Two marimba players are among the 2009 Pittsburgh Concert Society Young Artists scholarship winners, named after auditions last Saturday. Each student receives a $500 Perlow scholarship and will be presented in concert March 1 or March 15. In addition to marimba players William DeLelles (Steubenville High School) and Jeremy Malvin (CAPA), cellist Klara Pinkerton (homeschooled, Mt. Lebanon), flutist Leigh Poulton (Duquesne University), pianist Aleksandr Voinov (Ingomar Middle School) and violinists Inory Sakai (the Ellis School), Diana Shi (Morgantown High School) and Hope Vannucci (CAPA) also won the award.

'Zack and Miri' DVD due

More porn! Or maybe just more Zack and Miri.

A two-disc edition of "Zack and Miri Make a Porno," filmed in Pittsburgh a year ago, will be released Feb. 3. A Blu-ray version will come out that day, too.

Bonus features will include 43 deleted scenes, bloopers, outtakes and an hour-long making-of documentary. A "Seth vs. Justin: Battle for Improvisational Supremacy" will look at the war of witty words between actors Seth Rogen and Justin Long.

The Kevin Smith movie stars Rogen and Elizabeth Banks as best friends who decide to make an adult film to pay the bills and find they may have feelings for each other.
