Tohru Honda is 16 year old orphaned girl who gets invited to live in the house of her classmate, the handsome boy Sohma Yuki, and his cousins, 16 year old Kyo and 27 year old Shigure. However, these young men and parts of the rest of their family (both close and distant) hold a curse; if they are hugged by the opposite gender, they transform into animals of the Chinese Zodiac. Everyday is an adventure for sweet Tohru, as she gets to know everyone in the large family better (especially Yuki and Kyo), in both common and bizarre situations. But, the Sohma Family curse is certainly no laughing matter... it also holds horrible cruelty and heartbreak.
Live From Midtown is an American variety cable TV show that features actors, models, dancers and news reporters. The show was started by inner-city high school students from the Bronx, New York. After giving a platform to talented youth from across New York City and broadcasting on a weekly basis in New York for two years, the show was produced in five major cities. Live From Midtown was broadcast on the now defunct Colours TV. Segments included news reports, music and theatrical performances and fashion shows. The show was hosted by Hashim "Trends" Smith, who is best known for appearing on VH1's TV series I Love New York.
