...canvas—into a workout for your retinas. One can’t help but struggle to shift the focus from the painting’s surface to what is below, over and over again. At over two-and-a-half meters high each, both paintings are bold, bursting with color and texture. The physical material of the paint seems to extend off of the canvas towards the viewer, while the colors seep into the depths under the surface...
...management switch at Magellan is yet another attempt to re-instill the kind of bold stock-picking of Lynch's heyday. "We have a very different business model than Vanguard or American," says Fidelity spokeswoman Anne Crowley.

...story of unfulfilled expectations—a dark and nervous piece of music haunted by lyrical dreams of tenderness. Like Beethoven’s third symphony, the “Tragic Overture” opens with two solitary chords. Unlike Beethoven, however, whose opening to his third symphony is bold and heroic, Brahms’ second chord is built unsteadily on a note one step above the tonic and is missing the third entirely. This foreshadows the unmistakable loneliness and emotional dissonance that runs through the entire piece...
