This is typically accomplished by monitoring a number of different systems and sensors and varying the amount of force applied to each individual brake caliper. By modulating the amount of brake-force that is applied, based on road and driving conditions, EBD brakes can help prevent dangerous skids. How Does Electronic Brake Force Distribution Work? Since most original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) offer at least one model with EBD, there are a lot of different kinds of EBD brakes that you can run into....

“I just saw his comments right away and know 100 percent that everything just kind of came out of left field and (there’s) no truth to it,” Eli Manning said, via USA Today. “I know Peyton takes great pride in doing things the right way, doing things by the book and he would never do anything like that. It has kind of been nipped in the bud a little bit, and it’s not affecting him or distracting him in any way, which is a good thing....

He didn’t suggest this out of some notion of chivalry; he simply thought women might have some good ideas and, as a result, should be allowed to have them shared for the benefit of all. This thought was revolutionary in his time, as were most of his other ideas. In fact, it’s said today that all political thinkers for over 2,000 years have been “answering Plato.” Plato and Wilson do, however, intersect elsewhere, giving us two legs of a would-be triangle....

In his article in China Cyberspace magazine, Musk discusses how technology can help humanity, and he cites as examples the work of his companies SpaceX, Tesla and Neuralink. Some news outlets have focused on Musk’s description in the column of the upcoming general-purpose robot being developed by Tesla, but it was the very act of contributing to the censorship agency’s publication that has resulted in a large amount of social media criticism....

The state’s Emergency Management Division shared a photo of a SpaceX antenna on its Twitter profile yesterday—taking advantage of Musk’s in-progress satellite constellation, which has been pitched as way of providing high speed broadband across the globe. Authorities indicated that it was supplied for first responders working to rebuild the small town of Malden. On September 8, police said 80 percent of the area, including homes and city government buildings, had been totally destroyed by flames....

The tweet was warranted after an online op-ed was published by the website The Truth About Cars entitled, “Tesla’s Cybertruck Will be Company’s First Flop.” Musk agreed with the prediction that the vehicle would not sell in very high numbers. In response, Musk tweeted, “To be frank, there is always some chance that Cybertruck will flop, because it is so unlike anything else. I don’t care. I love it so much even if others don’t....

This week we’ve been left in stitches at a toad riding around the house in a cowboy hat and one dog’s relatable reaction to being put on a diet. Despite stiff competition this week, our Pet of the Week winner is a little different. Not your usual cuddly cat or excitable pup, Elvis the Sheep takes the top spot. Winner Becky Schub had been volunteering for a non-profit that rescued sheep from slaughter, and when one sheep was rejected by its mom because of a latching issue she instantly offered to bottle feed the lamb....

The necropsy—an animal autopsy—also showed that the orca’s heart valve, meninges (brain membrane) and in the reproductive organs were infected and inflamed, and that the orca had an empty gut except for a sheet of plastic. “All the orca’s teeth were loose and rotting. The animal must certainly have been in real pain when eating food,” Lonneke IJsseldijk, the project manager of marine mammal stranding research at Utrecht University and member of the research team studying the dead orca, said in a statement....

Ryan: I was flipping through the channel guide on my TV the other night, Jesse, and saw that The Sandlot was on. So, of course, that’s what I did the next couple hours. Found myself quoting just about every line of that classic, which got me thinking about my favorite lines from my favorite baseball movies. Figured this would be a good Thanksgiving week conversation. I’ll start with this one: “You’re killing me, smalls....

Before PSG’s 3-1 win over Caen, Pastore’s agent Marcelo Simonian claimed Wednesday’s Ligue 1 fixture could be the 28-year-old’s last for the club. Pastore – contracted until 2019 – has only started eight games this season, scoring four goals amid reports of a move away in January. “I’m very pleased with Pastore,” Emery said post-match. “He did not say he wanted to leave. He works to be on the field, with the very great talent he has....

Goals from Virgil Misidjan and Wanderson threatened to give the Bulgarian visitors a famous victory in the French capital, only for Angel Di Maria’s injury-time equaliser to clinch a 2-2 draw. The result, following on from a 3-0 loss away to Montpellier in the league on Saturday, led to a chorus of boos from the PSG fans at the final whistle at Parc des Princes. But rather than dwell on gifting top spot to Arsenal in Group A, Emery called for his players to pick themselves up ahead of a crucial game against the league leaders in France....

Cavani and Pastore were not in the squad as PSG beat Amiens 2-0 in midweek to reach the Coupe de la Ligue semi-finals following their late return to training after the mid-season break. The South American duo were also omitted from the 6-1 Coupe de France rout of Rennes last weekend. Emery told a news conference ahead of the Ligue 1 resumption that Cavani and Pastore were in contention but would not offer any guarantees, with his prime concern that his league-leading squad do not lose focus....

This statement comes in reference to the hundreds of women who have come forward this past week, posting to social media and telling their personal accounts of sexual assault and harassment from peers within the industry. The allegations span across many different development studios, Twitch streamers, and other content creators; while there are too many survivors’ stories to count, some in particular have accused Ubisoft employees of sexual misconduct, to which the company has responded that it is looking into each case....

Charles Mutisya, 73, was killed on Wednesday morning while tending to his farm in the Nthunguni area of Kibwezi East sub-county. The wild animal had strayed from the nearby Tsavo East National Park when it attacked the elderly man around 7 a.m. “Police from Mtito Andei police station and Kenya Wildlife Services rangers visited the scene of the incident and found the body having visible injuries with intestines hanging outside the stomach,” Makueni County Police Commander Joseph Ole Naipeyan told Kenya News Agency on Wednesday....

The quarterback, head coach and closely-scrutinized new offensive coordinator needed a game like Sunday’s 30-17 win, if for no other reason than it made the three days before their next game, Thursday night in Washington, a lot less tense. They were discussing success instead of failure, and could justify their belief in the new offensive scheme instead of lobbying for more patience and faith.

The best thing about Manningcast is how natural it feels to viewers. It’s nothing new to have former players and coaches in the booth, but the Mannings are there unfiltered, and so are their guests. It’s amazing to see former NFL quarterbacks talking about the different phases and nuances of the game. Some people, however, may feel that the Mannings are getting a little too natural and disrespectful for their taste....

The chief actuary for the cash-strapped agency warned in a letter to Congress on August 24 that if legislation were passed ending the tax as of January 1, 2021, the trust fund which supports Social Security benefits would be empty by the middle of 2023. Funds for disability payments would run out even sooner, the letter said. “With no alternative source of revenue to replace the elimination of payroll taxes on earned income paid on January 1, 2021 and thereafter, we estimate that DI (Disability Insurance) Trust Fund asset reserves would become permanently depleted in about the middle of calendar year 2021, with no ability to pay DI benefits thereafter,” wrote Stephen Goss, chief actuary of the Social Security Administration, in his letter to lawmakers....

“This win today is for my man, Dale Earnhardt Jr.” Sadler said after holding off Denny Hamlin. MORE: 10 Cup drivers to watch | Throwback schemes | Southern 500 Sadler and Hamlin staged a tough fight over the last two laps. However, Hamlin couldn’t get by while Sadler kept riding the high line to victory. Behind them came Daniel Suarez, Kyle Larson and Brennan Poole. Hamlin and Larson will return for Sunday’s Sprint Cup race, the Southern 500, which begins after 6 p....

The two are known to have differing views on the world’s largest cryptocurrency. Dorsey, the CEO of Twitter and the payment company Square, is a strong Bitcoin supporter, telling attendees at the Bitcoin 2021 Conference earlier this month: “I don’t think there is anything more important in my lifetime to work on.” Dorsey also made his love of Bitcoin known earlier this year when he showed off a Bitcoin clock while addressing a House Committee hearing on misinformation in March....
