Tuesday, March 1, 2011. The culmination of the J Street conference was a day of lobbying. We were asking our representatives to sign the Schakowsky-Eshoo letter. One of my nine meetings was canceled, and only one was with an elected official. The rest were with staff, which I am told is not unusual. I'm psyched for a marathon of nine meetings with Michigan Congressmen or staff today on the Hill. I caught a glimpse of Haaretz reporter Natasha Mozgovaya interviewing the MKs in attendance.

MeiselBlog: How to pay for parking in Israel
http://meiselblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/how-to-pay-for-parking-in-israel.html
Saturday, January 16, 2016. How to pay for parking in Israel. People say it is tough to find a parking spot in Tel Aviv, but I never had trouble finding a spot. There are many curbs painted blue and white, and it is legal to park next to a blue-and-white curb as long as you pay. Good luck figuring out how to pay. Where can you buy an EasyPark? The post office of course! National identification card for citizens = תעודת זהות. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Ilene's blog - you only get three meals a day.

Monday, February 22, 2016. Tax basics and EITC awareness. How much more federal income tax do you owe if you earn one additional dollar? Starting from zero, you owe no tax on the first $10,300. Before the federal government starts taxing income, it subtracts a chunk from the amount you earned. If you earn one more dollar, then you owe 10 cents. Above $10,300, you enter the 10% tax bracket. The first $10,300 still does not get taxed, but that one additional dollar gets taxed at a rate of 10%. Many people ...

Erez's Workshop journey in Kvutzat Zerem. Monday, May 17, 2010. FInal Peula with Sister chava! Something that has come to be a common question we have been dealing with on Workshop is the question of weather or not it is possible to be Zionist outside of Israel. When I was first presented with this question, months ago, i thought of course it is! However now, I am not so sure. The question has now become, what does it mean to be Zionist? The answer seems clear, of course! When a young Israeli call for Je...

Erez's Workshop journey in Kvutzat Zerem. Wednesday, April 28, 2010. The Rebel: Yom Kvutza; 4-26. Lets look at something cool. The Rebel: Albert Camus. What is a rebel? A man who says no: but whose refusal does not imply a renunciation. He is also a man who says yes as soon as he begins to think for himself. A slave who has taken orders all of his life suddenly decides that he cannot obey some new command. What does he mean by saying "no"? Lets look at a few things he wrote. First, "What is a rebel?
