Your 2018 Guide in Partnership With YOUR 2018 GUIDE IN PARTNERSHIP WITH: IN ASSOCIATION WITH: WITH GRATEFUL THANKS TO: video productions Message from the organisers You asked for more, and so the second Jewish Literary Festival (JLF) is here, with a programme that’s been deemed ‘quite remarkable’. We are proud and grateful to be a beneficiary this year of the United Communal Fund of the United Jewish Campaign (UJC), as this puts us firmly on the Jewish communal calendar in Cape Town. Private donors have again rallied to support us, and while they prefer to be anonymous, we offer our heartfelt thanks to them for giving so generously. The organisations which comprise the Gardens Community Centre not only provide the venue platform for the JLF but are valuable partners. Thanks to campus manager Joanne Benjamin for her vision in ensuring that the JLF goes from strength to strength. The Jacob Gitlin Library, our anchor, partnered with us once more, and we profess deep admiration for their ongoing commitment to the world of Jewish literature. Lester Hoffman and Lindy Diamond of the Cape Jewish Chronicle provided invaluable media support in the run-up to the festival as well as on the day, and we greatly value the collaboration. Darryl Cotton put up with website revisions and updates, while Lorraine de Villiers and Kyle Richards of Opechee Design Studio deserve a medal for their patience and creativity while handling our marketing material. Thanks to the ‘power’ women at C-below the Line and Sistas Act for pulling the event together, and to our volunteers-on-the-day who enable the smooth running of sessions. Until you have organised a literary festival, it is almost impossible to understand how much work goes into it. This work is primarily done by volunteers and it’s almost impossible to adequately thank them. The JLF would simply not exist without our core team, all of them professionals in their own right who give hours of dedicated effort to the JLF dream. PR genius Beryl Eichenberger again went above and beyond, managing marketing and publicity, assisting with programming and even handling some manufacturing! The JLF programming committee not only arranged the incredible line-up of speakers, but juggled that with other essential roles: Caryn Gootkin for social media management, Vanessa Valkin for fundraising and Melissa Fagan for managing our database and editing our brochure. Miriam Schiff stepped up to direct and manage the wonderful Children’s Programme – no mean feat! To these, our incomparable committee members, no amount of thanks is enough. All that’s left is to invite you, our valued festivalgoers, to join us in celebrating the creative power of words in the tradition of Jewish life.

    PROFESSOR TIM NOAKES ON CHARACTER, SELF-BELIEF, AND THE SEARCH FOR PERFECTION Transcribed from Prof. Noakes’ presentation in Madison, Wisconsin, on Aug. 1, 2017: I have an admission to make: I've been a runner for 48 years, and today I became a CrossFitter for the first time. So, you know, if I can't lift my arms up you’ll understand. So, it was — it was really interesting to see the culture of your community, and it was quite — really exciting to see it, and I compliment you on what you're doing and what Greg has done for the world in the last few — last 10 or 15 years. It's a movement that has such potential that I hope that we will be able to grow it and extend it. And — and my wish would also be that some of the science would be able to come from you. That your own experiences could be in some way measured and interpreted as real evidence for the benefits of what Greg said: that we want physical activity and the right nutrition. And I just hope that we can do that. So, I'm going to talk today — a talk which I've evolved over the years, and it's about my own experiences and — and what you'll find, that I'm taking cause to Newcastle because a lot of the examples I use are of brilliant American athletic performances. And — and you may not know it because you live in America, but those of us who don't live in America, we see you as a nation of believers.
