Towards the end of the Michaelmas Term, most students start to prepare written work for submission and evaluation. This workshop, which follows on from the academic writing style webinar earlier in the term, offers some key ideas about the larger structure of a piece of academic writing, and shows students how best and most effectively to present their ideas.
This end-of-term workshop uses short video clips, reading and discussion to explore an important aspect of British culture, the class system, and how it relates to universities.
So much hard work is compromised due to poor editing. Editing is much more than just simple proof-reading. It involves a critical approach to planning, setting out information, constructing argument, paragraphing, sentencing and ultimately understanding the effect of what we write on the reader. In this workshop we look at a variety of elements in the editing process and we use good models and student work to help us.
This workshop will show you to how to edit efficiently and effectively. We'll be looking at a number of strategies with examples and the aim is to edit 'smart', and create a text that presents your ideas as fluently and coherently as possible.
This workshop discusses the basic principles of academic style, helping you to write more formally, persuasively and precisely. Learn how to attain clarity and accuracy and how to use the passive voice and tentative language (hedging). Students will apply their learning to practical examples.
The most significant grammar mistakes that foreign students make are usually those that greatly change the meaning of the sentence. Modals, such as can or would, are often used to indicate the position of the writer in academic writing, so their inaccurate use can easily give a very different meaning from that intended.
Idioms form an important part of everyday spoken English and offer insights into British culture and society. In this informal workshop, you will explore English idiomatic expressions within their cultural context and will put them into practice through a range of simple exercises.
This is a workshop which will concentrate on intonation and stress within normal spoken and written English, and will aim to give students some idea of how stress and intonation work at the level of the sentence or even the paragraph. It should help students understand how intonation is used in English to convey meaning beyond the surface value of individual words, and should help them to use this technique as well.
Methodology ad results are two very common chapters in academic papers and dissertations/theses, especially in scientific subjects. This workshop will focus mainly on linguistic aspects of these chapters.
This workshops offers students the chance to give a short presentation, with or without PowerPoint. Its aim is to hone the skills required for an effective academic presentation, and to receive feedback in a supportive and friendly environment. A maximum 7 students only to present. Participating students MUST bring a pre-prepared, short (10 mins maximum) presentation with them on a USB stick. Interactive whiteboard available for use; no laptops required. It is recommended that you also bring a printout of your presentation (6 slides per page) for feedback. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO PRESENT, PLEASE NOTE THIS UNDER THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
Practise your presentation skills and receive peer and tutor feedback. This workshop offers students the chance to give a short presentation, with or without PowerPoint. Its aim is to hone the skills required for an effective presentation, and to practise in a supportive and friendly environment. A maximum 7 students only to present (Please note in the special requirements if you DO NOT wish to present). Students must bring a pre-prepared, short presentation with them on a USB stick; please don't bring a laptop. Please also bring a printout of your presentation (6 slides per page) to enable better feedback.
In this workshop we will look principally at the components of 'fast speech'. These include use of weak forms, linking, stress time etc. The aim of the session is both to recognise those aspects of pronunciation which aid listening and to get plenty of practice. Students who have come to previous sessions on pronunciation with me are advised that some material will be repeated.
Foreign students often find that in everyday situations they struggle to understand native speakers, especially when they are talking quickly. Students also sometimes struggle to speak quickly themselves. This workshop will review some of the ways in which English pronunciation changes during fast, natural speech. It should therefore help students' listening and speaking.
Are you a speaker of Spanish, Catalan, Portugese, Italian or French? Would you like to have the chance to work on aspects of your English pronunciation? If so, join us for this fun and informal workshop, which offers pronunciation practice for speakers of Italic (Latin-derived) languages. Vowel and consonant sounds, linking, stress and intonation will be covered.

This workshop offers a friendly forum in which speakers of Asian languages can practise aspects of English pronunciation. The focus will be on speakers of Chinese and Japanese, but speakers of all Asian languages may attend if space permits.
Foreign students tend to have different pronunciation problems according to their first language. This workshop focuses on a group of related sounds that are often problematic for speakers of Chinese, Japanese and Korean, so these students will be given priority. However, speakers of other languages can register an interest and be placed on a waiting list. They will be given a place if space permits.
This is a workshop for speakers of Italic Languages (Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Catalan) It will focus on sounds which tend to cause difficulties across these languages (vowels sounds, the difference between b/v or l/w etcetera) and offer the chance for students to practice and improve the sound of their spoken English.
This workshop offers an introduction to various techniques for proof-reading a text, to try to ensure that it is as error-free and coherent as possible. It will also teach how to read and use basic proof-reading symbols.
This workshop will consider ways of referencing in a coherent and legible fashion, establishing what might be best practice for the needs of particular academic formats (dissertation, article, paper etc). Footnoting will also be looked at.
The exams that take place towards the end of the academic year can sometimes seem threatening. They don't have to. This workshop will look at ways to prepare efficiently and effectively in the run-up to exams, working on various aspects of the revision process all the way through to the exams themselves VENUE: - http://cam.adobeconnect.com/revisionskills/
Academic writing should be clear and concise. It should be simple, easy to read and 'to the point'. To ensure that your writing meets these criteria, you should edit it with care. This workshop will focus on attaining clarity and concision through a range of simple self-editing exercises.
To ensure that your writing is logical, clear and concise, you should edit it with care. In this workshop, you will learn how to revise, improve and enhance your writing through a range of simple self-editing exercises.
Why waste time going to translation dictionaries or just hoping that what you write will be right? The best resource for writing an academic paper in your subject is other papers which you can use as a model for your own writing. In this workshop we look at how to use journal papers and search engines to expand the accuracy and range of your academic vocabulary. Please make sure you bring a paper copy of a well-written journal paper from your field to the workshop.

Mark Strong Sr., a 57-year-old insurance agent accused of helping fitness instructor Alexis Wright use her Maine studio as a front for prostitution, was convicted on 13 counts of promotion of prostitution on March 6, 2013. He was sentenced to serve 20 days in jail on March 21, 2013. Prosecutors said he was a business partner who controlled, supervised and managed the prostitution business that operated out of a Zumba studio. Strong acknowledged having an affair with Wright and helping her open the studio but contends he didn't profit from her activities. His attorneys said he was a smitten lover who wanted to help the single mother.

GREENSBORO, N.C. – Corey Carlin has been named the head coach of the UNCG volleyball Director of Athletics Kim Record announced Wednesday. Carlin, who owns 15 total years of collegiate volleyball coaching experience, including two seasons as the head coach at Austin Peay, is the fifth head coach in program history.
"We are excited to welcome Corey Carlin to the UNCG family," Record said. "He brings a wealth of knowledge as a collegiate coach for 15 years. His winning experiences at strong mid-major programs will be an asset to our volleyball program at UNCG. He has a passion for volleyball and his enthusiasm will pay dividends for our program."
Carlin has spent the previous four years as the top assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at his alma mater Ball State. During the 2013 season, Carlin helped lead Ball State to a 24-8 overall record which included a five-set win over eventual NCAA Tournament qualifier Ohio on the road. The Cardinals finished the season ranked 64th in the RPI and placed a league-high five players on the All-Mid-American Conference Teams – including three on the First Team.
"First, I would like to thank Kim Record, Stacy Kosciak and all of those involved in the hiring process for this terrific opportunity," Carlin said. "From my first interaction, the passion for this program to reach new heights was evident from everyone I spoke to. I feel blessed to come into a program that has a good tradition. They have won more than they've lost over the past 10 years so the challenge isn't rebuilding as much as elevating the program to a higher level, which is competing for SoCon championships. With the recent movement of teams within the conference, the league is wide open. That provides us with a tremendous opportunity to establish a new level of how we compete and what we are about."
In his first season on the Ball State bench, Carlin helped guide the Cardinals to the program's eighth Mid-American Conference regular season championship and a 24-5 (14-2 MAC) record in 2010. BSU's .828 winning percentage was the third-best in program history and ranked 17th in the nation among the 328 NCAA Division I Programs.
He helped guide four players to All-MAC accolades in 2010, with Alyssa Rio and Kelsey Brandl earning All-MAC First Team and Brittany McGinnis and Whitney Heeres garnering All-MAC Second Team honors.
In 2011, Carlin helped coach the Cardinals back to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since the 2002 season as Ball State earned the program's second-ever at-large bid into the 64-team event. BSU finished the season with a 25-8 (12-4 MAC) record and ranked 36th in the NCAA Women's Volleyball RPI rankings among the 327 NCAA Division I programs. Ball State also received votes in the American Volleyball Coaches Association Division I Coaches poll for the first time since the 1995 season.
"Working with some great coaches in the past, I've learned invaluable lessons on running a competitive Division I program the right way," Carlin said. "Most recently, the opportunity working with arguably the best technical trainer in the country in Steve Shondell has taught me the importance of ball control. The focus and detail spent on developing high level and consistent ball control was the main reason Ball State has had so much success in recent years. That proven model of training will be our goal at UNCG. Being the best ball control team in the SoCon is what we want to be known for."
Carlin also assisted in mentoring a school-record four student-athletes to All-MAC First Team accolades during the 2011 season, with Brandl, Jennifer Boyd, Kara Bates and Catie Fredrich all picking up the honor. Boyd would go on to earn Academic All-MAC honors, while Bates was named to the MAC All-Tournament Team marking BSU's first all-tournament selection since the 2005 season.
In 2012, Carlin helped Bates pick up her second consecutive All-MAC First Team honor, while senior transfer Lisa Scott also earned a spot on the league's top squad. In addition, freshman Jenna Spadafora earned recognition on the MAC All-Freshman Team.
Prior to joining the Ball State staff, Carlin spent two seasons as an assistant coach at Eastern Kentucky University where he was involved with all duties of daily operations for the program, including serving as the primary recruiter and overseeing academic progress. In 2009, Carlin helped coach Lauren Snyder and Abby O'Connor to Second Team All-Ohio Valley Conference honors, with Snyder also earning OVC All-Newcomer Team accolades. The program also finished the 2009-10 academic year with a 3.37 grade-point average, which was the second-highest average among all EKU athletic teams.
Prior to joining the Eastern Kentucky staff for the 2008 season, Carlin spent five years at Austin Peay, including serving as the program's head coach for the 2005 and 2006 seasons. As the Governors' head coach, Carlin helped the program achieve a perfect NCAA Academic Progress Rate for the 2005-06 season, while administering all aspects of the program.
In his final season as head coach, Carlin tutored Dodi Szymsha to OVC All-Newcomer Team accolades. His team established top 10 statistical marks in seven categories in the Austin Peay record books his first season, including top five efforts in total blocks and blocks per game.
Carlin's first collegiate coaching break came in 1998, when he was named the first assistant at Tarleton State University. After two seasons with the TexAnns, Carlin was named the top assistant coach at Evansville, where he spent 2000 and 2001. Carlin also served as the director of the MidSouth Volleyball Academy from 2004-2008 after co-founding the club.
From 1996-1998, Carlin was the head coach of the Ball State University men's club team, where he helped guide the program to a 22-10 record in his final season, including a second-place finish at the prestigious Michigan State Men's Club Volleyball Spring Tournament.
Carlin earned his bachelor's degree in general studies with an emphasis in sports administration from Ball State in May of 1998. He earned his master's degree in physical education in May of 2000 from Tarleton State.
"There will be challenges, as with any position, but with the expectations, resources and support we have at UNCG those challenges can be met and overcome," Carlin added. "I am excited about working with these young ladies and getting started. "

The seller shall withhold such tax and pay to the Revenue Department, when he/she earn an income from the sale of immovable property (including condominium unit).

What is a proxy?
A proxy is a special kind of web server that serves as an intermediary between you and a website you are accessing. When you browse through a proxy, your browser only "talks" to the proxy server, which in turn talks to the website. This has the following major implications:
1.The website being accessed has no knowledge of your IP address. Thus it becomes difficult* for the websites to identify and track you (as long as you don't provide them your personal information of course!).
2.Most automated systems aiming to inspect/modify users' traffic (such as the notorious Internet filters) detect the "undesirable" traffic by matching the server you are connecting to against some black list. Using a proxy lets you bypass these checks (as you are now technically connecting to a different server) making it the easiest censorship circumvention tool out there.

COLUMBUS – The Columbus Crew left it very late, but got the goal they needed just before full time to take a dramatic 1-0 win over Chivas USA on Wednesday, jumping back into the Eastern Conference playoff picture.
Justin Meram, an 80th-minute substitute, played the hero, firing home from six yards in the 89th minute.
OPTA SPOTLIGHT: Meram plays the hero with late winner
The winning play started with Tony Tchani, another second-half substitute, feeding Federico Higuain down the left side. Higuain's cross was touched onto goal by teammate Jairo Arrieta, but Dan Kennedy made the save.
However, the rebound went back to Arrieta who, while prone, still managed to head backward into the path of an onrushing Meram for the attacker's fourth goal of the season.
Andy Gruenebaum then preserved the win with a save of Oswaldo Minda in the 92nd minute.
The excitement was a far cry from a the somewhat sloppy first half, which saw Gruenebaum make a series of quality saves to keep the home side in it. Kennedy did his part as well, adding to a lengthy highlight reel. He was also helped by the post, which kept out Julius James' powerful header late in the first after a Higuain set piece.
Both teams tightened up in the second half, closing down space as Chivas slowly morphed from a 4-3-3 to a 4-5-1. When the dangerous duo of Nick LaBrocca and Ryan Smith were subbed out, that signaled the Rojiblancos' intent to play for the point.
Crew manager Robert Warzycha, on the other hand, went all-in for the full three points, and eventually got the reward he was looking for.
The Crew (13-10-6, 45) broke a two-game losing streak and moved into fifth-place in the Eastern Conference and the final playoff spot, a point ahead of D.C. United and a point back of fourth-place Houston. The Crew play at Chicago on Saturday.
Chivas (7-14-7) appeared set to end a three-game losing streak but instead fell to 0-6-2 in the past eight games. They'll play at D.C. United on Sunday
MLSsoccer.com Men of the Match
|What We Saw
|Andy Gruenebaum
|Did what he's been doing all year, producing a number of spectacular saves to keep his side in position to grab a result.
|Tony Tchani
|Changed where the game was played by imposing his physicality on the Chivas midfield. How long 'til he's finally a starter?
|Dan Kennedy
|Not a lot more you can ask from your 'keeper. Every player on Chivas owes him an apology to one degree or another.

The reason some people hate PETA is because they advocate animal rights; not the animals' rights but rather their right to eat animals. They straddle a very fine political line but so far they have attracted more people to their cause. In all honesty we think everyone should have a right to eat tasty animals but hey we just make shirts.

Eleven Years after 9/11, Terror Effects Persist
A couple of years ago, Cato published a book, Terrorizing Ourselves, that critically examined American counterterrorism efforts.
Since that time, the United States was able to put Osama bin Laden to rest. But even this dramatic and yearned-for development, already the stuff of fable, hasn't been able to temper the level of self-terrorization in the American public.
I've been sorting through poll data about terrorism from 9/11 to the present day. Although there are some temporary bumps and wiggles in reaction to events during the course of those 11 years, there has been very little, if any, decline in the degree to which Americans express anxiety about terrorism.
That is, for the most part there has been little change since late 2001 in the numbers who say they are worried that they will become a victim of terrorism, consider another major attack in the near future to be likely, are willing to trade civil liberties for security, have confidence in the government's ability to prevent or to protect them from further terrorism, or think the United States is winning in the war on terrorism.
I have written a fuller account here in Sunday's Philadelphia Inquirer. And there are some more extensive ruminations on what I call the "terrorism delusion" in the current International Security. That article deals with the exaggerations of the threat presented by terrorism and with the distortions of perspective these exaggerations have inspired—distortions that have in turn inspired a determined and expensive quest to ferret out, and even to create, the nearly nonexistent. It also supplies a quantitative assessment of the costs of the terrorism delusion.
Several of the poll trends I use for my conclusions are posted here.
As the Inquirer piece points out, the lack of change is quite remarkable given that no Islamist terrorist has been able to detonate even the simplest of bombs in the United States, there has been no sizable attack in the country, bin Laden is dead, alarmist hype coming out of Washington has declined (though Harvard continues to give it the old college try), and an American's chance of being killed by a terrorist is about one in 3.5 million per year.
I conclude in the Inquirer piece that it seems to suggest that the public is
likely to continue uncritically to support extravagant counterterrorism expenditures including incessant security checks, civil liberties intrusions, expanded police powers, harassment at airports, and militarized forays overseas if they can convincingly be associated with the quest to stamp out terrorism.
Both pieces use a quote from anthropologist Scott Atran: "Perhaps never in the history of human conflict have so few people with so few actual means and capabilities frightened so many." Much of that fright, it appears, has proven to be perpetual.

A spectator selects a card, memorizes it and shuffles it back in to the pack. The magician explains that the spectator's card will rise up through the deck and it arrives at the top. When the top card is revealed it appears to be the wrong card. Next, the magician takes out a lighter, lights it, and holds it under the wrong card: "Sometimes when you heat the card, it changes". The card is turned over, only to reveal the spectator's selection!
Okay, so far nothing new... Read this: The magician now attempts to change the selection back to the wrong card again. For the second time the lighter is held under the card, but this time the card got seemingly TOO hot, which caused the ink of the card to run! when the card is shown again, the face of their selection has actually MELTED away!!! Visually and magically the card is "restored" back in to its original condition, and can be handed out for examination.

Twenty-five years ago or more I planted a couple of little pear trees behind my house. It was actually quite a big project, as fruit trees do not like growing in areas that are continually wet, and I didn't have a good dry spot for them.
Much of my full-sun property is near a stream where the water table is very high, especially in winter and spring. So I had to build a terrace first, buying soil and building an 80-foot long retaining wall. That provided a great place to grow fruit trees.
One of the pear trees, however, has always been a problem. It didn't blossom for many years. And it wanted to reach for the sky, sending many competing leaders straight up. No matter how much pruning I did, the tree was never a handsome tree. The fruit was mealy and unpleasant. Finally this summer I cranked up my chain saw and cut it down.
I tell you this because I am, in general, a tree hugger. Sometimes literally. When I traveled in the Namibian desert some years ago my guide knew I was interested in all growing things, especially trees, so he took me way off the beaten track to see a tree growing all by itself. It was related to the aloe I grow as a houseplant, but this 25-foot tall tree had a reddish bark that was smooth and beautiful. I got out of the Land Rover, went over to it, and threw my arms around it. I couldn't help myself.
I am prepared to get hate mail from tree huggers about cutting down that pear tree, but I think I did the right thing. Most of us have limited space. We tend our plants, we plant trees for our enjoyment, and to provide us with beauty (and sometimes fruit). So if a tree does not please us, I say, get out the chain saw and cut it down. I am a firm believer in the principle of "It's my garden and I can do whatever I darn well please."
But, as you may know, it is not always as easy as that. In some planned communities, one must get permission from a committee to take down a tree. And some trees, when cut down, send up many root suckers. Instead of one tree, you end up with dozens. I have a solution to the second problem, but not the first.
Common buckthorn and glossy buckthorn (Rhamnus spp.) are two species of small tree that have become real pests in many areas. They were probably introduced as fast–growing shrubs or small trees good at preventing soil erosion, and because they will grow in any type of soil. But they produce lots of berries liked by birds, so the seeds quickly become introduced everywhere near a planting. If you cut one down, more pop up. And pulling them out by the roots is not easy, especially for bigger specimens.
But I've learned that you can kill them off by double girdling the bark. Take a pruning saw and slice through the bark and the green cambium layer beneath it, going all the way around the trunk. But don't cut into the hard wood below that green layer of cambium. The two cuts should be about a foot apart. If done this year, next year the tree will grow normally, but the following year it will not leaf out. It will be dead. And there should be no new sprouts that arise.
Last year I double girdled a staghorn sumac (Rhus typina) to see if the same technique would work on it. Sumac suckers readily, roots traveling long distances and sending up new shoots. In this case, the tree died in less than a year – and no new shoots have grown.
Once I was sitting with an acquaintance, admiring her landscape. But the view was largely blocked by some full-sized white pines. She turned to me and said, "Henry, I think I have to move those pines." I was incredulous. Yes, I allowed, one can move a full sized tree – if you have the money. But a chain saw makes more sense. Roots extend farther from a tree than you might think – well beyond the drip line. Moving a tree with a trunk more than about 6 inches in diameter is risky because you will lose a lot of roots no matter how careful you are.
If you really want to move a full-sized tree, there is something called a tree spade and a few are made big enough to move most trees. These are huge machines that can encircle a tree and send down – by hydraulic pressure – 6 large blades that cut through soil and roots and scoop out a huge rootball. The machine then lifts the tree out and it is transported to a new site that awaits it with a hole of exactly the same size and shape created earlier by the same machine. The larger models will dig out a hole 8 feet wide and nearly as deep. You can see this done on the Web by Googling "How to Move a Full Size Tree". There are several good examples to watch.
So I won't say that a chain saw is my best friend, but I do think that removing certain trees can make sense. After all, if we allow every feral tree to grow, soon we would all be living in a green jungle.

--New competition series premieres July 2 at 10 PM ET/PT on TLC--
(Los Angeles, CA) TLC jumps back in the property game with FOUR HOUSES premiering on Monday, July 2 at 10 PM ET/PT. From the producers of the hit TLC show FOUR WEDDINGS, this new competition series follows four proud homeowners who are invited to preview, critique and score each other's homes for the chance to win $10,000 and an opportunity to be featured in Better Homes and Gardens magazine.
Each one hour episode features design-obsessed homeowners as they vie to impress the other three contestants with their unique decor and personal style. The contestants will have the chance to snoop around each home and give their frank - and often harsh - opinions before awarding the home an overall impression score out of ten and ranking it for originality, style and livability. The homeowner with the highest total score takes home the $10,000 grand prize, an opportunity to be featured in Better Homes and Gardens magazine - and of course, bragging rights.
From contemporary and shabby chic to traditional and funky, each episode of FOUR HOUSES peeks through the keyhole of homes that are as weird and wonderful as their occupants. The premiere episode heads to New Jersey, where stay-at-home Mom Jen puts her classic Princeton manor up against real estate professional Bruce's cliffside home, along with Polish artist Mishka's European lodge and local artist Ricky's provocative, quirky mansion in the woods. Each of these homeowners is convinced their home is the best, but only one house will come up on top. May the best house win!
FOUR HOUSES is produced by ITV Studios America for TLC. Executive producer for ITV is Mitchell Rosenbaum.

Mo. Bill Would Allow Sales Tax for Gateway Arch
JEFFERSON CITY (AP) - Voters in the St. Louis area could get a say on whether to raise the local sales tax to help fund improvements to the grounds of the Gateway Arch.
The Missouri Senate passed legislation Monday that would authorize a local election on a 3/16 percent sales tax, with part of the money going to the Gateway Arch grounds and part to local parks.
Supporters say the legislation would allow the issuance of $120 million of bonds to help finance a $553 million plan to improve the grounds around the St. Louis landmark.
The House already has passed a similar bill.
The Senate version also would allow voters in the Kansas City area to decide whether to impose a one-tenth percent sales tax for parks, trails and greenways in Jackson County.

Last chance to see Shakespeare live before he disappears into the mists of time for another 400 years
Not ready to hang up Halloween? Then Theater 11 has just the treat for you this Friday, All Saints Day and Saturday, All Souls Day). It's a spirited comedy featuring a celebrity ghost, Shakespeare.
Do not, however, confuse local author Stephen Evans' The Ghost Writer with the 2010 Polanski film, Michael Hollinger's dramatic play or the 1984 American Playhouse miniseries. This Ghost Writer has more in common with Noel Coward's Blithe Spirit and with a Twilight Zone episode in which zany confusion ensues when a modern failure channels the Bard.
The show debuted in 1990 with The Annapolis Theater Project, a prior incarnation of Theater 11. Michael Gilles, a founder of both groups, likes the play so well that he has now directed it twice. In the playbill, he promises laughs and crazy surprises from talented actors who are funny and sincere, and he's not lying. Recent Colonial Players' veterans Jason Vellon and Jeffery Miller (Bell Book and Candle castmates) and Duncan Hood (Scrooge in A Christmas Carol) deliver outstanding comedic performances playing opposite Kate Wheeler's (Jake's Women) straight woman.
Following his third consecutive flop, Michael (Vellon), a gifted playwright who never reached his potential, is on the brink of quitting the business and moving to L.A. with his agent/girlfriend Kate (Wheeler). But there's something in the air besides the stench of failure. While commiserating with his mentor, Harry (Miller), an unscrupulous producer, Michael channels Shakespeare. So flowery and persuasive is Michael's new language that Harry urges him to attempt one last challenge: to write a "lost" Shakespeare script and watch the cash flow in. Against his and Kate's better judgment, Michael acquiesces when he realizes he can see and hear Shakespeare (Hood), while his friends cannot. He pulls an all-nighter to deliver the goods. But he awakens to a new reality in which Kate and Harry are united in heart and conviction that he is crazy.
It's ostensibly a love story with supernatural intervention. But the love affair flounders even before Kate and Harry rekindle an old flame behind Michael's back. I didn't feel vested in the love triangle, but I loved watching Vellon and Hood's collaboration. Who can resist a charismatic cutie and a clown? Who but Hood could sound convincing as he speculates that modern audiences might no longer find sex and violence appealing? Miller, with his commanding voice and presence, is a seductive manipulator.
Would that technical aspects of this show could rival the performances. The lighting is stagnant and insufficient in the portions of the stage the cast occupies most frequently. One important prop seems like a juvenile joke: a flat-sided goldfish bowl meant to suggest a crystal ball. As if a spherical one is so hard to find? The costumes are entirely black and white and boring, except for Shakespeare's period costume with shades of grey. I'm still trying to figure out if that was accidental or if it has some hidden meaning.
Still, this play showcases great local talent in a story you are bound to enjoy. Don't miss the opportunity to see Shakespeare live before he disappears into the mists of time for another 400 years.
