Hi Everyone! 25 years ago (August 30, 1984) I made aliyah to Israel. It was the best decision of my life and I highly recommend it. Over the past 25 years many historical events have taken place in Israel. I made a list of the events that left an impression on me and I posted them at: http://www.jr.co.il/aliyah/jr-events.htm ------------------------------------------------------------- There are now over 400 members of the CJI Facebook Page. I posted several interesting articles to the page at: http://www.facebook.com/cjicoil If you see an interesting article about the Israeli IT field, please send me a link. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome Home to the New Olim! On Tuesday morning, September 8, 2009, I was at Ben-Gurion airport to greet the new olim that made aliyah from North America to Israel. There were 204 olim on the flight including 81 singles. I took 307 photos of the exciting event and posted them online at: http://www.jr.co.il/pictures/israel/history/2009/a535.htm During the welcoming ceremony there was an unexpected marriage proposal. See photos 7192-7201 The 307 photos have, also, been uploaded to Facebook for name tagging. There are two sets of photos and you can access the albums via: http://www.facebook.com/jacobrichman?v=photos If you have a Facebook account, and you are in the photos, or see someone you know, please feel free to name tag the photos. May the aliyah from all over of the world grow and bring more Jews back to their homeland, Eretz Yisrael. ------------------------------------------------------------- Here are a few announcements I made over the past 10 days: There are now 86 Cool Rosh Hashana video links at: http://www.jr.co.il/videos/rosh-hashana-videos.htm Feedback and additions are weclome. ------------------------------------------------------------- This week I posted an interesting article about the discovery of coins from the time of Bar Kochba. You can see the article and photos at: http://bit.ly/bar-kochba ------------------------------------------------------------- Photos of the Mevaseret Adumim (E1) Groundbreaking Ceremony http://www.jr.co.il/ma/pic/2009/ma396.htm ------------------------------------------------------------- If you went to the Tel-Aviv job fair on September 8, please let me know how it was. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------- This Sunday, I will be giving a presentation about Facebook at the International Jewish Bloggers Convention in Jerusalem. http://jbloggers.org/ I will (B"H) post the presentation on my website by Sunday night. I will announce the upload on my blog, Twitter and Facebook accounts. Today's job report is a very small one. As I said in the previsou report, I think that things will begin to pick up after the chagim. It is early Friday morning (4:15am). I need to get some sleep and get to the barbershop around lunch time so..... Time for the jobs....
