Semi-synthetic plastics are materials that are derived from natural polymers, such as cellulose or starch, and then chemically modified to improve their properties. Examples of semi-synthetic plastics include cellulose acetate and rayon. On the other hand, synthetic plastics are entirely man-made materials produced from chemical reactions involving petroleum-based or other synthetic polymers. Examples of synthetic plastics include polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene. Both semi-synthetic and synthetic plastics are widely used in various industries due to their versatility and durability.

Antiracist Journalism : The Challenge of Creating Equitable Local News
Across the United States, newsrooms are grappling with systemic racism in their organizations and the media industry.Many have implemented diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives or made other attempts to confront past and present biases in pursuit of greater equity.Are such efforts merely performative, or are any transforming norms and power structures?What would it take to hold newsrooms truly accountable?Andrea Wenzel provides a critical look at how local media organizations in the Philadelphia area are attempting to address structural racism.She focuses on two established, majority-white newsrooms, the Philadelphia Inquirer and the public radio station WHYY, and two start-ups where at least half the staff identify as Black, Indigenous, or people of color (BIPOC), Resolve Philly and Kensington Voice.Drawing on more than five years of field research, Wenzel charts how these outlets have pursued a range of interventions—such as tracking the diversity of sources, examining reporting and editing practices, and working with community members to gain input—to varying degrees of success.Wenzel argues that institutional and systemic transformation will be possible only through the establishment of structures that facilitate holding those with more power responsible for listening to and addressing the needs and concerns of those with less.Offering recommendations for building infrastructure that enables sustainable accountability, Antiracist Journalism is an important book for everyone interested in making local journalism more equitable.

Are semi-synthetic or fully synthetic oils better for scooters?
Both semi-synthetic and fully synthetic oils have their own advantages. Fully synthetic oils are generally better for scooters as they offer superior lubrication and protection, especially in high-performance or high-temperature conditions. They also have longer service intervals and better resistance to oxidation and thermal breakdown. However, semi-synthetic oils can be a good compromise for scooters that don't require the extreme performance benefits of fully synthetic oils, while still offering better protection than conventional mineral oils. Ultimately, the choice between semi-synthetic and fully synthetic oils depends on the specific needs and usage of the scooter.

Is it bad to use full synthetic instead of semi-synthetic?
Using full synthetic oil instead of semi-synthetic oil is not necessarily bad, but it may not be necessary for all vehicles. Full synthetic oil offers better performance and protection for high-performance or high-mileage vehicles, but it is also more expensive. Semi-synthetic oil can provide adequate protection for most vehicles and is a more cost-effective option. It's important to consult your vehicle's owner's manual and consider your driving habits before deciding which type of oil to use.
