That means of course getting more people to become aware of the need to go veggie. And what about the veggies who are out there already? Well I want to tell you a personal story about that. My late father was a veggie when he was younger, but he married a carnivore. As a result I was raised as a carnivore, though I can recall my late father eating vegetable plates at diners we would go to so he could get them and eating vegetarian Chinese food at Chinese restuarants we would go to so he could get that food. At long last he finally gave up and ended his vegetarianism. Though he live to what some consider to be " a ripe old age " I am convinced that had he remained a veggie he would still be alive. He has been dead for some years now. What all of that means of course is that we need to make sure that veggies marry veggies and that they raise their children as veggies. So the need for single veggie organizations is enormous. NJSingleVegetarians/ Subscribe: NJSingleVegetarians- It was certainly good fortune that I became a veggie myself quite awhile ago but many children of these so-called " veg/carnivore " or " mixed-marriages " are not quite so lucky and end up as non- veggies. I am also of course promoting the veggie way of life to others who are not yet veggies. One key group to promote the veggie way of life to is science fiction fans. Why science fiction fans? Well because some science fiction fans actually become science fiction writers. Why science fiction writers then? Well because the way of life that we take for granted here in the so-called " first world " , of industrialized nations is a way of life that not so long ago was considered to be science fiction. It was a science fiction writer: Arthur C. Clarke, who came up with the idea of communications satellites as a science fiction idea. Well they are fiction no more. Nor are communications devices that do not require wires. Remember the " communicators " on StarTrek? Chances are you have a cell phone in your pocket or in your car, or if you don't you know more than one person who does. Once again, fiction no more. Fact. The science fiction fan of today is the science fiction writer of tomorrow. The science fiction story or idea of today is the fact of tomorrow, just as yesterday's science fiction stories and ideas are the facts of today. Another place I am helping to promote the veggie way of life is in the Jewish community. I happen to be Jewish and would want nothing but the best way of life there is for my fellow Jews. Eating animals is not only not good for the animals who are murdered for food, it is not good for the humans who eat them. Being veggie is also very much in the interests of the Jewish community around the world. Producing a pound of steak " protein " on the plate requires up to 21 pounds of so-called " feed " protein from things like the 42% of American wheat production, the 86% of American corn, oats and barley production, the 90% of non-exported soybean production, that goes into the creation of that pound of steak " protein " on the plate of the American animal eater. Producing all of that so-called " feed " requires a lot of energy. More energy is used as petro-chemical based fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides, etc. as well as in the transportation of that so-called " feed " , and of the animals themselves, in the disposal of their wastes, in the movement of water to irrigate those crops and to " water " those animals. Many of the energy sources involved are nations around the world that supply arms to terrorists who slaughter Jews in Israel and around the world, as well as other innocents, such as those who were slaughtered on September 11th. 2001. So I am promoting Jewish singles events at veggie establishments to bring the fact of being able to have a veggie meal as a reality to my fellow Jews. I do so periodically at Veggie Heaven, a Kosher Vegan Chinese Restaurant with several locations here in New Jersey. I hope that similar restaurants exist elsewhere that may serve as event locations. Failing that I hope that vegan house parties can be arranged everywhere. If you are Jewish yourself I hope that you will do the same wherever you may be. If you are able to come to some of these events I hope that you will do so. If you live to far away to get to them by all means create them. Create them for your fellow Jews if you are Jewish. Create them for your fellow veggies if you are veggie. Create them for science fiction fans if you want to see science fiction fans become veggie and science fiction ideas created by veggie science fiction writers, all of whom start off as science fiction fans creating the new facts of life on earth as ones which will make it possible for a veggie world to in fact come into being.

We cannot ignore the real threat to Jewish survival posed by intermarriage, which usually results in the children of such marriages being raised as non-Jews. Another real threat to Jewish survival in these times is the fact that in these times for one reason or another some people are no longer heterosexual. Any Jew who is no longer heterosexual is of course much less likely to marry a Jew of the opposite sex and to have children with that person. We need every single Jew who can do so to marry another single Jew and to have children as a result of those marriages who will be raised as Jews. It is with great joy that we can report that there are resources available to deal with the situation some Jews who are no longer heterosexual find themselves in. One such resource is http://jonahweb.org/ " JONAH is a non-profit international organization dedicated to educating the world-wide Jewish community about the prevention, intervention, and healing of the underlying issues causing same-sex attractions. If you are confused by same-sex attractions or know someone who is and desire help, please contact us for resources and professional confidential assistance. click on http://www.jonahweb.org/cms/e/index.php?option=com_contact & Itemid=3 JONAH info info AT jonahweb.org P.O.

Although it is possible to enter the mall from the Franklin Turnpike, we recommend the Route 17 approach. Borders abuts Route 17 South. FROM ROUTE 17 SOUTHBOUND: The entrance to the Interstate Shopping Center is from Route 17 South, shortly past the Spring Street Exit and just before the Franklin Turnpike overpass. It is about three miles south of the junction of Routes 17 and 287, just past the Best Western and the Howard Johnson. FROM ROUTE 17 NORTHBOUND: Travel north on Route 17 and make a U-Turn at the Spring Street Exit in Ramsey, New Jersey. This is about ½ mile past the Franklin Turnpike Exit and about 3-1/2 miles past the Allendale Road Exit most of you take to our normal meeting site in Upper Saddle River. Follow directions from Route 17 Southbound. FROM THE GARDEN STATE PARKWAY NORTHBOUND: Take Exit 163 which is about 2-3/4 miles after the toll plaza. This is a left lane exit and puts you onto Route 17 North. Follow directions for northbound 17 above. You will be on Route 17 for a little more than 10-1/4 miles before you hit the Spring Street exit. FROM ROUTE 287 IN NEW YORK: Follow the signs for Route 17 South, Mahwah, New Jersey. This is a left lane exit, so be sure to get into one of the two leftmost lanes. Follow the directions from Route 17 Southbound. FROM ROUTE 287 IN NEW JERSEY: This is an awkward interchange. Follow the signs for Route 17 South and Mahwah, New Jersey. The exit will put you onto a long ramp that makes a " U " and deposits you on 287 heading the opposite way. Get into the left hand lanes and follow the signs for Route 17 South. Follow the directions listed above for Route 17 Southbound.

There are special circumstances regarding each of these meetings. June 9, 2007 ................This meeting will be held at Borders Books in the Interstate Shopping Mall on Route 17 South in Ramsey, New Jersey. The Ice Nine discussion will be held at 7:00 PM. The main event will begin at 8:00 PM. Due to store policies, we will collect no dues at the meeting, however anyone who would pay dues at a regular meeting is responsible for remitting them at the next meeting they attend. July 14, 2007 ................This meeting will be held at Bennett Books in Wyckoff, New Jersey. NOTE THAT THIS MEETING WILL BE HELD EARLIER IN THE DAY! The Association will have the use of the store from 4:00 PM until 8:00 PM. The Ice Nine discussion will be held at 4:00 PM. The general meeting will begin at 5:00 PM. Standard (and owed) dues will be collected. ................Bennett Books normally closes at 6:00 PM on Saturdays. Staying open until 10:00 PM for our group proved too much a strain on John and Betty Bennett, which is why we shifted last year's meetings to their late night, Friday. We believe that starting a couple of hours earlier than usual on a Saturday works better for most people than moving to an entirely different night.

You do not have to be single to join : OperationCSPAN/ Post message: OperationCSPAN Subscribe: OperationCSPAN- Help to counter anti-Israel, anti-Semitic callers to CSPAN programs such as Washington Journal, by making your own pro- Israel, pro-Jewish, pro-Zionist, calls to those same CSPAN programs. Please also do your part to help Israel by joining pro-Israel groups both on line and in real life. You can read more about topics and people in the news such as Jimmy Carter and James Baker and Coca Cola etc. by doing searches in the message archives of including those listed below. Some pro-Israel on line groups are listed below: IsraelAndAmericaTogetherForVictory/ Post message: IsraelAndAmericaTogetherForVictory Subscribe: IsraelAndAmericaTogetherForVictory- IsraelMustLive/ Post message: IsraelMustLive Subscribe: IsraelMustLive- IsraelNowAndForever / Post message: IsraelNowAndForever Subscribe: IsraelNowAndForever- IsraelTheBestFriendAmericaHas/ Post message: IsraelTheBestFriendAmericaHas Subscribe: IsraelTheBestFriendAmericaHas- OperationCSPAN/ Post message: OperationCSPAN Subscribe: OperationCSPAN- c-span, also known as C-SPAN provides much valuable information. However, we are distressed that programs like Washington Journal on c-span seem to provide a forum for anti-Semites and enemies of Israel and the Jewish people in general who seem to not only call into that t.v. show, but get through, and get on the air, where they are seldom interupted or cut off by the show's moderators. We feel that a 2 minute delay could enable the show's moderators to screen out the anti-Semites and enemies of Israel and the Jewish people, however no such 2 minute delay seems to be in place. Moreover the moderators of that show and others do not seem to be of a mind to cut off the anti- Semites and other enemies of Israel and the Jewish people in general who regularly call into that show and others on c-span. We have therefore created this in the hopes that members of the group will become regular viewers of c-span and will call in regularly to Washington Journal and other c-span call in t.v. shows, to support Israel and the Jewish people and to counter the anti-Semites and other enemies of Israel and the Jewish people whose calls are regularly aired on c-span. We also hope that members of our will contact their U.S. Senators and members of Congress and President Bush at http://www.whitehouse.gov to see what can be done about the situation at c-span.

There are many avenues for Jewish activism. Support of Israel, Support of the Jewish people, Opposition to anti-Semitism, to name a few. We believe that it is vital for Jewish survival that single Jews meet other single Jews, marry one another, and raise their children as Jews. Because there is a hole in our calendar from Friday night to Saturday night during which many single Jews go to non-Jewish singles events, meet non-Jews, marry non-Jews, and have children from those marriages who are not raised as Jews, the Jewish people faces a very severe problem. We urge everyone who reads this to contact his or her Rabbi and demand that his or her Rabbi hold regular Jewish singles Onegs on Friday nights. We feel that it is vitally important that single Jews go to Jewish singles events and meet other Jewish singles at those events. If you know anyone who happens to be Jewish who is hosting a singles event please ask him or her to consider hosting events just for Jewish singles. We also offer the opportunity at our on line Jewish singles groups to post your Jewish singles introductions and to respond to other Jewish singles introductions. Please do so regularly. Please state that you are Jewish, single and over 21 in your introductions at our on line Jewish singles groups. Please state that you are Jewish, Single, 21 or over, when you apply to join the Jewish Singles at the websites the urls below will take you to JewishSinglesOfNJ/ JewishSinglesinNJforIsrael/ JewishSinglesFromEverywhere/ Do you have a Jewish single friend that you have not yet met in person and may have been in touch with via email or telephone or otherwise Why not invite that Jewish single friend to meet you at one of the many Jewish singles events listed in our posts Be sure to send your photo to your Jewish single friend, and to ask your Jewish single friend to send a photo to you. That way you can recognize one another when you meet at a Jewish singles event. Please state that you are Jewish, Single, 21 or over, when you apply to join the Jewish Singles at the websites the urls below will take you to JewishSinglesOfNJ/ JewishSinglesinNJforIsrael/ JewishSinglesFromEverywhere/ A free fantastic Jewish singles resource can be found at the url below http://www.thejewishpeople.org/ You may post your own introductions there, with our without photos of yourself and may also search for other Jewish singles there by state, gender, age range, etc. Everything there is free.
