On a much less important note (see last post), today also begins voting for the Jewish and Israeli Blog awards (JIBs). I'm nominated for Best New Blog http://www.jibawards.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=110 and Best Humor Blog http://www.jibawards.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=130.
I've discovered a lot of great sites this past year, some of which provide as well-written and thought-provoking analysis as the newspapers, and others which are just wonderfully entertaining. Some of them are linked on this site to the right.
If you've enjoyed reading about Ulpan (Hebrew classes), cultural differences, and...of course...Bar, feel free to vote for this here site. Thank you, my loyal readers.

thanks for the Bar pic, I haven't seen her in a few days. livin it up when you're goin down!
Sorry, folks- the paid staff at Jewish Voice for Peace sent the following email to their 23,000 mailing list with direct links to the JIB voting- thus the surge in votes for Muzzlewatch. Jewish Voice for Peace endorses the Palestinian Right of return (thinly veiled code for hte demographic destruction of Israel) and is by no means a pro-Israel organization- i think its debateable whether or not they should even be allowed to participate in these awards.
Anyone- you are up against a professional blog put out by an organization with a 7 figure budget, and a 23,000 person mailing list.
Best of luck.
From Jewish voice of Peace/Muzzlewatch:
Pardon this display of shameless self-promotion, but our new Muzzlewatch blog has been nominated for three categories in this year's Jewish & Israeli Blog Awards. This is unusual, because the awards have largely honored blogs with a narrow perspective when it comes to Israel and Palestine.
In fact, this year, there are a number of terrific blogs that have been nominated that you should check out or vote for including Semitism , Tikun Olam, JVoices, and Jewschool. You might also enjoy Realistic Dove, Mondo Weiss, and of course, The Third Way.
Please vote for Muzzlewatch at the following links. First round of voting closes at the end of Sunday, April 29.
