Dear Arcaffe, Nearly every morning on my way to work I stop at the Jerusalem branch for a cup of coffee. I am always satisfied and your employees are always very pleasant and make a customized outstanding cup of coffee. However today, I am sad to say, I had a bad experience. I received my [...]
In the great tradition of artists such as Roger Waters and Erykah Badu, once again Israeli producers will be inviting a musician who will come perform in Israel, take our money and then ignorantly criticize our policies (granted, some of our policies suck, but we don’t need no education from performers who know close to [...]

So I leave the house this morning to go physical therapy at around 7:45. The streets were empty and the entire city had a nice, relaxed vibe. All this changed rather quickly. After spending a half hour stretching on a bouncy ball I exited the building and it looked like the world was going to [...]
Ziggy Marley will be performing next week despite the fighting in the north and despite the marijuana and hash draught. Bet he has a good hook up in Tel Aviv. His original venue was Achziv beach just south of Nahariya, so they ended up moving it to Ra’anana. Major respect for him coming. All eyes [...]
Back from the ROI120 conference. Well rested after a full week of incessant Jewish talking. The sounds of silence was indeed needed and thank goodness, a weekend of solid sleep was accomplished.
