City of Oranges
In two days we will know if the Israeli film: Ajami, directed by Scandar Copti and Yaron Shani will be nominated for an Oscar.

He was there! ;-) – ed.) and between then and now there have been several bicycle sharing systems in different countries, the last – Vélib – in Paris, France. They all had their problems, mostly concering vandalism and theft… In Tel Aviv hey will start with 1500 bikes and 150 stations, which will be 5250 bikes and 225 stations in 10 years. I really hope they succeed, because as I said … Read entire article »

An original sketch by the Dutch painter Kees van Dongen (1877-1968) of the pianist Felicja Blumental was discovered, a few weeks ago, in the Felicja Blumental Music Center (Bialik Square, Tel Aviv).
