“Making Sense of Macrobiotics” with Denny Waxman at the Gershman Y ealthy Conversations returns to the Gershman Y on Wednesday, February 18, at 7 p.m. with “Making Sense of Macrobiotics,” featuring world-renowned macro biotic expert and author Denny Wax man. Waxman will discuss what the term “macrobiotics” actually encompasses, and how one can go about transitioning to a macrobiotic diet. He will delve into his philosophy of the seven steps to feel fabulous, look vibrant, and think clearly. More than just what foods to eat, macrobiotics is also about how to eat them. One of the founders of American Macro biotics, Denny Waxman has been a macrobiotic counselor in Philadelphia since the 1970s, working tirelessly to change the food narrative in this country from a diet dependent primarily on animal and dairy food to one based primarily on plants. Waxman founded Essene Market & Café, the first health-food store in Philadelphia. In 1969, he began study ing with Michio Kushi and earned directorship of the Kushi Institute and the Commu nity Health Foundation in London in the 1980s. He has written “10 Steps to Strengthening
H
Health” with Ruth Ann Flynn, “The Great Life Diet,” and a soon-to-be released updated and expanded edition entitled “The Complete Macrobiotic Diet.” In 1997, he founded the Strengthening Health Institute, an independent non-profit school that teaches how to create healthy habits that characterize the macrobiotic approach to eating and living. World-renowned macrobiotic expert and author Denny Waxman presents “Making Sense of Macrobiotics,” on Wednesday, February 18, at 7 p.m. at the Gershman Y. “Many of us know of macrobiotics solely as the healing, disease-curing diet that it is. In fact, macrobiotics is a potent way of life that engages body, mind and spirit,” explained Waxman. “I teach that health is a direction, not a fixed state of being, so that we develop habits that foster healthier choices. Choosing health then becomes effortless as we gradually evolve into our best selves.” If staying well is a state of mind, Healthy See “Making Sense of Macrobiotics” on page 5

City Ave District to Ease Traffic & Create New Accessibility With Addition of Adaptive Signals & New Pedestrian Crossings he City Avenue Special Services District (City Ave District) has been working on new ways to ease traffic in the area and create greater accessibility for pedestrians. One of the ways is the installation of traffic adaptive signals in the corridor. The first phase of the project begins this week on St. Asaph’s Road in Bala Cynwyd, a key parallel route to City Avenue, with expected completion in March 2015. These signals will also be added on City Avenue, with work on that portion expected to begin in the spring. There will be very limited impact to traffic during this process, with any work done in travel lanes completed during non-peak hours. Traffic adaptive signals use technology to adapt the timing of green lights to accommodate changing traffic patterns and ease traffic congestion. Conventional signal systems use pre-programmed timing schedules which often contribute to traffic congestion and delay. The adaptive signal equipment will use video cameras and a newly-installed wireless system to monitor the volume of vehicles on each approach of every intersection in real-time, and will adjust the signal timing on a cycle-by-cycle basis to minimize the overall delay to traffic at the intersection, maintain progression along the roadway, and provide timing for safe pedestrian crossings. In addition to the new signal technology, the intersection of St. Asaph’s Road and Monument Road/Presidential Boulevard will be upgraded to include new ADA compliant pedestrian ramps, pedestrian push buttons, and pedestrian signals. City Ave will receive an additional upgrade of pedestrian push buttons as well. Commented Terrence Foley, President & CEO of the City

Ave District, “The installation of these new adaptive signals is just one way we are working to ease traffic and congestion in our District, while also creating safer pedestrian crossings. Our overall goal is to make the City Ave District an even more accessible destination for those living, working, or exploring here.” Studies on the impact of adaptive signals have demonstrated a reduction in peak hour delays anywhere from 10 to 30 percent. This project was initiated by the City Ave District with support from a $250,000 ARLE (Automated Red Light Enforcement) grant from PennDOT. Additional funding was received from Lower Merion Township to upgrade the ADA pedestrian ramps at the intersection of St. Asaph’s Road and Monument Road. Improvement to traffic flow along St. Asaph’s Road was identified as part of a joint study effort between City Ave District and Lower Merion Township, which focused on revitalization of the City Avenue Corridor. The adaptive traffic signal equipment will be installed at five intersections along St. Asaph’s Road. The City Ave District works with businesses, property owners, developers, and residents to shape the future of this important corridor. This is a unique partnership between the City of Philadelphia and the Township of Lower Merion. Spanning across Philadelphia and Lower Merion Townships in Montgomery County, the District is the first multi-jurisdictional special services or business improvement district in North America.

Har Zion Temple Men’s Club Hosts Rabbi Stephen Lewis Fuchs oin Har Zion Temple’s Men’s Club in welcoming Rabbi Stephen Lewis Fuchs February 8, 2015, 10 a.m. at Har Zion Temple, 1500 Hagys Ford Road, Penn Valley, PA 19072. Rabbi Fuchs, life-long rabbi and beloved teacher, scholar and former president of the World Union for Progressive Judaism, will speak about his new book, “What’s In It For Me? Finding Ourselves in Biblical Narratives.” This book is a stellar new work that distills the timeless beauty, wisdom and complexity of biblical narrative, presenting it in a highly readable, riveting and relevant format for the contemporary reader. Rabbi Fuchs speaks to the believer and the non-believer alike, to the Jew, to the Gentile, to anyone who is interested in mining the richness of biblical narrative for meaning that is immediately applicable to their life. Most originally, the penultimate chapter is devoted to those who do not believe in God. The closing portion of the book examines the usefulness and dimensions of the journey itself undertaken by delving into biblical narrative in an effort to find personal meaning. Plan to join for brunch and this compelling presentation by Rabbi Fuchs. RSVP to drsmoskowitz@gmail.com. For information, contact Har Zion Temple at 610-667-5000.

VoxAmaDeus Presents the “Renaissance Candlemas” ushly costumed professional vocalists and period-instrument minstrels perform “Renaissance Candlemas”—glorious music from the Renaissance and early Baroque periods (ca. 1550 to 1675), celebrating the time of the liturgical calendar when winter begins to give way to spring. Under the musical direction of Valentin Radu, the lushly costumed professional singers and instrumentalists of the Vox Renaissance Consort will perform music composed by Jacob Arcadelt, William Byrd, Claudio Monteverdi, Thomas Morley, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, Heinrich Schűtz and Antonio Vivaldi. What is Candlemas? Candlemas is one of the most ancient feasts of the Christian Church, observed forty days after Christ mas. Often called The Feast of the Presentation, it is celebrated on February 2 (or by some denominations, on the Sun day between January 28 and February 3). As defined in the
L
Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, the word Candlemas is derived from the Middle English word candelmasse, which in turn came from the Old English word candelmæsse, and which itself was built on the words candel + mæsse (candle + mass or feast). The word Candlemas appears in usage before the 12th century, with the term “Candle Mass” also used. “Renaissance Candlemas” will be presented one time only on Friday, February 8 at 6:30 p.m. in Daylesford Abbey, located at 220 South Valley Road in Paoli, PA 19301(about one mile south of the SEPTA Station on Old Lancaster Avenue/ Route 30 in the center of Paoli).

Germantown Friends’ New January Term Offers Students More Choice, Less Homework hen Upper School students returned to Germantown Friends in January after Winter Break, they did not resume their regular study of English, history, math, science and language. Instead, they immersed themselves in classes with unexpected, thought-provoking names such as Baseball in American Society, Unit Origami, Charles Darwin: A Life in Science and The Mystical World of James Bond. Part of the Upper School’s new January Term, or J-Term, these courses are among those offered by GFS faculty and staff, who were tasked with creating four-week “mini courses” on subjects they were “passionate about” outside of the regularly-offered curriculum. “I said to the faculty, ‘We all have something right now in our back pocket that we’re dying to teach or that we can teach or that we just don’t have enough time to teach. Put it forward,’” shares Head of School Dana Weeks, who returned to the classroom this month to lead two sections of Topics in Neurobiology. “The success of a program like this is that you’re capitalizing on faculty expertise and interest because a course is only as good as the person who’s teaching it; the more excited you are about it, the better the class is going to be.” Planning for January Term began last spring, when a committee was formed to create a mission for the program and a plan for how it would function. The committee considered: requiring less homework, reducing stress for both students and faculty; longer class times, providing more space for experimentation, investigation and reflection; and weekly courserelated, community-building field trips, to get the students out of the classroom and into the world. The ultimate objective was to offer students expanded learning opportunities in a more relaxed setting. “Some of the goals behind initiating a month-long elective program were to expand our course offerings, to live out our school mission of ‘embracing the city’ [with weekly field In Larry Ottman’s Unit Origami class, one of the courses trips] and to honor the multi-talented faculty who often have offered as part of Germantown Friends School’s new January more passion and skills than can normally be accommodatTerm, students learn several basic unit folds to help them ed in our regular course offerings,” said Chris Singler, English explore and create more complicated and aesthetically Department Head and clerk interesting models. Photo/Jamieson of the J-Term Committee, who is currently teaching a J-Term course on Cyborgs, Megacorporations and the Dystopian Future: Cyberpunk Fiction and Movies. “Early reports have included that the students are remembering more because they have more time to reflect on the ideas presented in class, and that the weekly Friday field trips enable faculty and students to deepen connections as a community while exploring our phenomenal city.” Last fall, students in grades 9, 10 and 12 – since the 1970s, eleventh graders at GFS have pursued independent projects during the month of January – were asked to select five to six courses from a catalog of close to 100, offered in once weekly, three-hour blocks; twiceweekly, 90-minute sessions; or thrice weekly, hour-long classes. The schedule also allows for extra time for independent study or student club meetings, and having mixed-grade classes offers more diverse, multi-perspective discussions. All courses are graded on a pass/fail basis. Early reports from students have been enthusiastic. “J-Term has allowed me to take unusual classes that I otherwise wouldn’t have been able to take at any high school,” says senior Jesse Overholser, whose course load includes Mass Incarceration, Astronomy, Magazine Journalism and Spain Before and After Franco. “One of my favorite classes is tutoring first graders at a local school. The kids are amazing, and working with them has inspired me to get [involved] locally to help fix our school crisis. JTerm has also given me more time to devote to my extracurriculars, like Mock Trial and the school newspaper, because teachers are giving less homework.” With J-Term classes now in their final week, many students are sad to say good-bye to their engaging electives. “J-Term has been one of the best educational experiences I have ever had,” says senior Lauren Cunfer. “I am taking classes on topics that I actually want to pursue as careers, and I have never felt more productive or excited when coming to school.” Concludes Head of School Dana Weeks, “The advantage of January Term is that it changes the pace of the year and the tone of the students’ experiences. Kids are happy—they’re home talking about their classes, and parents have reported that they’ve never had such extensive conversations with their children about what they’re doing in school. The best part has been listening to the students and hearing their enthusiasm; they’re literally joyful when they talk about their courses. I think the whole thing has been a huge success.”

In a message to parents, Middle School Principal Alexa Quinn wrote, “Events in Ferguson, to see the students and teachers come together as a community with one common cause New York, and Cleveland have left many of our students and faculty dismayed, distressed, in mind.

Jazz Bridge Second Wednesdays Concert Series in Center City presents a Special Tribute to the late John Blake, on Wednesday, February 11. azz Bridge Second Wednesdays Concert Series in Center City presents a Special Tribute to the late John Blake, on Wednesday, February 11, at the Lutheran Church of the Holy Communion, 2110 Chestnut Street. Tickets are $10, $5 for students, and are available only at the door. Show time is 7:30 p.m. Information: 215-517-8337 or visit jazzbridge.org/ events/neighborhood-concerts. On August 15, 2014, the international jazz community lost one of its most beloved members, violinist/composer/educator/lecturer/author and Philadelphian John Blake, Jr. Blake had an incredible career as an award-winning soloist with groups led by the likes of Archie Shepp, Billy Taylor, James Newton, Grover Washington, Jr., and for five years, with the legendary McCoy Tyner. He was also a leader and recording artist in his own right, having released his debut CD, “Maiden Dance,” in 1984. As an educator, Blake was on the faculty of the University of the Arts, the Manhattan School of Music, and was a guest lecturer at Berklee College of Music. In 2004 he was appointed to the “Basler Chair of Excellence” for the winter semester at East Tennessee State University, and in that year also was awarded a Chamber Music America Jazz Composer Grant. Performing in this Jazz Bridge Special Tribute are artists who have worked with John Blake and know his music well. They include pianist Luke Carlos O’Reilly, drummer Leon Jordan, Jr., bassist Gerald Veasley, and violinist Benjamin Sutin, one of Blake’s most promising students. Miriam Suzzette Ortiz will conduct a small choral ensemble to perform two of Blake’s vocal pieces. This evening will be a touching, loving and mindful tribute to a great master. Jazz Bridge, an award-winning nonprofit dedicated to assisting Greater Philadelphia Metro area jazz and blues musicians and vocalists in times of crisis, sponsors these neighborhood concerts throughout the region to keep the sound of Philadelphia alive.
