Brenda Strong Talks 'Desperate Housewives' Ending & 'Dallas' Getting a New Beginning
Strong recently spoke to AOL TV about how she'll manage to do both shows and shared her thoughts about winning over the die-hard "Pam and Bobby" fans.
Read on to get the actress' thoughts on one beloved show ending and another one being revived.
'Desperate' creator Marc Cherry has said he wants to revisit Mary Alice in the last season of 'DH.' What's your availability given that you're also doing the new 'Dallas' series?
'Desperate Housewives' is in first position. Luckily, I have two executive producers who are very smart and generous men and I trust that they'll work it out. They're both going to help me make this work with both shows.
What can you say about Ann Ewing?
She's smart. She's grounded. She's like the new Miss Ellie. She sees a lot but doesn't say anything until she absolutely needs to and then when she does, she has words of wisdom and people listen. She's a tough cookie.
'Dallas' producers cast a smart, savvy and beautiful actress to play Bobby's wife. They so easily could have gotten it wrong by hiring a 24-year-old model who can't act. Do you know what I mean?
Yes. I know exactly what you mean. Here's the thing that I'll tell you about 'Dallas': the script is spectacular. TNT would not have done this if the script were not good. We're going into it with every intention of it having the integrity of the old and the innovation of the new. We're not going in with our tongues in our cheeks, winking it at the audience. We're playing it straight in a way that will allow the audience to feel comfortable, and at the same time it's going to be high stakes. I feel very blessed because Patrick Duffy is one of the most talented and sweetest men on the planet. We really like each other. I think the audience is going to feel that authentic connection. They'll feel like, "Good, they belong together."
Yet, the love of Bobby's life is Pam.
I think the fans are going to be loyal absolutely to Pam and Bobby. They were the Romeo and Juliet of their time. I'm not in any way, shape or form trying to step into her shoes. I respect the role that she had. Victoria Principal did an amazing job. She's beloved by the fans. I certainly hope to win them over. It's my intention that they'll feel comfortable with us as a couple.
You're not entirely new to 'Dallas.' You had a guest spot on the original series as a quick love interest to Cliff Barnes.
Yes, how strange is that? You're in this business long enough and you have a past. I don't think that's going to have any bearing or impact on [my new role]. I was in 'Starship Troopers' and died and came back in 'Starship Troopers 2' as a totally different character. Audiences are very forgiving.
Are you shooting on location in Dallas?
Yes. On location. In Dallas. On Southfork. When I was in the van and we drove up to the ranch I got goosebumps, tears burst into my eyes and I heard the theme song. I wasn't even a huge fan of 'Dallas' at the time, but the show is an enigma. "Who shot J.R.?" shut the country down. People stayed home to find out who the shooter was. People didn't go to the theaters that night. There weren't DVRs back then. It's part of the world fabric. I was in Europe this summer and people asked what I was doing. I said 'Dallas' and people were shocked and happy that it's coming back.
Did they recreate the interiors?
The Dallas film commission has really rallied on our behalf. They put out an APB for 'Dallas' sets. Everyone overwhelmed their database. They got a positive response.
'Desperate Housewives' Season 8 Preview
First look at the final season premiere of 'Desperate Housewives.'
How do you feel about 'DH' wrapping up?
It's bittersweet and very poignant. I'm incredibly grateful. My life has changed dramatically because of the show. I'll always have a debt of gratitude to Marc Cherry for giving me such a beautiful role and providing so many seasons for me. It's sad, but I'm also filled with such gratitude. The last episode will be a tough one. I'm grateful ABC is giving us this chance to enjoy every single day. This will allow us to have the closure.
A voiceover from Mary Alice would be a serendipitous way to end the show ...
[Smiling] One would hope.

Margarine vs. Butter - The Debate is Over
When it comes to the margarine versus butter debate, margarine is definitely the winner. Why? Research continues to clearly show that soft margarines are the best choice compared to butter of when it comes to heart health.
Eleven recent studies that directly evaluated the health effects of margarine versus butter have all confirmed that soft margarine is healthier. These 11 studies, involving more than 70,000 individuals, clearly demonstrate the cholesterol-lowering benefits of margarine products compared to butter. Many population studies that looked at the diets of thousands of individuals also demonstrate that margarine consumption resulted in better outcomes than butter consumption. To improve the quality of their health, people should limit saturated fat and cholesterol by selecting foods such as margarine/spreads over butter.
Margarine products today contain 40 percent less total fat, 37 percent less saturated fat and 59 percent less trans fat than a decade ago. These changes have occurred over the years in response to consumer and health professional demand that products be reduced in total fat, saturated fat, trans fat and calories. The softer, reduced-fat or liquid margarines contain lower amounts of saturated and the spray and liquid margarines are trans fat-free (as are some soft margarines on the market today). And, the predominant ingredient in margarine is natural vegetable oil from soybeans.
Margarine is clearly the heart-healthy choice recommended by health professionals and leading health organizations. The American Heart Association (AHA), the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and NHLBI's National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) have recently confirmed their recommendation to choose soft (tub or liquid) margarine products instead of butter. Health professionals recommend choosing margarine instead of butter as one of the simplest ways people can improve their diets to become more heart-healthy.

The snapshot package helps the owner of a LaTeX document obtain a list of the external dependencies of the document in a form that can be embedded at the top of the document. In other words, it provides a snapshot of the current processing context of the document, insofar as it can be determined from inside LaTeX.
If a document contains such a dependency list, then it becomes possible to arrange that the document be processed always with the same versions of everything, in order to ensure the same output. This could be useful for someone wanting to keep a LaTeX document on hand and consistently reproduce an identical DVI file from it, on the fly; or for someone wanting to shield a document during the final stages of its production cycle from unexpected side effects of routine upgrades to the TeX system.
Normal usage involves the following steps:
\RequirePackage{snapshot} \RequireVersions{ *{application}{TeX} {1990/03/25 3.x} *{format} {LaTeX2e} {1999/06/01 v2.e} *{package}{snapshot} {1999/11/03 v1.02} *{class} {article} {1999/01/07 v1.4a} *{file} {size10.clo} {1999/01/07 v1.4a} *{package}{graphicx} {1999/02/16 v1.0f} *{package}{keyval} {1999/03/16 v1.13} *{package}{graphics} {1999/02/16 v1.0l} *{package}{trig} {1999/03/16 v1.09} *{file} {graphics.cfg}{0000/00/00 v0.0} *{file} {dvips.def} {1999/02/16 v3.0i} } \documentclass{article} \usepackage[dvips]{graphicx} ...
Making the necessary arrangements to ensure that future LaTeX runs of the document actually call in the specified versions is left to be handled separately, since the best way to go about this is highly system-dependent. The snapshot package only provides a way to generate the dependency list.
However, the \RequireVersions statement does record the given information in a form that can be accessed from within LaTeX. (It is for this purpose that it is not simply a comment.) In principle a package could be set up so that a later version would automatically attempt to emulate an earlier version if an earlier version was specified---much as LaTeX currently switches to 2.09 compatibility mode if it sees \documentstyle instead of \documentclass.
The package is included on the current TeX Live CD; it can also be downloaded from CTAN (the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network) or from the AMS:

Antica Cabernet Sauvignon 2009
Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, California
Winemaker's Notes
The Antica Napa Valley 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon offers delicious purity of fruit with enticing violet and fresh berry scents of blueberry, blackberry and red currant. The wine is full-bodied, yet graceful and supple, ending with a long, pure, and persistent finish.
Antica is an Antinori Family estate in Napa Valley. The family's winemaking heritage dates back 26 generations and more than 600 years in Italy. 'Antica' represents Antinori California, and fulfills the family's longstanding desire to produce wines with personality and style in Napa Valley. The estate is located in a high elevation valley in the eastern mountains of Napa Valley. It is the Antinori Family's belief that the high elevations, hilly terrain, and rocky soils of the estate are ideal for winegrowing.
About the Vineyard:
Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were harvested from nine individual vineyard blocks, divided between five distinct clones. The estate's Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards are planted up to an elevation of 1,800 feet allowing excellent air movement in the well-drained, volcanic soils.
About the 2009 Vintage:
Temperatures throughout the winter months were mild with below normal rainfall, marking a third consecutive year of drought conditions for Napa Valley. A dry spring with slightly higher temperatures than normal provided excellent weather conditions for fl owering and uniform fruit set. Dry conditions prevailed throughout the summer and early fall. Warm daytime temperatures along with cool night time temperatures into the autumn months assured healthy and completely ripe Cabernet Sauvignon grapes rich in winemaking potential.
Critical Acclaim
The Wine Advocate - "The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon comes across as a bit more reticent and inward next to the superb 2008, but it, too, is a gorgeous wine. Dark red fruit, licorice, smoke and tar are some of the nuances that flow from this layered, gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2009 was bottled just two months ago. It will almost certainly be even better in a few years' time. A mid-weight, gracious wine, the 2009 should drink well to age 20 or so. In 2009 the blend includes 1.5% Petit Verdot. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2029."
Wine & Spirits - "The wine's Atlas Peak tannins are softer and gentler than you might expect, its structure benefiting from the acidity of the fruit. That comes across in green herb scents refreshing the plush, rip plum flavors. It's generous and open, easy to enjoy with roast lamb."
Antica Winery
ANTICA is a symbol for Antinori California and expresses in Italian our family's passion for winemaking passed along 26 generations.
Napa Valley has a special place in my heart beginning with my first visit in 1966, having the free spirit coming from a new frontier, a wonderful history, and the potential to produce world-class wines.
Our wine estate is located on a high plain in the eastern mountains of the celebrated Napa Valley. Its hilly terrain, rocky soils, high elevations and beautiful landscape create above all an estate ideal for winegrowing.

About Napa ValleyView a map of Napa Valley wineries
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard lands were scooped up and vines were planted throughout the county. A number of wineries emerged, from large conglomerates to small boutiques to cult classics. Cabernet Sauvignon is definitely the grape of choice here, with many winemakers also focusing on Bordeaux Blends. Whites are usually Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
Notable FactsWithin the Napa Valley lie smaller sub-AVAs that lend even more character specifics to the wines. Furthest south is Carneros, followed by Yountville, Oakville & Rutherford. Above those two is St.-Helena and finally, just grated an AVA, Calistoga. These areas are situated on the valley floor and are known for creating rich, smooth Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay. There are a few mountain regions as well, nestled on the slopes overlooking the valley AVAs. Those include Howell Mountain, Stags Leap and Mount Veeder. Wines from the mountain regions are often more structured and firm, benefiting from more time in the bottle to evolve and soften.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.

How to Paint Animals?
Make Your Wildlife Paintings
Look More Professional
Discover the secrets to painting animal fur and
make all your animal subjects seem lifelike!
|The Technical Basics of Painting Fur
If you wonder about how to paint animals, you must also wonder about painting animal fur. If painting animals, painting lions and realistic wildlife are subjects you've always wanted to master, then learning to paint convincing fur details is the key to your success. There are specific painting techniques you can learn that will make painting lions and cougars, and other animal fur much easier than it seems. The secret is in knowing what to look for and knowing how to describe the animals you see.
From time to time we've all struggled with painting animal fur textures and patterns that aren't quite believable. It can be overwhelming and very frustrating when we don't understand how to approach the subject. In order to get authentic results we must first learn how to break it down into bite size pieces. As a maturing artist, I too struggled with painting animal fur until I had a major breakthrough about the concepts of visual texture and dimension. This immediately changed the way I approached the subject and since then, I've never looked back!
Let me share with you the learning outcomes for this wildlife art class...First, you'll learn how to see and read fur textures and colors. Then as you paint the four animal studies; the rabbit, cougar, two zebras and a large male lion. Each study will help you focus on the different qualities and characteristics of their fur. For example, we'll explore the type, length, texture, and color patterns for each animal. As you paint along with my in-depth and detailed video demonstrations, you'll also discover a new level of appreciation for the uniqueness of each animal's fur details. 'Seeing' will become easier and easier as we move forward.
Makes Learning Easy - Course Materials Are Broken Into Bite Size Pieces
One of the animal studies in this course is the large male lion. If you have ever tried painting lions, you already know how much detail there is to this animal's face, mane and expression. Painting lions in a realistic manner takes practise and a planned approach. I will show you how to take this comples study and break it down into step by step layers that are easier to manage.
"I have learned so much from this class – more than I thought possible." - Linda Etten
Student Testimonial - "I have learned so much from this class – more than I thought possible. It was daunting in the beginning and it definitely took time and patience. Neadeen gives super instructions, both with her videos and step-by-step instructions. I learned so much about working with a limited palette and her tips on painting short fur were invaluable. Before taking this class I attempted painting animals but they always turned out looking flat and childlike. The great thing is I could paint on my schedule – some days only an hour or so. This, I found out, actually helped me see mistakes early on because it gave me a chance to look at my painting from a distance. In my hometown there aren't many options for someone who wants to learn to improve their painting skills. Those that I've tried haven't come close to what I have learned through Art Apprentice and their fantastic instructors. I can't say enough good things about this course. If you want to learn to paint fur, you have to try this class."
Painting Lions that look realistic!
Watch and learn from the best seat in the house
One of the greatest benefits to taking an online class like this, is having the ability to hit the rewind button. If you need to re-watch a particular painting technique more than once, you can do so with a click. This also gives you lots of time to practice and digest the information at your own pace. Watching the videos from the best seat in the house gives you an over the shoulder view of the whole painting process from start to finish. Below is a short video snippet of the final painting details from the male lion. You can see every stroke at very close range.

As always the AAO have delivered above and beyond. I have had to wait a long time before I could buy it and it was well worth the wait.
This is a comprehensive course that shows you all the aspects you really need to paint realistic fur. Neadeen explains things beautifully and breaks things down in steps and explains the elements needed so that you can then paint your own animals.

Neadeen you explain all the steps clearly and your painting instruction is very excellent. I am looking forward to painting zebras and learning how to paint cougars. The subjects are very realistic! I am very happy camper!

President Obama's U.N. Address
10:21 AM, Sep 25, 2012 • By DANIEL HALPER
Here's the text of President Obama's United Nations address, as prepared for delivery:
Mr. President, Mr. Secretary-General, fellow delegates, ladies and gentleman: I would like to begin today by telling you about an American named Chris Stevens.
Chris was born in a town called Grass Valley, California, the son of a lawyer and a musician. As a young man, Chris joined the Peace Corps, and taught English in Morocco. He came to love and respect the people of North Africa and the Middle East, and he would carry that commitment throughout his life. As a diplomat, he worked from Egypt to Syria; from Saudi Arabia to Libya. He was known for walking the streets of the cities where he worked – tasting the local food, meeting as many people as he could, speaking Arabic and listening with a broad smile.
Chris went to Benghazi in the early days of the Libyan revolution, arriving on a cargo ship. As America's representative, he helped the Libyan people as they coped with violent conflict, cared for the wounded, and crafted a vision for a future in which the rights of all Libyans would be respected. After the revolution, he supported the birth of a new democracy, as Libyans held elections, built new institutions, and began to move forward after decades of dictatorship.
Chris Stevens loved his work. He took pride in the country he served, and saw dignity in the people he met. Two weeks ago, he travelled to Benghazi to review plans to establish a new cultural center and modernize a hospital. That's when America's compound came under attack. Along with three of his colleagues, Chris was killed in the city he helped to save. He was 52 years old.
I tell you this story because Chris Stevens embodied the best of America. Like his fellow Foreign Service officers, he built bridges across oceans and cultures, and was deeply invested in the international cooperation that the United Nations represents. He acted with humility, but stood up for a set of principles – a belief that individuals should be free to determine their own destiny, and live with liberty, dignity, justice, and opportunity.
The attacks on our civilians in Benghazi were attacks on America. We are grateful for the assistance we received from the Libyan government and the Libyan people. And there should be no doubt that we will be relentless in tracking down the killers and bringing them to justice. I also appreciate that in recent days, the leaders of other countries in the region – including Egypt, Tunisia, and Yemen – have taken steps to secure our diplomatic facilities, and called for calm. So have religious authorities around the globe.
But the attacks of the last two weeks are not simply an assault on America. They are also an assault on the very ideals upon which the United Nations was founded – the notion that people can resolve their differences peacefully; that diplomacy can take the place of war; and that in an interdependent world, all of us have a stake in working towards greater opportunity and security for our citizens.
If we are serious about upholding these ideals, it will not be enough to put more guards in front of an Embassy; or to put out statements of regret, and wait for the outrage to pass. If we are serious about those ideals, we must speak honestly about the deeper causes of this crisis. Because we face a choice between the forces that would drive us apart, and the hopes we hold in common.
Today, we must affirm that our future will be determined by people like Chris Stevens, and not by his killers. Today, we must declare that this violence and intolerance has no place among our United Nations.
It has been less than two years since a vendor in Tunisia set himself on fire to protest the oppressive corruption in his country, and sparked what became known as the Arab Spring. Since then, the world has been captivated by the transformation that has taken place, and the United States has supported the forces of change.
We were inspired by the Tunisian protests that toppled a dictator, because we recognized our own beliefs in the aspirations of men and women who took to the streets.
We insisted on change in Egypt, because our support for democracy put us on the side of the people.
We supported a transition of leadership in Yemen, because the interests of the people were not being served by a corrupt status quo.

Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes could well be made in the U.S.A., if a new job ad from Kojima Productions is to be believed. Konami is currently advertising for all manner of roles to join up with a North American division of Hideo Kojima's company, based in Los Angeles.
The Gamasutra job ads are inviting artists, programmers and animators, tasked with duties surrounding "the core foundation of a 3D action game".
There is, of course, nothing that says this game necessarily is Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes - Kojima Productions is also working on at least one other project, the un-announced Project Ogre, as well as continuing development on the in-house FOX Engine.
[…] get a good look at Akaneiro, Game Connect Asia Pacific is announced for 2012, Kojima Productions expands into the US, The Secret World delays its upcoming content patch, the remnants of 38 Studios […]
I like video games and music and cups of tea and noodles and beagles and colour-cycling LEDs.

Gloucestershire County Council Elections 2013: South Cerney (Cotswold) candidate profiles
Posted: April 23, 2013|
Here are the candidates fighting to represent the South Cerney division in the Cotswolds.
Mike Evemy, Liberal Democrat
Mike has lived in Cerney Wick for 10 years. He knows the division well, having stood in Water Park ward together with Esmond Jenkins and Juliet Layton in 2011, missing out by just 12 votes. He's a very experienced councillor who knows how to get things done for residents. He represented a ward in Swindon between 1992 and 2006, leading the Lib Dem councillors there for 10 years.
Commenting on his selection, Mike said 'I love living here and would be honoured if my fellow residents choose me to represent them on the County Council. I'd bring my council experience, particularly my knowledge and expertise from nine years' involvement in education, to serve residents here and across the County. I'll also continue working with Cllr Esmond Jenkins to expose why our councillors and officers at Shire Hall agreed to the transfer of Keynes Country Park to a private developer.'
Nick Gibbs, Green Party
I have lived in the South Cerney Division most of my life. I run a small business from home, my children are educated at the local school, and I am Chairman of our Village Meeting. I'm sad when I see so much litter on the verges and so much traffic on the roads, and watch the hearts of our towns suffer, and our village pubs decline. I want better use of our limited resources, less waste, and more focus on the local economy and local enterprises, while defending services for those most in need. I'd like to see more local food in our shops, and redundant public buildings and land being used wisely to support local communities. After all, a fairer community is a more sustainable community.
Guy Parfitt, Ukip
I work within the hotel and hospitality trade, and am standing because I believe the British people have the right to decide their own destiny, and not have it dictated by elites and business interests in this country who clearly don't worry enough about our jobs and borders. I am standing in South Cerney to give people the chance to register their vote for Ukip, and by doing so, send a message to the establishment that we're not going to be further manipulated. Many of us are concerned about this country's loss of sovereignty, and the dilution of our democracy, by having our laws decided by those who are following the blueprint of the European Project, and deconstruction of the nation state. They have no right, and no mandate to do so.
If elected I will inject some energy into the role, set-up a flood defence team, endeavour to look after our roads and the appearance of the ward. I would also endeavour to help create jobs for people by encouraging firms to invest in our area. I believe local referendums could be set up to settle issues of contention. Lastly, one of my great-grandfathers lived in South Cerney, and I have an interest in its past as well as its future.
Shaun Parsons, Conservative
Shaun Parsons has lived within 6 miles of Cirencester since 1947, having been brought up in Ampney Crucis. He is married, with 3 grown up children. He qualified as a Chartered Accountant and has worked in industry, financial services, retail banking and tourism.
A county councillor since 1997, he is a lead member of the Budget and Performance Overview Committee, a trustee of the £1.3b county Pension Fund and chairman of the recently reformed Cotswolds Road Safety Committee. He is also Chairman of the Trustees of the National Star College for students with complex disabilities at Ullenwood and a Governor of Rendcomb College.
Shaun served as an officer with the Royal Wessex Yeomanry for many years in Cheltenham, Gloucester and Cirencester.
Shaun works hard for residents in the south Cotswolds. He has taken up many issues on their behalf and is always available to assist them.

Kim Kardashian is pregnant with Kanye West's baby -- but in a new interview, the reality star reveals her own fertility issues made the baby news a big surprise.
"Khloe has been very open about her fertility issues and I think I was always really kind of quiet about mine," Kim said this morning on "Today."
"I have similar issues and so it was a pleasant surprise when so many doctors were telling me one thing and then the opposite happens," she added.
Kim and sister Kourtney Kardashian were on the show promoting the upcoming season of "Kourtney and Kim Take Miami."
Check out the video above to see a clip from the new season -- and find out what she had to say about possibly tying the knot with Kanye once she finally gets a divorce from Kris Humphries.

Last spring, the Harvard women's volleyball team set out on a quest for a new coach. The spikers advertised, made countless phone calls and contacted almost everyone connected with the Eastern volleyball establishment.
Everyone, that is, except Seth Farber.
Just when the squad was running out of numbers to call, Farber--a member of the Harvard men's team--stepped forward and asked to be considered for the position.
The only problem was that Farber was coming back for his senior year in 1985.
After consulting with the NCAA, which approved of the undergraduate coaching arrangement so long as Farber was not paid, the Crimson hired the Cabot House student.
"He's doing it out of the goodness of his heart and for the good of the women's volleyball program," Assistant Director of Athletics John Wentzell says.
Although Farber only plans to coach for one year, he will concentrate on foundations for the future like recruiting and administrative organization.
The spikers, who finished sixth in the Ivies last season, aren't sure whether Farber can produce a winning season--but they know he can change the atmosphere.
"I think he will get the group in a happier mode," says junior Co-Captain Caroline Young. "He will make it fun first. It lost all of its fun last year."
A junior Phi Beta Kappa selection, Farber certainly has his work cut out for him: the Crimson lost five players from last year's unit.
Besides Young and Co-Captain Lisa Eskow, Farber will rely on juniors Jodi Cassell, Pascale Jean-Louis and Stephanie Salinas, and sophomores Kelly Abraham and Suzie Tapson.
In fact, Tapson may be the crucial returnee on a squad short on hitters.
As usual, the Crimson will work toward the Ivy Tournament--to be held this year at Brown on November 15-17. While upsetting powerhouses Princeton, Penn and Cornell seems out of the question, Harvard hopes to shoot for a fourth-place showing.
The biggest stumbling block may be that the team's home--the Indoor Athletic Building--will not be ready for the beginning of the season. As a result, the spikers will have to contend with makeshift courts in Briggs Athletic Center.

Cascade Flyers Part 1
Very excitied about the latest edition to disc golf education in schools. This specific school is integral because of its location, it happens to sit right next to Lakewood disc golf course. Some of the holes are actually on neighboring Evergreen High School property. Surprisingly when I called the PE teacher last year to inquire about starting up a disc golf program for the students this fall, no one has ever approached the school to educate the students about disc golf, but everyone seems to know about the course. When I presented it to the students in the gym to promote sign ups for a 10 week fall after school program starting on Tuesday, a large percent of the students knew about disc golf,some even have "claimed" to played next door. Reassuring to know that some students know the basics. It makes it easier to jump right into playing rounds with them, and honing in thier skills. Even for those who have never heard of disc golf with 10 weeks, thats plenty of time to teach them basic skills needed to start bangin some chains.

text: Close Tweet0 Share0 Comment0 Share0 Share0 Stumble It0 Print0 More The Strike Zone Angels beyond the outfield: J.B. Shuck goes over the wall to rob Jose Bautista by Joe Lemire Twitter Email Posted: Sat Aug. 3, 2013 [mlbvideo id="29371341" width="600" height="336" /]We've seen what Mike Trout and Peter Bourjos can do in the Angels' outfield -- just ask J.J. Hardy -- but apparently robbing home runs is a skill for which techniques are imparted in a team manual, or so it would seem based on the work of leftfielder J.B. Shuck on Friday night.In the fourth inning, Toronto's Jose Bautista hit a fly to left that seemed destined to be a two-run homer until Shuck, who was waiting for the ball on the warning track, perfectly timed his leap to steal the ball from a fan and a dinger from Bautista as he crashed into the first row. (The fan didn't seem to mind, given his aid in helping Shuck up off the ground and his hand-raising celebration.)The advanced defensive metrics allege that Shuck, a 26-year-old who debuted for the Astros in 2011, is a below-average leftfielder, but he at least proved that he has a knack for the sensational.

I'm impressed with some and not so impressed with others.
I still have NO clue why you would teach your horse to rear or buck under saddle. That was not a capriole, that was a buck, and the girl does not sit well on her horse.
What I am impressed with is the vaulting - I think I went a little green with envy there!
Some of those tricks are really cool, but some can be dangerous. The rear did not look controlled, and more like the pony was peeved than anything else.

Using Best Practices to Comply With NERC Cyber Security Compliance
Watch Now
Date Added: Jul 2009
Format: Webcast
Electric power companies face increasing regulatory requirements, including NERC CIP, Sarbanes Oxley and others. To maintain these regulations can be costly and time-consuming. Moreover, 2009 is a critical year for energy and utility companies as The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) regulations require that utilities be "compliant" by July 1, 2009 and "Auditably compliant" by July 1, 2010. The pressure is on for utilities to implement effective cyber-security solutions or potentially face fines and other penalties depending on their level of non-compliance. The attendees of this webcast will learn effective practices for automated compliance in electric power generation and transmission companies. And get the opportunity to hear first-hand how a PJM Interconnection implemented their NERC CIP compliance program, and what business results they got.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A plane carrying Louisville's basketball team to a game in Florida returned to the airport after the pilots received a fire warning that turned out to be false.
A spokeswoman for the airline operating the Cardinals' flight said the plane was at about 10,000 feet and less than 10 minutes into its flight Tuesday when a warning message in the cockpit indicated a fire on board.
ExpressJet's Kristy Nicholas said there was no fire, comparing the warning to a "check engine" light going on in a car.
Louisville spokesman Kenny Klein said no one was hurt and the coaches and players, including coach Rick Pitino, left the 41-passenger plane normally and didn't have to evacuate on slides.
"We had no idea what was going on," Klein said. "When we landed, we saw the fire equipment and figured something was up."
He said after the plane finished taxiing, the captain explained what happened.
"It's a routine response to a non-routine event," Nicholas said. "It's not unheard of that the light comes on, but it's obviously not something that happens every day."
Louisville airport spokeswoman Trish Burke said airport rescue and fire crews responded to the plane after being notified of the emergency landing by air traffic control around 4:15 p.m..
The second flight arrived in Tampa shortly after 11 p.m., Klein said. Louisville plays South Florida on Wednesday.

On Saturday, I hosted another flicker-doodles dinner party. We had lots of good food, and lots of laughs. The menu consisted of deep fried mac and cheese, potato soup, braised short ribs, lettuce salad with homemade ranch dressing, homemade bread, and cheesecake for dessert. Everyone went home with very full bellies!
This little guy kept eyeballing the food and wondering why none of it was coming his way!
I'll bring you all the new recipes this week. Starting with these little balls of deliciousness!
To be honest, I wasn't really sure how these would turn out. I was afraid they would fall apart and make a huge mess in my deep fryer, but they turned out fantastic. You've got to give them a try! Make up a pan of mac and cheese the night before and let it sit in the fridge overnight.
Cut your mac and cheese into roughly 1 inch square pieces.
Place some flour in one bowl, some beaten eggs in another bowl, and panko bread crumbs in the last bowl. I chose to use Italian seasoned bread crumbs, but you can use unseasoned crumbs and season them however you like. Dip each piece into the flour first, then the egg wash, and finally into the bread crumbs.
Set these aside until they're all coated.
Stick a few pieces into the fryer. If you don't have a deep fryer, don't worry, just heat some oil in a deep stockpot to 350. (I would normally just do that, but I was worried about oil splattering and making a huge mess right before the party. The deep fryer keeps it more contained.)
Fry them until they're golden brown.
See the two lighter ones, they were the first ones I did and they weren't quite done. It takes a few minutes to get them good and cooked.
Yum! These turned out so good.
I was really impressed with how easy to make these turned out to be. You've got to try them for you next party! People will be amazed with your skills!

PYRAMAZE Announces New Singer
Source: [URL="http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=100721"]Blabbermouth[/URL]
[I]Danish metallers PYRAMAZE have issued the following update:
"After auditioning some really good singers during the last couple of months, we have finally found a new band brother none other than singer extraordinaire [B]Urban Breed[/B] (ex-TAD MOROSE) has joined our ranks, and we are all very excited. Urban is well known for his powerful voice, stage presence and great diversity. We welcome Urban into the band, and we hope that our fantastic fans will approve of this choice too. Trust us when we say there's no one better to fill out the big shoes left by his predecessors. To those of you who do not know Urban yet, I would like to encourage you to check out the MP3s in the news section of [URL="http://www.pyramaze.com/"]Pyramaze.com[/URL] this is just a little taste of what Urban sounds like. Please note the songs are NOT new PYRAMAZE songs, but material from Urban's past recordings."[/I]
It should have been Ripper.
[QUOTE=SomewhereInTime72;187992]It should have been Ripper.[/QUOTE]
Excellent news. Urban is a fantastic singer definitely worthy of this gig. I had the good luck of meeting him when he was with Tad Morose and they opened for Edguy in NYC in 2004.

Review: Great ensemble finds the laughs in "Rumors" at Florida Rep
FORT MYERS - KU68Avffg8w
Florida Repertory Theatre spreads laughs - and devilishly funny "Rumors" - during their production of the Neil Simon farce. Door slams, back spasms, crystals down the toilet, exploding manhole covers and gunshots get played for laughs by a well-oiled ensemble on a set begging for a magazine cover.
In "Rumors," four wealthy couples gather in suburban New York at an anniversary dinner party. As the guest arrive, the servants and hostess are missing, the host has shot himself in the ear and - gasp! - there's no snacks, canapes or ice. Because the host is the deputy mayor of New York, they decide to do everything they can not to alert the police or the media - and the lies pile higher than the national debt of Greece.
"Rumors" is Simon's only true farce, although it is a bit more literate and literary than the ten thousand slamming doors, pranks and pratfall-filled antics of something like "Noises Off" or "Lend Me a Tenor." While there is some running, jumping and heaving about (a dance scene, set to "La Bamba" brought screams of laughter), the real comedy is in the rapid pitter-patter dialogue - these are gossipy upper-class society types after all. Sometimes they scream too.
"Rumors" is a true ensemble piece - and director Robert Cacioppo gets the very best from his professional cast. What the show does exceptionally well is highlight the sight gags (Viki Boyle's see-it-to-believe-it dress), sheer lunacy (Brad DePlanche with a towel wrapped around his head) and outright silliness (the marvelous David S. Howard answering a telephone - in the midst of bedlam - with a calm, composed, "Helloooooo?").
One of the night best moments comes when tiny firebrand Michelle Damato (her Chris Gorman is nearly driven mad by the night's events) stumbles drunk out of a bathroom head-first into the towering, elegant politician's wife character played by Jackie Schram. The actresses play the moment perfectly.
In a large cast, the long-limbed Schram sparks. Clad in a gorgeous ruby dress, she flirts, fumes and flaunts about the stage as if she owns it, particularly in scenes with fun-to-watch Peter Thomasson (Glenn Cooper). He plays his oily politician to the hilt - and their scenes as a feuding couple are some of the most fun to watch.
DePlanche - during a spell when his character is deafened by a gunshot - has enormous fun with various oinks, squeals and screams. Watch for his facial expressions. David Breitbarth spits out the enormous monologue at the end of the play - which (allegedly) explains everything - with flair.
I want to live in Jim Hunter's sumptuous Rockland County mansion. The set fits a soaring two-story house onto the Florida Rep stage with such style that most of the audience probably won't realize the front door is as tall as the staircase. Notice the details - like the vertical pictures, paintings, wallpaper and columns that give an illusion of height. Roberta Malcolm's smashing costumes flirt with jewel tones in ruby, garnet and deep sapphire - with the obligatory trim penguin suits for the boys.
If the play has a fault, it is that "Rumors" is possibly never energetic enough. The acting is marvelous - the woman next to me on Sunday laughed throughout the show and told her companion "Oh, I needed that" - but it is still the Neil Simon version of a farce, which means more talking (or frantic screaming) and less door-slamming. Despite the hilarity, the first act can feel a little long - and the truly gut-busting moments of comedy are farther apart than some audiences might wish.
"Rumors" brings a literate script together with a professional cast at the top of their game. There's a party, bullets, crystals, duck fat and everything in between. Admire Schram as she stalks the stage, look for how well the ensemble meshes in an infinite number of combinations and marvel at the gorgeous set.

Standing on the fresh pavement of the Ky. 313 extension awaiting a dedication ceremony Wednesday, the new road directed my mind to a distant past.
As the summer sun beat down, the smell of hot asphalt became obvious. That's the odor of opportunity and it triggered memories.
Just about a mile from the dedication site is the plot of ground where I grew up. On many similar summer days a lifetime ago, the same scent of blacktop filled the air.

Since former President George W. Bush amped up standardized testing throughout the nation in 2002 with the No Child Left Behind Act, critics say results have been negative.
The bottom line is that there is no clear correlation between standardized testing and the knowledge and skills kids will need to prosper in the 21st century world of work. It seems we're more interested in creating a homogenized workforce than a nation of individuals who have learned what their talent is and how to bring it to work with them.
He was always getting up a game of some kind, usually sandlot football.
Mark had a knack for gathering my friends and me, most of us 10 years his younger, for a game of football in the fall or baseball in the spring. And he was my own personal trainer, throwing me thousands of football passes or hitting me countless groundballs, trying to make me better.
But there was more to it than the game. Something much larger than that. The sport was only an avenue enabling Mark to do something far more important than catching or throwing a ball.
"Our flag says, 'I am what you make me, nothing more. I swing before your eyes as a bright gleam of color, a symbol of yourself." – Franklin K. Lang, secretary of the interior speaking at a Flag Day Ceremony in 1914.
On June 14, we will mark a holiday that is sometimes overlooked: Flag Day. It was on that date in 1777 the Second Continental Congress adopted the flag of the United States of America.
My family recently celebrated a milestone shared by families throughout Hardin County and across Kentucky — my son graduated from high school. We enjoyed a formal dinner and dance, the graduation ceremony and a blow-out of a party with family and friends.
As I told those gathered to rejoice on Caleb's behalf, our celebration was not merely backward-looking as we reflect on 12 years of education and investment. It also was forward-looking as we count the blessings of opportunity that await him in the months and years to come.
By now you've heard the news: We're growing, at least physically. The average American male is 17 pounds heavier and the average female 19 pounds heavier than in the late 1970s. And the percentage of overweight children and adolescents in the U.S. has nearly tripled in that same period of time.
One of the most overlooked and effective ways to fight our growing weight problem is to grow a vegetable garden.
If Washington's environmental zealots have their way, individual Kentuckians will find out via soaring electric bills and unemployment rates: What happens in D.C. absolutely does not stay in D.C.
Dear Dave: We watched as you took your diploma in one hand and shook President Roush's hand with the other. That was a great moment for all of us, for it signified the closing of one chapter in your life and the opening of another.
Now that you have your diploma, remember that it has meaning beyond the listing of your name, the date you graduated and the school, Centre College, which granted the degree you earned.
Subtracting one lane from downtown's main thoroughfare didn't seem to add up.
Transportation engineers said it would work. More than once, studies commissioned to address downtown redevelopment or traffic flow in Elizabethtown promoted the less-is-more idea.
After a month of experience, the Dixie Diet is working.
Like any change, it required adjustments. But from personal experience and observation, traffic appears to be moving smoothly and motorists have adapted.

Americans paying even cursory attention to what's happening on the other side of the Atlantic are about to get a stark reminder of an economic principle that too often gets pushed to the side – especially during troubling times: No government has ever taxed, spent or borrowed its way to prosperity.

It's official! Shutt launch new summer range
So good we launched it twice, you've had the Shutt summer teaser now it's officially here
Shutt Velo Rapide have now released their new summer range of British-made Sportwool clothing, and mighty stylish clobber it is too. Here are the highlights…
The limited edition Summer Signature jersey (£79) comes with a high merino content and looks stunning in white with a multi-stripe banner across the chest and back. Don't say 'test card' – it's classy and that's all there is to it. As usual with Shutt's jerseys, that multi-stripe design features on a small embroidered panel on the middle pocket too – neat touch. And like all the jerseys in the summer range, it comes with a newly designed zipped pocket for stashing your valuables.
Shutt have a lightweight version of their Club jersey too (£75), the Summer Club coming with a full-length front zip for maximum upper-body cooling. It's available in white with either red or light blue collar, cuffs and trim to suit sir or madam's colouring. It's a pretty understated look but very, very tasteful – about as far away from brash pro-team logos and graphics as it's possible to get. Sophisticated – that's the word.
The Summer Sportive LE (£75) is made from a summer-weight eyelet Sportwool (hence the LE) that lets plenty of cool air through, while the Summer Continental (£75) features panels of lightweight Sportwool and summer-weight eyelet fabric.
Peter Bragg, marketing director of the Yorkshire-based brand, said, "The summer range is the result of a year of customer feedback and design suggestions, plus months of testing in all weathers. We have listened to our customers and brought them the very best in handmade British cycle wear in a very stylish and affordable package."
Shutt have also produced a limited run of 200 LaGazetta LE jerseys as a special commission for Simon Lamb of La Gazzetta Della Bici blog fame (lagazzettadellabici.blogspot.com). They cost just £50 a throw (yep!) and they're available at the Shutt Velo Rapide site – but don't expect them to hang around for long.
For the entire Shutt Velo Rapide range, including ordering, go to www.shuttvr.com.

Submission Recently Discovered Habitable World May Not Exist->

But yesterday at an exoplanet meeting in Turin, Italy, Switzerland-based astronomers announced that they could find no trace of the prized planet in their observations of the same planetary system.

The Bluff refers to a long, rounded ridge of sand dunes on the southern side of Durban in KwaZulu Natal. The Zulus named it isiBubulungu, a reference to its shape. The Bluff comprises about 7 of Durbans suburbs, including Brighton beach, Durbans friendly suburb. Bluff accommodation is convenient as it lies between the citys central business district and the King Shaka International Airport and the industrial suburbs which lie further south.
The Bluff is a great location for holiday-makers for a number of reasons. Firstly it is home to two of Durbans iconic beaches Ansteys and Brighton Beach. Both are patrolled by lifeguards and protected by shark nets. They are also both family orientated with fresh water paddling pools, and tidal pools to keep smaller kids and the less confident adults occupied.
The sea is warm thanks to the Indian Ocean with the warm Mozambican current and both beaches have swimming areas and great surf spots. Brighton Beach is particularly renowned amongst surfers for the Cave Rock surf spot.
The Bluff, as you might imagine, is a prominent geographical feature in Durban and there is speculation that it once may have been an important navigational indicator to ships heading into Durban. Today the Bluff makes up the southern quayside of the Durban port, protecting it from the open waters of the Indian Ocean.
Apart from lazing around on the beaches in Durbans warm, subtropical temperatures, Bluff accommodation is also close to the Bluff National Park Golf Club, a challenging course which also appeals to keen birders. Large part of the Bluff are protected wetlands and play host to a variety of waders and other water birds. Other natural stars are the whales which can be seen in the winter months, and the famous dolphins which frequent the shoreline throughout the year.
Other potential activities include taking a tour of the old whaling station, investigating the city centre and heart of Durban culture or visiting the Bluff shopping mall.

Golf club design has come a long way from the days of a master craftsman sitting at a work bench and hand benching a club head. Sure, there is still some hand work done here and there, but it is extremely rare for a modern club to be designed without the help of a Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) tool. While it is sexy to say that a part was hand crafted by a master craftsman, the truth of the matter is that club design has progressed light-years due to the use of CAD. There is one problem however with CAD tools in that they are strictly two dimensional. In other words, while you can create a 3D part in CAD, it can only be viewed in two dimensions on a computer screen, making it impossible to visualize how the complex, three dimensional curvatures and surfaces of a club head will look in real life. The quality of the complex curvatures and surfaces of a club head are extremely vital to the overall look and shape of a finished product. A good shape will inspire confidence and allows the golfer to achieve maximum performance from their club.
So how then do club designers ensure quality complex curvatures and surfaces in the head designs? Continue Reading

Of course, Destination Imagination is just one arm of a multi-faceted umbrella dubbed The Gateway Program by the Barnstable School District. Gateway is the parent program to such offerings as Destination Imagination, Future Problem Solvers and the Mock Trial.
Linda Puleo, director of the Gateway Program, said its goal is to meet the unmet academic needs of high-ability students in the classroom. "Gateway" stands for Gifted and Talented Education With Able Youth.
So what's so challenging about riding around in triangles? The challenge is called "DIzzy Derby," and it was the problem of choice for the Cotuit-Marstons Mills team.
The seven-page challenge requires participants to design and construct a vehicle that will race to complete the greatest number of laps on the triangular track in the allotted eight minutes. To rack up the points, the students should plan on completing various detours and side trips where they can earn extra lap points. All the while, as some of the team members are racing their vehicle, the remaining students need to perform an eight-minute skit that will coincide with the racing and explain their response to the challenge.
"In the skit, we're Pine Martens, [which were once found] in Wisconsin, [but became] extinct in 1925," said Afton Andreadis - one of the seven members of the Cotuit-Marstons Mills team, which placed first in the elementary division at the regional competitions.
In their creative skit comprised of singing, dancing and a little bit of time travel, the students explain that the pine martens are brought out of extinction by a mad scientist.
As part of the challenge, the students were required to do extensive research to find a solution. The Cotuit-Marstons Mills team began with the pine martens of Wisconsin and then brought in some other favorite Wisconsin symbols like cheese and lawn mower races.
"In their research they learned there were lawn mower races in Wisconsin so they incorporated the lawn mower into their skit," said Amy Mesirow, one of the coaches for the fourth grade team.
Although the teams have "coaches," the team itself has to do all the work and come up with all the ideas. The coaches are not allowed to have any input whatsoever. Joe Leary, the teams' second coach, said they could only guide the students through questions. "They had to design everything themselves," he said. "... They come up with some phenomenal ideas."
Puleo said the best thing about Destination Imagination is to see the students, boys and girls, interact" "It's just so powerful to see them. They're friends; they're problem-solving; they're having a blast and what a great way to be themselves and to just excel."
The Cotuit-Marstons Mills Elementary School team includes Afton Andreadis, Thomas Cunningham, Aiyanna Davis, Molly Johnson, Robin Mesirow, Brandon Miller, and Shannon Murphy. Teams from the Barnstable middle and high schools will also be competing in the State Competition. Winners of the State Competition will go on to compete in the Destination Imagination International Competition in June.
While Destination Imagination is a large part of the Gateway Program and probably one of the more recognized activities, it's just a small part of the bigger picture. "Future Problem Solving is a program that meets the needs of a student who is high ability across the board," Puleo said. "They have to be exceptional readers and writers, but they also, probably, have an interest in a broad range of things. If you're talking about futuristic things, you're going to be impacted by technology, scienific endeavors and those kinds of things." The Gateway Program is not just about the students either. "The mission of Gateway is to worry about those kids that need an additional challenge," said Puleo. "... And we can do that by not just the classes that we teach, but also by providing resources to teachers, consulting with teachers, and helping them with differentiating instructions to meet the needs of these students."
Puleo said she is grateful the town has been so supportive of the Gateway program for the past 28 years. "Massachusetts is one of eight states that does not fund gifted and talented education," she said. "So everything that Barnstable does is through our local budget with the exception of grants, which we manage to get from time to time."
Without the support of local officials and volunteers, Puleo said, it's unlikely the Gateway program would have been able to survive and even surpass itself. She said it is one of the longest running gifted and talented student programs in the state.
Unfortunately, not everyone sees the need for such a program. "The state department (of education) has indicated that they are now more concerned about this field because of the days of MCAS, or what we like to call high-stakes assessment," Puleo noted, but she worries that the No Child Left Behind Act could potentially restrain some students from achieving their potential. "These students are, first of all, the students that probably will do well, but still can do better and for whom if we just worry about No Child Left Behind and that kind of thing, these students will be left in the dust," she said.
It's often thought that bright and gifted children will be all right on their own, but Puleo said that's not always the case: "I think the hardest thing for people to understand is how while the focus of MCAS is important - to bring up the level of all students - in fact, we can't afford to ignore our top students because they need and deserve to be challenged and advanced as well."

Ismaily accept US$ 750,000 offer from Zamalek to transfer Ghanaian striker John Antwi
Ghanaian striker John Antwi will play for Zamalek next season after his club Ismaily accepted a US$ 750,000 offer from the White Knights.
Ismaily president Mohamed Abou El-Seoud announced on Monday both clubs have reached a deal.
"We reached an agreement with Zamalek concerning Antwi's transfer," El-Seoud said on a TV programme.
"The player expressed his desire to leave the club and we decided to sell him to Zamalek."
The 21-year-old leads the scorers chart in the Egyptian Premier League with 11 goals and regarded as one of the best foreigners in the league.
Antwi becomes Zamalek's eighth new-signing after the return of midfielder Ibrahim Salah, Ittihad El-Shorta's trio Khaled Qamar, Ahmed Dwidar and Maarouf Youssef, Egypt's U-23 duo Mohamed Abdel-Razek and Ahmed Samir and Ismaily's defender Saleh Moussa.

Kazakh Opposition Leader Charged With Coup Incitement, AP Says
June 27 (Bloomberg) -- Kazakhstan charged Vladimir Kozlov, a leader of the Alga opposition party, with incitement to overthrow the central Asian nation's government, AP reported, citing party representative Mikhail Sizov.
Kozlov has been in jail since January and is accused of fomenting violence in December among striking oil workers in western Kazakhstan, where at least 14 people died, AP said. If found guilty of this and another charge of inciting social unrest, Kozlov may face more than 10 years in prison, AP said, citing Alga.

Enbridge Inc. is "in full swing" on construction of its 326-mile-long Alberta Clipper pipeline in the U.S. and will not be deterred by a lawsuit filed Sept. 3 by two environmental groups and the Indigenous Environmental Network, says Denise Hamsher, Enbridge spokeswoman. The Sierra Club and Minnesota Center for Environmental Advocacy joined IEN in suing the U.S. State Dept. on the grounds that the permit was issued without impact assessments required by the National Environmental Policy Act and in violation of the Constitution's assignment of environmental responsibility to Congress. Enbridge Energy Partners LP, Houston, began construction on the 36-in. pipeline last month immediately after receiving a presidential permit, allowing it to cross the border from Canada.

Louis Langrée's program this week with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra "was my first program by accident," decided months before he was named music director, he said on Friday.
"But it was a wonderful accident."
Listeners at Friday morning's concert in Music Hall heard the rewarding result of that accident when Langrée led an inspired reading of César Franck's Symphony in D Minor. The work anchored a program that included Messiaen's brief "The Forgotten Offerings" and Saint-Saëns' showstopping Piano Concerto No. 2, with French pianist Cédric Tiberghien as soloist. ...
