Mct’s ‘murder’ Is A Slow Burn Into Suspense

... heading down the Nile River, the first act does its job to introduce a cavalcade of characters. The focus, however, is on newlyweds Kay Ridgeway-Mostyn (Marcy Neely), the richest young woman in England, and her husband, Simon Mostyn (Skye Estes). Kay runs into her uncle, Canon Ambrose Pennefather (Gary Hall), who happened to be on the same trip. They all are ultimately introduced to Dr. Bessner (Nicholas Mc Rae), the snobbishly blue-blooded Helen Ffoliot-Ffoulkes (Amy Abbott Stoesser) and her niece, Christina (Elissa Russell), and the bourgeois William Smith (Ben Spencer). Kay explains to her uncle how her friend - who is Simon’s ex-girlfriend - Jacqueline de Severac (Samatha Spencer), has essentially been stalking them. Other details about the remaining characters contain hints on who the killer will be. Act one was weighted down by the conversations that introduce all of these ...

Where's The Line? Theme Parks Aiming To Eliminate Them

... to improve the experience of biding one's time. Almost two decades ago, those efforts were concentrated on elaborately-designed "pre-ride" lines such Universal's The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man , which goes past an elaborately-detailed "Daily Bugle" newsroom. A few years later came the ride reservations systems of the Fast Pass and Express Pass at Disney and Universal parks, respectively, in which ride-goers are assigned periods of time to show up for rides. But those reservations need to be made ahead of time, for the most part, and visitors can only make them on three rides a day. Universal opens that concept to everybody, not just advanced planners, with its two new attractions, while also offering entertainment during the wait. "Everybody is trying to do this, working not only on the rides but how to get you on the rides," said Dennis Speigel , who heads the theme park consulting firm, ...

Longhorn Steakhouse Takes First Steps In Coming To Midland

... Steakhouse. Members of the Planning and Zoning Commission at Monday’s public hearing unanimously approved a request to change the zoning at Loop 250 and Midkiff Road from Planned District for a Shopping Center to amended planned district at a site just west of Bubba’s 33 on the north side of Midland Park Mall. Longhorn Steakhouse has purchased the property and is looking to begin the building permit process. The zone change now goes to City Council for final consideration. A second public hearing — on a request by Curtis Schmid for a specific use permit without term for a plant nursery at Todd Road south of Marie Drive — drew discussion among commissioners. Schmid explained that the nursery, Superior, has long provided plants to landscapers and developers and was seeking to diversify by opening to individual buyers during a 90-day spring window. “Not much is going on in my niche outside that window,” he said. “The fall window isn’t big enough.”. In the fall, he said he focuses on projects such as providing poinsettias that are sold for fundraisers. “We used to truck plants in ...

Chamber Should Make State Of Education About Schroder

... district’s students moving forward. However, anyone reading this newspaper on a daily basis knows the ins and outs of what has been a productive start of the year. But if State of Education is to be worthwhile for those who want more than the meal, this shouldn’t be a discussion; it should be a monologue. We recommend handing the microphone to interim Superintendent Rod Schroder and letting him be frank about where this district was, where it currently is and where it needs to be. Those who attend State of Education should leave knowing Schroder and the impact he has made on the district. For many of those who attend the State of Education, this will be the one time they have heard, or will hear, him speak. It is Schroder who needs to give his outsider’s perspective. It is a dose of realism that Midlanders - especially those representing the business community - need to hear because we are sure many of you are not paying attention. Last year, the chamber at one ...
