Michael Severn, president of Columbia University and one of Mondale's former law professors at the University of Minnesota, usually played the President. At other times Aaron or Senior Adviser Richard Leone was the Reagan standin. Mondale would repeat some answers four times, refining his phrasing and gestures. The sessions were filmed and then critiqued. Said one Mondale adviser: "It's like a graduate seminar being videotaped...
...Gogh's Arlesian work offers one of the most moving narratives of development in Western art: a painter-and, needless to repeat, a very great one-inventing a landscape as it invents him. The inevitable result is that one cannot visit Aries without seeing Van Goghs everywhere.

The embryos can be thawed and then transferred to the woman's uterus, eliminating the need to repeat egg retrieval and fertilization. Some 30% to 50% of embryos do not survive the deep freeze. Those that do may actually have a better chance of successful implantation than do newly fertilized embryos. This is because the recipient has not been given hormones to stimulate ovulation, a treatment that may actually interfere with implantation...
