New Orleans Struggles With a Homicide Rate That Belies Its Size
By JEFFREY GETTLEMAN
Published: July 11, 2003
NEW ORLEANS, July 10— Sometimes, a crime is so offensive, it turns a city's stomach and leads to great change.
So far, the killing of Jasmine Jackson is not one of them.
On Sunday night, the 16-year-old Ms. Jackson, a slender, copper-skinned girl called Jazz, was walking home from a block party when she was jumped by two other girls.
Her cousin said she tried to fight them off but was stabbed in the arm with a steak knife. One of the girls then plunged the knife into Jazz's chest. Ms. Jackson could not run because she had been shot in the leg last year, randomly, and still walked with a limp.
She collapsed on a nearby stoop, holding her hand over her heart.
''I remember saying, 'Stay with me, Jazz, stay with me,' '' said Keila Smith, 15, who tried to help. ''Then she closed her eyes.''
Jazz died barely a week after two teenage girls were sent to prison for fatally stabbing another 16-year-old girl with a steak knife. But besides a few news accounts, there was little outrage beyond Christopher Homes, the broken-dreams public housing neighborhood where Jazz fell.
One reason for the numbness is that New Orleans is in the middle of a major crime wave, with homicides up 30 percent for the year. The city's homicide rate, 54.5 per 100,000, exceeds that of Washington, the most violent large city in the United States. But in a wrinkle of statistics, New Orleans ducks that distinction because its population is 14,000 shy of the 500,000 mark needed to qualify as a big city in federal crime reports.
Some ministers here have been asking for the National Guard to be sent in.
''Certain neighborhoods are under siege,'' the Rev. Torin Sanders, a Baptist preacher, said. ''The last three months I've done at least five funerals, just homicides alone.''
No one seems to know exactly why killings in New Orleans are increasing. Nationally, there is no clear trend, with homicides this year down in some places, like Detroit, and up in others, including Philadelphia. Over all, violent crime is much lower than it was during the mid-1990's, when killings hit a peak.
In New Orleans, like many other places, the poor job market is often blamed.
''The economy is not booming right now, and there's definitely a correlation between the economy and crime,'' Superintendent Eddie Compass of the New Orleans Police Department said.
Other factors include recent turf wars that broke out after two big public housing complexes were shut down and residents were shifted to other projects. Then there are the budget cuts that depleted inner-city services.
''How many psychologists have they sent to Christopher Homes to find out what kind of trauma exists there?'' Malik Rahim, a community activist, said. ''Now the next kid is saying, 'I'd better carry me a knife, because I'm not going down like she went down.' ''
Keila Smith, the 15-year-old who watched her friend Jazz die, has not talked to any counselors.
''I keep hearing Jazz breathe,'' she said.
She described a violent teenage world, where girls with pony tails and plastic rings tuck knives in their shorts and carry spray bottles filled with bleach.
Meda Chesney-Lind, a women's studies professor at the University of Hawaii who specializes in female crime, said: ''When girls kill, it's almost always other girls or children. Violent boys tend to be violent because they grew up in violent neighborhoods. Girls, it's much more that they've been the victim of violence at home.''
Christopher Homes, a tangle of two-story apartments splattered with graffiti, is probably no worse than many other public housing projects. But the neighborhood, in Algiers, 20 minutes from the French Quarter, seems especially bleak in the doldrums of summer, with stagnant water from Tuesday night's rain pooling in the streets and old men pushing rusty bikes through tall, dead grass.
A few boys play basketball. A few girls hang around. But there is no echo of double-dutch jump rope here. No public swimming pool. No job training. Nothing.
''For a girl, all there's to do is chill,'' Miranda Ingram, 18, said. ''And the harder you chill, the more trouble you get into.''
Ms. Jackson, who loved crawfish and roller-skating, was the youngest of five children. Her mother is an unemployed cocktail waitress; her father, an unemployed construction worker. She had problems reading, and at age 16 was just about to enter ninth grade. She may not have been the best student. ''But she was sweet,'' her father, Gilbert Burke, said.
Every time they saw each other, she gave him 25 quick little kisses on his cheek.
Last November, she was shot by a stray bullet while standing in a crowd on Canal Street. It was around 10 on Sunday night when she was stabbed. Shortly afterward, the police arrested two 14-year-old girls. On Tuesday, the police charged a 25-year-old woman with handing them the knife.
All the girls involved used to be friends and the only explanation for the attack was petty rivalries.
''They was jealous,'' Patricia Jackson, the cousin who tried to fend off the girls, said. ''Jazz was the cute type. Boys liked her.''
On steamy days like today, when other girls are splashing in sprinklers, Jazz Jackson's family sits in a quiet apartment staring at a picture.
It was taken at a school dance a few months ago. Jazz is wearing a gold dress with her manicured toes peeking out from underneath. The photo is labeled ''An evening under the stars.''
Jazz, her family says, is now among them.

I have a Lexmark X1180 printer/scanner that I try to get to work with a 64-bit Win 7 HP Probook 4720s, but without success.
I use the driver program cjsX1100EN.exe downloaded from:
After assuring that there is no old version of the driver installed, I run the exe file, and then the setup program.
The driver installation program runs without any problem but as it completes I get a message from Windows saying that the driver for the X1180 is not installed.... (?)
I have disabled MS Security Essentials antivirus during installation.
I've got the driver to work on another machine (using the same procedure except that on this one I have Sophos antivirus installed): A 64-bit Windows 7 Dell Studio 15.
Have you any ideas what could be wrong in relation to the HP?

It seems to me that my costlier (Tamron 90 f/2.8 macro) lens gives better colors than my cheap Canon 18-55 IS kit lens.
So does lens matter for color quality? What physical processes are involved in that?
Yes the lens design and construction can and does influence colour reproduction. Different glass formulas and different coatings transmit frequencies of light differently, and lens defects such as flare will likely affect the colour reproduction.
Whilst more vibrant colours are generally seen as "better" it's worth knowing that different manufacturers intentionally produce different renderings, sometimes according to cultural preferences. For example German lenses produced by Leica known for being cooler compared to Japanese designed lenses from Canon and Nikon.
So here is the mini test :)
Canon 400D camera. Both shot at f/5.6 4,0s iso 100 (just a lamp for light). Made camera white balance calibration.
Tamron 90:
Canon 18-55:
So the amazing thing is that with the same exposure the 18-55 is ratehr darker.
Unfortunately the test is not quite resolutive, since there are too many variables to consider. And the test didn't cover them all.
For sure the bad exposition caused by Canon is affecting the color rendering, and this could be the effect I have experienced before.
Ok the two images above are too dark, so I take two more pics, with better exposure.
tamron 90:
canon 18-55:
Tamron 90mm has got a clear advantage, my guess is that reasons are:
On the other hand I wouldn't really go looking at wavelength transfer function of glasses or similar physical effects.

Gold May Extend Gains on European Crisis, Reliance Capital Says
Gold may extend its best rally since at least 1920 as investors seek a store of wealth amid Europe's debt crisis and expectations of slowing global growth and rising inflation, according to Reliance Capital Asset Management Ltd.
"The current global macroeconomic environment is very conducive for higher gold prices," said Sundeep Sikka, Mumbai-based chief executive officer of the money manager, which runs India's second-biggest gold exchange-traded fund. "The fundamental outlook for gold remains extremely bullish and paints a rosy picture for gold bulls."
Bullion reached a record $1,921.15 in September as investors sought to diversify away from equities and some currencies amid the European debt crisis and signs of slowing economic growth. The metal may average $1,766 an ounce this year and trade as high as $2,055, according to a London Bullion Market Association survey of traders and analysts.
"The rise in volatility across all assets makes investors jittery about their investments," Sikka said in e-mailed responses. "We see gold continuing to attract interest even in 2012. Investors are looking for a haven to park their money as the market sentiment for equity is uncertain."
Bullion rose 10 percent in 2011 for an 11th year of gains, beating the 1.2 percent decline in the Standard & Poor's GSCI Total Return Index of 24 commodities and the 9.4 percent retreat in the MSCI All-Country World Index of equities. Gold for immediate delivery fell 0.4 percent to $1,611.13 an ounce as of 11:24 a.m. in Mumbai.
Prices may fall in the "near term" as some investors lock in gains, Sikka said. He didn't give specific price forecasts.

Comcast SportsNet is cheap, so we have been subjected to the Philadelphia Flyers' broadcast of the Capitals preseason game tonight, plus Craig Laughlin. So not only have we been listening to the remedial hockey analysis of Keith Jones, but we've also been subjected to trivia like the brain teaser above.
Duhhhh. No idea, CSN Philly. Can you give us a hint?
The more difficult question would have been: who is that guy who is not Aaron Volpatti?

By Eve Meinhardt, ParaglideJanuary 21, 2009
FORT BRAGG, N.C. - Domestic violence is an issue that receives a lot of attention in the military community. It is an issue taken seriously at Fort Bragg where Soldiers face the extra stress that separations and reunions place on them and their Families during deployment rotations.
One of the misconceptions about domestic violence is that when a victim decides not to pursue a claim, they are lying and can't be believed if they should file a future claim.
There are a number of reasons why a victim may not pursue a claim without the claim being dismissed as false. They may feel that they are economically dependent on the abuser, fear for their lives or just love their abuser and blame themselves for the abuser's actions.
"Most research shows that it takes a victim an average of seven times before getting out of an abusive situation," said Tom Hill, Army Community Service, Family Advocacy Program manager. "While 70 percent of the abusers are male, there are males victimized by abusive females. The numbers may be higher because some male victims may never report being abused."
If a victim does not pursue a claim and files a new one at a later date, their second, third or even tenth claim will be taken as seriously and given the same amount of attention as the initial claim.
Anyone seeking assistance whether reporting a claim or seeking the help of a counselor, has the option of remaining anonymous. If they don't want assistance from the resources available on Fort Bragg, FAP can provide them with a list of other agencies that offer assistance.
Hill also suggested that Families needing counseling or advice visit one of the Fort Bragg chaplains, who don't have to disclose information discussed and receive extensive training in mediation and marital counseling.
"People should not risk going to just anyone for assistance or counseling. The people they go to may not be trained to help," said Hill.
Carolyn Kemokai is one of the FAP victim advocates. They perform the tasks their titles imply, they advocate for victim's rights and work with them to develop a plan for their safety and even work with Army Emergency Relief to help meet financial needs if necessary.
"Being an advocate is very gratifying," said Kemokai. "It's good to know that there is a system there to help people. My job is to help make sure the system is working."
FAP even has a program in place to make sure victims who are financially dependent on an abusive spouse are provided for when they come forward to get out of the relationship. This can include receiving monthly payments, continuing medical benefits, maintaining post exchange and commissary privileges and relocation assistance.
As part of the Army Family Covenant, the FAP team provides Soldiers, their Families and leadership with a wide-range of classes, resources and training to prevent domestic violence, as well as 24-hour access to a victim advocate for anyone who expresses concern for their safety. The training helps teach others what to look for in cases where the victim may be too afraid to come forward.
"There is a big prevention arm at Fort Bragg," said Hill. "We have 12 victim advocates here. At Womack (Army Medical Center) the ER staff have to report any evidence of abuse they see and Womack also has a full-time staff to train hospital staff about the need to report and what signs to look for."
Army leadership also receives training on how to recognize signs of domestic violence and how to report it.
"Commanders and first sergeants are trained if they get wind of anyone who might be in an abusive situation, whether they are the victim or the partner, they've got to separate the couple for at least 72 hours to determine if they are safe of not - no matter how minor it may seem. Even the most minor incident could turn fatal. The stakes are too high and we can't take that chance," said Hill.
Leaders who suspect an abusive relationship are mandated to report it.
Soldiers also receive annual domestic violence awareness training. This training not only teaches them how to recognize signs of domestic violence but it also teaches about the outreach programs available to Soldiers and Families experiencing problems.
Anyone involved in an abusive relationship or who suspects a friend, neighbor or co-worker is a victim of domestic violence needing help, can call the victim hotline at 322-3418. A victim advocate is available 24 hours a day.

"Strasbourg, Alsace" Strasbourg by DrewV
Strasbourg Travel Guide: 1,073 reviews and 3,459 photos
How rough must little Alsace have it? Trapped between Germany and France, being tossed around like a football from first one country then the other. Left with no real sense of belonging to either but being a unique mixture of both.
And so you have Strasbourg. A little bit of Germany, a little bit of France, and 100% Alsatian (in a geographical/cultural sense, not in the big shaggy dog sense -- although you might see a few of them too).
What does that mean for you, the traveller? It means French-quality cuisine with German heartiness. Some of the best food in Europe. It also means a gorgeous Germanic half-timbered district named "Petit France."
Strasbourg is to be tasted. Mangez!
I would be remiss if I didn't explain my Strasbourg weekend adventure. You see, we had great plans to spend a full day and evening in Strasbourg before spending the night at the Marriott in Karlsruhe, after which we would hit Baden-Baden the next day. All this was contingent on getting on the InterCity from Bonn (where my friend Gabrielle lived) at 9 AM.
Unfortunately, Gabrielle flipped out, thinking that she didn't have enough money to take the train. In her flipping, we missed the train, and a four-hour train ride became a nine-hour odyssey involving four changes, slow trains and layovers in random towns like Offenburg. By the time, we made Strasbourg, we learned that we had only a few hours before the last train to Germany left. We could walk a bit, check out the cathedral, eat dinner, grab a bi�re, and et back on the train. So, be impressed that this page is as involved as it is -- I've never done so much sightseeing in so short a time.
- In a nutshell:Petit-France? Nein, fraulein!

Released: Jun 01st, 2003
Running Time: 80
Company: Dreamland
Cast: Mercedes (I), Randy Spears, Tyce Bun', Kyle Stone (straight), Miles Douglas, Mariah Cherry, Tanya Danelle, Zana, Amythist Stone, Sadie Sexton
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
Revisit the good old days of entertaining adult movie-making. Equally fitting for couples and singles. Well-written.
Hey, hey - a real old-fashioned video shot in the style commonly found years ago in drive-ins which showed sex movies. Two traveling dudes, Randy Spears and Kyle Stone, make a pit stop at a whorehouse out West in the boonies. The action is accompanied by a musical soundtrack written by Cash Markman which is a dirty comical parody of tunes by the Byrds and other '60s and '70s biker themes. Spears is as great as a real male chauvinist as Sadie Sexton is a man hater.
Spears' first and only actual conquest is busty Mercedes and, while they are occupied, Stone plays voyeur to the girl/girl fling with Sadie Sexton and Tanya Danielle. Spears then takes the voyeur role as he watches Amythist Stone knowingly do Tyce Buné with Spears as her personal audience. He also spies on Zana and Sexton and almost gets some action with Zana, but since there is a plot...he gets shot and killed by the pimp boss Miles Douglas before he and Zana can get started. For the moralists out there, Stone goes home before he can be unfaithful and does the wife, Mariah Cherry, on the dining room table.

He is the WORST doctor I have ever been to. I wouldn't refer my most hated enemy to him. He has the worst bedside manner I have ever experienced.
Doesn't listen. My report was half lies and he made any mistakes. Sounds like he needs a neurologist.
Dr. Guevara was so hateful, condescending and distainful, I was amazed that medicine was his chosen field. He obviously dislikes people and has absolutely no respect for them, or what they have to say. His method of communication was so rough, it bordered on verbal abuse, and I came home in tears. This is the last doctor I would recommend to anyone.
This Dr. Seems very uncaring. His largest concern is to build up a huge bill. His office staff is horrible. The Dr. Himself spends little to no time with the patients. He leaves most of the Dr. Part of the job up to a very rude and incompetent assistant. This lady is obviously lacking in her skills. His idea of being a Dr. Is to order every test imaginable so as to increase the bill as much as possible. He offers no actual care of any kind. Quite frankly, the arrogance of this Dr. Is only surpassed by his rudeness.
Guevara is known around the industry as being "shady". He is also very uncaring, short, & VERY unpersonable. Be careful before choosing - there are much better doctors in this field to choose from. Please note where he graduated & take note...it's your first sign.

i'm making some experiments with the relatively new webP image format , that is supported on android 4 (ICS) as shown here .
so far , in order to get the image size before loading it , i used the next code (similar to what google shows here) :
final BitmapFactory.Options options=new BitmapFactory.Options();
//image size is in options.outWidth,options.outHeight
however , when i use it on a webP image that has transparency , it seems that it can't get this info at all (returns -1 for both width and height) .
is it possible that google has a bug on decoding this image file type ?
is there a way to overcome this?
in order to test it , just convert a png file that has transparency (like this one that i've used and added some transparent pixels via paint.net app ) to a webP format (using google's tool ), and try to read the resolution of the file like the code i've used.

What is the most appropriate word or phrase to call all the books, theater plays, movies, etc. that a culture has produced and is still producing? For example, "the products of the French culture."

According to C. Marshall Hattersley, the word you are looking for is "Civilization."
In fact cultural inheritance is defined "the vast heritage of discovery and invention, of culture and learning, of organization whether social, political or industrial, of education and religion, of aspirations and ideals which have been handed down and developed by generation after generation ... Collectively these form the Common Cultural Inheritance of humanity, or more shortly, Civilization." (This Age of Plenty, by C. Marshall Hattersley, p. 232.)
Civilization, under the above perspective, is considered to be the latest stage in the evolution of cultural heredity.
Perhaps arts
The full phrase could combine the group defining adjective with arts as in the French arts.
If this seems too limiting because it may seem to focus on just fine arts, it could be expanded to the French fine and technical arts
Wikipedia: Cultural artifact (or social artifact) is a term used in the social sciences, particularly anthropology, ethnology, and sociology for anything created by humans which gives information about the culture of its creator and users.

A few days later Speer braved the Soviet encirclement and flew into Berlin for one final meeting with his master. In his post-war memoir, "Inside the Third Reich," Speer describes Hitler's deteriorating state: "Trembling, the prematurely aged man stood before me for the last time; the man to whom I had dedicated my life 12 years before. I was both moved and confused. For his part, he showed no emotion when we confronted one another. His words were as cold as his hand: 'So, you're leaving? Good. Auf Wiedersehen.' No regards to my family, no wishes, no thanks, no farewell. For a moment I lost my composure, said something about coming back. But he could easily see that it was a white lie, and turned his attention to something else. I was dismissed."
With the Soviets now completely surrounding central Berlin, and tightening their ring every minute, even Hitler had to admit the end was finally near. He gave permission for many of his Führerbunker staff to leave and try to break through the Soviet lines. Finally, on April 29, he married Eva Braun, his companion since the early 1930s. It has been suggested that Hitler, ever the sentimentalist when it came to his closest companions, married her more to reward her for her long devotion that out of any genuine sense of love, though no one can say for sure.
Together they had decided to commit suicide rather than fall into the hands of the Russians. Seeing the way the body of his Axis partner Benito Mussolini had been desecrated by Italian partisans a few weeks earlier, Hitler ordered his followers to burn his and his wife's bodies. In her post-war memoir, "Hitler's Last Secretary: A First-Hand Account of Life with Hitler," Traudl Junge writes of her last meeting with Hitler and his wife before their deaths:
"He comes very slowly out of his room, stooping more than ever, stands in the open doorway and shakes hands with everyone. I feel his right hand warm in mine, he looks at me but he isn't seeing me. He seems to be far away. He says something to me, but I don't hear it. I didn't take in his last words. The moment we've been waiting for has come now, and I am frozen and scarcely notice what's going on around me. Only when Eva Braun comes over to see me is the spell broken a little. She smiles and embraces me. 'Please do try to get out. You may yet make your way through. And give Bavaria my love,' she says, smiling but with a sob in her voice. She is wearing the Führer's favorite dress, the black one with the roses at the neckline, and her hair is washed and beautifully done. Like that, she follows the Führer into his room — and to her death. The heavy iron door closes."
On April 30, Hitler bit down on a cyanide capsule as he simultaneously shot himself in the head. His wife also bit a cyanide capsule. The two bodies were carried outside into the gardens and placed into a pit, covered in petrol and set ablaze.
Before his death, Hitler had deconstructed the legal office of Führer into its constituent positions — president and chancellor — and named in his will Grand Admiral Karl Dönitz, who was continuing to fight in northwest Germany, Reich president, while naming Goebbels chancellor. After serving in his new office for one day Goebbels and his wife also committed suicide, but not before poisoning their six children.
Dönitz continued the struggle for one week after Hitler's death, largely to ensure that more German soldiers could flee west and surrender to the Americans and the British, rather than the brutal and vengeful Russians. Finally, on May 7-8, after U.S. General Dwight D. Eisenhower threatened to close Allied lines to more prisoners, Dönitz agreed to Germany's complete surrender.
As the Allied armies drove deeper into the Third Reich in 1944-45, they had discovered the full extent of Nazi evil in concentration camps and death camps scattered throughout central Europe. In addition to those killed in a war created solely to feed Hitler's mania, millions of innocents perished in such camps. The victims included the mentally and physically challenged, Slavs, Gypsies, Christian clergy, POWs, homosexuals, communists, social democrats and the Jews, who bore the brunt of Nazi hatred.
Hitler's death signaled the end of Nazi barbarism, which he had created.

Product Reviews
Rated 3 out of 5 by djoseph from Not quite as advertised I purchased two of the Vaxcel Tertial lights in oil burnished bronze. The photo of this finish shows a very glossy surface. I think they must have actually coated the surface with oil to get that much gloss, as it does differ from the actual finish. I was also disconcerted to find that one of my fixtures had some minor scratches in the paint. While what I received is acceptable, I don't feel the quality was up to what I expected. The fixtures also come unassembled....you have to attach the upper portion with the lower ring and glass portion.....it is fairly simple, but I wasn't expecting that. (It does have the potential for the "legs" of the upper portion not aligning with the mounting/screw brackets of the lower portion). Overall I'm mostly satisfied, but feel that I might have overpaid based on what I received. If I'd had a chance to compare this one based on its actual appearance to some I saw at home improvement stores, I'd probably have not made this selection. Lighting Direct was very prompt in the delivery. I must be very close to their distribution center, as I ordered it one morning and had it the next afternoon, and I did not pay for special shipping, I opted for the free ground shipping.

Some area school children got down and dirty on Earth Day.
Kindergartners at Cloverdale Elementary School planted bulbs on school grounds Thursday morning.
Students dug up the flower bed in front of the school and planted 100 bulbs.
Teachers say they should bloom in the summer.
All week, the youngsters have been learning the importance of recycling and keeping the earth clean.
"They need to know how to keep the earth clean and what steps to take so our earth can stay beautiful and clean for a longer time," said kindergarten teacher Lindsey LaMarque
"I think it's really great to be here and helping the environment," added kindergartner Keyshon Small.
The 100 bulbs were donated by General Electric.

I have looked through hundreds of the plug-ins but still can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I did find one plug-in that offered exactly what I was needing but its a "paid" plug-in.
Before I completely give up on finding what I need, I wanted to see if anyone knows of a good affiliate platform plug-in. I need one with all the bells and whistles. I need for it to recruit, track and manage affiliates and also pay them commissions for sales. I would need all links, clicks, leads and sales tracked by the plug-in. Unlimited affiliates too. Banner intergration would be very helpful but not needed.
I know it seems like a lot but I saw a program exactly like this for $50 bucks. All of the plug-ins that I have seen on here, were like link cloakers.. not management.
Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

I have very responsive readers and some of my posts get 500+ comments. Every attempt to paginate comments fails miserably so I eventually gave up, even though it takes forever to load up a page with 500 comments.
Anyway, most of the comments I get are a post by itself, often exceeding 600 words per comment. I was trying to have the top of each comment accompanied with post title:
<?php the_title(); ?>
which will allow to keep at least some form of keyword density since I get some many comments that dilute it big time. I'm totally lost in regards as to where to modify the look of comments.
I've checked out the comments.php file of the theme, but it seems to use this to display comments:
<?php wp_list_comments(); ?>
...and as much as I'm searching for the way to customize my comments with the addition of the post title, I'm failing miserably. Somebody please help - which file and which code am I supposed to look for?
Thanks a lot and happy St. Paddy's day :)

Scorpion Releasing // 1973 // 79 Minutes // Rated PG
Reviewed by Appellate Judge Tom Becker (Retired) // August 27th, 2010
Two beautiful girls, alone on their first vacation...
There is no force in the universe more powerful at turning crap into gold than nostalgia. Perhaps nowhere is this more apparent than in the way some people look at cheesy, older, "drive-in" movies. I say this with assurance, since I'm one of those people. In my fantasy universe, archivists are overseeing painstaking restorations on films like Blue Summer, and critics and historians are lining up to offer sage commentary and insights on the social, cultural, and political significance of these forgotten gems.
Of course, in the real world, I understand quite well why these "forgotten gems" are, for the most part, forgotten, but that doesn't mean they're not a good time. The fact that something was put together for no money and screened in the open air for a bunch of people reveling in the freedom of their learners permits doesn't automatically make it a classic. There are plenty of "drive-in" films that are little more than horribly wasteful excuses to burn through some celluloid, and looking at them now, you can only marvel that the filmmakers weren't sued for alcohol-related injuries or unintended pregnancies, since drinking and fornicating would have been the only honorable ways to have avoided the dreadfulness of what was being projected on the big, white, pockmarked screen.
Case in point: Girls on the Road.
In this misguided attempt to entertain the "old enough to drive, too young to get into an R-rated movie" masses, this PG-approved mess gives us a decidedly uninteresting pair of recent high school grads -- blonde Debbie (Kathleen Cody, Snowball Express) and bespectacled Karen (Dianne Hull, The Onion Field) -- who hit the road in mom and dad's car for a vacation at mom and dad's beach house. Even though the radio station breaks into its generic music program every 20 seconds to announce that a serial killer has left yet another body someplace or another near by, our empty-headed lovelies insist on picking up "cute" hitchhikers.
They finally hit the crackpot -- er, jackpot -- with Will (Michael Ontkean, Slap Shot), a deranged (what else?) Vietnam vet with a winning smile and a waxed chest. We know that Will's a loon: We've already seen him almost kill two guys in an otherwise benign bar fight, plus he keeps having wavy-screened flashbacks to his army days, especially his sessions with a military shrink. Our Dumb Doras figure this out eventually -- he does pull a gun on them when they wake him unexpectedly -- but they want to sleep with him anyway. The power of a waxed chest...
Will is headed for a commune conveniently located within spitting distance from where the girls are staying. The commune is run by an older, bearded guy named John (Ralph Waite, The Waltons) and includes the usual assortment of peace, love, and understanding hippie types, though one member -- The Maker, they call him -- seems a bit too Haight even for this Ashbury.
While the girls coo over the unhinged Will like he's a Jonas brother, the serial killings continue unabated -- offscreen, but thanks for the updates, Radio Guy! -- and the commune people become more annoying. Slowly, dense Debbie and klutzy Karen come to realize what the audience has been feeling since the opening credits: something's not right here, and they just want to go home.
Something is definitely not "right" with Girls on the Road, and you couldn't blame the average drive-in viewer for taking off with the speaker still clamped to the window to escape this dull, annoying thing. It's a film that takes the least interesting parts of a whole bunch of genres and mixes them together to make the least interesting drive-in movie I've ever seen. It's a road movie, only the characters get to where they're headed after 20 minutes. It's a beach movie, only no one puts on a bathing suit. It's a psycho killer movie, only no one gets psycho killed (onscreen, at any rate). It's a summer sex movie, only no one has sex. It's a youth high jinx movie, only these youths have no jinx to hi. It has hippies who aren't hip living in a free-love commune where they all keep their clothes on, and they're still subject to withering moralizing by the crazy-as-drying-paint soldier and the nubile yet priggish teens.
There's all kinds of stuff floating around, but nothing ever coalesces; instead, we get scenes where people talk about things like serial killings and sex with an unstable army vet, but no one actually does anything about it. It's less like a film than an early incarnation of Twitter. There's a yawn-inducing "big reveal" -- I'm looking at you, Psycho Killer person! -- and an ending that looks so tacked on, it seems the production just ran out of film. If all drive-in movies were like Girls on the Road, people in the '70s would have spent more time walking.
Since the disc is from Scorpion, the presentation is far better than film merits. There's a solid anamorphic image and acceptable mono sound. There are also some nice extras, including a funny interview with one of the writers -- whose opinion of the film is no better than mine -- and a tribute to the director, who died unexpectedly just a couple of years after making Girls on the Road. I wish Scorpion had given us more of the writer's interview; it seems the film's production history was pretty tumultuous, but the interview here seems to skip around some, so we don't get as clear a picture as we could. There's also an alternate title sequence -- oddly, the title sequence shown during the film calls it Hot Summer Week; Girls on the Road is the alternate title, also the one that turns up in the pedestrian "original trailer."
The kind of film that gives "drive-in fare" a bad name, Girls on the Road is guilty of third-degree tedium. Don't drive or operate heavy machinery after watching this one.

Highway Bill: Another Spending Test for the GOP
Chris Edwards testified yesterday to the Senate Finance Committee regarding federal highway and transit funding. Some thoughts.
All Aboard the Privatization Train
With the expiration of the current federal highway bill in a few months, the infrastructure issue is heating up. Newspapers are ginning up interest with stories about deficient and falling down bridges.
WaPo's Bridge Story Is Structurally Deficient
Oh dear, yet another scare story about falling-down bridges. A Washington Post headline today in the hardcopy is "63,000 Bridges Structurally Deficient, U.S. Says."
New York Times Op-ed on Infrastructure
My op-ed in today's New York Times has prompted numerous critical comments on theNYT website. Let me address some of them.
Lessons from the New Transit Data
The American Public Transportation Association (APTA) argues that a 0.7 percent increase in annual transit ridership in 2013 is proof that Americans want more "investments" in transit–by which the group means more federal funding. However, a close look at the actual data reveals something entirely different.
Another Cost Overrun on Government Infrastructure
From the Wall Street Journal, here's the latest evidence on quality and efficiency in government infrastructure spending
Governor Christie Scandal: Let's Privatize the Port Authority
USA Today reported: "The Port Authority, which operates the bridge at the heart of a New Jersey scandal, says a key appointee of Gov. Chris Christie directed the controversial closing of access lanes to the George Washington Bridge … David Wildstein and Bill Baroni, who were appointed to the Port Authority by Christie, have resigned in the wake of the scandal."
New Study on Air Traffic Control Reform
Robert Poole is one the nation's top experts on privatization and transportation policy reform. He has a great new Hudson Institute study on problems with our air traffic control (ATC) system and ideas for restructuring it. The nation's ATC system is operated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
Mike Pence Ran off Rails in Bailing out Amtrak Line
For more than 40 years, Amtrak has relied on $1 billion or more a year in taxpayer handouts to run slow, and often late, passenger trains. Indeed, the man considered to be the "father" of Amtrak, Anthony Haswell, recently said that he is "personally embarrassed over what I helped to create."
Thanksgiving Travels Don't Have to be a Hassle
To join their families for Thanksgiving this week, millions of Americans will face the drudgery of airline travel. Airports are crowded, flights are often delayed, and many travelers will get stuck in long security lines. It may get worse: a new study by the U.S. Travel Association (USTA) says that American aviation may be flying into a storm of "chronic congestion, delays, and frustration."

NEW YORK -- A Russian hockey club filed an antitrust lawsuit Thursday against the NHL and the Pittsburgh Penguins, saying rookie Evgeni Malkin shouldn't be allowed to play in the league because he remains under contract in his native country.
The Metallurg Magnitogorsk hockey club, which filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, also demanded unspecified damages from the NHL and the Penguins over Malkin's deal to jump teams this summer.
NHL spokesman Frank Brown said he hadn't seen a copy of the complaint and couldn't comment. Penguins spokesman Tom McMillan said the team hadn't received the lawsuit and doesn't comment on litigation.
Malkin, 20, left the Russian Super League team during August's training camp in Helsinki, Finland, slipping quietly into the United States to begin his NHL career. In his debut Wednesday night, Malkin scored the Penguins' goal in a 2-1 loss to New Jersey.
Malkin was under contract for another year in Russia. The NHL had previously said the league believes any player should have the
right to choose where he wants to play as long as he is legally free to do so.
After Malkin left his Russian team, he cited a Russian labor law that permits an employee to leave a job by giving two weeks notice.
The lawsuit, filed after a Russian arbitration panel ruled that Malkin is still under contract to Magnitogorsk, said the signing of Malkin to an NHL contract was a "blatant and deliberate tampering and interference" with the Russian team's existing agreement.
In the lawsuit, the team said the Penguins knew or should have known that Malkin was under contract to a Russian team when they signed him. The lawsuit said the NHL and the Penguins violated antitrust laws by conspiring in a group boycott and refusing to deal with Russian hockey clubs regarding player transfers.
Malkin and Magnitogorsk signed a one-year contract Aug. 7 that called for Malkin to receive $3.45 million, according to the lawsuit.
It said the contract was negotiated and signed in the presence of Malkin's Russian agent and his parents, and provided favorable terms allowing him to become a free agent a year sooner than an earlier contract.
Malkin, the No. 2 pick in the 2004 NHL draft, missed the early part of the season after dislocating a shoulder in his first preseason game.
The lawsuit said the NHL and its clubs have "decided to play hardball" with Russian hockey clubs to punish them for the Russian Ice Hockey Federation's rejection of a new general agreement governing the transfer of foreign players to the NHL.
It said the NHL told its clubs Aug. 2 that they were free to sign NHL contracts with Russian hockey players already under contract with Russian hockey clubs if the players secured releases according to Russian labor law.

DALLAS (AP) - Courthouse renovation projects are taking shape across North Texas as the need for government office space grows and the Texas Historical Commission prepares to distribute $50 million for courthouse restorations around the state.
Ellis County has moved out of its courthouse in downtown Waxahachie to continue an estimated $9 million renovation of the 105-year-old building.
The city of McKinney wants to bring government offices back to a former Collin County courthouse in restoring the building that has stood vacant in the city's downtown square for 20 years. The projected cost is $5.7 million.
Kaufman County commissioners are preparing to modernize their courthouse. A proposed $9 million expansion and renovation would give the 1956 building a vintage look.
Buildings must be at least 50 years old to qualify for the historical commission funds. That eliminates Kaufman County, which plans to borrow the money. But Ellis and Collin counties both hope to land as much as $4 million each to supplement bonds approved by voters.
Ellis County has replaced the building's slate tile roof and will replace or reface the sandstone where necessary in restoring one of the 62 19th-century courthouses in use statewide.
"The building was just crumbling," Ellis County Judge Al Cornelius told The Dallas Morning News.
"We have a duty to maintain part of our heritage here and remember where we came from," he said.
McKinney City Council has endorsed a master plan that must gain state historical commission approval before an application can be submitted for state restoration money. County commissioners will consider the matter Monday.
In the case of Kaufman County, commissioners voted in 1954 to go modern and replace their 1887 building with a brick, box-shaped structure. Now that building has become worn and cramped, and the county is looking toward giving it a historic look.
"Everyone I know wants to make it look like something other than a white box," County Commissioner Rhea Fox said. "If you're going to spend $9 million, it ought to be something Kaufman County can be proud of."
The state historical commission, however, has urged the county to allow it to have a role in the project.
"There are ways for a county to address its space needs without gutting a building and putting up a pseudo-historical one," said Stan Graves, architecture division director for the state commission.
