Comedy For Koby.com

Posted by on Oct 27, 2009 in Comedy |

As many of you know, Avi Liberman has lead a group of comedians to Israel the past 8 years, with all proceeds going to Tzedakah. The last two tours have benefited the Koby Mandell Foundation, an organization that has a summer camp for children who have lost relatives to terrorism, councils parents who have lost children, has a grieving mothers group, and is an organization near and dear to our hearts here at YICC.

The last tour raised over $30,000 while making thousands of people happy, and creating new positive shlichim for Israel all at once, as many of the comedians Avi brings are not Jewish. This was all possible because of many generous donors.

The upcoming tour in December however has a problem in that the usual donation of miles covering the tickets for travel will not be available.
Avi has gone back to doing what he used to, fundraising for this important endeavor.
We at YICC are looking to help Avi raise approximately $3500.
To help please make checks out to YICC Gmach noted “Koby Mandell.

For any questions please contact Avi at 310 785-9242 or aviliberman@ppeline.com
website: www.comedyforkoby.com

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The website for the upcoming tour is www.comedyforkoby.com
All the info is up there, and ticket purchasing can be done directly from the site.

A message from Avi:
If you are not going to be in Israel at the show but would like to make a donation to the charity anyway, just click on “order tickets” and when it asks for “which show”, the pull-down menu has a “donate” option.

If I don’t see you there, feel free to spread the word.

My Own Real Estate Disaster

Posted by on Oct 26, 2009 in Personal |

I’m like Chairman Mao. I win hearts and minds and I live off the land in my little hovel. I devote myself to providing good blog posts for the community so they can have something to share with each over the dinner table.

I had about $2,000 in savings and I invested them with a friend who was making a killing in real estate. Then Paul Volker started raising interest rates and the real estate game crashed. Oy vey!

I learned about things the hard way. More particularly, my parents bore the brunt and I learned from their suffering.

In the summer of 1980, my father lost his employment with the Seventh-Day Adventist church. My family moved from Pacific Union College in the Napa Valley, where we were renting, to the Auburn area, in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountain range 45 minutes drive north of Sacramento.

My father set up his own non-denominational evangelical Christian foundation Good News Unlimited.

I’m reading this new book by economist Thomas Sowell — The Housing Boom and Bust.

From 2000 to 2005, the average home price in the United States increased by one-third. Millions of Americans began using their homes as ATMs, getting credit lines from numerous banks to pay off their other debts (whose interest was not tax deductible, only mortgage interest payments are deductible). Then in 2007, it all crashed.

Read On

For more than a decade, US newspapers have editorialized that banks are more conservative than they should be about lending money to blacks. The current foreclosure debacle suggests otherwise.

A 1991 Federal Reserve study found that blacks and whites with the same income had different mortgage loan acceptance rates. Is this racism? It’s not clear. Income is only one factor in determining whether someone is a good bet to repay a mortgage loan. Blacks and whites with the same income tend to have very different levels of wealth.

Beth Jacob’s Rabbi Kalman Topp Visits Israel

Posted by on Oct 26, 2009 in beth jacob, Israel, R. Kalman Topp |

He writes: Dear Friend,

I’m writing this email to let you know that I just arrived in Israel for a unique and exciting trip.

Under the leadership of the Israeli Consulate of Los Angeles, twenty Rabbis from the area from all denominations are travelling together on a brief whirlwind tour of Israel. Over the course of the two and a half days, we are going from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem to the Negev and back.

We just began our packed itinerary which will include a visit to the Rogozin High School (a school in Tel Aviv supported by the Jewish Federation of Greater L.A.), a meeting with President Shimon Peres, an intelligence briefing with Major General Amos Yedlin, a visit to Yad Vashem, a visit and some volunteering at the Hazon Yeshaya soup kitchen in Jerusalem, a visit to the Ben Gurion University and Project Ayalim in the Negev and much more.

The purpose of the trip is for us to be educated and inspired and in time to give that over to our congregations. Moreover, the fact that Rabbis, representing congregations from all denominations, are in Israel together is not only a strong display of solidarity with Israel but also an impressive declaration of Jewish unity. Being that I’m representing our Beth Jacob congregation, all of you can be proud to be involved in this show of solidarity and unity.

I am returning, please G-d, Thursday morning, and this Shabbat I hope to share with you more about the trip.

With best regards from Israel and wishes of peace and strength for Am Yisrael,

Dr. Wafa Sultan Speaks Oct. 29

Posted by on Oct 20, 2009 in anti semitism |

The David Horowitz Freedom Center Invites You To A
Wednesday Morning Club
luncheon with

Dr. Wafa Sultan

Thursday, October 29, 2009

Location:
Four Seasons
300 S. Doheny Dr.
Los Angeles, CA  90048


11:30 a.m. – Reception
12:00 p.m. – Lunch and program

1:30 p.m. – Book Signing

A God Who Hates: The Courageous Woman Who Inflamed the Muslim World Speaks Out Against the Evils of Islam: A God Who Hates

From the front page of The New York Times to YouTube, Dr. Wafa Sultan has become a force radical Islam has to reckon with. For the first time, she tells her story and what she learned, first-hand, about radical Islam in A God Who Hates, a passionate memoir by an outspoken Arabic woman that is also a cautionary tale for the West. She grew up in Syria in a culture ruled by a god who hates women. “How can such a culture be anything but barbarous?”, Sultan asks. “It can’t”, she concludes “because any culture that hates its women can’t love anything else.” She believes that the god who hates is waging a battle between modernity and barbarism, not a battle between religions. She also knows that it’s a battle radical Islam will lose. Condemned by some and praised by others for speaking out, Sultan wants everyone to understand the danger posed by A God Who Hates.

Wafa Sultan is a Syrian-born American psychiatrist included on Time Magazine’s list of the 100 Most Influential People in the World in 2006. She created a firestorm on Al-Jazeera as the first Arab Muslim woman on that network who demanded to be heard.

Open Your Heart To Happiness

Posted by on Oct 15, 2009 in Helkeinu |

Events@helkeinu.com emails:

Helkeinu presents an interactive workshop with professional and relationship coach:

Sheryl Giffis
 

Open Your Heart To Happiness

To open the heart is the finest art – The Art of Dreaming

We are bombarded by 60,000 thoughts a day.

But it is not our thoughts that are the problem; it is our reaction to them.

And our reactions, our thoughts about our thoughts, over time, contribute to stress, worry and feelings of being stuck.

Have you ever wanted to unplug from these thoughts and just get out of your head?

To stop worrying, stressing, thinking, analyzing, freaking out?

The only way out of our heads is through our hearts. The heart is the strongest organ in the body and one of the most underused.

In this workshop, you’ll learn tools to:

• Experience yourself outside of thinking

• Release anxiety and cultivate a sense of calm

• Discover untapped compassion and deeper connection to others

• Live from a knowing feeling state rather than a thinking mental state

• Distinguish between being and doing
• Open your heart to meeting someone to experience a loving relationship

Sheryl is a professional spiritual and relationship coach whose passion is giving people access to their deepest creativity, joy and purpose in life. She is the dating coach for www.jsinglescruise.com, an honors grad of UC Berkeley, and she spent a year in Jerusalem learning Torah on her path to becoming a ba’al tshuva. She loves learning about the inner dimensions of life through authentic kaballah, mindfulness, bodywork and energy medicine and making it practical and relevant for everyday use.
