All the available bench space is crammed with reagents and instruments. Ceiling suspension is the only remaining option for workspace.
Scepter televisions are a great option, no “smart” features at all. Bought two of them about 6 years ago and no issues.
Avasarela: “Don’t call me that, I’m a member of Parliament, not your favorite stripper.” Amos: “You can be both…”
I’ve seen elderly folks do that a few times. Not on the shoulder, but still in their lane, backing up into oncoming traffic. (Yes, I did spend some time living in Florida.)
Paper straws would work great if they just coated them in plastic. Then they wouldn’t disintegrate before you finished your drink.
My choice of a retirement home will be dictated by which one offers high-speed internet service.
There used to be one in Kalamazoo MI on the west side of the WMU campus in the 90’s. Loved that place, burritos were really good. No, not really as big as your head, but it was a lot of food.
I wouldn’t doubt someone already has, on purpose, but behind closed doors.
I know shooting sports in schools used to be a thing, but figured after Columbine that those programs were all dropped and didn’t exist anymore. Gunfire near a school is no longer about academic competitions, but something tragic and far too common.
The m is an old apothecary unit for “minims” which was about 1 drop. Not very exact, the amount dosed depended on the method used to dispense each drop. Most of the content was probably water or glycol syrup, so the total alcohol content would be diluted to less than 1%.
I remember this happening, and the pet food scandal just before it. Melamine was being added to pet food and milk powder to falsely increase their protein values. Enough to cause kidney failure and sometimes death. I used to do protein analysis for food products, and could see how easy it would be for food companies to cheat like this. The percent nitrogen content in a sample is used to estimate the protein value. Melamine powder contains a lot of nitrogen, so it’s blended in to bump up the final protein values. Really shitty thing to do, knowing that it’s toxic.
Saw the question and thought of exactly this video. Great skit.
Quality control chemist testing pharmaceuticals. Most of what we do is for clinical trial use and research purposes. It’s been a good job.
Commodore basic on the PET computer, back around 1981-1983. My grade school had three of them in the library, and since my mom was a teacher, she would sign one out for summer break and bring it home if any were available.
Sorry you lost friends that way. Hopefully the asshole that did it never sees the outside of prison ever again.
Our international partners began moderating the intelligence they would share while Trump was in office. They couldn’t trust him to not blab about state secrets during dinner parties just to try to impress people with how smart and important he was.
