The Girlfriends: Our Lost Sister

In Season 1, The Girlfriends told the story of how a group of incredible women came together to bring down one bad ex-boyfriend and seek justice for the murder of Gail Katz. But there’s one part of that story that’s still a mystery. During the investigation into Gail’s case, a torso washed up on Staten Island and was misidentified as Gail. Nobody knows her name or what happened to her after she was ruled out from the case. In Season 2, the amateur ladies detective club are back with a new mission: to uncover the identity of this woman and finally find Our Lost Sister. The Girlfriends: Our Lost Sister is produced by Novel for iHeartPodcasts. For more from Novel visit Novel.Audio

Ear Hustle is prison slang for eavesdropping, and that’s what listening to the show feels like: a raw, often funny, and always surprising peek into the reality of life inside prison. Hosts Nigel Poor and Earlonne Woods co-created the show that launched in 2017 while Earlonne was incarcerated at San Quentin State Prison, where Nigel was a volunteer teaching photography. Since Earlonne’s release in 2018, the show has expanded to include stories from prisons across the state, including the California Institution for Women, as well as stories about getting out of prison and starting over, post-incarceration. From finding romance, to grappling with a life sentence, to trying to parent via 15-minute phone calls, Ear Hustle stories deliver what This American Life host Ira Glass calls a “"very real” and “untragic” take on prison life. Ear Hustle is a proud member of Radiotopia from PRX, a network of independent listener-supported podcasts.

Ford Pickup Truck Driver Takes A Back Seat (Literally) At 80 MPH On Cruise Control

Ford driver filmed callously putting his own life and the lives of others at risk

by Sebastien Bell

• A Ford F-450 driver posted a video of himself laying across the rear seat of his truck, leaving no one in the driver’s seat.
• No driver assistance system available to the public is good enough to accomplish the feat safely.
• Making matters worse, the F-450 is not even sold with Ford’s best driver assistance system, BlueCruise, meaning that this driver is relying entirely on adaptive cruiser control and lane keep assist.

It has become dishearteningly common to see Tesla drivers abuse their vehicles’ driver assistance systems, but so far other brands’ drivers have been better behaved. However, a new video from a Ford driver suggests that the problem of overreliance on automated driving systems could become an industry-wide phenomenon.

In a video posted to Instagram by user @__c.crawford__, a man can be seen lying across the rear bench seat of a truck identified as a Ford F-450 . As the camera pans to the front of the vehicle, a vacant driver’s seat can be seen, and the caption “F450 driving itself” is shown on the screen.

Based on the speedometer, the truck is traveling at more than 80 mph (129 km/h) in this video , which was first noticed by The Drive . A pair of bags are set on the left spoke of the steering wheel, likely to trick the lane-centering system into believing that a driver’s hand is on the wheel. The cameraman, filming from the passenger’s seat, says, “This is probably the most nerve-racking shit I’ve ever done.”

And so it should be, because it’s a colossally dangerous thing to do, putting the lives of both of the Ford’s occupants at risk, as well as those of other people on the highway. There is no car on the highway that can pull off this stunt legally or safely, least of all the F-450.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Cameron James (@__c.crawford__)

Although Ford does offer a Level 2 driver assistance system called BlueCruise — which, for the record, requires an attentive driver to be at the wheel at all times — the service is not offered on the F-450.

Instead, this “stunt” is likely being pulled off via the use of adaptive cruise control and lane centering assistance technology. Although these systems keep a vehicle in its lane, they are not designed to take over the task of driving completely.

Ironically, they are such low-tech driver assistance technologies that they are also probably why the truck is so easily fooled. Vehicles equipped with BlueCruise are designed to slow down and stop if the system believes the driver isn’t paying enough attention to the road.

CRUISING INTO 2024: A JOURNEY WITH THE GATEWAY CLIPPER FLEET

Cruising into 2024: A Journey with the Gateway Clipper Fleet

As the Gateway Clipper Fleet eagerly cruises into the promise of 2024, we can’t help but reflect on the incredible journey of the past year. With a trail of unforgettable memories from 2023, the fleet is poised to build upon its success, introducing new and exciting events that will continue to contribute to Pittsburgh’s riverfront experiences in the upcoming year.

Looking back on our 65th year, we are proud to be part of Pittsburgh’s dynamic blend of innovation, cultural richness, and flourishing community spirit. Last year, we joined forces with local news & radio stations such as 102.5 WDVE , WTAE , 94.5 3WS , and 105.9 The X to raise funds for local charities. We proudly announce a donation of over $20,000 to support vital causes in Western Pennsylvania, including organizations such as UPMC Children’s Hospital Foundation, Mario Lemieux Foundation, Greater Pittsburgh Area Food Bank, and the Dollar Energy Fund.

In the momentous occasion of celebrating 65 years of service on the water , we were honored with seven government issued proclamations. To memorialize this milestone, we hosted a lunch cruise attended by friends & family, valued vendors/collaborators, and esteemed politicians such as Mayor Ed Gainey, County Executive Rich Fitzgerald, Council President Theresa Kail-Smith, & more!

In a year filled with love, we joyously hosted over 30 weddings , with 19 of them featuring enchanting ceremonies against the breathtaking backdrop of Pittsburgh’s skyline, creating unforgettable moments for couples embarking their journey of a lifetime together. As we cruise into the new year, we are thrilled to announce our most beloved wedding boat, The Princess, is undergoing a complete interior remodel! We still have dates available so contact us for Pittsburgh’s most unique venue! 

As we wrap up our 65th year on the water , we extend our deepest gratitude to both new and longstanding collaborators for contributing to our success, and a heartfelt thank you to our dedicated staff and employees whose hard work and commitment have fostered a true family atmosphere, making every voyage memorable.

Pittsburgh in 2024, is an emerging up-and-coming city and with our traditional cruises still sailing strong, we are thrilled to be part of Pittsburgh’s evolving time and bring back some old and new cruises!

At the heart of our maritime legacy, we take pride in our cherished tradition of hosting weekly dining cruises such as our BBQ Lock & Dam Cruise & Tour .  Sunset Dinner Cruise & Tour and Captain’s Dinner Cruise & Tour . This year, to elevate your experience, our talented chefs are delighted to unveil a fresh array of menus, inviting our guests to embark on a culinary journey that seamlessly blends tradition with innovation.
