You are adventurous and seek excitement or are experiencing sudden and unexpected changes in your life. You tend to be extroverted and competitive, especially today and this may lead you to conflict or to encourage someone who already feels threatened by you to act covertly against you. You should therefore be discrete and show more sensitivity and willingness to compromise, help and be generally friendlier to those about you. | Rules of EngagementThese pages (the one on the left too) list the official rules of engagement (i.e. under what conditions can live ammunition be used) for Israeli soldiers in the Occupied Territories. |

"Tlishim" is a word I invented for those home-made flyers that have the babysitter's or band-leader's phone number on tear-off tabs.
In this project (part of Salamanca Group's He'art Shulaim 7) I made and hung a number of tlishim with various texts in Jerusalem's Nachlaot neighborhood. All the ads had the same phone number which led to a voice-mail box.
The ad for the small lot was the one that got the most responses, many of them quite serious inquiries.
At the He'ara exhibition I showed a time-laps video of an ad with the audio from the voice-mail box.
