If it was up to me, I'd relocate the nation of Israel to America. I would be more than proud. Give them the whole state of California and let them turn the state around. California would become prosperous in less than ten years.
My goodness, more than a few Palestinian sympathizers in the forum. Sounds like some members need to go to Gaza. Hamas may be running out of suicide bombers these days. I wish you all of the best.
Could simply be the difference between cultures. We westerners are a mouthy sort. I suspect that the state of Israel is in prayer: As we all should be.
I'm for whichever side stands the greater likelihood of believing in Jesus Christ, that of course would be Israel, with those that practice the Messianic Judaism teachings and belief... The Islamic charter: To destroy Israel. Death or victory. Congratulations, Hamas. You're dead, dead in this life and the next. Israel will never be destroyed. Don't mess with the God of Israel.
America ? On a map, it sort-of looks like a discombobulated set of Scottish Bagpipes. With south Texas and Florida being the two tenor drones (pipes) and The state of Maine is the tip end of the bass drone (pipe). Baja, California: Will have to double as the blowpipe and chanter.
In a world where loose lips can sink ships and anyone with the desire to intercept transmissions and communications of other will do so, it's comforting to have text messaging as a means to send and receive coded messages.
For the most part, I'm glad that my younger years are over. Those horrible high hormone and testosterone levels made me do things without thinking. It wasn't a matter of settling for anything that came along, I WANTED everything that came along. Now, being practical and being able to have foresight about how a relationship will unfold is invaluable. Being a single adult, does have its merits. No, it's not just you. Enjoy being a single adult. It sure beats feeling like we were going to die if we didn't have a girlfriend/boyfriend, when we were younger.
The magic of the slow-cooker includes a constant temperature level, no fluctuation of temperature during cooking due to water evaporation as with stovetop cooking. The average temperature on low setting is about 200 F / 93 C... After the meat is fully cooked and I'm eating out of the slow-cooker during the day, I switch to warm setting for 30 minutes, then back to low setting for 30 minutes, back-and-forth, to keep over cooking from happening. Just place a portion in the microwave if temperature is a concern.
Meat sure does turn-out much more tender in a crockpot/slow-cooker than boiling meat on the stove top. I remember, my parents and grandparents went crazy over the crockpot in the 70s, when the slow-cooker first came to stores.
