Menachem Levy "Boi Kala" (Audio)

French singer Menachem Levy is becoming no stranger to Jewish music fans around the globe. To date he has released three singles, each with its own style and flavor showing off his diversity to style and arrangements.

While finishing up his awaited debut album, Menachem decided to release a new single titled Boi Kalah. The melody is from a very popular song in a musical comedy in France played by Daniel Levi. While the musical comedy is a Jewish show, the song has garnered lots of attention in the secular world as well. It is a song the Levy has been requested to sing at many Chuppos in the last year or so. Seeing the emotion that this particular song brings out on the Chasanim and Kalos, he knew he needed to share it with the world.

Presenting, “Boi Kala” as performed by Menachem Levy. The song is available for download on Mostly Music.com and other outlets. Visit his website www.MenahemLevy.com

Chabad Chasidim in Kfar Chabad Sing at י"ט כסלו Event

A Chassidic Farbrengin, celebrating the 19th of Kislev. Joined by singer Benny Friedman and Nemuel Harosh. Conducted by Mona Rosenblum. Tuesday night, Kfar Chabad, Israel.

The 19th day of the Hebrew month of Kislev is celebrated as the “Rosh Hashanah of Chassidism.” It was on this date, in the year 5559 (1798), that the founder of Chabad Chassidism, Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi (known as the Baal HaTanaya and Alter Rebbe) (1745–1812), was freed from his imprisonment in czarist Russia. The 19th of Kislev therefore symbolizes the victory of the Chassidic movement, especially of Chabad, which since then began to take root and spread throughout the Jewish world. Read More Here.

Singing "Podo V'sholom" (Tehilim, 55) Composed by the Chasidim of Rabbi Dovber of Lubavitch, the Mitteler Rebbe. Podo V'sholom is the traditional melody sung by the Lubavitcher Chassidim each year at their farbrengen on the 19th of Kislev. The Baal Hatanya writes that it was during praying the Pesukim of this Perek Tehillim that he was freed.

However, before they greet in Shabbos in Los Angeles they make a special visit together with Moshe Storch to the home of a very special Chabad Shliach Rabbi Yitzi Hurwitz who unfortunately is suffering from ALS disease.

The energy they felt in that room brought out the best music in them as they jumped and twirled in the joy, of simply being a Yid, that Reb Yitzi's smile shines out to all those near him!  Enjoy and daven for the complete Refua Sheleima for Yosef Yitzchack ben Bracha b'karov.

Xfinity's Trucks Cause Multiple Slide offs & Collision

Comcast Xfinity's repair trucks may have caused multiple slide offs and collision.. Filmed on December 13, 2016.

From the author: "I wanted to clear up many questions and concerns people have had.  The cops were called immediately after the first slide off.  I called them personally myself and they were called again after the collision.  They arrived around 30-40 minutes after the collision. After the first Comcast truck appeared and the first slide off happened, we went to the top of the hill and slowed down traffic as much as we could.

The first Comcast truck then left the scene.  You can see me at the top of the hill when he passes on the left of me.  I retrieved some yard signs to act as warnings and was at the top of the hill when the second truck arrived.  I then had the conversation with the second Comcast worker.  The individuals that slid off were asking what he said and I went down to tell them.  This is when the second truck pulled into the same location placing four cones down.  Moments later the accident happened.

My wife was in the front yard taking coffee and hot chocolate orders for the people stuck from the slide offs.  After she was almost hit, I was obviously more agitated.  Then is when I talked to the worker again and then one of the drivers that slid off moved the yard signs to block the road and redirect traffic around a community.

Just to review:
- I did call the police
- I did help slow down traffic
- Some drivers were going too fast for conditions
- The truck that hit the car was going way too fast and ran off after the accident
- I did not film this to try and get anyone fired
- I did not upload this to try and make it go viral
- I contacted Comcast about the situation before uploading the video.
- I let Comcast know I had additional footage
- UPDATED: Comcast has contacted me to apologize today 12/15/16
- Threats have been turned over to the police and will continue to be

There is much more video that shows all of what I explained that is not in this short 3 min piece.  I was concerned for everyone's safety including the workers.  Everyone needs to realize that this took place in about an hour time span.  You are seeing a small window of it.  To call for the heads of the workers, drivers, or us documenting it is just wrong.  Please stay safe out there... "

Self-Driving Car Ejects, Then Parks Perfectly

Car manufacturers, which specialize in autonomous vehicles, may want learn a thing or two from this car.

In this extraordinary footage, taken by Russian traffic cameras in Sochi, in the city of Krasnodar, a car is seen parking perfectly in a space on its own after ejecting its driver from his seat.

The video begins with the car attempting to cross a dual carriageway but is hit by another vehicle. The impact of the car crash forces open the driver's door, ejecting the man, before it loops round and parks perfectly in a car parking space on the other side of the road. After the accident, several drivers rush out of their cars to help the injured man.

Luckily he seems to have survived the incident and is helped off the road.

1970s Advert for IBM’s First Portable Computer

Weighing 50lb and slightly larger than a typewriter, this computer isn't exactly what you would describe as lightweight. But the IBM Model 5100, released in 1977, was marketed as one of the world's first 'portable' computers.

A hilarious video advertising the device shows how far technology has come in the past 40 years.
