M. Night's Glass already had a lot of hype for being the most anticipated movie of January and the popularity is proving it. Now in its second weekend, the thriller has made another $19 million and has shown itself to be a box office success even in the colder months of January where it's not exactly pulling in the largest of box office numbers. Not exactly a twist from a director known for twists.
The premieres for the weekend didn't fare well at all. The Kid Who Would Be King, Joe Cornish's kid-oriented fantasy of modern knights and demons, debuted only at #4 with a weekend gross of $7.2 million, lagging not far behind Aquaman which made $7.3 million. It seems strange that family entertainment wouldn't be a bigger hit in a month with little of that. But then again, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is still in theaters and still doing well at #5, proving to have the legs to stick around into February as it continues to win awards for being a groundbreaking animated film.
Also debuting lower is Serenity, a new drama by Steven Knight. This one doesn't seem as surprising given both the lack of promotion for the picture and the abysmally negative critic reviews, declaring the film as an early front-runner for the worst of the year. The movie only came in at #8 for the weekend with a gross of $4.8 million.
Worth noting is that Dragon Ball Super: Broly is still hanging in the top 10, latching onto the #10 spot with a gross of $3.6 million. Though not the biggest box office compared to its competition, it's a big success for FUNimation pushing anime into theaters given they've yet to have as big of a release as this one and for such a long time. Most anime they release in theaters are only present for a weekend if that and tend not to crack the top 10 as often. Dragon Ball Super has become the exception and may lead to more anime screenings to larger theater counts in the future.

Electric trucks in action – MAN and CNL begin practical testing
Joachim Drees, chairman of the Executive Board of Man Truck & Bus AG, and his board colleague Dr. Ulrich Dilling, responsible for production and logistics, handed over the first electric trucks of the type MAN eTGM at the Steyr production site at nine member companies of the Austrian Council for Sustainable Logistics (CNL)

MAN Truck & Bus is handing over fully electric trucks to nine partner companies from the Austrian Council for Sustainable Logistics (CNL).
The test vehicles based on MAN TGMs are designed specifically for each customer and prepared for authentic practical testing. During the test drives, which will last for several months, the participating companies will use the vehicles in regular logistics operations.
MAN will incorporate the experience gained together with the CNL's partner companies into the continuing mass development of its electric trucks.
Joachim Drees, chairman of the Executive Board of Man Truck & Bus AG, and his board colleague Dr. Ulrich Dilling, responsible for production and logistics, handed over the first electric trucks of the type MAN eTGM at the Steyr production site at nine member companies of the Austrian Council for Sustainable Logistics (CNL). This also represented the starting point for practical tests, which will begin with immediate effect and under authentic conditions in day-to-day logistics and transport activities at CNL member companies Gebrüder Weiss, HOFER, Magna Steyr, METRO, Quehenberger Logistics, REWE, Schachinger Logistik, SPAR and Stieglbrauerei. In the coming months, the companies will thoroughly test the vehicles under authentic conditions in their specific logistic and transport everyday life
The official hand-over sees MAN Truck & Bus reach another milestone on the road to electrified urban distribution transport – a mission in which zero-emissions and low levels of noise pollution play an increasingly important role. The CNL members' vehicle tests in routine logistics services underscore MAN's approach of working together with customers and taking their practical experience on board to develop sustainable logistics solutions.
During the hand-over ceremony, which was held right in the midst of the action at the Steyr plant's electric truck production facilities, Joachim Drees was evidently impressed by the joint project with the CNL, stating: "The time has come, the first man electric trucks are on the road – in everyday use by our customers. From now on, they deliver, for example, drinks, food, or vehicle parts – local emissions-free and almost silent. The handover of the first eTrucks is not only a special moment for the cooperation project with the CNL, but also for the 260-year company history of MAN."
From the Council for Sustainable Logistics' point of view, its creator and spokesman Max Schachinger expressed praise for the project: "We know and experience directly the development of climate and environment and we want all the more livable cities. Beyond the steps of each individual, we connect to an even greater whole and put the first E-trucks together with MAN in action: The end of the fossil age is ushered in and the future of sustainable mobility begins today."
The CNL is a unique initiative in European terms: Eighteen of Austria's largest retail, logistics and manufacturing firms have united to take steps forward in the area of sustainable logistics. The CNL is affiliated with the Centre for Global Change and Sustainability at Vienna University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences.
The field tests are carried out in the "Megawatt" project and supported by the Austrian Federal Government's Climate and Energy Fund as part of its "Lighthouses of Electric Mobility" program with 3,012,648 euros.
MAN electric trucks soon set to hit the road in Austria
On 13 September 2018, MAN started the vehicles' practical testing phase as part of a project partnership with Austrian business consortium CNL.
At the kick-off event at the MAN plant in Steyr, representatives from participating logistics companies received nine test vehicles from MAN Truck & Bus Chief Executive Officer Joachim Drees and Dr Ulrich Dilling, the Executive Board member for Production and Logistics.
Council for Sustainable Logistics member companies will test out fully electric 26-tonne MAN TGMs in regular logistics operations over several months.
The first nine MAN electric trucks were handed over to member companies of Austria's Council for Sustainable Logistics (CNL) on 13 September at MAN Truck & Bus' plant in Steyr, Austria. Quite aptly, the event saw this development partnership set off at full throttle – a partnership which, to date, has been unique in the commercial vehicle sector.
The advantages of fully electric-powered trucks are as clear as day: New solutions for freight transport and logistics are needed, due to increasingly densely populated urban areas with growing traffic and congestion, as well as more restrictive environmental protection laws and the rising tide of public consciousness in favour of strengthening sustainability in all areas. It is on short-haul routes in urban traffic and distribution transport contexts that electrified commercial vehicles can be the solution to help reduce CO2 and nitrogen oxide emissions to a minimum – or to avoid them entirely on a local scale. In these circumstances, they run incredibly quietly, making them useful for night-time and early-morning deliveries.
MAN has developed the first nine electric trucks with a focus on the types of applications that are sought-after among the nine CNL companies. The vehicles were made at the MAN plant in Steyr, the site at which the conventional MAN TGM and TGL truck series are produced. In addition, the facility is home to the Truck Modification Centre, which specialises in the manufacture of small batches and single part production. During the hand-over, Dr Ulrich Dilling, MAN Truck & Bus Executive Board member for Production and Logistics, highlighted the location's importance, stating: "The Steyr plant plays a key role in the development of our electric trucks. Our employees have been trained in high-voltage systems, the necessary equipment has been procured and safety zones have been set up. We have also developed the tailored maintenance concept for electric trucks here, as well as training service personnel from Vienna, Graz and Salzburg. With these measures in place, we are making our Steyr site electric-ready."
The new electric vehicles include four 6x2 chassis with refrigeration units and liftgates for use at HOFER, METRO, REWE and SPAR; three 6x2 chassis with swap bodies for haulage firms Gebrüder Weiss, Quehenberger Logistics and Schachinger Logistik; one 6x2 chassis for beverage transport at the Stieglbrauerei; and one 4x2 semitrailer tractor for plant logistics applications at Magna Steyr. As a result, the vehicles form a representative cross-section of the most common distribution transport tasks in urban logistics.
The MAN electric trucks' chassis are based on the MAN TGM. The electric motor, located in the centre of the frame, outputs 264 kW and delivers up to 3,100 Nm of torque to the drive wheels without a manually operated gearbox. The lithium-ion batteries are fitted beneath the cab on the side of the frame. In the 26-tonne solo chassis version (MAN TGM 6X2-4 LL), a total of 12 batteries are installed; these allow for a range of up to 200 kilometres (more than 120 miles), depending on the body configuration, type of use and driving profile. Up to eight battery packs can be used in the four-wheel semitrailer tractor version (MAN TGM 4X2 LL) – consequently, the range can reach as high as 130 kilometres (around 80 miles), depending on the usage profile and type of semitrailer.
All the vehicles also have air suspension on the front and rear axles, guaranteeing adaptability to every loading scenario in urban areas. Comfort-enhancing features and vehicle functions like the air-conditioning system, steering and air compressor are also electric-powered. The same is true for body functions such as the liftgates and cooling units. Brake energy is recovered (what is called "recuperation"): when decelerating the vehicle's motive energy is converted into electrical energy and fed back into the battery. A display in the cockpit informs the driver about the batteries' current energy level. It is possible to charge the batteries with either AC (22 or 44 kW) or DC (150 kW). The charging interfaces are CCS Standard Type 2-compliant. Sensible and efficient vehicle routing and usage planning is crucial for the choice of charging infrastructure.
As far as MAN is concerned, it was a logical step as part of the vehicles' development to hand over the eTGMs to the CNL partner companies for customer testing purposes. The aim is to acquire a wide array of experience, along with new ideas for continuous development and optimisation, directly from the customers' practical day-to-day operations.
The holistic approach is also reflected in another building block of the MAN electric vehicle concept. As they navigate the path from "low emissions" to "no emissions", fleet operators face a range of challenges that go beyond the vehicle itself. To provide them with the best possible support in this regard, MAN Truck & Bus has called upon MAN Transport Solutions, its team of consultants specialising in individual transport solutions that offer maximum cost efficiency. Thanks to their wealth of experience, the qualified consultants can also cover issues relating to infrastructure and energy consumption, as well as maintenance concepts and fleet design. Customers can select whichever components of the range of services they need, as the Transport Solutions specialists provide personalised advice and consultancy. For example, they can use simulation tools to assist them with route planning or with depot design and layout. The consultants can draw on their expertise to issue advice across the full spectrum of possible uses ranging from operation and infrastructure to servicing and maintenance. This includes traffic planning with vehicle scheduling and route planning, management of batteries and charging, analyses and optimization of energy requirements, together with maintenance plans and depot design and training.
The joint tests with the member companies of the Council for Sustainable Logistics are part of MAN's eMobility Road Map, which also includes plans to present a prototype bus version of a battery-electric vehicle (BEV) in late 2018. Its market entry will follow in 2020, with an incremental increase in output over time. The practical tests conducted by the CNL companies, which are now underway, will form the basis for future electric truck projects and the resulting mass production development. In pursuing its eMobility Roadmap, MAN benefits from its position as part of the Volkswagen Group, from the synergies within the Group and from the dynamism of its passenger car division.

Embattled West University City Councilwoman Kellye Burke is standing firm Friday that she "did not commit any type of crime" in an incident involving her confronting a young female supporter of President Trump and other teens whose age she now says she "misjudged." Meantime, the story has gone viral in headlines around the world — from Fox News to the New York Daily News to the London-based Daily Mail, while talk of a recall grows in West U.
News and partisan websites across the U.S. and the globe are carrying accounts of the incident last Saturday outside Tiny's Milk & Cookies, 3636 Rice Blvd. Burke, 50, has been charged with disorderly conduct for allegedly launching a verbal attack on the four girls buying cookies, apparently triggered by one of the girls wearing a Trump T-shirt.
Despite the offense being a Class C misdemeanor and her repeated claims that she was not guilty of any crime, Burke has retained high-profile criminal defense attorney Rusty Hardin.
She reportedly yelled, "grab her by the p#$$y, girls!" (referring to an audio recording of Trump, made by the TV show Access Hollywood in 2005) and "MAGA, MAGA!" (Make America Great Again, Trump's campaign slogan).
Parents told authorities and Channel 2 News that the girls felt threatened by Burke's behavior. If convicted, she could draw a $500 fine.
Politically, Burke is facing the ire of West U residents — with some exploring options for and demanding a recall — while attracting support from anti-Trump factions, including gun control advocates, based on her visible involvement with the group, Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America.
City Manager Chris Peifer told InstantNewsWestU.com Friday afternoon that four residents had requested information about options to remove Burke from office.
Section 4.07 of the West U city code stipulates that a petition containing the signatures of 15 percent of all qualified voters in West U — currently 1,656 of 11,040 — "demanding the removal of the elected officer" would direct the City Council to hold a recall election. The rest of the code describes that a majority of votes would be enough to recall the officeholder, and would trigger a special election to fill the vacancy.
A 12-year resident of West U, the business consultant was elected to council in 2017. She drew 1,264 votes, the second-highest total in a field of eight candidates.
