India Wedding

All of the recent hoopla about the 40th anniversary of the Woodstock music festival in 1969 (if everyone who claimed to have been there were actually there, it would have required the entire state of New York to accommodate them) had me thinking about where I was in the “Summer of Love.” I don’t remember, except that I do remember feeling sad when Judy Garland died that summer (and unbeknownst to me, Gay Liberation’s “Bunker Hill”–the Stonewall riots–followed within days).

So why shouldn’t she take the opportunity to make her life long dream of being that princess come true at her wedding by selecting the Fairy tale theme and comp

Yesterday I got take-out Sushi dinner with two friends, who I will, for the sake of simplicity and to illustrate the fact that it was a diverse group, simply call white guy and black guy, at the Nathan Phillips square outside Toronto city hall. As we walked into the square looking for a empty, quiet spot to rest our asses and I heard some music that sounded familiar, coming from a stage marked with a banner saying “Himalayan festival 2009″ (or something of that essence), two things were pretty c

If you’ve chosen beautiful crystal tealight candle holders or divine chrome bottle stoppers for your wedding bomboniere , they simply aren’t quite right for the kids!  You’ve got the choice of either giving the kids an adult favor, nothing at all (oh the shame!) or a child-friendly wedding favor just for them!  Without fail, there is a debate at every wedding about whether to invite children.  If you do decide to go ahead and have kids at your wedding, it will be so much easier if you enter

Franz Joseph Haydn’s most celebrated choral work, The Creation, was brought to three cities in Romania last month through Oratorium, a music festival sponsored by  Jubilate , Crescendo and Soli Deo Gloria. The spiritual impact of performing this masterpiece of sacred music was felt by audiences and performers alike, in a country where just 20 years ago a performance like this would have been banned. Spiritually I have never felt this kind of transforming, spiritual ‘charging’.  I have the

Closer to home, Bank of America is closing 10% of its branches.  That’s about 600 banking centers.  At $2MM+ per branch in start-up costs, BofA is writing off over  a billion dollars (a con
