Arik's Challenge
Sharon may be able to forge a stable government.
A Brighter Look
Bigger photos and a brighter presentation are the hall-
marks of our Engagement, Wedding and Anniversary
announcements that appear in the Mazel Tov! section.
"In response to reader feedback, we've increased the
size of these life-cycle photos," said Editor Robert A.
Sklar. "The trade-off is tighter space for the accompa-
nying text. So we've set, and will enforce, word counts
so the size of the photos isn't compromised."
For more information, please call Editorial Assistant
Seymour Manello at (248) 354-6060, ext. 261.
Continued feedback is invited.
