...philosophical burglar, a relaxation-technique enthusiast, an Arab sheik and plates of sardines all contribute to the side-splitting humor of the Loeb Mainstage's play within a play, Noises Off. Written by Michael Frayn, Noises Off is really about a second-rate theater company's attempt to stage second-rate playwright Robin House-monger's Nothing On. This HRDC production employs skillful direction and great comic talent to focus on the onstage and backstage sexual politics of a group of British has-been actors...

Brown's Vaccine 1.0 is available free on most national computer networks, including CompuServe, the Source and GEnie. InterPath's McAfee fights viruses from a 27-ft. mobile home known as the Bugbuster.
