SEATTLE Darren Oliver threw the first pitch in interleague history, way back in 1997, back when the prospect of mingling the two leagues in regular-season play was still exotic and enticing. Oliver pitched for the Texas Rangers then (facing Darryl Hamilton of the San Francisco Giants) and pitches for the Los Angeles Angels now. On Thursday, the eve of the 11th go-round of interleague play, he summed up the general view of ballplayers regarding its ever-declining allure. "I think it's died down," Oliver said.

Two performers are making their theatrical debuts in Center Stage's current production of "An Ideal Husband, and though they don't have any lines, chances are, anyone who sees the show won't forget them.That's because Oliver and Wicket are canines -- a Jack Russell terrier and a Shetland sheep dog -- who alternate in the role of "Dog." Although there is no such role in Oscar Wilde's play, Oliver's owner, Jonna Gane Lazarus explained, "This is really an Irene [Lewis] thing."This isn't the first time Lewis, artistic director of Center Stage and director of "An Ideal Husband," has added dogs to a production.

Maryland's Steve Blake recorded one of the quietest games of his young collegiate career. But more importantly, so did Iowa's Dean Oliver, compliments of Blake.The Terrapins freshman held Oliver scoreless for nearly the first 17 minutes of the game and limited the Hawkeyes' leading scorer to nine points, half his average. Oliver, considered the third-best point guard in the Big Ten, missed eight of 10 shots and finished with his worst scoring output of the season."When you have a good point guard on the other team, it's your job to shut him down," Blake said.

Rarely has suburbia looked as blandly malign as it does in "Arlington Road," Mark Pellington's taut, harrowing and thought-provoking new suspense thriller.As early as the movie's first scene, of a young boy staggering down a well-kept street, the movie's atmosphere and emotional tone are made clear, driven home by images of benign domesticity -- a flag, a bird feeder, clothes flapping on a line -- shown in striking photographic negatives. In this disquieting movie, paranoia and suspicion rule the day, and even something as innocent as a Dalmatian gnawing a bone looks frighteningly ominous.

After days of public displays of profanity and abuse - in Congress, at the U.S. Open tennis championships, during the MTV Video Music Awards - news came Wednesday of another such incident closer to home. Baltimore County police released details of the arrests of two women accused of dispensing an obscenity-laden tirade against a police officer who pulled them over Monday night in Randallstown after noting that a rear light on their car was not working. The driver, Kelli Dorschell Oliver, 40 - whose father, Baltimore County Councilman Kenneth N. Oliver, pleaded guilty in July to two counts of campaign fund violations - was charged with resisting arrest, disorderly conduct and second-degree assault after the police officer reported that she had bitten, scratched and kicked him as he tried to place her in handcuffs.

Sharon K. Brown pointed to a chart with rows of construction-paper people under the title "Favorite summer activities." "Is this a bar graph?" she asked the four children sitting in front of her. "Yeah, but it's people," Veronica Zulauf, 8, said. Indeed, Brown said, the graph had pictures. "So what kind of graph is it?" "It's a pictograph," Kyle Nuckols, 8, said. "Because it has symbols." So began a math lesson in Brown's summer-school class at Baltimore County's Oliver Beach Elementary, where she has taught for more than a decade.

Baltimore County Councilman Kenneth N. Oliver, who already faces charges of violating campaign finance laws, has missed a deadline to file his annual campaign finance report. The second-term Democrat, who represents the Randallstown and Woodlawn areas, has been fined $10 a day since the Jan. 21 filing deadline, a state elections official said. Oliver said yesterday that he attempted to file the annual report electronically several times Monday but did not succeed. "Every time I tried to file, the computer kicked it back," he said.
