Anselmo BNSF crossing under debate
ANSELMO – There is a new grain loading facility under construction near Anselmo, across the Burlington Northern Santa Fe tracks from State Highway 2 to the north. The facility wants to be operational for the 2012 harvest season. Land was acquired, contracts signed, agreements underway. And then things changed. It all started Feb. 15, when a Burlington Northern Santa Fe trail collided with the trailer section of a tractor trailer unit that was crossing the tracks near the entrance to the Anderson facility. There were two trains on the track, both approaching from the west. The truck driver was turning north, across the tracks, on its way to the Anderson construction site. The driver looked west and saw one of the trains, the one closest to the highway. This train was moving at a slow rate of speed. The driver did not see the second train. He did not know it was there until after he had crossed the tracks, but the trailer section had not. The flatbed and the machinery it was carrying were destroyed. Thankfully no one was hurt. This is a concern, said Mike Christen, a spokesperson for BNSF's Operation Lifesaver. "The tracks were laid in 1887. The highway followed in the early 1900s, and the size of the vehicle back then was about the size of a good kitchen table. Once these (the railroad and the highway) are established they aren't easy to change," he said. Christen said that from Anselmo to Ravenna, nearly all of the crossings will not accommodate the long vehicles we use today, the semis and stock trailers behind the pickups. When a truck wants to re-enter the highway there is not enough clearance room between the tracks and the stop sign. "Once the engineer throws the train into an emergency stop, it can take up to 15 seconds to release the air out of the brake system before the brakes start to apply. Using junior high math, when you take 15 seconds at 60 miles per hour, the train will travel at least a quarter of a mile before it stops. At 60 miles per hour, once the engineer sees you on the tracks it is too late." But this is only one side of the story. There are just as many arguments for keeping the crossing open, and Monday's Special Meeting focused on gathering opinions. "The railroad (BNSF) would like to close the crossing, The Andersons would like to keep the crossing open," said Christopher Reed, Project Manger with The Andersons to open the discussion. "We care about your opinion. We want to be good stewards of the community," said Reed. "This is a huge customer service issue." The Andersons facility was designed with the railroad agreeing to the blueprints at the start. The Andersons estimate that 80-90 percent of the grain being delivered to their site will come off Highway 2. Other options are not economically feasible, for neither the Andersons and their producers, nor for Anselmo's greater community. Neither the Anselmo Fire District nor the Merna EMTs want it closed. Mark Christen speaking for the Anselmo Fire Department raised his concerns for response time. "If a train stops in Anselmo it covers both crossings. If your house is on fire, that's pretty much it," he said. Mickey Solomon of the Merna Emergency Rescue Team agreed. "Through the years one-third of our calls are up here. We need to be able to support our patients." Bruce Spanel speaking for the Anselmo Cemetery Board said his organization would like to see it remain open as it is. "The Cemetery Road (an alternate path into The Andersons) is neither thick enough, nor wide enough to support truck traffic." Eugene Curtis, speaking for the Township Board said his organization would also like to see the crossing left open, but ultimately the decision rests with the Custer County Board of Supervisors. When Anselmo Village Board Chair Scott Stupka asked if anyone else would like to speak, Don Cantrell volunteered. If the grain trucks have to go around, that will be seven additional miles per truck, with an estimated 10,000 truck loads, that is an additional 70,000 miles of truck traffic. "That many miles adds up to a lot," he said. As to the safety of the crossing, Cantrell admitted it was scary and that it is an accident waiting to happen. "The crossing needs to be adjusted. It needs to be squared up with the road," he said. Reed agreed. "We were on site with the railroad before we broke ground. They saw the plans. The plans call for gates and lights," Reed added. The state is talking about someday moving the highway, but that will take time. The crowd talked of visibility, and made mention that at one time the highway ran north of the railroad. They also talked about not wanting the truck traffic through town, it became a safety issue for their children. The questions also centered around cost and responsibility. Who's responsibility is it to improve the road if the trucks travel on the Cemetery Road? Who shoulders the responsibility for squaring up the road? What would response time become for emergency services if the crossing were closed? How would the flood plan be impacted if the road were to be moved? "The delay of trains will change once the double track is complete," said Stupka. At that point the trains can legally travel at 60 mph from Alliance to Ravenna, explained Christen. "Traveling at 60 mph by the time the engineer sees you, it's too late." If there was ever a place for a viaduct, came a voice from the back of the room, this is it.

A BlankTV Premiere Presentation:
The Juliet Massacre - "Lifeless Face"
Formed in 2006, from the remnants of the band Lost In Autumn, The Juliete Massacre deploy heavy melodies in a post hardcore fashion to bring their sound to full power. Influenced by bands from the American and European old and new school death scenes (Decapitated, Dying Fetus, Behemoth, Deicide, Job For A Cowboy, As Blood Runs Black, Despised Icon) The Juliete Massacre are perfecting their brutal craft. Something that is demonstrated well in "Lifeless Face".
In June, the band locked themselves in the Hombre Lobo Studios in Rome to record 'Pray For An Afterlife'. The resulting EP blew away all expectations. "Pray For An Afterlife" is like a series of shockwaves, beautiful to behold, yet vicious in their ability to blow you away.

Launched 55 years ago, in 1958, the ES-335 is undoubtedly a classic, not only of Gibson's but of all electric guitar designs. What the Les Paul model is to solidbodies, the ES-335 is to semis – beautiful, versatile and coveted by players across all genres.
The "basic" design has been ever changing, though. If you don't know your 335s from 345s, 355s, Lucilles, Trini Lopez and Dave Grohl models and more, here's a quick-fire guide.
Gibson ES-335
President/chief designer for Gibson in the '50s, the legendary Ted McCarty, believed the ES-335 was right behind the Les Paul solidbody as the company's most important body design.
"I came up with the idea of putting a solid block of maple in an acoustic model... it would get some of the same tone as a regular solidbody, plus the instrument's hollow wings would vibrate and we'd get a combination of an electric solidbody and a hollowbody guitar," he recalled. In many ways, the ES-335 recalled Les Paul's own "Log" guitar he built at Epiphone. But the ES-335 was much more sophisticated.
The ES-335 was the first "slimline" archtop guitar the world had seen – its thin body (just 1.75"), double cutaway, semi-hollow body with (solid maple block down center) made it easier to handle than bigger "jazz" hollowbody electrics that preceded it. The ES-335 originally came with single tan binding, unbound f-holes, and in Sunburst or Natural colors.
Many have modded it themselves: Alvin Lee's "Big Red" 335 added a single-coil pickup between the buckers with its own volume control, and a different bridge.
Gibson ES-345
The ES-345 was also launched in 1958 as an uptown version of the ES-335. The design is near-identical to the 335, but the 345 featured a multi-position "Varitone" switch – this added various combination of coils and capacitors to the pickup circuitry of guitar to add more tonal "color" to the sound. The ES-345 also featured an optional Stereophonic output jack, gold-plated hardware, large, parallelogram fingerboard inlays, and a thicker edge binding than that of the ES-335. A notable 345 user was legendary bluesman Freddie King, a major influence on Eric Clapton.
Here's King tearing it up on "Boogie Funk" from 1973.
Gibson ES-355
The 355 was the "penthouse" model, if you like of the '58 line. Cherry finish was usually the standard, though other colors do were made. ES-355s have usually included either a Bigsby or a Gibson tremolo unit and a Stereo Varitone. Ebony fingerboard with large block inlays and a bound, custom-style peghead were standard. Like the ES-335 and ES-345, was named because of its original dollar price. Cheap? Well, $355 in 1958 equals circa $2800 in 2013 – an ES-355 is similarly priced right now.
The ES-355 has also found its way into many hands. The best-known player is probably B.B. King, whose trademark guitar, "Lucille," was the basis for a 1981 signature model (see below). But the ES-355, in white, has also been played often by Rush's Alex Lifeson. "I got the 355 in 1976, and that became my main guitar probably until '81 or so." Another white 355 has been back in Lifeson's gigging armory in recent years.
In the U.K the ES-355 has become, perhaps surprisingly, something of an indie/alt rock guitar of choice. Johnny Marr played one regularly in The Smiths' brief career in the '80s, and Bernard Butler (Suede) and Noel Gallagher (Oasis/solo) admit to buying red Bigsby-loaded 355s solely because they were Marr fans.
Watch these Lifeson and Gallagher clips that tell you the guitars can be good for prog virtuosity or stadium anthems.
Gisbon ES-330
You may think an ES-330TD (from 1959) is just a lower-spec 335. Wrong. It has the same body shape, but is fully hollow. Its warmer tones found favour with jazz greats Wes Montgomery and Emily Remler, but don't think a hollowbody can't also rock. In its Epiphone-brand cousin the Casino, this hollowbody 335-alike was also a favorite of Beatles John Lennon, George Harrison and Paul McCartney.
For 2013, the ES-330TD is back. The ES-330TD (Vintage Burst) is classic-correct with two Vintage Wound P-90 pickups and a trapeze tailpiece. Then there is the smaller-bodied ES-390 from the Gibson Custom Memphis – still hollow, but with mini humbuckers and a lustrous cherry, Vintage Sunburst or Ebony finish. The ES-390 is essentially a "new" guitar, but shows the 335 shape and template is adaptable.
Gibson Trini Lopez
From 1964 (to '71 at first), Gibson made Trini Lopez models. Lopez was a huge star at the time, and The Standard was a swerve on the 335's original design, modded with diamond/slash "f-holes", diamond neck inlays and a "hockey-stick" headstock reminiscent of the Gibson Firebird.
"I gave Gibson all the ideas I liked – the diamond fret-markers, the diamond f-holes, the headstock, plus buttons here-and-there to make it easier for me to switch from rhythm to lead," says Lopez. Noel Gallagher was a fan of this one too – he played a '60s Trini Lopez often in the early 2000s with Oasis: see it in the video for "Lyla." The Gibson Trini Lopez has been back in production since, but originals and reissues are now a rare find.
That said, it's the basis for the signature 335-alike of another fan – Dave Grohl (keep reading!)
Gibson B.B. King Lucille
King's Lucille from Gibson Custom is a variation on an ES-355. King's signature model has a body with no f-holes and a fine-tuner TP-6 tailpiece. It is available in King's traditional Ebony finish and Cherry – but for that B.B vibe, it's got to be the sumptuous Ebony or Cherry finish.
In previous years, King liked a 355. You can hear the "honk" of the Varitone's capabilities on King's 1969 classic "The Thrill is Gone." King has played ES-335s and ES-345s too, but the lavish 355 was the one fit for a King… and became the basis of signature Lucilles (from 1980).
In earlier years, King would often stuff his regular ES-355's f-holes with cloth to inhibit feedback, so the no-f-hole Lucille was a much-needed mod for the bluesman.
Gibson CS-336 and other variations
A "standard"-size 335 too big for you? Enter the 336, a scaled-down version. With a body 13-inches wide and 16 inches long it's easier on smaller frames but still looks like a classic ES-335. (See also the 390, above.)
And there is also the 339 (and the better-appointed 359). All differ slightly, in woods and build, but if you find a "regular" ES-335 size unwieldy, look at these size variations.
So, plenty of choice there. And there are more. Any favorites of yours from the Gibson ES-335's extended family?
And before we end, here is "Mr 335" himself – Larry Carlton – playing his own tune "Room 335." Carlton has his own interactive instruction website at mr335.tv.
To its fans, the ES-335 (and its cousins) is the ultimate electric guitar – full of tone, versatile, and damn good looking too. Please, add your thoughts and favorite players in the comments!

How do YOU feel about being a mom over 40? My son is 3; I was 40 when I had him (barely) - in other words, I am not merely 43, I am about to turn 44!
I will be the first to admit that I am a bit jealous of my friends who had children in their 20s and are now enjoying more freedom. On the other hand, I wouldn't trade my life in my 20s and 30s for raising kids. Curious to know how others feel about the fact that you will be sending your child into adulthood as you reach retirement age.

Most of this is deep X's and O's stuff and gibberish to me, but what I got out of it is a great reminder that Kam Chancellor has the patience and awareness to shut down big tight ends and play the ball. There's also mentions that our cornerbacks are good at shutting down slants. We'll need all of this on Sunday.
People keep talking about our physicality at DB as being our prime trait, but it would still break down without proper technique. Our guys have that. Kris Richards is doing some serious coaching magic with our secondary.

From The Mayor's Desk ...
I always say that being mayor of New York is the best job in the world - but, as every kid will tell you, there's no profession any more exciting and appealing than being a firefighter. It offers the chance to help protect your neighbors, and earn the respect and admiration of millions. And just as important to adults are some of the FDNY's other great benefits - like flexible work schedules, health coverage for life, and the option to retire after 20 years with a pension.
So, I know what you may be thinking: "How can I sign up?" Well, fortunately, the time is now. And since the exam that determines department hiring takes place only once every four years, you don't want to miss out. Sign up before October 13th - and you too might become one of our city's Bravest.
In fact, we've revised the requirements you need to take the test to attract more applicants. Anyone between the ages of 17 and 29 with a high school diploma can register for the exam. Previously, 30 hours of college credits were required; now applicants must have either fifteen college credits, or at least six months of military service, or at least six months of full-time work experience.
Let me stress that this is not a reduction in standards. Far from it. Applicants will still have to take the same rigorous physical and written test as they have in the past. And we will continue to select only those who achieve the highest scores. We are also lengthening and intensifying the training period that recruits must complete at the Fire Academy. But because we've now changed the requirements to apply, we should have a bigger pool to choose from, which will offer up stronger and more diverse candidates.
Recently, we've made a lot of progress in building a fire department that better reflects the diversity of our city's population. Over the past five years, the FDNY has hired twice as many minorities as during the entire previous decade, which has tripled the number of minority firefighters. But we still have a long way to go.
That's why we're making a special effort to ensure that the upcoming exam is an opportunity available to as many New Yorkers as possible. We have, for instance, beefed up the FDNY's recruitment unit so that it now conducts outreach year-round. We are offering free tutorials and physical training programs to help applicants prepare for both parts of the test. We've also teamed up with the Arnell Group on a multi-language ad campaign that's targeting communities that haven't traditionally been well-represented in the Fire Department.
As I said before, anyone interested in taking the test, which will be held in January, can apply up until October 13th. Call 311 or visit the FDNY's website at nyc.gov for information about the test and how the best job in the world also has the best benefits in the world.
Over the past 140 years, thousands of heroes have served the FDNY. Now we're building a fire department for the 21st Century - one that continues to be brave, skilled, and highly dedicated, but also one that more fully represents the great city it's charged with protecting. That might include your son, your daughter, your brother, your sister, or maybe, just possibly - you.

On behalf of the thirteen churches in southwestern Michigan, we're delighted to host Pavel Goia, editor Ministry magazine and international prayer conference speaker, on Sabbath, January 5, 2019. Pastor Goia was featured significantly in Ron Clouzet's Adventism's Greatest Need because of a resurrection he and his wife sought and received from God. A man of bold prayer and intercession, Pastor Pavel is the right preacher to lead us into an uncertain New Year globally, nationally and even locally. He will preach in both the 9:00 AM and 11:45 AM services at Pioneer, and in between will preach in the Berrien Springs Spanish Church (10:30 AM). An afternoon district-wide prayer conference will follow here at Pioneer (3:00 PM). Mark your calendar, and let us discover how to make collective prayer our high priority in 2019.

On Sunday, December 2, 2018 Dwight K. Nelson, Lead Pastor at Pioneer Memorial Church, took the pastoral team and their families on a Christmas excursion. Following a delightful meal, they headed to a nearby ice skating rink. The team is thankful for the time together!
Seasons cheer was in the crisp, cool air as the pastor's kids and the rest of the team circled around the rink. A few huddled on the sidelines while laughing, taking pictures, and waving through the merry gang of PMC skaters. Almost an hour after getting on the ice, Pastor Nelson incurred an injury to his right hip and right shoulder. Everyone is thankful that he did not hit his head on the ice.
The staff from the arena responded professionally, assessing the situation and calling for the paramedics. They even responded warmly to the suggestion from one of the other pastors. That suggestion was that along with the paramedics, they include a local marching band to escort him to a local hospital where he would get x-rays taken. (unfortunately, they were not available). On arriving at the hospital, they were received and attended with great care. Thank you to all who work in medical services for the professionalism and attentiveness you offer your patients.
As of December 3, Pastor Dwight went through his first successful surgery for his hip, and on December 5 he is scheduled to go into surgery again to attend to his shoulder.

Danny Glover: 2nd Amendment aimed at slaves
Constitution gave owners' 'right to protect themselves'
Actor Danny Glover says it was slave-owners fearful of being attacked, or being targeted by Indian uprisings, who originated the idea of the Second Amendment.
The comments were revealed by CampusReform.org, which posted a video (above) of the recent statements by the longtime leftist actor during an appearance at Texas A&M.
"I don't know if you know the genesis of the right to bear arms," Glover told the students. "The Second Amendment comes from the right to protect themselves from slave revolts, and from uprisings by Native Americans."
He continued, "A revolt from people who were stolen from their land, or revolt from people whose land was stolen from, that's what the genesis of the Second Amendment is."
Glover long has advocated publicly for leftist and socialist causes. In fact, bloggers once defended him by describing him as "a pretty hardcore Hollywood leftist" and explaining he "hangs out with Hugo Chavez, visits Cuba, talks a lot about American misdeeds in Central America…"
Most movie fans know him for "Lethal Weapon" and "Angels in the Outfield."
He was talking to students at an event in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Campus Reform followed up: "Director of Texas A&M's Memorial Student Center, Luke Altendorf, told Campus Reform on Friday that the university was unaware of Glover's talking points prior to his speech."
"I had no idea, we really didn't know that topic was coming up," he said. "Someone was asking a question about activism. I think that's where some of that came from."
He wouldn't reveal to Campus Reform what the school paid Glover, but previous speakers at the event, such as Harry Belafonte and Angela Davis, have been given $25,000, Campus Reform said.
"We didn't feel those speakers you are referring to are bad decisions on these topics because we want to foster discussion," he said.
Campus Reform explained the video was from members of the Texas Aggie Conservatives.
Chairman Eric Schroeder said, "It should be a time for real reflection and respect. Instead, the university pushes a political agenda."
He questioned when the university would be willing to sponsor a speaker who would balance the conversation from the conservative perspective, Campus Reform reported.
"We expect President [Bowen] Loftin to stand by his commitment to diversity and fully support our efforts to bring in a conservative speaker to provide an alternative to Mr. Glover's far left message," Schroeder said.
Glover also rambled about global warming, development, the "fragile Mother Earth" and the Occupy movement
Some online resources list the reasons for the Second Amendment as being a desire to organize a militia, participating in law enforcement, deterring a tyrannical government, repelling invasions and even suppressing slave revolts. But the source cited for the last was Mother Jones.
The Second Amendment was adopted with the other parts of the Bill of Rights in December 1791, 15 years after the fight for independence began.

"Maybe I'm just naive, but designing a graphics API such that all image data had to be sent over a socket to another process every time the image needed to be drawn seems like complete idiocy. Unfortunately, that is precisely what the X Window System forces a program to do, and exactly what Cairo does when drawing images in Linux - a full copy of the image data, send to another process, no less, every time it is drawn. One would think there would be some room for improvement. Unsurprisingly, others felt the same way about X, and decided to write an extension, Xlib Shm or XShm for short, that allows images to placed in a shared memory segment from which the X server reads which allows the program to avoid the memory copy. GTK already makes use of the XShm extension, and it seems like a good idea to see if Gecko couldn't do the same."

RE: Caching?
Why not cache a few larger XShm segments and parcel out pieces of them for small images? That would save a lot of the setup costs.
I wondered the same. (I have zero experience with xlib; I'm just guessing)
In general you can do one of two things:
A. Create slab cache management for Shm (within xlib; E.g. 1KB, 2KB, 8KB, 16Kb). Use lazy release for unused blocks.
B. Allocate a huge shared buffer and cut it into small random-size pieces.
(B.) has the obvious down side of concurrency that may negate any performance advantage you get by reducing the number of share memory blocks to 1.
(A.) will increase the memory footprint of your application and fragment your memory. (Especially in browsers - where image size tend to vary radically)

You're replying to a comment by Peter Krumins.
Chad, thanks for leaving a comment. There are a couple of points that I want to make:
1. you don't check for errors - my code does very rigorous error checking so that my applications did not suddenly die because of unhandled exceptions.
2. i love the conciseness of your code - mine is 10x longer.
3. i did not know lxml supported xpath - very nice to learn that.
4. i know lxml is much faster than BeautifulSoup, but it's also less prone to malformed HTML. but perhaps in the case when we parse Google it's not that important.
That's everything that I can think of at the moment.

The trademark chuckle, his wide-eyed smile, and Murphy's endless wisecracks and impersonations made him (at least in his heyday) the biggest movie star in the world. While we're not sure yet where A Thousand Words belongs in the overall Murphy canon, here's a look back at our top 10 favorite Eddie Murphy movies.
Ok, Dreamgirls isn't really an "Eddie Murphy movie," but it is the only one that garnered him an Oscar nomination. As singer James "Thunder" Early, Murphy dazzled audiences as a performer who's as affable as he is flawed. Once known as a comic who riffed on legends like James Brown, and sang novelty pop tunes like "Party All the Time," here, Murphy proved that he can sing, dance and act.
For a lot of his fans, there's pre-N.P. Murphy and post-N.P. Murphy. The post-Nutty Professor is the family guy who minds his P's and Q's and appeals to the kiddies in strictly G to PG, broad comedy fare like Doctor Dolittle, Daddy Day Care and Norbit. The pre-Nutty Murphy
liked to use the F word, and other colorful phrases, in adult comedy classics like 48 Hrs.
and Beverly Hills Cop. Choose your potion, but in the actual Nutty Professor, Murphy showed his gift for taking on multiple performances and was completely charming as Professor Klump.
It's slick, fast, completely implausible, and highly entertaining. In 1987, Eddie Murphy was at the top of his game, and it showed in his second outing as Detroit cop Axel Foley. This time, Top Gun director Tony Scott adds his distinctive razzle dazzle, and Axel's whole schtick (down to the cool jacket, sunglasses and niftier haircut) seems a bit more polished. No matter. It's still a kick to see him having fun in his usual relaxed, street saavy way, especially when paired with that '80s Laurel & Hardy - Detectives Billy Roseweed, er, wood, and Sergeant Taggart.
Coming in at #7 is one of the all-time great stand-up comedy concerts, the rude, crude, ultra-un-p.c. and over-the-top raunchy Delirious. Some might deem a lot of what's here fairly offensive, and they'd be right. But, Murphy's impersonations of everyone from Michael Jackson to Stevie Wonder to Mr. T and Ralph Kramden are spot on, and the whole family BBQ bit, especially the drunk uncle, Big Foot and "Gooney Goo" routines, are classic. It's Murphy as a young artist, fearless and ready and willing to say and do whatever he wants.
At the opposite end of the Delirious spectrum is Shrek, a fun animated adventure that rivals Pixar's creations, and teamed up first-rate SNL alums Mike Myers as the ogre Shrek and Eddie Murphy as his pal Donkey. While Shrek's the star, and we love Myers whenever he sports that cool, unruly Scottish brogue (especially as the dad in So I Married an Axe
Murderer), we also get a huge kick out of Murphy's overexcited sidekick. Throw in some pop
culture references and tunes, and voila, a royally funny cartoon fit for two more sequels.
Murphy's tale of a royal prince coming to America to find his bride has been somewhat overlooked over the years. It's got a lot of funny bits (anything in the barbershop, with Murphy and Arsenio Hall playing various patrons and barbers, is comedy gold). Director Landis spares no expense on production value, and this was one of the first times we saw Murphy playing a clean-cut character, less foul-mouthed and street smart, but equally likeable.
This John Landis comedy stars Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd as, respectively, a street hustler and a commodities broker who unknowingly "trade places" as part of a bet between tycoon brothers Don Ameche and Ralph Bellamy. Murphy, in only his second big screen role, couldn't be more hilarious. The role fits him like a glove, and it was evident to everyone watching (and a lot were watching at this point), that Murphy had arrived, fully
formed, ready to rule the entertainment world.
Some might think that Trading Places deserves to be higher than Bowfinger, but, to quote another 1999 movie, "Take a closer look." The Frank Oz comedy, pairing comedic geniuses Murphy and Steve Martin in a tale of small-time movie-making, is extremely witty and entertaining. It's also the best movie starring Eddie Murphy in two captivating roles: 'Jiff' Ramsey, an employee at Blockbuster who has a special way of saying "Awesome"; and his brother Kit Ramsey, the biggest action movie star on the planet. Martin co-stars as the title character, and also wrote the deft script, but it's Murphy who's unforgettable as these two oddball, winning comic creations.
In 1982, the buddy cop comedy was born. Lethal Weapon, Rush Hour, Tango & Cash, Bad Boys, etc. All of those movies owe a debt to the comedy-thriller that set the bar for classic love-hate partnerships born out of necessity and bullets. Nick Nolte is the tough-as-nails cop forced to team up with Eddie Murphy's slick convict to take down some nasty cop killers. Their banter is hilarious, but watch especially for Murphy's legendary scene shaking down the locals in a redneck bar. There was a "new
sheriff" in town, and his name was Eddie Murphy.
It's hard to believe Sylvester Stallone was once considered for the title role. One of moviedom's most classic comedy characters arrived in 1984 by the name of Axel Foley ("Acquel? Ackmel?" asks Bronson's Pinchot's hilarious, near-undecipherable art gallery assistant..."No, that's Ax-el Foley"). The movie is one of the greatest action comedies, and Murphy was forever immortalized as the silly, endearing police officer who turns Beverly
Hills and the world on its head, sticking bananas in tail pipes, ruining buffets at the country club, and doing whatever he can to solve the crime, have a
good time and make sure everyone in shouting distance has as much fun as he does. Mission
accomplished. Cue theme music.

Cornerstone Charter Schools
This video profiles Madison-Carver Academy and Cornerstone Health High School, two public charter schools in the city of Detroit. Both schools make use of blended learning, which allows each student to move at his or her individual pace through coursework."[The] blended learning model is simply using technology to be able to diagnose learning disabilities, to be able to identify weaknesses and strengths, and develop digital content around that in order to help students be successful," said Madison-Carver Academy Principal Pamela Farris."The idea is that it is a very student centered approach that doesn't value time, it values competency," said Health High School Principal Michael Griffie.The model appears to be working. Madison-Carver Academy reports that the school obtained two to three years of student growth in language arts usage,reading and mathematics for students in kindergarten through fourth grade.David Antoine Lee, a ninth-grader at the high school, said that he has improved tremendously. "When I was in a traditional setting, I didn't do so well," he said. "Here, it's a big improvement. I'm actually doing work and getting stuff done. My mom knows that this school has something good going on."

What It Is
A refined yet functional SUV that can carry up to nine passengers.
Best Thing
Increased comfort and ride quality.
Worst Thing
Sluggish acceleration.
Snap Judgment
While not particularly fun to drive, these family-haulers get the job done well.
Loved or hated, the Chevrolet Suburban is a true history-maker. The Suburban created the full-size SUV market in 1936, starting out as an affordable, versatile hauler and eventually gaining the reputation as a clunky gas-guzzler of the 90s. This model spawned a shorter-wheelbase version, the Chevrolet Tahoe, which is now the automaker's top selling full-size SUV. For 2015, these models are changing history again with a complete overhaul that brings refinement we haven't seen before in Chevy's full-size SUVs.
GM invited us to drive its next-generation SUVs, and we were curious to see how these vehicles have shed their vestiges of the 90s. We found that the new 2015 SUVs are much quieter, refined, versatile, and fuel-efficient than their predecessors. Fortunately for consumers, prices for these models have only gone up slightly. The 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe begins at just over $45,000, but can be priced to over $20,000 more. Similarly, the 2015 Chevrolet Suburban starts at around $47,300 but can top out to over $70,000. We drove the LTZ trim levels, which account for most Tahoe and Suburban sales. Expect these vehicles to arrive starting February 2014.
WalkaroundWith a prominent new grille and jewel-like LED daytime running lamps, the Tahoe and Suburban create a bigger presence on the road. This is only enhanced by the car's muscular appearance and angular body lines. It looks like a brand new toy, making models like the Nissan Armada and Honda Pilot look ancient. And while Chevy's new models are definitely more chromed-out than before, Chevrolet retained the characteristics that define these SUVs, including a body-on-frame structure.
Sitting DownHeated and cooled seats, leather appointed seats, 12 USB ports, and a rear-seat Blu-ray entertainment system are features you may have never expected to see on these rugged SUVs. GM managed to create a refined space with large seats that are both comfortable and supportive. The comfort extends to all three rows, which receive the same soft-touch materials as in the front. Back seat passengers also have have access to seven USB ports and plenty of cup holders. All around, GM tried to maximize storage in every nook and cranny. A gear selector near the steering wheel frees up tons of storage space between the driver and front passenger, enough room so that GM has created a space that can double as a small file cabinet. Other than this, there are dozens of storage cubbies on the doors and armrests, increasing space from the previous model. One particularly clever storage space is located behind the infotainment touchscreen. With the push of a button, the touchscreen rises up off the console to reveal a USB port and space for small items.
Buyers of previous GM SUVs often complained that the third row didn't fold into the floor to provide extra space. Luckily, GM has remedied this for 2015. Drivers can now fold all seats back with the simple push of a button. Those looking for the most space will likely want to choose the Suburban, which has a cavernous 94.7 cubic feet of max cargo room.
DrivingThe SUVs are as comfortable to sit in as they are to drive. Little road noise permeates the cabin, except on the roughest freeways.
Despite their large size, these vehicles feature car-like handling and drive nimbly on mountain roads. Making three point turns is surprisingly painless. The LTZ trim vehicles also benefit from magnetic ride control, an advanced suspension that reacts quickly to any road situation, making the ride exceptionally smooth. The Suburban and Tahoe also now feature adaptive cruise control for the first time this year.
Both the Tahoe and Suburban come with a new-generation 5.3-liter V-8 Ecotec engine that provides 355 horsepower, up 35 from the previous SUVs. But the Suburban is exceptionally slow to accelerate on the highway. I really had to step on the gas, and passing other cars is difficult. Once on the highway, however, the sluggish feeling goes away and I could focus on the comfortable ride and handling.

House File 2317, introduced in the Iowa House of Representatives on February 12, 2018, and referred to the House Education Committee, would, if enacted, revert the state's science standards to "the science standards utilized by school districts in this state during the 2014-2015 school year" — just before the state adopted the Next Generation Science Standards.
Florida's Senate Bill 1644 — which would make it easier for creationists and climate change deniers to smuggle instructional materials they favor into public school classrooms — was approved by the Senate Education Committee on a 7-3 vote on February 12, 2018.
Connecticut's governor Dannel P. Malloy declared February 12, 2018, Charles Darwin Day in the state of Connecticut, citing the need to protect "the advancement of science and courageous free inquiry."
"After hearing testimony from dozens of students, teachers and parents, all in favor of newly revised science standards for Idaho K-12 schools, the House Education Committee voted Feb. 7 to strip out sections from the standards that referred to the impact of fossil fuels on the environment — climate change," reports Boise Weekly (February 7, 2018).
When Idaho's House Education Committee held hearings on a new set of proposed science standards on February 1 and 2, 2018, it was expected to make a recommendation. But despite hearing from twenty-eight testifiers, all in favor of adoption, the committee failed to recommend approval of the standards. And several members of the committee objected to passages involving climate change and evolution.

Outlook: Eastwood looks to get back to the top with 40 players including 12 seniors.
The Eagles ended Genoa's 48-game regular season win streak in 2011 and went undefeated to win the inaugural NBC title that year.
After starting out last season 0-3 in the nonleague schedule, Eastwood reeled off five straight conference wins. But the Eagles dropped their final two games to Woodmore (27-20) and Genoa (21-10).
Schmeltz completed 34 of 60 passes for 652 yards and six touchdowns. He has started 22 games, and averaged 21.7 yards per rush last season.
Schlumbohm carried 117 times for 678 yards (5.8 per carry) and eight scores.
Punter Brennan Seifert, a junior, earned All-NBC first team. Mang and VanVorce are back after being named all-league second team.
But Eastwood lost its leading receiver and rusher, Isaiah Conkle, to graduation.
Rutherford also is concerned about the experience along both lines.
"We've had a great offseason and we're really excited about the season," Rutherford said.

According to a national survey of physicians conducted by Atlanta-based Jackson Healthcare,* most physicians between the ages of 25 and 34 (83%) report that they are being taught to practice defensive medicine in medical school or residency by an attending physician or mentor.
"Older physicians are sharing lawsuit stories and advice with younger physicians," reports Richard Jackson, chairman and CEO of Jackson Healthcare. "These stories are convincing younger physicians to practice defensive medicine."
The survey data suggest that the practice of defensive medicine is growing, indicated by the fact that fewer physicians in older age brackets responded that they were taught defensive medicine in medical school or residency: 63% for ages 35 to 44, 47% for ages 45 to 54, 32% for ages 55 to 64, and 19% for age 65 and older.
The Jackson survey also revealed that, in addition to increasing the cost of healthcare, defensive medicine practices limit patient access and quality of care, slow the adoption of medical innovations, and discourage future generations from pursuing a career in medicine.
"This is a systemic problem that needs to be addressed at state and national levels," says Jackson.
*Survey methodology: In March 2009, Jackson Healthcare conducted a Web-based survey of 1,407 physicians, with a response rate of 1.13% of 124,572 invitations distributed. The survey has an error range of ±1.7% at the 95% confidence level.

Forget about the price of gasoline: The real skyrocketing expense this year is the Oscar race.
With two deep-pocketed studios locked into one of the closest best picture duels in recent memory and Academy Award voting extended by two weeks, the battle between "Argo" and "Lincoln" has sparked what several Hollywood executives say is the costliest campaign on record.
"It's like an arms race this year," said Jim Burke, a producer on last year's best picture nominee "The Descendants."
OSCARS 2013: Defining scenes | Oscar Watch | Play-at-Home Ballot | Snubs & surprises| Reactions | Trivia | Timeline
The best picture contest recently has been dominated by independent productions such as "The Hurt Locker" and "The Artist" that couldn't easily throw money around as if it were confetti. But in the current Oscar race, Warner Bros.' "Argo" and the Walt Disney Co.'s "Lincoln" are each spending an estimated $10 million and potentially much more touting their film's chances, up to double what a costly campaign has totaled in years past.
Other studios are only a little less profligate: Universal Studios ("Les Misérables"), 20th Century Fox ("Life of Pi") and Sony Pictures ("Zero Dark Thirty") all have spent lavishly on their "For Your Consideration" promotions.

Raspberry Blush Guest Room
Over the weekend, we had the chance to stay in a guest room painted the most beautiful red-orange. Produced by Benjamin Moore, Raspberry Blush (#2008-30) seems like a misnomer—the hue reminds us more of coral than raspberries. It's a very unique blend of deep pink, orange, and red.
The photos above appear more orange than the actual color. (It's always impossible to match colors on a computer screen.) Taken early in the morning, these photos hint at the richness of the walls and the way they change color depending on the light.
Neutral window treatments and white trim set off the wall color especially well. The room is furnished simply with a sleeper sofa, a gorgeous antique cabinet, and a beaded green and blue chandelier. Mirrored doors along one wall expand the sense of space, and a marble sink is a nice amenity for guests. Overall, the space felt very warm and welcoming.
For more paint color recommendations from Apartment Therapy, check out Mark Chamberlain's ColorTherapy columns.
More information on this paint color: Benjamin Moore Raspberry Blush 2008-30
(Thanks to Ed and Laurel for their hospitality and for letting us photograph their guest room!)
