		<description><![CDATA[ On Saturday night, theatergoers were escorted from their cars to the Kennedy Center under the umbrella of Michael Amerson, a doorman whose high spirits seemed impervious to the weather. “I love this,” he said as the rain started to pick up. The final performance of “Uncle Vanya,” the Sydney Theatre Company’s critically acclaimed production of Chekhov’s grim classic, took place at 7:30. Though the threat of Hurricane Irene loomed all day, the performance went on as scheduled before some very damp patrons, some from far away.

		<description><![CDATA[ PITTSBURGH — Flash floods submerged more than a dozen vehicles in Pittsburgh, killing three people, leaving another missing and presumed dead, and forcing others to swim to safety or scramble onto the roofs of their cars. The flooding occurred after a pair of storms pounded the city on Friday, overwhelming the drainage system and causing manhole covers to pop off the road, officials said. Water rose up to 9 feet in some places along Washington Boulevard, a main road that parallels the Allegheny River in the city’s Highland Park section.

		<description><![CDATA[ BIR AYAD, Libya — The long columns of cars arrived at the rebel-controlled checkpoint here, 60 miles from the Libyan capital Tripoli, with children flashing victory signs and fathers happily honking the horns of their cars. The families, hundreds of them, had slipped out of the capital in the early morning of Friday, using back alleys and country roads in order to avoid checkpoints controlled by forces loyal to Moammar Gaddafi, the country’s embattled leader. They are part of a growing exodus from the Libyan capital, which follows significant advances by the ragtag rebel army toward the capital. Their victories have led many to expect Gaddafi’s era to be finished in in the coming days or weeks, but many inhabitants of Tripoli say they can’t wait that long.

		<description><![CDATA[ The world's 16 most famous art cars come together in one exhibit Honoring the 35th anniversary of the project, an exhibit at the BMW Museum in Munich brings together the complete set of 17 BMW Art Cars (with the exception of Olafur Eliasson's ice sculpture) for the first time. Seeing them in one place makes for a study of the car as canvas, highlighting both similarities in the artist's approaches (the majority are splashed with bright colors) as well as each distinct style. While assembling all the cars is an impressive single-subject show, and many of the big names&#8212;Calder, Hockney, Lichtenstein&#8212;are familiar, there's plenty of opportunity for discovery with some of the lesser-known works, like the shimmering surface of Matazo Kayama's 1990 535i that welcomes visitors to the exhibit. On a recent visit there as a guest of BMW, I also picked up a few insights that speak to the rich history of the brand initiative. As a whole, the show speaks to the savvy pairing of culture and sport, supporting the automaker's values of performance and the joy of driving as they introduce fine art to race car driving. A classic Warhol story, that he took all of 23 minutes to paint his 1979 M1 because he said the design of the car is so great, underlines his accompanying statement that he "tried to portray a sense of speed. When a car is going really fast all the lines and colours become a blur." The short film on the making of this car and its race is worth checking out on the BMW Art Car microsite . Similarly, Kayama said of his car (pictured above), "it was the attractive basic shape of the car which made my work at all possible in the first place." The show runs through 30 September 2011 at the BMW Museum in Munich. See more art cars&#8212;from Rauschenberg to Stella to Holzer and more&#8212;in the gallery below .

		<description><![CDATA[ Volkswagen offers the first-ever supercharged hybrid SUV in a luxurious limited edition Taking advantage of a sunny day in New York City, we recently put Volkswagen's new 2011 Supercharged Hybrid Touareg to the test on a trip to Brooklyn for some of the best pizza in town. VW describes this limited edition Touareg as "a rare beast" that can be likened to the white buffalo&#8212;strong, silent, and few in numbers. With panoramic glass consuming almost the entire roof we got full views of skyscrapers, bridges and beautiful open sky. When combined with the rest of the luxurious interior, riding around in this "beast" is definitely like no other journey. Its highly responsive navigation system&#8212;one of our favorites&#8212;features a large full-color touchscreen that allows the driver to choose between 2D or 3D navigation. Once you've programmed where to go, the jamming sound system and iPod-friendly stereo let passengers sit back and enjoy the smooth ride. While admittedly lower in mpg when compared to a compact car, the Supercharged Hybrid offers 20-24 mpg, similar to that of the TDi model. Its start-stop system saves gas when idle, and regenerative breaks recoup kinetic energy that help charge the battery. While not boasting as much torque as its diesel counterpart, the tuned suspension makes for a fun, sporty ride, and its powerful engine really helps when you've got a car full of gear. We're proud that Volkswagon chose to sponsor our Cool Hunting iPad app ( iTunes link ) as a way to launch this new car. Download the free app and check out some exclusive Rare Beast content. Packed with every imaginable amenity, the Supercharged Hybrid Touareg is ideal for family vacations and urban escapes alike. To get your hands on one, contact a VW dealer near you. <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style " addthis:url='http://heave-ho.org/2011/03/11/touareg-rare-beast/' addthis:title='Touareg Rare Beast ' ><a href="//addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&#38;username=xa-4d2b47597ad291fb" class="addthis_button_compact">Share</a><span class="addthis_separator">&#124;</span><a class="addthis_button_preferred_1"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_2"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_3"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_4"></a></div>]]></description>
