Evening - FAIR

The first issue of my new Boom!Box series, WICKED THINGS, is out today (March 18)! The Giant Days team of me (writing), Max Sarin (art), Whitney Cogar (colours) and Jim Campbell (letters) reunite for an all-new story of Bad Machinery’s Charlotte Grote (and Little Claire), as they are sucked into a fiendish world of metropolitan mystery. 

Get it from your local comic shop (if you can’t get there, you can order it from Page 45 in the UK and Midtown Comics in the USA) or digitally on Comixology.

Here’s an interview I did with CBR about the new series and here’s a six-page preview of issue 1.

While driving home I noticed a police car and said out loud “hello Mr police car”.  Which made me think of magpies as people say hello to them as a way of keeping the bad luck away.* Anyway that made me wonder if there was also a counting rhyme for police cars.. One for sadness, … Continue reading Thinking and driving →

Mentors provide a wealth of knowledge and experience to us, they guide us through challenges and increase our likelihood of success, they lift us up and take our success personally. They are invaluable. So why do only 37% of professionals have one?

If only you knew how to make your employees care as much as you do. If only you knew how to motivate them. Then, they'd be more productive, more enthusiastic. Here's the simple and direct great leaders motivate a team member.

The Andlinger Center is hosting a virtual event featuring Bernard Bigot of The ITER Organization. Bigot is the director-general of the 35-country scientific collaboration known as ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) tasked to build a 500-megawatt fusion plant in southern France. This project is slated to be the first fusion experiment to produce more energy than it consumes. PPPL is an active collaborator on the project, and physicist Egemen Kolemen is the seminar’s host.   Bigot is based in France and will Zoom to an international audience 12pm EST/4pm GMT. This seminar is an example of Princeton convening leadership at the highest levels, specifically around energy and environmental issues and solutions. Fusion is seen as a potential source of limitless energy, and Bigot will discuss how ITER puts fusion on a pathway to commercialization, and the advances and challenges with the project. The talk may appeal to those interested in renewable energy, environmental studies, and climate change.  Registration is required. https://acee.princeton.edu/acee-news/virtual-highlight-seminar-series-bernard-bigot-iter/ Sponsored by The Andlinger Center for Energy & the Environment, Princeton University
