...Wedding Singer This musical version of the Adam Sandler movie looks like nothing so much as one of Broadway's ubiquitous jukebox musicals ? in which a cheesy, tongue-in-cheek story is draped with old pop hits from Elvis or the Beach Boys. Except that this time someone has written new songs, which kind of defeats the purpose. The show winks at the audience so relentlessly, with references to ?80s icons from Flashdance to Mr. T, that eventually you just tune out. Some good tunes would have helped, but the score (by Matthew Sklar and Chad Beguelin) is forgettable, like...
...Winners. The Baltic state came in dead last in the 2005 semifinals. Could LT United's entry, which repeats the line, "We are the winners of Eurovision" over and over, be a not-so-subtle attempt at swaying the voting public?

...your spring break tan?” the event invitation queried. “All of this sacrilege can be had at the Owl Catholic Schoolgirl Party.”Despite the offensive nature of such an event, most of Harvard’s Christians turned the other cheek. But had another of Harvard’s final clubs hosted a “Burqas Off!” party during Ramadan, the entire community would have been up in arms. The Harvard Foundation would have nervously proclaimed a town hall meeting, and the national media would have surely picked...
