The Secret Garden
How I loved reading Frances Hodgson Burnett's book The Secret Garden when I was growing up. I couldn't help but be reminded of it over the past weekend. Baby and I went to my hometown in NH to celebrate the wedding of my childhood friend. At the after-after-after party the next morning, we were invited for Bloody Mary's where we beheld a breathless, wondrous garden that was exuberantly, extraordinarily tended by our friends' neighbor next door. Once invited over, Baby and I went hog wild, plundering the wealth of vegetables and set to thinking immediately just what we would do with all of our shameless bounty! We knew we had to work quickly while everything was achingly fragrant and fresh. Relying mostly on our imagination, this is what we chopped, grilled, juiced and pureed.
Rosie Daley's Grilled Vegetables
This recipe was a perfect foil as it utilized so much of our finds, including sliced yellow squash, eggplant, red onions, and a chiffonade of basil.
Zucchini Bread Pudding with Whiskey Sauce
I love this zucchini bread recipe but I didn't use enough butter or flour or both in the pan and some of it stuck, so to make up for the mess I cut the bread up into cubes and covered it with the whiskey sauce so it would appear it was all quite deliberate and intentional. The friends and co-workers that we shared it with were none the wiser. I didn't have any walnuts as the recipe suggests, so I added some chocolate morsels to give it some body--it turned out to be a little sweet, so I appropriated Jamie Shannon's (Commander's Kitchen in New Orleans) whiskey sauce recipe on epicurious.com for balance. He uses 1 1/2 cups heavy cream, 2 teaspoons cornstarch, 2 tablespoons cold water with 1/3 cup sugar and 1/3 cup bourbon. As he writes, "bring the cream to a boil, combine the cornstarch and water, and add the mixture to the boiling cream, stirring constantly. Return to a boil, then reduce the heat and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds, being careful not to burn the mixture. Add the sugar and bourbon, and stir. Let cool to room temperature." Then pour it over your pudding!
We juiced a bunch of cucumbers for improvised soda which is perfect to serve with Hendrick's gin on the rocks. Boil a 2:1 ratio of water and sugar until combined. While this is happening, juice 4 or 5 kirby cukes or 2 medium sized cucumbers to yield about 3 cups of juice to make several cocktails. Each cocktail should have a decent amount of gin suited to your liking, with a TB of the simple syrup, 2 or 3 TBS of cucumber juice, a brisk spray of lemon or lime and a liberal splash of soda water. The simpler version is to just order a case of Mr. Q. Cumber's cucumber soda from thirstmonger.com and mix one 7 oz. bottle with a scant cup of Hendrick's gin; either way, the drink should be stirred with fervor and served on the rocks and or gently shaken and served straight up to slake the summer thirsts of two people.
For our Eggplant Pizzas courtesy of the brand new iPhone app trufflehead.com! While we sauteed a chopped onion, 2 crushed garlic cloves and a small green pepper in a little olive oil, we pureed ten cherry tomatoes, two beefsteaks, and a single yellow gem that were all bursting at the seams for sauce with a slice of a small hot red pepper for some heat. The yield was about 6 cups and we cooked down to 3 cups in a reduction pan and added a thread of chopped basil upon finishing before composing the eggplant dish with our sauce that tasted ripe off the vine. And did I mention we fried slices of a rotund green tomato (with outrageous orangey yellow innards) and poured the sauce over the beauty as well for good measure?
Purple Cabbage Salad
To pair with a Puerto Rican roasted pork (Pernil al Horno) that we were planning, we thinly sliced a beautiful head of cabbage, and tossed it with a simple dressing based on a Michael Lomonaco recipe: 1/4 cup red wine vinegar, 1 TB Dijon mustard, 1 TB sugar, several chopped shallots, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, 1/4 cup each (or so!) of blood orange olive oil and chipotle olive oil. Process all of the ingredients except for the oils, which are to be slowly drizzled in at the end until combined and silken. The dressing yields 1 cup.
Who says it ain't easy being green?

Mage: The Hero Denied 10
So I might have sold Isis short last issue.
For those of you who are new to the Mage series … honestly, this is a terrible place to jump on. We’re two thirds of the way through the final volume of the trilogy. Stop reading and go pick up Mage: The Hero Discovered. You’ll be a better person for it.
Anyway, during my critique of last issue, I was a bit harsh towards Isis, Magda’s sister. Basically, Kevin informed her that Magda had been kidnapped and that he needed someone to watch his daughter, Miranda, while he went to rescue her. At the time, not only doesn’t Isis offer to help Kevin rescue her sister, but she can’t even be bothered to watch Miranda, meaning that she’d rather have her niece face off against a pack of demons than take time from her spell transcription work to babysit.
However, in issue #10, we see that Kevin has stopped leaving Miranda in the car while he goes adventuring. Instead, he’s bringing her along to help him suss out magical threats. Sure, he’s still the one doing the fighting, but Miranda is definitely helping out. So I’m wondering if Isis deliberately turned Miranda away, knowing that she would be able to help Kevin. As we’ve seen in past volumes, Kevin isn’t always that good at teamwork. I guess when you’re nigh-invulnerable, you might see other people as little more than targets that need protecting. And we’ve already seen how much Kevin is surprised by his daughter’s resourcefulness, so there’s probably an issue of him not believing that she could help him. So Kevin would never choose to take his daughter with him on an adventure, but if he had no choice …
This issue opens with Magda trying and failing to contact help from outside her penthouse prison. Meanwhile, Hugo is staring into a bottomless pit that lies beyond the door to that prison. We’ve actually seen this same setup in the Styx Casino way back in Hero Discovered. But unlike Kevin, Hugo has no fear of heights, so he spends a lot more time staring into the abyss, eventually noticing that there are vague creatures flittering around in it.
Switching scenes, we find that Kevin and Miranda are exploring a cave by a beach. Curiously, Miranda tells her father that she doesn’t sense anything magical, despite the glowing piece of driftwood in his hand. Honestly, I’ve never been clear on what she means by “patterens,” but it apparently isn’t a shorthand word for magic in general. There’s a brief fight between Kevin and a sea monster (a “merrow”) that ends with him retrieving a magic coat that the creature used to assume human form, similar to the story of selkies shedding their seal skins to assume human form. Handing Miranda the coat, we see that it allows her to change her appearance to look like anything (including inanimate objects). This way, Miranda will be able to follow her father on his adventure, while also having the option of hiding in plain sight if things get too rough.
Meanwhile, Karol Gracklethorn is checking in on her mother, the Umbra Sprite, finding that she’s feeling much better, having resumed a more or less human form again. Again, Karol is more worried about Kevin Matchstick than any of her sisters and the Umbra Sprite confides in her that things are even worse for them than she suspected. While Karol is frantically trying to come up with a plan to prevent Kevin from finding them, the Umbra Sprite tells her that he must find them, that there must be a fight, and that “some will surely perish.” She then tells of a prophecy concerning three great powers: Kevin is one and the Fisher King is another. The third one is a mystery to her, although we’re clearly meant to infer that it’s the missing World Mage.
Elsewhere in the narrative, Magda has decided to summon one of the fairy folk that Hugo saw floating in the bottomless pit. With her cat dead, she needs a new familiar. Once a little goblin-thing shows up, she turns it into a purple winged cat and that’s the end of the issue.
The story’s picking up its pace as various players begin implementing their plans. Magda is taking steps to escape, Kevin is taking steps to find his wife and son, and the Umbra Sprite is taking steps to draw Kevin to her. So now we’re deep into fan theory territory, as all of the moving parts of the story seem unable to come together into one cohesive whole. But I have faith in Matt Wagner’s ability to pull it off.
So how do the pieces come together? It seems unlikely that both the World Mage AND the Fisher King will be suddenly introduced within the last five issues of the final series. So we are left to assume that they will be revealed as other characters whom we’ve already been following up until now. The Fisher King is supposed to be physically disabled in some way and that greatly limits candidates; really, none of the main characters have demonstrated any physical disability. As for the World Mage, he was quite straightforward about his identity in the first two volumes, so it would be somewhat against character for him to suddenly hide his identity from Kevin at this late date. Since the Fisher King, the Mage, and Kevin are supposed to come together, it would seem that the Umbra Sprite’s plan is to lure Kevin to her in the hopes that the other two will be similarly drawn.
One plot thread that I think will get further developed is the homeless shelter that the Gracklethorns established in order to search for the Fisher King. We’ve seen too many references to the shelter for it to turn out as nothing more than a dead end. Maybe the Mage has somehow infiltrated the shelter under some disguise. Since the Umbra Sprite has never personally visited the shelter (so far as we’ve seen), there’s no danger of her discovering him. Working at the shelter would allow the Mage to search for the Fisher King as well. In fact, the Gracklethorns’ failure to find the Fisher King might be the direct result of the Mage’s interference.
No further mention of Hugo eating fairy food or what exactly Magda’s Camelot pendant will do. But there are enough mysteries to easily fill another five issues of this series. I’ll keep you updated. And if you want another take on this series, be sure to check out the fantastic Hero Described podcast series.
Mage: The Hero Denied #10 is available in print at all decent comic shops, as are back issues to volumes one and two of the series. If you prefer getting your comics digitally, then check out Mage: The Hero Discovered, Mage: The Hero Defined, and all the latest issues of Mage: The Hero Denied at Comixology.
Michael Penkas has been a fan of Matt Wagner for longer than some of you have been alive. He’s written a dominatrix detective mystery novel, Mistress Bunny and the Cancelled Client, as well as dozens of ghost stories. He occasionally maintains a website and regularly participates at various reading events throughout Chicago.

CalWORKs advocates like Vivian Thorp say 100,000 California children would be hurt by the overhaul:
Thorp: "We can't allow this to happen! We can't. That's why we're here today. We're here to call on our leaders to find revenue solutions - not more cuts to essential programs like CalWORKs."
Brown's proposal would create three separate programs: CalWORKs Basic, with two years of job training for people looking for work; CalWORKs Plus, with more generous payments for people who FIND work; and a Child Maintenance Program, with smaller benefits for parents unable or unwilling to find work. The administration says the goal is to encourage welfare recipients to become self-sufficient more quickly - while saving the state $1.4 billion.

You've undoubtedly heard of "Amazon," and some of you may even be familiar with "Alexa!" My home is filled with Alexa devices, each one a little assistant capable of playing music, providing weather updates, and even sharing an inspirational quote!
Perhaps the term "Alexa Flash Briefing" is new to you. As someone passionate about technology, social media, apps, and everything in between, I have a penchant for being an early adopter of the latest innovations. I even have an Audible book to my name, something I never foresaw! My fear of missing out (FOMO) often prompts me to explore new trends, which I've come to view as a superpower rather than an impulse.
Several years ago, I learned about an Amazon Alexa Flash Briefing. It's a brief audio clip, usually lasting from one to three minutes, played on Alexa-powered devices like the Amazon Echo. It's akin to a condensed podcast. After sampling a few flash briefings on various topics, I wondered, could I create my own? What would I discuss, and where would I find content?
Suddenly, it clicked. I'm all about radiating "POSITIVE ENERGY." My daily routine of meditation and journaling in solitude sparked the idea for my Flash Briefing, "A Dose of Positive Energy." I started recording in December 2017 and recored 1000 days in a row without missing a day!
Each day, I transform the inspiration I glean from my quiet time into a story, reading, or quote, and share it with the world through Amazon.
My long-standing mantra, "You never know how or when you might touch another life," is a testament to the power of positive energy. Most times, you won't know who's listening, but occasionally, some listeners reach out. Their messages and testimonials, from people I've never met, fuel my mission to spread positivity.
My Flash Briefing, which concluded on December 20th 2020 served as the inspiration for my book "A Dose of Positive Energy!" Since February 2020, I've been working on the book, which launched on February 22nd, 2022!
Below, you'll find a compilation of over 1000 episodes that I created and produced, which have been featured on Apple iTunes, Spotify, and various other podcast platforms. I hope they bring you the same joy and positivity they brought me when creating them.

Allow me to share a deep character flaw of mine that it took nearly six decades to realize but only moments to rectify.
Despite outward appearances and an intensely unsavory public reputation, the sad truth is that I’m way too nice — all the way to the point where I’m not.
I’ve displayed the same pattern with both lovers and friends — I launch into friendships and romance being as absolutely generous as possible until suddenly I stop when I realize it’s not being reciprocated.
When Church of Satan leader Anton Lavey died, his daughter told reporters, “He said his epitaph should be. . . ‘I only regret the times that I was too nice.’”
I know the feeling.
A psychologist once told a friend of mine that his behavior indicates he’s a “bottler” — he lets people step on him to the point where the bottled-up resentment finally explodes.
That’s been my consistent modus operandi until very recently. I will let someone step on me until I lose my temper, and in the process, I wind up looking like the bad guy. In a very sad and pathetic way that’s difficult to admit, I suspect I may wind up finally assuming the bad-guy role to take the heat off of the person who’s been mistreating me for so long.
My most infamous display of this behavioral pattern was the one that landed me in prison. This is from a 1997 phone call I recorded between me and my then-mistress. Tone doesn’t translate well to text, but my tone throughout this call was one of measured exasperation, where she was lighthearted, goofy, and utterly unconcerned with my exasperation:
JIM: I was talking to [Sean] Tejaratchi earlier tonight, before I even picked you up, and he asked me why did I think people like Debbie and you were attracted to me, and I couldn’t say why. And he says he thinks it’s because these are people who feel disgusting and nobody understands them, and I accept them. It’s typical Tej.
ANNE: Do you think that’s the truth?
JIM: Yeah, I think so.
ANNE: [unintelligible] You should be a motivational speaker or something. . . . You’re a little shepherd.
JIM: Oh, Christ.
ANNE: You are! You’re a protector. You’re a shepherd of the mentally ill.
I’d dealt with this level of harassment from that mentally ill skank for a solid year until the night I finally snapped. And after I’d realized that maybe she WAS disgusting and that no one SHOULD understand or accept her, she went full borderline personality disorder and set up her humble shepherd for slaughter.
I sat stewing in prison, being virtually alone in the realization that I was not the aggressor until I abruptly became the aggressor once I grew tired of being aggressed upon. I remember thinking that I would much rather be the unflinching, bulldozing, abusive asshole I was commonly perceived to be, because there’s at least some power and control in that role.
Around this time, it was not pleasant to hear a friend of mine break the truth to me about my first marriage — one where, at the end, I managed to make myself look like the absolute unmitigated monster because over the course of nearly twelve years I was too kind until I suddenly wasn’t. He said that when he first met the two of us, it was immediately apparent that I cared for her and that she didn’t care at all about me.
It’s tough to admit that you’re so lonely you’d put up with an absolute Medusa of a woman. It’s hard to concede that you may be so starved for friendship that you’ll be friends with people who wind up sucking every last drop of goodwill out of you.
But the moment you’re tough enough to admit it, the rest is easy.
I recall a girlfriend of mine from about eight years ago who, after one of our countless arguments, told me that I get into arguments with everyone.
I had no immediate comeback, but a day later, I realized I’ve had friends for a quarter-century with whom I’ve never argued. So what was the difference between them and her?
The difference was that if they were aware I’d been up all night writing and needed at least a half-hour’s worth of sleep before we drove back to Atlanta, they’d be considerate enough to stay quiet or go for a walk or anything besides sitting right next to me as I finally fell asleep, flip open their laptop, and start laughing at the top of their lungs at cat videos.
To come at the hackneyed “There are two kinds of people in the world” cliché from a completely different angle, I’ll say that if long and hard experience has taught me anything, it’s that the world can be divided into people who interpret your kindness as kindness and those who interpret it as weakness.
Perhaps I was born socially naive, or maybe no one ever told me to treat people with suspicion until they’ve earned my trust. I recall a psychologist I used to see while I was in college. When I asked him, “I’ve been coming here a few months — what’s your general take on me?” his response was, “I think no one ever really sat you down and told you how life works.”
Again and again, I am Charlie Brown and the world is Lucy with a football, snatching it away at the last minute and causing me to land on my ass.
I think part of my problem was a stubbornly naive refusal to accept how shallow and rotten and self-serving most people are. Despite so much experience suggesting that’s exactly how most people are, it still seemed too overwhelming to be real, and I preferred to pretend human nature was better than it really is.
But one reaches a point in his life — assuming he’s even capable of self-reflection — where such excuses are no longer viable, because life has a way of teaching you the lessons your parents may have failed to teach you.
It’s best to admit you’ve been a bit of an idiot than to deny it and become a full-blown, late-stage idiot.
It’s best to correct your flaws before they cripple you.
To rework an often misattributed quote, it’s better to admit you’ve been a fool than to double down and become a fool for life.
I’ve decided, heading into my seventh decade next month, to entirely purge my life of those who interpret my kindness as weakness.
Long experience has led me to believe that people who are inconsiderate are incurable. If you have to tell them to be considerate once, you’ll have to keep telling them EVERY time. I’ve never seen an exception to this rule. The very fact that you have to tell them to be considerate even once signals that you are dealing with someone who may as well be a different species than you.
I’ve learned not to erupt anymore. If someone proves unworthy of my friendship or love, I very gently cut them out of my life like a surgeon coldly excising a tumor and dispassionately casting it into a wastebasket.
Now my task is learning how to not let anyone take advantage of my kindness for so long that I’m even tempted to lose my temper.
What, you may ask, does any of this sobbing confessional have to do with white people?
It’s because I see myself as a metaphor for how white people are behaving in the face of endless disregard from nonwhites.
“The Beginnings” is the name of a 1917 poem by Rudyard Kipling that has been mangled and misrepresented online as “The Wrath of the Awakened Saxon.” But Kipling actually hated Saxons, especially after he lost his son at the hand of Germans in World War I. The poem is about how the Anglos rather than the Saxons are very slow to anger but are brutal once that anger is roused. A sample verse:
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the English began to hate.
Although there’s endless quibbling about who exactly is white and who isn’t, I think a fair definition is that anywhere outside of Europe, it refers to the people of the European diaspora who speak English in countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia — i.e., the Anglosphere.
Will the suicidally altruistic white people of the Anglosphere finally learn to hate — the good, productive, self-serving kind of hate — when they realize how thoroughly they’ve been cowed and gaslit?
And if that day comes, what happens the day after?

SAN FRANCISCO – New discoveries could change the way antihistamines are used from a predominantly systemic to a topical approach, according to an article from the San Francisco VAMC and the University of California in San Francisco.
The report, published this year in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, noted that systemic antagonists of the histamine type 1 and 2 receptors (H1/2r) are widely used as anti-pruritics and central sedatives but demonstrate only modest anti-inflammatory activity.1
Because many inflammatory dermatoses result from defects in cutaneous barrier function, and because keratinocytes express both Hr1 and Hr2, researchers hypothesized that H1/2r antagonists might be more effective if they were used topically to treat inflammatory dermatoses.
They found that topical H1/2r antagonists additively enhanced permeability barrier homeostasis in normal mouse skin by the following mechanisms: (i) stimulation of epidermal differentiation, leading to thickened cornified envelopes; and (ii) enhanced epidermal lipid synthesis and secretion. As barrier homeostasis was enhanced to a comparable extent in mast cell-deficient mice, with no further improvement following application of topical H1/2r antagonists, H1/2r antagonists likely oppose mast cell-derived histamines.
In fact, topical H1/2r agonists aggravated, whereas H1/2r antagonists improved, inflammation and/or barrier function in four immunologically diverse, disease models in mice, characterized by either inflammation alone (acute irritant contact dermatitis, acute allergic contact dermatitis) or by prominent barrier abnormalities (subacute allergic contact dermatitis, atopic dermatitis).
“The apparent ability of topical H1r/2r antagonists to target epidermal H1/2r could translate into increased efficacy in the treatment of inflammatory dermatoses, likely due to decreased inflammation and enhanced barrier function,” according to study authors, who added, “These results could shift current paradigms of antihistamine utilization from a predominantly systemic to a topical approach.”

Man accuses former boss of unfair dismissal
A man has accused former boss MP Bob Russell of sacking him unfairly.
John Scott used to work as a part-time assistant case worker at the politician's constituency office, the Chelmsford Weekly News reports.
He alleges that he was dismissed last year as a result of whistleblowing.
Mr Scott, who is in his 60s, told a pre-hearing review that his departure from the office was achieved by a breach of contract and was an example of discrimination.
A further review of the case is set to take place in October.
Mr Russell, who has been an MP for Colchester since 1997, denies the claims made against him and says they are part of a smear campaign.
He is a member of the Liberal Democrat Defence Team and a party whip and previously operated as the sports spokesman for the party.
The politician is also a long-serving member of the Home Affairs Select Committee.

Electric Jaguar I-Pace will go on sale in Europe in March 2018December 6, 2017
Immediately after the presentation in the first half of March next year, car sales will begin in the UK.
The British automobile concern Jaguar Land Rover intends to enter the segment of electric crossovers in the first half of 2018. Now the leaders is Tesla Model X, but the British brand in the face of Jaguar I-Pace will be able to make a worthy competition. On the eve of the company released a promo video about testing test samples of this novelty in camouflage in California.
The world premiere of the production version of the electric crossover Jaguar I-Pace will take place at the international auto show in Geneva in early March next year. Immediately after the debut, the British are ready to begin selling it in their home market. The first copies of the buyers will receive in early summer.
At the moment, the final stage of testing a new cross is carried out. According to the representatives of the company, the car is already ready for 99 percent.
Let us recall that the prototype I-Pace was previously presented, and the serial version will not differ much from it. The crossover will receive a body length of 4.7 meters with a wheelbase of 3 meters. The salon will be very spacious. Places for luggage will be more than enough – 530 liters. Since the car will be electric, the designers decided to place under the hood an additional small cargo compartment for 28 liters.
Power plant Jaguar I-Pace consists of two electric motors produces 400 horsepower and 700 Nm of torque. The battery capacity is 90 kWh. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h is about 4 seconds. And the minimum power reserve of the electric car will be 320 kilometers. The day before it was confirmed by an independent tester in the face of the inhabitant of the Californian city of Pasadena Anne Voye.

text: Favorite summer camp moment: the kids in my group at St. Ed’s Art of Nature find a tiny dead vole (a meadow mouse), and after examining it’s feet for tracking curiosities, we decide it needs a proper funeral. I plant the idea of a Viking funeral at sea and tell them to fetch a piece of bark for a boat. They then spend an hour cooperatively decorating this elaborate little boat of curled bark the size of my forearm. They gingerly cover the vole with Hemlock needles and a yellow leaf, and surround the corpse with blue pebbles, cones and “blackberries to feed it’s spirit in the next life” (!) with a great golden Big Leaf Maple leaf as a rudder and sail. The “pyre” is set. We ship it out to sea on Lake Washington: it floats a stone’s throw from us, and slowly sinks. I say, “Oh, look, he’s going to the Underworld!” and we all sing the Canoe Song in unison. Which was so cute I could hardly bear it. Made my week.


text: THE Chrysler Group will use its ‘‘home’’ motor show at Detroit in January to lift the covers on a pair of diverse concept models.The company has released sketches of the Chrysler Nassau and Jeep Trailhawk concepts which will feature prominently on the stand at the North American International Auto Show.The Chrysler Nassau concept is a four-door, fourpassenger luxury coupe with an emphasis on driving dynamics. The exterior design carries the theme of the large metal expanses on the 300C through to the next level, and leans toward an exploration of what could be a future sedan in the brand’s line-up. The Jeep Trailhawk concept brings together the iconic aspects of the Jeep range in a single model.It merges the core features of the Jeep Wrangler with the more sophisticated Grand Cherokee to produce a car that sits right across the brand values. Derived from the all-new 2007 Wrangler architecture, the Jeep Trailhawk concept taps into ‘‘Jeep Rugged’’ attributes to provide classic proportions, unsurpassed off-road capability and a new approach to open-air freedom. The headlamps, cropped and peering out from beneath a diagonal brow, produce the countenance of a bird of prey, and the inspiration for the Trailhawk name.


Tesla's Autopilot once again demonstrated its technological prowess, as the driver assistance system successfully avoided a collision with several involved cars.
Active safety features are standard on all Tesla vehicles built after September 2014, providing an additional layer of safety beyond the physical structure of the vehicle. The company uses data from all of its vehicles on the road to better understand how accidents happen. After analyzing the data, Tesla continues to develop features that help Tesla drivers mitigate or avoid accidents.
A driver from Virginia, U.S. was shocked when his Tesla, with Autopilot activated, suddenly deviated from the course and began to leave the lane it was in. Within a few seconds, he realized that the car in front suddenly braked, which caused a major multi-car accident, reported Nieuwsblad.
Most incredibly, Autopilot identified a dangerous situation even before the accident actually happened. The incident was captured by the on-board camera of the electric vehicle and, according to the timeframe, the collision occurred after the Tesla left the danger zone. This underlines the fact that Autopilot was able to predict a dangerous situation and save the car and its passengers from it.
Cameras and sensors of Tesla vehicles work in such a way that they are able to "see" not only further than a person but also scan those sections of the road that a person cannot see. This gives Autopilot the unique ability to prevent collisions that the human driver is not capable of. The video taken during this incident demonstrated this very well, as the Tesla escaped the collision, while other cars driven by human drivers became victims of the accident.
In the US, car accidents occur every 479,000 miles, according to NHTSA data. Meanwhile, Tesla reported that, in Q3 2020, the company recorded one accident for every 4.59 million miles driven in which drivers had Autopilot engaged. These data demonstrate Tesla Autopilot's superior safety performance--which has been to shown to be almost 10 times safer than a human driver.

For AXA and its employees, responsibility for people and our environment are causes close to our heart. This is the reason that thousands of AXA employees take part in social projects around the world every year, including Switzerland of course. This year we’re promoting Swiss waterways, their riverbanks as well as forests and moors.
Voluntary work has long been a tradition for us: in 1991, Claude Bébéar, former CEO of the AXA Group, set up the AXA Hearts in Action campaign, which is an international volunteering program. Under the program, thousands of AXA employees take part in social projects around the world - Europe, the US, Asia and Africa - either in working hours or in their free time. The assignments are spread over three areas: the environment, education and social matters.
In 2018, over 34,000 staff around the world completed an assignment to help society or the environment. AXA also donated EUR 25.8 million and made EUR 600,000 in-kind donations for good causes last year.
The AXA Hearts in Action campaign is not just about devoting time to a good cause. As a modern progressive employer, we would like to give our staff the opportunity to get involved in trying to create a better future. At the same time, participants learn about various issues during their assignments, such as the environmental pollution caused by waste. The common experiences also promote team spirit among our employees and act as a motivating factor.
There are many projects that businesses or individuals can support in Switzerland. We are always reviewing the focus of our campaigns. In 2017, our staff in Switzerland, for example, donated 2.5 tons of relief goods for Syrian refugees in Jordan. This year, the subject of volunteering assignments was the environment and climate change. Two hundred staff helped maintain the mountain forest in Einsiedeln, cleaned the River Sihl in Zurich and planted native flora on the Neeracherried lowland moor.

Low force chiropractic adjustments can be performed in different ways such as manually, with a low force instrument or with cold laser therapy. These treatments are safe for people of all ages and help with many soft tissue conditions.
What are the different chiropractic techniques that use low force adjustments?
Dr. Andrew Shepherd: Well, Liz, there are many and varying chiropractic techniques that do utilize low to no force adjustments. Now, the ones that I personally use in my office are Activator Methods, which is a manual instrument form of adjusting. An instrument called an ArthroStim, which is an automatic, mechanical, low force instrument, a percussor, and a rapid release, which are mechanical myofascial release devices, similar to getting a massage but just using an instrument and lastly craniosacral and SOT blocking, which is low force manual techniques, and, finally, cold laser therapy.
What conditions are treated with low force adjustments?
Dr. Andrew Shepherd: Well, any condition that can be treated with a typical, high velocity, manual adjustment can be treated equally effectively using one of the already mentioned low force techniques. Now specifically, any type of soft tissue or myofascial condition responds extremely well to these low force treatment modalities. Oftentimes when working with either pediatrics, geriatrics, or post-surgical patients, one of multiple of these low force techniques will be utilized as our preferred non-invasive treatment of choice due to the fact that it’s painless, very, very effective, and it’s more soothing for the client.
What type of equipment is used during low force adjustments?
Dr. Andrew Shepherd: Well, the equipment used for low force adjustment will vary, depending on the specific techniques or the specific instruments that are being utilized. Generally the patient will lay on an adjustment table and the treatment will be performed either using an instrument or a manual device as necessary but, if the patient is unable for whatever reason to lay down, we can performed seated adjustments and also standing adjustments. Many times when we’re treating pediatric patients, they simply stay in the mother’s or the father’s arms. You can actually visit our website at www.planochiropractornow.com and, on that website, there’s a full selection of all of our low force techniques including pictures, so you can kind of see for yourselves.
Are low force adjustments used in conjunction with other higher or deeper pressure adjustments?
Dr. Andrew Shepherd: That’s a great question. Treatment protocols used with a patient are really case-specific and they’re tailored to each individual’s unique requirements. As such, there are definitely occasions where multiple forms of treatment, from low force instrument to manual and high velocity adjustments, will be used together, yes.
Are low force adjustments effective for everyone regardless of size or age?
Dr. Andrew Shepherd: Yes, absolutely. All low force treatment options utilized in this office are extremely effective, have multiple decades of research behind them, and this is the case irrespective of demographic and by that I mean age, size, shape, color. It’s irrelevant. It all works the same.

Netaji great son of India, says Governor Biswa Bhusan Harichandan
Governor Biswa Bhusan Harichandan paid rich tributes to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose on his 125th birth anniversary at a programme held in Raj Bhavan on Saturday.
Vijayawada: Governor Biswa Bhusan Harichandan paid rich tributes to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose on his 125th birth anniversary at a programme held in Raj Bhavan on Saturday.
The Governor offered floral tributes to the portrait of Netaji and described him as a great son of India. He said Netaji's contribution to India's freedom struggle cannot be forgotten.
Biswa Bhusan recalled that lakhs of people jumped into the freedom struggle in response to the call for Quit India movement given by Mahatma Gandhi. Netaji did not believe in the peaceful protests though he had a great regard for Mahatma Gandhi and accepted Mahatma Gandhi as the great leader of the freedom movement.
Netaji strongly believed that the mighty British power could not be driven out of the country by peaceful means and felt that armed struggle was necessary.
The Governor said Netaji's call to youth of the country to "Give me blood, and I shall give you freedom!" created a sensation in those days and attracted youth in large number to join his campaign of mass disobedience to protest against the British rule.
Mukesh Kumar Meena, Secretary to Governor, A Shyam Prasad, Joint Secretary, officers and staff members of Raj Bhavan attended the programme.

The purpose of this paper is to augment heat transfer rates of traditional rib-elements with minimal pressure drop penalties.
The novel geometries in the present research are conventional cylindrical ribs with rounded transitions to the adjacent flat surfaces and with modifications at their bases. All turbulent fluid flow and heat transfer results are presented using computation fluid dynamics with a validated v2f turbulence closure model. Turbulent flow characteristics and heat transfer performances in square channels with improved ribbed structures are numerically analyzed in this research work.
Based on the results, it is found that rounded transition cylindrical ribs have a large advantage over the conventional ribs in both enhancing heat transfer and reducing pressure loss penalty. In addition, cylindrical ribs increase the flow impingement at the upstream of the ribs, which will effectively increase the high heat transfer areas. The design of rounded transition cylindrical ribs and grooves will be an effective way to improve heat transfer enhancement and overall thermal performance of internal channels within blade cooling.
The novel geometries in this research are conventional cylindrical ribs with rounded transitions to the adjacent flat surfaces and with modifications at their bases. The combination of cylindrical ribs and grooves to manipulate the turbulent flow.
This work has been carried out at the School of Marine Science and Technology, Northwestern Polytechnical University and the Department of Energy Sciences at Lund University, Sweden. The research work was financially supported by the China Scholarship Council and Sweden Energy Agency.

Posted April 28, 2020
[Note: An earlier version of this release misstated the extent of the President’s authority to order plants to stay open. He does not have such legal authority under the Defense Production Act.]
Following is a statement from Debbie Berkowitz, program director for worker safety and health with the National Employment Law Project:
“President Trump’s executive order, which purports to require the nation’s meat production plants to remain open, will gravely jeopardize the health and safety of the 500,000 workers in the meatpacking industry.
“More than 3,000 workers in the meat industry have already gotten sick with COVID-19, and 17 workers have died. But instead of requiring meatpacking companies to implement safe practices, the President prefers to shield these corporations from responsibility for putting workers’ lives in danger.
“It’s unfathomable that the administration is still not requiring meatpacking plants to implement the latest CDC recommendations, which include modifying the alignment of production lines, keeping workers six feet apart, and implementing new guidance on break rooms and locker rooms, sanitation, and protective gear. Without these necessary and common-sense protective measures, COVID-19 will continue to spread in these plants and the communities around them.
“The meatpacking industry is already one of the most dangerous industries in the United States, with injury rates twice the national average and illness rates 15 times the national average. The Black, brown, immigrant, and refugee workers who are disproportionately represented in the meatpacking industry will bear the brunt of this dangerous decision.
“Even during a global health crisis, the Trump administration has chosen once again to prioritize corporate interests over the health and safety of working people and their communities.
“This administration needs to step up and issue a federal emergency safety standard to protect all workers, rather than protect the profits of corporate cronies. Unfortunately, the President’s action sends a signal to meatpacking companies that workers’ health and ultimately public health doesn’t matter.”

And tax, and tax, and tax, and tax.
It’s the Government Way!
If you look at the above Cost/Benefit analysis map of Waxman-Markey Bill, you’ll notice that six of the eight turncoat Republicans were from states that will supposedly “benefit”. How anyone could believe anyone is going to benefit from this insane piece of legislation is beyond me, but I expect the one (R) from WA (Riechert) will put something about this in his 2010 relection literature.
Too bad that this means it’ll be his last legislative session. But oh well. We voters ask for just a bit more spine.
And it is also too bad that The Club For Growth doesn’t have a better media presence so as to get this info out earlier and more widespread.

The GST Council on Saturday clinched an agreement to fix rates for almost all items, which will marginally push up prices of gold, cheaper biscuits and most readymade garments.
Lower-end garments as well as footwear have been put in a separate bracket to ensure that they are not overly burdened. In addition, army canteens will continue to enjoy the benefit of lower taxes, finance minister Arun Jaitley said.
The Council, headed by Jaitley and state finance ministers, also finalised two pending rules and decided to put in place a panel of officers to keep tabs on unnecessary price spikes, setting the stage for a switchover to the new tax regime from next month.
“We are prepared and confident of being able to stick to the target date (of July 1),” Jaitley said. To a query on West Bengal’s opposition citing lack of preparedness, the minister said that “others didn’t share that view”.
The ministers resolved the issues left over from last month’s meeting in Srinagar which will mean that packed food items, which bear a trademark, will see a 5% levy, while bidis will be taxed at 28% with no cess like cigarettes.

Editorial from The New York Times:
Last year, Karl Rove defied a Congressional subpoena ordering him to testify about the politically driven hiring and firing of United States attorneys. The House Judiciary Committee has now issued another subpoena. Congress and the Obama administration should do everything they can to compel him to testify.
Americans deserve a full accounting. Monica Goodling, a top aide to Alberto Gonzales, admitted that she hired lawyers for nonpartisan jobs based on their politics. The Justice Department’s inspector general found that Bradley Schlozman, the onetime head of the civil rights division, politicized his staff and made false statements to Congress. Other witnesses have told investigators that prosecutors were allowed to keep their jobs or were fired based on whether they brought cases that helped Republicans win elections.

Al Fredo is going back to Capitol Hill today!! Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Patrick Leahy (D-VT), sent Gonzo a list of questions so he would be able to refresh his Swiss cheese memory before coming to testify. The title will give you an idea of what it covered:

All kinds of new poop headed down the tracks in the runaway train that we so lovingly call Gonzogate. The Senate Judiciary Committee questioned Wan Kim, the current assistant attorney general for civil rights about reports that 3 minority women in the DOJ’s civil rights division were shunted aside to “make room for some good Americans” (you can thank Kim’s predecessor, Bradley J. Schlozman, for that little gem), and assistant Attorney General Paul McNulty was back in the hotseat in front of the House Judiciary Committee rebutting Monica Goodling’s version of the facts.
From the Washington Post:
In the Senate yesterday, Democrats seized on the report that Schlozman had, while acting assistant attorney general for civil rights, removed the female lawyers — against their supervisors’ advice — as new evidence that the Justice Department under President Bush has been infected by improper political considerations.
Rep. Bill Delahunt (D-Mass.) described McNulty as the “caboose” in the firings process and said he had been unfairly singled out for blame. “I think you were poorly treated,” Delahunt said.
Al Fredo might think that he is driving this train….

Via Michael Gerson at Real Clear Politics:
Republicans got a leader who is impatient and easily distracted -- by cable news on the Russian scandal or by Arnold Schwarzenegger's TV ratings. The content and consequences of his tweets are bad enough; worse is the disordered personality traits they reveal -- vindictiveness, shallowness and lack of discipline. Trump spent a total of 18 days on his health care bill before demanding a vote. And he made no speech to the nation to advance his ideas -- as every other recent president would have done.
Republicans got an administration that is incompetent. The White House policy process has been erratic and disorganized. It has failed to provide expert analysis and assistance to Congress and did little to effectively advocate the president's policy in ways that unite the party.
Republicans got an administration that is morally small. Trump's proposed budget would require massive cuts in disease research, global development and agricultural programs -- just as a famine gathers a hideous strength. The proposed budget practices random acts of gratuitous cruelty.
This is a pretty bad combination: empty, easily distracted, vindictive, shallow, impatient, incompetent and morally small. This is not the profile of a governing party.
It can hardly surprise us. The president had no governing experience. He has no detailed governing agenda. He trashed everyone who tried to govern in the past. And we somehow expect him to overcome the complex governing task presented by the Freedom Caucus?
We have in the White House a man beset by scandal. Refusing to answer to any ethical standard, committing acts of nepotism that serve no purpose other than to profit his own family. Pushing our allies away with childish arrogance and shakedown moves worthy of a neighborhood mafioso. Committing acts of ineptitude that would get people fired from any real job.
Sitting in the center of an ongoing storm connecting him to Russian agents and businessmen tied to Putin regarding possible sabotaging and manipulation of our 2016 General Election. A HORRIFYING BLEND of greed, political machinations, and I am not kidding a growing body count.
trump's mishandling of the Russian investigations has been so inept he's dragged in an idiotic House Republican in a poorly-staged attempt to invert the news cycle to "vindicate" trump's behaviors as well as sabotage the House Intelligence Committee's investigations.
trump polled recently at 35 percent. Obama never polled that low. It took Katrina wiping out half the Gulf Coast for Dubya to poll that low. No
This isn't even getting to the fact that trump's intentionally understaffing his own departments, and the fact that trump's only "successes" his first two months in office has been to energize an Immigration agency into greater bullying and harassing of honest hard-working citizens and residents (and their kids, and whole families, and... ). We've already seen how trump will deal with Congress - foolishly - and we're facing an incoming crisis of a government shutdown that the Republicans aren't even addressing.
This train wreck shows no sign of stopping even as every car piles on top of each other like a stack of broken dominoes.

All great things have to end – otherwise they would not be great. Bravo to long time friend and client John William King for this epic run with the All Hockey Hair team. I was lucky enough to design John’s “Game On MN” brand. As an artist – John did the impossible thing that only artists can do – he found beauty where no one had seen it before. And created a no-joke phenomena. The All Hockey Hair team made millions of yucks and made a lot of bucks for Disabled hockey support at the Hendrickson Foundation. Bravo to John for making our state the true state of Minneflowta. Long may you flow, John… Long may you flow…. And big props for having the COURAGE to go out with Cinderella. That’s pure magic.

A general method for the development of valid lower bound solutions to uniformly distributed and orthotropically reinforced rectangular concrete slabs obeying normal moment criterion is described. General expressions for moment field have been obtained for nine cases of slabs having all combinations of simply supported and clamped-edge conditions. The lower bound collapse loads have been compared with the upper bound values obtained by the yield line theory. The paper also focuses attention to the need for the development of valid upper bound solutions with the satisfaction of kinematical admissibility and the flow rules associated with the normal moment criterion.

This module provides students with a sociological and criminological understanding of contemporary issues relating to youth crime. More specifically, the module provides both a practical and critical understanding of young people's involvement in crime and deviance and the various responses to youth crime, especially how young people are dealt with by the youth justice system. The module begins by examining current trends in youth offending and explores media responses. We then go on to look at 'the youth problem' from an historical context. The module then goes on to focus in depth on how we can research your crime through a lens of four key substantive themes such as; gangs and violent crime; drugs, alcohol and nightlife; young people, urban space and antisocial behaviour; and the youth justice system in England and Wales. Throughout the module, attention is given to the importance of understanding the connections of youth crime with race, class and gender and at the same time, engages with key theoretical ideas, research methodologies and debates that inform our understandings of youth crime. This unit provides an opportunity to engage with the most up-to-date debates in an area of great interest in contemporary society.

text: The Datil is an exceptionally hot pepper, a variety of the species Capsicum chinense (syn. Capsicum Sinense). Datils are similar to habaneros but have a sweeter, fruitier flavor. Their level of spiciness may be anywhere from 100,000 to 300,000 scoville units. Datil peppers are cultivated throughout the United States and elsewhere, but the majority are produced in St. Augustine, Florida, where they have been traditionally cultivated for roughly two-hundred thirty years.
