Bank Leumi (Hebrew: בנק לאומי, lit. National Bank; Arabic: بنك لئومي) is an Israeli bank. It was founded on February 27, 1902, in Jaffa as the Anglo Palestine Company as subsidiary of the Jewish Colonial Trust (Jüdische Kolonialbank) Limited[3]: p.19 formed before in London by members of the Zionist movement to promote the industry, construction, agriculture, and infrastructure of the land hoped to ultimately become Israel. Today, Bank Leumi is Israel's largest bank (by total assets as of 2015), with overseas offices in Luxembourg,[4] US, Switzerland, the UK, Mexico, Uruguay, Romania, Jersey, and China.[5]
Though nationalized in 1981, now Bank Leumi is mainly in private hands, with the government as the largest single shareholder, with 14.8% of the stock (as of June 2006). The other major shareholders are Shlomo Eliyahu and Branea Invest, which each hold 10% of the stock, constituting the control core of the bank. Sixty percent of the bank's stocks are held by the public and traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.
If banks were merely a box in which people store their assets, there would be no issue in taking back your property from the box, just like if you check your coat at a restaurant or club, you wouldn't expect the restaurant/club to go bankrupt if everyone wanted their own property back at the end of the evening.
Пожилым is the dative case plural form of elderly (adjective). людям is the dative case form for people. The dative case can be used for giving things and direction of something. Other times it simply has a specific abstract grammatical usage. Any of you guys familiar with Spanish will know the verb dar--to give. I think in English grammar the indirect object has same relation to the objects in the dative case. Attention is towards someone/something кому/чему. So it means:
It is important to give attention to elderly people.
ПOзBohи is actually позвони, which is the perfective command form of the verb позвоинть-- to call.

Post Turtle -- The joke
An old Rancher is talking about politics with a young man from the city. He compares a politician to a "post turtle." The young man doesn't understand and asks him what a post turtle is.
The old man says, "When you're driving down a country road and you see a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle. You know he didn't get up there by himself. He doesn't belong there; you wonder who put him there; he can't get anything done while he's up there; and you just want to help the poor thing down."

My point is that these websites depend on ad revenue. If they don't strongly moderate and trample free speech, their ad revenue can be cut.
Some of the comments are really funny:
