When I sat down to watch the movie  Green Book , I was expecting to get a visual education on the historical use of  The Negro Motorist Green Book  by Victor Hugo Green. Green published the guidebook from 1936 to 1966 for black travelers in the Jim Crow era whose trips took them through areas that were openly racist and discriminatory toward black people. This film was not about the actual  Green Book . In fact, the actual  Green Book  is more of a day player or under-fiver in this film. The film  Green Book  is a dramatization of the real-life friendship formed between Dr. Don Shirley—a Jamaican-American world-class pianist—and Tony Vallelonga, an Italian-American night club bouncer from New York City who Shirley hires to be his personal driver and bodyguard during a concert tour that takes him through the Jim Crow South. In her review for Shadow and Act , writer Brooke Obie calls the film a “poorly titled white savior film” that centers ...

There’s not a team in college basketball that can be reasonably expected to beat Duke—if it happens, it will come by shock or not at all—but coming into Tuesday’s Maui Invitational semifinal there was some sense that eighth-ranked Auburn had a puncher’s chance. The Tigers feature an athletic, tough cast, blitz opponents with energy and love to bomb from outside. It’s no use for anyone running with Duke, but if Auburn could scramble effectively in transition and make enough timely shots, there was a pathway to keeping it close. To nobody’s surprise, that was decidedly not how this thing went down. The Blue Devils took a punch or two, and it wasn’t all smooth sailing, but an impressive, unified showing (from a team driven by freshmen, no less) made a world of difference in a 78–72 victory. Whenever Auburn strung together positive plays, there was an adequate answer, and though an absurd free throw discrepancy (they shot just nine to their opponent’s 32) was a major factor, Duke’s co...

Disney’s follow-up to its wonderful 2012 animated film  Wreck-It Ralph  is as gleefully self-aware as its predecessor. Once again, Ralph (voiced by John C. Reilly), Vanellope (Sarah Silverman), and their video game character buddies find themselves embarking on a new adventure. But this time, their purview has changed — after finding a wifi router in their arcade, no longer are they journeying through video games, but through the whole internet. Just as the first film effectively captured the energy and fun of video games,  Ralph Breaks the Internet  exhibits an uncanny sense for what powers the internet itself — everything from search engines to comments sections to pop-up ads to social media. But it’s especially deft at skewering Disney and its many franchise properties, from  Star Wars  to the Disney Princesses. It’s a truly funny romp with a heart, and something to offer everyone in the audience.

Overview Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria normally live in the intestines of healthy people and animals. Most varieties of E. coli are harmless or cause relatively brief diarrhea. But a few particularly nasty strains, such as E. coli O157:H7, can cause severe abdominal cramps, bloody diarrhea and vomiting. You may be exposed to E. coli from contaminated water or food — especially raw vegetables and undercooked ground beef. Healthy adults usually recover from infection with E. coli O157:H7 within a week, but young children and older adults have a greater risk of developing a life-threatening form of kidney failure called hemolytic uremic syndrome. Symptoms Signs and symptoms of E. coli O157:H7 infection typically begin three or four days after exposure to the bacteria, though you may become ill as soon as one day after to more than a week later. Signs and symptoms include: Diarrhea, which may range from mild and watery to severe and bloody Abdominal cramping, pain o...

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned US consumers on Tuesday to not eat  romaine lettuce,  as it may be contaminated with E. coli. Thirty-two people, including 13 who have been hospitalized, have been infected with the outbreak strain in 11 states, according to the CDC. One of the hospitalized people developed hemolytic uremic syndrome, a potentially life-threatening form   of kidney failure. No deaths have been reported. People have become sick in California, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and Wisconsin. The Public Health Agency of Canada has identified an additional 18 people who have become sick with the same strain of E. coli in Ontario and Quebec. The US Food and Drug Administration, which is also investigating the outbreak, cautions that if you have any romaine lettuce at home, you should throw it away, even if you have eaten some and did not get sick.   FD...

The final game of the Week 11 NFL schedule features a clash of Super Bowl contenders when the  Kansas City Chiefs  meet the  Los Angeles Rams  on Monday Night Football at 8:15 p.m. ET. Both teams are 9-1, with the lone loss coming to a fellow division leader: Kansas City lost by three at New England, while Los Angeles fell in a shootout at New Orleans. Monday Night Football takes place in LA this week after the game was moved from Estadio Azteca in Mexico City because of concerns about poor field conditions. Los Angeles is a three-point favorite in the latest Rams vs. Chiefs odds, while the over-under for total points scored has climbed to 63, believed to be the highest for a regular-season game in at least 30 years.

Ivanka Trump last year used a personal email account to discuss or relay official White House business, according to emails released by a nonpartisan watchdog group. The Washington Post reported Monday the White House conducted an investigation into Trump's email usage and that she used her personal email address for much of 2017. According to emails released by the watchdog group, American Oversight , Trump used her personal account to email Cabinet officials, White House aides and assistants. The Presidential Records Act requires all official White House communications and records be preserved. Austin Evers, the executive director of American Oversight, said in a  statement , "The president's family is not above the law, and there are serious questions that Congress should immediately investigate. Did Ivanka Trump turn over all of her emails for preservation as required by law? Was she sending classified information over a private system?" The White Hous...

A police officer, a doctor and a pharmaceutical assistant were killed after a Monday afternoon shooting at Chicago's Mercy Hospital, Mayor Rahm Emanuel said. The shooting was a domestic incident, Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie T. Johnson said. The gunman's first victim was a woman he had previously had a relationship with, Johnson said. The gunman also died, though it is unclear whether he died from police gunfire or a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Johnson said. Chicago Police identified the deceased officer as Samuel Jimenez, a father of three. He joined the force in February 2017 and recently completed probationary training, becoming a full-fledged officer, Johnson said. A procession was held for him Monday night How the shooting unfolded Around 3:30 p.m., the gunman approached one of the female victims -- a hospital employee -- in the parking lot, Johnson said. As they started arguing, a friend of the woman attempted to intervene. The gunman lifted hi...

There sa May has renewed her efforts to sell her draft Brexit withdrawal agreement - arguing it will stop EU migrants "jumping the queue". She said migration would become skills-based, with Europeans no longer prioritised over "engineers from Sydney or software developers from Delhi". The PM also insisted to business leaders at the CBI that the withdrawal deal had been "agreed in full". Nicola Sturgeon said the PM's remarks on EU free movement were "offensive". The Scottish First Minister said for the prime minister to use such language to describe reciprocal arrangements entered into freely by the UK - allowing EU nationals to live and work in the UK and vice-versa - was "really disgraceful". Meanwhile, the DUP, which is opposed to the Irish border backstop proposal in the withdrawal agreement, abstained on amendments to the Finance Bill in the Commons on Monday evening. It also supported one amendment proposed by th...

The DUP has warned Theresa May to "keep her side of the bargain" on Brexit after the party's 10 MPs withheld their support in votes on Budget measures. Mrs May insists her draft EU withdrawal deal, which MPs will vote on next month, is the right one. She remains under pressure from Tory MPs to seek concessions from the EU. European leaders are set to sign off the draft withdrawal agreement and framework of future relations in Brussels next month. Mrs May's new-look cabinet meets on Tuesday for the first time since a number of ministers resigned last week, saying they could not support the deal. But the prime minister continues to be the target of backbench critics within her party, who appear intent on forcing a confidence vote. A source has told the BBC they have not given up hope of reaching the required threshold of 48 letters from MPs. Not everyone who had pledged to send in letters has done so, the source said. As of Monday evening, only 26 had pu...

The White House on Monday said that CNN correspondent Jim Acosta's press pass has been "restored," bowing to days of pressure and a federal lawsuit against the administration. In response, CNN said in a court filing that it has dropped the ongoing litigation over Acosta's access to the White House. "Today the White House fully restored Jim Acosta's press pass. As a result, our lawsuit is no longer necessary," the network said in a statement. "We look forward to continuing to cover the White House." Monday afternoon's announcement, what the White House called a "final determination," was an abrupt shift from the administration's earlier positions. Nearly two weeks ago the Trump administration took the unprecedented step of  suspending Acosta's access to the White House  after he had a contentious exchange with President Trump at a press conference. When a  federal judge sided with CNN  and issued a tempor...
