AppleCare support reps getting Mountain Lion this weekend
If they're going to answer user questions, they probably need to be running it: AppleCare support representatives have been issued redemption codes to download OS X Mountain Lion, according to a report on 9to5Mac tonight.
This amplifies the anticipation for the new OS release, which many suspect could show up by midweek. In 2011, the release of OS X Lion followed on the heels of Apple's quarterly earnings call by one day; the Q3 FY2012 call will be Tuesday July 24th at 2pm PT.
The build number on the version of Mountain Lion that the support reps are downloading is reportedly 12A269, which matches the developer GM build.

text: The National Park Service and the State of Montana announced on Friday they will work together to prepare a new bison management plan. "We really believe this is the time to take another look at bison management," said Al Nash, YNP spokesman. The plan would consider possible changes for managing bison in Yellowstone National Park and the spread of brucellosis. "At this point, the state and the National Park Service have assigned a memorandum of understanding to begin the process," said Nash. "We will look at changes on the landscape, changes to what we understand about the science and the disease brucellosis," said Andrea Jones, Fish Wildlife and Parks spokeswoman. The last Interagency Bison Management Plan (IBMP) was created in 2001. In efforts to control the large bison population that plan allowed Yellowstone National Park to capture and slaughter bison that roamed outside the park. "The previous plan make some assumptions on how bison might react to the environment," said Nash. The new plan would reduce the risk of brucellosis transmission to cattle, damage to property and threats to human safety. "We are still going to use hunting as a primary tool," said Jones. "We intend to continue to use as a way to control bison population."Bob Hoppe owns a ranch outside Gardiner. He said bison come on his property on a daily basis and have caused him thousands of dollars of damage. "I put up fence three times in the last three weeks.. I've been fixing fence every day," said Hoppe. "I lost three horses one year and no one even paid the vet bill."Nash and Jones both said it will be a while before a plan is drafted. This year, Yellowstone National Park has captured and slaughtered more than 600 bison.

Demi Lovato to Have Her Tonsils Removed
If you're like us, you've probably been wondering why Demi Lovato hadn't announced any tour dates in support of her newest release 'Demi.' Lovatics now have an answer -- Demi will be getting her tonsils out!
If you're like us, you've probably been wondering why Demi Lovato hadn't announced any tour dates in support of her newest release 'Demi.' Lovatics now have an answer -- Demi will be getting her tonsils out!
Demi Lovato lets Lovatics tag along with her while she picks out clothes and shares fashion secrets in her VEVO 'Stylized' video.
Demi Lovato is a natural beauty. The 'X Factor' judge / 'Heart Attack' singer took to Twitter to post a makeup-free photo and encouraged her beloved Lovatics to do the same in a concerted effort to boost their self-esteem -- and based on the reactions she garnered, it worked!
Demi Lovato has a long and twisted history with Twitter -- and she recently quit the microblogging site yet again.
Demi Lovato is playing favorites on 'X Factor' -- and the contestant she's rooting for the most may surprise fans of the show.
While her fellow judge Simon Cowell describes Demi Lovato as a "catty brat," the 'X Factor' panelist admits that some of the title is earned — but not necessarily in a bad way.
Sorry, Simon Cowell and L.A. Reid. It's Britney Spears and Demi Lovato who steal the spotlight in the new 'X Factor' promo pics. These hot, sexy pop stars are turning heads in the latest images released by FOX promoting Season 2, which kicks off in September.
The revamped lineup of 'X Factor' judges made its first appearance today at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, where newcomers Britney Spears and Demi Lovato joined Simon Cowell and LA Reid for the first round of auditions for next season.
New 'X Factor' judge Demi Lovato showed off her vocal chops during an intimate concert for VEVO, where she sang four songs from her 'Unbroken' album and the title track from her debut, 'Don't Forget.'
It's official! Demi Lovato is now an 'X Factor' judge.
Demi Lovato's long-estranged father Patrick is pleading with his famous daughter to call him before he undergoes a life-threatening surgery to extract a tumor from his throat. The cancer-stricken elder Lovato expressed that Demi and her older sister Dallas aren't interested in opening up the lines of communication with him. This isn't the first time that Patrick Lovato has reached out to his daughter via the media, but his requests for a phone call are falling on deaf ears.
Demi Lovato is putting her solid gold star power to good use as she lends her beautiful voice to the fifth annual Teens For Jeans campaign. As reported by MTV, Lovato is joining with teen brand Aeropostale and action network Do Something to promote denim-focused clothing drives in schools across the nation.

Taylor has been cast alongside Meryl Streep and Katie Holmes in a new adaptation of "The Giver," based upon Lois Lowry's 1993 young adult novel about a boy's progressive disillusionment with his futuristic, seemingly utopian society, The Weinstein Company announced Friday (September 27).

A Proposal Made To Revamp Fedora Linux
Published on 05 March 2013 08:06 AM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
15 Comments
A proposal has been submitted for comments that would revamp the way Red Hat's Fedora Linux distribution is developed.
The "Fedora revamp" proposal can be found on the
Fedora-devel list
after being published on Monday.
The key changes that the developers behind the proposal seek to achieve is making Rawhide (the latest Fedora development packages) more reliable for installation and use by developers thorugh coherently introducing changes, defining interfaces that applications can rely upon, and ensuring functionality implemented in Fedora doesn't unintentionally regress.
The proposal calls for three levels of stability by having a long-term ABI for applications that won't unnecessarily break, a base design, and an internal API that will hopefully not change within a release life-time. Of course, having a long-term ABI in the Linux world would be a serious challenge with important upstreams like the Linux kernel specifically not being after API/ABI compatibility. Fedora Rawhide is also often quick to pull in unreleased/development packages where API breakage can be frequent and go unreported.
The proposal also calls for more tests to cover stable APIs to fend against accidental breaks and complex changes not affecting other tiers of the stack.
While this fundamentally different Fedora development process may sound at first like some radical user that independently proposes changes, like the crazies out there that have called for
Linux abandoning all architectures but ARM
dropping Ethernet/multi-user/multi-monitor support
, this proposal does have some legs. This proposal was originally discussed in detail in January at the FUDCon Lawrence developer event for Fedora developers. The discussion also continued last month at the Brno Developer Conference at Red Hat in the Czech Republic.
It's possible we may see improvements made to Fedora Rawhide so that it can be more dependable and friendly throughout the Fedora development cycle, but it's unlikely to end with a mandate for a stable Linux API/ABI. Any improvements to the reliability of Rawhide would certainly be welcome by end-users and improving the automated test coverage of important Linux components will benefit everyone.

Top Teachers: Mesa Hinkle
Glen Allen E.S., first grade
Mesa Hinkle found her inspiration as a student inside a Henrico County elementary school. Today, she shares it with her own students inside a Henrico County elementary school.
Hinkle has spent 29 years as part of the county's public school system – 13 as a student at Trevvett, Brookland Middle and Hermitage High and 16 as a teacher.
Now in her sixth year as a first-grade teacher at Glen Allen Elementary, following one year at Dumbarton E.S. and nine at Carver E.S., Hinkle is as excited as ever about what she does and about the children she teaches.
"It's really special to watch them grow from September though June," she said. "It's amazing to see the progress that they make with their reading and writing. They're so enthusiastic, and they get excited about everything and anything."
Hinkle recalled being called to a career in teaching when she was a first-grade student herself, in Suzanne Boswell's class at Trevvett Elementary years ago.
"She had a love of learning and was able to present things in different ways for different learners," Hinkle said. "She made learning fun."
Now, Hinkle is the one passing on those lessons to her own first-graders.
"She is a loving, guiding, nurturing teacher and it shows in her daily instruction and interactions with her students," one nominator wrote. "She makes learning fun while challenging her students to be the best they can be."
Said another: "Her high expectations and dedication to the success of each student has impacted my son, who is currently in her class. She is willing to try new things and use a variety of approaches to meet his needs."
Hinkle stays in regular contact with the parents of each student and uses small-group differentiated instruction as a way to effectively reach students who learn at different speeds or who have different needs. Her positive attitude and frequent encouragement to her students were cited by several nominators as strengths.
"As a former teacher, I recognize how positive she is in her dealings with children - accentuating the positive every day," one nominator wrote of Hinkle. "The reaction of my grandson is obvious. All teachers should have the commitment to their profession and respect for children that Mesa has."

Philippines ambassador to the US visits Filipino Festival in Henrico

Cuisia (pictured above with festival performers) was welcomed by County Manager John Vithoulkas and Brookland District Supervisor Dick Glover (below) at the church, which is located in Lakeside.
While enjoying some of the cultural performances at the festival, the ambassador and his wife had a private lunch with Vithoulkas, Glover, Eldon Burton (an outreach representative from U.S. Senator Mark R. Warner's Office) and Father James Begley, the pastor of OLL. > Read more.

'Planes' sequel crashes
'Fire and Rescue' proves too predictable, boring
Planes: Fire and Rescue opens with a dedication to the hero firefighters of the world. It's an admirable notion, and it makes sense, given that this is a film about planes that fight fires.
But here it might be a little out of place, as Planes: Fire and Rescue has a few things on its mind besides supporting the men and women who routinely throw themselves into burning buildings.
Like money. Lots and lots of money – into the 11-figures-and-counting range. In case you weren't aware, 2006's Cars was the biggest moneymaker Disney had in decades – not because of how much green the film printed at the box office, but because a combination of toys, games and snack foods stamped with the Cars seal of approval routinely pulls in tens of billions of dollars per year. > Read more.

Helgi Nati had one chance to make a splash for Myrtle Beach.
Consider the opportunity seized.
One season after Nati was a seldom-used reserve for a Seahawks team loaded on the front end, Nati did more than simply increase his playing time. The Toast of the Coast Boys Soccer Player of the Year scored 20 goals in 20 games and raked in a handful of postseason awards.
It was a far cry from the two-goal season the forward had as a junior.
"I wish I could say 'yes,' " coach Jason Himelsbach said when asked if he projected Nati as the team's top scorer in 2014. "I saw him being a very solid player for us. As a coach, even if you've done it a while, you do all the prep. You think you always know how things are going to turn out. There are surprises that have to play out. I think Helgi is a perfect example."
Nati's team lead in goals was accompanied by seven assists. It helped Myrtle Beach to a top-five state ranking for much of the year, a 19-4 overall record and an undefeated run through Region VII-AAA. The Seahawks advanced to the third round of the Class AAA state playoffs.
Given all that, Nati's point production made him a shoo-in for several honors. He was named a first-team All-Region VII-AAA selection. Less than two weeks after that, he was announced as one of 18 players in Class AAA across South Carolina (and three locally) to the All-State team.
Basically, it was everything Nati's previous season was not.
"Just sitting on the bench and being a reserve, it made me doubt myself a little," he said. "When he put me out there, I knew I could be a good player for him.
"I got teased. People would ask 'Oh, are you going to start this season?' When I started scoring goals, it was gratification."
Nati flirted briefly with the idea of pursuing college playing opportunities. In the end, his acceptance in the honors college at South Carolina won out. He plans to study International Business, drawing on the experience he gained as a member of Myrtle Beach's DECA club, a marketing, management and entrepreneur organization. It was there he was honored for state and regional awards that rivaled some of his soccer exploits.
"I never considered myself a top-class athlete," Nati said. "Wining these awards made me feel good about myself. I could excel in the athletic field and the academic field."
He'll walk away from the latter having accomplished what seemed implausible just a year ago.
"You get two, three, maybe four years from a kid," Himmelsbach said. "Your goal is that, if they're serious, they're starting. In a perfect world, by the end of a senior year, every kid is a starter. But that doesn't always happen."
For Nati, it did.
And he made it count.

In response to:
Bingo. When is the last time a Republican suddenly "discovered" a box of filled out ballots in the trunk of the car? Or the last time a Republican group was convicted of voter fraud for registering multiple voters at different precincts, or dead people, or felons? Yet we are haters simply because we want one live person to exercise their right to vote-and only once. What a sad state of affairs.
In the eyes of the Obama administration, most Democratic lawmakers and left-leaning editorial pages across the country, voter fraud is a problem that doesn't exist. Allegations of fraud, they say, are little more than pretexts conjured up by Republicans to justify voter ID laws designed to suppress Democratic turnout.
That argument becomes much harder to make after reading a discussion of the 2008 Minnesota Senate race in "Who's Counting?", a new book by conservative journalist John Fund and former Bush Justice Department official Hans von Spakovsky. Although the authors cover the whole range of voter fraud issues, their chapter on Minnesota...

After months of hearings and examining evidence, the Enfield Planning and Zoning Commission voted down the application for a text change to regulations allowing a Highway Services Zone [HSZ]. The controversial application was made by Love's Travel Stops in an effort to bring a truck stop to the town.
With an August 5, 2011 deadline looming for the decision, the commission moved and approved 19 separate changes to the application before voting by a 5-2 margin to deny the application. The amendments amounted to a "death by a thousand cuts" for the proposed Highway Services Zone, as none of the dozen or so properties identified as potential sites under the applicant's language would qualify for the zone with the amendments.
The most difficult of the regulations for properties to meet was the increase in distance from residential properties from 400 feet to 1000 feet as well as the proposed distances from existing gas pumps.
Director of Planning Jose Giner said, "Just as an observation, and it's not an editorial comment, if you do approve the application with the amendments as presented, all those properties on Exhibit 12, I don't think any of them would qualify."
He further said that he believed it would be a mistake to approve a new regulation that did not have any applicable properties, and suggested if a zone of a similar type were desired by the commission, they should write up a proposal and go through the hearing process.
The two dissenting commissioners, Peter Falk and Charles Ladd, noted they believed the zone was a good idea in principle. Ladd added that he would rather have a zone in place on the town's terms, rather than be subject to a State imposed highway stop.
"I am a little nervous about not having [an HSZ] because the State could come in and put whatever they want," commissioner Ladd said, "they have tried twice already.
Prior public hearings on the proposed text change drew significant crowds with most of the people speaking against the new zone. Residents cited numerous environmental, quality of life, and neighborhood issues as the source of opposition the the application. Last evening's meeting was not as well attended, but those in the audience were pleased at the commission's decision.
In other business, the commission approved the application of the Town of Enfield for a reconfiguration of the parking lot, addition of a storage building, and siting of a press box at the Enfield High School athletic facilities.
The application of Joseph Lanzieri was also approved for a wholesale fish distribution business located at 463 Taylor Rd over the objections of neighbors concerned about possible malodorous conditions.

Chris Christie
In a gubernatorial election year in a Blue State, the GOP governor received a prime chance to put last year's embrace of national Republicans behind him (again). Christie earned big headlines as he raged against U.S. House Speaker John Boehner's decision to put the kibosh on a Sandy relief vote earlier this week. But the funding is still only coming in drubs and drabs, as the House passed just $9 billion of what Tri-state representatives thought would be $60.4 billion.
Frank Pallone
The 6th District Congressman was first out of the gate criticizing the Republican decision not to hold a vote on Hurricane Sandy funding, aided by the argument of already having vanquished the Tea Party wing of the GOP (twice).
Frank LoBiondo
Recognizing the need for outrage, the 2nd District Republican Congressman got into a scrap with Boehner on his way to getting a commitment for Hurricane Sandy funding.
Peter Barnes III
The 18th District Assemblyman will have the support of the main power players as he pursues a run for the senate seat currently occupied by gubernatorial candidate Barbara Buono.
Troy Stevenson
The new CEO of Garden State Equality will succeed Steven Goldstein, who is en route to Rutgers University.
Mark Matzen
Newark Mayor Cory Booker's political consultant will continue in that capacity as the mayor explores a likely 2014 U.S. Senate bid.
The NJ Democratic Party
The "Anybody but Barbara" Campaign continues into the New Year, as party bigwigs led by Senate President Steve Sweeney (D-3) scour the landscape for an alternative to declared gubernatorial candidate state Sen. Barbara Buono (D-18) and elongate the story lines of would -be party prospects whom many believe will simply delay the process, bottle campaign cash, and ultimately decide not to run. On one level, Buono gains by being the only serious Democrat in the gubernatorial contest. But as long as the party continues to push the line that it needs another candidate and Senate President Steve Sweeney (D-3), U.S. Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-9) and former Gov. Dick Codey dangle their names, the Buono candidacy risks developing a temporary aura. What emerged this week after a conversation among county party chairs with State Party Chairman John Wisniewski was a clearer sense of regional division. Some southern Democrats believe Sweeney would help them down-ballot. Northern Party chairs feel confident with either Pascrell or Codey. But Buono has not convinced the majority of party leaders that her candidacy "clears the field," as many believed would have been the case had Newark Mayor Cory Booker run for governor.

"Christie's method for coping with scandal has been more complicated. In January, the seemingly-local issue of lane closings on the George Washington Bridge, which created a massive traffic jam in the Hudson River town of Fort Lee, became one of national interest when it was revealed that one of Christie's closest staffers had ordered them—for what looked like political retribution against a Democratic mayor. The scandal was quickly dubbed 'Bridgegate,' and unfortunately for Christie, it played into his reputation as a bully. Christie's response was to act unlike himself: humble." - Olivia Nuzzi- The Daily Beast

100 Greatest Phillies: 56 – Andy Seminick
Posted by Tim Malcolm, Fri, January 30, 2009 08:50 PM | Comments: 3
100 Greatest Phillies, Posts
Andy Seminick
1943-1950, 1955-1957
Career w/Phillies: .243 AVG / 112 HR / 411 RBI / 20 SB
A 22-year-old Andy Seminick joined a 1943 Phillies/Blue Jays team that won 64 games, finishing seventh of eight in the National League. Seven years later, he was the leader of the Whiz Kids, the team that took the National League in surprise fashion before losing to the Yankees in the World Series. Before that, he was a solid if unspectacular offensive player, and a pretty good defensive backstop. In 1949 he won an All-Star berth and accomplished a rare feat, hitting two home runs in an inning. He hit three in the game. But 1950 was his big year, swatting 24 homers and hitting a career-high .288. He returned to the Phillies in a trade in 1955, before being released in 1956. The Phils signed him for the final month of 1957, retiring at season's end. Seminick died in 2004, the final living everyday player of the Whiz Kids. First one in, last one out.
Comment: One of the great longtime Phillies whose reputation came more for his leadership than stick. In his prime he was a good hitter, but not for too long. What remains is his loyalty to the Phils (many years as a coach) and passion for the game.

whitey ashburn used to write a coloum for the bulliton, and he wrote a few colums about seminick, about how tough he was, once going base to base he took out 3 n y giants. i really admire catchers. sounds like he should have been the 1950 mvp.

my father grew up with Andy, whose nickname was 'Inky' to his Cannonsburg/Washington Pa friends. Had the pleasure of meeting him while he visited Coach Roberts (at USF) back in 1984.
I am told as good as a catcher he was, he was a really funny man, to boot.
Love seeing Andy here, and so is my father (who is a Pirate fan)

Ancient fans like myself will never forget Andy's toughness. Late in the 1950 season he took out nearly the whole Giants infield in an ongoing brawl started by Eddie Stanky. Before Andy was thru, Stanky, Bill Rigney and Hank Thompson were all in the DL. He also scored a one punch KO a couple of years earlier on the Dodgers Gene Hermanski. As Whitey Ashburn said, "…you really didn't want to mess with Andy Seminick…".

The Impact of the 1972 Social Security Benefit Increase on Household Consumption
AbstractThis paper examines the consumption response to the 1972 Social Security benefit increase. Nominal benefits were increased by 20 percent while annual cost of living adjustments (COLAs) were contemporaneously implemented and scheduled to begin in less than three years. Taken in isolation, this benefit increase could be viewed as a large and permanent increase in real Social Security benefits. However, the prevailing high rates of inflation that were the impetus for the COLA legislation may have caused households to view the permanent real benefit increase to be substantially less than 20 percent. Using data from the 1972-73 Survey of Consumer Expenditures, the results provide a mixed picture of the consumption impact of the benefit increase. Strictly nondurable consumption increases significantly at the time of the benefit increase. However, this increase does not persist. Furthermore, the likelihood of making any purchases from an array of durable good categories does not change throughout this period.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Bound in chains for a TV escape
Internationally renowned escape artist Dean Gunnarson jetted from Winnipeg to New York City on Thursday to do an escape on Anderson Live. The "live" show on Ripley's Believe It or Not oddities pre-tapes today. This show with Anderson Cooper really looks after its guests. They picked up the 49-year-old Canadian daredevil at the airport and chauffeured him to the Wellington Hotel and to the studio this morning for his makeup call at 10 a.m. "I'm on with Norm, the bicycle-riding dog," he laughs. "And I heard they were looking for a fill-in for the lady with the longest toenails, who had a family emergency.
"I'm going to do an escape locked up in a police straitjacket. They'll bind me up with chains and padlocks to see if I can get out, and how fast. If I finally manage to escape, Ripley's has a special honour for me." Gunnarson has appeared in a half-dozen Ripley books now, including the time he was buried in a cement tomb. Of the new Ripley's book about to come out, he says: "I am chained spread-eagled to a station wagon. They run me through a car wash with all the brushes and hot wax and I have to escape while all these brushes are nibbling at my skin." Gunnarson dangled above the Winnipeg Free Press Building parking lot in a straitjacket escape bid on Oct 31, 1982, when he was only 18 years old. "I'd been doing tricks for eight years already. My mom got me my first book when I was 10." The Ripley's show on Anderson Live airs in a few weeks.

PSST: At a private party in a south-end restaurant, a soiree called Stay Out of the Doghouse was quietly held Wednesday night. Husbands and boyfriends gathered to buy secret gifts for their wives and sweethearts from different vendors. As the grand finale to the evening of food, bubbly and gift-buying, burlesque dancer Miss Angela La Muse was lowered from the ceiling on a giant boardroom table attached to a hydraulic system. "I tested it out with a little rehearsal," says La Muse. "It was some razzle-dazzle at the end of the night -- some ooh la la!" She came down hidden inside a clamshell formed by giant ostrich-feather fans. "As I'm slowly coming, they see the fans pulsing and then I reveal myself." Said an onlooker: "She looked like an angel descending from the sky."

TOM MILROY IS BACK: Consummate gentleman and morning radio host Tom Milroy, who got nudged out of his gig as morning co-host at 99.9 Bob last year, is popping up again as weekend morning host on CJOB, 6 a.m. to 9 a .m. It's a solo gig -- talk radio with guests and interviews, plus news, weather and sports. A few weeks ago, he went for coffee with CJOB's brand director, Scott Pettigrew. "I told him if he had anything part time coming up, I'd be interested. Two weeks later he called me!" Milroy says he'll be on the air flying solo perhaps as early as next weekend.
Exactly one year ago, yours truly met with Milroy when he'd just left the station and he looked me in the eye and said quietly, "I have no plan." Uh-oh. In place of a plan, he and wife Maureen did some travelling before he had a heart attack in August. The 60-year-old is fully recovered now with stents -- no need for a bypass. There's no more smoking, no junk food, and he's regularly working out at Reh-Fit -- and the man has never looked healthier.

VALENTINE'S COMEDY NIGHT: Not everybody's happy at the thought of Valentine's Day, never mind getting through the annual night of romance -- especially if they don't have a sweetheart. The antidote? Across the hall from romantic couples noshing and noodling at Brooklyn's fancy Italian eatery, Jared Rayter has organized a multiple-comic show at Boa nightclub. That's Thursday, Feb. 14 at 10 p.m. Popular Streetz 104.7 FM radio host Paul Rabliauskas is headlining. The lineup of top Winnipeg comics includes Jordan Wellwood, Ryan Ash, Mike Green, Ben Walker, Matt Nightingale and Dan Huen (my crazy kid). Rayter will join them to joke about love, the world outside and the world inside their unusual heads. Boa nightclub has tickets for sale now: $10 in advance or $15 at the door. Doors open at 9 p.m., and the show is being filmed by Shaw TV. The Jets' Evander Kane has already purchased tickets from Rayter.

The weekend seemed to fly by. I was SOOO angry yesterday when I realized that my son missed play practice on Saturday. Sure, he's old enough to remember these things...but as the mom...it's kind of my job to keep the family calendar. We are usually pretty good about remember things! I just linked his calendar to my phone, so hopefully we won't miss a commitment again!

Grand Canyon Suite, Themes from
By Ferde Grofe
Grand Canyon Suite, Themes from (Featuring: Sunrise / On the Trail / Sunset / Cloudburst). Composed by Ferde Grofe (1882-1972). Arranged by Douglas E. Wagner. Concert Band. Concert Band; Masterworks; Part(s); Score; SmartMusic. Pop Young Band. Form: Transcription. 20th Century; Masterwork Arrangement. Grade 2. 242 pages. Published by Alfred Music (AP.38345).
It is safe to say that Grofé's iconic work from the early 1930s remains his most recognized and programmed creation to this day. A master of instrumental color and texture, themes from four of the five program-based movements are included in this arrangement for younger players, including "Sunrise," "On the Trail," "Sunset," and "Cloudburst." Audiences are nonetheless assured to experience the freshness, the richness, and the excitement of the original score. (4:30) This title is available in SmartMusic.
