...wine in celebration. This is shortly followed by the entire cast line dancing to Nelly Furtado’s “Say It Right.” Although I was at first skeptical of Nauzyciel’s decision to conclude the performance with a modern day pop song, I found, to my surprise, that the lyrics were quite fitting with the story of “Julius Caesar.” This choice underscores Nauzyciel’s approach to the production. Although the heavy focus on musical and artistic elements detract from the strength of the acting...
...maximize such leisure time stifled by the lack of a resource essential to truly uninhibited lounging—cable television. While most, including the University, have sat silently by, one particularly entrepreneurial student, Nicholas J. Castine ’09 took charge. Motivated by his longing for the soothing song of SportsCenter and sitcoms upon his arrival at Harvard as a transfer student in the fall of 2006, Castine launched Crimson Cable, which developed a surprisingly feasible proposal for a business to provide cable via power lines to Harvard’s 12 undergraduate houses, only to see the proposal...

A group of Nobel laureates, actors and athletes wrote an open letter to President Hu coinciding with Spielberg's resignation, calling on Beijing to do more to promote peace in the war-ravaged region. And large corporate sponsors, such as General Electric, Microsoft and Coca-Cola, are also being lobbied to urge Beijing to do more...
