November 14 - Dr. Jessica Spake
Dr. Jessica Spake recently arrived at Carnegie Science Obsevatories and was previously at Caltech. Her area of study is exoplanets - planets beyond our solar system - one of the hottest topics in astronomy today. Dr. Spake analyzes which exoplanets retain or lose their atmospheres, research that will also provide new clues in the search of life beyond Earth. Her talk will be on "The Strange Skies of Alien Worlds."
November 21 - Father Gil Martinez and Rabbi Erez Sherman
Rabbi Sherman
Rabbi Erez Sherman was ordained from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America in May 2009. He is also a graduate of Albert A. List College and Columbia University (with degrees in Music and Talmud). At Sinai Temple, Rabbi Sherman oversees the Sinai Temple Israel Center; he also founded the Center's Rabbinical School Fellowship, which trains future Rabbis. He was recently named the 5th top Visionary for Israel by the Jerusalem Post.

Paulist Fr. Gilbert Martinez is pastor of St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Community in Los Angeles. A native of El Paso, TX, Fr. Gil was reared in California. He completed a bachelor of science degree in conservation of natural resources from the University of California at Berkeley.

Club Handbook
Rotary is a leadership organization made up of local business, professional and civic leaders who meet regularly to get to know each other, form friendships and, through that, get things done in our local community.  Rotary is the world's oldest and largest service organization (founded in 1905).
