Despite the well-established American loathing of politicians as a class, everything seems to get named after them. (Everything public, that is. In the private, semiprivate, and nonprofit sectors, marquees tend to feature big donors and, increasingly, big corporations. Citi Field, indeed.) Politicians who get elected President have pride of place. Here in New York, besides Washington and his Square (and his Bridge), we have Madison and his Square (and his Avenue), Lincoln and his Center (and his Tunnel), and Roosevelt and his Island (and his Drive). Lesser pols don't fare too badly, either. Besides LaGuardia and his Airport, there's Foley Square, the downtown plaza bounded by imposing halls of justice. It honors Thomas F. (Big Tom) Foley (1852-1925), a prominent alderman, saloonkeeper, and Tammany Hall sachem. The Tweed Courthouse is a stone's throw away. But what about the writers? Where are the monumental public works, the great public spaces, dedicated to the likes of Emerson and Twain, Edgar Allan Poe and Harriet Beecher Stowe, James Thurber and James Baldwin? New York has a Thomas E. Dewey Thruway. Couldn't we at least have a John Dewey Rest Stop? Will scribblers never get their due?
Well, yes—a little. At some point in the only slightly distant future, this deplorable imbalance will be, quite noticeably, altered. The backstory begins in 1964, when, in an incomprehensible act of civic vandalism, Pennsylvania Station was torn down. Its replacement—the third and least distinguished iteration of Madison (him again!) Square Garden—did not remotely compensate for the loss of one of the world's grandest railway palaces. The trains and their passengers were relegated to grimy basements. "New Yorkers were left with a subway station when there had once been the Baths of Caracalla," a certain writer recalled thirty years later.
This week, after years of false starts and bureaucratic tangles, a modest groundbreaking ceremony will be held for a project that will go some distance to righting this great wrong. The reincarnation of Penn Station will occupy and transform the body of the monumental Farley Post Office, across Eighth Avenue from the original station and, like the original, a creation of McKim, Mead & White, the heroic architectural firm of a century ago. When the place opens for business, it will carry the name of a writer—the writer quoted above. It will be called Moynihan Station.
To be sure, this honor is not being bestowed upon the shade of Daniel Patrick Moynihan (1927-2003) because he was a writer. It is bestowed because he was a politician—in this instance, a highly effective, bring-home-the-bacon, jobs-for-the-boys politician. He originated the project and, as a senator from New York, used the powers of his office to push for it relentlessly, year after year. True, he might never have had the idea were it not for his contemplative, professorial side—he was, after all, a former director of the Harvard-M.I.T. Joint Center for Urban Studies. But his success in bringing it off was due rather more to his professional kinship with Big Tom Foley. Or with James A. Farley, F.D.R.'s patronage chief, whose name will be displaced by his own on the repurposed building's façade.
Nevertheless, Pat Moynihan was, first, last, and always, a writer. "When I was five years old, I asked my mother, what does Dad do?" his daughter, Maura, recalls in a charming afterword to a splendid new book. "She replied, he's a writer. And he was: he wrote every day—even at Christmas—articles, books, speeches, and, in great abundance, letters." You might say he wrote his way to power. Without the writing, no foot-in-the-door job in John F. Kennedy's Labor Department (and no influence once he was there), no high domestic-policy post in Richard Nixon's White House, no ambassadorships to India and the United Nations, no twenty-four years in the Senate—and no Moynihan Station.
A book appeared every other year or so. There were more than a score in all, many of them banged out during summer breaks in an old one-room schoolhouse at the Moynihans' upstate rural retreat. The author's subjects were the statesman's passions: poverty, especially in relation to family breakdown; the persistence of ethnicity; the limits, errors, and necessity of social policy; in matters of war and peace, liberal illusions and conservative excesses. The new book is different: the familiar Moynihanian themes are echoed throughout, but this time it's all about him.
"Daniel Patrick Moynihan: A Portrait in Letters of an American Visionary" (PublicAffairs; $35) will probably be read more widely and for longer, and certainly with greater pleasure, than any of the others on the Moynihan shelf. Besides the letters (to a range of correspondents stretching from John Lennon and John Updike to Rajiv Gandhi and the socks department at Brooks Brothers), there are memorandums (many to the four Presidents he served, Lyndon Johnson and Gerald Ford being the others), notes to himself summarizing conversations he considered important, and entries from his private journal, which include some delightful travel writing.
Apart from the periodic "Dear New Yorker" letters he franked to a mailing list of constituents, none of this material was written explicitly for publication. But nearly all of it suggests an awareness, sometimes a hope, that it might sooner or later find readers beyond those to whom it was addressed—a category that may or may not include a 1989 "MOST CONFIDENTIAL" letter to the admissions committee of his beloved Century Club. In a bid to blackball Pamela Harriman, the socially active widow of an early political patron of his, Averell Harriman, Moynihan wrote, "It is depressing to say this, but I would find it difficult to enter the Century were there any prospect of this person being there." The person got in anyway; the Senator remained a club fixture. Not for the first time, Moynihan's advice was rejected; not for the last, he carried on regardless.
The Moynihan papers are the largest one-man collection in the Library of Congress—ten thousand pages, enough to lay a paper trail from the White House to the Capitol. From this mother lode of foolscap, the journalist Steven R. Weisman has sculpted a work of coherence and energy. Weisman, who covered Moynihan for the Times in New York, Washington, and New Delhi, and knew him well for decades, introduces the book with a lively essay that is part biography, part political and psychological analysis, part appreciation, and part personal reminiscence. "What I found in editing these letters," Weisman writes, "is not so much a different Moynihan, but a Moynihan more passionate, intimate, vulnerable, combative, and perhaps more self-absorbed than the one seen by the public."
As it happens, I (speaking of self-absorption!) once spent a convivial cocktail hour with him and Sidney Blumenthal, then the Washington correspondent for this magazine, in the Senator's hideaway office in the Capitol building. The lamplight was warm, the curtains drawn, the leather and mahogany dark. Out came the Scotch and the Marlboros. The corpse of Soviet Communism had barely cooled at the time, and our talk wandered from the causes of its demise to the radicalism of New York intellectuals in the nineteen-thirties and forties—the Communists, their fellow-travellers, their socialist and Trotskyist enemies—and thence to the curious ways in which the influence of those lingering enmities is still felt. As a writer for small magazines like Commentary and The Reporter, and later for The Public Interest, Moynihan had been acquainted with many of the participants and their subsequent ideological meanderings, some of which mirrored his own. Seersucker jacket off but bow tie still in place, he held forth in his inimitable (if often parodied) manner: the "ah-ah-ahs," the staccato bursts, the random pauses, the arrhythmic rhythms. He was the John Cage of conversation. After our drink, he took us for a ride on the Senate's Toonerville trolley, a toylike, rubber-tired subway with open-topped cars, which glides between the Capitol and the Russell Office Building. As the little train began to move, Moynihan stood up in the very front, assumed a heroic stance, and, pointing toward the destination, cried, "To the Finland Station!"
Our fellow-passengers, well-scrubbed young aides and one or two dim-looking senators, chuckled nervously or simply looked baffled. I pondered that moment as I read this book. Weisman takes note of Moynihan's "wit and sparkle" and his "gift for flattery." The former were certainly on display at that moment, but so was the latter. We were flattered—at least I was—not only by Moynihan's willingness to make a spectacle of himself for our amusement but also by his assumption that we would "get" his allusions: Lenin; "socialist realist" portraiture; the sealed train to St. Petersburg in 1917; Edmund Wilson. That the other passengers apparently didn't get it added a hint of gleeful snobbery to our pleasure, as I suspect he knew it would. A bit of harmless fun, that time. But in more consequential situations he was an instinctive master of the art. He knew how to flatter you high and he knew how to flatter you low. And when he set out to manipulate his interlocutors he generally did so in the service of some noble goal, sincerely held. He was anything but a cynic.
Throughout his adult life, Pat Moynihan was part of so many different and opposing worlds that having it both ways was almost a way of life for him, for good and for ill. He was a streetwise Irish lad shining shoes for dimes in Times Square who adopted the vocabulary ("perforce," "at all events," "of a sudden") and tweedy wardrobe of a dandified Oxford don. He was an occasionally observant if less than pious Catholic who became part of that circle of secular, mostly Jewish New York intellectuals whose style of thought and expression, if not their current politics, was rooted in the polemics of the kind of exotic Marxist radicalisms that never tempted him. He was a cradle-to-grave Democrat who held his highest appointive offices in Republican administrations. Within the Democratic Party, he had the id of a regular and the superego of a reformer. He was a conservative among liberals and a liberal among conservatives. He was a social scientist who did politics and a politician who did social science. He craved the quiet security of academic life but repeatedly abandoned it for the risks and tumults of public office. It's not that he was neither here nor there; it's that he was both.
These tensions and crosscuttings make for a stimulating book, just as they made for an adventurous mind and an eventful life. The tensions were more often creative than crippling. Moynihan's doubleness was a powerful spur to the originality that marked his thinking on public policy. It was the bedrock of his genuine independence, intellectual and political. He was commonly called a centrist and had no particular objection to the label. But he was no mere splitter of differences. He did not discover his ideas by averaging the distance between the ideas of others. He was more apt to take a leap outside the existing spectrum of choices. "I find myself once more in that pitiable role of the meliorist," he observed dryly in a 1990 letter to a journalist friend. But, of course, Moynihan's meliorism had a Moynihan twist. The letter was about his ingenious effort to re-start the stalled debate on gun control by shifting the focus to what comes out of the barrel. "Guns don't kill people, bullets do" was his summary—the sort of tart coinage he was famous for ("defining deviancy down"; "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion but not to his own facts"). His most dizzying leaps had a way of falling short of a safe landing. His audacious Family Assistance Plan of 1969, which would have guaranteed a cash income to the poor as a matter of right, persuaded a Republican President but not a Democratic Congress. In the Senate, his largeness of vision produced no grand piece of landmark legislation; there is no Moynihan equivalent of the Wagner Act. With guns, though, he had a modest success with a modest idea, guiding to passage a ban on so-called cop-killer bullets—"the first law ever to outlaw a round of ammunition," he noted with satisfaction.
Originality and independence were one side of Moynihan's doubleness; the other was the way it invited mistrust and misunderstanding, the consequences of which, to judge from the letters, preoccupied him increasingly over time. A volatile, Jekyll-Hyde dynamic lights up "A Portrait in Letters" like the poles of a battery. Especially when two phenomena—Nixon and, later, neoconservatism—enter the picture, the sparks fly.
The Nixon years were Moynihan's apotheosis as a flatterer. In 1968, he campaigned for Robert Kennedy and endorsed Hubert Humphrey, but he began to "reach out" (a phrase he would have despised) to their nemesis months before the nominating conventions. With the election a week away—and three weeks after admonishing a top aide to President Johnson to "have no fear" that he would accept a job with the enemy—he writes a Heepish letter. "Dear Mr. Nixon: I was greatly impressed by your radio address on the subject of employment. . . ." Once ensconced in the victor's White House as Assistant to the President for Urban Affairs, he unleashed a stream of memorandums that played his new boss—whose aspirational insecurities, base resentments, and longing to flummox the critics he well understood—like a Stradivarius.
It was (and is) unusual for a President, especially an egghead-baiting Republican held in near-universal contempt by academics and intellectuals, to receive long, elegantly written interoffice memos packed with literary allusions, sociological erudition, and asides like "Thanks to a conversation with Erik Erikson (who is surely the most significant psychiatrist since Freud) I believe I have an answer." There are sarcastic shots at smug liberals, too, of course—shots that he had his own reasons to take, quite apart from the tactic of massaging Nixon's rancors. Moynihan was still smarting from the response, four years earlier, to "The Negro Family: The Case for National Action"—the so-called Moynihan Report, which he had written for Johnson, and which prominent liberals, black and white, had obtusely attacked as an exercise in blaming the victim. (In truth, he had blamed the vicious legacy of slavery.) But Moynihan's purpose in his memos to Nixon is always clear. They are earnest, passionate tutorials aimed at coaxing and harrying him to take the lead in renewing, and recasting, the assault on poverty, especially black poverty, which had started and sputtered under the previous Administration.
The Vietnam War made the late nineteen-sixties and early seventies a bitter and contentious time. Moynihan hoped that the new President would reverse Johnson's escalations. Though he disdained what he called, in a memo dated April 15, 1969, "the elemental dishonesty and outrageousness of so much of the provocation from the left," he thought the war a disaster and told Nixon so. "Unless I am mistaken," he wrote in that same memo, "America has 'lost' its first war: Four years, $65 billion, and 212,022 casualties have not enabled the most powerful nation on earth to overcome the resistance of a vastly out-gunned, out-numbered enemy." A month later, he ended a long domestic-policy memo—about adopting a nonracial "income strategy" to combat black poverty and white working-class backlash—with a plea: "I don't have to say again that the one indispensable step to doing that is to get us out of Vietnam, and on this you have my prayers and respect."
His prayers went unanswered, and the universities—Moynihan's world, or one of them—resumed their revolt against the war. More or less alone in the Nixon circle, Moynihan understood that revolt and, strikingly, sympathized with it. He agonized over its slide toward an angry rejection of American society and deplored the Administration's role in stoking that anger. He begged his colleagues to distinguish between the mainstream protesters and "the extreme elements in the 'peace movement.' " The day after the student-led demonstrations of October 15, 1969, he reported on it to Nixon:
The Moratorium was a success. It was not perhaps as big as some may have anticipated—"substantial but not enormous," in David Brinkley's words—but in style and content it was everything the organizers could have hoped for. The young white middle class crowds were sweet tempered and considerate: at times even radiant. (Really. The only term by which to describe the march past the White House is joyous.) The movement lost no friends. It gained, I should think, a fair number of recruits and a great deal of prestige. By the time the Watergate scandal erupted, after the 1972 election, Moynihan was in New Delhi. In a long, anguished, stream-of-consciousness letter to the Harvard sociologist Nathan Glazer, with whom he had collaborated on "Beyond the Melting Pot," a pioneering book on ethnicity, he poured out frustrations, regrets, rationalizations, feelings of betrayal and guilt. "Have I been a fool or a whore or both? Or perhaps something quite different; something perhaps to be forgiven." When the President resigned, the Ambassador convened the Embassy staff and improvised a sad, wise, eloquent speech. Nixon's actions, he said,
were impeachable acts. They were subsumed under the headings of "high crimes and misdemeanors." The President acknowledged this. That in the jury of his peers that would be so held, and so there need be no question of anybody being railroaded, or an election being stolen, or of a man being destroyed unbetimes. . . . We have been spared the sense of the spectacle of a President holding to his office long past the point of the public's wishing him to do so. "God save us from labels," Moynihan wrote to the social critic Christopher Lasch. The label in question was one he disliked so much that he preferred to put it between quotation marks (as if handling it with a pair of tweezers) and to insert a hyphen (as if to deny it the dignity of being a real word). He explained its origins in a 1979 letter to Peter Steinfels, of the liberal, lay Catholic magazine Commonweal:
I take it that just now "neo-conservatism" is all the rage. This will be reassuringly alarming news to a great many persons of the sort you and I will tend to know. But would you consider that the far more significant effect is likely to be much less complicated. A good many persons of open mind and friendly mien will simply learn that the smartest people these days are something called Neo-conservatives, and adapt their own dispositions accordingly.
Is it a service to liberalism to encourage this? Irving [Kristol] and a few others apart, none of us is a conservative. We are liberals much as John F. Kennedy was liberal. A bit more so. The term "neo-conservative" was coined in epithet. One "fraction" of the socialist democrats having been expelled by another "fraction," the expelled "fraction" promptly labeled the new controlling group to be "neo-conservative." A familiar enough business.
To John Updike, in 1992, he put it more pithily:
For getting on to forty years I have been involved with a group of persons who in the 1970s got labeled—from the left—neo-conservatives. All had thought themselves liberals (if not Trotskyites) up to that point, and much confusion has followed.
Reading "A Portrait," one can see why Moynihan was so insistent on resisting both the label and the "disposition" it came to represent. Unlike some of the early (and actual) neoconservatives, he had never been a radical; he was immune from ideological euphoria. Like Glazer, Daniel Bell, and Seymour Martin Lipset—other putative "neo-conservatives" who never went off the deep end, so to speak—he was grounded in empirical social science, and his earliest passion was for domestic policy. His quarrels with liberals and liberalism were sometimes rancorous, but they did not turn on any fundamental disagreement about the ultimate destination. In one of several letters protesting being tagged with the label he scorned, he wrote:
Those of us who began writing on these matters in the 1960's were fully in agreement with all that liberalism was attempting. But we began to worry as to whether we would bring it off. This kind of critique was much too often greeted as a renunciation of goals rather than an inquiry as to means. Moynihan was the only one of his intellectual circle who ever ran for, and won, high public office. In 1976, the year he was elected to the Senate, he was close to the hawkish wing of the Democratic Party—he went to the Convention as a delegate for Henry (Scoop) Jackson—but he built his own nest in the aviary. As America's representative at the United Nations, he waged fierce diplomatic and rhetorical battle against the Soviet Union. But he did not share the neoconservative fear that the Soviets were somehow stronger than the United States and its democratic allies. As early as 1979, he publicly predicted that the Soviet Union would collapse from internal stresses. Writing to John Chancellor, of NBC, in the redolent year of 1984, he argued that a sensible strategy
must begin with the central fact of Soviet failure. They cannot modernize their economy. They cannot expect to keep their empire together. Etc. Therefore, they will decline. Therefore our strategy should be to permit this decline to go forward without erupting into one last spasmodic effort to restore their fortunes by seizing the Gulf, or striking Western Europe, or even launching a first strike against the United States. . . . We must, in effect, manage the Soviet decline, and particularly assure them that we have no intention of trying to hasten it.
He dismissed the C.I.A.'s—and, by extension, the neoconservatives'—obsession with the supposed threat of Communism in Nicaragua. ("They saw the Marxists there as a new wave," he wrote to George Mitchell. "When they were a last gasp. When an idea dies in Madrid it takes two generations for word to get to Managua.") In his final decade in the Senate, he advocated a foreign policy based on strengthening international law. Neoconservatives hold the very phrase in contempt.
If Moynihan were still alive, he would be eighty-three. One can't help speculating about what he would have made of the recent past. Like Orwell, the Bible, and the Federalist Papers, "Daniel Patrick Moynihan: A Portrait in Letters of an American Visionary" can be quoted to serve any number of agendas. But I find it hard to believe that he would have been an enthusiast of the invasion and occupation of Iraq. Despite his admiration and affection for the first President Bush, he had opposed the 1991 Gulf War, advocating harsh economic sanctions instead, and his experience on the Senate Intelligence Committee had taught him to be skeptical of "intelligence." He would have angrily denounced the use of torture, as a gross violation of elementary morality and of domestic and international law. He would have had no patience for global-warming denialism; a White House memo he wrote in 1969—1969!—explained the problem ("The process is a simple one. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has the effect of a pane of glass in a greenhouse") and urged the Administration to tackle it. He would have joyfully welcomed Barack Obama's election as, among other things, a vindication of his own hopes for progress toward racial equality—even if, soon enough, he might have been heard to harrumph that the new President was letting health-care reform get in the way of a full-on Keynesian attack on unemployment. Well, we'll never know. We'll have to settle for knowing that, one day, we'll be able to hop in a cab and cry: To the Moynihan Station! ♦

Today both the The Washington Post and The New York Times have front-page stories on Sen. Tom Coburn's (R-Okla.) use of legislative "holds" to bring debate on spending priorities back to the U.S. Senate. A "hold" prevents the majority party in the Senate from moving forward on a bill until it has been debated. But in this Congress, the liberal majority does not want to debate issues or allow amendments.
Of the 890 bills that have been passed in the 110th Congress, only 50 of them have been debated. For simply insisting that the Senate debate a bill before it is passed, Coburn has been labeled "Dr. No" by both the Post and Times. If Coburn is Dr. No, then he is a Dr. No our country desperately needs.
Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) tells the Post, "For those of you who may not know this, you cannot negotiate with Coburn. It's just something that you learn over the years … its a waste of time." But the Times disagrees, reporting:
Even some Democrats have a grudging admiration for Mr. Coburn's determination. They point out that Mr. Coburn has shown an occasional willingness to make concessions, as he did after long months of effort with Senator Edward M. Kennedy, Democrat of Massachusetts, on a genetic nondiscrimination law. And he has worked with Senator Barack Obama of Illinois, a fact that the Democratic presidential candidate has proudly referred to when talking about his ability to reach across the aisle.
Frustrated with Coburn's insistence on debate, Reid has bundled 35 separate bills, each with at least one Republican co-sponsor, into one omnibus bill. Reid hopes Coburn's GOP colleagues will force him to relent. So far Coburn is holding firm: "I am OK taking the consternation of my colleagues. I take my oath seriously." Coburn is quick to point out he doesn't even oppose much of the spending in the bills. He just wants to see other federal spending reduced so that our already record deficit does not get worse.
Coburn, for example, supports a bill that spends money creating a new Justice Department cold-case unit that would investigate unsolved civil rights cases. But Coburn believes we should pay for that new unit by cutting back on Justice Department spending on conferences. The department has spent $312 million on conferences this decade. Reid will not allow Coburn to offer this amendment.
When Reid isn't claiming that Coburn refuses to negotiate, he falls back on the claim that the bills in question only authorize money, and that no money is actually spent until an appropriations bill is passed. Coburn ably exposes the blatantly dishonest game senators play when they deploy this argument:
Now, you will hear the argument over the next 10 days to 2 weeks, as we debate this bill, that these are just authorizations, that it is not money that is actually spent until it is appropriated. But if you go to the Web site of all of the Senators who are supporting these bills, they have already sent out press releases bragging about what they have done. They intend to spend the money. So one of three things comes about from that. One is they plan on authorizing it and spending the money; two is they are just gaming their constituency, they are planning on passing the bill but never spending the money, which is highly unlikely, or three is they just want on the bill so they can get a positive parochial benefit and do not really care whether the money gets spent.
In 2006, Coburn introduced the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act, which requires the full disclosure of all entities or organizations receiving federal funds. Obama and Sen. John McCain both co-sponsored the bill so that Americans could better hold government accountable for wasteful spending. But that database will be useless unless our elected leaders also have the opportunity to debate and vote to end that wasteful spending. Let's hope Dr. No wins the fight to have those debates.
Quick Hits:
- According to the Associated Press, in Iraq the United States is now winning the war that two years ago seemed lost.
- Barack Obama told Newsweek that his 16-month timetable for troop withdrawal is "entirely conditions-based."
- Virginia has implemented a law that requires jail officials to notify federal authorities of all foreign-born inmates regardless of their immigration status.
- According to the Los Angeles Times, the stimulus checks Congress authorized have "done little to boost [consumer] confidence in the economy."
- According to Rasmussen Reports, 71% of American believe suspected terrorists should be tried by military tribunals rather than in U.S. courts.

Possible Solutions
Does your water filter need to be replaced?
A clogged or incorrectly installed water filter will reduce the water flow to the ice maker, which will result in thin ice cubes or low ice production. If the refrigerator has a water dispenser, check for a problem with the filter by doing the following:
- Dispense water using the water dispenser and note the amount of water flow.
- Remove the filter. The filter is located either in the base grille or inside the refrigerator compartment.
- Dispense water with the filter removed. If the water flow noticeably increases, the filter is either clogged or incorrectly installed. A clogged filter will need to be replaced in order to correct the low flow.
To purchase water filters, visit EveryDropWater.com. Their filter selection tool will help you identify the right filter for your refrigerator or icemaker.

We really liked the two tone colors and they were fairly easy to put on, it takes a few days for the vinyl to soften to the seats but they will and are very comfortable and improved the look of the truck tremendously. I would highly recommend them if looking for an option instead of buying or recovering your existing seats. My friend put them over his seats in his new truck as a protection device. Very impressed and will buy other items in the future.

Following the success of "Glee's" "Power of Madonna" episode, series creator Ryan Murphy says he's hoping to do more themed episodes, including music industry powerhouses like Britney Spears and Courtney Love.
According to EW, Ryan is eyeing themed episodes surrounding the music of the pop princess and the rocker mom – along with piano man Billy Joel and rock gods Led Zeppelin.
"I'm interested in the Britney Spears idea. I've always loved her. I'm entertaining it. I think young kids would like that," he told the mag.
His comments come on the heels of a Twitter campaign launched last week by Britney's manager, Adam Leber, who posted a message offering up the pop princess' music for the hit FOX show.
"Do you guys want to see a Britney Spears episode of GLEE?" Adam Tweeted last week, following that by launching the Twitter trending topic #BritneySpearsGLEE.
As far as Courtney Love, Ryan said the Hole frontwoman is looking to go "Glee."
"I actually ran into Courtney Love the other day and talked to her," he said. "She's interested. I would love to have the kids do a Courtney Love episode one day…The key is the songs in the catalogue have to have a certain degree of theatricality."
He also revealed that Madge was very pleased with her episode.
"She said how much she loved the episode," Ryan said. "She thought it was brilliant and she's so pleased. Her daughter got to watch it with her and loved it. [Madonna's] a smart cookie. I mean that introduced her music to an entire new generation."

Reproduction of original painting: scene from the " the thirty six views of Fuji " 1858.
PG REPRODUCTIONS, Fine Art Prints on Demand, offers the very finest masterpiece reproductions, excellent gifts for all occasions. The why and wherefore of art reproductions: How are the arts in all its forms and fancies to make friends with the working multitude? National galleries and museums sheltering the best, or municipal ones sheltering the rest, are not much good to those passing through their corridors. For the first they rarely go near them; or if they do they stiffen themselves into another being as they stroll among the elegant halls to see the wonders. Perhaps they have had no introduction to the masterpieces through home, school, or church. Every phase of art has its judges; every artist his applauding clique. However...
Our return policy is very simple:
If you're not happy with a purchase that you made on FineArtAmerica.com, for any reason, you can return it to us within 30 days of the order date. As soon as it arrives, we'll issue a full refund for the entire purchase price. Please note - Fine Art America does not reimburse the outgoing or return shipping charges unless the return is due to a defect in quality.
Fine Art America sells thousands of pieces of artwork each month - all with a 100% money-back guarantee. We take great pride in the fact that hundreds of thousands of artists have chosen Fine Art America to fulfill their orders, and we look forward to helping you select your next piece!

|Antiochian Archdiocese
The Antiochian Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia and New Zealand, with headquarters in Sydney, is an archdiocese of the Church of Antioch. Its current primate is His Eminence Paul (Saliba), Metropolitan Archbishop of Australia and New Zealand.
- Full article: History of Antiochian Orthodoxy in Australasia
The first wave of Syrian (now Lebanese) immigration was in the 1880-1890s, where work was found in hawking and peddling goods in the country areas of the eastern states of Australia. The first place of worship was usually in the state capital cities of Sydney and Melbourne, with a Greek speaking priest who also spoke Arabic and sometimes Russian too. The Antiochian Orthodox faithful took part in the construction of both Surry Hills, Sydney, and Holy Annunciation, Melbourne.
Due to the problems concerning the 1899 election of an Arab Patriarch of Antioch, and the decision of the Church of Constantinople to give jurisdiction of diaspora parishes to the Church of Greece with the sole use of Ecclesiastical Greek, Syrian participation in services halted aside from sacraments.
Up until the founding of an Antiochian Orthodox Diocese, there were three Antiochian Orthodox churches in Australasia: St George, Sydney (founding priest: Fr Nicholas Shehadie, exarch); St Nicholas, Melbourne (founding priest: Archim. Antonious); and St Michael, Dunedin (founding priest: Hmk Nicholas (Manovitch) These churches, founded in the 1920s and 1930s, continued to be the only Antiochian Orthodox parishes in Australasia through the period of the Exarchate.
In 1969, the Church of Antioch sent Archimandrite Gibran (Ramlawey) to Australia as Patriarchal Exarch to find the best way to solve problems caused by two priests having to serve every Antiochian Orthodox in Australia. On his recommendations, the Diocese of Australia and New Zealand was created, and Archimandrite Gibran was elected as Patriarchal Vicar.
Two parishes were created very soon after his arrival - St Nicholas, Punchbowl, NSW was created as a result of Bp Gibran's directive, and St George, Thornbury, Vic. was created as a result of tensions caused by differing waves of immigrants.
The late 1980s saw some growth in parishes. In 1985, a parish was created in Mays Hill, NSW; 1989 saw the first parish committee for a church in Brisbane, Qld.
In 1999, Bp Gibran reposed. The Holy Synod of Antioch, having raised Australia and New Zealand to an Archdiocese, consecrated Archim. Paul (Saliba), the Antiochian Orthodox parish priest of St. George Church in Washington DC, as the Metropolitan Archbishop of the new Archdiocese.
Met. Abp. Paul decided to create more churches. He prompted the building of the church of St Paul, Brisbane and created an English-language parish in Sydney. Between his arrival and the end of 2006, there have been 13 new missions and parishes created.

A consortium of Northeastern states including Maryland has agreed to reset a power plant emissions cap to current levels and to tighten it annually starting in 2015, an action officials said would increase investment in energy efficiency and slightly raise electricity prices, besides cutting pollution.
The change amounts to a 45 percent reduction in the cap's ceiling, which has far exceeded actual pollution levels because of improved energy efficiency, increased renewable power generation, mild weather and the slumping economy. The Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative announced Thursday that its nine member states had agreed to the cut, with input from other stakeholders.
Environmental advocates and business leaders both welcomed the revision, saying it would strengthen efforts to address climate change and reward investment in clean energy. Some said the first-in-the-nation cap-and-trade initiative, known by its acronym RGGI, could also prompt more action to cut carbon emissions on a national level, as President Barack Obama has vowed to make climate change a top priority of his second term.
"They're locking in the reductions that have taken place to date and ensuring that RGGI will continue to drive reductions in pollution going forward," said Peter Shattuck, director of market initiatives for Environment Northeast, a Maine-based advocacy group. "It's noteworthy especially now as Obama has been re-elected, and in the wake of [Superstorm] Sandy, for RGGI states to get out and lead on this. They are helping cause the pendulum to swing back on climate."
The initiative launched in 2008, requiring power plants to buy carbon dioxide emissions allowances `in regular auctions. The initial cap was set so loose that it allowed plants to buy allowances at low prices and save them for future needs. Over the past few years, allowance auction prices have declined along with emissions levels and electricity prices.
The new cap reduces the 2014 emissions cap from 165 million tons of carbon dioxide to 91 million tons — about what was expected to be the emissions total for 2012. The cap would then decline by 2.5 percent each year from 2015 to 2020.
The Maryland Department of the Environment will now set out to revise regulations for power plant operators around the state, to reflect the new cap, said Kathy M. Kinsey, deputy secretary of the agency.
A spokesman for Exelon Corp., which owns Baltimore Gas and Electric Co. and a handful of power plants in the Baltimore area, said in a statement the company "supports market-based approaches to addressing climate change, as well as the effort to maintain and improve the RGGI program."
Other business groups, with members including companies like Timberland, Ben & Jerry's and eBay, welcomed the new cap.
Some criticized it, however. The New Jersey chapter of Americans for Prosperity called the new cap "a massive tax hike" on electricity bills. New Jersey was an original member of the regional initiative but left in 2011 as Republican Gov. Chris Christie called it a "failure" that would not reduce greenhouse gases.
Auction prices power plant operators pay could rise if demand for the allowances reverses course and increases, which could mean higher electricity prices. Models that initiative organizers used in reaching their agreement showed an average monthly bill effect below 1 percent, a figure that includes the benefit of investment of auction proceeds into energy-efficiency programs, according to state environmental officials.

Micah True, born to run
It was less than two years ago that I first met the near-mythical Micah True, also known as "Caballo Blanco," Spanish for White Horse, and the central character of the bestselling book, Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World has Never Seen.
He recently made headlines when he was found dead four days after disappearing during a routine solo trail run in the Gila Wilderness of New Mexico. Among the search party was Christopher McDougall, the author of "Born to Run." McDougall's original curiosity about the elusive Micah, who chose to live among a reclusive small tribe in Mexico, inspired his book and brought him literary acclaim.
I met Micah True in a roundabout way through pack-burro racing, Colorado's indigenous and unusual sport, in which human competitors run up and down mountain passes alongside burros. A mutual friend talked Micah into racing a burro in an upcoming event at Leadville, and I offered to provide the burro.
Micah was open to new adventures, and everyone he met quickly became his friend and potential running partner. We met at a friend's ranch and went for a run with a burro called Spike. I still remember the laughter as the black burro got away from the White Horse a couple of times on the downhill. We quickly became friends, and he ended up running in two burro races.
Little did I know that within two years, Micah would become the first person I've ever known — and considered a friend — whose death would be reported as major news. He would be eulogized in public memorial services across the country, and the world would learn perhaps more about this remarkable person after his death than had been reported during the 58 years of his life. What's unfortunate is that while many writers tended to dwell on the how and why of his death, they didn't tell more about the how and why of his life.
It was widely reported, for example, that Micah was the race director for the Copper Canyon Ultra Marathon in Mexico. True, but rarely has there been mention of the fact that he organized the race as a benefit for the tribal people who inhabit the area. The race brings in 100,000 pounds of staple corn for the Tarahumara, and $14,000 in prizes. Every runner who finishes the race is awarded 500 pounds of corn. Using his fame from "Born to Run," Caballo traveled the United States — and indeed the world — on his "Talking Horse Tour," raising awareness about the plight of the Tarahumara, one of the world's last indigenous running cultures.
The Raramuri, which roughly translates as "Running People," evolved as runners in order to travel quickly through their rugged homeland, get messages between villages, and hunt. They continue to celebrate this tradition through ceremony and competition.
Today, the Tarahumara are feeling the harsh encroachment of modern culture, with its violent drug wars and intensive mining and logging. The tribe's love of running, Micah believed, was the thin thread that still held the culture together. One writer characterized Micah as the only person who could possibly help the Tarahumara. "Born to Run," tells the story of Micah, beginning with his career as a champion prizefighter living in Boulder, Colo., to his virtual disappearance from society. He'd first become acquainted with Raramuri runners at the Leadville Trail 100 ultramarathon in the 1990s. Shortly thereafter, he more or less vanished into Copper Canyon, living in a mud-and-stone hut and spending his days running among the Tarahumara.
Though he took exception to some of the descriptions in Born to Run, the book's release in 2009 drew Micah out of his seclusion in the depths of the canyons. It gave him a sense of mission and the visibility that he needed to help him make a difference. His relative fame, however, never went to his head. "Just trying to keep it real," he told me. "Run free."
He stayed true to that credo, living practically out of the back of his truck, traveling to speaking engagements and running, always running, on behalf of the Tarahumara.
How many of us are willing to turn our passion and good fortune into a lifelong mission of helping others? How many of us will die doing what we love in a place that we love? It seems that Micah True found the perfect trail to the other side. Those of us who had the good fortune to know Micah True, either personally or through his legend as related in "Born to Run," can celebrate his life and honor his message.
Run free, Caballo Blanco!

I paid for a Wellness Plan for five years when we signed up for the plan we were told that in the case of an emergency we could bring Spike in and receive treatment. We were also told that in the case that it was something this clinic could not deal with we would be sent to the Bafield in North Denver which is a 24 hour full care hospital a place where we were sent for a prior emergency and treated because Spike need more extensive care. But when my beloved Spike was attacked by another dog and injured Banfield sent me away not to North Denver location as they said they would. To an outside hospital because they didn't want to perform a eye removal a surgery which they did regularly there. This wasn't a complex or complicated surgery beyond the scope of this clinic. Its routine and takes about ten minutes to complete. I called before we went in to the clinic explained what happened and was told to bring him into the 160 Wadsworth Blvd location in Lakewood Colorado. When we arrived they took him in the back for a minute brought him back to me bloody deflated eye still exposed. No one offered a towel to wipe his face. Nor one to keep myself or my 15 year old son who was crying from being covered in blood. No one even bandaged his eye so we didn't have to look at him with his deflated eye hanging out. We were told he could live with one eye but his doctor was not there. I asked if they would call her since she had been his personal vet for 4 years and was the doctor who could preform the surgery he need to remove his eye. The tech refused and told us to take Spike elsewhere. I was sent to ACCESS EMERGENCY HOSPITAL when we walked in we were put in a room and told someone would be right in. We waited and no one came my son walked to the back were he found the staff talking and having tea. He yelled can someone please help us my dog is bleeding and in pain. A tech came in with paperwork asking how we planned on paying for his treatment. We were told it would cost 1,200.00 to 1,500.00 for them to see him. I informed them I didn't have that and was told either apply for there credit card or find another vet. My boyfriend was upset and yelling asking why we weren't being helped or why banfield had sent us there if they weren't willing to work with us or give us the 50% dicount we should have recieved at Bandfield as plan holders. My boyfriend asked if they expected us to take Spike home to suffer. The tech said you aren't willing to pay for his care and are just going to let him suffer she then left the room. Upon her return she informed us that she had called the police and animal control. They arrived asked my boyfriend to leave. The animal control officer asked if I was going to take Spike home to died I said no. She said if I didn't find a vet they would take him from me because this hospital wasn't going to help us and we were told to wait outside the building for my older son who was half an hour away when I called him. When he arrived we then begin a search driving around Denver to find help. After 3 different vets I was sent to HERMOSA VET CLINIC where I was told treatment for Spike would cost 500.00 up front I only had$250.00 and they wouldn't make a payment arrangement till friday for the remainder. I was told he was in pain and that I couldn't leave him like that till friday. This was monday afternoon so I was forced to put him down. When I called Banfield to cancel our plans for Spike, Petey and Sophie after I put Spike down they told me even if he had been seen at Bandfield I would have only received a discount for services and they wanted to charge me to cancel our three wellness plans. I never missed a monthly payment for my plans or missed a payment on any payment arrangement I made for services I received at Banfield. I have discovered nation wide plan holders who encounter tragic endings because Banfield does not want to provide service. I never heard from anyone at anyone at the 130 Wadsworth location again until I posted a letter on the Banfield corporate Facebook page two weeks later. Dr. Ashley Bardo Spike's vet and Chief Of Staff called and said they should have done more to help us and that she should had been called as I asked. Our original vet at this location had died. He had seen our other dog Petey for parvo and always worked with us when it came to services and payments. Had I known that this location would treat us so badly after his death I would have left upon his death.This was not the first time Banfield neglected Spike. Two weeks before his death I had taken him in for a check up and blood draw which he needed because He suffered from seizures at that visit I informed the tech that he was low on medication and would need a three day script to get him through until his test came back and they could write his regular three month script. She told me she would tell the doctor and call in the three day script that afternoon. This request was something they had done for us many times before. They always chose the date of his blood work near the end of his current prescription because they said that if his medication levels had to be changed it would be easier to just write a new script then. After his visit that afternoon I called to see if his meds were ready and learned they never called in the script. I then called Banfield and was told they were sorry and would inform the doctor asap. The next moring called to see if his meds were ready once again no. I again called Banfield told them he was on his last day of meds could they make sure to call in his three day script and was told ok. Later that day checked on the prescription and once again nothing. When I called Banfield was told there was no record of my request and they would get a hold of his vet as she had left for the day. That night he had two seizures. I called Bandfield first thing in the morning and was told his blood work would be back that day and his three month script would be called in. They knew he needed meds and just didnt care. I hold Banfield responsible because they refused to call the vet who was in charge of his care as I asked, and did not even try to help us they could have offered the option to keep him at the 24 hour north location they had sent us to on a prior emergency until Dr. Bardo came in the next day. Instead they sent was away to strangers whose only concern was payment they were callous and did nothing for us. Bandfields staff need to be better trained and there policies need to be change because pets are not expendable. Bandfield has had an open file with the BBB since 2000 with complaints surrounding contracts and customer service. Bandfield has a history of misdiagnosing pets, subjecting pet to unneeded treatments for profit all thing I discovered after Spike's death so something must be wrong. SPIKE WAS MY BABY THE LAST THING ON THIS EARTH I WANTED TO DO WAS PUT HIM DOWN. IF BANFIELD HAD PROVIDED TREATMENT INSTEAD OF SENDING US AWAY SPIKE WOULD STILL BE WITH US. Spike's story is only one of thousands across the internet there are pages like pissedoffconsumer.com and Banfield is the wrong place to take your pets on Facebook. Where owners share their stories about abuse neglect and fraud. Banfield history of these acts go back to the 80's when they were called Companion. For Spike, Sprinkles, Pepper, Money and all the other pets Bandfield has hurt or cause to be taken away too soon It is time someone looks into what is taking place.

I want to ensure no pet owner ever has to put down their pet when they could have recieved the care their owners are told they can receive when they sign up . Banfield needs to better train there...
I want to ensure no pet owner ever has to put down their pet when they could have recieved the care their owners are told they can receive when they sign up . Banfield needs to better train there staff on how to handel emergencies and have experienced compassionate doctors and techs in every clinic all the time. The first priority should be helping the injured pet and there family. There policies need to be changed so that people aren't lead to believe that they can bring there pets there for more then shots. And are not lead to believe that you will be sent to another Banfield if it something your clinic doesn't what to deal with as we were when we bought our plan. My fight is not only for Spike but for all the other babies and families who were mislead and lost. And to avoid any more of these tragic stories

February 23, 2012
University of Chicago Institute for Law & Economics Olin Research Paper No. 589
The financial crisis of 2008 was caused in part by speculative investment in complex derivatives. In enacting the Dodd-Frank Act, Congress sought to address the problem of speculative investment, but merely transferred that authority to various agencies, which have not yet found a solution. We propose that when firms invent new financial products, they be forbidden to sell them until they receive approval from a government agency designed along the lines of the FDA, which screens pharmaceutical innovations. The agency would approve financial products if they satisfy a test for social utility that focuses on whether the product will likely be used more often for hedging than for speculation. Other factors may be addressed if the answer is ambiguous. This approach would revive and make quantitatively precise the common-law insurable interest doctrine, which helped control financial speculation before deregulation in the 1990s.

5(6)-CR6G, SE is the amine-reactive form of 5(6)-CR6G. In general, rhodamine 6G conjugates have higher fluorescence quantum yields than tetramethylrhodamine conjugates, as well as good photostability. The excitation and emission peaks of rhodamine 6G conjugates falling between those of fluorescein and tetramethylrhodamine provide another color choice for the multicolor imaging applications. Additionally the absorption maxima of CR6G conjugates match well with the 514 nm spectral line of the argon-ion laser.

HIV/AIDS News
FDA Approves First Nucleic Acid Test (NAT) System To Screen Whole Blood Donors For Infections With Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) And Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)
The Food and Drug Administration has licensed the first nucleic acid test (NAT) system intended for screening donors of whole blood and blood components intended for use in transfusion. This test system can simultaneously detect the presence of HIV and HCV in blood using a semi-autoomated system and is expected to further ensure the safety of whole blood and blood components, including fresh plasma, red cells and platelets, by permitting earlier detection of HIV and HCV infections in donors.
FDA also recently licensed the first NAT system for screening donors of plasma for the specific use in products that will be further manufactured, such as clotting factors and immune globulins.
The approved test system was developed by Gen-Probe Inc., San Diego, Calif. and will be distributed by Chiron Corporation, Emeryville, Calif.
Blood donors have been tested for evidence of HIV infection since 1985 and for evidence of HCV infection since 1990. Although increasingly sensitive tests for detection of HIV and HCV antibodies and HIV antigen were implemented during the past decade, in rare instances infections in donors have been missed.
The NAT system is capable of detecting more infectious donations than current tests because it detects viral genes rather than antibodies or antigens (proteins from the virus). Detection of viral genes permits detection earlier in the infection since the appearance of antibodies requires time for the donor to develop an immune response, and since detection of antigens requires time for a higher level of virus to appear in the bloodstream.
This new technology detects very small amounts of genetic material by copying the genes numerous times, resulting in a billion-fold amplification of the target gene. The approved test system can detect ribonucleic acid (RNA) from HIV-1 and HCV when tested in pools of 16 samples obtained from multiple donors. In a less automated format, it can also be used to test individual samples from whole blood collections. If a test pool is positive for either virus, the individual donation suspected of containing a virus can be identified and not transfused. The donor can be deferred from donating blood and notified.
Currently, donors of blood and plasma are tested for antibodies to HCV, antibodies to HIV and HIV-1 antigens, which are the virus's own proteins. However, there is still a "window period" during which a donor can be infected, but have negative screening tests. With the use of NAT for HCV, the window period is reduced by approximately 57 days (from an average of 82 days to 25 days). For HIV-1, the average window period with antibody is 22 days. This window period is reduced approximately to 16 days with antigen testing and to 12 days with NAT.
In nation-wide clinical trials performed to support the approval of the test on pools, a total of 7 HIV-1 positive and 88 HCV positive donations were detected in more than 20 million donations tested confirming the effectiveness of the test. The NAT system using pools was evaluated at eight volunteer blood donor sites while NAT for use with individual donations used data from U.S. military blood donor sites.
The use of the licensed test will allow blood banks that implement it to discontinue antigen testing, although blood donations will continue to be tested by antibody tests. FDA plans to issue guidance on the use of NAT in the near future.
Since 1997, FDA has encouraged the large-scale study of NAT through the use of experimental protocols. More than one test system is under development. Most of the nation's blood establishments now participate in these experimental protocols. The Gen-Probe NAT system is the first to be approved to screen donors of whole blood and blood components intended for use in transfusion.

Arguably one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Jerusalem is a must for any world traveler. From world-renowned archaeological sites to solemn religious temples, the city is a treasure trove of culture and history. This holy city reflects three religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Today, historic neighborhoods rub shoulders with glistening high-rise apartment buildings and office towers. The main districts of the city include the Old City, a UNESCO World Heritage Site; West Jerusalem, the commercial heart of the city; East Jerusalem; Me'a Shearim; and the village-like Ein Kerem.
Scenic views, architectural masterpieces and religious sites intermingle to make Jerusalem a fascinating destination. Visit music venues, theaters and fantastic museums. Get to know the locals, including religious and nonreligious, rabbis and priests, diplomats and art students.
If you've chosen a holiday rental with a fully equipped kitchen, you'll likely be doing most of your cooking at "home." However, take time to taste the multitudes of flavors that Jerusalem has to offer – from falafel stands to Ethiopian, Mediterranean to Middle Eastern.
Consider partaking in the Temple Mount Sifting Project in Tzurim Valley National Park, where tourists can help salvage antiques in the debris that was taken from the Temple Mount. Or, make a reservation to see the Western Wailing Wall and its underground tour. Take a midnight biking tour through the streets and alleyways of old and new Jerusalem, a unique and memorable way to see the holy city.
Several types of holiday rental are available in Jerusalem. Whether you are a group of friends traveling together or an extended family, you'll find a rental home that suits your needs and interests. There are traditional homes that date back to the 19th century, furnished with antiques and boasting gorgeous gardens. Serene studio apartments are available just a few minutes' walk from the Old City and the center of downtown Jerusalem. Choose a 160-year-old residence with original stone walls and domed ceilings – complete with modern amenities such as television, DVD player, washer, dryer, etc. And be sure to ask about the views – in some homes, the vista from your window might include stunning Mount Zion or the Judean hills.
For privacy and flexibility, holiday rentals are the way to go and will save you money compared to a traditional hotel. Plus, you'll feel more intimately connected with your neighborhoods, community and travel destination.

I was walking through Target and happened upon a box of bubbles. I just knew they would make a great Valentine!
It was a box of 24 bubbles for just over $3.00 at Target, but here are some on Amazon as well if you wanted a larger quantity. Go look in the party supplies and you can throw this together in no time. All you need is this printable, the bubbles, and some twine (or glue). I love how cute they are and every kid loves bubbles.

To realise great success in our prayer life we must develop the discipline of orienting our minds towards God's thoughts. We must develop a God consciousness. In other words, we must learn to think like God. And then practice thinking like Him every day and in every situation until it becomes a daily discipline. How do we do this? It's easier than we realise, God's thoughts are in His Word and as we read and study the Word, we will learn to think like God. The Apostle Paul discovered the power of this discipline and encourages us in Roman's to "renew" our minds. Paul experienced transformation as a result of practicing this discipline daily.
So how does this affect our prayer life? Well, if we have a mind that is thinking God's thoughts, then our prayers will be prayers that pray His thoughts. Is their a higher prayer than praying God's very thoughts? Certainly not. Can powerful prayer be that simple? Yes! Let's think about it, where does the enemy attack our faith? He does it in our mind. He feeds thoughts of doubt and unbelief to our mind and this is where the battle begins. If left unchecked, these thoughts will increase and multiply in our thinking leaving our faith sorely eroded which in effect paralyses our prayers. Can we pray doubting? Here's what the Word says about that:
James 1: 6-9 But let him ask in faith , with no doubting , for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord ; he is a double- minded man , unstable in all his ways.
Can you see the powerful effect our thoughts have on our prayers? However, if we learn to think like God, if we orient our mind towards His thoughts and develop this as a discipline in our daily living, when the enemy feeds us such doubting and unbelieving thoughts we will instantly recognise them and be immediately unwilling to receive them into our mind. If the enemy has no place in our thinking then we are able to pray unhindered with powerful direction from the very mind of God!
Start today! Take careful instruction from the Apostle Paul and develop a God consciousness, oreint your mind towards His thoughts and start to think like Him - it will transform your prayer life for sure!

Tuacahn presents Thoroughly Modern Millie
Tuacahn presents Thoroughly Modern Millie a high-spirited musical romp that has everyone dancing the Charleston. It's the zany new 1920's musical that has taken Broadway by storm, winning the TONY Award for BEST MUSICAL!
Taking place in New York City in 1922, Thoroughly Modern Millie tells the story of young Millie Dillmount, who has just moved to the city in search of a new life for herself. It's a New York full of intrigue and jazz – a time when women were entering the workforce and the rules of love and social behavior were changing forever. Based on the popular movie, the stage version of THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE includes a full score of new songs and bright dance numbers.
Filled with funloving flappers, dashing leading men and a dragon-lady of a villainess that audiences will love to hate, Thoroughly Modern Millie is a perfectly constructed evening of madcap merriment.
