Road Trip?

Taking a road trip soon? Here's a few tips for before you go:
1) Check weather and traffic reports; most states have toll-free numbers you can call for both of these.
2) Get a full-service tuneup (recommended at 30,000 miles, 60,000 and so on). Bring your car in for service at least a week or two before you plan to leave - don't wait until the day before.
3) Check your car battery terminals for corrosion. Terminals can be cleaned with a wire brush dipped in baking soda and water.
4) Have the battery "load tested" if it's more than 4 years old. Cold weather greatly decreases a battery's ability to hold a charge - a weak battery may give up in very cold weather.
5) Inspect your tire-tread wear and maintain the proper air pressure indicated in your owner's manual. Replace worn or old tires. Install snow tires or all-weather tires if driving in snow. Some places (such as many mountain passes in the Sierra and Rockies) require tire chains in heavy snow. Purchase chains to keep in your trunk - and know how to install them beforehand.
6) Examine all belts and hoses to make sure there are no cracks or leaks.
7) Check your antifreeze strength in the radiator overflow reservoir with a hydrometer. The antifreeze should be clean, up to the proper level, and strong enough to provide protection at 36 degrees below zero F.
8) Replace the coolant and/or flush the cooling system if this hasn't been done in the last 15,000 miles.
9) Check all the car's fluids: oil, coolant, brake fluid, power steering and automatic transmission fluid (if applicable), hydraulic clutch fluid (if applicable).
10) Keep your washer-fluid reservoir filled. Use windshield washer fluid that has windshield antifreeze in it, not just water.
11) Replace your windshield wipers if they're split, cracked, streaking or skipping.
12) Be certain your headlights, taillights, brake lights and turning signals work, and replace bulbs as necessary.
13) Pack one or two warm blankets in the trunk of your car.
14) If you're traveling to an area with snow, bring a small shovel and kitty litter in case you get stuck in the snow.

A healthier take on weeknight-friendly risotto
Risotto traditionally is made with starchy white rice. That starch is essential to producing a creamy, thick risotto. But I wanted a whole-grain version. Trouble is, brown rice doesn't release nearly as much starch during cooking, so substituting it often produces risotto that is thin and uninspiring.

It took me a few attempts, but I eventually figured out how to have my whole grains and my thick and creamy risotto. And it was simple. I just needed to add starch.

Once I had that down, then I needed to add flavor. For this recipe, I came up with two variations, one with Brussels sprouts and apple, another with asparagus and tomatoes. Both are incredibly delicious.

NASA's Next-Generation Spacesuit

NASA's Next-Generation Spacesuit Looks Like Buzz Lightyear
If your kids didn't already want to be astronauts when they grow up -- just wait until they get a look at the Z-1.

It's NASA's next generation of spacesuit, and bears more than a passing resemblance to the suit worn by Buzz Lightyear in Pixar's beloved Toy Story films.

The Z-1 Prototype Spacesuit and Portable Life Support System 2.0, produced for NASA by the David Clark Company, is white with fluorescent green stripes, and features a large, hemispherical transparent dome helmet --just like Lightyear's.

Named one of Time magazine's inventions of the year, the suit is designed to take astronauts into long missions into deep space. It features a rear-entry port that gives galaxy-hopping space rangers an easy way to dock with shuttles and space stations without the need for an airlock. Ingenious!

The Z-1 is a prototype, NASA stresses, and will be subject to further revisions before it's actually put into use by NASA in 2017 -- hopefully by which time the U.S.'s space program will again be in full swing.

And this isn't the only Buzz Lightyear/NASA crossover: Disney and NASA have joined forces to develop hands-on educational activities and exhibits centered around the character's fictional voyage to, and 450 days spent living inside, the International Space Station.
