My Experience With the ADL

The aim of this blog is not to pile it on the ADL, but to show that this organization that is expected to fight hate, discrimination and defamation, has little tolerance for the suffering of any group other than the Jewish population.I was invited by t… Continue reading

Transforming the Mundane and Common Into Something Sublimely Stylish

Over the past year, I had the pleasure of taking a walk down my very own personal “event-planning-memory-lane” while creating a monograph of our event design work, David Stark Design (2010, The Monacelli Press).

Goodbye To The Anglo-American Special Relationship?

Britain’s new coalition government comes not a moment too soon. After days of torturous negotiations, David Cameron’s Conservatives finally made a deal with Nick Clegg’s center-left Liberal Democrats.

As the late British politician Enoch Powell observed, “all political careers end in failure.’ Former PM Gordon Brown was quickly ousted from 10 Downing Street and packed off to retirement. The new, youthful David and Nick show moved at flank speed into 10 Downing Street. It was almost as fast as a palace coup.

David Cameron, You’ve Just Become Britain’s PM, What Are You Going to do Now?

“I’m going to Disneyworld,” the traditional said-to-camera line for the next morning’s telly advert after a star US athlete wins the football Super Bowl is not an option, the Treasury’s broke.

In a second evening of post tea-time events that would make retired US television game-show host Monty Hall of “Let’s Make Deal” fame proud (duly noted that his first name is also part of a street gambling sleight-of-hand card game – Three Card Monty – which only a sucker plays because it cannot be won), Gordon Brown raised an ultimate middle finger to David as HE called the moment when HE would leave Number 10. That forced both Tories and LibDems to hurriedly bring to an end a marathon series of negotiations. Mr. Cameron had to then ‘rush’ (painfully slowly through traffic) to Buckingham Palace and answer affirmatively whether or not he thought he could form a government.

Where Are the Moderate Jewish Voices?

I am a bit sickened after reading one of the lead articles in the World Section of Tuesday’s New York Times. It focuses on a fire that erupted in a mosque in the West Bank town of Luban al-Sharkiyeh. Israeli authorities are now investigating the cause of this fire. According to the New York Times, Palestinians say they are certain extremist Israeli settlers are responsible for this.

I work in the field of Intercultural Communications. Over and over again, I listen to people outside the field address my Muslim colleagues asking, “Where are the moderate Muslim voices? How come I never hear from you? Why are the terrorists making all the headlines?” In this instance, I feel like the roles have been reversed. Sadly, I will not be surprised if the investigation finds that extremist Israeli settlers initiated this fire. In December, a mosque in the West Bank town of Yasuf was attacked by arsonists. Last month, a mosque in Hawara was vandalized with a Star of David and Hebrew letters spray-painted upon a wall. I hope I am wrong, but these two prior cases force me to consider otherwise.

Sex Addiction and ‘Pleasure Deafness’

He walked into my office — the embodiment of any woman’s worst fear. Tall, good-looking, and impeccably dressed, “David” was, on first impression, a great catch. Except he was also a

proud philanderer, a skilled seducer, an insatiable womanizer. And he was asking for my help.
