The Hard Sell
He notes that the handful of films that have attempted to address topics of sexual relations have more often than not been spurned by audiences. There are exceptions to El-Lozys theory. The critically acclaimed Omaret Yacoubian is an excellent example of how far the censors and audiences boundaries have expanded. With a number of graphic and garish scenes, the film tackled all aspects of social life in Egypt, from religiosity to homosexuality. It was also was one of the most successful Arab films of 2006, raking in LE 6 million in the June 25 opening week and LE 20 million over its entire run typically, films are considered commercial successes if they net LE 4-6 million and are smash hits when they hit LE 10 million in box office.

Colleges uneasy about Harvard's deal on tuition
Two words to students hoping to get a break on college tuition now that Harvard and a handful of rivals have increased financial aid to middle-class students: Fat chance. Most colleges say they aren't loosening the purse strings just yet, although as financial-aid season approaches they are under intense pressure from parents to offer Harvard-style deals. Ursinus College's enrollment director, Richard DiFeliciantonio, said a parent already had called him to ask: "'If Harvard can do this for their kids, why can't you?'

"Maybe 30 colleges in the country can even think about doing what Harvard is doing," said DiFeliciantonio, whose school has $150 million in its coffers.
