The powerful and rich women of Newport, Rhode Island, are not only some of the most involved suffragettes, their wealth - especially that of the indomitable Alva Vanderbilt Belmont - nearly singly-handedly funded the major suffrage parties.

The movie “Little Big Man,” impressed me a lot. I love it. But it got me to thinking of all the wonderful roles Dustin Hoffman brought to life on the big screen, and as I was going through all of those roles, from Ben Braddock in “The Graduate,” to Ratso Rizzo in “Midnight Cowboy” and Louis Dega in “Papillon,” and Michael Dorsey in “Tootsie,” that I could combine all of those roles into one film. So an already silly story became even sillier. I even worked in a portion of “Rain Man.” I hope you will get as much pleasure reading it as I had in writing it.

A tale of obsession, with an incredibly low budget. If Peter Benchley were to translate the works of Melville and Hemingway, this is how it might turn out. If he couldn’t afford a white whale. Or a marlin. Or a great white shark. If the only fish he could obsess about were, perhaps, a carp.

Too often we mistake religion for an insurance policy by which we are somehow guaranteed success, health and a productive life. Three parables in particular reveal that a healthy and holy spirituality is founded on the compassionate mercy of God: The accounts of the (1) Prodigal Son, (2) the Samaritan Woman, and the (3) Good Samaritan serve to remind us that God comes to those who are worn out, broken and who feel inadequate to the tasks of life. These three parables remind us that God loves us completely, even in our deepest need.

What does it mean to be close to God? In this course, Fr. Jeffrey Kirby will guide you through the most basic principles of the Spiritual Life, defining key terms and analyzing specific biblical verses that will greatly aid both newcomers to Christianity and those who have been Christian for years.

In this course, Father Kirby takes a look at the history and artwork of St. Peter's Square and Basilica through the light of faith. This comprehensive tour explains why St. Peter's Basilica was significant to the early Christians, and why it is still significant today. Just as the ancient pilgrims exclaimed, “Ecco Roma” (Latin for “Behold Rome”), so too does this course begin with wonder at beholding the Eternal City. Aside from visiting Italy in person, this tour will take you as close as possible to experiencing the splendor of Rome, Vatican City, and St. Peter’s Square.

This new version of the tragedy of Electra combines the plot lines of the three great tragedians Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides with a sprinkle of Eliot, a dab of Keats, a hint of Shakespeare, an essence of the Eurythmics, Walt Whitman, Nietzsche and others.

Tim Dalgleish and Sally Luff with Carabosse Theatre Company have created a modern take on one of the most profound myths of Ancient Greece.

We live in a world of radical individualism, where people care more about satisfying their own needs than they do about the needs of others.

The principles in this book will help you along this journey toward oneness.
