...subjects to “DEATH!” for courting mortals and shamelessly swooning over the mortal Private Willis (Marcus L. Wang ’04), who was passably but inexplicably portrayed as an American. Spitzer, as the Lord Chancellor, wears a constantly pained look at his moral dilemma and is also one of the more convincingly old men I have seen portrayed by college students. The selfless Iolanthe, played sweetly by Maccoby, displays completely genuine goodwill toward the world. Moss and Lareau, playing the two young lovers, are cheerfully blithe and unconcerned at everything, including their own love...
...Unlike their patron, a number of IGC members appear to recognize the Sunni insurgents and the Sadr supporters as an intractable reality - they're rooted in sections of Iraqi society, and won't be eliminated simply through military action. The dilemma facing U.S. officials on the ground is likely to become even more acute in the coming days given the efforts of IGC members to mediate solutions both in Fallujah and in the south. If the U.S. declines to accept those outcomes - which are not exactly palatable to the U.S. given its stated objectives in each case - the result will...

Compare that with the average of $216.86 requested of the council by 79 percent of our applicants, and suddenly the dilemma becomes clear...
...dilemma becomes even more acute as U.S. commanders ponder a response to Friday's Shiite festival of Araba'in, which is expected to draw hundreds of thousands of Shiites to the holy cities of Najaf and Karbala. That's because the city is currently under the control of Moqtada Sadr's militia, and the cleric is holed up in his office there near the tomb of Imam Ali, the holiest shrine of the Shiite sect. The U.S. has vowed to destroy the Mahdi militia and arrest Moqtada, but the expected convergence on Najaf on Friday raises the stakes...
...most miserable Mississippian ever to strum a guitar. When he died, Johnson was 27 and had only 29 songs to his name. Clapton says those recordings (which are just Johnson and his Gibson L-1, no accompaniment) are the finest music ever made, which leads to a conceptual dilemma: if Clapton mimics Johnson's superior minimalism, he has added nothing; if he tinkers, he risks ruining perfection. He's damned both ways...
