A new leader for Beth Chaim Interim rabbi presides over congregation after retirement of Rabbi Eric Wisnia By MicHElE alPErin

On the rebound North graduate back on the hardwood after recovering from herniated disc By JUsTin FEil Chrissy DiCindio’s internship last summer connected her to Comron Saifi, the director of Clinical Spine Research at Penn Medicine. DiCindio, a 2017 graduate of West Windsor-Plainsboro High North, won’t forget the first time

that Saifi invited her into the operating room to observe spinal surgery. Said DiCindio: “I was standing in the corner trying to make myself as small as possible, which was not easy.” DiCindio doesn’t do small. She is a 6-foot-2 forward for the University of Pennsylvania women’s basketball team, which narrowly missed out on an automatic berth to the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament after a 65–54 loss to Princeton on March 17 in the finals of the Ivy League Tournament.

They played in the National Invitational Tournament on the weekend of March 22, winning against American, 64-45, in the first round, and losing to Providence, 64-54, in the second. Although her playing time on the team was minimal this season—she played a total of 28 minutes in the last 10 games— she said that she’s enjoyed being a member of the team. “I’m playing with one of the best players, Eleah Parker, who’s second in shot blocks in the country,” DiCindio said. “I See DICINDIO, Page 6

Following the retirement of Rabbi Eric Wisnia after 42 years with Congregation Beth Chaim, Rabbi Brian Beal has stepped in as interim rabbi until June 30, 2020. “Any time a beloved leader retires, he leaves a hole of some sort in the community and at the same time presents an opportunity to reimagine and create and grow,” says Beal, who has over 20 years of rabbinic experience under his belt. “My job is to both fulfill all of the responsibilities that in this congregation a senior rabbi will do, in addition to helping the congregation use this period of transition as an opportunity to address challenges and as an opportunity for reenvisioning and growth,” Beal says. The interim rabbi plays a unique role. “When a newer rabbi arrives, it is an opportunity for the clergy to look at worship and how to engage congregants where they are today—just by me being me and speaking about topics important to me,” Beal says. He says he hopes to bring his passion for inclusion of all types of disabilities to expand access at Beth Chaim. Sharing this passion, his sons, for their bar mitzvah projects, installed hearing loops

that enable people with most hearing aids to connect directly to a microphone in their synagogue and a Jewish Federation building. “It is as if the person speaking at the microphone is speaking directly into your ear,” Beal says. He also mentions making large-print prayer books available and making sure students with learning challenges are as fully integrated as possible into the religious school. Beal will also share his business background to help Beth Chaim’s leadership to “envision where they are and where they want to be going forward vis-àvis membership outreach and member inreach.” So how did a senior rabbi with 20 years of experience decide to become an interim rabbi—a position that he now loves? Changes in the broader community in Upper Nyack, New York, where he had served for 13 years, prompted a decision on his part to leave Temple Beth Torah. “We had a beautiful and warm and respectful relationship with my synagogue—we loved it there,” Beal says. “At the same time the demographics became such that it was important for the synagogue to look for opportunities to merge with other synagogues, and I didn’t want to be an obstacle to that.” Beal’s decision to leave Beth Torah almost immediately opened a door for his wife, Naomi Adler, who was soon See BEAL, Page 10

around town WWAC presents exhibition of members’ works The West Windsor Arts Council is showcasing the work of many of its talented member artists in the exhibition Fiction: The Art Show. The show is running through May 17. The theme was chosen in conjunction with the spring theatrical performance of “Fiction” by Steven Dietz and produced by the Pegasus Theatre Company to be staged at the West Windsor Arts Center. (See story below.) The juror, Michael Joseph, is a Rare Books Librarian at Rutgers University and the founding director of the New Jersey Book Arts Symposium. The exhibition consists of 39 artworks, representing 26 artists, 3 of which were selected by Joseph to be awarded prizes for their outstanding work and relevance to the show theme. Best in Show, a $100 prize, went to Meta Dunkly Arnold for her work “Adeline at the Window.” Second place, a $50 Prize, went to Brigitte A. Calderon’s “Tender is the night. Homage to F.

“Adeline at the Window,” portrays her favorite scene in Ann Radcliffe’s early gothic novel, The Romance of the Forest. Calderon and McGuff-Silverman also examine art and literature through their art. Calderon created “Tender is the night. Homage to F. Scott Fitzgerald,” in reaction to the story that F. Scott Fitzgerald tells in

AROUND TOWN cont. from Page 3 ried writers. When Linda is diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor, she asks Michael if she can read his journals. This sets off a series of events that blur the boundaries between past and present, fact and fiction, trust and betrayal. The couple’s capacity for forgiveness is tested, and they are forced to face the consequences of their actions. “The very first time I read Fiction, I was struck by how gorgeous the writing is and then was amazed by how deeply it touched me,” said director Peter Bisgaier. “This play was love at first sight for me.” Fiction uses flashbacks, journal entries, confessions and confrontations to reveal its story. “It’s a kind of hall of mirrors that reflects this couple’s life together,” said actress Jennifer Nasta Zefutie (Linda). “It’s full of twists and turns that leave you questioning what to believe and whether unconditional love is possible despite our flaws.” “The beauty of this play is that, even though it’s about the secrets we keep, it’s such an honest and true telling of what a long-term loving relationship can be,” Bisgaier said. “With a simplicity of staging, we’ll reveal the beauty of this story and the depth of the relationships it explores.” Pegasus Theatre Company is becoming known for its intimate, professional productions. Past productions, including the East Coast premiere of Human Error by Eric Pfeffinger, Bakersfield Mist by Stephen Sachs, and Chapter Two by Neil Simon, have been well reviewed by critics and audiences.

Minorities shouldn’t be lumped into one group By riya KoHli Technically, I am a minority. As a woman and a first-generation U.S. citizen of Indian descent, my identity descriptors fit exactly what it means to be a minority in America. Still, in my 19 years, I have never felt remotely isolated due to my ethnicity until coming to American University (located in Washington D.C.) five months ago. I come from an overwhelmingly diverse part of New Jersey. South Asians populate the area so intensely that our neighboring town, West Windsor, is affectionately referred to as “West Windia.” I grew up with friends who looked like me, and who I would see at family parties, cultural events and when my mom dragged me to go shopping with her at the Indian store. I never really saw myself as brown; my life was so immersed in that identity that I didn’t get a chance to step away from it and see myself for who I was. Coming to AU was a jarring experience in that respect. My mom always teased me, saying, “as soon as you go to college, you’re gonna wish you had my home-cooked food!” Honestly, the week I got to AU I realized how right she was (although that might say more about AU Dining than my culture shock). My life went from being surrounded by brown people to struggling to find one person who knew what gulab jamun was. Growing up where I did, I never understood why people always talked about a divide between white people and everyone else. All my white friends had mostly Asian friends, and we essentially adopted them into our cultures—there was never any reason to feel like they were different. Now, sitting in a 50-person class where I’m the only brown person and

interacting with white people who ask yogasoulnj.com me if I’m “ethnic” to avoid insulting me by assuming my background, it’s clear 64 Princeton Hightstown Rd, Princeton Junction 609.799.4791 there is a very real divide. This divide is made even clearer when they assume my whole life story, based entirely on the fact of my ethnicity.

People here treat me like I’ve been through so much just because my parents were born in India.

DICINDIO continued from Page 1 get to work out with her, play against her. We make each other better.” DiCindio is a sophomore who had to use a medical redshirt last year while recovering from a herniated disc in her back. Although she doesn’t play a lot, she’s a valuable member of the Quakers. “My role is different than high school,” said DiCindio, who was the the 2017 Colonial Valley Conference Player of the Year. “I’ve accepted my role of helping my teammates be the best they can be. If I’m not on the court, I’m cheering whoever’s on the court.” Penn head coach Mike McLaughlin says that DiCindio has developed “a nice little role” on the team. “It just hasn’t been on the floor. But she’s important. She’s done her job. She’s accepted where she’s at now. Obviously she wants to get on the floor, but she has some work to do. She has some very good players ahead of her,” he said in an interview. DiCindio got behind last year when she was sidelined with her back injury. She had to learn how to run properly, work out and move properly and rehabilitate into a stronger athlete. “It’s tough for anyone,” McLaughlin said. “I ask everyone to embrace whatever their role is. You don’t want anyone accepting not playing. They’re all competitive athletes...Understanding how difficult that is, doing this sport at the college level for six, seven, eight months straight and not getting on the floor, I have a great deal of respect for anyone—particularly Chrissy—that gets it.” DiCindio’s internship also had her finding a role after her first year of college studies. She found the opportunity through the Penn Undergraduate Research Mentoring Program. “It was my first experience establishing a relationship with a professional [who] was highly regarded,” DiCindio said. “It’s the first time I had a real boss. Knowing my place was fascinating. You’re at the bottom of the chain, you haven’t been there a while, and understanding my role in things, it wasn’t clear cut what I was supposed to do. I had to some searching about my responsibilities and I had to understand who to ask and what to ask and I had to take ownership of my own work that was going to be presented to a professional.” DiCindio said she was pleased with the way it all worked out. She did not originally apply for the internship with Saifi. But when an internship she applied for did not receive funding, she jumped at the opportunity to work with him. “He talked to me on the phone and we talked about sports, talked about my own back injury I had, and he opened up the floor to what I wanted to do,” DiCindio said. “I said I was open to learning and absorbing as much as possible. There are so many jobs and opportunities, I don’t know what I’m totally interested in. I’m interested in the body and how it works.” DiCindio is majoring in biological basis of behavior, which focuses more on the brain and its functionality, but she found herself getting involved deeper in the orthopedic side of medicine. The operating room was only the tip of the iceberg for her and a fellow intern working with Saifi. They shadowed Saifi and observed

Chrissy DiCindio plays a game for High School North against Robbinsville in 2017. how he interacted and used diagnostic tools with patients. “Part of the job was observing in the clinic,” DiCindio said. “The other student and I wrote papers to be submitted to The Spine Journal. We looked at surgical trends and demographic trends for spinal surgeries. Eventually our plan is to submit to The Spine Journal. It’s a long process. We’re probably at the bottom of his list, but I have the opportunity to be the first author on two articles as an undergrad, which would be amazing.” DiCindio penned one paper on the use of bone morphogenetic protein, which promotes bone growth. BMP can be placed directly into a spinal column that is being fused during surgery. “The whole history of BMP is a little complicated because the company that made it had some falsifying of data,” DiCindio said. “There’s some controversy over the material. My paper included some of that drama, but it was mostly focused on what surgeries it was used in, and the people that received it— the demographics data.” Her other paper was on outpatient spinal fusion surgery and the trends associated with it. DiCindio took the subway to Center City to her internship daily, then returned to work into shape for this basketball season. She lived in the same house that she shared with nine Penn basketball teammates during the academic year, and worked out with Kristen Daley, a 6-1 junior who was interning at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. After work, they would play pick-up games with the Drexel Team. Being able to have that summer opportunity is an important aspect of DiCindio’s schooling. It’s also meaningful to the basketball program. “The Ivy League model, the Penn model, we don’t have summer access when it comes down to basketball,” McLaughlin said. “Our kids don’t have to go to summer school. The whole reason being is these kids can do internships around the country, around the world. The model has been a great fit. It’s a great system because it allows these kids to be a true student and an athlete.”


DiCindio chose to attend Penn following a standout career at North. She graduated after scoring 1,135 points, pulling down 934 rebounds and blocking 245 shots and helping the Knights win the 2017 Mercer County Tournament. She remains close to the Knights program now steered by head coach Frank Moore after her coach, Bob Boyce, retired. “Jordan Brown, I talk to a lot,” DiCindio said of the Knights star player. “Frank, I’m in contact with a lot. All the girls, we do social media. Jordan’s 1,000th point, we were all congratulating her. I love those girls, and all of us when something big happens talk about it. Frank is such a good guy. We’re happy when he’s successful.” The Knights are also proudly following their alumnae like DiCindio. DiCindio had just graduated and was in the midst of Penn’s summer workout plan when her back injury flared up. “These things happen,” DiCindio said. “They (Penn) were forgiving and helpful and hooked me up with probably the best physical therapist I’ve met. I got steroid injections in my back. I worked my butt off to be able to run again with no pain.” DiCindio rejoined Penn at the end of the season in practices last year and continued to build up her body while doing

her internship. She came into this season at full strength, though she still gives up some size and strength to some of her fellow post players in college. “What she gives away sometimes with her limitations, her athletic ability, her foot speed, her vertical, but she does compete,” McLaughlin said. “She’s coachable. If you tell her, ‘Don’t let this kid catch it within three feet of the box,’ she’ll do it. She’ll work to make sure that doesn’t happen.” DiCindio is hoping to help the Quakers push toward an Ivy League championship and NCAA tournament berth in her third year. “The 18 of us and the managers, we’re best friends,” DiCindio said. “We’d do anything for each other. That absolutely shows on the court.” DiCindio is also currently looking into MindCORE, a program that connects intelligence and behavior-based research within different schools at Penn, and using her basketball connections to reach some of the team’s most ardent followers about summer internships. “She’s done her part,” McLaughlin said. “It’s high level basketball. We’re a top-70 RPI team. She’s doing what she can do. We’re happy to have her.”

SPRINGTIME BRACES! Academy Dental is a warm, inviting SPA-themed dentist facility in Hamilton, and is rated as one of the best places by Hulafrog for dental treatment. Dr. Navleen Thind, D.D.S. is a trusted dentist who practices adults and kids’ dentistry, along with Dr. Steven Reff, Dr. Pankaj Puri (Orthodontist) and Dr. Gunjan Parmar. Today, Dr. Pankaj Puri (Orthodontist) is sharing his top secrets to help you live a life fully of happy, healthy and grateful dental experiences. Everyone loves to look beautiful and be appreciated for their looks. Braces or Invisalign treatment can give you and your family a very impressive, and happy smile for life. Spring time brings new and enhanced energy into our lives, and we look forward to execute our cherished goals we so much have been looking forward to. Feeling beautiful is a wonderful thing, it uplifts your self-esteem and creates a positive reinforcement of can-do attitude. Today, Dr. Puri (Orthodontist) provides his top 4 tips to getting started on your own journey to success, which is full of happiness, health and straight teeth for life. 1. FIRST THINGS FIRST: Orthodontic treatment is not only for children, adults also benefit from it tremendously by realigning their teeth. Invisalign is a great treatment to offer the benefits if you qualify, with the added advantage of cosmetically appealing clear braces which are suitable for work, as well as social situations. Children, on the other hand, start early in their school years, and sometimes as late as when in college. Dr. Pankaj Puri offers full comprehensive Orthodontic treatment for all ages, and is always looking forward to meet new families who need guidance on starting their journey for a healthy smile. 2. CONVENIENCE: Orthodontic treatment is often a long treatment spanning from one to two years, or in some cases a little more. Convenience is one of the main factors which patients look for when selecting a provider. Academy Dental is open 7 days a week for any dental emergencies, and is able to complement Dr. Pankaj Puri’s clinical hours every month with added

peace of mind of emergency coverage. Emergencies happen, and knowing you have someone who cares for you, and is available to provide assistance on most days – can help you achieve your goal with greater ease! When you head out of town this summer on vacation, keep your Orthodontist practice’s number handy, but also pack and emergency kit with you. Try to bring tweezers, nail clipper, and some orthodontic wax in order to help guide a loose wire should you need to. 3. KEEPING ON TRACK: Most important in any Braces or Invisalign treatment is to stay in touch! Staying in touch with your Orthodontist office for monthly appointment visits is critical to achieving long-lasting beautiful results. Most offices may call you or provide you with an appointment reminder so you can mark your calendars. Academy Dental has invested in automatic reminder systems which track your appointments schedule, and automatically keep you in the loop. You will never miss an appointment with us! Should emergencies happen, we keep track of your treatment plan, and reach out to you proactively so you can be back on your journey! When selecting your braces provider, it is important to also research their office scheduling and reminder systems, to ensure they are setup to care for your beautiful smile just the way you do! 4. THE SECRET: What if you could have braces that do not cost a fortune? Academy Dental loves their patients and has a program that makes the entire program accessible to everyone, including students to fund on their own! It starts with trust, and offering special payment plans that skip the traditional financing offers which come with higher interest charges. Direct payment to Academy Dental for your braces reduce all overheads, and most patients can access the entire braces treatment for under $6.16 a day. What’s even better? You choose your style – clear/Invisalign or traditional wire based braces. Call our office today and speak with our office manager about this great offer.

BEAL continued from Page 1 invited to be in the pool of candidates for CEO at the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia. They offered her the job, and she started work in May 2014, becoming the first woman to serve in that position in Philadelphia and, barring a short term appointment, the only woman CEO in the top 20 Jewish federations in the country—until Erika Rudin-Luria became CEO in Cleveland in January 2019. “I believe in the importance of women serving as leaders in the Jewish community. She had this opportunity of being part of breaking the ceiling; and I thought it was important that I live my values at the same time that I offer them in a sermon,” Beal says. “I had a son entering high school and two sons entering sixth grade,” he says. “I did not want them to get lost in the transition. I wanted them to have a fulltime parent attending to their needs, and I wanted that role.” But when he was ready to return to work a couple of years later, he found himself in a Jewish community with little rabbinic turnover, except for a few positions as assistant or associate rabbis that were not appropriate for someone of his experience. Some opportunities to return to fundraising came through, but, Beal says, “I love being a rabbi.” This love led him to try out a new specialty in the Reform movement—interim rabbi—where “someone comes in and helps a congregation through the transi-

Rabbi Brian Beal has been leading Congregation Beth Chaim since the retirement of Eric Wisnia earlier this year. tion as they prepare to hire their settled [permanent] rabbi.” “The interim rabbi has become professionalized and for many a career,” says Beal, who did intensive training with the Interim Ministry Network in August 2017. Beal’s first position as interim rabbi was as replacement for a rabbi on maternity leave at Beth David Reform Congregation in Gladwyne, Pennsylvania, and

Even as a young child, he says, “I had a calling to really be engaged in active Jewish living in my synagogue.” Inspired by Rabbi Weiner, he says, “I was one of those who loved going to Sunday school. I found my home, my comfort, and my inspiration in the synagogue and Jewish living.” In high school he was president of his youth group, and religious and cultural vice president of the regional Reform Jersey Federation of Temple Youth. At Emory University, Beal was active in the campus Hillel, which served all Jewish students, then started the Reform Jewish Student Committee, which, he says, “became a major campus organization for liberal [i.e., non-Orthodox] Jews.” After graduating with a bachelor of arts in psychology in May 1986, Beal stayed at Emory another seven years as a professional fundraiser, rising from telefund coordinator to director of reunion giving. While working, he served as advisor to the Reform Jewish Student Committee, taught religious school and advised the youth group at Temple Sinai in Sandy Springs, and was a member of Temple Emanu-el, also in Sandy Springs, where, Beal says, “Rabbi Stanley Davids became my mentor as I decided to apply to rabbinical school.” Beal matriculated at Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in 1993, spending his first year in Jerusalem and the next four years in Cincinnati, Ohio. While he was in rabbinical school,

his second was in 2017-2018 at Temple Beth-El in Jersey City. Born in Brooklyn, Beal moved to Hazlet at age 5. His father, now retired, represented manufacturers in the disposables industry (e.g., wax paper and aluminum cans). His mother did not work outside the home. Recalling his youth playing Little League baseball and involved in scouting, Beal said, “I was blessed that my father was everything from my troop leader to baseball coach—it was that kind of family.” His father had grown up as a secular Jew and his mother in an Orthodox Jewish household. After moving to New Jersey with their children, Beal said, “They needed to find a synagogue that met them halfway, so to speak, but that also had that inspiration, and Rabbi Henry Weiner [at the Reform synagogue, Temple Shalom in Aberdeen, NJ] was an extraordinarily charismatic, warm and welcoming rabbi. That’s what attracted them to that community and that connection lasted for many years.” Describing the Jewish practice of his family—sending their children to religious school and practicing the holidays—he says, “Absolutely Jewish values and Jewish practice was part of our family household but certainly not in an intense, observant way.” Talking about what drew him to the clergy, Beal uses the word “calling,” a word prevalent among non-Jewish clergy but not usually in the Jewish community.

Beal met his wife, then an assistant district attorney for Monroe County in Rochester, New York, where she successfully prosecuted cases of violence against women and children. A year later Beal and Adler met again at the national biennial of the Union for Reform Judaism in Atlanta, where they started a long-distance relationship between Cincinnati and Rochester. A year and a half later they got engaged. Beal recalls asking Adler what she wanted to do in the long term, and her response was either a district attorney or the chief executive officer of a national nonprofit. He strongly suggested she needed fundraising experience, and in 1997 she heeded his advice and accepted a job as director of the Community Relations Council and Women’s Division of the Jewish Federation of Greater Dayton, only an hour from Cincinnati. The couple married in June 1998, the same month Beal was ordained as a rabbi, and in July moved to Manalapan, where he became associate rabbi at Temple Shaari Emeth. He was particularly proud of his work with youth and adult education programming and with intermarried couples, and of the program he established in partnership with the Jewish Family Services to support Jews in recovery and their

loved ones. From 1999 to 2001 Adler worked as director of development at Rutgers University’s Bildner Center for the Study of Jewish Life. In July 2001 Beal started what became a 13-year gig at Temple Beth Torah in Upper Nyack, NY. In Rockland, he launched “Shaareinu,” a nationally recognized initiative to involve people with disabilities, special needs, and other issues; partnered with interfaith clergy and congregations to house the homeless, host 12-step groups, and assist hurricane victims; planned interfaith study and programming; and co-founded Rockland Unite, an initiative to bring together high school students from each of the Abrahamic religions—Muslims, Jews and Christians. While Beal was at Temple Beth Torah, Adler became president and CEO of United Way of Rockland County in 2001, then in 2008 of United Way of Westchester and Putnam Counties. Happy to once again be serving as an interim rabbi, Beal is excited about the relationship he is developing with Congregation Beth Chaim. “I feel very blessed to be part of this congregation. It is an extraordinarily welcoming and engaged sacred community, with the best of values and ideals.”

Rabbi delivers ‘Wisnistotelian logic’ in final Yom Kippur sermon By Eric Wisnia In September, Congregation Beth Chaim Senior Rabbi Eric Wisnia delivered his final Yom Kippur sermon. Wisnia retired earlier this year after serving the community for 42 years. Below is a lightly edited version of Wisnia’s sermon. *** You remember that Jewish paint contractor? On many jobs, he had for years been watering down his paint to save money. On Yom Kippur, he felt guilty and went to his rabbi to confess. You know what the rabbi said: “Repaint, my son… and thin no more.” This is it. My last Yom Kippur; the end is near. Judgement day has come, and I must ask myself, “What do I stand for?” I’m ready to meet my end, and as I begin to slowly fade away and evanesce into the future, I want to take account on this, my 42nd Yom Kippur as the senior rabbi of Beth Chaim. I have tried to be a good rabbi these last 41 years. I have given my heart and soul to Congregation Beth Chaim, as well as all of my days and nights. I don’t know what you will remember of me when you look back, but I hope you will remember me smiling at you. And I hope you will remember what I tried to teach, the ideas that I call the “cardinal principles of Wisnistotelian logic.” For those who don’t get this inside joke, let me explain. A younger, thinner, more hair suite Eric Wisnia, learned in

12THE NEWS | March 29, 2019

Rabbi Eric Wisnia lifts the Torah at Congregation Beth Chaim, which he had led for more than 40 years. He retired earlier this year. college at the University of Pennsylvania back in the 60’s that there was a body of knowledge taught by Aristotle, the great Greek pedagogue and tutor of the young Alexander the Great. Scholars have called body of knowledge “Aristotelian Logic.” Now I am, sadly, no Aristotle. But to sav my vanity, I have called the little tidbits of knowledge that I cling to Wisnistotelian logic. I do so to honor the master, Aristotle and laugh at myself.

The first bit of Wisnistotelian logic: We Jews take Torah seriously; we don’t take it literally. I learned this from my colleague, Rabbi Arnie Gluck of Hillsborough—a brilliant and talented Reform rabbi, who learned it from Rabbi Gunther Plaut, editor of the Reform chumash (Five Books of Moses). The Torah is our book, and we Jews are the people of the book. It is the story of our history, our myths, our morality and our holidays. In

short, Torah is what we learn from and live from. It tells us how to be good, moral people. It tells us how to organize our year and the right way to live. The Torah was written down by our ancestors in their ancient language, Hebrew. The several different writings that had been handed down were collected by Ezra the sofer, the scribe, in 450 BCE. The Jews had just returned from Babylonian exile and finished rebuilding Jerusalem and our new, “second” Temple. Ezra edited it all into one big scroll and then read it aloud to the people at that first Rosh HaShanah when we dedicated our new Second Temple. We have been reading and studying it ever since for 2,568 years. You can check out this story in our Bible, as is written in our Ketuvim, in the book of Nehemiah, chapter 8. As I said, we should take our Torah seriously, but not literally. The Torah speaks to us, the Jews, in our human language. It is written for real people: us, the Jews, to learn from and study. Our Rabbis felt it should be studied and pondered, and only then would we understand it. One of the best examples: Exodus, chapter 21, and again in Leviticus, the text tells us, “An eye for an eye.” Our Rabbis in later ages commented about this verse that you couldn’t actually observe it literally, and in fact, they go further telling us not to observe it literally. They teach this to us, by saying: “If a blind man destroys your eye, he has no eye to give in return.” This means that the blind


change things. I have many favorite prayers, but the one on Page 47 in our Shabbat prayerbook is one of my favorites: “Prayer invites God’s presence to suffuse out spirits, God’s will to prevail in our lives. Prayer may not bring water to parched fields, nor mend a broken bridge, nor rebuild a ruined city. But prayer can water an arid soul, mend a broken heart, and rebuild a weakened will” (Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel). We should stop asking God to do things for us. Stop using prayer as a list of wants and demands that we put on God. It doesn’t work, friends, I have tried it! Do you know how many times I have asked God for a million dollars to be left outside my door? Or how many times I asked God not to let my son die in agony? We have to learn that God does not work supernatural miracles just to make us happy. So what is God? Let’s look at “Wisnia’s Corollary”—God=Good. Just add an ‘O’ in the middle! There is goodness in life, we just have to see it all around us. We want the supernatural, but I assure you, it won’t happen. And because we want the supernatural, sometimes we ignore the beauty all around us. One of my favorite stories is about old Zeke down in the Louisiana bayous during a flood after some torrential rains. Old Zeke saw the river rising and his friends all started to move out to shelter, but Zeke believed in the Lord and prayed to God for a miracle to save him. He was not going to budge until God sent a miracle, so he sat on his porch, waiting. The water started to rise slowly, and a cop car came down the street, splashing through the inches-high water as it went. “Sir, we’re here to evacuate you. Now please get in the car.” Old Zeke refused. “I believe in the Lord, and I’m praying for a miracle.” The police could not wait and went on their way.

The water kept rising, and Zeke had to move up to his second floor and was sitting, looking out the window, praying for God to send a miracle. Soon he saw a small motor boat coming up the flooded street. The boat motored over to his window, and the coast guard people yelled up to him, “Sir, please come aboard, we’re evacuating everyone because the water is rising.” “No”, Zeke said. “I’m waiting for the Lord to send a miracle.” And he waved as the boat went further looking for other stranded people. The water kept rising and Zeke had to go up on his roof. Once again, he prayed to God to send a miracle and save him. Instead, he saw a helicopter above him, lowering a chain ladder and calling for him to climb up. Once again, he issued his refrain, “No. I am praying to God and He will send a miracle to save me!” The winds picked up, and the helicopter had to pull away. The water kept rising, and old Zeke drowned. He went up to heaven, of course, and there he met the good Lord. First thing Zeke said was, “Lord, I prayed for a miracle to save me, and where were you?” “Zeke,” the Lord said, “First I sent the cop car, then the coast guard boat and then I sent a helicopter.” We want the supernatural, but to see God, all you have to do is just add an “O” and see the good. It is always all around

We want the supernatural, but to see God, all you have to do is just add an ‘O’ and see the good. It is always all around you.

you. Just look into the eyes of someone who loves you. Remember, “Prayers don’t change things. Prayers change people, and people change things.” Number 3 in Wisnistotelian logic: Jewish theology is implicit in Jewish sociology. Or as I’m fond of saying, “To be Jewish, ya do Jewish.” It means that our philosophy is encapsulated in our rituals and holidays. You learn morality and the concept of “mitzvah” by observing Jewish rituals. Our rituals are there to teach us things about morality and communal living. I remember once when in college I walked into some strange shul, and the gabbai said, “Put on a kippah.” Just to annoy him, I asked, “Why, what does it mean?” He said, “I don’t care, just do it.” I thought that that was idolatry. Worshipping a form without substance. Meaningless ritual doesn’t make you a Jew. We don’t wear a yarmulke because God doesn’t like to see our heads. We wear a yarmulke because it says that “I go up to here, and I stop. There is a higher authority than me.” Performing a ritual should teach you something. Celebrating Pesach with your family isn’t just another nice get together. It is a meaningful statement that you are a Jewish family who recognizes that your ancestors were slaves in Egypt and suffered discrimination. We eat the matzah and do the Seder to remember how we suffered oppression and to pledge to never let that happen again to other “strangers,” because we know the heart of the stranger! Observing the rituals and holidays of See WISNIA, Page 14

man’s eye is not worth the same as the sighted man’s eye. So if we “took” his eye, the loss is not equal. The Rabbis then comment, “ayin tachat ayin: lo mamash, elah mamoan!” If you damage or take his eye, you must pay monetary compensation to the wounded man equal to the loss of the eye. Eye for an eye, not literally, rather in monetary compensation—this is the Jewish law. “Eye for an eye,” our Rabbis taught us, established the principle that the punishment must be equal to the crime. In Shariyah, Muslim law, if you steal, your hand is cut off. That is not “the punishment fits the crime.” It is far worse. In Jewish law you pay back threefold what you stole. You pay damages for what you did, equal to the crime. A second point about not taking the Torah law so literally is the story of Pesach Sheni, or the second Passover told in the book of Numbers, chapter 9, verses 6 and following. Here a story is told that some Jews come before Moses right before Pesach to tell him that their parent died recently and they did the burial. Dealing with dead bodies and burying them is a mitzvah and necessary thing, but it renders one unclean for a month. And—if you are unclean, you cannot make the Passover sacrifice! So these people are caught in a “Catch 22.” They are unclean because they were doing the mitzvah of burying the dead, and now they can’t do the mitzvah of Passover… so they ask Moses what to do. Like any good rabbi, Mo says, “Let me think about that,” and he asks God. God tells him, “Good question, let me think about it, and I’ll tell ya in the morning.” The next morning, God says that Pesach is so important that the unclean people should wait a month and do Peasach a month late because it is better to do it as properly as they can a month later rather than not do it at all. You try to do it right, but you do the best you can. We figure out what Torah wants, and we do the best we can to observe it. We take it seriously, but not always literally.

WISNIA continued from Page 13 our religion teaches us morality. When you stop practicing our rituals, and leave our community, you lose a method of teaching and reinforcing morality to yourself and your family. A meiseh (story) about a shtetl (small town) in Russian Poland in the old days. One fellow, Leybovitch, who used to attend minyan (prayer service) all the time, had a fight with another fellow over something that somebody said to somebody about another person who did something. Leybovitch left the shul in a huff and didn’t come back for a month! The rebbe and the minyan waited. Fortunately, they still had enough for the minyan, but after a month, the rebbe decided, “Dayeinu: genug is genug” (enough is enough). He waited until one cold freezing, snowy morning, and the rebbe walked over to the house and shop of Leybovitch. “Shalom aleichem, Panye Leybovitch.” Surprised, the man responded, “Aleichem shalom, Rebbe.” Leybovitch was about to say something, when the rebbe held up his hand, and, eyeing the fire roaring in the fireplace on the side of the room in the hearth, the rebbe said, “It is cold outside, can I warm myself by your fire?” Surprised, Leybovitch pulled up to chairs and they sat and stared at the fire’s burning coals. Neither one said a word. After a minute, the rebbe picked up the tongs hanging on the side of the hearth and picked out one of the glowing red-hot coals from the middle of the fire. He put in outside the fire, on the bricks that surrounded the outside of the front of the hearth. He

comes to his rebbe right before his Bar put it down and sat back in his chair. Leybovitch didn’t know what to do, so Mitzvah and says, “Rebbe, I have been the two of them sat there, looking at the praying all these years for God to make single burning coal on the bricks outside peace, and there are still wars. And I have the hearth. At first, the coal still burned been praying to God for all these years to bright red with heat. After a while, the feed the hungry, and there is still poverty coal, now all by itself, began to dim, and hunger. And I have been praying all these years for God to heal the sick, and slowly turn black and then go out. The rebbe turned to Leybovitch and there are still people who get sick and said, “Please come back. We need you die. What is the point? Religion is useless and meaningless.” and you need us.” And he walked out. The rebbe smiled and said, “Y’know, To be a Jew, you need to be part of the I too, have noticed this. community, and live a JewThere is still war and ish life. All by itself, a Jewstrife.

I still picture him on the bimah at Temple Shalom in Levittown, quoting this poem to us: The Lord said, “Say ‘We’”; But I shook my head, Held my hands tight behind my back, and said, Stubbornly, “I” The Lord Said, “Say ‘We’”; But I looked upon them, grimy and all awryMyself in those twisted shapes?

Getting Healthy is a Walk in the Park The Health Benefits of Walking According to the National Institutes for Health, just 2.5 hours of moderate aerobic activity per week will help most adults stay healthy. For many, deciding on a fitness program and finding the time to exercise can stop the most well-meaning person in their tracks. Luckily, getting on the path to better health can literally be as easy as a walk in the park. “Walking has a low risk of injury and you don’t need any memberships, special equipment or training to get started,” said DR. JILL YOUNG, a board certified physician at Capital Health Primary Care – Quakerbridge. “Most people don’t need to see a doctor before they begin a walking program, but if you have a chronic health issue or you’re over age 40 and have been inactive for a while, check with your primary care doctor to establish a fitness routine that’s safe for you.” In addition to seeing patients at Capital Health’s primary care office in Lawrenceville, NJ, Dr. Young is a trustee of the 22-mile Lawrence Hopewell Trail, a non-profit that provides communities in Hopewell and Lawrence Townships a safe environment for walking, jogging, and biking.

A brisk walk 30 minutes a day, five days a week will help you burn calories, strengthen your muscles and bones, and can lower your risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and type 2 diabetes. If you have a tight schedule to work around, Dr. Young suggests breaking your walks into three 10-minute sessions per day to enjoy the same benefits, all of which improve your overall fitness and lift your mood along the way. Whether it’s scheduling a wellness check-up or you’re just not feeling well, Capital Health understands that advanced medicine starts with your primary care doctor. If you don’t already have a primary care provider, Capital Health’s Primary Care Network offers convenient offices throughout the greater Mercer, Bucks and Burlington county region.

DON’T LOSE SLEEP OVER DAYLIGHT SAVINGS BASIC TIPS FOR A BETTER NIGHT’S SLEEP Daylight savings time may be a welcome sign of spring and the long summer nights to come, but the “lost hour” can have short-term effects on your normal sleeping patterns. “When you ‘spring forward’ and advance your clocks an hour, the change disrupts your sleep pattern and causes your body clock to become out of sync with the daylightnighttime cycle,” said DR. CALLUM DUPRE, board certified neurologist, fellowship trained sleep medicine specialist, and medical director of the Capital Health Center for Sleep Medicine. “If you’re a night owl, the switch to daylight savings time could have a more noticeable impact.” Your best defense against the disruption caused by the time change is maintaining a consistent sleep routine. Instead of altering your schedule to compensate for the hour of sleep you lose, select a bedtime ritual, such as a warm bath, listening to calm music or reading a book. After you make it through the time change, sticking to a routine year round

OTHER TIPS INCLUDE:

… Create a relaxing bedroom. ∙∙ Remove work materials, computers and televisions. ∙∙ Keep it quiet, dark and cool. … Reduce or eliminate caffeine, nicotine and alcohol intake. … If you can't sleep, try relaxing in another room until you feel tired. … Exercise regularly but not close to bedtime.

will go a long way in improving your quality of sleep and reducing your risk of illness and chronic health problems. If you or your family is having sleep-related problems, contact the Capital Health Center for Sleep Medicine. As the largest, fully accredited center in Mercer and Bucks counties, the Center has provided comprehensive evaluation and treatment for sleep disorders in adults and children for more than 20 years.

On December 19, President & CEO Al Maghazehe and other members of Capital Health’s senior management team joined the CAPITAL HEALTH AUXILIARY for a ribbon-cutting ceremony (pictured right) that marked the grand opening of Capital Thrift, the Auxiliary’s new thrift store located at 2783 Brunswick Pike (Rt. 1 South), Lawrenceville, NJ. The Mercer Mart thrift store, which celebrated its grand opening in 1958, (pictured left) opened on West Hanover Street in Trenton before moving to Front Street until it closed in 2004. Like the Mercer Mart, Capital Thrift is completely staffed and managed by volunteers, and proceeds help the Auxiliary sponsor health and educational programs for patients at Capital Health.

Volunteer Spirit is alive and well at CAPITAL THRIFT In December 2018, the Capital Health Auxiliary celebrated the grand opening of Capital Thrift, a thrift shop in Lawrenceville, NJ that benefits health and educational programs at Capital Health. Although the store is new, the community spirit that drives this effort can trace its roots back to 1958 and an enterprise known as Mercer Mart, Capital Health’s original thrift shop. “Mercer Mart was a mainstay in the city of Trenton for 46 years until its closing in 2004,” said Donna Costanzo, president of the Capital Health Auxiliary. “Inspired by the dedication of the original founders and volunteers at the Mart—many of whom helped run the store from start to finish—we look forward to improving the community and continuing to support the many great programs at Capital Health.” Capital Thrift is located at 2783 Brunswick Pike (Rt. 1 South) in Lawrenceville, NJ. Store hours are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday; 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. on the first and third Sunday of each month; and 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on the first Monday of each month. Purchases may be made with cash or credit card (Visa & Master Cards only—no debit cards). Donations may be dropped off during store hours.

Advanced Screening and Early Treatment helps prevent esophageal cancer Heartburn and acid reflux are common conditions, but if you’re experiencing chronic symptoms, you may have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Left untreated, GERD can cause damage to the lining of the esophagus and lead to Barrett’s esophagus, a precancerous condition that is estimated to affect more than 12 million adults in the United States. In a more severe form of Barrett’s, the lining of the esophagus also contains dysplasia (cells that are turning into cancer). “Barrett’s esophagus commonly goes undiagnosed and can lead to esophageal cancer, making it a potentially life-threatening condition of the digestive system,” said DR. JASON ROGART, director of Interventional Gastroenterology & Therapeutic Endoscopy at Capital Health. “With the advanced screening options available at our Center for Digestive Health, we work to identify Barrett’s in its earliest stages. Our goal is to identify disease progression early, when it can be treated endoscopically, without the need for surgery.” Dr. Rogart leads the Barrett’s esophagus and GERD Program at the Capital Health Center for Digestive Health, which offers these advanced screening, diagnostic and treatment options: High-definition endoscopy with narrow band imaging: Detailed imaging further enhanced by a special filter that focuses light to specific wavelengths for greater image contrast and clarity. Video Laser Endomicroscopy (VLE): High-resolution, crosssectional imaging of the outermost lining of the esophagus. Studies show this to have greater than 98 percent accuracy in detecting Barrett’s. Our experienced team at Capital Health was the first in New Jersey to offer VLE. WATS3D (wide-area transepithelial sampling with 3D computer analysis): A brush biopsy technique that can detect Barrett’s and increase the detection of cells that are turning into cancer. Molecular/DNA analysis of Barrett’s esophagus: Tissue samples collected via endoscopy are tested for the presence of biomarkers that may indicate a higher risk of progression to cancer before the development of invasive tumors. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS): Special scopes with small ultrasound probes at the tip are inserted into the esophagus to examine nodules that may arise within Barrett’s esophagus. If the nodules contain cancer or if there are abnormal lymph nodes outside the esophagus, they can be sampled under EUS-guidance with fine needle aspiration. Bravo™ pH probe: Via endoscopy, a small capsule is temporarily attached to the wall of the esophagus to measure pH levels, record GERD symptoms, and transmit readings to a small wireless receiver you wear on your waistband.

24 hour pH testing with impedance and esophageal manometry: A thin catheter is passed through the nose into the esophagus to measure whether acid or non-acid contents from the stomach are refluxing into the esophgaus. The pattern of muscle contraction within the esophagus can also be checked for abnormalities. Stretta anti-reflux endoscopic therapy: An endoscopic alternative to medical or surgical treatment of GERD, this is a safe and effective minimally invasive endoscopic procedure that is typically performed in less than 60 minutes on an outpatient (same-day) basis. It has been shown to significantly reduce and even eliminate GERD symptoms, such as heartburn, by reducing esophageal acid exposure. Our experienced team at Capital Health was the first in New Jersey to offer Stretta. Capital Health Center for Digestive Health is advancing the level of care available to patients in the region by providing comprehensive, state-of-the art diagnostics and treatments for a wide range of medical conditions involving the entire digestive system, all in one location at Capital Health Medical Center – Hopewell.

sPorts Persistence pays off in a trip to states for South wrestler Murray By JUsTin FEil Brandon Murray won 28 matches in each of his final two seasons with the High School South wrestling team, but there’s no contest as to which was his better year. After failing to advance past districts last year, Murray capped his senior year with a run through districts, through regions and into his first trip to the boys’ state championships in Atlantic City. “For me, especially after my junior year, it was about proving to myself more than anything else,” Murray said. “After that year, there weren’t any expectations for me. I wasn’t a region qualifier. No one was looking at me to do anything special. It was proving to myself that I knew I could do it.” Murray became the third WW-P South wrestler in four years to make it to the state championships in Atlantic City, which took place from Feb. 28 to March 2. Nick Maher placed fi fth in states when Murray was a freshman and Steven O’Campo went to states last year. “Having someone like Nick freshman year on the team is really special,” Murray said. “And when you’re so young, you’re like, I want to do exactly what he did. And junior year I had Steven. It’s

special to say I’m at that level with Nick to get to states, and won the matches Maher and Steven and to be the third when they counted most. “I was thinking, that guy wants me to state qualifier from my school.” Last year, Murray accompanied not go to states,” Murray said. “He wants my career to be over. I O’Campo to states as a fan. need to go out here and The trip added motivation wrestle. That’s what I told for him to come back as myself in warm-ups—if I a qualifier. Murray promdon’t win that match, my ised his coach that he’d season is over, my high be coming back to wrestle school career is over.” there this year, and coach The ideal workout the Warren Gerstacker saw day before regions had a changed wrestler this Murray ready to face any year. situation.

It was like he turned the corner being down and ignoring it and going and peaked at the right point.

He wrestled his heart season,” Gerstacker said. “A lot of times out.” Murray’s yearlong efforts and focus people get nervous because they have paid off in a trip to states. And this year these goals.

Murray ended his season with a 7-2 Murray made it through several heart-stopping matches to finish fourth loss to Robert Bohr of West Morris at 120 pounds at the Region 5 meet just Central in the second day at states after dropping an 11-0 major decision to topseeded Anthony Clark of Delbarton in the opener. “I went out there with nothing to lose and just wrestled,” Murray said. “If anything, it’s very cool to wrestle someone of that caliber. I never wrestled anyone that good before. I always loved wrestling kids that are better than me in skill. You can let it all fly.” Finishing his senior season in Atlantic City was all that he had wanted when the year began. He wasn’t quite sure how he compared to others in his weight class at the start of the season, but he started to realize his potential as the year developed and his improved technique paid off. “In a lot of ways, he’s smooth, he’s silky when he wrestles,” Gerstacker said. “He’s not a big and strong kid. He does everything quick. What I saw change in

his development, there started to be a lot more confidence. There started to be more forward aggression and he took more shots. That confidence allowed him to turn the corner. He’s still practicing and he’s beating guys that used to beat him.” As the victories piled up again, so did his confidence. He placed third at the Mercer County Championships with a major decision over Alex Williard of Lawrenceville School to kick start his postseason run all the way to states. “It seemed a much harder goal at the start of the season than when things started to fall into place toward the end,” Murray said. He leaves another example to upcoming Pirates wrestlers of what can be achieved with hard work and total dedication. Murray had the added responsibility that came with being the lone senior for a young WW-P South team. “He was really valuable in that he’d been around and he knows the whole game and how things work and what you have to do to get better,” Gerstacker said. “It’s a young group of guys that needed a lot of encouragement. Brandon was really good for doing that and getting them organized if anything extra was being done.” Gerstacker sees how much Murray enjoys wrestling as an indication that he will do well at the next level. He will wrestle for York College next year and again follow in the footsteps of the select Pirate alumni. “I know I’m getting into a whole new different style of wrestling in college,” Murray said. “There’s definitely a learning curve. I don’t expect anything production wise. I’m just going in with a mindset to learn. Murray showed this year what he is capable of when he fixes his targets on a goal. His 28th win gave him 94 career wins, and more importantly, earned him a trip to Atlantic City to conclude his scholastic career. “I was never too concerned with my win count,” Murray said. “I always wanted to make states. I’d much rather make states than get 100 wins.”

real estate insights with donna reilly & ellen Calman

Welcome to real estate season As the weather warms up, so does the real estate market, with buyers, sellers and real estate sales professionals gearing up for the busiest time of the year. What can buyers and sellers do to ensure the greatest success in today’s real estate market? According to the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR®), both buyers and sellers count heavily on the support and professional services of their real estate representative for their transactions. In fact, despite 95 percent of buyers house-hunting online, when it came down to it, a full 87 percent had an agent actually help them in their purchase. Overall, buyers were extremely pleased with the service they received, as a full 90 percent of buyers indicated they would use their agent again or recommend their agent to others. “With inventory so low, buyers are relying on their agent’s knowledge of markets and neighborhoods to find listings, rather than relying only on online searches,” said NAR® President Elizabeth Mendenhall. “A Realtor® has years of experience, generating insight and expertise that can help buyers navigate a tight market where buyers are forced to move fast and make competitive bids in order to get their dream home.” Sellers also understand the benefits of working

Donna Reilly (left) and Ellen Calman

with a qualified real estate sales representative; a record high of 91 percent of sellers used a real estate agent to move their properties. In fact, FSBOs (For Sale By Owner transactions) accounted for only 7 percent of all sales — the lowest number recorded in NAR®’s survey taking history. Need help navigating the spring buying and selling season? Simply call Donna or Ellen today for a noobligation discussion, and let’s get started! And, remember, up to the minute West Windsor/Plainsboro real estate information is always available at ReillyandCalman.com or Facebook.com/ReillyandCalman.
