Health safety alert: “Medical Experts Urge Not To Take Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen Before the COVID Vaccine,” advised Dr Daliah Wachs MD in a personal blog entry posted earlier today.

Citing an ABC news interview with Dr Simone Wildes, infectious disease specialist at South Shore Medical Center and a member of Massachusetts’ COVID-19 Vaccine Advisory Group, she went on to include the following quote.

“We do not recommend premedication with ibuprofen or Tylenol before COVID-19 vaccines due to the lack of data on how it impacts the vaccine-induced antibody responses.”

Experimental Ford Fusion Hybrid self-driving car used for Domino's Pizza deliveries

Arizona Uber Incident Will Affect Local Autonomous Vehicle Industry

March 21, 2018

Last August, Domino’s Pizza deployed a Ford Fusion Hybrid on the streets of Ann Arbor in partnership with Ford Motor Company. It had the goal of “gauging customer reactions to self-driving delivery vehicles.” [1] Based on reports from subsequent appearance of that same car at the North American International Auto Show just two months ago, consumer reaction was one of “wariness.” [2] Elsewhere in the autonomous vehicle industry, the public was given reason for greater ....

It concluded with the bold assertion that “Smart cities are not a question of If? but, rather, When?” [1,2,3] But now it’s important to take a step back and explain the needs served, problems solved. Among others, Washtenaw Community College (WCC) ....

But then we got clarification that it was never actually used in self-driving mode. [1,2,3,4] Fast-foward to this past January, and Saline ....

September 25, 2017

For those who filed for an extension on their 2016 personal income taxes, the due date of October 16 is now less than a month away. It’s no coincidence that local radio has started this month to amp-up its advertising from tax preparation services. [1] Too many people think that they simply need to knuckle down just long enough to complete their current returns, and then they can blissfully unplug once again until April 15 ....
