Kol Ari El newsletter from Adat Ari El, July 2000

Kol Ari El The Lion's Voice The Monthly Chronicle of Ada: Ari El A Reform Congregation Embracing Traditional Judaism July 2000 28 Sivan - 28 Tammuz Vol. IX ? Issue No. 7 Kol Harav...The Rabbi's Voice Inside this issue: Calling All Teachers and Singers I will be interviewing candidates for teaching in our Religious School for the school year of 2000-2001. Interested teachers may set up appointments to see me. We pride ourselves in having quality teachers at Adat Ari El. With the influx of so many Jewish people coming to town, it is impossible to know all of the talent available for teaching in our school. Please call our office as soon as possible for appointments. We are seeking new members to sing in our AAE Choir for the High Holidays. Due to the availability of our accompanist, we are changing our first rehearsal for the Holidays to Thursday, August 3, 2000. We have a sophisticated and state of the art tutorial program for those learning the music for the first time. I am looking for singers who sing in tune and have a willingness to leam the music and enhance our Holiday services. Rehearsals will be on Thursday evenings, unless otherwise scheduled for special reasons, from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM in our sanctuary. One does not need to be a member of our congregation for the first year to sing in our choir. Anyone interested in joining the choir, please call our office.

Each month we will offer a recap of what has occurred at the previous month's board meeting. We hope you will find this of interest and use it to keep abreast of what is happening at our Temple. As we look to our future, we encourage you to let us know your opinions. If you have any questions or comments, e mail us at famofsteel@prodiQy.net or call the Temple office at 221-1230. At our board meeting of June 13th, we discussed many issues. One area we spent a lot of time on concerned a topic that came up at our General Meeting in May. This was regarding our new building fund assessment. While we knew this would be a difficult thing to discuss at the meeting, we were taken aback when the discussion quickly turned into the perceived inequities between singles and family Rabbi Gary M. Golbart Board of Directors President Dr. Lori Snipper 1st Vice-President Dr. Phil Devore 2nd Vice-President Bob Steelman Recording Secretary Jeanne Schomaker Corresponding Secretary....Scott Schreiber Treasurer Michelle Blank Immediate Past.President.Steven Janovitch Bruce Feldman Ron Israel Mel Kochan Dr. Mark Ohriner Corinne Fields Michel Kingery Jennifer Ohriner Mark Solomon (C ontinuea on page I) Kol Ari El The Lion's Voice Page 2 Board Briefs (Continued from page 1) memberships. This was the first time that we as a board were aware of feelings any of our congregants had about this subject. We had based the building fund assessment on the same levels as the dues structure. At the time, we had no idea that there were ill feelings about the difference between family and single dues. Some congregants at the meeting expressed their feelings about this topic. At our June meeting we addressed this issue and decided to readjust the amount assessed to singles. Look for revised billing in your statements. We plan on looking at the dues structure in the future. Another hot topic was our application to the Union of American Hebrew Congregations. This is the Reform Movement's governing body. We sent an application in last spring and received a reply from the organization about their requirements. We will keep you posted about the progress of our application. The Board is responsible for planning the High Holy Days. We have planned an organizational meeting for July. Anyone wishing to help with the planning of this, please contact the Temple Office. Look on the back page for dates and times. The Board is also planning a retreat for later this month. The purpose is to plan our activities for the next twelve months. Anyone who has ideas for things we should discuss can e-mail us at the e-mail address or call the Temple office. We encourage all members to attend our next big fundraiser. Our "I D o tf sdo" will be held at the Monte Carlo Hotel and be conducted by our own "Flying Rabbi." Dinner, dancing and plenty of surprises will make for a memorable evening. Look in this newsletter for more details. A lot of progress is being made in our search for investors for the eventual purchase of land for our permanent home. We will let you know as things develop, as well as let you know the date of another General Meeting when we get to the point of bidding on a site. The board is always on the lookout for people to help with Temple activities. If you have a skill or some time to give to our congregation, please call the Temple office. Thanks for reading this article and keeping informed of Temple business. See you next month. r o c t i a n B a r H i t z v a h t P onathan Kochan, son of Phyllis Walker and Men's Club President Mel Kochan will lead services and become a Bar Mitzvah on July 21 & 22, 2000.

Dr. Steven Newman recently completed his studies at the Rabbinical Seminary International in New York City and was ordained as a rabbi on June 27, 2000. Rabbi Newman had attended the rabbinical program of Hebrew Union College for two years prior to changing his educational direction and receiving his Ph.D. in psychology. He has been working as a psychotherapist for some twenty years. Dr. Newman wanted to redirect his life back to focusing on Jewish life and community. According to Rabbi Newman, his ordination is his dream come true. Rabbi Newman has been an active member of Adat Ari El over two years and we look forward to his contributions and his success in the coming years. I would like to offer Rabbi Newman a Mazel Tov on behalf of our entire congregation. Mazel Tov goes to my secretary Helen Groner and her husband Sam on becoming grandparents for the second time with the birth of Brady Samuel in Reston, Virginia.

Due to illness in my family, I had no time this past month for any kind of extracurricular writing. Knowing, however, that my many loyal fans (okay, two fans - my son and my mother) would be heartbroken if I did not contribute some material, I offer the following. I'm sure you have heard/seen at least some of these Jewish celebrity quotes - but most are so amusing and/or interesting that they bear repeating. "God will pardon me. It's His business." Heinrich Heine "Don't be so humble; you are not that great." Golda Meir "My father never lived to see his dream come true of an all Yiddish speaking Canada." David Steinberg "I once wanted to become an atheist but I gave up...they have no holidays." Henny Youngman "I don't want any yes-men around me. I want everybody to tell me the truth even if it costs them their jobs." Sam Goldwyn "You make the beds, you do the dishes and six months later you have to start all over again." Joan Rivers "Somewhere on this globe, every ten seconds, there is a woman giving birth to a child. She must be found and stopped." Sam Levenson "I've been on so many blind dates, I should get a free dog." Wendy Liebman "Always tell the truth - ifs the easiest thing to remember." David Mamet "I base most of my fashion taste on what doesn't itch." Gilda Radner "My idea of an agreeable person is a person who agrees with me." Benjamin Disraeli "Even if you are Catholic, if you live in New York you're Jewish. If you live in Butte, Montana, you are going to be goyish even if you're Jewish." Lenny Bruce "The time is at hand when the wearing of a prayer shawl and skullcap will not bar a man from the White House, unless, of course, the man is Jewish." Jules Farber "Look at Jewish history. Unrelieved lamenting would be intolerable. So, for every ten Jews beating their breasts, God designated one to be crazy and amuse the breast beaters. By the time I was five I knew I was that one." Mel Brooks "I don't want to achieve immortality through my work. I want to achieve immortality through not dying." Woody Allen "Whoever called it necking was a poor judge of anatomy." Groucho Marx (Continued on page 5) Back to School R , registration this year will be done by mail. Registration forms were sent out last month and one is also provided in this Kol Ari El for your convenience.

Kol Ari El The Lion's Voice Page 5 Table Talk ou're invited to TABLE TALK?WHAT WE LEARN AT OUR KITCHEN TABLES?TILE DECORATING WORKSHOP, which will be held at our Synagogue on Tuesday, July 25 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. The workshop is being conducted by the Lied Discovery Children's Museum and is a project which is part of the Artists & Communities: America Creates for the Millennium, a nationwide project of the Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation, with funding from the National endowments for the Arts. Shasha Bergmann Lichtenstein, a collaborative artist from Connecticut, was chosen as the artist to coordinate and create this community network. Table Talk aims to engage families from throughout the community to share and explore the many different kinds of exchanges that occur at their kitchen tables. We all share and prepare meals at our kitchen tables, but we also make decisions, celebrate, philosophize, remember, grieve, debate, teach and leam there. You are invited to participate in helping to create the three functional sculptural tables that will be on permanent exhibit in the Museum's enclosed courtyard. Each functional table will be decorated with tiles that encapsulate personal experiences and will be available for Museum visitors to use while learning about the family stories and memories that are designed into the tables. If you are planning to participate in the Workshop you need to bring: ? A written recipe of a dish that you have eaten when your family gathers together. ? A memory of something you learned or appreciated while you were together and eating this food. (This is part of what you will add to your tile.) The recipes and stories may also be included in a cookbook made in conjunction with this project. Please R.S.V.P. to the Synagogue office at 221-1230 by Friday, July 21st. Home Away From Home Program riends from Adat Ari El needed to befriend out-of- town and International UNLV students. The Heme Away From Home Program, affiliated with the UNLV Division of Student Services, needs families and friends to befriend out-of-town and international college students for the fall semester. Participants see their students a few hours every month and answer questions students might have about Las Vegas or our American culture. There is no financial obligation. If you would like to participate in this special friendship program please call program coordinator, Sharlene Flushman, at 794-2888 f r o m Bonnie. (Continued from page 4) "I used to read interviews with people who have made a lot of money, but they were so riddled with lies that I gave it up. They always said that the way to make a lot of money is not to think about money. Just do something you love. Clearly, what they love is making money. If what they said were true, then the richest people in the world would be good schoolteachers and bad poets." Fran Lebowitz "When I bore people at a party, they think it is their fault." Henry Kissinger "A politician is a man who will double cross that bridge when he comes to it." Oscar Levant "The remarkable thing about my mother is that for thirty years she served us nothing but leftovers. The original meal has never been found." Calvin Trillin "God, I know we are your chosen people, but couldn't you choose somebody else for a change?" Sholom Aleichem If you share these quotes with all your friends and relatives, they will think you are especially witty and knowledgeable. I promise not to tell them that you heard the quotes from me...
