These midwinter walks are also often seen as a healthy penance for over-indulgence, and risk missing potential pleasures. While the sap has indeed sunk in many trees, by no means all of nature is hibernating now. Watch out for the vivid pale yellow ‘lamb’s tail’ catkins which are beginning to festoon hazels, one of our commonest trees. This is one of those cases when flowers appear before leaves, and you just might find another example at your feet in a hedgerow. So you may find your penitential walk is full of unexpected promise, and your own sap rising, if you pay attention to what may be all around you.

The article, “How to Recognize Censorship on Social Platforms — and What to Do About It,” offers a data-driven framework for identifying when content distribution is being quietly restricted and outlines practical steps for responding with documentation and persistence rather than retreat. Written as a year-end reflection but published as a forward-looking guide, the article explains how censorship in the digital age often manifests not through overt removal, but through measurable changes in distribution. As the article states:“Censorship in the digital age rarely announces itself. It is measurable.”Rather than focusing on speculation or grievance, the guide emphasizes disciplined observation and repeatable processes. About Sisters of the ValleySisters of the Valley is a California-based, mission-driven organization that combines scholarship, advocacy, and ethical commerce.

However, when a case involves deep tooth pain, infection, or damage within the pulp, an endodontist becomes essential. Dr. Meier explains that tooth pain is one of the most common reasons for a referral. Dr. Meier notes that this coordination between the general dentist and endodontist strengthens the tooth’s foundation and promotes lasting oral health. General dentists depend on endodontists for their specialized expertise, while endodontists depend on general dentists to restore the tooth after treatment. The article, Why Your General Dentist May Refer You to an Endodontist, features insights from Dr. Allen Meier of the Endodontic Center of Southern Indiana in HelloNation.

Germany’s defence ministry has begun posting letters to 18-year-olds as a first step towards reactivating military service. Germany paused – but never abolished – compulsory military service in 2011. Faced with growing security threats from Russia, Germany is following European countries that have either reactivated or ramped up military service. It remains to be seen whether a voluntary approach will be sufficient, however, given that support for military service appears highest among those too old to serve. Protesters demonstrate against compulsory military service in front of the Defence Ministry in Berlin in August 2025.

Drawing on his experience assessing safety-critical platforms used in autonomous vehicles and robotics, Thomas observes that many organizations involved in autonomy operate with differing interpretations of functional safety. Modern autonomous systems are composed of independently developed components, including perception algorithms, neural networks, high-performance computing, vehicle control systems, and continuous deployment pipelines. As systems change through software updates and machine learning optimization, safety assumptions must be reviewed and documented to prevent gaps in accountability. According to his analysis, failures in autonomous systems are more likely to emerge at the boundaries between teams, tools, and assumptions than within individual components themselves. By emphasizing unified and continuously maintained safety frameworks, he encourages the industry to approach functional safety as an ongoing, system-wide responsibility that evolves alongside autonomous technology.
