"SodaStream" Israeli Company with 900 Arab Employees
SodaStream is the maker of a consumer home carbonation product based on the principles of making a carbonated drink as originally invented by Guy Gilbey in 1903. The device allows users to take ordinary tap water and carbonate it to create soda water (or carbonated water) to drink. With the addition of one of over 100 different types of concentrated syrups and flavorings produced by Sodastream, owners can create carbonated beverages. After the company merged with Soda-Club in 1998, it was relaunched with an emphasis on healthier drinks.
It went public on the Nasdaq stock exchange in November 2010. Sodastream is currently headquartered in Israel, and has 13 production plants. In its marketing, the company currently focuses on environmental attractiveness of using tap water and returnable gas cylinders. Sodastream has been involved in numerous environmental projects, including waste reduction, beach cleanup and reforestation.
The EU's highest court ruled in 2010 that Sodastream was not entitled to claim a "Made in Israel" exemption from EU customs payments because of the companies' primary manufacturing plant location in the West Bank industrial park of Mishor Adumim on occupied lands.
Sodastream has been criticized for operating the manufacturing plant in the West Bank by the CODEPINK, which accuses the company of profiting from the "occupation," and Israeli non-governmental organizations Coalition of Women for Peace and Peace Now, as well as other human rights organizations. Sodastream employs 500 West Bank Palestinians, in addition to 400 Palestinians from East Jerusalem.
In face of the criticism, Daniel Birnbaum, CEO of SodaStream, replied, "Our factories are apolitical. We don’t take sides in this conflict. We are building bridges between us and the Palestinian population, and we provide our Palestinian employees with respectable employment opportunities and an appropriate salary and benefits. I want people to finally realize that we’re talking about people and that peace is possible, despite the politicians. If there were another hundred companies like us extending a hand to the other side, we would have a peace agreement, because everybody wants it, including the Palestinians. Activists have responded that SodaStream is just exploiting local cheap labor.

Bulldozer and Crane Topple Into Pit
This guy in Russia caused a little more than $100,000 in damage when he didn’t think about lowering a bulldozer into a pit with a crane.

Devorah Halberstam Speaks Out on Gun Rights
Devorah , mother of Ari Halberstam HY"D speaks out on gun control to a local NY news station. This Tuesday, the 23rd of Adar is Ari's 19th Yahrtzeit.
On March 1, 1994, Ari Halberstam was visiting the ailing Lubavitcher Rebbe at the Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, and was returning to his Brooklyn home via the Brooklyn Bridge. On the entrance ramp to the bridge, gunman Rashid Baz YM"S opened fire on the van, which also carried more than a dozen other Chabad students. Baz was equipped with a submachine gun, two 9mm guns, and a "street sweeper" shotgun. Bas pursued the van across the bridge as he fired in three separate bursts, spraying both sides of the van, before disappearing into traffic. During the shooting spree, the gunman reportedly shouted in Arabic "Kill the Jews," expressing revenge for the terrorist massacre of 29 Muslim worshipers at the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron by Baruch Goldstein. The attack critically wounded two of the young men and injured two others.
Halberstam was rushed to St. Vincent's Hospital and was the most severely wounded, having been shot in the head by Baz. As a result of the massive brain injuries, Halberstam was pronounced dead five days after the shooting.
As the funeral procession took place on Eastern Parkway, outside the central Lubavitcher synagogue, some 10,000 mourners and more than 250 police officers took part in the event, to maintain safety. Halberstam was buried in the Montefiore Cemetery in Queens.
