La Verdadera Historia del Conflicto Árabe-Israelí
La guerra entre árabes e israelíes no nació en 1948. Nació mucho antes, y sus raíces políticas modernas tienen que ver con el nacimiento de las ideologías totalitaristas ultra-nacionalistas. El padre del actual totalitarismo islámico (llamado también fascismo islámico o "islamofascismo")...
German cars
This is so worth reposting, from my friend Robin Capper.
Are You Smart Enough to Be German?
I just took a test over on spiegel.de which was entitled, "Are You Smart Enough to Be German?". While the overall "format" of the test on spiegel.de is pretty annoying - 33 questions, equal to roughly 66 pages and 66 clicks (if you never make a mistake) - something else struck me more. Overall I...
Hello!
I've decided to return to Vox. Maybe a bad idea, because I can hardly keep my blog updated.. But I'll make an effort to find something to write about. Because I like Vox. A lot. A few of you should also write more often (Katie! Jaime!). So, what's going on with me? I went back to Germany for three...
Back to School Travel!
Its approaching that time again when we find ourselves short of cardboard boxes and preparing to cram ourselves into that 10'x11' dorm room we'll call home for the next 9 months. In an effort to ease the transition here are some travel deals to help you settle in before you have to buckle down......
100 Years of Life
It is not every year that a relative turns 100 years. My dad's Aunt Elizabeth arrived at this honorable age in July of this year. I was pleased to be able to find an extremely reasonable Ryan Air flight so that I could take a long weekend and celebrate this occasion with my German relatives. My...
Those Germans do great cars
I am a bit behind getting my write-ups of this Audi A3 Cabriolet done, but boy it was a nice ride. The fabric roof is so solid you’d swear you were in a hardtop. But last weekend’s motor was a real treat: This is going to be a slightly harder sell to Lucire readers but I loved it—all 306 bhp...
Pregnant from use of fake birth control pills?
Pregnant from use of fake birth control pills? Yes, coupled with sex, without a doubt mishaps of this nature happen often but I believe this poster plastered on the local pharmacy window down the street from where I live boils down to scare tactics. The poster says: “I buy birth control pills for...
Iran Rejects Deadline to Curb Nuclear Program
How much of a clue do the Western powers need before these nations comprehend that Iran is proceeding with weapons grade enrichment of uranium and that the constant offering of international negotiations is merely a stall tactic to reach the Iranian goal of nuclear weaponry? This latest round of...
Rescue the Anne ~ I can't believe
The band Rescue the Anne's website is buried in the middle of page 4 of google's search results, and their myspace is on page 3, and they are too good for those kind of results. They sing in English, but their sites are in German, it's weird. Naming your band after the CPR dummy, Resucsi-Anne, is...
Castle
In the distance is the Heidelberg Schloss (castle). It happened to be cloudy and overcast the day I took this. I have yet to trek up there to see the grounds. However it just amazes me that these type of structures were built hundreds of years of ago and are still standing. I like to go to the...
ESTÚPIDO SAVANNAH - Thursday, July 31, 2008 10:44:50 AM
Uh… Not really the best historical reference to make your point but it did make me smile. Everyone seems to be in a tizzy over the sugar refinery again. OSHA is trying to make up for its regulatory failures by making imperial pay and pay. Employees who didn’t get severely injured just want to go...
Differences overseas
I'm living overseas in Germany because my husband is in the service, but I've gotten used to it...for the most part. Besides the overall cultural differences, I've had to deal with German doctors since the beginning of my pregnancy because the military hospital closed its maternity ward and...
In brief, Disneyworld...
Ah, Disney. It's already been three weeks since then, and I still haven't posted! My sincerest apologies-- but here I go! To tell the truth, there aren't that many pictures of food from Disneyworld. As most tourists are wont to do, we ended up spending most of our time trying to enjoy as much of the...
Black and Mild
Some douchebag in a polo shirt gets out of his car while I'm on my roof with Leah and Kabelo. I squint, saying, "I wish I had better vision. This light," I raise my hand to cover the light, "that distance," I watch the dude stumble up to the curb. He sees me basically heiling, and turns away. An...
KCRW's Left Right & Center 7/25/08: Obama Overseas, McCain Campaign, The Poll Truth, Mortgage Bill

Olive Welcomes Obama to Germany
In spirit, anyway. Let's hope he doesn't claim to be a donut while he's there.
Important Trip or Just a Stunt.
Senator Barack Obama has decided that the best way to give voters confidence in his foreign policy abilities by traveling to Europe and the Middle East to meet with some of the leadership of these nations. My question is what difference does this make at this point? We have about four months before...
