[ha-Safran]: Re: contact info. and current status of "Israel Bulletin"
Dear Safranim and Safraniyot, I am trying to find out the current status of a publication that comes out of England called, "Israel Bulletin." If anyone has an email contact, I would greatly appreciate it if you would please pass along that information to me, as I am trying to contact the publisher and currently only have a snail mail address. Also, would anyone happen to know what the current status of this publication is? Specifically, is this still being published--and if so--what is the latest volume/issue number? Thank you, as always!

[ha-Safran]: Israel HighWay Launch: September 9th
Shalom Safranim, I thought some of you might be interested in this "e-zine" on Israel. Shana tova. Shmuel Ben-Gad, Gelman Library, George Washington University. From: Deborah Laufer Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2004 11:13 PM Subject: [v'dibarta] Israel HighWay Launch: September 9th To: High School Principals Dear Chaverim, All of us are concerned that our students' knowledge of modern Israel and the Arab-Israeli conflict is not what it should be. As a member of the Advisory Board of the Israel HighWay, a new electronic publication on Israel for high school students, I am pleased to notify you of its launch this Thursday (please see below). Please take a look at this new "e-zine." A lot of effort has gone into it, and we hope you will like it. Please bring it to the attention of the students in your schools and have them subscribe (free!) to it. Kol tuv, Jerry Rabbi Jeremiah Unterman, Ph.D. Association of Modern Orthodox Day Schools and Yeshiva High Schools MSDCS-RIETS, Yeshiva University 500 W. 185th Street, Suite 413 New York, NY 10033 212-960-5260 fax: 212-960-5228 Israel HighWay Launch Date: Thursday, September 9th The Conference of Presidents will be launching its new email publication, the Israel HighWay, on Thursday, September 9, 2004. The Israel HighWay is a weekly email publication that will reach out to high-school-age youth with an engaging, informative and exciting format. Following the success of the Daily Alert (www.dailyalert.org ) and Israel Campus Beat (www.israelcampusbeat.org ), we recognized a need for a publication for students at the high school level. Students, even those in Jewish day schools, were found not to know the history or contemporary situation in Israel. It is often too late to wait until they get to campus to educate them. As a result, consultations were held with a wide variety of educators, various teen groups, individual schools and students. All agreed that this is a vital undertaking for a much-neglected yet important sector of our community. In addition, the discussion with the Jewish Community Center Association (JCCA) led to a request that the publication be continued during the summer months so it could be used by day and overnight camps. The Israel HighWay is sponsored by a grant from the Avi Chai Foundation. Our goal is to educate students and to prepare them for the challenges they will likely face on campus. Some of the features of the Israel HighWay include an in-depth examination of an issue in each edition, a project of the month, interactive components, articles by American and Israeli students describing activities in their schools relevant to Israel as well as their experiences on Israel programs, and sections on Jewish or Israeli sports, music, arts and technology. We want to impress upon Israel HighWay readers the importance of Israel on many levels, and to instill in them a love for Israel and pride in its accomplishments over the years. In addition to exploring the context of today's important issues, we will highlight Israel's many and diverse contributions to society. Based on the feedback of our Advisory Board and Student Advisory Committee we have gone through several drafts and designs, making adjustments and improvements with each issue. A current sample issue is located at www.conferenceofpresidents.org/highway.html . In conjunction with the Israel HighWay, we will establish a website together with the Israel Advocacy High School Coalition which will serve as a repository of all resources, including materials, publications and programmatic information for high school students, information on Israel programs, as well as sample curricula that teachers can adapt for their use. An important feature will be a discussion guide related to the Israel HighWay that can be used by teachers or parents to engage students in meaningful discussion. The Israel HighWay will be launched on Thursday, September 9, 2004. It will be sent out via email on Thursday mornings so that schools and organizations can forward it to their membership either by email or fax over the course of the day. When a holiday begins on a Wednesday or Thursday, we will send out the Israel HighWay on Tuesday mornings. We are now preparing our initial email distribution list. To ensure that your membership receives the Israel HighWay, please send all email addresses to us immediately. Either send us the individual addresses of your members, or send us one designated recipient who will then forward the Israel HighWay to your internal lists. Once launched, the Israel HighWay will have a subscription management page so that individuals can subscribe directly or update their email information. Please submit all email addresses to receive the Israel HighWay to Malky Tannenbaum at [EMAIL PROTECTED] . If you have any questions, pleas
Re: [ha-Safran]: No clown simpler than a single hair
If you search for "Stevens" and "No crown is simpler than the simple hair" you will find the below. Is this what you're looking for? >From this site: http://xroads.virginia.edu/~HYPER2/ModPtryAnthol/stevens.html containing this header: - Selected Poems Stevens, Wallace By the University of Virginia American Studies Program 2003-2004.

Charlottesville, Va. Freely available for non-commercial use provided that this header is included in its entirety with any copy distributed - I have copied the following poem: - To the One of Fictive Music Sister and mother and diviner love, And of the sisterhood of the living dead Most near, most clear, and of the clearest bloom, And of the fragrant mothers the most dear And queen, and of diviner love the day And flame and summer and sweet fire, no thread Of cloudy silver sprinkles in your gown Its venom of renown, and on your head No crown is simpler than the simple hair. Now, of the music summoned by the birth That separates us from the wind and sea, Yet leaves us in them, until earth becomes, By being so much of the things we are, Gross effigy and simulacrum, none Gives motion to perfection more serene Than yours, out of our own imperfections wrought, Most rare, or ever of more kindred air In the laborious weaving that you wear. For so retentive of themselves are men That music is intensest which proclaims The near, the clear, and vaunts the clearest bloom, And of all the vigils musing the obscure, That apprehends the most which sees and names, As in your name, an image that is sure, Among the arrant spices of the sun, O bough and bush and scented vine, in whom We give ourselves our likest issuance. Yet not too like, yet not so like to be Too near, too clear, saving a little to endow Our feigning with the strange unlike, whence springs The difference that heavenly pity brings. For this, musician, in your girdle fixed Bear other perfumes. On your pale head wear A band entwining, set with fatal stones. Unreal, give back to us what once you gave: The imagination that we spurned and crave.
