    Marni Nixon, the American cinema’s most unsung singer, died on Sunday in New York. She was 86. The cause was breast cancer, said Randy Banner, a student and friend. Classically trained, Ms. Nixon was throughout the 1950s and ’60s the unseen — and usually uncredited — singing voice of the stars in a spate of celebrated Hollywood films. She dubbed Deborah Kerr in “The King and I,” Natalie Wood in “West Side Story” and Audrey Hepburn in “My Fair Lady,” among many others. Starting as a teenager in the late 1940s and continuing for the next two decades, Ms. Nixon...

    Progressives are on the move once more. Wisconsin lit the spark, as workers, students, teachers and farmers occupied the state’s capitol in February and launched recall elections that sobered conservative Republican Gov. Scott Walker and his legislative allies. Occupy Wall Street turned that spark into a conflagration that swept the nation. Last week, in Ohio and Maine and even Mississippi, voters overwhelmingly rejected efforts to trample worker rights, constrict the right to vote and roll back women’s rights. These electoral victories have led pundits to wonder whether Occupy Wall Street will imitate the Tea Party and stand candidates for office....

    my daughter heard it on Seattle radio | 3-14-03 | dfu
    While driving to school today, my daughter called from Whidbey Island with a great incident that happened last night in Seattle. As a military wife (Josh is on the USS THEODORE ROOSEVELT), she is very pro-American and anti-protestors. The protestors really make her angry. At the 5th Avenue Theatre in Seattle, during a performance of MY FAIR LADY, the lead actor, Prof. Henry Higgins, dissed the French on stage. There is a part in which Eliza gets a French dress. The actor actually said it should have been an English dress. The crowd was stunned. Actors apparently get fined if...
