This twist on Hatikvah is sure to get you into the mood for tonight’s celebration at Park Synagogue (Main). Whether you are at the Blue & White Party, mingling everywhere or showing up just for Idan Raichel’s concert, it will be the […]
Read More“The task is huge, but the risk of doing nothing is far too great. We are all responsible for the actions of the few, more so when we do nothing in the face of those actions. The Jewish college students who say nothing in the face of anti-Israel, anti-Semitic rhetoric are my responsibility.” (Congrats to OU students!) “The rising rates of intermarriage and Jewish children growing up with no sense of their history or who they are is my responsibility. The doors of more and more JCCs, Jewish schools and synagogues closing is my responsibility.” Devra Jaffe-Berkowitz hits the nail on the head.
Take action. If you have single Jewish friends, family or acquaintances in the Cleveland area. Direct them to Cleveland Yentas: www.CLEyentas.com.

As reported by ABC News and later on XM, here are Patti Stangers’s Extra Holiday Dating Tips
(All sound advice):

- The holidays aren’t an excuse to break my two-drink maximum rule. Eggnog counts!
- Don’t rush into meeting the family just because it’s around the holidays. You don’t want to ruin a good thing by moving the relationship too fast.
- Packs don’t attract. Be bold and go out by yourself even if it’s to a New Year’s Eve party. You may even get a kiss at midnight!
- Don’t talk about your ex. It doesn’t make your date feel special, plus no man likes to compete with a stranger.
- Don’t talk about your online dating war stories as it neutralizes the sex appeal. No one wants to date a complainer.
- Don’t talk too much on the date (TMI). Let your partner get in a word as Chatty Cathy never gets the guy.
- Don’t brag about your resume. Resumes are for work, not your love life.
- Don’t ask 21 questions. Dating is not the Spanish Inquisition — it is best to ping pong the questions back and forth, which ignites stimulating conversation.
