...forgive the sins of her past. The abuse. The violent household. The instability. The codependence. Through therapy, through semi-autobiographical novels (Gray Sexton has authored four) and through dealing with her mother's work as her executor, she has been able to move forward.

They somnambulate while the acrobats somersault on a trampoline bent up at the ends, as others jump from one vertical pole to another using only leg power -- and that gorgeous bungee ballet of angels unfolds to Rene Dupere's ethereal music.

...band has performed a number of now-leg-endary routines, including showing Sputnik in orbit (on the very same day the real satellite was launched), champagne pouring into a glass (complete with bubbles and a "hic") and a pen writing the word "Crimson" across the field. In 1953, for one performance only, the band did a drill on ice skates at Boston Garden...
