Civility in Times of Economic Turmoil
Being let go from your job can be difficult, stressful and surprising all at once. It is perfectly acceptable to take some time to process what has happened and cope with it appropriately.
Keep Traveling. Just Smarter and Safer.
Over several decades I've traveled to more than a hundred countries, often alone. Many of them were challenging and so-called third world, but I've gotten through incipient coups and typhoons without major incident.
Stampedes, Shootings and Bargains
This morning the news features stories of a stressed economy, but that takes second place to the smashing in of a Wal-Mart door by gluttonous Americans seeking deals on X-Box toys.

In this (quite literally) transcendental production of Ivanov, all conventional staging is completely abandoned.
Puffy Coats That Will (And Won't) Make You Look Fat

The turkey's finally digested and another online shopping season is in high gear, so with your indulgence here's my plug for New Orleans Musicians Relief Fund merchandise.
Mother India
I had gone to India as so many had, to find a spiritual teacher, to find a meditation method -- really to find myself. It became my spiritual home. For years I couldn't imagine living anywhere else.
Thanksgiving and Then What?
I worship those who donate their time and money to help others. But I have no words for the concept of shoppers trampling a store employee and fellow shoppers to make the most of Black Friday.
