Jordan River Forum

Matching your ethnicity with your khakis I get the feeling that the loudest racial critics would have everyone believe that European Americans are the lone source of all bigotry in America, and racist undercurrents saturate everything we say and do.

These kids today...

By Phil Kijak · Friday, Sept. 26,2003 1:21 a.m.

When you've taken road trips, you've tended to do some strange things to cure boredom. You've played games, noticed obscure billboards or, if you're like my friends and I, you've listened to Radio Disney.

WUSA loses its kick

By Alyson Brodsy · Friday, Sept. 26,2003 1:19 a.m.

Sad for some, but true for all Americans, soccer isn't our country's favorite pastime. It's the smell of a worn leather glove and the crack of a bat that are familiar to those in the U.S., not the wear of perfect fitting shin guards or the decision to buy Copa or Beckenbauer cleats.

East meets West in new opera

By Adam Sedia · Friday, Sept. 26,2003 1:01 a.m.

It's a Western masterpiece with Eastern flavor. It's a hodgepodge of speech and arias. It's Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's "Abduction from the Seraglio." Presented tonight by the IU Opera Theatre, the opera features many different theatrical styles and character types. The libretto has elements of vaudeville, opera buffa, pre-romantic ideas and is in many ways an oriental opera, said Stefano Vizioli, guest stage director. Mozart wrote this at 26, during one of the happiest periods in his life -- when he married Constanza Weber (who shares names with this opera's heroine). Critics say Mozart's personal happiness is reflected in the opera.
