...True-Frost’s performance. Though the performances are solid, however, the acting takes a back seat to the imaginative staging elements: the aforementioned jazz trio, details like a Chevy hanging from the ceiling, and even some bizarre costuming decisions (Lucius’ in a homebrewed Superman getup). The artistic direction and the choreography of the actors’ movements create a stunning visual image. A shocking moment comes at the conclusion of the play when the dead suddenly rise up with bloodied garments and open a bottle of wine in celebration. This is shortly followed by the entire...
...Narooma, a seaside holiday spot in one of Australia's bellwether marginal seats, Eden-Monaro. He's never been a party member; he just got sick of "complaining about politicians but not knowing how to do anything about it." So when a friend emailed him about online activist group GetUp, the 65-year-old joined and not long afterward hosted the get-together of local members. Last month they organized a debate between local candidates, with voters invited to submit video-recorded questions online - the first such debate in Australia.

...considers lobby group GetUp "a gathering of the converted," but it's an e-gathering with punch. In two years it's amassed 211,000 members.

The theft incited a siege of e-mails, rife with accusations and calls for retaliation, over the Cabot House open list. Mather House, last year’s Green Cup winner...
...song, sits at his card table and doesn’t interact at all with the other two stars. The fashion in the video is perhaps its greatest strength: Mariah looks undeniably hot in the video. Her outfits feature a Vegas-style gold leotard, a strange burgundy bathing suit getup (complete with Louis Vuitton luggage), short shorts and a tied shirt, and a trench coat. The video functions more as a frame for Mariah than anything else. The setting, music, and guests are all quite dissonant. Sorry Mariah, but “Say Somethin?...
