...soul of “The Trojan War Will Not Take Place!” was its acting. Convincingly ditzy and self-involved, Geraldine K. Prasuhn ’09 brought a vapid Helen to life. As her foil, the war-weary Hector, Christopher J. Carothers ’11 embodied the disillusionment and despair that Giraudoux associates with war. Carothers infused his character with just the right combination of masculine pride and unwavering dedication to family. The stark contrast between Carothers and Prasuhn spoke to the struggle between the themes of fate and free will that dominated the play...
...past is conflicted out of this one. Bill Clinton's comment that the Obama campaign - or Obama's Iraq war position, depending on who you believe - was "a fairy tale" makes it impossible for him to play that role here. It's going to take some rare and wise soul to sort this one out - both candidates ought to get on the phone to liberal evangelist Jim Wallis, who knows their hearts well and hosted them both in a forum about faith last summer...
Sure, Burrell said, Diana told him Dodi was "charming, handsome and very attentive."

But it was classic Bowman. He said afterwards: "I had an attack, a strategy, the heart, soul and aggressiveness to challenge." It worked, earning him a bronze medal. It did not, however, make Carroll happy. After years of battling Bowman to train properly, he had finally had enough. "You can't train someone who's untrainable or coach someone who's uncoachable," an exasperated Carroll said following...
...What makes Republican politics into three-dimensional chess is that no candidate seems to measure up to the cherished image of a foursquare Reagan Republican. The party is enduring a dark night of the soul, almost entirely self-inflicted. After the excesses of the recent Republican majority in Congress, the party no longer sees a fiscal conservative in the mirror, while the Bush Administration's chesty foreign policy and churchy personality have driven wedges between conservatives and neoconservatives, between Evangelicals and pragmatists. Trying to find a candidate to rally around is like asking a roomful of picky eaters to agree...
