Panazz also played a few Christmas tunes in expectation of the upcoming season. They have a Christmas album out of traditional Christmas songs done calypso style. They played an upbeat version of "Silver Bells" and "Gloria in Excelsis" combined with "Merry Christmas Everyone." They also covered "When You Wish Upon a Star," which was added to their repertoire after performing their annual gig at Walt Disney World's Epcot Center, where they do 60 shows in two weeks. During the song, percussionist Cliff Coombs made a mockery of conducting as he danced and skipped around the stage, succeeding in firing...
...minor, Opus 54 opened the evening with bright and pleasant fervor. According to the program notes, this particular concer-to--like a good deal of his other pieces--was composed for Schumann's wife Clara, who performed as the soloist during its premeire on Dec. 4, 1845. Upon hearing the concerto, one cannot help but dream about what a wonderful and passionate performance the premiere must have been.

"Repeatedly, the courts have rejected the view that general ads violate campaign laws unless the ads explicitly use magic words like 'Elect so-and-so.'" The First Amendment right of free speech has weighed heavily upon the courts in "soft money" cases, and judges have been reluctant to stop parties and interest groups from funding general campaign ads unless they clearly stepped over the line. The vagueness of the law and the courts' reluctance to step in are why the checks for campaign 2000 are already...
...different way to deal with the President, as we probably should." TIME Washington columnist Margaret Carlson agrees. "There is only one President but thousands of soldiers," she says. One is not as easily dispensable as the other. "Moreover," she adds, "the military is an authoritative institution that relies upon total obedience and discipline." The presidency is a unique political institution that operates in the world of compromise. Of course, that remains to be seen...
