A $100,000 robot dog is becoming standard in policing — and raising ethical alarms

32+ min ago (770+ words) By Samantha Kelly, Bloomberg News Spot, the four-legged robot from Boston Dynamics Inc., is perhaps best known for its viral dance routines to songs like "Uptown Funk." But beyond its playful antics, Spot's ability to climb stairs and open doors signals a potentially controversial role as a policing tool. Five years after its commercial debut, the 75-pound, German Shepherd-sized robot is increasingly being deployed by local law enforcement to handle armed standoffs, hostage rescues and hazardous materials incidents " situations where sending in a human or a real dog could be life-threatening. More than 60 bomb squads and SWAT teams in the US and Canada are now using Spot, according to previously unreported data shared by Boston Dynamics with Bloomberg News. Robots in particular have been finding a home among law enforcement agencies. ICE, or US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, recently spent…...

Move. Cheer. Dance. Do the wave. How to tap into the collective joy of ‘we mode’

42+ min ago (630+ words) By ALBERT STUMM, Associated Press With a runway of smoking-hot coals laid out before them, residents in San Pedro Manrique, Spain, steel themselves as thousands of onlookers cheer them on. The crowd roars when they walk across the fire, sometimes carrying another person on their back. Although the walkers and the crowd perform very different roles during the annual June ritual, they report similar feelings: an ineffable feeling of togetherness, as if the entire group becomes one, said Dimitris Xygalatas, a cognitive anthropologist at the University of Connecticut, who witnessed the Spanish ritual years ago as a researcher. He has experienced similar feelings in a stadium while chanting and cheering together with 30,000 fans of his hometown soccer team. Both are instances of collective effervescence, said Xygalatas, author of "Rituals: How Seemingly Senseless Acts Make Life Worth Living." It's that feeling…...

Parker: Rahm Emanuel sounds like a Republican

1+ hour, 47+ min ago (451+ words) Rahm Emanuel wants to take leadership of the Democratic Party and capture its nomination for president in 2028. He shares his thoughts in a recent Wall Street Journal op-ed. It's the first time a Democrat has made me smile since President Bill Clinton announced in his 1996 State of the Union address that "The era of big government is over." Emanuel has a stellar political resume that includes senior adviser in the White House to Clinton, chief of staff to President Barack Obama, member of Congress, mayor of Chicago and ambassador to Japan. He has a reputation for political astuteness, being a tough fighter and being the father of the oft-quoted, "You never want a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it's an opportunity to do things that you think you could not do before." These instincts…...

Ask Angi: What kind of fireplace is right for me?

1+ hour, 55+ min ago (401+ words) There's nothing like a fireplace to set the mood on a chilly evening. Whether you're envisioning the crackle of logs, the convenience of instant flames or a sleek modern design, today's homeowners have four main options: wood-burning, gas, electric and ethanol fireplaces. No fireplace design is more timeless than hearths that burn seasoned logs, filling the room with the unmistakable sights, sounds and scents of a classic fire. For many, no substitute can match the authenticity of crackling wood and the sense of warmth that it creates. That old-fashioned charm comes at a price. Wood-burning fireplaces require chimneys, regular cleaning and occasional chimney sweeping to prevent dangerous creosote buildup. They are less energy efficient than other options because much of the heat escapes through the chimney. Installation is also costly unless your home already has the proper setup. Still, for…...

Editorial: Less-taxing ballot measures making progress

1+ hour, 56+ min ago (571+ words) It's looking more like Massachusetts voters might just get a direct say in how much income tax they pay, and when the state owes them refunds for surplus state revenues. Two business-backed initiatives that would trim the state's income tax rate and increase the frequency of surplus refunds to taxpayers cleared a key procedural milestone last week, with supporters claiming they collected more than enough signatures to qualify for the 2026 state ballot. The Mass Opportunity Alliance, the group behind both bids, announced it collected more than 87,000 signatures for a ballot question that would cut the income tax from 5% to 4%. MOA said it gathered them in time for Wednesday's deadline to submit voter signatures to city and town halls for verification. That's a solid cushion above the nearly 75,000 signatures requirement to advance ballot questions to the next stage. MOA also said…...

"Stranger Things'" fifth and final season kicked off Wednesday after a nearly three-and-a-half-year absence.
