If there was any question about the incestuous nepotism of the machine in New York City politics, this story in The Daily News should put all of that to rest. To make a long story short, David Weprin, the former City Councilman turned failed-Comptroller candidate, will run for the Assembly seat of his brother Mark Weprin, the former Assemblyman turned City Councilman. And what seat did Mark Weprin...

DOWNLOADS: (141) PLAYS: (261) Glenn Beck, yesterday on his Fox News show: Beck: I'm sure that's fine. Teaching Saul Alinsky, that's fine. It's all academia -- you know, he doesn't agree with that. Good! Then all the things I talked about are nonsense and I'll go down in the history books as a complete nutjob that was totally wrong. And I'm perfectly fine -- perfectly fine being remembered by that...

It is easy to see why Handel’s Semele was such a flop when it premiered in 1744. When audiences were expecting another Samson or Saul, a steamy tale of sex, seduction, betrayal and revenge was never likely to go down well during the Lenten seas...

Okay, a little while ago I finished The Departure , wrote a couple of synopses and some blurbs for it, then sent it off to Macmillan. Good response from the commissioning editor (bloody marvelous). Here’s one of the blurbs for you: Like Wellsian war machines the shepherds stride into riots to grab up the ringleaders and drag them off to Inspectorate HQ for adjustment, unless they are in shredding...

In a just and rational world, the stunning and eminently quotable work of Saul Williams would have seen him hailed as the Messiah by now. Black Stacey is part confessional memoir, part consciousness-raising rallying-cry, all righteous, fluid articulacy over flowing, portentous beats. Willliams' cool, composed and self-possessed narration, refreshing as a slug of cold water, argues down braggadocio...

There's an interesting paper called Saul Ascher’s Leviathan, or The Invention of Jewish Orthodoxy in 1792 by Christoph Schulte in LBIY 2000 45 (1):25-34. The premise is that the aforementioned book more or less is the first time the concept of Jewish Orthodoxy is really nailed down. I will not take issue with that claim, but in the course of discussing the book Schulte gives what he thinks is...
