Are you finding it difficult to co-parent in this difficult time?
CAFCASS has launched a new Co-Parent Hub (CPH) to assist separated parents. CAFCASS have worked collaboratively with the Ministry of Justice and relationship charity OnePlusOne in creating the Hub.
CAFCASS stands for Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service. CAFCASS represents children in family court cases in England, providing independent advice to family courts concerning children's best interests. Its overarching duty is to safeguard and promote the welfare of children going through the family justice system in three main areas:
The Hub is a free online resource for separated parents. There does not need to be ongoing court proceedings and in fact the Hub has been created to help avoid the necessity of court proceedings. The Hub has been created to assist parents especially during Covid-19 where access to traditional face-to-face support is limited.
The Hub asks parents to create an account where they will be able to access a parenting plan and the Getting it Right for Children programme online, as well as other helpful resources. Separated parents can start preparing their own Parenting Plan together, in the hope that agreement can be made amicably and for the best interests of the child(ren), without the need for court applications.
This resource has been well-received by parents during its two pilots, with 100% of users asked saying that they would recommend it to a friend.
You can find more information about the Hub online and/or create an account using the following link: https://cafcass.clickrelationships.org/. For more information on relationship charity OnePlusOne, go to: https://www.oneplusone.org.uk/.

White Rock City Council rejects building proposal with 80 rental homes
A proposal for a six-storey rental housing building in White Rock was narrowly shot down by a city council last month in 4-3 vote during a public hearing.
The proposal, designed by Billard Architecture, called for 80 secured purpose-built rental homes at 1485 Fir Street, near Peace Arch Hospital and Semiahmoo Shopping Centre. It would have replaced a 1965-built, three-storey building with 25 units on a 22,000 sq. ft. site.
- See also:
This proposal was redesigned three times over the course of two years, with a slightly larger proposal rejected in Summer 2019.
The initial proposal called for 84 rental homes over a total floor area of 70,900 sq. ft., creating a floor space ratio (FSR) density of 3.23 times the size of the lot. But city council took issue with the building's affordability, height, and massing, and the potential traffic impact on the area.
The proponent returned to city council with a smaller project with a FSR density of 2.8, which does not necessitate an amendment of the official community plan (OCP). The number of three-bedroom units was decreased, the building massing was recessed on the upper two levels to reduce shadowing and impacts on views, the lot coverage was decreased to below 50%, and balconies were added to more units.
The number of parking vehicle stalls also fell from 115 to 108.
In their report to city council, city staff indicated their support for the revised proposal, as it aligned with the OCP policies of transitional building forms from the town centre's high-rise towers.
The proponents had also offered generous compensation for residents of the existing building, including reduced rents of between 21% to 30%, depending on the length of duration of their tenancy to date, if they choose to return to the new building. If a tenant did not opt to move back into the building, their one-for-one replacement unit would be available to a new tenant at a 10% reduced rental rate. In exchange, the developer would qualify for community amenity contribution waivers.
However, city council ultimately rejected the revised proposal, over the same reasons that were made in the 2019 rejection. Throughout their term so far, city council has been particularly critical of the height and density stipulated by the OCP.
According to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation's latest report on the purpose-built rental housing market, the vacancy rate in White Rock was hovering at just 0.8% in 2020.

UCLA lost to Oregon by three points — or did it?
Chip Kelly said Monday kicker Nicholas Barr-Mira's 35-yard field goal that was ruled wide left in the second quarter appeared to have gone through the uprights after he watched replays of the kick.
"You ask Nick," Kelly said of a miss that proved pivotal in a game the Ducks won 34-31 on Saturday at the Rose Bowl, "Nick still thinks it was good, but it was ruled differently."
What did Kelly see on the replays he watched after the game?

Citizens who spoke to AYV newspaper before press time last evening are perturbed, wondering if President Bio is now copying the bad examples of former President Ernest Bai Koroma, while expressing dismay over the New Direction's interest in forming new cabinet positions added to some already unnecessary existing positions.
According to many, the incorporation of new ministers and ministries such as Deputy Finance 2, Minister of Gender and Children's Affairs, Minister of Environment, Deputy Agriculture and Forestry 2 are all means of wasting tax payers' money.
People saw President Bio's recent appointment as a blatant copy of very bad example of his predecessor ex-President Ernest Bai Koroma and his past 444-Tolongbo leadership.
It can be recalled that this was part of the same bad moves made by the Koroma Administration that saw the persistent fiscal imbalance with government expenditure far exceeding revenue.
This bad example also landed Sierra Leone in bloated public spending against the background of shrinking domestic revenue.
The Koroma Administration was very much notable for waking up in the morning and incorporating new ministries, ministers and other appointments which many people described as mere waste of tax payers' money on paying salaries to these new appointees.
"President Bio must have been ill-advised on this appointment", an Abacha Street trader commented, adding that it is clear that every government has to cater for 'Job for the Boys' but definitely should not be to the detriment of tax payers.
Incorporating such major ministries at a time when all hungry mouths are open to feed, amidst the existing ugly economy and hardship, yet little or nothing is forthcoming, is a very bad start for the New Direction leadership.
Hope His Excellency President Julius Maada Bio has not forgotten that which he was well notable for standing and advocating against as opposition leader? Bio was so admired by many for his no-nonsense stands against Tolongbo wasting tax payers' money on unnecessary appointments.
Hope President Bio has not forgotten his promise to the people of Sierra Leone, not to repeat Koroma's bad examples?
What is the need for an environment ministry when there is already an existing Environment Protection Agency (EPA)?
How important is the positions of deputy finance 2, gender and children's affairs, and deputy agriculture and forestry 2?
These and many other questions are currently seeking answers on the new reshuffle and appointments.

Chelsea are always on the lookout for new targets to add for the club's youth ranks and according to the Guardian, the Blues -- along with Liverpool and Manchester United -- are monitoring 18-year-old striker Emre Mor. Mor is currently playing for FC Nordsjaelland in his home country, albeit only on a part-time contract and is thus expected to leave in the January transfer window at a cut-rate price.
Most of Mor's highlight reel videos show him getting the ball from deep positions, starting runs preferably from the centre or the right flank towards the opposition goal. This could be a result of a having a strong left foot, which sets him up to score nice goals both from distance and up close. He's also got some good dribbling skills, a low center of gravity, not much size but apparently enough potential talent to excite all the usual suspects who like to snap up promising players.
And then loan them back out.

If verboseness were a competition, The Act of Estimating as Worthless would already be winning by band name alone. Along with this debut track for "Popolopen" and an album called Circadian Tremors, there are enough buzz words flying around that it feels like this could be an elaborate spelling bee or a floral Victorian novel. Either way, the mood is set us right as rain with the unsteady pacing of an untraditional folk song that bleats and builds to a high-toned string pitch that is reminiscent of a run through a wild meadow of dandelions. There are some noodly guitar parts and doubled-up vocal harmonies that serve the song through its larger moments, and as it comes to a close, its density doesn't feel so troublesome after all.

Factors to Consider Before Choosing a Sewing Table Cabinet
Based on our firsthand experience, we know that choosing the right sewing table or cabinet can make a big difference in the quality and comfort of your sewing experience. After trying out various products, we've identified key factors to consider before making your purchase:
- Size: It's important to consider the size of the workspace you require for your sewing projects. Depending on the type of project you're working on, you might need a larger workspace for cutting, measuring, and arranging fabrics.
- Type of Sewing Machine: Not all sewing machines are created equal, and some require a specific type of table or cabinet to function properly. Before purchasing a sewing table or cabinet, ensure that it's compatible with your sewing machine.
- Storage: Consider the amount of storage space you require for sewing accessories, tools, and fabrics. Depending on the size of your collection of sewing materials, you may require a lot of storage space so that you can keep everything organized and within easy reach.
- Budget: Sewing tables and cabinets come in a variety of price points. Determine your budget beforehand and look for options that fit within your budget. However, keep in mind that investing in a quality sewing table or cabinet will save you money in the long run, as cheaper options may be less durable or lack the necessary features to make sewing easier.
Through our trial and error, we discovered that considering these factors will help you to select the right sewing table or cabinet for your sewing needs. Take your time, consider the options carefully, and choose the perfect sewing table or cabinet that will enhance your sewing experience.

Depending on your needs, these alternatives can provide you with the flexibility and affordability to create a suitable workspace for your sewing projects.
Tips for Organizing and Maintaining Sewing Tables/Cabinets
When we trialed various sewing tables and cabinets, we found that maintaining an organized workspace can make sewing projects more manageable and enjoyable. Based on our firsthand experience, here are some tips for organizing and maintaining your sewing table or cabinet:
- Implement a storage system: Invest in containers, shelves, or drawers to store your sewing supplies. This way, you can keep everything organized, easily accessible, and in good condition.
- Clean your sewing machine regularly: Your sewing machine is the heart of your workspace, and it needs to be clean and maintained to provide optimal performance. After conducting experiments with it, we recommend following the manufacturer's instructions to clean and oil your machine frequently.
- Keep your workspace clutter-free: Make it a habit to clean up your workspace after every project. Put away all materials, remove any debris, and wipe down your equipment. This will help keep your workspace ready for your next project.
- Consider using organizers: There are many types of organizers designed specifically for sewers, such as thread and bobbin organizers. Using these organizers can keep your materials and supplies in good condition, extend their lifespan, and help you find what you need quickly.
- Use a cover: Cover your sewing machine or cabinet when it's not in use to protect it from dust and debris. This will minimize the amount of cleaning you need to do and extend the lifespan of your equipment.

There's just something about The Great Land of Autopia that is different from anywhere else. The way the breeze drifts over stationary hulks of metal, rubber and glass. The way the morning light refuses to dance and barely bounces off of a faded base-clear paint job from 30 years ago. The sound of David's bugle at the start of the day. The daily affirmation announcements from Jason over the community-wide loudspeaker system whilst we all salute the Autopian flag. Matt's Skoda-based poetry readings on the local green. The way the hourly chimes of the Great Autopian Clocktower (which are hand-rung by social media guy Peter Vieira with the Grand Clock Mallet) drift over the fumes of markers from Adrian Clarke's evening outdoor automotive design classes in the park.
There's no place like it.
That sense of kinship and community is what inspired me to ask the inhabitants of Greater Autopia for advice regarding my burgeoning fleet a couple weeks ago. The sage advice that came back was dripping with years of experience, and probably trauma. Multiples upon multiples of curse words, bleeding knuckles, empty wallets and rounded-off bolt heads were laced into some of the best and weirdest advice anyone could have ever hoped to receive.
Beyond the imparted wrenching experience was an undertone of brand preferences and prejudice — of model-specific appreciation, ambivalence and spite. What came back was a reflection of your thoughts on my shitbox fleet, but also a reflection of general trends, tone and tenor from you. In a way, it was a small reflection of the preferences of the readership here. Or perhaps I should say a reflection of the Royal We (a noun usually reserved to be utilized by David or Jason…or Adrian Clarke, since he and his kinfolk have a prior preference for limes while at sea and smearing unelected monarch's heads with whale ambergris oil).
So what was said? Well, a whole hell of a lot of shit. But within all the smack-talkin' was also some valuable data.
I went through 183 comments and tallied each. "Junk them all/ burn them all/ crush them all!" counted as a -1pt across the board, regardless of how stupid that comment-type is and how wasteful and trite it makes the commenter appear. To suggest destroying running vehicles, needlessly is dumb and not funny in The Duchy of Greater Gossin-Land (a province within Greater Autopia known for its fine-ass regional <$500 shitboxes).
Behold the final tally:
Sidebar: Also, I know that I'm only a Viscount and not an Earl, but I'm working with Jason to up my title so that I can claim full rulership of The Duchy of Greater Gossin-Land as a breakaway, semi autonomous province within Greater Autopia. He has to source more ambergris oil for the anointing ceremony first.
"I like A, B & C!" counted as a +1pt for those mentioned. Any mention in the positive of any car counted as a +1 and any negative mention a -1pt. They were sorted in descending order by the number of upvotes. Here's what I learned about how y'all feel about my fleet:
1st Place: 2013 Chrysler 300C
Well, it looks like the nicest, newest, most expensive and most technologically advanced vehicle here took the top spot. This may also have been because I specifically called out that it was a family heirloom and gift from my uncle.
So, the data is murky here, since it's not clear if the upvotes were an endorsement of the car on its merits, or an endorsement of "family" (Vin Diesel; Fast & Furious-style). Either way, this fast, modern, suave cruiser isn't hard to love. Especially with its sparkled "Luxury Brown Pearlcoat." It's one of the few and the proud modern cars that even offered a brown paint shade. The Pentastar V6 is more than enough power, the suspension soaks it all up and the ZF 8 speed trans is smooth as butta.
The rear window auto shade has broken off its tracks though and two of the 20 inch wheels are bent from what we believe was dealer oil change tech hooliganism that involved jumping the car over train tracks in Florida. Those items weren't disclosed in the story though, so the four downvotes it received were from readers that apparently love to be contrarians, or that skimmed over the part where I said it was a hands-down keeper.

2nd Place: 1993 Dodge Stealth
Ok, so it's got a fresh "Pearl Blue" paint job (with bodywork done by Yours Truly) and a 5 speed. It's not hard to see how and why this Japanese Dodge got the next-highest number of upvotes. It looks really good, it's fun, and there just aren't that many left (especially in decent, non-ragged condition). Plus this one is a successful Gossin Motors rescue story of a car that had a bad transmission and was in overall sorry shape, but now actually works. Considering the tone towards the car the woman I bought it from had, it's not hard to see this thing being crushed in 2018 if I hadn't bought it for $300 five years ago.
It did get 21 downvotes as well though. It's the base model, it's really not fast at all and parts for this 30yr old machine aren't exactly growing on trees. Many comments were centered around the fact that it was downvoted not due to a lack of merit, but because of it; that this was one of the few that was desirable enough to sell easily for decent coin. Others just were never really moved by these cars and their Mitsubishi 3000GT brethren and downvoted it out of apathy.
Regardless, it shows that the classic appreciation of a shiny, 5-speed, sports-oriented car here is alive and well, regardless of how many shitbox and camper celebrations are happening in the same breath.
Top Stealth comment:
Jack Trade says:
I liked the slightly softer-edged look of it compared to the Mitsu 3000GT stablemate when they both came out. After a bit, they both seemed overwrought in the styling department, esp. the dorky spoiler on the Stealth. Now, I love the low and wide but small sport coupe mojo, if only b/c it barely exists anymore. And pop up headlights, of course.
3rd Place: 1994 Buick Park Avenue Ultra
Yes, I know that everyone loves a good underdog redemption story, but let's just think about our bronze podium finisher here for a minute. This car is non-operational, full of mold and stagnant water and is by far in the roughest shape of any car here. There is no paint left on the hood, as the clearcoat, base coat and primer have all disappeared in the Carolina sun at some point between '94 and today. Regardless, it has beaten three convertibles, a 6-speed sports coupe, a muscle car, a pickup and a full size SUV — all running and in leagues better condition. This current yard sculpture has such underdog-lovability that 19 of y'all chose for it to stay.
This shows just how deep the pure, uncut shitbox love is mainlined in this community and it is glorious.
On the other hand, this beast did receive 27 demerits (it found itself in a 3-way tie for 7th-most downvotes), so there is still a healthy faction of readers that, to quote Homie D. Clown, "Don't play that." Many comments found that it would be an interesting challenge to read about, while most detractors didn't see the point and were concerned for my health due to all the mold.
Work begins on this car in the next week or two. Tots & Pears needed.

4th Place: 2004 Dodge Durango
This truck has treated me better than pretty much every other car that I've owned (there were 120 of them) and the high praise and positive tone was intentional in the prior descriptions of this absolute hoss. I love it. David thinks it's ugly, but that man eats pasta in the shower so take that with a grain of parmesan.
Most of the positive comments regarded it as a competent hauler and tow rig. Not much was said about reliability or even its looks. I suppose this generation of Durango is just so commonplace today and is in the position of maximum saturation that emotions are cool towards it. The first-gen Durangos are starting to disappear, these 2nd Gens are nearing the end of their reign, but there are still a ton of them. The 3rd Gens didn't show up until late 2010, so they haven't been on the scene as long as my golden "Khaki Silver"-painted warrior.
I did also state that this one was a keeper, so the 10 downvotes were from folks who I'm quite certain choose violence when it is presented and who prefer things like catsup and modern Honda "angry cyborg insect" design.
Regardless, the trusty Dodge truck landed a solid midpack finish.

5th Place: 1994 Pontiac Trans Am GT
The bottom of this list is full of cars that had more downvotes than upvotes. These were the top choices that readers picked for me to send the way of the Spectacled Cormorant. I was astounded to see not only that the Buick beat this car, but that it beat it so badly. Yes, there are GM fans and detractors, but for a family luxury sedan (non-running, at that) to beat a V8 performance coupe this badly shows just how unique Autopians are.
There honestly weren't many positive things said about this beautiful green machine. Commenters lamented the auto trans (of course they did) and GM cheapassery of the period. Nobody really spoke of its performance credentials or of just how flapjackin' cool it is to say "I drive a Trans Am. Yup, I sure do. And it's green. It's named after a badass race." (Said in a Joe Dirt tone)
Now I haven't had the opportunity to say that just yet, since I've been busy putting multiple engines in this one, but hopefully we'll get there soon. This badass screamin' chicken is currently at my buddy Chuck's body shop (big Autopian shout-out to Carolina Auto Restorations) getting the stupid Batmobile rear wing deleted.

6th Place: 1993 Chrysler New Yorker Salon
Honestly, 11 upvotes was about 9 more than I was expecting, so for all you "Extended K" homies out there, know that I'm pouring one out for y'all as this is written. Cars of this type are not only out of fashion, but they represent a design approach that is from the past and that will never be "in" again. I, for one, love having a car that fills the answer to: "What if grandma's living room could move?!" and it seems like 11 others feel the same.
Of course there were many comments stating this car is "garbage" and "Chrysler/Stellantis junk" and so forth, but this car rolls on during its 31st year on this planet. Think about the countless much-higher-regarded brands (ahem, BMW, Mercedes, Audi, etc) with much greater-celebrated engineering that have gone to the junkyard in the sky before their 15th birthday, much less their 30th.
Solid engineering in a time-warp package. DMC-12 associations aside, driving a car like this is the real Time Machine. It's the easiest way to experience yesterday and feel how your grandfather did when he drove a "sharp car." (Yes, I'm quoting my own there. Shout out to Joe Toukatly who is reading from The Great Beyond.)
This car is currently getting a new headliner and new exterior upholstery on the landau roof.

7th Place: 2005 Chrysler Crossfire, 6-speed
This is exactly why DaimlerChrysler was forced to sell an excess inventory of this car on Overstock.com when they were not moving off dealer lots. You may think it's the lack of a rear seat, but just glance over at everyone's favorite Mazda to see that the seat issue is not a dealbreaker. Maybe it's the polarizing styling or the worse-than-you-expected cheap-ass interior that Mercedes really phoned in. Maybe it's the manual transmission that's sourced from a Jeep. Maybe it was the high MSRP.
Regardless, to quote David Byrne, it's the "same as it ever was": this car has limited fan appeal. This is a beautiful Deco 2-seater coupe with a stick and a V6 that is very attainable in today's used market, yet the entirety of car culture still responds with the same "meh!" that they always have towards it. The only one here that I know wasn't one of those 38 downvotes was Matthew Hardigree. He gets the Crossfire. He's a real one.
I hate the Mercedes/Chrysler divorce parts issues this car has, but hottdammit that thing is beautiful.

I'm looking at this from the point of view as to which one I would most likely buy should be the one to sell and (I can't believe I'm saying this) it has to be the Crossfire. RWD, manual sportscar for $5,000ish is probably a win in the current market. Plus one appeared on a You Tube video I was mindlessly watching the other day and my wife glanced up from her duolingo quiz to say that looks nice.
8th Place: 1997 Dodge Ram 1500
Well this one was unexpected. One of the most utilitarian and useful vehicles here shows up 5th from the bottom of the list. If you had asked me to predict the outcome of this venture, I'd have said that this pickup truck would've been in the top 5 finishers. And that's just because of its vehicle-type. The fact that it was in great shape and has nice extras such as a teal bench and a surprisingly clean interior support that formerly-held belief even moreso.
Most of the 44 (!) downvotes were in the same spirit as the Stealth. They were votes to sell because it is worth more than the other candidates and is more desirable. Ipso facto, not one downvote comment was critical of the truck's merits; they were downvotes of appreciation.
There was also a refrain of comments stating the Durango could perform most of the truck duties needed and that having both was superfluous. This really hit home with me and I'll tell you more about it shortly.

This kills me but if you really aren't using the Ram 1500 and love it, you should sell it to someone that will love it. That pickup is a true gem. Just please be cautious on who buys it. That truck deserves a good person, not some scum who will abuse it for twisted enjoyment.
9th Place: 2006 Chrysler Sebring Convertible "Touring"
Ever since I showed up on the scene ~3 years ago, I've been extolling the virtues of the Sebring Convertible. I've had nine of them (plus two hardtops), and find them to be a bold and refreshing choice, especially in 2023. This is the last ICE, drop top GT from the #3 U.S. automaker, ever. It is cheap to buy, cheap to fix, and looks damn sexy.
Convincing the commentariat of the above is another story altogether. Interestingly enough, there weren't too many anti-Sebring comments that actually described a demerit per the car's faults. Instead, most were just an overarching, generalized "Nah, they suck"-type of sentiment. Nothing about how a top replacement costs more than a replacement car, or how the Ultradrive trans will surely drive you to drinking without proper ATF+4 services every 75K, or a myriad of other admittedly weak points.
Yes, top-trim models were $30K when new (and that's in early-Aughts dollars; they would be $48K in today's dollars), but they certainly are amongst the cheapest cars you can find these days. The fabric tops are at the age where they are starting to go, and as stated above, replacing them pretty much makes the car a negative-equity value purchase.
This keeps prices low. The entire worth of the car is dependent upon a piece of cloth that it wears like some beanie with an expiration date. It also seems that it will relegate these cars to the same position in car-culture that they have always been in, at least for the next 10 years until hipsters find them cool.
It's not easy being so fashion-forward that you are out of fashion. These are the burdens we Sebring fans bear.

10th Place: 2003 Dodge Stratus Coupe SXT
I have never really understood why these cars are so passed-over and unappreciated. I outlined many of those thoughts in the piece I did on what is one of my favorite cars of all time here. This coupe is low, long and has all the right proportions to this untrained eye. Its "Victory Red" paint confuses many a honey bee in spring into thinking it's a giant flower. It has a fuel efficient Mitsu 2.4L "4G64" 4 cylinder and honestly is a rare type of car on today's roadways. [Editor's Note: I remai a fan of the Stratus Coupe's looks. I also love how it's totally mechanically unrelated to the regular Stratus. -DT].
It's not a boulevard cruiser like a Solara or a pocket hatch like the Eclipse that it's based upon. It's not a muscle car like a Mustang. It's a coupe with performance looks that doesn't really have any performance cred. Highly revered fellow Autopian reader and top-tier commenter Jack Trade said it best last year here:
"But a car like this isn't the two-door version of a sedan, it's something else entirely…a promise of some elemental connection to idealized domestic performance cars of old perhaps."
Exactly, Jack.
There weren't many comments stating any real flaws with this car's condition specifically. Not many thoughts on these cars (and the Sebring Coupe sister car) outside of a general non-preference. That seems to be the best way to describe the market's reaction to them when they were for sale and also the feelings of larger car-culture towards them. There's nothing really wrong, but most people have taken a pass on these cars for the past 20 years.
They are quickly disappearing as buying a Mitsubishi that's labeled as a Dodge comes with its own set of challenges. The cruise control recently went out on my car and after much local searching found that only the local Mitsu dealership had the 20yr-old software to scan the cruise module for codes. Turns out it's either the module itself or the throttle positioning sensor. We'll see.
Anyhow, I'm still driving my $220 car that I bought in 2015, daily, and I love it. Even if y'all never really will. It's ok. We can agree to disagree; it's The Autopian Gentleman's Way.

11th Place: 2002 Jaguar XK8
One of the most interesting aspects of this car is that my boss David Tracy seems to really not like it. Not just that he just doesn't like this particular XK8, but that cars of this type/ilk just don't seem to be his thing.
For example, on our first piece together in 2020, he told me to:
"Get rid of this money-pit right now. Swallow what you've put into it, and move on. I applaud the work you've done to get it looking decent, and I get that it's nice to own a comfortable luxury car (especially one with a ~300 horsepower V8!), but this thing isn't worth your time. Once you get it mended with a new top, you'll likely be in at least $4,000 for an okay Jag with peeling clear-coat; I'm not sure this car is cool enough to be worth that." -DT
…see what he did there right at the end? He said it's not "cool enough," which is an understandable take for a man who appreciates old Jeeps and (seemingly random, when compared to the rest of his fleet) a Mustang & i3. In fact, my idea for an article about rebuilding the engine on my Jag has been on the back burner for over a year now, and I'm hoping to get it to the frontlines of Autopia this summer if I can get my boss amped up on a car that he clearly doesn't care for. Challenge accepted.
The XK8 landed the most downvotes out of any car on this list due to the myriad of issues it has. A 20yr old Jag with issues is not uncommon, even for the Ford era of Jaguar ownership. I honestly do not know how this company has stayed in business this long with how prone their cars are towards maladies and how wicked expensive parts are. It's like they are built to smite their second or third owner once the warranty is up.
Most comments mirrored this, and spoke of general Jaguar unreliability and how much of a fool's errand it would be to try and rehab this example. There were some positive comments though, as this machine is, to quote Fat Bastard, "dead sexy".
I'll keep the car sitting in my parkway for the moment, with plans to start back on repairs this summer. The story for this British Racing Green XK8 isn't over yet.

I've an illogical attraction to the Jag; and it has nothing whatever to do with its innards. I've never touched one, let alone driven, worked on, or owned one. (There's a similar X-something decaying on a local guy's driveway — the only local car I've entertained a fantasy about owning.)
Seems like there just has to be some way to replace all the mundane, normally-hidden mechanicals (including ridiculously-expensive locks & keys) in order to enable simply, affordably, and practically riding around in something that gorgeous. I wouldn't blush at a minivan drive train and pickup truck suspension, if the thing would simply go and stop. (Heat nice, AC optional.) Not a retromod; maybe a practomod: a way to make a lovely bit of automotive sculpture actually usable. (Now there's an article series!)
Those things are, for some reason, my idea of a classy automobile.

A sincere thank you for reading and for taking the time to comment and help out. It was fun having the readership of The Autopian help make this call, and I enjoyed learning more about what our readers' preferences are. Granted, this is only a 12 car field, and these aren't really common vehicles on the road today, but having our collective thoughts tallied is a worthwhile pursuit for future generations of Autopians.

Fraudulent pharmacist sentenced to six years' prison
On 17 June 2022, a former pharmacist was sentenced before the Sydney Downing Centre District Court to more than six years' imprisonment for falsely claiming benefits under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) under a conspiracy to defraud the Commonwealth. The pharmacist conspired to claim more than $19 million from the PBS.
The former NSW pharmacist was sentenced to 6 years and 4 months imprisonment, with a non-parole period of 4 years.
The conviction was a result of collaboration between the Department of Health (Department), the Australian Federal Police and the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions, following information which was received via the Department's tip-off hotline.
In a statement, the Department said it "takes allegations of fraud and non-compliance by health providers very seriously" and that they "recognise that the overwhelming majority of health providers are aware of and comply with their obligations to claim benefits honestly and correctly."
For more information, see the Department's media release here.
Increase in professional boundary notifications – AHPRA Annual Report 2020/21
AHPRA's 2020 – 2021 report provided updates on violations of professional boundaries with patients. Notifications regarding violations are assessed and considered against the relevant National Board's Code of Conduct. Boundary violations came in many different forms. For example, comments made by practitioners to patients during consultations or online.
There was a significant increase of notifications received, from 464 to 568 notifications. Notifications came from three primary professions:
- Medical practitioners (53.2%)
- Nurses (19.5%)
- Psychologists (10.7%)
The seriousness and high risk profile of boundary violation notifications was reflected in AHPRA considering immediate action on 258 occasions and taking immediate action 161 times. AHPRA closed 53.5% of these boundary violation matters following an investigation, 34.5% at assessment and 9.2% after referral to a tribunal, reflecting the serious nature of notifications.
For more information, you can access the Annual Report or view summaries for various areas here.
The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has issued eight infringement notices to Hough Pharma Pty Ltd totalling $106,560 for failing to comply with the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989 (Cth) (Act).
This Act requires Sponsors of medical devices that are approved by the TGA to provide evidence that demonstrates the safety and performance of their products, in this case being COVID-19 rapid antigen tests (RATs). The ultimate aim of the Act is to ensure that medical devices perform as expected and are safe for users. It is also required that Sponsors have a telephone help-line operational to provide customer support services from 9am to 7pm (AEST).
Through investigation, the TGA has verified that there is a lack of customer support available to consumers of Hough Pharma's products. This, in addition to Hough Pharma not meeting deadlines for providing information is why they have received multiple infringement notices.
This compliance action is a reminder to companies producing therapeutic goods to take their obligations seriously. For more information, you can read the Department of Health's full media release here.
OPAN launches 'Ready to Listen' campaign
The Older Persons Advocacy Network (OPAN) in partnership with Celebrate Ageing Ltd and the Older Women's Network NSW launched its Ready To Listen campaign in June, encouraging people to listen to older people when they report sexual assault.
According to estimates, approximately fifty people, many of whom have dementia, are sexually assaulted in Australian aged care homes every week. OPAN suggests that the testimony of people with cognitive impairment can be seen as unreliable by service providers and investigating authorities.
OPAN CEO, Craig Gear, noted that the most recent Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission Sector performance report identified 530 cases of unlawful sexual conduct or inappropriate sexual conduct in the three months to December 2021, noting that the sector has seen little improvement since the recent aged care royal commission handed down its findings.
The Ready To Listen campaign outlines ten ways in which residential aged care service providers can improve their responses to, and prevent, sexual assault. Resources relating to the campaign may be accessed here.
To speak to someone about the risk of abuse in residential aged care, call OPAN on 1800 700 600 or Elder Abuse on 1800ELDERHELP. To read more about the campaign launch, click here.
NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits 2022-23
The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) published its updated National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits 2022-23 (NDIS Pricing Arrangements) on 22 June 2022, which took effect on 1 July 2022.
Under the new NDIS Pricing Arrangements, price limits for most NDIS supports provided by disability support workers will increase by 9 per cent. The decision, made largely in light of the financial impact of COVID-19, the Fair Work Commission's 2022 Annual Wage Review, and the increase in the Superannuation Guarantee Charge, is expected to assist in disability support worker retention and promote participant outcomes more effectively.
The NDIA has also committed up to $514 million for distribution among registered providers of activities of daily living and community participant supports. Delivered as a one-off payment calculated by the NDIA, providers have 28 days to accept the payment and commit to undertaking an audit to demonstrate the amount received relates to actual costs incurred.

Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) devices market
The minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) devices market was valued at US$298.75 million in 2020 and is forecasted to generate US$5 billion by 2030, according to Allied Market Research.
Following the Australian Government's approval of MIGS as a standalone procedure in 2020, the growth of the MIGS devices market specifically within the Asia-Pacific region between 2022 and 2030, is expected to be led by Australia.
GlobalData published its analysis and forecast of the glaucoma surgery devices market on 28 April 2022, predicting a 9 per cent compound annual growth rate for MIGS within Australia by 2030. It reported that the key drivers of this growth include Australia's ageing population, government-led initiatives, and a rise in patient awareness of MIGS.
An overview of Allied Market Research's MIGS report may be viewed here, and an overview of GlobalData's glaucoma surgery devices market analysis may be viewed here.
Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) telehealth services – July 2022 update
On 30 June 2022, the federal government struck various specialist telehealth phone items from the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS). The relevant items mostly impacting the delivery of consultation services to patients with complex and chronic conditions, the elderly and children with autism.
Several medical colleges have referred to the decision as a backwards step for healthcare, noting that curtailing flexible forms of medical care can add to existing inequities experienced by the elderly, some Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, some people living with disability and some members of rural and remote communities.
Information relating to MBS changes effective 1 July 2022 may be viewed here and here.

Coming from the other side of the world to a city in Florida
November 14, 2022
Many students from other countries always have a reason to come to the U.S. It could've been for a better life, a better future, or just a want to start anew. But unlike them, one freshman- Serafima Chebotareva had come here with her family with barely any plans to even come here in the first place. Serafima was born in "…Russia and had lived there for 11 years." She lived in a city called "Sterlitamak" which is one of Russia's largest cities; Serafima lived there for 11 years and has never moved, despite it being a "…hard place to there because of the location of my house." She most likely had lived on the outskirts of the city and it could've possibly been hard to find some places near to her or within walking distance. Despite loving her home country- Russia, her parents decided to move "…to the United States spontaneously, we did not plan to move here, we just went here for travel." Serafima and her family then moved to the United States, with her parents liking the idea "…for me and my sister it was unfamiliar. It felt strange to me for the first time." This led to a culture shock between the two as how she saw "…the people's behavior and a lot of people with different nationalities that was pretty cool." They were flabbergasted at the fact that everyone spoke different languages and looked different, it also led them to see what America offers and find out the various stereotypes many countries had thought about us. Coming to Florida, Serafima already can easily speak "…English and Russian, I also speak German, but I am still learning it." As she is one of the only ones that can speak English really well than the rest of her family, she is mainly the translator for them, and just after "…living in the United States for 3 years," Serafima had mastered the English language which allowed her to be successful at school. She had also enjoyed her time here in the U.S as she loved "…going to the beaches… the freedom… going on trips with family;" This allowed Serafima to be able to know what it's like to be an American living in a foreign land. After coming to Sunlake she also joined the band program and enjoyed "…[going] on mini field trips for band," which allowed her to explore much more of the places here in Florida and be able to do her favorite thing which is doing music! Moving here to Florida from Russia led Serafima to an exciting experience as she learns more about America's culture and ways of living. This sums up, freshman Serafima Chebotareva's life coming from the other side of the world.

TeamStrange I-Cycle Derby Rules (Last update: Nov. 10, 2023) The I-Cycle Derby is not a race, but a challenge that rewards those who master the art of riding specified average speeds over a specified course while contending with what can be challenging conditions. I-Cycle Derby is a timed, on-road enduro competition. What to expect The derby has been held in the Twin Cities metro area since 1949. It has never been canceled due to weather. Most roads used in recent derbies have speed limits of 25 to 35 mph. There could be short stretches of 40 or 45 mph, but the routes are designed to avoid highways. The intent of the derby is to be both motorcycle- and scooter-friendly. Also welcome are three-wheel motorcycles and motorcycles equipped with sidecars. If it sounds easy, note that for the 2019 derby, 16 riders started but 7 finished. One derby, multiple legs The derby is divided into a morning portion and an afternoon portion. Each portion is roughly 25 miles long and roughly 60 to 90 minutes in length. For the morning portion, riders leave the start-finish line at one-minute intervals starting at 10:31 a.m. For the afternoon portion, they leave the same start-finish line at 1:01 p.m. If there are more than 30 registered riders, motorcycles will leave the start-finish line at 30-second intervals instead of one-minute intervals. The derby is divided into multiple legs, or "cards". There are typically two or three legs in the morning portion, and another two or three legs following the lunch break. A rider receives a score for each leg; as explained below, the rider with the lowest total score for all legs is the winner. How it works There is no pre-registration for the derby. Sign-up starts at 9 a.m. The cost is $20 per motorcycle. All participants must sign an American Motorcyclist Association waiver form. A mandatory 10-minute riders' meeting begins at 10 a.m. At the start of the meeting, riders draw a number. That number is the time they will start the rally in the morning and again in the afternoon. For example, a rider who draws number 8 will start the rally at 10:38 a.m. for the morning segment and at 1:08 p.m. for the afternoon segment. Each rider is given a sticker with her or his number. They place the sticker on their motorcycle's headlight or at the top of the windshield. How to follow the route Prior to the morning riders' meeting, each rider is given a card that gives turn-by-turn directions for the first leg. Below is an example of Card One for the 2019 I-Cycle Derby, which started and ended at Diamond's Coffee Shop in Minneapolis. The first card provides the route to the first checkpoint, where riders have their time recorded and where they receive a new card that will lead them to the next checkpoint. The morning route brings riders back to the start, so riders have a chance to warm up and have a bite to eat. Each card starts at 0.0 miles. Riders should reset their odometer or trip meter each time they receive a new card. That way, they will know the exact mileage, to the tenth of a mile, for every turn on every card. Mileages are determined using a GPS. Each of the six cards is about five inches wide and 11 inches deep. Most riders attach a clip of some kind to their handlebars, gas tank or windshield to hold the card so that it can be easily read while riding. Some riders use tape instead of clips. Average speeds At the top of each card is the average speed for that card. Average speeds are generally (but not always) between 10 mph and 30 mph. Note that the overall, average speed for the distance on each card is always below the posted speed limit. Riding the average speed given at the top of the card is key to how the rally is scored and how the winner is determined. Prior to the rally, organizers calculate the precise amount of time it takes to ride the length of each card at its given, average speed.
At the end the derby, the rider with the lowest number of points is the winner. For those calculating to the second, 9:59 a.m. means the times between 9:59:00 and 9:59:59. Likewise, 10 a.m. means the times between 10:00:00 and 10:00:59. Here are three examples:
Note that while the mileage is re-set to zero on each card, the time is not. The time for the three morning cards, and again for the three afternoon cards, is cumulative. In other words, the time for the next card begins at the second that the rider arrives at a checkpoint. If a rider stops at the first checkpoint at 11:01:06, then the time for next card starts at 11:01:07. For example, let's say a rider arrives one minute late at Checkpoint One. That rider receives one point for being a minute late. The rider receives a card for the second leg, resets his or her trip meter to zero, and calculates the perfect arrival time to Checkpoint Two. However, in order to make up the minute lost on the first leg, the rider will now have to arrive at the next checkpoint one-minute sooner than what would have been the perfect time for the second card. That way, the rider regains her or his correct pace for the morning and will receive zero points for the second leg. Checkpoints, clocks and following the derby route Each checkpoint is run by volunteers who record the time, to the second, when each rider arrives at the checkpoint. Once a rider can be seen approaching the checkpoint, the time they arrive is either when they arrive at the checkpoint or when the approaching rider can be seen putting her or his foot on the ground. Stopping with a foot down at a traffic-control device (such as a stop sign or traffic light) that is within sight of the checkpoint is not counted as stopping for scoring purposes. Once the rider arrives at the checkpoint, the rider's time will be recorded and the rider will receive a card with directions leading to the next checkpoint or to the finish line. All times used at the start-finish line and checkpoints are for the Central Time Zone and can be viewed at www.time.gov. Riders are expected to follow the route exactly as given on the cards. Figuring out a possible shortcut and stopping for a rest along the way is like cheating at solitaire. Lyle T. Bear, CEO of TeamStrange, does not cheat at solitaire and neither should you. Riders are welcome to keep their leg cards as lucky souvenirs. When riders should call derby officials A phone number is given at the top of all six route cards. If a rider cannot finish the derby, for any reason, she or he is asked to call the number at the top of the card. This is important. Volunteers, who cannot stay at their checkpoints indefinitely, keep close tabs on how many riders have checked in, and how many are still expected to show up. The checkpoint volunteers and derby officials need to know as soon as possible if a rider has decided to drop out of the rally or has mechanical or other difficulties. If a rider has questions about the route or rules, he or she is welcome to call the number and speak with derby officials. If riders are exceptionally behind schedule What happens if one rider, or many riders, are exceptionally late in arriving at a checkpoint? How long will volunteers remain at checkpoints to record times and hand out route cards, and how far behind can a rider get behind schedule before being declared a DNF (Did Not Finish)? Longtime derby veterans recall one year when the driving conditions were so bad, even the fastest rider was 45 minutes late when arriving at the first checkpoint. To deal with such situations, the I-Cycle Derby has a DNF Window Rule. Riders who arrive at a checkpoint after their DNF Window closes will not have their times recorded and will not receive a card for the next leg. The DNF Window for each rider is 45 minutes. For example, if a rider is expected to arrive at a checkpoint at 11 a.m., she or he has until 11:45 a.m. to arrive at the checkpoint. If the rider arrives later than 11:45 a.m., he or she will not have their time recorded and will not receive a card for the next leg. Should riding conditions be so challenging that the entire field of riders is exceptionally late, I-Cycle Derby organizers have the option of increasing the length of the DNF Window as necessary.

time slipping away
like the last drops of a bottle of rose
the ashes left in a pipe
when you're straight and sober
and sleep seems impossible
the morning light sometimes brings comfort
But you know its another endurance test
its far away
for now
the night forgotten
When dawn is here
and sleep is giving you the fingers
will I ever be natural?
No meds?
It doesn't matter anyway
Fish don't have any feelings
because Kurt didn't have a gun
and Taylor wasn't clean
How the other half live
Rock stars are no different
from us all here.
Here is reality

Sealants are thin layers of resin that are placed on the pits, fissures, and grooves of molars to prevent decay on these surfaces.
The majority of decay on back teeth starts in the grooves and pits of chewing surfaces, especially during the first few years after their eruption. Sealing these surfaces with composite resins prevents this kind of decay.
Sealants are one of the most effective methods of preventing decay on the surfaces where they are placed. Although it is still a possibility that decay may develop on surfaces in between teeth, sealants significantly reduce the overall chance of having cavities.

Foster care researchers in San Francisco are surveying as many current and recent American foster youth as they can to find out what they need and want in the age of the coronavirus and beyond.
They hope to use the data to inform lawmakers, social service providers and others who work with the vulnerable population, said Saralyn Ruff, director of the Foster Care Research Group at the University of San Francisco. USF is partnering on the project with A Home Within, a national nonprofit based in San Francisco that provides psychological counseling to current and former foster kids.
"Too often research is based on information from third-parties such as case managers or foster parents, due to barriers in access with the youth themselves," Ruff said in an email. "Many researchers are doing great work to change this, but more is needed. I wanted to increase foster youth's agency and voice when trying to understand impact and need during COVID-19."
The researchers say they also hope to learn about how the youths' views change over time. For example, what their concerns were before the disease hit, what they are now and what they think they might be later.
Some surveys of current and former foster youth have surfaced some alarming concerns as the pandemic took hold in America. On March 20, amid the first full week of shutdowns in many states, the nonprofit Think of Us announced that responses from 1,400 young people showed food security to be the most pressing issue, trailed by housing and health care.
A survey of recently aged-out foster youth by the national group FosterClub, released on March 27, garnered 172 responses and found that 40 percent had been forced to move out of their home or feared it would happen soon.
"I am hoping for a larger sample across the U.S. so I can look at how possible differences in (shelter-in-place) protocol, regulations and resource availability may affect well-being," Ruff said. "Whether we get 50 responses or 5,000, I think there will be an important story to be told."
Just what happens with the survey results depend on what they reveal," she said. "We have never been through anything like this before, so I will let the results take the lead."
