Extractions: By Avi Shlush, Secretary-General, World Sephardi Federation, Jerusalem The World Sephardi Federation was founded in 1925 at the international convention of Sephardi Jews held in Vienna, prior to the 14th Zionist Congress. The initiative behind its establishment came from the heads of the Sephardi and Oriental communities in Palestine, who, together with the heads of the Sephardi communities in the Balkan countries and central Europe, set up the world union of Sephardi Jews. Moshe Pichotto was chosen as the first president of the union, whose center was set in Jerusalem. In a unanimous resolution, it was declared that the establishment of this union was essential for the Zionist movement, in order to build the land with the cooperation of all the Jewish communities. In the words of the Rabbi Ben Zion Meir Chai Ouziel: "These Jews must be awakened from their slumber and be brought into the work of our rebirth. This is possible only by creating a strong world Sephardi union with a certain plan." In the 1920's and 1930's, the heads of the Federation devoted their energies to representing the Sephardi communities within the world Zionist Organization, the Jewish Agency, Keren Hayesod and leadership of the Yishuv. They dealt with matters of aliyah, absorption and settlement, but didn't succeed in one of their main targets Sephardim being accepted as

Extractions: The World Sephardi Federation was born to fulfill a just case, answer a moral need and keep alive a magnificent tradition. We all know that the state of Israel is the culmination of thousands of years dreaming and yearning. All Jews, wherever they lived, prayed that one day people of Zion, will assemble together in their homeland in Eretz Israel. The Zionist revolution pushed the Jewish fervour to its limits. The idea of gathering the dispersed Jews in one homeland seemed to many, Jews and Gentiles alike, as an hallucination if not a delusion of grandeur. What seemed even to Theodore Herzl, the founder of Zionism, as an audacious adventure, succeeded in revolutionising the Jewish spirit which culminated in the establishment of the State of Israel. The truth has to be said. The embryonic Zionist Movement had been created by European Jews in order to bring to an end, endless persecutions and virulent anti-Semitism which had been ubiquitous since the end of the 19th century. As years went by and as the Zionist Movement accumulated popularity, Sephardi Jews joined in. They, too, prayed for Zion and yearned for the Messiah. Jewish communities throughout the Arab countries were caught in frenzy by the call to gather in Eretz Israel. Unlike their brethren in European countries, Sephardi Jews led a peaceful coexistence with their Arab neighbors. They enjoyed relative prosperity and freedom of practicizing their faith. Nevertheless, they had been living like in a corridor, waiting and praying for the day they will gather in one Jewish nation, in the promised land.

Extractions: 'Sephardi' (Hebrew for Spain) refers to the Jews who lived and flourished in the Iberian peninsula for many centuries, until they were expelled along with the Muslims, in 1492. Sephardi Jews took their language and musical traditions with them in to exile and absorbed other traditions from North Africa, the Eastern Mediterranean and countries in the Middle East where they settled. Many of the standard hymns in the Hebrew liturgy were composed by great Sephardic poets during the 'Golden Age' in mediaeval Spain. The lingua franca of Sephardi Jews was Ladino (or Judeo-Spanish) which was based on mediaeval Castilian and written in Hebrew script. The Ladino ballad repertoire was a very important song tradition transmitted through the female line. last modified: 20 April 2004 Jewish Music Performances Jewish Music Courses Sephardi Music Events The Jewish Music Institute is an independent Arts organisation based at SOAS, University of London.

Extractions: The Ashkenazi, Sephardi and Oriental Israel Table of Contents Whereas the Ashkenazi-Sephardi division is a very old one, the Ashkenazi-Oriental division is new to Israel. The term "Oriental" refers specifically to Israelis of African or Asian origin. This geographical distinction has developed over the years into a euphemism for talking about the poor, underprivileged, or educationally disadvantaged (those "in need of fostering," in the Hebrew phrase). Some social scientists as well as some Sephardi activists have seen a sort of self-fulfilling prophecy in this classification. Many Sephardim will not refer to themselves as Orientals.

Extractions: Glycogen Storage Disease, Type III (Cori's Disease or Forbes disease) Glycogen is one of the primary fuel reserves for the body's energy needs. Stores of hepatic glycogen serve as a reserve for blood glucose during times of fasting and muscle glycogen serves as a reserve for substrates needed for ATP production during exercise. In glycogen storage disease, type III (GSD III), liver and/or muscle are unable to completely break down the stored glycogen to glucose, which is needed for energy production. Individuals with GSD III may develop hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) with fasting, and will typically have enlargement of the liver because of glycogen accumulation there. In addition, some individuals have muscle weakness affecting the skeletal and/or cardiac muscle. This is the result of deficiency of the debrancher enzyme involved in glycogen metabolism in liver and muscle. Disease frequency GSD III occurs in 1 in 5400 North-African Jews and in 1 in 200,000 in the general population. Carrier frequency: Estimated to be 1 in 35 in North African Jews.

Extractions: This village, now about 4 km. South of Amsterdam is situated at the spot where the stream called Bullewijk runs into the river Amstel. Since 1614 it is the cemetery of the Portugees-Israelietische Gemeente of Amsterdam, the Sephardim who since their first settling in the low countries after the expulsion fom Spain and Portugal, finally were able to buy land nearer to Amsterdam, the largest community in the Netherlands. The Municipality of the city had not and still did not at that time, allow them to buy land within the city boundaries. Up to this time they had to bury their dead in Groet near Alkmaar. It is the burialplace of Menasseh ben Israel and the father of Baruch de Spinosa amongst many other wellknown Sephardim. Of great and peculiar interest are the sculptured gravestones, which strictly speaking are not allowed and could be considered an anomaly in this orthodox cemetery. With their background and in view of the countries where the Dutch Sephardi had lived, the decorations of the stones with people and angels become understandable.
