Call Midwife CALL THE MIDWIFE Season 2 Baby Boom From left to right: Jessica Raine, Pam Ferris, and Helen George Call the Midwife Sundays, March 31 – May 19, 8 p.m. thirteen.org/call-the-midwife When Call the Midwife premiered in England, it became the highest rated drama debut in BBC history. The critically acclaimed series became a favorite with American audiences as well when it debuted on THIRTEEN last September. Based on the bestselling memoirs by Jennifer Worth, it tells colorful stories of midwifery and families in 1950s post-war London, following new midwife Jenny Lee and the midwives and nuns at Nonnatus House as they minister to expectant mothers in the poorest area of the city. The earnest but sheltered Jenny, the eternally stern Sister Evangelina, and the fabulously glamorous Trixie Franklin are among the characters who have cap - tured viewers’ hearts in the States and abroad. Season Two begins this month, delivering more births, babies, and bicycling, plus blossoming romance from an unexpected corner. THIRTEEN spoke with Jessica Raine (Jenny), Helen George (Trixie), and Pam Ferris (Sister Evangelina) about their work on the series. thirteen.org 1 Why do you think Call the Midwife is so What insights have you gained about life in popular with contemporary audiences? post-war London – especially women’s lives during that era – from working on the series?

Jerusalem has captured the imagination of Jews for centuries. It's the direction to which we pray, it's the aspiration of centuries of dreamers, it holds hope and promise for many. In honor of the 50th anniversary of the Six Day War, Har Zion will engage our kehillah in a celebration of the city of our eternal city of hope. Over the next eight months, we will explore the diverse role Jerusalem has played for us as a people, from biblical times to present day. Each month has been assigned a verb that will guide our exploration. We’ve dedicated February to Singing Jerusalem. The number of songs about Jerusalem is nearly endless since the themes of the holiness and centrality of Jerusalem, returning to Zion and longing for Jerusalem have been a part of Jewish literature since Biblical times. Each week we will feature one or two selections from the endless well of “Songs about Jerusalem.” Two offerings this week – The first, “Jerusalem is Mine,” is by Kenny Karen, a singer/songwriter and son of a prominent rabbi from Montreal.

  • Pioneering a Cure
    Pioneering a cure Jun. 15, 2009 MEL BEZALEL , THE JERUSALEM POST When the first pioneers arrived on these shores almost 100 years ago, they carried with them numerous and varied cultural identities, a reminder of their home communities that, in many cases, had evolved over many generations. Music was a significant facet of this, says the New York-based Rabbi Greg Wall, producer of Pioneers for a Cure (PfaC), a charity project officially launched on Yom Ha'atzmaut this year to raise funds for cancer research through re-recording and distributing pioneer songs. Thirty tracks were recorded over the past two years in a New York studio, and are now available to download. Wall admits he knew very little about pioneer music before undertaking the mammoth task of coordinating the new recordings, by well-known modern artists such as Neshama Carlebach, David Broza, Pharoah's Daughter and Tovah Feldshuh. In fact, the idea was not his own. Wall's friend of 10 years, who is being identified only as "the anonymous benefactor" (he financially supports the entire project), proposed the fundraising scheme to Wall two years ago, along with fellow American PfaC teammates Beth Ravin, a music industry mogul who sits on the Grammy committee, and Ricky Orbach, founder and head of nonprofit record label Joodayoh. The benefactor's aim is to raise $100,000 for cancer research by the end of 2009 through downloads of the tracks, which can be purchased separately on the PfaC Web site (www.pioneersforacure.org) or iTunes Web site for $1.99, $9.99 or $99.99, so each track raises money independently.
