...Elysium,” choreographed by Claudia F. Schreier ’08, was, by far, the best piece of the night. Schreier’s choreography struck the ideal balance between the abstraction typical of modern dance and the visual appeal of classical ballet. The best moments of her exquisite choreography featured not only the usual leaps and turns but also interesting new movements, like dragged splits. She worked with the most talented HBC members: Lynch, Moore, Shee, Walker, and James C. Fuller ’10. Walker shone the brightest, but all five brought Schreier?...

...wrong, that the computer in that screenshot hadn't been "Feltenized." Upshot: Microsoft's most embarrassing week yet at the federal courthouse, as a company of 29,000 employees scrambled to produce a video that wasn't misleadingly edited.
