As plain folks know, the new master of a golden retriever should pass out the rewards and feed the dog for a few weeks. The President is going to have crummy pockets for a while, and when the White House cook gives Ford his English muffins in the morning, Ford is going...

But the Vienna Philharmonic, for example, tunes to 445 for a brighter sound, while the New York Philharmonic prefers 441.
