...there are distinguishable songs on the album. Most tracks on “Soldier of Love” hit the same low-tempo, somniferous groove that repeats until it stops, briefly, as if for convention’s sake, and then resumes in another key. The rhythm section, the core of any decent R&B group, sounds too often like the drum and bass GarageBand loops characterized by seamless, emotionally-bereft rhythmic accuracy and a robotic inability to feel—it’s hard to imagine human beings creating this record. This is particularly problematic seeing...
...basics: strong leadership, better customer service and refocusing on what the $95.9 billion company has always done best--supply-chain management. "This is an entirely different company," says Mike Lynch, who heads Cardinal's medical-supply unit. "We've seen a much needed reinfusion of capital into our core businesses, a clarity of vision, a renewed sense of purpose. The optimism is palpable...

The results, as on "Lover of Mine," are vocals that soar with joy while...
...given right to build their homes in the occupied territories are now part of the mainstream, disproportionately represented in the army's mid-level officer corps, and an important support base of the Netanyahu government. Israel's Foreign Minister, Avigdor Lieberman, is himself a settler. The religious-nationalist ideological core of the settler movement has threatened to violently resist any attempt to move them, and for many Israelis, the cost-benefit analysis weighs against uprooting them: Why risk a domestic civil war in order to return land to the Palestinians, who might later turn it into a base to fire...
