Brina Reinstein,
JFT Campaign
Director since 1985,
Set to Retire
Special to the Review
After 22 years as Jewish Federation
of Tulsa Campaign Director, Brina
Reinstein has announced her retirement effective with the end of 2007.
Barry Abels, JFT executive director,
very reluctantly accepted Ms. Reinstein’s decision earlier this year but
asked her to continue in her position
until January 2008 in order to
organize the Tulsa Jewish United
Fund Campaign Opening Dinner on
January 12.
Ms. Reinstein’s involvement in the
Jewish world preceded her acceptance of the position of Campaign
director in 1985. Previously, she
served in many volunteer capacities
both in Tulsa and national Jewish
communities. She was a member of
both the Jewish Federation of Tulsa
Board of Directors and the Tulsa
Women’s Division Cabinet, was a
founding member of the United Jewish Appeal’s Women’s Young Leadership Cabinet, and was awarded the
National Young Leadership Award at
the 1978 General Assembly. Ms.
Reinstein was the first woman to

Tuesdays: January 8, 15, 22, 29
In the cold of winter, let’s warm ourselves by looking at the spring. Come experience the
holidays and festivals of the spring with Cantor Kari Siegel-Eglash. Together we will
conduct an in-depth exploration of the traditions, laws, and rituals surrounding these
festivals. By the end of the course, you will have gained a greater understanding of our
spring festivals and will be ready to celebrate them to the fullest.

“Forward” Arts & Leisure editor to
speak at CSJCC to Open Cultural Series
The Jewish Federation of Tulsa is
pleased to announce that the first
speaker of its 2008 cultural series
will be Alana Newhouse.
Ms. Newhouse is the author of “A
Living Lens: Photographs of Jewish
Life from the pages of The Forward.”
“A Living Lens” features classic photographs of the sort one might
already associate with the Forward:
Lower East Side pushcarts, Yiddish
theater, labor rallies, along with
gems no one would expect, such as
Harry
Truman’s
haberdashery,
Carpathian mountain musicians,
and Mussolini’s Jewish portraitist.
The book offers a survey of Jewish
life from the late 19th century
through the 21st, ranging from
far-flung Diaspora communities and
British-ruled Palestine to the Holocaust, the Soviet Jewry movement,
and the emergence of the suburban
Jewish middle class; from Fiorello La
Guardia and Fanny Brice to Barbra
Streisand, David Ben-Gurion, and
Woody Allen.
Please mark your calendars to be
at the JCC on Sunday, January 6,
at 7 p.m., for this free event.
Ms. Newhouse’s book will be available to purchase that evening.

The Community Relations Committee represents the Jewish community in all of its
relationships with the community at large. The CRC is the instrument by which Jewish
interests in public life are served. It serves as the expression of Jewish conscience on matters of communal concern, i.e., promoting the separation of church and state, combating
anti-Semitism, and promoting Jewish-Christian relations. This past year the CRC has been
engaged in helping to create business development projects in north Tulsa, conducting
active dialogue with members of the Hispanic community regarding the immigration issue,
and is convening a subcommittee that will be addressing local poverty issues.
FLO & MORRIS MIZEL JEWISH COMMUNITY DAY SCHOOL
Mizel Jewish Community Day School is Tulsa’s Jewish community day school. Mizel
provides a first-class secular education and a strong Hebrew/Judaic education. At Mizel,
children receive the best of both worlds, so they can become the best in both worlds.

Front Row for 2008
BY
CHARLES P. SHERMAN, D.D.
RABBI, TEMPLE ISRAEL
y friend Terri Hakan sent me an inspirational piece a number of
months ago which I’ve been thinking about and would like to adapt
for the beginning of the new year.
If we view life as a theater, I think we’d agree that we should invite our
audience with careful thought. Not everyone is holy enough or healthy
enough to deserve a front row seat in our life. Frankly, some people in our
life are better loved from a distance. As with so many other things in life, we
are talking about prioritizing. It is amazing what we can achieve when we let
go or at least minimize our time with draining, negative, incompatible, notgoing-anywhere relationships.
A new year has just begun. (We Jews get at least two new starts.) Let’s
observe the relationships around us – which ones lift and which ones lean,
which ones encourage and which ones discourage, which ones are on an
uphill growth path and which ones are going downhill? When we leave certain people, do we feel better or feel worse? Which ones know and appreciate us and the gifts which lie within us?
The more we seek God and the Godly, the more we look for quality, the
more we search for the honorable, the more we struggle to find growth,
peace of mind, love, and truth around us, the easier it becomes to decide
who gets to sit in the FRONT ROW and who should be moved to the balcony
or at least the mezzanine of our life.
We cannot always change the people around us, but we can change the
people we are around.
In 2008 let’s choose wisely the people who will sit in the front row of our
life.

Join us for fun, football, and snacks in the Dave & Barbara

The BCS game is Monday, January 7.
Doors open at 6:15 p.m., and the game
begins at 7 p.m. Drinks and snacks will be
provided. Any contributions to cover the cost
of refreshments will be appreciated.
The Super Bowl is Sunday,February 3.
Doors open at 4:45 p.m., and the kick off

be provided, and any contributions to cover the cost of refreshments will be appreciated.
Please RSVP so that we have enough refreshments.
Prior to the Super Bowl from 2 to 4 p.m., the CSJCC will feature a
family-friendly movie in the auditorium open to the membership. Popcorn and drinks will be provided. After the movie, the gym will be
open for the kids, with basketball and other supervised, planned
games and activities. Parents may play with the children or watch the
Super Bowl in the auditorium.
MIZEL JEWISH COMMUNITY DAY SCHOOL STUDENTS are shown above enjoying
their new playhouse donated by B'nai B’rith, Tulsa Lodge #798.
“Moms and Muffins,” a reading event
between moms and students, will be
held this month. Sharing a book between
a child and an adult has special meaning
and highlights the importance and joy
one receives from reading.
Our Reading Olympics began in
November to recognize readers with a
gold medal at a Kabbalat Shabbat service. Our students are recording the number of books they read outside of school
which will entitle them to receive a gold
medal when they reach the goal of 150
books or chapters. Reading leads to
good writing, which are both major goals
of our general studies curriculum. Three
students received gold medals at the
Chanukah Kabbalat Shabbat, while
seven students received book marks for
recording 50+ books.
Older students will tour the Tulsa World
this month to see how newspapers are
created and printed. This experience
should give students a greater appreciation of the effort it takes on a daily basis
to produce this wide network of communication. They will be made more aware
of current events and kind deeds occurring throughout the community and the
country as they discuss how useful the
newspaper is, in addition to televised
news.
Our students were thanked by the
Tulsa Community Food Bank for donating 95 pounds of food in a food drive a
few months ago. This is a good example
of instilling tikkun olam. In addition, a
fifth-grade student, Koby Abels, started a
coat drive to benefit children and adults
to coincide with Jim Giles’ Coats for Kids
program in December.
Doing mitzvahs is discussed regularly
with students, and this young man took it
to heart and acted.
A recent article in The New York Times
features the growth of independent
minyanim among young adults. This
phenomenon is taking place across the
country led by graduates of Jewish day
schools. These graduates, the vanguard
of tomorrow’s Jewish communities, are
linked to learning and positioned to grow
our institutions for the future. PEJE, Partners for Excellence in Jewish Education,
has studied the impact of Jewish Day
School with quantitative evidence that
there is an increased level of leadership
and civic engagement among day school
students.
As an update on our new Preschool
program, we cannot thank our Tulsa
B’nai B’rith Lodge enough for helping us
to purchase exceptional materials for our
new Preschool program, which began
last August. It is a joy to watch these little
ones fit puzzle pieces together, listen to
big books, play with the make-believe village, make latkes in the play kitchen, or
have fun in the new playhouse the Lodge
helped to purchase. Its financial assistance has helped us to mold a topnotch
preschool program with so many materials and equipment to foster physical,
intellectual, and spiritual growth. We are
so grateful for its gift.

An eight-alarm fire has destroyed a synagogue in Gloucester, Mass. The fire also
destroyed the 30-unit apartment building
next door, where the fire had started, and
killed one person. The cause was
unknown, according to the Boston Globe.
The newspaper was also told that
firefighters were unable to save Temple
Ahavat Achim's Torah scrolls. Ahavat
Achim has a membership of about 220
families, Rabbi Samuel Barth told the
Globe, and has been located in the Cape

Scientific American magazine has credited three Israelis with groundbreaking
research. The influential magazine, in its
listing of the year's most important scientific
discoveries, cited Professors Eshel BenJacob and Beka Solomon and Dr. Itay
Baruch, all from Tel Aviv University, as innovators in the field of “neurological insights.”
Ben-Jacob and Baruch are experts in artificial intelligence who have been seeking the
means of building a computer that can think

The president of the Islamic Society of
North America has promised to combat
Holocaust denial in the Muslim world. Dr.
Ingrid Mattson delivered her promise at the
closing plenary of the Union for Reform
Judaism biennial in San Diego last month.
Mattson compared hateful images of Muslims in the media with the dehumanization
of Jews by the nazi propaganda machine
that paved the way for the Holocaust. “This
is one of the greatest tragedies of modern
history and ISNA will witness to this truth,
anytime and to anyone in the Muslim world
who denies it,” Mattson said to a standing
ovation. Mattson said American Muslims
have much to learn from the Jewish experience, while Jews have a natural partner in

y wife, Rita, and I were honored by an invitation from
Partnership 2000 and the
Jewish community of Tulsa to participate in Engliyada this past spring.
We enjoyed the training and preparation with Vivian White and Mel
Resnick, who poured out ideas concerning how to converse in English
with people who don’t speak the language.
Rather than teaching English
grammar, which all Israelis have
studied in school, we were taught to
model the words and sentences we
wanted the students to use and then
use those words in the ensuing conversation. Rather than correcting a
mistake in the student’s grammar,
we were to compliment his or her
attempt, and then correctly repeat
the sentence he or she had said.
Thus the student was corrected in a
non-threatening way and gained
confidence in his or her ability to
speak English.
We learned that as with all Partnership 2000 programs, the emphasis of
Engliyada was on building relationships between the people of the
Sovev Kinneret Region and people
here in America.
We were invited to homes to celebrate Shabbat and Shavuot. How
warmly we were received and
treated. Eli and Aliza Cohen had us
come to their home twice and treated
us as though we were part of their
family. I told Eli that his jokes were
very funny. His response was that if I
understood Hebrew, I’d be rolling on
the floor.
They invited us to go to their dance
club. What a joy to see 250 people
whirling around a room, having such
a great time doing Jewish folk
dances. Rita loves these dances, and
we tried to enter in, but as they
called out instructions as to what
step to do in Hebrew, we were lost;
so we just sat and watched the

Engliyada Cluster Coordinator
Engliyada: “Building Relationships”
Muslims anxious to uphold religious liberty
and the separation of church and state. She
also said American Jews need to understand Muslim concern for the Palestinians
and not assume it stems from anti-Jewish
sentiment. “If religion is about anything,”
Mattson said, “it should be about the ability
to extend empathy beyond our own family
or tribe or religious community to humanity
at large.”
In a small anecdote related to the JewishMuslim relationship in the United States,
last month a Muslim helped a group of Jews
being attacked on a New York subway in an
apparent hate crime. Hassan Askari, a student at Berkeley College in Manhattan,
came to the aid of Walter Adler when he
and three friends were attacked on the Q
train running between Manhattan and
Brooklyn on the night of December 7,
according to The Associated Press. Ten
men and women, aged 19 and 20, verbally
and physically assaulted Adler and his
friends after they wished the assailants
“Happy Chanukah” in response to their
“Merry Christmas” wish. Askari, 20, tried to
fight off the attackers, which gave Adler
time to pull an emergency brake on the
Brooklyn-bound train. The assailants were
arrested at the next stop. The attack is
being investigated as a hate crime. “That a
random Muslim kid helped some Jewish
kids, that’s what’s positive about New York,”
Adler, 23, told AP. Adler suffered a broken
nose.
joyous time people were having. Here
in America, it is difficult to get
twenty women, let alone men
together to dance. There were 250
people, all couples, dancing until 2-3
a.m. Eli and Aliza go to three of these
clubs a week.
Shuky, one of Eli’s friends, asked if
we would enjoy going up to the
Golan Heights. We accepted his gracious offer. He picked us up at 10
a.m. and drove us around until
10:30 that night. We went to beautiful overlooks of the Kinneret along
the heights. For four hours we
explored the ruins of Nimrod’s
Fortress, a large fort built and used
by the Arabs, Crusaders, and Turks.
Shuky had commanded an outpost
on the Syrian border at one time and
was able to share insightful understandings about different battles
that had occurred. He took us to his
home, and we met Devora, his significant other. Throughout the day, Rita
had been asking at the concession
stands for iced coffee, an Israeli
favorite of hers. No one had it, so
Shuky called ahead to Devora and
she had iced coffee waiting for us
when we got to their home. Such was
the graciousness of all the people
with whom we got acquainted.
The last night, we visited Hava, one
of Rita’s students, for dinner. After a
delicious meal, Hava went to her
emails on her computer. I wish I
could convey the joy that exuded
from her face when she told us she
had just received a message from
“HER TEACHER!” Mark, who was
Rita’s first session co-teacher. Until
then I had not seen the result of
working with people on their English
for two, or in Rita’s case, four weeks.
KUDOS Engliyada! What a program!
As you can see, the objective of
Partnership 2000 to provide programs that build relationships
between people in Israel and America
is well accomplished through the
Engliyada program.
Thank you for allowing us to participate in this wonderful experience. Nearly 17,000 young Jewish adults from
around the world will travel to Israel for the
first time this winter as part of TaglitBirthright Israel, setting a new winter participation record. Taglit-Birthright Israel,
whose mission is to provide every young
Jewish adult with the opportunity to visit
Israel for the first time, has exploded in popularity this year, receiving the highest number of winter applicants in the program’s
seven-year history. In the years since its
launch, Taglit-Birthright Israel has established itself as the most successful international Jewish educational program of the
last generation. The program was founded
to strengthen the sense of solidarity among
world Jewry and connection with Israel, and
to strengthen participants' personal Jewish
identity and connection to the Jewish people. Taglit-Birthright Israel is a unique partnership between the government of Israel,
private philanthropists through the Birthright
Israel Foundation, and Jewish communities
around the world (via the Jewish Agency of
Israel, Keren Hayesod, and North American
Jewish federations through the UJC). Registration for summer 2008 trips will open
February 12, and more information can be
found at www.birthrightisrael.com.

B’nai Emunah to
Present Discussion
of Ice Storm
Photo Exhibit "Lens
of Remembrance:
a Holocaust Journey"
Opens at Circle Cinema
The Oklahoma ice storm of 2007
posed important questions about
emergency management, community preparedness, and the coordination of effort and resources. What
can we learn from the experience
about power outages, telephone
service, and food and shelter that
will strengthen our community?
Congregation B’nai Emunah will
host a panel discussion of these
issues on Friday evening, January
25. The conversation will be led by
Jim Lyall, associate director of the
Community Service Council of
Greater Tulsa. Mr. Lyall directs the
department of Information Services,
including Helpline 2-1-1, and he has
been a leader in social service information management in the country.
As part of a long career in public life,
he also instituted Planline and
Babyline, referral agencies for children and infant services. Mr. Lyall
was at the center of activity during
and after the storm and had a bird’s
eye view of developments. The
evening will offer an inside look at
who did what, and give participants
an opportunity to reflect on achievements, failures, and how to cope in
times of emergency.
Shabbat dinner at the Synagogue
on January 25 will begin at 6:30
p.m., with services and the panel
presentation at 7:30 p.m. No reservations are necessary for services;
those interested in dinner should
call Suzanne at 583-7121 for reservations.
The entire community is welcome
to participate. The

“Lens of Remembrance: a Holocaust
journey,” by Thomas J. Ashe,
opened in December and will continue through February 3.
The exhibit shows current day
photos of Auschwitz, Birkenau, and
other locations in Poland and was

survivors.

The head of the Hasidic Spinka sect has
been arrested in Los Angeles for tax fraud
and money laundering. Rabbi Naftali Tzvi
Weisz and his assistant Moshe Zigelman,
both of Brooklyn, were arrested on charges
that they arranged and profited from
accepting inflated charitable donations that
saved the donors millions of dollars in federal income taxes. Over the last 10 years,
$8.7 million was solicited by Zigelman, of
which the Hasidic Spinka sect kept nearly
$750,000. The rest was refunded to donors
who then claimed the bogus donations on
their income tax returns. The money was
transferred through many sources, including the Los Angeles jewelry district and
locations in Israel. Six other men were
charged in the scheme; four have been
arrested, and two others are believed to be
in Israel. Five Spinka charitable organizations, all in Brooklyn, were also named in
the case. The Spinka sect originated in
Romania and its adherents are centered in
Israel, Europe, and Brooklyn. (JTA)

unique national distinction of being designated the first “MAZON Community” in
the United States, defined as a Jewish community in which every Jewish agency

41 grants to three organizations in Oklahoma, totally $528,000.

8 TULSA JEWISH REVIEW JAN. 1, 2008
“Red Ahead for Women” Set for February 1
Special to the Review
On February 1, Tulsa will show just
how big a heart it has when it participates in “National Wear Red Day for
Women.” Wear Red Day, made possible in Tulsa by Jackie Cooper
Imports, is part of “Go Red For
Women,” the American Heart Association’s national call to increase
awareness of heart disease and
stroke and inspire women to take
charge of their own heart health. “Go
Red” encourages women of all ages to
better understand the symptoms and
warning signs and to take charge of
their cardiovascular health.
“We’d like to see the whole city ‘go
red’ on February 1,” says American
Heart Association Tulsa Go Red Director Brandy Flewellen.
Just how big a threat is cardiovascular disease to one’s mother, sister,
wife, or daughter? Though only 13
percent of women view it as a threat,
in our country it claims approximately one woman each minute. On
average, an American dies of CVD
every 35 seconds. That is why AHA is
encouraging Tulsa corporations,
businesses, hospitals, schools, local
and state legislators, members of the
media, teachers, and people from all
walks of life to wear red on February
1 to focus attention on CVD.
“Heart disease and stroke is the No.
1 killer of women in America, and 64
percent of women who died suddenly
of coronary heart disease had no previous symptoms,” says Kim Scrivner,
2008 Tulsa Go Red for Women chair.
“The good news is heart disease can
largely be prevented. The goal of Go
Red is to arm women with guidelines
to be heart smart.”
Guidelines include: seeing a doctor
regularly; knowing one’s cholesterol,
blood pressure, and blood glucose
levels; eating healthy; exercising;
maintaining a healthy weight; and
not smoking.
Join the movement to wipe out
heart disease! Women can take
the first step toward living a healthier lifestyle by visiting goredforwomen.org to join the movement and
access their own risk by taking the
GRFW Heart Check Up, supported
by Arvest Bank.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2
Perhaps it was the luck of the draw
that our Campus continued to have
power. But given that reality, having
our electricity allowed us to play a
new and important role for many. I
am very thankful to Jim Jakubovitz,
my fellow executive at the Jewish
Retirement and Health Care Center
for walking over when it all began and
asking us if we were planning on
remaining open. That simple question
got the ball rolling, and we made the
decision to stay open.
But now we must ask ourselves,
“What happens next time?” To truly
be of service, we must be better prepared. To that end we are looking into
what it will take to have the supplies
and systems in place so that we can
offer more than mats and couches
and can also have a communications
plan in place. We will keep you
posted.
As I mentioned above, as all of this
was going on, the Federation was
also still conducting business as
usual. For this time of year, it means
finishing up our 2007 Annual Campaign, as well as preparing for the
2008 Campaign Opening Dinner. As
your invitation and the article on the
front page of this month’s Review
indicates, we have invited back that
wonderful trio of young women,
“Visions,” to entertain us with their
music. I promise you a delightful
program. I am pleased and excited
that Nancy Cohen is continuing to
lead our Women’s Division and that
Leor Roubein, who along with his
wife, Hillary, chaired Super Sunday
last year, has accepted the post as
Men’s Division chair.
After much discussion, we are instituting one change in our dinner format. You will have the opportunity to
make your pledge the night of the
dinner. It is our hope that it will make
it easier for everyone who wishes to
take advantage of that opportunity
and eliminates the need to wait for a
phone call or visit. However, if you
prefer that call on Super Sunday or
the personal touch of a one of our volunteers calling on you during the
spring, we will be happy to accommodate you. The critical point is that we
do our best to have a successful Campaign. It is our community’s vehicle
for funding our local programs, your
CSJCC, and the many needs of our
Jewish family here at home, in Israel,
and around the globe.
Thank You, Brina!
Finally, I want to wish Brina
Reinstein the best as she transitions
from 22 years as our Campaign
director to retirement. Of course, I
am not sure that she will really
retire. I don’t see Brina sitting still
for very long. She has had a great
career and enjoys a well-deserved
reputation within federation circles,
and her colleagues nationwide hold
her in high esteem. Filling her position is one task that I have not been
looking forward to, nor has it been
easy. I am very appreciative of the
fact that she remained with us during my first year on the job. I wish
her all the best and am very glad
that she will still be living in Tulsa. Awards Dinner
