Car & Driver found on-road handling more stable than a Wrangler but criticised abrupt accelerator and braking response off-road, and the Moab trim's $68,990 price and 222 mi estimated range may limit its appeal against conventional off-roaders.FORD DISCONTINUES CURRENT-GENERATION F-150 LIGHTNING, PLANS EREVFord quietly discontinued the current-generation F-150 Lightning in December, though it stayed on sale for several months and is now absent from Ford's website, ending the run of what had been America's best-selling electric pickup. Its replacement will be an extended-range EREV pickup using a petrol generator for more than 700 miles of combined range, which CEO Jim Farley called a "better solution" that runs on electricity 90% of the time.BYD DOLPHIN SURF ADVERTISED FROM €12,605 IN SPAINBYD is advertising the Dolphin Surf from €12,605 in Spain via September promotions, a figure that depends on CA Auto Bank financing over at least 72 months with a 36-month commitment, dealer and manufacturer discounts, a €3,375 Plan Auto+ advance and €950 from an energy-saving certificate. Because the finance contract rather than the subsidy award fixes liability, buyers owe CA Auto Bank the €3,375 if their application fails or the scheme's €400 million for 2026 runs out, and the price is €825 higher than the €11,780 advertised at the car's May 2025 launch.EVGO AND REGENCY PLAN MORE THAN 400 FAST-CHARGING STALLSEVgo and shopping-centre owner Regency plan to install more than 400 fast-charging stalls across Regency properties in the United States, concentrating on centres anchored by grocery stores. Each new site is planned to have up to 24 high-power chargers, with charging during a grocery run pitched as both a convenience for drivers and a draw for retail footfall.CHERY PLANS FOUR UK MODELS INCLUDING FIRST EVChery will launch four new or updated UK models in the next 12 months, including its first fully electric car for Britain, after entering the market in August 2025 and recording more than 29,000 registrations and over 2.5% market share in its first year. Plug-in hybrids remain central, with Chery Super Hybrid vehicles accounting for around 75% of UK registrations and CSH upgrades including larger battery packs planned for the TIGGO 4, 7, 8 and 9.PORSCHE BUGATTI SALE GENERATES ABOUT €1 BILLIONPorsche completed the sale of its 45 percent stake in Bugatti to a consortium led by HOF Capital on 9 September, having declined to disclose a price when the deal was announced in April; Rimac Group holds the remaining 55 percent of the joint venture, which has run since 2021. The disposal is part of a portfolio overhaul by Porsche and its Volkswagen Group and Piech family owners under CEO Michael Leiters, who since January has cut 5,000 jobs and sold non-core businesses.SLOTKIN SAYS TRUMP MAY ALLOW CHINESE CARSSenator Elissa Slotkin said she had heard unsourced rumours that President Trump may allow Chinese cars into the US under a broader agreement with China ahead of a Washington meeting with Xi Jinping, warning it would "irrevocably impact" 1.2 million Michigan jobs. The claim looks more like political theatre than imminent policy, given Trump has backed the 100% tariff on Chinese EVs that the Biden administration raised from 25% in 2024, and Slotkin and Ohio Republican Bernie Moreno are pushing the Connected Vehicle Security Act to ban Chinese vehicles, software and hardware outright.SSEN RECEIVES £166,092 FOR ROAMING EV CHARGINGSSEN Distribution has received £166,000 in discovery funding through Ofgem's Strategic Innovation Fund for Roaming MPAN, a scheme to cut the cost of on-street EV charging by letting drivers use their household electricity tariff at other connection points, identified via the 13-digit MPAN assigned to each network connection. SSEN said the approach could also benefit the network by encouraging drivers to charge on-street overnight when demand is lower.AUSTRALIA ADDS EV WORKSHOP EQUIPMENT TO DRIVENAustralia's federal government has opened a third round of the DRIVEN programme, extending support for dealerships and repair businesses beyond chargers to EV-specific workshop equipment, with up to 80 per cent of eligible costs claimable for protective equipment, tools and lifting apparatus. AU$18.8 million has been allocated to the 2026-2029 Charger Rebate Stream, offering up to AU$3,000 per fixed smart charging plug or portable DC charger, alongside wider measures such as New South Wales' AUD$100 million EV strategy announced in April.ELECTREK REVIEWS NANROBOT LS7+ WITH 74.5 MPH TOP SPEEDNanrobot claims a 74.5 mph top speed for the $2,299 LS7+ standing e-scooter, which pairs two 3,000W motors and a claimed 10,000W peak with a 72V 35Ah Samsung battery, 11-inch tyres, four-piston NUTT hydraulic brakes, adjustable KKE suspension and a steering damper. Electrek's Micah Toll did not test the top speed and found riding above the low 40s mph uncomfortable, noting the claimed 81-mile range assumes 15.5 mph with a 165 lb rider and would fall sharply in real use, making the scooter better suited to extreme off-road recreation than commuting.

Volvo says the deal grows retailer sales and service revenue without the financial risk of investing in the brand — notable given it sold its 30% Lynk & Co stake to Zeekr for 5.4 billion yuan (about $805m).VOLVO DROPS EX40 AS EX50 EXPECTED IN 2027Volvo is discontinuing the EX40 in the US and Canada, with its expected replacement, the slightly larger EX50 on the cheaper SPA3 platform and priced in the high $40,000s, not due at dealerships until autumn 2027. The EX40 rode on the near decade-old CMA platform and sold best through the Care by Volvo subscription scheme that ended in 2024; the EX60 P6 now marks Volvo's electric SUV entry point at $59,795 against the EX40's $56,545.NISSAN REVIVES PIXO AS ITS MOST AFFORDABLE EUROPEAN EVNissan will revive the Pixo name for its cheapest European EV, an A-segment model sitting below the Micra and premiering on 23 September 2026, built on Renault's RGEV Small platform alongside the Twingo and Dacia Spring at Novo Mesto in Slovenia. Expected to be mechanically identical to the Twingo Electric with a 27.5 kWh CATL LFP pack and around 263 km of range, it gets Nissan-designed styling drawing on late-80s and early-90s Pike cars such as the Figaro and Be-1, against Twingo and Spring prices of €20,000 and €18,000.POLESTAR FORMULA 2030 SIGNALS POLESTAR 2 AND 7 STYLINGPolestar has revealed Formula 2030, a design concept previewing the next Polestar 2 due in 2027 and the forthcoming Polestar 7, tied to its 2030 strategy for higher sales and a route to profitability. Only a dark image of the front has been released, showing a lower, wider stance, Dual Blade headlights and a motorsport-style vertical wiper, marking a new phase under design head Philipp Römers that Polestar calls an evolution rather than a replacement of its existing language.MERCEDES VLE 400 4MATIC STARTS AT €78,500Mercedes-Benz has added the 310 kW VLE 400 4MATIC, which gains a rear-axle motor for all-wheel drive, a 6.5-second 0-100 km/h time and 2.5 tonnes of towing against the VLE 300's 1.75 tonnes, from €78,500 (about $91,500) with five seats or €79,000 with six. The performance costs range: both share a 115 kWh usable NMC pack, but the 4MATIC manages up to 654 km WLTP versus 713 km, with 800-volt architecture allowing DC charging at up to 300 kW.AMAZON STARTS EACTROS 600 DELIVERIES IN GERMANYAmazon has begun larger-scale German deliveries with Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 electric trucks on middle-mile runs between logistics centres and urban areas, drawn from a 2025 order of more than 200 trucks — around 50 for Germany and 140 for the UK, where operations started in late 2025. The trucks carry 621 kWh across three LFP packs for around 500 km of range and charge at up to 400 kW, as Amazon installs several hundred truck charging points and commits more than €1bn to electrifying its European transport network, including over €400m in Germany.RENAULT SETS TWO-YEAR FLOOR FOR VEHICLE DEVELOPMENTRenault is targeting two years or less from concept freeze to public reveal but CEO Francois Provost says it will go no faster, treating the timetable as a quality floor as well as a speed ambition under the Futuready 2030 investor plan. The aim is to match Chinese rivals gaining European share — standard at two years and moving towards 18 months, against three to five years for Western rivals — while avoiding defects and recalls, a concern echoed by Chinese regulators now running a yearlong campaign of unannounced quality and safety inspections.FORD TRANSIT CITY TO COST $50,000 IN AUSTRALIAFord Australia will launch the Transit City in November at AUD$50,000 driveaway (about USD$36,000), claiming the country's most affordable electric van against the Kia PV5 Cargo Long Range at AUD$55,990, with a 56 kWh LFP battery giving 254 km WLTP, 87 kW DC charging, 10-80% in about 33 minutes, a 1085 kg payload and 6.4 cubic metres of cargo space. The price comes with limits — no towing, no V2L, a solid bulkhead with no pass-through or window and colour as the only option — and the van is built by JV partner JMC in Nanchang on the E-Fushun platform rather than being related to the European Transit.BYD UK OPENS 138-SITE APPROVED REPAIR NETWORKBYD UK has launched a nationwide network of 138 approved body repairers developed with Vizion Network, which BYD describes as the UK's largest repair network. Every site uses technicians trained in BYD procedures, genuine parts and manufacturer-specified methods, adding accident repair to an ownership package that already includes a six-year warranty, maintenance support and up to four years of free roadside assistance.ZF PLANS MORE THAN 100 ELECTRIC AXLE DRIVE REPAIR-KIT VARIANTSZF will launch more than 100 repair-kit variants for electric axle drives in the coming weeks, each bundling the components needed for a specific repair as the company targets independent workshops servicing a growing EV fleet, though it has disclosed neither prices nor vehicle applications and has not substantiated its claim to cover around 92% of the European fleet of the 20 most widespread electric models. ZF also plans up to 200 catalogue references for Chinese-brand vehicles in Europe by Q1 2027, covering ten of the most popular Chinese models by the end of that year.

Does Chicago's noise, extreme temperature changes, allergies and varying sunshine add up to a detriment to its residents' health? You asked these questions, and we got answers from Rush doctors!Host - Jon HansenGuests - Alana Kirby, MD, PhD, NeurologistLauren Kelly, AuD, AudiologistChristopher Greb, MD, AllergistLinna Gali, MD, DermatologistLauren Cordes, DO, Family MedicineJon Tueting, Hand and Upper Extremity Orthopedic SurgeonFor more, head to Rush.edu Want to donate to our non-profit newsroom? CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch seven years ago, we've published more than 30,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 150,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Today we read, Make Them Say Poo, by Stephen.

In this episode, I join Eleana V to talk about body fat and in particular visceral fat i.e. the fat that surrounds our internal organs and can be hidden even in people who appear to be a “normal” weight.We discuss why visceral fat is different, what health conditions it's associated with, why we don't routinely measure it and the role of MRI and DEXA in assessing body composition.We also explore what actually helps reduce visceral fat and we finish with a quick-fire HOT TAKE round covering Ozempic, seed oils, coffee, alcohol, cold plunges, red light, grounding, sunscreen, CGMs and more.Listen to the Eleana V PodcastSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4WQR4ggZZQgSCF1CLk15nGYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ui_nOM9Y-8To be the first to be notified about MRI Visceral fat scans, join my website mailing list - www.drmaxgulhane.com Send us Fan Mail

What happens when a writer who cracked the code at four grows up to lead a nation's authors in a rapidly changing book economy? We sit down with Mikaela, president of the Society of Swedish Authors in Finland, to explore how love of language becomes both a creative engine and a shield for cultural diversity. From her early sense of writing as a private room for thinking to the public work of advocacy, she opens up about balancing solitude with leadership and why literature functions as democratic infrastructure, not a luxury.We travel through the pressures squeezing small-language communities: declining deep reading, a tilt toward entertainment-first publishing, and the quiet erosion of literary biodiversity. Mikaela lays out a sharper toolkit for authors—time-limited contracts, firm retention of rights, and royalty transparency that turns opaque audiobook streaming into accountable income. She explains how “seconds listened” distorts value and why publishers must partner with writers to demand clear reporting from platforms.The conversation tackles AI head-on. Who decides if a text becomes training data, and who gets paid when machines learn from human craft? Mikaela's north star is straightforward: transparency, consent, and fair remuneration across borders, with practical licensing paths that scale from Finland to Europe and beyond. We round out with the fuel that keeps risk-taking alive—grants, mentorship, translation, and cross-border alliances that link Finland-Swedish literature to Nordic and European readers—plus one structural move that could lift the whole ecosystem: zero VAT on books, from print to audio.If you care about author rights, minority languages, and the future of reading, this conversation offers clarity and next steps.

Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: St. Mary's, Canada begins removing about 330,000 gallons of fermented fish sauce left in an abandoned Atlantic Seafood Sauce Company factory, with crews draining tanks, mixing the liquid with peat moss, and burying it in a prepared pit. In upstate New York, the Salamanca City Central School District postpones introducing “Sally,” a $60,000 robot teacher's assistant, after questions from parents, teachers, and officials about data collection and concerns about robots replacing educators; union leader Melinda of NYSUT says students need relationships with caring adults, and Sally's maker Realbotics is linked to RealDoll. In Australia, a library book missing since the 1870s is found bricked in a fireplace and returned after 150 years, with a calculated late fee of about 28,000 AUD but no penalty charged. Dutch students build a solar-powered ambulance, Stella Juve, designed for remote care and equipped with medical gear and a fold-out clinic tent. Finally, Pacifica, California hosts the World Dog Surfing Championships, where dogs compete by size and skill, including tandem and human-dog rides. 00:10 Fish Sauce Factory Cleanup01:51 Robot Assistant Controversy03:32 150 Year Library Return05:07 Solar Powered Ambulance06:04 World Dog Surfing06:58 Wrap Up and PlugBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/5-good-news-stories-happiness-and-fun--5747537/support.5 Good News Stories is a daily podcast with five positive, uplifting news stories to brighten your day.

Oral Semaglutide for Alcohol Use Disorder: A Randomized Clinical Trial The American Journal of Psychiatry Accumulating preclinical and observational evidence suggests that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, including semaglutide, reduce alcohol consumption. This phase 2 double-blind, randomized, parallel-arm trial evaluated the effects of oral semaglutide on alcohol craving and consumption among treatment-seeking adults with alcohol use disorder (AUD).  It found that semaglutide did not significantly reduce laboratory-assessed craving or drinks per day compared with placebo but significantly reduced heavy drinking days. Semaglutide also significantly reduced drinks per drinking day, naturalistic alcohol craving, and cannabis use days. Semaglutide reduced alcohol-related consequences at a significantly greater rate than placebo. Significantly more participants in the semaglutide group than the placebo group reduced their risk drinking level by one or more levels. These findings confirm previous results among non–treatment seekers with less severe AUD and suggest that continued development of semaglutide for AUD is warranted.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

This week on the Alcohol Minimalist podcast, I'm revisiting one of the most-downloaded episodes from the archives: a conversation about Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD), physical dependence, and why labels aren't always the most useful place to start.If you've ever wondered, Do I have a drinking problem? Am I drinking too much? Am I addicted? this episode will help you look at those questions with more clarity and less drama.Alcohol Use Disorder isn't determined simply by how much you drink. It exists on a spectrum from mild to severe and is based on how alcohol is affecting your behavior, health, relationships, and ability to control your drinking.In this episode, we talk about:How Alcohol Use Disorder is definedWhy comparing your drinking to someone else's isn't helpfulThe difference between alcohol misuse, AUD, and physical dependenceWhy withdrawal symptoms require medical guidanceHow labels can sometimes keep us from honestly evaluating our drinkingWhy the better question may be: Is alcohol creating results I actually want in my life?An important safety noteIf you regularly experience withdrawal symptoms such as shakiness, sweating, nausea, racing heart, or seizures when alcohol wears off, seek professional medical guidance before abruptly stopping drinking. Alcohol withdrawal can be serious.You don't need to wait for alcohol to become a severe problem before deciding to change.Pay attention to the data. Look honestly at the results alcohol is creating. Then decide what one small change could move you toward a more peaceful relationship with alcohol.Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

Paren data shows Ionna averages $0.37/kWh, the cheapest of 17 networks and about 40% below Tesla and Electrify America's $0.56, though home charging still dominates at more than 90% of sessions and $0.18/kWh.ZEEKR TO LAUNCH 8X AND 9X IN AUSTRALIAZeekr will add the 9X and 8X luxury plug-in hybrid SUVs to its all-electric Australian range from late 2026 into 2027, after passing 10,000 local sales in under two years. The three-row 8X targets the BMW X5 and Range Rover Sport below A$100,000 with 900-volt charging, while the 9X moves upmarket at around A$150,000 with six-seat luxury and Naim audio; both are heavy, road-focused monocoque vehicles rather than off-roaders.LI SHUFU LEAVES GEELY AUTO CHAIRLi Shufu has resigned as chairman of Geely Automobile after 40 years, with An Conghui succeeding him on 18 August 2026 and Li becoming honorary chairman for life while remaining controlling shareholder and chairman of Zhejiang Geely Holding. Gan Jiayue becomes CEO as the group shifts from family-centred management toward professional systems, targeting two-thirds of sales outside China and 5% market share by 2030 across Europe, the Americas and Southeast Asia.LEIPZIG PREPARES FOR NEUE KLASSEBMW halted Leipzig production for a five-and-a-half-week summer shutdown in which over 2,000 contractors replaced 240 hydraulic lifting tables, installed 160 body-shop robots and swapped roughly 1,500 tonnes of steel to handle Neue Klasse underbodies integrating the battery and powertrain. BMW spent a low three-digit million sum on top of nearly €2 billion over five years, though it has not named which models Leipzig will build, as new i3 production began in Munich this month.SPARKCHARGE EXPANDS UK ENERGY NETWORKSparkCharge is bringing its US distributed energy model to the UK, serving autonomous fleets, construction and industrial sites that cannot wait for adequate grid connections. Founded by CEO Joshua Aviv and already operating across North America, the company will combine AI-optimised software, battery storage and on-site generation under new UK managing director James Taylor.FEDERAL PACKAGE TARGETS HEAVY EV BARRIERSAustralia has committed $400 million to heavy-vehicle reforms targeting charging barriers, automated permits, curfews and weight limits, announced by Treasurer Jim Chalmers after a Productivity Commission report found road-freight productivity had stalled for over a decade. The Commission estimated wider access for high-productivity and zero-emission trucks could add up to $4 billion to GDP annually, with electric trucks currently under 1% of Australian heavy-vehicle sales.ŠKODA ADDS V2L AND CAMP MODEŠkoda has added Vehicle-to-Load bidirectional charging, which powers external devices via a 230V boot socket, and an app-activated Camp Mode that maintains overnight cabin temperature with at least 30% charge. The new Peaq will also offer a Relax Package with AGR-certified massaging seats, electric leg rests and Sonos audio, plus a Wellbeing app, ventilated Phone Box and up to four 45W USB-C ports.BEACHMAN TARGETS OLD BIKES FOR ELECTRIC CONVERSIONBeachman Bikes is seeking broken motorcycles for electric conversion, building on founders Ben Taylor and Steve Payne's first prototype, a modified 1979 Kawasaki KZ200 completed in 2020, and a production run of 30 bikes on a 1970s 125cc platform. Having sold the 45 mph '64 as a Class II e-bike, the company is moving to pedal-free low-speed motorcycles in Canada and plans to end US e-bike sales next year to become a moped and motorcycle manufacturer.BRISBANE RIVER E-SCOOTERS STAY UNDERWATERAugust low tides exposed dozens of dumped Lime, Neuron and Beam e-scooters in the Brisbane River, including 24 near the CBD, with Ocean Crusaders having collected around 150 in the past year and storing the waterlogged batteries privately. Water experts warned that lithium, copper, nickel, cobalt and manganese could accumulate in sediment and harm macroinvertebrates, while the council caps operators at 7,100 devices and reportedly earned just over AUD$5m last financial year.

This Episodes Questions Brians Questions: Hey Gents,  As always love the podcast. I just upgrade from a bosch jobsite table saw to a general international 50-220 hybrud thats about 20 years old. It is in great shape and I want to keep it that way. What are some general maintenance things you would initially do with an older saw such as this and what would you do going forward to keep it in tip top shape?  Thanks again! Tyler You guys often talk about pocket hole screws being an easy way to fasten boards together. I find I often have the boards move on me and misalign the joints when I use pocket hole screws. Do you experience this / how do you prevent it? Especially when one of the boards is too long to feasibly clamp it well. Tyler Guys Questions: Hey guys… Indianapolis native woodworker/DIYer here.  Second time to ask a question and unfortunately is one you have probably answered before, but hopefully there is a slight twist to this one. I'm looking to refinish a dinning table that is currently made of oak with a light yellower stain with a clear coat that is knicked up and scratched. The wife would like for the table to be black. I'm interested in using Target Coatings EM6600 - Raven black pigmented laquer. I've never used the pigmented laquer and hopefully it's easy enough for a DIY guy to do a decent job. Couple questions about this: 1. Do I need to sand the old finish off or use a chemical to soften the finish and then sand it off, or can a pigmented laquer go on over and the finish since it is covering over the old colors completely? Or instead of sanding can you use Target coatings HSF5000 primer, surfaced, and grain filler over the top of the old finish? 2. If I do need to sand it at least to scuff it up for the primer to adhere how far back do I need to sand it back? Is it just enough to rough it up, or do I need to be all the way back to bare wood? 3. Lastly has anyone ever used the grain filler primer from Target Coatings? Am I wasting my money on this product? Wood grain showing through the black finish isn't the end of the world, but if we could have a completely smooth finish and little to know grain causing a “feeling” on the table that would be preferable. And maybe we would get that from the laquer building up already. Thanks for the awesome podcast. I've learned a ton from you all! Thanks Jason Im 62 years old been  woodworking for years and would love to use sketch up to help design and build projects. I know that there are versions dedicated to woodworking. My question is do you guys use sketch up? What version do you use?  I know there are subscription fees. Im concerned about the learning curve. Ive watched some YouTube videos  Im a small hobbyist shop doing small projects, built ins and i do a lot of design just in my head. Would love to be able to design and refine projects on the computer before i start building.  Appreciate any advice on beginning this. Thank you, Phil Huys Questions: G'day guys , from Australia. long time listener and I finally have a question. An auction for a closing business appeared on my Instagram feed and it was nearby so I bid and won around 3000 square metres of veneer (roughly 32,000 square feet or 3/4 of an acre.)for the princely sum of $56 AUD or $39 USD. The veneers were shopsawn in house and are 1.8mm - 2.4mm  with some of the walnut 5000mm long and 600mm wide the species also include. - Walnut burl. - Yellow poplar burl. -Maple - Pacific maple. - European Walnut - European oak - Silky Oak - QLD Pepperwood - Palisander Rosewood - Tasmanian blackwood - Fiddleback Tasmanian Blackwood - Blackbutt It's a lifetime supply for me and I have already started to flatten and sort some of the stock , which brings me to my first question. The poplar burl is extremely dry, crinkled, and bubbly. I sprayed it with a homemade veneer flattening solution( alcohol, glycerine and water) and pressed it in cauls and clamps. The veneer definitely flattened out and became pliable and flexible, however. As it has flattened over in the press, it has folded over itself in places, picture ironing over a crinkle in a Shirt i guess. I can send a photo if you want. This is all over the veneer , unlike a shirt I can't just stretch it out and go over it, so my question to you three is, how do I "stretch out" my veneer to get it flat, or is this veneer gone? The rest of the veneer is great, thankfully it's just the poplar burl. Dylan I enjoy your show and have a question to submit.  I am building a cherry slab river table with a black epoxy center.  My question is regarding the final finish coat.  I have done two similar projects on one I used epoxy and didn't care for the plastic look of the finish.  On the second I used Rubio but came out dull and wasn't very durable which is important because my family doesn't always treat wood finishes with the care I would like.  What finish would you recommend that has a sheen in the satin to semi gloss range with good durability?I have a lvlp spray gun if that helps with options.

Europe rose 33% to 450,000 and other markets 97% to 280,000, while North America fell 27% to 140,000 as the US decline widened beyond 30%.ULTIUM CELLS TO RESTART OHIO OUTPUTUltium Cells restarts battery-cell production next week at its Warren, Ohio plant after a seven-month shutdown blamed on falling EV demand and the cancelled $7,500 federal tax credit. The GM–LG joint venture site makes large-format NCMA pouch cells with over 45GWh annual capacity for nearly all GM EVs, and expects headcount to reach 1,400 after cutting roughly 1,330 jobs at closure.VOLKSWAGEN OPENS ID.3 NEO UK ORDERSVolkswagen opened UK orders for the ID.3 Neo on 13 August 2026 from £33,080, or £31,580 after the Government's £1,500 Electric Car Grant, with 50, 58 and 79 kWh batteries giving up to 390 miles and DC charging from 100 kW to 183 kW. The revised hatchback gains new LED headlights, an illuminated badge, the return of physical buttons and rotary controls, a new Innovision system with an in-car app shop, and a 3.6 kW V2L adapter.TESLA PLANS 124-STALL SUPERCHARGER IN SOUTHERN SAN FRANCISCOTesla filed plans on 26 May 2026 for a 124-stall Supercharger at 75 Waterloo Street in southern San Francisco, one of the largest globally and unusual for sitting inside a city rather than beside a highway. The site draws entirely from the grid with no solar canopies or Megapack storage, and includes a 416-square-foot building with two restrooms, vending machines and water fountains open 24 hours.CHARGING FAILURES HIT SIX-YEAR LOWPublic charging failures fell to 12% in the second quarter from 14% a year earlier and 19% in 2023 and 2024, the lowest in the six-year history of JD Power's study, which credited faster chargers and larger destination-style sites. Ionna led DC fast-charger satisfaction on 807 out of 1,000, ahead of Mercedes-Benz on 797, Rivian on 755 and Tesla on 701, against a segment average of 666.CHINESE CAR MAKERS BUILD IN AFRICAChinese car makers are opening African factories to absorb domestic overcapacity and sidestep European and North American trade barriers, with Chery buying Nissan's Rosslyn plant near Pretoria in July and BAIC and Great Wall already operating on the continent. South Africa, Morocco, Kenya, Ethiopia and Ghana are drawing investment through rebates, tax breaks and import bans on fossil-fuel cars, though weak grids, thin charging infrastructure and policy uncertainty still deter long-term commitment.GAC ADDS 44KWH AION UT WITH 320KM (199 MILES) WLTP RANGE IN LATE 2026GAC will add a 44kWh lithium iron phosphate entry version of the Aion UT with an estimated 320km (199 miles) WLTP range, priced under AUD$30,000 before on-road costs.

Three fans - one in the penalty box, one in the last row, one from down the street - relive the night The Hip said goodbye to London.DescriptionAugust 8th, 2016. Budweiser Gardens, London, Ontario - show nine of the Man Machine Poem Tour, and the last night The Tragically Hip would ever play that city. The lights drop, the band walks out, and the first song is 'Opiated'. Wade had more than 40 Hip shows under his belt and had never heard them open with it. Not once. That kind of night.This one is a full table - three Hipstories from three corners of the map. Dave from St. Louis made the 13-hour drive one week after hernia surgery, found two tickets through a fellow fan on the Facebook forum after a StubHub snafu, called ahead about a wheelchair, and walked out with penalty box seats 15 rows from the stage. Treated, in his words, like royalty. Dan from Buffalo rode in with his brother Matt - the same brother who took him to his first Hip show at the Aud in 1995 - on the way to London, Hamilton, and eventually Kingston. And Wade from London didn't have to travel at all. His city, his buddies up from Leamington, dinner on a patio two blocks from the arena with The Hip on the speakers.The panel walks the whole night. The pause after "I'll die before I quit" in 'It Can't Be Nashville Every Night', and the roar that filled it. "It's been a pleasure doing business with you" landing like a ton of bricks in 'Scared'. 'Pigeon Camera' in the first encore, and Wade suddenly finding dust in the air. The four-songs-per-album architecture of the set, the rarely played "In Between Evolution" material, and the 'Little Bones' that was planned for the night and never came - Gord stepping to the mic instead to thank London and remember the first time The Hip played there, when nine people showed up. Why no 'Little Bones'? The way Dave heard it, it had everything to do with keeping Johnny Fay healthy. So there's that.Then the ride home. A living wake that turned into a celebration, a 12-round boxing match where everybody came out a winner, and two separate no-tickets pacts - one made in London, one in Buffalo - that would carry all three of these guys to Kingston on August 20th. But that's a story the episode tells better.(Setlist details confirmed via setlist.fm - right down to the extended 'Daredevil' outro Dave remembered correctly.)The panelDave from St. Louis - a diehard from the middle of America who has chased The Hip through Chicago, Detroit, and Dallas, and who streamed the Kingston broadcast with friends from his living room on August 20th, 2016.Dan from Buffalo - first show at the Aud in 1995, three stops on the final tour, 28th in line the morning Kingston released 200 tickets, and visible in Long Time Running during 'Courage', singing in the front row of the penalty box.Wade from London - 40 plus shows, from a bouncer-assisted first night at Royal Oak at 17 to Budweiser Gardens, introduced to the band by the cassettes his brother brought home from Western on laundry weekends.Come say hiThe Gathering in Kingston, August 20th to 23rd - a mixer at the Merchant Pub, Choir! Choir! Choir! in Springer Market Square, a listening party for "The Tragically Hip Live, July 22 - August 20, 2016", a Long Time Running screening, and a farewell brunch at Morrison's. Email jd@tthpods.com to get on the list.GEDfest Toronto - Saturday, October 17th at the Horseshoe Tavern with Grace, 2, raising money for Campfire Circle and the Murphy Family Fund in Precision Medicine in Pancreatic Cancer. Tickets: gedfest. caGrace, 2 in London - Friday, August 21st at London Music Hall, playing this very setlist front to back. Wade's plug, and a good one.ClosingThanks to Dave, Dan, and Wade for bringing August 8th back to life - the wheelchair, the pacts, and the dust in the air.

Why can two people with similar LDL levels experience radically different cardiovascular outcomes?  In this episode, I speak with Peter Anderson about the possibility that endothelial nitric oxide may be one of the major variables separating these outcomes.We explore whether nitric oxide can be understood as a protective “bank” that is progressively depleted by ageing, hypertension, smoking, insulin resistance, obesity, sleep deprivation, psychological stress and circadian disruption.We also discuss dietary nitrate, rocket and beetroot, oral bacteria, sunlight, ultraviolet A, infrared light, movement, erectile function, flow-mediated dilation, ketosis, statins, calcium scores and the emerging controversy surrounding coronary CT analysis in lean-mass hyper-responders.CONSULT DR MAX

Send us Fan MailIn this next installment of Translational Conversations, we talk with Dr. Danny Winder, a mouse researcher, and Dr. Jenni Blackford, a human researcher, about how their years of collaborations across species have revealed important insights into the different ways Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) can present in individuals. We hear about how their translational research process has led to significant scientific discoveries regarding the relevant brain circuits and sex differences that influence AUD. In this discussion, Dr. Winder and Dr. Blackford share the story behind the start of their collaboration, ways in which their work has inspired one another to explore new directions, and how their continued work together has culminated in the development of a multidisciplinary, cross-species center grant that brings together experts from several institutions around the country.We appreciate Dr. Danny Winder, the Neurobiology Department Chair and Worcester Foundation of Biomedical Research Professor at UMass Chan Medical School and Dr. Jenni Blackford, the Hattie B. Munroe Professor and Associate Dean of Research at the Munroe-Meye Institute of the University of Nebraska Medical Center, for joining us in this discussion on the translational research process, and for sharing their research and important perspectives.Episode Note: This episode was filmed in April, prior to a symposium that Drs. Blackford and Winder presented at a conference in May. In the episode, this symposium is referenced in the future tense as an example of ways that researchers across species can practice the translational process and improve collaborative efforts. Translational Conversations is made possible through support from Biomedical Research Awareness Day, a program of Americans for Medical Progress, and the American College of NeuropsychopharmacologyFollow Dr. Jenni Blackford on Bluesky@jenniblackford.bsky.social@bnsteam.bsky.social@unmc.bsky.socialFollow Dr. Danny Winder on Bluesky and LinkedIn@Dgordonwinder.bsky.socialhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/danny-winder-609123187/Support the showFollow Lab Rat Chat on X!
