With a focus on early childhood education, Andres Bustamante and his team at the STEM Learning Lab are busy developing interactive learning spaces to enhance science, technology, engineering and math education in places where families gather – parks, playgrounds, grocery stores, even bus stops. Through collaborative partnerships with schools and community organizations – and by integrating the thoughtful input of local families in their design process – members of Bustamante's group are creating opportunities for young children to learn in ways that are powerful and effective because they are also engaging, joyful and fun. In this episode of The UCI Podcast, the associate professor of education and faculty director of UC Irvine's Orange County Educational Advancement Network guides us on a tour of the playful learning landscapes he has helped install in schools and community locations throughout the city of Santa Ana and explains how and why they're already making a difference. “Skedaddle Back,” the music for this episode, was provided by Nathan Moore via the audio library in YouTube Studio.

Imagine that scene from every apocalyptic asteroid movie—you know the one. The scientist comes rushing in because a "new" asteroid has been detected and is on a collision course with Earth. What happens next? The answer depends on several factors: how big is the asteroid, what is it made of, and how soon is the impact? (That's simplified but roll with it.) NASA's DART mission showed that an impactor can change the orbit of an asteroid, but that tested the hypothesis on the tiny moon of a small asteroid. What if the asteroid is much larger? Scientists at Sandia National Laboratories in New Mexico may have an answer -- a controlled nuclear blast that deflects (rather than destroys) the asteroid. Join planetary scientist Beth Johnson and lead author Nathan Moore for an exciting—and probably terrifying—conversation about how to keep our advanced civilization alive. (Recorded live 5 December 2024.)

A Nobel prize for understanding how genes are turned on and offThe early-morning call from Sweden came on Monday to American molecular biologist Gary Ruvkun for his work in discovering microRNAs, which are essential for regulating genetic activity in plants and animals. Ruvkun says that research based on this work helps us understand basic biology, but has also provided significant insight into disease and might even help us understand whether there is life on other planets. Biologists discover a new microbial world in your bathroomResearchers have found a new biodiversity hotspot. Environmental microbiologist Erica Hartmann and her team sampled showerheads and toothbrushes in ordinary bathrooms, and found a host of bacteria and hundreds of previously unknown viruses. But don't panic: much of this new life are bacteriophages — viruses that infect bacteria — which are harmless to humans and could be potential weapons against the bacteria that can cause human disease. The study was published in the journal Frontiers in Microbiomes.How we might zap an asteroid on a collision course with EarthA new experiment using the world's most powerful radiation source has shown the way to deflecting asteroids with X-rays. The X-rays were used to vaporize some of the surface of a model asteroid, creating a rocket-like effect. Dr Nathan Moore, a physicist at the Sandia National Laboratories in New Mexico, says it's a proof of principle for the concept of deflecting a real asteroid using X-rays generated by a powerful nuclear explosion. The study was published in the journal Nature Physics. Exploring the origins of Australia's iconic, if controversial, wild dogThe Australian Dingo has a fierce reputation as a predator, leading to European settlers attempting to exterminate it in the 19th century. But the dingo's origin story has not been well understood. For years, it was assumed the dingo originated from India, given its similarities to the Indian pariah dog, or from New Guinea. Dr. Loukas Koungolos, a research associate at the University of Sydney, led the study looking at dingo fossils and found out where it likely came from, and how the domestic dogs of ancient people became a wild predator down under. The study was published in the journal Scientific Reports. Can we treat autoimmune disease by manipulating the immune system? Autoimmune diseases like Lupus can be a result of critical immune cells attacking our own bodies. New advances are pointing to ways we might be able to reverse this. Researchers have repurposed a relatively new cancer treatment, called CAR-T therapy that can reprogram immune cells to attack cancer cells, to reset the immune system in patients with lupus to neutralize its autoimmune attack. Dr. Georg Schett and his colleagues, from the Friedrich Alexander University of Erlangen in Germany, were the first to use this immunotherapy to successfully treat lupus patients. That research appeared in the journal Nature Medicine with a follow-up in The New England Journal of Medicine.Other researchers are focussing on understanding — and possibly reversing — what triggers the immune cells to go awry in the first place. Dr. Jaehyuk Choi, from Northwestern University, said they found a molecule that lupus patients are deficient in. In cell culture they demonstrated that correcting this deficiency can reprogram certain immune T-cells to stop directing the attack on the body which they hope could potentially reverse the effects of lupus. His research was published in Nature.

Solar has been getting a lot of attention in the past couple years and counties across Virginia have been passing stringent regulations on new solar developments. This week we spoke with Dr. Lee Daniels, Professor Emeritus of Land Rehabilitation and Dr. Ryan D. Stewart, Professor of Soil Physics & Hydrology, both at Virginia Tech about the effects of solar farms on the land and soil. And in the second half of the episode, Nathan Moore is back to talk about some other solar farm considerations.     Read the white paper: Soil-Site Management Protocols & Best Management Practices (BMPs) for Utility Scale Solar Site (USS) Development and Management in Virginia  https://www.deq.virginia.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/24050/638531957239470000

This is the second in a series of installments that seeks to take a look back at 2023, a year in which a lot seems to have happened and a year in which I think I did not write nearly enough. This review is intended to help me figure out where to prioritize in 2024 and what I need to follow up on. This edition also carries the podcast version of the December 22 edition. That's the one that sought to document City Council's adoption of a new zoning code. I didn't have enough time to produce the audio that day and I'm out of my home studio this week. If you've never heard one of these before, take a listen! The podcasts reflect my love of audio journalism and my vision of what I think local public radio should sound like. They also reflect the implementation of the early vision of the Charlottesville Podcasting Network. I'm producing this series by going through posts archived to Information Charlottesville and seeing what seems interesting and relevant. The flow is loosely month to month, but you'll note I jump ahead here and there. This particular edition reviewed early March through mid-June, but some of the paragraphs provide updates on what happened later in the year. Charlottesville Community Engagement is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Albemarle's FY24 budgetFor the first time in four years, Albemarle residents had the opportunity to comment in public on the $551.5 million budget for the next fiscal year. That figure was actually six percent less than the budget for FY22, as reported at a work session. Some speakers expressed concerns about rising assessments, while others called for additional spending on housing. A thing to watch in the next year is how much Albemarle's real estate assessments increase in FY24 and whether there will be calls to lower the rate. In FY24, the county allocated an additional $240,000 to property tax relief for the elderly and disabled. Charlottesville's FY24 budgetCharlottesville's interim city manager recommended a $226M budget in early March. The budget called for sharp increases in funding for the Human Rights Commission, the Police Civilian Review Board, and the Office of Equity and Inclusion. That additional funding was slated for additional positions as detailed at a work session in March. In March, Charlottesville Area Transit Director Garland Williams sought additional funding to add additional service on Route 6. That has not yet happened. There was no proposed increase in the real property tax rate. By early April, the draft budget had increased to $227.7 million. No one spoke at the public hearing for the first reading of the budget. Some on Council wanted additional spending and an additional $2 million or so was found before the second reading and adoption. Council had previously opted to proceed with the renovation and expansion of Buford Middle School, a project with a price tag north of $90 million. In May, the city learned it would receive $17.5 million from the Commonwealth of Virginia to contribute to the cost. Charlottesville also finalized an economic development strategic plan after being briefed on the document in May“First and foremost, Charlottesville is a diverse and young community with an authentic small-town charm,” said Resonance Vice President Steven Pedigo at the May 15 meeting of Charlottesville City Council. “Charlottesville is home to a highly skilled workforce, a variety of industries, and a really strong healthy economy.” (view the presentation).You can review the final plan here. It lays out five goals, with the first being: “We will invest in entrepreneurship to grow a more diverse, equitable, and vibrant Charlottesville.”Transportation planning continues in the spring In March, City Council heard from the city's new transportation planner. Over the years, the city has been awarded several dozen millions of dollars for projects through the Smart Scale process, all but one of which have not yet made it past the planning phase  At this session, Chambers gave updates on CAT's alternative fuels study and the city's dockless mobility permit program. The latter followed up on a briefing on the sole company that holds a permit. The city was to have negotiated a new contract with VEO. Did it happen? One to follow-up on in 2024. There were lots more transportation updates in March, including information on a series of projects funded through Smart-Scale at the Hydraulic / U.S. 29 intersection. That will include a pedestrian bridge over U.S. 29 to connect high-intensity developments on either side of the eight-lane highway. I reached out to the Virginia Department of Transportation earlier this month for the  latest info. A $20,788,119.29 design-build contract was awarded on April 19. “The construction will be done by Curtis Contracting Inc. of West Point, Virginia,” said Lou Hatter, spokesman for VDOT's Culpeper District. “Wallace Montgomery of Fairfax is doing the design work.”Hatter said the work must be completed by October 31, 2025 and there is an incentive for the project to be completed early. That's something to keep an eye on as this year proceeds. Albemarle County's ability to convert projects from proposal to implementation far outstrips Charlottesville. Another set of intersection improvements is moving through the preliminary engineering stage. These will see roundabouts at Route 53 and Route 20, John Warner Parkway and Rio Road East, and Old Lynchburg Road and 5th Street Extended. These have now been bundled with two other projects and the design public hearing was held in SeptemberAnother intersection project became the subject of concern from the University of Virginia. In March, I relayed information about the conversion of Fontaine Avenue and U.S. 29 into a diverging diamond. Supervisors were told of this critique in April. The Charlottesville Planning Commission learned more at their April meeting when one of their members gave details about how UVA is concerned that the project would not be able to handle traffic volumes when the Fontaine Research Park. That member was telling the appointed body what had been said at a meeting of the Land Use and Environmental Planning Committee. That closed-door body replaced the public Planning and Coordination Council after the latter was disbanded by elected officials in late 2019. The LUEPC committee would later amend their by-laws to make clear that participants were not to divulge confidential  information. More on local regional planning in the next edition. Sustainability and expansion for Charlottesville's public housing agency In March, Council got an update on a plan for the long-term financial health of the Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority. CRHA hired Northern Real Estate Urban Ventures to develop the plan and Council were told the consultants would look into possible futures for both Westhaven and the former auto garage at Avon Street and Levy Avenue. In September, Council got an update on the plan and were asked for $15 million for CRHA to put toward redevelopment of Westhaven. That amount is included in the draft capital improvement program to be included in the FY2025 budget. In mid-April, Council held the first reading on a $5 million request from the Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority to purchase 74 residential units from Woodward Properties. CRHA got another $5 million from a loan from Riverbend Development. These units will be jointly owned by the city and the public housing agency and finances will be kept separate from public housing properties. According to my report from the second reading, the first annual report from CRHA on how the portfolio is doing will be due on January 31. With City Council's permission CRHA continued to purchase single sites across Charottesville using city funds that had originally been allocated for rental assistance. That included one property on Harris Road in the Fry's Spring neighborhood. Albemarle continues to discuss developer incentives to build affordable unitsAlbemarle County Supervisors adopted an affordable housing strategy in June 2021 but has not yet implemented mandatory requirements to build units. That's because ways to incentivize developers to do so has not yet been adopted. In February, Supervisors were briefed on a possible grant program. On April 19, there was another lengthy work-session that covered many different possibilities including additional tax relief. Supervisors expressed interest in hearing from developers. In December, that occurred when the Central Virginia Regional Housing Partnershipthey brokered a roundtable. I've not written that meeting up yet and it's on a long list of follow-ups. Supervisors also heard in April from the Piedmont Community Land Trust about how the $625,000 they received from the county would be used. Albemarle makes major economic development investment in defense sector The largest government land purchase in my time as a reporter was perhaps telegraphed in early May with a report from the Charlottesville Regional Chamber of Commerce that found that the defense sector has a $1.2 billion impact on the region. Two weeks later, Albemarle County announced that Supervisors would approve a $58 million purchase of 462 acres of land around the Rivanna Station military base in order to protect it from encroachment. The purchase of the property from developer Wendell Wood would also be an investment in economic development.“Through the establishment of an Intelligence Community Innovation Acceleration Campus, this campus will be a place for public sector organizations, private sector businesses, and academic institutions to work together to co-create solutions to the biggest challenges facing our nation and the world,” said Supervisor Chair Donna Price at the time. The property transaction had not closed as of this writing. Supervisors had an update in December that is on a long list of stories I still want to tell. Charlottesville continues renaming city schools In March, a committee proposed new names for Johnson Elementary School and Burnley-Moran Elementary School. A month later, the School Board would hit pause on these particular renamings. Descendants of one of the namesakes questioned the research that had gone into that process. An official date change for the transitions of Venable Elementary to Trailblazer Elementary and Clark Elementary to Summit Elementary has not yet been made. Buford Middle School will become Charlottesville Middle School in 2025. Where is this process now? Meanwhile, the University of Virginia's Board of Visitors approved the naming of two new student residence halls after the late Paul Gaston and Ruhi Ramazani. That happened in September, as I reported for C-Ville Weekly. Short items for this edition:* Property assessments were up all around the region, as the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission learned in March. * Charlottesville City Council returned to in-person meetings in May, but would suspend remote public comment in October after a person used their time to shout racial slurs.* In May, Greene County hired Catherine Schafrik as the new administrator. * In May, Charlottesville released the latest data on greenhouse gas emissions. Later in the year, City Manager Sam Sanders announced the creation of an Office of Sustainability independent of Public Works. * In May, the Charlottesville Regional Chamber of Commerce announced Natalie Masri would be the president and CEO. Her last day in the role is January 16. The Daily Progress reported in December that Masri did not she was the right fit for the job. . * In May, Albemarle Supervisors finally filled a vacancy on the Planning Commission by naming Nathan Moore to the Rio District seat. City Council has yet to fill a vacancy left by the resignation of Liz Russell in June. That position won't be filled until at least February. * Albemarle County's review of changes to a policy on siting cell towers went before the Planning Commission in June. They were taking feedback through mid-December. Final recommendations for changes will come out early next year. * Former interim City Manager Michael C. Rogers named former Chesapeake City Attorney Jacob Stroman as the new top legal counsel for Charlottesville in June.  This is a public episode.

Episode Notes Here on the podcast, we like to keep tabs on Dominion Energy. As the largest of only 2 publicly regulated utilities in the state, Dominion is a monopoly. The caveat is that it's a state regulated monopoly, meaning its rates and profits are monitored by a regulatory agency called the State Corporation Commission. But the SCC's power has eroded the past few decades, thanks to a variety of bills that have been pretty soft on Dominion. This year's General Assembly changed that trend. In the final days of the session, the General Assembly passed sweeping legislation on Dominion. Among other things, it changes how profit margins are set and strengthens SCC oversight. That can mean pretty big things for both Dominion, and for ratepayers like us. To step us through the new legislation and its impact, we talk to Charlie Paullin, energy and environment reporter for the Virginia Mercury. But, that's just the latest news — and energy policy is measured more in decades than in years. One big inflection point happened back in 2020, with the Virginia Clean Economy Act. The law set a variety of energy standards, including that our energy providers be 100% renewable by 2050. But setting the standards and meeting them are two different things. So we talked to Kim Jemaine, policy director at Advanced Energy United, about the opportunities and challenges of the Clean Economy Act. This episode is special in other ways as well. This marks the last episode of Nathan Moore as the host of Bold Dominion. Today, Nathan hands off the baton to a new host, Aaryan Balu. You've heard his voice before… he was Bold Dominion's first Assistant Producer, going back more than three years. Welcome back, Aaryan! This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

After a string of fan favourite singles that underperformed on the UK chart, Stock Aitken Waterman were back in the upper echelons with their next trio of releases. Kylie Minogue took them back to number 2 (for a third consecutive time) with the latest track lifted from Kylie. With its French title, "Je Ne Sais Pas Pourquoi" was a more mature offering compared to Kylie's earlier singles. Teamed with a cosmopolitan video and a kick-arse B-side in "Made In Heaven", it was another sure-fire hit. Backing vocalist Suzanne Rhatigan joins us again to tell us about her involvement in the song. We also hear from Nathan Moore about Brother Beyond's second SAW-produced single, "He Ain't No Competition". He also tells us about the band's second album and experience in the US, as well as his decision to join Worlds Apart after Brother Beyond disbanded — and the song that the boy band recorded with Mike Stock and Matt Aitken at the end of the '90s. Then, we chart the journey of Bananarama's remake of "Nathan Jones" from Wow! album track to top 20 hit single.

In the third episode of our opioid use disorder series, we explore therapy, sponsors, and return to use with our patient TJ and Expert Dr. Chan. Share your reactions and questions with us at  Speak Pipe. We might feature you on a future episode!=== Outline ===1. Introduction (0:00)2. Chapter 9: Therapy (individual vs group) (3:29)3. Chapter 10: Sponsors (17:33)4. Chapter 11: Return to Use (21:40)5. Conclusion: (34:39)=== Learning Points ===While resources such as group therapy, NA, and other 12-step programs are not for everyone, they can be important tools to offer our patients. Sponsors can often relate to a patient's struggles with opioid use disorder more authentically than we can as their providers. While a sponsor may not be for everyone, they can be invaluable to walk alongside some patients on their journey. Return to use is hard, both for patients and providers. We must accept that return to use is part of the disease of addiction, and this is not an excuse to pull back on medication treatment or to give up on our patients.=== Our Expert(s) ===Dr. Carolyn Chan is an academic hospitalist at Yale New-Haven Hospital with interests in medical humanities, quality improvement, and addiction medicine. You can reach her on twitter @CarolynAChan. Dr. Lisa Sanders, MD, FACP, associate professor of medicine (general medicine) and author of the popular Diagnosis column for the New York Times Magazine offers her media expertise to the PCP team as a production consultant for the podcast.=== References ===SAMHSA's National Helpline: https://www.samhsa.gov/find-help/national-helpline=== Recommended Reading ===Buresh M, Stern R, Rastegar D.

It takes a certain confidence to auction off your songwriting and production services secure in the knowledge that you'll deliver the highest bidder a hit single. But that's exactly what Stock Aitken Waterman did in 1988. EMI Records bid the most and the artist that received the Hit Factory Midas touch was Parlophone's struggling pop band Brother Beyond. Lead singer Nathan Moore joins us to talk about the group's initial efforts to land a hit themselves. After three singles failed to reach the UK top 40, not even a trip to PWL to work with Harding & Curnow on the original version of "Can You Keep A Secret?" could turn their fortunes around. But everything changed — and we mean everything — for Brother Beyond when a SAW tune was bestowed upon them. Nathan reveals how Motown-influenced track "The Harder I Try" was recorded (and who was involved in the studio session), what the band's reaction was to external writers providing them with a song, why one member quit and what it was like doing all that running he did in the song's flashy music video.

A year ago, a crowd of people stormed the U.S. Capitol in a bid to seek a change in the 2020 presidential election. They were unsuccessful. Two months ago, there was a change in political control of Virginia’s government in another election. There are many statements that democracy is under siege and under threat, and that may be true. But this and every episode of Charlottesville Community Engagement seeks to document the arguments had and decisions made in a complex human civilization that each of us exists within. I’m your host, Sean Tubbs, eager to get on with an update about democracy at the community level around where I live.Sign up for free to learn something new every day about what’s happening: On today’s show:There’s new leadership on both the Charlottesville City Council and the Albemarle Board of SupervisorsGovernor-elect Youngkin nominated one of former President Trump’s EPA administrators to lead natural resources and environmental policy in VirginiaAnother state of emergency is declared in advance of second winter storm to start the new yearNew legislation continues to be filed in the General Assembly, including guarantee life imprisonment for class 1 felonies and campaign finance capsToday’s first Patreon-fueled shout-out:With winter weather here, now is the time to think about keeping your family warm through the cold Virginia months.

Many now never will. “Albemarle County was one of the most severely hit areas across the Commonwealth,” said county executive Jeffrey Richardson. “The storm has been very challenging to recover from for several reasons. One is the rate of snowfall from Monday morning around 6 a.m. to around noon. We measured up to nine or nine and a half inches of snow across Albemarle County so it was a very wide-ranging storm.”Richardson said Dominion Energy activated its mutual aid plan and crews from eight states have been on the scene. He said resources would continue to be rerouted here. “Some of the mutual aid crews that were requested arrived here later than expected and that was due to Interstate blockages,” Richardson said. As of this morning at 10:15 a.m. there were just under a thousand homes in Charlottesville without power. In Albemarle, there are still 17,296 customers who have not yet had service restored. Half of Dominion’s 4,466 customers in Louisa remain unconnected and about a third of Fluvanna County’s 3,556 customers are without power. Continue to consult Dominion Energy’s outage map for the latest information.If you need a center, visit the website communityemergency.org. This is a service of the Regional Office of Emergency Management and has a list of resources, including the centers. Two mobile units will be set up from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. today for people to get water and to charge mobile devices. These are at the Food Lion in the Town of Louisa and the Giant on Pantops. In Albemarle, the centers will be open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. today:Baker-Butler Elementary School at 2740 Proffit Road with showers, WiFi, and electricity available.Greenwood Community Center at 865 Greenwood Rd in Crozet from 9 am to 6 pm. WiFi and electricity available. Scottsville Community Center at 250 Page Street in Scottsville from 9 am to 6 pm. WiFi and electricity available. In Charlottesville, trash pickup and curbside recycling resumed today with the regular Thursday service, but the city warns service may be suspended on Friday if the storm is severe enough to shut down roads. Normal residential service will resume on Monday. Governor Ralph Northam has issued a state of emergency in advance of a second storm storm which is forecast for this evening. The declaration frees up more resources for public safety officials to implement parts of the Commonwealth of Virginia’s Emergency Operations Plan. It also prevents price gouging and allows department heads to waive certain procurement requirements. (read the declaration)Pandemic updateThere’s no longer a state of emergency in place for COVID-19 in Virginia, but the highest surge to date is still underway with another 15,840 cases reported today by the Virginia Department of Health. The percent positivity continues to creep up and is now at 33.6 percent statewide. The percent positivity in the Blue Ridge Health District has also increased to 25.2 percent. There are another 366 cases reported in the district today, and the town hall scheduled for tonight has been rescheduled to January 10. Youngkin selects former EPA administrator for Natural Resources SecretaryGovernor-elect Glenn Youngkin has named a former Trump administration official to oversee the portion of the state’s executive branch that implements policy related to the environment. Andrew Wheeler has been selected as the Secretary of Natural and Historic Resources. Wheeler was confirmed by the U.S. Senate as the administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 2019 and began his career in the first Bush administration in EPA’s Pollution Prevention and Toxics office. Youngkin selected Michael Rolband to serve as the director of the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality. He’s the founder of a firm called Wetland Studies and Solutions Inc that helps developers in the environmental review process. “He founded WSSI to assist economic developers in navigating the Clean Water Act, Chesapeake Bay Preservation Act, and local environmental regulations,” reads the press release. In a release, Youngkin stated that the pair “share my vision in finding new ways to innovate and use our natural resources to provide Virginia with a stable, dependable, and growing power supply that will meet Virginia’s power demands without passing the costs on to the consumer.” The nominations will have to go through the General Assembly. To learn more about these nominations, here are some additional resources:Youngkin confirms his pick for Secretary of Natural Resources and Democrats respond, January 5, 2022Trump EPA head, coal lobbyist tapped as Virginia’s environmental chief, January 5, 2022Andrew Wheeler, Former EPA Boss, Charts a New Course, Bloomberg Law, May 6, 2021More General Assembly billsWe’re now six days away from the 2022 General Assembly and there are more pieces of legislation to review. The closer we come, the more narrow this list will be. For the full list, visit the General Assembly’s Legislative Information System. (view by the day)A bill from Delegate Terry Kilgore (R-1) would terminate the Town of St. Charles and incorporate its assets and debts into Lee County. (HB83)Kilgore also has a bill that would allow out-of-state audiologists to practice in underserved parts of the Commonwealth if doing so as part of a nonprofit organization’s service efforts. (HB84)Incoming Delegate Tim Anderson (R-83) would implement campaign finance limits (see image below) (HB85)Anderson also has a bill requiring the Department of Elections to create a searchable campaign database. The current database is here and there’s also the Virginia Public Access Project. (HB86)Senator Thomas Norment (R-3) filed a bill that would allow localities to apply for funds to maintain historic African American cemeteries. There is similar legislation in the House of Delegates. (SB76)Norment has another bill that would require people in all localities in Virginia to go through an additional 90 minutes of driver education to be spent with parents or guardians. (SB78)Senator Bill Stanley (R-20) filed a bill requiring anyone convicted of a Class 1 felony to be sentenced to life in prison. (SB79)Stanley has another bill that would prohibit elections officials from receiving gifts and funding for voter education programs and other outreach programs. (SB80)Stanley has another bill that would limit the power of the Air Pollution Control Board to consider facts and circumstances when considering reasonability to approving variances, not making regulations. (SB81)If a city reverts to a town, police officers will have the right to buy their motorcycles (SB82)Stanley also has a bill that would require Martinsville voters to approve reversion to becoming a town in Henry County, and they’d have to do so by July 1, 2026. (SB85)The mandatory age for judges to retire would be increased from 73 to 75 under another bill from Senator Stanley. (SB83)Another bill from Stanley would allow the New College Initiative to provide workforce training, a service that must currently be provided by the community college system. (SB84)Primitive campgrounds would be exempted from sanitary requirements under another bill from Stanley, though the Virginia Department of Health could require one toilet for every 75 campers. (SB86)Stanley has three other bills related to animal breeders. SB88 would require entities that breed dogs or cats to document each animal for two years after a sale or transfer. SB89 would prohibit the sale of unneutered or unspayed animals. SB90 would require breeders to offer animals for adoption before euthanization, a requirement that currently only applies to animal testing facilities. Second Patreon-fueled shout-out! The Plant Northern Piedmont Natives Campaign  an initiative that wants you to grow native plants in yards, farms, public spaces and gardens in the northern Piedmont.

The first meeting with newcomers Brian Pinkston and Juandiego Wade was opened by Deputy City Manager Ashley Marshall. “The person elected to serve as Mayor will preside over City Council meetings and may call special meetings, make some appointments to advisory boards, and serves as the head of government for ceremonial purposes and official functions,” Marshall said. “The vice mayor substitutes whenever the mayor is not available.” Wade nominated Snook for the position of Mayor. “I think that he has the knowledge of governance to handle this position,” Wade said. “I think he understands the great importance of the position, and that the eyes of not only the city but a much broader audience will be looking upon him and I think that he understands the importance and knows what it takes to hear everyone’s voice.”Snook said the city needs a vision as well as a management team to implement that vision. “Our Comprehensive Plan sets out a compelling vision for the city that I think all five of us endorse,” Snook said. “A city of equity and opportunity where all people can thrive, a city with a rich and diverse culture where all people are welcomed and valued and respected, a well-planned city of neighborhoods with a variety of affordable housing choices, a city that demonstrates environmental and climate leadership, a government where all of our employees are respected and decisions are made with an eye on equity.”Snook said as mayor he wants to lead the recruitment efforts for a new city manager who will serve a long term. In the meantime he said the Comprehensive Plan has 308 different strategies but there’s no clear sense of how to turn that into an action plan for the government. He said he wants to set up new advisory committees that can provide a jumpstart on the rebuilding process. “In addition to the criminal justice and Marcus Alert task forces, and the Housing Advisory Committee, a climate change advisory committee, a group to work on transit and transportation policy, a group to develop a plan for historic Charlottesville,” Snook said. Councilor Sena Magill had a different nominee in mind. “I would like to nominate Michael Payne for Mayor,” Magill said. “Councilor Payne is very good at bringing people together across many different places. I have seen him put into words clearly thoughts and ideas that are often complex and make them reachable and is someone I know would do a very good job as well.” Payne accepted the nomination.“We are a divided community and divided along race, class, ideology, education level, and this has been a time of unprecedented crisis in a lot of ways,” Payne said.Payne the pandemic has frayed the social fabric but said there has been a demonstrated ability to advance public policy on Council.“Specific issues like implementing our affordable housing strategy, creating a land bank, creating our climate strategy and implementing it, as well as small things we see every day like recent calls from the community to take actions about Fifth Street,” Payne said.Payne said the city needs a well-functioning government, and added that the city has been implementing some of its vision, such as adopting the Future Land Use Map and investing in the redevelopment of the city’s public housing units. He said his leadership would continue that work. Snook got the nod on a 3 to 2 vote. There was only one candidate for vice mayor when Councilor Pinkston nominated Wade.“Juandiego Wade has been a fixture in this community for decades,” Pinkston said. “He served at all levels. He has so much to contribute. He has a courageousness but also a humility that is instructive for me. I’m grateful for his leadership in the city and I think he will make a fantastic vice mayor and I hope others will vote the same.”They did. Wade said he would accept the challenge. “I have kind of fancied myself as the type of person who works behind the scenes to help get things done and look at the fruition of the efforts of myself and others,” Wade said, That vote was unanimous. More on the City Council meeting in future editions of Charlottesville Community Engagement. Price to chair Albemarle Board of SupervisorsThe six-member Albemarle Board of Supervisors has selected Donna Price to serve as the chair for the next year. Price is in the third year of her first term and she was the only nominee. There was no discussion and the vote went quickly. “What sets Albemarle County apart from other local municipalities has been the steady, stable, and long-term leadership of the Office of County Executive and the County Attorney,” Price said. “The foresight of our County Executive, Jeff Richardson, the astuteneess of our county attorney Greg Kamptner and the dedication of innumerable citizens and public servants in an era of anger and while a deadly pandemic that has killed over 825,000 Americans… Albemarle County has not only survived. We have thrived.” Rivanna District Supervisor Bea LaPisto-Kirtley will be the vice chair. The public also heard from new Supervisor Jim Andrews, the new representative from the Samuel Miller District. He said he wants to hear from the public. “I don’t think I have all of the information and the Board doesn’t have all the information or ideas and the public can help,” Andrews said. “Right now I’m wishing for a wealth of great ideas from people.” Supervisors also made appointments to Boards and Commissions. Former Supervisor Liz Palmer has been reappointed to the Albemarle County Service Authority, where she served before being elected to the Board of Supervisors in 2013. Charles Tolbert and Nathan Moore were reappointed. Two UVA officials join Albemarle Planning CommissionThe new at-large member of the Planning Commission is Luis Carrazana, who is employed by the University of Virginia Office of the Architect as the Associate University Architect. Fred Missel, development director at the University of Virginia Foundation, will represent the Scottsville District, replacing Rick Randolph who retired. Julian Bivins, Daniel Bailey, and Karen Firehock were reappointed to their terms representing Jack Jouett, Rio, and Samuel Miller Districts. Charlottesville, Albemarle, and the University of Virginia entered into a Three Party Agreement in 1986 that allowed for UVA officials to serve as non-voting members of the city and county Planning Commissions. Later this year, the Planning Commission will take up a rezoning request at the North Fork Research Park for a rezoning of land to the Neighborhood Model Development district. UVA has selected this as one of three sites where they will work with a developer to built up to 1,500 affordable housing units. The rezoning application submitted in December would see up to 1,400 units at the site as well as a maximum of 3.7 million square feet of non-residential use. The development would span between Airport Road Drive and Lewis and Clark Drive, and would utilize a completed extension of that roadway that the UVA Foundation funded. The Discovery Park is owned by the foundation. Supervisors also delegated some of their members to Boards and Commissions. Jim Andrews will serve on the Rivanna Solid Waste Authority Andrews and Supervisor Price will serve on the Solid Waste Alternatives Advisory CommitteeAnn Mallek will serve on the Rivanna Water and Sewer AuthorityAndrews will serve on the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission and Gallaway will continueNed Gallaway will serve on the Central Virginia Regional Housing Partnership with Diantha McKeel as an alternative Gallaway and Price will serve on the Capital Improvement Program Advisory CommitteeBea LaPisto-Kirtley will replace Mallek on the Historic Preservation CommitteeMcKeel will remain on the Economic Development AuthorityLaPisto-Kirtley and McKeel will remain on the Regional Transit Partnership And this morning, Clerk of Council Kyna Thomas sent over this list of what Councilors are serving on what regional boards. Sena Magill will serve on the Albemarle Charlottesville Regional Jail Authority Board Juandiego Wade will serve on the Charlottesville Albemarle Convention and Visitors Bureau Lloyd Snook and Brian Pinkston will serve on the Darden Towe Park Board, along with Albemarle Supervisors LaPisto Kirtley and Gallaway. Pinkston and Snook will serve on the Metropolitan Planning Organization Policy Board.

Wonder how America's individual inventors persisted alongside corporate R&D labs as an important source of inventions beginning at the turn of the early twentieth century? American Independent Inventors in an Era of Corporate R&D (MIT Press, 2021) by Eric S. Hintz presents a candid look into the history behind the phenomenon. During the nineteenth century, heroic individual inventors such as Thomas Edison and Alexander Graham Bell created entirely new industries while achieving widespread fame. However, by 1927, a New York Times editorial suggested that teams of corporate scientists at General Electric, AT&T, and DuPont had replaced the solitary "garret inventor" as the wellspring of invention. But these inventors never disappeared. In this book, Eric Hintz argues that lesser-known inventors such as Chester Carlson (Xerox photocopier), Samuel Ruben (Duracell batteries), and Earl Tupper (Tupperware) continued to develop important technologies throughout the twentieth century. Moreover, Hintz explains how independent inventors gradually fell from public view as corporate brands increasingly became associated with high-tech innovation. Focusing on the years from 1890 to 1950, Hintz documents how American independent inventors competed (and sometimes partnered) with their corporate rivals, adopted a variety of flexible commercialization strategies, established a series of short-lived professional groups, lobbied for fairer patent laws, and mobilized for two world wars. After 1950, the experiences of independent inventors generally mirrored the patterns of their predecessors, and they continued to be overshadowed during corporate R&D's postwar golden age. The independents enjoyed a resurgence, however, at the turn of the twenty-first century, as Apple's Steve Jobs and Shark Tank's Lori Greiner heralded a new generation of heroic inventor-entrepreneurs. By recovering the stories of a group once considered extinct, Hintz shows that independent inventors have long been—and remain—an important source of new technologies.
