California Retirement Community Is The Latest Stomping Ground For Self-Driving Car Tests

In our golden years, some of us may no longer be able to drive, which is why one of the biggest beneficiaries of driverless car technology could very well be older people. A new self-driving car startup, Voyage, wants to see how the elderly interact with the new technology. This is actually a clever idea.
Voyage's First Self-Driving Car Deployment – Voyage
Our self-driving taxi service launch in a 4,000 resident community
This week, the company deployed a pair of autonomous to a retirement community in California, aiming to test out the tech in an ideal proving grounds and gather feedback from the 4,000 residents whose average age, according to the New York Times, is 76.
Using two Ford Fusions refitted with a suite of autonomous technology, Voyage's pilot program will allow residents of the Villages Golf and Country Club in San Jose to hail a taxi and ride anywhere—for now—along a two-mile loop, the Times reports. Eventually, the goal is to allow residents to summon a Voyage car for free door-to-door service.
It wasn't the easiest time to get the pilot program off the ground, reports the Times.
The agreement to offer self-driving car rides in the retirement community almost fell apart when negotiations hit an impasse over insurance. California requires autonomous vehicles to have $5 million of coverage, but the Villages insisted on 50 percent more coverage because it is a private community with more liability risk.
Voyage found an insurer, the Times reports, but the startup only received coverage after it agreed to share non-identifiable sensor data.
Beyond providing a service for the residents, Voyage says the Villages has superb terrain for testing and improving autonomous tech, with 15 miles of winding roads and a speed limit that maxes out at 25 mph.
"Our communities are wonderful places, but wherever you have roadway, chaos awaits," Voyage CEO Oliver Cameron wrote in a blog post today. "The Villages is no exception, with numerous intersections, crosswalks, lanes, roundabouts, construction, pedestrians, U-turns, one-way streets, animals, cars, and much more."
It seems like an ideal situation—a complex environment to work out and improve upon the technology. It'll be worth keeping tabs on, too, to see how the residents respond to it.

Home News Metro Roundup: Calls for citywide mask mandate come at Vestavia council meeting
Metro Roundup: Calls for citywide mask mandate come at Vestavia council meeting

Vestavia Hills City Hall
After not convincing the Vestavia Hills Board of Education to institute a mask mandate in the school system, a group of parents and residents spoke to the Vestavia Hills City Council on Aug. 9, asking the council to institute a citywide mask mandate.
It is unclear whether a citywide mask mandate would affect school facilities.
The city's communications director, Cinnamon McCulley, issued the following statement after the meeting:
"In deference to the residents who spoke during the citizen comment portion of tonight's City Council meeting, the elected officials, along with City staff, look forward to receiving their written requests and evaluating as warranted. The City of Vestavia Hills will continue to follow mask mandates as issued by the Jefferson County and State of Alabama Public Health Officers. All previous health orders have expired but, if a mask mandate is reissued, we will comply as directed."
Katie Roach, who helped lead efforts to ask the Board of Education questions at their meeting earlier on Aug. 9, said the board has "ignored" doctors and is failing "miserably and spectacularly."
"Our BOE has ignored guidelines they have received from organizations ranging from CDC to ADPH to over 30 local pediatricians, to our esteemed infectious disease experts at UAB," Roach said. "They all say the best way we can keep our children safe is universal masking. What we need is universal masking. It is not the BOE recommending masks to parents. The BOE is charged with leading and making our school safe, and they are failing miserably and spectacularly."
The Board of Education did not allow any public comments at its Aug. 9 meeting, which was called for the purpose of approving personnel actions. However, Whit McGhee, director of public relations for the school system, said Superintendent Todd Freeman and Assistant Superintendents Aimee Rainey and Patrick Martin all stayed for an hour after the meeting to talk to concerned residents individually and as a group.
Brian Malcom said he did not accept that the council could do nothing.
"This council can, as you have acknowledged, implement and impose an ordinance," Malcolm said. "You can do it in a limited fashion. You can say children under 12 need to be masked. Revisit it every 14 days. Our Board of Education has failed us. They have absolutely failed some of the most vulnerable members of our population."
Mayor Ashley Curry told residents they could speak only for three minutes each and called for an adjournment of the meeting after three speakers, saying there was no need to belabor the point that had been made. He encouraged those who wanted to make their voices heard to write to the council and said it could be possible to have the issue taken up at a future meeting.
In other news, the council approved a joint project with Jefferson County to improve the intersection of Crosshaven Drive and Green Valley Road, which will include adding turn lanes, modifying the traffic signal and making the intersection more functional for higher volumes of traffic. The county will pay the city $2.8 million to have the city's contractor, Tortorigi Construction, perform the work, so as to get it done faster than it would going through the Alabama Department of Transportation.
City Manager Jeff Downes introduced his fiscal 2022 budget proposal to the council at the meeting as well, emphasizing an additional $4.2 million in city money to address the city's needs compared to last year's budget. Budget highlights include the funding of additional police and fire personnel, the resurfacing of roughly nine miles of residential streets, and stormwater pipe replacement. Upgrades are also slated for the Vestavia Hills Library in the Forest and the Liberty Park Athletic Complex, Downes said.
Raynor Boles with TCU Consulting provided an update on the Community Spaces Plan, including news that the dog park at the New Merkel House had to be redone due to the grass sinking in during maintenance work. The second phase of Wald Park renovations is wrapping up, while work to reduce the price of the third phase of work continues, he said.
Meanwhile, work at the Vestavia Hills Civic Center (previously known as the community building) likely won't be complete by Nov. 10 because of delays in acquiring construction materials, Boles said.
"We can't get windows; we can't get handrails," Boles said. "Our job is to keep our finger on it and know where things are."
The council also approved emergency work to repair a failed pipe on Oakview Lane at a price "not to exceed" $119,000. The pipe failure resulted in a cave-in that has come into the roadway, rendering it impossible for there to be two cars on that portion of the two-way road at the same time.
In other business, the council:
Approved a temporary construction easement for the Parkside at Dolly Ridge project, where the developer will finish building an access road that will help both the developer and the city, Downes said.
Annexed property at 2429 Altadena Road, as well as at 2625 and 2621 Red Bull Lane.
Approved a resolution authorizing Downes to spend $38,750 for bathroom renovations at Fire Station 3.
Approved alcohol licenses for First Watch and Liquor Shop.
Introduced an ordinance that would rezone 3164 Belwood Drive from multifamily zoning to a planned residential district for the construction of five townhomes. That case will be heard at an upcoming meeting.

This is not a true review. Actually, this bar falls out of the bean-to-bar chocolates I talk about on this site. Mainly because I noticed on the website of Steiner & Kovarik they use Barry Callebaut chocolate to produce their bars, making them a fondeur instead of a chocolate maker. This bar was a gift from my colleague who knows my interest in chocolate. And when you get the chance to taste a Czech made chocolate bar you normally would never get your hands on, one really can't resist to try it, if not only to give every bar a fair chance and to keep things in perspective!
Bean nor origin are noted on the package, meaning this is a blend of cocoa beans of different regions. The ingredients look pretty good at first. 70% percentage is my favorite one. The bar includes cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, soy lecithin and then, oh dear… a number. E476 or Polyglycerol polyricinoleate. This is a real problem for me, right away. Real chocolate doesn't contain this sort of additives. Some investigation reveals it is another emulsifier used in bakery products.
The tablet itself looks good. It has a large imprint of the company's logo, but otherwise it is just a rectangular piece of chocolate. I like that sort of minimalism. The front is shining like newly polished shoes. But the back doesn't. A strange sight.
The aroma is sweet, slightly roasted and perhaps a bit earthy.
The snap is pretty soft. For a 70% bar, it is mighty sweet. A flash of roasted aroma's, some coffee perhaps and some strange cigarette tobacco notes I recognize from other Callebaut based products. The melt is quick and the texture is smooth, without being to clingy. Highly inoffensive as there is absolutely no bitterness or tannins to be found. Other than this, the flavor is monotone and doesn't evolve. The aftertaste remains chocolaty for a while and turns to bitter/sour in the long run.
It surely isn't the worst piece of chocolate I've tried. It doesn't offer the strange off flavors other industrial chocolate may bring, but it doesn't sing either. It is in fact pretty generic.
Bars like this one won't really win over people to try the fine chocolate bars around, as they lack the splendid flavors to be found in good origin bars. But one can't know without trying, so now we know!

Motor Vehicle Policies
All students and employees who bring a motor vehicle and/or bicycle onto campus property are expected and required to be familiar with, and abide by, the regulations outlined in this policy as well as all State and local laws regarding motor vehicles and/or bicycles. Motor vehicle and bicycle regulations will be strictly enforced to keep the campus safe, ensure smooth operations such as deliveries and snow removal, and to maximize campus parking resources. Persons who bring or operate a motor vehicle/bicycle on campus do so at their own risk.
All Anna Maria College faculty, staff, and students who choose to bring a motor vehicle onto campus must without delay obtain a parking decal and permanently affix that decal to the vehicle on the driver's side of the front windshield, or, in the case of motorcycles, at the location indicated by the Officer. It is the vehicle owner's responsibility to ensure that the vehicle is parked in the correct lot. The parking lot map is found at the end of this section. All lots have signage that indicates which color stickers are permissible in each lot.
An "Anna Maria College student" can be any full or part-time, day or evening, commuter or resident, graduate or undergraduate, the person who is taking or auditing a class at Anna Maria College. Consortium students who are taking a day class through cross-registration should refer to the "Consortium Parking Pass" section of this policy.
All visitors are expected to abide by this policy. Visitors bringing motor vehicles to campus must park in the visitor lot or, for specific activities, in designated "event" parking areas. Visitors bringing bicycles to campus are expected to park them in designated areas and to remove them upon concluding their visit.

This form is available to download on the RMV site. This form is submitted by the student when he/she registers his/her vehicle at Anna Maria College. The Paxton Police Officer will issue the Massachusetts registration decal. This is a free decal. A vehicle required to display the Massachusetts registration decal which fails to do so is subject to a fine of up to $200 by the State.
Temporary Parking Permit (students, faculty, and staff)
Students, faculty, and staff having possession of a motor vehicle for a period of less than two (2) weeks may obtain a temporary parking permit from the Anna Maria College Police Services Office or, if a resident student, the Residence Life staff.

What Is Stinging Nettle Root?
How Stinging Nettle Root Works?
Stinging Nettle Root is a powerful herbal supplement that works to naturally boost testosterone with just one capsule daily. The stinging nettle plant itself has been recommended for centuries by naturalists and herbalists to enhance men's health, including increasing men's testosterone levels. Made from wholly natural, plant-based ingredients, this supplement is recommended for men whose physical health and stamina would benefit from an increase of testosterone.
The testosterone boosters in this supplement will go to work right away, though it may take up to two weeks to see the results. That's because stinging nettle does not add an artificial, chemical testosterone supplement in hopes of raising the hormone level. Instead, it works to increase a body's own natural testosterone levels through a scientifically proven mechanism of hormone management.
With regular use, Stinging Nettle Root will eventually allow a user's body to keep its own testosterone levels higher than previously. This increased level will lead to greater energy, reduced healing time, and a naturally easier ability to add muscle mass. Though users must continue taking the product to continue seeing results, gains made while using testosterone boosters like stinging nettle can be kept long after the supplement is stopped.
This stinging nettle nutritional supplement is manufactured by GNC Herbal Plus, which is an abbreviation for General Nutrition Companies. A well-known, publicly traded corporation, GNC was founded in 1935, and it as has been established as an industry leader in the field of supportive supplementation. Currently, its corporate headquarters and manufacturing facilities are in located Pittsburgh, PA. GNC is a leader in both mail-order supplement sales and retail sales, with over 6,000 retail shopping locations across the United States of America. GNC also sells its products in 49 other countries, including Australia, Russia, Bulgaria, and Turkey, where it has found great commercial success.
GNC Herbal Plus has a long history as a reputable supplement manufacturer and distributor and sells a vast array of supplementary vitamins, minerals, herbs, foods, and other healthful dietary boosters. It was the very first major supplement producing company to seek and achieve full certification from NSF, the largest and most reputable of all third-party certification providers. It also has received recognition from the independent tester organization ConsumerLab, which measured the ingredients in a number of their supplements and found consistent quality and labeling accuracy. GNC supplements, including testosterone boosters like Stinging Nettle Root, have been thoroughly tested and proven safe to sell across the world, which explains their international popularity in both online and retail sales.
The root of the stinging nettle plant has been used as a herbal remedy for centuries, especially for the needs of men's health, such as testosterone boosting. This particular supplement, a 500 milligram dose that is taken once daily in a capsule form, is made from the nettle plant's large root, the most potent part of the plant. Specifically, the Stinging Nettle Root acts as an effective testosterone intensifier by preventing the hormone-binding globulin from binding with the testosterone present, as it normally would. Thanks to the chemical agents activated by the supplementary herb, the user's testosterone hormones are freed up to remain within his body, keeping these testosterone levels at an unusually high level. In other words, the stinging nettle increases the biological availability of your own testosterone, boosting the natural levels and maximizing their effects.
Testosterone boosters like Stinging Nettle Root can make a significant difference in athletic performance, physical stamina, and achievable strength, enabling bodybuilders to lift more weight at greater frequency than they had previously. This herbal supplement's effects may not show up in one's workout results right away, as they need some time for the testosterone levels to build up to a naturally higher level. Taken daily, this herbal supplement will begin to act to boost users' testosterone levels within the first week, with full effects evident within two weeks. As an added benefit, testosterone also promotes a faster healing time and reduced inflammation, which will allow for more frequent workouts, further speeding up bodybuilding success.
The greatest advantage of using the Stinging Nettle Root is that it has been thoroughly studied by legitimate, professional medical researchers, and has been proven by them to work. While some supplements are largely unstudied, this one has been used for centuries with positive results. It also has faced rigorous academic investigation and assessment, which affirmed its efficacy as a natural health supplement.
Another advantage of this supplement is that it is all natural and made from plants, without artificial chemicals or unknown ingredients. The stinging nettle plant grows in many places around the world, has been extensively used as an herbal health enhancer by a large number of people, and has been determined to be extremely safe. Plant-based supplements are generally regarded as being less hazardous or risky for one's health.
Finally, this supplement boasts a very easy and efficient routine, making it a good testosterone boosting for customers who don't want a lot of hassle. Instead of mixing powders or measuring out formulas, users only need to take one capsule of this product each day to see the results. A simple routine is usually the most reliably followed, and there is no simpler method for boosting testosterone.
The manufacturer of this supplement, GNC, or General Nutrition Companies, has been independently certified by the internationally recognized public health authority NSF, which represents the gold standard of supplement certification. It can, therefore, boast the highest degree of certification in the industry of supplement production. NSF, a scientific and investigatory group that was founded in 1944, thoroughly evaluated the development, manufacture, and production of GNC brand supplements, and found all of them worthy of their seal of approval.
In fact, GNC was the very first national supplement brand to undergo the rigorous evaluation by NSF, opening up their manufacturing process to independent scrutiny, assuring customers that the product is safe and effective. In fact, NSF is the only supplement certification program accredited by ANSI, the American National Standards Institute, and SCC, the Standards Council of Canada, both national organizations dedicated to maintaining high nutritional product standards. This valuable, and unique, third-party certification means that GNC products have been put through strict, repeated testing procedures.
GNC was also evaluated by the independent scientific group named ConsumerLab. They determined that all of the GNC labeling was accurate and all of the supplements tested were both safe and effectual. Truly independent assessments like these assure customers that this Stinging Nettle Root supplement is legitimate and its manufacturer trustworthy.
I can't believe I got such good results just by adding a simple plant to my diet and exercise routine. I didn't think an herbal supplement could really do much, but boy was I wrong. It took a few days to start working, but my workouts got harder and I worked out more frequently. I started to see really good results after about one week and I'm going to keep taking it and hope it keeps working.
Boom! I made sick gains just by adding this new Stinging Nettle Root to my regular workout routine. I can lift more, and feel awesome all the time. Now I got so much more energy! I'm going to keep taking this stuff forever!
My friends were skeptical that I could really results from taking just one capsule a day, but I did. I felt myself getting stronger and saw my muscles grow bigger pretty fast. I was able to bulk up ten pounds of pure lean muscle thanks to the testosterone boosters in this amazing nettle capsule.
I truly believe that I could feel my own testosterone levels getting higher every day. Once I started taking the capsules I would wake up in the morning with more youthful energy and exuberance. I was able to bring this energy to my bodybuilding efforts. In my decades-long bodybuilding career, this is one of the best and easiest nutritional supplements that I've ever taken.
The manufacturer of this Stinging Nettle Root supplement, GNC, has been repeatedly recognized for superior quality and value, both at home and internationally. Besides earning the coveted NSF certification, GNC also employs a Medical Advisory Board, made up of practicing doctors of different specialties who guide the company on issues of medical concern. Major celebrities, such as rapper and entrepreneur 50 cent, have chosen to partner with GNC because of their reputation for producing the best supplements and bodybuilding nutritional supports. They have also been praised in the media for their charitable endeavors and non-profit work, including their GNC Live Well Foundation, which raises large sums of money for organizations, including the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, by holding large, celebrity golf tournaments and donating the funds.
The primary ingredient of Stinging Nettle Root also has had years of positive press and media praise. This herbal supplement has been written about in many established medical journals, including the Alternative Medicine Review, and in commonly used pharmacological textbooks, such as The Principles and Practices of Phytotherapy.

Voltron Shipping
Language: Auto Selection English
The Voltron characters just have a lot of relatability We made sure when we set up our cast to choose a lot of different personality types. We had the hope that people would find someone they could relate to. And hopefully everyone has found someone that they can see a little bit of themselves in. And I think through that there's maybe a little bit of a role-play element in shipping. It's an extension of creativity. You know, we were all huge fans of varying properties growing up and I think this is sort of a natural progression. I wouldn't be surprised if in a few years we're working with people that say, "Hey, you know, I was a shipper of Klance" or "I was a shipper of this and that." I think the tendency to ship comes from people A: being hopefully inspired by the property and then just wanting to spend a little more time in that world. Or maybe explore some fantasies of their own through characters that are, maybe like them, but not them themselves so there's an element of safety there. The Klance ship is one that maybe comes together from a little bit of that "opposites attract" sort of situation where you have these two characters that really don't get along. And you want to find that path that ultimately leads them to each other. Yeah, I mean, I think the ship between the two of them is, you know, their character arcs kind of have probably the biggest evolution in the show. They started off in one place and their relationship has evolved. And I think shipping them is just continuing that evolution. It's sort of a natural progression. I'm very familiar with being inspired by the things that I like. I definitely drew every Disney princess hanging out with every other Disney princess. I drew all Disney princesses as mermaids and as fairies. I did everything I possibly could with the Disney princesses. You know, this is gonna date me, but if I'm not mistaken, I think my mom might have been the first shipper. And I say that because we used to watch this show called 'Moonlighting.' There was Bruce Willis and there was Cybill Shepherd and they were antagonistic and they sort of hated each other at the beginning of the show. And my mom died for them to fall in love and be with each other. My mom was like, "What's gonna happen? It's gotta be Maddie and David. It's gotta happen. And ultimately it did.

Johann Kühl was 4 years old when Eruption of Krakatoa: Four enormous explosions destroy the island of Krakatoa and cause years of climate change. The 1883 eruption of Krakatoa in the Dutch East Indies began in the afternoon of Sunday, 26 August 1883, and peaked in the late morning of Monday, 27 August when over 70% of the island and its surrounding archipelago were destroyed as it collapsed into a caldera. Additional seismic activity was reported to have continued until February 1884, though reports of seismic activity after October 1883 were later dismissed by Rogier Verbeek's investigation into the eruption. The 1883 eruption was one of the deadliest and most destructive volcanic events in recorded history. At least 36,417 deaths are attributed to the eruption and the tsunamis it created. Significant additional effects were also felt around the world in the days and weeks after the volcano's eruption.
Johann Kühl was 15 years old when Mahatma Gandhi forms the Natal Indian Congress (NIC) in order to fight discrimination against Indian traders in Natal. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was an Indian activist who was the leader of the Indian independence movement against British rule. Employing nonviolent civil disobedience, Gandhi led India to independence and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The honorific Mahātmā – applied to him first in 1914 in South Africa – is now used worldwide. In India, he is also called Bapu and Gandhi ji, and known as the Father of the Nation.
Johann Kühl was 26 years old when Albert Einstein publishes his first paper on the special theory of relativity. Albert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist who developed the theory of relativity, one of the two pillars of modern physics. His work is also known for its influence on the philosophy of science. He is best known to the general public for his mass–energy equivalence formula E = mc2, which has been dubbed "the world's most famous equation". He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect", a pivotal step in the development of quantum theory.
Johann Kühl was 33 years old when The British passenger liner RMS Titanic sinks in the North Atlantic at 2:20 a.m., two hours and forty minutes after hitting an iceberg. Only 710 of 2,227 passengers and crew on board survive. RMS Titanic was a British passenger liner that sank in the North Atlantic Ocean in the early hours of 15 April 1912, after colliding with an iceberg during its maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City. There were an estimated 2,224 passengers and crew aboard, and more than 1,500 died, making it one of the deadliest commercial peacetime maritime disasters in modern history. RMS Titanic was the largest ship afloat at the time it entered service and was the second of three Olympic-class ocean liners operated by the White Star Line. It was built by the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast. Thomas Andrews, her architect, died in the disaster.

The Great Depression was a severe worldwide economic depression that took place mostly during the 1930s, beginning in the United States. The timing of the Great Depression varied across nations; in most countries it started in 1929 and lasted until the late-1930s. It was the longest, deepest, and most widespread depression of the 20th century. In the 21st century, the Great Depression is commonly used as an example of how far the world's economy can decline.
Johann Kühl was 66 years old when World War II: German forces in the west agree to an unconditional surrender. The German Instrument of Surrender ended World War II in Europe.
