  • How Management of the Length of Stay of Shelter Animals Can Influence the Capacity of an Animal Shelter and Save More Lives Van Der Leij, W.J.R
    The 41st Symposium of Veterinary Medicine: Animal Welfare Koret School of Veterinary Medicine, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel Kindly sponsored by Lynne and Phil Himelstein, USA INVITED LECTURES How Management of the Length of Stay of Shelter Animals can Influence the Capacity of an Animal Shelter and Save More Lives Van der Leij, W.J.R. Department of Companion Animals, Shelter Medicine program, Utrecht University, The Netherlands Shelters are trying their best to get as many animals released alive by returning them to their owners, getting them adopted, relocated or returned to the wild. From the first day of intake into an animal shelter however, the days are counting for a shelter animal. The Length of Stay (LOS) per animal is a crucial factor for its wellbeing, for an increased LOS will negatively affect the physical and behavioral health of the animal. And when animals get ill, their treatment even prolongs their shelter stay while it impairs their welfare. For health and welfare reasons animals should spent the shortest time possible in animal shelters. The LOS per animal can be influenced by adjustment of the intake and rehoming procedures combined with improvements of preventive health management. A decrease in the LOS can result in a decrease in the daily shelter population, in healthier animals, lower shelter care costs per animal and an increase in the shelter’s capacity to save lives. Outbreak Management of Infectious Diseases in Animal Shelters Van der Leij, W.J.R. Department of Companion Animals, Shelter Medicine program, Utrecht University, The Netherlands The principle of offering care and shelter to homeless animals is intrinsically connected with the increased risks of outbreaks of infectious diseases.

  • Israeli Automotive and Mobility Startups
    DIRECTORY TO ISRAELI AUTOMOTIVE AND MOBILITY STARTUPS DIRECTORY TO ISRAELI AUTOMOTIVE AND MOBILITY STARTUPS JANUARY 2021 1 DIRECTORY TO ISRAELI AUTOMOTIVE AND MOBILITY STARTUPS Israel has emerged as a hotbed of innovation in the automotive and mobility worlds as well as the broader business of making things. According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, the Startup Nation in 2018 contributed 4.94 percent of its gross domestic product to R&D — more than any other member country. Automakers including Ford, BMW, Volkswagen and Hyundai have invested in Israeli companies. So have suppliers such as Bosch, Denso and Continental. Among technology giants, Intel and Google have made the acquisition of Israeli startups part of their strategies to bolster their automotive and mobility investments. Collectively, these young companies are at the center of advanced automotive developments as well as cloud computing, 3D printing, predictive sensing, the Internet of Things, augmented and virtual reality and a host of other Industry 4.0 technologies that are helping multinational corporations improve their performance. With that in mind, Automotive News is publishing its first directory of Israeli startups. The 54 companies represented here all responded to an Automotive News survey and are part of a broader community. Our intent is simple: to deliver a resource our readers can use to begin to navigate this increasingly important world. For questions or to inquire about future directories, contact Steve Schmith at [email protected].

  • Back and Forth: Commuting for Work in Israel Haim Bleikh*
    1 Executive Summary Back and Forth: Commuting for Work in Israel Haim Bleikh* Full research study published in October 2018 The subject of commuting has attracted more and more public attention in Israel in recent years as road congestion levels continue to rise with the increasing number of commuters. Over the last 30 years, the number of employed persons working outside their residential area has risen from 42 percent to 54 percent (as of 2016) among Israelis of working age (25-64). The main mode of commuting is by private car and the number of rides has grown faster than road expansion — creating the traffic jams that have become all too familiar. Commuting distance, time, and mode of transportation Most trips to work are short. Three out of every four workers ages 25-64 travel 20 kilometers or less to reach their workplace, mostly in private vehicles (for 2014-2016). About 60 percent of workers travel for no more than half an hour, 30 percent between half an hour and an hour, and about 10 percent travel for over an hour in each direction. Regarding the choice in mode of transportation — 62 percent commute to work by car (including shared rides) and only 17 percent commute by public transportation. About 10 percent commute by bicycle or by foot and 8 percent commute by work- organized transportation. There are large differences in commuting patterns in different parts of the country. For example, in both Jerusalem and Petah Tikva many commuters travel between half an hour and an hour, but in Jerusalem (where 91 percent of residents work within the city) this seems to be due to the extensive use of public transportation and large city size while, in Petah Tikva, a higher percentage use a private vehicle and commute distances of up to 20 kilometers, indicating that the travel time is a result of traffic congestion.

  • Fredrika Shavit V. Rishon Lezion Jewish Burial Society
    CA 6024/97 Fredrika Shavit v. Rishon Lezion Jewish Burial Society The Supreme Court sitting as the Court of Civil Appeals [July 6, 1999] Before Court President A. Barak, Justices M. Cheshin, I. Englard. Facts: Petitioner challenged the refusal of a Jewish burial society to allow an inscription on her mother's tombstone recording the dates of birth and death according to the Gregorian, as well as the Hebrew, calendar. The district court held that the recently-passed Alternative Burial Law permitted Jews to bury their loved ones in civilian cemeteries, not according to Jewish religious law, had the effect of overturning previous court rulings requiring Jewish burial societies to permit non-Hebrew characters and dates on tombstones. Sites have yet to be established for alternative burial. Held: Jewish burial societies have a public, as well as a private, character, and as such are subject to public law. The Alternative Burial Law did not have the effect of overruling previous holdings requiring Jewish burial societies to permit non-Hebrew lettering. This is particularly true because the statute has yet to be implemented. Barring family members from recording the names of their deceased loved ones in the language of their choice harms the sensibilities of the relatives and the human dignity of the deceased. It outweighs the potential harm to the sensibilities of religious visitors to the cemetery who may be offended by the non-Hebrew lettering, particularly considering that the Jewish law prohibition against inscribing non-Hebrew calendar dates and letters is not sweeping and comprehensive. Furthermore, the weight accorded to the sensibilities of religious people offended by practices that violate religious law decreases in the public domain, like a cemetery, as compared to the weight such harm is accorded in the private domain, like the home.
