...Own” seems flat; it has lost the grit of the original recording. Several verses of the otherwise serviceable “La Vie Boheme” are inexplicably rearranged. The soundtrack also includes the bonus track “Love Heals,” written by Jonathan Larson for an organization promoting AIDS education while he was writing “Rent.” Sadly, the track is cheesy, uneven in pace, and simply out of place. A tribute to Jonathan Larson is a great idea, but this special track doesn’t hold a candle...

...ravages of AIDS would have broad appeal. (Maybe it had something to do with the show’s rockin’ soundtrack and attractive cast of multi-cultural twenty-somethings.)But all of this success was bittersweet, as the show’s writer and composer, Jonathan Larson, died suddenly from an aneurysm shortly before its debut.

...Kent Larson: Louis Kahn's Hurva Synagogue Kahn, one of the 20th century's greatest architects, died in 1974 before the synagogue was built in Jerusalem, and the project died with him. Yet now it exists, virtually, thanks to a stunning act of digital cyber-architecture by architect Larson and computer expert Koji Tsuchiya. They have concocted 20 uncannily realistic ''views'' on a Silicon Graphics workstation. Even the materials are authentic, since Larson digitized photos of the concrete, stone and wood from Kahn's Center for British Art at Yale and used them to ''build'' the synagogue...

...agree with the way our company was portrayed in Erik Larson's report. We offer the highest-quality services to consumers at a range of competitive prices. We are recognized for our leadership in consumerism. We are dedicated to achieving market-share gains with the integrity and compassion our profession demands. A hostile takeover of the Loewen Group by Service Corp. International would be harmful to consumers and the industry.
