...second thing that transports this musical is Stroman's lyrical and sensuous choreography, wonderfully danced by Levering, the former co-star of "42nd Street." In the climactic seduction scene in Therese's bedroom, Levering slithers and writhes and wraps her legs around Bierko as seductively as Cyd Charisse used to envelop Gene Kelly. Not only is this a rare Broadway musical where the dance numbers actually illuminate character and enhance the story; it's also one of the few that manages to portray sexual passion convincingly. Seldom do I believe that a couple onstage are really attracted to each other...
...Wall to Wall Coverage TREND. We laid down bear skin rugs in our residences, offices and customized vans for two reasons: one, the rugs look hot, and two, we know prospective partners can't resist the erotic pull and sensuous feel of genuine bear. Alas, the rugs may have worked a little too well, leaving our premises too funky after bacchanalian nights spent on the skin. Now LINOLEUM RUGS offer a wipeable alternative that is as aesthetically pleasing and frankly sexual as its endangered counterpart. Created by L.A. painter Christopher Stearns, the linoleum rugs come in a variety of grid...
...Billie Holiday during the decades before the end of the Second World War. In the 1960s, when Clinton walked 125th Street, things got worse. But from the teens to the mid-1940s, the joint jumped.

Du Bois and Marcus Garvey delivered their polemics; and Lena Horne sang in the chorus at Ed Small's Sugar Cane Club...
...tried to destroy the whole legacy of English medieval art, exalted the Word and the Idea and distrusted the visual icon. It was blasphemy to represent the face of God, idolatry to gaze on any likeness of his saints and angels, loathsome vanity to employ the arts for sensuous gratification. Hence the legendary discomfort of early Massachusetts furniture--and the almost total absence of any kind of figurative painting, other than the "shades," or family likenesses, that were needed for dynastic memory...
...fuses sterling silver into intricate, elegant and seemingly impossible designs. In her words, she is "open to enchantment" and takes inspiration from the grandeur of nature and the traditional crafts of Borneo. Her playful, bold, futuristic design sense produces pieces that are edgy and abstract, yet lyrical and sensuous. Showcases lined with desert litter, sand and slate display jewelry with names like Sea King, Pillow or Little Devil. Morris's newest Organic limited edition of wearable art pieces includes rings representing fire and water, massive bands set with cabochon stones or carved with geometric symbols, open-work sculpted cuffs...
