...tunderstand a word of Italian is vital to the fullenjoyment of the opera and perhaps even moreimportant in that scenario. Although an equalquality of clarity in comparison to CD studioversions cannot be justly expected, it was shownthat certain voices were more fully comprehendiblethan others. Unfortunately, the lead roles ofButterfly (Paula Delligatti) and Pinkerton (LuisLima) were more adept at singing passages drivenby emotive tendencies than they were at filling inall those passages of recitative (sung speech ordialogue).

There's one way HILLARY CLINTON could make back all the money she and her husband forked over to Paula Jones, while getting a little sly revenge on Bill: take the $5 million book contract JUDITH REGAN is offering her.
