DIED. MICHELINE CHAREST, 51, a founder with her husband of the Canadian children's television group Cinar, which produced the hit show Arthur; of complications from plastic surgery; in Montreal. Cinar was a leading supplier of children's shows like Zoboomafoo, Wimzie's House and Caillou as well as Arthur, featuring the world's most famous aardvark; in 1997 the Hollywood Reporter ranked Charest as the 19th most powerful woman in show business, ahead of Madonna.

The film is good-naturedly skeptical and occasionally satiric about Knievel's exploits-in marked and welcome relief to the gushiness...
Fishermen twelve miles off the Louisiana mainland in Caillou Bay are inclined to swear when they come in sight of what looks like a gigantic harbor buoy sticking up between two scows. A structure they think improper to the high seas, this is no buoy but one of several oil derricks erected in the bay by Texas Co. Called "deep-sea drilling," Texaco's operations are in water no deeper than 25 ft., but geophysical crews mapping off-shore contours often have to take dynamite soundings. The fishermen claim that any fish not killed or scared clean to Cuba...
