waster

Some emigrated or fled; some (if they had leadership aspirations) were killed or imprisoned; and many may be keeping their heads low so as to avoid drawing attention from the current regime. Unfortunately.

They said “we compare outcomes for children who are similar across observable characteristics but differ in eligibility for intervention due to blood lead test results.” Economic status is observable, so ide guess it’s I caused; but I only read the abstract.

We previously knew about life in the hydrothermal vents. That was indeed the basis for the planned Europa exploration. but this is about life underneath the vents, and if I understand correctly, the way that life travels through cracks in the crust.

Replying to one's own comment.

The most recent image is near-infrared light (per the captions), so the parts of the image that look brightest are where the most near-infrared light is. Also, it's a star nursery, so areas brightest are (I believe) where the new stars are forming. If they're the biggest source of near-infrared light in the area, that would explain the lighting angles.

This:

> Dogs can work through many samples quickly, at a low cost, with minimal or no interaction with patients. For example, healthcare workers can collect breath, sweat, urine, or blood samples for dogs to process, rather than having the dog examine patients directly. This allows the dogs to work with minimal environmental distraction, and bypasses the necessity to work directly with patients who may be uncomfortable around dogs.

I'm a Fiore scholar-level longsword practitioner and cannot say enough amazing things about learning to use weapons like this based on historic manuscripts. It's why my HN username is "waster" – we train from the start with wooden wasters (practice swords), as was done historically. If you're in the SF Bay Area and care to learn, check out swordfightingschool.com; or search for a HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts) school or club near you.

C-section can have its own traumas. For months after being born, my (c-section-born) son would startle and cry horribly at anything that made a snick-snick scissors sound, including certain doors/doorknobs, metal chopsticks, etc. And think of it from the evolutionary perspective and the baby-being-born perspective (vs. our external perspective, birthing or watching/helping), and maybe we can posit shock at the transitions that happen with a c-section (inside, cozy and familiar, and then BOOM: Cold! Bright! Lack of pressure! Loud!).

Except for service dogs.

I have had quite different experience. I have traveled a fair amount with my son and his medium-sized, and thus atypical-looking service dog. TSA has never given us any kind of special treatment, except once late at night in Denver when an agent allowed us to go through the pre-check lane and thus not wait in a long line. Even then, we still had to go through all the same procedures as the full lane: Shoes off, gear out and screened as usual, service dog gear off, me carry or walk with service dog through screener, swab my hands, and only with all-clear, be allowed to recollect gear.

This is a fascinating set of checklists; thanks for sharing it.

Yes, this. And 10 minutes a day may be more like 2 minutes or 5 minutes for some people, or like once a week. OP mentioned that you need to find a reason (paraphrasing, sorry); but with that reason, you can change something, and small changes really do add up.
