Their Reality and Our Reality
A common basis for comedy scenes is different perceptions of
reality between the audience and the actor, or between two
actors within the scene. When the actor finds out what is

pupils in the PISA survey.
Politica: The Netanyahu-Silvan Camp
by E. Rauchberger
Ariel Sharon's staff is plenty worried. Not by the economic
or political state of affairs and certainly not by the weaker
ranks of society and the tents erected in Kiryat Hamemshalah
near the Prime Minister's Office. Instead Sharon's staffers
and family members are fretting over recent progress in
criminal investigations of cases in which the Prime Minister
was allegedly involved.
