  10. Riccardo Muti takes on German, Austrian masters, con brio

In this second of three season-ending weeks, for example, the music director has gone from directing a Verdi chorus at a riverfront park in Chinatown, to fielding questions from subscribers at a public Q&amp;A. On Saturday he is to deliver the commencement address for the DePaul University School of Music which is awarding him an honorary doctorate.

  11. How can AC affect mpg?

    <strong>Q: My friend and I have this bet regarding the impact of air conditioner use on fuel consumption.

Is the fuel consumption increase with AC use dependent on the speed of the fan or not? </strong><em>&mdash; R.P., Crystal Lake, Ill.</em>
