...when performed, the acting proves shallow. With so many characters, the cast cannot engage with any particular one. This was reflected in Friday’s performance. Adam, played by Samson Kohansky, was by far the best performer of the night. His success was not only due to his own talent, but also to his character, the most developed and only constant one in the play. Kohansky, a Brandeis senior, gave a strong performance, holding the play together while several other cast members were stumbling over their lines...
...good again. On fourth-and-four, in his second career start, where would Pizzotti go? He’d go 42 yards downfield to a streaking Matt Luft, who made his defender miss before beating everyone to the endzone. “Chris hit the young freshman on a shallow cross on what we call a smash route,” Murphy said. “Matt Luft made the exact adjustment.” Now down just 24-14, a direct snap out of a punt formation on a similar fourth-down situation on the next possession saw sophomore...

Then, as intended, they rust. Over time they take on an appearance that's part weathered cliffside, part color field painting...
...interesting ways [May 7]. A decade of archaeological exploration confirmed that in June 1607, a settlement was established in "northern Virginia" at what is now Popham Beach in Phippsburg, Maine. This colony lasted just over a year, but the colonists managed to build a 30-ton, 50-ft., shallow-draft vessel they named Virginia, which explored the coast and crossed the Atlantic twice. Four hundred years later, Maine is still recognized as home to the best boat builders in the world. From elegant yachts to Bath Iron Works' naval destroyers, Maine is celebrating 400 years of shipbuilding heritage...
...when those goals seem to conflict. Falwell practiced the politics of division, flinging damnation at those who resisted his vision of a Godly America. Now a rising generation of Christian leaders is looking to bring people together: the politics of division may be a shrewd electoral strategy but a shallow spiritual one. Their God is bigger than their party, more mysterious, more forgiving and more embracing. It is only partly wishful thinking when a progressive evangelical counterforce to Falwell like Jim Wallis declares that "the Evangelicals have left the Right. They now reside with Jesus...
