- Power blackouts, hyperinflation, and chronic shortages have become parts of everyday life for millions of Venezuelans.
- Five people sent INSIDER pictures showing what it's like to live through the humanitarian crisis.
- Whether meat rotting in a warm fridge or a Happy Meal that is worth more than a monthly salary, they see the effects of the crisis everywhere.
- Visit INSIDER's homepage for more stories.
Venezuela continues to spiral into a worsening humanitarian crisis as the government and the opposition jostle for support.
More than 3 million people have left the South American country. For those who have stayed, crippling power blackouts, hyperinflation, and chronic food and medicine shortages are their everyday reality.
INSIDER asked Venezuelans to send in pictures that best captured their lives under the crisis.
The internet in Venezuela frequently fails, which can make communication difficult and slow. The photographs were taken in March and April and reached INSIDER piecemeal over the past few weeks.
They show life before the failed uprising last week, led by opposition politician Juan Guaidó. Despite the drama of Guaidó's gambit, little has changed for ordinary people. Here is what they showed us.
This worthless "money tree" uses black humor to show Venezuela's hyperinflation.
This photo is from Jesus Yepez, an architect who lives in Venezuela's capital, Caracas.
He found this "money tree" in the street, made mostly from bills in Venezuela's currency, the bolívar soberano, on the street.
Skyrocketing hyperinflation has made cash almost worthless: $1 is worth roughly 5,200 bolívares soberanos.
Yepez saw local workers adding their tips to the tree, while other people contributed Monopoly money.
"Many people commented that that is what our currency has turned into: Monopoly money," he told INSIDER. "It's an ingenious protest for the insane inflation we've been experiencing."
This man is hunting for food in a garbage dumpster — now an everyday sight in Caracas.
As prices for basic goods like food and medicine have soared, it is pretty common to see people sifting through the trash in the streets of Caracas.
Yepez observed this young man, most likely in search of food, clothes, or plastic containers that he could sell.
"I could see by his face that he was hungry," Yepez said.
Another photo shows a McDonald's in Caracas offering a Happy Meal for 18,500 bolívares — more than the monthly minimum wage.
When Yepez took his daughter to buy an ice cream at a McDonald's — a special treat — the price of the Happy Meal immediately caught his attention.
The meal — a Cajita Feliz in Spanish — cost 18,500 bolívares soberanos, or $3.50, a little more than the minimum monthly wage at the time in March.
The government has since raised the wage to 40,000 bolívares soberanos ($7.70).
Yepez said the restaurant was mostly empty since eating out had become so expensive.
"Seeing how grave the crisis is, all we can do is 'be happy,'" he said.
"Medicine urgently" scrawled on the side of a highway highlights the chronic — and sometimes deadly — lack of supplies.
"This is more than a simple graffiti," Yepez wrote on his Instagram post about this spray-painted message on the side of a highway bridge, which means "medicine urgently."
Venezuelans have experienced an acute medicine shortage as the economy crumbles and the government can't afford to import basic drugs and supplies.
Yepez says he has struggled to buy something as simple as flu medicine.
"But my flu is a grain of sand in light of the mountain of needs," he wrote.
He said other people he knew were looking for even more scarce things like morphine to deal with problems like metastases — painful growths spreading through the bodies of people with cancer.
One of the most desperate scenes shows a crowd of people collecting water from a leaking sewer pipe, after the running water to their homes stopped.
This photo is from Stephanie Vita Marcelot, an administrator in Caracas.
She captured people crowding around a leaking sewage drain to collect water to drink and bathe in during a blackout that stopped running water from getting to their homes.
Water pumps have been failing regularly because of crippling power failures.
On this day in early March, Marcelot saw people of all ages taking plastic containers, pots, and pans to collect water. Others bathed or played in the leak, she said.
The water was running clear, Marcelot said, even though it came out of dirty pipes that feed into the polluted Guaire River.
"The sad reality was that no one had the faintest idea what risk they were taking by collecting this water, even if they just use it to shower," she told INSIDER.
"Many people told me they had gone days without running water, and this was the only place they could get it."
Though the power failures were at their worst in March and April, many parts of the capital still struggle with water shortages, she said.
Frequent blackouts also mean no electric lighting. These ketchup bottles, turned into kerosene lamps, are a makeshift way to light one's home.
This photo is from Dinora Lucia Villalba Navarro, an engineer in the northern city of Maracay.
She started making her own kerosene lamps with her husband when nationwide blackouts kicked off in March.
"With so many days without electricity, one needs a generator, which many of us don't have," she told INSIDER.
Intermittent power failures still persist in Maracay. That means Villalba cannot count on light, water, gas, refrigeration, phone service, internet, or ATMs.
The DIY lamps have been popular among friends and colleagues, she said, because they don't require electricity or expensive, scarce batteries.
She said she also taught her brother how to make them because he broke his nose in the dark during one blackout.
It's also hard to cook with no power. This photo shows an improvised stove, used to cook an arepa from the heat of a single candle.
This photo is from Stiven Landaeta, an economics student from Mérida in northwestern Venezuela.
He improvised this stove with a candle because the gas was not working during one of the many power failures.
"And we managed to eat. It was slow, but we made it," he told INSIDER.
He said he had not eaten since breakfast when he finally had his arepa, at 10:30 p.m.
Landaeta said he could not buy food because the card readers were down, and barely anyone in Venezuela used cash since the hyperinflation began.
This pile of worthless cash is another reminder of the grim economic situation.
Landaeta still has a mound of cash in the old currency — the bolívar fuerte — which was in circulation until August.
The pile of money was worth almost nothing even before it was replaced by the bolívar soberano.
President Nicolás Maduro slashed five zeroes from the new currency to combat the hyperinflation, but prices have continued to soar.
Bloomberg's Cafe con Leche Index found that annual inflation hit 199,900% on May 1.
Even if you can get hold of food, the lack of proper refrigeration means it can easily rot, like this.
This photo is from a Caracas woman who asked to stay anonymous.
She said she had to throw out 4 kilograms, or 8.8 pounds, of beef during one of the blackouts in the capital of Caracas.
Her food started rotting after spending days in a warm fridge.
"Meat is really expensive here," she told INSIDER. "The price goes up every week, so it's hard to see it rot without being able to do anything about it."
A meal like this is all most people can hope for — and even that doesn't come without sacrifice.
The same woman also shared an image of one of her meals during the blackouts: a fried egg, rice, and ketchup.
Without power, she could not take public transport to the supermarket to buy anything else.
"This is not a dignified lunch, and other people eat even less than this," she told INSIDER.
With food prices skyrocketing, many Venezuelans can't afford to buy the hearty meals they were used to, she continued.
"But it gets to a point where you have to decide between buying eggs or toilet paper," she said.
"Because you can't do both or your entire salary for the month is gone."

These are all music videos that were enjoyable or memorable to me from the past year. Not necessarily my favorite songs (although I certainly like them all) and not necessarily the most impressive videos, but just what caught my attention. In no particular order:
Sheena Ringo (椎名林檎) – Nagaku Mijikai Matsuri (長く短い祭)
From the pop queen herself, a duet with Ukigumo with autotune done right and a disturbing video.
Yubisaki nohaku (指先ノハク) – Nanigashi (なにがし)
An extremely fun music video with a song of when communication just isn't working right. One of my favorite songs of the year as well.
Milkyway (みるきーうぇい) – Shinitaku Naru Hodo Suki Datta (死にたくなるほど好きだった。)
A moving story music video and the sequel to this MV from last year. With a song called "I Loved You So Much I Want to Die," Milkyway really has the best emo lyrics.
Chirinuruwowaka (チリヌルヲワカ) – Awoawo (アヲアヲ)
This video is really simply but I love how well it fits the chill song. It's also always enjoyable to watch videos where you can actually see the musicians play.
A Month of Sundays – Shigatu no Tawagoto (四月のたわごと)
Another very simple music video that just fits the music perfectly. I love the vintage camera touch and this is just one of my very favorite songs of the year.
Lily Rose (リリーローズ) – I Know
Simple and sexy. Same singer as the above video.
Suiyoubi no Campanella (水曜日のカンパネラ) – Medusa (メデューサ)
It wouldn't be a best MV list without at least one Suikan song. While it wasn't their flashiest video of the year, it was the most charming.

Mead Johnson Extends Global Sole-Source Supply Agreement with Martek Biosciences
GLENVIEW, Ill., Jun 21, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) --Mead Johnson Nutrition Company (NYSE: MJN) announced today that it had extended its supply agreement with Martek Biosciences Corporation for DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and ARA (arachidonic acid) for use in its infant formula products. Under the terms of the amendment, Martek will continue to be Mead Johnson's global sole-source supplier of DHA and ARA for all of its infant formula products through Dec. 31, 2015, an extension of four years beyond the earliest possible termination date of the current agreement.
"Mead Johnson pioneered the inclusion of DHA and ARA in infant formula in the United States. We continue to choose Martek as the supplier of these key ingredients because of their commitment to innovation and quality in technology and science," said Dirk Hondmann, senior vice president - global research & development. "The use of Martek's trusted sources of DHA and ARA supports Mead Johnson's mission to nourish the world's children for the best start in life."
Martek has been supplying DHA and ARA to Mead Johnson for use in infant formula under a 25-year global license agreement executed in 1992. Mead Johnson launched infant formulas containing DHA and ARA in international markets beginning in 2000 and introduced the first infant formula in the United States with these key nutrients in 2002. In May 2006, a new supply agreement established Martek as Mead Johnson's global sole-source supplier of DHA and ARA for use in its infant formula products. Today, Mead Johnson offers these beneficial ingredients in all its U.S. routine infant formula products, led by Enfamil(R) Premium(TM) LIPIL, and is the first and only infant formula manufacturer to date to receive scientific endorsement by the European Food Safety Authority for an infant formula health claim - specifically involving DHA and visual acuity.
Under the terms of the amended agreement, Martek will provide graduated price reductions to Mead Johnson over the time period of the extension, beginning in 2010. In addition, Mead Johnson has the option to add another four years to the extension beyond 2015. Mead Johnson said that estimated cost reductions for 2010 would not be material and would not affect its previously announced annual earnings guidance.
Naturally present in human breast milk, DHA and ARA are fatty acids important to infant development and growth. Clinical studies have demonstrated numerous benefits for infants receiving DHA and ARA supplemented formula versus non-supplemented formula, including improved mental and visual development.

Want some help finding open textbooks or other kinds of OER? Email firstname.lastname@example.com!
The Open Education movement seeks to improve student learning through the use of free and openly licensed course materials - textbooks, exercises, assignments - that can be customized by teachers and easily accessed by all students regardless of their financial means. Switching to such Open Educational Resources (OER), like textbooks from OpenStax and OpenIntro, gives faculty the freedom to revise and remix content to match their plan for the course. OER also allow students to engage with the text in new and pedagogically powerful ways that help them recognize themselves as producers of information rather than just consumers. Open Educational Pedagogy (OEP) is the practice of employing OER to support student learning in ways that are impossible when using traditional, closed course materials.
Q. What were your major motivations for switching to or adding an open textbook to your course?
A. I wanted a better textbook. I wasn't especially happy with the (statistics) textbook I was using and had been staring at my own textbooks from my undergraduate and graduate days on my shelf. I realized that they were not interactive enough for the course I wanted to teach, and so I went looking for a more modern text. If I recall correctly, I ended up finding OpenIntro through social media as one of the authors is active on Twitter.
Q. How has the open textbook improved your course?
A. As a group, my students aren't wild about enrolling in a statistics course: for one, it's considered 'Math-y' which turns off some students, and most of them are in the major for their interest in human biology, not quantitative analysis or experimental design. To top it all off, I made them purchase an expensive textbook! Announcing on day one of the class that there is a cost-free option has generated a lot of good will from which I draw when I push and challenge them in class. It makes it more credible when I say, 'I know this is hard but trust me, it's important'. Simply put, it's good diplomacy.
Q. What advice would you give to a professor who is considering switching to or adding an open textbook?
A. I was quite surprised at the positive reaction I received when I announced that I was using a 'free' book (note: the online or pdf version is free; students can purchase a softcover version for $14.99). I had not fully understood how much financial pressure the cost of textbooks places on many of our students. [But] (Non-) Buyer Beware: it is a substantial amount of work to switch textbooks!
Q. What were your major motivations for switching to an open textbook?
A. Cost primarily, with a secondary consideration of whether students will be able to access the text after the course is over or to share it with others. The course in question is biology for non-majors. I don't see any reason for these students to spend hundreds of dollars on the Campbell biology textbook, which is excellent, but only marginally better than the OpenStax offerings. For Biology majors, however, I think the Campbell book makes is the better option. Benefiting from many revisions, it is a great reference book, and it makes sense for majors to keep the book and refer back to it later in their academic and professional careers.
That said, most students, even majors, sell their books at the end of the year. So, even the potential benefit of having the book on hand in years to come is not enjoyed by most of our students. In this respect, the open source book may, actually, be more useful. Students can re-access it whenever they wish, or even share it with friends and family.
Q. How has the open textbook improved your course?
A. I don't have any formal assessment of this. My impression is that there is a benefit in that all students actually have the book. In other courses I have taught, several students have tried to get by without buying a book. I would think that the free book is also less likely to alienate students who struggle to pay for more expensive texts. By offering an open source text, I am showing that I respect the students, all of the students, and that I am looking out for their concerns.
Q. What advice would you give to a professor who is considering switching to an open textbook?
A. Talk with someone who has experience with that book. The book that I am using now suffers from some idiosyncrasies, as I'm sure many open source resources do. This book, for example, is targeted at non majors, but is cut down from the version for majors. As a result, the level at which topics are presented is not consistent. There have also been several terms that are used without prior definition.
I would also recommend that the instructor make it very clear that a printed version of the text can be ordered. Some students prefer hard copies, but might incorrectly assume that an open source book is only available online.
Q. What were your major motivations for switching to or adding an open textbook to your course?
A. Motivations were cost saving and freedom to choose works. I explored this possibility, encouraged by Janelle, when an anthology I had been using moved to a new edition.
Q. How has the open textbook improved your course?
A. In some ways the transition has been seamless in that works of lit are works of lit, however published and consumed. However, there have been subtle improvements brought on by digital notetaking and the ability to display annotated text to the class.
Q. What advice would you give to a professor who is considering switching to or adding an open textbook?
A. What I have is an open reading list rather than a textbook, but for any teacher teaching works in the public domain, I would suggest examining whether the editorial apparatus and commentary you get from a commercially published edition are worth the price to your particular students.
Are you a Gettysburg College faculty member who uses an open educational resource in one of your courses? Please let us know!
And if you would like to share your experiences with OER as these professors have done here, please email Janelle Wertzberger with answers to the following three questions:

We often get asked to explain how we think. There are two very important things we learned about how businesses succeed. Today, those two things drive our every thought and action.
1 Business IS Personal
All decisions made in every business have a personal impact. On your employees, your customers, your suppliers. Whether you know it or not. Whether you think about it or not. All Business IS personal.
It makes complete sense that the core issue in every business is the people element. Get the people element right and everything ordinary will turn extraordinary. Get the people element wrong and nothing will move past mediocre.
2 What Successful Businesses Must Have in Place to Survive and Thrive the Next Two Decades
- They make love to their customers. They accurately identify and effectively get closer to their customers in every single transaction beginning to end with all technologies and all humans.
- They have wickedly simple processes. Simplification of operations generates greater internal efficiencies which in turn ensures an ability to grow consistently year over year. Because business is a series of systems, not a magic pill, not hope nor dream and never a one-day wonder.
- They are upstanding community citizens. And set the example in every way as pillars in their society. Which makes them awesome employers and caring corporate citizens.
- They have a winning attitude or mindset. This permeates the entire organization and is the ultimate invincible cloak of armour. It makes them both fearless and to be feared.
- They have a trusted ally (mentor, advisor) in their back pocket because every successful leader has a secret weapon.
That is how we think. So simple to say; so darned difficult to live up to every single day.
And that is why we are in business. To help you. To hold your hand. To listen to you. To change your thinking for the better.
So you can get the MORE you want.
Interested in keeping up with the how we think piece of our brains? We created a bi-monthly "POV Newsletter" and are thrilled at the reactions so far. Happy to send to you! Simply email firstname.lastname@example.com with the Subject Line: Bullet Proof POV Please, and we will add you to our mailing list. We promise not to disappoint you.

Nabble silently drops content from email sent through their interface on a regular basis. I've told them about it multiple times. My suggestion: find another way to post to this mailing list. -----Original Message----- From: Michael McCandless [mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 11, 2012 10:07 AM To: email@example.com Subject: Re: RAMDirectory and expungeDeletes()/optimize() What I meant was your original email says "My code looks like", followed by blank lines, and then "Doesn't it conflict with the JavaDoc saying:", followed by blank lines. Ie we can't see your code. However, when I look at your email here at http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/RAMDirectory-and-expungeDeletes-optimize-td3994350.html#a3994387 I do see the code and javadocs. But when I look at http://lucene.markmail.org/thread/z5gcms6lp4bo5hfs and http://firstname.lastname@example.com%3e they are missing. Not sure what's going on. Maybe your email was originally HTML but got converted to plain text somewhere along the way, losing those important parts? Anyway, to try to answer your question: you should be able to simply call optimize (forceMerge(1)): it does what expungeDeletes does, and more (merges down to 1 segment). Yes, it's horribly costly, and so you should do it rarely, but it sounds like it may be OK in this case (one time thing before you send a segment off to the main index). Still, you should test whether it actually helps in the end, because likely the main index will have to merge these segments anyway (if enough are added) which'd mean the merging you did on adding them was redundant (unless bandwidth is very costly...).

A recent speech to a business audience left me thinking that, for many, the EU & its single market are not so much a question of being for or against as one of wanting to know just what, for the individual business, their significance is. A single market in which goods, services, people and capital would be able to move freely within a customs union, lay at the heart of the EU's founding treaty.
After almost three days of negotiations and two weeks of briefing, what is probably the longest reshuffle in history is over. The minute-by-minute blows of Corbyn's first reshuffle can be found here on the LabourList live blog, however there are 5 things that the whole ordeal can tell us about the current dynamics within the Labour Party.
The referendum will be held in April. The Dutch one that is. No Government likes domestic political controversy during its period as President of the EU Council (which is one reason why the British Government are keen to hold the British referendum before 2017, since Britain will be in the chair in the second half of next year).

An American styled amber, easy drinking and lightly hopped with Centennial hops giving a slight citrus and floral aroma.
Amber Ale Artisan Fresh Wort
300g Caramunich malt grain
15g Centennial Hops (20 min boil)
15g Centennial Hops (10 min boil)
15g Centennial Hops (0 min)
American II Ale (WY1272), Safale US05 or MJ M44
1. Well in advance of preparing recipe, place 5-10 litres of water in a fridge and chill
2. Place Caramunich in 1 litre of hot tap water and steep for 20 minutes.
3. Strain the grain through a sieve into a saucepan. Rinse grain with another litre of hot water and discard the grain.
4. Bring grain wort to the boil and simmer 15g of Centennial hops in a boiling bag.
5. After 10 minutes, add 15g of Centennial hops to the hop sock and continue to simmer.
6. After a further 10 minutes, turn off the heat, add 15g Centennial hops and steep for 10mins.
7. Remove hop sock and pour wort into the fermenter. Add the fresh wort and top up with chilled and tap water to 20L at 20-25°C and stir vigorously for 5 minutes.
8. Add American II Ale (WY1272), Safale US05 or MJ M44 yeast, seal fermenter and store in cool conditions
Tips for temperature control:
-Use the chilled water to reach a satisfactory temperature and add yeast immediately.
-Maintain a cool even temperature in the fermenter.
-Place the fermenter in a tray and wrap it in a blanket with an end in a container of water.
-Placing the fermenter on a concrete slab can also help to keep the temperature constant.
–Use a Brewing Thermostat and a fridge for optimum brewing conditions all year round.
Equipment needed for mead making:
– 4 Litre Pot
– Medium Funnel
– Siphon
– 2 x 5L Demijohns
– Airlock
– Bored Bung
– Solid Bung
-To make oak spirit use a 4-5 Litre wide neck glass jar, use around 200-300g of oak blocks or chips and 1 litre of vodka/neutral spirit. Soak for at least 14 days but the flavour intensifies the longer you leave the oak soaking. When ready, strain the oak out by passing it through filter wool in a funnel.

Short sales fail for a variety of reasons, but number one on the list is poor or no communication from the lender causing the buyer to get frustrated and terminate the contract.
An inexperienced or inept listing agent will make the process more difficult. Be sure to assess the background of the listing agent and their dealings in short sales before signing a listing contract. Do your homework and make sure you account for the overall likelihood the sale will be approved by the lender.
Also, make sure you account for the deficiency judgement (shortfall in paying off your loan in full) and any potential tax ramifications as a result of the sale. All of these items can delay the process and likelihood of your deal closing in a timely manner or at all.
It goes without saying short sales are like the wild west of real estate and things can get messy. The best advice I can offer is to leave yourself plenty of time and, more importantly, to lower your expectations. Being realistic will minimize stress and make you less likely to make an emotional decision in the end. I have seen short sale transactions that have lasted over a year, so they aren't for the faint of heart.

Customer Reviews
They're really pretty and comfy shoes. I only wish they run mid sizes because a 7.5 would fit me better than a 7. An 8 is just too big. Still happy with my purchase and satisfied with the customer service regarding returns.
Love them, they look sharp and are super comfy!
I love them so so so so much they are so comfortable and such nice quality I love everything about them and I love them with pink socks so I can copy YUNGBLUD and I just feel so 80s punk but definitely do remember for sure also I were a size 9.5 in vans and the 9 works perfectly
I love these! Got them on sale with the awesome discount. Super comfortable, stylish, goes with any kind of outfit.

The Queensland government will charter a 747 aircraft to fly hundreds of Silicon Valley investors and entrepreneurs to Brisbane, in an effort to attract the likes of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and Tesla's Elon Musk to a tech festival in May.
The move is designed to boost the profile of the Myriad festival, which was held for the first time in 2017, with more than 2000 attending.
Innovation Minister Leeanne Enoch said with 360 investors and entrepreneurs on board, the chartered Qantas flight from San Francisco to Brisbane would bring with it billions of dollars worth of potential.
"Those on board the flight from San Francisco will be representing billions of dollars in potential capital investment, and new business opportunities for Queenslanders."
She said Queensland-based entrepreneurs would also be on board the flight, giving them a precious window to network with leading Silicon Valley figures.
"The flight experience will provide those on board, including some of Queensland's own entrepreneurial talent, with 14 hours to network, collaborate, inspire and showcase our rapidly growing entrepreneurial ecosystem."
Opposition Shadow Treasurer Scott Emerson hit out the government for supporting the flight rather than focusing on cost of living issues affecting residents.
"Most Queenslanders out there, who are doing it tough and struggling to pay the bills will think its extraordinary that the state government is happy to pay these billionaires airfaires to come to Brisbane," he told reporters.
But Ms Enoch said the government, while sponsoring the event, would not pay directly for the charter flight, the cost of which will be covered by Qantas and the entrepreneurs.
Myriad co-founder Martin Tavani said one billionaire company founder has already signalled a willingness to sponsor enough seats to "basically cover the cost of the flight".
Fellow founder Murray Galbraith said while the festival would like to attract big names like Zuckerberg, he wouldn't be disappointed if they failed to take up the offer this time. noting that similar events like the SXSW conference in Texas had spent decades building their profiles.
"The invitation is there to Elon to Mark Zuckerberg, to all of these people, but this is a long, long term thing."

As a kid – and let's be honest, even now – I never had a tidy room for more than a day. I hate doing the dishes and I hate folding laundry. And you can forget about actual scrubbing and sweeping. It's just not fun, and my clothes are easier to find spread out on the floor than folded in a drawer anyway.
But living in a messy environment stresses me out.
Coming home to a sink full of bowls with oatmeal stuck to them makes me feel defeated. When I turn the corner to see an unmade bed with wrinkly, clean clothes in chaotic piles on every surface including the floor, I can't help but criticize my self-worth. I attempt to ignore the pile of dirty laundry that has accumulated in the two weeks it has taken me to do that last load while I turn on the shower. Surely, the place where I clean myself is clean, right? A clump of hair I had stuck to the wall during my last shower falls into the tub and joins a mass down the drain that will soon clog it. How am I allowed to even be a person?
So I begrudgingly clean and scrub and sweep and wipe until my apartment is habitable again. And somewhere in the process, the act of cleaning actually makes me feel better, too because I'm doing something kind for myself.
I like to think of self-care as treating yourself to the things you would want to treat your best friend to — an hour-long bubble bath, a hike on a sunny day, a sincere compliment or coming home to a clean apartment. Each activity fulfills a physical, emotional or mental need and the act of allowing yourself the time and space for that activity is an expression of self-love.
When my place is looking a little (or a lot) messy, I talk about the tasks ahead like they're things a friend needs my help with.
If it will make Rachel feel better, I'll do the dishes. I'll fold the laundry and put it away. I'll do anything it takes because I care about her.
My apartment doesn't need to look like a Pottery Barn catalog, but taking care of it is a way of taking care of myself so it's worth the effort.

Yesterday my parents, my dog Samson, and I took a little adventure up to the White Mountains. We wanted to do a short day hike up Mt. Monadnock for fun. My dad and I biked past the entrance on our bike trip and got lunch in Jaffrey a couple weeks back. We thought it would be a fun mountain to hike since it isn't super far away. So, we packed ourselves some hardy lunches and drove the 2 hours up to the mountain. Unfortunately, things didn't quite go as planned.
After driving into the parking lot and greeting the ranger, he told us that apparently dogs aren't allowed to hike up this mountain. WTF? Apparently Mt. Monadnock is a very popular hiking spot. He told some story about how in 2008 there were a bunch of dogs that hiked up the mountain and some of the owners didn't pick up after them, blah, blah, blah. Therefore, no dogs are allowed up this mountain. I've never heard of a mountain not being dog friendly, but apparently that's something I'll have to research next time I go hiking!
The ranger pointed us in the direction of another trail that was dog-friendly and we headed on over there. We didn't realize that this other "mountain" wasn't actually Mt. Monadnock until we got to the top. This other place was Pack Monadnock that only took us an hour to hike up, LOL! There were plenty of people with their dogs on this mountain and many others who shared similar experiences of being turned away from the other mountain.
Nonetheless, we still had a great time! I've felt a bit deprived this summer living in a place that doesn't have those beautiful mountain views. I used to take being able to see Mt. Mansfield and Camels Hump for granted since I grew up with those. Although things didn't go quite as planned today, it was still loads of fun.
On another note, I thought I'd share a funny story with you guys. I think I've mentioned that I'm a pretty competitive person. What can I say? It's hard to run races without that personality characteristic! Although I'm pretty good at hiding it or keeping it under control in situations that don't need to be competitive, I had a little bit of fun today.
I was doing an easy run on the Charles when all of a sudden this boat starts to pass me. It wasn't going all that fast, but just a bit faster than my own pace. For whatever stupid reason, I decided to race this boat. Let me just point out that I was definitely at a disadvantage. We were coming up to a curve and in track talk I was in the outside lane WITHOUT a staggered start. This boat probably had no idea that I was trying to race it, but I had a little fun before stopping at a water fountain and reminding myself that I should be taking my easy run easy.
Have you ever raced a boat? Gotten competitive in a stupid situation? Have you gone on any hikes recently?

The title "Journeys" refers to Marketa Jirouskova's main source of inspiration: a journey itself as a long, arduous travel in search of nature's highlights, in the footsteps of earlier explorers or following her own paths. The exhibit presents images of exotic birds and iguanas on isolated islands in the Pacific Ocean, penguins and polar bears with iceberg backdrops in Antarctica and the North Pole, and the highest mountains on Earth in the Himalaya. Jirouskova creates a wonderland composed of pristine uninhabited undisturbed places, difficult to leave for its beauty and harmony, where human traces are still non-existent or minimal. Jirouskova traveled to those remote destinations to create us evocative, almost painting-like, intimate portraits of our natural world. She hopes to inspire her public with respect, appreciation and admiration of world's nature worth preserving.

I've been quite into 4 channel quadraphonic format (the precursor to surround sound) for a while and I read that her track "Easy Evil" was the only one from her album "Cameo" to be mixed into such and included in a sampler album (as Howes would put..), but online, there's not much abundance of further information about the inclusion of her track into a particular sampler album outside a comprehensive Dusty discography book, let alone actually listening to a sample track of it. Perhaps the Dunhill sampler album was not well selling?
The quadraphonic format has been revived not long ago, though not as significant because, well, Dolby 5.1 or 7.1 Surround is now the industry standard for most audiovisual applications.
I think Geffen or whoever holds the rights to her ABC/Dunhill tracks, ought to have the tracks remixed into the old quad, or 5.1 for the DVD/Blu-ray audio if the Cameo multi-tracks are still around, but I figured it would be a bit of a niche since multi-channels aren't a norm in music listening. What are your thoughts?

We had a scintillating time last month, if you weren't there, you missed a treat! Our Managing Partner, Stephanie Scarborough, gave away so much free information. We can't even begin to monetize the value that was packed into her Kid's Protection Plan Seminar. If you're a parent of minor children, know someone with minor children or even know and/or parent adult children with special needs, this blog is for you. We believe in this subject so much, and the value it holds, that we had to circle back and highlight Stephanie's presentation from Saturday, January 27, 2018 at the Post Road public library in Alpharetta, Georgia.
We knew it would be a good day, when the turnout superseded our expectations. That alone tells us that people are getting more serious about tying up loose ends as it relates to their families and their estates. Our goal-to educate the local citizens about the importance of protecting your kids and assets, not only while they are physically here and able to care for them, but more importantly that everyone would have a solid, legally binding plan to protect your kids/assets in the event of an unexpected disability or death.
We must ask ourselves, who will take care of my children in the event I suddenly cannot? What if your preferred guardian lives in another state, who will care for your minors until they can get here? Who will stand in the gap as a short-term guardian while your permanent guardian goes through the legal process of being able to get physical and legal custody of your children? These are the things often left to chance, not because we do not love our kids, but because we didn't know; or we didn't act. We have no idea about the number of services and resources available to us, to help us do the very thing that matters most to us-protecting our family.
The truth is, time is not slowing down or waiting on any of us. We all must decide to act-now. Do everything in our power to ensure our children will still live, be healthy, happy and well taken care of even if we are not here to facilitate that experience ourselves. Start to think about who would best serve as long term and short-term guardians. What financial resources will we provide to assist our chosen guardian(s) in carrying out our wishes? Investing in a trust account to manage the logistics of our assets. Sure, it's hard to think about these scenarios, but it will be a lot harder on your kids if you didn't do this hard work, today.
A Basic Kid's Protection Plan may include:
Let us help you ensure that your children are protected in a time where it will matter most. Contact us, we are ready to help you tie up those potential loose ends. Let's talk and create a plan that is especially designed for you and your family. Attending one of our workshops or seminars could also make you eligible for special discounts. We know this has been on your to-do list, call us and let us help you check this off. We look forward to hearing from you!

Nice article! Thanks for sharing it!
After I was dx'd in 2005, just by MRI and short history, I had one of those tests to determine optic nerve transmission. Not painful, very boring, and for a long time I had to look at a red dot against a checkered background of black and white squares.
Years later my opthomologist started a test where I stare at a star in an electronic machine with each eye; it doesn't take long at all. My opthomologist said she was doing it as an extra test for glaucoma in addition to the pressure readings done.. After several times, she said I don't have glaucoma and it is probably indicative of my MS and it was still 15% under normal. So this test is a lot easier than the original one I had years ago. She was doing this every 6 months but now she repeated it at my yearly check up.
After reading some of the comments here, I don't think I would have wanted the evoked potentials test although it may be better and not invasive like a spinal tap. . Is this done because an MRI was not specific to diagnose MS? My MRI was pretty specific for diagnosis plus history that my daughter had been diagnosed three years before me. She had two specific relapses (I had one of them) and a couple MRI's and that was all the was needed for her diagnosis.
PS the opthomologist test I believe is called OCT.
My experience w/ the visual evoked potential diagnostic test was made MUCH worse by my insurance company. They would not allow me to stay longer in the hospital so I had to have it a while after a lumbar puncture after which you are cautioned to strictly remain in a horizontal (rather than upright) position in order not to get "the headache". I, of course DID get "the headache" which was only lessened by trying to stay "horizontal" even at work. This brutal headache was only resolved by returning after three days in awful pain only to undergo another lumbar puncture for a "patch" procedure where they drew blood and inserted it into the hole where the original puncture was performed. Hopefully the insurance companies are more knowledgeable and kinder now…
Reading these comments on Evoked Potentials leaves me speechless. The last test I had on the road to my MS diagnosis was the Evoked Potential muscle nightmare. This test was done at Mayo Clinic so I figured they are fairly adept at administering it. First off when the Neurologist told me I was needing the test I inquired as to the pain level I could expect. In her leaving the room she said ` It will be uncomfortable ` as she scurried away not leaving me any chance to have her to expand her analysis. Before this test I had to endure an EMG test in my legs twice. Once years ago for a different medical problem, then again when the Mayo PCP I needed to see for an eval before referred to Nero, insisted it is different here. Later found out she had a test EMG on her arm, and that`s what she based it off. Very painful and I had listed as a 9, on a scale of 10, with ten being moat painful. Well move over EMG, muscle Evoked Potential knocked you out of 9 so you are an 8. Evoked Potential in my legs was the most painful thing I have ever experienced. People here talking of hooked up to their head leaves me wondering why I had to endure test in my legs ?
I had that test done on my legs and have to have it again. It was one of the most painful things I have ever experienced. I had two unmedicated natural childbirths when I delivered my kids, and I think that test was way more painful than delivery. Who knows? Maybe I am making a big deal out of nothing, but if I take a Valium before the test will it bias the results?
Wow. Article brings back a funny visit to my Neurologist. Electrodes attached to MY FACE. OMG, when juice turned on my cheeks,mandible,nose were scrunched together sorta like squeezing out a round sponge full of water. She and I laughed together so much that even when I see her we on any occasion we both giggle!!
You did a fantastic job of explaining EP's. I am/was a neurodiagnostic tech and did EEG's, EP's and sleep studies. And then I was struck down with M.S. Just wanted to applaud you for this writing.
This was the first thing I had done after the eye doctor saw optic nerve damage.
My parents took me to the appointment and afterward took me to out to lunch. I looked at myself in the mirror and said no, no way I was going out into public with my hair standing on end all greased up. My sweet daddy told me I was beautiful, who was I to argue?
Walking around the buffet at the Chinese restaurant I ran smack into my old pastor. That was uncomfortable but nothing was hurt but my pride. Easiest test I had during my diagnosis.
That would be a interesting test to take, the only test I had was a MRI and some kind of eye/ brain wave test with the electrodes on your head. My neuro said with the 5 lesions on my brain and family history I didn't need any other tests. Potter
I've never even heard of this before. Loved learning about this one. Now I have yet another thing to ask my specialist about at my next appointment. Good piece, Devin. Thanks for writing.
Had the Evoked Potential back in the Spring of 1979 and was diagnosed right away. i DO remember those electrodes being attached to my legs and when I looked back saw my legs flapping around. My eyes searched the room looking for Dr. Frankenstein but I didn't see him or Igor !…..Still ambulatory at age 71 but slowing down; foot drop and left leg weakness. I have had the Pins & Needles since 1979…non-stop….24/7. After 39 years with MS I just tolerate the P&N…..but I would really enjoy a day without it.
I appreciate this article about Evoked Potentials. It was a scary process when I was going through it – especially because I had asked several questions, then my doctor told me to quit asking questions!! Needless to say, I never saw that doctor again!! BTW – there actually is a new blood test that will tell you quickly and accurately whether or not you have MS – alleviating the need for things like the EP and the Lumbar Puncture! It's called IsolateMS and it's through the IQuity biotech company in Nashville. Your doc has to order it (it's no new most docs don't even know about it yet) and as of now, insurance isn't covering it – but it's a definitive answer (90%+ accuracy) quickly (within 1 week).
I had an EVP in 2008 my electrodes were on my head ugh they made a mess getting them off. Flashing chequer board and just sitting still. No biggy. I had mine done as in 2000 i went blind on holiday and when i came back off holiday had another episode which was IGNORED by my local GP he put it down to the heat.
I went on to have eye issues until 2006 when i collapsed and went off sick. My eye issues blurry and pain etc on and off were put down to DRY eyes.
Anyway i had my first brain MRI in 2007 which was inconclusive because of my age.
Then i had further stuff going on so the neurologist wanted to check my optic nerve.
The results showed i had bilateral issues worse on the left eye but still a slowing in the right. Still no diagnosis of MS.
Over time fast forward until 2015 November i had another VEP test after having a colour screen test in my neurologists office which i failed apparently.
In December I had another attack of vision issues. Nothing from Nuero with results.
January 2016 finally got a letter off my neurologist to see me saw him in February.
My VEP test was positive for another episode of demyelination of the optic nerve, called optic neuritis and with the 3 different lesions they had found over the few years in different places in my spine, i was finally diagnosed with progressive MS.
Oh I had the LP. It showed O bands but the blood test alongside that showed inflammation which makes the result negative for MS.
Anyway the VEP test is the easiest test i think. I saw my MS nurse recently who did that colour chart thing again, and it showed my left eye is now not seeing colour correctly.
The VEP test for me is my friend as finally after 16 long years i got my label to sew on my jumper and I jokingly call mine the VEP SANDWICH LOL.
Thanks so much for sharing mrsaristotle! The gel used with the electrodes certainly does make a bit of a mess!
LOL tell me about it, in the end when i got home we had to cut some of it out i think it is my very strong italian hair didnt like it.
Its good though to share these things as the unknown can be scary but its nothing to be scared off. I loved your article it made me chuckle.
Have you had the muscle electrodes? Now that is another story lol.

If you are interested in the stars and celebrities of Edinburgh, you might just think about following the footsteps of one of the best-known crime novel authors in Great Britain – Ian Rankin. Rankin, who has just produced another No.1 bestseller in the UK with his new novel, The Complaints (2009), actually graduated from Edinburgh University in 1982 and wrote his first two novels as a post-graduate student there. When we met him at the University Library in September, the author of the popular Inspector Rebus series recommended Trainspotting by Irvine Welsh (1993) and Complicity by Iain Banks (1993) to the potential Edinburgh visitor. In fact, he jokingly warned the prospective traveller to Edinburgh not to read any of his books because they might put people off rather than attract them. Nevertheless, if you have already perused some or even all of Rankin's Rebus novels, you should consider taking part in one of the two hour rebustours with local actor Colin Brown. Most probably, this is going to throw a different light on Fleshmarket Close or other real locations you will discover. However, if you are more of a listener than a reader and all into music, Rankin has some promising tips for you in store as well. For the record-junkies among you, Rankin's selection of some second-hand vinyl stores on Canongate and Leith Walk might just be what you are looking for. Watch out, Movie-fans! Of course, there is something here for you, too: Ian Rankin is currently working on a film script to the novel Confessions of a Justified Sinner which takes place in 19th century Edinburgh.
If you are one of those people who still have not had enough goose bumps on one of the many ghost tours the city has to offer, sitting in Edinburgh's oldest cinema, the Cameo, with a serial killer only a few rows away could be just the right thing for you. On top of it all, if you ever wondered how to get a writing career started yourself (or if you are just addicted to coffee), drop in to Oxford Bar on Young Street or The Elephant House Café on 23 George IV Bridge. Grab a cup of tea, a pint of beer, a glass of Irn Bru or whatever else you would like and suck in the creative atmosphere. Who knows – you might just be able to catch a glimpse of Ian Rankin himself or any of his famous colleagues at work.Tags: curso24, Edinburgh, ian rankin, journalismus, sprachreise

The comedian rips apart the ignorance and inherent bias in Hannity's segment on Israel and Gaza
By Prachi Gupta, Salon
In his web series "The Trews," this week comedian Russell Brand watched "Hannity" so that you didn't have to, and ripped apart Fox News host Sean Hannity for extremely "childish" and biased coverage of the incredibly complicated Israel-Gaza conflict.
In response to a totally reasonable press release by the Council on American–Islamic Relations, which asked that American taxpayer funds not go towards killing innocent people in Gaza, Hannity wondered, "Why is America's largest Muslim so-called civil rights group showing sympathy to terrorists? Let's have a debate."
The debate, which is already not really a debate as Brand points out, then devolved into Hannity shouting at his guest from the Jerusalem Fund & Palestine Center, Yousef Munayyer. Munayyer was invited to offer his opinions, but Hannity was not interested in hearing them because they offered a more nuanced understanding of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
"Sean's not interested in truth," Brand concluded, saying, "Hannity is only interested pushing a particular perspective." (Salon)

Buffalo Braves 1970-71
Braves 1971-78
San Diego Clippers 1978-82
San Diego Clippers 1982-84
Los Angeles Clippers 1984-2015
Quick facts: Founded: 1971 Arena: Staples Center Division Championships: 2 (2013, 2014) NBA Titles: none Playoffs: 13 Best Season: 57-25 (2013-14) Worst Season: 12-70 (1986-87)What is a Clipper?
This question has left many of young NBA fans wondering, what exactly is a Clipper? Is it a pair of scissors or sheers? No! it is actually a ship and it has a specific connection to the port of San Diego.
Many Clipper style war ships were moored in San Diego during the 19th century and many were used during the California gold rush to haul gold back to the east coast of the United States via a long trip around South America. When the Braves relocated to San Diego in 1979 they chose the name Clippers because of this history.
Donald Sterling Incident
There was a lot of controversy about the sale as some felt that the NBA had acted too harshly against Sterling for one incident that was private. But at the same time, the NBA's action were likely done because of a long history of Sterling's racist and sexist antics as well as his franchise being the butt of many jokes about terrible sports franchises.
Stories of Barnes seem like something like Charlie Sheen's character in Two and a Half Men would do. Barnes kept loaded guns in his lookers, partied with hookers and did lines of cocaine at half-time. Things today that would get a player expelled from the NBA for good.

Former Fox News host Gretchen Carlson is suing the network's CEO and chairman Roger Ailes, alleging a pervasive practice of sexual harassment.
On Wednesday, ex-Fox News host Gretchen Carlson filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against chairman and CEO Roger Ailes , alleging she was fired last month because she refused to sleep with Mr Ailes.
Gretchen the host of "The Real Story with Gretchen Carlson" left the Fox network after 11 years at the expiration of her contract on June 23. She alleges that she was pushed out for two reasons
- She had spurn Ailes's sexual advances.
- She had complained about the treatment of women in the newsroom by their male co-workers.
The complaint accuses Ailes, 76, of telling the Gretchen Carlson last September.
"I think you and I should have had a sexual relationship a long time ago and then you'd be good and better and I'd be good and better,"
"Sometimes problems are easier to solve (that way)."
Mr Ailes would also ogle her in his office and ask her to "turn around so he could view her posterior, and would comment on "certain outfits (that) enhanced Carlson's figure" and make comments about her legs, according to the lawsuit, which was filed in New Jersey Superior Court.
Some of what he told her below
"I'm sure you can do sweet nothings when you want to," .
He would embarrassed her in front of people by allegedly telling her at an event that he'd "slept" with "three former Miss Americas but not with her."
Carlson said she tried to clear the air with Ailes in meeting in his office in September of last year, but the retaliation got worse after she rebuffed his advances.
"It's 2016, this has to stop," "Women should be allowed into the work place without their male bosses saying, 'You have to have sex with me.'" – Nancy Erika Smith, one of Carlson's lawyers
She's very brave as a media person standing up to someone as powerful as Roger Ailes – for herself and all women."
The attorney added that while the termination has been "devastating" and "potentially career-ending" for her client, Carlson is not suing the network itself.
The lawsuit implies that other women in the newsroom "who did not complain about harassment or rebuff his sexual advances" enjoyed better promotion and support.
Carlson joined Fox News in 2005, and interviewed "numerous political leaders and celebrities" over the years, including President Obama, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.
The suit says her problems started in 2009 while she was a co-host on the popular "Fox & Friends" morning show, and complained to brass that one of her co-hosts, Steve Doocy, "had created a hostile work environment by regularly treating her in a sexist and condescending way."
Doocy's "severe and pervasive sexual harassment of Carlson" included "mocking her during commercial breaks, shunning her off air, refusing to engage with her on air, belittling her contributions to the show, and generally attempting to put her in her place by refusing to accept and treat her as an intelligent and insightful female journalist rather than a blond female prop," the suit says.
After Ailes found out she'd complained, he called her a "man hater" and "killer" and that she needed to "get along with the boys."
"Sexual innuendo was always part of the Ailes playbook," says Smith.
Ailes then retaliated by decreasing her duties "and directing that she not be showcased at all," the suit says.
Carlson once walked off an Aug. 2012 broadcast of "Fox & Friends" in Aug. 2012 when co-host Brian Kilmeade launched into a sexist diatribe about women joining a previously all-male Navy band.
Ailes fired her from the show in 2013 "for her refusal to accede to sexual h,arassment and retaliation," the filing claims.
At the time of her departure, insiders told the Daily News, that the move was made to replace Carlson with the younger Elisabeth Hasselbeck, fresh off her stint from "The View."
Carlson was then given a 2-3 p.m. solo show for less pay, even though her workload increased. She "continued to work diligently" while achieving "solid and consistent ratings increases up until the day she was terminated" in June, the suit says.
In a statement Wednesday, Carlson said "Although this was a difficult step to take, I had to stand up for myself and speak out for all women and the next generation of women in the workplace."
The Suit
Papers shown below
"We believe that Mr. Ailes' behavior toward Gretchen, as described in the complaint, speaks volumes about what she had to endure," said another one of her lawyers, Martin Hyman. "Opposing sexism and rejecting unwanted sexual come-ons should never cost a woman her job or subject her to disparagement and emotional anguish."
Wednesday night Ailes blasted Carlson and her lawsuit.
"Gretchen Carlson's allegations are false. This is a retaliatory suit for the network's decision not to renew her contract, which was due to the fact that her disappointingly low ratings were dragging down the afternoon lineup," the news boss said in a statement.
"When Fox News did not commence any negotiations to renew her contract, Ms. Carlson became aware that her career with the network was likely over and conveniently began to pursue a lawsuit. Ironically, Fox News provided her with more on-air opportunities over her 11 year tenure than any other employer in the industry, for which she thanked me in her recent book. This defamatory lawsuit is not only offensive, it is wholly without merit and will be defended vigorously."

Definition / general
- Capillary electrophoresis (CAE) uses narrow bore capillaries with internal diameters below 100 mm
- The high surface area to volume of the tubes increases heat dissipation, allowing a higher electrical field to be used for electrophoresis, leading to an 8 to 10 fold faster separation time than slab gel electrophoresis
- The use of improve matrices, such as non cross linked polymer solutions, has allowed ~1000 bp to be read efficiently and accurately in as little as 2 hours
- The introduction of capillary electrophoresis was a milestone that allowed the sequencing of the human genome (Nucleic Acids Res 2007;35:6227)

Jan 14, 2012For anyone interesting in learning the background to the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution and its common law roots, this booklet is well worth the read. In fact, every man and woman in the British commonwealth of nations should read it to understand their political strength.
Sep 24, 2011I have heard Albert speaking in public about our country's Constitution and was impressed by his knowledge of the subject, which was a revelation to me, so when I saw his layman's guide I ordered a copy without delay. When it arrived I read it the same day cover to cover and an absolute gem it proved to be. It's a slim little book which succinctly explains how our nation's constitution and laws evolved from the time of Alfred the Great, and have been preserved, and handed down by our ancestors for our benefit. It covers all this in digestible form like the good historical books at school used to. In fact a copy ought to be held in every school library and it should be included in school curriculum as a navigational aid into our nation's Constitution, and the true role of the monarch, parliament, and of course ourselves the common people, in our governance - it's quite different from the way our rather shallow politicians of today appear to portray it.

text: The beleaguered biotech sector was under pressure again on Tuesday. The iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF IBB, -1.28% was off 6.4%, and looking at its worst one-day decline since Aug. 4, 2011, according to FactSet data. The embattled biotech sector, which had enjoyed three sessions of gains until a drop on Monday, has been under pressure since presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, criticized the high price of specialty drugs. The sector also had been one of the best performers during the stock-market bull run, leaving many participants calling it overvalued and predicting a precipitous fall. Tuesday's biotech slump was weighing on the broader Nasdaq Composite Index COMP, +0.05%, which was down 54 points, or 1.1%--making it the worst performer on the day of the main three stock indexes.

Solid-State Future Fridge
[The following is an exact transcript of this podcast.]
Ever been woken up by the sound of the refrigerator compressor kicking on? Well, such clumsy heat exchange units featuring long metal coils may be on their way out. Because Penn State scientists are investigating the possibility of solid-state refrigerators that take advantage of electric fields to exchange heat.
The researchers work with what are called ferroelectric polymers. When you apply an electric field to these substances, their internal structure goes from random to highly organized. And that makes the material colder. Turn off the electricity and the stuff sucks heat back in.
In the August 8th issue of the journal Science, the researchers report an electrically induced temperature change of over 22 degrees Fahrenheit. Throw a heat exchanger into the mix and repeatedly zapping the polymers with electricity could make it possible to heat or cool a space over a wide range of temperatures. Before you get a solid-state fridge, though, look for electronics applications. The polymers could cool circuit boards, making it possible to jam more electronics closer together, leading to smaller devices.
