Follow the vengeful barber as he seeks justice, aided by the cunning Mrs. Lovett and her rather… unique meat-pie business. Stephen Sondheim’s masterpiece weaves a twisted tale of love, revenge, and morality, brought to life by hauntingly beautiful music. Equal parts chilling and captivating, Sweeney Todd will leave you spellbound—and maybe a bit wary of your next shave…

Notably: Here are the people for whom the Florida governor ordered public flags at half mast this year: Saint Charlie Kirk of course, Geraldine Thompson (the Democrat who served in the legislature until this year; she died in February), Lincoln Diaz-Balart (the Republican legislator who also served in Congres until 2011), for the one-day remembrance of the Parkland school massacre. On Jan. 20, the governor ordered flags raised back to full staff, even though it was the mourning period for Jimmy Carter. He did so “for the inauguration of the 47th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.” The flags were also lowered in early January for former Gov. Buddy McKay. Flags were not ordered lowered for the murder of Minnesota Speaker of the House Melissa Hortman, a Democrat, or Bill Moyers, a liberal who was about a billion times the free speech icon Kirk could possibly be, a humanist (that Kirk never was) and a thinker who made us all think (ditto), or for any of the 47 school shootings so far this year, or for the 312 mass shootings so far this year.

The flag, as it happens, was designed by a native. It is lyrically simple, the most beautiful of all American flags. On its dark-blue field, gold stars form the constellation of the Great Bear. Above that is the North Star. Nothing else, as the designer explained, is needed to represent Alaska. It was the flag of the Territory for more than thirty years. Alaskans requested that it become the flag of the ne state. The designer was a thirteen-year-old Aleut boy.
–From John McPhee’s Coming Into the Country (1977).
