...some of the greenest programming in Denver will come not from the convention itself, but from a long-running Colorado radio show called Etown, whose hosts, Nick Forster, a bluegrass musician, and his wife Helen, a singer and actress, mix music with environmental talk. Launched in 1991, Etown started small, as an independent program broadcast from the university town of Boulder, Colo. Today, the show has over one million listeners and is carried internationally by National Public Radio. As a sign of its influence, on Aug. 26 - the second night of the convention - Etown will hold a special concert...
...title characters are two American women and a one very romantic city. Vicky (English stage actress Rebecca Hall, who was the beguiling pawn of two magicians in The Prestige) wrote her master's in Catalan Identity. Before marrying businessman Doug (Chris Messina), she has come to Barcelona to spend July and August with a welcoming relative, Judy (Patricia Clarkson), and Judy's husband Mark (Kevin Dunn).

...towards Petrella's case. In June, Sarkozy's Italian-born wife Carla Bruni told the daily Libération that Petrella "is ill, and should be cared for the way any human should. And prison isn't the ideal place for that". The following month, Bruni's older sister, actress Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, visited Petrella in prison and expressed deep concern for "someone who is seriously ill". Tedeschi - who in 1995 played the harrowing role of a jailed Red Brigades terrorist - likened the embrace of extremist ideology to the descent into drug addiction, suggesting redemption from both is possible...
...wants. He'll make it." At the end he sails into New York Harbor and sees the Statue of Liberty as Glenn Miller's "Moonlight Serenade" plays on the sound track. He glimpses some Hassidic Jews on the deck below him, and the Statue morphs into a heavy-set actress he knew back home. She lets out a ribald laugh - just the reaction Chahine so often wanted from his audiences when they were faced with the historical and emotional collisions of life in the modern world...
