Hi Everyone!

This week, I launched an upgraded version of my educational and entertaining website:
The Jewish Trivia Quiz
http://www.jewish-trivia.com

There are over 800 multiple choice questions in the system.
Level 1 questions are geared to young students and Level 2 questions are geared to older students and adults. There are 14 topics including Chanukah. You can choose your level of play and timer settings.

The new site lets you share questions with your friends.
For example question 829 (level 2) is:
On back of which Israeli coin, in use today, is a picture
of the temple candelabrum (menorah) ?
You can share this question directly with the link:
www.jewish-trivia.com/q829

There are social media buttons to share questions on social networks.

Feedback is welcome!

Today, I was in Jerusalem taking cool Chanukah Photos.
I posted them online at:

Please share this email with friends.
Thank You!

Have a good month (Tevet) and Happy Chanukah!
Chodesh Tov and Chanukah Sameach!
