"Takin' Care of Chanukah" by Avraham Rosenblum

From Avraham Rosenblum: "A new take on the traditional "Oh Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel" song. "Takin' Care of Chanukah" appeared on a Philadelphia area TV show in 1996 as part of a multicultural holiday show. I enlisted Rabbi Menachem Schmidt of Philly Chabad and his Baal Shem Tov Band to back me. Rabbi Menachem is a killer lead guitar player. Hope you all enjoy."

"The Copyright Project" Official Music Video

In this lighthearted look at the very serious problem of the illegal copying and downloading that has plagued the music business, Jewish music personalities join forces taking you through a day in the life of a fictitious Jewish singer, portrayed by Yoely Leibowitz.

Like everyone else, he is trying to earn an honest living, support his family and use his abilities to help others, but throughout the day he encounters former singers who have been forced to take other jobs as illegal copying and downloading has eaten away at their primary source of income.

The Music Video which was shot both in London and New York is Directed by Danny Finkelman, and Produced by FM Productions along with Sparks-Next for the AMI magazine. The Song which is both in Yiddish and English was written by the duo Motty Ilowitz & Moshe Kravitsky with original Music by Hershi Ginsberg as well as Motti Cohen.

FedEx Guy About To Be Fired

From the Uploader: Here is a video of my monitor being "delivered". The sad part is that I was home at the time with the front door wide open. All he would have had to do was ring the bell on the gate. Now I have to return my monitor since it is broken.

FedEx has vowed to track down the deliveryman who was caught on video carelessly tossing a computer monitor over a fence during a delivery. Company spokeswoman Shea Leordeanu would not say what would become of the employee once they find him, but added: 'This won't be his best day.'  The  hilariously clip of a FedEx delivery man chucking the computer monitor has attracted over a million viewers on YouTube in a single day, many of whom expressed fears that their holiday packages would be treated with the same regard.
