...logical turn of the wheel. In Broadway's golden era, the songs Cole Porter, Richard Rodgers and others wrote for the stage were the same ones that sat atop the nation's hit parade. But with the advent of rock 'n' roll, pop and show music diverged. Though a stray Broadway hit might get radio airplay (Don't Cry for Me, Argentina), and a whiff of something like rock occasionally stirs the Great White Way (Rent), Broadway became a separate and self-contained musical domain, irrelevant to the most creative musicians of the rock generation...

Alternative medicine for pets may not be as widespread or well publicized as the human variety, but it's growing faster than a sprig of St. John's wort. The options for pet owners range from the surprising to the sublime, depending on how far you're willing to stretch your faith--which is, after...
