10 Years For the last few weeks, I’ve been binge watching the horribly trashy TV show, Love Is Blind. I took a few years off of reality shows, and it has been deliciously awful to dive back into them. This show certainly doesn’t make you think critically about life or love, but ...
so softer pencils are necessary. I wondered whether the soft tips might not dull quickly, but on second thought the stenographer would be “shading” only intermittently, so the tip probably won’t wear down as fast as a normal soft pencil would. (In any case the stenographer...
Wind River, the leader in the IoT and embedded operating systems, has released Wind River Linux Long Term Support (LTS) 21. LTS 21 moves up to the latest Linux LTS kernel and adds many new capabilities including a binary distribution. Wind River Linux is not a traditional Linux distro, but...
The hijab applies to all genders but for ease of understanding, I’ll use the term hijab in place of headscarf seeing as though that’s how this story has been covered. In March the French Senate passed an amendment to ban girls from wearing the hijab in public if they’re under the ...

long-term exposure to a high dose of metformin (e.g., 1%) is nephrotoxic and leads to early mortality in mice even though global gene expression profile appears to be closer to CR when given only for a short period of time.2 Nevertheless, there has been a recent flurry of interest in...
term and become Dan the Welder or Jim the Waiter, for instance. This step was always semi-voluntary and taken under pressure from various directions. But, we had education, a little bit of family wealth, and a friendly social network. We were destined for more than socioeconomic stagnation ...
I ran into a problem that 2014 model Abarths have — the catalytic converter is only listed up to 2013. No one wants to order one for you and install it. So I bought a 200 cell cat from TMC in Northern Ireland. It does make the O2 sensor throw a code intermittently, but it runs...
This procedure may be carried out intermittently or continuously. For intermittent or batch operation, a quantity of water is run into a suitable vessel and agitated for a period of time with a suitable quantity of a magnesium-rich sludge. The softening chemicals are then added to and mixed in...
