The medal count was good – four silvers and two bronze – but they tell only half the story of the recently concluded Pan American Maccabi Games, says Maccabi Canada president Tom Bacher.

The best part of the recently concluded games in addition to the intense competition, was the camaraderie, the all-for-one-and-one-for–all attitude of the participants, and the pride in participating in a unique event that brought together Jews from around the world, he said.

WEST BLOOMFIELD, Mich. (JTA) -- Toward the end of his life, Apple's visionary leader, Steve Jobs, was visited by another computer innovator, Microsoft's Bill Gates. The conversation turned to the future of education.

As related in Walter Isaacson’s recent biography of Jobs, both men agreed that computers had made surprisingly little impact on schools.


The Memphis Jewish Community Center is the heart of the Jewish community. The mission of the Memphis Jewish Community Center is to insure Jewish continuity; to support Jewish unity; to enrich Jewish life, and to participate in and promote the well-being of the Jewish and general community and the people of Israel.

The Memphis Jewish Community Center is located at the corner of Poplar and Aaron Brenner Drive between Massey and Kirby.
