  The Our Lady of Perpetual Help (OLPH) Church Choir of Cleveland (renamed Exultate), Ohio crowns the beginning of its I0th year of musical activity with the release of its first recording. Formed in the fall of 1982 for the purpose of singing during the services of major religious and national holidays at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church, it is made up of 27 choristers of Lithuanian descent.Over the course of 10 years, in addition to its standing commitment at OLPH Church, the choristers have accepted numerous invitations to perform sacred and folk music. Some highlights of such engagements include performing in Rome (Italy), Chicago, Rochester and Cleveland during the commemoration of the 600th anniversary of Christianity in Lithuania (1987), singing at the McMillan Theatre of the University of Toronto during the Fourth Lithuanian Cultural Congress (June 1988), performing numerous times with the Lithuanian Folk Dance Ensemble "Grandinėlė", and participating in the Seventh Lithuanian Song Festival (Chicago, May 1991.)With the release of this recording, the OLPH choir renders to its listeners a sampling of its Christmas repertoire. We hope that the echo of these hymns will resound in your homes throughout the Christmas season, and that the common language of music will bring all peoples of the world closer together in peace and harmony.

  "Encargos Comunes" se presenta como un proyecto editorial que resume, a partir de tres obras de arquitectura, la práctica e investigación desarrollada por la oficina de arquitectura Taller25 en torno a esta profesión y su vínculo con la clase media contemporánea chilena. Estas obras identifican y visibilizan tres demandas sobre la vivienda: una Construcción nueva, una Reforma y una Ampliación, realizadas en comunas que normalmente se conocen como "Pericentrales" y "Periféricas" de la región Metropolitana (Lo Prado, San Bernardo y Maipú), cuyos mandantes o dueñas/os se inscriben en lo que estadísticamente se define como la clase media, transformándose así en un compendio atípico dentro de la disciplina de la arquitectura. De esta manera, la publicación propone una discusión crítica sobre la producción de la vivienda, y no de cualquier vivienda, sino de las más comunes de todas y, paradójicamente, menos abordadas desde el campo editorial y de divulgación en el área, como pueden ser las operaciones sobre la vivienda de y para los sectores medios.

  Blazing Saddles Meets Young...

  1974 was a busy year for Mel Brooks. Although still recovering after a series of failed projects threatened his career, he pulled off a one-two punch that saw the release of two of the most beloved American comedies ever made: Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein. Although both films are well-known, the stories beyond the making of each movie are less so. How did they come to be, and how did the era's culture and politics not only permit them to be made, but help them to become enduring comedy classics? 
   
   
   
  With their riotous parodies of Westerns and classic horror movies, Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein were not only hilarious. They played with charged social and cultural themes in an inimitable way, raising the bar for modern comedies even as they reshaped the two genres they were sending up. Blazing Saddles Meets Young Frankenstein: The 50th Anniversary of the Year of Mel Brooks explores in depth the zeitgeist and cinematic alchemy that led to 1974 becoming "the year of Mel Brooks."
