Check out the ones that have a spray bottle attached rather than just a bulb as it allows for way more water before needing to refill. I think it was popularized under the name "Elephant Ear Wax Removal Kit" but there are knockoffs now as well that are the same thing.

Is this suggesting staring directly at the sun? Or just getting indirect light (go outside for a bit without sunglasses on)? The article keeps saying looking at the sun for 30 minutes at a time, but isn't that incredibly bad for your eyes?

Maybe I'm being naive, but isn't that just email?

Data Scientist I think.

I might also add gas prices being low again.

It's the same word for everyone once a day. So you just spoiled it for anyone who hadn't gotten it. Just FYI in case you want to edit.

I'm no expert, but it looks like the Apple Valley big earthquakes were centered on land, and these Fukushima are centered off the coast. I would assume the closer to the center, the worse the damage, so perhaps that could explain it?

They were referencing worldle not wordle. Note the extra L for world instead of word.

Generally you don't want to charge the battery past about 80% unless you're going to use it right away. So the "extended range" charge would be charging past that 80%.

I think the 70s and 80s pop hits have had staying power because those songs were the pop music of the people with the power to choose the content of mass media as media became more massive in the 90s and 2000s (further television/radio station standardization and the internet).

The apartment complex that I lived at in 2009 had a fully furnished 1br apartment available to rent nightly by tenants for their guests. I used it a few times and it was very convenient to have guests stay there onsite instead of at a hotel. Definitely agree it is a great amenity for them to advertise.

But how many options do you have within 10 minutes? Are there more options if you need them than just one store and restaurant? I think that's what confuses me as to why they didn't create this concept closer to an area that's also walkable to other services.

I live about 10 min drive from there, and I honestly don't see how it's going to work. Yes it is right on the lightrail line, but otherwise it's not a very walkable area. I guess they are hoping to lock everyone into just doing most of their eating and shopping onsite. Is that actually desirable?

Hoplark Hoptea (sparkling hoppy tea) is another good alternative I have found, and is lower in calories and comes in varieties that are caffeinated or not. I'll note that I tried Athletic's hoppy sparkling water and Lagunita's and neither was nearly as good. Though I will say overall, all of them seem too expensive to be buying on a regular basis unless they can really cut out more expensive beer for you.

The national government is providing the drug for free and thus no one is allowed to charge for it. The provider can bill for the administration of the vaccine. If a patient has insurance, the admin is billed to the insurance. If not, it's billed to a government program called HRSA. At my hospital I have been told that if any insurance company tries to pass on a portion of the administration as copay/coinsurance/deductible that we need to flag that payment to call the insurance company because they aren't allowed to do that.
