Less a memoir, more a work of art.,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Tale of Love and Darkness (Hardcover)
This wide ranging book is describes as a memoir, but it is more a poetic elegy to the birth of Israel and one man's development into a writer. Amos Oz charts the forces of love and darkness that shape the land of Israel and his own character.
He delves deep back into his family ancestry, back to his grandfathers and grandmothers and back to the old folklore and Jewish customs of prewar Eastern Europe. He describes the ambivalent nature of Jewish relations with the Slavic people in Poland, Czechoslovakia and Russia and the growth of the Zionist ideal among the Ashkenazi Jews. Oz relates the story of the escape of both sets of grandparents to Palestine, so avoiding the fate of his other relatives such as his cousin Daniel, the same age as the writer. The dark forests of Russian folklore were the scene of many Nazi atrocities particularly in the Ukraine, from where his mother's family originated.
The central figures in the book are his parents and himself as a precocious child surrounded by intellectual academics such as Uncle Joseph and many other colourful friends and grandparents, as they build new lives in the Jewish homeland. The young Amos has many encounters in wartorn Jerusalem with other characters including Arab children and adults. The small boy fantasizes about playing wargames with the unpopular British, who in 1947 were controlling Palestine. When the war of Independence comes in 1948 and the British leave, the sense of danger and vulnerability are well documented.
And yet the central heart of the book is personal tragedy, as Oz heartrendingly describes the breakdown of his mother and his father's doomed efforts to save her. His parents come across as two well meaning, loving people interested passionately in words and literature. His father is however disappointed in his career and seeks to fill in long family silences with words. The dark forces of disappointment,nostalgia and other unresolved issues overwhelm his mother and lead to her tragic suicide.
The book is a triumphant testimony to the creation of a young nation born in blood and surviving against all expectations. Oz survives too the fragility of his own childhood and the weight of parental hopes borne down upon his young shoulders. He finally realises his dream of joining a kibbutz by escaping from the cramped and ghost-ridden flat in Jerusalem. On Kibbutz Hulda he lives the life of an agricultural worker, becoming part of the new generation of Jewish pioneers. He also changes his European name to a Hebrew name. The love of words which he inherits from his parents proves his salvation and he becomes a writer of everyday events on the kibbutz and elsewhere.
In this fascinating book Oz reveals the ideas and the writers that influenced his early life and those ideas that he reacted against. He also describes encounters with the architects of the new Israel, who were responsible for the modern Israeli mentality.This is different to the mentality of his parents and grandparents, who were scarred by the years of loss and exile. He writes all this in a clear and elegant prose. This book will engage anyone who is interested in Israel and the Middle East, but can be read equally as one man's own remarkable story.

Anyone who did not attend the show Tuesday night at the Trotter missed a really fun event. The Second City troop were just so funny, clever, and entertaining. They made good use of local places and names in their skits and captured the crowd from the opening seconds.
The real highlight of the show was when the picked Kathryn Phillips from the audience as the "starlet" in one of their skits. Everyone assumed that she had been prepped and had rehearsed with them. She was a natural on-stage and didn''t miss a beat with those professional actors. She had the crowd in stitches throughout most of her time on stage. It was most poignant at the end of a high school prom skit when her "date" asked her if he could kiss her. Those closest to the stage could catch her eyes immediately dart towards her husband Doug with a look of concern on her face. She remained ever the lady and politely deflected her beau''s affections.
Thanks to the Arts Council members who did a terrific job of bringing a bit of the big city to Columbus.
My cheeks are still sore from laughing all night long.

Emirates Stadium
Finally we're back to the good stuff after another redundant international week. Arsenal limped into the break, and now they are crawling on the ground barely making it into the game Saturday with a 16 man squad. The international friendlies had a devastating effect on a majority of the Premier League teams, but Arsenal surely came off the worst.
Arsene talked about how he assumes he is going to lose players after each break. 'Before they go I know statistically you lose a player.
'So I am not frustrated because I know that is part of the game when they go on international duty.
'The only thing I believe is that it is a new start and that is the real start of the season because there is now no real interruptions anymore.'
Wenger is assured his team will bounce back from their current form. "I believe that this is a new start," he said. "In fact it is the real start of the season because there is now no interruptions anymore. It looks like to me there is a new championship starting."
"I think if you ask me how many games I think we can lose I would say zero," said the Frenchman. "I always start a season thinking you cannot lose a game, but we have lost two already and we are in a position where we have given ourselves a handicap.
I still think it is manageable to get back to the top. I know that there is not a lot of margin of error left but I still think we can do that."
According to Phil Jagielka, his side is looking to turn their season around too. "It`s 11 players against 11 players," said Jagielka. "We`re not like a young team that`s only just gone into the Premier League. We`ll know how to go about that game - the gaffer will have his tactics.
"We`ve got some fantastic players, some international players, some players that should be internationals in our team and I`m sure we`ll go down there and hopefully enjoy ourselves."
Where to start.....hmmm, well first off Gallas, Sagna, Djourou, and Bendtner are definitely out. Walcott will be rested, but Cesc and Robin will be ready to go despite both picking up injuries for their countries. Vela will not be ready to start, from his long trip back to England, but he will surely get his chance from the bench.
Unless Mikael Silvestre wrecks his car on his way to the Emirates Saturday, the former Manchester United man will make his first appearance for Arsenal. I've said it before and I'll say it again, it will no doubt be a strange feeling seeing him in the red and white of North London.
Some good news is that Abou Diaby will be back for the first time this season. The lanky Frenchman will probably not start, but Wenger assured us that he will feature at some point.
Possible Starting XI: Almunia, Eboue, Toure, Silvestre, Clichy, Denilson, Song, Cesc, Nasri, van Persie, Adebayor
Many people questioned Wenger's motives in bringing Mikael to Arsenal, but this is the exact situation that Arsene recruited him for. Wenger might of made some mistakes so far this year but this is a decision he got spot on.
After a impressive preformance in the reserves last week, I am sure that Silvestre will slot perfectly into the defense and make Arsene proud.
It's not only Arsenal that has the injury crisis in this match, as Everton have a sizable list as well. Lee Osman has a groin strain while Phil Neville, Segundo Castillo, and Anichebe have hamstring problems. Jagielka and Joseph Yobo are doubtful with the flu, and Tim Cahill is banned for his red card in the Merseyside derby.
Fellaini impressed scouts everywhere with his preformance against Liverpool in the Champions League qualifiers, and Everton were quick to snap him up. Having stared already in the Barclays Premier League, he will pose a problem for Arsenal's mixed up defense.
Robin van Persie is two goals shy of 50 for Arsenal. He usually scores in pairs so who's to say he doesn't reach the half century on Saturday.
Silvestre will be making his 250th Premier League appearance, and we all know who the last 249 were for. It will be interesting to see if Arsenal pays him any sort of tribute for this magnificent achievement, no matter what team it was for. Hopefully we do the classy thing, and recognizes this milestone.
Peter Walton is the head official. He has managed three EPL games this year handing out 7 yellows and 1 red.
Not sure what to think about this, I don't think we will lose though. I could see us winning by a 2 or 3 goal margin, but I can also see it being a hard fought 1-1 stalemate. I'll go with the positive result, 3-1 to the Arsenal. Adebayor to continue his good form from Togo and van Persie to grab a double, to make it 50 Arsenal goals for the young Dutchman. Lescott to score off a corner or set piece for Everton.

ATLANTA, GA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/03/12 -- During the busy holiday season, it's easy to forget about helping the environment. Yet, this season Call2Recycle®, a product stewardship organization managing the only no-cost battery and cell phone collection program in North America, makes it easier than ever to "drop and shop" by offering convenient on-site recycling collection points at many stores where consumers are already going for holiday purchases.
According to a new study by the Consumer Electronics Association, overall consumer holiday spending is expected to increase 11% this year, with spending on consumer electronics expected to account for nearly a third of all gift spending. Three in four (76 percent) of gift giving adults plan to purchase consumer electronic products as a gift this year.
This level of consumption means many old batteries and cell phones will be ready to be recycled. Major retailers such as RadioShack, The Home Depot, Staples, Best Buy, and Lowe's, all offer in-store collection, making it an easy task to incorporate into a holiday shopping trip.
"RadioShack is proud to offer our customers a convenient and responsible way to divert rechargeable batteries from the waste stream," said Jackie Kimberling, Vice President Distribution Support and Compliance Services at RadioShack Corp. "With nearly 4,500 convenient locations nationwide, it just takes a minute to drop off used spent rechargeable batteries and cell phones while shopping for holiday gifts." Through its partnership with Call2Recycle, RadioShack Corp and its dealer stores have collected over 6.4 million pounds of rechargeable batteries since 1996.
Last year Americans spent an average of 19 hours holiday shopping, and an additional three hours waiting in line, according to Consumer Reports. Many of these consumers likely spent time at a retailer with a take-back program: recent survey data reports that 80% of consumers have positive feelings about stores that offer such programs.* "By making it easy and convenient, we are dramatically expanding consumer participation in collection and recycling programs," says Carl Smith, CEO and president of Call2Recycle. "As more locations offer busy consumers ways to incorporate recycling into their regular shopping activity, the practice will become habit, contributing to a healthier environment."
Through its partnerships with retailers and communities, Call2Recycle continually works to enhance its collection network to provide consumers with various recycling options. Ninety-one percent of the U.S. population has access to a Call2Recycle battery collection location within ten miles of their residence.
Call2Recycle has developed some tips to help busy consumers check "recycling" off their holiday to-do list.
- Your "4th Bin" - set up a bin or bag (ideally near your front or back door) for your family to leave recyclables
- Sound the alarm - On your smartphone or computer, set up a regular reminder to gather up your rechargeable batteries to take to your local retailer
- Regularly clean out the junk drawer - On a regular basis, task a family member with going through the junk drawer for recyclables and other unused or old items
- Keep your errand list on hand at all times - This will help you prioritize stops; make one retail trip work harder
- Replace rechargeable batteries in bulk - If you have just dropped off six batteries for recycling, buy a dozen. You will likely save money and time as well as prevent family member complaints
Call2Recycle maintains a network of over 30,000 collection locations across North America providing a no-cost and convenient way to recycle cell phones and rechargeable batteries found in electronic products, such as laptop computers, tablets, digital cameras, cordless power tools and two-way radios. For more information and to find local drop-off locations, visit www.call2recycle.org.
About Call2Recycle®
Call2Recycle is the only free rechargeable battery and cell phone collection program in North America. Since 1996, Call2Recycle has diverted 70 million pounds of rechargeable batteries from the solid waste stream and established a network of 30,000 public collection sites. Advancing green business practices and environmental sustainability, Call2Recycle is the most active voice promoting eco-safe reclamation and recycling of rechargeable batteries and cell phones. It is the first program of its kind to receive the Responsible Recycling Practices Standard (R2) certification. Learn more at call2recycle.org or 877.723.1297.

Farmers told to start with basics to help environment
Relevant offers
A "think global, act local" approach to environmental management by dairy farmers could help improve their environmental footprint.
That meant thinking beyond their farm and adopting a catchment approach to environmental improvements, DairyNZ environmental policy manager Dr Mike Scarsbrook said at the industry organisation's Farmers' Forum at Mystery Creek near Hamilton.
"We want farmers to think that no matter how small it is, if I make improvements, that's going to collectively add up to quite a significant change."
Farmers knew they had to do something but often were unsure what they could do.
"Our message is, start with some really simple basic stuff."
The environment was one of several topics discussed by farmers, scientists and industry leaders at the two-day event.
Adopting a sustainable milk plan could help those farmers who did not know where to start, DairyNZ catchment engagement project manager Adrian Brocksopp said.
Brocksopp co-ordinates the Upper Waikato Sustainable Milk Project. This is the largest environmental good-practice project undertaken by the dairy industry and allowed for free, one-on-one advice and support to be delivered to the estimated 700 farms in the Upper Waikato Catchment.
Its aim was to reduce nutrient and sediment loads going into the Waikato River as well as improve water use efficiency on farm.
To date, 630 farmers in the catchment had committed to plans, 450 farmer have completed their plans and were using them as part of their management and 120 farms had completed some of the actions on their plan, he said.
Scarsbrook said they would like to expand the project to include the rest of the region.
"Our vision is that every farmer in the country has to work through a sustainable milk plan."
Hauraki Plains farmer Conall Buchanan agreed to a point.
He said there were small things that farmers could do to improve their footprint, including proper effluent management and fencing waterways.
However, there were no easy solutions for farmers.
"We're dealing with biological, ecological and environmental realities and there is no cartoon solution."
Buchanan was one of a group of farmers who spoke at a forum workshop on their perspectives of getting involved in the environmental work around improving catchments.
He said farmers offered huge value to environmental discussions.
"Farmers bring in a big-picture perspective that not all individuals in society have.
"We have to because we need to understand the whole system, not just the impact of one thing."
There was no longer any tolerance in the industry for poor environmental management, such as point source pollution of waterways.
"The days of farmers putting s... into the drain from the cowshed, they're history.
"I'm astounded when I hear that it happens."
The industry had to move towards recognising some of the tools that could mitigate or eliminate environmental effects.
Some of these tools, such as Overseer, were available to farmers, but others were still being developed.
The dairy industry was spending millions on further developing such tools.
Work by farmers was being done, Buchanan said.
As of November last year, Fonterra farmers alone had erected 20,400 kilometres of fencing to exclude stock from waterways.
Farmers had to lead the way on environmental issues, Economic Development Minister Steven Joyce told farmers at the forum.
"I think we do have to get the balance right between growth and the environment," he said.
"It's important that the dairy industry take a lead on that."
There was a middle band of New Zealanders who were, rightly in his opinion, concerned about water quality and wanted assurance it was being addressed.
Solutions could be found that would satisfy that middle ground, although "there are some people you will never make happy, and you shouldn't worry too much about them, and they are called the Greens".
"My strong view is that in most places you can achieve both productivity and growth ... I back our innovation."

The aim of this strategy is clear: to identify issues in the core postal market that have to be addressed at European level in order to facilitate the recognition of the postal sector as an essential component of the global economy.
To achieve this, the many factors challenging the postal sector, including globalisation, market liberalisation, competition, electronic substitution, the advancement of new technologies, and regional and national inequalities, should be taken into account.
All European postal stakeholders (postal services providers, consumer associations, postal industry associations, labour associations and e-retailers) are invited to express their views on the strategic/core issues at EU level that should be addressed in the ERGP mid-term strategy in the presence of ERGP members. The resulting document will cover the period 2017-2019.

Danish Open Ladies Cup - Electrifying action on day 3
by Joakim Hermansson on 23 Jun 2013
2013 Danish Open Ladies Cup Susanne Johansen
At the Danish Ladies Open Cup, the excitement was electric during Saturday's matches, first with a really tight conclusion of the round robin, and then the initial matches of the semi-finals. Just in time for the regatta dinner, race management stopped further racing for the day with both semi-finals tied 1-1.
'It means we will start it all again tomorrow' round robin winning home sailor Lotte Meldgaard Pedersen smiled, adding that 'the competition always gets better at the end of match racing regattas.'
As winner of the round robin she got the favour of choosing her semi-final opponent, picking Dutch rookie Merel Witteveen: 'We won one of our two round robin matches against her, and lost the other one just because of a couple of big mistakes. I think they've been the most unstable in the round-robin' Lotte explains her choice.
Unranked wildcard Witteveen was, not surprisingly, very happy to reach the semi-finals, still determined to continue her performance in the semis: 'We will continue focusing on every single race, not thinking of the end result. We've already performed a lot better than expected, so let's see how far we can get' she says. 'We lost the first semi but recovered in the second when we focused on what was happening outside our boat instead of inside it. For tomorrow we will continue keeping more than one eye on that,' she declares.
Recent World Championship silver medallist and ISAF World Ranking number one, home sailor Camilla Ulrikkeholm, was happy to reach the semi-finals after a not very convincing opening of the regatta: 'I asked for some more wind in my evening prayers, and that helped. But the conditions are very challenging; with the top mark close to shore and a lot of wind shifts, puffs and gusts you have to track. And also some current on top of that' she laughs.
With just a few flights of the round-robin remaining, it was already clear that Meldgaard Pedersen and Macgregor would be joined by Ulrikkeholm in the semis, but the fight for the fourth slot was not over until the absolute end of the round robin. Merel Witteveen was ashore watching the last important nail biter between Stephanie Roble, USA, and Swede Anna Kjellberg, shouting out and jumping around at Restaurant Sejlklubbene in Skovshoved when the results became clear: Roble beating Kjellberg meant that all three of them ended up with a 8 - 8 record, in a tie that when broken gave the semi-final slot to the Dutch crew. Swede Anna Kjellberg couldn't cover her disappointment after having been eliminated from the semi-finals: 'We made no big mistakes, so right now I can just think about every situation we could have done better in order to gain just that one more valuable point we would have needed to reach the semis' she comments.
The Danish Open 2013 Ladies Cup will be determined Sunday, with the remaining semi-finals and the final matches.
Semi-final standings in the Danish Open 2013 Ladies Cup, the third event on the inaugural 2013 Women's International Match Racing Series. First to three points advances to the final: Lotte Meldgaard Pedersen, DEN - Merel Witteveen, NED 1 - 1 Lucy Macgregor, GBR - Camilla Ulrikkeholm, DEN 1 - 1
Match for fifth place: Stephanie Roble, USA - Anna Kjellberg, SWE 1 – 0

After the strong north westerly Mistral winds that kept the fleet of twelve TP52s at port yesterday and eliminated the chances of a practice race, today there were lovely conditions in the Costa Smeralda with north westerly breezes at eight to 12 knots.

A Q&A with Simon Parker about the Clipper Race and trans-USA cycling
Sail-World.com talked with Simon Parker to hear about his audacious sailing and cycling adventure with the Clipper Race.

But if you look at it, I think it should have the secondary poison type early, since it wouldnt really gain that much of a benefit if it was to get it later.
Having a grass/bug starter with bug RIGHT at the start would give it a whole ton of weaknesses already. Thats why I suggested to move it to a later part so it wouldnt burden the player if they were to chose the grasshopper.

The coolest Brit chicks are going lala for California brand Reformation: Cressida Bonas, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Alexa Chung all fans
- American beauties Taylor Swift and Lily Aldridge love Reformation
- Cressida Bonas chose a £150 dress from the label for a wedding
- LA brand with second store in NYC started up five years ago
- They up-cycle vintage items or create something new from leftover fabrics
- Prices start at around £40 and go up to about £170 for a dress
A hot new fashion label dressing everyone from Taylor Swift to Lily Aldridge in the U.S. has struck a chord on British shores.
UK fashion icons such as Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Alexa Chung and even Cressida Bonas have been spotted wearing styles from the cool new Reformation brand this summer.
Their cutting-edge co-ords, floral maxis and spaghetti strap slips have earned them a place in the most A-list of wardrobes. And the best bit: this celebrity label is actually affordable.
With prices starting at £40 for a top and going up to about £150 for a dress, the profile of America's newest cult clothing label is about to soar.
Rosie out with Jason Statham this month in Beverley Hills wearing a black floral print maxi halter dress by The Reformation, Gianvito Rossi boots and a Givenchy purse
Celebrities like the label because everything is produced in limited amounts, meaning that it's unlikely anyone will show up to an an event wearing the same thing as them.
Reformation dressmakers either up-cycle vintage threads or create something new out of leftover fabrics
Cressida, 25, recently chose a pretty £150 cutaway maxi dress for the marriage of Arabella Llewellyn and Thomas Burwel in Hampshire.
Designer and owner Yael Aflalo, from Los Angeles, hailed the style of Prince Harry's former girlfriend during a recent interview with Grazia.
'First of
all I think Cressida looked absolutely lovely, and second I can't tell
you how rewarding these moments are for me. I know it's a challenge to
get dressed for a wedding,' Yael Aflalo said.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wears Reformation in Malibu, California, earlier this month
'So much of what I design is for a modern woman who doesn't want to adjust her style or buy a dress she will never wear again - especially when it comes to getting dressed for a wedding.
'Cressida looked totally appropriate by accessorizing our Charles dress with heels and a clutch, and she would look equally appropriate throwing on a pair of sandals and wearing it to lunch with friends.'
The brand has been flying under the radar since Yael Aflalo started it as a sustainably conscious side project five years ago.
But with two flagship stores in Los Angeles and New York City and a growing list of celebrity clients, Yael can safely say it's now a full-time job.
Alexa Chung seen wearing a stunning Reformation dress a few weeks ago while in NYC, with Cutler & Gross sunglasses, Isabel Marant sweater and Gucci sandals
Lily Aldridge, Harley Viera Newton and Taylor Swift - who has been seen in their cute polka-dot two piece - are all fans.
The brand has had a celebrity following since the start thanks to their eco ethos, and figure-flattering designs
And for those Brits after some of those festival-inspired, boho fashion vibes there's even free shipping to the UK.

This was very good, Kathy! I started out w/a whole chicken, used the breast meat for Charlie's Famous Chicken Salad with Grapes (a *Kitchen Rule* of my DH) & then used the dark meat & wings for your recipe as written using apricot preserves. The fruit flavors are excellent here & it was served Fri nite w/veggie-based fried rice. DH liked it too, but said he thot he would prefer the chicken oven-crisped & the sauce served on the side. Thx for sharing this sure to be repeated recipe w/us. :-)
Made this recipe with pork chops..I love apricot and pork together. Chops were moist and fork tender with a defintie apricot flavour but sublte lemon taste as well. Cooking time was spot on. Served them with jacket potatoes, sour cream and salad. Will definitely make again.
I loved the flavor of this chicken! This was my first time using panko and I think it really added to the dish. Like the other reviewer I served it with Kathy228's Coconut Rice. The apricot preserves I used had HUGE chunks of apricot in them, I think the next time I make it I will run the sauce ingredients through the food processor. This is a keeper!
The sweetness in this dish is complimented with the lemon. I used the apricot preserves and divided the mixture in half. Half of the mixture covered the chicken and the other half was reserved, warmed and poured over the chicken for about 15 minutes at the end. The chicken was baked at 350 degrees and was done in approximately 30 to 40 minutes. I used boneless chicken breasts which I flattened with a meat mallet and cut into chicken strips. This resulted in a reduced cooking time. I squeezed 1 full lemon over the cooked chicken and as suggested served additional wedges on the side. This went very well with your Coconut Rice Coconut Rice.
