...women in society are central themes in the play. The Agassiz production began weakly with a confusing blend of discordant singing, incomprehensible dialogue, and insecure acting. By the second half, however, the actors became a lot more comfortable on stage (and thankfully sang very little), paving the way for solid performances and a captivating if morbid ending. The women in “Bodas de Sangre” all dominated the stage. The lead female actor, Gabriela Bortolamedi ’10, convincingly portrayed the Bride. Although it was occasionally evident that “Bodas?...

...know the shock of the unexpected is stressful. And researchers have long suspected that stress harms the body. But partly because individual reactions to stress are so variable, solid clinical evidence linking emotions to actual heart attacks and other coronary disease has been elusive. But that's changing. New studies suggest that both chronic strain at work and bad relationships put people at a markedly increased risk of heart trouble. As a result, researchers are calling more insistently for doctors to include the diagnosis and treatment of stress in routine care for patients with heart conditions and for those...
