Many may recall that Tommy Lindsey of Castleton Corners, who turns 11 years old this year, has the disorder.

Tommy first met Ms. Moore when he and his dad, also Tommy, were attending a TSC conference at New York University Medical Center, Manhattan. Ms. Moore happened to be passing by after dropping off her daughter across the street, and Tommy’s dad invited her to become the spokeswoman for the disease. She agreed. Since then, she has hosted several fund-raisers on Staten Island to raise awareness about TSC.

The possibility of a cure is closer than ever, and because TSC is the leading genetic cause of epilepsy and autism, every dollar raised to find a cure and better treatments for TSC can also mean a better understanding of epilepsy and autism, even cancer – diseases that touch most everyone all of us know.

Organizers ask that participants donate an item for their auction valued at $50 or more.

The festivities will begin at 6:30 p.m. with a VIP reception and silent auction, followed by a short program on TSC and a live auction, then ending on high note with a fabulous cabaret of comedians.

Those interested in learning more about the fund-raiser should consult www.tsalliance.org. For additional information, telephone 240-638-4644 or e-mail tim@capallies.com.

“It’s about a hypothetical family put there to inspire conspicuous consumption,” he said. “They’re planted in the community to sell their lifestyle. They’re not really a family. Their bodies and homes are full of product placement — sneakers, jewelry, electronics, clothing, cosmetics.

“It’s basically an idea that I had,” he said. “These are like moles. Stealth moles. Like a cell. It’s a satire. We’re not talking science-fiction here. It’s a comedy.”
And at the end? It falls apart?

“Well, by then it satisfies a few different experiences.”

A disembodied voice came on saying David only had a minute more to chat with me.

He talked about his wife, Tea Leoni. “We had a tough year and a half. We split up for a bit. We’ve been together 13 years. But we’re back. And living in New York. In New York, you don’t exist in a car. Your whole life isn’t planned. You can walk the streets. People smile or nod. You can see life. People don’t bother you.

“My mother lives here. It’s funny. Twenty years I’ve been in the business and, as I’m walking along, someone will say ‘Hi,’ and I’m polite so I give him a ‘Hi’ back, and my mother will say, ‘Where do you know him from?’

“Right now I’m in LA because I’m taping my show. But I love New York. My kids go to an Episcopal private school.”

The disembodied voice came on again with a crisp: “You have to go now, David.”

To which he then said to me: “Y’know, I always wanted to be a Knick. And I don’t think it’s too late.”

After doing a bit of research, it looks as though Téa is between projects at the moment so I don’t have anything new to report. (Seems production of Miss Captivity has stalled.) Please enjoy the site as an archive until Téa comes back into the public eye. We don’t do the paparazzi thing around here, but I will keep you all posted on any news! Please feel free to contact me if you hear anything.

I hope you like the new design! All of the old content (from when the site started in 1999) is now on the main site, so have fun!

David Duchovny and Tea Leoni are reportedly planning to renew their wedding vows.

The pair announced the end of their 11-year marriage back in October, after Duchovny underwent a spell in rehab to treat sex addiction.

But the actors worked through their problems and subsequently reunited, and they now plan on sealing their love with a second marriage ceremony, according to Britain’s Daily Express newspaper.

A source tells the publication, “They’ve been married for 12 years and, like most of us, have had their ups and downs. But they really want to put the past behind them and renew their vows. They want to draw a line under things and make a fresh start.

“They went through a tough time but have reignited that spark. David realizes how close he came to losing it all so he especially wants to have their family and closest friends on hand to witness his second chance at happiness.”

The couple has two children; Madelaine, 10, and six-year-old Kyd.
