Great names need not apply

Article Abstract:

The fact that the State Opera House in Vienna, Austria, has operated well within its budget for a number of years is proving a negative factor as doubts are raised about the artistic quality of its performances. Many leading singers no longer appear there because director Ioan Holaender refuses to pay fees which he regards as too high, while other singers have objected to the uneven casting. The policy of paying only one top fee each evening has certainly helped to reduce costs, but has had a negative impact on the quality of performances.

Sky divers need not apply

Article Abstract:

A CV which shows a wide range of personal skills and academic abilities is most likely to be attractive to a potential employer. Particular attention is given to applicants who have held positions of responsibility and participate in team-related or social activities, rather than lone pursuits. However, it is wise not to include on a CV any activities which could be regarded as too adventurous, such as parachuting, as these could deter a potential employer.
