...decision of Brigham and Women's to make it two-fold came about in June," he said. "I applaud the vision and courage of the leadership of Brigham and Women's and MGH in coming together...
...ballads "My Heart Won't Lie" and "Hold Me for a While" are enjoyable, but lack the gusto that makes others on the album stand out.

Neither of them has examined the holdings soon to fall under...

The entire theatre, including the stage, is elevated about four feet above the pool floor by a system of wooden beams (I peeked under a trap door); this hollow, thin stage helped four slim girls with tap shoes register a 6.0 on the Richter scale in the first scene. The remnants of the pool are beautiful: an old sloped roof gives the feeling...
