If you want to warm up before protesting the actual Olympic Torch Relay on April 9, there will be a candle light vigil tomorrow at United Nations Plaza. Speeches will begin at 6 pm and orators will include both Richard Gere and Desmond Tutu. Candles may be optional, as the combined power of Gere and Tutu appears to emanate it's own ethereal light. The torch was in Paris earlier today, where protestors put an early end to its journey. --Andy Wright
