Ageless Nativity Drama and the Magi’s Gifts
The article argues the Nativity remains a central December drama with the Magi shaping its universal appeal. It notes the Magi's fame by the 4th century, their journey likely lasting over two years, and their diplomacy with Herod. Gold, frankincense, and myrrh are explored as symbolic gifts underscoring Mary and Joseph's exile, danger from Herod, and the foretold fate of Jesus.

Potters Field Burials Highlight City’s Forgotten Strangers
Claude Solomon and eight others were buried in New York's potters field, a 45 acre section by Hart Island. Convicts from Rikers Island conducted the burials with minimal ceremony and low pay as coffins, gaps in embalming, and trench graves mark the grim efficiency of the city’s pauper interments.
