Amazon’s Zoox will test its robotaxis in Dallas and Phoenix

Amazon’s self-driving subsidiary Zoox announced on Monday that it will begin testing its autonomous vehicles in Dallas and Phoenix. The company will initially deploy retrofitted Toyota Highlander SUVs with human safety drivers to map the new cities before eventually rolling out its purpose-built robotaxis.Zoox says these two cities will offer a chance to test its sensors and battery performance in unique conditions its cars haven't yet encountered in existing markets. Phoenix experiences extreme heat, dust and high-speed roads, while Dallas has more sprawling roads and varied weather compared to other cities where Zoox operates. The company is also opening new depots in both cities and a command hub in Scottsdale, Arizona which will handle fleet operations, remote guidance and rider support.The move brings Zoox’s footprint (between actual launches and test markets) to 10 US cities. It's other areas of operation are Las Vegas, San Francisco, Seattle, Austin, Miami, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Washington, DC. Amazon acquired the self-driving startup for $1.3 billion in 2020 and has been steadily expanding its reach, with the company saying its fleet has driven over one million autonomous miles and served more than 300,000 riders to date.Zoox’s expansion comes as competition in the robotaxi market intensifies. Alphabet-owned Waymo has continued its rapid spread across the US, while Tesla's Robotaxis launched last year, though those are currently limited to parts of Austin, Texas. US regulators are set to hold a self-driving safety forum on Tuesday, with the CEOs of Waymo, Zoox and Aurora all expected to attend.The regulatory framework has dragged behind the rapid rollout of these vehicles as companies test and iterate the technology on public streets. Just in the last year, autonomous vehicles have struck a child near a school, blocked emergency services responding to a mass shooting and, at least in the case of Teslas, appear to be crashing at higher rates than human drivers.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/big-tech/amazons-zoox-will-test-its-robotaxis-in-dallas-and-phoenix-143828899.html?src=rss

2026 NFL Mock Draft: Post-NFL Draft Combine
2026-03-09

2026 NFL Mock Draft: Post-NFL Draft Combine

For NFL diehards out there, this period without football can be difficult... but thankfully the offseason is just kicking off, and with that comes the multitudes of mock drafts, free agency predictions and the frenzies of the trade season! The Draft Combine has just wrapped up in Indianapolis, and with it came some truly mind-boggling results from some of the best athletes on the planet. As the draft season progresses, there will be plenty more movement on each team's boards, so why not have some fun with some predictions of where players might land come April!Pick 1: LAS VEGAS RAIDERS: Fernando Mendoza QB, Indiana UniversityAfter the Giants beat the Raiders in December of last year, pretty much everyone pencilled this in as the pick to kick it all off. Mendoza is the reigning Heisman winner and was an integral piece to a Hoosiers team that won the National Championship. The Raiders have a glaring need for a quarterback, and this is all but guaranteed to be the opening selection on draft night.Pick 2: NEW YORK JETS: Arvell Reese EDGE, Ohio State University (OSU)The Jets have committed to the rebuild for what feels like the 10th time in 10 years, but maybe this time will be different! With no obvious QB on the board, the logical option for New York would be to take the best player available, and that could be the athletic linebacker out of OSU.Pick 3: ARIZONA CARDINALS: Francis Mauigoa OL, University of Miami(FL)I'm not sure what direction the Cardinals will go in this situation, but reinforcing the offensive line is always a good move. Mauigoa has flexibility at both tackle and guard, and he should be a valuable piece moving forward for the Cards.Pick 4: TENNESSEE TITANS: Carnell Tate WR, Ohio State UniversityAfter drafting what looks like their franchise quarterback last year, the Titans look as if there might be some promise on the horizon. With that in mind, I have them drafting with a similar strategy to the Panthers from last year (an unpopular choice at the time), taking their WR1 of the future in Carnell Tate.Pick 5: NEW YORK GIANTS: Sonny Styles LB, Ohio State UniversityI do not mean this lightly when I say that Sonny Styles might be the closest thing we ever see to Calvin Johnson. As an absolute athletic freak in every sense of the word, with the Giants releasing veteran linebacker Bobby Okereke, he should slide in seamlessly and solidify that defense from day one.Pick 6: CLEVELAND BROWNS: Makai Lemon WR, University of Southern CaliforniaThe Browns are in desperate need of talent at pretty much every position. I could see them drafting the best left tackle in Monroe Freeling, but instead I have them opting for a shifty and reliable receiver in Makai Lemon. Shades of Amon-Ra St. Brown is a great comparison for Lemon, and he should feast out of the slot very early on.Pick 7: WASHINGTON COMMANDERS: David Bailey EDGE, Texas Tech UniversityDavid Bailey is an interesting case-study for a new genre of edge rusher that is emerging. While being undersized at only 251 pounds, he poses a threat to offensive lineman due to his unique combination of burst off the line of scrimmage, and explosive speed when in space. The Commanders could do with help on their defensive line, and this would make plenty of sense.Pick 8: NEW ORLEANS SAINTS: Jeremiyah Love RB, University of Notre DameLove is one of the best running back prospects we have seen in recent memory, and he could feasibly go off the board as high as pick three. Despite this, I have him falling slightly due to positional importance. If things were to play out in this way, the Saints should jump at the opportunity to add someone like him to their offense.Pick 9: KANSAS CITY CHIEFS: Spencer Fano OL, University of UtahThe Chiefs haven't picked this high since they drafted Patrick Mahomes in 2017, so they need to capitalise on the draft capital while they can. Given this, I think drafting a high end offensive lineman could be the best move for them. KC have had issues with the turnstiles on their line since the 2021 Super Bowl, and they can finally solidify that after trading Joe Thuney last offseason and releasing Jawaan Taylor this year.Pick 10: CINCINNATI BENGALS: Rueben Bain EDGE, University of Miami (FL)The Bengals defense has been swiss cheese for a number of years now, and with perhaps the best defensive prospect falling into their laps at pick 10, it's a complete no-brainer.Pick 11: MIAMI DOLPHINS: Mansoor Delane CB, Louisiana State UniversityThe Dolphins had issues all year with their secondary, and Delane profiles as a technically sound corner that should be able to help immediately.Pick 12: DALLAS COWBOYS: Caleb Downs S, Ohio State UniversityLike the Bengals and Dolphins before them, the Cowboys struggled on the defensive side of the field this past season. Caleb Downs is an incredibly polished prospect, but some potential knee injuries and lack of positional importance could see him fall.Pick 13: LOS ANGELES RAMS (FROM ATLANTA FALCONS): Monroe Freeling OT, University of GeorgiaFreeling has been moving up draft boards quickly, and after a strong showing at the combine he seems to be the best pure left tackle prospect. The Rams have a need with the retirement of Rob Havenstein, and he could be their future at the position.Pick 14: LAS VEGAS RAIDERS (FROM BALTIMORE RAVENS): Vega Ioane IOL, Pennsylvania State UniversityThe Raiders need to upgrade their offensive line this season, and Ioane is the consensus best prospect at his position.Pick 15: TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS: Kenyon Sadiq TE, University of OregonWith the looming departure of Cade Otton, the Buccaneers could look to bring in the speedy and strong tight end out of Oregon.Pick 16: NEW YORK JETS (FROM INDIANAPOLIS COLTS): Jordyn Tyson WR, Arizona State UniversityTyson could easily be the best receiver prospect in this draft, but injuries are holding him back from solidifying his position. As the Jets have a war-chest of first rounders in the next couple of years, they could bank on the extreme upside.Pick 17: DETROIT LIONS: Max Iheanachor OT, Arizona State UniversityAs Taylor Decker continues to age, the Lions should look to bring in some youth, and Iheanachor is an absurd athlete who could develop well underneath veteran leadership.Pick 18: MINNESOTA VIKINGS: Dillon Thieneman S, University of OregonThe Vikings have a pretty complete roster, but after losing Cam Bynum and with Harrison Smith getting old, Thieneman would be a perfect replacement to bring some genuine A-grade athleticism into their defensive-back room.Pick 19: CAROLINA PANTHERS: Peter Woods DL, Clemson UniversityThe Panthers took a massive leap forward this year, and adding a high-upside defensive lineman like Woods should only bolster their hopes of contending in the next couple of years.Pick 20: DALLAS COWBOYS (FROM GREEN BAY PACKERS): Akheem Mesidor EDGE, University of Miami (FL)Ironically, I think the best use of the pick the Cowboys got for Micah Parsons would be to bring in some defensive line help. While Mesidor is old, he is incredibly polished and he should be a day one starter for a Cowboys defense in need of improvement.Pick 21: PITTSBURGH STEELERS: Omar Cooper Jr. WR, University of IndianaThe Steelers wide receiver room is pretty much just DK Metcalf, so bringing someone like Cooper Jr. in would be a worthwhile investment for a team still trying to be relevant.Pick 22: LOS ANGELES CHARGERS: Caleb Banks DL, University of FloridaThe Chargers felt the loss of Poona Ford this year. While there are concerns with his injury history, Banks could emerge as one of the best players in this draft due to his combination of size and pass-rushing skills.Pick 23: PHILADELPHIA EAGLES: Jermod McCoy CB, University of TennesseeThe Eagles always seem to land incredibly talented players further down the board than they should be, and I could see this continuing with McCoy. Injury concerns could scare teams, but I think the talent is too great to let him slide much further.Pick 24: CLEVELAND BROWNS (FROM JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS): Caleb Lomu OL, University of UtahThe Browns didn't go offensive line with their first pick, but I think they have to here. While Lomu probably won't stick at tackle in the NFL, he should be valuable on the inside.Pick 25: CHICAGO BEARS: Keldric Faulk EDGE/DL, Auburn UniversityThere is a lot of smoke around the Bears potentially trading for superstar defensive lineman Maxx Crosby. If they are unable to, then Faulk would make an immediate impact in the run-game, with upside as a pass rusher.Pick 26: BUFFALO BILLS: Denzel Boston WR, University of WashingtonNow that the Bills have traded for veteran receiver DJ Moore, they have less of a need at WR, but nevertheless he will not be a long-term option. In this scenario I have the Bills taking a nice compliment to Moore in the tall receiver with strong contested catch abilities.Pick 27: SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS: Emmanuel McNeil-Warren S, University of ToledoWhile the Niners were able to find decent enough replacements for their heavily injured defense last year, that isn't necessarily sustainable. McNeil-Warren is an instinctual and rangy safety that hopefully will help solidify the back-end of the defense.Pick 28: HOUSTON TEXANS: Kadyn Proctor OT, University of AlabamaThe Texans continue to make strange decisions on their offensive line, and so they need to bring someone in. While Proctor is far from a finished product, he potentially possesses some of the highest upside in the draft due to his enormous frame and athletic tools.Pick 29: KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (FROM LOS ANGELES RAMS): Aveion Terrell CB, Clemson UniversityAfter just trading away their all-pro corner to the Rams, I could absolutely see the Chiefs going straight back to the position and drafting a young, cheap and talented replacement.Pick 30: DENVER BRONCOS: CJ Allen LB, University of GeorgiaWith all of the top receivers off of the board, the Broncos pivot to their other biggest need and draft their potential "quarterback of the defense" in CJ Allen.Pick 31: NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS: T.J. Parker EDGE, Clemson UniversityFresh off of an unexpected Super Bowl appearance, the Patriots should look to build on their strengths and bolster their defensive line with the upside of Parker.Pick 32: SEATTLE SEAHAWKS: Brandon Cisse CB, University of South CarolinaThe Seahawks have a number of free-agents in their DB room, and Cisse fits their archetypal mold perfectly: supreme athleticism combined with great physicality on the outside.

Terraforming Mars Isn't a Climate Problem—It's an Industrial Nightmare

Even when the idea of terraforming Mars was originally put forward, the idea was daunting. Changing the environment of an entire planet is not something to do easily. Over the following decades, plenty of scientists and engineers have looked at the problem, and most have come to the same conclusion - we’re not going to be able to make Mars anything like Earth anytime soon. A new paper available in pre-print on arXiv from Slava Turyshev of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, is a good explainer as to why.

US Aims To Exhume And Identify 88 USS Arizona Crew Members Buried As Unknowns After Pearl Harbor

US Aims To Exhume And Identify 88 USS Arizona Crew Members Buried As Unknowns After Pearl Harbor

US Aims To Exhume And Identify 88 USS Arizona Crew Members Buried As Unknowns After Pearl Harbor The U.S. military plans to exhume the remains of 88 sailors and Marines killed aboard the USS Arizona during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, part of a renewed effort to identify servicemen who were buried as unknowns in the aftermath of the assault.A grave marker for an unknown casualty from the USS Arizona is shown at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, on July 15, 2021, in Honolulu. Caleb Jones/AP PhotoThe remains, currently interred at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, will be disinterred beginning in November or December, according to the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency, which is overseeing the project. Advances in DNA technology and a growing database of genetic samples from family members have made it increasingly possible to assign names to remains that could not be identified more than eight decades ago, AP reports.Officials said the process will unfold gradually. About eight sets of remains will be removed every two to three weeks and analyzed. The DNA extracted from the remains will be compared with samples provided by relatives of the missing, many of whom have spent years searching for answers about family members lost in the attack.The bombing of Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941 - known historically as the Attack on Pearl Harbor - destroyed or damaged dozens of ships and killed more than 2,400 Americans. The Arizona was struck by bombs that ignited its forward ammunition magazines, causing the battleship to sink in roughly nine minutes. Of the 1,177 sailors and Marines killed aboard the vessel, more than 900 remain entombed within the wreck, which still rests at the harbor floor and serves as a memorial.Those remains will not be disturbed. The planned exhumations will apply only to individuals buried as unidentified at the Honolulu cemetery.The identification effort builds on earlier work that used DNA to identify hundreds of Pearl Harbor casualties from other ships, including the USS Oklahoma and the USS West Virginia. Officials say the new project reflects both technological progress and the growing participation of families willing to provide genetic samples.Among those following the effort closely is Kevin Kline, a real estate agent in northern Virginia whose great-uncle, Robert Edwin Kline, served as a gunner’s mate second class aboard the Arizona. He was 22 when he died in the attack. For much of his life, Mr. Kline said, his family believed his great-uncle’s remains were still aboard the ship. Only in recent years did he learn that some crew members had been buried as unidentified remains on land.Kline told the Associated Press that he does not assume his relative will be among those identified, but believes the effort could bring a measure of peace to families whose losses have reverberated across generations. For years, the Defense Department had resisted calls to exhume the remains, arguing that identification would be difficult because the military possessed dental records or DNA samples for only a small fraction of the victims’ families. As recently as 2021, officials estimated that samples existed for about 1 percent of the families.Kline helped found an advocacy effort known as Operation 85, which has spent the past three years locating relatives of the missing and encouraging them to submit DNA samples. He says that family members connected to 626 sailors and Marines - just under 60 percent of those still missing - have now provided samples. Only a small number of people contacted declined to participate.The remains will be transported to the agency’s laboratory at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Hawaii for initial analysis. DNA samples will then be sent to the Armed Forces DNA Identification Laboratory at Dover Air Force Base for further testing and comparison. Tyler DurdenSun, 03/08/2026 - 22:40

William “Will” Northern, Cause No. 25-BC08A-0014 (Tex. Bus. Ct. Jan. 29, 2026), the Eighth Division addressed the enforceability of a mandatory buy-sell option clause — commonly known as a “Texas Shootout” provision — and the consequences of failing to respond within contractual deadlines.This case may provide future guidance for business owners, in-house counsel, and practitioners navigating LLC governance disputes.BackgroundMichael Crain and William Northern both served as 50% members in three related LLCs: Northern Crain Realty, LLC, Northern Crain Property Management, LLC, and Northern Crain, LLC. Each entity had a nearly identical company agreement, containing a buy-sell option clause.The relationship between Crain and Northern eventually soured, and in August 2024, Northern exercised his rights under the buy-sell...

‘We’re underwater!’ GOP senator admits polling disaster – then blames Democrats

Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) admitted on Fox News Sunday night that the Republican Party was “underwater” with Americans on the issue of immigration – once one of the party’s strongest issues – but pivoted to blame Democrats for the GOP’s poor polling performance.“How can we get the numbers switched on immigration?” asked Fox News host Trey Gowdy, a former Republican lawmaker himself. “Trump closed the border, and yet we're underwater on that issue!”The leader of the Republican Party, President Donald Trump, has seen his support on immigration tank among voters, particularly among independent voters. According to an NBC News poll from last month, 60% of Americans disapprove of Trump’s handling of immigration, a dramatic increase from the 49% who disapproved last June.While the drop in support for the president on immigration has coincided with his administration’s aggressive and deadly immigration enforcement operations, Ernst instead moved to blame her Democratic colleagues.“We are underwater on that issue, but we have to come together – both Democrats and Republicans – and find a way forward on this,” Ernst said.“So much can be done on this if only Democrats will want to come to the table, but they've demonstrated – whether it's DHS or anything else – that they just simply despise the president so much they don't want to do the right thing for our country.”Trump’s plummeting support on immigration was even reflected in a batch of private GOP polling data obtained by Axios in January, which revealed that 60% of independent voters disapproved of Trump’s immigration policy, polling that was conducted before the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. More than 328,000 migrants have been arrested during the second Trump administration, more than 73% of whom have no criminal record, a stark contrast to Trump’s pledge to target only the “worst of the worst.”

Hitting the word count

Hitting the word count

For a week now, I've thought there's a metaphor hiding inside 35 millimeter slides. The square, flimsy cardboard ones - sometimes plastic or glass - that go in projectors to spew pictures on the wall. Some of the film goes green, red and even purple with age; sometimes, the film tears or collects dirt. I'm in something of a writer's block, though sometimes I doubt my claim to that disease, wonder if instead I just have block. For now, I'll call those 35 millimeter slides memories. It's a low-hanging metaphor that will have to do.There's one way to fix both writer's block and inability to come up with metaphors: just shut up. Easier said than done. But I've noticed, after giving it a spin, that shutting up can actually do wonderful things for your writing. Reticent narrators are read as irresistible, and poems with tight lips are just playing hard to get. As humans, we read absence as desire. That person you love who doesn't feel the same? Let me tell you a secret, but you didn't hear it from me: Yes, they do. The quiet kid in your class is always the genius. Why do we never think they're quiet simply because they're as lost as you are?So I wrote stories of narrators with secrets, to which I never knew the answers and in which it's never really stated the narrator has a secret, and the story doesn't hinge around that. Call it intuition. I wrote poems, too, about one thing that was really another - but not in a metaphoric sense or triumph of Iceberg Theory that the reader is supposed to catch. I wrote poems about one thing which is really another, which in turn is really really something I didn't even know I was writing about. You're crazy if you say my poem is about that, which it was. The proof is in the pudding. Truth-tellers are always the craziest.The thing about 35 millimeter slides is that they're completely black until some light hits them. As soon as a lightbulb in the other room ricochets wavelengths like an eight ball going into the wrong socket, these slides tell all. Isn't that the way we are, too, with our memories?I did not know the way I do this was really because of that - that is, until the light hit, and now that's all anyone can see, whether I want them to or not. The day of yours that was ruined three weeks ago because you got a busted dryer that left your clothes wet is showing in how you hold yourself right now. The thread we're stitched with day to day stays unless we rip it out ourselves. You're a 35 millimeter slide, so you might as well surrender yourself to the light.None of this is about 35 millimeter slides, and it's hardly about writing. I don't know what it's about, which is a lie packed inside a lie like a true Princess Bride poison-cup fiasco. In fact, I only watched the movie in elementary school and can't remember now what the resolution to it was, so it's truly a Schrödinger's Cat, which I don't know the physics behind, so... How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?Let me know if you find out. Regarding any of the things above.Call this article "The art of pretentious, circuitous writing: meaning, metaphors and more for escaping writer's block." Or, the subtitle: "Hitting the word count."Riley Strait is a sophomore majoring in Writing Seminars and English from Olathe, Kan.

How to write a restaurant review?
2026-03-09

How to write a restaurant review?

Nowadays, it's rare to walk into a restaurant just because you're passing by. Whether it's a relaxed hangout with friends or a carefully curated date night, many people decide on the restaurant beforehand. Restaurant reviews on platforms such as Google, Yelp, Beli, Resy and more are crucial in guiding one's choice of dining. A lot of people also choose to write a review of the restaurant after an experience there, helping other potential diners decide whether it's the right atmosphere, food, service and convenience they are looking for. Here's a guide from an amateur restaurant reviewer on how to write a restaurant review, with personal pet peeves included.Do:1. Research. Before you dine at a restaurant, read about the type of food it serves, the formality of the dining and even the history of the restaurant and the neighborhood. Context is important when considering an authentic review.2. Be holistic. Yelp does a good job giving you a checklist of topics you should cover in a review, such as food, service and ambience. Just because the wait time is long in a restaurant doesn't mean it deserves a one-star review. Likewise, one dish being out of stock doesn't mean the overall quality of the food is terrible. I see reviews with only one topic to comment on way too often. These reviews only show one side of the restaurant and are often quite hostile, steering readers in the direction the reviewer biases toward.3. Pictures, pictures, pictures! People love pictures, especially when there is variety. In addition to food, take a picture of the seating area, the menu and other details people may overlook but find important in a review. Personally, I'd love to know how many seats there are and what the most recently updated menu is. It takes one second to help a lot of curious diners!Don't:1. Let your bias lead the way. We all come from different cultures and backgrounds and may have a preference for certain cuisines, but don't let that be a reason to shy away from unfamiliar cuisines. Even if it's of a different culture, look at it with an objective lens instead of already being biased because it's a Mediterranean restaurant instead of American, for example. And please know the ingredients before you criticize a dish. Saying, "The chicken in my stir-fry dish is full of tiny bone fragments, proving the chef was lazy," when it's actually a Chinese culinary tradition to keep the chicken bone in for better absorbance of flavor not only makes you look like a jerk, but also obscures the authenticity of the dish from you. Also, please avoid using the word "authentic" when you haven't personally gone to the origin of the cuisine and tried the actual authentic food. I can't say this Mexican food is authentic just because it tastes good. Many reviewers throw in that word recklessly, even though it's a meaning-rich word that requires experiential backing.2. Give up on a cuisine just because it tasted bad once in a single restaurant. This phenomenon is very human and where microaggressions can stem from. The other day I heard two comments about food adjacent to my culture from someone who's not from Asia, and I was a little shocked."I hate boba. I tried boba once, and it was pink and tasted like Pepto Bismol. I'm never trying boba again.""I don't like tofu. What even is tofu? Is it just a vegan substitution for meat?"Variations of these statements are not uncommon to pop up in a restaurant review. I would say the golden rule is to try at least three bites of a dish before deeming it as distasteful, and to try a cuisine at least three times before never going back. Go to different restaurants of that cuisine. Go during lunch, dinner, the weekend or a weekday. Let that variety give you a better picture before you decide that it's not for you!3. Write a good review just because there's a deal for a free dish or merch. I know it's tempting to follow those little blackboard prompts for "a free tote bag if you write us a 5-star Google review!" (cough cough, Paris Baguette). This behavior encourages false advertising and skews the overall rating of the restaurant. Many clothing stores flag incentivized reviews so readers can interpret them with context. Restaurant reviews, however, rely on an honor system with no labeling to tell you the review was rewarded. At the very least, please disclose the incentivization before you submit that review.Go ahead and submit your first restaurant review!Linda Huang is a sophomore majoring in Biomedical Engineering from Rockville, Md.
