CBCbooks reports aboutVine Awards for Canadian Jewish Literature re-launch with 5 prizes worth $10K.

  • Applicants no longer have to be Canadian citizens as long as their work has significant Canadian content
  • http://www.cbc.ca/books/2016/02/5-re-vamped-canadian-jewish-literature-awards-worth-10000.html

    In a Dec, 18, 2011, email, former U.S. ambassador to Israel Thomas Pickering suggested that Clinton consider a plan to restart then-stalled peace negotiations by kickstarting Palestinian demonstrations against Israel.
    Pickering described the effort as a potential “game changer in the region,” recommending that the United States undertake a clandestine campaign to generate unrest. Clinton requested that his email be printed.
