Enlightening Adventure in Israel Led by Rabbi Shira Joseph February/March 2022 with Optional Petra and Negev Extension (As of 7/19/21)
Congregation Sha’aray Shalom Enlightening Adventure in Israel Led by Rabbi Shira Joseph February/March 2022 with optional Petra and Negev Extension (as of 7/19/21) Israel is a land of connections and reconnections. It is a place that both holds nostalgia and awaits rediscovery. Over the decades, so much in Israel has changed dramatically, yet the essence that draws us remains the same. Traveling together as a community on Rabbi Joseph’s farewell tour, we will bond through our shared experiences and enhance our understanding of culture and archaeology, religion and politics, the ancient and the modern, as we delve in-depth into Israel’s millennia-old legacy as heart of the Jewish People. Day 1: Monday, February 21, 2022: DEPARTURE • We depart the United States on our overnight flight to Israel. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 2: Tuesday, February 22, 2022: WELCOME TO ISRAEL! • Shalom and Bruchim Habaim—welcome to Israel! Upon arrival, we are met by an Ayelet Tours representative and begin our adventure. • Ascend into the Judean Mountains and stop at Natan Rapoport’s Scroll of Fire sculpture in the Forest of the Martyrs. This dramatic sculpture commemorates Jewish history from the Holocaust through the founding of Israel through dramatic scenes of destruction and rebirth. • Upon entering Jerusalem, we stop at the Haas Promenade to say Shehecheyanu as we look out over the City of Gold. • We check into our hotel and join for a welcome dinner this evening. Overnight in Jerusalem ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 3: Wednesday, February 23, 2022: DIGGING INTO JERUSALEM • Breakfast at our hotel. • We visit Yad L’Kashish, the Lifeline for the Aged, an inspiring artisan workshop which empowers and supports hundreds of elderly and disabled Jerusalem residents. -

The Scale Insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) of Oak Trees (Fagaceae: Quercus Spp.) in Israel
ISRAEL JOURNAL OF ENTOMOLOGY, Vol. 43, 2013, pp. 95-124 The scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) of oak trees (Fagaceae: Quercus spp.) in Israel MALKIE SPODEK1,2, YAIR BEN-DOV1 AND ZVI MENDEL1 1Department of Entomology, Volcani Center, Agricultural Research Organization, POB 6, Bet Dagan 50250, Israel 2Department of Entomology, Robert H. Smith Faculty of Agriculture, Food and Environment, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, POB 12, Rehovot 76100, Israel Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) of four species of oaks (Fagaceae: Quercus) in Israel namely, Q. boissieri, Q. calliprinos, Q. ithaburensis, and Q. look were collected and identified from natural forest stands during the period 2010-2013. A total of twenty-seven species were determined from nine scale insect families: Asterolecaniidae (3 species), Coccidae (3), Di- aspididae (7), Eriococcidae (3), Kermesidae (6), Kuwaniidae (1), Mono- phlebidae (1), Pseudococcidae (2), and Putoidae (1). Six of these species represent new records for Israel and five are identified to the genus level. Kuwaniidae is a new family record for Israel. Species that were previously collected or recorded on oaks in Israel are listed and discussed. Information is given about host trees and global distribution. The majority of the spe- cies reported here are monophagous or stenophagous and they appear to be non-pestiferous to the oak trees in Israel. General traits that describe each scale insect family in the field are provided, together with an identification key to aid in the determination of slide-mounted specimens into families represented in this study. KEY WORDS: Scale insect, Coccoidea, oak trees, Quercus, forest, survey, monophagous, univoltine, Mediterranean, Israel INTRODUCTION The genus Quercus (Fagaceae) has a rich and diverse arthropod fauna associated with it (Southwood, 1961; Southwood et al., 2005). -

By all accounts, 2019 has been our best year yet and that’s saying something for an organization with a 118-year history. We have, and continue, to make a difference in the Jewish world and we are uniquely situated to realize our strategic vision of building and connecting young and old alike to our ancestral soil. Your investment as a partner with Jewish National Fund is critical to our achievement. We must inspire and engage the next generation to continue the legacy of our people; we connect thousands of our young people from the United States to the land and people of Israel better than anyone through our platform, “from birth to the boardroom.” When I meet our teenagers and our JNFuture members (22 to 40-year-olds), the fastest growing segment of our donor base, their enthusiasm and passion for Israel is clear. -
