Danny DeVito’s Blood Factory…
Published under Funnies, Media and Alternative Media, OneVoice Movement, PeaceWorks Foundation Jul 20, 2009A few people are funnier and sweeter in real life than in their hilarious comedic personas. Danny DeVito is such a person. Here is a new quirky project from Danny, our friend and Board member in the Foundation, courtesy of Rhea Perlman, the only person on earth who is even funnier than Danny. Watch till the end…

Similarities between Seinfeld and Mideast Conflict
Published under Funnies, Israel, Mideast Negotiations, Movies, OneVoice Movement, Palestine Jun 24, 2009Our amazing friend Jason Alexander, whose George Costanza character in Seinfeld is the furthest thing different from the real Jason, spoke to OneVoice youth earlier today about the Imagine 2018 essay and film project and caught a ton of media attention.
It cracks me up how amazing stuff happens every day by ordinary Israelis and Palestinians but never gets media coverage. It takes a celebrity to get attention for moderates.
Below is a good article from Ha’aretz and a video from Jerusalem Online that covers the meeting.

Lost in Translation: Pocari Sweat
Published under Funnies, Marketing, New Product Development May 24, 2009I remember this brand from when I lived a summer in Japan. They have a drink named "Pocari Sweat" and it is a best seller. Sweat?! Apparently in Japan, perspiration is associated with rejuvenating freshness. Now here is a line extension for Pocari Sweat in powder form. Mmmm.
Very serious matter. Listen to this!
