MIKVEH ISRAEL RECORD 14 Tammuz 5774 Shabbat Pinhas July 11-12, 2014
MIKVEH ISRAEL RECORD 14 Tammuz 5774 Shabbat Pinhas July 11-12, 2014 SHABBAT SERVICES PARASHAH In this week's parashah, after the sin of Baal-Peor, G-d announced that because Pinhas had displayed his passion for G-d, G-d granted Pinhas G-d's covenant of peace and priesthood for all time. G-d then told Moses to attack the Midianites to repay them for their trickery luring Israelite men to worship Baal-Peor. Candle Lighting Friday Night 8:13 PM G-d instructed Moses and Eleazar to take a census of Israelite men 20 years old and up, and Friday Evening Services 7:15 PM Moses and Eleazar ordered it done. The census finds 601,730 men between the ages of 20 Shabbat Morning Service 9:00 A.M and 60. G-d instructed Moses on how the Land is to be divided by lottery among the tribes Torah Class 6:45 P.M. and families of Israel. The Levi'im men aged a month old and up amounted to 23,000, and Shabbat Afternoon Service 7:30 P.M. they were not included in the regular enrollment of Israelites, as they were not to have land Shabbat Ends: 9:13 P.M. assigned to them. The only persons whom Moses and Eleazar counted that were counted in the first census at the wilderness of Sinai, were Caleb and Joshua. BIRTHDAY WISHES: The daughters of Zelophehad approached Moses, Eleazar, the chieftains, and the assembly at the entrance of the Tabernacle, saying that their father left no sons, and asking that they be given a land holding. -
Leviathan Jewish Journal Is an Open Medium Through Which Jewish Students and Their Allies May Freely Express Their Opinions
Spring 2012 Vol. 39-3 LeviathanJewish Journal Jewish Journal Statement of Intent Leviathan Jewish Journal is an open medium through which Jewish students and their allies may freely express their opinions. We are commited to responsibly representing the views of each individual author. Every quarter we aim to publish a full and balanced spectrum of media exploring Jewish identity and social issues. The opinions presented in this journal do not always represent the collective opinion of Leviathan’s staff, the organized Jewish community, or the University of California. Editor-in-Chief Art Director Aaron Giannini Karin Gold Production Manager Publisher Karin Gold Shani Chabansky Managing Editor Faculty Sponsor Savyonne Steindler Bruce Thompson Business Manager Contributors Karina Garcia Hanna Broad Shelby Backman Web Manager Sophia Smith Oren Gotesman Andrew Dunnigan Gabi Kirk Additonal Staff Members Anisha Mauze David Lee Amrit Sidhu Ephraim Margolin Allison Carlisle Jennine Grasso Matthew Davis Cover Art Karin Gold Letter From the Editor After a hectic and controversial year, the Leviathan Staff thought it would be beneficial to revisit the subject of what it means to be Jewish in today’s world. This is in no way a simple question, as the diversity of the Jewish people speaks to the fluid- ity of our identity. Are we the culmination of our history, inheriting monotheism through our holy lineage? Or are we just fingerprints, products of our ever-changing environment, blips on the cosmic stage? Are we grounded in our past, or is it our obligation to live in the present and look towards the future? We did not decide on our cover image this quarter without much deliberation. -

CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy. -

America's Russian-Speaking Jews Come of Age
Toward a Comprehensive Policy Planning for R u s s i a n - Speaking Jews in North America Project Head Jonathan D. Sarna Contributors Dov Maimon, Shmuel Rosner In dealing with Russian-speaking Jews in North America, we face two main challenges and three possible outcomes. CHALLENGES: 1. Consequences of disintegration of the close-knit immigrant society of newly arrived Russian-speaking Jews. 2. Utilizing the special strengths of Russian-speaking Jews for the benefit of the wider American Jewish community. POSSIBLE OUTCOMES: 1. The loss of Jewish identity and rapid assimilation. 2. An adaptation of American-Jewish identity (with the benefits and shortcomings associated with it). 3. A formation of a distinctive Russian-speaking Jewish identity strong enough to be further sustained. There is a 10 to 15-year window of opportunity for intervention with this population. There is also a need to integrate, in a comprehensive manner, organizations to positively intervene in the field. At this preliminary stage, several recommendations stand out as urgent to address this population’s needs: - An effort on a national scale to assist the communities that are home to the majority of Russian-speaking Jews. - Funding for programs that will encourage Russian-speaking Jews to move into Jewish areas. - Special programs to promote in-marriage. - Dialogue mechanisms for Russian-speaking Jews in Israel, the US, Germany, and the Former Soviet Union. - Programs building on Russian-speaking Jews’ sense of peoplehood to bolster ties among all Jews to Israel. - Possible reciprocity between Jewish education and education in science and math for Russian-speaking Jews ("Judaism for math"). -
