...programs aim to address the problems of racism and ethnocentrism through "a multilevel approach," said Hernandez-Gravelle. To that end, the workshops are directed at individuals, institutions and communities, she said...
...areas of science. Those seeking educational reading, however, should look elsewhere; here they will find only confusion. His reinterpretation of the universe in "holistic" or "creative" terms may give Sheldrake a certain popularity in "New Age" circles. But holism must coexist with reductionism, and when science begins to answer multilevel, integrative questions, it will be through the same materialism and hard work it uses now, rather than by a return to mysticism...

These mixed colors and periods set against the bare Fogg courtyard, decorated only with several large moveable blocks, stand out vibrantly, the effect innovative and welcome in an era of elaborate staging. The multilevel courtyard constitutes a director's dream: both the second floor pillared balcony and the third story windows come into play. Slaves discuss their masters out of reach of the actors in the central courtyard, and an angry Aeakos (David Silverman) bellows out of an upper window...
