...Crimson knew it would have to play a physical game, and it did, picking up four yellow cards in the process...
Critics counter that there must be other, less intrusive ways to make intersections safer, such as lengthening the yellow light or adding turn lanes. "I object to this fixation we have with cameras and electronically gathered information," says Barr. "It places too much confidence in technology." That confidence, as Washington residents have learned, can be misplaced. The city removed one camera last May that had generated more than 19,000 tickets at a particularly confusing intersection.

Shades of yellow underpainting shine through the red pigments in spots, making his canvasses positively luminous. The Cathedral of Padre Pio rejected Richter’s works as being too abstract, but the Cathedral’s loss is Venice’s gain. When viewed in tandem with Titian’s Assunta?...
