Three years ago, in his driveway in Salem, Rich Benoit rigged some ropes and pulleys and did something that could modestly be described as a bad idea.
He pulled a 1,300-pound, 400-volt battery out of a Tesla that had been underwater.
And then, with no real clue of what he was doing, he opened it and tried to fix it.
“It was terrifying,” Benoit says now.
It was also the beginning of what has become one of the more interesting narratives in these early days of the modern era of the electric car, one that asks and answers a lot of questions and has turned the 36-year-old Benoit — a father of three who works in IT in Boston — into one of its early superstars.

Canola is a crop with plants from three to five feet tall that produce pods from which seeds are harvested and crushed to create canola oil and meal. … Besides the U.S., it is grown in Canada and Australia, but canola oil is consumed all over the world.

Of all the common consequences of aging, none is more frightening than memory loss. Even if you’ve never helplessly watched a loved one succumb to Alzheimer’s—which I promise is worse than it sounds—it’s natural to wonder if something similar could happen to you.
Our collective fear of aging has long been exploited for profit; cognitive decline is no exception. Most people are terrified of losing their mental faculties as they age, and corporations know it—brain power-boosting games and apps are big business these days. Their claims are bold: Lumosity promises to help users “improve memory, increase focus, and find calm.” 2013 Apple App of the Year winner Elevate touts itself as “a brain training program designed to improve focus, speaking abilities, processing speed, memory, math skills, and more.” Using fear to sell products may be an effective marketing strategy, but those products rarely solve any actual problems.

Required watching (and reading) to answer your questions after seeing HBO’s “Leaving Neverland.”
We can’t say that Michael Jackson we hear described in “Leaving Neverland” is a man entirely foreign to us. The searing tales from the documentary’s two subjects are of course shocking. But such tales have come out before.
And Jackson himself: We have always known how weird he was, and most of us suspected that at least some of his behavior — the excessive facial surgery and his odd friendships with kids, for starters — hid deeper and darker secrets.
If you’re coming in new to the Jackson story, or if Dan Reed’s documentary left you with more questions than you started with, here is a list of required watching and reading to fill in the gaps. See and hear how the drama that was Michael played out over the years — and watch how the brightest star in the world began to flicker and finally go out.

Love don’t cost a thing but a gigantic diamond ring. Well, at least for Jennifer Lopez and her beau Alex Rodriguez.
The couple got engaged on Saturday night, according to a pair of matching Instagram posts shared by the iconic singer and former New York Yankees shortstop.
In the intimate photo, Rodgriquez’ hand is holding Lopez’, which is adorned with a massive diamond ring on her left ring finger.
In her caption, Lopez, 49, left a row of heart emojis while Rodriguez, 43, typed, “She said yes.”

If you are going to get your information regarding abortion from anyone, perhaps it is best not to get it from an institution that has no women in its higher orders, and is keeping women as sex slaves.
Like, for instance, the Catholic Church. This week Pope Francis admitted there has been clerical abuse of nuns, including sexual slavery. The BBC reports, “He said the Church was attempting to address the problem but said it was ‘still going on.'”
Holy shit.
For anyone who says, “What does that have to do with abortion?” Well, abortion is an issue that concerns women’s right to self-determination, a key issue in human rights that women make choices regarding their own bodies. The Catholic Church, given it now admits to forcing some nuns to be sex slaves, doesn’t seem well positioned to lecture on what women should or should not do with their bodies. Honestly, the Church seems to have a terrible track record in that regard, whether we’re looking at this week’s scandal or the relatively recent horror of Magdalene laundries.

Machu Picchu is an Incan citadel set high in the Andes Mountains in Peru, above the Urubamba River valley. Built in the 15th century and later abandoned, it’s renowned for its sophisticated dry-stone walls that fuse huge blocks without the use of mortar, intriguing buildings that play on astronomical alignments and panoramic views. Its exact former use remains a mystery.

I aspire to live an incredibly long, happy, and healthy life.
That is why I recently read The Blue Zones Solution, in which New York Times best-selling author Dan Buettner reveals the eating and living habits of the world’s longest-lived people.
For over a decade, Buettner (along with the National Geographic Society and a team of researchers) studied the 5 locations around the globe that have the highest concentrations of 100-year-olds, as well as exceptionally low rates of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, obesity, and heart problems.
In the book, Buettner lays out the specifics for each of these “Blue Zones” locations, analyzes the trends, and then prescribes a plan for people looking achieve the same level of health and longevity.
