A Young Business Owners Donation to Education

A good education is an asset that will stay with a student long after they graduate. Schools should focus on building character, teaching students how to grow into their own, so they can continue succeeding in their lives, no matter where life takes them. Teachers should inspire students with the practical skills necessary to be successful in the real world. This is the principle that led Mottie Wiener, CEO of DailySteals.com to sponsor the awards for teachers who participated in the first successful year of Menachem Education Foundation’s Data Driven Instruction program.

Hungarian Neo-Nazis march in Budapest.

The website is awash with neo-Nazi symbolism and even sarcastically refers to the notorious Mauthausen concentration camp as Austria’s largest open-air museum. But attempts to cripple the xenophobic “Alpen-Donau” forum have been hindered by the fact it’s housed on a U.S. server, an example of how free speech on one side of the Atlantic can help spread hate speech on the other.

What is so impressive about us that should be flaunted in front of hundreds of thousands? One proud voice stood out and said “what do you mean? Aliya is the greatest place on earth and let's share our great energy and talents with the whole community”.
