May your year be blessed with accepts subject to minor corrections.

If it were and he had proof, why didn’t he challenge it? Why didn’t the student challenge it?

I'm on my way to a Chanukah event. It should be a celebration but instead our community is once again mourning.

I will be thinking of everyone in Australia and those around the world in the Jewish Community who know this fear and loss.

We stand with you.

The anti-Semitic mass shooting in Australia will cause a national conversation and policy change. We know this because the 1996 Port Arthur massacre led to significant restrictions on guns.
The shooting at Brown will do nothing. We know this because it occurred on the anniversary of Sandy Hook.

I think wearing a glove is pretty essential. I risked slicing my finger! But with gloves I sliced 1kg of apples!

This time I have baked it using the mandoline (yesterday I cut my finger using it to slice some red cabbage without the glove!)…but I had also baked it without a couple of weeks ago and then I cut the apples by hand.

You can also see my grammar is wobbly! 😄

I am not here very often these days. But the semester is almost over, as I am marking, this is the best coping mechanism.

No, you aren’t. And what is exactly your point?

And surely, small-boat come on motorbikes or cars…go figure. Who wrote this stuff??

I can easily believe these exchanges! Kids and bugs…you need to talk with somebody who gets it! 😁

I have a little problem with the amount they are asking. A little short at the moment! 😁

I so wish there were workshops like these when I started! Get as much support as you can get! Fabulous initiative.

The Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh also had exceptional links with slavery, including owning a plantation for a period. NHS Lothian Charity has done some impressive and thoughtful work with the Health Board on this shameful history: org.nhslothian.scot/aboutus/atla...

Better than nothing?

Oh Greg, you interviewed two of my former colleagues in a week! I just saw a clip with @frankcogliano.bsky.social while you were recording! We will be listening to the July 4th special! And we are heading back to Edinburgh next week for a two-week stint as aliens (well, me! They’re British citizens)

Yes, the hypocrites. They want immigrants to do the hardest jobs and then leave rather than be able to stay and vote.

And they also encouraged people to not vote in the recent citizenship referendum....

They also said that taxes were going down: the fiscal levy is now at 47%. It has never been so high. People should pay attention to facts and not words. They do the opposite of what they preach.

Italy to issue half million non-EU work visas over next three years The move is part of a strategy to expand legal immigration channels in response to labor shortages.

I had to read this twice to believe it...Meloni, who ran for office on an anti-immigration platform, has now announced plans to let in hundreds of thousands of immigrants, in order to deal with the Italian labor shortage
