...Johannes Brahms’ “Double Concerto in A minor,” a concerto for violin and cello soloists that is considered one of the composer’s greatest masterpieces. The twin guest performers took to the stage for this number. The Bruskins are slender brunettes distinguishable only by the size of their instruments, violin and cello respectively. The three movements of the concerto, Allegro, Andante, and Vivace non Troppo, were played with great fluidity by the orchestra, providing a backdrop to showcase the soloists’ talents.Allegro, the first movement of the concerto, featured...
...Almodvar sounds--as he admits he does--"feelthy" when he discusses Cruz's physicality, "those eyes, her beautiful teets," she doesn't mind, since he has given the slender actress the weightiest role of her career (and also maybe because somehow it doesn't seem as feelthy coming from a gay guy). The Oscar-winning writer-director of Talk to Her and All About My Mother cast Cruz as the embodiment of motherhood in a movie about three generations of women surviving the wild winds of his home turf, La Mancha, Spain--winds that blow in fires, death...

At first glance he appears to be a pretty standard and uninteresting type; you would pass him in the street without giving him a second thought. If you spoke to him, as documentary director Amy Berg lengthily did, you would find him to be rather bland and affectless, not particularly forthcoming about his long and astonishing career...
...showed me both the Belkin and the Netgear, and I knew nothing of the cost, I would choose the Netgear, because of its glossy, slender body. But if you told me that the Netgear has a list price that's $50 higher than the Belkin, I?d probably reach for the matte-black Belkin instead. In either case you?ll be able to make all the free calls you want to other Skype users, and even pay Skype?s nominal rates to call that more traditional sort of phone - for as long as it still exists...
