South African writer and actress Pamela Gien's new one-woman play, "The Syringa Tree," is the tragic story of two South African families - one black, one white - and the complex love they share, even as race stands between them. While this isn't unexplored territory, what makes this production a standout is Gien's impressive performance in creating 28 fully realized characters on a sparsely decorated stage. Through her expressive movements and creative vocalizations - most startlingly in rapid-fire exchanges between six-year old Elizabeth and her redoubtable, deep-voiced South African caretaker - Gien single-handedly fills the stage...
...lights never went out, and the sun came up in the morning. Then John McCain was going to win the nomination, the Red Sox were going to win the World Series, Marion Jones was going to win five gold medals and Tommy Lee was going to win Pamela Anderson's heart back. No, no, no and no. Even when it seemed like something happened this year, it didn't. Elian looked at Disney World and went back home. We kept our Miranda rights.

Students can curl up with Onania one night and the next, with Pamela, a novel "suffused with palpitating breasts," according to Festa...
Instead, Strong dumped her doctor and called Dr. Pamela Sutton, the specialist who had helped her before. Soon she was back on the golf course. She could play until recently, when her condition slid. "I wouldn't be alive today if not for Pam Sutton," she says. Strong is fortunate to have sought help. Many don't, for a misguided reason: 82% of respondents in one study agreed with a pollster that "it is easy to become too reliant on pain medication." In fact, fewer than 1% of those treated with opioids become addicted...
