Backup split end Ed Kmak was wide open in the left corner of the end zone, but Hetherington overthrew the ball. Kmak leaped and caught the pass but landed out of bounds as the horn sounded...
...production is not unconvincing, but director Gilbert's failure to very the onstage mood makes for three hours of restless seat-sliding. Perhaps a more traditional interpretation would have been more successful than the Huntington's, whose only connection with O'Neill is the occasional blast of the fog horn that reminds the audience of the setting...
...indigenous peoples sought redress through roadblocks and public protests instead. Still, Canada's attempts to codify native self-government was the latest sign that the struggle for political recognition by native peoples across North and South America is bearing some fruit.

Dissonant guitar and horn solos over driving, repetitive rhythm sections are the norm here, but this stuff is too much fun to feel avant-garde...
