The Jewish Channel

As reported in The New York Times, Cablevision is now offering "The Jewish Channel" as a premium
station. Eli Singer, Chief Executive, reports that the channel offers a variety of programs from foreign and independent films to a Rabbi's Roundtable. The Rabbi's Roundtable is a monthly program featuring a Conservative, Reform, and Orthodox rabbi debating a number of controversial issues.

Additional original programming includes "Inside the Issues" a monthly Charlie Rose-style show produced in partnership with the Jewish Daily Forward. Regular programming categories include "History and Remembrance." "Israel" and "American Jewry." The channel recently ran a very successful Woody Allen Film Festival and the movie "Exodus."

There are approximately 20,000 subscribers, mostly from the New York area. The program has been on the air since September. It cost $5.00 per month. For information call your local Cablevision office.

Remember Tifereth Israel in your will


You can benefit many others when you have a will. While this is the common way to distribute an estate, it also is a wonderful way to make thoughtful gifts.

After you have provided for your family, there are a variety of ways to benefit charitable interests, including your synagogue. Your attorney can add a simple amendment which designates a specific amount, or a percentage of assets to go to your charity after providing for your main beneficiaries.

This is a simple, inexpensive way to adjust your planned giving wishes. Each month we will explore other ways to consider helping the next generation continue Congregation Tifereth Israel.
