- Support the Parental Bereavement Act
Not usually what i’d use this space for but the intersection of cause+industry+person makes this a no-brainer…
An old friend & industry colleague, Barry Kluger, needs our support on a bill that should have been law a long time ago.
In 2001, Barry lost his only child in a car accident. In 2011, he began the Farley-Kluger Initiative to Amend the Family Medical Leave Act to include loss of a child. Currently, you get 12 weeks unpaid to have a child..2-3 days to bury that child. The week of February 4, Barry and co-author of the bill, Kelly Farley will be meeting in DC with over 35 members of Congress on this effort. The buzz is, a bill WILL be introduced in the Senate AND House for The Parental Bereavement Act aka The Farley-Kluger Initiative.
I ask all of you who either know Barry or have families of your own to go to www.farleykluger.com and support this effort.
new additions to @chappfarmmarket include the awesome @ruby_reilly cd blaring!! (at Chappaqua Farmers Market)
Al Pacino as Phil Spector for the David Mamet biopic ..can’t wait.
pacino is way too cool and square-jaw-handsome for spector. not that he cant make it work, but to me spector was not merely flamboyant-weird, but self-loathing about his small chin / not a cool kid weird. sean penn is the zen master of this (falcon & snowman).
