...lost at times amid the roar of the orchestra.The supporting performances, sung by Tines and Selowsky, were also notable. Both illustrated a keen understanding of comedic timing and, when necessary, emotional sensitivity. Tines in particular shone in both his sotto-voce singing and his demonic fury during the graveyard scene.The orchestra, under the direction of a very capable Yuga J. Cohler ’11, provided a solid foundation for the production. It was evident that the players as well as Cohler were intent on presenting a rhythmically precise performance, which proved to be no mean task. Although there were...
Lebanon long has been a graveyard for Israeli military ambitions. The 2006 war helped ruin the political career of Ehud Olmert, the outgoing Israeli Prime Minister. But with less than two months before leaving office, Olmert and his cabinet appear to have absorbed some of the lessons of the bungled attempt to destroy Hizballah in 2006.

GM plans to reduce its dealer count 27%, to 4,700. "Certainly, having seven or eight brands for 25% of the market...
...normally used for multi-tasking. But in an effort to protect delicate sensibilities, the city made sure to disturb the cemetery as little as possible. Although the panels would produce more energy if they pointed directly south, that orientation would have required adding a structure to the graveyard, and so the city decided against it. Perhaps as a result, Santa Coloma's citizens posed little resistance to the project. Says Serret: "Even the priest of the city's biggest church is collaborating with us." Santiago Pérez likewise says he hasn't heard any complaints from his neighbors...
