SYDNEY, April 7 (Reuters Life!)
" A list of Jews saved from the Nazi death camps during World War II by the German industrialist Oskar Schindler has been found in research notes at an Australian library and will go on public display on Tuesday.

The list of 801 Jewish men was found among six boxes of papers that belonged to the Australian author Thomas Keneally who wrote the book "Schindler's Ark" that was the basis for the Oscar-winning film "Schindler's List" by Stephen Spielberg. The 13-page, yellowing, document was found tucked between research notes and German newspaper cuttings by a researcher at the New South Wales Library in Sydney sifting through the boxes of manuscripts acquired by the library in 1996."

From the Australian

Race hate victim settles police dispute

VICTORIA Police will educate officers on race relations after admitting an officer failed to intervene in an attack on a Jewish man.

The police force agreed to use the treatment of Melbourne businessman Menachem Vorchheimer in educating its officers about prejudice.

Mr Vorchheimer forced the police into the embarrassing admission of wrongdoing after he was attacked in October 2006 by a group of drunken country footballers who were on a mini-bus being driven by off-duty policeman Terence Moore.

Hezbollah: Coming to a lounge room near you



Hezbollah 's Al-Manar television channel is being broadcast into Australia. The Sydney Morning Herald features a report indicating that Al-Manar and its vitriolic Anti Semitic content is being beamed via Indonesian company Indosat and that it is carrying talk shows, documentaries and programing dedicated to anti-Israeli, anti Western and pro militancy views.

Another troublesome aspect is that it carries children's programing and actively calls upon viewers to donate.

Mr Bagel without the cheese.

What can I say? Ive been gone a looong time?

Am I still loved?

I don't know I can understand why some may have cast my memory to the wind.

The fact is my life has gone through some of the most radical changes I've ever experienced.

I no longer live in a remote farm house far from any town, I've moved to a rather large city.

But the really big changes are that I entered into a popular weight loss competition and well after 3 months of dieting and intense working out I've lost a staggering amount of weight.

How much? Lets say 50 kilograms. So who won the competition then? Well, I was fortunate enough to be the winner, and I walked away with a prestige car for free.

But the real reward was the look on my wife and childrens faces, seeing them realising that now, finally I can step up and be active and play with my children.

My friends who knew me before my weight lose still find it hard to believe just how much I have changed, both physically, emotionally and spiritually.

OK so now that you lost 50 kilos, have a brand new car what else is new?

Ive been inundated with job offers, after a quite overwhelming degree of publicity, Ive taken a position which Ive always wanted. In a nutshell, Ive now got the Job I've always dreamed of having!

So, I'm sorry for neglecting my blogging friends and readers, I hope you can find it in your hearts to understand my need to neglect my blogging and be rather uncommunicative.

Theres so much that has changed in my life in the last three months that it staggers me.

Absence hopefully does make the heart grow fonder.

South Africans Take Dim View of Project Sydney

Dan Goldberg
Jewish Telegraphic Agency

South African Jewish leaders are fuming over a new initiative by Sydney's Jewish community to help Jews emigrate from Africa to Australia.

Zev Krengel, the national chairman of the South African Jewish Board of Deputies, wrote a letter last month urging Jewish leaders to suspend Project Sydney, a joint initiative of the New South Wales Jewish Communal Appeal and the New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies.

"Seldom in the history of our community has there been such outrage towards the Jewish community of another country," charged Krengel. "From around South Africa, I am receiving calls expressing disquiet."

He wrote later: "We there believe that it is distasteful in the extreme and embarrassing for South African Jews to have you launch a campaign through published advertisements and a high-profile visit to attract members of our community to Sydney."
