how to relocate to Israel – if you have an Israeli partner

step by step process for citizenship in israel | Relocation to Israel

A Ukrainian, non-jewish RoR devloper asked on israel.rb (the Israeli Ruby on Rails user group), how he could get a job in Israel (thread).
Somebody pointed him there to the above web page. Actually it sounded there, like there is no such restriction as "you do have an Israeli partner and …" – but there is. Maybe I would have to re-activate my Ex-GF in such a case ;-)

When I applied for an SAP R&D job in Israel a couple of years ago, I rather ran into a wall then. Well, yes, I have to admit: I don't have an Israeli or jewish partner, and I am a little hopeless proving the relevance of my grand-grandfather by the surname of Wassermann.

My comment on israel.rb on 2012-11-08 got removed the same day.

abortion politics arrive in Israel - JTA - Jewish Ideas Daily

Abortion Politics Arrive in Israel - JTA - Jewish Ideas Daily

Update 2012-08-15
I received a hint with a link to a rather informative article by Rabbi Yaacov Haber at TorahLab.org/lifecycle/article/abortion . (Many thanks for that!!!) That article makes it very clear, that abortion is not a non-issue in Judaism resp. the Jewish society.

an Avishai Cohen video/song: "Avram Avinu" (performed in Ladino)

Avishai Cohen - The Official Website - Video: "Avram Avinu"

Ladino is the name used primarily in Israel for Judaeo-Spanish, a Sephardic language, primarily spoken among Sephardic Jews, or for the written form used in religious texts and translations; compare to Ashkenazic Jews' language, Yiddish.

I am just noise-SPAM-ming the neighbourhood with his shuvi elai.
It instantly makes me cry, just out of utter emotion.

He is a kibbutznik. Listen to his music on YouTube! Go and buy his music!
Friends can of course have a "look" at my collection of his music, but he really deserves getting supported.

shuvi elai now runs on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, and that may just turn out to be a loop.
Here are the lyrics for shuvi elai.

Maybe amongst many other important reasons I love his music, because I love the bass a lot. I really miss playing my Rickenbacker (4001).
