  • Six Tikunim for Israel at 60
    For Educational Use Only Six T Six Tikkunim for Israel's Sixtieth Year In celebration and commemoration of Israel’s sixtieth anniversary, we propose six Tikkunim . The idea of Tikkun positions people in partnership with God, assuming responsibility for our world. By the same token, we invite Jews in Israel and abroad to share the responsibility for the present and future State of Israel, through meaningful learning and experience of current dilemmas of the sixty- year-old/young country. Halachah offers an educational frame for the number “sixty”, when it claims that food will be considered kosher even if it has a non-kosher ingredient, when the kosher ingredients of the food are sixty times greate r than the non kosher Thinking within this . ָטֵ ל ְִִ י ingredient. This is termed: Nullified by Sixty 1 framework as well as the framework of Tikkun Olam, led us to identify six Tikkunim for Israel’s sixtieth year. We hope that these Tikkunim will serve as an invitation for contemplation and action on that which requires mending and in turn become sixty times greater than other Israeli challenges. In the following document you will find six gates for six Tikkunim . Each gate is thematically inspired by one of the books of the Mishnah: Tikkun of Time תיקו הזמ – Zeraim (1 Tikkun of Shabbat תיקו שבת – Mo’ed (2 Tikkun of Gender תיקו המגדר – Nashim (3 Tikkun of Conservation תיקו השימור - Nezikin (4 Tikkun of the Sacred Place and Space תיקו המקו הקדוש - Kodashim (5 Tikkun of Social Ethics תיקו הכשרות החברתית – Toharot (6 1 " "ָ ל אִ רִ י ֶַ רָה [ ְטֵלִ י ] ְִִ י " ( תלמוד בבלי , קודשי , חולי , פרק ז ', ד+ צ" ח א ' גמרא) 1 Each Tikkun gate includes: a verse introducing the key issue, an essential question, a Jewish Text, an Israeli song and a contemporary Israeli thought.

In 2001 he was appointed as the Vice President of External Relations and Resource Development. Since October 1st 2009 Prof. Lavie has been serving as President of the Technion. In the summer of 2017, he assented to a request by the Technion Council to extend his term in office for another two years. In doing so he became the first President in the history of Technion to be elected for a third term and will serve a total of ten years in office. Under his leadership the Technion stands among the top 100 world class research universities, distinguished by academic excellence, interdisciplinary research strategy, innovative globalization and financial stability. During his tenure, the Technion has recorded a number of impressive achievements led by the recruitment of more than 200 new faculty members, which involved raising extensive resources. By establishing the “Yanai Prize”in academic education, Prof Lavie has led a transformational change in the quality of teaching on campus and in student satisfaction. Prof Lavie conceived and played a principal role in the Technion's expansion to New York where, together with Cornell University, the Jacobs Technion Cornell Institute was opened on Roosevelt Island. Similarly, in China the Technion established the Guangdong Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in Shantou.

Solute movement does not only depend on the mean flow velocity, but its spreading is strongly influenced by the spatially variable distribution of hydraulic conduc- tivity i.e. on heterogeneity. The prevailing lack of transport data at the given site usually prevents model calibration. Thus, there is a need for predictive models based on knowledge of the subsurface structure. A multitude of aquifer heterogeneity conceptualizations exist, from deterministic hydraulic conductivity structures to stochastic and geostatistical approaches such as Multi-Gaussian or multi-indicator models. These concepts have been applied to model tracer distribution patterns of controlled field-scale transport experiments at a few sites. One of
