They can't all be funny
I realize that this is hardly original. The first two thirds of the comic (slightly embellished) actually happened on Thanksgiving. The final third of the comic occurred to me while I was getting ready to go back to work on Friday. It shakes you up a bit when you start to see it happening in real life and not in some schmaltzy folk rock song.

recommendations coming! Click here, for info on Fanfictastic Friday.
It was gone for a week but it's back! Here are some fics recommended by other readers that are worth the read. I have to say a big 'thank you' to the many readers who take the time to recommend these stories. Since starting this blog I've heard from writers who appreciate the love from their fans. As well as readers who find value in this list look forward to the blog post. So ... I sincerely thank each of you.
Allegro by Chiisai-kitty
For starters, it's written by my fabulous beta, chiisai-kitty. She has a way with words, and snark, that blows me away. She has an eye for fashion design which blends PERFECTLY with this story. Allegro is Dancing with the Stars meets SVM - but you don't need to watch the show to love the fic! Trust me, I speak from experience. Actor Eric is teamed with Pro Dancer Sookie and, eventually, sparks fly! This is a GREAT little fic that deserves much more attention! -- Lubadub
Better Man by Seastarr08
I so shouldn't be reading a new fic right now when I have about 12 updates sitting in my inbox but when I saw one of my favorite authors with a new fic, well. I am weak, very, very weak. I am so glad I am very, very weak. I am loving this fic! It's still new and just a few chapters in but I have to say I am digging it hard. So much to explore in a story like this. And let's be honest here, it's seastarr08, she is really good at melding angst, sex, humor, and RL emotions into a fic. With every fic I have seen real growth from her as a writer and again she does not disappoint! Put it on your alerts people! I promise you will be oh so very glad you did! -- Kyss Ericsson
The newest all human offering from seastarr08! Eric and Sookie are SUPERHEROES who fight crime in New York City. They work independently, but for the same billionaire benefactor. What happens when these two team up? Will they ever discover each other's secret identity? Four chapters in and I'm already hooked!! ERIC CAN FLY! That's all you need to know to want to read! -- Lubadub
Chasing the Light by FarDareisMai2
E/S plus the rest of the gang/canon. A mega 34 chapter book from the one and only FarDareisMai2. Now be warned ok!? This is not a nice fluffy read, in fact it's Ms Angst, of Angst Street, Angstville, Angst County. Do I make myself clear lol? Adult themes, disturbing happenings (but nothing even remotely OTT) and a bloody good read! Sookie is kidnapped and our lovely man moves heaven and earth to get her back, chasing her, and sundown, halfway across the world. Will what happens to her change her so much that he if he does get her back he will wonder where his Sookie went? Who knows? (well FDM does, obviously :)) This is an unputdownable read and there is a great ensemble cast. -- Alison at Northman Maille
Dead and Blonde by Math Princess
This is a what if story. How would things go if Eric was originally sent instead of Bill to find Sookie and bring her to service of the Queen? Would Sookie be as receptive to Eric as she was to Bill? How would Eric treat her? I enjoy the personalities of the characters. It is fun to see Eric and Sookie get to know each other. It is heartening to see Sookie be open and friendly with Eric. (I must disclose that I beta this story.) -- Northwoman
Dead Pan Contest Fics by Various Authors
The 6th SVM contest hosted on the Fanfiction.net has over 25 fics submitted. After tomorrow, 5/15, it's read and review time. With fics spoofing just about anything from Gone with the Wind to Dexter, you can find a wide variety. The writers were very creative! So check them out because the next step is voting. (Check the contests' profile pages for details.) -- Sapfirerose
Ethan Church by Dryler
TWI fic. I found this fic on another authors list of favorite stories, I don't remember, but I think it was Zigster. I love that this is a mysterious and romantic fic. It's story driven and captivating. Bella goes to write the biography of a reclusive author, where she meets a "ghost" on his property. The chapters leave you wondering what could be coming next and how the pieces fit together. -- Missus T
Glass Houses by Terri Botta
One of my absolute favorite one-shots. Beautiful and full of heartfail, yet seasoned with just enough humor to create a masterpiece. And now there's a bonus-- she updated it with a second chapter a few months ago. This is one of my favorite vamp Erics. I don't know how she does it, but she somehow manages to show his sweetness and devotion, without taking away any of the Viking's bad-ass-ness. And, her use of a Gone with the Wind reference will just make you smile and sniffle at the same time. If you have not enjoyed this little gem, it is a must read! -- pixiegiggles
Heroes & Hitmen and Wife Swap by NorCrisp76 (SVM/Night Huntress Series Crossover)
If you love SVM (and if you don't you are in the wrong place dude:) and you love Night Huntress then you can't do better than these TWO fics, that's right guys, it's a 2 for 1 recommendation. They are written by Norcrisp76 which is the pen name of a collaboration of Tradermare, LanYap and Kristen Elizabeth. With the magic beta skills of FarDareIsMai2 and Wildcat76, how can you go wrong? Heroes and Hitmen: In summary, Cat and Bones agree to one last job, preventing a hit on a certain swexy vampire King and his human/fae/telepath wife. Watch the Viking watch another vamp sink his fangs into Sookie and then witness a lot of very sexy 'claiming' what is theirs afterwards. When you recover, and bear in mind I became pregnant reading it, try Wife Swap Also NH/SVM , one chapter in so far and very nawty and fun already....but what do you think it's going to be about? *winks* -- Alison @ Northman Maille
In the Dead of the Night by Pforte
E&S rated M by Pforte. I have read this 5 chapter fic a few times now and I always enjoy it. Fangtasia has received threats and is under attack, Pam is dispatched to ask Sookie to spend a few nights in the club listening out for those responsible, which of course, puts her in the path of a certain tall, swexy vampire called Eric... -- Alison at Northman Maille
Not From Here by Roux Roux (TrueBlood)
This is a little out there from the usual fics, Sookie and Eric get sucked through a portal into another world. It's reminiscent of the series where Angel and Co. go to Lorne's home world (for anyone who ever watched Angel it was probably the best series out of the 5) but there are enough differences to make it entertaining rather than repetitive.
The original characters and different species the author has come up with are fab and updates are very regular so far. If you're looking for something that doesn't have Sookie leaving Bill and falling into Eric's arms immediately this might quench your thirst a little. -- Janofarc
Runway by Suki59
I like stories based on the feel of the characters. Eric is sexy, smart but totally enamored of Sookie in this story. Sookie is hard working, a bit insecure, and unfortunately prone to running. I fear that after their initial difficulties in getting together more trouble is ahead but I love the playful, sweet, hot way they are together. -- Northwoman
Shallow Grave by DCWriter16
By DCWriter16, one of my favourite authors. E/S: Only one chapter but a fantastic coffee/tea break read! Sookie has a run with the lovely Fellowship of the Sun which results in some Sheriff Northman retaliation. You'll love it! -- Alison at NorthmanMaille
Tense & Release by Yogagal
As a yoga enthusiast, this story really does it for me. Eric is a bar owner, who throws his back out on the job. He's told to take yoga classes to help with the pain. Sookie is a sexy yogi who teaches him the benefits of a good workout. Chemestry develops and then some hot lemons. Oh, it's goooood -- Lubadub
The Sequel by Sarita.Alex
"The Sequel" is the follow up story to "The Heights" by sarita.alex (go read that first!!!). "The Heights" began as a one-shot in the Poppin' Cherries contest for newbie writers, and sarita.alex's first story was the 2nd place Judge's Selection winner. These stories take you from small-town Maine to big-time Hollywood with lots of Eric/Sookie angst and miscommunications in between. Eric and Sookie may have gotten their HEA in "The Heights" but can they hold onto it in "The Sequel?" Warning: If you don't like angst, this is not for you. (ahem *clears throat* LindsayK/@scribeninja) -- tvgirl.nicole
Understanding by Pixiegiggles (True Blood)
This is the first True Blood fic I've read and it's written by the creator of the FStop. She once told me that this is the fic that she's most proud of and I can see why. In this thoughtful and beautiful piece, Pixiegiggles puts some context around one of the most memorable scenes of Season Two, Godric meeting the sun. -- Sapfirerose

For you remember, brothers, our labor and toil: we worked night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, while we proclaimed to you the gospel of God. You are witnesses, and God also, how holy and righteous and blameless was our conduct toward you believers. For you know how, like a father with his children, we exhorted each one of you and encouraged you and charged you to walk in a manner worthy of God, who calls you into his own kingdom and glory.1 Thessalonians 2:9-12
To this end we always pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling and may fulfill every resolve for good and every work of faith by his power, so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.2 Thessalonians 1:11-12

Historic Foreign Bonds of China.
The bond illustrated is a £20 bond issued by the Russian-Asiatic Bank1 but is distinguished by having a blue coloured stamp on the top of the bond. This stamp is often referred to as the "Nanking Stamp" as it makes a declaration on behalf of the Ministry of Finance in Nanking. The quality of the stamp is very poor and the text is difficult to read as the blue coloured ink is almost illegible against the green coloured background of the bond. The text of the "Nanking Stamp" is as follows:
Owing to provisions for payments of coupons 19 to 27 having been tied up through the liquidation of the Russo-Asiatic Bank, coupons 19 to 27 inclusive of this bond are temporarily not cashable. Coupons from 28 onwards are cashable as usual. Arrangements for settlement of coupons 19 to 27 will be made later, when bond-holders will be duly informed.
MINISTRY OF FINANCE NANKING, March 15th 1930

Odd Year of Blogging Ahead
Here it comes...2013; an odd blogging year is almost here. The past three writing years focused on three themes -- faith, hope and love. If those three elements are the bricks of this cyber-blog, then the mortar binding them together will be a one year supply of perseverance.
Perseverance has nothing to do with falling down; it has everything to do with getting back up. I promise to serve you a blog story for breakfast every morning at 8:08 AM, Pacific Time, made from my own personal cook book. My recipes borrow heavily from ancient words of wisdom. When I hear the referee counting to ten after a major blow, my Bible becomes my coach at the corner of the ring and the word of God summons me to rise just as Jesus did after every fall.
Here's an appetizer to savor. Consider it a sample of what I will be serving every day in 2013...
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints. ~ Ephesians 6:10-18

Well, I survived my 3 hour clinic appointment: a PFT (pulmonary function test), two separate blood draws (yep, that didn't work out so well), visit with endocrinologist, visit with study coordinator (didn't qualify for any), a bone density scan, and visit with CF doc. Whew! My FEV1 (forced expiratory volume in one second) was 31% which wasn't bad but wasn't good. I didn't technically lose any ground but I'm also still on 60 mg of prednisone so I was hoping for a higher score with 'roids on board. Guess not.
Gratefully, Dr. S thought I sounded MUCH better than the day I was admitted and agreed the IV's could cease and desist. I didn't even have to lobby too hard. So this morning I finished my last dose and pulled the needle. It always feels amazing to get the dressing off and be able to shower without plastic wrap and a mile of incredibly sticky tape. I get to start on oral Zyvox tomorrow for the MRSA control so there is no rest for the yeast control efforts but oh well. If anyone has found anything to be effective in that department, I'd love any new ideas to try.
Yesterday I brought along my meds hoping that I'd actually be home before I needed to start them however. But by the time I was done with the appointment, I was already an hour behind. So I zipped out to my Beetle and began to set up an IV drip line. Yep, using my best sterile technique efforts and a mangled wire hanger, I managed to turn my VW into a mobile medicine delivery system. I was so proud. Too proud.
It was already after 4 and I hadn't had any food since breakfast. Should have thought of that before starting the IV, right? Well, I decided maybe I could do a drive-thru and not have to walk into a food establishment holding a deranged metal hanger above my head. Yeah, good plan. So I'm off down the road to Good Times for a burger and Spoonbender. I am now in a huge time crunch. But I decide at this point to sit in the parking lot and eat to be less of a traffic hazard; since yes, now I'm officially in the time of day to be a part of the Denver rush hour traffic scene. Not for the faint of heart let alone hands full of food and one eye on a slow and steady drip.
I must make mention here that I am also not in my preferred driving mode which is preferably above the steering wheel. In order to get enough gravity distance to get a steady drip, I had to ratchet down the seat to a depth I didn't know it even possessed. I looked like one of those scary little old ladies who can barely see over the dashboard. Yikes.
I'm on the road again trying to decide which of two possible routes would take the least amount of time and which merge did I want to sit in when I thought to take a look at my gas tank. Oh joy. I am one blip above my red bar of doom. When my car beeps a warning at the top of the red bar, my gas tank level drops like a rock. Well, now I have two choices: I can either stop at the next available station and figure out how to pump gas while doing my keep-hanger-above-head act, or I can test my luck and pray that I-25 is not a parking lot and I can get through the worst of the heavy traffic before I have to stop to change out the IV for round two at another gas station. I opt for plan b--go for it.
I must mention here that my little Vortex blue Beetle has been having a couple of issues lately, one of those problems being the blinker system. The blinkers are totally possessed. They will blink once or twice then either stop outright or do this Tourette-like stutter and then go bonkers. Usually it makes me giggle but its not exactly what you want blinkers to be doing while attempting numerous lane changes at high speed with bumper to bumper traffic.
At this point, my situation feels rather ridiculous--I'm kinda laughing on the inside but I'm also wiping sweaty palms on my pants from the stress. I'm doing drugs, looking like a low rider, being barely able to see out, having not enough gas, signaling like a spaz. Do I get street cred for this?
Happy to report I was actually near an exit about half-way home from Denver when my low gas signal buzzed and my drip came to a close. Couldn't have planned it better if I had tried (I guess I actually did try, didn't I?) Set up my second IV which was a nice, discreet pressurized ball. Filled the tank. Made it home with ten minutes to spare before my next meeting. Gotta love it.

Drop what you're doing and hit the drive-thru with me? Ask them out "by accident." Text them "What are you up to tonight? " When they explain, say, "JK, how could I forget you?!? A laid-back joke ("Please don't tell me I have something in my teeth!
Example: When a cutie you're talking to first tells you their name, say, "What? Plus, if you make someone laugh, you're totally in,17. " Slip it into their pocket — it's a million times cuter than a text.27. Text, "You should wear that blue shirt tonight — it makes your eyes look amazing :)"28. Here's how: The first time a new crush texts you, write back, "Who is this? Go in for a kiss at the end of the night — but then turn your head and whisper you had a nice time instead.31. It will take them by surprise and make them smile.33. When you notice someone checking you out, let them know you're onto them and you'll ooze confidence. Picture-text them a movie poster: And say, "4 PM show — wanna go? Then hand it back to them and joke, "This just seemed more 'you.'" It's a funny way to keep up your flirty banter.
Knowing you can pull it out anytime means you'll never have an awkward pause in conversation. Your crush will catch your scent when you lean in for a hug.21. Like when you "accidentally" throw your Frisbee toward cuties in the park, an exaggerated apology lets them know you're flirting on purpose (and in on the joke). Leave this Instagram comment: "This pic is hilarious. " After they respond, send this DM: "You should tell me in person. Pass a handwritten note at a party that says, "Just saying hi! Send a quick flirty text a minute after you trade numbers. Change the wallpaper on their phone to one of the cheesiest preset pictures — the sillier the better.
Then break eye contact just long enough to glance down at their lips.
Keep chapstick in your bag and swipe it on when you're sitting in class with your crush.

text: Recently, Hulk Hogan sat down with sports commentator Michael Schiavello of the popular The Voice Versus series on HDNet. While I have not gotten the chance to watch the interview myself, I understand it's a pretty good one. The whole thing runs an hour, and he apparently talks about his relationships with Randy Savage, Andre the Giant, The Ultimate Warrior, and others. From what I've read, the show is kind of polarizing – there's a good deal of people who claim Hogan lies more than a few times during the interview, while others have no problem with what he had to say, leading to obvious dissension between the two camps in the internet wrestling community. I can't pass judgement until I view the whole thing, but as a longtime Hogan detractor, I have a suspicion that I'll end up on the infuriated side of the fence. At any rate, part one is posted here, and the subsequent parts are linked to at the end. If anybody's already seen it, or if you watch it here, please, let me know what you think.

And now for a quick study of families in dramas. Indeed, I'm writing a comedy, but I want my screen family to capture the true ingredients and textures of a family. So here are a few films that excel in that department.
1. Ordinary People (Robert Redford, 1980)
This film deals beautifully and sensitively with a family who lost her eldest son and hasn't rehabilitated since: a guilt eaten brother, a mother who can't love her only living son, and a father who desperately tries to keep the family together.
Not that we haven't seen cold, abusive or neglecting mothers at the movies before, but this mother seems to be different. She's not the cliché of a self-absorbed retired from the show-biz mom ("September", "Short Cuts", "Postcards from the Edge"), nor is she a woman who's not satisfied with family life, and decides to look for excitements outside. Beth (Mary Tyler Moore) is a woman who simply can't (or won't) adapt to the tragedy and the changes her family has gone through, and can't find compassion for her son and her husband. She wants a family, but she wants the family she had.
Also, there's something about Donald Satherland as a father that brings me to tears – not only in this movie, but even in "Pride & Prejudice" (my secret is out now).
2. You Can Count on Me (Kenneth Lonergan, 2000)
This is the film that made me love Laura Linney and Mark Ruffalo. What's special about "You Can Count on Me" is that it does a defamiliarization of a brother-sister relationship, presenting them like a turbulent lovers' relationship. For Samantha (Linney), reuniting with her brother Terry (Ruffalo) is much more emotional than any other relationship she has with men at the same time (an old flame who asks her to marry him, and a married boss she an affair with). I think it's a brilliant way to tackle a siblings' relationship.
3. The Squid and the Whale (Noah Baumbach, 2005)
Here's another movie with Laura Linney. "The Squid" is rather funny, but in a brutal way. It's about a Brooklyn family, back in the 80'. The parents (Linney and Jeff Daniels), both writers, get a divorce, and their 2 boys get dragged between the two homes, witnessing their parents' weakest and most selfish moments. It's a mocking and painfully realistic portrait of neurotic intellectual parents, and the pain and heartaches they bring on their kids. I love the dialogues, and the absurd and unfortunate situations this family brings on itself.

HANOI, May 16. /TASS/. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) appreciates Russia's contribution to developing cooperation in the region, Vietnam's Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc said in an exclusive interview with TASS on Monday.
"Looking back at 20 years passed since establishing relations of dialog partnership of the Association with Russia, it can be said that we have seen how this cooperation developed deeply and in a complex way in many areas," said Phuc, who will pay an official visit to Russia on May 16-20 and head Vietnam's delegation at the Russia-ASEAN anniversary summit in Sochi.
All ASEAN countries note Russia's constructive contribution to the activity of cooperation mechanisms created under the auspices of the Association: the East Asia Summits, the ASEAN regional forum on security and the ASEAN defense ministers' meeting with dialog partners.
"ASEAN highly values Russia's support of central role of the Association in regional structures responsible for countering traditional and non-traditional challenges to security, including terrorism, transnational crime, climate change, disasters and their consequences, rescue operations and maritime security," he said.
Now the sides should step up cooperation in a number of particular areas and strengthen ties in the areas of interest for ASEAN in which Russia has advantages - in science and technologies, energy, responding to security threats, first of all ensuring maritime security, combating terrorism and transnational crime and the fight against consequences of climate change, Phuc said.
"ASEAN expects Russia's support in implementing tasks defined by existing program documents of the Association - "ASEAN: Vision 2025," "ASEAN Interconnection Master Plan" and "Initiative for ASEAN Integration," he stressed.
The Russia-ASEAN summit will be held in Sochi on May 19-20 and will become the biggest international event in Russia in 2016. The summit will be held under the slogan "Towards Strategic Partnership for the Sake of the Common Good."
The summit is expected to adopt a declaration that will lay the basis for an action plan of Russia-ASEAN cooperation in the political, economic and cultural spheres, as well as in the sphere of security.
Russia has been a dialog partner of ASEAN since July 1996. Similar partnership summits are normally held on the territory of member-states and the choice of Sochi as venue for the Russia-ASEAN summit on the partnership's 20th anniversary is symbolic.

Make Your Wedding Easy With These Tips
The majority of weddings have months of planning behind them. When it comes to planning yours, make it extra special by following the tips from the article below.
The earlier you buy things for your wedding and plan things out the cheaper they should be. You can even find great deals online so be sure to shop around. In fact I spent $300 in total, $100 for the gown itself, and only another $200 for the tailoring. Make sure the additional costs are allowed for in the budget.
Include elements that tell about you, your spouse and the relationship. Pick a wedding theme that tells the story of your relationship.
The pictures that are taken at your wedding are very important as you will look at these for the rest of your life. Hire a professional. Don't be shy on spending money in this area as they can document this magical day to perfection.
Booking a venue for your wedding can be extremely expensive. For example, a large backyard could be the perfect setting, and you will save a lot of money this way. Your only cost will be hiring someone who can come in before the wedding to set up and stay after to clean.
Look at samples of past work before hiring a makeup artist. Are you impressed with their style? It is critically important that you know they can meet your needs. You don't want to wait till the last minute only to find out that you are not pleased with the makeup job they will be doing.
A multi-tiered wedding cake can set you back well over a thousand dollars. You can save money by serving cupcakes, small tarts, or cake pops. These treats are not only affordable and convenient, but you can do many things with them. Guests can serve themselves or even take one home as a party favor of sorts.
If you invite people to an exotic destination wedding, they will likely want to stay for part of your honeymoon time as well, since they are already there. This will help with the monetary aspect of your trip. Not only do they get to share in your special time, they can create their own memories as well.
A nice present to give to your wedding guests at a wedding in a different town is a gift basket full of vacation items that you can have sent to their room. Some useful items to include might be tourist information, sun hats, sunglasses, disposable cameras, maps of the area, sunscreen, and so on. You could also include flyers and coupons for local restaurants.
See that the lighting at the reception venue has the ability to be dimmed. This may seem like a minor factor, but many couples like dimming the lights for a first dance, and switching to brighter lights for the remainder of the event. Before committing to a venue, you will want to ask about this option.
As you decide the seating arrangements for your receptions, strive to have an even number of individuals at each table. Another thing to consider when arranging your table seating is the age of the people at the table. Try to group the same aged people at each table.
A fun idea is to invite your family and friends on a cruise for your wedding. Your honeymoon will start right after the ceremony. Some cruises will offer discounts if you are getting married.
If a friend of yours has something you want to wear simply as them. By doing this, you can get the look that you want and add a special touch to your wedding.
Make sure you think of every detail, from the entertainment to the food. Make everyone feel warm and welcome on your wedding day.
Do your homework before meeting your wedding planner. Take a tip from stylists and fashion designers. Create a look book and/or a mood board of inspirational tidbits, imagery and fabric swatches that will help you envision the big day. Anything that is special to you, such as items from magazines, can be used to convey your ideas to the planner.
If you do not want a big wedding, Vegas may be for you. However, if you would like a more traditional wedding, read the advice provided in this article for the wedding of your dreams.
Deciding On Vital Issues For Wedding Catering Menu
Ask a friend if you can wear something of theirs on your wedding day. Not only does borrowing jewelry help you perfect your look without spending extra money, but your friend will be honored to contribute to your appearance on your wedding day.

To many Israelis and their supporters, this is nonsense. Far from being motivated by a desire to end the occupation, Palestinians are, according to this argument, truly driven by a continuing failure to come to terms with the legitimacy of a Jewish state in the Middle East. Many Israelis note, for instance, that violence against Jews predated not only the occupation of the West Bank, which began after the 1967 Six-Day War, but even prior to the establishment of Israel in 1948. They further note that Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip , the dismantling of all settlements there and the relocation of thousands of Israeli settlers did not bring an end to violence emerging from the coastal territory and aimed at Israeli population centers. These Israelis further argue that violence against Israeli civilians is not intended to bring about peaceful coexistence, citing as evidence Hamas' longstanding refusal to recognize Israel's legitimacy and right to exist. Israeli leaders have routinely placed blame for terrorist activity on the Palestinian leadership, which it accuses of inciting violence against civilians by praising terrorists and demonizing Israelis in official media and educational materials. In 2016, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that terrorist attacks "don't come because of [Palestinian] despair and the frustration over the inability to build. They come because of [Palestinian] despair and the frustration over inability to destroy." Checking bags at the entrance of a Tel Aviv mall. (Anthony Baratier/Wikimedia) Over the years, Israel has developed a broad range of counterterrorism strategies that are often regarded as the best in the world. Following the spate of airplane hijackings in the late 1960s, Israel implemented stringent aviation security protocols that successfully brought the practice to a halt. Israel's Ben Gurion Airport employs multiple rings of security, beginning with perimeter inspections of entering vehicles by armed guards and including sophisticated screening technologies for people and baggage. Security personnel attempt to identify potential attackers for more extensive screening based on observed behavior or how they respond in an interview with a security officer, something to which all passengers are subjected. Though Israeli officials tend not to discuss such security measures, the process is widely understood to focus greater scrutiny on Arab and Muslim passengers, a practice that has drawn protests from civil rights groups. Similar methods are employed by El Al security personnel at airports around the world. Israel's counterterrorism strategy has both offensive and defensive components. Israeli intelligence and security agencies continually act to undermine terrorist groups, remove key terrorist figures through arrests and targeted killings, and foil emerging plots. Defensively, Israel has employed a number of controversial — some say counterproductive — measures, including the use of traffic checkpoints and the construction of a miles-long security barrier in the West Bank. On the home front, the Iron Dome missile defense system has proven extremely effective at taking out rockets fired at Israeli population centers. Meanwhile, Israel has successfully inculcated a culture of preparedness and caution that extends into virtually every aspect of civilian life. Nearly every public gathering place is protected by a guard or a metal detector — and often both. Bomb squads are routinely summoned when unattended items are spotted — known in Hebrew as a "hefetz hashud," or suspicious object. Are acts of terror ever committed by Jews? Yes. Prior to Israel's establishment, a number of Jewish militias carried out attacks that resulted in civilian deaths. Though much of the violence was targeted at British military personnel, many civilians died in those attacks. Palestinian Arabs were also directly targeted in reprisal attacks. Among the most notorious acts of Jewish terrorism in pre-state Israel was the bombing in 1946 of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem, where British authorities then ruling the area had their headquarters.

A Helpful A-z On Rational Strategies Of Wedding Catering Menu
Walking into a wine store sometimes intimidates novices since there is such a huge selection. Red or white? Tart or fruity? It can be hard to choose the right one. Read this article to get help selecting the best wine for your night.
Reds and whites must be served in correct glassware. White wines need a more narrow glass, so that warm air cannot readily reach the wine's surface. Use larger glasses for red wines. This keeps the wine warm, which can help elicit more flavor.
Play around with the wines you buy. New wine tasting is a great way for you to learn about other countries and wines. You can try a wine that the shop owner recommends, or choose one from a different region, or use the information given by the talking card in the wine store. You can always locate a new favorite!
A good thing for people to remember if you like wine is to go to the wine country and look around. Wine country is beautiful and a great place to learn about wine and how exactly it is made.
When you order wine while dining at a restaurant, venture out of your comfort zone. To make an impression on your dinner guests, pick wines they may not be familiar with. It will present a surprise to your guests.
If you want to be a true wine connoisseur, you need to know how to remove the label from a wine bottle. The easiest way to put the bottle inside an oven until it's hot. Using mitts, carefully peel it from a corner.
If wine is your thing, make sure you make the time to visit wine country. Visiting the vineyards allows you to see the grapes, talk to the wine makers and experience your favorite flavors in a brand new way. Touring a vineyard can also expand your knowledge of wine and wine making. You can relax with your favorite drink and learn a lot in the process!
White wines should be drunk within the first couple of years they are out. The only exception is Chardonnay. This is due to the fact that oak isn't usually used when making white tines. However, wines that are darker in hue do involve oak in their production process.
Do not purchase a huge amount of wine that has currently caught your fancy. You might want to fill your cellar, but you may not like the same wines in the future. Therefore, you may enjoy a particular wine right now, but it is possible that you might not later. This leads to wasting money and storage space if you keep a wine you will not drink.
Change which wines you buy. Don't be afraid to mix things up a bit; over time, a lack of variation becomes dull and predictable. Try a new wine from a new region or a different type than you are used to. You may save some money as a result.
The Internet teems with information about the different sorts of wine, including the years, tastes, and those who sell it. Therefore, if you discover a website with pages and pages of wine knowledge, print them out and take them with you while wine shopping so that you can make the best decision. Do your homework, get opinions from employees, and come home with the best possible bottle.
As you have seen, it can seem overwhelming when you are faced with the many varieties of wine to choose from. Hopefully, this article had made it easier for you to navigate the world of wine. Use the advice shared here with you the next time you're at the wine store, and you'll be able to make purchases more easily.

Updated Answers On Identifying Core Elements Of Wedding Catering Menu
If it's about time to start planning your wedding, then you have many questions for sure. Wedding planning should be fun, so don't let it stress you out. That's why the suggestions in this article can help you to avoid any worry.
Bear in mind the cost of the alcohol that you will be serving at your wedding, and try to find one that is cost efficient. Open bars can be expensive and can be more so if they're open a long time. If holding the wedding at an outside venue, they may have alcohol serving options available that can control costs.
Internet bridal shops have wedding dresses for bargain basement prices, but make sure to order well in advance so that you can get your dress altered before the big day. Even though a gown can be fairly cheap, having it altered to fit your perfectly can sometimes be more costly. Be sure to work the additional cost for alterations into your overall budget.
Select ethnic catering for a truly memorable event. This will add to the specialness and memories of your reception. Your wedding dinner can be very memorable when it includes interesting variety.
Don't forget about transportation! Try to have limos and taxis available for those who do not have a ride to take them back to their hotel at the end of the night. Also, this is beneficial for people who have consumed alcohol during the wedding.
If you are inviting your family members to your wedding at an exotic location, wee if they want to stay for the honeymoon as well! It's a great way to get a group discount and they can share in the special memories you are going to make at your chosen destination. This can help them have a memorable day and a great vacation.
For a destination wedding, one wonderful present for your guests is a basket brimming with vacation goodies delivered to each room. The basket should contain useful items such as a map, sunglasses, disposable cameras and a hat. Also make sure you include a local restaurant guide that makes it simple for them to grab a bite to eat.
Even if you're sure of the dress you want and have bought it, keep it in the bridal shop prior to getting married. Having it inside of a closet could cause stains or wrinkles. Keeping it safely at the shop will ensure that it is in pristine condition and ready for your wedding day.
If you want a relative or friend to officiate the wedding, they can get ordained online. Your ceremony will be less formal, and you will save money. Before you do this, check with your city or town to make sure they recognize online ordinations.
Silk flowers can be a wise and beautiful choice, rather than choosing fresh flowers, which can be more expensive and more likely to have potential problems. You can buy silk flowers well in advance to avoid the stress of getting fresh flowers a few days before the wedding.
A nice menu combining contemporary with fusion dishes may be just what you need. Make the meal more original with an ethnic dessert or traditional drinks.
Flowers that are in season where you live are unlikely to be available, or easy to find in wedding destination locations. Speak to a florist in the same location as the wedding and reception venues to ascertain what flowers are available to you.
Make sure your caterer knows you desire an outdoor wedding reception. Some foods may spoil quickly on hot days, and other dishes may not fare well in strong wind. A pretty cover is recommended for foods at outdoor weddings, to keep them fresh and free of debris or bugs. If needed, you can keep beverages cool in a small fridge.
When you start planning your wedding, begin by making a list of the things you want in order of importance. For some people, the flowers top the list while others consider the venue or the cake more important than a guest list. By having a plan of what is most important to you, you can set aside funding for each item and ensure you get the wedding of your dreams.
Don't forget the gift registry, which is a wedding tradition. Your guests will appreciate knowing that a gift is not a requirement. Make sure they have varied choices for gifts and varied prices. People should feel comfortable giving you what they can afford bringing.
Add drama to your floral arrangements by using different elements of varying heights. Make use of taller vases for long stem flowers with compact heads. Place shorter vases with shorter and plumper flowers around the tall vases. The tall flowers should be in dark colors, and the short flowers should be light.
If dancing isn't your forte, you should prepare yourself for the first dance by donning a long skirt and taking a few practice runs around the living room. Be sure to practice dancing with your soon-to-be husband, so that he can get used to your long skirt, too! Your husband might feel clumsy because of the size or puffiness of your dress.
Plan group fun times on your special day. This keeps your family and friends from just standing around killing time and getting bored. The activities that you can incorporate into your wedding day can range from simple games, to contests, to door prizes. Everyone will more easily remember your wedding when they have fun and get to socially interact and mingle.
Grooms should ensure that the tuxedo is tailored to fit perfectly. Before making a final decision on your tuxedo, ask others for their opinion. You want to be looking your absolute best at your wedding, keep that in mind as you think about what tuxedo you want to be wearing.
Planning a wedding shouldn't cause you to lose your mind. You should enjoy everything leading up to the wedding and then get on with enjoying your marriage.

As Seen In...Hell Gate
Built in 1917 by Othmar Ammann, and engineer Gustave Lindenthal, the bridge over Hell Gate is more properly called the New York Connecting Railroad Bridge.
Ammann was also the builder of The George Washington, The Triborough, The Throgs Neck, The Bronx Whitestone, and one of my personal favorites, The Verrazano Narrows Bridge.
Le Corbusier once called Hell's Gate the most beautiful bridge in the world.
I love the view of this bridge from the bike path on the Triborough - I just wish the stairwell leading to the path on the Bronx end didn't stink so much of shit.

Motorsports fans can get their adrenaline fix Saturday and Sunday as Monster Jam brings high-powered truck racing to the Coast Coliseum in Biloxi.
Trucks vying for the Biloxi championship will be Grave Digger, Midnight Rider, Northern Nightmare, Nitro Menace, Jailbird, Wild Thang, Instigator and Backdraft.
The trucks weigh 10,000 pounds or more and sit atop 66-inch tires. They are built for powerful short bursts of speed but can go up to 100 mph. They also can soar up to 35 feet high and to distances of 130 feet.
Tom Herzog, the driver of Midnight Rider, which is powered by a big-block Chevy that's capable of 1,600 horsepower, put more than $100,000 into the truck, including upgrades to make it faster and stronger.
"We put a bigger motor in her this year to be more competitive," he said. "New shock (absorber) technology comes out that you can land softer, so you can jump higher and not take a beating; and it won't rebound as much, so it will make you quicker through the racing part."
Herzog grew up in the rural farming community of Red Bud, Illinois.
"I always had an interest in motorsports," he said, "whether it be NASCAR or drag racing or racing go-karts even."
His introduction to monster trucks came about when he began building the trucks with a partner.
"I wanted to get out on the road and travel, and I wanted my own truck," he said. "So over about a 4 1/2 , five-year period, I just was saving money building a truck. Once the truck got completed, I just knew that I needed to quit the day job and become self-employed and just run the truck."
When he's behind the wheel of Midnight Rider, Herzog is about 12 feet off the ground. He said it feels like driving a regular car, but it is far more exciting.
"You get used to being that high, and it's limited visibility, so your perspective changes," he said. "The adrenaline rush is amazing. In the middle of the show the fans get pumped up and start cheering, and that just gets your adrenaline up even more. I'll get out and my hands are shaking from the adrenaline."
Show times are 1 and 7 p.m. Saturday and 1 p.m. Sunday. Pit parties will give fans a chance to meet the drivers and will be held both days from 10:30 a.m. to noon.
Tickets start at $15 and are available through Monsterjam.com or Ticketmaster.com.

Worthwhile investment.
The five bucks or so that I spent on the yarn to make my stripy toque and scarf are probably the best $5 I have spent in ages. Not only did they keep me busy during various times (bus rides, hospital stays) but they look fabulous and I wear them ALL THE TIME.

oh yes. I love the knitting. Loves it!
Am very sad that I'm broke. On the upside, when I was still footloose and fancy free, I bought way more yarn than I need, so my knitting fancy should be okay until at least January...

Ubuntu tends to come in three basic flavors, reflecting only a different desktop: Kubuntu features the KDE desktop, Ubuntu features Gnome, and Xubuntu the XFCE desktop. I listed these in order of resources required to run them. KDE is full of eye candy and most similar to Windows. Gnome is middle of the road but I just don't like it. XFCE takes the least amount of resources, thus can run on the widest range of hardware. And if you use XFCE on current hardware, it's that much faster. While there are even lighter distributions (distros), these are the three main ones.
History shows that the Ubuntus are solid, reliable distros, so much so, in fact, that you can generally install the release candidate early, without having to worry about what it will do to your computer.
DISCLAIMER: as Ubuntu warns, do not upgrade production machines early.
I have been running Xubuntu 10.4 since it came out and I'm quite satisfied. I decided to upgrade a machine to 11.04 (Nutty Nincompoop) to see what would happen. In case you have been following the news about the early releases of Nutty, you know there's a huge controversy over the new Unity desktop. There is even grumbling over the new Gnome desktop. Understand that regardless of desktop choice, the underlying bits are the same. You can choose to run whatever desktop you like - you're not married to only what comes `in the box'.
My upgrade process took about an hour but your time will vary because of download and processor speeds. Since I ran an upgrade, I did not have to deal with Unity, it simply booted right into XFCE from where it left off. As for Unity, I used it in the netbook-optimized Ubuntu distro and hated it immediately. It struck me as training wheels that weren't necessarily required but possibly would have helped rank beginners.
If you are upgrading plain old Ubuntu (Gnome), you'll boot into Unity first, then you can switch to Gnome.
If you have a separate Home partition, make sure there is at least 2g remaining on the OS partition if you're doing an upgrade. If you have way too little, it will warn you, but it never hurts to have too much.
I dumped Unity and went with standard Xubuntu on the netbook and never looked back. It's supposed to be more efficient in terms of the screen but I found no advantage there either. Unity seems like one of those times when someone had a `good idea' and it mistakenly made it into the product's final release. In fact, no one I know has nice things to say about Unity. But that's just my opinion: use it and decide for yourself.
You may well ask what it's like.
We just did.
And well you may. When it came up for the first time, I noticed just about no difference at all from my former XFCE setup. It installed the Orage clock/calendar in a panel, which I removed. That's about the only noticeable difference thus far. Again, your mileage will vary with upgrade and desktop, but only with the express written consent of the National Women's Volleyball League.
I was so tickled that I upgraded another machine. Again, remember that this is pre-release by a few days and don't do this to any important machines. That said, there are no show-stoppers at all. Everything works as it is supposed to. There is a lot more included in Settings, which XFCE desperately needed.
Thus far I have not been able to locate a menu editor. This is not a total surprise, as XFCE has had no practical way to alter menus in quite a while (that didn't involve dual degrees in quantum physics and string theory).
Thus far, the upgrade has gone the way most prior upgrades have gone: quickly, quietly, without grief, and largely not too different from its predecessor.
I'll have more as I use it more.
I just updated a dual-monitor system and was very pleasantly surprised to discover that not only did Xubuntu detect the dual monitors, it had a few small panel settings to make things easier. It has settings for transparency (which I will never use) and allows the panel to span more than one monitor. Little things like this are welcome additions.
Not sure why it felt the need to remove Tellico, my favorite video collection manager, but I reinstalled it after.
I also discovered Broadcast Messaging, which is something that escaped me at first. After a brief search, I discovered this is a setting to give social network status messages when you log into the computer.
Being the absolute head of the anti-social network, I found no use for this at all, even though it was enabled. The day I need my computer to let gobs of people know I have logged in is the day I have stopped using the computer.
Your mileage, of course, will vary.
