The third generation of Very High Energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) gamma-ray telescopes (e.g. HESS, VERITAS & MAGIC) are an order of magnitude more sensitive than their predecessors. Over the past four years observations with these instruments have increased the catalog of VHE emitters to more than 70 sources, of which 22 are extragalactic. While only limited variability is found from the 15...
