...imbues the character with a sad dignity that ends up far more affecting than the lovers' travails. As Parkis, the detective hired by Bendrix to follow Sarah, the enormously underrated British actor Ian Hart steals every scene he's in. His Parkis is bumbling and a bit obsequious, but somehow a pervasive pathos in the performance overwhelms the lesser comic effect...
...groups like Chemical Brothers and Massive Attack. Still, the easiest explanation for the persistence of the electronica label is the lack of a regular vocalist. After all, how many rock bands can you name that don't have a singer? In keeping with this idea of unconventionality, the band somehow managed to play a sterling, albeit too-short, set and escape the stage without uttering a single word.

They should possess the necessary personal attributes to create such support during the brief duration of the council campaign. As the situation currently stands, and has often stood in the past, those few students who vote in two weeks will merely be expressing a lukewarm preference for one candidate over the others, and not an impassioned advocacy. Even if there were serious issues at stake--which admittedly there...
