Special thanks to: all of my family - especially my wife  Rinatia for her constant love, support and inspiration; my brothers -Tommer, for  his musical advice and Doron, for maintaining my studio and computers; Valery  Lipetz for the musical and mental support and for helping me to see the big  picture; Merav Josef for her friendship and assistance; Jackie Frankel for her  constant smile and invaluable assistance with everything; Jamie Faye for helping to guide and focus me in the right direction; and Suzy Reynolds for her guidance  and professional help.
