Hi Everyone! After 24 years in Israel, I still get a kick out of shopping in Israel before the Jewish holidays. So many people buying things for the Jewish New Year. In fact, last night I went shopping at Rami Levi in Mishor Adumim and on the way out I was given a free Jewish calendar for the new year. I know there are many bad things happening in the news which can be very depressing but every so often you need to look at the good things (and there are many good things) to get a better perspective on things. Speaking of positive, good things..... I created a list of 67 cool Rosh HaShana YouTube videos. There is something for everyone. The list includes: Shana tova! Ma chadash, Tapuach Im Dvash Animation Phone Atone - Presidential Candidates Atone for their Sins Happy New Year 5769 (Second Life) Shana Tova (Hebrew remix of muppets song) The Four Traditional Shofar Blasts Nasrallah's Happy New Year clip Rosh Hashanah Girl Shana Tova from Tijuana Rosh Hashana: Sticky 'n Sweet New Year Happy New Year for Jewish Mothers Head of the Year (Rosh HaShana Mix) Rosh Hashana Rap Prepare for Rosh Hashanah-Elul JewU WebYeshiva: Blowing the Shofar in Elul Rosh HaShana Foods - Sephardi style Shana Tova Song - Parpar Nechmad (with Ofra Haza) Bashana Haba'ah - Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme Bashana Haba'a in Yiddish The Alexandria Kleztet - Bashana Haba'a (from Chile) Kol Ish - BaShana HaBa'ah and many more..... The address is: http://www.jr.co.il/videos/rosh-hashana-videos.htm Enjoy! ------------------------------------------------------------- While searching Google Groups, I found several Usenet messages that I posted in 1988 and several messages in 1992 and 1993 about CJI. The Hebrew Word Processor question was posted while I worked at Intel Electronics, about four years before I went to work at Kivun that developed the Dagesh word processor (and Hebrew Windows 3.1). It is also interesting to see what jobs were available back in 1992 before the Internet took over the world. Talk about nostalgia..... See: http://www.jr.co.il/articles/jacob/jr-usenet.htm ------------------------------------------------------------- I am working on adding a big feature to one of my websites and I am also working on a new website. I hope to launch at least one during October. Next week I am gong down to Arad for Rosh Hashana. I will probably be in Ma'ale Adumim for Yom Kippur and Sukkot. Today's CJI job report is a short one. I normally would have skipped posting such a short report but there are 17 positions that could mean 17 people with new jobs. Also, I wanted to wish everyone a..... Shana Tova!! Time for the jobs..... Shabbat Shalom, Jacob ------------------------------------------------------------- The CJI report has been published on-line since June 1993.
