    The widespread custom of sending Jewish New Year's cards dates to the Middle Ages, thus predating by centuries Christian New Year's cards, popular in Europe and the United States only since the 19 century. The custom is first mentioned in the Book of Customs of Rabbi Jacob, son of Moses *Moellin (1360–1427), the spiritual leader of German Jewry in the 14 century (Minhagei Maharil, first ed. Sabionetta, 1556). Based on the familiar talmudic dictum in tractate Rosh ha-Shanah 16b concerning the "setting down" of one's fate in one of the three Heavenly books that are opened on the Jewish New Year, the Maharil and other German rabbis recommended that letters sent during the month of Elul should open with the blessing "May you be inscribed and sealed for a good year." Outside of Germany and Austria, other Jewish communities, such as the Sephardi and Oriental Jews, only adopted this custom in recent generations. The German-Jewish custom reached widespread popularity with the invention – in Vienna, 1869 – of the postal card. The peak period of the illustrated postcard, called in the literature "The Postal Card Craze" (1898–1918), also marks the flourishing of the Jewish New Year's card, produced in three major centers: Germany, Poland, and the U.S. (chiefly in New York). The German cards are frequently illustrated with biblical themes. The makers of Jewish cards in Warsaw, on the other hand, preferred to depict the religious life of East European Jewry in a nostalgic manner. Though the images on their cards were often theatrically staged in a studio with amateur actors, they preserve views and customs lost in the Holocaust. The mass immigration of the Jews from Eastern Europe to the United States in the first decades of the 20 century gave a new boost to the production of the cards. Some depicted America as the new homeland, opening her arms to the new immigrants, others emphasized Zionist ideology and depicted contemporary views of Ereẓ Israel. The Jews of 19 c. Ereẓ Israel ("the old yishuv"), even prior to the invention of the postal card, sent tablets of varying sizes with wishes and images for the New Year, often sent abroad for fundraising purposes. These tablets depicted the "Four Holy Cities" as well as holy sites in and around Jerusalem. A popular biblical motif was the Binding of Isaac, often taking place against the background of the Temple Mount and accompanied by the appropriate prayer for Rosh ha-Shanah. Also common were views of the yeshivot or buildings of the organizations which produced these tablets. In the 1920s and 1930s the cards highlighted the acquisition of the land and the toil on it as well as "secular" views of the proud new pioneers. Not only did this basically religious custom continue and become more popular, but the new cards attest to a burst of creativity and originality on the subject matter as well as in design and the selection of accompanying text. Over the years, since the establishment of the State of Israel, the custom has continued to flourish, with the scenes and wishes on the cards developing as social needs and situations changed. The last two decades of the 20 century have seen a decline in the mailing of New Year's cards in Israel, superseded by phone calls or internet messages. In other countries, especially the U.S., cards with traditional symbols are still commonly sent by mail, more elaborately designed than in the past. Thus, the simple and naïve New Year's card vividly reflects the dramatic changes in the life of the Jewish people over the last generations.
    Tnuva – Israel’s largest food manufacturer Tnuva was established in 1926, when the moshavim and kibbutzim decided to coordinate and unify all stages of processing, producing and distributing fresh agricultural produce. At first, Tnuva distributed only fresh milk for drinking and later on also dairy products . In the early 1930s, as it became more established, Tnuva began marketing additional fresh farm produce: eggs, poultry, vegetables and fruits. Tnuva developed parallel to the development of the Jewish community in the country, and following the establishment of the State of Israel played an important role in the growth of Israel’s economy. Hundreds of refrigerated trucks transporting fresh produce, bearing the Tnuva logo, made sure that every city, town and village across the country were reached every day, throughout the year. Over the years, Tnuva became an inseparable part of the day-to-day life of every child, family and household in Israel. In the ’50s and ’60s the concept of “Tnuva children” became popularized as an expression symbolizing healthy children enjoying sound, natural and tasty nourishment. For a detailed historical survey, visit the Tnuva Museum website. (Hebrew)  The narrative of Tnuva – established as a Cooperative Society in 1926 and over the years becoming the largest food corporation in Israel - is interwoven with the story of the State of Israel. Tnuva developed and grew in parallel to the Jewish settlement in the country, while taking upon itself national-social roles. Following the establishment of the State of Israel Tnuva fulfilled an important role in the development of Israel’s economy. Tnuva closely accompanied all the historical milestones in the history of the Yishuv and the State. Hundreds of refrigerated trucks transporting fresh produce, bearing the Tnuva logo, made sure that every settlement and district across the country were reached every day, throughout the year. Tnuva, or Tenuvah, (Hebrew: תנובה‎‎, fruit or produce) is a cooperative (co-op) in Israel historically specialised in milk and dairy products, controlled by a Chinese state company since 2014. The 620 members of the cooperative are made up of a large number of kibbutzim (collective farms) and moshavim (agricultural communities). Tnuva is the largest food manufacturer in Israel; its sales account for 70% of the country's dairy market as well as sales of meat, eggs and packaged food. Contents  [hide]  1 History 1.1 The cottage cheese protest 2 References 3 External links History[edit] Tnuva Central Cooperative for the Marketing of Agricultural Produce in Israel Ltd. was created in 1926, following a decision by kibbutz movement leaders to make cooperatives to distribute and export several types of food products. Tnuva was created as a result, but at first only delivered regular milk for drinking. It expanded to cover other dairy products in the 1930s. Tnuva was labelled by the Israel Antitrust Authority as a monopoly,[1] a status that essentially places the company under government regulation, limiting the way it can change the price of its products in order to protect the consumer and smaller competitors. An advertising campaign for Tnuva milk, showing cosmonaut Vasily Tsibliyev (Russia) drinking milk aboard the Mir space station, was broadcast on 22 August 1997. This occasion also marked the first time that milk in liquid form had been sent into space.[2] In 2006, it was reported that the Markstone Capital Partners Fund was interested in purchasing Tnuva and its assets for about 0 million. The general manager, Arik Reichman, valued the company at between 0 million to billion.[3] Another obstacle to selling the company or even a large minority share, was the need to convert the cooperative to a company, which would require the approval of a majority of the members. On 20 November 2006, Apax Partners Worldwide LLP, a London-based buyout firm, won a tender to buy control of Tnuva. The bid valued the privately held food and dairy group at .025 billion, larger than Strauss-Elite Ltd. and Osem Investments Ltd., the two largest publicly-held Israeli food companies. In June 2011, Israeli consumer action groups called for a customer ban on Tnuva products.[4] In 2012 Tnuva's Romanian branch went into bankruptcy. On 21 May 2014, a controlling interest in Tnuva was bought by the Chinese food conglomerate Bright Foods. The company paid .5 billion for a 56% holding, purchasing the shares from Apax and other investors.[5] The cottage cheese protest[edit] See also: Cottage cheese boycott In September 2011, a class action was started alleging that "Tnuva abused its position to raise cottage cheese prices by more than 40% between 2006 and 2011."[6]Prof. Avia Spivak and Dr. Meir Amir claimed that between 2009 and 2010, the price of cottage cheese increased 12% while its production cost decreased 4% leaving no doubt that Tnuva took advantage of its monopoly to repeatedly raised prices.[6] The academics claimed this "was unreasonable, not to mention immoral, and could be carried out only by a monopoly."[6] Witnesses for the company claimed the price changes were caused by increased retailer profit margins, an issue Spivak and Amir claimed could be resolved by publishing wholesale figures.[6]     ebay4011
