can’t undo the past, but that fork in the road between contin-ued use and sobriety is critical. It is important to reflect on all that you have experienced. Those experi-ences in sum make you an amazing person, addiction and all!

How can I honor “Why me?”1. Make a list of your pitfalls

during addiction. How have they made you a better person?

2. Write down what you miss most about your life before the road to recovery. How would you replace those things?

3. List what skills and per-sonal strengths you have used to get through your addiction.

For so many, this is the co-nundrum. Thoughts can get stuck in our head forever. So much so that we can become paralyzed against doing anything at all. But one thing is for sure: we must take A.C.T.I.O.N. to move on to that road to recovery.

Alcoholics Anonymous uses this great acronym: Any Change Toward Improving One’s Nature.

Take A.C.T.I.O.N. on that new road of no excuses. Of acceptance of who we are, what we have gone through, and the future we want to carve out. No one will make that future for you. You are the instru-ment of change, if you try nothing new, you will only remain at the fork in the road.

Or, maybe you look back, and return down the old road of what you knew in the past.

Don’t let the “Why me?” syndrome win. Remember that it is a crucial part of your recovery process. Just as you have made it through whatever obstacles recov-ery has sent thus far, you will get through the “Why me?”. Not only will you get through it, but you will use it to deepen your relationship with yourself and those around you.

Freedom: A Passover Theme That Resonates for All of UsPassover is a holiday

that celebrates both physi-cal freedom and spiritual freedom.

As a pastoral coun-selor at Westchester Jew-ish Community Services, I meet occasionally with people who, like the slave in Exodus 21, choose not to go free even when the oppor-tunity is presented to them. I’m not merely referring to the obvious “bondages” of unhealthy relationships or addictions. I’m refer-ring to the more subtle at-tachments we might carry such as: (1) an inability to free ourselves or our loved ones of certain distortions

of reality (“I’m not smart/good enough,” “She’s never responsible/will never do it right,” or “He’s the brains in the family.”); (2) other seem-ingly intransigent mindsets, such as “the cup is half emp-ty” or “life is only about pain and then we die;” or (3) the perpetuation and entrench-ment of resentments and hurts that might have been unburdened long ago but have remained intractable.

Spiritual freedom is about taking an honest look at our fall-back, mind-less routines and choosing mindful, life-affirming hab-its. As Rabbi Michael Stras-sfeld discusses in A Book

of Life: Embracing Judaism as a Spiritual Practice, our most basic routine of eat-ing bread, something we take for granted for most of the year, is, in fact, a kind of enslavement. Not eating bread on Pesach is the first step of our liberation in that it shakes up our routine, liberating us from auto-pilot. Everything is worthy of examination, since our enslavements occur in the most mundane of ways.

What other habits, so engrained that we never question them, should we be examining and perhaps changing?

According to Howard

Polsky, author of Everyday Miracles: The Healing Wis-dom of Hasidic Stories, “The distinctive mark of libera-tion is the freeing of your imagination to host new possibilities in coping with your situation. Liberation begets new choices; it frees you from compulsively act-ing the way you always have and thereby deepening your misery.”

Who wouldn’t want to act thoughtfully rather than compulsively? Yet we often willingly choose familiar suffering (a.k.a. mindless habit) even when another path is available. The so-lution is to give yourself spiritual exercises to free yourself from the tried-and-

not-so-true voices of habit, despair, or pettiness. Next time you catch yourself in a distortion of reality or a mindset that is ripe for a makeover, try to change the pattern. Most essential is to discern if you are truly ready to be freed of the burden of that particular enslavement.

The Jewish mystics understood Egypt to be not only a geographical place but also a symbol of constricted consciousness. In fact, the Hebrew word for Egypt, Mitzrayim, means narrow-ness and constriction. Let us not limit ourselves and our options by constricting and narrowing our vision and perspective, our actions and behaviors. Let us not be like

the slave who refuses to go free when given the oppor-tunity. G-d gave us freedom to choose our every act, our every word. Let us choose wisely, in great freedom.
