The article written by Mark M. Herszenhorn talks about the many "celebrations" that took place because it was President's Putin 60th birthday. The author's tone is informative but also satirical and humorous. He first explains why the fact that Putin's birthday is such an important occurrence by explaining the tradition that has been established since Stalin. The author's use of subtle irony in such sentences as "Mr. Putin, of course, does not seem remotely ready to stop working..." show that he is against Putin.
The purpose of the author was to inform about the occurrence as well as voice his opinion of president Putin.
