Allow me to second what Wendy says about Shira.  She is truly an amazing
music/dance/drama teacher.  I think that she should really go to Hava Nashira
based on all the great things I've heard about it and know about her, and I
told her so.  So, Wendy - it's now up to you to nag Shira into going to HN,
okay?  :o)
