Likewise, many a French official has underscored the unwavering and “natural” quality of the commitment between France and the United States (De Gaulle 1965; Mitterrand 1984; Macron 2018). Yet political scientists and historians often point to the cyclical nature of French-American relations (Duroselle 1978; Bozo and Parmentier 2007: 545).

  • Saratoga Chips (1965)
    Saratoga Chips (1965) Pembina Hall was the eatery for Taché Hall. And Pembina Hall, like love, was a many splendour’d thing. You could go there to eat food, watch girls, meet and discuss things with friends over a meal, or stimulate your intellect by wondering about the names of things listed on the menu. For the most part, the meat-and-potatoes fare dished out at Pembina Hall didn’t do much to generate abstract thought in developing young minds. There was, however, one food item they fed us that really made me ponder. From time to time, the suppertime potato component was something called “Saratoga chips.” Truth to tell, Saratoga chips were nothing more than the things you find inside a cardboard box with “Old Dutch” and a windmill painted on the outside. They’re potato chips, simple as that. So why not just call them potato chips? Why the fancy name? I had never heard them called “Saratoga chips” in all my years of growing up. There are two questions here: (1) Why were these things called Saratoga chips; and (2) What exactly was the reason for calling them such? These queries might sound like two ways of saying the same thing, but they’re not. When I first entered the U of M, the inside of my head was not simply a black hole waiting to be filled with wisdom, knowledge, and truth. I already knew a thing or two, including a bit about “Saratoga.” I knew it was the name of a battle that happened during the American revolutionary war.

Most of the streets seemed like they were made for walking on rather than for driving • Saw an interesting man pretending to be a statue; it was interesting because he was sitting like he was in a chair with only one leg touching the ground; we postulated that he either put a lot of weights in the front of his shoe or has a wire frame attached to his stand that supports his weight • Went to Picasso Museum. Steph thought the museum was really cool because it showed the design process of Piccaso's art: first sketches, then work on the difficult parts, and then the final version • Went to a small restaurant and got a few tapas • It started raining, so we all put on ponchos or rain coats • Went to a grocery store, bought bread, chorizo, cucumber, mango, cabeza de cervo (literally trans- lates to \head of deer"), and lettuce.

  • Christian Codex
    OUR LADY OF SORROW (A collection of spiritual essays by Israel Shamir) Introduction Sit comfortably, put your glass down. Check your response: What statement would annoy you most: a. your mother is a whore, b. Christ never existed and Resurrection is a myth, c. Jews have too much power in the US. If you consider 'C', you have a problem. Even worse, you are a part of the problem. For a long while, it was the problem of Palestine, but since then, the Second Intifada, a confrontation of Native Palestinians with the Jewish state grew into the World War Three. Many developments in politics, art, culture, and religion – not only the war in the Holy Land and in the Middle East, but decline of Christianity, rise of the Right, advent of Globalisation are parts of the same problem. The war in Palestine can be terminated today by granting full equality of its Jewish and non-Jewish residents. Somehow this solution is not even discussed. The author would love to make a celebratory presentation of wonderful achievements of Jews, if it would cause them to embrace their Palestinian neighbours. However, this way was tried and failed spectacularly. In the author’s eyes, the Jewish hubris is the main obstacle to the solution, and that is why these essays are deconstructing Jewishness, trying to undermine all possible reasons for the hubris. This could be painful reading for his Jewish brothers and sisters intoxicated with success and trapped by mantra of Jewish martyrdom. But the Jewish exclusiveness has to be exorcised, in order to integrate Jews into the family of nations.
