The call was to Rabbi Binyamin Kamenetz- ky, then a fi rst grade rebbe in Yeshiva Toras Chaim in East New York. Marvin Bienenfeld, the father of a boy in Rabbi Kamenetzky’s class, wanted his son’s rebbe to visit the com- munity where the family lived. It was in a foreign place called ‘Long Island.’ “He tells me people are moving in, and I didn’t pay any attention,” Rabbi Kamenetzky recalled last Sunday in a lengthy telephone interview. “I have no time to visit, but I said ‘Chol Hamoed I’ll drive in.’” During his visit to the family, Rabbi Kame- netzky noticed that the only shuls, including Congregation Beth Sholom, were far away from the Beinenfeld home. “I said, ‘You have such a beautiful home, Photos courtesy of Mayer Davis it would be the nicest place to make the min- Esther and Cantor Avrum Davis were married for 64 years before her death this year. yan right after Shabbat,’” Rabbi Kamenetzky counted. “I’ll say a dvar torah.” Rabbi Kamenetzky brought unused sid- durim from his father-in-law’s shul in the Bronx.

  • Pesach Status of Enriched White Rice Ask Ou
    ww ww VOL. y h / NO. 7 IYAR 5771 / MAY 2011 s xc THEDaf a K ashrus a monthlyH newsletter for th e o U r a bb inic field representative DAF NOTES On Sunday, March 27, for the first time, the Harry H. Beren ASK OU OUTREACH Kashrut Shiurim were presented to the Sephardic community at Bnei Shaare Zion in Brooklyn, NY. The OU Poskim, Rav Hershel Schachter and Rav Yisroel Belsky, both discussed the current Pesach status of enriched white rice for those who are permitted to eat Kitniyot on Pesach. These discussions sparked much interest in the Sephardic community. Although by now, Pesach is behind us, the Daf feels it important to share with its readers the research Rabbi Gavriel Price has made on this subject in the article below, as well as the accompanying Teshuva written by Rav Schachter Shlita. Rav Schachter writes in his Teshuva that the potential Chametz in rice that is produced by several major US manufacturers would be Botul before Pesach. How- ever, it is proper for Sephardim to wash the rice to remove the possible Chametz in the added vitamins. It is preferable for Sephardim to use any unprocessed brown rice or white rice with an acceptable Kosher L’Pesach certification as found in Eretz Yisroel, for those permitted to eat Kitniyot. Please refer to the Teshuva for the reasons Rav Schachter gives for these Psokim. Parboiled, pre-cooked, boil-in-a-bag, and converted rice are either pesach statUs naturally enriched or use a special method of enrichment that will of enriched white rice not be discussed here.

  • Jewish Subcultures Online: Outreach, Dating, and Marginalized Communities ______
    JEWISH SUBCULTURES ONLINE: OUTREACH, DATING, AND MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES ____________________________________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Fullerton ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in American Studies ____________________________________ By Rachel Sara Schiff Thesis Committee Approval: Professor Leila Zenderland, Chair Professor Terri Snyder, Department of American Studies Professor Carrie Lane, Department of American Studies Spring, 2016 ABSTRACT This thesis explores how Jewish individuals use and create communities online to enrich their Jewish identity. The Internet provides Jews who do not fit within their brick and mortar communities an outlet that gives them voice, power, and sometimes anonymity. They use these websites to balance their Jewish identities and other personal identities that may or may not fit within their local Jewish community. This research was conducted through analyzing a broad range of websites. The first chapter, the introduction, describes the Jewish American population as a whole as well as the history of the Internet. The second chapter, entitled “The Black Hats of the Internet,” discusses how the Orthodox community has used the Internet to create a modern approach to outreach. It focuses in particular on the extensive web materials created by Chabad and Aish Hatorah, which offer surprisingly modern twists on traditional texts. The third chapter is about Jewish online dating. It uses JDate and other secular websites to analyze how Jewish singles are using the Internet. This chapter also suggests that the use of the Internet may have an impact on reducing interfaith marriage. The fourth chapter examines marginalized communities, focusing on the following: Jewrotica; the Jewish LGBT community including those who are “OLGBT” (Orthodox LGBT); Punk Jews; and feminist Jews.

Page 4 YOSS MEMORABLE MOMENTS Sharing the excitement .......................... Page 10 PAGE 2 MESSAGE FROM THE ROSH YESHIVA Sefer Shemos is the story of the emergence of Klal Yisrael from a small tribe of the progeny of Yaakov, to a thriving nation with millions of descendants, who accepted upon themselves the yoke of Torah. It is the story of a nation that went out to a desert and sowed the seeds of the future – a future that thrives to this very day. More than sixty years ago, my grandfather Rav Yaakov Kamenetzky, zt”l, charged my father and mother with the formidable task, “Go to the desert and plant the seeds of Torah.” What started as a fledgling school with six or seven boys, flourished more than a hundred fold. With institutions of tefilah, and higher Torah learning, all the outgrowth of that initial foray into the desert, my father’s impact is not only eternal but ever-expanding. This year’s dinner will mark both the commemoration of those accomplishments and a commitment to the renewal, refurbishment and expansion of the Torah facility he built brick by brick in 1964. Whether you are a student, an alumnus, a parent or community member, my father’s vision touched your life, and I hope that you will join us in honoring his.
