...antalkinaboutim antalkinaboutim, I can't stop talkinabout the man that I adore" - as Astaire stands by in understated disbelief. The singer and the songwriter never worked together again, which is a shame, since Hutton might have inspired a snazzy Broadway score from Loesser and kept her own career in flourish. In a way they did duet once more, once removed. Hutton's last hit record was a cover of "A Bushel and a Peck" from Guys and Dolls. It went...
...witnessed a very human miracle. The people of Europe found that their capacity for destruction was mirrored by an equally immense capacity for forgiveness, grace and hope. Looking to the U.S., Europeans could see how cherry-picked European ideas from minds like Locke, Rousseau and Tom Paine could flourish in a society not polluted by blood and aristocracy.

As they prepared to leave, the little girl proudly pulled out a cherry-red veil from her purse and tied it on with an innocent flourish. Only the most religiously extreme families force girls that young to wear hejab (as the veil is known in Iran), and I looked at my friend inquiringly. The little girl insists on wearing it, my friend told me; she thinks it makes her look like her mommy. The girl beamed beneath...
