SUMMARY:Dr. Avraham Roos: The Secret Lives of Words
DESCRIPTION:The Secret Lives of Words\nPresented by Dr. Avraham Roos\n19:30 Tuesday 24 November \n\nHave you ever wondered why October is the tenth month when its name means “eight\,” how a sandwich got its name\, or what a jeep\, a tulip\, and a slogan have in common? The Secret Lives of Words takes you on an entertaining journey through the surprising origins of English vocabulary. Discover how words are borrowed from other languages\, created from names and places\, shortened\, blended\, reshaped\, and sometimes completely transformed in meaning. Behind many ordinary words lie extraordinary stories—and after this lecture\, you may never look at the English language in quite the same way again. \n\n\nDr. Avraham Roos is an experienced educator\, linguist\, and public speaker who has lectured widely to English-speaking adult audiences throughout Israel on subjects ranging from Jewish history and culture to language\, art\, and general history. Born in the Netherlands\, he made aliyah in 1991 and has since built a long career in education\, including teaching in the English Departments of several teacher-training colleges\, where he has trained future English teachers in language and methodology. Dr. Roos holds an MA from the University of Liverpool and a PhD from the University of Amsterdam\, where his research focused on the history and development of English translations of the Passover Haggadah. His lectures combine scholarly depth with accessible storytelling\, personal insight\, humor\, and a strong visual dimension\, making complex and sometimes unexpected topics engaging for a broad adult audience.\n\n\n\nMembers pre-paid NIS 40\nMembers at door and non-members NIS 60 \nPurchase tickets below\, call the box office 09-8330950 (Sunday-Thursday 8:30-12:30) or pay at the door (cash only). \nPrepaid tickets available until noon on the day of this event. \nNearby Parking: (one block north of Netanya AACI\, approach from the north on Shmuel Hanatziv to turn right into the driveway just before the traffic circle) \nUsing Waze: https://waze.com/ul/hsv8zcjvhf \nUsing Google Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/teDPagS7GRUi5VzY8

SUMMARY:YAD SARAH – Israel's Largest and Most Important Charity - Zvi Swerdlove
DESCRIPTION:YAD SARAH – Israel’s Largest and Most Important Charity\nPresented by Zvi Swerdlove\n11:00 Sunday 29 November \n \nAsk ten Israelis you know what they know about Yad Sarah. Chances are half of them will smile and tell you how some family member needed a pair of crutches or a wheelchair or a breast pump or maybe even a booster car seat for a newborn baby and was given one in a few minutes without filling out endless forms and going through long\, annoying bureaucratic rigmarole to demonstrate their need. \nIn fact\, in most cases\, all they had to do was come into the building on Ichilov Street here in Netanya and pay a small deposit which was returned to them when they brought it back. It also rents out hospital beds\, oxygen concentrators\, cranes for bedridden patients and anything else you may need to keep a family member at home rather than in a hospital or nursing home. A little-known statistic is that 50% of Israeli families have borrowed medical equipment from Yad Sarah at one time or another. \nZvi Swerdlove\, a dedicated\, long-time volunteer\, will be describing the many different services Yad Sarah offers and how it can help you. \nBorn in Boston\, he made aliyah in 1969 and\, after 5 years’ service in the IDF\, he began his professional career working as a translator. For many years\, he also ran a second-hand book store in Netanya called the Reader’s Corner. You may also have seen him perform in the Netanya AACI Drama Group or\, years ago\, in the Netanya AACI Music Theater. \nPlease come and hear Zvi speak! He is particularly interested in answering any questions you might have about Yad Sarah in general or specific medical equipment someone in your family might need. \nMembers Prepaid – NIS 25 \nNon-members and Members at the Door – NIS 35 \nPrepaid ticketing available until 08:00 the day of the event. Purchase tickets below\, call the box office 09-8330950 or pay at the door. \nNearby Parking: (one block north of Netanya AACI\, approach from the north on Shmuel Hanatziv to turn right into the driveway just before the traffic circle) \nUsing Waze: https://waze.com/ul/hsv8zcjvhf \nUsing Google Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/teDPagS7GRUi5VzY8
