Hell yes, they are helping the NYC economy
Fuck them, they should wait in line like the rest of the world
It's shitty, but I'd do it if I could get gas without waiting
My purse is the size of a hockey bag, and smells just as bad.
I should be staff.
thank you Mod for the title change
That sweaty equiptment starts to smell foul with the quickness.
It's like "hey I have a great idea... i'm going to go work out and get nice and sweaty and soaked with water and spit... them i'm going to shove all the stuff i was wearing into bag. then i'm going to do that again, and again and.... i wonder wonder what that will smell like?"
I'd think if trump was really that concerned about giving back he'd be letting people who need the jobs compete for them.
Do you ever wash yours? A friend just leaves his bag in the back room of a bar over the road from the arena because he doesn't have room in his tiny place for it. I'm pretty sure the bar staff aren't washing it for him
I see no reason to be angry with the people on the show, producers of the show or even Donald Trump at all. They needed gas and they found a way to get it. So be it.

My Organic Garden
My Organic Garden has played a major in my life. Many of you know how I am very passionate about organic farming and food growing. My family has had organic gardens for well over 40 years. Gardening is an excellent way to de-stress after a long hectic and busy day. It also helps in getting one's self reconnected with the earth. Overall, it has a deep calming effect on one's soul and well-being.
My family and I have been very grateful for growing many incredible fruits and vegetables. Below you will see the 13 lbs. organic beet that I picked today. We have experienced many miracles in our gardens.
It's seems that my organic garden is very popular. Especially with the local residents, Larry The Squirrel and his four buddies love to raid our garden.
Let's take a look at the origins of organic gardening in this county and how it has played a major part in America's history. Our Founding Fathers considered themselves first and foremost famers before being politicians. It was only the conditions they faced as subjects of the British Crown that caused them to change in order to seek colonial freedom. They were self-reliant and lived off the earth. They understood the basic principles of life, living and the pursuit of happiness, which today seem almost non-existent. In today's technological age, many have lost and forgotten what these great men stood for, fought for and in some instances died for.
Andrea Wulf spoke about this in a recent article in The Los Angeles Times and goes into further detail her recent book entitled "Founding Gardeners – The Revolutionary Generation, Nature and the Shaping of the American Nation." She spoke of how the influence of gardening and farming helped to craft the images used by The Founding Fathers to bring about understanding and development of this nation. It continues to be an amazing process, one that we are all part of today.
I am very grateful to Steven Nahabedian and his company Fired Up Tiles (click to see his website) for providing us with all of the awesome themed tiles that you see in my garden. Many of you are probably familiar with Fired Up Tiles as he is carried in a majority of health food stores and Whole Foods across America.
Many of the tiles represent a variety of themes, religions and beliefs. In my garden, they are all united in peace, harmony and life giving presence. These tiles also add a sense of style, fashion and practicality to my garden. They illuminate and provide a vibrant energy to the area and allow me to find my way. In essence, they provide a pathway to organic love.
Take a look below at the beautiful fruits and veggies that we picked today from My Organic Garden!

WAR's Land of the Dead detailed
In an interview with EG yesterday, Warhammer Online's executive producer Jeff Hickman and creative director Paul Barnett spoke at length about the forthcoming Land of the Dead zone in Warhammer Online.
Part of the Call to Arms live expansion, LotD will feature loads of stuff to do and various ways to get booty. It'll be opened by "a race for access between the Order and Destruction factions," apparently. Watch your step mind: once you're inside you're always open to attack from players of the other faction – even when in instances.
"Tomb Kings, or The Land of the Dead, is a massive zone which is broken up into two parts – The Necropolis and the Tomb of the Vulture Lord," said Hickman.
"It is RVR-gated. In other words, each realm must fight for ownership and the dungeon is expected to change hands nightly. It is full of new and interesting Public Quests, new lairs, refreshing game mechanics, new rewards and loot and generally awesome new stuff."
"It is the ultimate sandbox zone," added Barnett. "Many of the great things from Darkness Falls will be built upon. Tokens, other loot methods, wide level range, and the thrill of your enemy always breathing down your back. Lots of opportunities for RVR within the dungeon itself."
"You can be attacked anywhere in the Land of the Dead," said Hickman. "There is a huge open-world area, but also some instanced areas. In any of these areas, your enemy can hunt you down and fight you (as long as they gain control of the dungeon while you are in it). Even the instances are not safe."
Sounds excellent. Hand on our heart, we think it does.

Rumor: Layoffs at Mythic affect senior designers
Joystiq is rumouring that between 60 and 130 people have been laid off at Mythic.
Some of redundancies are apparently from WAR development staff, supposedly including senior designers.
Mark Jacobs, however, made a statement on the official Warhammer Online site claiming that staffing numbers are attributed to consumer need and progress with game design.
"With respect to customer service, quality assurance and play testing, prior to the launch of WAR, we hired additional people to deal with the rush of demand associated with an MMO launch," he said.
"Since the launch last year, the demand for customer service has gone down as players become more familiar with the game. Obviously, demand for a large QA and play-testing staff also falls after launch. As a result, we saw a staff reduction which is in line with the company-wide initiative."
We've contacted Mark for a further statement.

Warhammer Online to get official forums
Mythic's confirmed Warhammer Online's to get its own forum, to be run by the developer.

First Warhammer Online "live" expansion is Call to Arms
Mythic just confirmed that Warhammer Online's first expansion is to be titled Call to Arms. It's a "live" affair, with a schedule and everything.
It's free, and will include "two highly anticipated new careers – the Orc Choppa and the Dwarf Slayer – and a new dungeon zone called 'Land of the Dead,' set in the desert realm of the Tomb Kings," according to the PR.
Here's the timeline:
- 'Call to Arms: Bitter Rivals' Live Event (March): Successful completion allows head start access to the new Orc Choppa and Dwarf Slayer careers. The event will also include the new Chaos-themed RvR Scenario, Twisting Tower.
- Two New Careers Join WAR (March): The Orc Choppa and Dwarf Slayer answer the Call to Arms.
- 'Call to Arms: Beyond the Sands' Live Event (April): Details to be revealed soon!
- 'Call to Arms: Rise of the Tomb Kings' Live Event (May): The race between Order and Destruction players begins to unlock the Land of the Dead for their Realm.
- 'Land of the Dead' Opens (June): The deserts of Nehekhara open to players with the addition of a new RvR-gated dungeon zone. To gain access to the Land of the Dead, opposing Realms must battle for control of the zone to access dozens of new Public Quests, instanced lairs, and a massive new Tomb Kings dungeon to plunder in search of the Casket of Souls.

Those who tried WAR are coming back to WoW, says Sams
Speaking to GI, Blizzard's Paul Sams has said that more than half of the people that cited leaving World of Warcraft to try Warhammer Online have no returned.
"We've seen a significant number of people, well over half, that cited Warhammer as their reason for leaving – they've already returned," said Sams.
"It surprises me because Mythic is a very good company and it doesn't surprise me at the same time because it's really hard [in the MMO space]."
Sams added, however, that WAR was, in his opinion, the most likely to succeed in the fantasy online market in the face of WoW.
"I think Warhammer is best positioned to succeed out of the various products that have come out thus far since World of Warcraft has come out," he said.
"It seems to be a good game, certainly a great company, Mythic and Mark [Jacobs] over there and his team, they're very, very talented."

Warhammer Online claims 750,000 registered players
Mythic's just put out a press release claiming Warhammer Online now has 750,000 registered players.
"Thanks to our players, the war between the Realms continues to escalate at an incredible pace," said company boss Mark Jacobs. "The battlefields are alive with three quarters of a million players fighting for the forces of Order and Destruction in truly epic and unparalleled Realm vs. Realm battles!"
The developer said that more than 500,000 players had signed up for the game in the first week of launch, as reported at the end of September.
Full thing after the link.
Fri, Sep 26, 2008 | 12:50 BST
Half a million players sign up for WAR
Mythic's confirmed that more than 500,000 players have created WAR accounts, and is claiming the MMO to be the fastest growing in history.
"In just one week we have a half a million people playing WAR online, and the ranks of Order and Destruction are growing at a record-breaking pace for a new MMORPG," said company head Mark Jacobs.
"We spent years working to provide players with the most stable, epic, and polished online world we could, but it is the players that have truly brought the Age of Reckoning to life."
If you haven't got involved yet, do. It's a great game, no question. Half a million people can't be wrong, right?
Thu, Sep 25, 2008 | 21:01 BST
Mythic to create credit database for WAR and past games
Following reports that Mythic didn't credit all employees that worked on WAR in the game itself, the developer's confirmed it is to launch an online database crediting everyone who participated in development. Which is nice.
From Shacknews:
The Mythic team is also taking the following steps to address credit policies:
- In-game and manual credits will be reserved for the launch team.
- Mythic will create an online database listing the name and title of everyone who contributed to a project, regardless of current employment status. Additionally, the studio will make best efforts to provide this information for its previous online games.
"I applaud Mythic for taking steps to address this issue," stated IGDA chairperson Jen MacLean. "Fair and accurate credits and transparent standards for crediting remain a pervasive problem in the industry."

Jacobs: WAR's the game we wanted to make
More Mark Jacobs this morning, this time from an interview with MMORPG.com. WAR isn't the game EA wanted to make, apparently: it's Mythic's.
"In the end we got to make the game that we wanted," he said. "Not that game that EA wanted, not the game that Blizzard wanted, it's the game that we wanted.
"We got two delays out of it with EA where we said, 'we need to delay it again'. EA didn't rush us out the door. They could have said to us in June, 'no guys, you've gotta ship it, patch it afterwards.' They didn't. And I don't mean that I threatened so they didn't, they never said that."

WAR master Mark: We're not scared of WoW
Mythic head Mark Jacobs isn't frightened of anything. No sir. And World or Warcraft definitely doesn't bring on the sweats.
"We're not saying we're going to beat [Blizzard], but we're not afraid of them," Jacobs told Gamasutra.
"We have our own hook; that's [realm versus realm combat], and we're pushing it and we're pushing it, just as we're pushing other innovations in the game. Blizzard is number one; we don't mind being number two, especially if it's a competitive number two."

WAR: GOA's eight-point guide to getting it up and running if you live in Europe
GOA just sent through this guide to getting Warhammer Online up and running if you live in Europe. Some of you – us included – have been experiencing difficulty registering and patching the game, so if you are, this is what you do.
Hit this for the official site. Then, word for word:
On the left menu bar click 'Download' and download the 'game client'. The download is about 10Gb's. Register at www.war-europe.com (don't try this with a beta key login if I sent you one, get a personal one specific to your email – please note that it is not necessary to login to the war-europe.com to complete this process). Using the menu bar on the left, click 'Code'. Fill the required fields in with your definitive retail code. You should receive a message telling you your registration is being processed. Your 'login' name is infinitely more important than your 'nickname' at this point. Make a cup of tea, and maybe call a friend you haven't spoken to in a while! Check your email for confirmation that your key has been accepted. If it says something about 'Certain components could not be activated because they are incompatible with your account' just ignore it. Once downloaded, using your 'login' name (NOT nickname) and chosen password from step 2, log on and patching should begin. Make a cup of tea, and order a Pizza it's time to play WAR!
The game's out now.

Cut Warhammer Online content to return for free
Mythic boss Mark Jacobs has confirmed that content cut from the launch of Warhammer Online – namely character classes and capital cities – is to be reintroduced at a later date as part of the subscription charge.
"Are we going to put [the pulled content] in a paid expansion? No," Jacobs told 1UP.
"What I've told the users point blank is that we want to give it to you as part of subscription content. We don't have a schedule penciled in for when that will be coming, but we're going to release it without any additional charge to players."

Broken WAR in Europe – GOA denies launch registration issues
GOA has denied that Warhammer Online is still experiencing registration issues in Europe, despite the fact that it… is.
New users are complaining that they're unable to log into WAR's European site, following assurances from GOA last week that issues experienced in the open beta would be cleared up before launch.
"Your information is inaccurate, sorry," we were told by a rep this morning. "These problems stem prior to the launch."
Which is fine, despite the fact that we personally can't log into the European WAR site. We bought the game yesterday, and didn't participate in the beta.
Not being able to log in means we can't set up an account and patch the client. Which means we can't play the game.
None of this is being helped by the fact that there's no customer support available for the game by phone. Only email.
We're also hearing reports of queues of around 30 minutes to get onto a server for those that have managed to register.
GOA added that the launch was on track.
"For your information, our launch went very well yesterday," said the rep. "Our figures are good."
We're waiting on further comment from GOA in France and UK PR reps.

Music is as good and diverse as ever, just have to put some effort in and look for it as it's not being played on radio or TV anymore which caters to mainstream audiences and that of which currently like generic music. Absolutely does not mean all modern music is horrible, that in itself is a generic statement.
This is why the internet is so important to music nowadays, so artists can be discovered rather than shunned behind the generic crap.

This is an idiotic and incorrect statement. Honestly this kind of crap doesn't provoke anything intellectual and is weighed with pointlessness and irrelevance.Modern music is horrible. No comparison to the music of the past is needed.

Just sayin' how there are other (and better) ways of discovering new music other than AM/FM radio nowadays. The internet is just one of them and arguably the biggest for unsigned, low-tier/mid-tier artists to get their name out there for more people to hear and discover.
For me, it's probably about 70% of the music I listen to I would have never known if it wasn't for the internet and its streaming services, recommendations, social media sites, etc. And a good majority of those being downright impossible to discover without the internet, so I'd say it's a pretty good method to go by.

The same can be said for every decade before us. It's just that all of the crappy bands and artists have, for the most part, been forgotten by the proverbial sands of time. Take a look at any Top 40 chart from the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s and you'll see plenty of acts you'd rather not listen to among the so-called classics.

It's a very interesting story that you tell, AC. One that illustrates how injustice can be found in …Read Morejust about any system.
Have you heard the one about the confused old man, suffering from Alzheimer's, who wandered to a home he used to live in one early morning, knocking on the door, trying to get in. The owner of the house called the police and then demanded to know who the man is. Not getting an answer, and apparently too impatient to wait for the police, he shot the senile old man to death.
Or maybe you have heard several stories about jaded young men. (They are always young men, aren't they?) who feel a sense of alienation in their young age. Who are likely imbalanced, but take advantage of the local lax gun laws in order to procure weapons and cause a mass shooting in their local community.
And have you heard the one about how the trigger happy neighborhood watchman with a history of violence took the life of a young man as he was walking to his father's house after purchasing some snacks at a local store?
You know where none of these stories would ever take place? England, because of the strict controls over firearms in that country. Or Australia, ever since the banned firearms some years ago. Or Iceland, another country with strict gun laws. These are all uniquely American tragedies.
There is injustice in every system in the world. There's not a single government that has figured it out. But if the choice of injustice is between a few avid and insistent gun owners going to jail, vs. 26 elementary students in the ground, the choice seems like a no brainer to me.

Mr. McGrath: Despite some comments to the contrary, it appears that both you and Mr. Lasser are…Read More&quo t;...counting on that [Ethics] Board to do its part in setting things right." You've already decided what it is they need to do, and the implication is that if they don't follow your wishes, they will be useless. Rather than make a determination, I read the Charter and the Code of Ethics before I offered my posts above, and I encourage you to do the same (they are both on the Town website). I speak only for myself, and am not a member of any political party. The limitations I wrote about are clearly indicated in the first sections of the Code, under 'Purpose'. You will see that it's not about insisting on a narrow scope; rather it is about what is written in black and white. You and I may not be happy about it, but you cannot then allow a governing body to reach beyond its statutory authority. If you did, you would be making yourself, me and our fellow neighbors vulnerable to the whims of any of our Town officials who wish to exceed their authority. I don't believe you want that to occur...To be sure, we have stumbled as a town, but that does not mean we can't pick ourselves up and move forward, holding our leaders and Board/Commission members accountable. We can't do that from a website only; we have to show up at meetings and participate. Hope to see you there!

Because these legal matters came to light post election and were resolved post election this is an issue.

The additional question is also going to be whether the way the information came to light post election could be considered deceptive and unethical behavior by an elected official.

Occidental College: Use of Harassment Charges to Suppress Protected Speech
Shock jock Jason Antebi, a student at Occidental College, served for three years as host of a popular student radio show known for political parody, provocative humor, and frequent mocking of Occidental's administration, its student government, and various political and social causes. In response to Antebi's biting on-air satire, three students filed sexual harassment complaints against him, claiming that his show promoted "disrespect and slander" and thus constituted a form of punishable "hostile environment" harassment.
Administrators soon fired Antebi from his radio show, and FIRE wrote a letter condemning the college's actions and pointing out that his speech was clearly protected under the First Amendment. FIRE soon received a response from Occidental General Counsel Sandra Cooper that flatly distorted and misrepresented facts and implied, without a shred of evidence, that Antebi had committed a variety of serious offenses including vandalizing cars and making harassing phone calls. Amid this controversy, Occidental College President Ted Mitchell announced his decision to dissolve the student government, of which Antebi was a vice president. Shortly thereafter, Occidental found Antebi guilty of "sexual and gender hostile environment harassment," ignoring both the college's promises to defend free speech and California's "Leonard Law," which guarantees free speech to students at private colleges and universities in California. Antebi filed suit against the college for violating his free speech rights. Eventually the two parties settled out of court, with Antebi declaring, "I am very happy with the outcome."
- " Victory at Long Last: Occidental College Settles Free Speech Lawsuit with Wronged Student," October 19, 2007: Following a three-year dispute and a multi-million-dollar lawsuit, Occidental College and former student shock jock Jason Antebi have settled a lawsuit in which Antebi sued the school for maliciously violating his freedom of speech and due process rights when it fired him and found him guilty of "harassment" for jokes both on and off the air. Stunningly, Occidental used this controversy as a pretext to dissolve the student government and began an aggressive campaign of false accusations and distortions to justify its actions. FIRE took up Antebi's defense in 2004 and is happy to announce that Antebi is pleased with the outcome of the settlement.

- "Student Files Multi-Million Dollar Lawsuit Against Occidental College After College Censored Speech and Dissolved Student Government," March 15, 2005: Today, former student Jason Antebi sued Occidental College in Los Angeles for millions of dollars for maliciously violating his basic rights and those of the entire student community. Last year, administrators fired Antebi from his position as host of a popular student radio program and found him guilty of sexual harassment for satirical jokes he made on the air. Occidental then used the controversy as a pretext for dissolving the entire student government. When FIRE took up Antebi's case, the college began an aggressive and far-reaching campaign of false accusations and misrepresentations to justify its actions. Occidental must now answer for its actions in court.
- "ACLU of Southern California's Second Letter Regarding Occidental College, March 11, 2005," March 11, 2005
- "Occidental Continues Campaign Against Students," October 18, 2004: Last spring, Occidental College in Los Angeles unjustly punished a student DJ for "sexual harassment" for on-air jokes, and then used the controversy as an excuse to dissolve the student government. FIRE wrote in protest of this violation of students' rights; the college replied with distortion and deceit. When FIRE pointed out Oxy's misrepresentations, the college fell silent. A new article in the Occidental Weekly newspaper reveals that the college is continuing its dishonest and shameful campaign. FIRE invites you to read the article and examine the evidence for yourself.
- "Occidental College Ruthlessly Suppresses Free Speech," July 15, 2004: Occidental College in Los Angeles has fired Jason Antebi, the student host of a popular radio program, and found him guilty of sexual harassment due to satirical jokes made on the air. Outrageously, Occidental then used this controversy as a pretext to dissolve the student government and began a campaign of false accusations and distortions to justify its actions. FIRE has formed a national coalition of organizations and is conducting a public campaign to oppose Occidental's outrageous actions.

The blinds look beautiful in our house, very "homey" touch. Put them up by myself, so the installation wasn't The construction and engineering of these blinds are incredible, smooth operation and outstanding craftsmanship from the magnetic valance clips to the weighted solid wood bottom. I am happy I found you, I'll order again.

By customer
I decided to try these blinds out in one bedroom of my house and liked it so much that I ordered them for a second bedroom. These in the third bedroom is probably next! Though shipping time was a bit longer the second time than my first order, I am very satisfied with the quality of my purchase for the price. Plus, they are super easy to install. It only took about 10 minutes a piece and it was easily a one-person installation job.

"great location!"
I loved being at the end of Main Street where I could walk to shops! Swimming pool was nice and the hotel was clean and well maintained. It has a nice breakfast/lunch restaurant Percy's attached. Front desk had no menus available to review which I thought was odd. Otherwise hotel service was fine. Would recommend leaving a menu in the rooms for guests […] to review.

"A total GEM"
This quaint hotel had it all. We stayed 3 nights. Friendly staff, convenient cafe with great food and service, convenient/free shuttle to ferry service to Martha's Vineyard, and short walk to shopping and wide choice of restaurants. It was a great start to our 10 day trip to explore Boston and the state and well priced. Loved it.Kontrollitud Hotels.com kliendiarvustus
"Great Quality at a Great Price"
I'm not sure why people gave this hotel sub par ratings. It's clean, close to the center of town and has an amazing heated indoor swimming pool. Granted, it's not modern or high tech but it's a hotel room. How many hours of the day are you really in it? Hopefully not that many since a short walk away, there's downtown Falmouth with great restaurants […] and shops. The Woods Hole ferry to Martha's Vineyard is about a 5 minute drive as well. The staff was friendly and the room was clean. It wasn't the best hotel room I've ever stayed in but it was comfortable and the bed allowed for a good night's sleep.

A few minutes up the road from Woods Hole. From what we saw this place was probably one of the nicer hotels. Some shops located across the street from the hotel. 10 minutes or so from the ferry.

We were in town for a wedding and took the chance to explore Falmouth, Woods Hole, and Martha's Vineyard. We were looking for a quiet and comfortable place to stay.

Hotel was a very short walk to the Ferry lot for Martha's Vineyard. From there, we got on a shuttle bus to take us to the port which was better than paying parking there.

"A good Labor Day weekend"
My girlfriend and I stayed here for Labor Day. We struggled to find a place that would only allow a 2 night stay. Inn on the Square did that for us. It was a quick walk to downtown, which has some good restaurants and bars. While the weather was dreary, we still entertained ourselves. If the weather was nice, the beach was a 10 minute walk away, and […] there was also public parking at the beach if walking isn't your thing.

"Mostly great stay"
The room was large and comfortable, and quite clean.

Debka.com, an Israeli site that tracks intelligence news, claims the cowardly pigs of Al-Qaeda are about to launch a cyber jihad:
On Sunday, Nov. 11, al Qaedaâs [sic] electronic experts will start attacking Western, Jewish, Israeli, Muslim apostate and Shiite Web sites. On Day One, they will test their skills against 15 targeted sites expand the operation from day to day thereafter until hundreds of thousands of Islamist hackers are in action against untold numbers of anti-Muslim sites.
While JewishJournal.com is not an anti-Muslim site, we are both American and Jewish, and therefore a potential target if this report is true. We think our firewall is secure, and we make daily off-site backups, so we're not scared.
If I'm out of touch November 11, however, here are the Top Ten Ways to tell if Al-Qaeda crackers have vandalized this Web site:
10. The Calendar Girls get burkas
9. Obituaries page is now the Martyrs page
8. JDate.com links now go to Jihad Date
7. Internal search engine no longer lists synagogues, but you can find suicide bombers by zipcode
6. Shabbat candlelighting time changed to weekly bomb-making time
5. Letters-from-the-editor replaces letters-to-the editor
4. Arts & Entertainment section renamed Ignorance & Misery
3. Hey, gimme a break we have a writers' strike here!
2. Web pages now read from right to left
And the Number One way to tell if Al-Qaeda has vandalized this Web site is . . .
1. Web site only works if you use Windows

In the 16th Century CE Rabbi Judah Loew was said to have created a powerful Golem to defend Prague's Jewish ghetto.
Although I composed this segment of score for the scene in Paul Wegener's 1920 prequel to his silent Golem series in the summer of 2002, I only recorded it during the last weekend of October.
I played all the brass and woodwinds myself, including the oboe solo near the beginning and the gong, all in my small Hollywood apartment.
In this scene, Rabbi Loew summons the Sumerian demon Astaroth to learn the word that will bring the Golem to life—rendered in the most arcane transliteration from Hebrew that I have ever seen, the word is "Aemath" meaning 'emet' (Hebrew)' or 'truth.' I had imagined Rabbi Loew reciting the Shema to hold the ancient demon at bay.
For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by Der Golem, the great Jewish monster of clay who only comes to life when Truth is in his breast (or on his tongue, in the original text).
Whether it is the silent film or the Hammer horror version or even Mozart's "Don Giovanni" (which, incidentally, had its premier in Prague), the living statue has always terrified and thrilled me.
It is my pleasure to share a little piece of that with our audience at JewishJournal.com.

Some people ask me how I can possibly compare Britney to Israel, as I did in my parody of Chris Crocker's famous Leave Britney Alone YouTube plea. Britney and Israel have a lot more in common than you think.
Britney grew-up Kentwood, Louisiana with an inborn ambition to perform. She appeared on Star Search when she was ten years old, then moved on to star in the New Mickey Mouse club. But she broke out on her own at age 17 with her first hit: âHit Me Baby One More Time.â Her dreams came true even before her body came into its own.
After a 2,000 year ambition to live freely on their own land, the Jewish people founded Israel in 1948. Israel fought for its existence and made it. Then in 1967 the wildest dream of the Jewish people came true: Israel conquered the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Israel was a worldwide star. Her dream came true even before its land came into its own.
Overall (at least in their better years) Britney and Israel liked to do things alone. Britney gave up the chance to be in girl group because she needed the limelight for herself. Only until her less successful fourth album, In the Zone, when she was already on the decline, did she collaborate with artists other than Madonna or her ex-boyfriend, Justin Timberlake. She was a pop star that dwelled alone.
Israel for a long time retained a friendly distance from other nations. Only America (the Madonna of nations) is considered Israelâs real best friend. Hopefully America wonât drop its alliance with Israel as Madonna did with Britney, despite their hot kiss. Overall, though, Israel is a people that dwells alone.
There is no denying that Britney is already an icon. The blonde from Lousiana has captured the imagination of millions of people for her beauty, her passion, her performing talent, and her fun, danceable pop songs. Okay, so sheâs no Celine Dionâbut take her at face value. She is the American Dream.
Israel too has become an icon. Sheâs a productive, beautiful stand-out in a region embroiled with dictatorship and strife. She has provided inspiration to millions of Jews and non-Jews around the world. She is the Jewish Dream.
Loved and Hated
People either love them or hate them. Israel and Britney have garnered both devout defenders and mean critics. But no one can remain apathetic for too long.
The Press: âGimme Moreâ
Both Britney and Israel have been relentlessly scrutinized and hounded by the press disproportionately to other pop stars and countries, respectively.
The press likes to build someone up, and then shoot them down. It gives them a special sense of power, since the press boasts no distinct accomplishments of their own other than covering the accomplishments (and failures) of others.
At the first sign of weakness, the press will start nitpicking every wrong or sour turn of any star. Britney and Israel have been constantly put under microscope, and soon enough, they started believing the mediaâs lies. They became the monsters the media and the critics made them out to be.
Israel and Britney grew-up too fast. They became so strong that they didnât know what to do with their own strength. Given their strength, they became so criticized that they didnât know how to cope with all the attention.
Just as Britney reached her peak, things started to go downhill. It started around her Onyx tour when she felt this great instinct to nest. She marries a childhood friend for 24 hours in Las Vegas. She cancels her tour, citing illness. Not long after she claims she wants to be normal, to raise a family like everyone else. She got married and had two kids.
Israel reached its peak during the Six Day War. Suddenly, Israel wasnât David against Goliath, but the Goliath itself. Israel was vilified as an Occupier. The Jews were no longer this weak people, but a strong force to be reckoned with. Israel felt this great instinct to nest: to give away the land it won and to be normal, just like everyone other democracy. Israel forcefully uprooted its own citizens from their homes in Gaza to fit in. Israel became so normal that it fought a bloody war in Lebanon completely unprepared.
Neither Israel nor Britney are truly âfessing up to their mistakes. And oopsâthey keep doing it again. They are trying to cover up their mistakes with parties and good times. They are getting stuck in the toxic relationships. Britney is drugging herself with alcohol, partying and who knows what else. Sheâs neglecting her children. Israel is drugging herself with an obsessed vision of peace, and neglecting the children of Israel.
Identity Crisis
What this all boils down to is that Israel and Britney suffer from lack of self-knowledge and self-pride. Who are they? What are they? Is Britney a pop star, a mother? Is Israel a liberal democracy, a Jewish State? Until they look deep inside themselves and discover the best of themâand be proud of thatâIâm afraid that both will continue on a terrifying path of suicide.
What has kept Britney going is her creative output. What has kept Israel going is its creative output (and not the government and the press). If they continue to create honestly and productively, maybe they will sustain. I anxiously await the redemption of both. Hit us baby one more time!

I've said it before, we—Jews—are family.
We are the children of Avraham Avinu (Abraham Our Father) and some of us are descendants of the first Jewish priest—the first Cohen—Aaron, brother of Moshe Rabbenu (Moses Our Teacher.)
It's all there in Jon Entine's cutting-edge new book, Abraham's Children, where he explores questions of Jewish race and identity. Most controversially, Entine digs deep into DNA evidence to discover to what extent the Jewish people are "chosen."
What? No reading for you? OK. Don't read all about it—we have video, doh.

Why am I defending Mutts and Moms against Ellen DeGeneres in the Great Doggy War of 2007? Well, someone has to.
It turns out we adopted our dog Kira from Marina Baktis at Mutts and Moms three years ago. Marina was a thorough pleasure to deal with. Not at all the crazy, doggy-Nazi Ellen is making her out to be. In fact, for us she bent the rules, allowed us to adopt without a home visit, and decided to forego a follow up visit. Obviously she felt confident we knew what we were doing. Beyond that, she drove 30 miles to deliver Kira to us.
Mutts and Moms specializes in pregnant, hard to place dogs—a pretty thankless job. Maybe Marina was wrong in Ellen's case, maybe ellen was wrong, maybe it was a misunderstanding—but for Ellen to go public and mobilize her legions against a private citizen devoted to the welfare of abandoned animals—how cruel is that? She could have handled it a thousand better ways. Yes, be kind to animals. But humans are animals too, Ellen, right?

The Internets seem to generate phresh pop culture phenoms on a regular basis. The dancing baby, the Kiss Me Turk, All Your Base Belong to Us, and Chris Crocker (who inspired our immensely popular YouTube video "Leave Israel Alone") are just a few.
One of this year's most visited Web sites is LOLCat.com, the home of funny cat pictures (hence LOL—Internets slang for 'laughing out loud').
The phenom has spread Web-wide. People sell LOLCats style chachkas on CafePress.com, and create LOLCat videos to share on YouTube..
But why stop there? (And don't hate us for our freedom.)
The latest is a Web-wide volunteer project to translate the Bible into LOLCat.
Here's the beginning of Bereshit (Genesis):
1 Oh hai. In teh beginnin Ceiling Cat waz invisible, An he maded the skiez An da earths, but he no eated it.
2 The earths wus witout shapez An wus dark An scary An stufs, An he rode invisible bike over teh waterz.
3 An Ceiling Cat sayz, i can haz lite? An lite wuz.
4 An Ceiling Cat sawed teh lite, to seez stufs, An seperatered the lite form dark An stufs but taht wuz ok cuz cats can seez in teh dark An not tripz ovr nethin. an cieling cat sayz u mus hav da moneyz 2 git da milkz.
5 An Ceiling Cat sayed light Day An dark no Day. Teh evning An morning was teh first day.
Women friends tell me Shir HaShirim is extra special, too:
1. Solomones Songz of Songz, kthx.
Teh Beluved.
2. Let him kiss me wit da kissus of hiz mouf—for yer love be moar delitefool den cheezbugers. Srsly.

I've waited my entire life for this moment—the opening of a kosher Subway—seriously.
As a nice Jewish boy growing up in a kosher home, when Subway was the topic, my religion had always said no—but my heart always yearned for yes.
So when I heard about LA's first kosher Subway, it was finally time to listen to my heart and fulfill my lifelong destiny of eating a meatball sub.
