Thus, as expected, Bardo Pond's songs were indeed long and trippy; on Wednesday night most lasted close to ten minutes. They were laced with numerous guitar solos and fuzzy distorted interludes, which provided a solid bed of noise upon which interesting stuff happened. Most of that consisted of various sounds produced by lead singer Isobel Sollenberger--not just from her voice, but also from her flute and violin, which consistently gave the tunes some high-pitched variation.

...stood up, walked around her desk and the two women embraced for almost a minute. Vicky said, "That was Mrs. Bossert, the former master. She's special. There's a word for it. They were open.

House Republicans, stung by the widely-held belief that they've given ground on nearly every big budget issue - and that Bill Clinton is once again being declared the victor - were holding out for an across-the-board spending cut of .42 percent, or about $1.5 billion. And since he recently rejected a more substantial one-percent cut, it was unclear whether President Clinton would be willing...
