TEHRAN, Iran — Iran will sur­pass the ura­nium-stock­pile limit set by its nu­clear deal in the next 10 days, an of­fi­cial said Mon­day, rais­ing pres­sure on Euro­pe­ans try­ing to save the ac­cord a year af­ter the U.S. with­drawal lit the fuse for the height­ened ten­sions now be­tween Te­hran and Wash­ing­ton.

Hours later, the two coun­tries were seen as ap­proach­ing a flash­point when the Pen­ta­gon an­nounced it was send­ing about 1,000 ad­di­tional Amer­i­can troops to the Mid­dle East to bol­ster se­cu­rity in the re­gion in the face of what U.S. of­fi­cials said is a grow­ing threat from Iran.

The ear­lier an­nounce­ment by Iran’s nu­clear agency marked yet an­other dead­line set by Te­hran. Pres­i­dent Has­san Rou­hani al­ready has warned Europe that a new deal needs to be in place by July 7 or the Islamic Re­pub­lic would in­crease its en­rich­ment of ura­nium.

Atomic en­ergy spokes­man Be­hrouz Kamal­vandi sug­gested that Iran’s en­rich­ment could reach up to 20%, just a step away from weap­ons-grade lev­els.

It ap­pears as if Iran has be­gun its own max­i­mum pres­sure cam­paign on the world af­ter fac­ing one from Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump’s ad­min­is­tra­tion that deeply cut into its sale of crude oil abroad and sent its econ­omy into freef­all. Europe has so far been un­able to of­fer Iran a way around the U.S. sanc­tions.

For now, the res­i­dents of busy Reis Run Road in Ross can only wait and watch as mud keeps slid­ing down and block­ing the street, a sit­u­a­tion that has con­tin­ued amid reg­u­lar rain­falls since May 31.

It’s frus­trat­ing, the res­i­dents say, and even worse for the man whose house has been con­demned be­cause of dam­age from the land­slide. They are not alone.

The pre­cip­i­ta­tion comes on the heels of Penn­syl­va­nia’s wet­test year on record and has led to

floods and slides across the re­gion.

The area is cur­rently deal­ing with 95 land­slides, ac­cord­ing to Cheryl Moon-Sir­ianni, the Penn­syl­va­nia Depart­ment of Trans­por­ta­tion’s Pitts­burgh-area ex­ec­u­tive.

Mid­dle school stu­dents at the En­vi­ron­men­tal Char­ter School will con­tinue to ride to school on yel­low buses next fall rather than take pub­lic tran­sit.

The re­ver­sal of a plan that was an­nounced ear­lier this month came to light dur­ing a well-at­tended pub­lic hear­ing Mon­day in which many par­ents of En­vi­ron­men­tal Char­ter School stu­dents had in­tended to ex­press their dis­sat­is­fac­tion about send­ing their chil­dren to the Gar­field cam­pus on Port Au­thor­ity buses.

Pitts­burgh Pub­lic Schools said a school bus driver short­age had prompted the dis­trict to con­sider us­ing Port Au­thor­ity buses to trans­port the stu­dents.

Glo­ria Van­der­bilt, the in­trepid heir­ess, art­ist and ro­man­tic who be­gan her ex­tra­or­di­nary life as the “poor lit­tle rich girl” of the Great De­pres­sion, sur­vived fam­ily trag­edy and mul­ti­ple mar­riages and reigned dur­ing the 1970s and ‘80s as a de­signer jeans pi­o­neer, died Mon­day at the age of 95.

Ms. Van­der­bilt was the great-great-grand­daugh­ter of fi­nan­cier Cor­ne­lius Van­der­bilt and the mother of CNN news­man Ander­son Cooper, who an­nounced her death via a first-per­son obit­u­ary that aired on the net­work Mon­day morn­ing.

Mr. Cooper said Ms. Van­der­bilt died at home with friends and fam­ily at her side. She had been suf­fer­ing from ad­vanced stom­ach can­cer, he noted.

“Glo­ria Van­der­bilt was an ex­tra­or­di­nary woman, who loved life, and lived it on her own terms,” Mr. Cooper said in a state­ment. “She was a painter, a writer, and de­signer but also a re­mark­able mother, wife, and friend. She was 95 years old, but ask any­one close to her, and they’d tell you, she was the
