The Napalm Girl

Two positive psychologists, Martin Seligman (from the University of Pennsylvania) and Christopher Peterson (the VIA Institute on Character's scientific director), who published the handbook Character Strengths and Virtues (the "un-Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders"), describe six "virtues," or core characteristics that are universally valued. These virtues are:

Wisdom: Intellectual strengths that help you gain and use information.

Courage: Strengths of will that help you accomplish goals in the face of fear and internal or external obstacles.

Humanity: Interpersonal strengths that help you befriend others and tend to your relationships.

Justice: Social or civic strengths that help bolster a healthy community.

Temperance: Protective traits that help you avoid excess and stay on track in the face of temptations.

Transcendence: Strengths of meaning that connect you with the larger world and provide meaning.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo proposed raising taxes on the wealthy to a combined level of 14.7%, which would be the highest state-and-local tax rate in the nation.

The tax increase would raise $1.5 billion for the state, Cuomo said  in an address unveiling his 2022 budget proposal.

The state would raise the top tax rate to 10.86%, up from 8.82%, Cuomo said. That would yield a top rate of 14.7% for the wealthiest New York City residents in combined taxes.

"[It] would be the highest income tax in the nation," Cuomo said.

Batch...

 

California’s top doctor is recommending a pause on distributing a specific batch of COVID-19 vaccinations that has been linked to several allergic reactions in downtown San Diego.

A cluster of allergic reactions that prompted California to halt the use of hundreds of thousands of doses of coronavirus vaccine has thrown another wrench into the state’s struggling vaccination rollout, forcing some health care providers to cancel clinics visit.

The development stems from one batch of Moderna vaccines apparently linked to severe allergic reactions in six health care workers who received shots at a mass vaccination site at Petco Park, the Padres’ baseball stadium in San Diego last week. The California Department of Public Health issued a statement recommending that health care providers stop using vaccines from this batch, which arrived in California between Jan. 5 and Jan. 12.
