...Barak: We are very intensively focused on the Palestinian track, trying to achieve a framework agreement within the next maybe two months or so. There is a strategic need and an opportunity. And at least my partner on this track [Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat] says if there is a will there is a way, so maybe there is a will as well...
...economy and global military reach. The word was popularized in the 1960s to fit the U.S., the only holder of the title today.

IBOC, as the program refers to the play, attempts to explore the complexity of human identity within the framework of a world dominated by a linear fixation on the passage of time. In The Well, a bar so seedy that even the homeless avoid it, Matthew Circland (Jay Chaffin '01) must confront three alternate manifestations of himself from ages 12, 21 and 42 along with his father and ex-fianc; time...
