Jeep Agrees to Settlement Over Wrangler, Gladiator ‘Death Wobble’
Jeep, the iconic American automaker, has agreed to a settlement over the much-publicized issue of the "death wobble" in its Wrangler and Gladiator models. The death wobble is a dangerous vibration that can occur in the front end of a vehicle, causing the steering wheel to shake uncontrollably and potentially leading to a loss of control. This issue has been a source of frustration and concern for Jeep owners for many years, and the recent settlement is a major step forward in addressing this problem.

As the plane rose from the runway for what was to prove a smooth and uneventful flight, the team breathed a sigh of relief. The six-seater Piper M-Class had been fitted out at a research and development hub at Cranfield airport in the UK to run on hydrogen, and on this maiden flight in the late summer of 2020 everything worked perfectly. With that flight, ZeroAvia, the California-based start-up that had developed the aircraft with partners in Britain and elsewhere, was ready to move to the next stage in the journey towards zero carbon aviation.
Dismantling
Dismantling is a bit of a misnomer, many would just call it being into mechanics, or fixing things, or a love of automotive, or being a "car-guy". That is not what I mean though. Sure all those things are true to some extent, but the thing I am really good at is pulling things apart to find the problem. I am really good at starting a project, and this short story is the longest answer to the question how did I end up with four dismantled motorcycles.

Two projects demanded a lot of scissor work: one was where a young woman walks down a mountain infested, enchanted?, with fairies, and the other project is where a monster is barreling down a highway in a fast car. Cutting out microscopic fairies and the wild, splayed-hand arm gestures from the first-person perspective of a monster driving his car were among the first really intriguing, real interesting, honestly engaging work that I did while pursuing a career in art. These two projects share one major component, beyond inkwork, painting, composition, and wordless storytelling: the craft behind paper cutting. Each fairy trickster in gowns of leaves and woven spider-thread, each rear-view mirror needing a separate scene painted, reversed and just a tiny bit blurry inside its half-inch-by-three-inch frame, each hand and every strand of arm hair and stray lock of hair caught by the wind, each and every one of these had to get cut, snipped, and teased out of its paper home without losing even a bit of ink, and without including a shred of white, or else risk losing the original composition and vision. Because even if I redraw the damaged piece, well, I'd have to cut that one out too, wouldn't I?

There is beauty all around us, even in what often appears to be the mundane, if only we care to look more deeply, allow ourselves more time to pause, to think.
Carolyn StubbsPublished 5 years ago in WheelThe Emotional Toils of Having a Blown Head Gasket
So, there I was. It was around 10:30 at night, freezing cold outside, driving back from a friend's house. I was lightly buzzed and feeling good; my car had just gotten out of the shop yesterday, and it was running like a dream. It had been having an intermittent over-heating problem. It would run a little warm for a few minutes, then come back down to it's normal operating temperature. It wasn't much more than a nuisance, but I wanted it checked out and fixed. My biggest fear was a head gasket, but upon taking it to the shop, I was told it was nothing more than a sticky thermostat. I could expect as much from a car of its age.
