Lena Dunham and Taylor Swift are Officially Besties

Lena Dunham and Taylor Swift may seem like an unlikely pairing, but just think about it: they’ve both made successful careers out of thinly-veiled portrayals of their love lives, Swift in her 1,000,000 songs about being wronged by men and Dunham by flashing her pseudo-fictionalized life (and naked body) all over HBO. So it sort of makes sense that these ladies would get along. A few years back, Dunham had this to say about Swift: “I feel like she and I are artistic kindred spirits. She may not know …More

Book Review: ‘Jujitsu Rabbi and the Godless Blonde’

The title sounds like the setup of a raunchy joke told only by tipsy college grads in the back of New York City dive bars. But newly released memoir “Jujitsu Rabbi and the Godless Blonde” is anything but a punch line. Chronicling the painful year following a major breakup in the life of fashion worshiper and journalist Rebecca Dana, the book reads like a heartfelt conversation held over five bottles of cheap wine and Ruffle chips. Dana attempts to move on from her heartbreak by taking a cheap room in …More

They walked up a tree-lined path through stony hills to a square, white building--men in black hats, beards and frock coats; in T-shirts and jeans; in sweaters, slacks and velvet kippahs. They came by the hundreds--19-year-olds looking for a match, 40-year-olds losing hope that they would ever find one, boys of 15 praying for the unmarried. They had come for a special ceremony: They would blow 1,000 shofars, encircle the building seven times and recite penitential prayers led by a master of Jewish mysticism. …More
