UCI graduate engineering students at the Advanced Power and Energy Program, Van Wifvat and Blake Lane, take the fiction out of science fiction about ground transportation; slaying some myths and posting us on what’s brewing up about net zero and self driving vehicles. More details are available, where you could spend all week, at: http://www.apep.uci.edu/3/ and  http://www.apep.uci.edu/3/DEFAULT.ASPX. Correction: the earliest autonomous vehicle research was conducted on California’s Interstate 15, not Interstate 5.

Then (min 42:53), Girls on the Run Orange County Board Member Amy Cook tells us how her organization is helping elementary and middle school girls develop essential skills. She has a longitudinal study fresh out to make her point(s). For upcoming events, and information about applying for board membership: https://girlsontherunoc.org/. Girls enrolled in the program will offer their own testimony on a future show that they will help produce. Watch in December for that program.
