Sponsored by the Western Jewish History Center of the Judah L. Magnes Memorial Museum, the interviews have been produced by the Regional Oral History Office of The Bancroft Library. Moses Rischin, professor of history at California State University at San Francisco, is advisor to the series, assisted by the Center s Advisory Committee, Norman Goliver, chairman, Harold M. Edelstein, Seymour Fromer, Mrs. Theodore Geballe, James M. Gerstley, Douglas Goldman, Professor James D. Hart, Louis H. Heilbron, Mrs. Leon Mandelson, Robert E. Sinton, Frank H. Sloss, Daniel Stone, and Mrs. Matt Wahrhaftig. The series was inaugurated in 1967. In the oral history process, the interviewer works closely with the memoirist in preliminary research and in setting up topics for discussion. The interviews are informal conversations which are Cape recorded, transcribed, edited by the interviewer for continuity and clarity, checked and approved by the interviewee, and then final-typed. The resulting manuscripts, indexed and bound, are deposited in the Jesse E. Colman Memorial Library of the Western Jewish History Center, The Bancroft Library, and the University Library at the University of California at Los Angeles. By special arrange ment copies may be deposited in other manuscript repositories holding relevant collections. Related information may be found in earlier interviews with Lawrence Arnstein, Amy Steinhart Braden, Adrien J. Falk, Alice Gerstle Levi- son, Jennie Matyas, Walter Clay Lowdermilk, and Mrs. Simon J. Lubin. Ua tran scribed tapes of interviews with descendants of pioneer California Jews conducted by Professor Robert E. Levinson are on deposit at The Bancroft Library and the Western Jewish History Center. The Regional Oral History Office was established to tape record autobiographical interviews with persons prominent in recent California history. The Office is under the administrative supervision of Professor James D. Hart, the director of The Bancroft Library. Willa K.

By her own assertion, Temple Emanu-EI occupies a significant place in Sylvia Stone s life. This sentiment is reciprocated in full measure by the Congregation. To every activity she contributes to this institution she brings her own inimitable elegance and charm. By all accounts and by common consent she is Temple Emanu-El s First Lady. A regular worsniper at Sabbath and Festival Services, her presence in the Sanctuary lends the occasion an especially exalted meaning. We are aware not only of her religious commitment in the pew, but of her constant endeavor to trans form the teachings of our Faith into a lifestyle wholly in harmony w i th it. At a recent 65th Reunion of her Confirmation Class, coinciding with the Confirmation of the Class of 1981 she presided as a model, not by her intent but by our perception, to the newest class. These young people will not soon forget her as the prototype of what is best in a person, whose soul and spirit are permeated by the teachings, that have been conveyed to them. Whatever they have been taught in class is clearly manifest in Sylvia Stone. and the As the rabbi of Congregation Emanu-EI , among many blessings accruing to me in this post, I consider Sylvia s friendship as one of the most precious. Our friendship reaches beyond the confines of the Temple. Her home and family reflect her transcendent nature. The beauty of her appearance is matched by the radiance of her goodness. iv There is never a cause, in which the Temple engages - or for that matter any other worthy cause - to which Sylvia does not lend her generous support. She does so shunning any kind of appreciation of them. She bears all the honors that have been showered upon her with fitting modesty. She constantly insists that she derives as much, and more, pleasure and fulfillment than she deserves. I only know of one request she has ever addressed to me, and thus to the Temple. Upon her death - and we pray that she may be spared for many more years - she wishes her funeral to take place in our Great Sanctuary.

  • Transportation Trips, Excursions, Special Journeys, Outings, Tours, and Milestones In, To, from Or Through New Jersey
    TRANSPORTATION TRIPS, EXCURSIONS, SPECIAL JOURNEYS, OUTINGS, TOURS, AND MILESTONES IN, TO, FROM OR THROUGH NEW JERSEY Bill McKelvey, Editor, Updated to Mon., Mar. 8, 2021 INTRODUCTION This is a reference work which we hope will be useful to historians and researchers. For those researchers wanting to do a deeper dive into the history of a particular event or series of events, copious resources are given for most of the fantrips, excursions, special moves, etc. in this compilation. You may find it much easier to search for the RR, event, city, etc. you are interested in than to read the entire document. We also think it will provide interesting, educational, and sometimes entertaining reading. Perhaps it will give ideas to future fantrip or excursion leaders for trips which may still be possible. In any such work like this there is always the question of what to include or exclude or where to draw the line. Our first thought was to limit this work to railfan excursions, but that soon got broadened to include rail specials for the general public and officials, special moves, trolley trips, bus outings, waterway and canal journeys, etc. The focus has been on such trips which operated within NJ; from NJ; into NJ from other states; or, passed through NJ. We have excluded regularly scheduled tourist type rides, automobile journeys, air trips, amusement park rides, etc. NOTE: Since many of the following items were taken from promotional literature we can not guarantee that each and every trip was actually operated. Early on the railways explored and promoted special journeys for the public as a way to improve their bottom line.

  • The Politics of Urban Sustainability and Environmental Justice in the Los Angeles River Watershed
    Restoring a River to Reclaim a City?: The Politics of Urban Sustainability and Environmental Justice in the Los Angeles River Watershed By Esther Grace Kim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Jeff Romm, Chair Professor Nancy Peluso Professor Richard Walker Fall 2017 Restoring a River to Reclaim a City?: The Politics of Urban Sustainability and Environmental Justice in the Los Angeles River Watershed Copyright © 2017 by Esther Grace Kim Abstract Restoring a River to Reclaim a City?: The Politics of Urban Sustainability and Environmental Justice in the Los Angeles River Watershed by Esther Grace Kim Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management University of California, Berkeley Professor Jeff Romm, Chair This dissertation examines the intersection of urban sustainability and environmental justice (EJ) in Los Angeles, California. ‘Urban sustainability’, the idea that incorporating sustainable measures into urban development plans/strategies can ameliorate ecological degradation and social inequality without compromising economic growth, has recently emerged as a powerful discourse with regards to city planning and environmental governance. In this dissertation, I critically interrogate urban sustainability’s claims, questioning how equitable socio-spatial configurations can be created through modes of urban governance, which despite its optimistic rhetoric, are still driven by the logic of capitalist economic development and overseen by the racial state. To investigate the ways in which environmental justice, then, is facilitated and/or constrained under the programmatic realization of urban sustainability, I focus on one particular sustainability project in Los Angeles—the restoration/revitalization of the Los Angeles River Watershed.

    Tikvah Talk Vol. 30 Iss. 11 Congregation B’nai Tikvah Walnut Creek, CA Summer 2011 From Where I Stand... By Rabbi Raphael Asher State of the Congregation In many ways it has been a difficult year within the congregation with some untimely deaths and health issues from “left field.” However, these challenges locally have fostered more compassion globally as we’ve been more sensi- tized to agonies in Japan, throughout the South, and to those still languishing in Haiti. Our Social Action Shabbat recently under Glenn Gould, welcomed long term member Haylene Sandler and her husband Pierre Anesoir who spoke about their medical and engineering energies in Haiti, and I hope there will be more opportunities next year to consider areas where our attention and resources can be helpful. The Jewish Year began with our local rabbis declaring this the “Year of Civil Discourse.” Noticing more vitriol and even violence within the Jewish community surrounding Israel, the economy, and local politics, we rabbis coordinated public statements about bet- ter dialogue and mutual respect. Last year’s Yontov sermons, if you recall, focused on Yiddish revival, and one of my points was that the Yiddish language was able to be both caustic, insightful, and disarming at the same time. Jewish discourse on the left, on the right, pro-Zionist, or anti-Zionist has lost a good deal of humor and insight and these need to be retrieved. With all the hopes and misgivings in the Jewish community about the “Arab Spring,’ B’nai Tikvah together with Beth Chaim, B’nai Shalom and Isaiah will be bringing a Jewish scholar on Islam and the Arab world to deliver a series of lectures at all 4 synagogues on “Understanding the Muslim Faith and Community.” When anxieties and change polarize Jewish opinion, it will be good to temper our emotions with real knowledge.
