Hebrew words in the titles cause much grief. You see the words being rearranged and the title is a complete mess. This is caused by mixing right to left (hebrew) and left to right languages in a single paragraph.
Unfortunately the android text rendering system does not always handle this the way we would want. Try to force it to use left to right as follows.
Insert the Unicode control character LRM before the Hebrew word.
It is necessary to check whether the word refers to the letter from right to left. If yes, use u + 200E this is the left to right mark. Come up with some routine like IsUnicodeHebrew.
