Silent but Alive

There's something particularly disheartening about a blog in a state of coma. The blog is not a product of its author so much as it is "an author" in itself: the speaking voice of an online persona that is only partially related to a real one. When such a voice dies out, the persona is dead.

Did the hectic day to day, Facebook and the growing willingness to pay for my writing kill Mr. Everywhere? I hope not, and yet find myself uninspired even now to write more. Did I run out of stuff to tell? It feels more as though there's too much to tell. Some of it is told in the articles Itka and I now write as a team for Haaretz (those periodically get translated into English, is in this case) All else will be told in good time.

In the meantime, there are nearly two years' worth of archives here for newcomers and frequent fliers alike to explore, trips to diverse destinations: Amman, Budapest, Ashdod... political reflections worthy of an investigation by the shin bet, some amateur photography and yes, the occasional love story. Enjoy them all.

While I'm sad to have less Yuval online, it is really important to take a break from blogging (as I often do). Blog inspiration ebbs and flows, so enjoy the hiatus and I can't wait for your triumphant return.

Yuval - I speak from another blog facing a recession and I sympathize. Just make sure you don't forget your passwords. And I too await your return...hi Jeff!

I am pleased to report that I returned to blogland with two new posts, one on shopping in Jenin and one on Palestinian fair trade. Maybe it will be an inspiration to get back on the wagon?

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of troubles when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in large starting capital.
Now, I'm happy and lucky , I started take up real income.
It gets down to select a correct companion who utilizes your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, and shares the profit with me.

You may ask, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:
