RECEIVING AND GIVING LOVE
TO THE WATER THAT CARRIES US
This is a day to receive and give love
to water,
to the oceans, to be kind
to the sea.
To feel safety
as if we are each a baby Moses
innocent, in a basket, in the arms
of safety, floating to shore,
where we will be found,
safe, suckled by Mother's love.
Now is the moment
to return to natural rhythm.
as knowing gentle water carries us.
Now is the time to receive messages
of hope, messages as if coming back to us
from the sea in once discarded
plastic bottles,
to caste away to the sea
not only things we no longer want,
but give back to the sea
a messages of hope,
saying that we know we are
each here to remake a new kind of world.
Now is the time
through doing simple things,
to plant a few new seeds
in the world.

This is one of the Eco-Usable Bottles that
Marc Wollman sent me as samples of the kind
of branding they can do for groups.
I have about six of these that are samples
of the work they can do. Some of these
are going to become Art Objects, painted over
by kids that will be props in
a new Rock Opera I am beginning to record
called Beet Keepers, Return!

HERE ARE MESSAGES OF HOPE
Keep the Beet Media Star,
The World's First Talking Beet Plant,
noted and acclaimed columnist
is Space of Love Magazine,
recently sailed out to the Great Pacific Patch
Gyre and filled plastic bottles with Messages
of Hope that are now coming back gently
to shore everywhere. These messages of
Hope are the keys to restoring our natural
rhythms, to being once again Beet Keepers
in this day of Beet Keepers, Return!
MESSAGES OF HOPE IN A BOTTLE
RISING ABOVE PLASTIC?
B'nai Horin, the community where I
pray each on the High Holidays,
offers single use plastic bottles
to those who come to pray.
Now is a time for all synagogues
everywhere to increase our
natural rhythm, and see ourselves
individually as beat keepers
of a more natural rhythm.
Beet Keepers, Return!

RIna, watch this please to get the idea
of what is going on...
WHAT IS THE GREAT PACIFIC GARBAGE PATCH GYRE?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Pacific_Garbage_Patch
The Great Pacific Garbage Patch, also described as the Pacific Trash Vortex, is a gyre of marine litter in the central North Pacific Ocean located roughly between 135° to 155°W and 35° to 42°N.[1] The patch extends over a very wide area, with estimates ranging from an area the size of the state of Texas to one larger than the continental United States; however, the exact size is unknown.[2] This can be attributed to the fact that there is no specific standard for determining the boundary between the “normal” and “elevated” levels of pollutants and what constitutes being part of the patch. The size is determined by a higher-than normal degree of concentration of pelagic debris in the water. Recent data collected from Pacific albatross populations suggest there may be two distinct zones of concentrated debris in the Pacific.[3]
The Patch is characterized by exceptionally high conce
Effect on wildlife
The remains of a Laysan Albatross chick which was fed plastic by its parents resulting in death
Some of these long-lasting plastics end up in the stomachs of marine birds and animals, and their young,[7] including sea turtles, and the Black-footed Albatross.[25] Besides the particles' danger to wildlife, the floating debris can absorb organic pollutants from seawater, including PCBs, DDT, and PAHs.[26] Aside from toxic effects,[27] when ingested, some of these are mistaken by the endocrine system as estradiol, causing hormone disruption in the affected animal.[25] These toxin-containing plastic pieces are also eaten by jellyfish, which are then eaten by larger fish. Many of these fish are then consumed by humans, resulting in their ingestion of toxic chemicals.[28] Marine plastics also facilitate the spread of invasive species that attach to floating plastic in one region and drift long distances to colonize other ecosystems.[17]
Research has shown that this plastic marine debris affects at least 267 species worldwide and a few of the 267 species reside in the North Pacific Gyre.[29]

PLASTIKI ISSUES
http://www.theplastiki.com/plasticsissues/
I will ask the kids to paint or decorate some
of these stainless steel bottles as a statement of receiving love
and giving back love to the oceans.
We will reclaim single use plastic bottles as well,
decorate them, and put inside messages of Hope
that have been written and given to us
by a magical character named Keep The Beet Media
Star, The World's First Talking Beet Plant.
In her recent travels In a fantasy Rock Opera
now being recorded, Keep the Beet goes out to sea
and visits the Great Pacific Gyre. She gathers us
discards and fills them with Soul Inspired Messages
of Hope that they might sail back to us.

The ocean is asking
that we might end the use of
styrofoam, and poor plastic use;
The land is asking that we
restore and recognize the power in
a simple seed to plant a new world.
Today, we are asked to restore food safety
be eating sanely; to embrace personally
the lives of our remaining local farmers.
Together we foster dreams

PAINT AN ECO USABLE BOTTLE
Joey Mendelsohn and Marc Wollman
of EcoUsable Stainless Steel BPA Bottles
want to help the B'nai Horin Community
transition from using plastic bottles
at their services.
These plastic bottles are not the best for
having a Happy New Year.
They contain important things like
BPA, a substance that is now too good
for having a Happy New Year.
Plastic bottles are also not too good
for the fishes in the ocean. Too many people
have a habit of still imagining, ever after
Columbus told of that the world is round,
of going to the edge of their world
and tossing out what they imagine is trash.
A lot of trash goes into the ocean.
There is even a place in the ocean now
the size of Texas, a big state, where
all the discarded waste has gathered.
IT is called the Great Pacific Gyre.
Guess what happens in our world world?
The little ocean life called Plankton,
that make our oxygen cannot breathe anymore.
They are caughing.
Then, there is another problem.
Stryrofoam that we get when we buy Take Out
gets into the ocean too!
It breaks down into little pieces called nurdles.
Then birds and fish thing the nurdles are food,
but and they get really hurt.
What what happens next?
Poisons collect around the plastic has it bakes in the
hot sun where it releases poisons.
Sometimes fish eat the small bits and pieces.
Then fishermen catch the fish, and mothers and fathers
bring the fish home. Guess What?
You end up eating the fish!
Is that any way to Have a Happy New Year?
Joey and Marc want to know?
KID ACTIVITY #2
Be BIOSMART!!!
Make a new crown hat to show love for you Mother or
and make a new crown Yamulka for your Father.
What it is to be BioSmart?
Anthony Russo is a friend of Leslie, Your Enchanted Gardener.
Anthony is also a friend of Keep The Beet Media Star,
The World's First Talking Beet Plant.
Another is a Beet Keeper and loves to garden.
He loves children and often helps different college projects
by donating his Sustainable Packaging and 100% Natural Service
Ware made of Sugar Cane Bagasse.
Bagasse is was often a throwaway product in many parts of the world
where sugar cane was raised. It was often burned, causing
pollution.
Anthony now helps many small farmers in Asia feed their
families. He turns the sugar cane thow away Bagasse into beautifully
designed BioSmart containers that are becoming very popular
where ever Styrofoam containers used to be sold for Take Out.
Leslie often uses this containers to start Beet Seeds,
and plant beet roots. The Beet Keepers are exploring other
seeds that will grow in these containers.
The containers are compost friendly. That means they do not
have to go in land fills. They can be fed to worms, or recycled.
KID ACTIVITY #3
GIVING GRATITUDE TO THE TREES
AT THE TEMPLE OF THE BOOK.
We are going to decorate some of the pots
that are a gift to help us all be more Bio Smart.
Bio means life. Smart, you know what that is.
Part of being smart about life comes when
we take time to show gratitude.
It is a lovely gesture to thank the trees around
the Temple of the book, the lovely synagogue
where we have our yearly services.
There are not too many communities who are
invited to use this facility.
There was a fire
here years ago and many trees burned.
Some times things like fires happen to us too.
It is good to remember that trees grow back.
It is a testament to life,
to remember that sometimes
trees burn down and then come back.
YOM KIPPUR ROCK OPERA
BEET KEEPERS, RETURN!
Being BioSmart wins the hearts
of the Plastic Zombies!!!!
http://curezone.com/blogs/fm.asp?i=1678417
This year, the kids, performers,
and parents are going to be invited to
perform a little skit at our Closing Neilah Service
at the outdoor Ampitheatre of the Temple of the Book.
There will be a simple script.
Some of the Story is told
here by Keep The Beet.
TASLICH RITUAL
On the second day of Rosh Hashanah,
many Jewish people go to the Ocean
or moving bodies of water to caste away
feelings of being "off the mark." Some
call being off the mark a Sin.
This year Keep The Beet is making up
Messages of Hope that our children will
have an opportunity to draw and paint on
BioSmart Containers and EcoUsable bottles.
Photos of these will appear on Leslie's Plant Your Dream
Blog.
Photos he will take will also be on his popular Blog
that is has around 2000 page views numbers of days
and more than 2 million page views in all.
The B'nai Horin Community and friends are
invited to a free Tashlich service each year
at Will Rogers Beach.
However, on the first day of Rosh Hashanah this year,
we are going to have another Ritual that has never been
done before here.
Here is the story:
Keep The Beet Media Star,
The World's First Talking Beet Plant
went out to the Great Garbage Patch.
She placed Messages of hope in plastic bottles.
Some of this discards, rather than symbolically
coming back to haunt us in helping to hurt our ocean
health, came back to us in plastic bottles with
Keep The Beet's Messages of hope.
We are going to create an altar of where some
plastic bottles that we use this year for drinking
have some messages of hope for the New Year,
words Messages from the Beet Keepers.
PROP
The Kids will also make one basket full of these
bottles and put some of the messages in them.
This basket will be in our Skit that we will use
at Neilah:
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE MESSAGE OF HOPE?
1.
The Earth and the Soul are Soilmates.
2.
Return Again! Return Again!
Return to the Land Of Your Soul.
3.
The Land of Milk and Honey
is The Enchanted Garden.
4.
More?
Messages of Hope from our children
of Freedom who will inherit our earth!
