While the fake Canaanites invent history at the UN, the modern miracle which is Israel continues to invent, innovate and improve life for all humanity.

IT’S ALL IN YOUR HANDWRITING
Feeling angry, happy, or irritated? A new study at the University of Haifa has found that our handwriting reveals our mood. An ability to identify the subject’s emotions easily and non-invasively could lead to a breakthrough in research and in emotional therapy.
The study included 62 participants, who were divided randomly into three groups. Each group underwent an activity that put the participants in a different mood – positive, negative, and neutral, by viewing appropriate movies. Each group of participants was then asked to write a paragraph on the computerized system including all the letters in the Hebrew alphabet.
The study revealed differences between the three groups in various parameters relating to handwriting. In other words, the participants in each group were in a different mood, and the differences can be gauged empirically.
The findings of the study may help therapists identify their patient’s actual mood, something that naturally is very significant for the therapeutic process.
KIBBUTZIM BECOMING HIGH-TECH HUBS
Israel’s collective communities, or kibbutzim, were first established as agricultural projects but have changed significantly over their 100-year history, showing an astute capability to adapt to a dynamic economic environment. Many of them successfully weathered the Israeli economic crisis of the 1980s to develop a solid industrial sector, which as of 2016 accounted for about three-quarters of kibbutz income, while others turned to technology and products, developing profitable businesses. Others still went down the path of sustainable living,
Now, the kibbutzim, particularly those in southern Israel, are increasingly looking to high-tech and innovation. This is another example of Israeli pioneering innovation and the spirit which drives this country to be a world leader in many fields.
