    • Create A Blockbase Child Theme November 17, 2021
      We have been working on a plugin to help you create a Blockbase child theme. The idea is that you can use the existing tools to make changes to a Blockbase theme, and then export a bundle of templates and theme.json as a new child theme. I tried to create a new theme called “Typewriter” […]

    TO HATER OR NOT TO HATER

    Is it possible to NOT have haters? And if so…what is the secret formula to living a hater free life? Well, in my short (or long, however you want to look at it) 36 years I’ve encountered my fair share of haters. I’ve seen haters in action more times than I can count and I have occasionally and shamefully dabbled in hate. (Masked as gossip) I think to crack the code you first have to answer the age-old question: What makes haters hate? Google anyone in the history of the universe who has ever done anything out of the ordinary and they will have their share of haters. They could’ve graced every cover of sports illustrated, they could’ve won 12 Oscars, they could’ve given...

    My Fantasy Passover Guest

    Recently I was hired by Jewcier.com to create an image depicting “The Last Supper” but with a twist. The table would be a seder table and would seat famous Celebrity Jews whom we would love to have as guests. I found this job quite fun to do and here is the result: Now without a doubt my dream guest would be Jon Stewart (which is probably why I depicted him center in the above image). He is just plain hysterical and I could only imagine his very entertaining thoughts about Passover during the very long seder. So when I came across this recent clip of Jon Stewart discussing Passover vs. Easter I was really excited. And it didn’t disappoint. In fact it’s...

    5 Proven Techniques for Building up Your Facebook Page

    As a small business owner you are probably pulled in a thousand different directions running your business. You'll often find yourself being your own marketer, salesperson, webmaster, and accountant, which can be stressful, especially when you want to be at the forefront of your company. It can be hard to determine what you need to devote your time to, for example, do you need to get more office stationery from an office stationery near me, or do you need to focus more on ways to help your business grows? Often this is something which would be better in someone else's hands; for example, perhaps your accountancy and bookkeeping needs are best handled by professionals that you can find online. You...

    NEW Facebook Timeline for Brands Are On The Way!

    Facebook has officially announced Timeline for brand pages after dangling the carrot in front of page admins for some time now. The pages will be pushed live to everyone on March 30, but for now, you have some time to preview the new look and review your page before the changes take effect. When Facebook switched to this timeline format for my personal profile, at first I didn’t like it. It’s always hard getting used to new things when you are quite satisfied with how it worked before. If it aint broke, why fix it? Within days I forgot what the old profiles looked like and I began to appreciate the new format and addition of a “cover” image. Now Facebook is unrolling...

    A Tribute to Moms! Behind the scenes…

    So this is a story that only happens to me. It’s 11pm on a tuesday night and my dear friend Leora Mishan calls to ask me what I’m doing tomorrow. “uhhh…working?” I answer. “Can you play a mom in a Charlie Harari video?” She asks. “uhhh…what?” She explains that the producers are in desperate need for a mom and she needs to be available from 9am -7pm the next day. She assured me that it’s not a speaking part, just everyday actions that Moms do and that it’s a tribute to Moms. And Oh yeah, Wissotsky Tea is sponsoring it. I say I’d consider and by midnight I’m on the phone with Margelit Hoffman, wife and partner to Shmuel Hoffman who also directed of the...

    Most Ironic Story Evah!!!!!

    (Written May 11 2012) So a week ago I get an email from Kiss & Makeup telling me that as a thank you they want to give me and a select few, a free Eyebrow Shaping and gift on May 11. I’m thinking…that’s so nice! Maybe because I’m their web designer and they appreciate all my good work….. Either way I was pleased. I set up an appointment for 4:15pm on that day knowing I had a 2:30pm appt with my ENT to figure out what’s up with my lost voice. Three weeks before I had lost my voice and it never came back. I go to my Dr. and am told I have nodules on my vocal chords and if I...

    Social Media is no longer a hobby. It’s a required tool for store owners.

    by http://www.1choice4yourstore.com/july-2011-news.html Do you remember the first time you heard the word social media? How about the first time you heard the name Facebook? Where were you when you heard about the first tweet? No matter where you were or how you heard about them, I bet you never imagined that you could be using these "tools" for your business. Yet, social media has evolved and your customers are on Facebook, they are tweeting, they are blogging, they are reading seo blogs that accept guest posts, they are watching videos, and they are connecting with multiple companies every day. That's why an online presence is so important for businesses trying to grow their client base. For smaller businesses and more...
