Welcome to Dice With the Universe!

Generally, I am going to put some thoughts from my life here. They will usually have to do with my translation work or with my writing. Your comments are welcome.

Thanks.

The title of the blog, for those interested, is a part of a paraphrase of Albert Einstein's words -- "God doesn't play dice with the universe." The words originally meant Einstein's scepticism about Quantum Physics (that gives a statistical chance of an event occurring), but I use this phrase as a general guideline to life. Things don't happen randomly. If we want to succeed we need to make it happen ourselves.

Welcome again. Enjoy your stay.

Tiger Lily RIP

I received some bad news a couple of days ago. When we left Israel to come to US, we left one of our cats, Tiger Lily, with my wife's parents. Unfortunately, she passed away a few weeks ago (just before my wife's mom came here). Tiger Lily wasn't young, but she wasn't too old either (she was 12). She always suffered from overweight and eventually died of liver problems. She was a very nice and friendly cat, and she will be missed. I will post some pictures later.
