The Green Car Revolution Will Start In Israel
2007-12-17 09:34:00 The Israel i government has decided practically to adopt an electrical car project called the "Better Place Project " by Mr. Shai Agassi & Mr. Idan Offer. The project itself was publicly announced about 2 months ago at a well covered press conference in New York. On it’s basic terms, the project offers almost an Utopian vision of a world in which customers will be able to purchase electrical cars, from any car manufacturer, at relatively low prices (without batteries). New companies will be created only for this purpose, and will provide the necessary maintenance and service – e.g. batteries charging stations and batteries replacement spots etc. In addition, thousands of charging stations will be deployed on a large scale almost everywhere at supermarkets, shopping malls parking lots, private residences, etc. One may compare the project to the ubiquitous cellular phone services which enable every customer to buy any cell phone of any brand and use any cellu...

Tzofim Chetz V’Keshet - Visit Israel The Right Way!
2007-12-06 15:21:00 We at Israel On Blog, support all programs that offer summer programs in Israel. One of the better programs we discovered recently is “Tzofim Chetz V’Kesh et”. here are the details: Tzofim Chetz V’Keshet offers the only Israel summer program where teenagers from across the globe discover Israel alongside other Israeli teenagers from the Israeli Scout movement. Together, Israelis, North Americans, South Americans and European kids pray at the Kotel, snorkel in the Red Sea, and undergo a week-long army training, Gadna, that mirrors what every Israeli experiences upon entering the IDF. Hebrew Language Immersion! Because the program is led together with the Educational Division of the Israeli Army, each group leader is capable of teaching Hebrew to non-speaking teenagers in an informal setting. Because of the Israeli leaders and Israeli chanichim, every teenager on CVK’s program will be immersed in the Hebrew language. This is not done through a classroom setting. Rath... More About: Visit
Customized Tours in Israel ? a fascinating experience tailor-made for YOU!
2007-11-12 08:45:00 By Yoav Gal, CEO, Israel My Way ? Customized Tours (www.israelmyway.co.il) “Customized Tours” ? what are they? Quite simply: we all wish to design our house of dreams, choose our preferred dish rather than be bound by a fixed menu, or select our favorite TV show from dozens of channels. Equally, we all wish our next adventure abroad to be customized just for us. And while true anywhere, this is even more significant when traveling in Israel. Imagine a tour to the Sea of Galilee, Jerusalem or the Negev desert. You could of course join a ‘regular’ guided tour for organized groups and enjoy a comfortable seat aboard the luxury coach, listening to educated explanations by the tour guide on the speakers. But this would be ’sightseeing’, not a true, lifelong memory. Now, imagine a customized tour: In the Sea of Galilee, a full-moon beach party with a dip in the lake, BBQ and tons of beer, with a belly dancer moving to the beat of oriental drums. Prepa...

The effect of Tomesa therapy on epidermal Langerhans cells in experimental
2007-11-10 09:40:00 Gruner S. Zwirner A. Diezel W. Boonen H. Sonnichsen N. 1990 | DERMATOLOGISCHE MONATSSCHRIFT In the last years a new therapy of psoriasis was developed, which consists in a treatment with salt solutions, resembling the water of the Dead Sea , and ultraviolet light (Tomesa-therapy). We studied the influence of the used salt on ATPase positive epidermal Langerhans cells in murine ear skin. An irreversible partial reduction of the Langerhans cell ATPase was found after salt treatment of separated epidermis or of full skin preparations. These results may have implications for the optimization and broader application of this therapy.

Tel Aviv Bauhaus - The White City - Bauhaus Beauty
2007-11-04 09:26:00 History bestowed upon Tel Aviv unique architectural gems, first and foremost, the world’s largest concentration of buildings in the international style. It all started in the mid -1920s, when the cheeky “teenaged” city began to signal that it was already grown up and starting to be a metropolis. What was missing, through city officials, was a unified architectural style ? so they decided to build a new quarter using Bauhaus design principles. The decision did not come out of the blue: Starting in the early 1930s, Tel Aviv became home to numerous graduates of Europe’s top architectural schools, who drew their inspiration from the Modernist movement in architecture, primly from the Bauhaus school of art and architecture in Berlin. Characteristics of the international style include asymmetric composition, minimalism and elimination of decorative elements that do not serve a useful purpose. Interior design is simple and functional, flat roofs allow for the garden... More About: Video , Beauty , White , City
Determination of solar ultraviolet dose in the Dead Sea treatment of psoria
2007-11-01 09:05:00 Even-Paz Z. Efron D.2003 | ISRAEL MEDICAL ASSOCIATION JOURNALAn increased risk of developing cancer of the skin is the only potentially serious (albeit unproven) long-term side effect of heliotherapy and it is therefore prudent to avoid unnecessary exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation. Traditional heliotherapy for psoriasis at the Dead Sea calls for a sun exposure of 5-6 hours daily for 28 days. Studies have determined that mid-summer exposure for 3 hours is equally effective.Objectives: To determine the effect of 3 hours sun exposure daily in the heliotherapy of psoriasis at the Dead Sea during the months March to December; and to monitor the associated ambient doses of solar UVB radiation.Methods: A total of 194 patients with moderate to severe psoriasis was treated in the months of March to December by 3 hours of sun exposure each day. The dose of ambient solar UVB was monitored by a Solar Model 501A UVB- Biometer.Results: Three hours of sun exposure daily was ... More About: Treatment , Dose
