Scailex Corporation

Scailex Corporation Ltd. (TASE: SCIX) was known as Scitex Corporation Ltd. until December 2005.

History

Scitex was an Israel-based multi-national company, founded by Efraim (Efi) Arazi in the late 1960s, and which at one stage was considered the flagship of Israeli industry. The company specialized in producing products, systems and equipment for the graphics design, printing and publishing markets. In 1985 it formed a joint venture company with the Continental Can Company called Contex Graphics Systems, a pioneer in two- and three-dimensional design systems based on Silicon Graphic workstations.

By the late 1990s Scitex had three principal business units: its core Scitex Graphic Arts Group, which was acquired by Creo Products Inc. in April 2000; Scitex Digital Printing, based in Dayton, Ohio, sold to Eastman Kodak Company in January 2004; and Scitex Vision, sold to Hewlett-Packard (HP) in November 2005.

Following the sale of Scitex Vision to HP, which included certain rights to the name "Scitex", the company changed its name on 29 December 2005 to Scailex Corporation Ltd. and has since experienced several changes in control and business activities. In August 2009, Scailex purchased the controlling share in Partner Communications, one of Israel's leading cellular telephony providers.

Fields of the Brave

by: Styx

Sometimes I close my eyes
And picture the plains
I see Buffalo Bill and the Iroquois
Riding again
Open skies, fertile ground
This was heaven on earth
That they found
We got what they gave
By their God we were saved
They were humble not depraved
These streets we're afraid of
Once were the fields of the brave
The fields of the brave
Where a Chevrolet rusts
By a closed shopping mall
Can you see through the dust
Where the brave ones stood tall
Buried deep where they fell
They live on in the stories we tell
They got what they gave
By their God they were saved
And I say this as I pray
I can't help but dream of
The days these were fields of the brave
The fields of the brave
After all this time
And the struggles in between
We stand next in line
With the chance we can build on their dreams
In the
Fields of the brave
Fields of the brave
We got what they gave
In the fields of the brave
Let their spirits be saved
And I pray this on their graves
There'll be a return of
The days these were fields of the brave
