Every Tuesday, Critical Mass sifts through the art blog world so you don't have to.

' Uwishunu reports that Frank Lloyd Wright's final work during his lifetime ' Beth Sholom Synagogue in Elkins Park ' has got it together enough to institute regular visiting hours, as well as a visitor's center and tour guides. L'chaim, architectural enthusiasts!

' Former Philadelphia Orchestra conductor Riccardo Muti brought the NY Philharmonic to the Kimmel on Friday. Seems like he's the one that Philly let get away, considering the amount of glowing nostalgia over him that's emitting from the Inquirer's Arts Watch.

' City Paper's living room/favorite Old City dive was called the Khyber Pass (as opposed to the Khyber) in the '80s. And back then, according to The New York Times, suspect terrorist David Coleman Headley owned it. Woa. Heavy shit. We don't remember him ' do you?

' Stylish Thought offers fashion holiday help in the form of a flow chart. This only works if you're going to an office party, friend's mixer or family gathering ' and like to dress in women's clothes.

' And as if the Snuggie Crawl wasn't enough, Phawker tells us that food blogger Lee Frank is hosting a Nacho Crawl Philadelphia this weekend. I wish it were a Poutine Crawl.
