...board has talked about the possibility of changing the format and allowing students to put position papers in the balloting-materials. The biggest problem is that non-incumbent candidates have little opportunity to familiarize themselves with Coop operations. Because the Coop is a profit-oriented organization, and faces extensive competition, it must keep much of its operating strategy, such as profit margins, expansion and markdowns confidential, or risk losing some of its competitive strength. So, first-time candidates have little opportunity to gain real understanding of the Coop's mechanisms, constraints, and abilities. This handicaps their ability to compose lucid...
Until now. Exploiting advances in computer graphics, liquid-crystal technology and extra-wide-format films, a Canadian company has developed a new technique that makes objects pop out of the screen with unprecedented clarity and brilliance and causes no eyestrain. The new technology, called Imax Solido, was created by Imax Systems, the Toronto-based company that makes movies to be shown on screens the size of six-story buildings. The first Solido film, a largely computer-generated extravaganza called Echoes of the Sun that was co-produced by the Japanese firm Fujitsu, opened last week at the Fujitsu Pavilion...
...talking-head format allows Roth to play to his strengths of critical intelligence and pitch-perfect ear.

They may also offer the most delicious deception of all. Could this skeletal novel be just loosely stitched exercises from Roth's notebooks? Mirrors, mirrors on the wall, who's the falsest of them...
Your reviews only jeopardize that freedom, and cannot, within the space allotted, any any true insight into the "innovative works" you hope to promote interest in. The format of a brief newspaper review, as a guide for the theater-goer, is ideal for the more commercial productions in the houses, or at the Mainstage and Agassiz, but in the name of your own intent, do not become faulty guides to the Ex, where the audience members' greatest delight is in finding their own way.

These apparent contradictions are often difficult for the press to reconcile. The problem is most acute for television, since Bush is almost impossible to capture in the standard evening-news format. To get around this perplexity, the networks have lately adopted more unconventional approaches to Bush and his White House. Earlier this season, ABC's Sam Donaldson and Diane Sawyer did an hour-long interview with Bush and his popular wife Barbara on PrimeTime Live. Last week NBC's Tom Brokaw accompanied Bush through a "typical" day for a special titled A Day in the Life of the White House...
