A
I believe in
the power of holding on. What do I mean by holding
on?
Hugging, or holding on, is the
power we
possess when we put our arms
around someone. It can change
relationships, makes a patient a person, an
acquaintance a friend.
My
grandmother taught me about holding on, whenever
she gathered
me
in
her
strong,
loving
Irish
arms.
She
always
hugged
even
when
her
back
became
mother
hugs
my
children
the
same
way
—
heart
open and arms wide, breathing them into
her soul.
Once I became aware of its
power, I started experimenting: I held my
mother
in law a
moment too long then moved onto my sisters law,
aunts,
nieces, nephews, and cousins. I
tried it with a friend who had made my life
rich with laughter, but I was too
embarrassed to tell her, and acquaintances
that
I
wanted
to
be
friends
with.
Some
were
bothered,
others
accepting,
but
all
had
one
thing
in
common
—
the
next
time
I
hugged
them,
they
hugged me back.
For me,
holding on has become more than a physical
interaction;
it
has
become
a
way
of
thinking.
My
answer
to
life's
dilemmas
and
tough
choices,
it's
a
mixture
of
acceptance,
forgiveness,
and
patience
—
not
always easy or understood but it guides
me to be quiet and listen, look for
the
good, have a sense of humor and laugh, stop
worrying and be patient
because if I
let it, something will change.
I've
often wondered how different my life would have
been if I hadn't
learned the power of
holding on. If during that time in my life, when I
was
crumbling into myself, my mother
had stopped holding on to me, I might
have missed something so vital to my
existence. I believe that a hug is like
a battery
charger
—
a good one can keep
me going for a long time.

Preparing Cities for Robot
Cars
The
possibility
of
self
?
driving
robot
cars
has
often
seemed
like
a
futurist's dream, years
away from materializing in the real world. Well,
the
future
is
apparently
now.
The
California
Department
of
Motor
Vehicles
began giving permits in April for
companies to test truly self-
driving
cars
on
public
roads.
The
state
also
cleared
the
way
for
companies
to
sell or
rent
out
self-
driving
cars,
and
for
companies
to
operate
driverless
taxi
services.
California,
it
should
be
noted,
isn't
leading
the
way
here.
Companies have been testing their
vehicles in cities across the country. It's
hard to predict when driverless cars
will be everywhere on our roads. But
however
long
it
takes,
the
technology
has
the
potential
to
change
our
transportation systems and our cities,
for better or for worse, depending on
how the transformation is regulated.
While
much
of
the debate so
far
has been
focused on the
safety
of
driverless
cars(and
rightfully
so),
policymakers
also
should
be
talking
about
how
self-
driving
vehicles
can
help
reduce
traffic
jams,
cut
emissions(
排放
)
and
offer
more
convenient,
affordable
mobility
options.
The
arrival
of
driverless
vehicles
is
a
chance
to
make
sure
that
those
vehicles are environmentally friendly
and more shared.
Do we want to copy
—
or even worsen
—
the traffic of today with
driverless
cars?
Imagine
a
future
where
most
adults
own
individual
self-
driving vehicles. They
tolerate long, slow journeys to and from work
on packed highways because they can
work, entertain themselves or sleep
on
the ride, which encourages urban spread. They take
their driverless car
to an appointment
and set the empty vehicle to circle the building
to avoid
paying for parking. Instead of
walking a few blocks to pick up a child or
the
dry
cleaning,
they
send
the
self
?
driving
minibus.
The
convenience
even
leads
fewer
people
to
take
public
transport
—
an
unwelcome
side
effect researchers have already found
in ride
?
hailing(
叫
车
) services.
A
study
from
the
University
of
California
at
Davis
suggested
that
replacing
petrol-
powered
private
cars
worldwide
with
electric,
self
?
driving
and
shared
systems
could
reduce
carbon
emissions
from
transportation 80% and cut the cost of
transportation infrastructure(
基础设
施
)
and
operations
40%
by
2050.
Fewer
emissions
and
cheaper
travel
sound
pretty
appealing.
The
first
commercially
available
driverless
cars
will almost certainly
be_fielded_by ride-
hailing services,
considering the
cost
of
self
?
driving
technology
as
well
as
liability
and
maintenance
issues(
责任与维护问题
).
But
driverless
car
ownership
could
increase
as
the prices drop and more people become
comfortable with the technology.
Policymakers should start thinking now
about how to make sure the
appearance
of driverless vehicles doesn't extend the worst
aspects of the
car-
controlled
transportation
system
we
have
today.
The
coming
