Your Cocktails May Never Be The Same!
[This is a pro-tip for my friends who enjoy a well-made cocktail once in a while] Many the classic and not-so-classic cocktail recipes call for ‘simple syrup’. But until last night I didn’t think about this basic ingredient as a blank flavor canvas on which one can splash a wide range of accent...
So her life is forfeit? Judgmental much?

Much Ado About Headgear
I've seen more than a few FB posts about the latest 'Trump scandal'. No, not that one. Apparently, during one of her costume changes on her visit to Kenya, First Lady Melania Trump was spotted wearing a Pith Helmet-inspire hat. Apparently, lacking anything else newsworthy to latch onto today...
Of course

Really?! In 2018 We're Still Arguing About Breastfeeding?
I honestly don’t get the never-ending uproar about breastfeeding in public. I was so confused by this that I googled “arguments against public breastfeeding’, and noted that the following three reasons (in one form or another), are consistently the top three results: #1: Public Nursing is Indece...
I also read Al Jezera. It's about getting the broad picture.

New York Times Report Card: D-
Last night just after midnight, Iranian military forces in Syria launched a missile strike on Israel using between 18 and 20 Fajr-5 rockets. For reference, each of these unguided rockets is about 6.5 meters long (a bit over 21 ft), has a range of approximately 75Km (about 50 miles) and can carr...
Alissa... There are thousands of taxi drivers, barbers and bartenders in line ahead of me. :-)
Is a friend who spills your secrets really a friend?
Has anyone else noticed a very disturbing trend in the relationship between Israel and the United States? Specifically that the US government seems to be ratting out just about every single military / intelligence operation the Israeli government allegedly carries out. It's like a jealous frie...
Fred... Your comment just reinforces what I've been saying for years: that there is a dire need for a sarcasm font on the Internet.
Problem Solved
It turns out that the interim agreement signed with Iran isn't as problematic as I originally thought. I was just reading the text of the agreement, and it starts out, "If you like your current nuclear program, you can keep your current nuclear program...". Problem solved. Iran is totally going...
I spoke with Ari briefly earlier today.
She has promised to post details about the cookies for soldiers thing for those who want to contribute/participate.
Thoughts of a soldier during a very long shmira (guard duty)...
[a guest post by Ariella] Well I guess I should start at the beginning. My name is Ariella Bogner. I was born in the US, and in 2003 when I was 9 years old, I moved with my family to an Israeli town called Efrat. I went to a high school in Jerusalem called Pelech, and after i graduated I did a y...
Dans... I'm all for a good conspiracy theory, but seriously dude, take off the tin foil hat and relax.
Let me tell you how this all plays out in Syria
No, I don't have any special powers of prophecy... nor do I have access to secret intelligence that would give me an inside track as to what will happen in Syria. What I do have is a voracious appetite for both history and current events. Anyone with access to both, and the curiosity to occasio...
Ari... As my post today makes clear, even in the most optimistic scenario, Israel is going to be forced to jump off the cliff first. And then those left standing on the precipice will start to hem and haw about whether or not they will ever jump.

Wry Mouth... Nice catch. I need to be more careful. :-)
Lending the UN a Modicum of Moral Clarity
At a time when the UN Security Council is having difficulty forming a consensus as to whether the deliberate killing of as many as 1300 Syrian civilians - many of them children - with nerve gas, warrants explicit condemnation, muh less a clear directive to actually investigate... it is reassuring...
Nope. I shaved off my beard a few years ago. Please try to keep up. :-)

Trying to stay out of this
Even though I still pay taxes (and vote) in the US, since I no longer live there I should probably refrain from weighing in on current events there. However, I have to say I am non-plussed by the demonstrations taking place in the wake of the Zimmerman verdict. A demonstration/protest usually h...
