Photo by Dave Sanders for The New York Times.
On the eve of Hurricane Sandy, I'm admiring this slideshow in today's New York Times which gives a favorable view of a lively night of debke and dancing in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. The pictured dancer in the slideshow is the fabulous LaUra,!. Read: "Smoke, Dance, and a Sliver of Lebanon." The dance in the title refers to dabke dance. Some will dislike the overall portrayal, too stereotypical. Still.....looks fun to me.
